Spinning ball all the time? new final cut?

Hi there,
After spend 300 dollars in the brand new final cut X, i notice that i also have a free spinning colourfull beachball?! yes in the previous version i never add so many hang ups and so time waiting for some operations, i have, as u can say the best comfiguration tha a imac can have until a year ago, 16 g of ram and a i7 processor, well the best on a imac.
Now and after a expatation i notice that its far for the desire result and i need help to try to resulve this bugs or not.
Hope to have any news, from someone and especially an update to fix from Apple

I'm running it on a 15" MacBook Pro and I get constant beach balls, they seem to get more frequent the longer I have the app open, and ultimately I have to force close and restart my computer because the whole system bogs down.  Very aggravating. I have a Core 2 Duo and only 4 GB RAM, so I understand it would run slow, but after about an hour of editing, sometimes less, it becomes unusable.

  • Just get the spinning ball all the time in FCP

    When I use Final Cut Pro (newest update) I get the spinning ball all the time when I do ordinary things like dobbleclicking a videoclip (DVCpro HD) or a sequence.
    If I try to force quit FCP it seems like it quits, the report problem to Apple screen appears, but I have to force shutdown the whole computer, because even after I have force quit FCP, it still appears like it is running in the dock, and I am not able to start it again before I have restartet the computer.
    I had this problem earlier, so yesterday I formated and reinstalled the whole system, but the problem continues. Its quite frustrating that I cant use Final Cut Pro on my new MacBook pro, 2,4GHZ, 4GB ram.

  • Motion is so slow - spinning ball all the time!

    I took a class in Motion recently and they used iMacs at every station.  I never got a spinning ball.  I've got a 12 Core with 16GB of RAM and I can't scroll a window without getting a spinning ball.  Every tiny adjustment takes forever!  Another thing, when I select an effect or track, sometimes the HUD doesn't update until I click around a bit.  Just now it's started holding a single frame of video regardless where I put the scrub bar on the timeline.  The motion tracked box moves when I scrub but the picture beneath is a freeze frame.  Wait, I take that back, it seems to be playing at 1 frame per minute.  This is not a complicated composite either.  One shot with a motion tracked TIFF file on top.
    I've restarted, checked permisisons, trashed preferences.  Nothing helps. 
    I'm editing HDV.  I'm using internal drives for all media and applications (different internal drives).  All my software is up to date.  Is there anything I should check?  Any settings?  Any likely culprits?
    TIA,
    Pete

    To Michael's checklist I'd add this: are you using the download version of Motion? If you are, it's possible there may be some sort of conflict with FCS. If you're still getting beachballs, consider reinstalling Motion…using Apple's "best installation practices".
    I too don't like to work in HDV, but on the occasions I have, I've not encountered anywhere near the difficulties you describe.

  • PSE slows down my laptop terribly!! Spinning beach ball all the time

    I tried asking on Adobe, but no mac users, apparently. I've installed PSE twice (once was 4 yrs ago). Both times, it has slowed my macbook down so much that it's basically unusable.
    I have the Intel core duo processor and plenty of RAM, etc. I checked Adobe's requirements for PSE.
    Anyone have or heard of this problem or have any suggestions?
    TIA

    Hi
    PSE ? ?
    Slow Mac - very often due to lack of space on internal boot hard disk.
    less then 5Gb and it's not working safe at all
    I set for a minimum of 25Gb free space all the time - to get it running OK

  • With all the hysteria behind Final Cut X do you feel that Logic will inherently become Garageband?

    There is a funny video from one of the companies thaqt produce instructional videos for Logic, etc and the guys states he has a pre release version of the new Logic.It was and is a hoax video released around April fools time but the video has Logic sporting a GUI with woodgrain sides, crazy easy preset.. honestly it was hysterical when i saw it. That was then... now with Final Cut X looking more like iMovie versus Final Cut Pro 7 I'm wondering if we can expect the same type of treatment to our beloved DAW of choice? Especially since the market is saturated with DAW all using the "PRO" tag. Your thoughts and please be kind and lets have an intelligent discussion so this doesn't get banned or removed.
    Thanks.

    Launch the Console application in any of the following ways:
    ☞ Enter the first few letters of its name into a Spotlight search. Select it in the results (it should be at the top.)
    ☞ In the Finder, select Go ▹ Utilities from the menu bar, or press the key combination shift-command-U. The application is in the folder that opens.

