Traktor 2 with S4 very slow on Lion

    I've updated to Lion on my mac and Traktor does some weird things. When I load a song, the color-ball comes up and it takes 2-3 seconds to disappear. It does the same sometimes when I just scroll... It is very upsetting because when I work fast and try to load the next song quickly I cannot, because I have to wait... And I'm afraid that it will stop once...
    Previously I used tractor with an S4 on Leopard and it was flawless! There were no mistakes, it never stopped. Now I'm not sure of this.
    Do you have some suggestions? Is it because of 64-32 bit problems? Is it because of Lion simply? Have you ever met this problem?
    Waiting for your answer, thanks,
    StereoNoize

    I use Lion on a 2011 MBP 13 inch, and works perfectly. Traktor pro 2 and S2. Maybe you should reinstall traktor.

    I've tried that!
    I have 2 MacBook Pros and I have this problem on both one.
    First I thought that there was something wrong with the collection importing, but on my other mac there was no importing...
    Shall I go back to Snow Leopard?

    Try a clean install with Lion.

    If it is a problem loading tracks(not sure about scrolling)
    Are you by chance using an external har drive?
    I dont use Lion but this sounds like an ext. Hd problem.
    If so an easy way to check is load from laptop hd and see if it still happens.

    I don't use any external stuff. All songs are on my macbook.
    It is very slow when I load a track, when I search (scroll) and when I load a song...

    Every time I'm afraid of stopping...

    I've did a clean install, but it's the same...

    Pls, someone help me! NI? Any statement?

    Thanks,

    StereoNoize

    What Mac do you have? I have read that Lion screws up older Macs, and some people should stick to Snow Leopard.

    I have a MacBook Pro 2,2, 4GB... This cannot be old, or weak for Traktor 2..., can it?

    Minimum requirements for Traktor:

    Mac OS X 10.6 (latest update is 10.6.8) or 10.7, Intel Core Duo, 2 GB RAM

    Your MBP 2,2 is able to Run Lion, but can use a lot of RAM at times.

    Which processor do you have?

    Try going back to Snow Leopard....

    Also, bare in mind these are MINIMUM requirements.

    It's 2,26 processor...
    I've gone back to snow leopard. Problem is sill up...!
    Here's a video of the issue, sometimes it takes longer to get back from "thinking" mode...

    NI! Any idea? My previos black macbook was perfect, I've bought a second hand macbook pro and I have this problem since that. I can bring it to an apple store to check it, if there is some hardware problems.

    What audio settings/latency do you have, make sure multi core processor support is turned off, that seems to use a lot of CPU.
