CC & PS WON'T LAUNCH / BRIDGE WON'T LET ME EDIT IN CAMERA RAW

I'm on Mac OS X. First problem I encountered today was that Bridge would not let me edit in Camera Raw. It gave me this warning:
Camera Raw editing is not enabled.
Camera Raw editing requires that a qualifying product
has been launched at least once to enable this feature
I tried launching PS and my short cut bounces in my dock like it is going to open, then nothing happens. Same thing when I try to launch CC or the Uninstall manager. So I found on a different forum to run the Adobe Cleaner and it did the same thing. Have many projects I have to complete for my job. Thanks in advance for any help!

...Turns out the ONE obvious thing I hadn't tried was to go into the CC App itself, into preferences, then log out of my Adobe account and back in again - fixed the issue!
I couldn't believe its so simple and feel a bit stupid - but I had completely uninstalled the main CC App then re-downloaded it from Adobe, it downloaded already logged in as I was logged in on the website.
I hope this helps someone else with the same issue, as I had scoured the forums and the Adobe FAQ pages and hadn't found any solution. I stumbled across this whilst waiting for an agent to answer on the live chat!

  • My cs5 won't let me upgrade to camera raw 7.1 , only to 6.7 ..

    any other solutions for openning .NEF files ??

    Download and install the latest DNG converter. You can use that to create digital negative copies of your images that will work with your version of Camera Raw.
    Adobe - Adobe Camera Raw and DNG Converter : For Windows
    Adobe - Adobe Camera Raw and DNG Converter : For Macintosh
    You will want the latest version. Just make sure you set the compatibility options in accordance with your version of Camera Raw.

    Actually, it may be more to it. I just wasted good 7 hours on the issue: I transferred a big external drive from old WinXp system to my new W7 system, and faced the ownership mayhem ever since.
    No matter what I did to the Volume Owner, Files Owner and attributes, recursive Directory Ownership jobs enduring tens of minutes at a time, nothing helped really.
    Because you might have one more issue:
    Use "Folder Options", either from Tools menu in Explorer, if menu shows, or via Control Panel.
    Click on View tab, and find the box for "Hide protected operating system files (recommended)". Ignore that recommendation, uncheck.
    Go now to the root directory of your troubled drive and you will see a hidden file "System Volume Information". This can be the "bad guy." Ensure that you have access to that file using the Properties / Security tab in a customary fashion! In my case that file was "padlocked", a small lock icon was placed over the folder icon to indicate that.
    Only once I changed that, I was able to access the LR catalogs as a regular user. And only than LR was finally able to access existing previews and to display the grid image icons!
    Ugrh.... Windows, the "personal computer system" is a mess, a labyrinth of convoluted intertwined dependencies, maybe created in competing departments and piled up atop of each other in an unseemly fashion. Compared to Unix and its derivatives it is a nightmare, which is a part of our lives for decades already.
    I think that all the Apple users are now double-happy to have made the transition, when they see such "problems."

  • Having a problem moving a text document from Photoshop to Illustrator.. Won't let me edit the text

    Hi there,
    I'm a complete technophobe so the answer to this could be quite obvious. I had to create a text using photoshop because of the inside of the text... i.e using a lobster font and it was pink glitter inside it so to give a girly effect.. It's for a college asignment.
    I have to use illustrator CS6 to put that text on a b/ground I already made in Illustrator but the .psd doc won't let me edit it in illustrator, it's almost like a PDF. Help!
    I hope it's not too confusing to understand, thanks in advance.

    Erica,
    is there a simpler way of explaining that?
    And I feared it was too easy to understand.
    You may, in front of the overall background (which you may lock or hide):
    1) Create a background with the appearance you wish to apply to the letters, such as a solid cpolour, a gradient or other clolour transition, and some pink glitter in front of it, you may Group all this for convenience; and you may use raster artwork (maybe from Photoshop) if you like;
    2) With the Type Tool create the live Type on top of 1), you may move and size it to fit (roughly);
    3) Select 1) and 2) and Object>Clipping Mask>Make; 2) will become the (invisible) Clipping Path showing the parts of 1) that are behind it and hide the rest.
    As mentioned, you may Direct Select 1) or 2) and edit or move them about relative to the background and each other.

  • I recently moved my itunes library. Itunes deleted a lot of artist and album info and album art. Now it won't let me edit the info to correct it. Any advice on to correct this?

    I recently bought a new Asus laptop and moved my itunes to it. All of my files are stored on an external hard drive. In the process of importing my files into itunes on the new laptop, some artist and album info has been deleted. A lot of album art is missing as well. I attempted to correct the missing info, but now itunes won't let me edit any track, artist or album info. Any idea what the problem is and how I can fix it? Thanks.

    You can't use your account's balance for gifting, you can only use a credit card - your balance can only be used to buy content for yourself. Until you pay what you owe iTunes then you won't be able to download any items from the store on that account.
    If you haven't got a valid credit card then you can try contacting iTunes support and see if they can cancel the gift or take what you owe them from your balance: http://www.apple.com/support/itunes/contact/ - click on Contact iTunes Store Support on the right-hand side of the page

  • InDesign won't let me edit my document every time I save

    For about a month now, every time I press ctrl + s to save my documents in InDesign it seems to lock all components of my document and won't let me edit it unless I close and open it again multiple times.
    I'm running InDesign on Windows 8 and I know it's been known to be more glitchy on PCs than Macs, but is anyone else having this problem/know how to fix it?

