Open and Save dialogs are painfully slow. Is there a solution?

Open and Save dialogs are painfully slow. Is there a solution?

I pulled this part out of one of the topics Barney-15E linked to. It absolutely works! The glacially slow Finder response has been driving me batty in Mavericks. Each time I restarted, it would take forever to list the startup drive when I opened it. Open and Save dialogues were also painfully slow to respond. Now they all snap open and list instantly. I used TextWrangler to comment out the line in the file auto_master, then ran the automount command in Terminal.
Working workaround:
Use the following statements in Terminal.
sudo vi /etc/auto_master
In this file comment out /net with # (#/net .....)
sudo automount -vc
Fixed.
Confirmed here too both for Preview.app Open file sluggishness and Finder window population. Thanks Snaggletooh_DE!
Couple of notes:
(1) Some folks may be more comfortable using a GUI editor like TextWrangler instead of vi
     a) in the Finder use the GO menu and select Go to Folder
     b) type '/etc' ( without single quotes ) in the Go to folder dialog box and press the Go button
     c) Right ( Control ) click the auto_master file in the resulting Finder window. Select "Open with...." and use TextWrangler ( your choice )
     d) Comment out the line by inserting a '#' ( pound sign ) as noted in Snaggletooth_DE's instructions
     e) Save the file ( probably need to authenticate with your admin password )
     f) Do the 'sudo automount -vc' per Snaggletooth_DE's instructions. Will need to authenticate again.
(2) Notice Snaggletooth_DE described this as a "workaround" because it bypasses an Apple bug. Presumably most people have not changed their auto_master file and it worked fine in Mountain Lion and prior. In other words: If you haven't done so already, please continue to submit feedback and bug reports to Apple for this issue.
Kudos to Snaggletooth_DE for figuring out code is trying to look at network ( NFS ) volumes that maybe don't exist.

Launching the printing of a PDF document, all other programs remain locked

After opening a PDF file with Acrodat Reader, when I click for printing the document, my notebook (window vista) remains blocked for two minutes.
During that time all other programs cannot be run: for example I cannot even run the Task Manager.
I currently use Acrobat Reader 9.4 but I noticed the same problem also with previous releases.
Do you know if this behaviour is normal or I have some setup problem, or virus, or what else?
Thanks a lot.

Hi Duncan,
Please confirm if you Are using Acrobat.com online services or Acrobat software?

Rahul

All other programs are slow when Thunderbird is open!

When I open Thunderbird, all other programs become very slow, including Mozilla Firefox. My programs work fine when Thunderbird is closed, and slow down as soon as Thunderbird opens. Why is this happening? I'd like to simply leave Thunderbird open all the time, but this slowdown of the system prevents me from doing that.
The programs (including Thunderbird) all work like they should, they are just slow when Thunderbird is open. Interestingly, Thunderbird itself is not slow at all, even with other programs open.

So you do not have an issue with Thunderbird itself.
You may have other programs working in the background or updates occurring.
Is Thunderbird using IMAP or pop mail accounts?
Maybe, you have alot of emails in several folders and therefore using alot of memory to run.
Try some reorganizing.
'''If Pop mail accoun'''t, set up Archive Options and archive anything over one month old by month and keep folder structure; including the Sent folder.
* see info: https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/kb/archived-messages
Then only open the Archive folder if necessary.
* Create folders and move emails out of the Inbox into those folders.
* Delete emails you do not want.
* When Inbox is empty, right click on Inbox folder and select 'compact'.
Empty Deleted and Junk folders and then right on each folder and select 'compact'.
'''If IMAP mail account''' you could select to only download the most recent emails instead of all emails.
* see info : https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/kb/imap-synchronization?esab=a&s=synchronize&r=0&as=s#w_configuring-synchronization-and-disk-space-usage
If you have a IMAP gmail account, do not subsribe to see the 'All Mail' folder. This is gmails archive of all of emails, so subscribing to this folder only doubles the amount of disc space used.
see more info under 'All Mail at this link:
* http://kb.mozillazine.org/Using_Gmail_with_Thunderbird_and_Mozilla_Suite
By doing the above, you should have smaller folders and so use Thunderbird will use less memory.
Then you would need to see if this helped. You may need to check to see if you have other background processes going on that are not connected to Thunderbird.

