Sluggish and then (Not Responding) in RH 8 -- what are the lilo files?

RH 8 has had severe performance problems with a particular Help Project for the past few days:
like 3 or 4 words behind my typing.
not even opening a topic if I click on it
not closing any of the open topics when I click the X in the topic tab
Today when it quit working altogether and sent a log file off to Adobe, I peeked into the content before it was sent. I'm using version 8.0.0.203
Further, a temp directory has 1.35 mb in 178 files all of which read lilo<7-digit number>, all of which were generated today. I know because yesterday I cleaned out my temp directories...including thousands(?) of lilo1515548 files, and today, with virtually no "work" accomplished (outside of publishing to a different server location), I have a whole new crop. The guts of these files is machine code (squiggles, with telltale references to ColdFusion, JobReady, RoboHelp,RoboInfo,FreeHand, FrameMaker,Homesite,LiveCycle,Flashcast,PostScript etc.). The only Adobe product I have installed* and am using is RoboHelp 8. It makes me wonder...what's going on with RH? Are there product updates I don't know about?
*except, of course Adobe Reader, but I'm not using that.
Does RH 8 'get sick' (I am working on a project I created with a try-b4-u-buy version of RH 7. Is this causing the hiccup?
I found PeterG's suggestion to add the BaseCSS_res.dll to my RH ...\RoboHTML\en_us folder. And that helped A LOT! But I want to know how to address the lilo files that are growing like cancer in my temp folders.
PS: I cross posted this because the first and only Adobe hit for 'lilo' was in the InDesign SDK. So I posted there first. But, since I'm not using that product nor doing SDK stuff, I'm adding this to the RH user group.

Hi there
Where are your projects when you are working on them? Have you applied the patches to version 8? (There have been two released)
If you say your projects are on a local area network drive, there's your issue. Move them to your local C drive and stand in awe of the speed improvement. (not to mention reliability)
Cheers... Rick

I downloaded the latest iOS7 to my iPad and then the screen went blank and would not respond. I have tried pressing the two buttons together and briefly get the Apple logo but still can not restart, the logo disappears. I have tried connecting to my iMac to restore the iPad but the device does not show up (I have an old iMac). What else can I do?

You need to be running Snow Leopard 10.6.8 at the very least in order to sync your iPad with iTunes so you could update your Mac, if it can be updated, and if you care to do so.
If that's not an option, you will have to find someone that can restore the device for you with their computer running iTunes or make an appointment at an Apple Store and ask them to restore the device for you.
I hope that you have an iCloud backup, because you will lose everything on the device when it is restored.
Snow Leopard can still be purchased in the U.S. Apple Online Store.

Also, I would not give up on the reset technique....holding down on the sleep and home buttons at the same time until the Apple logo appears. It takes about 10-15 seconds and sometimes just a little longer to get the logo to appear.

It simply stays on the same screen image, and does not respond to anything. When I plug it into itunes, there is no indication of its presence.
The ipad's clock has also stopped.
eek

Try a reset:
Hold the Sleep and Home button down for about 10 second until you see the Apple logo.

I just purchased an extreme. I have an express. The sales guy recommended setting up a hot spot with the express and use the extreme as a base station. What does he mean and how do I do this? What are the advantages?

I just purchased an extreme. I have an express. The sales guy recommended setting up a hot spot with the express and use the extreme as a base station. What does he mean and how do I do this? What are the advantages? How do I set this up?????

