Win 7 "Desktop WM Session Manager" stopped by FW CS5

Whenever I start Fireworks CS5 it stops my "Desktop Window Manager Session Manager" thus disabling Aero in WIndows 7.
Any clues on how to prevent this from happening??
Everything seems to work fine elsewhere (Photoshop, InDesign, Illustrator) just Fireworks has a problem.

This seems like an older issue.
http://superuser.com/questions/26195/issue-with-fireworks-8-on-vista-windows-7-and-aero
Can someone please comment if they have this happen also.
Is there some kind of work around that anyone knows of?

  • Creative cloud desktop application manager stopped working

    I've been using CC for about 6 months with no problems. However, after updating Adobe Acrobat, the CC desktop app manager stopped working. I tried reinstalling it, and then running the Creative Cloud set-up, but that didn't work either. It looks like it's trying and then the set-up just stops. Nothing. No error message. Just won't work. I'm using Windows 7 Professional.

  • Windows 2012r2 Remote desktop services: session based: Locked down

    I am trying to lock down the remote desktop services sessions , just like I did with windows 2003 TS.
    I am following this article :
    http://www.it.ltsoy.com/windows/lock-down-remote-desktop-services-server-2012/
    I have done till disable registry modifications.
    I stopped to check if the changes made were in effect before continuing.
    What did work is the disable server manager popup at user logon.
    Nothing else seems to have taken effect: just to mention a few
    Microsoft administrative tools,
    network and sharing center.
    ABCD drives are still being seen.
    What did I miss ?

  • Hello, I have a big problem with Firefox: Session Manager & Undo Closed Tab addons are not working, Sync Is not working. History is working. How to fix this?

    Firefox remembers history but doesn't remember closed tabs, sessions.
    It happened after updating Fox to v. 19.0.2 on one computer.
    In Firefox Options is set Use Custom Settings For History, everything is checked except Always Use Private Browsing Mode. So I am not in private browsing.
    When I press on Undo Closed Button nothing happens & in session manager Save Session Button is greyed out. I've tried installing other add-ons that can remember tabs. tried to disable/reinstall these 2 add-ons. Did't help. On my 2nd computer I have same add-ons, same settings and they are working normally. on 3rd computer undo closed tabs works also. How to fix this? I decided to ask before doing Firefox Reset...
    Sync is a separate problem. It works, but quite often it logs me out of Sync account. Then I can log in only using long recovery key and password (choosing option I don't have device with me because it does not accept keys for pairing device.)
    Thanks for reading.

    I have exactly the same settings in Options (in both computers)
    for history, these 2 add-ons and all other stuff in Options. The only difference is that on 1 pc sessions can be saved and closed tabs can be reopened, on other main pc they stopped to work. + no any other add-on that does similar things works on this pc.
    It is also interesting that I can reopen closed visited sites from History Panel, but not by pressing the Button. For now I only manually bookmark links to a temporary folder.
    Recently (some 2 month ago) I pressed x and Firefox closed all tabs without saving them without displaying save & quit pop up.
    so I changed 4 settings in about.config
    browser.tabs.warn on close true
    browser.warn on quit true
    browser.warn on restart true
    browser.show.quit warning true
    but the problem with sessions appeared only 1 week ago.
    So I guess the problem is not with the History settings or other settings. Seems that something responsible for button or for storing info about tabs/sessions got corrupted. :(

  • Firefox 5 on Win7: All my plugin buttons have gone from the toolbar. They are not in the customise pane. Session manager offers the correct sessions but opens with last session instead. I've re-installed % and reset toolbars. Help!

    Win 7
    Firefox 5
    Problem with high memory use.
    restarted
    Plugin buttons gone from toolbar/
    Missing plugins still show in plugin manager but buttons missing from toolbar add buttons pane.
    Tried reset toolbars - no difference.
    Tried re-instal of Firefox 5 - no difference except:
    Session manager offers correct session on startup but starts with last session

    In case you are using "Clear history when Firefox closes":
    *do not clear the Browsing History
    *Firefox > Preferences > Privacy > Firefox will: "Use custom settings for history": [X] "Clear history when Firefox closes" > Settings
    *https://support.mozilla.org/kb/remove-browsing-search-and-download-history
    Note that clearing "Site Preferences" clears all exceptions for cookies, images, pop-up windows, software installation, passwords, and other website specific data.
    You can check for problems with the sessionstore.js and sessionstore.bak files in the Firefox profile folder that store session data.
    *Help > Troubleshooting Information > Profile Directory: Show Folder (Linux: Open Directory; Mac: Show in Finder)
    *http://kb.mozillazine.org/Profile_folder_-_Firefox
    *http://kb.mozillazine.org/Multiple_profile_files_created
    Deleting sessionstore.js will cause App Tabs and Tab Groups and open and closed (undo) tabs to get lost and you will have to recreate them (make a note or bookmark them if possible).

