Do you have a video card with at least 512 MB of vRAM?
I only have 256 MB vRAM on my older iMac and still have 3D capability in PS CS5, but not in PS CC. The newer versions of PS require 512 MB in order to enable 3D. -
I tried to sync my Macbook Pro photos in iPhoto with my iPod Touch. I have done this numerous times, but today I got an error message saying the required file cannot be found. At the same time all of my photos on my iPod vanished. Can anyone help me?
Try deleting the photo cache from your computer and then re-try the photo sync - the location of the cache, and how to delete it, is on this page http://support.apple.com/kb/TS1314

Tried to "Open As" in PS a NEF file I modified in LR. Got the following error message: "Could not complete your request because the file format module cannot parse the file." I can "Open" the file in PS, but then the changes I made in LR (and saved in the associated meta data file with the "Control S" command) are not applied to the opened PS file. HELP!
If you are working with a file you modified in Lightroom, you should go to the Lightroom Photo menu and choose Edit in... and the version of Photoshop you want to open it in.
There a dialog will ask if you want to transfer the LR settings you made to your photo when you open in Photoshop.

I have an iPad and my sister has a Mac. I'd like to buy an app for her from my Apple ID to her Apple ID but can't seem to do it. Any help please!!!!
HI Friend,
I think Gift Cards found in iTunes can help you. You can give her a Gift Card as the same value as the app and then she can buy by herself.
PS.: I never made it before, so please have a look about this in iTunes for further information before the purchasing.
Hope it will be helpful -

What iOS in on your iPod? The Users Guide says:
Viewing Photos, Slideshows, and Videos on a TV
You can use the Photos app to view photos, slideshows, and videos on your TV with
any of the following:
Apple Component AV Cable
Â
Apple Composite AV Cable
Â
Apple Digital AV Adapter and an HDMI cable (iPod touch 4th generation)
Â
Apple VGA Adapter and a VGA cable
Â
The Digital AV Adapter supports high-definition video up to 720p with audio.
The Guide also says the Video app can use TV out. -
The other day I was writing an essay while listening to my iTunes. Then all of a sudden, the power of my house went out. When we finally got power back, and I was able to open up itunes, over 700 songs of mine were deleted. When I looked in the trash, I saw two things labled "iTunes library extras", and "iTunes library genius". When I tried opening them, it said that I needed to open them with an application, and that I needed to chose one. I chose iTunes. When I tried double clicking on "iTunes library extras" after this, all it did was open up iTunes. Nothing else. Someone please help me because I had a lot of songs that I liked, and recently downloaded. And it will be a pain to get them all back if no one can help me.
Are the files still physically on your HD?
[User]/Music/iTunes/Media/Music is the default location. Unless you suddenly have a bunch of new "free space" on your hard drive, they're still where they were, you just need to create a new library file. -

HT4061 ITunes error message. Cannot connect how do I fix that
My ITunes no longer works error message says cannot connect. How do I get it working again
You can try this ....
Go to Settings>General>Date and Time>Set Automatically>Off. Set the date one year ahead. Try to update the apps again. If you get an error message, go back to the settings. Correct the date and time (set automatically) then go back and try to update the apps again.
Or try this ... If you are running iOS 6.
Settings>Privacy>Location Services>System Services (swipe to the bottom of the page to find this)>Location Based iAds>Off. -

Error message: Could not complete your request because the file was not found.
Tonight tried to open images in Photoshop CC 2014. Could not open any. Received the message "Could not complete your request because the file was not found."
I installed latest updates yesterday. Today not working. Can anyone assist?Well, then you do want your layered file back and the nice thing about Macs, Time Machine does keep hourly backups on your Mac. You should be able to enter Time Machine and restore that file.
I had hoped opening your file in another app might relase it so you could open it in PS.

