Dreamweaver quitting on Intel Macbook

I've seen somewhere that other people had problems with dreamweaver quitting on an Intel Macbook.
It crashes on launch every time. Any idea which other preference files d/w might use apart from the com.macromedia.dreamweaver.plist?
Got sufficient RAM and already looked at the plist which seems in order. Tried trashing plist to no avail.

solved it myself. "showed package contents" on dreamweaver itself and launched via Terminal

    I just upgraded to lion on my intel macbook.  I would like to change my facetime alert to something different than a phone ring and, I would like to be able to have full screen.  How do I do this?

    Downgrade Lion to Snow Leopard
    1.  Boot from your Snow Leopard Installer Disc. After the installer loads select your language and click on the Continue button.  When the menu bar appears select Disk Utility from the Utilities menu.
    2. After DU loads select your hard drive (this is the entry with the mfgr.'s ID and size) from the left side list. Note the SMART status of the drive in DU's status area.  If it does not say "Verified" then the drive is failing or has failed and will need replacing.  SMART info will not be reported  on external drives. Otherwise, click on the Partition tab in the DU main window.
    3. Under the Volume Scheme heading set the number of partitions from the drop down menu to one. Set the format type to Mac OS Extended (Journaled.) Click on the Options button, set the partition scheme to GUID then click on the OK button. Click on the Partition button and wait until the process has completed.
    4. Quit DU and return to the installer. Install Snow Leopard.
    This will erase the whole drive so be sure to backup your files if you don't have a backup already. If you have performed a TM backup using Lion be aware that you cannot restore from that backup in Snow Leopard (see below.) I suggest you make a separate backup using Carbon Copy Cloner 3.4.1.
    If you have Snow Leopard Time Machine backups, do a full system restore per #14 in Time Machine - Frequently Asked Questions.  If you have subsequent backups from Lion, you can restore newer items selectively, via the "Star Wars" display, per #15 there, but be careful; some Snow Leopard apps may not work with the Lion files.

  • How do I extract AppleWorks from my 'dead' iBook G4 to my Intel MacBook?...

    I quite liked AppleWorks, it was good enough for me, little did I realise Macbooks don't come with a proper non-trial word processing facility - so I suppose Apple expect me to buy it, or the predecessor again.
    iBook G4   Mac OS X (10.4.4)  

    Well yes, I have the Panther Install and Restore discs that came with my defunct iBook G4, and also Tiger discs I bought to upgrade the OS after fitting a new hard drive, the Intel Macbook will not accept the Panther discs, and I couldn't find Appleworks on them anyway - maybe the machine came with it and Sound Studio (the two things I use most!) 'bundled', it's an expensive luxury keeping a mac I tell you.

  • 2007 Intel MacBook Pro Pinwheels and Loss of Sound

    Hello all,
    So, about three weeks my 15" 2007-model Intel MacBook Pro running Snow Leopard began acting very strangely. All at once, after my computer had been on for most of the day, the toolbar item processes like Airport, Sound, Time Machine, etc. all began to display rainbow pinwheels of doom, with about a 10-second return to normality every ten minutes or so. This caused computer actions like playing sound, connecting to internet, opening force-quit, changing volume, etc. to only occur (and all at once) within that 10-second window. Other processes like Safari ran smoothly but very slowly--tabs would reset themselves, Flash refused to load, pages did not change for tens of seconds.  Looking at my activity monitor, I could see that my CPUs were mostly idle, so I think that rules out some kind of malware coming in and gumming up the system. I tried restarting Finder, and then restarting the computer, but neither had any effect, and I also noticed that while shutting down, my computer would display the gray startup screen and a gray loading pinwheel for several minutes between leaving the desktop and powering off.
    However, this behavior went away after that night, and so I dismissed it as a minor problem and thought no more of it. In the intervening three weeks (about a week-and-a-half ago), I upgraded my machine to Lion so that I could start an iOS coding project for work--as I upgraded, I also got rid of a Boot Camp Windows partition I'd been carrying around and didn't need anymore.
    For the first two weeks, everything went fine, and there were no problems with Lion. However, this pinwheeling/slowdown problem has returned with a vengeance! The same symptoms have appeared, except they are becoming less and less intermittent/more persistent.
    I have also been able to verify that my software is completely up to date, and that restarts have no effect on this new appearance of my issue. It seems to come and go as it pleases.
    Does anyone have any idea what's going on or how to fix it?

