CS4 Freezes When Deleting Files

I've had CS4 now for a few weeks and I'm finding that whenever I try to delete a .htm file, the program freezes. I've tried the idea of deleting that cache file in the configurations folder. I've even renamed my configuration folder so a new one would be rebuilt. Same thing with the preferences folder. Any ideas on why this is occurring?

I'm also getting frequent freezes when I try to open a folder in DW. I click on the little + sign and it just locks up. Very, very frustrating. I just upgrading from DW 8 to CS4 and right now, I'm instability like I never experienced in DW 8. Please help.

    Indesign CS4 freezes when I export to InCopy or when I update an InCopy CS4 File.

    Do you have any capture cards in the computer? For example, Blackmagic, Aja, Matrox, CineForm, etc.
    If so, it's software might be causing the problem. Go to "Programs And Features" in the Vista Control Panel to remove the software for the capture card. Restart the computer and then try again.
    Did you install any plug-ins for Premiere?
    If so, remove them and see if the problem goes away.
    Also, where are you saving your projects? Try saving one to your Desktop and see if you still have the problem. If you don't, then it could be a problem with your save location.

  • Captivate 6 freezes when deleting slides

    Hey all,
    Captivate 6.0.0.199 freezes when deleting a slides.  This does not occur on another machine running the exact same version.  This occurs with both new CPTX files created in CP6 and also those upgraded from CP5.
    We are on Windows 7.
    Any ideas?  Deleting slides would be nice. 
    Micky

    I see. Let's just try to break down the problem to simpler levels to isolate the cause.
    Attempt following tests :
    1) Delete just one slide
    2) Delete any object from any specific slide
    3) Try running capuitivate in admin mode (right click and Choose Run as Admin)
    4) If you add new slides and save it and close and reopen, does it show changes made?
    5) Please close all projets and just work on a single new project, add some slides, save it and try deleting
    Let me know the result of these, try these after updating Captivate.

  • InDesign CC freezes when packaging files.

    InDesign CC freezes when packaging files. Just spinning beachball. Need to Force Quit. Tried resetting Prefs at startup (holding down keys), but no change. Looking for path to  Default and Data files, but not finding them in Library. (D'oh!) Downloaded most recent CC versionlast night. Any ideas or should I try CC (2014)

    Hi Pam,
    I would certainly give CC2014 a try.
    Other than that, make sure there’s no illegal characters like slashes in the file or folder names and that the path is not too long.

  • Bridge CS4 freezes when I open a folder with avi files

    Whenever I navigate to a folder with avi files, Bridge CS4 freezes. I have tried resetting my preferences, changing the file associations, but it still hangs. Both Windows and Bridge are set up to associate avi files with VLC Media Player. The files open and play just fine in VLC. I am running CS4 on a Win XP Pro machine. It used to not be a problem and I could play avi files in Bridge. I'm not sure when the problem started since I don't shoot a lot of video. Any ideas?

    Thx for that im gonna try it....but is there a way to do it without using toolbar or cmd-c...? i mean using only the mouse?why does it have to highlight the file even though i click a bit next to it....?using icon view i can right click next to the folder and i wont have a problem but with list view that i prefer using it will highlight the whole row.....and i dont find free space to right click cause i got many files

  • CS4 freezes when building Blu-Ray

    Trying to build an ISO for a Blu-Ray project in Encore CS4 and whenever it transcodes the large file (6GB) it freezes when less than 1/4 of the way in. I have two files both exactly the same codec (H.264 1920x1080) and the first one is way smaller and happily transcodes, but the second one doesn't, but the file doesn't appear corrupt in anyway, it plays through fully on my system.
    I'm currently trying to transcode through the program before building it but it's just frozen again.
    Please help, I need this blu-ray asap.

  • CS4 - can't delete files/folders - doesn't match windows directory but works fine in DW8

    When I delete files/folders in CS4 the deletion is not reflected in my local windows directory.
    And if I exit CSW and reload CS4 all the files and folders are back again.
    I have never used cloaking but ran uncloak all with no result.
    But all this workd fine in DW8.
    Any thoughts?

    Oh... well  this is interesting... disk utility is say that it IS formatted MS-DOS (FAT32). Is that what's causing these errors? This thing has been running with my mac beautifully for years. So do I pull my stuff off, wipe it and reformat it for a mac? Or since it is FAT 32 can I hook it up to a windows computer and fix the problem? Since I had the wrong format, I can delete the files but if I don't fix the format this will keep happening?

  • CS4 Freezes when other video (flash/wmv) is played

    I was doing a CS4 tutorial on Lynda.com and couldn't figure out why Premiere kept freezing on every command I did. Then I realized it worked perfectly as long as I wasn't playing the flash video for the tutorial. So I switched from the flash video to their wmv option. Same thing happened.
    Why is Premiere freezing when I play a video outside the program? Is it really that sensitive? Sheesh
    My setup:

  • CS4 freezes when editing audio.

