Problem with Fireworks in WinXP - GoFuckYourself.com

Gutterboy · 01-23-2003, 04:42 PM

When I try to batch images in Fireworks 4 on my new XP box, the "add all" button on the first batch processing configuration window won't work. The images display ok, but for some reason they aren't registering, because when I click "add all" all that appears in the lower box is the directory folder. When I try processing the directory name I get the "could not run the script: This operation requires an active document" message.

To get it to work I have to go to the image folder then double click on each of the images individually to get them into the lower box, which is a pain in the ass when doing 100's at a time.

Anyone know of a fix or having the same problem?

I never could get fireworks batch to work in XP. Maybe I need to upgrade to a newer version

I get that problem with 98SE - it usually goes away with a reboot

play some with video card settings
especially if your card's based on nvidia chips

lower down acceleration, turn on/off 32-bit mode etc

What does my video card have to do with Fireworks recognizing .jpg files?

Some programs work better when you pay for 'em.

So I should find someone who actually paid for the software to download it from? Tough, but it might work.

And some people are so bored that they have nothing better to do than make pointless and innacurate remarks on BB's.

Sure, I'm bored. And yes, it was mostly pointless. Innacurate, though? I dunno, I find a lot of things work better off of an original CD, with a manual and an unmodified installed-- and access to tech support-- than they do when downloaded off of Kazaa.

If anyone is interested, problem solved by installing Fireworks MX
