Normally, that type of problem is caused by a corrupt file
cache, and
can be solved by following troubleshooting step 4 in the
following technote:
http://www.adobe.com/go/tn_19105
However, since it happened immediately after installation, it
sounds as
though there might have been a problem with the installation.
I can't
remember how installation of DW8 went on a Mac, but I think
you needed
to use an installation program, rather than simply dragging
DW into the
Applications folder. You certainly do with later Mac
versions.

  • Aperture help not working - getting JavaScript error message

    My Aperture 3 has been having a lot of strange issues lately, most, but not all of which have been cleared up by holding down command + option while starting up and going through all three of the choices there.
    One problem that remains is the inability to open the Help files. I keep getting the following message:
    “The Help Library requires JavaScript.
    If JavaScript is not enabled, you will not
    be able to view all the content.”
    Help works in all other applications, like Pages and Final Cut Pro. I don’t get JavaScript error messages in any other applications.
    I’ve already done an erase and restore from a Time Machine backup, and an archive and install. I reinstalled Aperture, although not by using the Terminal command suggested in the kbase article # HT3805.
    If I go the Terminal command route, will I lose all my projects, albums, and editing? What about Mobile Me galleries?
    I have a guest user on the computer, and when I log on to that user and open Aperture, the Help Library works fine. So, I know the problem is in my user account somewhere, but I don’t know how to address it. Any ideas?

    Welcome to the forums.
    The fact that you have access to java in another user suggests that it is a local setting or preference.
    In the applications folder/utilities there is an application Java Preferences, try resetting this and seeing if it works.
    If not, try deleting the java preferences file in your users folder
    systemHD/Users/user/Library/Preferences/com.apple.java.JavaPreferences.plist
    relaunch the app Java Preferences which creates a new preferences file for you, then try Aperture again.
    Let us know how this goes.

  • JavaScript Error Message using Angel Learning Software

    After upgrading to the latest version of FF I receive a JavaScript error message when attempting to send an email via the Angel Learning educational portal. All the other operations in Angel appear to function normally at this time. Does anyone have any ideas as to what may be the issue and it if will be resolved or can be bypassed?
    Thanks!

    Thank you. The JavaScript is enabled on my FF settings. The message I am receiving is:
    Script: http://angel.cascadia.edu/jscript/yahoo/utilities/utilities.js:9
    So, perhaps I confused jscript with JavaScript by error? Either way, the link you forwarded said not to confuse the two...
    "Please note that JavaScript is not Java and Jscript is not JavaScript!"
    So, I clicked on the link to JScript which says that it is the same language as JavaScript and has a different name due to trademark issues. I have IE on my computer but never use it. Would you recommend that I uninstall IE? Please let me know if you have any other suggestions.
    Thanks!

  • Updated to Firefox 35 and now I get a Javascript error message

    My Firefox updated to version 35 and now on every page I go I get this javascript error message: : 'navigator' getter called on an object that does not implement window interface. I'm not sure what is the source of the error. I have not installed any new extensions. I'm attaching an image so you can see the error message.

    Please report this to that add-ons support page.

  • Javascript error message upon opening gmail only in firefox

    I get a javascript error message (Error: embeds[i].attributes.getNamedItem("src") is null) upon opening gmail, but only only in firefox, not in safari. I had firefox ver. 16.0.2 installed, then downgraded to 15.0.1, but I still get the message. I have an old macbook pro, OS10.5.8 -- can't go any higher. How can I resolve this?
    Thank you.

    I checked Gmail with a Firefox 16 version and it still works.
    You can try these steps in case of issues with web pages:
    You can reload web page(s) and bypass the cache to refresh possibly outdated or corrupted files.
    *Hold down the Shift key and left-click the Reload button
    *Press "Ctrl + F5" or press "Ctrl + Shift + R" (Windows,Linux)
    *Press "Command + Shift + R" (Mac)
    Clear the cache and remove cookies only from websites that cause problems.
    "Clear the Cache":
    *Firefox > Preferences > Advanced > Network > Cached Web Content: "Clear Now"
    "Remove Cookies" from sites causing problems:
    *Firefox > Preferences > Privacy > "Use custom settings for history" > Cookies: "Show Cookies"
    Start Firefox in <u>[[Safe Mode|Safe Mode]]</u> to check if one of the extensions (Firefox/Tools > Add-ons > Extensions) or if hardware acceleration is causing the problem.
    *Switch to the DEFAULT theme: Firefox/Tools > Add-ons > Appearance
    *Do NOT click the Reset button on the Safe Mode start window

  • ASP VBScript producing Dreamweaver Javascript Error Messages

    Do almost anything in Dreamweaver CS4 with ASP VBScript seems to produce javascript error messages.  can be a blank page, and you try to create a recordset... error box, error box, and then the code gets inserted but is not in the server behaviors panel.  i'm usually working in php and have never had this problem, but it's quite annoying to work that way... being forced to hand code a lot simple because dreamweaver isn't working correctly.
    warning one:
    the following javascript error(s) occurred:
    warning two:
    while executing findServerbehaviors in Recordset.htm, a JavaScript error occurred
    deleted .dat file and restarted dreamweaver, per some discussions via google... did nothing.

    anyone know how to fix this issue with dreamweaver?

  • Creating Library Item results in series of JavaScript error messages?

