Error 990 - Memory could not be read

When launching Flash Professional 8, the following
application error is generated as the splash screen indicates fonts
are initializing:
990: Flash.exe - Application error
The instruction at "0x6172676f" referenced memory at
"0x6172676f". The memory could not be "read".
Click on OK to terminate the program.
Click on Cancel to debug the program.
[OK] [Cancel]
With each uninstall and reinstallation of Flash the error
number changes as well as the memory address location.
Has anyone experienced this error and have a solution?
Reinstalling & rebooting did not solve it.

I had a similar problem with Flash MX 2004, and it turned out
to be related to a Quick Time problem. (I was also unable to play
any Quick Time files, so you might want to check that on your end
to help troubleshoot as your cause as well.)
QT was so corrupt on my system, I couldn't even uninstall it
using the normal methods. Our IT department had to manually remove
everything on my system related to Quick Time. After that, I
uninstalled/reinstalled Flash, and then reinstalled Quick Time, and
everything has been fine since. (In fact, I've upgrade to v8 since
then...)
I originally thought my problem was a corrupt font, since it
was during the "loading fonts" part of the start-up, but utlimately
the Quick Time issue fixed it. I worked with Macromedia (at the
time) tech support on it, but can't find the e-mail thread.
UPDATE:
I found the old thread, here is the pertinent message from
Macromedia Support that led to the resolution:
""I'm sorry to hear that you're still having the same issue,
I've been evaluating the said forum thread and I think I remember
something about the QuickTime player issue. For some reason, older
or broken components in QuickTime can also cause Flash to
malfunction as Flash needs it for some operations.
I recommend that you download the latest QuickTime, uninstall
your current version, reboot and install the new QuickTime player,
then uninstall and reinstall Flash using the same routine I
provided previously".

  • Receive an Application Error (The memory could not be "read") when opening

    After I install Itunes the program works ok until I close it and try to reopen. When I do this I receive an Application Error that says:
    The instruction at "0x6686f183" referenced memory at "0x0fccc094". The memory could not be "read".
    Click OK to terminate the program
    Click CANCEL to debug the program
    Debugging does not work so the only solution is to uninstall Itunes and then reinstall. That again only works for one use of the program. As soon as I close it and re-open, I get the same error. Please HELP. I cannot waste any more time uninstalling and reinstalling.

  • Application Error: "The memory could not be 'read'."

    I am programming an application in C#.
    I am using an Acrobat Reader control on my form to display PDFs within my program.
    I have tried a couple of different configurations with the form control. I have drag-and-dropped the control prior to runtime. I have also tried to add the control dynamically.
    When I run the program, then activate the control and close the form, I get the following error.
    "sw:name.exe - Application Error; The instruction at "0x0700609c" referenced memory at "0x00000014". The memory could not be 'read'. Click on OK to terminate the program."
    I have googled this error for hours now, and cannot find anything that truly explains this error and how to fix it.
    Thank you for any help.

    To who may be interested, I managed to find a workaround for this bug in Adobe Reader 9.0.
    It seems that, somehow, LabVIEW, and other programming tools, straggle with this version of Adobe (I assume that this is due to this bug) when closing the reference to Adobe created by the ActiveX container.  So the solution would be closing "by hand" this reference, and telling Windows to free all the relation between the application (LabVIEW for us) and Adobe.  The idea is that when we've done with the VI which displays the PDF via ActiveX, we should close the reference to the ActiveX control, close the reference to the VI, and:
      - process all the Windows messages currently in the message queue (.NET:  System.Windows.Form.Application -> DoEvents
      - run CoFreeUnusedLibraries in "ole32.dll"
    I hope this information can help somebody, as I wasted too much time to figure this out (finding eventually the answer in a forum of Adobe!)
    P.S. For those who program in C# as well, check this link; this was my source.

