CS3 Incopy crashes on Windows 7

Hello everyone,
I just upgraded my pagination system to use CS3 under Windows 7.
I am now experiencing nightly InCopy CS3 crashes on both 32-bit, 4 gig Windows 7 machines and 64-bit 12-gig machines.
My vendor has traced the InCopy crashes to notes inside teh story/file possible at certain locations.
Are there any know issues with CS3 running under 32 and 64 bit Windows 7 that could be related to notes modes with CS3 Incopy?
Any help would be appreciated.
Malcolm

Vendor software. We went from CS2 on Win2000 machines to CS3 on Windows 7. New software uses CS3 Incopy and InDesign to create pages. Getting sparodic situations where InCopy woukld crash so we have to unlock files, strip out notes, and then we're ok.
Other sites are on Windows 7 but most are on XP.
Just wondering if there are any known issues with CS3 on Windows 7 even though Microsoft has not certified CS3.
May have to take the drastic step of going from Windows 7 to XP.

  • CS3 seizing/crashing with Windows 7

    I have bought a new computer running Windows 7.
    My CS3 keeps seizing up when using some tools. I can't be precise because when it seizes I am so annoyed that I forget to log which tool caused the problem but an educated guess  - it's non specific. It can happen anytime.
    It opens Ok and I start working on a photo and then, at some time during the process,  it seizes up.. I have downloaded all applicable updates.
    I am assuming it is Windows 7.
    If it is then it's a problem because I do not have any other computer.
    I appreciate that CS3 was not designed for windows 7 but I am sure that Adobe must have upgraded CS3 to cope with new windows software. Or have they?
    Any advice please?
    As a secondary question - If CS 3 not compatible with windows 7 - Is CS4 compatible?  I really can't afford CS5.

    What the devil are you talking about, Andrew?  All the Microsoft x64 operating systems run 32 bit software perfectly.  They always have.
    Not only that but 32 bit Photoshop can actually access much more RAM than its normal 2GB  limit on a Windows x64 operating system, because each 32 bit application is given access to more of the full 32 bit address space than on a native 32 bit operating system.
    And 2.6 GB of RAM is more than plenty to run Windows x64.  A well set up system actually takes up only about 0.6 GB.
    Andrew, you should actually try things yourself before making statements.  May I suggest you invest some time and effort into a virtualization environment, such as VMware, so that you might gain some personal experience with such things.
    It is in NO WAY "just plain stupid" to use an x64 operating system with 2.6 GB of RAM.  It may be all the computer hardware that cymruboy has can handle, and it's the best system he could have chosen for a variety of reasons.
    While I agree that more RAM may help, I suspect that cymruboy will see better Photoshop operation just by turning Photoshop's memory usage limit down to about 60%.

  • My CS3 keeps crashing on windows 7

    Hi, I have recently had my work laptop updated to windows 7. I have CS3 and installed this onto my laptop. It now keeps coming up with the error message saying "windows experienced a problem closing Photoshop". I have uninstalled and reinstalled and the problem is still happening. I have googled this issue and someone said open this via adminstration, tired this and this also didn't work. Can anyone offer me any advice?

    Hi Snugglebums2002,
    The time Creative Suite 3 release, Windows 7 was not threr hereby Photoshop CS3 and any other CS3 applications
    is not tested on the operating system.
    Please refer the system requirement for CS3 individual application and suite.

  • AE CS3 crashes in Windows 7 RTM on project close

    Anyone else experiences this, or knows a remedy?
    I run Adobe CS3 Master Edition on Windows 7. Ever since the pre-RC beta build 6800 from more than a half year ago all the way up to RC 7100 and 7232. There was never a problem with After Effects.
    Now I purchased the RTM (7600), aka the real thing, and now After Effects crashes every time I close a project. Needles to say, this is very annoying.
    What is up with that?
    Technically, the Adobe forums are the worst ever. It's hard to find a browser that doesn't screw everything up.

    I hope your salary will be secured soon.
    Last active directory has always been the same, it's a different drive, no need to backup/copy on reinstallation of Windows.
    All files can be fully read and written. If I save before I quit (read: crash), the project is saved.
    I don't see the problem with my permissions, but you are definitely on to something. I tried saving the project on my desktop, and then it didn't crash on quit. Save it back in the project folder -> crash on quit.
    Here are my permissions for the project folder. Full Control is on overkill.
    Authenticated Users (Full Control)
    SYSTEM (Full Control)
    Administrators (Full Control)
    Users (Read and List only)
    The users I use in this case is an administrator and (obviously) also an authenticated user.
    I'm pretty good with computers but I've never used gpedit.msc and on first look I cannot see something remotely related to permissions or group settings. All about scripts?
    The 'Take Ownership' used to be in the context menu but apparently they removed it on the final version. The properties-permissions sais the owner is S1-1-21-something, which is obviously the previous owner (previous installation of Windows). I changed it to my user, and now it works!
    So three things:
    Thanks!
    Any idea why? It already has 3 times Full Control permissions
    I like to give permissions to the entire drive for everyone (linux: 777), so all subdirs inherit those permissions and when I swap the drive between different computers (or users) I don't have to redo this for all folders I use. Logic sais it's already done by those permissions above, but reality sais AE will crash.

