FM8, Vista and holding down the left mouse button
Alrighty, Before I get annoyed with Adobe Tech Support, I will ask the question here. Has anyone experienced (and hopefully solved) a problem with FM8 under Vista in which holding down the left mouse button for more than a second or two - as in to do a drag select - and FM locks up? We are experiencing this on 3 machines, 2 are 64-bit Vista Ultimate (identical machines) and 1 is 32-bit Vista Ultimate. Each has different mouse/keyboard combos. The only commonality between the systems is FM8 and being Vista Ultimate. Sound familiar? Hoping for some responses from those on the bleeding edge (bleeding because it is Vista, edge 'cause ya wanna jump). Thanks. Will. -- Will.

RE: FM8, Vista and holding down the left mouse button
I Googled left click +++vista freeze and got over a zillion returns. From what I read, this is a Vista hang, and in this case probably not FM. The most common problems seem to be the Aero theme and wireless mice.

Re: FM8, Vista and holding down the left mouse button
After not coming up with any good hints online, I spent some time with Tech Support. It would seem that there is a conflict in background services. At first it seemed to be SnagIt - running SnagIt AFTER running FM on my machine caused the mysterious hangs to stop - but that was quickly tossed out as this did not help on at least one of my co-workers' machines. So, we are in the process of restarting with various services enabled to figure out what is what. I will keep the list informed. The experiments begin.

FM8, Vista and holding down the left mouse button
Alrighty,
Before I get annoyed with Adobe Tech Support, I will ask the question
here. Has anyone experienced (and hopefully solved) a problem with FM8
under Vista in which holding down the left mouse button for more than a
second or two - as in to do a drag select - and FM locks up? We are
experiencing this on 3 machines, 2 are 64-bit Vista Ultimate (identical
machines) and 1 is 32-bit Vista Ultimate. Each has different
mouse/keyboard combos. The only commonality between the systems is FM8
and being Vista "Ultimate".
Sound familiar? Hoping for some responses from those on the bleeding
edge ("bleeding" because it is Vista, "edge" 'cause ya wanna jump).
Thanks.
Will.