    The fact that it doesn't know what the format is
    might have to do with the problem. I've had similar
    problems, and I've traced it back to missing jars and
    codecs. Have you tried running the same code locally
    without the transmission to see if you player will
    even play the file?Already and it works, I used Player to play it and play normally, I try to make it with the diferents codecs of audio and video, but no sucess.

  • Solaris 10 gnome session manager crashes on login

    There are two Solaris 10 servers at work that I cannot log into. At the login screen I choose Options --> Session --> Java Desktop System, Release 3
    and then try to log in. I get the following error message:
    "The GNOME session manager (process XXXXX) has crashed due to a fatal error. (Segmentation Fault). When you close this dialog, all applications will close and your session will exit. Please save all your files before closing this dialog."
    I was able to find one post on this error using google. It said that the user solved this problem by editing the LD_LIBRARY_PATH variable by moving /usr/local/lib to the beginning of the line. This didn't fix my problem. I logged in via ssh and double checked that the LD_LIBRARY_PATH change had saved.
    Other people can log into the server just fine. Just not me. I even completely wiped my home directory. Anybody know where I can find a fix for this?

    Just discovered that if one of the working users logs completely out, they cannot log back in. So this error affects everybody.

  • No session management in gnome 2.24

    i upgraded to gnome 2.24 and taken care of doing it from the console.
    (1) now session management is not working:
    if i select autosave window on logout in session management properties
    nothing is saved because when i login i got empty desktop.
    anyone ?
    is it an upstream bug ?
    (2) sometimes (i don't know when), i got an ugly grey look for the top bar and all the decoration. when i launch appearance pref i got an error dialog that tells me that gnome-settings-daemon is not running ! if i choose again clearlook theme, i got everything back to normal. it happens only twice
    (3) running compiz does not work with some method on the wiki. the one using a .desktop in /etc/X11/sessions and WINDOW_MANAGER variable. it's because the varaible is not taken into account with this new gnome ?
    (3.1) switching desktop (or viewport) with gnome pager with compiz-fusion 0.7.8  running make crashes almost all gnome toolbar desktop ... and WM ? but i can change viewport/desktop with compiz without problem

    here is the error dialog when i launch apperance preferences from system menu:
    Impossible de démarrer le gestionnaire de paramètres « gnome-settings-daemon ».
    Sans le gestionnaire de paramètres de GNOME activé, certaines préférences peuvent ne pas prendre effet. Ceci peut être dû à un problème avec Bonobo, ou qu'un gestionnaire de paramètres non-GNOME (par ex. KDE) est déjà actif et entre en conflit avec le gestionnaire de paramètres GNOME.
    so it says: can't launch gnome-settings-daemon because of bonobo or any non-GNOME WM
    i got no compiz running
    it happens when i logout more than 2 times. and relogin may too fast and a daemon hasn't shutdown yet ??

  • I have a problem with session manager session files because of the invalid json storage data submited by firefox

    Hi, i have problem with session manager's session files. The problem is: the submitted storage data from firefox which is put between "storage":{ and its matching closing brace } But in some of my session files there is non equal { and } under storage's braces. I need to get storage data but in my case it is very hard to do. My question is there any char put before or after { and } like /{ or \{ to avoid confusion? If there is not such thing, i think there could be different solution but i am not sure: i look couple of my session files; after "storage":{...} there is ,_"formDataSaved" so i can get storage data in this example ... by looking between "storage":{ and ,"_formDataSaved" easily. Is there every time ,"_formDataSaved" after "storage":{ ?  Thank you.

    Well, it seems waiting is not my strong suit..! I renamed a javascript file called recovery to sessionstore. This file was in the folder sessionstore-backups I had copied from mozilla 3 days ago, when my tabs were still in place. I replaced the sessionstore in mozilla's default folder with the renamed file and then started mozilla. And the tabs reappeared as they were 3 days ago!
    So there goes the tab problem. But again when I started mozilla the window saying "a script has stopped responding" appeared, this time the script being: chrome//browser/contenttabbrowser.xml2542
    If someone knows how to fix this and make firefox launch normally, please reply! Thank you

  • Session Manager with i3/Awesome/Xmonad?

