Adobe Animate CC lagging

  • May 6, 2017

Whenever I undo, switch between eraser and brush, or use a long stroke, Animate lags really bad and will sometimes freeze and crash. I'm new to the program, so I don't know how to troubleshoot the issue and I haven't found anything online. I'm using a Turcom TS - 6610 for drawing, but I don't think this is the issue because even if I use hotkeys on my keyboard Animate lags all the same.

Any and all help appreciated.

    reset your preferences by removing

    Win:

    C:\Users\<username>\AppData\Local\Adobe\Animate CC 2017\ and

    C\Users\<username>\AppData\Roaming\Adobe\Animate\2017\

    Mac:

    /Users/<username>/Library/Application Support/Adobe/Animate CC 2017/ and

    /Users/<username>/Library/Preferences/Adobe/Animate/2017/)

    I can find everything up until Animate CC (year - I have 2020). Is there a reason that there is no folder for Animate CC in my Adobe folder? Please help, I cannot work with Animate performing this slowly

    Updated Animate today 12-Feb-2020 ( Version 20.0.2 (Build 22168)). 

    Seriousily lagging when clicking play in editing mode.  Audio playing normally, visuals and timeline playback lag extremely slowly.  

     

    Computer specs have been were highly optimised from standard iMac specs so it shouldn't have this lag.  Adobe please review this lag.

    message 1 contains the preference locations though there are obvious changes you'll need to apply depending on your username and animate version.

    What are your computer specs? You might not have a powerful enough computer to run it.

    Here are System requirements for Adobe Animate CC
