Help... InDesign is extremely slow and jumps in front of other programs

In fact, I have 2 problems with InDesign CS3.

1, when I open older files, say that InDesign CS2, or even files that can have images in what I cut and pasted from an older file, my InDesign is extremely slow.  And I just type display showing... it's like everything I try, I have to wait 10 sec for the mac wheel spin until I can do anything.  Even if it's just by clicking to select an item.  Today, I open a CS3 file that I did 3 months registered under a different name, and now I'm having this problem.

2nd, when I go to another application, like Acrobat to review a document pdf, or mail, or one of them really, as soon as I'm in the other program, InDesign jumps right to the front and becomes the active program... does anyone know why this is happening?

Any help would be appreciated.

Thank you

Kristie

I would say that you deep clean your InDesign files that are causing problems - http://indesignsecrets.com/indesign-interchange-format-inx.php

And try these other methods for fixing InDesign when it goes wrong

http://forums.Adobe.com/thread/526991

Also, make sure your InDesign CS2 up to the latest patch and save your file it first.

And make sure you're CS3 is the latest patch too.

You can find those under help > update.

  • After that my computer remained at about 48 to 72 hours, he lost all internet connectivity, IE and Outlook, as well as other programs.

    original title: Internet connectivity problem

    After that my computer remained at about 48 to 72 hours, he lost all internet connectivity, IE and Outlook, as well as other programs. Before that, it works fine. If I reboot, it goes back to works very well for this period of time. I noticed I can shorten or lengthen the time that remains active of programs I run the application, primarily GOAL and iTunes. If I do not use one of the people, he can stay for about 4 days, if I use both what it comes down to 2 days.

    About 2-3 months ago, my computer started to do this. I've been troubleshooting on and outside since then, but as it was not any extreem yet I was not too concerned. However, recently the problem has progressed. It started with she it around every 7 days, so I could live with it. However, I do not restart my computer every day, so I'm hoping to solve this problem.

  • My Mac Mini is extremely slow and any video will start but soon stops and intermittently starts and stop immediately. What is the reason?

    My Mac Mini (end 2012) 2.5 ghz memory 8 GB Yosemite 10.10.5 is extremely slow. I read a few articles on communities, but unable to solve the problem. I plan to upgrade memory soon. In addition, a video game doesn't quite work. It starts and stops in 5 seconds and restarts it for a few seconds and stops completely. An advisor to fix the problem will be appreciated.

    When you see a beachball cursor or the slowness is particularly bad, note the exact time: hour, minute, second.

    ☞ In the Finder, select go utilities ▹ of menu bar or press the combination of keys shift-command-U. The application is in the folder that opens.

    ☞ Open LaunchPad and start typing the name.

    The title of the Console window should be all Messages. If it isn't, select

    SYSTEM LOG QUERIES ▹ all Messages

    in the list of logs on the left. If you don't see this list, select

    Yes, you might think I want this for the games, but no, I have this PC for a long time so I don't want it to be obsolete in a few months and I use game engines so I need this upgrade due to the more advanced over time.

    Sorry to be negative in some areas, but these are the options that I wish to have

    1st choice:

    -Intel I5 (in link above)

    GTX - 750TI 4-6 GB

    -8 GB 2133 MHZ RAM

    -Tell me food if I need to change it.

    2nd choice:

    -Intel I5

    -GTX 980M 4-6 GB

    -16 GB 2133 MHz or 8 gb 2133 Mhz

    -Tell me feeding please!

    3rd choice:

    the least possible but I can;

    Intel I5 processor

    GTX 1060 4-6 GB

    -Tell me power!

    Please tell me if these upgrades will work or not, or tell me another choice which can run top games settings regular 35-60 fps low - med (Cause I can't do high quality games using unity if my PC can't handle)

    Thank you very much!

    Did you get this as a gift?  Here is the care.  With a modest 1.8 Ghz processor (welded) and a set of graphics, which is part of the CPU chip, and here is NO slot for a graphics card.  Not possible to capacity except an increase in two modules of 8 GB RAM.  It has a brick laptop to a power supply.

  • Windows Vista is running extremely slow and will not open the Task Manager or connect to the internet

    I have an older Dell running Windows Vista, and it started fine when I got it, but about a month ago it started very slow and refusing to open any program. I can't get the Task Manager to open to all and internet Explorer refuses to connect. I did a complete analysis of the system through Viper and it came out saying: there is nothing more than a few trogans. He also started a taskbar at the top of the screen. No idea how it happened either.

    I would recommend that you manually download the update from the Microsoft Download Center. Search the Download Center for the KB number or download your update from the following links:

  • After Windows Update on 13/10/11 all reboots Windows is extremely slow and hard drive is on continuously.

    I ran the Windows, distributed update to my PC 10/13/11.  After restarting the computer is so slow as to be unusable.  I am able to get the Windows Task Manager to run, and it sees a minimum CPU (0-10%).  The hard drive light is on continuously.  The computer seems to be tied up access the hard disk.  The machine restarts do not help.  When you try to use Windows Explorer to view what is on the hard drive of each operation takes several minutes to complete.  I tried to launch the system restore to restore to before the update, but it shows a blank white screen.  Often trying to do something with the Windows Explorer I see in the title bar of Windows Explorer (not responding).

    How can I get the machine into a usable state?

    It's a shame that we know absolutely nothing about your system, but it's because the forums MS Answers does not prompt for any information system when a new question is asked.

    You can probably fix your calendar to restore system back to an earlier date, but that would leave you without the updates, so you should really understand what the deal is with them and fix it (eventually).

    Here's how:

    If your system restore page display only the title bar 'System Restore', or your accounts settings page of users shows that the 'User accounts' title bar and the screen where information needs to be is an empty white box...

    System Restore is a frequent target of attacks by malicious software.  If SR was working before and is now afflicted, run some scans and then fix any problems.

    Remember that the system restore is not a time machine.

    Just fix the immediate issuance of the calendar vacuum system restore:

    Looks like your file jscript.dll became somehow not registered so you can re-record it.

    There are probably a few other things that do not work you know yet, so fix them all at once.

    Re-registration of these DLLs is correct, even if they do not need renewal.  THERE

    Click Start, run, and in the box enter orders following one at a time.  Click the OK button to execute each command one at a time.

    regsvr32 jscript.dll
    regsvr32 vbscript .dll
    regsvr32 /i mshtml.dll (it's a look of slash)

    The last order for mshtml load the DLL but can also contain a harmless warning depending on your environment.

    Now check your timetable for restoration of the system and/or the user account settings page.

    After you get through the other 'methods', then someone can help your mounting system, but it will be easier and go faster without wild goose chase if you provide additional information, first:

    Provide information on your system, the better you can:

    What is your system brand and model?

    What is your Version of XP and the Service Pack?

    Your system have IDE or SATA disks?

    Describe your current antivirus and software anti malware situation: McAfee, Symantec, Norton, Spybot, AVG, Avira!, MSE, Panda, Trend Micro, CA, Defender, ZoneAlarm, PC Tools, Comodo, etc..

    The afflicted system has a working CD/DVD (internal or external) drive?

    You have a true bootable XP installation CD (it is not the same as any recovery CD provided with your system)?

    Now make some clarifications:

    Click Start, run and enter in the box:

    Msinfo32

    Click on OK and when system summary information is displayed, click on edit, select all (Ctrl-A), copy) Ctrl + C) then paste (Ctrl-V) the information here.