  • InCopy Crashes when trying to open InDesign file.

    InCopy just spins when trying to open an Indesign file and will eventualy cause InCopy to crash. When InCopy is then reopened the file will be recovered but the only tab available is layout view, both story view and gallery view are missing. The editor needs story view to make corrections.
    The designer sets up the file with InDesign CS6 v. 8.0.1 on a mac w/osx v.10.7.5 the editor was using InCopy CS6 v.8.0.1 but has received new hardware and is on v8.0.2 windows 7. One of our Editors does receive this message Adobe InDesign is missing required files, Please reinstall.
    We have upgraded editors hardware to allow more resorces.
    Please advise what may be the cause.

    Why would one of your editors receive a message about "Adobe InDesign is missing required files, please reinstall"? Aren't they using InCopy (not InDesign)?
    Re the InCopy crashes, it sounds like the INDD file might be damaged. You can test this by having the InDesign user create a new test document and export one story to the workflow. See if the InCopy user can open that INDD file over the network, check out the test story, make a change, save it, check it back in, and then the InDesign user update the story on their end.

  • Photoshop CS3 Extended crashes on MacBookPro

    Photoshop CS3 Extended crashes on MacBookPro
    I'm working on a MacBookPro Intel Core 2 Duo 4GB RAM OSX 10.5.2 Eng
    The software is Photoshop Extended 10.0.1 and a Creative Suite 3 standard is also installed (Photshop is not installed because I've already had the extended version, both english versions)
    Photoshop crashes very often and it doesn't save in psd file format. In that case the message is 'Could not save 'xxx' because there are too many files open. Try closing some windows and try again.'
    When I choose New Document an error appear 'Can't read the document presets file.
    When I choose a new Workspace the error is ' The command "Select" is not currently available'
    Can't work!...any suggestions?
    Giuseppe Andretta

    Giuseppi,
    Some followup thoughts...
    25GB scratch disk is quite small. RAM may not have changed, but it's possible it's not seated correctly or that it is not working properly.
    Booting off your System disk's Disk Utility and then booting off the DiskWarrior disk and running repairs should be standard/routine maintenance, and should be run anytime your system is not "quite right". And they should be run immediately before any system or application updates. And then repeat Disk Utility right after.
    Most of us cannot read crash logs.

  • Please Help! InCopy crashes when I try to export...

    Please help me!
    InCopy crashes when I try to export to PDF. The file I'm working in was originally an InDesign CS3 file that was converted to InDesign CS4 when we upgraded our software. We've run into some BIG PROBLEMS with CS4, and so we've exported our CS4 InDesign files as CS3 .INX files so we can work on them in InDesign CS3.
    I've isolated that the problem is only when I try to export pages that have a large ad that goes through the gutter of the newspaper spread. All other pages PDF fine from InCopy CS3.
    I opened an old CS3 file (that was never converted to CS4), and double checked that I can still export the whole file to PDF including the pages that have ads going through the gutter.
    Is this a bug with CS4 files? Does anyone have any suggestions on how to fix the problem? NOTE: I already tried splitting the box for the ad into 2 separate boxes (one on each page), but InCopy still crashes when I try to export either one of the pages that has content through the gutter.
    Thanks for any help you can give me.
    - Valerie

    I've moved your question to the Adobe ExportPDF forum for that service.

  • CS3 Illustrator crashing problem

    Hello all,
    Lately my illustrator cs3 has been crashing every time I try to save a new file. It is so frustrating after doing all the work and can't save. I work on Windows XP 2002 system. Can anyone help?
    Thanks so much!

    Hi Jacob, Just so you know, I was in a hurry and no way was able to buy an expensive product to do my artwork project. I couldn't find older TRIAL versions to download without 3rd party attached  programs & BS that could be bad to do.
    But, I need to go back on the forum to say that I rebooted to try one more time and it worked. Don't know why it didn't work the first time around because it was a fresh open of Illustrator, hadn't been working on it for a month then the first time didn't work.
    I don't have time to go back on the forum right now got to leave for work. You can mention you heard this from me if you want so that people aren't misinformed.
    thanks for replying

  • Adobe Bridge CS3 is crashing everytime it attempts to open.

    I am running a MacBook Pro with 10.9.4.  Today when I attempted to open Bridge CS3, it crashed. No error. Just crash. Repeatedly.  I have deleted all Adobe and reinstalled, but Bridge continues to crash. I have used the "shift/option" menu to reset prefs, etc, and it still crashes. I downloaded a supposed patch for Bridge & installed it even though my APP store didn't want me to, and Bridge continues to crash.
    I'm a photographer and depend on Bridge as my photo browser.
    Any other ideas for me to try?

