Slow opening of files on DFS

I built a Windows 2008 R2 SP1 VM server, installed DFS and created a namespace. I then added a folder and moved data from a CIFS share that was near capacity to free up space. Everything I have mentioned so far was just to alevaite the fact that
the CIFS share was almost full. I built this server as a temp solution until I got the hardware in to build a new dedicated server for DFS/Storage. I have built the new Windows 2008 R2 SP1 physical server and also made it a namespace server.
The performance of this server is
Phenomenal. All the storage is local to the box as I am trying to consolidate all the shares around the network. I replicated the share from the temp server to the new server and removed the referral from the old server. I then copied
a few new shares over to the new server and added a folder for each (no replication for these). I then moved the home drives to DFS. Everything has been going well for a few weeks. Yesterday users started reporting slow opening of files,
specifically Excel and Word but I noticed PDFs opened slow also. This issue currently only affects Windows 7 users but only a handful. The nic, cpu and memory on the physical server have very low utilization. I have been unable to isolate
the exact issue but if I point the users to the
\\server\share, the files open VERY fast. I did notice that when I right-clicked on a mapped DFS drive, the DFS tab showed the status as Unreachable. I flushed the cache on the client and it went to OKay but file opening is still slow.
After some testing it appears to take almost exactly 50 seconds to open a file every time. I am going to be away from the office for a few days so I went ahead and changed all the DFS mapped drives to point to
\\server\share for now as I will not get it resolved before i leave. I also scoured the internet for resolutions and looked at all the related topics that were presented when I typed the title of this thread.
I installed DFSUTIL on a few of the Windows 7 computers experiencing the slowness and the referrals look good. Every test through DFSUTIL looks fine.
Any recommendations would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks

I found the self-inflicted issue. I have a dedicated DFS NameSpace server with 66TB of storage. The drive that has this attached storage has a folder I created call DFS where all the new DFS folders are pointed. At this point I should have
reviewed the drive permissions closer. The default permissions on the drive includes the local USERS group which has special permissions. The first few shares I moved over already had authenticated users - Modify so all was well. I then moved
the home folders over and relaized that the local users allowed everyone to view everyone elses home drive. In a kneejerk reaction I removed the USERS group from the root of the drive which no longer allowed users to access the
\\domain.com\namespace because the DFSRoots folder is also on the same drive. I guess that since they didnt have access they eventually defaulted back to
\\servername\namespace which caused the delay???
I added the permissions back under the namespace folder and only applied to that folder. Users can now access the namespace quickly. At this point I am not sure what the permissions should be for the root drive. So now my question is:
1. If I am doing to dedicate a drive to DFS, what should the root permissions be on the drive? The drive will contain a folder E:\DFS as a root folder for all the shares and another folder named E:\DFSRoots (created by DFS with the default drive
changed from C: to E:) which will obvioulsy hold the namespace.
2. If a user would lose permissions to the dfs namespace (as they did in my case) how were they eventually able to access the file after the 50 second delay?
Thanks

SharePoint 2010 and PowerPoint 2010: Open PPTX File in Edit Mode and Open PPSX in in Slide Show Mode

I have the following issue while opening PowerPoint PPTX file and PPSX from the Document ID link provided by SharePoint 2010.
Issue
Initially when I opened PPTX file from the DOC ID link from SharePoint 2010, it is opening up in Slide Show mode which is not how we want it to be.
For PPSX, it is opening in Slide Show mode which is what we wanted.
Thus, I did some research online and found this article at support.microsoft.com/kb/q299824 which requires some modification to the Registry of the client machine.
I did the change as follows
Open Registry
Look for “Computer\HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\PowerPoint.Show.12”
Set BrowserFlags value to a
After the change, PPTX is opening in Edit Mode in PowerPoint which is correct but PPSX is also opening in Edit Mode in PowerPoint which is not correct
This issue only occurs if I open the document from the Doc ID link in SharePoint. If the documents are downloaded, it will not have this issue.
Questions
Can I set PPTX to open in Edit Mode and PPSX to open in Browser Mode?
Is this fixed as in if I change the registry setting it will affect both file types?
Is there other ways I can achieve opening PPTX in Edit and PPSX in Browser Mode?
[Environment]
My Client machine is running on I.E 9 and Office 2010.
Thank you.

