Soundbooth CS5 windows stays in active memory after closing

Does/has this happened to anyone else? Every single time I open up Soundbooth, use it, then close it, it actually stays active in my memory. I open up Windows Task Manager and there it is, typically using about 50% of the CPU resources until I kill it. This happens every single time.
In fact, if I've closed soundbooth, but DON'T open WTM and kill it, when I go to open up soundbooth again, it tells me I have another active session and asks if I'd like to close it.
I couldn't find anything about this in the forums or elsewhere; havent contacted support yet... its more annoying than anything else.
I'm running Windows 7 ultimate, 64 bit, and Adobe CS5, with 4gb of RAM.
Anyone have thoughts on this?
It doesn't happen with other programs in the suite, though the same thing regularly happens with firefox...
Thanks!
Richard

HT203167 Why do files that I have organized into folders not stay in their folders after closing and reopening iTunes? And Why does the renaming get undone? I do this in iTunes Media/ Music.

Why do files that I have organized into folders not stay in their folders after closing and reopening iTunes? And Why does the renaming get undone? I do this in iTunes Media/ Music.

I recently had to reinstall my software for a
dell computer a dell latitude d 830, then after installing all of my software and such including itunes the player did well even record to disks with no problems now that my system has done alot of updating of system files....now the itunes does not burn to my cd...error message 2131 this time
The 2131 usually indicates firmware needs to be updated on a drive.
Head to your drivers and downloads page for your latitude at Dell, and check for updates to your firmware for your optical drives. If you're behind and you update, does that clear up the 2131?

Firefox stays active in memory after closing program

After closing Firefox and restarting the progam after a while, a popup message appears saying Firefox is allready active (message in dutch) and Firefox does not (re)start. It is not an active window however, since I closed it down...
When I press alt-ctr-del, Firefox can be found as "active"in the processes-tab.
To re-start Firefox I now manually must click on "end process" and now Firefox starts without problem.
This happens on each occasion after closing the program.
Anyone know how to solve it? Help appreciated!

Need new Windows 8.1 activation key after hard drive replacement and system recovery

I am new to this board but a very long time ThinkPad user.
Bought a new T540p and the hard drive failed within five days of receipt; Lenovo sent me a new drive, recovery disks, machine is fully restored. With a new hard drive, the machine's "finger print" no longer matches the original Microsoft OEM activation. I have been on the phone with Lenovo six times and they promise to send me a new activation code, they have transferred me to Microsoft twice (they actually tried to help but concluded it was an OEM copy so they couldn't do anything). Still no activation code and I really can't finish building out this machine. Short of sending the machine back to Lenovo, is there a way to legimately get this valid OEM license activated? How do you get a new activation code from Lenovo? I was transferred back and forth between hardware and software support three times. I searched the forum but did not see this problem exactly.
Thank you for you help.

@2014anonon...
Good day and welcome to the community.
On an outside chance of an embedded key / recovery dvd version (pro vs std) mismatch, please have a look at the first screen of your UEFI / BIOS. What value do you see listed as the Preinstalled OS License? Whether it's defined as Std or Pro in UEFI / BIOS, it should match the type of W8 Genuine sticker on the bottom of your machine. Then check the labeling of the recovery DVDs you received from Lenovo to compare.
Please let us know what you find.
Regards.

I want Safari in Mountain Lion to stay in fullscreen mode after closing.

Hello!
I have a feature on my Mac Mini and Macbook Pro (OS X Lion), which makes Safari stay in fullscreen after I have closed it down (Cmd + Q) and then start the program again. By doing so I do not need to click on the full screen icon(upper right corner) every time I start Safari again.
But on my Macbook Pro Retina (Mountain Lion), this function is gone. Before I made a temporary solution, which was that I locked the file (think it's a cache file) that allows Safari to go back to "No fullscreen" mode, and it worked. But the bad part about it is that I can not change the settings after that.
Does anyone know any solution to this? Or is there something wrong with my Safari?
/Niklas

Thank you! That solved my problem, strange that Apple support couldn't help me in this
But why are for example Spotify working with always start with fullscreen even if the "close windows..." is checked?

