For starters, you can try either of these two documents:
Troubleshoot system errors or freezes | Adobe software on Mac OS
Troubleshoot system errors or freezes | Adobe software on Windows
These troubleshooters are pretty comprehensive and will point you in the right direction once you're able to target the issue.

    Says another application has it open. i un install and reinstalled but it still will not open.. Do not know why. I'm using windows 7

    You catalog is probably still locked-most likely from a bad shut down of your previous Lightroom session.
    Search for a file with the same name as your catalog but a .LOCK extension. Delete this file. Lightroom should open normally.

    Basic troubleshooting from the User's Guide is reset, restart, restore (first from backup then as new).  Has any of this been tried?

    Hi M0M1!
    I have an article for you that seems to describe your issue and can provide some helpful troubleshooting steps for this issue:
    iTunes for Windows Vista, Windows 7, or Windows 8: Fix unexpected quits or launch issues
    http://support.apple.com/kb/ts1717
    Specifically, you will want to focus on this section of the article:
    User-specific troubleshooting
    If you experience the issue in one particular user account, the suggestions below may resolve the issue. Before proceeding, you'll need to make hidden files and folder visible in Windows using steps 1-5.
    Remove iTunes Preference files. Some of the files that iTunes stores settings and preferences in may be unusable. iTunes saves its preferences in two folders. Move one of them to the desktop and test to see if the issue persists. If it does, move it back and remove the second folder. The locations for the preference folders are:
    c:\Users\username\AppData\Local\Apple Computer\iTunes
    c:\Users\username\AppData\Roaming\Apple Computer\iTunes
    Create a new iTunes Library.
    Hold the Shift key while opening iTunes. You'll be asked to choose an iTunes library.
    Choose Create Library.
    In the following window, select a location to save the new iTunes Library.
    Click Save. iTunes will open the new library. After you close iTunes, you can always select the original library by holding the Shift key while opening iTunes.
    Recreate your iTunes Library. If your iTunes library has become unusable, rebuilding it may resolve the issue.
    Check for issues with content files. Sometimes an audio file can cause iTunes to quit unexpectedly or stop responding when it's analyzing gapless playback information. To determine which file may be causing the issue, follow the steps below:
    Quit iTunes.
    Navigate to the iTunes folder:
    Windows Vista: c:\users\username\Music\iTunes
    Windows 7 and Windows 8: c:\users\username\My Music\iTunes
    Move the iTunes Library.itl file to your desktop.
    Open iTunes. You shouldn't see any content in iTunes.
    Choose File > Add Folder to Library.
    Navigate to the folder where your music is located:
    Windows Vista: c:\users\username\Music\iTunes\iTunes Media
    Windows 7 and Windows 8: c:\users\username\My Music\iTunes\iTunes Media
    Choose an artist, album, or song to add to the library.
    Wait for iTunes to successfully add the item to your library and perform the gapless playback scan.
    If successful, continue adding songs to your library.
    If there is an issue with one of your files, you'll notice your issue reappear after you add it to the library. You should repeat these steps, being careful not to add the files that caused the issue.

  • Can not open my web page?

    Installed my new 2T unit 5 days ago, it was fine till this afternoon. I can not open web page or connect to internet. (wired or wirelessly)
    No issue with my cable modem as i tested by pluging wire direct from the modem.
    "Green" light in front is OK, i have to unplug power and plug power back in after 10 sec to restore the unit to function again.
    I read about the new time capsule will loss connections over time, wonder if anyone has experienced this problem in the past?

  • Can not open a message in E 90

    Hello to everyone!!!
    my friend have a problem with nokia E 90 becouse he can't open a sms in inbox. He said me that he see a sign like this + (red colour) just above the message.
    thanks everyone in advance.