Original file cannot be found for most music files, w/large external drive
Hello.
I am getting the error message "original file cannot be found" most times that I play a song in iTunes 6, though I am always able to locate the music file in my iTunes Music Folder. This is infuriating!
My music collection is large -- 90.08 GB, and is on an external FireWire drive.
Can somebody help me?mgallope,
welcome to Discussions.
Everytime you turn your ext hd off, iTunes reverts your library to its original location, which is within your mac HD.
In order to locate the music files, turn your ext hd on, plug it into your mac and wait it be recognized in Finder. After that, open iTunes Preferences>Advanced and change the location of your library from the original location to the new one. Wait until iTunes reorganizes the library and try playing any song.
Unfortunately, you´ll have to do this every time you shut your ext hd off.
Hope this helps.
Cheers,

After failing to update iphone OS, now iphone is in restore mode
Device Manager recognize USB is connected to iphone with Location: Location 0 (Apple Mobile device (recovery mode))
IPhone in "connect to itunes" screen
After connect to itunes, message "itunes has detected iphone in recovery mode. You must restore this iphone before it can be used with itunes." appear.
In Device -> iphone screen, after clicking "Restore" button, itunes status become "Extracting software..."
During extracting software process, iPhone change from "connect to itunes" screen to just "apple logo", then go back to "connect to itunes" screen; but at the same time device-iphone disappear from itunes; once itunes complete extracting software, error message comes out "The iphone "iphone" could not be restored. The device cannot be found"
Tried again few times with all USB device removed & turn off all the anti-virus software and all other non window / non-apple softwares; but same thing happened.
so now I'm stuck.... please help.after reading loads of forum, I didn't find anyone with the exact issue as mine. But I've followed some of the restore issue solution and now I've fixed my phone. Yeah! maybe not all the steps are necessary, but here was what I've done to fix it:
1. update itunes
2. Ensure Apple Mobile device driver is updated and work (i.e. iphones is detected in device manager)
3. run "msconfig", ensure all other non microsoft / non apple softwares are off
- Services: only enable all microsoft services, apple mobile device and bonjour service
- Startup: only enable QTTask & iTunesHelper
4. Restart computer
5 turn on itunes
6. connect iphones via USB.
7. itunes show iphone in device column, but iphone still stay in "connect to itunes" screen
8. Hold Sleep button + Home button until the screen goes dark (iphone disappear from itunes device column at the same time), then just keep holding the home button (without holding the sleep button)
9. first time, though itunes showa iphone in the device column again, but iphone screen go from apple icon straight to "connect to itunes" screen and stay there again.
10. I repeat step 8, this time though itunes show iphone in the device column again, but the iphone screen stay dark showing nothing (instead of showing "connect to iTunes" screen)
11. then I click restore in itunes, this time it manages to finish extracting software without iphone restarting itself during the process; itunes find the iphone and complete the restore.
12. As I do backup all the time, now I just need to sync all the files / setting back to iphone, everything back to normal again.
still not sure what happened to my phone, but now it's fix => -
ITunes error message. Cannot open or sync
Hi
I've been having problems with iTunes since downloading the new software for os4. I upgraded my iTunes to 9 and it worked once, in order to complete the software upgrade on my iPhone. Now every time I try to open iTunes it comes up with an error message
Cannot create the directory 'C:\ProgramFiles\iTunes\iTunes.Resources\ja.lproj\ DevicePrefsRingtones.nib'
A file with this name already exists. Please remame or remove the file and click retry or cable to exit.
I have tried looking for the file name and i can't find it, it doesn't come up in a search nor when I manually look for it. I can find other file pathways but not the ring tone one.
I think the problem has occurred after I downloaded a ringtone from a non apple site.
I'm unable to open iTunes at all. I have tried downloading a new version but it gets halfway though download and say that it already exists. I don't want to delete iTunes as I will lose all my data.
It has also corrupted my iPod function on my iPhone and that no longer works.
I hope I have put enough detail in my post for you to help, this is my first time posting!!!
Thanks.When you start iTunes, do you get a message about Windows configuring stuff before the error message.
When you start iTunes it checks to see if it is installed correctly and triggers a repair if not.
This kind of message usually occurs when something has got corrupted.
First try running a disk check to see if any problems are fixed. If they are try reinstalling.
http://support.microsoft.com/?kbid=315265
If not, try renaming the folder C:\ProgramFiles\iTunes\iTunes.Resources\ja.lproj\ as something else, then reinstall. Maybe that will trick the installer into getting past this.
