Flash CS5 Slow Start up and crash on Snow Leopard

David_MB Nov 20, 2010 12:23 PM

Hello,

I'm using a new Mac Pro with Snow Leopard. We have Adobe MC CS5.

I'm experiencing serious problems with Flash CS5. The program locks up at "Initializing Tools" for several minutes at start up. Once the program opens it will crash if I try to create a blank document. Other Adobe programs work fine.

Flash CS4 worked fine on this computer.

Anyone have any ideas on how to fix this? I've tried uninstalling and deleting all adobe documents from the configuration folders. It just seems like this machine is cursed or something.

I've noticed other people have had this same problem on both Mac and Windows machines. Any help from Adobe?

Thanks,

David

I figured it out. For me the problem was my very large font library existing in both the user font folder and the system library font folder. Once I deleted the duplicate Fonts from my user library Flash returned to normal. Everything works great now.
