Flash Builder 4.0.1 install resets workspace and all preferences

I've just applied the 4.0.1 update, and loading up FB for the first time shows the default workspace. I'd made a lot of customisations to where panels were, what SDK's were used, what projects were present in the Package Explorer - all of which are now gone.
Why would an update reset everything back to the state the software was in the first time I ran it? Is there any way for me to restore the settings I had prior to the update?

Hi,
Sorry that your update experience wasn't smoother.
There were a lot of tests run to cover that sort of scenario, so I'm surprised we didn't catch it prior to release. Before the update, were you using the default workspace name/location, or had you switched to an alternate workspace name?
If you were using a custom workspace name, then the solution to recovering your preferences would be to switch back to that alternate workspace again. A lot of the preferences are stored in the workspace, so if the updater switched you back to the default workspace name, that could explain the differences (I hope).

  • Deletion of Flash Builder 4.5 when installing Flash Builder 4.5 for PHP

    There is a very serious error with the Flash Builder 4.5 for PHP installer (from http://static.zend.com/topics/Flash-Builder-for-PHP-4.5.0-Release-Notes.txt ):
    If Flash Builder 4.5 (not PHP) is already installed on the machine, and the
      product (Flash Builder for PHP 4.5) is then installed in a different location,
      the user gets the "FB is installed" dialog.
      After clicking OK, the installation rolls back and removes both Flash Builder
      and Flash Builder for PHP.
    My questions:
    Can Flash Builder 4.5 for PHP be installed in the same location without deleting Flash Builder 4.5? If so, please define "location."
    Is there a workaround for installing both flavors of Flash Builder 4.5 and avoiding the deletion issue described above?
    Can a single do-it-all version of Flash Builder 4.5 be installed that combines the SDKs and features of both flavors of the Flash Builder 4.5 product?

    Hi Mike,
    Could you please send the following log files so we identify the exact problem and hopefully help you quickly:

  • Adobe Flash Builder 4 licence is for one desktop and one laptop, only one at a time run or

    After installing Adobe Flash Builder 4 needed install AIR? Adobe Flex 4 SDK IS ALREADY INCLUDED?
    Adobe Flash Builder 4 licence is for one desktop and one laptop, only one at a time run or...?

    hi,
    Flashbuilder has the ability to create and run Air content from the IDE, to actually usean Air App outside of the IDE you need to install Air.
    Flashbuilder install includes 2 sdks, the 3.5 sdk for 'backward' compatibility with Flexbuilder and for targeting flashplayer 9, the 4.x SDK for Flashbuilder and  targetting flashplayer 10.0 and above.
    As far as fair use is concerned Adobe have had fair use software licensing for a while, single user 2 devices is not a problem, what is not clear is if you can use the software on both devices at the same time.

  • I just installed itunes 10 and all it does when i open it is show me the software agreement, and if I click "accept" or "decline" it closes and does nothing else. It does the same thing when i try to play music on it. (By the way, I have Windows XP SP3.)

    I just installed iTunes 10 and all it does when I open it up is show me the software license agreement, and if I click either "accept" or "decline" it closes up and does nothing else. It does the same thing when I try to play mp3 files, just opens up the license agreement and nothing else. It also doesn't recognise my iPod touch when I plug it in, thinks it's a digital camera. Please help! (By the way, I have Windows XP SP3.)

  • I have just installed iPhoto 11 and all of photos on my iphone have now all disappeared and ended up in my photo stream and the library in iphoto does not display all my pictures?? Can anyone help?

    I have just installed iPhoto 11 and all of photos on my iphone have now all disappeared and ended up in my photo stream and the library in iphoto does not display all my pictures?? Can anyone help?

