Fireworks CS5.1 keeps hanging

Hi there, I'm working on a simple multi page in FW CS 5.1. Although FW has a tendency to be slow in general in this document (only 5 pages) FW keeps hanging on the most simple page. No images or fancy stuff, just a lot of text. When I want to do something simple like deleting a few lines of text, FW hangs. Could it be the text engine acting up? As the other pages have less text but more images but hardly give me problems.
System:
Macpro 2,1 8core 3.0/16 Gb
OS 10.6.8
FW 5.5
I als see FW producing additional files named like
0000000A
00000002
00000003
00000004
00000005
etc.
Any ideas?

This is a thread regarding Text tool problems in FW CS4 on Snow Leopard. Perhaps it's relevant?
http://forums.adobe.com/thread/493212

I was also curious: Where are the additional files you mentioned being created?

Hi,
My version of Photoshop CS5 crashes constantly. Can someone please go over this crash report and let me know what's going on? I did a fresh install of Photoshop, and it didn't help.

Well, something on your system is causing a hang that other people don't see.
So you'll need to isolate what that is.
Third party plugins could cause this.
Corrupt files on disk (including OS files) could cause it.
A bad driver could cause it.
In some circumstances, another application could cause it (if they patch the OS and modify event handling in some way).
But we don't have your system, so we don't know what else is installed and running.
So we can't give you much specific advice.

Premiere Pro CS5.5 keeps hanging (using looks)

For start, my PC specs (in case if relevant)
i7 2600k
Sabertooth p67
Win 7 x64
Samsung 830 SSD (Win7, Premiere pro, all other programs installed here)
3x 1TB HDDs for storage, scratch disks, etc..
GTX 570
32GB memory
I've been using Looks for most of my projects since begining of last year. The only hardware difference I made was SSD and additional 16GB of ram (32 in total now).
Premiere pro worked like a charm, exporting time was ok, render time was ok. But about 6 months ago (not exactly after the SSD and Ram upgrade...let's say a month later) it started to hang. While editing bigger projects (300+ clips, 30-40min long final edit, almost every clip using Looks plugin), the "sand clock" comes up, PPro isn't responding anymore and I have to wait (the program crashes in only about 5% and that happens if I do not wait for the "sand clock" to dissapear - it usually dissapears within 1-2 min).
Lately I'm having this problem with small, 1 minute long videos (final edit duration). It is quite annoying. Not using 3rd party plugins eliminates the problem but I am still curious why is this happening now and not from the start?
While the PPro hangs, task manager shows only about 30-45% of CPU is used and not even once more than 20GB of ram (26GB of ram are assigned for PPro), so it doesn't seem like it's hardware problem...
Any idea? Or should I just stop using Looks?
Tnx

Current version of MBL is 2.1.0.
Do you qualify for the update?
If so, you might try that.

Hanging indent, Adobe Fireworks CS5

Any idear how to do a "hanging indent" in Fireworks CS5 for a multi-line custom bulleted list.
Or if there is the "indent here" option in paragraph text for Fireworks CS5?
I can't believe it doesn't have such a simple type controls like this, but it's legacy code - so maybe brute force is the only way.
Thanks in advance for your help.
Cheers,
Jamie

Thanks for the quick reply Jim -
A single negative indent value doesn't quite give me enough control. At least not what I'm used to compared to the other Adobe apps. Uusually you spec a first line indent value and an indent value for the remaining lines in the paragraph. (ie 8, -8 pts, respectively)
OR an Indent-here command. (I know there's no such thing in HTML, but that's not my concern in designing protypes/mockups - and CSS does handle that quite plainly these days.)
I know the FireWorks isn't ideal application for typesetting, but considering it's been rev'd up several times since the MacroMedia acquisition, you'd think someone would have solved this basic integration issue by now. I doubt it's fixed in CS5.5 either...UGH.
Brute force typesetting here I come.

Fireworks CS5 unusable - mouse pointer keeps disappearing

Hi There,
I'm having an extremely frustrating time trying to use Fireworks CS5 as the mouse pointer keeps disappearing at random. Switching to another app and back to Fireworks doesn't fix things - restarting Fireworks or force quitting every 5 - 10 mins seems to be the only way to fix it.
Is anyone else experiencing this - or does anyone know how to fix it?
- MAC OS 10.5.8
- Fireworks CS5 11.0.0.484 (fresh Install this morning)
- Macbook Pro 17"
- 8GB Ram
Any help or suggestions would be welcome.
Cheers
Ben

Thanks Linda but I'm not using a wireless mouse - or a USB hub. The issue occurs if the mouse is plugged into the apple keyboard or directly into the Macbook Pro.
BTW, if I switch to other open apps or to the Finder the mouse appears - but disappears when switching back to Fireworks.
This is a really frustrating issue as I can't use CS5 - any other ideas?
Cheers

Why does Fireworks CS5 keep resizing images when I paste them?

