Alt key stuck when using mouse in flash CS5.5 on os x lion. sucks. please help.

Hi there,
since I've updated to lion flash cs5.5 is utterly unusable. The alt key is always stuck in this app when I use the mouse. So if I select something then try to move it, it copies it (as if I was holding down alt key). It basically means I can't use flash for anything..
Has anyone else had this issue and resolved it?
I saw similar forum posts for photoshop cs5 and snow leopard, and even tried the utility provided on those forums. Didn't work.
I removed my wacom tablet driver,
I reinstalled flash,
I shut down EVERYTHING except flash.  Nothing works - alt key is always active in flash.
Is this some kind of bad joke from Adobe? Is there really no fix for this? I can't believe it - honestly...
Additional note - in the key remapping page - it reckognizes the alt key normally, and all other key combinations - it is only when using the mouse that the alt key is stuck.

Hello,
I was having the same exact problems with Flash Professional after upgrading my OS X to Lion.  (Alt/Option key seems like it's stuck / Duplicating objects on stage just by clicking and moving the object.)  My main problem was not being able to curve a straight line with the Arrow tool.  Instead it would create a corner point as if the Alt/Option key was being held.
I stumbled upon this thread before finding my solution so I thought I'd share what worked for me.
Here is the thread I found with the solution that worked:
http://forums.adobe.com/message/5222999
Basically I had a program called AirDisplay installed.  AirDisplay allows me to use my iPad as a second monitor for my Mac.  So if you have this program installed, or one similar to AirDisplay, uninstalling this program may get your Flash Professional to work correctly again.  It certainly did for me to my amazement.
Hope this works for you or anyone else who is experiencing this weird and frustrating problem!

  • LCDS error when using Producer/Consumer messaging to exchange objects between clients. Please help!!

    Hello,
    I decided to test this with the  publish/subscribe messaging. Something I thought would work is not. Here  is the simple example;
                     var btn:Button = new Button();
                     btn.label = "My Button ";
                     msg = new AsyncMessage();
                    msg.body = btn;
                     producer.send(msg);              
    Simple right? Well, this generates a fault;

  • Onscreen piano keys stuck when using midi controller

    Hi,
    I am using a Yamaha PSR-172 as my midi controller. I use SoundTech's Lightsnake as my midi-usb connector. It is supposed to power the Yamaha keyboard from the usb, but it doesn't; I still need to use the yamaha power adaptor. Anyway, my onscreen keyboard displays the notes I play on the Yamaha; they colour as I play them via the controller. Sometimes they continue to make sound after I have released them, and the onscreen keys stay coloured. The sound continues until I change instruments or close garageband. There is no problem with the Yamaha PSR-172 when I use it as a stand alone instrument. Any explanation or suggestion would be appreciated.
    Thanks,
    shirtless

    No, I'm not using a sustain pedal. I'm using the Microkorg and the keys are pretty horrible (sticky and aren't that responsive), could it be this that's causing the notes to sustain indefinitely (until I press the key of the note that won't stop ringing)?
    Yes, it could be that no note off (or similar/equivalent message) is being sent. You should watch your MIDI in/out on the right side of the display in the transport bar and assert if any message is being sent when you release the key. It could be that when you strike it a second time that the note off message is being sent, especially if the electrical contacts are dirty.
    A new keyboard will probably solve that, yes. Unless it also has dirty contacts.

  • PSE crashes when using the Detail Smart Brush  plenty of memory and speed -please advise

    PSE crashes when using the Detail Smart Brush  plenty of memory and speed -please advise

    I have a similar thing happening here, but on my aging iMac8,1 (3.06, 6 gigs of ram, plenty of internal and external scratch space) No wacom here, a Logitech mouse though, running via USB overdrive.
    With me it's undos that are typically causing the hang, and as such, I notice it happening and don't keep clicking around. It hangs for anywhere from 30 seconds to 3 minutes or so and then I can continue working.  Once, it was happening on a document I had open for a while, once it was occurring on a file I opened, made an errant click, and hit undo.  This was a 46.6 MB CMYK tif. I also had it occur while drawing a simple selection with the polygonal lasso - each time it would hang on the third click.  That time, it would unhang, but then the selection would be all messed up and not display what was being selected.
    Each time it happens, I see photoshop pinned at 99-100% in iStat.  Doesn't seem to be related to running out of memory, as there is usually a good amount free when it's happening.  I tried using the internal drive as the swap, and that didn't seem to matter.
    I've been forced to go back to CS5 for the time being, but would love to see this solved.  Is there any further info I could provide?

