  • Message "Not responding" when recording in CS5

    Today, it is the first time that I had the chance to get out my new illustrator CS5 for a drive and have found that the more often than otherwise, when I save the file, I'm working on I get the error message "Not responding" appear. My system is a brand new Dell quad core, Q955-@ 2.83GHz with 8 GB RAM running Win7 64 bit.

    The files that I use are located on a network drive, and I wonder if this may be the problem. If I let it go for a minute or two that he corrected himself, but I find it a bit odd, given the software and materials, that I am running.

    No idea where to start?

    Given that disconnect him persistent mapped network drive, my problem went away. So far so good.

    To clarify my question, I saw intermittently a message "Not responding" in the title bar of Adobe Illustrator CS5 when you try to save a drawing. By clicking on file/save would immediately show a wait cursor (blue circle in Windows 7) and the Save dialog box does not appear.

    Although the error "not responding" appears, my PC does not seem to be busy doing anything (no use of the CPU for the executable to HAVE it in the Task Manager).

    After some searching on Google for hung in Windows 7 when recording applications, I came across the following Microsoft link:

    http://support.Microsoft.com/kb/313937

    According to Microsoft, Windows 7, when you save, first checks the availability of network resources (persistent mapped drives liked). Applications like MS Office may crash when you try to save if these network resources are not available. Windows 7 seems to also not 'hear' well with older versions of Windows (such as Windows 2000 for example). The guillotine registration number can also be caused by a slow network connection to network resources.

    In my case, I had:

    1 - a slow link between the guillotine Windows 7 PC and a persistent (ie - reconnects when connecting) mapped network drive.

    2 - the network drive is also hosted on a Windows 2000 Server (Windows 7 is not always play nice with Win2K)

    After disabling the group policy that this drive mapped to the login time, my question GOT hooked disappeared. I can still reach the reader via a shortcut on the desktop of the PC Win7, and which seems to work very well. It is only when this resource has been "localized" as a shared drive that this become a problem for Windows 7.

    Anyone having this problem should also verify the possibility of losing your network connection to a shared resource (as the network adapter passes in mode "sleep" because energy saving options and thus break the connection to the network).

    Hope this helps others.

    It is not an error so it's just to tell you that, due to low memory, the program that you are using is not respoding or takes to respond when you click Open program, it gives u this menu to move forward.

    therefore:

    You can either increase your memory or pagefile or having to run fewer programs at the same time. If you are running many programs you can remedy this by minimizing your startup programs and also make sure that your system is clean.

  • Problems with the .exe file programs + System Restore does not respond when you click

    I have Windows Vista. This problem started a week ago. I tried at first to use my "ccleraner" already installed, but this program does not open when you click on it.

    programs as needed. Use this method for other necessary - DO NOT ASSUMER one

    2.
    Another method is to use them:

  • Does not respond when you click on a link hyper

    When I click on a button or a text link or similar - often nothing happens. When you connect to some sites (but not all), it will not respond to the entry of name and user password.

    Sometimes Firefox takes forever to answer - other than it is as quick as a Flash.

    If I didn't know any better, I think have been affected by a Trojan horse - but I deleted Firefox twice now and all the files associated with. I rebuilt my iMac from scratch with a freshly partitioned drive and performed a clean installation. In addition, my iMac running the latest version of Kaspersky - as it has done since purchased in 2009.

    Currently, it has been uninstalled, until I have an idea of what to try. He had 2 plug ins installed 3 weeks ago - Colorzilla and Firebug3-, but as I understand it, they are "certified" as add ons for firefox.

    Any help would be appreciated, because I depend on firefox for the development of websites Wordpress based.

  • Thunderbird crashes and returns "Not responding" when I click on the button "Get Messages"

    When I run Thunderbird, it immediately starts "get" messages from the server "pop." All messages are correctly without problem.

    However, as soon as I run the function 'Get the Messages', Thunderbird locks up/gel/accidents. In the header, it reads then (Mozilla Thunderbird (no response).

    If I close the program and open up, it opens in a frozen state. If I search for all files "Popstate.* *" and delete them, Thunderbird and then opens again and start automatically "get Messages"... and she does it with success.

    However, the cycle continues - that if I run the "Get the message" function, it crashes again.

    I checked my firewall and temporarily removed my anti-virus program. However, this has not solved the problem.

    Help, please! Thank you!!!

    Chances are that the culprit is your antivirus software. Don't let it analyze your Thunderbird profiles folder. Do not scan incoming and outgoing messages. Don't let it scan attachments. Remove any antivirus modules, it can be installed in Thunderbird.
