AutoCAD Inventor :: 2012 Hanging At The Splash Screen?
Jun 8, 2012
We have an engineer running Inventor 2012 (Premium Suite) on a Windows 7, 64-bit machine.
He's experiencing an issue where once he starts Inventor, it doesnt proceed past the splash screen.
If I then log onto his machine, Inventor loads fine without a problem.
If this engineer then logs onto another workstation, Inventor works fine for him on that machine.
I have tried deleting the .cas file, no joy; this is a stand-alone installation.
I also reported this to our re-seller since we have a support agreement with them - they recommended a system restore; we felt that this was a lame reply since they didnt even ask for any log files.
They also recommended a registry 'hack' - the solution in the link below was recommended.

We tried this, the problem still persists.
We also created a new profile for this user, still no success.
I get a feeling that a full re-installation might be the only way forward bar a system restore.
According to our subscription support engineer, there are chances that this issue might not be resolved even with a full re-installation.

I'm a school teacher in the PLTW program that uses Inventor extensively in my classroom. Our district operates under a 125 seat license. The issue I've run into is on my personal computer (Windows Vista, x64) and is therefore outside the realm of the usual IT guy's duties. The Inventor software was installed on my laptop by the PLTW training staff during my summer session. I *think* it is a stand alone install of the program.
What happens is after I launch Autodesk Inventor, I can see the splash screen, and the inventor.exe task appears in the task manager, however after a few seconds, the splash screen disappears and the program does not launch. There is no error message.
This is confusing since until quite recently I am sure that Inventor was working hunky dory. Also, all the other Autodesk programs seems to function normally (Fusion, Design and Review)
I've tried a repair and reinstall, but the problem still persists. Also, I updated the install with SP 1, but this had no effect either.
I have recently updated my display drivers (ATI Radeon), however, I tried reverting back to the older drivers and still the problem persists, so I don't think it is graphics driver related

I do tech-support work in a school district that is part of the Project Lead the Way program. As part of this program, we have 2 full labs of machines (25+ each) that are licensed for using Inventor 2012. Each year, this program supplies an updated version of Inventor, so each year I have to make a new Ghost image for those labs and apply it. All the machines are identical, and I image them with the same Ghost image file. This year, I'm having some major difficulty as follows:
On seemingly random machines with seemingly random student-level access accounts, the Inventor splash screen will come up when the kids launch the program…and then it will just immediately dump them back to the desktop with no error message whatsoever. At first I thought it was a rights issue, but on some machines it does the same thing when I log in with my administrator-level account.
These machines were imaged with Ghost, with Inventor 2012 installed, then activated on standalone licenses when the kids log in the first time (at least in theory). The machines are running Windows XP SP3, on an AD2008 domain. Sometimes you can log into a machine with a different user account where a kid has had this problem, and Inventor will open right up. That would seem to indicate that it's an account/permissions issue, but if you then take that kid and move him to a different (identical) PC in the lab, he'll be able to open Inventor just fine.
I've spent a good 2-3 hours Googling this one, digging into Autodesk's knowledge base and just looking through different forums, but I've had no luck isolating any factor that might cause this behavior so far. I even went so far as to do a full uninstall using the Autodesk uninstall utility on one affected machine. When I reinstalled from the disc, the behavior persisted. I also tried downloading Service Pack 1 for the software, which apparently just came out on August 31st. Installing the Service Pack didn't fix the issue either. I see nothing suspicious in the system logs that point out an Autodesk-related error.

We've got Inventor running on about 12 Win7 x64 machines in a lab and recently one of them has started acting up. Inventor will not get past the splash screen. The Windows event log only says "app hang."
I've tried uninstalling Inventor and manually removing any trace of it I could find from the C: drive and the registry and reinstalling to no luck.

Just installed product design suite 2013 without issue, however when I try to run Inventor 2013 it hangs at the splash screen.
The only way to exit is to kill the Inventor process. Other applications with in the design suite run fine ACAD, Fusion etc.
I did read a post about a windows security update causing this, but I do not have the offending update loaded so it can't be this.
Windows 7 64 bit Dell Precision

I was wondering if there is a way to change the image for the splash screen? I've attached a screen shot. I'd like to edit the screen to show a company logo.

When I try to start Inventor is attempts to open and shows up in the active processes list for a few seconds.
Sometimes it will quit before the splash screen appears and sometimes a split second after it appears. No error messages or computer lag, it just simply quits. I'll list the steps I've taken so far. (Windows 7 64 bit)
Deleted the Cascadeinfo.cas file
I've had an error when my 3d connexion mouse trys to start so I uninstalled the drivers.
IT guy could open Inventor from his login on my computer but still not with mine.
Deleted Autodesk folder in the AppData folder and deleted the Cascadeinfo.cas again.
Did a "Repair" of Inventor.
Did a "Re-Install" of Inventor.
Nothing has worked yet and the only advice I'm finding is in regards to deleting the Cascadeinfo.cas file.
My thoughts are that the key to this problem is the fact that it works for other users on this machine. I just don't know what it is or how to fix it.

I have a user who is disabled. He can only use a mouse and cannot use a keyboard. For keyboard inputs, he uses the On-Screen Keyboard built-in to Windows 7. He has used many versions of Autodesk Inventor... since 2010.
Normally, the On-Screen Keyboard will always "stay on top" of all other programs and windows. With Inventor 2012, the On-Screen Keyboard disappears when you press certain buttons in Inventor. In my screencast, the On-Screen Keyboard disappears when you complete an Extrude function and also when you Fillet. I've also seen it disappear when during a Chamfer, but this is not in the screencast.
This is extremely annoying for a user who can only use a mouse, as he has to constantly bring back the On-Screen Keyboard by click on the taskbar icon. It's also inconsistent with what Autodesk did in the past with previous versions of Inventor.
This is a screencast of Inventor 2012 w/ SP1 and demonstrates the disappearing On-Screen Keyboard [URL]

Photoshop CS freezes on splash screen. I have been using this since CS first came out without problems. Now it will not go beyond the screen and locks up with 100% CPU usage. Athlon Barton 2500 w/2G Corsair Ram, 2 - 160G Seagate 7200 HD's configured with Raid +1. All other programs work normally...just PSCS
Should add that I have uninstalled CS and reinstalled it. I have also removed each 1G stick of Ram and tried it...then swaped the other stick...

