oh, and the only other person i found mentioning how to fix a similiar problem said when their fonts (in suitcase) were turned off, the crash occured, when the fonts were activated, no crash. does this make any sense? which font do you think actionscripting would need?

ActionScript

I'm having the same problem with both Flash 8 and CS3, using Mac OS 10.4.9 on a PowerBook.

I can't seem to find any solution online--this bug renders Flash unusable, without being able to write ActionScripts!

I have reinstalled both versions of Flash, logged into a different account on my Mac, and it *still* crahses whenever I try to open the 'Actions' panel!

had you previously loaded c3 demo?

The only demo I had was for Photoshop CS3.

This problem occurs with both Flash 8 & CS3, so it can't be tied to a demo.

I'm starting to think that it is font-related as trying to open a different window in version 8 also crashes the program.

Any idea what fonts Flash needs to run? I'm trying to find out online, but not having much luck. I'm going to try to contact Adobe tech support....
