My apologies if this topic has a better place to be posted.

I’m using Flash MX 2004 7.2 in Mac OS Tiger (10.4.2). I use both English and Japanese keyboard layouts in my OS.

Every time I open Flash MX 2004, the default keyboard layout turns to Japanese. This only happens in Flash MX - in Dreamweaver MX and Fireworks MX, the keyboard layout defaults to English no problem.

Has anyone encountered this issue before?

Any suggestions would be appreciated.

TIA