    And I cant work out why all of my pictures are not diplaying in iphoto?
    Is this iPhoto on your Mac?  Are you referring to the photos that were in your iPhoto LIbrary prior to the upgrade to iPhoto 11?  If so then apply the two fixes below in order as needed:
    Fix #1
    1 - launch iPhoto with the Command+Option keys held down and rebuild the library.
    2 - run Option #4 to rebuild the database.
    Fix #2
    Using iPhoto Library Manager  to Rebuild Your iPhoto Library
    1 - download iPhoto Library Manager and launch.
    2 - click on the Add Library button and select the library you want to add in the selection window..
    3 - Now that the library is listed in the left hand pane of iPLM, click on your library and go to the Library ➙ Rebuild Library menu option.
    4 - In the next  window name the new library and select the location you want it to be placed.
    5 - Click on the Create button.
    Note: This creates a new library based on the LIbraryData.xml file in the library and will recover Events, Albums, keywords, titles and comments.  However, books, calendars, cards and slideshows will be lost. The original library will be left untouched for further attempts at fixing the problem or in case the rebuilt library is not satisfactory.
    If that's not what you're referring to then you should describe what is happening in more detail. Remember we can't see your Mac or your iPhone so need detailed and accurate descriptions of what you're experiencing.
    Also we need infomartion like do you have an iCloud account and are you logged into it on all of your devices, iPhoto and Mac? do you have Photo Stream enabled on both.

  • Flash Builder 4.7 Silent Install

    Hi We have bought a site licence for CS6 but we cannot get Flash Builder 4.5 to work so we have a licence for Flash Builder 4.7 so I have downloaded that.
    Please can someone tell me how to do a silent install of Flash Builder 4.7 or how to package it up using the Adobe Aplication Manager
    Please advise
    regards
    Simon

    my hunch is that it is a misleading error message.  the download manager fails every time near the end saying 'content invalid' and provides a link to download directly.  when i download via this link, the download always hangs indefinitely at the end unless i pause and resume... so perhaps the file is corrupt.
    i have tried the 64 bit and non-64 bit versions.  the non-64 bit version of the installer downloaded directly refuses to run at all.

  • When will Adobe Flash Builder 4.6 support iOS 5.1 and the retina display?

    I have installed Adobe Flash Builder 4.6 along with the Adobe AIR 3.3 SDK and am understanding that there isn't support for iOS 5.1 nor the Retina display devices, is this correct?  If so, when will this be available?  If not, what is a good workaround?
    Thanks,
    N.M.

    note sure if I'm much help other than to CONFIRM it is working for me by using the sdk WITHOUT the compiler. Check out adobe's little note: "Note : Flex users will need to download the original AIR SDK without the new compiler."
    I am using FB 4.7 with AIR 3.6 and seems to compile correctly for iOS.
    Maybe try reinstalling flash builder?
    I honestly don't know if the JRE has anything to do with it... I'm using 1.7 ....to see what JRE you're using, open the Java Control Panel (I right click my java orange icon and hit properties), select the Java tab, then hit "View..."

  • Flash player does not properly install on Firefox and Opera.

    Requirement for flash player just randomly started popping up on Firefox and Opera. I used the adobe uninstaller to uninstall flash player, reset computer then install again, but the installer finishes then when the web browser pops up to confirm in says:
    Adobe Flash Player could not be installed.
    You can troubleshoot your installation with the following resources:
    Troubleshooting Windows Installation
    Flash Player Help and Support
    Shockwave flash isn't installed in plugins but videos do load. On this "Flash Player Help" the animation does not load but videos on youtube does load and work.
    Does anyone know a solution for this?
    Thanks
    Joseph Park

    Hi Joface333,
    Please do the following:
    Close all browsers and apps that may use Flash Player (e.g. instant messaging clients, Pandora and the like).
    Run the uninstaller posted at the bottom of the Download Adobe Flash Player 15 Beta for Desktops - Adobe Labs page
    Reboot the machine
    After logging back in, check the C:\Windows\System32\Macromed\Flash and C:\Windows\SysWow64\Macroemd\Flash directory.FlashInstall.log file should exist in both directories.  mms.cfg file should only exist in the 'syswow64' directory.  Depending on what other Adobe software, if any, you have installed there may be other CFG files and a FlashPlayerTrust directory.  If there are other Flash Player files listed, take a screen-shot and post them using the instructions previously provided.
    Run the installers posted to the bottom of this page, Installation problems | Flash Player | Windows
    If there are any errors, take a screen-shot of the error dialog and upload the screen-shot and the FlashInstall.log file from both 'system32' and 'syswow64' directories using the instructions previously provided.