  • 2009 iMac spinning beach ball all the time except windows 7

    Please Help
    I have a early 2009 iMac every time I boot into OS X  and click on more than 2 things no matter what I get the spinning beach ball for ever but in Windows 7 everything is fine
    reinstalled 10.5.6 that come with iMac countless times Apple hardware test is fine Memtest is fine changed harddrive no change opened iMac up and cleaned fans and everything else no change Changed keyboards and mouse no change its got me stumped why Windows 7 works fine but OS X does not had iMac since 2009 never had problem before.
    PS nothing but keyboard and mouse connected to iMac
    Thanks Mark

    Yes I am doing a complete erase of the hard drive and installing OS X brand new
    as far as hard drives I am only using one at a time, I changed out to a brand new harddrive
    If the logic board is failing WHY is windows 7 running fine with no problems I do not understand I have had macs all my life never had problems like this before
    When Spotlight is indexing it just takes so long and does not finish as far as I know it should not take longer than 10 mins on a fresh system
    any other things you could think of would be good as at the moment its just a very expensive Windows machine
    Thanks Mark

  • Major slow down - spinning beach ball all the time

    My MacPro increasingly suffers from major slow downs, mainly when using iTunes and renaming, deleting songs. My library is on a NAS server. Sometimes my Mac becomes unresponsive for minutes, simple things like resizing windows takes extremly long. Something ain't right!
    Here is an example: I wanted to delete a few songs from iTunes, which virtually locked my Mac up for minutes. Console says:

    Hope anyone can make sense out of that!

    There have been loads of threads dealing with SL & spinning beach balls. I have had/having these issues still.
    Current setup:
    MacBook Pro 2.53Ghz running SL 10.6.4 - non-Apple installed HD (seaGate 320BG 7200RPM)
    Issues: SBBOD at any given time, some more frequent than other times (no specific time interval). Have reboot, SMART status, Apple hardware test, re-installed SL, root user. Results: still the same issue.
    Possible workaround (test in progress):
    Removed seaGate 320BG 7200RPM and put back the original 5400RPM disk and mount seaGate 320BG 7200RPM with an external USB case. Results: snappy as he*ll, no more issues.
    Next round: refit the seaGate 320BG 7200RPM once more to see if just removing/adding disks helps.
    If the SBBOD then still occurs, the only conclusion I can make, is that the seaGate 320BG 7200RPM is somehow not compatible. This could be due to its speed or some other issue (having this disk external causes 0 SBBOD issues).
    If this will not work, I will then proceed to clone the data of my seaGate 320BG 7200RPM to the original 5400RPM Apple fitted disk and take it from there.
    If that setup will neither work, I will then finally move back to the shop and have Apple check it out.
    Good luck.

  • Brutally slow, spinning beach ball all the time

    In the last few months my Intel iMac has slowed to a crawl, making it virtually unusable. The simplest task (opening a new window, dragging a folder, scrolling up or down in Safari) results in the spinning beach ball, often for minutes on end.
    I have used Disk Utility to repair permissions, dragged the Fonts and Preferences files from my user Library to the desktop and restarted, and done an Archive and Install, with no improvement. I have 4GB of RAM and at least 10GB of free disk space. Activity Monitor doesn't snow any obvious problems, but often showed the balky programs in red with a "(not responding)" next to each.
    Any ideas or suggestions would be appreciated, as I have now resorted to using my wife's laptop as my computer is essentially useless.

    With 4GB you should not be paging to disk, but it would not hurt to monitor pageout information. You can do this with *Activity Monitor*, top via Terminal, or if you have installed Xcode, the *vm_stat 60* command from a Terminal session.
    What you are looking for is very high pageout activity. But again, with 4GB of memory that should not be an issue, unless you like to run some really memory intensive programs.
    After I upgraded to Leopard, I had some slowness that I did not understand. It turned out that when running Tiger, I had a licensed copy of *Little Snitch* installed. However, I did not upgrade Little Snitch to a Leopard compatible version, when I installed Leopard. My problem turned out to be that I had NOT uninstalled the Tiger version of Little Snitch, and as a result its Tiger compatible bits were causing me slow downs when running Leopard.
    I actually put up with this for awhile, until I decide to do some house cleaning on System PrefPanes I was no longer really using. That is when I accidentially discovered that my performance came back after getting rid of the Tiger version of Little Snitch.
    That was my experience. And I did not really get Beachballs, but I did notice the slowness.
    I am suggesting that maybe you have something installed on your system that is not on your Wife's system which is affecting your performance.

  • Mac Slow: I am getting beach ball all the time

    Hello Guys,
    I hope you can help me with this issue. Since last week, the beach ball appears frequently, creating some lag (2-10 secs) in my actions i.e. when i want to type in Safari, when I want to write an email, when I open finder, etc. As you can imagine this situation is very annoying given the week before everything was fine.
    I haven't installed any new software however updates run automatically.
    I decided to do my first backup (yes, shame on me for not do it before), it took almost 3 days to finish!.
    I already have run "Disk Utility" and it said "The volume Macintosh HD appears to be OK."
    Please find attached my etrecheck report that could give you more information. Any suggestion is really appreciated.
    Thanks for your help.
    Julio

  • 2010 Mac Mini Beach Balls all the time! Help!

