Slow to save when working on network

Hey,
I am using Dreamweaver 5.5, and are experiencing very slow save times. From I hit ctrl + s and until the document is saved it took 5-6 seconds on Vista, and 2-3 seconds on Win7. Other developers who are working on the same network and files (and identical machines), but use Eclipse or simply Notepad experience no delay at all.
So, can someone explain to me why Dreamweaver is taking its sweet time to save documents, and what do I do to make it save like it actually should? I code css and html for the most part and therefor do a lot of saving, so this is making my hair turn grey
Regards,
Morten

I am having the same issue.. my work around was to create a duplicate and rename it, then make edits to it. It should save fine. The save as function seems to be the problem.

Adobe Bridge permission issues when working with network account

We have some users using Adobe Bridge CS3, CS4 and CS5.
They are using Bridge to browse arround the file server.
I have ACL's so the users can have full access using the Finder, deleting, making folders etc.
Users are logged in to their AD account with their home folder synced to a Mac OS X server 10.6.4.
Unless they are Posix owner of a folder they can't make changes or nothing using Bridge.
If they log in to a local account on a Mac and then manually connect to a share on the same server all is fine with Bridge. They can make folders, delete files etc etc.
Any ideas?
I know Adobe made it easy for themselfs years ago by simply stating it is not supported to work on a server using any Adobe app.

As you said Adobe washed their hands of the matter and as any business customer is almost certainly going to use a server, and as Adobe products are so expensive pretty much only business customers can afford them, this is totally inexcusable.
I had a similar network login related problem with Acrobat Pro in version 7.0 which after +two years+ (no exaggeration) was eventually fixed in Acrobat Pro 8.1. Unfortunately it was then broken again in Acrobat Pro 9.0. Based on my experiences with Acrobat Pro and due to a totally different reason (nothing to to do with using Adobe SW) I found that when I switched from using AFP for network home directories to instead using NFS, my problems with Adobe software and network login accounts went away.
So, it might be worth your thinking about switching to using NFS for home directories as a workaround.
Adobe have become even worse than Microsoft for their software. They use a variety of sucky installers instead of Apple's free Installer (Microsoft have switched to using Apple's Installer), they use product activation, they are even worse than MS Office at working with servers. The only redeeming fact Adobe has is that their Mac and Windows products are mostly equivalent unlike Microsoft who still cripple their Mac software.

Slower internet connection when connection wireless network

Currently using a Linksys WRT54GL wireless broadband (firmware v4.30.5) router in conjunction with a Thomson Speedtouch 546i ADSL router (ISP provided).
My problem is that when I connect to the internet over the wireless network I experience a much slower internet connection in comparison with when I use a tp-cable.
Tested with various online "speed-tests" (I know they are not to be trusted, but they do give a basis for comparison):
Over wireless network : ca.6000kbits/sec.
Direct cable from pc to router (tested on both routers):12-13000kbits/sec.
Hope anyone has any idea what the problem may be, and any help is greatly appreciated.

Change the beacon to 50 ....and reduce the RTS and the fragmentation by 40 each.....these options are found under the advanced wireless settings...
Also make sure that u have the latest drivers installed for the Wireless NIC.

"Save" not working on network drives in Lion?

Hey everyone. Ran into an odd issue yesterday.
We have a user at one of our graphics locations that recently upgraded to a new iMac with 10.7 since her old machine died. They have multiple network drives that they use. These are windows 2003 R2 servers.
On 10.6 if they had a PDF open in Acrobat or a Quark job open (one that they opened from the server)... they could just do a command + s and save the file to the same location. Now, when they do a command + s it brings up the save as window and they have to navigate back to the folder where the original file was stored. In some instances, there are so many jobs and multiple versions of the job for a customer, that can take a long time to navigate back.
Is there a quick setting to turn this off or is this something new that was implemented in 10.7 that they need to deal with?

I'm afraid you hit it on the head. This is indeed one of the "new features" in the Lion version of OS X. I do not personally know of a workaround for this.
Hope this helps

Illustrator missing links when working on network drives

Hi everyone,
I've been experiencing this problem since several versions ago. Is only that now has become more apparent since our team have started to work collaboratively in the same files. Let me explain the problem.
If I have an Illustrator file on my local drive with several images linked everything works fine. Now if I move that file (and its linked images) to a network drive which is shared by the entire team and I open the file every thing is in place as long as I'm the last person that saved the file. If a teammate open the file I've just saved in he or she computer a prompt for missing links is shown. Once the missing images are re-linked he or she can work normally and if they close the file it won't prompt a missing links message the next time he or she open the file. But if another teammate open the file from his or her computer the message shows again.
It is as if Illustrator save the paths relatively to each computer rather than to the network drive where the links sit. This behavior is really annoying since it make collaborative work a pain.
Do anyone know a fix or at least a workaround for this? (embedding images instead of linking them is not a solution since we work with large files on huge projects).
Thanks in advance!

