Device central seems to be stalling ad-aware scan and avg scan

hello;
yesterday I ran a scan with AVG anti-virus, and it seemed to
really get bogged down ( about 8 hours ) as it scanned through the
adobe/adobe device central cs3/ directory, especially the XML
files;
now today I am running a scan with Ad-Aware, and the same
problem is occurring;
has anyone else had this issue; furthermore is device central
something I even need - what is it?
thanks

Hello JimNC,
And welcome to Apple Discussions!
It's nothing to worry about. Check out this article on how to get this pop up error to disappear when you plug in your iPod.

Using Device Central CS5.5 offline or Obtain online libraries for local (offline) use

Device Central CS5.5 cannot navigate my proxy server, and my security unit is never going to provide an exception to allow it.
I need Device Central to at least start-up so I can review some mobile website designs. But all I get upon starting DC is two requests for my proxy credentials then a message stating DC cannot connect to the online library. Clicking OK to the "no connection" message shuts DC down. Why? Why can I not use the software without a constant connection to the Internet?
That is
where can I download the libraries for local use, what adress is it attpemting to connect to?
where do I put them so CS5.5 can find and use them?
How do I get CS5.5 to stop trying to connect to the Internet at start up when I cannot get to the properties to change the setting?
I found this note http://helpx.adobe.com/legacy/kb/device-central-cs4-cannot-connect.html providing an offline solution for DC CS4 which deos not work with CS5.5.
Thanks,
-Greg

Hi Eric,
CS5 Help is usually located at /usr/<username>/Library/Preferenecs/chc.487...../Local Store/Help folder.
CS6 help is usually downloaded to the shared location, unless it is restricted. In that case the above folder may be used for downloading help.
Yes, the offline content setting in Adobe Help Manager, will work for both CS5 and CS6 help and help clients.
'Expired Status' usually refers to the state when local content goes stale, and there is new offline content available on Adobe.com servers. Yes, a user may click on Download/Update button to update the expired content from Adobe Help Manager.
Regarding the CS5 product help launch, I will need some more information to provide a reply.
1. Which product and version of CS5 is the customer facing problem with.
2. What is the status of help downloaded for the same product (CS5 or CS6 in Adobe Help Manager)
3. Is the user able to see downloaded help in the above mentioned folders
Let me know if you have more queries.
Regards,
Sandeep

Jquery mobile example and device central test

Hi
Having created in Dreamweaver the default template for Jquery Mobile ( Page from sample > Mobile Starters>jquery mobile (local) ) and saved to localhost as well as on the web I decided to test in device central using preview in the device central option.
in device central I used the Apple Iphone 4 emulator and could see that I was able to proceed to page 2 by clicking on it , however clicking on the back button does not work.
This is the same for all pages in the JQM example.
I then tried this on a web emulator http://www.testiphone.com/ and the back button works OK. So does this mean that device central is not working correctly or have i missed something

Hi
Have a look at http://forums.adobe.com/message/3857648#3857648 not sure how long it takes for fix to be implemented.

Problems with Flash Professional CS5 and Device Central CS5

I have Adobe CS5 Web premium, Windows 7 64-bit. (All updates on both)
My problem is that when I press create on Device Central it doesn't set up the flash document specs for the particular device I am trying to build an app for. It does the same thing when I try to create a new Adobe Device Central document in flash. However when I try and create mobile documents for photoshop, illustrator or fireworks it works fine. It is just when I try and create one for flash.
Any suggestions?

I realize this is an old thread, but I am having the same problem. In Device Central CS 5.5, I first selected Browse and dragged the HTC Droid Incredible, Motorola Droid 2, and Motorola Droid X to the Test Devices pane. Then I selected Motorola Droid 2 and clicked the Create button. At this point, the three devices that I added are grayed out, and the New Document pane says "To start, please select device(s) in the 'Test Devices' panel." The Motorola Droid 2 is still selected in the Test Devices panel, but as I said, it is grayed out.
What am I msising?

The Adobe product that installed "Adobe Device Central" has not been activated.

After the download for the CS5.5 Design Standard finished, I pressed the handy button labeled "Download Complete! Open bundle." However, when I press that, I get a message that says:
Thank you for using "Adobe Device Central". The Adobe product that installed "Adobe Device Central" has not been activated. Please launch and activate that Adobe product before continuing to use "Adobe Device Central".
This has been the case for multiple attempts at varied times. What do I do?

Christy Wurtz can you please post a screen shot of this error? Where are you downloading the installation files for Creative Suite 5.5 from?

Device Central Profile for iPhope 4.. not seem to find where to get it!

Hey,
I've done some search and for something that should be strait forward I can't find a profile for the new iPhone. Can someone direct me to the right place please?
Also, is the Device Central the best way to do app testing apart from publishing the app to the actual device?
Thanks,
Dani

Its not the best way, but still you can check your output from there. Because for example you can't able to check the accelerometer output in the standard flash players instead you can test it there in the device central. Also like touch events and other events only supported in the mobile able to test it there. So it always useful but its not the best way, the output differs from the direct device sometimes.

When i try to open a .swf file, it goes to adobe device central as default

when i try to open a .swf file, it goes to adobe device central as default. i can't seem to open it in adobe flash????

You likely need to change the default application(s) assigned for opening files to point to the new ones. HOw you do that depends on which operating system you have. If you search Google you should be able to find out how to change the default programs for different files.

