    Flash CS 5.5 - loading recent item fails

    MT.Freelance Community Member

      Flash CS 5.5 (11.5.1.349)

      Mac OS 10.6.8

       

      Situation: Work on a file, save it, and close it (example file is stored on local drive). Attempt to reload the file using the recent items list from the splash screen:

       

      File does not load, and output screen message appears:

       

      The following JavaScript error(s) occurred:

      Cannot find file /Volumes/users/mt/Desktop/Working Files/TMK2079_HI/Flash/TMK2079_HI-SQ.fla.

       

      This is the file just saved by Flash... and it cannot locate it.

       

      I can browse with File > Open, so it is not a critical work loss or stoppage issue, but it is annoying that it happens. It only seems to affect Flash as InDesign, Illustrator, and Photoshop behave as expected with the recent files.

       

      It seems to be able to find files saved to a network location, but not to the local machine (in this case a folder on the desktop).

       

      Any suggestions on how to correct this issue?

           I tried renaming the "Working Files" folder to remove the space, but the issue persists.

       

      Anyone else encountered it?

           I tried a seach but didn't get any hits that seemed relevant.