    Hello, First post here so let me know if I am doing anything wrong,
    I recently started using i3 and I could not recommend it more, I have given xmonad a shot and was a big fan and I know a lot of people seem to like Awesome, my only question is...
    Are there any session managers that would work for any of them?
    I love them but I spend a lot of time getting things just right so I have a nice flow at work (I loooooove i3 once I have everything where I want it). Before switching to xmonad from xfce4 I always had my work from office session, my work from home session, and one or two others. Anyone know of any way to save sessions in one of the mentioned window managers? Or are there any other window managers I should look into for this feature?
    Thanks!!

    I think this session thing is about stopping the applications in a way that you can start them again.
    1. Different users/computers - It's very static and doesn't really scale.
    2. Any X11 Session Manager - You have to log out of X11 and you can only have one session open.
    3. My super script - For sessions on a tag/workspace level. Sorry for the bad english and bash. I'm about to rewrite it, it will support i3 and openbox. But maybe I should wait for wayland.
    I have read that systemd article more than once, but I didn't understand if it's limited to 2 or not?

  • XFDesktop not running, FAILED TO CONNECT TO SESSION MANAGER [SOLVED]

    Hi all, new to the arch forums, I've recently installed arch with xfce4, and I've been having trouble changing the desktop background as the GUI for it will flash up then close instantly. I tried to reload xfdesktop with xfdesktop --reload, this returns "xfdesktop is not running". Running $ sudo xfdesktop returns:
    (xfdesktop:5211): GLib-WARNING **: (gerror.c:381):g_error_new_valist: runtime check failed: (domain != 0)

    Also, when I look in xfce4-session-settings, all xfce applications are running but xfdesktop isn't there.
    Thanks in advance

    Prepending sudo to random commands will eventually break your system.  Don't do it.
    In this case it simply prevents it from working as the session manager is running for your user not for the root user, so this command has nothing to connect to.  Remove 'sudo'.
    If I run just $ xfdesktop I then get the same error

  • JMStudio Error  "Can not create session manager"

    Hi,
    I'm trying to transmit an mpg file through a simple pc to pc network, using the transmission wizard in the JMStudio, and everytime it causes a "can not create session manager" error, even when I try to transmit .mp3 file
    I'm using an ip like 100.100.0.1 for the sender machine, and 100.100.0.2 for the receiver machine, and I don't know where is the problem
    thanks in advance

    Um,maybe the port that you use for transmission is already occupied.
    Make sure that you are not using JMStudio to transmit streams while trying to receive streams from the same port.

  • What is new with MAX 2.0 and is it compatible with Session Manager?

    We added non-IVI instrument information in, basically the same structure as for IVI instruments,
    into the ivi.ini file to keep all instrument information in the same place. Using MAX Version 1.1 caused no problems whatsoever and the system worked fine. With the advent of MAX 2.0 you seem to use ivi.ini as well as config.mxs to store instrument information. What we have found now is that given a working ivi.ini file from MAX 1.1, we end up with 2 or 3 copies of all the devices in the IVI Instruments->Devices section! When the duplicate entries are deleted and the application exited, the
    ivi.ini file is updated minus the [Hardware->] sections which contain the resource descriptors that our appl
    ications look for. As an added complication, under MAX 2.1 (From an evaluation of the Switch Executive) It behaves the same, except that it almost always crashes with one of the following errors. 'OLEChannelWnd Fatal Error', or 'Error#26 window.cpp line 10028 Labview Version 6.0.2' Once opened and closed MAX 2.1 will not open again! (Note we do not have LabVIEW on the system.) What is the relationship between the config.mxs and ivi.ini now? Also, your Session Manager application (for use with TestStand) extracts information from ivi.ini and may expect entries to be manually entered into ivi.ini (e.g. NISessionManager_Reset = True) i.e. Is the TestStand Session Manager compatible with MAX 2.0?

    Brian,
    The primary difference between MAX 1.1 and 2.x is that there is a new internal architecture. MAX 2.x synchronizes data between the config.mxs and the ivi.ini. The reason you're having trouble is that user-editing of the ivi.ini file is not supported with MAX 2.x.
    Some better solutions to accomplish what you want:
    1. Do as Mark Ireton suggested in his answer
    2. Use the IVI Run-Time Configuration functions. They will allow you to dynamically configure your Logical Names, Virtual Instruments, Instrument Drivers, and Devices. You can then use your own format for storing and retrieving that information, and use the relevant pieces for each execution. You can find information on these functions in the IVI CVI Help file located in Start >> National I
    nstruments >> IVI Driver Toolset folder. Go to the chapter on Run-time Initialization Configuration.
    I strongly suggest #2, because those functions will continue to be supported in the future, while other mechanisms may not be.