I think he means to set up the main extreme as the main router or "main base station", and then use the express to "extend" the network.
You can look up the manual for your express here for more details:
http://support.apple.com/manuals/
Extend the range of your network by adding AirPort Express to your existing AirPortExtreme or AirPort Express wireless network (this is called a Wireless DistributionSystem, or WDS). "
Extending the Range of an Existing AirPort Extreme or
AirPort Express Network
You can extend the range of an existing AirPort Extreme or AirPort Express wirelessnetwork by setting it up in a WDS. Wireless computers can connect to the network andshare the Internet connection, share files, and play network games. If you connect yourAirPort Express to your home stereo, computers on your wireless network can useAirTunes to play music on the stereo from iTunes. If you connect a USB printer to yourAirPort Express, all of the computers on the network can print to it.
n Open the AirPort Setup Assistant on a Macintosh, or the AirPort Express Assistant on acomputer using Windows XP. Follow the onscreen instructions to extend the range ofyour AirPort Extreme or AirPort Express network.
Note: Extending the range of a network using WDS may reduce overall networkperformance.

What are the "other" files on the hard drive and how can I reduce them

Advice please - what are the "other" files on my hard drive and can I reduce or clear them - currently taking up over 90 gig of disk space

I believe "Other" is primarily System and System-related files.

The notepad app says waiting and will not respond. No other apps are waiting. I have rebooted the iPad to no avail

My notepad app is greyed out and is labelled waiting. It will not respond. No other apps appear to be waiting. I have tried rebooting to no avail. Any suggestions?

Try this:
Log out of the iTunes Store on your device:
Settings>iTunes & App Store...tap your Apple ID, then select "Sign Out"
Reset your device:
Device Reset (won't affect settings/data/music/apps/etc)
1. Press and hold (& continue to hold) BOTH the Sleep/Wake button & the Home button.
2. Continue to hold BOTH (ignoring any other messages that may show) until you see the Apple logo on the screen.
3. Release BOTH buttons when you see the Apple logo and allow the device to boot normally.

My Firefox Mozilla is reduced to a tiny rectangle (upper left of screen) and does NOT RESPOND to my attempts to use the Firefox browser. What happened? Would Firefox please RESTORE the Firefox browser to my laptop.

I changed to Mozilla Firefox from Internet explorer months ago. Very pleased with features, service, etc. A couple of weeks ago, I got an update message while doing some work but did not install the update at the time. Another update message came up with an accompanying, confusing note indicating some dangerous possible consequences if I did not install the update.
A few keystrokes later and my screen seemed to go haywire, and my laptop would not respond to my cursor. I shut down. When I restarted and went to the Firefox shortcut icon a tiny (1"x 1/4") replica of part of the normal Yahoo!/Firefox screen appeared and continues to do so each time I attempt to use Firefox. I'm now back to Internet explorer. HELP me get back to using Mozilla.

Right-click on the Firefox image in that little Firefox window and see if '''Maximize''' is available in that context menu. If so, click on Maximize.
To be clear, Yahoo!/Firefox is a modified version of the official Firefox program and may have faults that aren't in the official version.

Photo gallery and camera not responding....what to do..

The iphones is not a backup device. The music sync is one way - computer to iphone.
You need to copy everything from your old computer, or your backup copy of your old computer to the new one.
Type "move itunes library" or similar into the Google search bar.

My phone is frozen and will not respond or turn off what do I do?

My phone is not recieving calls but I still get notifications when I get a text message. It also will not turn off and is on my settings app and can still be used as normal.

See Here > http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1808
You may need to try this More than Once...
Be sure to Follow ALL the Steps...
But... if the Device has been Modified... this will Not necessarily work.

On an iPhone 4s version 5.1.1 it is full with music and I cannot take an update. what are the steps to get rid of the music which is backed up to the cloud.

My phone is full of music and I do not have enough space to take the update. I have the photos and music on the cloud. What steps do i need to take to free up space on my phone so I can take the update?

You can use iTunes to sync all the music off your phone by unchecking "Sync Music" on the Music tab of your iTunes sync settings, then clicking Apply at the bottom to sync your phone. After updating, sync your music back to your phone.