Well is not real time collaboration. It is more like you say, separate people sometimes end up working on the same files. This workflow is great and works flawlessly. The real problem are the linked assets (either images or others AI files placed inside a document). Each time a team member opens a file he or she need to re-link everything and it keeps correctly linked as long as he/she that saves changes to the file. The next person who open that file will need to re-link assets again.
It is as is Illustrator were unable to remember the path of links in shared drives but only in local ones.
It is not a deal breaker but certainly is quite annoying.

Slow program execution when on home network

Can anyone help? My Satellite Pro A60 runs on my office network and all is well but when I connect it to my home wireless network any program (and it doesn't matter which) takes about 1 minute to open, once the program is open that program will work fine and speedy. If I eject the wireless aerial all is fine and all programs open up fast. This delay occurs for ANY program that you care to open - even Solitare!!

Hi
It will be interesting to know if this happen just at the beginning or all the time while WLAN is activated. If this happen just at the beginning it can be possible that the unit search automatically for some network folders or even printers. Because of this the opening of the different applications can take a longer time.

You are stuck with giving PS less than 70% of the RAM resources or else you will starve computer and it may crash.
And if you run any other programs at the same time it takes more computer resources to keep everything running.
If running huge files you don't have many options. It may work better in CS5 or less as seems like every new version takes more horsepower, and CS6 sends a lot of work to the video card.

Excel file very slow to save - but only for one user! Why?

The problem ...
I have an excel spreadsheet that I share with my partner, i.e. another user on my Mac. The file works just fine for me, but is very slow to save when my partner uses it. Save time for me is about 3 seconds, for my partner about 45 seconds. The problem only seems to be with this one file, and the slow save time is driving her nuts! (I'm not able to upload the file as it contains confidential info).
The file is about 225kB with about 6 worksheets and some macros. It’s stored in a folder below the standard OSX ‘shared’ folder. Both users have identical permissions on these folders and this file.
What have I tried already? Re-saving the file in a different place, renaming it, re-creating it by copying the contents to a blank file, repairing permissions on my partner’s user account, copying excel .plist files from my user to hers, deleting her .plist file & creating a new one. None of these have worked.
System details ... 2.8GHz I5 iMac (late 2010 vintage), 8GB memory, OSX 10.6.8 (Snow Leopard). Excel for Mac 2011 v14.2.3 (auto updates on & all installed I believe)
Any suggestions would be gratefully received.

On the problem Mac...
Open Console in Utilities & see if there are any clues or repeating messages when this happens.

Very slow responce when working with Office file on DFS-Share

Very slow responce when working with Office file on DFS-Share
We have implemented the following configuration
Domain level Windows 2000. Two member servers with Windows Server 2008 R2, sharing the same DFS namespace with, at the moment, one folder target called Home.
Users complaining that the access to different MS Office files is very slow. Even creating a new MS Word document using right click context menu takes up to 4 minutes to open. Saving, for example, one singe Excel sheet takes also few minutes.
Tested with both, MS Office 2007 and MS Office 2010. Makes no difference. When using Office 2010 you can see the message like contacting:
\\DomainName\Root\Home\UserName. Other files like TXT, JPG or PDF are not affected.
What makes the thing really weird is the fact, that the behavior described above can absolutely change after client machine being rebooted, suddenly everything becomes very fast and this condition can revert back again just after the next
reboot.
Considerations until now:
1. This has nothing to do with the file size. Even tiny files are affected.
2. AD Sites are configured correctly and the client workstations see themselves in the correct sites.
3. This is not an Office issue. If I map my folder target not as DFS, but directly as shared network drive
\\ServerName\Root\Home\UserName , everything functions as expected
What makes me suspicious: when using f.e. TCPView to monitor connections, I can see, that each time I make any operation on an office file, there will be a connection established to one of the domain controllers, sometimes to remote ones,
located in other countries. But on the other side, even if the connection is established to the nearest DC, operations are still very very slow!
Just forget to say. All clients are Windows 7
Thanks to all who respond.

Dear all,
sorry for the delayed reply. The problem has been solved now and since September 19<sup>th</sup>. everything is functioning as expected.
What was done:
Deleted replication targets excepting the initial ones
Carefully recreated folder targets
Deleted and recreated replication groups
Disabled SNP features on both namespace servers
Created EnableTCPA registry entry
Checked that the following Updates are installed

Additional things to try.
Try this first. Turn Off your iPad. Then turn Off (disconnect power cord for 30 seconds or longer) the wireless router & then back On. Now boot your iPad. Hopefully it will see the WiFi.
Go to Settings>Wi-Fi and turn Off. Then while at Settings>Wi-Fi, turn back On and chose a Network.
Change the channel on your wireless router (Auto or Channel 6 is best). Instructions at http://macintoshhowto.com/advanced/how-to-get-a-good-range-on-your-wireless-netw ork.html
Another thing to try - Go into your router security settings and change from WEP to WPA with AES.

