The first image I open in photshop takes a minute to open

When I open my first photo in photshop CC, I have to wait one minut more or less, until the image appear. The rest of images that I open after the first, open normally.
What is the problem?

The 1st image that you are trying to open in PS CC, is it a very large image? What is the size of the file. Try opening a small size image and check.
Try resetting the PS CC preferences and check if it's an issue with corrupt preferences : http://forums.adobe.com/thread/375776
Try to open PS CC in Plugin Disabled mode and check the same. For that Press Shift+PS CC icon and hit Yes.

Bridge CS4 has LONG delay in opening the first image

Photoshop CS4 upgrade was my Christmas present this year. I've been fighting this annoying "problem" ever since then...
I DO see this "problem" on my desktop PC, which is a Dell XPS-400 PC (with 2 GB of memory) running Windows XP (Media Center Edition) with SP3 installed. I DO NOT see this "problem" on my laptop, which is a Dell XPS-1530 (4 GB of memory) running Windows Vista SP1. I installed the Photoshop CS4 software exactly the same way on both machines, and I have the preferences set the same in both Photoshop and Bridge (and Camera Raw) on both machines.
Here's the situation: I first open Photoshop CS4 and then click on the Bridge icon in the Application Bar to open Bridge. When I use Bridge to open a photo, by either double-clicking the thumbnail, or right-clicking on the thumbnail and choose "Open" from the context menu, there is a 42 second delay before Photoshop opens the file. This long delay only occurs when opening the very first file.
Once that first image file is opened, double-clicking any thumbnail in Bridge will have it open in Photoshop CS4 in about 2 seconds. There will never be another long delay in having Bridge pass a file to Photoshop (or Camera Raw) again - until I close the applications and restart them. Once I restart the applications, the first photo takes 42 seconds to open....
This delay does not occur in opening the first image file if I right-click on the thumbnail in Bridge CS4 and choose "Open With" and manually choose Photoshop CS4.
Even if that is how I open the first (or several) image file(s), the first time I try to open a file from Bridge by double-clicking on a thumbnail (or right-click on a thumbnail and choose "Open") there will be that annoying 42 second delay before it opens.
It does not matter what the file format the first image file is (JPG, PSD, TIFF, or DNG), or what the file format of any subsequent image file is. As long as I do not close the Bridge and Photoshop applications, any subsequent file will be passed from Bridge to Photoshop in only a couple of seconds.
I have manually set the File Name Extensions in Windows XP, and in the Preferences in Bridge. Both have been set to open the file types listed above with Photoshop CS4.
I have uninstalled CS4, and have used two seperate Registry cleaners (CCleaner and jv16 Power Tools) before re-installing Photoshop CS4. This had no effect on this situation. I've run "chkdsk C: /r" several times, with no problems reported.
I have been searching through these forums for over 2 weeks now, and I have not seen anyone else report such a problem. I use my XP desktop much more than my Vista laptop, so I'd really like to fix this situation, but I don't know what else to try.

Don,
Thanks for all of your suggestions. I tried them all, but the problem remains exactly as it was. To properly document my efforts:
In Bridge's Preferences, I Purged and Compacted the Bridge Cache, then changed it's location to D:\Bridge_Cache (D:\ is a second physical internal SATA drive).
I can not tell the exact size the Cache is set to, but the slider in Bridge's Preference is very close to the left end (10,000) of the slider.
The Windows Page File is set to 3072 MB min and 4096 max, and it is entirely on the D:\ drive. (I have 2GB of physical RAM in the PC.)
I defragmented the C:\ drive using Diskeeper 2008 Pro Premier, and even ran a Boot Time Defrag.
Rather than set some exclusions for Norton Anti-Virus, I jsut disbled that Virus checking program for all of my experiments.
I deleted the Bridge Preference File by holding down the Ctrl key as Bridge was restarted.
I even deleted the entire contents of the C:\Windows\Prefetch folder. I then rebooted the PC - twice. I then re-disabled Norton Anti-Virus.
The PC is approaching 3 years of age, but it is a 3.2 GHz Pentium D machine with 2 GB of RAM and two internal SATA drives. Every other application that I run on this machine responds reponsively. Again it is only the FIRST image file that I have Bridge hand off to Photoshop (or Camera Raw) that takes forever. The second and subsequent image files take a second or two.... That doesn't sound like it's an "old hardware" problem to me.
I'm willing to try anything else that you, or anyone else would like to suggest.
Thanks

Can a script be written to take the next 2 files in a folder and place them on a background image..then saving with the first images filename..?

