Crashes every time I try to download folders

Question

I have the CS5 Master Collection
I'm using a 2.8GHz Intel Core i7 iMac with 16GB DDR3. Mac OSX 10.6.4
I've created a WordPress site. I can upload to it. And I can download single files. But when I try to download folders, Dreamweaver CS5 crashes. Last folder I tried to download contained 30 files and was 262 kb in size - so not big. I've also tried the same thing using my old Dreamweaver CS4 which I've still kept installed. It crashes just the same. However I've been able to download the files using Fetch - no problem
Any ideas what I can do to sort out this problem?

Answer 1

Mail is crashing while processing junk. Try this:
1. Make sure Mail is not running.
2. In the Finder, go to HOME/Library/Mail/.
3. Locate LSMMap2 and move it to the Trash. If you see an LSMMap file there, move it to the Trash too.
4. Locate MessageRules.plist and move it to the Desktop. If there is a file called MessageRules.plist.backup, move it to the Desktop too. You may also see MessageSorting.plist files there; this is where Mail 1.x stored the rules, and they are no longer used by Mail 2.0, so just move them to the Trash if you see them.
5. Look for the account folders. The name of each account folder starts with the account type (POP, IMAP, Mac), followed by the account username and the incoming mail server. Open each of the account folders, locate the Junk.mbox folders and move these to the Trash. Note: As a result of doing this, all mail automatically marked as junk by Mail will be lost. If there is a chance that you have legit messages there and you want to preserve them, move them to another mailbox in Mail first -- you may prevent Mail from crashing by shutting down your Internet connection first.
6. Go to HOME/Library/Mail/Mailboxes/. Locate any Junk.mbox folders there (their name may include the account name in parenthesis), and move them to the Trash. Pay attention to any legit messages that could be there, as in the previous step.
7. Launch Mail. Go to Mail > Preferences > Junk Mail, enable junk filtering again, and configure it however you wish. You may want to shut down the Internet connection before launching Mail to prevent it from downloading anything until the junk mail filter has been enabled.
If the above solves the problem and you don't have any rules you'd like to preserve or recreating them is not a daunting task, just delete the MessageRules.plist files that were moved to the Desktop and be done with it.
