Opening a CC .fla in CS6 replaces symbols and duplicates layers, frame labels and code on compile.

So when I compile an fla in CS6 that I built in CC, It replaces all my symbols and puts "m&#058" in front of all the names.
Not only that, but on compile, it duplicates layers and frame labels within selected movieclips and then spits errors out calling duplicate functions and frame labels as the issue. Has anyone ever run into this?

Figured it out. I had a certain naming convention for my symbols (m:video_1). Turns out that CS6 didn't like the colon and was duplicating my symbols in the library and screwing up a bunch of other stuff too. I changed my naming convention in my library to m_video_1. Adobe take note!

How do I change the "Open In" default from "Photoshop CS6" to "Photoshop CC 2014" in Bridge CC? I'm using a Mac

I have Photoshop CC 2014 and Bridge CC when I double click or Open in Bridge CC Photoshop CS6 opens instead of Photoshop CC 2014. How can I change this dynamic link to open Photoshop CC 2014? Help!

Thanks Gener7, but that did not work.
I also tried opening Bridge’s Preferences> File Type Associations and clicking the Reset to Default Applications button. Then see Photoshop CC 2014 listed next to all basic image formats. but did not work
Also tried this: but did not work
--Open Bridge.
--Use the Keywords panel menu command Export to save your keywords (not in the Bridge or Photoshop folders or their support folders).
--Quit Bridge.
--Hold down the Command-Option-Shift keys.
--Launch Bridge.
--When the small dialog box appears, release the three modifier keys and elect to replace the Preferences and purge the cache.

Can't Open CC project file in CS6

I edited my videos in Adobe Premiere Pro CC, but I can't open the CC project file in Adobe Premiere Pro CS6. The message says 'The project appears to be damaged, it cannot be opened.' Is there a way to convert the project so that it works for CS6?

So how did you open it?
I downloaded your file: "from-CC.prproj" (link in post 10).
I duplicated the Project and renamed it: "from-CC_Version23_CS5".
I opened the file in Dreamweaver, and changed '26' to '23', then saved:
I opened the altered file "from-CC_Version23_CS5" in CS5.0.3.
On opening in CS5.0.3, I got this error message:
I clicked "OK".
The Project opens asking for location of "Video-Frame-White-Test.jpg".
I clicked "Offline".
The Project opened, and Sequence Properties are [email protected]:
I replaced your .jpg with a stock clip:
I saved the file in CS5.0.3, then exited.
Then I opened and renamed the saved file in CS6.0.5:
note:
I was unable to alter the 'Version Number" to from '26' to '25'
and open the Project directly into CS6.0.5:

Flash Pro CS5 Replace Symbol Issue

In Flash CS5 pro, when I replace a symbol in the library, it seems to break the refresh of the item(s) in the timeline and on the stage.
For example, if I have a movie clip called "mouse" and modify it in one file, then copy that symbol into another Flash file (either copying it from one library to another, or copying a frame from one timeline to another, etc) it replaces the file....
...BUT the timeline layer that item is on turns blank and the item on the stage doesn't update.
When I scrub the timeline, the object appears and the timeline populates...
...BUT if I have applied tweens to the symbol, I can't preview them by scrubbing the timeline.
Also, none of the symbols used in the file consistently update on the stage or in the timeline.
If I try to change a tween in the timeline on any object, it doesn't update on the timeline (I can't see the tween).
Finally, if I publish the file while this issue exists, the object that I replaced does not tween properly.
In the end, I am forced to save the file, close Flash, and restart. When I restart, the replaced object is there, it tweens correctly, and the file and everything in it functions and its library functions normally.
I've never had this issue with previous versions of Flash. At times it is simply annoying, at other times it is a serious issue when I have to replace large numbers of symbols in large projects.
Anyone else had this issue, or have a recommendation for a fix?
My system is fairly robust... quad core 3.0 ghz, 8gb RAM, 3 x 500gb HDD, Windows 7 64 bit...and I ran Flash Professional CS4 on this same system without any of these issues.
I have the same issue on my work system, which is a completely different system.
I tried searching for a solution, but didn't find an issue listed that matched my problem.

Try file->save-as and save down to a CS4 document. Then try it. I've had a lot of really weird issues with CS5 in the past that saving down to CS4 somehow corrected. Although I use CS5.5 currently. Docs made in CS5 often don't even import into CS5.5 correctly. I need to go in CS5, open it, save down to CS4 and then reopen in CS5.5. There's something about saving down to CS4 that seems to fix things.
You can always save down to CS4, work in CS4 to make your changes then import it back into CS5 and export it.
In this world things are too complex and sometimes although it's not ideal, just getting it done for deadline is the real job.

Can't open the application "Adobe Illustrator CS6.app" because it is not supported...