I am having a problem in Fireworks CS5 where images that are copied and then pasted into a new document automatically re-size and become either very tiny or very large.
I have taken some screenshots to show this more clearly: (this website only allows me to upload images of 450 pixels across so they are not too clear)
Image 1: I have taken a large image and reduced its size to 100x100 pixels (highlighted in red).
Image 2: I have created a new document which is 100x100 pixels in size.
Image 3: I have copied the image from Image 1 (control + C) and then pasted it into Image 2 (control + V). The image was 100x100 and the new image was 100x100 yet when I paste the image it suddenly becomes 313x313 in size and is too large for the new image. Sometimes it becomes tiny when pasted and is too small for the document.
Can anyone help with this matter? Perhaps I am missing something obvious, but I have tried searching for solutions and tried a range of methods (different kinds of copy and paste etc), but nothing seems to help. Please let me know what I am missing!
Thank you for your help! As I said I am using Fireworks CS5. I am using Windows 7. If there is anything else you want to know just let me know.

I don't know what could be causing the copy/paste resizing issue, but here are a couple of ideas that may help with your workflow:
You can create a new document for animation by choosing File > Open..., selecting multiple images, and clicking the "Open as Animation" option. This will place each image file into its own State.
Consider using commands from the States panel fly-out menu—e.g., Duplicate State, Copy to States, etc.—to move objects from one state to another.
Other commands to copy objects within Fireworks include Edit > Duplicate and Edit > Clone. These do not involve the clipboard and may sidestep the resizing problem.
Sometimes with bitmaps, I like to convert them to symbols, as it allows me to resize the bitmap freely without losing the original resolution. (This might introduce extra steps, but it could allow you to correct the image size after it's been pasted incorrectly.)
It's a longshot, but I wonder if it would help to empty the clipboard contents once in a while, to clear out old data.

because I can not use my CS5 fireworks at all, no matter what I do to try to fix the problemfrom what I found on the forums,fireworks cs5 still will not load its keeps responding on the load with" A Internal Error has a Occurred" then all function of the fireworks programs stops and I have to use task manager to just shut it down. It was part of the cs5 web premium suite I bought this may for my company, all the other programs works fine, but the fireworks don't load
I have uninstalled and reinstalled the programs to no avail and I still keep getting this Internal error message. a few times it even blue screened my computer. I tried downloading and updating all my system drivers and everything is up to date.
I am running a win XP Pro MEDIA EDITION, with a Pen 4 - 2.6 Ghz with Hyper-Threading, 4 megs of ram, a Nvidia Geforce series 8 which is a 1 gig graphic card that has open GL3.0 and GPU 2.0 , so my system should run this programs with easy but it won’t even load.
forget about trying to contact adobe support about the problem evertime i call them they either hang up on me pass me to someone else until we are disconnected. there is no content in the support portal on this issue that i can find, This thread has been the only resources i have found on this issue and everything sugested on here has not workled.
I have no trouble with the fireworks version of CS4 and the 2004 mx. thankfully i can still use those programs for my work. but its very frustrating to pay so much for a programs that does not deliever.
so if anyone has a answer to this error message please contact me because i would love to use this new version of fireworks. but its nothing more than taking up disk space on my computer and usless to me at this point.

Fireworks CS5 crashes often due to buggy memory handling. Will there be a patch?

