Work with very slow key words.

I posted this problem a few months ago and followed several suggestions, it speeds up considerably, but now it seems to have slipped to impassable speeds.  I restarted and optimized.  Here's the deal:

MacBook Pro 2.4 w/4 GB of RAM, the images are on the external drive, snow Leapord & LR 2.5 in 32 bits.  About 30 000 images in the library.  When I add or subtract a keyword to even just a picture of that roulette spins for 18 seconds, then I'm trying to move down by clicking on the slider and that takes another 11 seconds.  So, basically, a gesture that should take about 1 second takes 30 seconds.

I am train to clean my keywords, but what makes what should be a few days of work for the years, literally.

Thanks for the clues.

  • Recent problem with very slow internet browsing on all browsers Windows Vista Home Premium 32 bit

    Separated from this thread.

    Hi all I'm having the same issues as Theresa in the thread above split. I have Vista Home Premium 32 bit service Pack 2 with all the installed updates (automatically done!).  Within 3 months, this PC at home that was formerly an excellent navigation device became very slow when you browse using IE, Firefox or Chrome. It takes 30 to 50 seconds to load any web page (Yahoo, eBay, etc.). I followed all the instructions suggested to Theresa in SafeMode by Bill Smithers. Resulted in nothing other than a few cookies and Wetherbug I killed. I also run McAfee total protection and Spybot S & D every 3 days with nothing found.

    I have reset my browsers to the specifications of the factory without change.

    Comcast is my internet provider high speed and my speedtest returns 65 - 75 MB/s download and 11 Mbit/s upload very regularly. I connect directly to the bridge. I had Comcast out and they swapped unity Arris of a unit of Cisco beefier but that changes nothing. Other devices on my network domestic perform very well and do not have this problem.

    When I browse a site the CPU spikes up to 88% use in 45 seconds and is stable at 50% usage 1.7 GB memory.

    The only thing I can infer is at this time that something happened to the operating system during automatic updates or some other setting has been changed.  I could use any help or suggestions you may have! Otherwise, I love this OS and have not had any problems. Thanks, Dhoffa

  • Qosmio G10: OS does not work properly (very slow)

    I have the same problem with the CPU. Pc slows down extremely, sometimes it's back to normal, but after a few seconds, it's like hell once again. I tried various OS (Win xp Home, Xp Pro and XP MCE) so far, but none of them does not solve the prob. I tried then to see if I can slow down the CPU manually, but that did not work, either. Kinda funny, because I had no probs virus, nothing.

    Actually I don't really know what I should do now.
    If there is anyone out there with the same problem, let me know, if all is well there is someone who has solved.
    Otherwise, I'll go with linux, maybe that's going to work.

    Anyway, please if anyone has good suggestions...

    Thanks in advance

    Hello

    In my opinion, you should install OS using recovery media. The image content designed Toshiba all drivers necessary, and it should works well. It has been tested and there should not be any problem. If the antivirus application is installed it can slow down the BONE quickly (as in my case).

    Like I said, the recovery DVDs to use for the installation of the OS and enjoy life.

    Good bye

  • Why some keys work with the Shift key?

    It seems all the keys on my work as a small keyboard wireless, including the SHIFT key.  The problem is that a lot of keys do not work when you press the SHIFT key.  If I try a capital of type I or T, I get nothing on the screen.  This keyboard is three years old, but he was hardly used at all.  When I started using it, quite a few keys would not work.  Now, it's just a few keys with Shift.  Any ideas?

  • Windows activation - new hard drive and reinstalled Windows, but will not work with the product key

    Hi all

    My hard drive died so I put a new in and installed Windows on a drive, but when I have just activated and put my product key does not work. In fact, I get this day by putting in and then it says character not aloud.

    Please can someone help? All I've done is put a new hard drive in but guess that Windows detects that the product key has been used on the old, which explains why it won't work on the new. What should I do to activate the key?

    Thank you

    Thanks a lot for your useful replies. I've got in contact with Microsoft and they gave me a key and it worked!

  • Hard disk formatted, freshly installed Windows 8, but it does not work with the old key

    I had bought a Lenovo Z570 two years back, with Original Windows 7 Home Premium.

    When Windows 8 released in November 2012, I had bought and upgraded online for her.

    I had used the Windows 8 since then. Yesterday, due to various problems, I had to format my hard drive, and when I finally managed to install Windows 8 on my laptop again, it does not allow me to activate windows 8 using my normal key (he says that this key did not work)

    It was the key in the email from the seller, and I have an e-mail, which has a Bill to prove.
    I guess this could be due to the PC 1 by purchase clause, however, it's the same PC (more like laptop). So I do not understand why I would not be allowed to activate the software I used earlier on the same laptop still on the same laptop after installing it.

    Please get to me as soon as possible if there is a solution.

    Thanks in advance.

    Hey! Thanks for your help, but I had refreshed my windows 8 in the meantime and connected to the internet after that. and then when I followed your instructions and run slui.exe, it says that windows is activated. so I guess that the problem is solved.

  • ATTR_NO_EDIT_TEXT does not work with CTRL + Tab key combination.


    JoePass:

    I tested the code I posted.  Swallow the key event works for Ctrl-Tab (which means that the text of the control does not get changed when press it Ctrl + Tab).  The callback is made before the control is updated.  That's the whole point of reminders.  If you swallow the KeyPress (as in the code I posted), Ctrl-Tab will not overwrite the text.