Windows can't wake up after closing the lid of a MBP?

My Windows XP can't wake up after I close the lid of my MBP. When I open the lid, the screen is black and the latch light is out.

I cannot solve your problem but I did have the same problem which has now evolved into my computer NEVER going to sleep and my bluetooth does not work I have tried all the advice I can find and nothing works. Of course my waranty expired four months ago so now I will have to come up with the money to fix it if I want this resovled. If your warenty is still good I suggest having someone look at it before it evloves into a bigger problem.

XML-tree in memory after closing XmlResults

Hi,
is there a way to have a parsed xml-tree in memory which represents XmlValue objects after I close corresponding XmlResults. I want to have smth like nu.xom.Document (or any analogues).
The closest solution I've found so far is getting node handle, and then reconstruct XmlResults out of it by calling XmlContainer.getNode(java.lang.String). But it's not exactly what I want to have. I might not have an access to the container object, or it might be closed already. The another poor-man solution is to get a string by XmlValue.asString() and feed it into e.g. XOM's Builder.build(). But it's tremendously inefficient.
Does anybody have smth better in his mind?
P.S. I still want to retrieve documents lazily, but in case of a necessity get an XML-tree into memory.
Thanks,
Vyacheslav

Thanks, George! I'm eager to have the new release :-) When is it approximately going to appear?
Maybe XmlDocument.fetchAllData() can serve as a temporary solution for the current release?
P.S. I was thinking about that integration with XOM (or something like this would be great).

Photoshop does not release memory after closing document.

When I close a large document Photoshop does not release the memory. If I open another document the program is slow and not resposive. If I close out of Photoshop and restart it then load the other document it is quick and responsive again.

A bit late to the party here but this issue is still live and I can't find anything else on the forum similar to it (apologies if there is).
Photoshop does not seem to re-use memory it just keep allocating new right up to the limit before the prog crashes (same applies to Fireworks) so any batch/script processing of more than a handful of files is impossible.
I am Photoshop via Creative Cloud (so I am always updated to your latest release), Windows 7 64k with 8Mb memory and am using Norton Intenet Security 20.3.1.22 which is updated daily.

Executable VI remains in memory after closing the program

Using LabVIEW 8.5.1
I've had two problems like this now. One in a vista machine and the other in a windows 2000 machine. The program is the same with minor changes between the machines. At first I thought the problem was in the installer and I had to change the target OS to Vista only, but now I'm not sure that is the issue as it is happening in a win2K machine as well.
The program runs fine but when we stop the execution and then close the program by hitting the X on the upper right corner of the window it closes the window but the instance remains loaded in memory and I have to go to the task manager to end the task.
Any leads on the fixt to this would be helpful.
Thanks,

I will check for code left running as this may be the most likely cause.
As to what Pnt wrote:
"Although i don't agree with your programming style. The program should not be terminated at that point. It should pass to an idle state, waiting either for a button "Run" to be pressed, or the "X"."
I am giving you a glimpse of what the code does. I'm not saying that I'm an expert programer as it is not my full time responsibility. However, I am asking for help on figuring out what is going on with my code and I understand that it will be hard to pin point the problem without posting the entire program for members to disect. Having said that, it would also be difficult to get but a glimpse on my programming style without me posting what I would consider a finished program. For example, (here is another glimpse at my style) the program does go into an idle state waiting for the user to run another recipe or to terminate the program. If the user decides to run a recipe but needs to abort the recipe, there is an option to do that and the program goes back to idle. Further more the program can only be stopped while it is idle, a recipe has to be aborted prior to stopping the program (this is required to avoid leaving the furnace in an unsafe state) unless the user forces the program to quit by way of the "end task" which thanks to the note posted in a previous reply I know how to hadle now...
Sorry for the deviation from the actual topic, I could go on and on about what the program is supposed to do and how I'm meeting the end user requirements but I don't see the value of that at the momment.