Photos/videos in the Camera Roll are not synced. Photos/videos in the Camera Roll are not touched with the iTunes sync process. Photos/videos in the Camera Roll can be imported by your computer which is not handled by iTunes. Most importing software includes an option to delete the photos/videos from the Camera Roll after the import process is complete. If is my understanding that some Windows import software supports importing photos from the Camera Roll, but not videos. Regardless, the import software should not delete the photos/videos from the Camera Roll unless you set the app to do so.
Photos/videos in the Camera Roll are included with your iPhone's backup. If you synced your iPhone with iTunes before the videos on the Camera Roll went missing and you haven't synced your iPhone with iTunes since they went missing, you can try restoring the iPhone with iTunes from the iPhone's backup. Don't sync the iPhone with iTunes again and decline the prompt to update the iPhone's backup after selecting Restore.

Table contained in a topic causes slow response when working with source

I am using RoboHelp V8.0.2 (I have applied the two fixes available from the Adobe product site).
Here is my issue:
I am documenting a product that has over 1,500 metrics.
I am trying to make a list of 1,077 metrics in one topic (all the metrics are of the same "type" so they are grouped together).
The table presenting these metrics has two columns, a Field Name column and a Description column.
There is not a lot of text within the table - most of the explanations and calculations are defined outside the table.
When I have more than about 400 table rows, the response time working with the topic in source is just horrible.
It took 3 minutes to open the topic in source, another 3 minutes to move the table over .425in from margin.
When I try to close the project, it gets hung up.
Has anyone else run into a problem working with tables within a topic?
I had a similar response time issue with V8.0.0 in general when I first installed it.
Once I installed the two fixes, that problem was (for the most part) eliminated.
I think the second fix specifically addressed response time issues when working in source.
I am going to try this on one of my other writer's machine to see if it is the age of my computer.
My computer setup is:
Dell Precision work station with an Intel Xeon 2.40GHZ processor and 2MB of RAM.
I am using Windows XP Professional 5.1.26 Service Pack 3.0.
I have a 110 GB hard drive with 18 GB available.
As always - thanks for any insight or information.
Michael F Weart

Hi Michael.
Interestingly the maximum number of rows you can use when you create a table via the Table > Insert > Table menu item is 100. That said, I've just created a 500 row table and whilst it is slower than a smaller table it is OK. I am also using RH 8.0.2 but on a higher spec PC.

Win7-64 Photoshop CC blank Save As dialog, then crash, when working with video / frame animations

Hi, I recently updated to CC from CS6 and am having issues when working with PSDs containing video layers, or are set up as frame animations: When attempting to Save As, the dialog will be completely blank except for the Save and Cancel buttons.   If I press cancel, then return to Save As, CC then often crashes.
Here is the Error Event from Event Viewer:
Faulting application name: Photoshop.exe, version: 14.0.0.0, time stamp: 0x5176451b
Faulting module name: MediaCoreIF.DLL, version: 7.0.0.0, time stamp: 0x51573a21
Exception code: 0xc0000005

Faulting module path: C:\Program Files\Adobe\Adobe Photoshop CC (64 Bit)\MediaCoreIF.DLL
Report Id: db6d5f8f-0a0c-11e3-9df9-0026b9cc01d1
So far I am only having these issues if I have been working with video layers and then frame animations. Frame animations in particular seem to cause instability as I can often work with video layers all day without a problem. Then if I import video frames to layers, or open a PSD containing a frame animation, the Save As may not necessarily work.
Sometimes closing and restarting Photoshop will allow me to save again, but then sometimes a whole system reboot is required. It is only temporary though.
I am not running antivirus software or other apps aside from what starts at boot.

Frustrating that this thread has petered out, since I'm having the exact same issue. Did you ever find a way to improved stability?
Also of note, the issue followed me across machines. Two weeks ago I purchased a new machine, figured if that didn't solve the problem nothing would... It didn't. :\
The only similar factors are that the machines both are 64bit Windows 7 (a fresh OEM install on the new box) and have nVidia-brand graphics cards. (Again, though - not the SAME graphics card, picked up a new one with the new machine.) No drive cloning was involved: this is completely new hardware, a fresh factory install of Windows 7, different antivirus (went from AVG to Avast), and new download of Photoshop CC from CreativeCloud.
Looks like our event details are quite similar, too.
