Trace() crashes Flash CS3

Hi!
I have a nested for-next loop running in Flash AS3. The loop
is functioning correctly.
But, when I add any trace() inside the loop to track
variables, it crashes Flash CS3 (shuts down).
Has anyone else experienced this?
I am on Macintosh OSX. Flash seems to be crash-happy. I am
still in my 30-day trial period, and not even sure I'll buy it.
Seems to be quite buggy.
TIA

By the way heres is the Vista Error Log:

  • File keeps crashing Flash

    I hit save, and closed Flash. Went to work on it again, and
    it won't open. Can anyone else open this file? Is there any hope
    that I haven't lost all my work? I have a backup, but that won't
    open now either!
    Flash
    File (CS3)

    Keeps crashing Flash CS3 really don't know what to say? Maybe
    submit the file to Adobe Tech Support?

  • Crashed Flash -- how do i fix?

    Huge bonehead, tired mistake -- pasted a bunch'a text in the
    font picker menu, which crashed flash (cs3 on xp).
    I can start flash and open and create as files, but I can't
    open or create fla files.
    Is there any way to debug or fix? I really don't want to tell
    boss and tech guys

    What do you mean by paste text in the font picker menu? Would
    you please provide the steps you did to crash Flash so maybe I can
    find a way to reset things to normal? Are you on Mac or Win?

  • Flash CS3 hard crash on Debug Movie

    I've logged this bug but wanted to post it to the boards in
    case anyone else is having this same problem. It's been going on
    since I purchased Flash CS3 pro and has been really crippling my
    development workflow because I can only get the debugger to work
    maybe 1 in 4 times.
    I also tried reinstalling the latest Java hoping that might
    help as the bug referenced Java.
    ******BUG******
    Concise problem statement:
    Steps to reproduce bug:
    1. Debug Movie (Flash CS3 IDE) with licensed off-the-shelf
    Flash CS3 Pro.
    Notes: "About Flash" shows version as: 9.0
    C:\Program Files\Adobe\Adobe Flash CS3\Flash.exe properties
    shows version as 9.0.0.494
    http://www.adobe.com/support/flash/downloads.html
    "Adobe Flash Player Update for Flash CS3 Professional (9.0.2)"
    never seems to "take" no matter how many times I apply it and
    restart.
    Results: Immediate crash of Flash IDE
    And unable to re-open Flash IDE by clicking on an FLA file or
    Flash Shortcut, which give the message "Windows cannot find
    '[filename]' Make sure you typed the name correctly, and then try
    again. To search for a file, click the Start button, and then click
    Search." Must restart or logout in order to be able to open Flash
    again.
    Expected results:
    No crash, debugger should work.

  • Flash CS3 crashing after 20-30 minutes

    I've used Flash CS3 Web Premium for over two years without a problem.  Suddenly three weeks ago, it started crashing.  Through trial and error, I learned that it would run about 20-30 minutes before crashing.  It does not matter if I am working in  Flash, or if the program is just loaded and even minimized.  It always crashes after a few minutes.
    By crash, I mean the following.
    1)My computer locks up
    2)Elements on the flash screen may change colors, some being whited out completely.
    3)It may stay locked up, or it sometimes throws the following  error.  "Unknown software exception 0xe06d7363 occurred in application 0x7c812a6b".
    4)Flash then either ends or I must use Task Manager to force it to exit.
    Here is where it gets really bizarre.
    After the crash, none of my Adobe products will run.  They all say that the product (Fireworks, Photoshop, etc.) is not a valid .exe.
    Once I restart my computer, everything returns to normal. And I can use Flash again....for 20 to 30 minutes.
    I first tried repairing Flash which made no difference.
    I then uninstalled and reinstalled the entire CS3 suite.  The problem still exists.
    I'm thinking it is something bad in the Registry, is there a tool for completely removing all traces of CS3 from the Registry?
    I am looking for any and all advice.
    My Environment:
    Windows XP sp3
    2gig. Memory
    Itel Pentium 1.86gz processor
    Thank you in advance.