How to free the memory after closing JavaFX Stage?

I am creating a JavaFx application which contain a button. When I click on that button, it opens a new stage containing a table with thousands of data. It's working fine. But the problem is, when I close the Stage of that table, memory is not getting free by the application i.e. everytime when I open the new stage for table then memory is get increased. Is there any issue with JavaFX? or I have to do something else?
I have tried to set everything null at the time of closing of that stage but still memory is not getting free.
My button click code is :
btn.setOnAction(new EventHandler<ActionEvent>() {
            @Override
            public void handle(ActionEvent event) {
                Stage stage = new Stage();
                Table1Controller controller = (Table1Controller) Utility.replaceScene("/tablesample/Table1.fxml", stage);
                controller.init(stage);
                stage.setTitle("Sample");
                stage.setWidth(583.0);
                stage.setHeight(485.0);
                stage.initModality(Modality.APPLICATION_MODAL);
                InputStream in = TableSample.class.getResourceAsStream("icon_small.png");
                try {
                    stage.getIcons().add(new Image(in));
                } finally {
                    try {
                        in.close();
                    } catch (IOException ex) {
                stage.show();
Utility.replacescene method : It loads the scene from given fxml and set to stage. At final It return controller object for that scene.
public static Initializable replaceScene(String fXml, Stage mystage) {
        InputStream in = null;
        try {
            FXMLLoader loader = new FXMLLoader();
            in = Utility.class.getResourceAsStream(fXml);
            loader.setLocation(Utility.class.getResource(fXml));
            loader.setBuilderFactory(new JavaFXBuilderFactory());
            AnchorPane page;
            try {
                page = (AnchorPane) loader.load(in);
            } finally {
                in.close();
            Scene scene = new Scene(page);
            mystage.setScene(scene);
            return loader.getController();
        } catch (Exception ex) {
            return null;
    }Thanks

Is there any issue with JavaFX? or I have to do something else?It's likely an issue with your application code (though it could be a bug in the JavaFX platform too).
Either way debugging most memory issues in JavaFX (except for ones the graphics card texture related) is the same as debugging them in Java - so just use standard Java profiling tools to try to track down any memory leaks you have.
Such work is as much an art as a science and takes some experience to get right, so grab your detective cap, download and use the tools linked and try and track it down:

Old Microsoft Word Doc Labels Stay up With Gestures after Closing Program

Macbook Pro
Early 2011
Just upgraded to Mavericks
Don't even know if this is going to make sense... When I do the four-finger-up gesture the tags/labels (not the actual documents) of the documents I had up in Word yesterday are still up. I've closed those documents. I've quit the program. I've reopened the program. I've opened and closed other documents. It doesn't matter: the little label thingies are still there (actually think they're overlapping older ones now). WHAT IS HAPPENING?!
Thanks.

Same problem here - Microsoft Word 2008 (update 12.1.7) will open fine, and then start the spinning pizza of death. Only way out is to force-quit the app. I've tried:
1) deleting plist and font cache files
2) uninstalling MS Office 2008, reinstalling and then re-applying updates 12.1.0 and 12.1.7
3) confirming that Apple's Font Card.app can verify all fonts
No luck. Currently I can't open any MS word doc without the spinning pizza of death.
If you are lucky enough that these symptoms only happen with a specific Word .doc file, I would see if the PC-originator could re-save the file as .RTF and resend. If you can then open it OK, you could revert back to .doc (or .docx) format. RTF format is Microsoft's interchange format. If there are anomalies in the .doc file, saving as .RTF can sometimes clean them up. Once done, you can revert back to native MS Word format.

Reader 9.3 causing IE to stay in processes after closing

After installing the latest Reader (9.3) for a client, their Internet Explorer remains in memory after closing it completely (iexplore.exe processes stay in task manager). This wouldn't be a problem because IE still starts back up just fine, but it causes another program they use to hang when they are trying to perform some tasks in it. When it hangs, I can close out the processes, but there's a 50/50 chance it stops hanging and continues or stays hung up. After uninstalling Reader, IE closes out fine and immediately, and their other program works fine. The other program is a little older, most likely a Windows 3.1 16-bit program. I was not yet been able to disable the Link Helper add-on for IE to see if that was the cause. Any other ideas?

