Mac Version of PS6 Will Not Launch if Scratch Disk is Not Set to Boot Drive

Mac OS 10.8.2. PS6 will not launch unless the boot drive is set as the number one option for the scratch disk. Even if I choose another internal drive and set it as the number one option for PS6 it will not launch. Is there any kind of work around for this? My boot drive is only a 120GB SSD so I don't want to use it as the main scratch disk.

Curt good idea but no go. This is a fresh install of PSCS6. I ran the Apple Disk Utility three times and Disk Warrior on the boot drive. If I leave the Scratch Disk set to the boot drive no issues, only if I change the order of the scratch disk or if I do not have the boot drive selected as a possible option for the scratch disk.
Where is the 'ignor ownership' option found? I did a 'Get Info' and I don't see it in that window.

  • Itunes application can not be open the disk can not be read from or writte

    itunes can not be opened the disk can not be read from or written to. That is the warning i get when i click my itunes to open it. Problem...
    there is no disk:) i have no idea what this warning means.. i have restarted and nothing.. i updated itunes and same warning.. there is no disk in the drive at all..
    infact i made sure i was in a room with no other disks.. Help??

    A few things to try:
    • Restore Permissions, using Disk Utility (in ~Applications/Utilities)
    • Set the correct Ownership & Permissions for the iTunes folder:
    Select the iTunes folder in ~/Users/YourUsername/Music.
    Get Info (command-I).
    Expand 'Ownership & Permissions' and 'Details:'
    You must read: 'You can Read & Write': if not, change it.
    Click on the 'Apply to enclosed items...' button.
    Hope this helps.

  • Could not place picture, scratch disks are full

    Hello, after fresh installation of Windows 7 ultimate on a PC (Intel Core-i5, GA-H97, 8GB RAM, 120 SSD for system, 1TB for data), and Photoshop CC 2014, we have a problem:
    When  trying to add a picture to a new Photoshop document we get the following error message: "Could not place, because the scratch disks are full".
    On C: (the SSD) there is 70GB free space, on D: there is 900GB free space.
    I've defined both disks as scratch disks, then tried to define either of the disks as scratch disk - nothing helped!
    Could you please help us ASAP?
    Thanks in advance.

    Good day!
    Have you restarted Photoshop after changing the Performance Preferences?
    Using the System drive as Scratch Disk is not prudent if it can be avoided.

  • Applications will not launch and install disk will not mount

    Just recently my applications have taken a turn to not wanting to launch. These include anything from Dashboard to the Microsoft Office Suite. It also includes anything that is downloaded form the internet, like the World of Warcraft download client. Long story short, the errors that I constantly get are
    System/Library/Frameworks/ApplicationServices.Framework/versions/A/Frameworks/Co reGraphics.Framework/versions/A/CoreGraphics
    I figured that with it being a system library issue and the Repair Disk Permissions has been completely useless, that a complete restore would be in order. And I was wrong. For some reason my Genuine 13-inch MacBook Pro Mac OS X Install DVD will not mount. Meaning I out the DVD in said drive and it will attempt to mount but will eventually give up and eject itself. I can load any other cd/DVD into my drive and it will mount without a problem.
    Everything is up to date software wise.

  • My ipod 1st gen battery went totally dead because the usb cable was defective. I've changed the cable.  now when i connect my ipod to the netbook, itune is not launching automatically and windows does not recognize it......how can these issues be resolved

    My ipod 32gb 1st generation battery went totally dead because the usb cable was defective.  I have since replaced the cable but now itune will not launch automatically as it did before and windows xp does not recognize it.  Nonetheless it is charging.  However can i resolve these issues bearing in mind that i am not tech savvy?

    have since replaced the cable but now itune will not launch automatically as it did before and windows xp does not recognize it. 
    Try disabling a/v software and turn off the Firewall on your PC.
    Disable antivirus software
    Turn-Windows-Firewall-on-or-off
    Then connect the iPod to your computer. Launch iTunes. If your computer still won't recognize the iPod check out this article.
    http://support.apple.com/kb/TS1538
    Once your iPod is functioning again, with it connected to your computer, launch iTunes. Select the iPod under Devices in the source list on the left.
    Select the box next to:   Open iTunes when this iPhone is connected
    That way iTunes should open automatically when you connect your iPod to your computer.
    And iTunes / Preferences - Devices. You can have your iPod sync automatically whenever it's connected from the Devices pane.

