Fireworks element selection issue on mavericks

Hey all,
I've ran into multiple issues with the CC version of FW on OS X Mavericks for the past month (minimally). The biggest issue i'm having is with selecting layers. I am able to click and drag to select them, but simply clicking on them doesn't work. Also, importing images "cmd + r" doesn't add the image when selected without clicking and dragging to size it. Previously i was able to double click to add it in it's original size. There are a few other random issues, but those two are very consistent across all of my machines, and are really crippling my productivity. Is anyone experiencing this, or have any ideas for resolving it? I find it hard to believe i'm the only one with the problem since it's happening on all of my machines.
What i've tried so far:
- Completely removing all traces of FW and reinstalling it
- Restarting (obviously)
- Checking the console for errors that stand out.
There are a few console errors that might be related (but they mean nothing to me):
26/07/2014 13:15:45.837 WindowServer[86]: disable_update_timeout: UI updates were forcibly disabled by application "Adobe Fireworks CS6" for over 1.00 seconds. Server has re-enabled them.

26/07/2014 13:15:21.000 kernel[0]: process Adobe Fireworks [28710] caught causing excessive wakeups. EXC_RESOURCE supressed due to audio playback
26/07/2014 13:15:06.811 Adobe Fireworks CS6[28710]: The function `CGSFlushWindow' is obsolete and will be removed in an upcoming update. Unfortunately, this application, or a library it uses, is using this obsolete function, and is thereby contributing to an overall degradation of system performance. Please use `CGSFlushWindowContentRegion' instead.

Same issue here but with Premiere Pro.
Closing Spotify seems to work. Even if I have Quicktime open with an mp3 loaded up, it crashes. Also saving doesn't work. But that may be a separate issue.
This didn't happen before the new Mac Pro and Yosemite. Le sigh...

    When I select a clip of video and move to a different place in my time line, Premiere Elements 13, will not release the clip from the mouse.
    The clip follows my mouse movements and goes to other places in my time line.
    I try to delete these extra insertions, but the mouse will not release the clip.
    Action I’ve taken: I’ve re-installed Premiere Elements 13. Problem remains.
    This issue has consumed too much of my time and does not go away.  It ruins my video.
    Help please.
    Thanks

    I tried using the Guest Account on my Mac. In the Guest Account, Illustrator works perfect!
    Then I started wondering what processes (tools/tweaks) I run by default on my account. Turned out the problem was called by a little background tool called RightZoom. RightZoom let's the green 'zoom' button always maximize your current window.
    So thanks! Problem solved!

  • Updated elements 12.1 with Mavericks 10.9.2 STILL has SIGNIFICANT problems

    I have updated BOTH the Mac OS and Photoshop Elements to their latest levels.  I am using a Nikon D5100 running RAW + JPEG, and have approximately 25k photos.  Before the upgrade of Photoshop I would crash at random times.  Now I am experiencing freezing when I download new photos.  I always use a card reader, never the camera, to download the photos.  I am informed, by the software, that the photo downloader has stopped responding.  I can restart the process by forcing the downloader to close.  Then I freeze AGAIN when it appears the downloading has completed and NEF photos are starting to be processed.  At that point I have to force elements.  Upon restart the photos SEEM to all be there.  BUT the latest problem is a message that the index could not be updated. 
    As you can see I am VERY willing to try and get all this to work, but it is becoming increasingly frustrating.  The 12.1 update has most definitely made improvements.  BUT, there is A LOT to go!  I would LOVE to hear some constructive help.  At this point, how to revert back to Elements 11 would be very helpful.  Unless there is VERY SIGNIFICANT improvement Elements 12 is just not worth the effort.

    If PSE was installed before the Mavericks upgrade you need to delete your preferences. Details here - http://barbarabrundage.com/2013/10/28/photoshop-elements-and-os-x-mavericks/.

    hi there i have issue in mavericks i thing so because now in 80% the battery shows it has 3 hours and 5 minutes left only using safari and mail....is there any fix or update.....help appreciated....