  • Cannot Change Data Source - Error The memory could not be "read"

    We have some reports that were created under Crystal Reports version 10 using a Sybase 12.5 database as the datasource.  We have since upgraded to Sybase 15 ASE and we are also attempting to upgrade these reports to Crystal Reports version 11.5.  The reports will convert to version 11.5 but will not work because of the following error:
    "Failed to load database information. Details: The database connector 'crdb_p2ssyb10.dll' could not be loaded"
    From previous experience we know that Sybase 15 is only supported via ODBC with Crystal Report 11.5, so we tried to change the datasource to ODBC, but when we do that we get the following error:
    The instruction at "0x0e864b11" referenced memory at "0x00000004". The memory could not be "read".
    Do we have any options at this point besides competely re-creating the reports?

    We are using CR 11.5 and trying to change the data source to ODBC.  I can create a new report and use the same stored procedures as a datasource via ODBC with no issues.  I only have an issue when trying to change the data source on these existing reports.

  • Application error The memory could not be read 0x00000014

    Hi everyone,
    I would like to know if any of you have come across this issue.
    I'm running an application built by me in a computer with LabVIEW Run-time 9 in which I display a PDF file using an ActiveX control:
     The target computer runs Adboe Reader 9.0.  Everything works perfect until the application is closed.  From time to time (nearly most of the times), I've got the next windows error:
    "Application Error:  The instruction at "0x0ffd609c" referenced memory at "0x00000014".  The memory could not be "read".  Click on OK to terminate the program".
    Trying to find out the reason, I found a couple of forums which claim that the reason is a bug in Adobe 9.0 (actually, I've tried running the application with Adobe Reader 8 and I cannot repeat the error).  Any of you have had this error before and found a solution?  Those links weren't about LabVIEW and I have no idea how to get around this issue.
    Any help is appreciate it.
    Thanks in advance.

  • Java.exe application error - the memory could not be read

    Hi all,
    I have some problems. I have been getting this error:
    The instruction at "0x03491c33" referenced memory at "0x034c1f77". The memory could not be "read".
    This error occurs when the disconnect function() is called.
    My code is as follows:
    JNIEXPORT void JNICALL Java_JFrame_disconnect (JNIEnv * env, jobject obj) {
    ::CoInitialize(NULL);
    HINSTANCE getprocDLL = LoadLibrary(TEXT("test.dll"));
    if (getprocDLL != NULL){
    typedef void (_cdecl*pICFUNC)(void);
    pICFUNC disconnect;
    FARPROC getProcessID = (FARPROC)GetProcAddress(HMODULE(getprocDLL),"Disconnect");
    disconnect = pICFUNC (getProcessID);
    disconnect() <---- error occurs when this function is called
    FreeLibrary(getprocDLL);
    ::CoUninitialize();
    Any idea what could be the possible problem with the code?
    Any help / suggestions would be greatly appreciated! Thanks in advance!
    Edited by: dolphlam on Sep 4, 2008 12:41 AM

    1. Check what value getProcessID has.
    2. Verify that the signature of the method that you are casting it to is correct.
    3. Can you call disconnect without actually connecting to something?
    4. Move the code out of JNI entirely. Create a C/C++ executable and verify that the code works there first.

  • Safari Application Error "The memory could not be read"

    First of all I would like to say I LOVE Safari (for Windows). Because of it and iTunes I have recently purchased a mac. Now the problem.
    For the past 2 weeks or so this has been happening. When I start up Safari I get an error message that says
    Safari.exe - Application Error
    The Instruction at "0x121f377b" referenced memory at "0x00000000". The memory could not be "read". Click OK to terminate the program.
    Now here is where its funny....Safari works, just every time i open it wether it a new window or at startup...this comes up. Does anyone know anyway to fix this and any useful tips for Safari/internet connections/macs?

    Actually, I spoke too soon as far as AVG Free anti-virus' link scanner. The next time I opened Pandora internet radio, I got the error again. Looks like it has something to do with adobe flash player for Safari. I removed flash player and i could not get the error. As soon as i re-install and run a website with flash, it gives me the error again until i restart my machine.

