Veeery long time to open

Hello,
My Adobe After Effects CS3 takes a veeery long time to open. I double-clicked the shortcut on the desktop for it exactly 20 minutes ago from now, and it's still not open. I remember it opening within about 1 minutes months ago, and then recently it took about 5-10 minutes, but now it's worse than ever. Any possible things I could try to minimize the load time?
Thanks,
Andrew

Your disks are full, I'd say. Check the AE prefs and clean out the Media Cache. Startup takes forever, because AE is looking up and veryfying each single file in the cache. If you never changed it, it defaults to C:\Documents and Settings\You\Application Data\Adobe on Windows XP for instance. If you look it up, you surely wil lsee several gigabytes of files In addition, do some generic system maintenance by ways of CCleaner and defragmenting your drive. also look for auto-saves, render logs and other stuff. Of course Andrew is also right - flakey fonts, CoDecs and even modified graphics card settings can sometimes have the weirdest side effects on system health....

  • DWCS3 takes a long time to open!

    HI,
    As you read on the title, DW CS3 for Mac Leopard is taking a
    long time to open. When you click on the application to open the
    program, you get the typical DW green screen, the version # (9.0
    Build 3481) but below that, all that stuff that read as it opens up
    is not there. Looks like is trying to locate a file or folder and
    after a few minutes the application finally opens. What's that?
    Yesterday it was working fine. No idea what could it be. Any ways
    if any of you kindly give me any suggestions of how to fix it, it
    would be great.
    Thank you so much for your time.

    Hi George,
    There is a post below about CS4 taking ages too, others with
    CS3 are
    suffering. I would hazard a guess its having problems taking

  • Excel files with fields linked to other excel files take a long time to open from SharePoint library

    Trying to track a problem for a user.
    Most of the documents opened from our SharePoint libraries appear to open in a timely fashion.
    But...one user has noticed an issue, and I just noticed something with her files that are a little less common than other stuff we've seen.
    she has a lot of pricelist excel files.  there are some master price list files, and then other files that link to fields from within the master files.
    the files that contain links to other files appear to be the ones that open very slowly.
    the files are being opened via excel itself, not the owa viewer or editor.
    is there a trick to setting up either the library, the site, site collection or web app... or some client-side setting that affects how quickly/efficiently excel will open files that link to other excel files shared within sharepoint?

    Hi  carphuntin_god,
    According to your description, my understanding  is that when you click a hyperlink which redirect to other files , the file are opened very slowly via excel client.
    How about you download the same file and open it using excel client? If it is opened quite fast, the issue should be caused by some third-party add-ins in the office program or antivirus soft.
    Here is a similar thread you can have a look:
    http://social.technet.microsoft.com/Forums/en-US/ff0c5306-5300-4010-a760-c4cca320b6fc/excell-file-taking-long-time-to-open-and-edit?forum=officesetupdeploylegacy

    If you want to open the files using excel service after click the link in the excel file, you can create the hyperlink in the following way:
    General Syntax:         
    http://<server_name>/<site_name>/_layouts/ xlviewer.aspx?id=<workbook path>&range=<location>
    For example:              
    http://CorpServer/DeptA89/_layouts/ xlviewer.aspx?id=http://Mfct/Stats/Shared%20Documents/Parts.xlsx&range=Widgets!A1:F25
    For more information: 
    http://office.microsoft.com/en-001/sharepoint-server-help/using-hyperlinks-in-excel-services-HA010173679.aspx
    If you want to open the files using Office Web Apps after click  the link in the excel file,  you can create the hyperlink in the following way:
    http://<server name> / <site name> / <library name>/<your file name> ?web=1
    For example:
    http://sp/Shared%20Documents/exceltest.xlsx?Web=1

  • Webi report takes long time to open

    Hi All.
    We have created few reports in webi and we have used variables in these reports.
    But while opening that reports into BI Launch pad browser, it is taking long time to open. e.g. 5 to 7 min or more.
    Please help to resolve this issue.

    Hi Anand R,
    A couple of questions from my side:
    1) Does the webi report contains any chart
    2) Are webi reports which are slow only on a single .UNX
    3) How about the network.
    4) Are you using IE
    5) Are you in 3.x or 4.x
    Could you try any of the below:
    1) Increase Tomcat memory pool to 4096Mb
    2) Stop and restart Tomcat once.
    3) Try with other browser
    4) Use something like Fiddler to understand the network speed
    5) Delete cookies in the browser
    Try the other options told by our SCN colleagues aswell..

    There could be lots of reasons:
    Have there been server changes with the migration?
    Have there been any changes in dynamically calculated dimensions?

  • Long time to open tab "change history" of  business partner in Web_ui.

    Dear experts!
    Long time to open tab "change history" of  business partner in Web_ui.
    4 records were opened for 10-20 seconds
    http://imglink.ru/show-image.php?id=22083a6a576f78c66c86863bf6b0573b
    1. In what may be the reason?
    If the records are many, the discovery may be more than a minute.
    2. Is There a report for the purification of the " Сhange history" over a period?

    Hello Dilip,
    One more alternative would be to increase the time out parameter in ABAP environment.
    The steps to change this parameter:                                                                               
    1) txn: RZ11 -> enter the variable name rdisp/max_wprun_time                      
    2) Display -> Change value -> Then input the value you would like        (ideally 3600)                                                                               
    PS:                                                                          
    1) Don't set this value too big, otherwise general performance will be       
    influenced, since lots of dialogue process will be occupied for a long       
    time                                                                         
    2) This parameter can be changed dynamically                                                                               
    Once the parameter is set please test again. You can try incremental         
    values and test which one does not give timeout error.                                                                               
    please refer to the note 25528 for more details about RZ11.   
    Hope this helps!
    Thanks and Best Regards,
    Shanthala Kudva.
