After I restart either of my Dell laptops which both run MobileMe (Apples' email/calendar sync tool used with iphones/pads) I notice a huge slowdown in performance and applesyncnotifier.exe is usually consuming 50% of my dual core processor (I assume this is the max it can grab).I've seen all kinds of posts on how to remedy (kill the applesync process, place an eventlog trigger to kill process etc etc) but nothing that's actually resolved the problem. Oddly killing the process seems to have no effect on the software, which seems to run/sync ok regardless.Apple stated a few times to change the sync period from 'automatic' to daily or some other timeframe, but this doesnt seem to solve things, just mitigate a little.It's a real pain having to kill this PID - of course it may well be ropey software, but I've upgraded MobileMe a couple of times and no change. Also I'd expect the problem to occur a lot more often out there than it seems to.
i'm running a windows 7 home premium 64 bit, and for some movies, the video will start in-sync for about 40 minutes, then slowly get farther and farther out of sync, making watching the video un-watchable after another 10 minutes. but it does not do this with all video types. it also does not do this with netflix, Internet, or anything else online.
i'm running a geforce gtx 660m, all drivers are up to date. the files that work are: mp4, files that don't work are: mkv, avi
those are the only files i have tried. it's done this since i got this computer a couple months ago
windows 7 intel core i7 860 asus p7p55d-e 2x 1 tb hd 8gb of ram radeon 7950 vga card
so it started about a month ago, i would be playing eve online or minecraft.. and all of a sudden.. i would get a blue screen of death OR a computer lock up.. bac then i had 2x radeon 5770 cards... i replaced that with a radeon 7950 (amazing card btw) computer still keeps locking up, so i run memtest to see if its the ram, it passed, . so i turn off the pc. the next day... i get a startup failure in win7, i tried to repair it many times but it wouldnt.. so i took out my SSD hard drive and bought a traditional spin hard drive.. so far..only 1 blue screen .. something to do with ATi.. so i stopped running catalyst control center (i like to keep an eye out for my vid card temp) as well as speedfan (just in case) doesnt run anymore... so now my computer doesnt randomly freeze... ever.. HOWEVER.. when my computer is under heavy load (i run 8 clients of a game called EVE Online).. it will freeze.. no mouse movement.. nothing...total freeze.. this also happens when i load up the universe map in eve online (i guess that only goes to people who play eve)otherwise.. computer now runs stable if i avoid those 2 things and 1 more thing to add.. i obviously had to reinstall windows 7 on my new hd so it is a fresh install?
GPU utilisation is just 42-58 % while heavy games like GTX 4 episode from Liberty, also in crysis 2 many times it is just 70-80% at 1600*900 resulution and quality is maxout in COD MW3 and black opps it fails to maintain 60 FPS constant in Battlefield 3 Armod kill utilization is just 43-73 % while FPS are below 30-45 and why effective memory is 3000 Mhz instead of 6000 mhz
while few days back my gpu utilization was 90-110 % in bf3 but in 2-3 days it is making me sad why gpu utilisation sucks in most of games while it was working fine during 1st 5 days when i buy is my gpu is half-Dead and go for replacement ?? my specifications are i5-650 , 16 gb 1333 MHZ ram , and PCIe 2.0 slot and 3000 mhz memory is a problem of PCIe 2.0 ?? [URL] and many times it underclock gpu , utilisation 30 % and fps 20 , hollyshit I think i made big mistake buying gtx 660ti instead of HD7950
Its almost as if the entire system waits on the disk IO to complete before doing anything else. In fact those of you older folks would remember that using floppies on windows XP caused this exact same issue. I would have thought that a modern computer should not be running into this kind of issue.

Whenever I'm multitasking or doing something simple as scrolling over a compacted windows to see multiple, mini windows pop up down on the task bar, the screen freezes for a moment then comes back to how it was. Is there any way to fix this?
I think it's caused by some factor that limits the CPU power usage, but I'm not good with computers so it's not the best assumption, and I don't even know how to change it.
On a windows7 64bit HP laptop, I have ESET Smart Security and I'm behind a router, also use spybot and malware bytes to check out system on a regular basis. I have this problem recently where the windows search service seems to constantly increase cpu usage until my memory is low. I have 8gb of Ram installed and I have just disabled all indexing and Windows search service. However I would like to be able to enable the indexing again and I feel like there might be some malware that is evading malware bytes and eset. I noticed that when I downloaded GMER rootkit revealer and some Nirsoft utilities last week that this began to happen. I have heard that Nirsoft tools are safe so I downloaded a bunch of them to check out my registry and since then I have had this cpu process and memory problem. I have ran hijackthis but i don't see anything superdifferent about my log.I would like to post my log somewhere and have some more people check it out. Where can i do this on this site?
My PC has started running very slowly and I have narrowed this down to SVCHost running at 100% cpu in the task manager. Using Process Explorer I can see that this process is hosting Power, PlugnPlay and DCOMLaunch services.
I have run several anti-virus applications including malwarebytes and nothing was found.
I have a laptop with a 4gb RAM.. suddenly the laptop got slow..so slow that i was'nt able to move my cursor...i saw the processes list and found that 'svchost.exe' was using exorbitantly high amout of memory...i cannot post the screenshot of the task manager..as my system has become unresponsive..
I find that one instance of svchost.exe consistently consumes around 200MB of RAM. I find this to be a problem at times as I do a lot of memory intensive work including Photoshop, etc. I've attached a screenshot showing the services attached to this particular process.
Any idea which of these services might be a likely culprit? Are there any I can safely disable to free up some RAM? 200MB seems quite high for that.
