AS2 debugger insta-crash in CS3/Mac

I'm running Flash CS3 on an intel mac (macbook pro). When
debugging an AS2 project, if I press opt-F7 to step over a line of
code the flash IDE immediately crashes. I can click the debugger
icon to step over so it's something about the keypress in
particular. Anyone else seen this? Any suggestions? Thanks!
Mike

More info: I use a Microsoft Ergonomic 4000 USB keyboard. If
I press opt-F7 on the macbook keyboard the crash doesn't occur. So
it's specific to the USB keyboard.

    Photoshop CS3 Mac: Crashes on startup?
    Hi all!
    I just today installed CS 3 Web Premium on my G5 (Dual 2.7GHz, 2GB RAM, Mac OS 10.4.9, all updates installed). The install seems to succeed, and I've activated the suite, and all the other applications launch without a problem. But Photoshop doesn't. It shows the splash screen and gets as far as "Initializing Suites" when it drops off the face of the earth, and I'm prompted to send a crash report to Adobe (done).
    I've tried restarting the Mac, re-installing just Photoshop, and even creating a new Admin user and trying it there, but Photoshop still crashes in the same place. So it's apparently nothing in my user account or just a randomly mucked-up install.
    I did a search here for "initializing suites" but nothing came up, and even Google found just one other report of a CS3 crash at exactly that point, so a) it's not common, but b) it's nevertheless not just me. Hmm.
    Has anybody seen this? I'm funkified...
    Pres

    Ramón is exaggerating.
    First: find the uninstaller in the Applications/Utilities/Adobe Installers and TRY to run it even though you already deleted the application.
    If it won't DO anything, go to Macinosh HD/Users/your username/Library/Preferences and delete the Adobe Photoshop CS3 Settings folder (and its content) PLUS the Adobe Photoshop CS3 Paths file in same location, PLUS the com.adobe.Photoshop.plist file in same location.
    Then try to reinstall again.
    If that doesn't work, run the cs3 clean again. Note that it is a script and that it asks you questions that you have to answer to and type in replies to for it to do anything. I fyou donät interact with it it won't do a thing. Note that it might clean out more adobe files than you would wish for.
    There are instructions here
    for how to unisntall the public beta of Photoshop CS3 but you might be able to follow those also for a non-beta. There are no instructions for manually removing Photoshop CS3 at the support center as far as I can see (on the other hand it is next to impossible to find anything on the support pages by doing a search.. search for Photoshop CS 3 for Mac and get articles about Illlustrator or CS...).

  • CS3 Mac: Where Are Crash Reports?

    Hello Forum,
    Has anybody noticed where InDesign/InCopy CS3 create crash logs on Mac (release build)? If crashes happen seldom, it is hard to catch them using the debug build or gdb.
    I have the "Developer" setting set in the CrashReporterPrefs, but it seems to be ignored as nothing appears in the CrashReporter log folder in Console. Will I have to press "Send to Adobe" in the crash report dialog and intercept network traffic? Is there a simpler way? I beleive I must have overlooked something really simple...
    Thanks,
    Pavel.

  • Premiere CC 2014 (8.0) crashes on launch Mac OS X

    I've been trying to fix this for weeks. I'm pretty frustrated at this point.
    The latest version of Premiere Pro CC 2014 crashes at launch on my 2010 15" MBP with 8gb ram.
    It bounces for a while, then I see the splash screen, which seems to hang at "Loading ImporterQuicktime.bundle" and then crashes.
    Please help! I've looked on a bunch of forums and none of the answers (changing permissions, updating, reinstalling, etc.) seem to fix my problem.
    Thanks!

    Could you go to Premiere Pro > About Premiere Pro and let us know if you are on version 8.2? A lot of people say "Premiere Pro CC 2014" but there are 3 versions of that right now. I know you said "the latest," but I want to be sure.

    Did you see this one? Premiere Pro CC, CC 2014, or 2014.1 freezing on startup or crashing while working (Mac OS X 10.9, and later)
    Also check out this post. It describes similar problems with related issues: Re: Premiere Pro CC hangs on splash screen  "loading ExporterQuicktimeHost.bundle"

  • Adobe Photoshop Elements 10 crashing on my Mac

    HELP!  My Photoshop Elements 10 keeps crashing on my Mac!  Been using it for many years but have recently upgraded my Mac and now the program will run for about 15 mins and then crash!  Very frustrating!

    When you upgrade OS X over an installed copy of PSE it is critical to delete all existing preferences.
    Go to your username>libary>preferences and delete:
    com.adobe.PhotoshopElements.plist
    Adobe Photoshop Elements 10 settings
    Adobe Photoshop Elements 10 paths
    com.adobe.Elements  Organizer. 10.0.plist
    com.adobe.ElementsOrganizer10.plist
    and any lockfiles with the same names.
    To see the user library in recent versions of OS X, click the Go menu in the Finder and hold down the Option key and it will appear below the little house for your user account. While you're in there also go to the Saved Application States folder and delete any for PSE.

