All of a sudden I'm having a problem with CS5 running very slowly.
Whenever I select a tool a window opens on the screen saying either loading or initiallizing that tool
and shows the progress (much like a download) Then when I finally get the tool and try to use it I get
a very long lag time before I see what I've done. For instance when using the smudge tool, I make my smudge and it takes 10-20 seconds for the actual stroke to happen. It's the same with all tools, brushes, eraser, clone. Driving me up the wall.
And the same happens with printing. From the time I give the command to print, it takes about 3-5 minutes for the command to actually go to the printer.
I'm thinking a setting has gotten changed somehow, but I am totally at a loss as to how to fix this problem. Hope someone out there can help!!
BTW - I'm somewhat new to CS5 (6 months) but have been and Elements user for at least 10 years.
