Sticky notes in 11.0.11 ridiculously slow and place signature stopped working

I used to regularly use the sticky notes feature in Acrobatto review documents, and I also used to regularly use the Place Signature feature to "sign" documents. These features used to work absolutely fine. However, recently, they have stopped working. When I type text in a sticky note, it takes about 30 seconds to appear - making it completely impossible to work with. At the same time, the Place Signature feature has completely stopped working alltogether. Finally, I notice my laptop gets extremely hot, and battery life is about 1/4 of what it used to be. Yesterday, I removed Acrobat and installed a fresh copy downloaded from the Adobe website. This solved the signature problem for about 1 hour, but now it is not working again, and the sticky note feature is still unworkable. Can anyone help please.

Hi Sara,
Version is 11.0.10 on Windows 7 Professional
I have 186 GB free space. No issues with other applications.
Today, it was so bad it actually froze. So I cancelled the process in task manager. There appeared to be 2 AcroRd32.exe *32 processes running, and after I stopped them and started Acrobat again, it seems to be OK. Note that I had already re-booted my complete machine before doing this, so if something is calling up “double Acrobat”, it is doing it on start-up.
Regards,
Tony

I THINK I have imported videos from my iPhone to my MacBook Air. but can't find them anywhere - they are not in iPhoto - which is ridiculously complex and there seems to be no logic

Did you look in iTunes?

Follow these steps to log into your iCloud account on your computer and deactivate "Find my iPhone" on your device:
Remove an iOS device or Mac on which you can’t turn off Find My iPhone
If you can’t turn off Find My iPhone on the device, turn off the device so it goes offline, then remove it from Find My iPhone on iCloud.com.
Note: You can also remove your iOS device by first erasing it—just follow the instructions below for removing an iOS device you don’t have. You can later restore the device from an iCloud or iTunes backup.
Turn off the device you want to remove.
Sign in to icloud.com/#find on another computer with your Apple ID (the one you use with iCloud). If you’re using another iCloud app, click the app’s name at the top of the iCloud.com window, then click Find My iPhone.
Click All Devices, select the offline device, then click Remove from Account. If you don’t see Remove from Account, click All Devices again, then click the Delete button next to the device. If the device comes online again, it will reappear in Find My iPhone. If your device reappears, turn off Find My iPhone on the device (follow the instructions above for removing a device by turning off Find My iPhone), or if it’s an iOS device and you no longer have it, follow the instructions below for removing an iOS device you no longer have.
Remove an iOS device you no longer have
If you no longer have the iOS device because you gave it away or sold it, you need to remotely erase it before you can remove it.
Sign in to icloud.com/#find with your Apple ID (the one you use with iCloud). If you’re using another iCloud app, click the app’s name at the top of the iCloud.com window, then click Find My iPhone.
Click All Devices, then select the device.
Click Erase [device], then enter your Apple ID password. Because the device isn’t lost, don’t enter a phone number or message.
Note: If you’re trying to erase a family member’s device, that person will need to enter his or her Apple ID password on this device. If the device is offline, the remote erase begins the next time it’s online. You’ll receive an email when the device is erased.
When the device is erased, click Remove from Account.All your content is erased, and someone else can now activate the device.

Help....

Am I glad I kept Windows desktop as without it I would be scre**ed now
What is going on with this latest update as its like a return to Windows with things crashing or hanging up every few minutes????
On a MacBook Air that has not been updated everything still works so what has 10.6.8 done and why won't the restore to 10.6.7 work?
Steve

None of those things you mentioned were what I suggested.
I'm guessing the "ctrl click in printer preferences" means you Reset the Printing System?
If so, that is what I would have suggested if deleting it by selecting the ( - ) button and then adding it with the ( + ) button.
But, if HP has a fix, it likely needs to update its drivers.

Try the standard fixes:
- Reset. Nothing is lost
Reset iPod touch: Hold down the On/Off button and the Home button at the same time for at
least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears.
- Restore from backup
- Restore to factory defaults/new iPod

Have you updated iTunes with the absolute latest software? If you have not in a long time, your iPad won't be recognized.

Hey csamuelnguma,
Thanks for your post, and welcome to the Apple Support Communities.
I understand that your MacBook Air's bluetooth is no longer functioning correctly. I recommend that we start by resetting both the SMC and PRAM:
Intel-based Macs: Resetting the System Management Controller (SMC)
http://support.apple.com/kb/HT3964
OS X Mountain Lion: Reset your computer’s PRAM

Note: Resetting PRAM may change some system settings and preferences. Use System Preferences to restore your settings.
Thanks,

Hold the HOME and SLEEP buttons at the same time until an Apple logo appears. If nothing has happened after holding for 30 seconds charge the phone for 15 minutes with the wall adapter and try again.