    My gut instinct is that ID actually is a lot more trouble-free on Windows 8 than it is on Yosemite, based on what we see here, but that's got nothing to do with your problem.

  • All pics loaded onto iphoto or preview show up but won't let me edit. Thanks, Woody

    Hey everyone,
    Pics loaded into iphoto or preview show up in the programs and my desktp, but won't let me edit.
    Thanks, Woody

    How are you trying to edit?
    There are 9 different versions of iPhoto and they run on 9 different versions of the Operating System. The tricks and tips for dealing with issues vary depending on the version of iPhoto and the version of the OS. So to get help you need to give as much information as you can. Include things like:
    - What version of iPhoto.
    - What version of the Operating System.
    - Details. As full a description of the problem as you can. For example, if you have a problem with exporting, then explain by describing how you are trying to export, and so on.
    - History: Is this going on long? Has anything been installed or deleted? - Are there error messages?
    - What steps have you tried already to solve the issue.
    - Anything unusual about your set up? Or how you use iPhoto?
    Anything else you can think of that might help someone understand the problem you have.

  • After December 2014 security updates, Word 2010 won't let me edit forms any longer

    I just installed the December 2014 security udpates. Today, when I open the timesheet form I use every week to record time, Word won't let me edit the form fields in the document. I can select them (sometimes) and it even occasionally lets me resize them,
    but I can't type into the free form text fields any longer. I even tried unprotecting the document, but Word won't let me do that either, although I suppose it is possible I forgot the password. But none of the standard ones I use will unlock the form I created.
    I'm not using XML form fields; I'm using the legacy text form field. Is anyone else experiencing this issue?
    Thanks,

  • For some unknown reason, Itunes won't let me edit Audio info

    So I recently synced 1891 songs to my iPhone 5. Whilst the process was completed successfully I noticed where in my itunes library all of the artists were organised accordingly. But suddenly, due to some kind of idiotic magic a lot of my music had missing information/wrong information. Oh well, this happens I thought placidly believing that all I had to do was fix the info myself. But lo and behold for some unknown reason Itunes won't let me edit any of the info of the music on my Iphone 5. Why? I don't know. But I know for a fact that none of the music is "Read-Only" because I check and I did the same process with the same files on a different computer. My new computer (currently using) is authorized and everything seems to be in order, I have no idea why this isn't working but some help would be appreciated. Please. I'm sick of having to read forum after forum after doing the simplest things on Itunes, please someone from Apple answer my question with efficiency, or create a less convulted program

    Sounds like the ID3 tags are messed up on those songs.
    iTunes imports using v2.2 tags. Convert the tags to v2.3 and try adding the artwork.
    Right-click > convert ID3 tags
    Also, make sure they are not read-only files.

  • I movie won't let me edit any of my projects.

    I was working on several projects in iMovie and they were working fine but now iMovie won't let me edit any of my projects and i'm not sure how to fix it. I even started a new project and once i exited out of iMovie and opened it again it wouldn't let me edit the new project i started.

    Try deleting iMovie's preference file. For the detailed steps, see my post in this recent thread:

  • IPhoto won't let me edit subtitles in slideshows

    I have the latest version of iPhoto, I'm using Lion and everything is updated.
    This happens often, not everytime, but iPhoto won't let me edit subtitles in slideshows. When I select the text and begin to type it just gives that annoying "you can't do that but I won't tell you why BEEP" that Apple have devised to irritate the **** out of people.
    On this occasion I was using the Sliding Panels theme.
    I have closed down iPhoto and restarted several times, but whatever I try it won't let me edit the text. I have read on other forums that this is not an uncommon bug, but not found a solution yet.
    Anybody any idea how to fix this, please?
    Thanks!
    Bruce

    As nobody has replied to my post yet I thought I would try something myself, and I seem to have found a work-around.
    As I said, I only get this problem now and again - about one slideshow in six - so I changed the theme to one I know works, edited the subtitles as I want them to be, then changed back to the theme I had originally, and everything works perfectly!
    You still can't re-edit these subtitles in this theme. You still get the annoying beep if you try.
    Incidentaly Apple rather churlishly censored my comment, and replaced it with four asterisks, making it look as if I was using some dreadful expletive. I merely used the commonly used word for The Price of Darkness' home that starts with a letter "h".  
    Hope this post helps someone with the same problem.

  • ITunes won't let me edit songs on my iPhone

    I have the "manually manage songs" on and it still won't let me edit anything on my iPhone, this is really frustrating. Please help.

    Never mind, I fixed it. Disregard this.

  • ITunes won't let me edit the song titles

    I click on a song title, and click the Get Info and it won't let me edit the song.
    The text is light gray instead of being black. When it's black I know I can edit it.
    I don't know how this happened... can someone please help me??

    Its one of two things,
    1) You don't have the rights to those files/location
    or
    2) The file is read only. Don't change just change the folder rights, go right to the files and uncheck readonly.
    Of course it could be something else I'm not aware of.

  • ITunes won't let me edit CD and song information?

    I've added some cd's to my library and iTunes won't let me edit song information or add artwork.

    There is a much easier way of solving this rather than converting all of the tracks to AAC..
    1) Go to where the album folder is stored on your PC and right click on the folder.
    2) Click on properties and unselect the box that says 'read only'.  After clicking apply, click OK to confirm changes.
    3) Now iTunes should let you edit the song info and add artwork
