.CHM Compilation causes crash

I have the Adobe Technical Communication Suite, running RoboHelp 8. All of sudden when trying to compile the chm file, RoboHelp crashes. I installed all the updates, restarted and tried all the basic obvious steps, but the crash still occurs. I can compile in Webhelp no problem.
During compilation, I watch the output view. Every starts running ok, I get a warning about the stop file size exceeding 512bytes, then it carries on compiling, then another warning appears HHC3004 warning, it goes to the next topic, another warning about an invalid HTML tag, then it compiles about 4 more topics and crashes again.
I have searched the net high and low and not sure if its a Vista issue or RoboHelp. Does anyone have some info on this?
This is the detail of the error which means nothing to me:

Hi there
I think before when we have seen this it was a corrupt topic.

Photoshop CS4 and graphic cards. Can cause crashing?

Since upgrading to CS4 I seem to have increased crashing.
Here are my system specs.
Mac 2 x 2.66 GHz Dual-Core Intel Xeon
9 GB of Ram
250 GB internal dedicated scratch disc
NVDIA GeForce 7300 GT with 256 VRAM
After having endless techs look at my machine and upgrading everything. I am beginning to suspect the graphics card.
With OpenGL can a underperforming video card cause crashing in photoshop especially with massive file sizes ( multilayered CMYK poster sized files the can exceed 7 GB)?

Did you install the 11.0.1 update?
Is your OS up to date with patches?
Have you tried disabling OpenGL in preferences to avoid using the GPU/Graphics card?

AutoVue viewer caused crash while viewing .XSLX documents.

We use AutoVue Desktop Deployment Viewer incorporated in our application (using JNI). When viewing XLSX (Microsoft Excel) documents on Windows 8.1 x64 system it caused crash of application. It's reproducible only on Windows 8 (8.1 or Server2012) systems. If we set compatibility mode (Windows 7) then problem isn't reproducible.

I would recommend you log a ticket with customer support

CC 2014 (18.1.0) | Text Field editing causing crashes (Windows)

Greetings;
I've noticed lately that when saving files from CC 2014 to a CS6 format - and having those files edited on Mac, in either CS6 or CC - when re-opening those files text fields have been causing crashes on the Windows client. When that same file is opened and text fields are edited on the Mac client, a prompt will just appear stating "Cannot Edit text" - yet it still allows it.
This has caused multiple issues for our teams as it has created files we're starting to refer to as "mine fields" - as working with the .ai file is like playing Russian roulette with text fields, you never know which one is going to crash the file.
I would love to work with a team member from Adobe to help find a resolution to the problem, and I'm willing to provide any additional details that might aid in that process.
Thanks!

Hello Pureweb,
Please upload the crashdumps on some file sharing website say Dropbox and share the link with us by sending a mail to "[email protected]". We will analyze the dump and will suggest you the workaround appropriately.
In parallel, please check that you do not have any 3rd Party plugins installed in it. Please try to remove them one-by-one and see which one causes the crashes or do reverse i.e. remove all the 3rd party plugins. Or Uninstall Ai and check at following location:
C:\Program Files\Adobe\Adobe Illustrator CC 2014
Please verify that nothing is left at above location on uninstalling Ai. Then try a fresh install and see if Ai works.
Also, verify that you have the updated Wacom drivers on your system. This might be an issue with the 3rd party program as well. One of the user who was having a similar issue reported on the Ai forum that one of the 3rd party Stahl's ImageWorx DTG RIP - a program for printing to a Direct To Garment printer was causing the issue. So, you may check if the similar thing is not happening in your case.
Regards,
Dhirendra

Barn doors transition causes crash

Dear Community,
Applied barn doors transition to a project in CS4. Stored that project in 2010.
Opened the project in CS6 CC - and barn doors caused crashes - so I cleaned off the old and applied replacement barn door transitions in CS6 CC.
Once the wipe is applied - its fairly stable - sometime crashes sometimes doesn't.
If I apply a broder colour to the wipe - all ok.
If I then apply a border thickness - crash every time.
System;
Premiere Pro CS6 - 6.0.3 (001 (MC: 264587)) through cloud membership
Updated and current
Win 7 Pro - SP1 - 64 Bit
Source footage SONY EX3 - .mp4 and still image .png's
No error messages - just crash and need to restart PP CS6
Try to apply colour and border to a barn door transition causes the error
This worked before on the smae project when created in CS4
Not running other software at the time
NewBlueFX modules installed but not applied to this area of sequence
i7 - 3.20GHz, 16GB RAM, SSD OS drive, 4 x drive RAID on LSI RAID card, - No I/O hardware
I am using Are you using Mercury Playback Engine Acceleration and CUDA
Problem occurs during normal edit - as soon as I start to adjust the barn doors wipe - I don't get to compression
Thanks
Dave

Doies it help anyone that I just received this from the email address; [email protected];
Hello,
You have received this email because the content you posted below has been rejected by our moderators.
Re: Barn doors transition causes crash
posted Jun 5, 2013 5:15 PM
Since the original report earlier today - I now just have to put the timeline scrubber over the barn doors transition and PP CS6 closes without an error message and without saving. The unfortunate part here is there doesn't seem to be any record or log of the crashes to be able to disseminate whats going wrong.
Barn doors worked in CS4 - and the only change in this project is the re-opening in CS6 CC."
Question; Did I put something in there that was defammatory, rude, obnoxious, incorrect or un-helpful?
If anyone here believes I did, I sincerely apologise for the need of moderators to have intervened... and for causing any offence.

HT5704 Hi, Two recent updates for my iPhone have caused crashes (down the white lead via iTunes).I have "fixed" but not sure of the cause?