    How much space do you have left.
    It even hangs under safe boot.
    Not a good sign.  Any devices connected to your MBP while troubleshooting?
    I assume this is a hardware issue
    Run Apple Hardware Test.  
    If you are still under warranty and/or have AppleCare, call them.  Let them deal w/it.
    Out of warranty, take the MBP to your local AS or an AASP.  Diagnostic testing is FREE!!!

  • Flash CS3 / Adobe products: crashes or acting erraticly

    HI -
    I recently posted a thread conserning Flash CS3 deleting the
    contents or erroring out my built and working .fla's and .swf's
    apon opeing them to edit the .fla's.
    Suspected a virus - scanned etc etc.
    an Avast boot scan showed a corrupt cab archive avast error
    #42127 on a boot scan for a DW20.exe adn 4 or 5 other cab
    archives... thes are all related to Visual Basic C# - the DW20 .exe
    is for error reporting to MS about crashes. - thsi may be an "avast
    error" - but no viruses detected.
    I checking my WinXP error logs for a further clue they showed
    at the time of Flash CS3 crashing when trying to preview - it was
    due to FFMpeg.exe
    is this something that flash implements in importing a video
    file or perhaps a mpeg?
    When these crashes started, i was attempting to import a .wmv
    (- which btw - i thought past flash 8 there was no problems with -
    it now asks for Direct Show to be installed or Quicktime.?? Maybe
    someone can give an answer to this as well My understanding was
    that past Flash 8 - this was no longer nessasary - if this is true
    - any thoughts as to why CS3 is asking me to install these products
    to import or encode a wmv file?
    Back to topic: Since attempting to bring in the wmv video
    and/or mpeg audio and/or the flv i was experimentiing with
    - Flash not only crashes on me when attempting to open any
    .fla now.
    - but also destroys or corrupts all other .fla's and .swf's
    in the same file folder as the one i'm working on.
    My questiion is - since ffmeg is not a win exe - is this
    something that Flash implements in it's importing of a video or
    audio file? or at all.
    I have 12 error event crashes listed from Flash - all list
    the same:
    " faulty application ffmeg.exe
    - faulty module: ffmeg.exe
    - fault address 0x001be5e3
    - event id:1000
    anyone have knowledge on how to fix this or what may cause
    this -
    I mentioned the cab errors because i'mm not sure if one is
    related to the other - i had C# installed but removed it from the
    comp.
    as mentioned in my other post related to this - Photoshop
    Lightbox is also acting complety crazy as well - all adobe products
    are the ones seemly - that i know of or noticed thus far - the only
    products acting up.
    I need this issue fixed - as i have to finish my fla! lol
    I'd much rather be doing that than trouble shooting crashes
    from Flash or other Adobe products acting up.
    Any help would really be appriciated since this goes beyond
    my skills and knowledge.
    thanx

    Sure wish I had a quick fix, but it will take more info than
    what you have entered. I was having a lot of trouble also, until I
    did the 5 tasks listed below.
    1. Is there enough memory for Flash CS3? Setup tells you how
    much and if you have enough to install the program.
    2. Is there enough storage space for Flash CS3? Again, Setup
    tells you how much it needs and if ;you have enough to install the
    program.
    3. How many files do you have on your hard disk? The amount
    of directories and files on your hard disk matters a great deal
    when you are installing new programs. I usually go through my c:\
    directory and get rid of programs I don't use. I try to keep my
    folders and files at the lowest I can get away with.
    4. When was the last time you cleaned and defragged the
    registry?
    This matters a great deal too. If you have an overabundance
    of empty registry keys, etc. it can hang up your computer too. I
    use RegCure, it's a great program.
    5. When was the last time you did a defrag on C:\? Many
    people don't realize that just these 5 tasks can have a bad effect
    on your hard drive.
    It would be a great thing if you uninstall Flash CS3, do
    tasks 1-5 and then reinstall Flash CS3. Seems like a lot of work,
    but it is extremely important to keep your computer running at its
    best.
    hope this helps.

  • Project created in Flash CS3 & Flash CS5 crashes both Safari & Firefox

    I have a user with a brand new image including Snow Leopard 10.6.6 and the Adobe CS5.  When creating a project in Flash CS5 and then trying to view it in Safari & Firefox the plug-in crashes which then brings down the browser with it.  I went and installed Flash CS3 (as this is what he is used to using) and the problem still persists.
    Any ideas?

    anyone?