    Hello All,
    I have a client that has a workstation that freezes when she edits audio in CS4.  I have seen it happen and what it does is it keeps playing the audio but Adobe CS4 freezes until the audio is done playing or when she kills CS4.  I have reinstalled Adobe CS4, talked to Adobe technical support, reloaded her workstation with Vista 64 bit, put in another hard drive for the page file, and ran through every troubleshooting document I could find on the forums and Adobes website.  Her workstation is a Core2Quad 2.4GHz and 4GB of ram with Vista 64 bit.
    This is an on-going issue that needs to be solved ASAP and any help would be appreciated from other users.  I do not want to resort to calling Adobe technical support as I was not satisfied with their knowledge of their product.
    Thank you,
    Brian
    Edit:  Harm Millaard chime in if you have any suggestions.  You seem to be very helpful on these forums.  Also, you have a very impressive computer setup and props to you for putting it together.

    While I feel that the Assets, or the Project, are probably the culprits here, you might want to look over this ARTICLE on "tuning up" one's NLE computer. Might be something useful in it - if not now, then for later.
    Good luck,

  • Windows CS3 Programs Freeze When Opening Files

    Windows CS3, all programs freeze when trying to open files by going through the file menu.
    Able to open files when navigating with windows explorer then right clicking on file and choosing "open with"
    Windows XP Professional SP3, 4 Gb Ram Quad Core Processor.
    Have uninstalled and reinstalled CS3 (Design Premium)
    Have deleted photoshop settings file and tried using photoshop.
    Any time I try to open a new file or existing file by going through the file menu the program freezes and must be terminated using the task manager.

    Erika,
    I wish you had posted that last night. LOL I'm glad it worked for you and I will tell anyone who has this problem to try that before they try my fix. I was starting to have other problems like inDesign corrupting images.
    Here's how I fixed it,
    I DO NOT RECOMMEND THIS UNLESS YOU ARE WILLING TO RISK HAVING TO REFORMAT YOUR PC.
    1. Backup entire pc
    2. Deactivate Creative Suite 3 (or whatever application you are having a problem with)
    3. Uninstall problem application or suite, then uninstall everything by adobe.
    4. Search PC for all folders and files with "adobe", no quotes, in the name.
    5. Delete all folders and files with "adobe", no quotes, in the name.
    6. Restart PC
    7. Run ccleaner and also run the registry fix.
    8. Restart PC.
    9. Backup registry.
    10. Scan registry for "adobe", no quotes. Delete every instance of "adobe", no quotes making sure the reference is truly "adobe" and not something else.
    11. Restart PC.
    12. Install adobe suite or application.
    13. Install any other adobe application you may need.
    Worked for me, but
    I DO NOT   RECOMMEND THIS UNLESS YOU ARE WILLING TO RISK HAVING TO REFORMAT YOUR PC.

  • Error when deleting file: Could not find this item. This is no longer located in ...

    We are setting up a new Windows 2012 server. Users access this server using a 'terminal services'. We have mapped some folders from a legacy server (different domain). Using group policy preferences, we map this folder as a drive for a user.
    When user wants to delete some files, he get's the error: 'Could not find this item ..' The error is displayed to the user and it looks like the file can't be deleted. But when I press the F5 (refresh) button, the file is gone. My problem is very similar
    to a problem in the following post: http://social.technet.microsoft.com/Forums/windowsserver/en-US/042e747a-0e25-4190-b0a2-82f3e9635eb0/can-not-delete-file-error-is-could-not-find-this-item?forum=w7itprogeneral
    When I create 'txt' (or 'pdf', 'zip') file, i can delete it without the error. When I create 'xlsx', 'docx', 'pptx', 'bmp', 'jpg', I get the error.
    Does somebody have an idea, how can I fix the cause of this problem? (I can't tell to users to hit the F5 button everytime when they face this issue)
    Thank you for your help in advance!

  • CS2 freezes when saving files

    I'm running Windows 7 Ultimate 64 Bit and suddenly my files freeze when saving. Runing version 9.0.2. Can anyone help?

    Photoshop CS2. When I work on a file and click "save" it freezes. If I click save as, using the same name it freezes. If I save it and number or change the file name it save correctly without freezing. i.e. Save 1.jpg' save 2.jpg etc.

  • Solution to: AE CS4 Crashing when opening files or saving

    My After Effects kept on crashing whenever I tried saving a file or open any file. It took me hours but I just simply reset my preferences. You can do this while After Effects is opening - just hold CTRL/ALT/SHIFT.
    I hope this helps somebody!

    I installed CS4 on one machine but never booted it. Somehow today the CS4 icon started showing up on files and we're having trouble with files. We close them but the .idlk extension stays in the folder. I move to trash and get a prompt that the file is open or the same prompt when trying to empty trash. How do I stop CS4 from opening ID files short of removing the entire install? CS4 on Leopard iMac G5. The only way to get back to normal is to reboot. Constantly.

  • Freezes when adding files

    all was perfectly well, until i hit the update button and got 7.5.
    Now as soon as i try to add a file or a folder. Itunes freezes up and (though it still adds the files, about one album per two hours. And i get the "not responding" message if i try to do anything while its running.
    this only happens when importing files to the library, everything else works.
    ideas?

    It is always a good idea to run a virus and spyware scan before starting troubleshooting to elimate malware as a cause.
    There is an Apple article on troubleshooting freezes:
    http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=302856
    First check to see if the problem is User-specific by opening iTunes in another account.
    If the problem is system wide, try the section on "Conflicting Processes" first.