    I've made two attempts to create library items from a page. One is a navigation bar and the other a side bar that has some lists and "non html code" in it.
    In both cases as the library item was created I rec'd a series of alerts warning of JavaScript errors.
    See attached images, which show just two of the error messages.
    It appears that the library item is then created but if I insert it into another document I get more JavaScript error messages.
    What do I do to avoid having this JavaScript problem?
    Thanks

  • JavaScript error message

    In the middle of using Dreamweaver 8 today, I received
    several error messages when trying to open and/or save a file:
    Message #1
    The following javascript error(s) occurred:
    At line 56 of File "C:\Program Files\Macromedia\Dreamweaver
    8\Configuration\Shared\Common\Scripts\dwscriptsExtData.js"
    ReferenceError: dwscripts is not defined.
    Message #2
    While executing onLoad in_onOpen.htm the following JavaScript
    error(s) occurred:
    In file ""_onOpen"":
    Reference Error: onOpen is not defined.
    Message #3
    The following translators were not loaded due to errors:
    ASP.htm: has configuration information that is invalid
    ColdFusion.htm: has configuration information that is invalid
    JSP.htm: has configuration information that is invalid
    PHP_MySQL.htm: has configuration information that is invalid
    XSLT.htm: has configuration information that is invalid
    XSLTransform.htm: has configuration information that is
    invalid
    Message #1 and #2 show up two times when trying to open a
    file. Message #3 and then Messages #1 and 2 show when trying to
    close a file after changes (it asks first "Save changes..." . . .
    if I click on yes, then the error messages occur, but when they are
    dismissed by clicking on OK, the file seems to be saved, because
    the corrected file is uploaded when using FTP. If I try to save the
    changed file by using File>Save As... nothing will happen.
    I used the Remove Program function in Control Panel, and then
    re-installed Dreamweaver 8 using my Studio 8 CD#1 and following the
    Wizard prompts. The files still show in the "local sites: list and
    I can open the files (albeit with the error messages above) and the
    changed/edited files are still saved and FTP'd to my server. So
    from the end-user view, all is OK. But... this is different this
    afternoon from how it was working this morning.
    Can anyone suggest how I should proceed to make it work
    without the error messages?
    TIA --
    Joyce

    Have a read of this article:
    http://www.macromedia.com/cfusion/knowledgebase/index.cfm?id=tn_19105
    and if that doesn't help you can try this:
    Quit DW.
    Find this folder -
    C:\Documents and Settings\<username>\Application
    Data\Macromedia\Dreamweaver
    8\Configuration\WinFileCache-*.dat
    (these folders are normally hidden - you may have to use
    Explorer > Tools >
    Folder Options to unhide them)
    Delete it. Restart DW and hopefully you're fixed.

  • Javascript error message loading dreamweaver mx

    this may be two different questions but here goes:
    -- i downloaded the interakt kollection a while back and just
    got time to use it. by now i noticed that a newer version was
    available so i downloaded it. but it crashed my machine trying to
    update. and an error message now comes up about a javascript error
    trying to load one of the interakt files. i put the system back 24
    hours but the same error comes up. i click okay and dreamweaver mx
    continues, but what does it mean?
    -- i'm just starting php programming and perform the simplest
    function, saving a .php site in apache2\htdocs and a file within
    the site. but when i try to run the php from the livedata view, i
    get a http 404 message about the doc not found. no wonder: the doc
    is not the one i saved, but has a longer file name. tried this a
    couple of times with different file names and the same thing
    happens. suggestions please.
    thanks,
    michael

    You may need to uninstall and then reinstall DW &
    Interakt. The issue that
    you are probably running into is that Interakt changed some
    of the DW files
    which worked until the DW 8.02 update came out, and rewrote
    those files. The
    Interakt updater probably relies on finding the updated DW
    files.
    When you preview a file DW creates a temporary version of it,
    and runs that,
    and then deletes it. You can not reference these temporary
    versions in any
    other way.

  • Javascript error message: Error: TypeError: netscape.security. PrivilegeManager is undefined.

    Support for enablePrivilege has been removed in Firefox (Bug 546848),

    If a web page (or local html page) is using this then they will have to use

    Where is it possible to find an exension of this kind (if it exists)?

    This issue can be caused by an extension that isn't working properly.

  • Error Message when starting up Dreamweaver

    So the other day, my Dreamweaver 8 started acting up. When
    opened, I got a Javascript error message on my dwscriptsExtData.js
    file. Basically the only thing I noticed was that I wasn't able to
    paste anything on dreamweaver, and several of the button titles
    where "unavailable".
    I uninstalled, then reinstalled the program, It worked for a
    few hours, then the same messaged popped up again, along with one
    saying the Date.htm and ASP.htm files were missing. I get these
    anytime I click any menu item.
    This morning, I did another reinstall. I also tried to
    updating my copy of Dreamweaver, but still no luck. I can still use
    it, but not being able to paste and constant error message popups
    are a pain.
    Any suggestions?

    See if this works:
    Quit DW.
    Find this folder -
    C:\Documents and Settings\<username>\Application
    Data\Macromedia\Dreamweaver
    8\Configuration\SiteCache\<sitename>.dws
    (these folders are normally hidden - you may have to use
    Explorer > Tools >
    Folder Options to unhide them)
    and delete it.
    Restart DW. Does that work?