  • HT3500 I am using Mac 10.4.11 and I am having a problem when my printer wont print what I tell it too. Please Help

    I am using Mac 10.4.11 and I am having a problem when my printer wont print what I tell it too. Please Help!

    A warm welcome to Apple discussions!
    A 2003 iMac cannot support Snow Leopard 10.6; you'd need an Intel processor and that cannot be retrofitted to your Mac. What does "About this Mac" in your Apple menu say  for your processor speed? What does it say about how much RAM you have?
    If the processor is 1ghz or faster, you can run OS 10.5; otherwise, you are maxed out at 10.4.11.
    Also, are you running any commercial ("pay for") anti-virus or security software? They are notorious for slowing most Macs to a fraction of their speed potential.
    A too-full hard drive can drag down performance, especially if you don't have a lot of physical RAM installed. If you single-click your hard drive icon and then do command i, you'll see the disk usage. Looks like this:
    The value for "Used" should be no more than about 90 percent of "Capacity." In the example image, that drive has about 34 percent of its space used and 66 percent free--more than enough. Please post what you see for your Capacity and Used numbers
    There are a few more things we might check but this is a good start.
    Awaiting your information,
    Allan

    Photoshop Elements 8.  "Could not use Clone Stamp Tool because of a program error."  Please help.

    Try this:
    Open your picture file
    Access the clone stamp tool
    Hold down the ALT key on the keyboard and left click on the area from which you wish to clone, then release the ALT key, and click to place the pixels at the destination
    TIPS:
    It is a good idea to open a blank layer at the top in the layers palette, and do the cloning on this layer. Be sure that "sample all layers" at the top is checked. You can change the layer opacity if necessary

  • After upgrading to Mavericks my Mac Pro does not open my double CD drives when I hit eject in the menu bar it locks up (please Help)?

    After upgrading to Mavericks my Mac Pro does not open my double CD drives when I hit eject in the menu bar it locks up (please Help)?

    If you have more than one user account, these instructions must be carried out as an administrator.
    Launch the Console application in any of the following ways:
    ☞ Enter the first few letters of its name into a Spotlight search. Select it in the results (it should be at the top.)
    ☞ In the Finder, select Go ▹ Utilities from the menu bar, or press the key combination shift-command-U. The application is in the folder that opens.
    ☞ Open LaunchPad. Click Utilities, then Console in the icon grid.
    Step 1
    Make sure the title of the Console window is All Messages. If it isn't, select All Messages from the SYSTEM LOG QUERIES menu on the left. If you don't see that menu, select
    View ▹ Show Log List
    from the menu bar.
    Enter "BOOT_TIME" (without the quotes) in the search box. Note the timestamps of those log messages, which refer to the times when the system was booted. Now clear the search box and scroll back in the log to the last boot time after  you had the problem. Select the messages logged before the boot, while the system was unresponsive or was failing to shut down. Copy them to the Clipboard by pressing the key combination command-C. Paste into a reply to this message (command-V). Please include the BOOT_TIME message at the end of the log extract.
    If there are runs of repeated messages, post only one example of each. Don’t post many repetitions of the same message.
    When posting a log extract, be selective. In most cases, a few dozen lines are more than enough.
    Please do not indiscriminately dump thousands of lines from the log into this discussion.
    Important: Some private information, such as your name, may appear in the log. Anonymize before posting.
    Step 2
    Still in Console, look under System Diagnostic Reports for crash or panic logs, and post the entire contents of the most recent one, if any. In the interest of privacy, I suggest you edit out the “Anonymous UUID,” a long string of letters, numbers, and dashes in the header of the report, if present (it may not be.) Please don’t post any other kind of report — it will be very long and not helpful.

    Hi bodeboni!
    You will probably want to download the newest version of iTunes (iTunes 11.1) directly from Apple and install it on your computer if you are having issues updating. The link for the download can be found here:

    I lost my iPhone device, how can I get my data back on another one without using an iCloud backup just back up on i Tunes, Please Help.??

    You can find the backup files and then copy them to a safe place if you are worrying about this.
    iTunes places the backup files in these places:
    Mac: ~/Library/Application Support/MobileSync/Backup/
    The "~" represents your Home folder. If you don't see Library in your Home folder, hold Option and click the Go menu.
    Windows Vista, Windows 7, and Windows 8: \Users\(username)\AppData\Roaming\Apple Computer\MobileSync\Backup\
    To quickly access the AppData folder, click Start. In the search bar, type %appdata%, then press Return.
    Windows XP: \Documents and Settings\(username)\Application Data\Apple Computer\MobileSync\Backup\
    To quickly access the Application Data folder, click Start, then choose Run. In the search bar, type %appdata%, then click OK.
