CorelDRAW X5 :: Slow When Using File Located On Network Server?
Jan 24, 2012
I've been having a problem with Draw X5 freezing for a few seconds every minute or so. Quite often when I try to drag an object around the page everything stops (program freezes) and I have to wait a few seconds till it starts again. Also happens sometimes when I drag an object to a new layer. Actually it can happen on any action.
All the .cdr files are located on a network server, but today I've come to the conclusion that Draw is somehow referencing the file every few minutes (usually something like just one minute between pauses). And because it's a bit of a slow connection speed between the network and my pc, the program hangs (like its slower to save and load from the network, than my local drive). I've got the Save Backup set to 30 mins so would have thought I'd only get an odd pause every 30mins (and turning off auto backup).
I thought I'd see what a file was like which was located on a local drive and so far no pauses. While I can obviously save to my local drive to work on, then save back to the network, it's a hassle and not ideal as it's harder to track the up-to-date file versions. This doesn't happen with any other program I use, and they're all saved to a network server.
how I can stop Draw X5 looking at the file location until I save or auto save? My system is Win7 64bit 12GB i7 core, Nvidia GTX 460. The program has all the service packs etc. I've turned off the live text to no avail. There is no added junk (colour spaces etc) in the files. It happens no matter what the file size. And it's not my antivirus, as I turned it off and the odd pauses continue.

I have recently installed Corel X6 and have found it to be painfully slow when opening files. At first I had thought it might be a network issue so I copied the file to a local drive and experienced the same problem.
The file is only 819Kb but it takes about 3 minutes to open the file. When I first select the file in the File Open dialogue window Corel just hangs for about 1 minute. It finally responds then takes a further 2 minutes to process and open the file.
I have turned off my antivirus software as I thought this might be a file scanning issue but still the same result.

I have seen that there are multiple threads on this subject, and the reasons given for not allowing it were performance and to avoid several concurrent instances of lightroom opening the same catalog.
However, the network drive solution is virtually the only possible solution when lightroom is installed in a virtual machine. Indeed, you don't support linux, and lightroom users who prefer linux install lightroom on virtual machines. Sharing a folder between the linux host and the windows guest is usually done by exposing it as a network drive to the windows guest. (There are many issues with external USB drives and virtualbox).
Hence, allow for catalogs to be opened on network drives.

I'm having technical difficulty when Saving As in Illustrator, Photoshop and InDesign CS2. I can save to my computer but when I attempt to SAVE AS to my server it will take about 5 minutes and give me an I/O error or corrupt the file or the entire program will shut down. Often I will have to restart the entire computer. I've checked the network lines and they are fine. It only does it to my computer and none of the other 4 in my office.

I'm trying to use the sample script for single network license located at - Script
The script says it's for AutoCad even though it's located under the Revit section of the Wiki. How I can modify this to work with Revit? Something like substitue "acad" with "revit," maybe?

We recently installed the CS3 suite onto our school workstations. The problem we are having is that students are getting slowdowns in Photoshop in terms of waiting for menu drop downs and general unresponsive behavior. The applications are installed locally on the computers but the application data folders for the students are redirected to the main file server. As more students use Photoshop (>16) the slowdowns become more noticeable. Sniffing the network packets we are seeing a large amount of small files being opened and closed back to the application data folder on the server. I guess my question is, is there any way to force photoshop to use a local application data folder for all users? The network & file server they are writing to is quick but I suspect not quick enough for all of these small files.
Workstations: XP Sp2 Core2 Duo 2.33ghz 2Gb RAM
Photoshop 10.0.1 CS3 Extended

My render servers slow down after ca. 20min (I don't know the time range, yet.)
They render in mental ray a frame in ca. 2-3Min... after 20min it slows gradually down to a exorbitant render time... The scene complexity do not change very much!
Maybe it depend on the fact that i render on windows 8 "release preview". With the older "Consumer Preview" i have no trouble.

We're an IT company that installed a new NAS for all the data in a architectural office.They are using AutoCad 2011 / 2012 / 2013LT / Revit 2011
Since we installed the new NAS and copied all the data from the old one, opening and saving files takes too long. Sometimes the files hang while regenerating. Saving can take up to more then 4 minutes.
Other applications, for example photoshop, work fine. Copying files from the local disk to the network drive, even moren than 100MB works fine.All computers have windows 7 and the NAS is from Synologie.We tried reinstalling AutoCad but that doesn't solve the problem.We tried setting the savefidelity to 0 but that doesn't solve the problem.

So since we installed CorelDraw x6 the one file we have been working on is a long text file and it slowes every thing down drasticly.We did think updating would work so we did that and it still lags.

I'm using windows XP with Photoshop CS.
Whenever the network cable is connected to the computer, Photoshop start-up load time is significantly longer than when I pull the network cable out.