  • App Not Launching, Problem Reported, Dev (F84Games) Not Responding, Refund?

    Hi all, I really need help with the 'Railroad Madness' app purchased for my son's ipad (from F84Games in Los Angeles). When he tried to play/launch it the game just crashes immediately after the splash screen.
    Reporting the problem to Apple (through my itunes purchase history 'report a problem' function) suggested contacting the developer directly, which I have done, twice, via email and with an app review describing how the app does not work at all. I have asked F84Games either for a refund or a functioning replacement.
    I have patiently waited for over a week on a response from Apple or F84Games, with no reply from either, which has been very disappointing since my general experience is that Apple has excellent customer support. Since the fault of the application is because it does not launch at all (and not a simpler functional issue), it seems reasonable to me that they would send some kind of message responding to my request?
    Does Apple allow developers to post and sell 'bad' apps on the app store? I thought Apple had a rigorous approval/testing processes in place to prevent this sort of situation from happening in the first place?
    Since I have already reported the problem to Apple via iTunes, I cannot report it a second using a different label.
    Please, if anyone out there (or Apple, if you are monitoring these discussions) can advise how I can have my problem resolved, purchase refunded, or get some sort of human reply from Apple support; or at least have the faulty 'Railroad Madness' game removed from the app store so that others do not waste $4.99 I would be most thankful and appreciative.
    Thank you, Steve

    Hello Lauren, greetings from Australia.
    I (and my son) really appreciate the message, thanks!
    We look forward to seeing the updated version of Railroad Madness to enjoy playing on our iPad. I hope we have not put you all to too much trouble.
    BTW, I tried Ian's suggestions but was unsuccessful. Maybe the problem has something to do with running under the new version of the OS?
    Again, thank you for taking the time to respond to my post.

  • OS X could not install on this disk. Not enough disk space

    Hi,
    Disclamer here is that I am completely new to the Mac world after having used purely Windows for the last 15 odd years so sory for any silly mistakes
    I tried to do an upgrade on my Mac Book Air but am running into a really annoying issue am hoped that someone would be able to give me some much needed help.
    I downloaded Mavericks from the app store with no issues. I then tried to do the upgrade and I get to the OS X installer screen, were I chose my language then hit next. I then select the harddrive to install on press install. I then get to the Installing X screen and status says Installing OXS on the disk "Macintosh HD"
    After a few seconds I get a message saying "OS X could not install on this disk. There is not enough space on this disk to install the selected items. Deselect at least 1.16 GB and try again"
    I appreciate that I need to delete some files but how can I get get to the files in order to delete them as, as soon as I resart the PC I get caught in the same loop
    Manu thanks for taking the time to look at this and for your help

