Project file, and autosaves, hang when opening, even if media offline

Scary problem.
Earlier today I had an issue with Compressor, it repeated unexpectedly quit when trying to launch. So, I reinstalled it and ended up reinstalling from my FCS1 disc. I then realised I had reverted all my studio apps to their studio 1.0 versions, so then ran install from my FCS2 disc. This brought all apps back up to date and I succesfully ran software update.
All apps now launch without problems, except for one project file which hangs at 37% during the 'reading project' stage of opening it.
I'm pretty sure its not down to project file corruption as the same thing happens when I try and open any of the autosaves.
I've also taken all my media drives offline and tried but the same thing happens, but instead of hanging at 37% it hangs at 30%.
Final cut pro is semi-responsive when it hangs, menus open etc, but quit doesn't work and clicking cancel in the 'reading project' window doesn't work. Only way out is to force quit at this point.
I have also tried removing the /Users/<myaccount>/Library/Preferences/Final Cut Pro User Data folder but that makes no difference.
Are there any files that could be lurking from doing the round trip back to an older version? Not sure why this would only be effecting one project file though. Other recent projects open fine.
Ever-so slightly desperate now! Hopefully someone can help. Many thanks.

Do you know whether it was built in CS5?
The Premiere project it is linked to must be CS5. (I think this is what I found when using CS3, CS4, and CS5 projects with Encore CS5.)
Try opening the PR project in Premiere, then while open, open the Encore project.

  • Project Professional 2010 and pwa hangs when opening a linked project from PWA on Project Server 2010

    When I open a linked project in Project Professional 2010 from PWA, Project Professional 2010 hangs with the "Links Between Projects ..." dialog box open.  Unable to move or close the dialog box.  Unable to move or close Project Professional
    2010.  The PWA tab on internet explorere is frozen and unable to access although other tabs in IE are accessible.  End up having to reboot to close down project or force the process to end.  I suspect a hidden dialog box is the culprit maybe
    the scheduling conflict dialog box but am unable to access or switch and cannot confirm that there is another dialog box.
    Has anybody else experienced this problem?
    Thanks,
    Julie

    I have seen it hang when trying to open a project schedule even with no external links.
    Project 2013 Pro, Link to schedule is on a PWA on a Project 2007 server.
    If Project 2013 is open before clicking on the link, there is a long delay and the project schedule opens up in the web tab where the link was selected. If Project 2013 is not open, it just hangs and has to be shut down via the task manager.
    No idea why. I can create a link to the shared volume and that works OK. But if I actually try to open MS Project by clicking on the link to a .mpp file it never opens in MS Project.

  • File and image distortion when opened in Photoshop CS6

    I recently upgraded to a new computer and I am experienceing strange black bands blotches when opening many of my old photoshop files or even when opening common files types (jpg/png).  The problem doesnt occur with all file, some open just fine.  The distortion only appears within photoshop, when I try to save the file for display everything looks fine as long as I don’t open the saved file in photoshop. I feel like I’m missing something basic but I’ve used PS for years and never encountered this.
    All of my profile settings are exactly the same as they were on the old computer (basically default) so I don’t think there is a mismatch. 
    Using Adobe Creative Cloud if that helps.

    Drivers are fully updated. You did lead me to a solution though once I considered the video card might be the problem.  Apparently there is a bug between the current Catalyst driver and current version of Photoshop.
    In case anyone else experiences the problem here is a workaround.
    Go into Edit - Preferences - Performance, [Advanced Settings], and choose Drawing Mode: Basic.

  • 10g Project File and Dependency Ordering

    Hello,
    We have multiple developers working on the same application. We are all using JDeveloper 10g (build 1618) on Windows 2000 and we are using ClearCase.
    When are running into problems where JDeveloper wants to check out our main project file as soon as JDeveloper opens even though nothing should have changed. This happens when the developer was not the last one to check the file into ClearCase. When JDeveloper later saves the file it does not match the original file even thought the 2nd developer did not intentionally change anything. Sometimes JDeveloper also completely swaps the order of the dependencies when the save is done. This, of course, causes the project to not build and causes a lot of confusing and wasted time.
    What can we do to avoid this? Why doesn't JDeveloper save the project file the same for each developer?
    Thanks for your help,
    Mike

    Better do not checkin your JDev project (jpr) and workspace (jws) files in your version control system.
    here Best practice: team based development with JDeveloper and CVS? are some tips about this for CVS usage (should also fir for Clearcase).

