CS5.5 Flash Builder will not open after unistallation and reinstallation

10.8 up to date...
I have been fighting with CS5.5 on 10.8 since august 8th!  Adobe helped somewhat, by helping me assure permissions were correctly set on their files. However, when i go back into the get info window , once in a while instead of seeing one of the admin users (myself and my husband) listed, I see a "fetching" in the user name colum.  it just keeps searching and never stops.  I have to delete the fecting and manually add our admin accounts to the permissions list.  Also, in my user home folder the applications file is empty, but I can access all the apps from the HD or doc/apps alias.  Is this a new thing for 10.8?
So I am down to this..., only Flash Buidler 4.5 will not open. I think it has somethings to do with the extensions.  The software is up to date. Flash reinstalled, unistalled FB 4.5 and reinstalled from disk.   Deleted and re-downloaded/ installed eclipse app. Niether of the original app disks have the extensions forder on it.  I went to the Adobe sight and dowloaded their version of the extras (Flex builder extension, i think .)
Adobe help articles say to make sure the ...
Following installation it is recommended that you edit the eclipse.ini file for your Eclipseinstance, so that it includes the following settings:
-vmargs -Xms256m -Xmx512m -XX:MaxPermSize=256m -XX:PermSize=64m "
I have no idea how to do this.  I found the file once, though I did not know how to open and edit it.
Below, is a weird list of error messages from disk repair log:

OS X has two Applications: one in your user folder and the other at the top of the volume. Applications are installed in /Applications, and you should use the user folder for applications that you are going to open in your account only, and not in another one.
Open Java Preferences and install it

  • Itunes will not open after uninstall and re-download, I only get a message itunes match accessing itunes store which goes on for a long time

    I could not open I-tunes.  I had used it a week before but it was spotty and then eventually it would not open at all.   I uninstalled it then downloaded it.  I restarted the computer.  When I tried to open itunes, I got a message "ITunes match. Accessing iTunes store" and it does not go beyond that.  I've tried this process twice.  I had my Norton support service do a tuneup and they downloaded iTunes but it will still not work. help!

  • Safari will not open despite restart and reinstallation of OS.

    When I open safari, I cant access any menus (I just see the color wheel when I hover over any menus).  On activity monitor, Safari uses increasingly larger amounts of memory.  I have to force quit to get out of the application.  Ive restarted numerous times and reinstalled OS X.  Any thoughts?

    Back up all data before proceeding.
    Quit Safari if it’s running. Then select
               ▹ Force Quit…
    from the menu bar. A small window will open with a list of running applications. Safari may appear in that list, even though you quit it. If so, select it and press return. Close the window.
    Step 1
    If Adobe Flash Player is installed, select
               ▹ System Preferences… ▹ Flash Player ▹ Advanced ▹ Delete All...
    In the sheet that opens, check the box marked
              Delete All Site Data and Settings
    then click Delete Data. Close the preference pane.
    Hold down the option key and select
              Go ▹ Library
    from the Finder menu bar. Delete the following items from the Library folder (some may not exist):
              Caches/com.apple.Safari
              Caches/com.apple.Safari.SearchHelper
              Caches/com.apple.SafariServices
              Caches/com.apple.WebKit.PluginProcess
              Caches/com.apple.WebProcess
              Caches/Metadata/Safari
              Preferences/com.apple.WebKit.PluginHost.plist
              Preferences/com.apple.WebKit.PluginProcess.plist
              Saved Application State/com.apple.Safari.savedState
    Leave the Library folder open. Try Safari again. If the problem is solved, stop here. Close the Library folder. If you still have a problem, continue.
    Step 2
    Move the following items from the open Library folder to the Desktop (again, some may not exist):
              Cookies/Cookies.binarycookies
              Internet Plug-Ins
              Preferences/ByHost/com.apple.Safari.*.plist
              Preferences/com.apple.Safari.Extensions.plist
              Preferences/com.apple.Safari.LSSharedFileList.plist
              Preferences/com.apple.Safari.plist
              Preferences/com.apple.WebFoundation.plist
              PubSub/Database
              Safari
              SyncedPreferences/com.apple.Safari.plist
    Here, "*" stands for a long string of letters, numbers, and dashes.
    Note 1: You are not moving the Safari application. You’re moving a folder named “Safari.”
    Note 2: This step will remove your Safari extensions, if any, and their settings. If you choose to reinstall them, do so one at a time, testing each time to make sure you haven’t restored the problem.
    Try again. Your settings and bookmarks will be lost. The default set of bookmarks will be restored. Delete them all.
    If Safari is now working normally (apart from the lost settings), look inside the “Safari” folder on the Desktop for a file named “Bookmarks.plist”. Select
              File ▹ Import Bookmarks...
    from the Safari menu bar. Import from that file. Recreate the rest of your Safari settings. You can then delete the items you moved to the Desktop.
    If the issue is still not resolved, quit Safari again and put all the items you moved to the Desktop back where they were, overwriting the newer ones that may have been created in their place. You don’t need to replace the files you deleted in Step 1. Stop here and post again.
    If you don’t like the results of the last step, you can undo it completely by quitting Safari and restoring the items you moved or deleted in that step from your backup, overwriting any that were created in their place.