Hello all, I hope you can help.
In Photoshop I have a problem to overcome and have delved into the world of scripting..
If there is a quick way to produce the following could someone help me with some pointers?
Here is my situation..
I need to produce a photograph proof card, these are for a double image option so cause me a headache compared to just creating an action..
This proof card really is just a set of two different photographs placed onto a background image.
I would produce two different images of the same person and name them exactly the same except they are suffixed with an A or B to keep them together, these would be in a folder with approx 500 other images for example (250 x two of each person)
My preference for the process would be done in the following sequence:
1/ Open the background file jpg (which is sized at 2400 x 1800 pixels @ 300dpi)
2/ Load the first image from the batch file and place this.
3/ Get the filename of the first image and create it as a text layer and write it below the image at 10 point text size.
4/ Create another copy of this layer and change the font to 3of9barcode font, however the font needs an asterisk before the text then again after it. e.g. *filenameA*
Only the first image has the need for a barcode as they are for the same person. This is at 18 point.
5/ Load the next sequential image from the batch file and place this.
6/ Get the filename for the second image and as Item 3/ create a text layer below at 10 point text size.
7/ Place a png overlay with my copyright information over the images (I need to do this twice, once for each image)
8/ Flatten the images and save the file in a new folder with the same filename as the first image.
I can do this in Lightroom with the exception of putting the barcoded text, and the filenaming, this is because the background image is used as the identity plate and the filename is not based on the data from either photograph..
Can anyone shed some light on where to go from here?
Kind regards
Bryan

Photoshop Scripting-wise this seems fairly "easy".
But I would recommend creating a template file (that already combines background image, png overlay and the Type Layers).
Maybe data driven graphics would also be an option …

When I export my Indesign document to an epub why is the first image smaller than the rest?

All of the images are intended to be full page, and appear so in Indesign, however when I export the document to an epub, and view it on the iPad, the first image displays at about half the size of the other images.
When creating the images in photoshop I ensured that they were all the same size and have not had this problem with any of the other epubs that I have made so far. Am I missing something? Any advice would be gratefully received! I work for a very small not-for-profit organisation that publishes books for people with learning disabilities and we are still feeling our way when it comes to producing ebooks!
Thanks in advance,
Hannah

HI Hannah,
May i know what are your cover page settings while exporting...?
Is your document facing or non facing pages.
Hope there are no size related settings done to the first image in Object Export Options under objects sub-menu.
Because these are the prime settings that can affect it somehow.

Only the first image of table appears

Hello,
my problem concerns dynamically added images in templates designed with Template Builder 5.6 Build 45 for Word 2002 (10.4219.4219) SP-2 and Oracle E-Business Suite 11.5.10.2.
My template includes a simple table with an image field containing an URL. I created a dummy image with alternative text like url:{image_field}. The URL itself exists and works in the browser. Running now the report with example data as XML publisher admin, only the first image appears, followed by all other rows showing the same image. It’s always the first one that is repeated (of course I made sure that each element contains its specific URL). I also tried to use the concatenated string for building the specific URL at runtime, but in vain.
Is there anybody out there with a good idea?

I'm not sure what's going on, but I'm having a similar yet different issue with slideshow images. I have a full screen slideshow on a tablet site with 2 slides in it, but one of them shows up white/blank in preview. I've ensured both images are in the layers and assets and I've deleted the slideshow and started from scratch twice already. What's interesting is that if I move the images' order within the slideshow widget in the layers panel, I can see either one, but not both in rotation in the slideshow. I just did this same slideshow for the mobile version and that works fine, so I'm stumped.

How can user return to main scene on a portion of an image that is 20 inches wide, rather than being sent to the first image all the time.

I have a 24 inch wide image in the main scene, which is cut up into six smaller images, all clickable. When a user clicks on one of these smaller images they are taken to a second screen. However, when they click on the Go Back, they are always sent to the first image, not on the image that was clicked on. How can I get the Go Back to actually go back to the image clicked on?

Actually, that's AS1 that you're using. You have an enterframe function running as code in the frame. In AS2 it might go something like this:
stop();
// you need two variables that exist outside of the functions...
var tempX:Number;
var diff:Number = 0;
// this function will loop on frame one and control the movement of the large movieClip
// I simplified the code from what you provided
this.onEnterFrame = function() {
    if (_xmouse>750) {
        diff = (_xmouse-750)/2;
    if (_xmouse<50) {
        diff = (50-_xmouse)/2;
    if (_xmouse<=350 && main_text._x<=0) {
        main_text._x += diff;
    if (mouseX>=450 && main_text._x>=-1200) {
        main_text._x -= diff;
    if (main_text._x>=56) {
        main_text._x = 56;
    } else if (main_text._x<=-2300) {
        main_text._x = -2300;
// when you click on the large movieClip, the current position is stored in a variable...
main_text.onRelease = function() {
    tempX = main_text._x;
    gotoAndStop(3);
// this is the for the button to return, it will position the large movieClip using the stored value from the variable...
goBack.onRelease = function() {
    gotoAndStop(1);
    main_text._x = tempX;

Is anybody else having their Adobe AIR iOS app crash within the first second of opening it?

Is anybody else having their Adobe AIR iOS app crash within the first second of opening it?
I am using iPhone 6, iOS 8.1.3, with a development certificate.
With Adobe AIR SDK 16.0.0.283 and now with 17.0.0.93, after compiling the app (whether in release mode or debug mode), before the app getTimer() can ever reach 999 milliseconds the app will crash. No matter what code I have, it is just crashing before the runtime can ever reach the first second.
Anybody else having this kind of behavior?