    Is the MacBook/Air still covered under any AppleCare plan?
    If you are in the US or Canada, the Apple Store with Genius
    bar can have a look at it, and diagnose it for free; you'd have
    to set an appointment at a store nearest you, for them do do it.
    Not sure how old the unit is or how it was used, charged, or re-
    charged; but those are the kinds of little things that may affect
    battery life or subtract possible useable Cycles off its life.
    Some users of MB/Air models (and MB/Pro, etc) had noticed
    a loss of battery capacity after an upgrade to Mavericks. So
    that may be some kind of revision to how the battery is seen
    by the newer OS X. No idea if Mavericks uses more power.
    To see an expert or specialist about this issue, for advice, &
    or test/diagnose may be an idea. Could be it needs a new
    battery. How does the rest of the battery/power specs look?
    Perhaps the MacBook just wants to get out on the town...

  • Menu selection issues in Flash CS4 for Mac

    I'm having a few menu selection issues in Flash. It seems some fields are de-selecting automatically (and quickly). For instance:
    1) When I double-click a layer to change it's name, it highlights then immediately de-selects. I can only rename by right-clicking and bringing up the Properties dialog.
    2) Fields highlight briefly then immediately de-select in the Properties menu when using the Tab button to advance or cycle thru fields. I have to click on each field individually to enter dimensions/characters.
    Possibly related...
    On occasion, I'm having an issue in Photoshop where the tools are off by 30 pixels or so. Examples:
    - Paint brush affects an area approximately 30px to the right and down from the brush head.
    - Selection tool selects an area approximately 30px to the right and down from the arrow head.
    This only happens on occasion and can be fixed by restarting Photoshop. I have not had any luck fixing the problems experienced within Flash.
    I'm experiencing this on two different machines that have CS4 installed. My only guess is a conflict with a Logitech driver OR a Wacom driver, but I have uninstalled the software and unplugged the Logitech mouse and Wacom tablet to no avail.
    Long time Flash/Photoshop user.... never had a problem like this.
    Anyone else have these issues or know a fix?

    Hi there,
    This is a known issue, however we have not been able to reproduce it internally. The way to fix it (assuming it's the same problem) is to change your workspace (such as resetting to a default shipping layout, and then modifying from there), as it seems as though something about the workspace is causing the problem. It could be very specific to where its layed out on your monitor(s), some exact pixel size of a panel and/or grouping - and so on. However, we haven't been able to reproduce this internally yet - only reproed and fixed similar problems - so I cannot say for sure, however changing the workspace has fixed it for the other users I've talked to seeing this one.
    If you are able to share the following about one or both of your computers and send it to jdh (at) adobe, greatly appreciated:
    * workspace XML file from the Configuration directory (before changing the workspace!)
    * description monitor layout (ie: primary on left, secondary on right... or "one" )
    * monitor resolution(s)
    * screenshot(s) of your layout exhibiting the problem
    Thanks!

  • Datagrid select issue

    I am using flex builder 2.01 and have been using datagrids
    for a while now. I have recently ran into a weird situation where I
    have one datagrid out of three that just will not allow a manual
    selection. If I set the index to 0 for instance, the initial view
    of the datagrid shows the first item selected. If I go to select a
    different item, the first item becomes unselected and no other item
    can be selected. If I leave the initial state to be no item
    selected, I can never select an item. All other datagrids are
    working fine. I have tried to set selectable to true but that
    didn't help. This is really odd, any assistance would be greatly
    appreciated.