    Our Mac mini has always been this way since new on and off. It has the DVD drive and c2d. I have upgraded it trying to resolve the issue but it is still there. It now has 8gb of ram, 128gb SSD m4. Though it is two versions of the OS behind and considering upgrading it to mountain lion too see if that helps. The OS has been installed fresh multiple times. It is okay after a fresh reboot, but after the day is up is starts to slow. If you go more than one day or so it is really slow. We have to restart it every day
    I am sick of the issues it has given us. Any one have any other ideas on how to solve this? Would the OS upgrade be worth it?

    First, back up all data immediately, as your boot drive may be failing.
    Take these steps when you notice the problem.
    Step 1
    Launch the Activity Monitor application in any of the following ways:
    ☞ Enter the first few letters of its name into a Spotlight search. Select it in the results (it should be at the top.)
    ☞ In the Finder, select Go ▹ Utilities from the menu bar, or press the key combination shift-command-U. The application is in the folder that opens.
    ☞ Open LaunchPad. Click Utilities, then Activity Monitor in the page that opens.
    Select the CPU tab of the Activity Monitor window.
    Select All Processes from the menu in the toolbar, if not already selected.
    Click the heading of the % CPU column in the process table to sort the entries by CPU usage. You may have to click it twice to get the highest value at the top. What is it, and what is the process? Also post the values for % User, % System, and % Idle at the bottom of the window.
    Select the System Memory tab. What values are shown in the bottom part of the window for Page outs and Swap used?
    Next, select the Disk Activity tab. What approximate values are shown for Reads in/sec and Writes out/sec?
    Step 2
    You must be logged in as an administrator to carry out this step.
    Launch the Console application in the same way as above. Make sure the title of the Console window is All Messages. If it isn't, select All Messages from the SYSTEM LOG QUERIES menu on the left.
    Post the 50 or so most recent messages in the log — the text, please, not a screenshot.

  • Safari constantly rainbow beach ball all the time... help!

    I am running everything all up to date on my Macbookpro, and always my safari is doing the rainbow disk, or beach ball, whenever I open it, close it, open a new tab, open a new window, switch between tabs... you get my point right?
    How do I solve this issue?

    Hi,
    Check for third party Safari add-ons. Safari: Add-ons may cause Safari to unexpectedly quit or have performance issues
    Reset Safari. From your Safari menu bar click Safari / Reset Safari. Select the top 5 buttons. Click Reset. Relaunch Safari.
    Open a Finder window select your Home Folder in the Sidebar on the left. Then open the Library folder, then the Caches folder, then the com.apple.Safari folder. Move the cache.db file to the Trash. Relaunch Safari. If you still have problems ...
    Check for Login Items Open System Preferences/Accounts then select the Login Items tab. Delete any files or apps you have listed there. And go to /Library/Startup Items. Move any files in the Startup Items folder to the Trash.
    Troubleshoot the Safari .plist file. Open a Finder window. Select your Home Folder in the Sidebar on the left. It has a small house icon. Then open the Library folder then the Preferences folder.
    Move the com.apple.Safari.plist file from the Preferences folder to the Desktop. Now launch Safari. If Safari functions as it should, move the .plist file to the Trash.
    If nothing above has helped, login to another user account on your Mac. Try Safari there.

  • Safari is worst then ever. Spinning beachball all the time now. ***?

    Now what. Every single time I open a webpage, I get the spinning beachball. This is rediculous. Now I know why everyone else is installing Google Chrome and Firefox. This is suppose to be Apple's flagship Web Browser. Now what?
    Apple keeps updating Safari and keeps on messing things up.
    So sick of it.
    Goodbye Safari, I will start using Google Chrome.

    Hi,
    Spinning Beach Ball of Death... can mean several things.
    One, check Safari / Preferences - Extensions. If you have any installed, turn that off then relaunch Safari. See if that made a difference.
    If it's not Extensions, try Safari in another user account. If you see the SSBOD there, that can be a telltale sign the startup disk needs repairing. Follow the instructions here.

    If Safari is ok in another user account, then log back into your admin account. Check for third party Safari unsupported add ons that could be causing the SSBOD. Click this link for help with that.

  • Why does my mail beach ball all the time

    Is there a conflict or bug in my new Lion?

    Hello!
    The same happened to my yesterday night when I was charging my iPhone 5 with iOS 6.1. My first impression was that could it be and auto update (to install iOS 6.1.2) however I'm still on 6.1.
    It erased ALL my info and shows the initial configuration wizard......this is totally a mega ***!!!!!!
