Using BOTH Flexbuilder 3 AND FlashBuilder on the same machine

I have been using the standalone Flexbuilder3 for a while now on my mac without a problem. While I debate whether its worth the hefty upgrade to FlashBuilder (or to switch to FDT) I'd like t开发者_开发问答o have both applications installed and accessible on the same machine. According to the official docs, this should be no problem. However, in reality, when I install FlashBuilder, I am no longer able to launch Flexbuilder3. It crashes, hangs on launch. And no, I am not trying to run both at the same ti me.

If I de-install FlashBuilder, no problem, FB3 runs fine....

I too had problems. See my SO question on this topic.

In the end, our Windows 7 machines arrived and I decided to try to do everything in FlashBuilder 4. This has its own problems, especially when using SDK 3.3 on some projects, but that's another topic.
