"We're heading towards winter here in the UK and still no update. The good news is that all of my pupils can count up to 58 in French and do so regularly as this is the time it takes to load."

Andrew Tyler replied to Rob Jacklin's discussion Slow loading in the group The new SMART Notebook 11
Rob Jacklin commented on Colleen Meulstee's blog post Smartboard Issues"I'm having this issue with one of my Unifi 45 projectors. Was there ever any resolution to this? I also have checked all of my cords and wires. Over heating is the likely culprit.
Did routine maintenance fix the problem? As an aside, why would…"
Obe Hostetter replied to Rob Jacklin's discussion Corrupt Notebook files"Good reminder to have files backed up in more than one place. Dropbox is one of the most popular. "
Rob Jacklin replied to Rob Jacklin's discussion Slow loading in the group The new SMART Notebook 11"Any word on a release date for this yet?"
Rob Jacklin replied to Rob Jacklin's discussion Corrupt Notebook files"Come to find out, the teacher had a very BAD flash drive! The drive eventually corrupted everything on it including Word, Excel, and PowerPoint files. Thanks to those of you who walked through the process of trying to fix archived files via the link…"
Rob Jacklin posted a discussionCorrupt Notebook files
Under the heading of "Things I wished I would have known them that I know now:"I now know that Notebook files are archive files and archive files are really prone to becoming corrupted! The more you transfer them from one place to another, the more likely they are to be corrupted (according Smarttech tech support). So an unsuspecting teacher who is saving all of their hard work on a network drive or a USB drive is actually increasing their chances of losing their work. The best practice…See More
Cathy Grochowski replied to Rob Jacklin's discussion Slow loading in the group The new SMART Notebook 11"Steve, you wrote an excellent critique on the SMART website a few months back (I think it was the SCT hidden vault, I cannot remember). You nailed most of the issues head on. I hope they really consider your observations when they look at…"
Steve Hasselberg replied to Rob Jacklin's discussion Slow loading in the group The new SMART Notebook 11"Everything is a tradeoff. Not only is NB 11 slow to load, it also consumes much more memory. I usually had several files open at a time, now I can't load so many at once. I am more than a litte frustrated."
Cathy Grochowski replied to Rob Jacklin's discussion Slow loading in the group The new SMART Notebook 11"Hi Rebecca. I am a SMART Certified Trainer so I present to administrators initially (to set up a future training), and then I use the SMART Technologies' presentation files to train staff. Unfortunately, the SMART training…"
Andrew Tyler replied to Rob Jacklin's discussion Slow loading in the group The new SMART Notebook 11"Thanks Rebecca, I actually have a dual problem in that I teach in different rooms. This means taking my laptop with me. Problems with docking and undocking mean that I end up have to reboot the laptop at the start of the lesson and then wait for…"
Rebecca Penina Simon replied to Rob Jacklin's discussion Slow loading in the group The new SMART Notebook 11"One way in the meantime to deal with the slow loading would be to open your NB files in advance (if you can do that) and just minimize them. Then just maximize the file you need from the bottom of the screen. Regarding the FULL Page view…"
Cathy Grochowski replied to Rob Jacklin's discussion Slow loading in the group The new SMART Notebook 11"Thanks for the good news, Andrew! I figured that would be the way it would happen. They'll tweak things. I also wonder about the FULL PAGE view issue--it annoys me no end to have to scroll down in Full Page view (i.e. that is not my…"
Andrew Tyler replied to Rob Jacklin's discussion Slow loading in the group The new SMART Notebook 11"I've just had word from Smart! Bored to say that it should be fixed this fall/autumn in service pack one."
Nina Glime replied to Rob Jacklin's discussion Slow loading in the group The new SMART Notebook 11"We are experiencing the same issue. It is painfully slow. Our teachers are becoming very frustrated. "
Andrew Tyler replied to Rob Jacklin's discussion Slow loading in the group The new SMART Notebook 11"I cannot see how that would work, if anything it would slow it down. I find this incredibly infuriating and I would seriously be inclined to revert to version 10 if it isn't resolved soon."
Melissa O'Hara replied to Rob Jacklin's discussion Slow loading in the group The new SMART Notebook 11"At a SMART Training in Chicago this summer we were told that clicking on the title screen that appears (and stays on for a LONG time) could speed up the process. Not sure if it really speeds up the loading or if it just feels better when I am…"
