Q: Adobe Premire Pro / After Effects SLOW

  It seems the deeper I delve into Adobe Premiere Pro and After Effects the slower my computer gets.

I have been kicking around the idea of replacing the original hard drive with a digital one. I only have my applications on the existing one. Would this possibly help? Any suggestions would be appriciated

 

I have an early 2009 Mac Pro,

OS X Yosimite 10.10.5

Processor: 2x2.26 GHz Quad core Intel Xeon

Memory: 24 GB 1066 Mhz DDR3 ECC of memory

Startup disc: Mac HD

Graphics: ATI Radeon HD 5870 1024MB

 

Many Thanks,

Paul

Mac Pro, OS X Yosemite (10.10.5), 24 GB 1066 MHz DDR3 ECC

    Try quitting Teamviewer, it is hanging.

    Try uninstalling the above using the developer's uninstall instructions. It is most likely 'fighting' the OS for control of the RAM.