  • Session management problems with SSO

    Hi all-
    I've been getting an Apex app tied to SSO as a partner app (per http://www.oracle.com/technology/products/database/application_express/howtos/sso_partner_app.html). So far, it sort of works. If I go to my apex app, it redirects me to SSO, where I authenticate and end up back in the apex app. Great. Here are two problems I've run into:
    1. If I am already authenticated to SSO, and I go to my apex app (url like: http://host/pls/apex/f?p=101:1), my browser goes into an infinite redirect (url like: http://host/pls/apex/f?p=101:1:::::FSP_AFTER_LOGIN_URL:\f? p=101|1|||||FSP_AFTER_LOGIN_URL|\f?p=101|1|||||FSP_AFTER_LOGIN_URL|\f? p=101|1|||||FSP_AFTER_LOGIN_URL|\f?p=101|1|||||FSP_AFTER_LOGIN_URL|\f? p=101|1|||||FSP_AFTER_LOGIN_URL|\f?p=101|1|||||FSP_AFTER_LOGIN_URL|\f? p=101|1|||||FSP_AFTER_LOGIN_URL|\f?p=101|1|||||FSP_AFTER_LOGIN_URL|\f? p=101|1|||||FSP_AFTER_LOGIN_URL|\f?p=101|1|||||FSP_AFTER_LOGIN_URL|\f? p=101|1|||||FSP_AFTER_LOGIN_URL|\f?p=101|1|||||FSP_AFTER_LOGIN_URL|\f? p=101|1|||||FSP_AFTER_LOGIN_URL|\f?p=101|1|||||FSP_AFTER_LOGIN_URL|\f? p=101|1|||||FSP_AFTER_LOGIN_URL|\f?p=101|1|||||FSP_AFTER_LOGIN_URL|\f? p=101|1|||||FSP_AFTER_LOGIN_URL|\f?p=101|1|||||FSP_AFTER_LOGIN_URL|\f? p=101|1|\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\). To resolve, I have to clear cookies.
    2. If I am using my apex app, then log out of SSO (in another browser window), I can still click around in my apex app (i.e., apex thinks I'm still authenticated).
    Anyone have any thoughts? I'm wondering if I need to do something in page session management (under authentication schemes) to fix #2, but I have no clue about #1.
    Thanks
    Rob

    Hi Scott-
    Thanks for the info on #2 - I'll work on that after I get #1 sorted out, since it's the more dire problem. Here's some more info:
    Apex version = 3.0.1.00.08
    SSO SDK = ssosdk902.zip
    I set it up as "My Application as Partner App." I used "MY_PARTNER_NAME" as SSO Partner Application Name. In the list of SSO Partner Apps on the SSO Admin page, my partner app name is also MY_PARTNER_NAME. It gives the following info:
    Login URL:      https://sso_host/pls/orasso/orasso.wwsso_app_admin.ls_login
    Single Sign-Off URL:      https://sso_host/pls/orasso/orasso.wwsso_app_admin.ls_logout
    Home URL: http://apex_host/pls/apex
    Success URL: http://apex_host/pls/apex/RBLICK.YOUR_PACKAGE.PROCESS_SUCCESS
    Logout URL: http://apex_host/pls/apex
    RBLICK is the schema owning the apex app. In there, I created a package called YOUR_PACKAGE:
    create package YOUR_PACKAGE as
    procedure process_success(urlc in varchar2);
    end YOUR_PACKAGE;
    CREATE PACKAGE BODY YOUR_PACKAGE AS
    procedure process_success(urlc in varchar2) as
    begin
    wwv_flow_custom_auth_sso.process_success(
    urlc=>urlc,
    p_partner_app_name=>'MY_PARTNER_NAME');
    end process_success;
    END YOUR_PACKAGE;
    Anything look obviously wrong to you?
    Thanks!

  • What is the difference between Session timeout and Short Session timeout Under Excel Service Application -- session management?

    Under Excel Service Application --> session management; what is the difference between Session timeout and Short Session timeout?

    Any call made from the API will automatically be set to the “Session Timeout” period, no matter
    what. Calls made from EWA (Excel Web Access) will get the “Short Session Timeout” period assigned to it initially.