Fireworks CS5 has a major bug that causes a memory leak or memory "cap" where the application stops functioning once it has used approximately 1.5 GB of memory or so. (I read that 2GB was the cap, but I have never seen Fireworks make it to 2GB). I only have 10 undos set in Fireworks, so I know that's not the problem. I have searched high and low to resolve this, but it seems like Adobe just hasn't recognized this as a high priority.
I read other discussions about the same problem and I now believe that Adobe either doesn't read the forums or they don't care. I hope this is not the case because I truly love the product. But, for the record, I shouldn't have to:
- "Limit the number of undos to less than 100" (I have limited mine to 10, but after 6 months of trial and error I have found that to be irrelevant. The errors occur anyway). Don't encumber your users with such an archaic request. This is like a software bug from 1985.
- "Save, shut down, and restart Fireworks every hour or so". Are you kidding? I can't believe someone on the forums even suggested this. This isn't a solution to the Fireworks bug. This is a work around that does nothing to prevent the error from occuring. Sometimes the error occurs on the very first click after opening a file in Fireworks, after a full system restart. A 5MB file takes 3 minutes to open in Fireworks on my quad-core 3Ghz machine with 8GB of memory. I don't mind that, but I shouldn't have to do it every 30 to 60 minutes. Users shouldn't have to look for "workarounds" to keep a software application running without crashing, especially such an expensive application. I think Fireworks is worth every penny, but only if it runs without crashing.
Perhaps most importantly, I cannot - ever - open two 5MB files in Fireworks at one time. Which makes it extremely cumbersome to impossible to copy/paste content between two files. In fact, I am designing a web application in Fireworks, and I've had to split the app into approximately 15 different files because Fireworks can't handle files bigger than 6 or 7MB.
I had the same problem with CS4 on a different machine, so I know it's not a new issue. I have Fireworks installed on two PCs, both have quad core 3Ghz processors, one PC has 6GB of RAM, the other has 8GB. Once an hour I have to shut down what I'm working on and wait several minutes for Fireworks to reopen the file. Sometimes Fireworks just stops responding and won't let me save my work at all. And since there is no autosave in Fireworks, I probably lose work at least once a day.
Please, please, please address this... I love Fireworks, and I'd really like to keep using it.

I am using Fireworks CS5 in Windows 7 to sketch a large site, and it was taking an extremely long time to do anything and seemed to crash on me once or twice every hour. I saved every couple of minutes and could at least rely on my last save being able to be reloaded. However, a few days ago, I lost a lot of work when Fireworks crashed halfway through the save and destroyed the file. At the time, my most recent backup copy that I had on another drive was a day old, so that crash was not only frustrating but hazardous to my project deadlines (needless to say, I've since implemented a more aggressive backup policy). Anyway, I searched for answers and forums about the problem, and I'm disappointed that it seems that it's a common problem for a lot of folks that has been around for a very long time throughout multiple releases of the software. Memory and resources also seem to be a common factor in contributing to the crashes and are also a theme in the few solution responses that I was able to find. I hope that Adobe will respond with a once-and-for-all fix / a much more efficient and stable way for Fireworks to do its magic. I typically have had very positive things to say about Adobe software and was even the one who recommended the suite for my work, but especially as "well seasoned" and *expensive* as the software is, there is no excuse for any major, well-tested component of it by now to be crashing so consistenly and causing so many problems for so many people.
The solution to the crashing that seems to work for me so far - and I hope that it works for you as well: I doubled the size of my swap/paging file to ~4GB and set the maximum to double that (~8GB). Since I did that, Fireworks has only crashed once (only once.. as if that is even acceptable considering the short time since then). It still runs fairly slowly (granted, I'm working on a large project, so I can tolerate that more), but at least I can use it again.
Hope that helps! Best,

Folio creation: InDesign keeps hanging on Exporting Folio - Optimising links

Hi,
I have the problem since today that when trying to update and/or creating a new article, the folio creation keeps hanging at the point "Exporting folio... - Optimising links". OSX shows that InDesign is not responding.
After about 5-10 minutes, some of the articles will finish as others will not. Those who finished have an additional error: The upload has failed. Network failure.
- I have tried it in CS5.5, CS6 and CC
- I have tried updating my current article (what should be the case) and I have tried adding a new article
- I have tried creating a new folio
- I have tried a new offline folio
Always the same result. InDesign keeps hanging. The same files worked yesterday without problems.
Thanks for your help!

Phew, you're going from one format to another, hopping through techniques as if everything can be put in a magical media blender, and expect it to work. With these emerging new media, you have to keep the formats and techniques apart. You can't just design any visual and interactive idea, since all formats have different possibilities. And there's no easy conversion available. Yes, PDF seems a relatively 'old' trick, and SWF and HTML can do a lot, but compared to the flexibility we got used to after five centuries of messing around with paper, these new media are stubborn and largely detached from eachother. And folio's are just another branch on the wildly winding tree.
Like Bob says: familiarize yourself with the DPS/folio techniques and try to work out an (new) idea upon that basis. Of course, you can repurpose many of the elements and content you also used for other formats, but you do have to rework them.

Keeps hanging...., Keeps hanging....

When rendering in FCP, it keeps hanging. If I do it in small sections it seems fine, but if I leave it to render a substantial amount, I just come back and find the programme frozen and have to force quit. Any ideas? Thanks.

