How to recreate Flash Professional CC preferences

I recently downloaded Flash Professional CC to a Windows 7 computer. It functions extremely poorly: most dialog boxes don't work and many of them cause the program to freeze, so it can only be closed with Task Manager.
I called Adobe Tech Support. They emailed me a this link:
Re-create preferences
However, that link only refers to Flash CS6 and older versions.
I have some related questions:
1 - Is there a version of that link that includes Flash CC?   If there is I can't find it by searching.
2 - I went ahead and tried one method the link gave for deleting preferences. It said to hold down CTL + ALT + SHIFT while launching Flash CC. Here's a quote from the link:
Re-create the preferences file
Note: You can skip the following steps if you do not want to save your old preferences. You can start the application while holding Ctrl+Alt+Shift to delete and reset the preferences to the default.
I tried to follow this advice this in 2 ways:
     A - I held down  CTL + ALT + SHIFT while clicking on the Flash CC icon in my status bar. The icon froze and nothing launched. I rebooted.
     B -  I held down  CTL + ALT + SHIFT while double-clicking on the Flash CC shortcut on my desktop. It caused this window to open; it looks like a generic Windows 7 properties window, and I don't see anyway to "delete and reset the preferences to the default" as Adobe instructs.
Does anyone know how to delete Flash CC preferences?

Actually this needs to be updated for CC 2014. The file you reference above isn't in this folder. Instead, I see a 2014 folder and, inside this folder there is a file called cloudsync. See below. This is what needs to be deleted to prevent the crashing.

  • FAQ: What information should I provide when asking a question on Flash Professional forums?

    When asking a question on the Flash Professional user-to-user forums, you can make it easier by proactively providing answers to the following questions:
    Have you installed the recent updates? (If not, you should. They fix a lot of problems.)
    Please give us more information about your Creative environment:
    What version of Flash Professional are you using? And, if applicable, include the minor version number (e.g., Flash Professional CS5.5 with the 10.5.1 update).
    What operating system? This should include specific minor version numbers, like "Mac OSX v10.6.8"---not just "Mac". Also, see this page to quickly check if your OS is supported for the version of Flash Professional you are using.
    Tell us about your computer hardware. Include CPU type and number of processor cores, amount of RAM installed, GPU, number of disk drives, and how any external drives are connected.
    If you are getting error message(s), what is the full text of the error message(s)?
    If you encountered a crash, please upload Flash Professional log files to any free file sharing sites and post a link. Depending on the OS you are using, you will find the crash logs at:
    Win: Program Files\Common files\Adobe\Installers or \Documents and Settings\<user>\Local Settings\ApplicationData\Adobe\AAMUpdater\1.0\
    Mac: /Library/Logs/Adobe/Installers or ~/ Library/ApplicationSupport/Adobe/AAMUpdater/1.0/
    Did you encounter the issue in spite of recreating Flash Professional preferences?
    What were you doing when the problem occurred?
    Has this ever worked before?
    What other software are you running on the system?
    Also, do check the Flash Professional FAQs list and also do a quick Flash Professional Community Help search to see if your question has been addressed already.
    Adding screenshots and FLAs to your discussions is highly useful and will help fetch an answer faster and easier.

    I second that. I would also suggest the list of things the user should at least supply is supplemented with the client mode; HI (High Interactivity) or SI (Standard Interactivity).

  • (How can we) Import Flash Professional .FLA file format?

    How can we import a Flash Professional .fla file format into Flash Catalyst? It would appear that we can't...at least not yet! I have added this as a feature request within the adobe labs site for Catalyst. Someone at Adobe suggested that I also explore the forums, so here we are. If you would also like to have this feature added, please let Adobe know by promoting the
    idea.
    Our use case is this: we have a large Flash file with a library of over one thousand skins and assets that were built in Flash with Adobe's Flex Skins Templates. These stateful, graphical skins were used within a custom theme by several Flex 3 projects.
    Now that we are looking to migrate to FlashBuilder 4, and start to use Spark components, we are trying to find a workflow that allows us to use Adobe tools and to reuse our existing vector artwork. Since we have such a large number of assets, we are exploring various approaches, including the use of JSFL. So far we haven't found a good way to migrate from Flash-built skins for Flex 3 to Catalyst-built skins for FlashBuilder 4.