    Please be informed that :
    There's no messaging app which locates under Settings (either Ultra Stamina Mode or usual Mode) so I can't follow your 2 solutions.
    ==========================================
    I followed your link above, as result is
    -I ensured the lock screen / notification bar doesn’t indicate “no service” when the device has coverage.
    -I cannot "close-all-button" in the activity menu because lollipop 5.0.2 update doesn’t provide the button for my Xperia Z1.
    -I did as this advice "Unblocked devices with server policies (such as Exchange Active Sync for e-mail), to enable the new Lollipop lock-screen notifications"
    -I ensured the LED light is lit across all sound modes - and no longer offset by “silent”
    -My internal memory is 5 gb so no need to move a content to SD card.
    However, as Sony and Android said "
    Improved messaging functionality in Ultra stamina mode – some conversations could not be opened before in Ultra stamina mode" then I think your team no need to tell a user that Messaging app is available for Ultra Stamina Mode before I activate the mode (it makes me confused). Some conversations or other should not have affecting to Ultra Stamina Mode. In the future, if some of an app doesn't work peffectly or your team does not on any app, could you please kindly don't push it and tell a user that it is available in the Ultra Stamina Mode?. Thanks

  • I can not open the history even of today and see

    5/8/10
    Dear ladies and gentlemen,
    • I thank you all each and every person, ladies and gentleman who are connected with Mozilla Firefox in any manner and who have contributed for its development and any other who is in any way even concerned and every well wisher of Mozilla. My good wishes for all of them and for their work that it has become so popular and every one of them has laboured selflessly and without any money angle for that and that is the best thing. Such selfless work must be appreciated by each and all.
    • My earlier suggestion for accepting cheques from those who like me do not have any cr. card has still not been accepted.
    • You please incorporate features from other good programmes as these are still not there in FireFox and I am using only this since when I first installed it and I do not intend to use any other but these features as I remember were available few years back are still not there in Mozilla so today there should be many more features which can be incorporated in Firefox.
    • When the connection is on but not opened i.e. the connection has been switched on but not opened i.e. the modem lights are on and not off then if I go back to a page opened then the Firefox shows loading problem but if I switch off the modem then I can access that very same page. This should be taken care of so that even if I switch on the modem but the connection is not on even then I should be able to see the page 1 or 2 or many pages backwards.
    • Then I can not open the history even of today and see that page whereas earlier I could click any history page and it showed even if it was 5 days old (which is my setting) and I have not changed any setting.
    • I also thank the all add-on creators because I have installed very few but even then these are very useful.
    • I would also suggest that you incorporate these add-ons in the FireFox itself for example I suggested many moons back that let there be a system of any number of tabs being opened (and a few more suggestions) and it is available as add –on in tab mix plus which I have now installed.
    • I also request to everyone concerned to give his ideas as to what other features can be incorporated in Firefox and these suggestions be on your website and after a certain number of well wishers and users select the idea you please either develop it yourselves or any well wisher can do it and then it can be incorporated in the Firefox.
    • I also give you my suggestion which is not available presently to my knowledge in the browser or add-ons this is that if I move a window in tab mix plus then it is always in a window for each tab but instead of that my suggestion is that I should be able to move any no. of tabs or any other tab to one particular window only and that too in any manner I like in any sequence like at a particular No. of tab say 15th etc.
    • I also feel presently having some problem that when I shut down the computer after save and quit pages that are there are not reopened. Loading problem in those pages appears I do not know the reason but Firefox should be able to show all the last page/pages/window/windows I was perusing after I saved and quit.
    Thanking you,
    Best wishes for all of you.
    Yours sincerely,
    DS

    Hi,
    Please provide more details about your computer along with the graphics card. Also, A log file might help identify the cause of the crash. Please right-click 'My Computer', select "Manage," look under 'Event Viewer->Windows Logs->Application' to see if there's an event there from Premiere Pro. If so, copy the contents of that log and paste them here.