  • My automatic adobe flash player installer tried to install google chrome and did not allow opt out

    my automatic Adobe Flash Player updated tried to install Google Chrome without giving me the opporltunity to opt out?

    I witnessed this myself two nights ago while testing an upgrade in Windows 7.
    It HAS been reported to development, but... like 99% of the people here, we (myself and the MVP user who reported it) are just Adobe users like you, so reporting it with screenshots was the best we can do.
    I use Chrome myself, but only for testing webpages I build, and I've never used their toolbar, because it's an open portal for malware... hence the report filed with DEV.
    All we can do now is cross our fingers and hope they have it worked out by the next update cycle.

  • Flash Builder 4.6  differences between debug version and apk release version

    I've been struggling for several days now.  I have a simple swf file that just says 'hello world' on a green background. It is written in Flash 8 actionscript 2. I've used the Flash Builder  actionscript mobile project and flex mobile project in both cases and  I can get it to download and display quite happily in the debug version on the desktop emulator and on my ASUS eee Pad Transformer Prime using a USB cable .  Thinking that all is ok I then 'export the release build'  and the result is a blank white screen on my tablet.
    I then did a simple Flex Project as per an adobe 'my first app' tutorial (hellow world!/Success!) and exported the release build with the same certificate I used before and it worked fine.
    So after all that my question is - what could be the reason that my tablet is quite able to run a debug version of my embedded swf file but not the apk release version of it?
    Any ideas?
    thanks

  • HP Officejet 6310xi won't print - keeps blinking "reset power" and all lights flashing.

    I have an HP Officejet 6310xi that won't print.  When you select print, the paper begins to feed then suddenly stops before any printing begins and all lights on the face of the printer begin blinking and the message "RESET POWER" blinks in the screen readout of the printer.  When I turn printer off and back on, the screen indicates a used color cartridge is inserted and I hit OK, then indicates used black cartridge is inserted, then I hit OK, then it says it needs to align cartridges, I hit OK.  After trying to align cartridges, it suddenly stops and goes back to all lights flashing and screen flashing "RESET POWER".   I can hit cancel during cartridge alignment and printer goes to normal ready position.  I can then print a test page.  But as soon as I try to print anything else, even the diagnostics page, it goes back to flashing all lights and "RESET POWER".  I did a semi reset (unplug, wait, plug in holding #6) and a full reset (with #9).  That did nothing except wipe out the date on the screen read out of the printer.   So I know the full reset executed correctly but it did not solve my problem.  Please HELP! I am reposting with email me selected - I'm new at this posting to forums...

  • Flash CS5 / CS5.5 crashes when importing images, and all of the time

    Hi.
    I started working on an animation file in Flash recently.  It was ok at first, but now it crashes all of the time.  It crashes almost 100% of the time when I try to import a sequence of jpegs, but it also seems to crash for no reason at all - when I click on a frame in the timeline, or when I move forward/back through frames on the timeline.
    This happened when I was using CS5, so I installed my upgrade copy of 5.5, and that didn't help.  I upgraded my computer from 32bit XP to 64bit Window7.  I'm now running a fresh install of CS5.5 on a fresh install of Windows 7.  It still crashes exactly the same.
    I got an error log when I installed the programs.  I don't know if it is related.  It looks like this:

    Hi Tobymare,
    5.1.1 is the highest iOS that an iPad 1 can run. If the iPad is crashing, try a reset (nothing will be lost): Hold down the Home and Power buttons at the same time and continue to hold them down until the Apple appears (up to 30 seconds). Once the Home screen redisplays, see if the crashing issue is resolved.
    Cheers,
