Joseph, Your problem sounds a lot like when I deleted the wrong maker.ini file from my system.
There is a "main" maker.ini that contains the licensing # and if FM can't read it, my FM crashed IIRC. I tried moving the local user copy into its position, but without the license #, it didn't help. Bottom line: reinstalling may be the fastest solution for you. -Matt _____ Matt Sullivan GRAFIX Training 714 960-6840 714 585-2335 cell / <mailto:7145852335 at vtext.com> txt/sms skype: mattrsullivan <http://www.grafixtraining.com/> http://www.grafixtraining.com <http://blogs.roundpeg.com/> http://blogs.roundpeg.com <http://www.linkedin.com/in/mattrsullivan> http://www.linkedin.com/in/mattrsullivan <http://twitter.com/mattrsullivan> http://twitter.com/mattrsullivan <http://twitter.com/roundpeginc> http://twitter.com/roundpeginc _____ From: tcs-users at googlegroups.com [mailto:tcs-us...@googlegroups.com] On Behalf Of Joseph Lorenzini Sent: Tuesday, April 20, 2010 7:52 AM To: framers at lists.frameusers.com; TCS-Users at googlegroups.com Subject: [TCS Users] FrameMaker 9 Crashing and Unusable Hi all, I am having some major FrameMaker problems. I've been running FrameMaker 9 on my system for a year now without any problem. Today, I came into work and tried to open FrameMaker. In the loading screen, it reaches the localization info and then it crashes. I restarted my computer and the same thing happens. The only change to my system in the last couple days was an acrobat update provided by adobe. Is it possible that could be the cause? This is really distressing. I can literally get no work done until this issue is fixed. Any help would be greatly appreciated. I am considering the following: 1) Try a system restore. 2) If that doesn't work, reinstall FrameMaker, though that seems a bit extreme. Here are my system specs.