1GB of RAM is a not enough. Your system just doesn't have the resources.
To run well, FCP needs 4 GB for itself and the OS needs a few additional GB (6 GB min)
If you run Compressor, 1 GB/core is a good place to start (8 GB min)
edit - In the for what it's worth catagory ...
Even though FCP won't access more than 4 GB, having significantly more RAM in the system allows you to keep a number of other apps open and functioning simultaneously. I ran with 10 GB for years and added another 6 GB now that I'm running the CS5.5 suite - particularly AE . It all gets used in Snow Leopard with the system booted into 64bit mode.
Good luck,

Fireworks CS5 Privileges

I am trying to open Fireworks CS5 and I a getting the following error message.
"Your user privileges do not allow Fireworks to update your registry. Launch and Edit with Dreamweaver will not work properly unitl Fireworks is launched while using Administrative privileges."
The eventually Fireworks opens after I have clicked on "OK" in the error dialogue box. It takes about a dozen clicks on "OK" before it opens though.
Any help how to fix would be greatly appreciated.

Found the answer....
I to was frustrated when FireworksCS5 has a hang up- same thing happened when I upgraded from CS3 to CS4
Follow these simple steps and your problem will be fixed.
1. Press the START button.
2. In the "Start Search" type RUN.
3. Within RUN type regedit
4. Within regedit select HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT
5. Within HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT select Applications
6. Select shell, then open, then command.
7. A default file will be on the right side of the screen- double click on it and ensure that the path is correct.
Mine was:
"C:\Program Files (x86)\Adobe\Adobe Fireworks CS4\Fireworks.exe" "%1"
I changed to:
"C:\Program Files (x86)\Adobe\Adobe Fireworks CS5\Fireworks.exe" "%1"
You will now be able to make Fireworks CS5 your default program.

Fireworks CS5 rocks - Macs this is for you

I was using Fireworks software for long time, mostly testing into detail and Fireworks CS5 is top of the line product.
Mac people can now be happy it works excellent.
Of course there is always room for upgrades, and not be so much positive let me find at least 1 thing that could be better and then we could say Fireworks CS5 would be perfect.
Have for example panels, see Path panel that one looks perfect, but why other panels didn't follow that same design flow ? now thats a shame, when you know you can do it all to be great... but you don't do it
Please make panels to be more consistant to each other, look at the Path panel this is perfection seen so far.

At age 76 my mom would think of you as " a kid " since she is in her late 80's. A few years ago I helped her get started with using a computer ( she bought a pc .. the one that has a milk cow design on box -gateway ) . She had some issues with understanding some of the computer stuff ( filenames, folders, hard drive and ram and stuff like that ). I spent a lot of time with her explaining stuff and she almost always insisted on " writing down" what I was explaining. She thought she could refer to it later on and use it as a reference. This approach kept her active and having a good time with the computer ( mostly emails, some mystery games and word processing etc ).
The learning 'curve' of editing is pretty steep even with a good knowledge of computer " guts " .
My advice is to try and hook up with a person who can help you one on one. Person to person. That would maybe be the fastest way to deal with the editing and associated tech stuff... as it really is a lot of stuff involved. However, on a person to person level you would probably get everything down pat in a couple weeks... as long as you keep at it and make notes and approach it methodically.
I don't know where you live and what resources are near you but I would maybe look into speaking to people about helping on that level ...person to person... some would probably do it for free. I know some people here would help you till the cows come home as best they can, but because of the lag of time ( you ask question, you wait for answer ) it is not a fast process.
Some cities have film schools where they use premiere pro, avid, FCP, etc..and PC and MAC computers..and there are always students who know a lot willing to help people learn stuff... so that's another way to look at this ...do some research near home and see what's up at the local library, schools, etc... get some fast assistance one on one if you can. Would be faster.

Fireworks CS5 wont start up in lion (error in preferences folder)

Ok, after 10 days with out FW CS5 on my new Lion installment. I finally cracked some kind of bug where FW would freeze just after loading and the last text in the CS5 logo was tabs and then the processor would go up to around 81% and just freeze.
Apple and Adobe, both blame each other and none could give an answer, but to re-install everything, which i just had done. (Man the big dudes are lost sometimes!)
"My" problem turned, that I seemlessly had a corrupt file in my ~/Library/Preferences/
But i couldnt figure out which one it was.
I ran a Terminal plutil -s *.plist and no errors showed up.
The solution turned out to be:
Deleted the entire macromedia folder in the ~/Library/Preferences/ folder and now its working.
macromedia is the name of the old FW creators before Adobe took over.
So i am guessing there is some kind of error, but who can tell. I cant, adobe cant and apple cant.
Well hope this helps somebody!