    Hi Ajay,
    See attached V 7.0 example...
    Hope it helps,

  • (How can we) Export FXG from Flash Professional using JSFL

    How can we export a selection from Flash Professional as .FXG using JSFL? It appears that this is not possible... just yet! I have added this as a feature request within the Adobe Labs site for Flash Professional. Someone at Adobe suggested that I also explore the forums, so here we are. If you would also like to have this feature added, please let Adobe know by promoting the idea.
    Our use case is this: we have a large Flash file with a library of over one thousand skins and assets that were built in Flash with Adobe's Flex Skins Templates. These stateful, graphical skins were used within a custom theme by several Flex 3 projects. Our ultimate goal is to bring these through Catalyst, maintaining their vectors, and use them to create Spark skins.
    We've got a JSFL that can export each linked library asset, as well as any frame-labeled 'state' within these clips. However, currently we are using exportPNG, which is not ideal as it flattens our vector art into raster images. We are about to try the exportSWF option, and see what Flash Catalyst does with this. Our early attemps with importing swf's haven't been too amazing.
    I'm starting to imagine some cross-product scripting in which we export symbols at a state-by-state level as .swf from Flash, then rebuild these onto layers in Illustrator, and THEN import these into Catalyst...yikes!
    Anyone have a better solution?

    Follow-up:
    Out of pure wishful thinking I decided I would just see what happened if I pretended 'exportFXG' was already a part of JSFL. Based on the signature of 'exportPNG', i tried the following lines:
      var success = fl.getDocumentDOM().exportFXG("file:///C:/mySymbol.fxg"); 
      fl.trace("success:"+success); // output: success:true 
    It worked! Fantastic! I'm not sure if exportFXG is considered still in "beta" and therefore intentionally excluded from the docs, or if it was just an oversight. But at least it gives us something to experiment with.

    Sorry but you will not get help here for that problem. This forum is about AIR Help, an online help format produced using AIR, it is not about AIR itself.

  • How to get the previous version of Flash professional?

    I need to install flash proffessional on 32 bit computer? How can I get the previous version as the Flash ProfessionalCC requires 64 bit?
    Many thanks for help.

    Hi Barbara,
    Flash Professional CS5.5 is a 32-bit application which can be installed on computers with either 32-bit or 64-bit operating systems.
    You can purchase this by Adobe's backward Licensing policy :
    " Adobe allows program members to order a current-version license but use a prior version. These members can contact Adobe Customer Service to request a serial number for the earlier version if they do not already have one. Prior-version software is available via ESD and can be purchased through standard resellers. The program member must follow all guidelines of the current-version EULA. "
    Please check the doc : http://www.adobe.com/volume-licensing/policies.html

  • How to add AIR 3 to Flash Professional CS5.0?

    Hi,
    Is there a way to add AIR 3 to Flash Professional CS5.0?
    Thanks!

    1) I found a page that explains how do add AIR 2.7 to CS5.0 and then upgrade to AIR 3:
    http://blog.prevail.co.nz/2011/06/21/overlaying-air2-7-in-flash-cs5/
    Problem: It requires AIR 2.7 SDK, but I can't find where to download it.
    2) Is there a good explanation on how to use the command line to do AIR 3 builds? A batch file would be even better
    PS. I hope Adobe will streamline integration between Flash Pro and the latest AIR versions. Isn't that what software updates are for?

  • How do I install Adobe Flash Professional on my E: Drive?

    I am trying to test out Adobe Flash Professional but I have no room in my C: Drive and I need to install it on my E: Drive, but I don't know how to change the file location.

    You can install part of the software on your E drive, but part needs to belong on the C drive. If you have no room on your C drive, then it is time to update your hardware. The software needs room on your C drive to operate. Assuming that you have a desktop a larger C: drive will make your life easier and your computer faster.
