I am on a MAC OSX 10.4 and DreamweaverCS3 has started crashing no matter what i do. I might be open for 30 secs. before the program crashes. It all started when i was messing around with the Spry function & CSS properties - now i can’t even maintain my site. I have always had little issues with crashing but this is ridiculous!

The solution is simple, and was posted on Monday 29 October. Delete WinFileCache-********.dat in your Configuration folder.

I confirm, the problem is solved by setting back the clock to some day in October.
DW CS3 does not crash when starting with new pages, it also does not crash when one opens simple recordset pages. It crashes when complex design and recordset based pages are opened.
I am not sure if it has to do something with WINXP, adobe hasn’t been stable in this transition process, so God knows, hope they come up with a solution soon.

Interestingly I have not been affected by this bug, I was working in Dreamweaver when the clocks changed and for several hours afterwards so maybe that has affected whether the bug strikes or not ?
