Flash Pro CS5 crashes opening large-ish files

When I try to open any FLAs greater than 50Meg or so, I get "Could not open one or more scenes probably beacuse of low memory" dialog box. This dialog appears several times, then Flash crashes.The system has 4G total physical memory, and plenty (2 Gig+) of physical memory is free and available when the crash occurs.
The same files can be opened on a Mac running CS5. The files were originally CS4, but I tried using the Mac to save them in CS5 format, and the CS5 files also consistenyly fail to open.
I running a pretty fresh install of Windows 7 64 on a Dell Studio 1645 with an i7 Q820 processor with 4G RAM and oodles of free disk space. Flash Pro is part of a new install of Web Premium CS5. I have installed the latest 11.0.2 patch. The crash details are

See to it that you regularly update the debug version of the flash player (it won`t automatically update with the regular one)

Save flash pro CS5 file created in windows to a mac os file

I created a flash banner with flash pro CS5 using windows 7. Can I save the file so my client can open it with a Mac OS?

Yes, the .fla file can be opened on either platform. Don't forget to include any external files that you may have used, and fonts that you have embedded into the fla.

Can't Open Flash Pro CS5

I just installed the 30-day trial version of Adobe Flash Pro CS5 on my HP laptop (I'm using Windows XP Professional) and every time I try to open it it says that "Adobe Flash CS5 has encountered a problem and needs to close."
I need this for my job and I'm unsure as to why this is happening. Has anyone else encountered this problem? And if so, how did you go about fixing it?

I am facing the same problem. My OS is Win7 and Hardware is Dell Inspiron laptop.
I have installed CS5 Premium 30-day trial. All app work fine except Flash CS5. Can someone help?

Flash Pro CS5.5 "Debugger Failed to Launch"

I'm running Flash Pro CS5.5 on Win 7 Pro x64 with 8GB RAM. My .fla is HUGE (it's a game I'm working on) ~750mb. My exported .swfs are ~35mb.
I can open my project and test the movie one or two times (usually once) before I am unable to test the movie. I'll see the "Exporting SWF Movie" splash screen and when that closes, nothing happens.
If I try to debug CTR+SHFT+ENTER the movie, I see the "exporting SWF Movie" screen and then get an error statin that the debugger failed to launch.
I have a feelin that this is due to the Publish Cache. My machine is hovering around 4GB or RAM usage while rendering the movies. Flash Pro CS5.5 is 32Bit so maybe the debugger is crashing trying to access memory outside of it's allocation?
I have uninstalled CS5.5, run the Adobe cleaner and reinstalled and have the exact same problem.
Any ideas?

If you use timelines (ouch) you can get seamless video or audio loops. Although I imagine you may be doing some transforms on the sound and I myself would rather keep everything in code. But I have still to this day had very little luck with seamless looping via code-only. But the compression Flash does is no different at all than you batch compressing down all those audio files using Adobe Media Encoder.
It's not hard and will save you tons of memory. Just duplicate your full quality audio folder so you have them save. Make a MP3 preset in Adobe Media Encoder with your desired mp3 settings. Drag the folder you want to have better compressed versions and apply the preset to them. Bonus points if the folder is in the same location you initially imported from because you can just select all audio and hit update in flash and you're done. File size should drop drastically. Then while you have the audio still selected you can hit properties and tell them all NOT to compress on export so it'll use the compression you already did (in a cleaner way). Then your export time will drop significantly and your filesize will too. Your memory issue should be gone and flash should be stable.
Let me know if you want me to test exporting. I doubt I'll have an issue but unfortunately all that can tell you is either your Flash is acting up (8GB should be WAY more than enough), or you really somehow are running low on ram.

Can't launch or reinstall Flash Pro CS5 after Flash Pro CC installation

I'm on a newly installed hard drive with a fresh install of Mac OS X 10.7.5. I installed Flash Pro CS5 and it opened fine. Then I installed Flash Pro CC and now I cannot open the CS5 version. It says there is a configuration error and I need to uninstall and reinstall the application. So I tried reinstalling and I get a message that I must either cancel the installation or eject the disk image. I have tried all the workarounds suggested for bypassing Mac OS Gatekeeper and still no luck. An Adobe rep from another forum suggested I post this issue here to see if anyone has any suggestions. Here is what I have tried so far:
Control-click on the installer and choose open to run it.
Disabled Gatekeeper in Security and Privacy settings of System Preferences.
Disabled Gatekeeper manually in Terminal.
Tried to uninstall the original installation of Flash CS5, but it says the uninstaller file can't be found.
Ran the Adobe Cleaner tool to remove CS5 applications.
Ran the spctl -a command on the installer and it said CSSMERR_TP_CERT_REVOKED. Assuming this means the certificate has been revoked?
Any help is appreciated. Thanks!