Hi Folks!
Its because the macromedia folder is recreated each time flash is used somehow.
I made an Automator App that
1) Locates the ~/Library/Preferences/Macromedia
2) Moves the Macromedia Folder to the Trash
3) Runs Adobe Fireworks CS 4
So all I need to do is click this Automator App instead of the Fireworks App in my Dock, and then I am sure it will start.
(I Know that this is not a 100% cool in the end fix, but seems like Adobe are ignoring this error after several of attempts of direct action to tell them.)
Here is how to build your own automator app that does these three steps for you.
My finder is in danish, but I translated it in red text for you. Guess its easy to figure out:
Remember!!! If you are running Adobe Fireworks CS5 then choose that in step 3 instead :-)

Problem with copying and pasting text blocks in Fireworks CS5

Until recently when I copied and pasted a text block in Fireworks CS5, the block would retain all formatting applied to the copied text block, font, size, color, etc. Now, the pasted block reverts to some default setting. Oddly, if I copy multiple text blocks, the formatting is retained as expected, but not if I copy a single text block. I cannot find a preference that affects this, and I cannot figure out what might have changed. The current behaviour is definitely not desired, and is dramatically affecting my efficiency. Anyone experienced something similar or have any ideas how to correct this? Thanks.

Sure, thanks for replying so quickly. My workflow is simple. My problem is limited to copying and pasting within Fireworks. I typically select an entire block with the main selection arrow but I sometimes use this one too depending on the context. I usually just use the keyboard CTRL-C then CTRL-V to paste. Previously (and I have been using FW for years, it's always been the same) it would paste an identical text block directly over the top of the copied one, and it looked exactly the same, same font, same color, etc. Now, it pastes a new block in the center of the document and all the formatting has reverted to what I guess is the default, in this case Myriad Pro 12pt. The behavior is the same no matter which arrow I use to select the text block. I tried Edit>Copy and Edit>Paste, the effect was the same. The Duplicate function seems to work as desired, but I had never noticed or tried that command before reading your post. Using the keyboard to copy/paste is such an ingrained habit I'd much prefer to continue using it as I always have instead of trying to retrain myself. (I'm old, retraining is hard!)
(Selected block)
(pasted block)
Most often I copy and paste directly on the canvas, but occasionally will do it within the layers panel. Both now have the same undesired effect. I also tried creating a new document to see if it was a corruption in my current file, but the issue persisted to the new document as well.
Thanks.

Link problem with Fireworks CS5 - net::ERR_FILE_NOT_FOUND

Hi,
I'm having trouble with the hotspot links in Fireworks CS5. When I've added the links I want and click F12 to preview in Chrome, it loads the page without problems. But when I click on one of the links I get the following message:
Webpage cannot be found
There was no webpage at the adress: file:///C:/Users/Margiiie/AppData/Local/Temp/FWTemp/LinkedPage.htm
Error 6 (net::ERR_FILE_NOT_FOUND): Could not find file or catalogue.
(translated by me from Swedish to English, so it might not be 100% correctly translated).
A few days ago I used Revo Uninstaller Pro to remove some files from my computer, and I remember clicking "Remove temporary Internet Files" on all of the web browsers. This might have something to do with the problem, but I can't seem to able to recover the files I removed..
So, I really need som help here! Do you think that the removal of the temp files is the problem? What can I do about it?
Regards,
Margiiie

If you tried a) refreshing/reloading the page within the browser and b) emptying the contents of the FWTemp folder, and neither of those worked, then I'd take another look at the link itself. Assuming there are other links on the page you've created, compare the links within Fireworks: Are there any differences between them? Would it be possible to re-enter or re-establish the problem link's URL?
One thing I notice in your intial post is that "LinkedPage.htm" seems all by itself within the FWTemp folder, instead of being placed in a subfolder. When I generate a preview in FW, it places the contents in a folder (named with a random number), like this:
file:///Users/doug/Library/Application%20Support/Macromedia/Fireworks%208/FWTemp/24327926/ 00000002.htm
Generally, a website observes a folder hierarchy. I'd kind of expect "LinkedPage.htm" to be in the same folder as the "index.htm" or whatever your problem page is called.
I have to admit, I don't use Fireworks to create and preview web pages, so I'm not completely versed in how it works for a full website. I'm not 100% certain that previewing an individual page should result in a functional preview of an entire site. In other words, I'm not certain that links are supposed to work if they lead to another page within the same site (assuming you're previewing one page at a time). If this remains a problem, I'd suggest letting it go for now. Try File > Export instead, and make sure you're exporting all the pages in the site. If that works, then you're in good shape.