Finder freezes and does not respond

I have an iMac with an Intel Core i3, using Mac OS X - 10.6.8 Snow Leopard. My finder continually freezes up on me and I have to re-launch the finder various times a day (I'm talking like 30 times a day sometimes). I use a lot of actions in Photoshop and a lot of AppleScripts to make particular files all day long. Sometimes Photoshop will hesitate for about a minute when trying to save tiffs - I usually re-launch the finder and it does fine for awhile. I use to run a script that build my PDF file a certain way and would freeze up when it was using an action in the script to make a picture of it to put it on another server. Now I'm using another more advanced script and it freezes inbetween the making of multiple PDF files - until I re-launch the finder, then it continues. There have been various times no matter what I'm doin, the finder would - "not respond". During these times it would make Illustrator and Photoshop to "not respond", sometimes I have to force quite programs, other times I just re-launch the finder and then everything responds good - for a time. The odd thing about this, is I have swiched machines, using all the same versions and programs, scripts and actions, and still does the same thing. I have moved around the room connecting to another ethernet thinking it might have been the connection, but no luck. I seem to be the only one in my department that has these type of issues to this magnitude. Other people here have had freezes and glitches, but not like me. I use a lot of personalized key commands and the only thing I can think of, is the combination of my personalized key commands in all programs, all the actions and all the scripts I use, may be a little too much for the iMac with Snow Leopard to handle. Plus we are hooked up to multiple servers with the scripts telling certain files to go to certain directories. Note: simply restarting does not fix any of this. Does anybody have any ideas about this issue???

You can remove the volume from /Library/Filesystems/Xsan/config/automount.plist . Then you mount manualy with the following command:
mkdir /Volumes/<volname>
mount -t acfs volname /Volumes/Volnames
from xsan 2.0 you can use the xsanctl command to mount:
xsanctl mount <volname>
I do not use 2.0 yet, so did not test it.
An empty automount.plist looks like this:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<!DOCTYPE plist PUBLIC "-//Apple Computer//DTD PLIST 1.0//EN" "http://www.apple.com/DTDs/PropertyList-1.0.dtd">
<plist version="1.0">

What are the mapfiles for and when should I use them?

Hi,
what are the map files for and why/when should I use them?
/usr/lib/ld/map.noexstk
usr/lib/ld/map.noexbss
/usr/lib/ld/map.noexdata
/usr/lib/ld/map.pagealign

Hi, I'm sure you've read the comments, but for the benefit of those who haven't: /usr/lib/ld/map.noexstk # Linker mapfile to create a non-executable stack definition within an # executable. /usr/lib/ld/map.noexbss # Link-editor mapfile to create a non-executable bss segment definition # within an executable. /usr/lib/ld/map.noexdata # Link-editor mapfile to create a non-executable data segment definition # within an executable. These stop the various segments from being executable. Which could reduce the risk surface for exploiting security holes in an application. /usr/lib/ld/map.pagealign # Linker mapfile to create page-aligned data within an executable. Aligning the start of the data segment can reduce the number of TLB entries needed to map the data. So the smallest TLB page size is 8KB, then we have 64KB, then 4MB etc. If the data starts on a 4MB boundary then it can be mapped with 4MB pages, if not then it has to be mapped with 8KB pages until a 64KB boundary, then 64KB pages until we get to a 4MB boundary. You sometimes get a bit of performance from this, but you may also get performance stability from it. If the mapping is random sometimes it works well, sometimes it works less well. Regards, Darryl.

My 4th gen 32gb iPod touch recently crashed for more than 12 hours during which time it was completely unresponsive. This is not the first time it has crashed but by far the longest time it has been unresponsive. What are the likely causes of this?

I don't regularly use any apps beyond Windows Live, Facebook, Skype etc. but app crashes are becoming frequent and this recent blackout was disturbing. What are the potential causes of this and how can I avoid them in the future?

it's weird , your device is not jailbreraked and it crashes? my device is jailbreaked and i almost have the same problems.
look, to avoid these problems:
1- dont open too much apps , and if you do , close them by multitasking menu.
2-try sometimes to turn off and on your device , its like refreshing ( called "respringing" in jailbreaked devices.
if you have the same problem , see an apple specialist.
plz mask as helphul question.
thanks.