Bernst did you also run the uninstaller located in the Applications/Utilities/Adobe Installers folder? This is meant to be ran prior to utilizing the CC Cleaner Tool. You can find more details at Use the CC Cleaner Tool to solve installation problems | CC, CS3-CS6 - http://helpx.adobe.com/creative-suite/kb/cs5-cleaner-tool-installation-problems.html.
Also what specific configuration error are you receiving?

Flash pro cs5.5 project panel librarypath different from fla librarypath

Hi,
I have a flash pro cs5.5 project which i can browse in the project panel. (Window -> Project to open panel)
I went to the settings dropdown in the panel -> project properties -> paths tab -> library tab
I added a path to a swc here.
However if i open the startup fla of the project
and go to File -> Actionscript settings -> library path
the previously added path is not there!
Why are these two paths different?
The startup fla needs to use some classes in the added swc.
I only added the swc to the library path from the project panel.
I was hoping the fla will compile and publish swf successfully!
This does not happen . So what good is this project panel -> library path settings for?
I need to use the project panel library path because i am opening this flash pro project in flash builder and any changes to build path done in flash builder only reflect in the library path in the project panel back in flash pro cs5.5
Any ideas ?
Thanks
Soham

the project panel is just a convenience panel for you to use to access your flash project's files without using a file browser. it has nothing to do with your publish settings.
if you don't see a great need to forego using your file browser, join the crowd. the project panel was an idea with no great benefit.
someone probably made a big to-do about it and got enough people to vote for the feature so adobe added the feature. and then found nobody cared so, it's not going to be in the next flash pro version.

Java VM error during iOS publish, Flash Pro CS5.5

When I try to build a "Hello World" iOS app for the iPhone using Flash Pro CS5.5 I get the following error:
Error creating files.
Error occurred during initialization of VM
Could not reserve enough space for object heap
Could not create the Java virtual machine.
Has any one else encountered an error like this and successfully fixed it? I've been trying to solve this for a long time, have reinstalled Flash CS5.5 and Java, but so far I'm still getting the same error. I've also tested building the app on another person's machine and there everything works fine. My OS is Windows 7.

I found a way to get things to compile by using adt from the command line, based on this post: http://forums.adobe.com/thread/867644?start=0&tstart=0
I didn't have to use any larger memory settings. Just like the example in the link, I'm using a .bat file to make the command easier to setup:
@echo=off
@set java_cmd="C:\Program Files\Java\jre6\bin\java.exe"
@set java_param=-Xmx128m -jar
@set adt_cmd="C:\Program Files (x86)\Adobe\Adobe Flash CS5.5\AIR2.6\lib\adt.jar"
@set target=ipa-test
@set cert=iOS_dev.p12
@set cert_pass=password
@set provisioning=my_iOS_device.mobileprovision
@set build_file=helloworld.ipa
@set desc_files=helloworld-app.xml
@set files=helloworld.swf AppIconsFolder
%java_cmd% %java_param% %adt_cmd% -package -target %target% -storetype pkcs12 -keystore %cert% -storepass %cert_pass% -provisioning-profile %provisioning% %build_file% %desc_files% %files%
pause
It takes awhile to compile (10 min) and uses a lot of memory (on average 300mb), but nonetheless is functional.
For others who might have this error, note that it was suggested to modify the settings in <InstallLocation>/Common/First Run/ActionScript 3.0/jvm.ini
Changing those settings didn't help me. My specific problem didn't involve a large .fla file since I was getting this error even for a simple 'helloworld' test app. Thanks though for everyone who made suggestions!