Go to the Edit -> Preferences-> Playback
In The bottom section of the page click the drop down menu by Play Audio Using and select Windows Audio Session or something other than "Direct sound" or whatever it displays. Click Okay. This worked for me! I hope it works for you too!
Thanks,

PS in CS3 will not open, even as admin, all other programs work, and PS did until recently. W7-64

All other programs in CS3 work just fine. I got PS to open last week when I got this probem, by right clicking and selecting "run as administrator".
I have run a "repair" through install programs in the control panel. there was an error that some shared components did not install properly, (I only repaired PS, not the other program)
I have made sure windows drivers are up to date.
Turned off anti-virus when repairing install
Turned off anti-virus when trying to open
Googled and searched on web - found nothing other than run as admin - which I did - and it did not work.
Error message: Windows cannot access the specified device, path, or file. You may not have the appropriate permission to access them.
I am not a geek, but would appreciate any help, since this program has worked on W7 un until recently, and last week I got it to open by "run as administrator", but alas, that does not work today.
NANCY. Thanks to any for assistance.

You need to fix the permissions on whatever "device, path or file" this erro message points to. This could be anything from trying to load a plug-in, access a device driver (printer, scanner, tablet etc.) to color profiles to your Photoshop scratch file. Impossible to tell. Check your Event Viewer. Perhaps there's some clue there...

Unable to open indesign after migration to new mac all other programs open and work.

Unable to open indesign after migration to new mac all other programs open and work. Why? Running Yosemite 10.10.1 Indesign CS5

The keyword is "migration." Migrating or copying files for Adobe applications usually does not work. Not all of the necessary subsidiary files are copied to the right location.
You'll need to first clean up the mess with this tool:
Use the CC Cleaner Tool to solve installation problems | CC, CS3-CS6
Then download an installer from here:

Why doesn't the rotate gesture on my trackpad behave as it used to for switching between tabs when it works the same with all other programs besides Firefox?

Why doesn't the rotate gesture on my trackpad behave as it used to for switching between tabs when it works the same with all other programs besides Firefox?
I changed the about:config to make the rotate gesture move between tabs, and it worked great for well over a year. Now it behaves erratically as described here:
https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=877598
It used to be very controllable to move one tab over, now it is erratic and moves quickly and to unexpected tabs regardless of how slow I do the rotate gesture. This is the main reason I use Firefox over Chrome and I would like to continue to do so unless there is no fix to this.

Just set the browser.gesture.twist.threshold to something around 15-25.

My HP photo smart C6280 printer does not work with CS6. Any Help?

My HP photo smart C6280 printer does not work with CS6. Any Help?

How does it "not work"?
What OS version are you using?

When I hit shift 3 instead of the number sign I get a backslash it is only in Firefox all other programs my keyboard is fine

All other programs are fine, keyboard settings on my computer are fine.

Do you have multiple keyboard layouts installed?
It is possible that you have switched the keyboard layout by accident.
* http://support.microsoft.com/kb/258824 - How to change your keyboard layout
Windows remembers the keyboard layout setting per application and you may have changed the keyboard layout by accident via a keyboard shortcut.
* http://windows.microsoft.com/en-US/windows7/The-Language-bar-overview The Language bar (overview)
* Make sure that you have the Language bar visible on the Windows Taskbar
* You can do that via the right-click context menu of the Taskbar: Toolbars > Language Bar
* Check the keyboard language (keyboard layout) setting for the application that has focus via the icon on the Language bar
* You need to do that while Firefox has focus because Windows remembers the keyboard layout setting per application

I am unable to open my Photoshop program after installing the entire Creative Suite: Premium Production 6. All other programs work, but with Photoshop it says that the program is "locked or in use by another user". I need this fixed immediately.

I am unable to open my Photoshop program after installing the entire Creative Suite: Premium Production 6. All other programs work, but with Photoshop it says that it "Could not open a scratch file because the file is locked, you do not have necessary access permissions, or another program is using the file. Use the 'Properties' command in the Windows Explorer to unlock the file." Then I select "OK" and the next message comes up "Could not initialize Photoshop because the file is locked, you do not have the necessary permissions, or another program is using the file. Use the 'Properties' command in the Windows Explorer to unlock this file. I installed all of the programs on the same day from a CD. I need this fixed immediately.
I am not interested in switching to Creative Cloud, so don't even suggest it. I spoke to Mashmi (or something to that effect) on the "Support" Chat and there was absolutely no support. Useless actually.
Thanks in advance.
