Is you AC slow to get going? Then try...

[Rick Thompson]

My AC was opening very quickly, once upon a time, but became very slow to the point of getting very irritating. I was thinking it was a library issue, then I remembered what I use to know.. clean up the old preferences... at least using Mac OS. Now it is back to it's refreshing opening. I'm not sure what the main culprit was, but would like to know should anyone have any idea. I suspect it was in the Work Environment, but I don't understand this stuff. I had many (40 -50) ProfileSets, maybe due to the fact AC doesn't seem to keep the settings very well. Most times I open the Work Environment it has gone to custom in most areas. I ditched all the old AC11 preferences too. The spinning beach ball was occurring after the library loaded. The time had grown to over a min, and now is back to 15 sec. or so. While this shouldn't happen (bug to me), it does.

So, I suspect I am not the only person this happens to, and I wonder how many people just live with it.


(ps.. to those who do beta, those preferences had already been trashed and I was having this problem).

Your welcome Chazz, however without Rick's and adytc's and others posts I would not have ever had thought to look at this.

what do you mean by "(about 16M - solo project)"
Surely not 16 minutes?

16 Megs, probably.

Hi vistasp
Hope your doing well.

"16 Megs, probably :-)"

Maybe, but seems like the grammar implies that it is only associated with:
"2. Project file load time is the same.."
As the mystery unfolds... when Solitaire returns...
I can hardly wait.

Apologies, my mistake. As vistasp picked up, my project file is 16M and a solo project.

No, I beg to differ Solitaire
I think it's my misunderstanding:-))
Seems perfectly clear now that you
enlightened me.

Well yeh, and I think it's not so little actually.

Ok, here's the deal from here.

Since I cleared, just the other day, (as stated, see above/below/whatever) these nasty little beggers, I had twelve again!
Yep, you guessed it, that's how many times I've tried to be "green" (turn of the machine), and this is what I get for it:-(((?
As an update (as promised) my machine ("welcome to the machine"),
started to go lolly gaggen again on shut down.
So even though only deleted 12 this time, it did quicken shut down again a bit.

Hey GS, Welcome to the Machine!
We all know who said that.
Right?

Sorry Bier, couldn't resist.

This whole thing makes me comfortably numb.

And, I don't recall my machine having any closing file issues, just opening files???