  • Premiere Elements 11 hangs when opening projects

    I have a 64 bit HP ProBook 4740s with Premiere Elements 11 installed. I use my laptop 2 days a week and work from a desktop machine 3 days a week.
    The laptop installation of PE11 hangs when I try to open projects but when plugging external hard drive into desktop the project opens fine.
    All files are on the hard drive so it's not from missing files.
    If I create a new project PE11 runs fine I then create another new project and it hangs
    Really frustrated, even reinstalled - still same issues.

    Martin-Evans1
    We were pleased to learn that your problem was resolved by a just the Premiere Elements uninstall/reinstall
    as you wrote in your post 2 and repeated your result in post 4.
    As SG pointed out, the details of these issues are important to get at the core of the issues (whys) and expedite
    matters to get you moving forward with your projects.
    If the problem reoccurs, please get back to SG in this thread with details necessary to help you. In this instance we will not know if the problem was really with the install or rather with corruption of Premiere Elements settings file which could have been handled by deleting the Adobe Premiere Elements Prefs file or the whole folder in which it exists on the hard drive.
    Continued success.
    Thanks.

  • JDeveloper 11.1.2.3 hangs when opening project from JDeveloper 11.1.1.6

    Hello! I have a problem here which I can't solve. I also asked this question here: http://stackoverflow.com/questions/14365031/jdeveloper-11-1-2-3-hangs-when-opening-project-from-jdeveloper-11-1-1-6/14369211#14369211 . The whole story in short. I have a JavaEE client-server project in JDeveloper 11.1.1.6, where it works like a charm. Recently I had to upgrade JDeveloper version to the latest 11.1.2.3. The first problem was that the standard procedure of migrating project from the older version of JDeveloper to the newer one did not help: IDE was hanging forever all the time with no apparent (for me) reason, log file was silent about that. Then I tried another way: I just created the same project from the beginning and put there all necessary source files, libraries, set project properties etc. Still nothing, but now found the way to obtain a kind of error at least. I ran C:\Oracle\Middleware\jdeveloper\jdev\bin\jdev.exe from the command line and got the following (e.g. when I started running debug):
    Jan 16, 2013 8:52:09 PM oracle.ideimpl.runner.StarterFactoryDescriptionImpl logError

    But I don't know what could be the next step... Could anyone help me? Thanks in advance for your attention!

    Hi,
    not sure if you have a support contract or work for Oracle. In both cases the best option is to file a bug (service request)

  • "File path not found" when opening an Encore DVD project made 2 years ago

    Configuration:
    XP SP3, Encore DVD CS3 coming from Creative Suite.
    2Gb RAM, fast-enough-CPU, large-enough-harddisk (~70Gb space).
    The project, as I remember, should has been made with Encore DVD 2.0 2 years ago.
    The project file is placed on the C:\ with no invalid characters on the path or filename.
    The message prompts when I try to open the project file and after some loading(1 sec).
    I have been searching on the Internet for these problems on other people but there are no satisfactory solutions yet. Does anyone have the same issue?
    Thanks!

    ummm - I think this must be something like:

  • Dreamweaver CS6 hangs when opening file

    Starting recently Dreamweaver CS6 hangs for 30 seconds or more, sometimes saying not responding, when I open an HTML file. It appears to do this when the file contains links to external places. To test I created a file that contained nothing except the "new HTML file" basic headers, saved the file, then opened. This test file did not hang.
    I have tried the registry fix "ResolveRemoteURLToIPAddress FALSE" and deleting the personal configuration directory (with Dreamweaver closed). Neither of these solved the problem. Dreamweaver still hangs when opening a file.
    Any other ideas?
    Barry.

    Once the document opens, check the code for any protocol relative links (links that start with // rather than http://) and change them to http:// links, at least during development. It is a know issue to Adobe and will cause what you describe.
    If you don't have any protocol relative links, links to third party sites can cause issues from time to time if their servers are slow or have any kind of conflict with your network. Unless you absolutely can't, you may want to copy those external scripts to your local site and link to the local versions instead, again, during development.

  • Photoshop CS3 Hangs when opening files

    PS hangs when opening, duplicating images. The longer it's on the longer the wait. I'm talkin' 15 - 20 seconds. Deleted the prefs multiple times.

