RoboHelp 9 Stops Working when Opening Projects

Hi,
I'm having a massive problem with RoboHelp 9.0.2. It "stops working" whenever I try to open, convert, or create a new project. It fails 100% of the time - with the sample projects, our projects, and new projects. I'm running Windows 7 Ultimate SP1 64-bit on a Dell Lattitude E6400 with 2.66GHz processor and 4GB memory.
RoboHelp 8.0.2 ran fine on this system.
At first, I thought Win7 SP1 might be the culprit, as I was the only one in the dept. who had upgraded. But when the entire department upgraded to SP1 a week later, nobody suffered the same problem.
I've tried the ususal techniques such deleting the CPB file, moving projects to the "My RoboHelp projects" folder, etc. I tried to use RH9 in Windows Diagnostic Startup mode - same result.
The Visual Studio Just-in-Time Debugger gave this error, "An unhandled win32.exception occurred in RoboHTML.exe [6596]"
Does anyone have any suggestions? Or, what additional information can I provide?
Thanks,
Roger

Does RH always crash with the unhandled exception or does it just freeze and you have to kill it using task manager? I'm thinking if it only freezes, maybe your dialog boxes fell off the screen and you can use the following process to get them back.
1. Perform an action that will freeze RH, like File > Open or Insert > Image.
2. Press Alt, then spacebar, then M.
3. Press any arrow key.
4. Waggle the mouse. The missing dialog box should snap to the cursor.
5. Click to drop the dialog box where you want it.

  • Why Ctrl+Tab stops working when opening a flash embedded page?

    This a huge pet peeve I have. Everytime I watch a video in youtube.com or megavideo.com, I can't just Ctrl+Tab to change tabs. I'll have to clic in some portion of the page without video to get it to work, but even that, isn't always the case.

  • Premier 13 stops working when existing project is loaded (after uninstalling Premier 9 where the project started)

    I started a project using Premier 9. Then I upgraded to 13, edited and saved my existing project several times successfully. Decided that it appeared 13 was working well and I no longer needed 9 and 11 (both Photoshop Elements and Premier Elements) so I uninstalled them using the Control Panel app. Now 13 stops working when I try to load my project.
    I have since uninstalled/re-installed/rebooted everything in various sequences many many times with no luck. I even purchased and installed another copy of 9 (since the original was a download and I could not find my notes & serial numbers)! The 9 install encountered a problem "an installation process has encountered an error while installing", it stopped, then rolled the install back so I have nothing for 9.
    HELP
    Paul L

    PaulL
    Probably good idea to recreate the version 9 project in version 13. Investment of time in troubleshooting version 9 is questionable as you say.
    At this point, I would leave Premiere Elements 9.0/9.0.1 installed, just do not open it.
    When you are between Premiere Elements 13 projects and you want to get rid of Premiere Elements 9.0/9.0.1,
    consider
    1. Deactivate the program from an opened project's Help Menu/Deactivate...close out of the program.
    2. Uninstall the program the usual Control Panel way
    3. Do a free ccleaner run through (regular cleaner and registry cleaner parts) to get rid of leftovers from incomplete installs or uninstalls.
    CCleaner - Download
    Note: Deactivation is not the same as uninstall.
    Critical - after a project is saved closed, never move, delete, or rename files/folders that were imported into the project after the project's save close.
    When you import files into a project, all you get are copies of the originals. But, those copies need to trace back to the originals in the location where
    they were when they were first imported into the project. More on that later as indicated.
    Please let me know if any questions or clarification needed on any of the above. Are there any Elements Organizer consideration in any of this?
    If so, I would convert the Elements Organizer 9 catalog in Elements Organizer 13 before uninstalling Premiere Elements 9.0/9.0.1.
    Thanks for the follow ups.

  • Acrobat 8.1.2 Stops Working When Opening a Drop-Down Dialog Box

    Whenever I try to open a drop-down dialog box in Acrobat the application stops working and Vista requests that the application be closed and that I will be notified of a solution when one is available. I've experienced the problem for six months. I must now solve this problem.
    I've already tried repairing the Acrobat installation without any improvement. What should I do next?

    Thanks, seems to solve some of the problem, perhaps I need to uncheck more in this dialogue box...  May be 'a' correct answer but not the complete solution.  Anyway if all I need to do is uncheck a choice in a dialogue box then it must be a bug or driver incompatability as there seems to be no reason why I shouldn't be able to use 2D graphics acceleration.
    Works if you highlight several PDFs in File Manager and then right click and 'Open with Adobe Acrobat', the error still occurs if I drag these files into an open instance of Acrobat beyond two files.  Also seems to be more of a problem if one of the files is a 'colour document ' or 'greyscale document' scanned by Acrobat itself.

  • Adobe reader has stopped working when opening tracker [vista & reader x]

    Hello all,
         I'm a developer and im constantly uninstalling and reinstalling reader x and acrobat pro x, but i typically have both installed.  Recently, i uninstalled both reader x and acrobat x via Add/Remove Programs in windows Vista, and then later reinstalled them both, and now when i click the adobe tracker icon in my systray, it says adobe reader has stopped working.  I've tried uninstalling, reinstalling and then rebooting, but that doesn't seem to help.  Event viewer says:
    Faulting application AcroRd32.exe, version 10.0.1.434, time stamp 0x4d456f48, faulting module mshtml.dll, version 9.0.8080.16413, time stamp 0x4d4cefa9, exception code 0xc0000005, fault offset 0x002be0d0, process id 0x1674, application start time 0x01cc04f02e5354a8.
    Any help would be great.
    Thanks!

    This is strange. Can you try a couple of things:
    1. Try launching Tracker in Acrobat. In Acrobat X, you will find it in Comment pane->Review->Track Reviews
    2. Launch Reader in non-sandbox mode. For this, launch Reader and uncheck the option 'Enable Protected Mode at startup' in Reader Preferences->General. Close and re-launch Reader. Now launch Tracker.
    Does it still crash in both the cases?

  • ITunes 11.3.1 stops working when opened in 'Podcasts' view

    After the latest update installed in last few days on Windows 7, iTunes often crashes on startup, at about the time it is accessing iTunes store (fine before the update). It does not happen if iTunes is opened in 'Music' view, but changing then to the 'Podcasts' view and clicking the podcast 'refresh' button causes crash again. It is worse on some user accounts than others.
    Have tried:
    - Complete reinstallation of iTunes
    - Deleting preferences files in the Local and Roaming directories.
    - Copying a QT dll to the iTunes program files directory (as mentioned on another thread)
    - The other suggestions in this link iTunes for Windows Vista, Windows 7, or Windows 8: Fix unexpected quits or launch issues
    Any ideas?

    Start iTunes is Safe Mode.
    Refer to this article: iTunes: Troubleshooting issues with third-party iTunes plug-ins which gives you steps for starting iTunes in Safe Mode. Note the article has instructions for both OS X (Mac) and the different versions of Windows.   
    I too had the problem with Podcasts, so was delighted to see an update which addressed it. However, like all of you, after the update to 11.3, clicking on Refresh (Podcasts) caused iTunes to stop working. I then started iTunes in Safe Mode but saw no message about entering Safe Mode (as mentioned in the article). Despite this, Refresh Podcasts then worked. That was yesterday. This morning, I have started my iTunes in normal mode and had no issues.
    I suggest you read the article, as there are important points about showing hidden files and what to do if the problem persists. In my case, the problem did not persist. Note also, that the article mentions third-party plug-ins as the cause of the problem. As far as I am aware, I did not have any third-party plug-ins, so the title of the article is somewhat misleading.

  • LabWindows/CVI 2013 SP2 stops working when I try to open a file using the project file menu.

    I have windows 7 on my system and sometime late last year I starrted getting a Windows dialog telling me that LabWindows/CVI has stopped working when I try to open a file from the project file menu.  I also get an error when I run a project debug mode and use a selectFilePopup in the code.  The error says, "The program has suspended execution at address 0x75D5025E.  No source line information is available."  I've tried removing and reinstalling CVI to no avail.  Any suggestions?

    Constantin,
    Thank you for your response.  I've attached screnshots showing the version details for kernal32.dll and ntdll.dll.  I also looked at the updates to see which might have been installed when the problem started.  Unfortunately there are 15-20 updates every month.  I didn't take note of when the error started to occur.  At first it only affected my ability to open files from within the project (i.e. file->open->Source, etc).  Then I went back to modify a project that had a SelectFilePopup and found that that wouldn't work either.

  • Elements 11 program stops working when photo collage opened when 297 x 210 selected

    Adobe Photoshop elements 11 program stops working when photo collage opened when 297 x 210 selected>Running Windows 8.1

    Hi Jane
    There are sometimes problems calling up the template from the media database. Why not design your own? It is possible to make a collage manually in Expert Mode and its quite easy.
    Click File >> Open and select all of your photos
    That will add them to the project bin
    Then select File >> New >> Blank File
    Select background color White (or whatever you prefer) and add your width and height for your final image (set resolution 72 for web usage or 240 to 300 for printing) then click OK
    In the project bin click your first photo and drag it up into the main window on top of your new background.
    Click on the move tool and click in the center of the photo and drag to arrange it where you want on the background - you can hold down the shift key to maintain original proportions whilst dragging the corner handles of the bounding box to get the size you want.
    Do the same with the next photo (drag it up into the main window) and use the move tool to position it. Then continue with each image.
    Finally Click Layer >>Flatten image and save as jpeg. (Save as PSD if you want to preserve the layers for editing again)
    N.B. as you add images they get dropped in the center. So you need to use the move tool to drag them apart. Click in the middle of one and move it around, and then the others until you get them positioned as you want.
    When you click again with the move tool a bounding box appears around the image and you can drag out the corner handles to re-size your photos. Hold down the shift key when dragging the corner handle and that will maintain the proportions of the original.
    Finally click Layer >>Flatten Image and save your collage - you may then want to use the crop tool to cut away any surplus white canvas, and then re-save.

  • Premiere pro 5.5 stops working when playing a sequence, saving a project or closing,any ideas why?

    I can open a project, import files or other projects, but when I want to play the sequence the program stops working and closes. When I try to save the project or close the program I get a "software not responding" message.
    I hope someone can help me with this as I cannot work on any projects.
    thanks.

    Hi john,
    thanks for taking the time to help me. I have updated the software and rendered the files and now I am able to play them, but still neither the sequence nor the clip play/show on the corresponding screens, I can only hear the audio file. I also continue having problems when saving the project, the software stops working and I get the "non responding" error from microsoft.
    As you suggested, and I have to say I am pretty much a dummy with the codecs and alike, I installed the mediainfo and run one of the files.
    This is the info that appears on the screen
    I am not getting any error messages from Premiere, so I am kind of stock. If you need other info let me know.
    Thanks for your help and patience.

  • Project stops working when attempting to change working times

    Project stops working when attempting to change working times.  I'm running a 1000+ task project, fully resource loaded with multiple resource calendars.  After two months of normal operation, it now appears that Project has deleted (or corrupted)
    one of the base calendars that several of the resources use.  Now, when attempting to change working time for a resource, sometimes I can get as far as a blank space where the base calendar name should be and an error message stating that there is a problem
    with the resource; other times the program just stops working and shuts down.  Any ideas on how to restore the file?  

    I agree with John. Save the file as XML and reopen it. Also, if you have backup of the file, use Organizer to copy the base calendar from the backup. To use organizer, open both the files in Project.
    1. In Project 2007 or earlier versions, select Tools > Organizer. In Project 2010 and later, select File, Info > Organizer. 
    2. Click Calendars tab.
    3. Change the Calendars available in: drop down on the right to current file, and other drop down to backup. This will list all the base calendars in each file.
    4. Select the base calendar in the backup. Click the "Copy >>" to restore the base calendar.

    hi

    Since about 2 weeks ago for no apparent reason, the internet on my iPad suddenly stopped working (when I open Safari, it says: "Safari cannot open the page because it is not connected to the Internet"), even though the Wifi icon in the top left corner still shows full signal. However, I noticed when I went into Wifi settings (Settings>Wifi) that there is no checkmark next to my network name (only the spinning circle icon, as if it's trying to process something). This only happens at home (I can browse the internet while connected to  Wifi at university). My other Apple devices (MacBook Pro and iPhone 4S) work perfectly fine at home.
    I've tried resetting my router, restarting my iPad, resetting Network Settings on my iPad, and tried following Hynes' instructions on this thread:https://discussions.apple.com/thread/2453187?start=15&tstart=0, but nothing has worked so far (although I have to admit that I found the instructions on that thread somewhat confusing, so there is a chance that I accidentally did not follow them properly).
    Could someone please help? It'd be VERY much appreciated.