  • I can't open Pages app on iMac

    Hi all, I can't open Pages app on my computer. These are the specs:
    iMac 2.8 GHz Intel Core i5, 4GB, 2/3 of a TB free storage capacity,
    Yosemite version 10.10.2
    Originally I had iWork 09 and since I've been updating from the app store since they are available in there. Now version 5.5.2
    I wanted to create a new document and explore the templates available for it but when I click the icon of the Pages app or the name in the Finder apps list, it won't open, instead it opens another window for me to choose what I want to open -see pic below-, and as you can see from the light gray color I can't choose the app from there.
    I open the app store to see if I needed to update it and it is already done. So I don't know what to do... Can anybody help please? Thanks

    If one clicks that extreme left icon, the Favorites panel disappears, leaving the Application view we see posted. Additionally, the OP has the
    Finder Preferences ▸ Advanced ▸ All My Files checked, instead of their login directory (house icon).
    This just adds to the mayhem. Once Finder Preferences is fixed, then the OP can click Applications, and from that lengthy menu, select their login directory, or Documents.
    Why the OP did not just click New Document and review the bundled templates, is a question mark. Or click Launchpad in the Dock, to launch Pages.

  • How can I open all the tabs saved in a sub folder of the bookmark menu simultaneously in a single click/command ?

    I have saved some of the related tabs in a common sub folder in the bookmarks list and whenever i have to open this tabs always i have to open them individually coz the 'open all in new tabs' option is not available for subfolder, so is there any command or click available from which i can directly open all the saved tabs of a subfolder simultaneously in one single attempt ? using vaio laptop, windows 7 basic, firefox version 6.0.2 !

    yes i do that on my desktop but i dont have middle click option on laptop and even in the right click context the ''open all in tabs'' option is desplayed but is in light color i.e. not functional. Is this a problem with windows 7 or missing plugin or add on could help or extension of some sort ? please help !

  • Can't open or rename folder... but not a permission issue

    This one has me puzzled, and I can't figure it.
    I have a fair background in unix and command line interfaces, so I've tried all of the usual fixes with chmod, chown, chgrp and everything else I can throw at it without luck.  It's not a locked/hidden file, and it doesn't have any extended attributes.  Tried repairing permissions.  No luck.  Drive verifies OK.
    The problem folder (one of many) came from an Active Directory mount via my network at my office.  On the server (and on the folder when I copy to my desktop), the folder is a pale, light-blue colour and can't be opened or modified from the finder.
    I can use a terminal window to get into the folder and access it via command line (works fine).  Can move and rename it via terminal (again, no problem), but always light-blue and can't do anything with it from the Finder.  Opening with "Get Info" shows that I own the file, and that I have read/write permission (and not locked).
    Even if I copy the folder to a FAT32 USB stick, it exhibits the same behaviour where I can't open or modify it.  There is no problem accessing the folder on a PC.  If I duplicate the folder on a PC, the duplicated folder works fine in the finder, and is normal (however the original is light blue and can't be changed).
    Totally stumped.  Anyone have ideas?

    What version of the software is this? Did you update it?

  • Can't open up icloud in settings on ipad?

    I used to be able to open up iclouds on my ipad, now it is a light grey and am unable to.  At the same time my contacts are missing and i can't open up accounts which is in settings - mail - accounts?
    I have the 'new ipad 3'.

    If you have restrictions enabled it can prevent access to your Icloud and account settings, in settings>restrictions>allow changes you will need to untick this option , this will allow access to and changes to be made to your icloud and accounts, when you have done this you can simply apply the restriction again if you want to, this is a security measure to prevent changes being made without your consent .

  • InDesign Crashed and Now Can't Open the File It Crashed On

    I had a file open from a G4 server. I left and came back and my computer had gone to sleep losing the connection to the server. InDesign crashed with that file open and now I can't open the file at all I keep getting this error message:
    Cannot open the document [document name]. You may not have permission or the document may be open already. For multi-user access, close the file and then lock it using the File > Get Info command in the Finder.
    The document is not open, on the server I forced the permissions to be all read and write for everyone, I dumped my InDesign preferences. What else can I do? Has anyone had this problem before? (I am connected to the server now that I'm trying to reopen it.)
    When I started InDesign after it crashed, it asked me to recover the file and I tried to but it didn't open anything (I was not connected to the server at that point which may have screwed things up) There are two files in the InDesign Recovery folder one called 'RecoveryData' and one called 'DBTmp239689402256' both of which don't open in indesign.