    Set your default printer to something local, that is actually hooked up.
    When Photoshop creates the document, it asks for the default printer information - and your printer driver is taking a nap while trying to connect to the printer.

    In Bridge when I R click on psd file and tell it to open in Photoshop it says can't find Photoshop.exe. Photoshop is running at the time. How do I teach it where Photshop.exe is?

    I have sort of the exact same problem. Extremely far away from user friendly
    I have an second issue as well: When I hook off all-day it comes up with an 8 hour event!
    And then if I put in a late start hour it pushes end time to next day due to the 8 hour event suggestion.
    All in all this gives a lot of changes just to enter an event.
    Command N
    I learnt from your input to use this fuction. At least that comes up with a one hour event as default.

  • Please help! I defragged my hard drive and now Illustrator CS6 is trying to open all of my complex Illustrator files with a "Text Import Options" box as if they are text files, and they are not opening!

    Please help! Illustrator CS6 started trying to open all of my complex.ai files with a "Text Import Options" box as if they were text files, and they are not opening!  Help!

    Hi Monika,
    I have spent the last two or three days trying to do what you suggested.  I uninstalled Adobe 6 from Windows.  Some files that CS6 placed on my system during installation remained, including fonts and .dll files.
    I had to abandon the Cleaner Tool you suggested because in one screen it allowed me to specify removing CS6 only, but on the following screen it only gave on option to remove ALL Adobe programs.  I could not do that because I didn't have the serial number handy for CS3 in case I want to reinstall it at some point.
    I tried to get technical help with the Cleaner Tool problem but no definitive help was available, so I reinstalled CS6 again without having the benefit of the Cleaner Tool.  I tried to get the serial number for CS3 so I could use the Cleaner Tool but spent 2 wasted hours in chat.  Even though I had a customer number, order number, order date, place of purchase, the email address used AND 16 digits of the serial number, in two hours the agent couldn't give me the serial number.  After two hours I had nothing but instructions to wait another 20 minutes for a case number.
    Illustrator CS6 is still trying to open some backups as Text and otherNone of the problems have been fixed.  I have tried to open/use the .ai files in CS6 installed on another system and am getting the same result, so I don't think the software was damaged by the cleaner.  The hard drive cleaner is well-known and I've run it many times without any problem to previous versions of Illustrator or any other programs.
    When I ordered, the sale rep promised good technical support and gave me an 800 number, but after I paid the $2000, I learned that the 800 number she gave me doesn't support CS6 and hangs up on me.  Adobe doesn't call it a current product even though they just sold it to me about 3 weeks ago.
    Would appreciate any help you experts can offer.  If I can't solve this, the last backup I can use was from June and I will have lost HUNDREDS of hours of work and assets that I cannot replace.
    Exhausted and still desperately in need of help...

  • Dreamweaver hangs when opening

    Running DW MX 2004, with updater 7.0.1 applied, on a Sony PC
    with Win XP, DW hangs when opening. I have waited as long as 10
    minutes to see it it every responds, and it doesn't.
    I have to CTRL-ALT-DEL and terminate the application. When
    re-opening, it opens normally.
    Not connected to a network, site files on local C drive.
    It seems to have started happening after applying the 7.0.1
    updater.
    Anyone have any solutions to this?

    Hi JillTW,
    DW 7 had some serious time lags. Search the
    Macromedia.Dreamweaver groups on
    Google's groups for slow DW and look for postings over a year
    old. The fixes
    they discuss may help solve your lockup problem.
    If you are working on a large site, 10 minutes might not be
    enough time for
    DW 7 to resolve cache issues. Look at your Task Manager to
    see if it is
    working (high cpu usage on Dreamweaver.exe) or not
    responding. Even if it is
    not responding a high CPU usuage may mean it is in progress
    and just
    ignoring the keyboard/mouse.
    Also, you might want to try to clear the site cache (or just
    check its
    size - a little one should not take long to process even if
    corupt) before
    starting DW. Adobe tells how to remove the cache here:
    http://www.adobe.com/cfusion/knowledgebase/index.cfm?id=5989f7f4
    Look for the cache in: C:\Documents and
    Settings\<user>\Application
    Data\Macromedia\Dreamweaver MX 2004\Configuration\SiteCache
    The file is named: {yoursitenamehere}.dws
    I suggest moving it to another folder for safe keeping until
    you know if
    this is the problem.
    Upgrading to DW8 is a major improvement in speed.
    Best of luck,