    If you cannot get into your Mac at all, if you MacBook Air is still under AppleCare, you can purchase an external hard drive to connect up  to your MacBook Air (MBA), bring both the drive and your Mac in an Appe Store or Apple Auhtorized reseller/repair center so Apple techs can install a bootable copy of OS X 10.9 Mavericks onto the external drive where you can boot to that drive from your MBA and access your MBA's internal hard drive and start cleaning off and archiving data.
    You should never, EVER let a conputer hard drive get completely full, EVER!
    With Macs and OS X, you shouldn't let the hard drive get below 15 GBs or less of free data space.
    If it does, it's time for some hard drive housecleaning.
    Follow some of my tips for cleaning out, deleting and archiving data from your Mac's internal hard drive.
    Have you emptied your iMac's Trash icon in the Dock?
    If you use iPhoto, iPhoto has its own trash that needs to be emptied, also.
    If you store images in other locations other than iPhoto, then you will have to weed through these to determine what to archive and what to delete.
    If you use Apple Mail app, Apple Mail also has its own trash area that needs to be emptied, too!
    Delete any old or no longer needed emails and/or archive to disc, flash drives or external hard drive, older emails you want to save.
    Delete any other mail in your Junk folders. Also, look through your Sent Mail to see if there is anything that can be deleted.
    Other things you can do to gain space.
    Once you have around 15 GBs regained, do a search, download and install OmniDisk Sweeper.
    This app will help you locate files that you can move/archive and/or delete from your system.
    STAY AWAY FROM DELETING ANY FILES FROM OS X SYSTEM FOLDER!
    Look through your Documents folder and delete any type of old useless type files like "Read Me" type files.
    Again, archive to disc, flash drives, ext. hard drives or delete any old documents you no longer use or immediately need.
    Look in your Applications folder, if you have applications you haven't used in a long time, if the app doesn't have a dedicated uninstaller, then you can simply drag it into the OS X Trash icon. IF the application has an uninstaller app, then use it to completely delete the app from your Mac.
    Download an app called OnyX for your version of OS X.
    When you install and launch it, let it do its initial automatic tests, then go to the cleaning and maintenance tabs and run the maintenance tabs that let OnyX clean out all web browser cache files, web browser histories, system cache files, delete old error log files.
    Typically, iTunes and iPhoto libraries are the biggest users of HD space.
    move these files/data off of your internal drive to the external hard drive and deleted off of the internal hard drive.
    If you have any other large folders of personal data or projects, these should be archived or moved, also, to the optical discs, flash drives or external hard drive and then either archived to disc and/or deleted off your internal hard drive.
    Good Luck!

  • Scratch disk selection not sticking

    I'm in Illustrator CS4 on my Mac Pro. I'm trying to set my primary scratch disk to my internal RAID disk, secondary to my Main.
    I make the selections in Prefs and get that 900 year old icon telling me that changes will take effect after I restart Illustrator. So I dutifully restart Illustrator. When I look at my Prefs again, my selections are gone. Anyone know how to get these to actually work?

    Trashing prefs did it. Yesssssssss.
    Unfortunately every article about and mention of trashing prefs seems to leave out the crucial *how*, which I eventually figured out and posted to: http://forums.adobe.com/message/2133838#2133838
    Adobe would do well to include this level of detail in their unweildy help/support.
    And to use a less infuriating text editor for comment editing.
    Thanks all!

  • Can not print from my pc using time capsule's printer, but the mac in the office will.  PC sees the network just not the printer connected to the capsule.

    I can't get my pc to see the printer connected to the time capsule, it sees and connect to the network but will not see the printer.  The mac in the office see both the network and the printer connected to the capsule.

    Suggest that you check to make sure that you installed Bonjour Print Services for Windows v2.0.2 on the PC.
    Run the program and hopefully it will find your printer so you can select it and click to get things going.

  • HT203175 my itunes will not launch from desktop keeps saying not installed properly despite having uninstalled and reinstalled many times

    anybody got any ideas ??? won't launch from desktop

    Thanks.  I read that link before posting here but I wasn't able to do the first part because iTunes will not ever open for me to start it in Safe mode. 
    Since I posted yesterday, "something" I did must have worked (but I don't know what exactly because I think I didn't do anything).  But iTunes just randomly appeared on the system tray yesterday afternoon.  It wouldn't open by clicking on it, so I tried to Ctl-Alt-Del to close it, thinking I'd at least get some errors to view in the log, but then about a half hour after  I had tried to close it through Ctl-Alt-Del, it actually opened.  It still doesn't recognize my iPhone 4S though.  If I get that to start working I'll update again. 