    Well, I don't know what just happened to the gremlins, but get this:
    On a whim, I held down only the shift key while attempting once again to open Bridge. And it OPENED without crashing.
    I was afraid to let up on the key...but I did and Bridge did not crash. I browsed a couple of photo folders, closed Bridge....reopened it WITHOUT the shift key & it opened. I've now tried that several times and it's not crashing. And while I'm glad it's working, I'm not holding my breath that it will continue to work.  WEIRD.
    I'm going to re-start the macbook pro and see what happens.

    I tried another machine, 64 bit of course, as I want to deploy my application on a 64bit PC, but still got the same problem.
    This other machine was from HP, iCore 3 (4 CPUs) 2.2GHz, 4GB RAM and running Windows Professional 64 bit.
    Now as I see it, it could be a Run-time environment mis-match error.
    For this I tried installing a 64 bit LVRTE from NI, but still no sucess.
    I checked DEP, for all 3 PCs and it was set to the following
    Turn on DEP for essential Windows programs and services only (first option).
    I am confused. I can not find a solution for this and it is really frustrating.

    But I am assuming that when I make the installer, the 32-bit Run Time Engine is appened with the installer, as show below
    Since from the picture you can see its including the support installers from '\Program Files (x86)\'
    The application runs queries to fetch data from database in SQL server 2008, and for that I am using a Microsoft SQL Native Client 2008 R2 64 bit ( this is the only version that installs on either PC, even the one on which I developed my LV Application).
    I am not using any driver, only toolkits for reports - and for that I un-checked the "Remove unused polymorphic VI instances" when making the executable, otherwise LV throws up an exception that share variable are not being included.
    Yes I did reboot every time after I ran the installation.
    Still getting the same error.

  • Firefox was working fine in the morning, after half a day, it just crashed and now every time i try to start FF it crashes, i reinstalled FF, even tryed FF 4 beta, every time same crash report window, and nothing happens.

    After a half day working normally, FF just crashed, and now i reinstall it, even tryed FF 4 beta, and still getting crash report. Cant even start in safe mode, same crash report window pop up.
    Checked for viruses, malwares. Nothing helped.

    Other applications print okay? If so, try deleting the Preview .plist
    You need to look in your user Library/Preferences for the .plist. Hold down the option key while using the Finder "Go To Folder" command. Enter ~`/Library. Delete the .plist(s) for the application.
    If you prefer to make your user library permanently visible, use the Terminal command found below. It does work with Mountain Lion:
    http://osxdaily.com/2011/07/22/access-user-library-folder-in-os-x-lion/
    You might want to bookmark the command. I had to use it again after I installed 10.8.2. I have also been informed that if you drag the user library to Finder it will remain visible.

  • I'm getting popup notices that Firefox has a problem, and Windows is looking for a solution; then it closes Firefox and says Windows will let me know if it finds a solution. No crash report window comes up.

    Firefox is my default browser on my new laptop, with OS Windows 7. I've now had several instances where a Windows popup comes up saying Firefox has developed a problem and may have to close. It also indicates Windows "is looking for a solution to the problem." No solution is found, however, and Firefox is forced to close, with the happy notice that Windows will let me know if it finds a solution to the problem. If there is any tech data on the crash, I'm not sure where to find it, and no Firefox crash report window comes up. I thought it was an anomaly the first time, but this has now occurred at least 4 times in the past several days.

    Well it came installed on my brand new Windows 8 pro w530 I received 4 weeks ago and has never worked. When you try to open power manager it just crashes. If you uninstall it the Lenovo software just keep reinstalling it. If you uninstall the Lenovo PM driver but do not reboot you can then open Power Manager. The minute you reboot the Lenovo software reinstallls the driver. 
    Why would Lenovo install software on a brand new Windows 8 laptop that is broken and useless? Tech support is absolutely no help they transfer you to the software department which wants to charge you to fix a problem that Lenovo created!!! It is crazy!! I was hoping someone here could solve this problem or maybe someone at Lenovo would see this and get the problem resolved. Tech support has been useless. I reported the problem to them at least 5 times.

  • How do I get Fireworks CS3 to work in Windows 7? After installation my internet would not function.

    I installed
    Fireworks CS3 in the new Windows 7.  It seemed to function well.  After a reboot I noticed my internet would not work.  I attempted to resolve the matter but was unsuccessful.  Has anybody had this problem?  If so what is the fix.

    Is Windows 64bit or 32bit?
    I've heard that 64bit Win7 will not play well with Fireworks CS3. Try to run Fireworks CS3 in some WinXP Compatibility Mode in Win7 -- I think this mode is available in Win7 Pro and Ultimate...
    Hope this helps...