    the toolbar item processes like Airport, Sound, Time Machine, etc. all began to display rainbow pinwheels of doom,
    For the toolbar issue... it's actually referreed to as the menu bar.
    Open the Finder. From the Finder menu bar click Go > Go to Folder
    Type this exactly as you see it here:
    ~/Library/Preferences/com.apple.systemuiserver.plist
    Clicik Go
    Move the  com.apple.systemuiserver.plist file to the Trash.
    Restart your Mac.
    If that didn't help, use Lion Recovery  to repair the startup disk if necessary, or reinstall the Mac OS X.

  • Can I install OS 9 on Intel MacBook?

    Hello there. I have an Intel MacBook running Mac OS X Leopard 10.5.1 (it's about 8 or 9 months old). As much as I love OS X, I miss the old classic environment and the style of the older OS versions, and I find myself feeling nostalgic (I also have a bunch of older software that I can't otherwise play, given that the Classic Environment is not supported on Intel Macs). If I were to purchase Mac OS version 9, is it possible to partition my hard drive and install Mac OS 9 on that partition? I would assume that this could be done, but can anyone tell me how to do it, or can anyone offer any links that provide good instructions on how this can be done? I've partitioned my hard drive with Boot Camp for installing Windows XP on my Mac, but I don't really have any experience other than that with partitioning hard drives or any idea how to do it, not to mention how to install an OS on it once it's partitioned. Any help in this direction will be greatly appreciated. Thanks a lot.

    Yes, OS 9 is PPC architecture only. The only way I can think of that you could possibly run it would be to download PearPC (A PPC architecture emulator-http://pearpc.sourceforge.net/) off of Windows (which is officially unsupported on Apple machines to begin with), and then attempt to run OS 9 off of PearPC.
    The program is rather slow, and as you can see, the process is really quite time consuming, illogical (three different systems, one running in emulation), and definitely not worth the end result.
    Good Luck,

  • Formatting my intel-MacBook (Tiger)

    Hi!
    I have 1 internal harddisk in my intel MacBook. This harddisk is partitioned to two different partitions, one for osx 10.4 tiger, and the other is for WinXP (FAT32). Here comes my problem:
    - I want to format my whole internal HD to only osx 10.4 (I want to delete the WinXP partition, restore it to a single disk volume, the reinstall osx!)
    The problem is that Bootcamp assis is expired in Tiger, so I can't just restore to a single disk!!
    I tried to reinstall Tiger (i thought that it might restore the disks to a single disk, then install osx) but it didn't help, is still have two different patitions!!!
    What should i do?? How do i solve this problem?? (allready searched the forum, nothing specific on my problem!!)
    Please tell me how to do, step by step, i'm new to mac!!

    use your Tiger install disc and mount to the desktop. select install OSX and let that disc boot the Mac. Once the install disc is booted then go to the top file menu and select disk utility. you may need to select your language first then go to disk utility. launch disk utility and select your hard drive then select partition and then make it ONE partition give it a name then let it do its thing. quit disk utility and continue with your Tiger install.

  • Unable to load Flash 9 on my Intel MacBook Pro

    Unable to load Flash 9 on my Intel MacBook Pro but can on my
    Intel iMac. I spoke with a Tech from the Mac Store service area and
    was told that there in a thread on this issue but I can't find it.
    The basic issue is that I am able to load Adobe Flash Player
    9 on my Intel iMac but not on my Intel MacBook Pro and I'm unable
    to determain why. I tryed uninstalling and reinstalling three times
    and found no difference.
    If someone could help me I'd be thankful.