I have Windows 7 Ultimate Service Pack 1. The RAM is 2 GB DDR 3 1333 MHz. for some reason when the system starts it´s already consuming the 60 - 65% of the RAM. The programs that start with the OS are KAV 6 and Internet Download Manager. So it should not be consuming that amount of memory. I can´t buy more RAM in this moment, so what can i do?
I have a Dell Studio 1558 that runs Windows 7 Premium. I also have an ATI Mobility Radeon HD video card, a Core i5 processor, and 6GB of memory. I play World of Warcraft and the game runs for about 15 minutes quickly and then slows to a crawl each time. Is there something wrong with the system or something I can do to fix it? I can provide more system info if needed.
It all starts when i try to open one flv video downloaded from you tube to my desktop.when i try to open it in VLC player.it doesn't do anything ,laptop goes hang.I checked my task manager and found that explorer.exe is consuming 100 % of cpu .I exit my explorer by endprocess and later on on activate from new task.I some how manged to delete that file. But now problem is that when i try to open some video file,the moment i right click the file ,explorer.axe goes 100 percent and system hangs.Now every time i have to exit explorer when this happens.Now I am gone mad with this and want to get rid from this . I have found many remedies from net ,but didnt make it all success.
I have set up WMC on Win 7 x64 and all is well apart from the EPG.
The correct time is shown, but the programmes are all a few hours out. If I select a channel, the correct programme shows, but when I go back to the EPG, they are all out of bonk again.
I was wondering if it was possible to sync two folders together so that if I change anything on one of the files, the other one will automatically sync to it. I want to use this for my Mincraft Servers, as I would always have a safe backup of my servers.
i'm using windows 7 32-bit, i7 processor, 4gb ram, onboard audio (with realtek) and a geforce gt220 video card.when i play a video the audio is always faster than the video. i use umplayer, so fortunately i can use the plus or minus keys to sync everything up. however on Internet or other online videos it's almost always out of sync, as well as when i watch something streamed from my pc to my xbox using windows media center. i'm thinking it's either a windows 7 problem or a hardware problem. i've googled it and found nothing similar with a solution.oh, and i use avira anti-virus, not norton or mcafee.
got a slight problem. got an acer m5201 comp which i have changed a few parts and upgraded to windows 7 premium 32bit. i have a nividia 9800gt gfx card
all the audio from films, websites and itunes are out of sync by about 1second.
I have email accounts set up in Windows Live Mail on my work computer and need to sync those with accounts on my personal. I've created the account on my personal and have received all the emails in my inbox... but is there any way to export and import a whole account so the sub folders are synced too?
Is there such a thing? Chrome and FF import of bookmarks and backup is seamless. It took me half an hour to update IE bookmarks. And sorting them A-Z. is there an easier way? I'd like to start using IE some again--but this is WAY too labor intensive.
I can't get my WD Passport to sync with my Windows 7 laptop. The WD site tells me the WDSync software is not compatible with windows 7 and that is true. ActiveSync won't recognize my WD Passport either. Is there a patch or other free software I can download to keep my Passport and laptop synced?
In last SEVEN days I've added music in WMP on my desktop pc. It took me so much because I watched out to get all of the artist, album, genre, year,etc... information correctly and believe me doing it with 70GB of music was pain in the a**. When I finally finished it, I wanted to transfer all the music (with all mp3 data) to My notebook WMP via LAN-cable and I couldn't do it. I only can transfer all the music to my notebook but when i add it to my WMP, files don't have the information mentioned above.
Recently, within the past couple of weeks or so, whenever I play a video (avi, wmv, mp4) in Media Player (or VLC) the the video and audio is out of sync. It's not out by much, but it is clearly noticeable. Oddly, if I play them in Media Player Classic they appear to be in sync (or as near as).I know for a fact that these videos used to play fine, so it's not a problem with the files themselves. I haven't knowingly downloaded any codecs or anything else that may have caused this, and I've scanned extensively for viruses and spyware.I want to reiterate that up until a while ago the videos played fine, so it's not a spec problem. For information, I'm running Microsoft Windows 7 Ultimate 64-bit on a G840 2.80GHz dual core with 8Gb of RAM.Internet searches have so far turned up nothing. I'm tempted to fish out my old XP machine and test the videos on there,
I have a 2003 SBS server and several users all on Windows 7. One of the users just got a new Sony laptop with Windows 7 Pro, his existing laptop was also Windows 7 Pro.
I am trying to make same file share available offline again and the files sync with no errors in sync center. But when the user goes offline all the files have a red X and the files are partially transparent. All the KB's and threads I can find involved people getting access denied errors, but I'm getting no sync errors.
I tried formatting the offline files database earlier and I made a dozen files available offline. No errors but again red x's when he went offline.
I have Skydrive for Windows installed. Copied a folder to the Skydrive location, shows up as a Skydrive sub-folder. All the files in the folder were immediately uploaded to Skydrive, but new files are not being uploaded.
sync files between my desktop and notebook, and using other devices. I have been using SyncToy for quite a while, with fairly good results. Sometimes though I seem to get edits (deletions and overwrites) that I really do not want. Is there a better solution for syncing large amounts of files? I am starting to try out using SkyDrive, but I�m not totally comfortable with putting sensitive documents online, also I often use my notebook without any internet access and I would like to be able to have a local copy available. Optimally I would like to be able to have a master drive that both desktop and notebook sync their local versions to.
I keep getting an error when I attempt to upgrade to windows 7. It says I have to upgrade my HP USB sync driver, that driver isn't even supported on Vista. I can't find it anywhere on my computer, and it won't continue the upgrade till it's fixed. Any suggestions?
