Thanks simon, if the /etc/hosts file has 127.0.0.1 set as localhost, perhaps this is the same solution? Nevertheless, I'll try anything... but I'm not sure how to do this (as the link states):
Right click on the Flash/Flex application, select Debugger. Select the option “Other Machine” for the question “Where is the debugger or host application running?” Where exactly does this right click occur? ----- Original Message ----- From: "simon gladman" <[email protected]> To: [email protected] Sent: Wednesday, February 12, 2014 7:53:47 AM Subject: Re: new Mac machine, running Flex application sticks at 57% I feel for you - I have this occasionally and it drives me crazy.
