• Why is my computer now slower, with Firefox 4, then it was with the previous version? He stops and crashes constantly. How can I go back to the previous version?

  When I'm on Facebook or a game, it freezes and I have to hit Ctrl alt del, for a response. Within a few seconds more, the same problem occurs. I did not have this problem with the previous version.

• Is the another great category why my computer is slow?

  I get a lot of beach and the General slow balls spinning this month.

  One thing I checked last week my storage status. 237 free GB to 999 GB and 618 for which is the category "other"!  I hate this wave "other" category. Here is a screenshot.

  

  You can see that I have barely keep anything on my internal drive. I don't have a lot of applications. The ones I use regularly is Mail, Safari, Lightroom and Photoshop.

  A few years ago I learned about a procedure in disk utility to completely erase the disk space, but when I went to do, I couldn't find more, as El Capitan got rid of him. Is there something similar I can do?

  Is this large amount of yellow on the bar as alarming as it looks and probably why my computer is slow?

  Thank you!

  p.s. in another thread, I will post about a glitch that happens with my trash. Maybe it's related.

  The function of Secure Erase of Trash was removed to El Capitan. One of the reasons was that it worked as expected. The other is that it reduces the life expectancy of the SSD.

  I would suggest your download and install OmniDiskSweeper. When you rum ODS, it will tell you the names of the files and folders that use the most space. You can then decide for yourself or ask us what can be detected or moved.

  The first step in the process must be a full backup of everything.

  Vista and Windows 7 updated drivers love then here's how update the most important.

  This is my generic how updates of appropriate driver:

  This utility, it is easy see which versions are loaded:

  -Free - DriverView utility displays the list of all device drivers currently loaded on your system. For
  each driver in the list, additional useful information is displayed: load address of the driver, description,.
  version, product name, company that created the driver and more.
  http://www.NirSoft.NET/utils/DriverView.html

  For drivers, visit manufacturer of emergency system and of the manufacturer of the device that are the most common.
  Control Panel - Device Manager - Display Adapter - note the brand and complete model of your
  video card - double - tab of the driver - write version information. Now click on UPdate Driver (this
  cannot do anything as MS is far behind the certification of drivers) - then do a right click - Uninstall - REBOOT
  This will refresh the driver stack.

  Repeat this for network - card (NIC), Wifi network, sound, mouse, and keyboard if 3rd party with their
  own the software and drivers and all other main drivers that you have.

  Now go to the site of the manufacturer of system (Dell, HP, Toshiba as examples) (restoration) and then of the manufacturer of the device
  (Realtek, Intel, Nvidia, ATI, for example) and get their latest versions. (Look for the BIOS, Chipset and software)
  updates on the site of the manufacturer of the system here.)

  Download - SAVE - go to where you put them - right click - RUN AD ADMIN - REBOOT after each installation.

  Always check in the Device Manager - tab drivers version you install actually shows up. This
  because some restore drivers before the most recent is installed (particularly that audio drivers) so install a
  pilot - reboot - check that it is installed and repeat if necessary.

  Repeat to the manufacturers - BTW on device at the DO NOT RUN THEIR SCANNER - manually check by model.

  Look at the sites of the manufacturer for drivers - and the manufacturer of the device manually.

  If you update the drivers manually, then it's a good idea to disable the facilities of driver in the Windows updates,
  This leaves ONE of Windows updates, but it will not install the drivers who are generally older and cause
  questions. If updates offers a new driver and then hide it (right click on it) and then go look for new ones
  manually if you wish.

• Why is-Premiere Pro CS5 slower on my system than Premiere Pro CS 4?

  I just upgraded Production Premium CS4 Production Premium CS5.  Have Windows 7, 64 bit OS, 9 GB ram,

  Processors Intel quad I-7 (over clocked to 2.90 ghz) 2.67 with hyperthreading.  I have nothing of any real substance

  running on my system in addition to Adobe.  I've just loaded in a ton of DVC PRO HD 60 images and am editing 30 minutes

  program.  Once I am in Adobe first Pro CS 5, it works quite well, everything works well in real time.  However, the time

  I click away from Premiere Pro as on my desktop, then try to click back in the Premier Pro, my screen goes white, Premiere Pro says

  "do not answer" in the title bar and everything freezes for a solid minute.  4 CS do not at all.  Anyone know what is happening?

  Eddiem TKS.

  The goal is to help and solve problems for all parties involved so that we can all be more productive.

  I never said or implied at all this:

  To say there is no problem with CS 5 software is just ignorant happiness and to be honest, deteriorate distorted.

  So... I'll put this another way for you then.  I will not have any issues that you and Sacha face with P2 files in particular.

  They review they rank, export etc...

  I have an ongoing project that has 54 GB of mxf source files.  Not a question that sounds like something that you mentioned above.

  It's a lot of files or a large project... I don't know compared to your projects... but combined with mixed graphic files more seq TIFF and tgas, wavs more notice of AEFX... it certainly adds to the top in my system.

  My material is not super computer. This is not even a system RAIDed.

  Must report... I go really far, or, to and from something else that applications of the Adobe Suite in my Suite CS5 but often many of them are open at the same time.

  I had a system glitch that caused 'go a little sleepy' apps, when left UN attended.  It was an advanced power management framework. (some what hidden)

  I also have a NAS, but this isn't for editing where to.  IT has Media Junction in my configuration between suites for the file archive and transfer only.

  Re: Why is-Premiere Pro CS5 slower on my system than Premiere Pro CS 4?

  My experience is that I said previously.  CS5 is much faster than CS4.  I suspect that many others have a similar experience to mine.

  So the question you guys are seen as being a little more unique to yourself.

  Good luck

  There are a variety of measures to take to improve your computer's performance and to run faster. First of all, I would recommend checking your hard disk space - you should have at least 15% free space, preferably more for optimal performance. If you have a lot of files big media (movies, photos, music) stored on your hard drive, moving those disc external hard can help speed things up. Also empty your trash for free space. Here are some other tips:

  • Update software and drivers by using Windows Update and HP Support Assistant
  • Update the BIOS
  • Defragment the hard drive (do NOT defragment if your computer has a solid state [SSD] drive, as this may damage it)
  • A virus scanner and remove virus/spyware
  • Close all apps you are not actively using and try to not leave many things open at the same time
  • Use the Task Manager to identify which uses the most system resources
  • Clean the computer fans and vents to reduce the heat
  • Upgrade memory

  These solutions are explained in detail, as well as other useful suggestions, in the following documents:
