Hi there
You have replied to a pretty old thread. This really should be a thread of its own.
Have you reported this to Adobe as a bug?
Cheers... Rick

Adobe Bridge crashes when i open a Lacie external hard rive. Started when i uploaded Yosemite?
Finder crashes occur both on my MacBook Pro (4,1) and MacBook Air (2,1). There is very little in common between the hardware of the two systems except the Santa Rosa processor. One has HDD and the other SSD. One has 6GB in DDR2 memory in two dimms and one 2GB DDR3 soldered. One has an 8600M and one a 9400. One starts a bunch of apps at login and one starts nothing. And so on. Since it happens on different kinds of systems, it's definitely not a hardware problem with certain specific hardware. And I'm pretty sure I saw a report from someone with a MacPro.
I've looked at a lot of finder crash logs. A number of them seem to happen when something (memory or an object) is being freed and an error occurs. This causes an abort and the finder is killed and restarts. Not exactly a "crash". More like controlled flight into the ground. The other cases are probably not catching the error and getting seg faults, so those actually are crashes. Unfortunately, the place this happens seems to be different every time but usually related to finder or AppKit.
I suspect a memory corruption bug somewhere. I've pushed my system by opening and closing
folders, scrolling up and down, and opening and closing subfolders, and once the problem happens, it is usually reproducible for a few minutes (or a few repeats of the action that caused the crash).
Then it will often "magically" start working or a slight variation of behavior, e.g., opening a folder directly vs. using a finder window sidebar alias (or vice-versa) will work. -
Adobe 8 crashes when closing doc created from PDDoc.OpenAVDoc
I am having trouble closing Pdf objects using Acrobat Pro 8xx. The following VBA code has worked successfully with Acrobat 6 & 7, but not with 8. We are using current pc's with Windows XP (latest SP's) and we have just upgraded to Acrobat 8.1.2.
In VBA I basically insert pages from any combination of PDF books into a new PDF book (using PDDoc.OpenAVDoc(temporary object)). Then I open the completed book for viewing (without first having saved the book). The book opens correctly, but the following error occurs when the document is closed by the user. Acrobat then crashes and needs to be restarted.
The instruction at "0x03072b95" referenced memory at "0x00000008". The memory could not be "read". This doesn't happen with Acrobat 6 or 7.
The problem is resolved when I save the book first and then open, but I dont want to do that because these books are temporary and a large amount of books are generated on a daily basis by many users and I dont want to have to clean them up.
Also there are a couple of reasons why we insert pages from existing books into a temporary book, rather than just opening up the individual books:
1. Each book is an individual part drawing. The temp book groups the individual part drawings to make a complete part assembly. Each book may have a different combination of parts inserted into it.
2. Each book (part) is published from a CAD file and sometimes revisions need to be made to an existing part. If the part book was open for viewing when the revised part was published, then the PDF will not be able to overwritten because it is locked for viewing.
The following is a watered down version of the VBA code that I use. Any suggestions would be appreciated.
Option Explicit
Public Sub CreateTempBook()
Dim oPdfApp As Object
Dim oPdfPartPdDoc As Object
Dim oPdfTempPdBk As Object
Dim sPdfDocPath As String
Dim iResult As Integer
sPdfDocPath = "C:\TestPart.pdf"
Set oPdfApp = CreateObject("AcroExch.App")
Set oPdfTempPdBk = CreateObject("AcroExch.PDDoc")
Set oPdfPartPdDoc = CreateObject("AcroExch.PDDoc")
iResult = oPdfTempPdBk.Create 'Create blank temp book to receive part PDF
iResult = oPdfPartPdDoc.Open(sPdfDocPath)
iResult = oPdfTempPdBk.InsertPages(-1, oPdfPartPdDoc, 0, 1, 0) ' Insert part page(s) into Temp book
oPdfPartPdDoc.Close 'Close Pdf
If iResult = 0 Then
oPdfTempPdBk.Close 'Close book as no pages were inserted
Else
oPdfTempPdBk.SetPageMode 2 'PDUseThumbs - show Pdf with thumbnail (page) tab
oPdfTempPdBk.OpenAVDoc ("TempDocName") 'Open the object (to make visible)
oPdfTempPdBk.ClearFlags (-1) 'Clear flags so no prompt to save shown on close
oPdfApp.Maximize 1 'Maximize Acrobat
End If
Set oPdfApp = Nothing
Set oPdfPartPdDoc = Nothing
Set oPdfTempPdBk = Nothing
End Sub
Note this message has been relocated from the Acrobat Windows forum.PDL,
Thanks for advice on clearing the save prompt. I now understand the ClearFlags (-1) may not have bene used correctly, but note it did not cause Adobe 6 or 7 to crash.
Ultimately I am not worried about the user being prompted to save the new document. They can always hit cancel. Removing the save prompt is just tidier.
I have tried your suggestion, but when I close the oPdfTempPdBk document down in Acrobat I get asked to save the document (the save prompt is shown) and regardless of which selection I make Adobe still crashes. Updated code:
If iResult = 0 Then
oPdfTempPdBk.Close 'Close book as no pages were inserted
Else
oPdfTempPdBk.SetPageMode 2 'PDUseThumbs - show Pdf with thumbnail (page) tab
oPdfTempPdBk.OpenAVDoc ("TempDocName") 'Open the object (to make visible)
Dim oPdfJSObj As Object
Set oPdfJSObj = oPdfTempPdBk.GetJSObject
oPdfJSObj.Dirty = False
oPdfApp.Maximize 1 'Maximize Acrobat
End If
I have also removed all reference to making the document clean and setting the Acrobat view, but Acrobat still crashes. Revised code:
If iResult = 0 Then
oPdfTempPdBk.Close 'Close book as no pages were inserted
Else
oPdfTempPdBk.OpenAVDoc ("TempDocName") 'Open the object (to make visible)
oPdfApp.Maximize 1 'Maximize Acrobat
End If
Any further suggestions would be appreciated.
Thanks Tony -
Captivate Crashes when Changing Existing Projects
Hi
I've created 9 Captivate Projects using Captivate 4. I'm now going back to change some of them. With 4 of them, every time I duplicate a slide or add new recorded slides, Captivate crashes. I don't have time to recreate them from scratch.
The files range in size from 7.5 mb to 9.5 mb.
I'm using VM Ware to connect from a virtual Wyse terminal to a virtual PC. Captivate is installed on the virtual PC.
Any suggestions would be gratefully received.
Cheers
KathyThat's a pretty complex setup for Captivate, especially considering how dependant it seems to be on local video card support. Your going through a lot of virtualization layers that - I'm surprised CP opens for you at all! ;-)
Is this the same setup you had when originally authoring?
There's no way you can try to edit directly on a 'real' PC?
If not, you could try copying all slides in the CP project file, then pasting them into a new, blank CP file (or, alternatively, create a new, blank CP file and do an import on the current CP file). Sometimes that process helps resolve corruption or other 'bad pointer' issues...

KonradWelcome to the forum.
As your system setup will likely be much different from that of Konrad's, I would start a new thread, and in it, list the full system in detail, as Konrad did. This ARTICLE will give you tips on the info that would be very useful.
In Konrad's case, the C:\ was filled to about capacity, so could well have been a contributing factor. That is why full I/O specs. will be very, very useful.
Good luck,

DW CS3 crashes when closing open pages/tabs
So, I have no rhyme or reason for why this happens, but it happens often. When I have open pages I am working on - 1, 2, 5, 8, 10 - it does not matter, and I go to either (1) command W or (2) hit the little close "x" on the open page/tab.. sometimes DW just crashes. Like I said, there is no pattern to when and if it will crash, no pattern to if it happens if I click the "x" or try Control W and no pattern if I have 2 pages or 10 pages open.
The real outcome issue here, besides just the simple PITA factor for such a costly high end app to be doing this, is that I can no longer "undo" anything I was editing.
Any ideas on why or how to fix?
v9.0 build 3481Have you put that particular page through the validators to see if there are other issues on the page - just to be sure. I've truly not heard of such a thing happening when using width auto.....

All Adobe apps crash when closed.
Whether it's Photoshop, Illustrator, Premiere, After Effects... all of them. They crash as soon as I close them. Sometimes they're open for a long time, sometimes just a short while. Whenever I'm done working and close the program, it crashes. This started sometime recently but I can't really remember exactly when. It wasn't much of a nuisance because the crash didn't really affect me, I was afterall, shutting it down.
I'm on a 2009 Mac Pro with 8 cores and 16gig of ram. I'm using Snow Leopard and the CS4 Master Collection.
Is this happening to anyone else?I get crashes in Dreamweaver CS3 when doing Fast User Switching. I don't think Adobe's going to fix that.
One issue with crashing on exit (of any application, not just Adobe) may be due to corrupt preferences. Try trashing the offending Adobe application(s) Preferences file (plist), which should be in your /user/library. Also, if you are trying to chase down a crash issue, see if it crashes in all users the same way and at the same time. On my Mac, I have a "Repair" user that is a full Administrator. "Repair" is often used to troubleshoot application crashes to determine if there are .plist files that are corrupt as well as to determine if the crash seems to happen for the same reason (sometimes it's a corrupt graphics file and not the application itself).
There are essentially two"library" folders that affect each application on your Mac. One is in the Root level of your hard drive and the other is in your /user space. clearing out corrupt preferences files from your user space usually stops this kind of a crash. But if the crash happens at the same time and for the same reason for all users, it may be useful to trash your .plist files for these applications on the root level. You have to be an Administrator user to do that. These preferences files will regenerate as soon as the application in question is restarted.
I hope this enables a few of you to get out from under crashes in Apple's OS X. -
Firefox crashes when closing open windows
Hi
Since updating to the new Firefox 18.0.1 every time I try to close a few open windows Firefox crashes. I would be reading my mail and after having about 10 open windows I go and check on the X to close the windows. I can close about five to seven of them with no problem but when I have about three of them left Firefox crashes. It is very annoying. I used the Firefox Safe Mode feature and this problem does not happen while in Safe Mode. I don't know what the next step is to fix this problem. Could you please help. Thank youHello,
Thanks for responding back. Norton is to release an update shortly to fix this crashing issue.
Have a nice day! -
Adobe Reader crashes when closing
Hi all
Been having some problems with adobe reader recently- not critical, just annoying. It runs fine, but then when I close it, windows tells me its crashed. Has anyone else heard of this? Might it be a sign something is corrupt somewhere?
I'm running version 10.1.0 on Vista if that helps.
Thanks very much
JonnyWhen the system asks you to send a crash report to Microsoft, please do.
It will be forwarded to us so we can take a look. I am not sure if we have gotten enough reports of this kind so far.
If a crash happens after viewing a specific pdf file, let us have it so we can investigate directly, if there are no copyright or privacy issues.
Attach the file here or file a bug report at https://www.adobe.com/cfusion/mmform/index.cfm?name=wishform&promoid=EWQQL
The bug report form doesn't let you attach a file. Include your e-mail address or URL where we can get the file.

Premiere Pro crashes when I open my project because the cursor is stuck on a time-lapse sequence
I have a Time-lapse sequence which I have just built and saved the project of, but my cursor has stopped on the time-lapse sequence. Premiere Pro does crashes when I open my project because the cursor is stuck on the time-lapse sequence.
My project was saved in Premiere Pro with the cursor stuck on my new time-lapse sequence. Now, Premiere Pro crashes when I try to open the project....Please help URGENTLY?>It may be a corrupt font, but I have thousands installed. Is there any way to test for that?
Reply #8 was specifically to address this question.
>I basically wanted to know if this is a 3.2.0 issue or not.
That's not what you asked. Perhaps asking a specific question will get you closer to a specific answer?
The titler does not crash for me at any stage of the Adobe updates for Premiere Pro, including 3.2.

Adobe flash crash when I try to upload photos to created album on Facebook . Is this related to the new version of Mozilla Firefox that I installed few days ago.
== This happened ==
Not sure how often
== This morning July 18th 2010Did you reinstall CS3 after CC?
For that matter, doing an in-place upgrade on the OS is always a gamble with Adobe programs. Reinstalling all the versions you need, in order, would probably solve your problem.
And you shouldn't need to save as IDML after opening the .inx in CC. -
Firefox crashes when I open Adobe (pdf) ALL plug ins are up to date as is FF
This is a known issue with Adobe Reader, and it depends on Adobe updating their plugin.
Whilst you're waiting for Adobe to fix their plugin, you can disable it and fallback to the default PDF reader in Firefox by following these steps:
#Go to ''Tools'' > ''Options'' (or ''Firefox'' > ''Options'').
#In the Options window, select the ''Applications'' tab.
#In the ''Search'' field, type ''PDF''. You should find ''Portable Document Format (PDF)''.
#On the right handside you should find an ''Action'' column. In order to view PDF files in Firefox, choose ''Preview in Firefox''.
Did this fix your problems? Please report back to us!

Best is to edit in HD and export to SD.
You need the AVCHD 1080i 25 Anamorfic.

I have Adobe Acrobat Pro and it crashes when I open it...
I have restarted my computer and it is still crashing...
Hi Grace,
Please let me know what OS are you using?
Does Acrobat crash when you open any particular pdf or any pdf?
What version of Acrobat are you using? Have you updated it to the latest patch.
Was it working fine for you before?
Please check the performance after disabling any antivirus or anti-malware software you might have and check.
