Dreamweaver hangs when other CS programs are running,

If I run Dreamweaver (4 or 5.5) on its own (with no other CS programs running) it works fine; but the minute I run another CS program (InDesign for example) Dreamweaver eventually hangs and is shown as not responding in Activity Monitor.

I'm running 10.7.4, but I gave up trying to solve the issue so I uninstalled ALL my creative suite applications and re-installed. Problem solved.

When Firefox tries to do auto update at start I get an error message saying update failed, be sure no other Firefox programs are running. Since none are running I am not sure what to look for. What can I do to eliminate this error?

As I start Firefox the automatic update tells me that Firefox will open after updete finishes. I then receive an error message that tells me the update failed. It also says to be sure there are no other versions ov Firefox running. There are no other instances of Firefox running so the error must be generating from some other issue. Need some hints so I can look further. THis happens on two of 4 computers: a desktop running W7 Ultimate and this web book running W7 Home Premium.

Firefox 6. says update is available. when i try to install error that other firefox is currently running so update will not install. then firefox starts. i verified no other programs are running on the pc but still get same message

This began when an auto update was downloaded to my pc late August. I do use thunderbird 6.02 and that is up to date. That I closed before Firefox update attempt. Task mnager in windows 7 says no programs are running. Current version in firefox is 6.0 with update available when i go to help about firefox.

If there are problems with updating then best is to download the full version and uninstall the currently installed version.

I just got an IPAD2 on Saturday. With the Mac, I could always tell when programs were open/running by going to the menu bar. How can I tell what programs are running in the background. I am struggling with not being able to go to a menu bar at the top

You can see which apps are open and/or recently used by double-clicking the home button to bring up the taskbar at the bottom of the screen (not all apps that appear there are active) - you can then close apps on it by pressing and holding one of them for a couple of seconds or so until they start shaking, then press the '-' in the top left of the Mail app to close it, and touch any part of the screen above the taskbar so as to stop the shaking and close the taskbar. If you have an app 'open' on-screen then it won't appear on the taskbar, you will need to go back to the homescreen first, and it should then show when you next open the taskbar.
If you haven't already got a copy then you can download the iPad manual from here : http://support.apple.com/manuals/#ipad

Why do I get a norwegian version of MUSE when all the other Adobe programs are in english version? I have setup the installer to English.

Why do I get a norwegian version of MUSE when all the other Adobe programs are in english version? I have setup the installer to English.

Muse uses AIR and if that is installed in Norwegian, so Muse will show stuff in that language. You may simply need to reinstall Adobe AIR in English.

How can I tell if programs are running in the background.

iPod touch version 4.2.1, how can I tell if programs are running in the background. Battery is dead quickly and time/date reverts to Dec 31, 1969. can see thin silver frame around screen like something is running in background.

You really can't tell unless you hear music or similar. Many are always listening for notifications and other things.
To preserve battery life see the following:

I leave mine in airplane mode when sleeping.

Several programs are running at Startup

Hi Everyone, I truly need your assistance as I am a novice to the internal workings (system Admin) of the computer (Windows 7). My computer is performing terribly and when I check the "troubleshoot" system it tells me that "SEVERAL PROGRAMS
ARE RUNNING AT STARTUP". I know this a simple "fix" if you know what you are doing but I don't. Please help me....someone.
How do you know which programs are the ones needed at STARTUP?.

It the Resume feature.
When choosing Restart, Sleep or Shutdown there is a checkbox you can uncheck to prevent the apps from launching.
Also in System Preferences > General there is a hard-to-find checkbox under "Number of recent items" you can turn off.
Also, you can hold the shift key to disable resume on a one time basis.
If you want to turn it off on a per app basis, (TextEdit is by example, replace TextEdit with the name of the app)
Launch Terminal and copy/paste this at the prompt...
defaults write com.apple.TextEdit NSQuitAlwaysKeepsWindows -bool false
Press return.
You can also accomplish this through the GUI by going to ~/Library/Saved Application State/TextEdit and delete that file…
(note that the User Library is hidden - one way to get there is to go to your Finder "Go" menu hold the option key to choose "Library")
To turn off Resume globally...
chflags uchg ~/Library/"Saved Application State"
Press return
The reverse of the first one is to replace false with true.
The reverse of the second one is
chflags nouchg ~/Library/"Saved Application State"
Again, you can accomplish this through Finder by going to ~/Library/Saved Application State and deleting the folder.

How do I find out if other firefox copies are running? The software update keeps saying it won't install because I need to check if other copies are running.

The update popped up, I clicked to install and it keeps popping up when I open Firefox that it cannot install because I need to check and see if other firefox copies are running. I do not know how to do that and why wouldn't firefox be able to tell if other copies are running and tell me how to delete them if that is what is necessary

Do a clean (re-)install:
* Download a fresh Firefox copy and save the file to the desktop.
* Firefox 4.0: http://www.mozilla.com/en-US/firefox/all.html
* Firefox 3.6.x: http://www.mozilla.com/en-US/firefox/all-older.html
* Uninstall your current Firefox version and remove the Firefox program folder before installing that copy of the Firefox installer.
* Do not remove personal data if you uninstall the current version.
* It is important to delete the Firefox program folder to remove all the files and make sure that there are no problems with files that were leftover after uninstalling.
Your bookmarks and other profile data are stored elsewhere (not in the Firefox program folder) and won't be affected by a reinstall, but make sure that you do not select to remove personal data if you uninstall Firefox.

