Flash CS3 IDE bug
This is a real weird one; for a while now, when I quit the IDE the whole thing would freez up and the only way to close it would be to end the process. Try as I might, repare, reinstall, nothing fixed the issue.
Then recently, almost by chance, I came aross a post which had the following comment:
I’ve had the same trouble with Flash CS3 and found this on another website…Go into ~/Library/Application Support/Adobe/Flash CS3/en/Configuration and trash the workspacelayout.xml file.
Restart Flash and reset your workspace. The problem seems to be moving the Output window. You can reconfigure the palettes as much as you want, but the minute you move the Output window, Flash CS3 locks up when you quit. Haven’t tested this fix with MM though.
NOTE: For Mac users, not sure if Win users are experiencing same difficulties
