Slow GC

Post by DAVID E »

Sometimes a simple action as moving a single image to the trash takes more than a minute staring at the spinning cursor. I do have some 5,000 images in the folder (yeah i'm lazy about file maintenance)... Ideas? GC 8.2 964 OSX 10.7.4

Yes.  Trashed prefs, emptied trash, restarted GC.  Any change I make takes a minute or more of staring at spinning ball cursor.Back to  GC 7.x I guessDavidFrom: Thorsten Lemke <lemke@lemkesoft.de>Reply-To: <gcmac@yahoogroups.com>Date: Thursday, September 6, 2012 1:13 AMTo: <gcmac@yahoogroups.com>Subject: Re: [gcmac] Slow GC   Hello,hmm, did you try to trash the prefs?ThorstenOn 06.09.2012, at 04:14, "DAVID E" <dknodel@swbell.net> wrote:  Sometimes a simple action as moving a single image to the trash takes more than a minute staring at the spinning cursor.I do have some 5,000 images in the folder (yeah i'm lazy about file maintenance)...

Yeah, I had the same problem when I went to edit a PDF the other day.  Finally pulled up something else to do the editing with.  Thought it was just my system....Michael.
