Help pls! CS4 freezing when editing

This issue has begun in the past couple weeks and I'm not sure why it's suddenly occurring:
Every time I try to edit a paragraph whose first line is indented to wrap around an anchored object (that is also text wrapped with a custom alignment to the text cap-height), the program freezes. It seems to be okay until I try to indent the line, or if the line is already indented, it is alright untilI make the anchored object have the custom alignment. I've tried copy/pasting the text I'm using into a non-rich-text editor and then copy/pasting it into InDesign, saving the file to inx or idml format, verifying and repairing preferences, reinstalling InDesign (which seemed to reset my preferences), building the file from scratch using the freshly installed InDesign as well as doing that with a new user account and I still run into problems. All fonts in my file have been verified to be without corruption and it does not seem to matter if the anchored object does not have any contents.
I'm not surewhat else I can do besides a clean wipe at this point so I'd be super grateful for a solution. Thanks!

Well.
You appear to have run Sample Process in Activity Monitor with the wrong process selected -- you selected Activity Monitor rather than InDesign. I guess I gave bad instructions. But in any case, since you provided the INDD file, I was able to replicate the problem.
Forcing a cash gives a stack trace like this:

I'm not quite sure what BNCore is -- oh! Bullets and Numbering (core).
You seem to have defined a bunch of styles about bullets, though I don't actually see you using the bullets and numbering feature in InDesign. But I would mess around with your bullet settings (do you know where they are being invoked?) and see if you can find the source of the problem.

CS4 freezes when editing audio.

Hello All,
I have a client that has a workstation that freezes when she edits audio in CS4. I have seen it happen and what it does is it keeps playing the audio but Adobe CS4 freezes until the audio is done playing or when she kills CS4. I have reinstalled Adobe CS4, talked to Adobe technical support, reloaded her workstation with Vista 64 bit, put in another hard drive for the page file, and ran through every troubleshooting document I could find on the forums and Adobes website. Her workstation is a Core2Quad 2.4GHz and 4GB of ram with Vista 64 bit.
This is an on-going issue that needs to be solved ASAP and any help would be appreciated from other users. I do not want to resort to calling Adobe technical support as I was not satisfied with their knowledge of their product.
Thank you,
Brian
Edit: Harm Millaard chime in if you have any suggestions. You seem to be very helpful on these forums. Also, you have a very impressive computer setup and props to you for putting it together.

While I feel that the Assets, or the Project, are probably the culprits here, you might want to look over this ARTICLE on "tuning up" one's NLE computer. Might be something useful in it - if not now, then for later.
Good luck,
Hunt

Do you have any capture cards in the computer? For example, Blackmagic, Aja, Matrox, CineForm, etc.
If so, it's software might be causing the problem. Go to "Programs And Features" in the Vista Control Panel to remove the software for the capture card. Restart the computer and then try again.
Did you install any plug-ins for Premiere?
If so, remove them and see if the problem goes away.
Also, where are you saving your projects? Try saving one to your Desktop and see if you still have the problem. If you don't, then it could be a problem with your save location.

What is the exact version and what’s your OS?
What does the crash report state?
Boilerplate-text:
Are Photoshop and OS fully updated and have you performed the usual trouble-shooting routines (trashing prefs by pressing command-alt-shift/ctrl-alt-shift while starting Photoshop until the appropriate dialog appears after making sure all customized presets like Actions, Patterns, Brushes etc. have been saved and making a note of the Preferences you’ve changed, 3rd party plug-ins deactivation, system maintenance, cleaning caches, font validation, etc.)

CS4 freezes when building Blu-Ray

Trying to build an ISO for a Blu-Ray project in Encore CS4 and whenever it transcodes the large file (6GB) it freezes when less than 1/4 of the way in. I have two files both exactly the same codec (H.264 1920x1080) and the first one is way smaller and happily transcodes, but the second one doesn't, but the file doesn't appear corrupt in anyway, it plays through fully on my system.
I'm currently trying to transcode through the program before building it but it's just frozen again.
Please help, I need this blu-ray asap.

CS4 Freezes When Deleting Files

I've had CS4 now for a few weeks and I'm finding that whenever I try to delete a .htm file, the program freezes. I've tried the idea of deleting that cache file in the configurations folder. I've even renamed my configuration folder so a new one would be rebuilt. Same thing with the preferences folder. Any ideas on why this is occurring?

I'm also getting frequent freezes when I try to open a folder in DW. I click on the little + sign and it just locks up. Very, very frustrating. I just upgrading from DW 8 to CS4 and right now, I'm instability like I never experienced in DW 8. Please help.

Adobe camera raw 6.6 freezes when editing

I have a pc, it freezes when switching from one photo to the next. This is a new occurrance and very annoying since I have to force close and start all over again. I process tons of action shots, and this is making it take forever. I have a newer computer with an excellent processor and lots of RAM. Like I said, it's a new development. Can anyone help?

In my case, Canon EOS 7D, on Windows 7, 64bit with all the latest updates. On an HP DV7 laptop with an Intel i5 and 8 gigs of ram.
Photoshop is CS5 64bit from the Web Premium package. I always shoot full res raw files in the adobe color space if that matters.
I also went back and tried with some older files from my EOS 40D and EOS 10D, same thing.
It always seems to be related to opening more than 10-12 files at a time in Camera Raw. It will lock up when going from one file to the next by clicking on them in the left hand panel of camera raw window. This is just doing normal editing operations, you don't have to double click or click real fast or anything special to get it to happen.
The only way to fix it is to kill the Photoshop process in the windows Task Manager process list. Then clear the Camera Raw cache before opening again or else camera raw will not read the file it locked up on previously.
This has been happening very regularly since I updated to camera raw 6.6.
Thanks,
Tom

Bridge CS4 freezes when I open a folder with avi files

Whenever I navigate to a folder with avi files, Bridge CS4 freezes. I have tried resetting my preferences, changing the file associations, but it still hangs. Both Windows and Bridge are set up to associate avi files with VLC Media Player. The files open and play just fine in VLC. I am running CS4 on a Win XP Pro machine. It used to not be a problem and I could play avi files in Bridge. I'm not sure when the problem started since I don't shoot a lot of video. Any ideas?

Thx for that im gonna try it....but is there a way to do it without using toolbar or cmd-c...? i mean using only the mouse?why does it have to highlight the file even though i click a bit next to it....?using icon view i can right click next to the folder and i wont have a problem but with list view that i prefer using it will highlight the whole row.....and i dont find free space to right click cause i got many files

CP5 Freezing when editing video over multiple slides

Captivate continuously freezes when I'm working with a video that I've spread over multiple slides.
This is a Windows 7 computer. I've cleared my cache incase that had something to do with that.
Any help would be apreciated.

Which version?
Some ideas: background music for the file, to stop on slides 1-2 and 21-23.
VO as slide auido on slides where wanted.
For slide 2: object audio which can play parallel with the VO (see http://blog.lilybiri.com/audio-objects-control-them)
For slide 21-23: object audio with object displayed for the rest of the project, and hidden on entering slide 24

CS4 Freezes when other video (flash/wmv) is played

I was doing a CS4 tutorial on Lynda.com and couldn't figure out why Premiere kept freezing on every command I did. Then I realized it worked perfectly as long as I wasn't playing the flash video for the tutorial. So I switched from the flash video to their wmv option. Same thing happened.
Why is Premiere freezing when I play a video outside the program? Is it really that sensitive? Sheesh

I have run the hardware test disc, there were no errors. If anyone has any ideas I would really appreiate hearing them.