Flash player for Device central

Every time i try to preview a page in device central
i get a message saying i need a flash player plugin. I click on ok
and it takes me to adobe site that has download links for flash
player 9. I have downloaded it 3 times now and i keep getting the
same message. I cant view flash content on my pages with device
central. I have a new IMac with Leapord 10.5.2

Yes, we're well aware that Firefox on Win8.1 is not the most stable choice. You're far better off with IE or Chrome on Win8.1 at the moment. There's no magic bullet there, and we're collaborating with Mozilla to resolve the long-standing issues on that config.
The work in Flash Player for this effort is in the current shipping version, but they depend on Firefox 40 or higher (nightly.mozilla.org) and the latest Flash Player beta (http://www.adobe.com/go/flashplayerbeta). You should see some improvement on that config, but you also get a bunch of experimental Firefox features, so there are no guarantees. It would be interesting to know if you see an improvement there.

Updating Opera apps inside Bridge (and Device Central)

I have just discovered that CS4 installs a copy of Opera in both Bridge and Device Central.
These are not updated by Adobe Updater, and are now a few versions old.
Is it a good/bad idea to update these manually?
I don't use Opera otherwise, so these are only there for whatever Bridge and Device Central use them for.
Thanks

That's logical enough, but hard for an update junkie like me! I had already updated my MacPro before I stopped and thought well maybe this isn't such a great idea, so I have left my MacBook Pro with the old versions.

Adobe CS5.5 Device Central freeze on install

I've been attempting to install Adobe CS5.5 Web Premium on Lion over the past few days with no success.
When the installer reaches "Adobe Device Central CS5.5" (Approx 15%), the total time remaining shoots up to 2 hours and eventually just freezes.
I have looked around the Internet trying to find a solution but nothing seems to work - just wondering if anyone had any possible fixes on here?
(Macbook late 2009 2.26ghz Intel core 2 duo)
Note: I've tried the Adobe CS Removal Tool and installing Java runtime.

I do not know if this will fix the installer issue you are having with CS5 Web Premium, but it worked for a freezing CS5 InDesign install.
Reboot into safe mode (hold the shift key down till the grey bar shows up at the bottom of the display) then try the install.

Device Central will not load web pages

Started using Device Central to view a web site I'm designing
for a client. Loading within Dreamweaver and Device Central, pages
will not load, the program stalls. I have had no luck in finding
information on-line and cannot re install the application ( it's
not listed in the reinstall items on my Adobe Web Premium CD ) .
Some help would be much appreciated!! Running OS X 10.5 on a 2.4
GHz Intel Core Duo Mac Book Pro.

Right but like so many things, what works for you does not
work for me (this was while loading a locally stored, plain old
html page in the same manner you used).
Here
is a screenshot of what I get which is then followed by
this
screenshot.
Perhaps it is a Mac only problem. Until Adobe does or says
something about it... who knows.

Device Central on Dreamweaver 4.0

The Device Central utility in Dreamweaver 4.0 appears to only emulate website appearance on smart phones. Is there a way to set it so that it emulates tablet computers? I'm particularly interested in Samsung and Amazon tablets.

Here is a tutorial on Device Central CS4.
It shows the correct way to download new devices.
But here is what I notice: Device Cental CS3 (the last version I had before CS5.5) does not seem to be able to download any new profiles beyond some really old devices. There is no iPhone, iPad or Samsung Galaxy. Device Central CS3 also crashes frequently on startup.
I have never used it. Websites I'm building for certain devices also have to work on regular browsers, so I will test on my iPhone 4 and my iPad, but my main target is my browser.
I also have JavaScript in several of my websites that dynamically reformats a website for mobile devices. Device Central doesn't seem to be able to show that. So reality™ may be better than Device Central anyway.

Device Central devices read mobile css?

I am working with Device Central CS5.5. Are the devices supposed to read the media type handheld css? I have had no success in this. There were a few messages posted, but they didn't seem to me to come to any conclusion. What is it that must be done for the devices to read the mobile css?

Hi
I wrote that.
While it is a good intro it isn't a comprehensive solution.
Designing
for mobile devices is fairly complex due to the fact that
many devices
don't read handheld style sheets, they don't even look for
them. You
also have take into consideration how Opera SSR works and how
its triggered.

Removed unneeded languages - now can't run Device Central?

Hi there,
I can't run Device Central at all - I get the following error (attached as image)
I suspect this is because I removed some unneeded languages using Monolingual.
Surely if I'm developing for the English-speaking market, DC shouldn't fail to start at all because I don't have Thai script, for example.
Urgent help required as I now have a mobile project to complete!
Sincerely,
Luke Munn

Some quick additional notes.
I'm running Mac OSX 10.4
I have DC CS3 and DC CS4, the first from a Photoshop Elements install I believe and the second from Flash CS4, my main workspace.
I've just tried running the CS3 version of Device Central and this seems to work fine.
But obviously I'd like to run the CS4 version for it's new features, for better integration with Flash, etc.

How do I deactivate device central

I have clicked on Device Central in the set up menu for a new document in PS5. I wanted to see what it did, thinking I could deactivate it. Unfortunately this doesn't seem to be the case. I want to go back to the normal menu so I can print my fine art images on PAPER. Please let me know how to deactivate device central.
Thanks
ProArt

I'm not sure what you mean.
Clicking on device central opens device central, but even if you create a new document that opens in photoshop, you should still be able to create a new file
in photoshop without device central opening.
Did you quit device central after opening it?