UPDATE - Ahhh haaaa! If I log in with the guest account Illustrator works fine! WTF!? Oh well, at least I have a direction to be working towards, thanks for all the suggestions and assistance Adobe Community!
That was sarcasm by the way...
UPDATE - Just installed the latest Illustrator update from Adobe - still not loading. Tried reseting the iMac's PRAM, no luck.
UPDATE - I've just reinstalled the whole CS6 Suite, and the only things that have changed are that I now have a little white no entry sign over Illustrator (it still won't load) and I also have 1.5GB of application updates to do
I don't have any direct evidence but I'm guessing this is a Mavericks incompatibility judging by the other issues people are having with Illustrator. Any suggestions are welcome!
I've been using CS6 on my iMac for the past year (3.2GHz Intel Core i5, 32GB ram). Everything running fine, no problems.
Then I get the popup from Apple saying to upgrade to Mavericks, so I did. After updating my Java version, for the next two weeks everything carried on running fine. Until just now.
I finished working on an Illustrator file, saved it and then exited, only to remember I needed to make one more small change. So I clicked on the AI icon and got this error message;
'You can’t open the application “Adobe Illustrator CS6.app” because it is not supported on this type of Mac.' Eh???
I tried doing a reboot thinking that maybe something had just gone wonkey and needed resetting. Still no luck. So I reinstalled Java again. Nope. Then I tried every other CS6 app and they all ran fine.
Does anyone know what could cause Illustrator CS6 to be working fine for weeks and then suddenly become an unsupported app? These things always happen with you're right up against a deadline! I NEED ILLUSTRATOR WORKING NOW! HEEEEEELLLLLLLPPPP!

I had the same issue and resolved it
I first remove the prefs folder and the plist files for illustrator in ~/Libary
next I logged off,
then I uninstalled illustrator using the adobe uninstaller(http://helpx.adobe.com/creative-suite/kb/cs5-cleaner-tool-installation-problems.html)
Next I reinstall illstrator
after that it worked for me.

Unable to open AVI files in Photoshop CS6

Unable to open AVI files in Photoshop CS6
I am running PS6 and want to open and edit AVI files. When I try to do that I get an error message saying "the video file cannot be opened" . This seems to apply to ALL avis - yet I can open and edit MP4, MMV etc. I installed Gspot to track whether it was a codec issue and when I try to open ANY file I get this error message : "Warning: DirectShow crashed while GSpot was attempting to obtain information about a codec. This is usually due to damaged, misconfigured, conflicting, or poorly written codec drivers. It is possible, perhaps even likely, that other media players will crash when they attempt to play this file as well, as most of them will also use DirectShow. GSpot was able to intercept the crash, and has attempted to identify the codec or filter involved; uninstalling or reinstalling this codec or filter may solve the problem. The codec was tentatively identified as: C:\Windows\system32\imaadp32.acm Unknown video codec #11" I have NO idea where to go from here. I see a site to download the "imaadp32.acm" codec but what about the "Unknown video codec #11". What the heck is that and what do I do about it. Any help would be appreciate, Cliff
ps I should add that the avi files DO open and play in Bridge. I have the latest Quicktime. Everything is up to date and PS and the computer is otherwise working perfectly !

Thanks Curt and 'Mylenium'
I did re-set the prefs - but to no avail
I checked and my graphics driver and audio is all up to date.
No sure how to verify Windows Media Player's hardware acceleration options. I opened WMP Options /Perfformance tab and under Cd the DirX tab is checked.
Running Windows Vista - so does the same caution apply regarding a re-install of Windows Media Components and DirectX ?
Appreciate your help with this somewhat frustrating issue. I am converting some old 8mm film to avi with the hope of doing some edits then burning to DVD.

ID Install - Can't open the application Adobe InDesign CS6 because it may be damaged or incomplete.

Trying to install inDesign CS6 on my imac. But everytime I try at end of install I either get a problem with install error, or if it does show up in my applications folder, it has a "no" sign and when clicked I get:
"You can't open the application Adobe InDesign CS6 because it may be damaged or incomplete."
Need help, Im a freelance desktop publisher and need this to work!

After I deleted Adobe File Manager because it was always popping up annoyingly, I got a similar "damaged application - reinstall" message. However, InDesign didn't seem to be affected. Nevertheless, I reinstalled AFM, and fixed the problem, except for the annoying appearances of AFM.
If it's not present on your system, you can search Google for "download adobe application manager mac" without quotes, to download and install it.

Why is it necessary to re-enable each time I wish to open a file in Photoshop CS6?

When I use the "open file" command, I find all of my files blanked out and I have to "enable" the window to show "All Documents" each time. Is there a way to change this so that "All documents" are always visible when I choose Open File (or Command-O) in Photoshop CS6? I am using a Mac Pro and the latest version of PS CS6.

