Wonky CS4 goto commands with Windows 7.0

I have a big problem I'm hoping someone can help me with.  I've been using Flash CS4 with ActionScript 3.0.  They just upgraded my computer from a Windows XP to a Windows Professional 7.0 system.  On the new system, whenever I compile an SWF (select Test Movie or hit ctrl enter),  the goto commands go wonky.  The goto commands work fine with any old SWFs that were compiled with the old system, but not with any SWFs created with the new system.  When I add a listener to a button, sometimes it works, sometimes not.  The button simply goes dead, nothing happens when it’s clicked.   When I add a goto command to the timeline within an IF command, the playback stalls.  I’m hoping someone is familiar with this problem.  Maybe there’s a plugin I can download that will fix an incompatibility with Windows 7.0. 
Here’s the script I use to program my buttons.  This programs a back button called “BTN_BACK” to send the timeline to a previous frame labeled “LASTFRAME.”  Again, this worked fine with Windows XP system, but not with 7.0
BTN_BACK.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK, BACK);  
function BACK (event:MouseEvent):void
{              SoundMixer.stopAll();
                event.stopPropagation();
                gotoAndStop("LASTFRAME ", "SCENE");

uninstall and then re-install flash pro.  you don't have to uninstall your settings.

  • Flash CS4 not working with Windows 7 64bit and Kaspersky Internet Security

    I have a new i5 core computer running Windows 7 64bit retail. With Kaspersky Internet Security 2010 installed Flash CS4 becomes so unresponsive that it is completely unusable. Uninstall KIS and it works absolutely fine. I've already read on another forum that someone else is experiencing the same issue with the same combination of products. Is anyone else having this problem amd if so how did you solve it? I've posted on the Kaspersky forum with no solution thus far.
    Does Norton work OK with Windows 7(64) and CS4?

    *** PROBLEM SOLVED ***
    Taxxem you are a star. Ideed turning off 'disable external service control' and disabling 'self defense' under 'settings  -options' does indeed bring Flash back to life. Disabling self-defense had the most impact (and causes Kaspersky to grumble somewhat) but disabling external service control also had an impact, albeit much smaller. I'll post this solution against my Kaspersky forum post and hopefully they will do something about it.

  • Cs4 install issues with windows 8

    I am having problems installing masters 4 on my new laptop with windows 8 it does not have a dvd player, after days of downloading from your cs4 page i gave up from the errors and went and bought a DVD player to use my discs from adobe... I can get it to open ask if i want to install which I say yes it Starts to run then stops... I have turned off the processes in windows clean booted and same thing.
    So after weeks of frustration how do you declaring i install my product?
    To avoid this with lightroom i bought just weeks ago i upgraded to the new one to avoid this exact same thing. Amazingly it worked fine after i paid for the new version...
    I do not need the upgrades... cs4 does what I need it to do just fine for when i need to use it i mostly use lightroom for work and photoshop and illustrator or every great now and then one of the others in the collection.
    This is very frustrating and swaying my client loyalty...
    So where can you direct me to directions to install my programs please?
    This is preventing me from working.

    CS4 was never tested on Win 8 or developed with it in mind. Compatibility issues are to be expectred. Provide exact system info and the install logs:

  • Indesign_ cs4 &  photoshop_cs5 compatible with Windows 7 64-bit OS?

    Am buying a new computer, probably a Lenovo with Windows 7 64-bit OS.  Want to know if I will be able to use  indesign_ cs4 &  photoshop_cs5 on it. They were originally installed on Windows XP.

    Shouldn't be a problem but you should be aware that if you upgrade to CS5.5 now you'll get a free upgrade to CS6 when it ships.

  • Can CS4 be used with windows 7

    I had CS4 but my IT says it is incompatible with CS7. Is this true?

    I meant is it compatible with "Windows 7".