  • SWAP?  CS3 Win for CS3 Mac

    I have Adobe Creative Suite 3 Web Premium for Windows, and I recently moved over a Mac platform.  I am not in a position to upgrade as yet to CS4, so looking for someone who may be in the reverse situation who may want to swap a CS3 Mac for my CS3Win.
    I purchased my version as a download, so basically all we need to exchange are serial numbers, or happy to zip up the files and place online for you to download if necessary.  I am happy to do same in reverse, or receive a boxed version if that is easier.
    (Adobe only offers a cross platform exchange for current versions.)
    Please respond here if you are interested, and we can make arrangements.
    regards

  • How can one place a single image on a spread? CS3-MAC

    Hi all,
    i How can one place a single image on a spread? CS3-MAC
    A very straight forward question I think. I just never did it before. Anyone knows of a fast technique of doing this? I have to make 70+ images this way. Could it be scripted?
    thanx in advance
    Michael

    You'll need to be more specific. Placing a single image on one spread is drop-dead simple. File > Place, choose file, click (or click-and-drag) to place, scale and position as desired. You can ask about scripting in the
    scripting forum.
    You might not need to script this to get efficient use of time. Make a picture frame on the master spread and then insert 140 pages (70 2-page spreads) based on that master. File > Place, and select all 70 files. (They need to be in one folder. Click on the top file, scroll down, lick on the bottom file.) Zoom out and click once on each spread to place each image. Should work faster that writing, testing, debugging, and running a script.

  • Hello, my iTunes dates are crashed on my mac, how can I download all my itunes match songs and save on my mac?

    Hello, my iTunes dates are crashed on my mac, how can I download all my itunes match songs and save on my mac?

    Hi mrmoo13!
    You have a couple of options for transferring your music library from one computer to another. First, you can download all of your music that is stored in the cloud on iTunes Match by following the instructions on this page:
    iTunes 11 for Mac: Access all your music anytime, anywhere with iTunes Match
    http://support.apple.com/kb/PH12284
    You can follow steps listed in the section right here:
    Play or download songs from iCloud
    You can play songs directly from iCloud, or you can download songs so you can play them when you’re not connected to the Internet.
    If a song is available in iCloud, it has a Download button next to it.
    To play the song, double-click it.
    To download the song, click the Download button.
    After you download a song to a computer, it remains in the computer’s iTunes library, even if you turn off iTunes Match.
    To only display downloaded songs in your iTunes library, choose View > Hide Music in the Cloud. This also hides any previous iTunes Store purchases you haven’t downloaded.
    For information about downloading and playing songs on an iOS device, see the documentation for the device.
    In order to make it easier to download all of your music, you can highlight all of the songs in your iTunes Match section and then click download, as mentioned in these instructions.
    You can also choose to transfer the music from your old computer to the new one by following the steps in this article, whcih will give you some other options for doing this transfer:
    iTunes: How to move your music to a new computer

  • Clicking on Edit- Preferences crashes Bridge CS3 - V2.1.1.9

    Clicking on Edit->Preferences crashes Bridge CS3 - V2.1.1.9
    I've tried repairing the installation with PS setup, renaming the preferences file, changing startup folder, clearing cache, and 1 or 2 other things I can't remember.
    Once I click on Edit->Preferences Bridge stops working; I never see the preferences dialog window.
    I have no idea what the cause is, one moment it was working, the next it wasn't. I hadn't changed any preferences for a while, so the change causing the problem could have been awhile ago.
    Thanks!

    Sergei - I just tried opening Bridge by holding down the Ctrl key while double clicking on the QuickLaunch Icon for Bridge. Works just fine, I get the reset window instantly. Bridge does not appear at all. I have to choose Cancel on reset window for Bridge to load. Using Ctrl+Shift+Alt works exactly the same, but takes more finger dexterity. This 3 key sequence was standard with CS2 I understand.
    Clicking on Bridge in the Recently Accessed Programs List while holding down Ctrl key also works as described above.
    Since you experience something different, it just re-enforces the concept that Bridge acts differently depending on how it is installed, and what is installed on a person's computer.
    FYI - the CS3 I have on my computer has never had any other version of PhotoShop on it, so there is no chance of accessing fragments of previous versions. From posts I have seen upgraded versions can cause different responses to the same procedures if all traces of the old program are not overwritten with the new install.

  • CS3/Mac photoshop.executeScript problem

    Hello
    I am having trouble getting photoshop.executeScript() to work on CS3/Mac. photoshop.executeScript is a simple wrapper for BridgeTalk and I want to call it from InDesign.
    I have seen reports of others being unable to get it to work. However, I have also seen reports of people doing InDesign/Photoshop cross DOM scripting.
    Using ESTK2 the following 1-line script works with target apps bridge, illustrator and indesign but not photoshop (unless photoshop is also the host):
    app.executeScript("alert((12345678).toString());");
    I would like to know whether this is a problem specific to my installation.
    I have also looked at how BridgeTalkIterator in the Bridge CS3 WasScriptLibrary.jsx does things and can't figure out how I might get photoshop.executeScript to work for me in InDesign.
    Any clues would be much appreciated...

    There is no app.executeScript function in PS.
    photoshop.executeScript('alert("testing")') works fine for me from ESTK2 and
    from in PSCS3 on XP.

  • How to deactivate a Photoshop 10.0/CS3 (Mac) serial key when the workstation with the activated installation has been entirely wiped?

    Hello,
    We have a license for Photoshop 10.0/CS3 (Mac version) but it appears that the users previous workstation was wiped without deactivating the installation of Photoshop. Now when he tries to activate the product, it says that the maximum number of activations allowed has been reached. Does this mean that we need to deactivate the serial key somehow? If so, how are we supposed to do it without the activated installation?
    Thank you very much,