We have 13 machines that are identical hardware and software; Windows 7 and the Autodesk Product Design Suite 2012 as well as the Vault 2012 Client. Two of these machines are exhibiting the following behavior: Connected to our LAN with access to the internet not loading Vault on startup Inventor loads in 68 seconds.Disconnected from our LAN with no access to the internet not loading Vault on startup Inventor loads in <10 seconds. I have tested this with our AV turned on and off with no changes in the above noted behavior. These two machines loaded Inventor 2011 in repsectable times ~<30 seconds.
Now this tells me that when Inventor is loading it is trying to go somewhere when there is a network connection. But where and what can I do to make it stop?

When you publish to pdf in X5, you have the option to change settings and save them. Where is this file located?
I upgraded to Windows 7 and forgot to write down the settings I saved. So, I want to go to my backup and find the file(s) that stores the custom settings for publish to pdf.

I copy a .dwg to my remote computer and open it. Then .dwl and .dwl2 are created in same local folder as the .dwg I just opened localy. Then I copy the local .dwl and .dwl2 files back to the remote server in the same location I received the origional .dwg from. Why are those files not locked now from everybody on the network that I am remotly away from?

storing and backing up large numbers of images? I need to accesses them on a regular basis and at reasonable speeds. This would be primarily Macs on a network. I need 3 terabytes of storage and an additional 3 of RAID or similar backup. For budgetary reasons the MAC X Serve is not an option.

URL.... "Failed to launch server application" when trying to edit a bitmap out of CorelDraw, only later saw that specific post was for X3. I have the same trouble, only with X4.
To recap my problem: When calling the "edit bitmap" function in X4 - I receive this message: "Failed to launch server application". Paint opens, closes, opens, closes and then the message pops up.
I tested several files, different bitmaps, different dpi's, new files with newly converted bitmaps (filled rectangle to bitmap). To no avail.

After Lion to Mountain Lion upgrade.
Cannot save or save as to Windows server. Due to "program error." Adobe Photoshop CS5. Can save as fine to local drive. Can also drag and drop in the Finder to this server.
This is Photoshop CS5 12.0.4 (current). Once the error "could not save file name due to a program error" occurs, the file disappears from the Windows server.
I think it has something to due with the SMB connection. All other CS5 apps (InDesign, Illustrator, etc.) "save" and "save as" fine. It is also fine performing the same procedure using Preview.

When I try to place this ipart, I get an error saying "The server returned the following information: This file is not found on any server in the replicated environment". This child part is already in vault. I tried to delete the child from Vault and I thought that I would just re-generate it. But, when I try to delete the file from Vault, I am given a restriction, but no explanation.
What can I do to get this back in sync with vault?
This is using Vault 2010.

So we have three computers hooked up here, all running off a main terabyte drive where all the fonts are stored. Bitstream, X3, and X5 are on all the computers. Bitstream works on 2 out of the 3, but on this one when I go to the drop down list in the Font Navigator I only get the option for the Local C and DVD drive. I can log on to the "Network" version of the terabyte drive, but once I get in it asks me for a password when the drive has not set up to be password protected. I have installed service pack 1 and 2 for X3 + the Bitstream patch. I'm running Windows 7.

complete Corel X4 uninstall 3 times already .... even went so far as to reboot the registry to a date before I installed Corel X4 Suite to no avail.
The program has had no issues until the last 2 weeks. The actual issue I am having is Paint works fine as a separate entity however when I try to edit a bitmap from within X4 an error pops up telling me "Failed to launch server application" This is a major PITB as I own a graphics company and this is causing no end of problems

I am using Civil 3D 2013. I work in an office where we have a few different flavors of Autocad (LT, MEP, regular vanilla AutoCAD etc...) and versions (2010 LT, 2011, 2012, 2013).
For the most part there isn't much inter-office drawing coordinate that has to happen, but there is the occasional project where multiple disciplines (Structural, Mechanical and Civil Site) have to share drawings.
The specific problem I am having is when I share my 2013 Civil 3D drawing with a user using 2011 MEP. He gets the typical rectangle for the proxy objects (in my case, my pipe networks for sanitary and storm drain). We've tried downloading and installing various object enablers, but there doesn't seem to be one for a 2013 to 2011 scenario. So I setup my parts to be on layers that he can just turn off. HOWEVER... the actual pipe network (not the structures, parts, labels etc... the network itself) ends up on layer 0. For this specific project, I do the old (ssget "x" '((8 . "0")) search to select all objects on layer 0, add those objects to a selection set (pselect), then in my modify objects dialog I filter for pipe networks, then change the layer to something other then 0.
While this is a workaround that works for me, what I really want to know is if there is a way that I can change the default layer that the network (again, not pipes, structures or text, the actual network) so I don't have to use the workaround. Any thoughts?
P.S. It's killing me that I had to create a new Autodesk login and now all my AutoCAD "street cred" is lost

in Corel Draw X4, we can use the scrapbook docker to see thumbnail of locals files, but when this files are on a network share or if this network share is mapped to local drive, thumbnails does not show up. But when I use File/Open to this network share or mapped drive, thumbnails are ok.
I also heard that in X5 scrapbook is depreciated, is there an alternative?