  • Question for Anyone Using CS4 Production Premium with Windows 7

    I'm testing Windows 7 at home with CS3 Production Premium and have not had any issues. Of course CS4 is quite a bit different.
    Anyone using CS4 Production Premium on Windows 7 regularly? Any issues to report?
    Thanks

    Thanks for replying to my post:

    On our systems at work that have XP and Vista + CS4 Production Premium.  I've noticed this with preview files in particular and possibly some others, I don't remember. The "show only exact file" checkbox is greyed out. This is somewhat annoying because projects can have a huge number of preview files with long  cryptic names making it a pain to locate the correct one manually to get the ball rolling. If I don't think it'll take too long to re-render, I just select "skip preview files".
    We bought 3 licenses for Windows 7 and I'm encouraged by the performance, reliability and features on my home test system (RC 64) that has CS3 installed. Can't wait to get rid of XP and Vista.

  • Encore CS4 not compatible with Windows 7 [32] ?!

    just reinstalled Windows 7 [32 - ultimate] and Adobe CS4 Master Collection and I get this error message each time I try to start Encore: "Encore is not compatible with this version of Windows" I had it installed before, worked perfect, till now. when I force it to start it goes only till Import as asset, then it freezes, shows a blue screen, then the computer restarts. any suggestions?

    Hi,
    As you mentioned that you are using Encore CS4 on win 7. There was an issue with Encore CS4 being used on win 7.
    There might be the case that the pxhelp is not compatible with win 7 (64 bit)
    Install latest pxhelp from -
    http://kb.roxio.com/search.aspx?URL=/content/kb/General%20Information/ 000070GN&PARAMS=
    This has solved the problem of lot of people. I hope it works for you also.
    Let me know if it solves your problem.
    En CS5 and 5.1 are shipped with the correct version of pxhelp engine.
    Thanks,
    Ramesh.
     

  • Encore CS4 not comaptible with Windows 7?

    I just installed Windows 7 Ultimate (which I'll probably regret later) and put my CS4 Master Collection 30 day trial on it.
    Encore launches and I get the "This program has known compatibility issues" B.S. from Windows. The program will still run if I tell Windows to run it, but it's awful frustrating that Everytime Windows makes a new OS or SP release, suddenly everything but Office, Internet Explorer, and Windows Media Player is incompatible.
    Anyone else seen this error, or is everyone still using Vista or XP?

    UPDATE: The Roxio fix seems to also fix the 64-bit OS. I'm not running any Roxio software but this patch seems to do the trick

    A few points about comments in this thread:
    Unfortunately Windows DVD Maker does not support Blue Ray. I just built a new machine specifically for burning HD video. Now I have no way to create the disc.
    Unplugging the Blue Ray drive allows Encore to load the HD assets, but when you plug it back in Encore hangs on the splash screen saying it is transcoding.
    I have two RAID controllers on my MB. I am running Intel 8.9 and JMicron JMB36X. I tried plugging the optical drive into both controllers and Encore fails with both.
    I have a feeling Encore is not playing by WIN 7's rules, (undocumented/unsupported call?) which is why it hangs on the sys info screen.
    BTW This was a fresh install on a new machine I built this week:
    i7 860 Quad Core
    ASUS P7P55D-PRO
    8 GB  DDR3 1600 mhz
    ATI Radeon HD 4670
    Boot Disk:  WD Veloci Raptor 300
    Work Disk: 2x WD Veloci Raptor 300 RAID 0

    Hello, I've been using Premier Pro CS4 on my new Sony Vaio that is running Windows 7.

My laptop has all of the required specifications and I cannot figure out what's going on. Thanks for your help.

  • Is CS4 illustrator compatible with Windows Terminal Server 2012 (64bit)?

    Please can you confirm if the CS4 version of illustrator will work on a 64bit version of Windows 2012 TS?

    You won't get any confirmation on this. Adobe desktop applications are not in any way tested or certified for any server operating systems. This doesn't mean that it couldn't work, but you will have to figure out things yourself and it may take a lot of work to e.g. configure the server's user policies so the activation system can actualyl function.