    You may want to back up your work on a regular basis. Check out Retrospect or Retrospect Light. Lots of computers come with the light version so you may already have it.

    Try telling students who barely have two nickels to rub together these days that they have to outlay $400-500 dollars every year to be able to keep up to date with the programs at their schools. I can barely get these kids to package their files properly and now they have to remember to export their files to idml and remember to put them in their folders before they copy it onto their external hard drive to bring it home to work on. Is it really necessary to update every bloody year and charge these kids so much to upgrade. And this time only for a .5 upgrade?  A lot of these kids have parents that are sacrificing every thing to pay for their kids college education. What message is adobe sending to these kids? That the study of graphic design is only for the rich who can afford to upgrade every year. Have a heart in this economy.
    Your points about the hardship of expensive learning materials, and the extra work involved in saving to IDML, are all valid.
    If/when online applications come into common use, some of the issues may fade away, because the newest and older versions will always be available for a user to choose from.
    In the meantime, perhaps some of these suggestions will be useful:
    * Adobe's volume licensing plan (VLP, I think) and transactional licensing plan (TLP) have been mentioned in this forum, in regard to the option of buying licenses for earlier releases. My thought is that your school could "freeze" their installations at a useful recent release, to extend the useful life of a student's own purchased educational copy. Search Google for terms like "InDesign volume license transactional license" without quotes. Also, perhaps someone who knows more about these options will jump in here.
    * Unless there are compelling class needs for the new features in new releases, there's no need to upgrade. Depending on the course's level, some features wouldn't be needed for lower-level classes; for the higher-level classes, use the newer software.
    * If possible, allow students to install DropBox, or other  online storage software, on the school computers, so they can save files remotely, and access them from any Internet connection. This won't eliminate the saving to IDML step, but it can eliminate the copy-to-transport-media step, simplifying things a bit. There may be security and other IT issues here to be worked out.
    * For students who intend to enter the design career, it may be less expensive to buy an upgradeable non-educational license, or even - shudder - a subscription. Subscriptions, I believe, can be activated and deactivated for specific periods, like rental cars, so, for example, if/when a student graduates and takes a job where the employer provides the software, or the student doesn't need the software for a semester or quarter, the subscription can be idled, and there's no cost. If the student becomes an independent designer, the subscription can be reactivated when there's work to be done. I believe Bob Levine once posted a comparison, on this forum, of cost-to-license InDesign, for subscriptions vs. other licensing methods. Bob?
    Sometimes folks compare the ongoing cost of software and upgrades to other industries and careers that don't seem to have the same issues. However, the tools needed in many industries and careers are no longer so static, as in the past. Carpenters who worked with manual tools could use hammers, screwdrivers, etc., until they wore out or broke, but  the introduction of electric nail drivers, screwdrivers, and drills forced production carpenters to upgrade their tools. Perhaps the increased output of mechanized tools balanced their increased cost. Draftsmen's triangles, T-squares, pens, etc., don't need upgrades, but there have been about 20 AutoCAD software releases for them to keep up with.
    Recently I had to replace my 1991 stick-shift car with a "new-to-me" 2005 model. It's like all the newer cars I've rented at times - automatic everything. I've done most maintenance and repair on the old one, and I always carried tools in case something broke on the road, and I could fix it myself. The new car is a disaster; the only fixing and maintenance I might possibly do is change a flat tire, add fuel, window-washer juice, oil, power brake and steering fluids, wash the exterior, vacuum the interior, set radio-station presets, and change the battery in the remote-control device that opens and locks the doors, and activates the entire computerized beast. There's nothing for me to do but open the doors, get in, turn on the engine, and aim in some direction.
    Mechanics, whose basic-level wrenches and ignition-timing strobe lights were capable of doing an amazing range of tasks over decades of model changes, now need annual expensive software upgrades for the computerized tools that troubleshoot and maintain the modern rolling computers that have replaced cars as some of us knew them.