  • Organizer will not open after I tried backing up photos on external hard drive on Mac. Editor opens, but not Organizer. This is a repost of a problem first reported 10 days ago.

    Organizer will not open after I tried backing up photos on an external hard drive on Mac. Editor opens, but will not launch Organizer. Have tried clearing the catalogs, but nothing works. This was first reported 10 days ago. Had to be out of the country for a week - without photoshop working-- and now I'm back with the same problem. Can someone please help, or do I dump this and try to get some help just reloading the program?

    jnrmendonca
    It had 4 years of photos and videos on it.
    To what did your camera record those photos and videos - camera's internal memory, inserted memory card, other?
    Any remote chance that the latter may still exist for you to use to download the camera files to your new external hard drive?

  • Bridge cc will not open after trying to add patch aom package (adobe output module) to workspace

    bridge cc will not open after trying to add patch aom package (adobe output module) to workspace. this patch was recommended by adobe help to allow creating pdf presentations. the help stated bridge cc was shipped without this and to download aom package win 64. I tried that, and either did something wrong or? I deleted bridge cc 64 bit, then went to cc and downloaded bridge cc (not sure if it is 32 or 64) and the program still does not open. any ideas?

    There are lots of threads on this.  Do a web search.

  • Mail Application will not open after 10.6.8 update

    So, I'm currently trying to update my parent's computer and in the process of updating their Mail application it has become unusable.  My computer at home (not my parents computer) ran into the same problem before I updated to Lion and deleting the preferences for Mail solved it.  Plus, I have read previous posts about this similar problem and a typical troubleshooting solution was to delete the Mail preferences.
    After all of my software updates (Mac OS X Snow Leopard 10.6.8) and deleting the preferences for Mail, I still receive the same error message when trying to open the application.  "Mail can't be used on this version of mac OS X.  Try opening the version of Mail located in the Applications foler on your computer."  My applications folder has not been adjusted, edited or even touched from it's original state in the dock/home folder.
    I contacted AppleCare support and they advised me to reformat my computer.  I think that's a little... unneccesary??  It's just Mail that isn't working.  The rest of the applications (e.g. Safari, Address Book, iPhoto, etc.) open just fine.
    Anyway, do you have any advice or insight to my problem here?
    Much appreciated!  Thanks!

    After a second call to AppleCare, they had advised me differently than before.  Once they found out that my personal computer has Mac OS X Lion installed from the App Store, they suggested I simply upgrade my parents computer to Lion.
    So, I used my download from the App Store and upgraded.  It went smoothly, but Mail still will not open properly.  And instead of the original error message, it comes up with this:
    "Check with your developer to make sure Mail can work with your version of Mac OS X.  You may need to reinstall the application.  Check if there are any updates available for the application."
    How can I re-install just Mail?  A startup disk is not accessible for me right now.  Can I download the latest version of Mail and install it from the Apple.com website?

  • Quicktime will not open after upgrading to "Snow"

    Quicktime will not open after upgrading to "Snow". The light underneath the dock icon lights up but the application does not open. Suggestions?

    Actually, wasting bandwidth is a waste of people's resources who offer to help here. You posted and got answers to your post. What you thought of that would be better (for you) was posting it in every corner of AD that might get read would give you a response 30 nanoseconds faster than posting once. So read your answer and enjoy your computer.
    All you need to do is post in the right forum section, and wait for a response. It will come unless nobody has a clue which rarely occurs.

    Mail is open but it is frozen, being this the reason why you cannot open the Mail window. Press Alt, Command and Esc keys or go to  > Force Quit, select Mail and force quit it. Finally, you will be able to turn off or restart the MacBook

    Can you attach a screenshot or link to the instructions you are following?
    You are on the 3.6 release and Firefox 7.0.1 is out. You can download and install the latest release from http://www.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/new/ if you would like to update now. The 3.6 version will be maintained for a while longer, but you should update when you can.

  • Digital Editions 4.0 will not open after installation on Windows  XP laptop.

    Digital Editions  4.0 will not open after installation on Windows XP laptop.  DigitalEditions 3.0 installs and opens fine.  Have tried 4.0 several times.  Removed 3.0 and 4.0, reboot, reinstall 4.0 still will not open.  Error message says Windows has experienced and problem and requires that Digital Editions must be shut down.

    Solved my own problem. It was necessary to delete all instances of Adobe Digital Editions in programs and  the registry. After doing so and reinstalling 4.02...., it became available in the "open with" dialogue box and became the default epub reader.

    Thanks

    Thanks avanishdivya.
    I was hoping to avoid that route, but guess it's all I can do.
    Thanks for your quick response.
    Do you know if it is a Carbon Copy Cloner issue or just the way Adobe sets it up?
    For future reference, where should the scratch disk reside? I heard it should not be on the boot drive?