From the above link:
Many odd issues can be resolved by resetting your Photoshop preferences.
The main preferences file is called "Adobe Photoshop CS6 Prefs.psp".
Once you find the file, save a copy to include in your bug report, then delete or remove it from the preferences folder.
Photoshop will create a new preference file the next time it is run.
Windows
Under Windows XP the preference file will be found at:
%windir%\Documents and Settings\[username]\Application Data\Adobe\PhotoshopCS6\Adobe Photoshop CS6 Settings\Adobe Photoshop CS6 Prefs.psp
Under Vista and Windows 7 or 8, the preference file will be found at:
Users\[Username]\AppData\Roaming\Adobe\Adobe Photoshop CS6\Adobe Photoshop CS6 Settings\Adobe Photoshop CS6 Prefs.psp
Macintosh
On MacOS the preference file will be found at:
/Users/[Username]/Library/Preferences/Adobe Photoshop CS6 Settings/Adobe Photoshop CS6 Prefs.psp
PLEASE NOTE: On MacOS 10.7 and later, Apple has hidden your Library folder, so you may need to make it visible - but the location is the same for all MacOS X versions. Instructions for accessing hidden user library files: Access hidden user library files | Mac OS 10.7 Lion
If you need a quick and dirty way to restore your preferences, here's a way you can do it using a keyboard shortcut on launch:
Windows - CTRL-SHIFT-ALT immediately after you double-click the PS icon.
Macintosh - CMD-SHIFT-OPTION immediately after you double-click the PS icon.

Why can I not open jpg files in PS CS6?

I just updated from CS5 to CS6. I opened several photos in Bridg and edited them in Adobe Raw 7.1. I then opened the raw files in CS6 and saved them in jpg format. I went back to open them in CS6 from Camera Raw and found that I cannot open them driectly in CS6 from there. Here is the popup I get: Windows cannot find C;\Program Files\Adobe\Adobe Photoshop CS4 (64 Bit)\Photoshop.exe. Make sure you typed the name correctly, and then try again.

I'm having a different CS6 / JPG problem. I cannot set CS6 as the default program for JPG files. I can set CS6 for TIFF's and PSD's, but not JPG files.
When I try, it is not in the list of programs, or "other program." I can select CS6 manually, but it doesnt work and the default association does not stick.
I can go to CS6 and open a JPG directly, but not from Windows Explorer.
Anyone else have this issue?

Loading an external image (from file system) to fla library as MovieClip symbol.

Hi everyone,
I am new to actionscript and Flash.
I have been working on code updation project wherein initially we had an image and text as movieclips in fla library. The image and the text are read by the actionscript program which then creates an animation.
For Example:
// Picture
// _imageMC: Name of the Movie Clip in the libary which
// contains the picture.
var _imageMC:String = "polaroid";
This is later on used by another actionscript class as follows to finally create the animation.
var _mcPolaroid:MovieClip = this._mcBg.attachMovie(this._polaroid, "polaroid_mc", this._mcBg.getNextHighestDepth());
Now the problem here is when one needs to update the image or text, one needs to go and open the fla file andmanually change the image attached to the movieClip (polaroid).
I want to ease the updation process by giving the url of the image in an XML file. Read the image url from the xml and load this image in the library of the fla as movieclip. This, i think, will result in less code change and improve the updation of the final animation image.
The problem i am facing is not been able to figure out how can i change the image (after fetching its URL) to a movieclip and then load it in the library?
Thank you kindly in advance,
Varun

This is the AS3 forum and you are posting with regards to AS2 code. Try posting in the AS2 forum...
http://forums.adobe.com/community/flash/flash_actionscript
As for the solution you seem to want. You cannot dynamically add something to the library during runtime. To add an image during runtime you would need to use the MovieClip.loadMovie() or MovieClipLoader.loadClip() methods. You could have the movieclip pre-arranged in the library, but to add the image dynamically via xml information you need to load it into a movieclip, not the library.

As in the current case, the name of the movieclip which has the image (originally polaroid) is being read through the variable _imageMC which we hadd given the value "polaroidTest".
The animation shows no image even when i have inserted the correct url (i m sure this step isn't wrong).
Any clues?

Default open dwg files in Illustrator CS6

I frequently use dwg files in Adobe Illustrator, so I set dwg files default program to Illustrator CS5.
We recently upgraded to CS6 and when I opened it, it didn’t update the default program. I tried using the “open with” menu. Illustrator CS6 doesn’t show as one of the options, so I browsed for it, selected it, clicked ok. The dialog box closed, but CS6 wasn’t added to the menu. I received the same results using “Associate a file type with a program” in the Control panel.
Any ideas how to make Illustrator my default program for dwg files?
Thanks

It is not related to Creative cloud but a OS specific issue. You didn't mentioned the OS but I pressume it is Windows because we have seen this on Windows.
Open the Control Panel from the Start menu.
Mine is set in top right to 'View by' Category. I clicked on Programs (green link).
Under Default Programs I clicked on the blue link for 'Make a file type always open in a specific program'.
Wait for 'Loading..'. to finish. Make sure the list is sorted by Name and scroll down to '.dwg'. Select it and click the button for 'Change program...'.
Do no see Firworks listed in the Recommended Programs, so click on the small triangle to the right of Other Programs. Select Fireworks and click the OK button.
Wait for the list to reload and confirm the association changed.
Hope this helps !!