    Friday when several things are due and I cannot get it to open.
    ADOBE, this cannot be a problem isolated to just 2 people, what is
    the solution please?

  • Flash CS3 Crashes with Dual Monitors

    Flash CS3 crashes when I have the actions panel open on my
    secondary monitor and I close Flash. I have to actual move the
    action script panel to the primary monitor or close it completely.
    The same thing happens if I try to save my project space with the
    actions panel open.
    The other issue I have found is that when I open Flash up
    again, despite the fact that I have saved my work space profile,
    the pallets all appear on my primary monitor and not the secondary
    one. Didn't re amend this issue back in Flash 5 or 6?

    OK the problem isn't the DUAL Monitors, but rather having a
    custom workspace open while trying to close Flash. I have to change
    the workspace back to Default or it will not close at all. Any
    ideas.

  • Flash cs3 crashes when I try to publish

    Hello,

    If I save the same .fla in another folder, flash cs3 doesn't

    That description is about as wide open as it gets! ;)
    Troubleshooting
    is often like a detective story: the more clues one has to

    more confidently one can begin the chase.
    Well, my problem is that the cs3 starting to crash doesn't
    really have an explanation for me. but I will put details here.
    > I run vista business 32 bit
    > I didn't have problems until today,using flash cs3 for

    > month
    I don't have CS3 installed on Vista, so I'm afraid I can't
    provide any
    offhand suggestions. Since you haven't seen problems until
    today, the first
    thing that strikes me is: what happened with today's FLA that
    was different
    from your previous efforts? Did you import an unusual
    external asset (even
    if only unsual for you)? Maybe you imported a corrupted JPG
    or PNG. Maybe
    a bad font?
    I did nothing with the fla that started the crash, I imported
    some bitmaps and when trying to publish it, it crashed. Also, I
    created another fla, imported some random jpgs 2 I believe, tried
    to export it to the same folder, and cs3 crashed, saved the fla
    with another name garbage.fla No fonts were used
    > Hint:
    > If I save the same .fla in another folder, flash cs3

    Believe me, I'd be asking these "why" questions myself in
    your shoes.
    What you're describing doesn't sound like a well known issue,
    so my hunch is
    that something is awry with this particular FLA file --
    something not likely
    to be easily reproduced. Since you can publish when saving to
    another
    folder, I would run with that workaround for the time being.
    After saving
    to a different folder, try using File > Save and Compact,
    then move the FLA
    back to your original folder and try again. Or ... try File
    > Save As from
    the new folder, and save the copy into your original folder.
    In your duplicate post, you mentioned starting a thread of
    your own
    (this one) but not hearing any responses. Obviously, I can
    only speak for
    myself in this reply, but it may be that you didn't get
    responses because
    your question is on the vague side. It doesn't describe a
    common issue
    (like, for example, "Why can't I mask dynamic text?" [answer,
    "Make sure to
    embed your font outlines"]).
    When I read these forums, I tend to skim the subject lines
    looking for
    descriptive summaries. Many people post questions like "How
    did they do
    this?" or "Help!" or "Flash question" ... none of which
    describe meaningful
    topics. In my opinion, your subject line is useful, because
    it briefly
    summarizes your question. That's a good thing. When I read
    the actual body
    of your post, though, I quickly realized there wasn't enough
    (for me, at
    least) to give you a solid answer. In this case, I've tried
    to give you a
    few pointers anyway, but I'm only hazarding a few "try this"
    type
    suggestions.
    It may be that others who read your post felt equally unable
    to answer
    your questions with confidence -- at least, as stated.
    Well, I did some research on the internet and there is a
    quite more few people having the same problem, here is the other
    forum I found:
    cs3
    flash crash when publishing
    I am sorry that I didn't post any more specifications of what
    I was doing, but what I was doing was not something different or
    unusual of what I have been doing for the last week at least. I was
    just working with dw and flash together importing the .swf into an
    html and launching the html from dw.