Getting the variant name when the report program is run in background

Hi All,
How to get the variant name for the report program when run in background? My requirement is to create an email attachement with the name 'variant.XLS', where variant = selection screen variant, when the report program is run in background. The system field SY-SLSET holds the variant name only when run online.
Any pointers to this will be highly appreciated.
Thanks and regards,

How do you know what programs are running?

Is there any way to tell from the Dock which programs are running? In Tiger there use to be a little black arrow underneath the app. What's changed in Leopard?

The default Leopard Dock indicators are a bit difficult to see with the light background and 3D glass effect. If you would like to have a different look then go to http://www.leoparddocks.com/ I'm using the "Revamped" design.

Using Dreamweaver CS5 with other CS4 programs

I want to purchase Dreamweaver CS5 for my work computer because it is the same version I have on my personal computer, and I want the two to be compatible. However, there are other Adobe CS4 programs on my work computer (InDesign, Illustrator, etc.). Will any problems arise by having Dreamweaver CS5 and other CS4 programs on the same computer? Any input is appreciated. Thanks in advance!

Are you intending to purchase a standalone version of Dreamweaver CS5?
Your work computer has probably got a CS4 Creative Suite installed (Design Premium CS4?).
You won't be able to upgrade Dreamweaver CS4 (from the Suite) on your work computer to standalone Dreamweaver CS5. It's not a valid upgrade path.
Tip: CS6 is due to be released very soon.
http://store.adobe.com/store/en_us/popup/offer/cs55_cs6_faqchannel.html
Although free upgrades from CS5 (purchased after 26 March 2012) are available, there is some paperwork involved. In your position, I personally prefer to wait until CS6 ships - unless CS5 is really the version you want, of course.

Hi Amanda,
Software applications are usually installed in the Applications folder on the Macintosh HD and are accessible to all users.
I would advise you to check the Applications folder and see if your software is in there.
Next step would be to Control Click or Right Click on the application and choose "Get Info" and make sure the permissions are set to "Read & Write" for all users. The article below provides more details:

You may need to contact Adobe Support if this does not resolve your issue:

Photoshop cs6 is not working in windows 7 64 bit while all other cs6 programs are working.. what should I do make it work

hi guys,
My photoshop cs6 is not working in windows 7 64 bit while all other cs6 programs are working.. what should I do make it work?
My OS is windows 7
RAM - 8gb
HDD - 1 TB

are you getting any errors?
and secondly and I know this from experience, ( but on 32 bit ) is it loaded already as in sat in task manager, but not actually get at able, killing the processes cures it or a reboot of course

ISight indicator light on even when no programs are running.

The green indicator light next to the built-in iSight camera is on, even though the only program currently running is Safari. Furthermore this seems to be causing the camera to show nothing but that same shade of green when I open Photobooth. The color settings are set for millions, so I know that's not the problem. Any and all suggestions are welcome.

Hi. First, I suggest you install the most updated software from Apple. Try resetting the SMC as well. Here's the steps:

If none of this works, it is possible that you have a hardware issue. Try going to an Apple Store.

Dreamweaver hangs when opening

Running DW MX 2004, with updater 7.0.1 applied, on a Sony PC
with Win XP, DW hangs when opening. I have waited as long as 10
minutes to see it it every responds, and it doesn't.
I have to CTRL-ALT-DEL and terminate the application. When
re-opening, it opens normally.
Not connected to a network, site files on local C drive.
It seems to have started happening after applying the 7.0.1
updater.
Anyone have any solutions to this?

Hi JillTW,
DW 7 had some serious time lags. Search the
Macromedia.Dreamweaver groups on
Google's groups for slow DW and look for postings over a year
old. The fixes
they discuss may help solve your lockup problem.
If you are working on a large site, 10 minutes might not be
enough time for
DW 7 to resolve cache issues. Look at your Task Manager to
see if it is
working (high cpu usage on Dreamweaver.exe) or not
responding. Even if it is
not responding a high CPU usuage may mean it is in progress
and just
ignoring the keyboard/mouse.
Also, you might want to try to clear the site cache (or just
check its
size - a little one should not take long to process even if
corupt) before
starting DW. Adobe tells how to remove the cache here:
http://www.adobe.com/cfusion/knowledgebase/index.cfm?id=5989f7f4
Look for the cache in: C:\Documents and
Settings\<user>\Application
Data\Macromedia\Dreamweaver MX 2004\Configuration\SiteCache
The file is named: {yoursitenamehere}.dws
I suggest moving it to another folder for safe keeping until
you know if
this is the problem.
Upgrading to DW8 is a major improvement in speed.
Best of luck,
Alan C