Chris,
Thanks for your prompt reply. I have found the way to reproduce. It is about interfaces, and when I try to call a method through an interface the app crashes. I think that it is related to having an interface with many parameters. I have logged the bug here:
Bug#3935199 - iOS App crashes when calling an objects method through interface

IPhoto Slideshow: Sometimes the slideshow starts at the last image, rather than the first. How do I ensure the slideshow commences at the first image?

iPhoto Slideshow: Sometimes the slideshow starts at the last image, rather than the first. How do I ensure the slideshow commences at the first image?

Is this a slideshow played directly from an album or Event or one created in the slideshow mode?
If it's the former that's been a problem for a many users. There hasn't been a firm fix found for it as yet.
There is a workaround. Put the photos in the order you want, select them all and use the Photos ➙ Batch Change ➙ Title to Text menu option. Put in Slide and check the box to add a sequential number to give you Slide-01, Slide-02, etc.
Now when clicking the play button at the bottom of the Album or Event window the slides will play in the order Slide-01, Slide-02, etc.
The best workaround is to use the iPhoto slideshow mode to crate the slideshow. There's been no reorts of similar problems in that mode.

First timer. Just installed Time Capsule. The first backup looks like it will take two days at the pressent speed. Can I close MacBook Pro and have first back up continue, and can I unplug and plug in at work without affecting the backup?

I'm a first timer on this (or any) help site. I just installed Time Capsule. The first backup looks like it will take two days at the present speed. Can I close MacBook Pro and have first back up continue, and can I unplug tomorrow and plug in at work without affecting the backup?

Hi Oneinspirit,
Time Machine backups can be paused by choosing "Stop Backing Up" from the Time Machine icon on the right hand side of your menu bar ( ). Once you're ready to resume the backup, you can choose "Back Up Now" from the same icon.
Start a backup: Click the Time Machine icon in the menu bar, then choose Back Up Now.
Pause a backup: Click the Time Machine icon in the menu bar, then choose Stop Backing Up.
OS X Yosemite: Start, pause, and resume a Time Machine backup

JMF - Frame grabbing keeps yielding the first image

Hi!
I am capturing images from a webcam the following way.
push_buffer_stream.read(buffer);
image = buffer2image.createImage(buffer);
pixel_grabber = new PixelGrabber(image,0,0,width,height,pixels,0,width);
pixel_grabber.grabPixels();
It works fine but, when I reexecute the code a second time, I always end up with the first image.
I must have missed something...
Thank you!

try this:
FrameGrabbingControl fgc = (FrameGrabbingControl) player.getControl("javax.media.control.FrameGrabbingControl");
BufferedImage img;
Buffer buf = fgc.grabFrame();
BufferToImage bufferToImage = new BufferToImage((javax.media.format.VideoFormat)buf.getFormat());
img = (java.awt.image.BufferedImage)bufferToImage.createImage(buf);
java.io.File f = new java.io.File("c:/frame.jpg");
try {
javax.imageio.ImageIO.write(img, "jpeg", f);
catch (Exception ex) {

One way to test is to Safe Boot from the HD, (holding Shift key down at bootup), run Disk Utility in Applications>Utilities, then highlight your drive, click on Repair Permissions, Test for problem in Safe Mode...
PS. Safe boot may stay on the gray radian for a long time, let it go, it's trying to repair the Hard Drive
Reboot, test again.
If it only does it in Regular Boot, then it could be some hardware problem like Video card, (Quartz is turned off in Safe Mode), or Airport, or 3rd party add-on, Check System Preferences>Accounts>Login Items window to see if it or something relevant is listed.
Check the System Preferences>Other Row, for 3rd party Pref Panes.
Also look in these if they exist, some are invisible...
/private/var/run/StartupItems
/Library/StartupItems
/System/Library/StartupItems
/System/Library/LaunchDaemons
/Library/LaunchDaemons
Open Console in Applications>Utilities, check the system log for the date/time of the last problem & next startup for clues.

Why doesn't Photoshop display the full image on open?

I'm using Photoshop CC on a MacBook Pro with OS X 10.9.2 and an external monitor, and when I open an image, it is partially hidden by the display window - scroll bars appear along the sides of the image display window. It's a little annoying, but hasn't been a big problem - I can just resize the display window. However, when I run a script to place an image, the image is placed in the center of the window rather than the center of the actual image, so the placed image ends up being cropped off the base image. The images I'm using are not large, 650 x 296 pixels at 72dpi, and take up less than 1/4 of the screen at 100%.
I've tried adding scripts like http://www.ps-scripts.com/bb/download/file.php?id=10&sid=adf04fde6ee2c 103cddbc41220d6c3b3 and http://morris-photographics.com/photoshop/scripts/view-pixels.html, but they had no impact on the opening of the files.
How can I get the display window to show the entire image automatically when I open it? Thank you.

I'm not familiar with coding script - do you have a suggestion as to what I might try? The Fit to Screen script works when I open an image from Finder, but it does not activate when I run a Automate Batch. The placed image still gets cropped.

The first image I open in photshop takes a minute to open