    Mmmm... Well the good news is I fixed it. The bad news is I
    have no clue why it fixed it. This particular datagrid is in a
    different tab in a tabnavigator panel. Attached is the expanded
    working code. On the line:
    <mx:Canvas label="Archived" width="100%" height="100%"
    id="ArchiveTab">
    I had a click="{GetPropertyArchive()}" to refresh the data on
    tab selection. This was old code that was made unnecessary at a
    later date but I did not remove the code. My guess is the datagrid
    assumed the characteristics of the parent tabnavigator and instead
    of ... wait that can't be right. If that was the case then changing
    the datasource would not have fixed the select issue because the
    'click' definition on the tabnavigator still existed. I would
    really like to understand why this mattered so I could avoid this
    issue in the future. Any ideas??

    Any fix for the PC based network printer communication issue with Mavericks?

    I just signed up for FIOS and am not experiencing your problem (had enough other ones instead).
    Go to mail preferences ~ click on a mail account ~ click on the advanced tab. The only settings that worked for me were: port 110 SSL OFF, authentication: Authenticated POP (APOP). If I remember correctly when I first set this up another window opened and I typed in my password and never had to do that again.
    Hope this helps.

  • Firework elements pngs

    Hello,
    I purchased most of these png firework elements sets in the
    past but would
    be very interested in knowing any others sites that would
    sell similar.
    http://www.webberize.com/web_design/resources/templates/catalogue/fireworks-elements/
    Please note they are not website templates but png images
    that have all the
    detail and info for me to slice and cut up and do what ever.
    I found these
    ones useful as regards the colours, and corner shapes, also
    the fact that I
    could cut the up and use only curtain parts in a website.
    I would be very grateful if any one here knows of another
    site that would
    sell the similar, please note I know may sites out there give
    away animated
    gives etc but that is not what I am after, I am looking more
    for the header,
    button etc that gets included in the images from the site
    above.
    thanks

    Hey twocans -
    Join Fwguru forum at
    http://www.fireworksguruforum.com
    - I've seen a few, but generally Fireworks users give this stuff
    away for Free.
    fireworkszone.com sells some commerically, also
    rockettheme.com has a ton of templates created in Fireworks, but is
    a subscription based service. Well worth it if you work with Joomla
    or CMS's in general.
    Also, just noticed these source PNGs was posted last week on
    the exchange:

  • LEAD Codec for MotionJPEG-Premiere Elements Playback Issues

    There are several reports online (here and elsewhere) recommending installing LEAD Codec for MotionJPEG-Premiere Elements Playback Issues. Most, if not all, of the feedback is that it works and is only $10 USA dollars.
    Today I went in search of that codec at LEAD Technologies and could not find a $10 LEAD Codec.
    http://www.leadtools.com/SDK/Multimedia/Multimedia-MCMP-MJPEG-codec.htm
    Instead, I found a bunch of kits priced at way over $100.00.
    From the chat service at that web site, I discovered that the LEAD codec is no longer sold separately. In order to get that codec, you would have to buy the Multimedia SDF Kit (priced $595.00).
    Any workaround suggestions
    OR
    pay the $595.00 to get the LEAD Codec
    OR
    go the file conversion route for the MotionJPEG?

    ATR,
    Great news!
    On the PrPro forum, it's been 100% for MainConcept, and 99% for Morgan. One user could not get the Morgan to work on his/her system, but that could well have been OE on that poster's part. Still, those are not bad odds, and the 'cost" of the Morgan is better...
    Just glad that it worked for you.
    Good luck,

  • HT6030 Sound output issue with Mavericks

    There is a sound output issue with Mavericks and Firewire800 Audio devices. I am using a MIO 2882 but now people are having issues with other devices as well. Is this something that will be addressed in an update? If not I will need to downgrade my OS.

    maybe the adapter went bad.....fast. try getting one thats made by sony. or apple. i have had bad luck with some cheap products i bought.
    or maybe thats the brand you have ad luck with. i remember when i use to get some quantom fireball drives, and they just died on me the next week. im down to two and keeping a good eye on them. especially fujitsu. the only ones i have GREAT LUCK with are Seagate and Western digitals drives.

