On my old desktop computer with Windows XP installed, all of Adobe CS4 works. However, I installed CS4 on Parallels on my macbook pro, and Flash refuses to start up. I had had some trouble with Photoshop, but I think I just upped the RAM I was giving Parallels to 4G. When I try to run Flash, the computer's fan starts working hard and the task manager shows that Flash.exe is using 50% of my two CPUs I gave Parallels, but nothing happens. It stays at 50% CPU usage until I stop the process-- it doesn't even show up as a task. I didn't think this was the problem, but I tried giving Parallels 4 CPUs and it still didn't work, it just showed Flash using 25% of course. Does anyone know what might be keeping it from working? Perhaps the Parallels video card? I have searched but I haven't seen anyone else with this problem; all their problems are with Photoshop. I could spend $350 for CS5.5 (student discount) so that I can use it right on my Mac, but I'd really rather not at this point.
i believe i have already answered.... try to move back to 1 CPU, increase RAM, and check ADOBE forum - i have faced with adobe problems several times and it was aways not Parallels connected issue
