OS X running very slowly
We recently purchased the creative cloud cs6 and installed it on the office mac. The computer immediately began to run very slowly and hang up often. After uninstalling CS2, we rebooted and the computer went to a blue screen. This lasted about 15 minutes. It finally got to the desktop but now the computer will lock up if more than one window is open. It bogs down at the 3 - 4 window opening. Whether it is Illustrator, e-mail, internet etc. whenever, the 3rd or 4th program is opened, it gives an error that the program is not responding. This was not the case with CS2. In fact, most of the time our graphic artist had Photoshop, Illustrator, Indesign CS2, the internet and her e-mail open all at the same time and it ran fine.
The system specs are as follows:
-OS X 10.6.8
-2.53GHz Intel Core 2 Duo processor
-4GB of DDR3 SDRAM
-320GB Harddrive
-NVIDIA GeForce 9400M graphics card
What could be causing this issue? I have already contacted the Adobe Help desk and they have no record of similar issues. In fact, they state that based on the system requirements there should be no issue with opening numerous applications at the same time. Could there be an uninstall error with CS2?
Any help would be greatly appreciated!