  • MacBook Pro 17-inch issues with Mavericks

    I have just installed (twice) the new Mavericks on my MacBook Pro 17-Inch from late 2011. Sporting the 2.5 GHz Intel Core i7 with 4GB of 1333 MHz DDR3 RAM. Intel HD Graphics 3000 384 MB.
    All that being said, it's running a bit slow (seems to be a commin issue). But that's not why I'm posting. My question is a permissions issue. I have since run permissions fixes since installing, and yet, I'm being told, for example from iTunes, "The folder "iTunes" is on a locked disk or you do not have write permission for this folder." Then iTunes, expectedly, just shuts down. And for Photoshop CS5, "An unexpected and unrecoverable problem has occurred. Photoshop will now exit". InDesign opens, but so slowly, it's effectively useless. I go to quit out, and it hangs up trying to shut down. Illustrator is the same; opens slowly, hard to work with, seems to crash while shutting down. My first install, Safari wouldn't even launch. Now it seems to launch okay and function okay.
    So, anyone have any idea why my permissions seem to be borked?
    As an aside, before I upgraded, I did have problems with preferences being saved in Safari and LinoType font utility.
    Thanks for any input that might help me out. I have lots of freelance art to do, and right now, no machine to do it with.

    If you're having trouble making changes to files that are inside your home folder (represented by a house icon in the sidebar of a Finder window), or if you can't get changes to the settings of an application to stick, then please see below.
    Back up all data.
    This procedure will unlock all your user files (not system files) and reset their ownership and access-control lists to the default. If you've set special values for those attributes on any of your files, they will be reverted. In that case, either stop here, or be prepared to recreate the settings if necessary. Do so only after verifying that those settings didn't cause the problem. If none of this is meaningful to you, you don't need to worry about it.
    Step 1
    If you have more than one user, and the one in question is not an administrator, then go to Step 2.
    Triple-click anywhere in the following line on this page to select it:
    { sudo chflags -R nouchg,nouappnd ~ $TMPDIR..; sudo chown -R $UID:staff ~ $_; sudo chmod -R u+rwX ~ $_; chmod -R -N ~ $_; } 2>&-
    Copy the selected text to the Clipboard by pressing the key combination command-C.
    Launch the built-in Terminal application in any of the following ways:
    ☞ Enter the first few letters of its name into a Spotlight search. Select it in the results (it should be at the top.)
    ☞ In the Finder, select Go ▹ Utilities from the menu bar, or press the key combination shift-command-U. The application is in the folder that opens.
    ☞ Open LaunchPad. Click Utilities, then Terminal in the icon grid.
    Paste into the Terminal window by pressing command-V. I've tested these instructions only with the Safari web browser. If you use another browser, you may have to press the return key after pasting.
    You'll be prompted for your login password. Nothing will be displayed when you type it. You may get a one-time warning to be careful. If you don’t have a login password, you’ll need to set one before you can run the command. If you see a message that your username "is not in the sudoers file," then you're not logged in as an administrator.
    The command may take a few minutes to run, or perhaps longer if you have literally millions of files in your home folder. Wait for a new line ending in a dollar sign ($) to appear, then quit Terminal.
    Step 2 (optional)
    Take this step only if you have trouble with Step 1, if it frightens you, or if it doesn't solve the problem.
    Start up in Recovery mode. When the OS X Utilities screen appears, select
    Utilities ▹ Terminal
    from the menu bar. A Terminal window will open.
    In the Terminal window, type this:
    res
    Press the tab key. The partial command you typed will automatically be completed to this:
    resetpassword
    Press return. A Reset Password dialog will open. You’re not going to reset a password.
    In the dialog, select the startup volume ("Macintosh HD," unless you gave it a different name) if it's not already selected.
    Select your username from the menu labeled Select the user account if it's not already selected.
    Under Reset Home Directory Permissions and ACLs, click the Reset button.
    Select
     ▹ Restart
    from the menu bar.