    I have attached a sample project which shows how the events of the swallow will help you.  Run it and follow the instructions on the screen.

  • Sticker with the product key Windows under the laptop is unreadable

    Hello Toshiba Help Center

    Please help me solve this problem

    Three years ago, I bought a laptop Toshiba with Windows Vista preinstalled. I also received a DVD with her recovery. I now want to reinstall Windows and completely format the hard drive - however, the sticker with the product key Windows under the laptop is unreadable. So what I did... I formatted my laptop for windows 7 and after a few months, I want to recover my product key and install windows vista pre - with the original product key that sound now
    unreadable...

    Is it possible to get it back by, my laptop series No, or...
    Best regards, TOSHIBA
    IM bluebird.jeff

    Hello, Jeff

    At first, I must say that it is not toshiba Help Center, but user forum created by Toshiba, so if you wait for the response from Toshiba people here you are in the wrong place.
    In any case, in this forum, you can pick up some very useful information and a lot of people here can help you with your problems.

    Return to described the issue.
    Unfortunately you do not understand how it works with the product key and Windows Setup, so I'll try to help you with this.
    Each computer toshiba laptop comes with preinstalled operating system (recovery image) and the product key at the bottom of your laptop belongs to this version. With other words: when you buy the new laptop, you have to pay for hardware, operating system and a license for this preinstalled OS. Product key at the bottom is not a kind of universal product key and cannot be used for activation of another version of Windows.

    You can use the delivered Toshiba recovery disc that contains mage replicated several times and each time you will have activated the operating system. When you use the Microsoft disk for the installation of the OS you must have valid product key which belongs to this particular version.

    In your case product key is for Vista, and you cannot use it for Win7 activation. This product key is... unnecessary.

    If you have any other questions you are welcome.

    My computer has been verified in the service center and no defects of any sore - not any software and hardware, virus damage, no all manufacture faults. The owners of these model please give me advice what to do. I stuck!

    What should I install Windows XP 32 bit or install Windows 2000 or upgrade hardware (memory... whatever)? I won't be disappointed by TOSHIBA!

    Evil appreciate any HELP!

    Hey Buddy,

    Can you be a little more detailed, please? What do you mean with very slow?
    How long it takes so that it starts Windows?
    How long it takes to start an application?

    I have to say that Windows XP 64-bit wasn t popular and there is no official support for Toshiba for this OS. If you use Windows XP, I recommend to install the 32-bit version.

    Did you test your laptop with the factory settings? It works properly with a preinstalled OS from Toshiba?

    I m also owner of the Satellite L300 and I use the preinstalled Windows XP 32 bit of Toshiba. I m very satisfied with this laptop, it s fast enough and need very little energy. :)

  • export using key words in the name?

    Is there a a way to export photos using just a part of the name of keyword?

    I recently took a series of shots at a football tournament and I'd like to export the shots using the names of children, so parents can easily find their child.

    I organized the photos with the following key words:

    Columbus Day

    -GU9

    -Anna

    -Mia

    -Lauren

    etc.

    I only want to export with the last keyword, (Anna-1, Anna-2...), although I could live with something like 'anna-GU9-Columbus-Day. "

    In this way, I can select the entire series and export and download once.

    This time, I select a set, export, select the next series, export, etc.

    Is it possible to do?

    Thank you.

    In the export under "File naming" dialog you can choose the custom name + sequence as a preset in the drop down "Templates".

    For the keyword option go into "Edit" at the bottom of the drop-down list model to build your own naming scheme, choose 'File Name' under 'Image Name' and 'Keywords' under "Metadata". Save a custom preset.

    Again, this one uses all KW, so you can't isolate just the name of the person. If you don't mind given the other keywords in the name of the file, it could work well for what you were after.

    In this scenario, you would be able to export a folder with a mixture of names in one shot and have the name of each person, incorporated in the filename automatically.

    If you have captions and they are relatively short and descriptive enough you can also simply use the caption instead. Is a quick way to do

    1 assign your kw

    2. Select all relevant photos and type a caption (short) - John play soccer at x place 10.20.09 - or even just the name you were after in your original post.

    3. Select your groups of photos using keywords

    4. select everything in each case and replace the word John Joe, Susie, Bob, etc.

    It would take very little time - five minutes to make 10 different legends for 500 photos, for example. You can then export using the legend under the name of file and exactly what you want.

  • Loss of key words to export (LR2 and LR3)

    I have a problem I had since LR2 and have discovered that it continues in LR3.  I hope that the geniuses here can help...

    I have an export preset user who creates a size max JPG and includes it in the catalog.  _Almost_ works perfectly, but there is always a key word or two lost in the translation.

    A specific example, I have a DNG with the following key words:

    "citrus", "Board", "fresh fruits", melon, food, fresh, fruit, half, knife, melon, organic, snack, white wood,

    When I export to jpg, adding to the catalog, the list of keywords is:

    "citrus", "Board", "fresh fruits", melon, food, fresh, fruit, half, knife, organic snack, melon, white

    The last keyword is truncated and does not.  This is not 100%, but is the most common occurrence.  Sometimes another keyword will be also absent, but the last is the most common to lose.

    No problem get subject key words on the new file?

    "citrus", "Board", "fresh fruits", melon, food, fresh, fruit, half, knife, melon, organic, snack, white wood,

    Are there any hierarchical keywords among them?