Hi,
Two recent updates for my iPhone have caused crashes (down the white lead) via iTunes.
I have "fixed" but I don't know the cause?
Each time the update does n't complete.
The download does n't happen.
The computer & internet connection are good.
It is as if the Apple server does n't complete?
The phone stays in recovery mode, until you reset and rebuild in iTunes.
All software is up to date, but I can't find the cause
ANY IDEAS?
Regards,
P.
<Email Edited by Host>

No error messages.
It just fails to complete the download, so recovery mode is the next step.
This can be over a period of eight hours or more!
I have so many (original) Apple USB leads that I would n't know if I have been using the same one (if it was faulty).
Does this sound like a "common" problem?

XCode 5.0.2 compiling causes ITunes to skip....

XCode 5.0.2, compiling a C++ game....every compile causes ITunes to skip playing the current song.
15 inch MacBook Pro QuadCore i7
16gb RAM
plenty of HD space.
10.9.1
Any ideas what might be causing this?

Try this out I had the same issue then I found out all you have to do is to set the default view to List before opening any previous or new project and it worked for me hope it works for you too, credit goes to this user below who found the solution.
ahmedMac25
I was able to resolve by workaround:
1. Closed all open applications
2. relaunch Finder
3. run sudo find / -name ".DS_Store" -exec rm {} \;
4. this removes all .DS_Store old files on the computer
5. launch finder and set default view to "LIST VIEW" as shown here:http://macs.about.com/od/usingyourmac/ss/Setting-Finder-Views-For-Folders-And-Su b-Folders_2.htm
5. rerun the offending application and file chooser works

Why Does 3D Reposse cause crashes and work so slow?

Why Does 3D Reposse cause crashes and work so slow? I get the pinwheel of death when I use this feature. It works at a snails pace. I liked the 3D Type effects in iIllustrator. Why couldn't Adobe have added all the Reposse features to Illustrator instead of craming all these new features into Photoshop?
They're worthless if the program needs an hour to process every selection.

What are your OS specs, your Video Card and your Preferences > Performance settings?
Why Does 3D Reposse cause crashes and work so slow?
My guess would be because it has to create a whole bunch of polygons and your computer-set-up may be insufficient for the task.

GNU compiled app crashes with signal 11: Segmentation Fault

Hi Community,
I know this is not a GNU oriented forum, but maybe this is a common issue.
We have a C++ multi-threaded application running properly in Solaris 9 Sparc. Due to some issues mostly related to the NICs we needed to have the application running in Solaris 10 x86. The problem is that the compilation is ok (always with GNU) but during run time, we have the application crashing in different instructions because of a signal 11.
It always crashes in a malloc call within the libstdc++.so.6
It was compiled with the option -mt and -lthread. Is this a known problem? Do you recommend any direction to start seeking for a solution?
Pls, find attached the gdb outcomes after the crash.
Thanks in advance, Pablo

A crash in malloc in multi-threaded code could be a bug in the system malloc or a failure to use a thread-safe malloc. The default Solaris malloc in /usr/lib/libc.so.* is thread-safe.
A crash in malloc can also be caused by a heap corruption. Probably the most common causes of heap corruption are
- writing beyond the bounds of a buffer or variable (off by one, for example)
- deleting the same object more than once
- using an invalid pointer:
--- uninitialized
--- pointing to a deleted object
--- pointing to an out-of-scope object
- failure to guard a critical region
- failing to declare shared objects as volatile

Microsoft Word Report causes crash

Hi all.
I'm using the Report Generation toolkit to write some data to a MS Word file. On several computers here, this works just fine, both in development and as an executable.
However, on two computers, I keep getting the following error.
This is not exactly a LabView or National Instruments Error. It looks like a Windows error, but it's definitely being caused by my LV program.
The software works well enough to open the Word file and display it, however, it fails on the next operation which is "Word Find & Replace.vi"
I tried the solution suggested for the "Error 7" problem, but that did not fix it.
(http://digital.ni.com/public.nsf/allkb/8A0E6274D9BD7B1986256F62006AD402?OpenDocument)
I appreciate your help!

Currently, I'm on one of the computers that crashes. (We'll call her "Emily.")
This is running Windows XP Pro. It does not have LabView installed, but it does sucessfully run a variety of LabView programs (compiled to .exe and installed via an installer.)
We just updated the Windows .NET framework from 2.5 to 4.0 Extended, but this did not fix the problem.
It has Microsoft Office 2007.
The software the causes the crash is relatively simple. It reads a data file, does a few calculations and then tries to write the results to a Word file using search and replace. It opens and displays the Word file just fine, but crashes when trying to do the search and replace.
The error creates a .dmp file and an error log. The .dmp file is attached, but I don't know what format it is in. (I had to change the extension to .txt to get it to upload, but it should be .dmp)
I really appreciate any help.
Here is the error log:

ASC 2.0 - switch statement causes crash with java.lang.NegativeArraySizeException

Compiling the following program using ASC 2.0 (it should be a minimal testcase):
$ ./mxmlc Main.as
package {
    import flash.display.Sprite ;
    public class Main extends Sprite {
        public function Main() {
            var i:int = 0;
            switch {
                case -0x3A073416:
                    return;
                case 0x75B22630:
                    return;
                default:
                    return;
            return;
gives the following crash:

Hi,
The range between the min and case case values was causing an overflow, as it was larger than 2^3 -1. I have just fixed this bug.
Until the next compiler drop, you can work around the problem by making one of the case values non-const (example below), which will cause the compiler to not try and create a lookup switch table and avoid the buggy code path.
var i:int = 0;
var caseValue:int = -0x3A073416;
switch
          case caseValue:
        return;
    case 0x75B22630:
        return;
    default:
        return;