Try this:
Right click on the IE8 icon in the taskbar. A menu pops ups up. Right click again on "Internet Explorer". Then left click on "Run as administrator". I had a different problem with Reader and this solved the problem. The problem I had was I could not save pdf files in IE8. This solved that problem.

Image remains after closing window.

Hi!
I just purchased my first LCD display (23" Apple) and I immediately noticed an anomaly. When I have a window open, such as mail, after closing, the image of the window remains faintly on the desk top. I can even read the title of the last email etc. The image slowly fades away and disappears but it's somewhat unnerving. An image even remained from the previous user after I switched.
Is this common? Just a "thing" that LCDs do? After all the hype about xboxes burning in on plasma TVs, I'm a little paranoid.
Thanks to all for your advice and council !
Jeff

Hey Jeff -
I had a problem with my 23 ghosting a good while back, but I changed the desktop and I haven't noticed it since, I have read of others mentioning the problem, try searching this folder for "ghost".
This document has some information but from reading posts in the past I suspect the ghosting is partially a hardware issue and some monitors of the same model have it worse than others.

PS Touch Android does not release memory when closed.

I have to force closure with Task Manager on my Samsung Note 2 running JB 4.1. Why and when will it be fixed?

Hi Ignacio,
Sorry for the lack of information - I had typed more complete description, but had trouble posting it.
The app is installed on a Samsung Galaxy Note 2 phone that is running Jellybean 4.1.1.
The only way I can see to exit the application is by using the "back" soft key under the screen on the right. Some apps have an "exit" choice under the "menu" soft key, but that key is not active with PSTouch.
I see the same issue with Google Chrome. The menu key is active with this app, but it does not have an "exit" choice.
With both these apps, I have to go to the "Active Apps" tab of the Task Manager to release memory.
There is one difference with PS Touch. Google Chrome always starts the same way whether or not I release it's memory. With PS Touch, if I release memory after closing with the back key, the next time I start it I get an initial royal blue screen with the PS Touch icon in the middle followed by a second screen with a menu in the middle titled "New Project From". If I exit at that point, it takes two presses of the back key to first close the menu and then exit the program and return to a home screen. If I do not release memory, the next time I start PS Touch, it goes directly to the second screen, but without the "New Project From" menu.
I hope this gives you the information you need.

A second browser window will not open and then closing the 1st window firefox will restart. Taskmgr shows it still running, it will not restart until I end the process in taskmgr.

I open the browser and close it every thing is fine. I open the browser and then attempt to open a second browser window, it will not open. Now because I've attempted to open a second browser window firefox will not restart after closing the open window. Until I've shut it down in the taskmgr. This just started the other day and I have removed the only update I made that was "flash" and I removed the 64 bit version of firefox.

Win 7 with iTunes installed - I was also having problems with that.
"netsh winsock reset" at the command prompt resolved all issues and Firefox launched normally.
Check to see if Winsock is corrupted. May prevent FF from communicating with the web and consequently fails to launch properly - for my situation was not a firewall or antivirus block!
http://support.microsoft.com/kb/936211#LetMeFixItMyselfAlways
Click Start, and in Start Search, type cmd.
Right-click the cmd entry that appears in the search results, and then click Run as administrator. If you are prompted for an administrator password or for a confirmation, type the password, or click Continue.
At the command prompt, type the following, and then press ENTER:
netsh winsock reset
Then, you should see the following message:
Successfully reset the Winsock Catalog. You must restart the computer in order to complete the reset.
Restart the computer.
Note If you receive an “Access Denied” error message instead of the message that is mentioned in step 3, the command prompt was not correctly elevated. In this case, close the Command Prompt window, and repeat steps 1 through 3. Make sure that you correctly implement step 2.