  • Is Photoshop CS4 compatible with Windows 8?

    I am leaning towards finnally moving away from my XP unit and onto a Windows 8 unit.  I want to confirm my CS4 is compatible with Windows 8 and what (if any) extra steps I may need to take to get drivers or such.
    Please advise....THANK YOU!!

  • Will CS4 work with windows 8?

    I have just loaded the 2 discs onto a new PC with Windows 8. The upload seemed to be successful but I cannot access the working screen - the computer has all the folders for Bridge, Encore etc but now "applications"

    Hi John
    Even though my PC took in all the files, as you know I was concerned that the application icons were not available to activate the software. I’m not that technically minded so didn’t want to fiddle with EXE files so uninstalled and tried again. This time the icons appeared on the start menu page of Windows 8.1! Although I haven’t edited anything yet, I accessed the programme and everything seems to be working!  Thanks for your time and getting back to me and at least this site can state that CS4 DOES work with Windows 8.1. An answer I couldn’t find anywhere on the web.

  • Problems with Playback in CS5, CS4 (gotoAndPlay command)

    I've encountered a really frustrating issue a couple times now throughout the past year, both in CS5 and CS4.  I get to a certain point in a project where it just seems Flash does not want to cooperate anymore.  It's difficult to even explain what the issue is because it doesn't seem to  be triggered by one thing in particular, and often produces different results.  It's almost as if the file becomes corrupted. 
    Here's what will happen:
    *I will create symbols and place each one in its own frame on the main timeline, so that I can see them easily.  The assets will usually contain animation inside the symbol. When I'm working on a particular symbol, I will put a gotoAndStop command on the first frame of the main timeline, pointing it to the symbol I want to test.  So if I'm making a tea kettle, and have placed it on frame 4, I will put a "gotoAndStop(4);" command on the first frame.
    *At a certain point, I will start having problems with test movies using this gotoAndStop method, even if I don't change any the scripting.  Sometimes it will turn off layers that aren't supposed to be guides.  Other times it will show me a blank frame.  If I replace the gotoAndStop command with a  stop command on the particular frame I want, my project will display correctly. 
    If it were a relatively small project, I would deal with it and test everything with the Stop command.  However, this is a fairly big, complex project, and in my experience, this issue seems to contaminate other files that these assets are copied to.
    *I've double checked the scripts inside of the symbol, which are all simple "stop();" or "gotoAndPlay("label");" commands, and there's no error showing up in the Output window.
    *The most random things will trigger this problem.  Sometimes, it's adding a shape tween to the symbol.  Other times, I could turn off the background layer in the main timeline by making it a guide, and all my other layers would show up.  But this background layer shouldn't affect anything, as it only has a "stop();" command inside.  I was able to fix the problem once by saving the FLA as an Uncompressed Flash Document (xlf).  When I opened the new file, it would play back correctly, but eventually, it'd break again. 
    I was having similar problems in CS4 on another project.  In one case, we discovered we could fix the problem temporarily by deleting a single tiny line in one of the symbols.  Eventually, it would pop up again, though.  Another time, I could fix it by blowing away all the linkage identifiers, but that doesn't seem to be working this time. 
    It's very odd.  Anyone have any ideas?

    She didn't export it for CS4. If she had it wouldn't be an INDD file. She needs to export to IDML and you need to realize that this document may not look like it does in CS5.
    You do need to upgrade if you want to work successfully with this other designer. Worth noting, in case you don't, is that you cannot upgrade individual components of the suite. Personally, I recommend Design Premium as the best bang for the buck.

    You find a link a Amazon on that page, which as far as I can tell is the best place to buy with free shipping and for the most part no sales tax.

    Run the cleaner tool and reinstall with sufficient user privileges and security stuff turned off. Your install went wrong because you didn't consider this.