My daughter has an iPod and FaceTime has stopped working as she is not able to verify her email address please can you help.

My daughter has an iPod and FaceTime has stopped working as she is not able to verify her email address please can you help.

As long as you can't get a hold of the device, you can't do anything more than talking to your daughter about it.
Erasing the device could also be an option to keep her from using apps you don't want her to have on her device.
Try talking first

Lightroom 4.1 RC2 (1:1 previews, slow editing large files, stops working)

I am running win7 64 bit with 12GB RAM and installed Lightroom 4.1 RC2. 1) I am (trying) to edit large panoramic files, and the 1:1 preview images do not seem to be saved from session to session. Images take quite a while to load in Library and even longer in Develop. 2) There seems to be a major memory leak. Upon startup I can edit a couple of panos, but then the machine becomes very slow and basically quits working. 3) I don't see "x64" in the tile bar. Is it running 64 bit?

Running Win7 64-bit here as well and installed LR 4.1 RC2 last week. There is definitely a memory leak of some sort, as I too am experiencing major latency after a few minutes of editing. When I check memory usage in Task Manager, I'm seeing more than 2GB (of 4GB) of RAM being consumed by LR and my machine is running like molasses.

Ridiculously slow and unusable Broadband / BTVisio...

I am getting a problem every night this week (4 days so far) where my broadband is unusably slow.
This effects Broadband/On Demand TV/Hub Phones
Broadband and Vision on Demand TV all fine during the day.
BUT
at the Hours 9pm-1030pm it all goes to pot.
Cannot watch ANY on demand TV - just gets v04 timout message
Broadband is unuseable - pages take 4-5 mins to load
cannot stream media AT ALL
hub phones are rendered unuseable too
its not even possable to run the speedtester.com software as it times out each time
after about 11pm if you try again it runs everything perfectly.
so ...
Whats happening between 9pm and 11pm ?
Whos causing it ?
how is this going to be fixed asap.?
BTW im on the Perranporth , Cornwall Exchange
i have reported to BT each evening, for the past 3 evenings but still the issue persists
I hope somone can help soon.

The VP stands for Virtual Path. A hot VP means that the exchange is facing capacity issues within the exchange, this in turn gives you a poor download speed is probably the simplest way to put it.
To get this raised as a fault you must complete a test on the BT speedtester site and the test usually needs to comeback as failed before they seem to take these kind of issues on board.In your case you need the speedtest result between 9-11pm
This doesn't always affect all users on the exchange, sometimes it can only affect certian users and this usually happens during peak times. When this is happening the VP is usually not running hot but it would be running close to it, I think BT Wholesale class that as amber if my memory serves me correct.
just to add to the explanation already provided http://www.kitz.co.uk/adsl/equip.htm

My Macbook Air first generation is slow and applications don't work!

Last week, I woke up to find that my macbook air (first generation) has completely frozen. I went ahead and tried many keys such as esc, etc. until I decided to press on the power button for a few seconds until it restarted. Next, I found an empty screen with nothing but the apple logo on it. I was patient but nothing happened, 3 hours into the wait. I went on the apple support communities and followed a few steps to reboot and ended up with a blue screen, with my start up slowly starting. Ever since, everything takes about x50 the amount of time it takes to do anything for example, when I click on a file, it takes x 50 times longer it takes to open the file or empty the trash, etc. I've tried opening any application to try and back up so I can do a format as they call it, but I can't open any application such as Mail, etc.
I am not a computer software/hardware literate person but I can understand what's going on and how to follow steps suggested by IT/apple experts. I have also done a hardware check up on reboot and everything is fine with the hardware.
Please help me get my macbook air back.
Thank you.

Two other factors that could impact performance like that .... reduced memory and a too full hard drive/SSD.
If you click on the apple on the menu bar, and about this mac, does it show you the memory size you expect to have, ie, 2GB?
If you can, bring up the Activity Monitor (on your hard drive in applications/utlities) to see if anything is hogging the CPU.
On your hard drive/SSD, how much free space do you have? You need 5GB minimum with 10% to 15% being better, for systems usage. Less than that can really slow the system down.
If you can, bring up Disk Utility (on your hard drive in applications/utilities) and do a verify disk to check the disk status.
You could reset PRAM ... won't hurt and 'might' help
Shut down the computer.
Locate the following keys on the keyboard: Command, Option, P, and R. You will need to hold these keys down simultaneously in step 4.
Turn on the computer.
Press and hold the Command-Option-P-R keys. You must press this key combination before the gray screen appears.
Hold the keys down until the computer restarts and you hear the startup sound for the second time.
Release the keys.
You should be able to run the Apple hardware test by disconnecting any devices, leaving the power adapter in, and reboot holding the D key down. Run the extended test.
