License Borrowing RWTH Aachen Mac OS X Slow Initializing

Hello everybody,

i'm using MATLAB for University (RWTH) and because I don't want to start up the VPN every time and use MATLAB offline, I borrowed the license for a few days.

But when MATLAB is starting, the initializing-process takes a long time (2 min) while WiFi is on. Without Wifi it starts up immediately.

I have googled the problem and found something about exactly the same: http://www.mathworks.de/support/solutions/en/data/1-2Z18MA/index.html?solution=1-2Z18MA

But even with this help, and a lot of tries, i couldn't get MATLAB starting up faster.

Can anybody help me and tell step by step what to do?

Thanks a lot.

Someone else reported the same thing against R2012a. See http://www.mathworks.co.uk/matlabcentral/answers/50660-why-is-r2012a-matlab-so-very-very-slow-at-starting-up

Bitte wenden Sie sich zunächst an den RZ Kontakt hier: http://www.matlab.rwth-aachen.de/index.php?id=15&sid=0

Die Kontaktperson kann sich an den MathWorks Installationssupport werden. Das können Sie natürlich auch selber direkt tun, aber solche Fragestellungen betreffen oftmal eine Vielzahl von Nutzern und es wäre gut wenn das RZ dann Bescheid weiss.

Perhaps an English answer would be better, because, as you say, this might concern a lot of users.

Okay, also heute kam vom RZ zurück, dass ich mich doch bitte an Mathhworks wenden solle -.-

Dann ist das sicherlich eine gute Idee.