Need Help testing iOS app created in Flash Pro Cs5.5

I've followed several instructions on how to develop a simple iOS app. I've managed to go all the way through and Publish + create the .ipa. I'm able to then add the file to my iTunes library, but when I then try to add it to my iPod Touch (2nd Generation) I get the following error:
The app "XXXXXX" was not installed on the iPod "XXXXX's Ipod" because it is not compatible with this iPod.
I've even tried it with a simple "Hello World!" app but I get the same error.
I'm using Flash Pro Cs5.5 on a Windows PC.
Any suggestions?

I'm having the exact same problem with my iphone 3G. I tried publishing the exact same simple flash app to my iphone, which I already previously tested succesfully, after having downloaded flash 5.5, and now I get the following message (which, I believe, is identical to yours kinant87) :
"The app "Main" was not installed on the iPhone "Norgaard" because it is not compatible with this iPhone."
I was trying to make another small app, when I got this problem, which is why I went back to re-test the app I knew was working!
I've reinstalled all my apple certificates, and also tried using flash builder 4.5, with the same result.
I also have not jail broken my phone, and was starting to think perhaps the iPhone 3G was no longer supported?

Need help with languages issue in iOS app created in Flash Pro CS5.5

Hello all,
I'm using Flash Pro CS5.5 on a Mac running Snow Leopard to create an iOS app by publishing with 'AIR for iOS' from inside Flash Pro. Everything works great except after I submit my app to the Apple App Store and it is approved, the App Store listing claims that the app is available in a ton of different languages including English, German, Chinese, Italian, Spanish, etc. Since this app is a word game and all the words are in English, this is a pretty significant issue.
If I view the binary details for the app in iTunes Connect, it shows that localizations are active for all of the different languages. This information is read from the .ipa file that is submitted.
If I unzip the .ipa file, I can see that folders have been created for all of the localizations (i.e. en.lproj, es.lproj, fr.lproj, etc.). If I delete any of those folders, the .ipa will give me a 'resources modified' error at install.
I have also tried setting the plist attribute 'CFBundleLocalizations' to 'English' by editing the 'app.xml'. I have verified that the attribute has been changed correctly but it does not solve the issue. All of the localizations are still active.
Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Correct Answerby Curt Y on Jun 5, 2012 7:08 PM
Here is a registy fix for Win7 machines to the file association problem.
This from TinusHDCA user:
I installed Photoshop CS6, then found CS5 was still there. I thought, hey, I don't need CS5 anymore, so I uninstalled CS5. then I found out that Photoshop was no longer available in 'Open with' when right-clicking an image...
So I went into the Registry, HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\Applications\Photoshop.exe\shell\open\command, and changed the (Default) from "C:\Program Files\Adobe\Adobe Photoshop CS5 (64 Bit)\Photoshop.exe" "%1" to "C:\Program Files\Adobe\Adobe Photoshop CS6 (64 Bit)\Photoshop.exe" "%1" (so changed CS5 to CS6) - and now I see 'Adobe Photoshop CS6' in my 'Open with' list when right-clicking an image...

Flash Pro CS5.5+AS3 + iOS (iPhone) build specifically

To start with, I really need some simple, definative examples of building a Facebook app for the iPhone using Flash Pro CS5.5+AS3 + iOS (iPhone).
There are endless examples for nearly every platform on the planet - except this one, and in nearly every language except Flash Pro CS5.5+AS3 + iOS (iPhone).
This is just one I have found that has some very good descriptions - albeit using coding other than what I want - but there is a link at the bottom to a downloadable AS sample.
http://blog.yoz.sk/2010/05/facebook-graph-api-and-oauth-2-and-flash/
So in simple terms.
I'm using
Flash Pro CS5.5+AS3 + iOS (iPhone)
I have the
GRAPH 1_8_1.swc files ... and as near as I can figure, I use the mobile.swc version?
My problem is that I don't see a lot of development on the Adobe discussion forums specifically targeted at the iOS iPhone/iPod touch model
Does anyone know of good tutorials, samples, (please no videos - impossible to follow usually, and often very poorly done...)
I want to be able to Authorize a user for Facebook, and store the login in a "private var sharedObj:SharedObject;" setup, and the authorization is done in a StageWebView setup,
and after all is authorized, the webview closes, and the user then only has to tap a button, and a pre-formatted string is posted to their newsfeed, any time they press the Post to Facebook button, the updated string will be posted.
Simple really. I don't want lists of friends, photos images or even to be able to read the newsfeed - just post to it.
but ... I can't find a darn thing.
thanks
