Hi,

The Adobe (definitely non-Macromedia) software all seems to have "preferences" files. Different programs have them in different places. http://www.google.co.uk/search?hl=en&q=cs4+corrupt+preferences&btnG=Google+Search&meta=

I was messing around with our network shares and people kept complaining that PhotoShop / InDesign, etc. were hanging. We worked out that me moving network shares caused the hang when people tried to open / browse for files after I had renamed a share because the open / browse dialog always tries to connect to the last place browsed. Because this path is stored in the prefs for "convenience", the only way to fix the problem was to delete the preferences files for the appropriate program - but each one has a different way of doing it: e.g.
   InDesign
   http://kb.adobe.com/selfservice/viewContent.do?externalId=kb408055
   PhotoShop
http://www.webdesign.org/web/photoshop/articles/replacing-the-preferences-file.5729.html I thought it might be a similar thing since Adobe have been d***ing around with Flash to help the "workflow" thing... Some people mention Brigde having issues too. This should be something that Adobe can fix because other people's software seems to deal with missing paths reasonably well, but because the issue is partly due to Windows networking rubbish, so it's not entirely Adobe's fault.

   It might not be though, so apologies in advance.

Hmmm, well, everything does come from the network. But it doesnt really
lockup most of the time, it's just unreponsive/hanging for halve a minute.
I'm not sure what you mean by pref's files, you mean the local cache?

Hi,

  It's not a network thing is it??
    We keep having to reset our pref's files for various Adobe products
when a network share drops off... - when the program tries to open a browse
dialog at the last known location that is on a network share that has
disappeared, the program locks up.  Have seen this with PhotoShop / InDesign
so far - we have to keep deleting the prefs for each software.  I hope CS4
has not done this too...

Hi guys,

Does anyone share the experience when selecting the library in flash cs4,
it
stalls the computer for up to halve a minute? It's really annoying,
happens
alot and doesn't happen in Flash cs3, with the same files, so I guess it's
nothing to do with the size of the library.

At first I thought it was switching panels that made it happen, but it
only
happens while selecting the library. I cannot find any info on it in the
bug
database
of Adobe, nor with google. Should I try reinstalling cs4(gonna cost half
the
day...sigh), I've heard that helps in some cases, but frankly, if anyone
has
a
better solution that's be great.

Best regards,
Meinte