    I bought the $29 version of Snow Leopard (not the kosher way of doing things, i know.
    If you read the license agreement, there's actually no difference between what's allowed with the $29 copy and the $169 boxed set. The only difference is that the boxed set also includes iLife and iWork. There is also, despite what some will have you believe, nothing in the license agreement that requires Leopard to be pre-installed except in the case of the $10 disk purchased as part of the Up-to-Date program (for folks who bought a machine shortly before SL was released). So, you're not being bitten by some technical requirement for Leopard to be present.
    I get a flashing folder with a question mark. My disk drive makes some crazy noises as well, and it seems to start running fast, then slowing down. I think it may have caused a minor scratch on the disk as well.
    Sounds like it's possible the drive could be failing, though that's impossible to say for sure remotely. One man's crazy noises are another man's normal state of operations. Do other DVDs work in your drive?
    I'll also need to do an "Archive & Install" since there are tons of important files on this machine.
    *DO NOT* attempt to install a system update on this machine unless you have good backups! If something goes wrong, you're screwed if you didn't have a backup. Hopefully, you have not reached that point already... I'm unclear on whether your machine is no longer able to boot, or if it's only having trouble when you try to boot from the SL disk.
    If your machine is still functional, your first priority before doing *+anything else+* should be to make at least two backups. See my [Mac Backup Guide|http://www.reedcorner.net/thomas/guides/backups> for assistance with this.
    If your machine can't boot anymore, let us know and we'll offer some troubleshooting tips. And don't try to do anything else with it until you've consulted with some expert, whether here or at an Apple Store or somewhere else.

    Yes you need to crossgrade to 5.1
    The offer only lasts until the end of December and after that it'll probably go back up to $699.
    Also I wanted to point out that you're in the Final Cut Express forum asking about Final Cut Pro. Not a huge deal but in the future you might get better results asking Final Cut Pro related questions in the Final Cut Pro forum.
    i know that if you hit esc will run but it is to slow my hp 2.0ghz is faster
    Your HP runs Final Cut Pro and DVD Studio Pro faster?!? Huh...Bwa?!?
    By this I assume you mean your HP runs comparative programs faster (Avid)

  • Westinghouse 32w3 LCD HDTV + Intel MacBook 1G Problem

    I just bought the DVI cables for my macbook, so I can watch dvd's 'n stuff on ye olde tv. Unfortunately, when I set the TV to it's highest progressive resolution (1360x768) the image on the tv is shifted to the left AND there is a weird vertical bar on the left portion of the screen where everything is cut off. If necessary, I can take a picture to show this.
    Does anybody know how to fix this problem?
    Note: I've read the other forum posts, there are no overscan options on my tv, and I played with the ones on the laptop.
    Correction: the display isn't working properly on 1280x1024 either. The right side drags out (don't know how to explain it) and the left side is still cut off a bit.
    Thanks.

  • Problems viewing HDV .mov file with Intel MacBook

    I have a HD QuickTime file exported from FCP HD on G5 PowerPC. I cannot play this file on my intel macbook, I get a white screen.
    Any idea why?
    Thanks
    Brian

    You'll need to copy the Apple HDV Codec to your MacBook. Since it won't be Intel native (unless you get FCP 5.1) you'll have to force QuickTime Player to run in Rosetta; it should be a setting in the Get Info window for QT Player. You should then be able to view the video (though I haven't tested this myself).
    Hope this helps.

  • IDvd 5 problem on Intel Macbook!

    I am having problems running iDVD 5 on Intel Macbooks. iDVD 5 loads up, the themes show up in the side tray and the music plays. However, the themed "images and drop zones" are not visible in the main window.... in its place, only a black background with the word "Travel cards" on the Travel theme, "Memories" on the Memories theme, etc, etc.
    I've deleted every reference to iDVD (packages, plists, aliases, etc.) Emptied trash, rebooted, reinstalled and repaired permissions.

    Good suggestions.
    All updates in OS, DVD and QT done.
    Oddly, if I dig down and open any theme's "package contents" the background image (tif) and other components can be opened and viewed. So strange.

  • Watching online video on a new Intel-MacBook

    I am unable to watch online videos on my new MacBook. The windows media player alarm comes up telling me I don't have the right plug-in. I believe that is the Quicktime component add-on. This still doesn't work. How can watch online video (like cnn.com for example) on my Intel MacBook?

    The intel flip4mac beta is no longer available so you can't use it.
    Therefore install windows media player from http://www.mactopica.com
    You could then force safari to open under rosetta and the windows media plugin should work.