  • Flash CS3 Crashes on New File

    Adobe's Flash CS3 installs fine with no problems, and the
    program runs (ie: It opens up without any visible problems.) But
    when I go to try and create a new file to begin a project the
    program crashes. The error window reads:
    Flash.exe Application Error -- The instruction at
    "0x042c6b6d" referenced memory at "0x0000000d". The memory could
    not be "read".
    I've tried uninstalling the application and reinstalling it,
    but that didn't help either. I'm quite stumped and don't know what
    else to do. Any advice would be greatly appreciated.
    I also just tried to see if I could get by with using
    Macromedia Flash 8; and the same thing happens when I try to open a
    new file.
    Tips? Tricks? ... This is irritating. I need to get a working
    Flash program going for my Flash class ASAP.
    Thanks!

    In other news, all other Adobe products I use work just fine;
    but that's only Dreamweaver, Fireworks, Photoshop and Illustrator.
    It just seems to be Flash that is having problems. Does anyone know
    of any other programs that work like Flash and do pretty much the
    same thing? Make the same kind of files that Flash can open/edit?
    Has anyone else had the same issue I'm having? (In the first
    post.)

  • Flash CS3 crashing after Mac 10.5.7 Update

    Ever since I updated to 10.5.7 Flash CS3 crashes a lot! I could be doing anything and it just crashes. It happens every hour or so, it's weird. Has there been any reported issues of this? Can anybody assist me in maybe how to fix this?

    I have been using an external CSS file simply for defining font styles
    site wide. The rendering of them on screen in layout view is now just
    the plain default font prior to showing the CSS altered version of it.
    Sorry, I'm not sure I understand what you mean here. You mean it shows your text in the default and *then* renders it correctly using the CSS after a delay?
    I tried torching the prefs...perhaps I did the wrong file...what file is to be deleted?
    ~/Library/Preferences/Adobe GoLive 9.0 Prefs
    ~/Library/Preferences/Adobe/GoLive/Settings9 (a folder)
    ~/Library/Preferences/com.Adobe.GoLive.plist
    Move them out to, say, the Desktop. If they are not the cause of the problem, put them back replacing the newly-created versions.
    I cloned my os prior to the update and all was fine. Rebooting to clone
    css renders normal...but in 10.5.7 its not rendering in layout view.
    I'm not seeing the same thing here with GL9/OS X 10.5.7, so it may be its something specific to your particular update. You might also want to consider doing a re-import of the site to recreate the site file and see if that helps.

  • Flash CS3 crashes whenever creating or opening file

    Hello,
    I am running on Windows XP Flash CS3 professional. I was working on a project and using the text tool to add some text to the project... when I went to paste the content into the text box, the focus went to the font face selection text box and the Flash program crashed.
    Now it continues to crash whenever I try to open an existing FLA or create a new file. I restarted the PC several times and this issue continues.
    Here is the Application error report from the Event Viewer under Computer Management
    Faulting application flash.exe, version 9.0.0.494, faulting module flash.exe, version 9.0.0.494, fault address 0x004ee526.
    My next step is to reinstall....hopefully I will not need to do that.
    thank you,
    Tim

    Hello,
    Could you please install the new Flash Professional CS6 Update 2? Let us know if you still face crashes.

  • Flash CS3 crashes when saving custom workspace

    I have Flash CS3 on a Windows XP sp2 machine. Everytime I try
    to save a custom workspace, Flash crashes. There is no error
    messages, Flash freezes and becomes non-responsive. I have noticed
    in the Task Manger that there seems to be 2 Flash windows open at
    the time, but I never see the second instance.
    I have seen other people who have issue with Flash crashing
    with dual monitors - which I also have.
    Does anyone know of a solution?
    Thanks!

    I don't know of a solution, but what you describe is
    *exactly* what happens to me (even down to the 2 instances of Flash
    in the Task Manager). What video card are you using? I'm using an
    NVIDIA Quadro PCI-E series card.

  • Flash CS3 Constantly Crashing

    I am using flash CS3 and 60% of the time when I hit
    CTRL+ENTER to publish the flash file, it crashes. It doesn't give
    me an error message, it just crashes and asks if I want to send an
    error report to microsoft. Does anyone else have this problem? Is
    there a way to fix it?
    I learned after the first 2 time of losing my work to save
    each time before I publish.

    It's incredible how Adobe forums have declined in recent
    times. Most posts here have 0 responses.
    I too have this problem - and when trying to save workspace
    settings.