Hi,
To make the PPTX file open in Edit mode and PPSX file open in Slide Show mode, I recommend to edit the registry key HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\PowerPoint.Show.12 to 8.
I tested the scenario in my environment with changing the key value to 8, after that PPTX file opened in Edit mode and PPSX file opened in Slide Show mode.
Best regards.
Thanks

DW won't open PNG file to edit in Fireworks

I have a complex Fireworks file inserted as part of my html page. I'm trying to edit and update it from Dreamweaver, but it will not open the file in Fireworks.
It's a png file that has been updated from an older version of Fireworks, but I've done a save-as and re-exported the slices and html, then re-inserted it into the page. It still will not open the file in Fireworks.
As a test, I created a new png file, exported it, inserted it into the html page, then tried to edit it in Fireworks. And that does allow me to edit, click done, and then the changes show up on the html page. So it's something with my original file, but I can't figure out what it might be.
Does anyone have any suggestions on how to get this working?
Any help will be greatly appreciated.
Thanks.

Can you open images normally in Photoshop Elements? I would recommend including this information as well as which verson of iPhoto and Mac OS you are using to the Photoshop Elements forum. It might also possibly be a problem with iPhoto but the users in the Photoshop Elements forum should better be able to determine where the problem lies.

Can't open iphoto file to edit in Elements 10 even though external editor is set

Right clicking on iphoto file, selecting "edit in external editor" resullts in spinning beach ball. Each attempt at opening a file initiates a reopening of Elements even though it is already opened.

Cannot open VI file in edit mode.

I cannot open a VI project that I was working on. Every time I try to open the file it gives me a message that "not enough memory to complete this operation".
This is a large project and I need to be able to access the block diagram.
This happens when I try to open it in edit mode.
Thanks.

Minguccio,
I've done some poking around and may have found some useful information. This error will ocurr if you have too many (and I mean a ton) of controls on the front panel. I haven't heard of this error since LabVIEW 5.1 though and we've upgraded the number of controls you can have on your front panel since then. However, try deleting some controls from your front panel to see if this helps out.
My investigation also lead me to tcp errors. Are you using tcp\ip anywhere in your programming? I found this discussion that may help out if that's the case.
Let us know what you find.

How to open sharepoint files in edit mode using associated link?

Hi All,
We are trying to use the URL links available through SSM to open documents we hold on SharePoint. These will be the action plans for the risks we are entering as KPIs. The aim is to established a one-to-one link between the risk KPI and the risk action plan as this is a fundamental reason behind using SSM for Risk.
However, when we enter the SharePoint URL into the SSM admin screen, clicking the link from SSM UI opens up the file as an internet explorer page which can not be edited and saved back to SharePoint. We did find a way to get through My Network Places to over write the file, but this only works if you have previously opened and edited and saved the file from SharePoint and requires lots of navigation by the user and is therefore not an appropriate solution.
Is there any way we this can be achieve? Appreciate your replies. Thanks in advance.
Regards,
David

Hi Bob,
Thanks for your reply. What I meant was when we put the UNC into SSM as a link in the URL box, SSM does not use the address it is given, instead it adds a http:// back in front and once again fails when opening the file in sharepoint.
For example:
SharePoint folder view used in test:
http://wccportal/resources/performance/risk/Risk%20Action%20Plans/Forms/AllItems.aspx?RootFolder=%2fresources%2fperformance%2frisk%2fRisk%20Action%20Plans%2fDOR&FolderCTID=&View=%7b84123F22%2d74F2%2d41B9%2d918C%2dFF23DAE35EB3%7d
Excel UNC link to folder
wccportal\resources\performance\risk\riskactionplans\DOR
SSM UNC Link - SSM changes the address to include http:// and also removes other \ breaks and adds in numbers and symbols.
Is there a way to stop SSM converting the local address back into a web address?
Thanks,
David

Slow opening of files

When I open a raw file the first time I open CS5, it takes about 30 seconds. Subsequent files are quick. Has anyone had this problem?