  • Outlook will not launch properly after initial attempt at setting up Exchange e-mail

    I initially posted this on the general Outlook forum, but they said it was an Exchange problem so I should post it here for an answer.
    I recently had to wipe my laptop and perform a clean install of Win 7 Home Professional 64 Bit.  I re-downloaded and installed my Office Suite (University 2010 ... basically everything in Professional), and can access everything except Outlook.  I
    attempted to set up my school e-mail on it (which I have successfully set up on my desktop), but it wouldn't connect to the server.  It wouldn't let me cancel the set up, and now every time I try to open Outlook I get this error message:
    The connection to Microsoft Exchange is unavailable.  Outlook must be online or connected to complete this action.
    Yes, I've verified I'm online.  :)
    When I click OK, a new window pops up that says "Microsoft Exchange" and has my server and mailbox info, with a "check name" button.  When I click the check name, I get the same error as above; occasionally Outlook will hang in "not
    responding" and I have to force close the program.
    I tried uninstalling and re-installing Office, but no change (I'm guessing there were some registry files or something that hung around and keep trying to get back in).  I've tried going to Control Panel > Mail > E-mail Accounts and removing the
    school account from the E-mail tab (I get the error: You cannot delete this Outlook data file.  Configuration information in the file is being copied to your new default data file.  You can delete the file after this information is copied).  I
    was able to add a Gmail account, and it is working fine.  But I can't set up or get rid of this school account.  Occasionally I'll get that "Microsoft Exchange is unavailable" message again (seems to be random, I don't even have to be touching
    anything and it will pop up), and I got a message earlier something about my OST (I think) file, but I didn't copy down that error and I can't figure out what I did to get it.  At this point I'm completely and utterly confused, and would appreciate any
    help that anyone can come up with.

    I set it up exactly like I did in Outlook on my desktop computer.  At this point I just want to get the account info off Outlook so I don't have to deal with it, even though I won't be able to check my school e-mail from my laptop without going through
    the 4 steps it takes to log in through the school website.
    If I go to Control Panel > Mail > E-mail Accounts, and try to delete the school e-mail from the list, it tells me "You cannot delete this Outlook data file.  Configuration information in the file is being copied to your new default data file.
     You can delete the file after this information is copied."  It's been giving me that message for the past week.  I can't go in to the Data Files tab to try to remove it, because I get the error "This data file is associated with a mail account.
    To remove it use the 'E-mail' tab."  I've already tried uninstalling and reinstalling the entire Office suite, and it's still there.  I really don't want to have to reformat my computer again, but I'm afraid that's the only way I'm going to get this
    off of here.
    Just had a thought, is there anything on the desktop I can copy and paste it into a folder on my desktop so that I know it's set up correctly?  I'm 99.999% sure I did it the same way, but that's the only foolproof way I can think of to make absolutely
    sure, and figured it was worth a shot.

  • Windows 7 on Bootcamp not Recognizable in Startup Disk AND not bootable?

    Hi, I'm new here. Anyways, can someone help me here; I had a bootcamp partition set at 5GB for Windows XP. I recently formatted, expanded to 32GB, and installed Windows 7 on that partition. The installation went fine without problems, and I installed the drivers from my Snow Leopard install disk, again, everything is fine. then I booted into Mac OS X Snow Leopard (10.6.5) without problem. What I used to do with my Windows XP install, is go to System Preferences > Startup Disk > and selected BOOTCAMP, and hit restart; and everything would boot fine, and when I was done in Windows I selected Macintosh HD and my main boot device and restarted. But now, with my Windows 7 install, I can do that. It won't come up in Startup Disk and in Disk Utility I can't mount it. When I do try to mount it, the button presses and does nothing. I could really use some help here, I need to get that Windows up and running for some applications needed for school.

    Depends what you used to change the size.
    Would have been better probably to just backup (if you haven't already) and just do a full erase and restore for OS X and then start over.
    And yes, some find Windows only shows in the startup (Boot Camp) control panel in Windows.
    Resizing / expanding and shrinking from Windows causes partition for Windows to disappear even from Finder.
    Windows still works. You can still OPTION boot and change the default while in Windows. Otherwise, go back to scratch and start over.
    And 32GB really is the minimum.