  • Itunes 7 Application error - the memory could not be "read"

    Hi guys.
    I just bought my first ipod and i upgrated itunes.
    but now itune just doesn't work!!!
    i getting this message:
    the instruction at "0x1000257a" referenced memory at "0x00000000". The memory could not be "read".
    I tried to uninstalled but it didn't help.
    I so frustrated, what sould i do...

    okay, the broken QT will be causing at least some of the itunes grief.
    let's try this first.
    head into your Add/Remove programs. uninstall your existing QuickTime.
    if Add/Remove won't let you uninstall QuickTime, download and install the Windows Installer CleanUp utility. then use it to clear any existing QuickTime installation configuration information from your PC:
    Description of the Windows Installer CleanUp Utility
    Next, we’ll manually remove leftover program files and folders.
    1. On the Start menu, click My Computer (or double-click My Computer on the Desktop).
    2. In My Computer, open Local Disk.
    3. Open Program Files.
    4. Right-click on the QuickTime folder and click Delete from the shortcut menu.
    5. Navigate to C:\Windows\system32\.
    6. Remove the files QuickTime.qts and QuicktimeVR.qtx.
    7. Restart your computer.
    next, we'll get a fresh copy of QuickTime into your PC by doing a repair install of itunes. (switch off antivirus and antispyware applications prior to the install.)
    go into Add/Remove and select itunes. click "Change" and then click "Repair".
    if the repair install goes through okay, restart the PC and try launching itunes again. does it launch properly now?

  • 8.6.1 install error "0x010e2754" memory could not be "read"

    I got this error when trying to install on my home machine.

    I think people used this disk at work already and I heard no complaints.
    I tried copying the entire contents of the DVD to my hard drive with the same results.
    I shut down virus checking at least once in these attempts.
    It fails in the very first step

    I confirmed others used this disk to instal. They had trouble with latter disks but at the first step.
    I tried to get MAX ... Software to expand to show you the software but got an error message.
    I'll try another re-boot but as far as software is concerned I had everything from LV 6.1 thru LV 8.5 on this machine. Had to remove LV 6.1 about the time of 8.0 since the PAL (program absrtaction layer) for LV 6.1 was goobling up CPU. So the answer to "what software" is everything.
    So what do i do to get 8.6 onto my machine?

  • Using LabVIEW 6.0.1 in Win2K, I get the Application Error: The instruction at "0x004be060" referenced memory at "0x00000001". The memory could not be "read".

    I have several VIs that use the same typedef. This "super" typedef consists of of a cluster containing 6 arrays. Each array has elements that are themselves typedefs. The array element typedefs consist of a cluster of strings, a string array, and yet another cluster typedef of instrument handles. The total number of unique typedefs is 13 (1 super, 1 as the array element in the 6 arrays, and 1 in each array element).
    When I make any changes to any of these typedefs and I try to open a VI that uses the "super" typedef, LabVIEW stops loading subVIs and crashes with the Application Error: Application Error: The inst
    ruction at "0x004be060" referenced memory at "0x00000001". The memory could not be "read". Also note that this VI contains several subVIs that use this "super" typedef for terminal inputs and outputs.
    What is causing this problem? My only solution to this is to rename the "super" typedef, open the VI, ignoring the load of the "super" typedef, and once the VI opens (with a broken arrow) relinking the VI to the typdef after renaming the typedef back to the original name. This becomes quite painful when you have to do this for each and every VI that uses this typedef on every revision of the typedef.

    You might want to first install the 6.0.2 patch before digging too far into this. You can download it from the ftp site:
    ftp://ftp.ni.com/support/labview/windows/updates/6.0.2/
    If the problem remains, then it is likely related to a few known issues with strict type defs. Unfortunately, there is not much that can be done about it at the present time. You might try having the *.ctl file open in the editor when you open the VIs to see if that helps.