From memory I believe there were a few things that changed, both in Windows 7 and Office 2010 that can have an impact on the time taken to open a document over a network connection. They mostly relate to additional protections designed to scan the document
for anything dodgy before opening, but in the case of Office, since it does the scan over the network it takes longer to open a network document than older versions, or than opening it locally.
There's a long thread discussing this here
http://social.technet.microsoft.com/Forums/office/en-US/46c082ad-2455-4120-beea-c69ff2219ed9/word-2010-slow-opening-files-on-network-share?forum=officeitproprevious which is worth a look. There are several things which may cause this (depending on your
setup), so hard to judge what it might be in your case.
Since you say that copying the files over the network works correctly this sounds like the issue. Presumably once on the local machine you also don't see any speed issues opening the documents on the newer setups?

If I make work in Premiere CC but lose access to CC, do I lose the ability to open the file and edit my work?

I'm currently using Premiere CS6. Premiere CC looks appealing in terms of the updates, but not the payment model. If I can't pay for CC for a while, or switch to another program one day, will I lose the ability to open any of my Premiere CC files? It's shocking how often I go back to an old project that was made in an ancient program that I no longer use, but because I forever own that software, I'm always able to open the file up and make whatever changes necessary so I can bring the file into a more current program. Is this workflow lost if I lose access to CC? If this is the case, I may have to stick to CS6 just because I have the disks and know I'll always be able to install the programs and access my files.

New PROJECT files, and SOME data files (such as InDesign ???) will not open in earlier programs... industry standard files (such as JPG) will open in any program

Can't Open ANY files to edit in Photoshop Elements 10

I have used Photoshop Elements 10 for about two years and had no problems. Suddenly today it won't open ANY files. Not from the desktop, and not even a blank file to start with. It acts like it is going to, I can choose the sizing for a blank file, but then nothing happens. Any ideas?? Thanks!

Quit the editor then restart it while holding down ctrl+alt+shift (command+option+shift on a mac). Keep the keys down till you see a window asking if you want to delete the settings file. You do.

Very slow opening PDF files from Windows Explorer

When I open a file from within Acrobat X Standard - whether through File>Open or the recent files list - the file opens very quickly. When I open a PDF file from Windows Explorer, it takes 10 seconds or longer for the file to open. Is this an Acrobat issue or a Windows/system problem? (I don't experience the same delay when opening Word and Excel files from Windows Explorer.)

I had to install adobe reader, but PDF's used to display just fine with IE, any idea what happened ?
Windows 8.1 pro.
thx

Fireworks super slow opening pdf files

I am opening the first page of a bunch of pdf files and then batching them into thumbnails. This is relatively quick when I do it on my laptop but when I try and do this on my desktop, it almost takes 20 minutes per file to open. I can open these same files in photoshop in about 5 seconds.
Any ideas why Fireworks on one machine would be slower? Same version my desktop has a little more RAM so it should be faster if anything. Rebooted the computer and still super slow without any other apps running.

I am brand new to Photoshop Elements. I cannot even open my file to edit it!

I am brand new to Photoshop Elements. I have Photoshop Elements 11. I cannot do anything! I need to open my jpgs and cannot. I need to edit them!

You mean there's nothing at all in the Open window that appears? What operating system, and is this PSE 11?

Trying Trial Version: How do I open a file to edit?

I managed to do this somehow a week ago. Now the program only recognizes files I have previously imported. It will not allow me to search folders on drive to select individual photos. At present, The only file folders it recognizes are those I initially imported. It seems that it is necessary to import all files on my drive into library before being able to open them. I want to select individual files to test L3 on, not download my entire photo collection into a library I may never use after the L3 trial is over. I must say that it is very confusing not to have simple "open/close/save/save as" file commands.

As an addition to Lee Jay's explanation:

In the Lightroom import dialog, you can choose the folders you want to import from in the left hand source panel. Click the "Import" button and you get presented with this dialog:

There is no need to import your entire photo collection. You only need to import the images you want to work on. You can either do this by clicking "Import" and navigating to the folder where the image(s) reside, or you can drag an image into the LR main window using explorer, which will open an import dialog with just that image selected for import.