I am trying to make a 'splash' screen for a GUI. However, the picture I am using pops up with the corners being visible; I do not want that. I would like them to be transparent. I have tried 'Export Transparent Image'

about three weeks ago, maya 2014 started being stuck at the splash screen saying "Maya loading" and doing nothing. I also tried running it with admin permissions, repaired it, uninstalled and deleted AppdataLocal-and-RoamingAutodesk, then installed again. I also tried installing Maya 2013, to see if that starts up: it doesn't. EDIT: I also tried restarting that license program The only thing I can call a reason is: It randomly asked me to license and stuff, after i accidently opened it twice. Then I 'clicked through' (I did read it though) and killed the second process. After that it stopped working.

I am using Photoshop CS3 on a PowerPC Mac running OS X 10.4.11. Some days ago, I attempted to run photoshop by clicking the icon on the dock.The splash screen loads fine but immediately as the splash screen loads photoshop closes automatically. I have already tried the following:
1. Rename TWAIN file by adding the ~ in front of it
2. Deleting photoshop preferences by using Command+Shift+Option .

I have been using Paint Shop Pro for around fifteen years now and have always been very happy with each new version. I tended to upgrade every other version and have been using X2 for the last couple of years. With the recent announcement of Corel's service pack to fix some of the problems of X4, I decided to upgrade.
I uninstalled X2 and rebooted ready to install my shiny new copy of X4. All went well until I tried to start it up. The splash screen appears and starts to load up the components but every time it gets to "Initializing Palletes" it crashes and I get the "Paint Shop Pro has stopped working" and the options to close or go online and check for a solution!
I've tried uninstalling it, repairing the install, and also uninstalling it using the RevoUnInstaller as recommended by df but it didn't work. I also tried installing SP1 to see if it worked but didn't.
I can't even get this thing to start up at the moment. I need it for a few projects I'm working on and am beginning to wish I had left well alone!
I'm also dreading trying to re-install X2 as I can see that having problems if X4 has screwed up any deep-seated settings.

I'm running Revit 2013 on Parallels 8 (Windows 7 x64bit) on a Macbook Pro, it has been working fine for over a year untill today as it freezes on the startup splash screen and the 'SECSplashwnd' becomes non-responsive. Nothing significant has been changed as it was working fine 8 hours ago.
I have tried repairing the Revit installation, restarting windows and mac, uninstalling Microsoft Framework and reinstalling. Problem Details:
Description:A problem caused this program to stop interacting with Windows.

Each time a student try to launch Revit 2010 he gets the splashscreen and then nothing. The application stops lauching ? When we have a look to the Revit log files we can see this error :
' 0:< Initial VM measure: 1934 MB available, 37 MB used
'C 15-Dec-2010 09:46:54.844; 0:< started recording journal file
' Build: 20090917_1515
Dim Jrn
Set Jrn = CrsJournalScript
' 0:< DBG_WARN: API Context is inoperable. Revit will not run correctly.: line 427 of .MFCCRS.cpp.
'C 15-Dec-2010 09:46:54.906; 0:< ->InitInstance
So if we want to work with Revit we have to install RunAs and start Revit through RunAs with administrator rights.Students have a mandatory Active Directory profile and even if we give "power user" rights we get the same problem.

I have been using Revit 2013 for a few weeks now. When Revit opens the splash screen appears and the programme loads fine, I then open the file I want to work on. This is when the error message of an "unrecoverable error" occuring.
This used to happen now and then until today which does not open it all. I have seen solutions on other posts but it still doesn't seem to address the problem.

I went to startup LR5.2 (local) and it all of a sudden did not get past the splash screen. It hung with a "Not Responding" in the title bar. I went to a backup file and the program seemed to operate normally. I did another backup to make sure I saved a good catalog. Today the same thing happened. I again went back to the backup and that did not seem to work. I have tried a number of things including deleting all of the preview files and upgrading to version 5.3.
Up until the other day LR5.2 was operating without any problems. One more thing. I finally got it to work by deleteling all of the preview files and going back to my backup. It starts up and seems to be ok; however, when I close the program and try to re-start .. it again does not get beyond the splash screen.
I have subscribed to the CC version of PS + LR but I am only using PS - have not downloaded LR5 for CC.
I did increase the RAW space to 30 Gig and there is 119 Gig of space on the hard drive. I use an i5 processor and run the 64 bit version of LR.

I have found that with windows 7 64 bit (not sure about other versions) when inventor 2012 pro is installed, it causes windows safe mode to reboot at logon screen after like 3-4 seconds. I have found the cause to be a window service that it inventor installs called "Autodesk Moldflow Inventor Tool Suite Integration 2012 Job Manager". I disable this service via "msconfig" tool and windows safe mode works ok.

I just loaded CS3 Photo Shop and Illustrator onto my new 15" Retna MacBook Pro running Mavericks. The programs begin to start up but get hung up at the splash screen.
There's nothing I can do except Force Quit the application. All of the top menu items are grayed out rendering the programs useless.
I've attached a screen shot of what it looks like when Photo Shop loads. How do I resolve this? I've let the applications just sit for over 20 minutes but nothing happens. They're just stuck.
