Many problems and questions with CC and PS CC 2014. HELP!!!

I'm having way too many problems with this whole Creative Cloud system, and PS CC 2014 in particular.
The courtesy of a response from a qualified Adobe staff member would be greatly appreciated by this long-time loyal patron of Adobe products.
1. When and why was my membership downgraded from Single App to Photographer?
     I signed up to Single App CC almost a year ago, and am able to access Typekit, 20GB of cloud storage and all the other features of Individual App membership, but not Market Assets. When I attempt to download any CC Market Assets I get a message stating "Market Assets are a premium feature" and "is only available to paid Creative Cloud members".
      I must still be subscribed to Single App because the subscription payment receipt I received a few weeks ago states: "We received payment for your Creative Cloud single-app membership for Photoshop (one-year) subscription, and your membership will renew on 30-July-2014 (PT)".
     The CC website states that Market Assets are not included in the Individual "Photography" subscription level (which seems to be a relatively new category), but I am clearly paying for Single App membership as indicated on my receipt. However, when I check my account, I'm listed as a Photographer subscriber.
     What gives?
2. Lightroom 5 is no longer listed as "Installed" in CC Apps window.
     I installed Lightroom 5 at Adobe's invitation last fall. Every time there is a CC update, the CC App widow shows that Lightroom 5 is not installed. So, I reinstall it, and the App list behaves properly until the next "update", which de-installs the app again.
     How do I keep Lightroom 5 installed?
3. My Extensions are not accessible in PS CC 2014
     I migrated my presets from PS CC to PS CC 2014, but the Extensions are still greyed out (Windows>Extensions). I updated Extension Manager and synced the desktop CC app, which downloaded some plug-ins to CC 2014, but not the Adobe Watermark extension (v2.2.3). Also, because Window>Extension is greyed out, I can't access AdobeExchange via CC 2014 to download any possible updates.
     Why can't I access my extensions in PS CC 2004?
4. CC Files wont stop syncing
     I thought I'd try uploading something to Creative Cloud to see what this storage feature could offer me. CC has been attempting to sync my files for aver a day now, chewing up bandwidth and seriously slowing down my internet connection to other content-dense sites. How do I stop the syncing process? I can pause it, but not stop it. I only have one file (a jpg image) in my Creative Cloud Files, which has a green check mark, so I don't understand what is being synced and why. I toogle syncing off and on again, but all I get is the spinning wheel. I've now turned off syncing, so this feature is now of no use to me.
     What am I doing wrong?
5. How do I make the previous version of PS CC the default PS app in Mac OS 10.8.5
     How do I deactivate PS CC 2014 as the default PS app?
     My workflow regularly includes the Oil Paint filter and Adobe Watermark extension to produce the images I am currently marketing. Therefore, I prefer to use PS CC v14.2.1, and not PS CC 2004, as my default PS app. Mac OS10.8.5 want to open all my RAW and PSD files in PS CC 2014. I change the "Open With" preference in the "Get Info" window to PS CC 14.2.1, but it immediately reverts to PS CC 2014.
I have several other issues with the latest CC platform, but lets see if I can get these ones solved before moving forward.
This whole Creative Cloud process is becoming very frustrating and overly time consuming, and seems to be much more complex than most users need or want (based on the comments and problems I read in this forum). I like the ongoing bug-fixes and camera/lens support updates, but the whole multi-app, internet-dependent format has gotten out of control, producing more problems than solutions, at least for me. This 2014 update makes it impossible to follow the workflow I've developed over the past several years. PixelBender is complex and non-intuitive, and does not effectively replace the Oil Paint filter. My extensions don't work. And now, the CC app won't let me access all the features I think I'm paying for. It seem to me these recent "upgrades" are half-baked. I've now spent countless hours trying to fix the problems imposed by CC 2014.
These "Community Discussions" sometimes take days to produce any sort of assistance, helpful or otherwise, and Adobe does not have the decency to offer direct access to customer service personnel to solve these problems.

I too, have many of the same problems: constantly reminded to "Install" the apps I have already done so (and paid for); Market Assets asks for me to become a paid member (I am); Adobe Bridge is missing from the apps page. I have reinstalled CC several times. Frustrating is the kindest word I can say--I seem to spend more time reading the "help" and discussion boards rather than working on photos. Dear Adobe, wake up and give us some solutions here! I too, have been using Adobe PS for years and UGH! CC is a mess and truly a bad experience for me! I apologize to the user above (RGMeyer) I could not be helpful, rather I am only adding fuel to your frustration.

Why does my safari browser frequently gives me a gray screen? I resetted my safari many times and it doesn't help. Also sometimes when I scroll it gives me this weird scrolling effect where everything is either upside or messed up.

My IPod no longer shuffles songs within playlists that are clearly set to shuffle. It is about 3/4 full so I thought of maybe compressing the files to get more space. Do you think that is the problem and if that might help?

My IPod no longer shuffles songs within playlists that are clearly set to shuffle. It is about 3/4 full so I thought of maybe compressing the files to get more space. Do you think that is the problem and if that might help?

Storage space on the iPod would not affect shuffled playlists or playlist shuffling, though substantially full iPods may wind up skipping songs on larger playlists after a while, and require a restart. As for compressing the files themselves, you can automatically re-encode files to a lower bitrate by checking the box on the summary page when your iPod is connected to your PC/Mac.
As for the shuffle problem, after restarting your iPod (hold the center button and Menu for a few seconds, until the Apple logo appears), make sure you're telling the iPod to shuffle the songs in a playlist by repeatedly clicking the center button until the Suffle Menu comes up, then scroll to the right to turn it on. From that song forward, the playlists' contents should be shuffled every time the playlist ends, or is accessed from a new song.
Shuffle does sometimes turn itself off, I've found, so double-check the setting is still on. Also, iPods shuffle by randomly assigning a playlist order for your songs, which is different from traditional shuffle (on, say, iTunes or Windows Media Player, where the new song is determined at random upon the current track ending. The iPod only chooses a random order of songs when you shuffle, to conserve battery life and queue up songs coming up on the playlist in the event of a shock).

Many problems and Apple Support isn't coming up with answers

Bought an apple tv yesterday. Am not happy.
I was on the phone with a tech for 2 hours yesterday. He had to guide me through upgrading it's software. But he couldn't resolve the problem I have with renting a movie on apple tv. Had me send an email to support!!!!!
Pictures and music sync and work fine. What doesn't is this:
1. Attempting to play a purchased tv show (sync'd from iTunes) on apple tv, after I select the tv show on the apple tv interface, apple tv gives me the following message "apple tv is not authorized to play this content."
2. Apple TV does not allow me to rent movies, it gives me an error message that it does not recognize my apple id or password. I assure your, after many tries with the tech rep on the phone, I know I didn't type it in wrong.
3. Apple TV is not able to access iTunes to authorize sync'ing a movie I rented on iTunes. I don't think this is even sych'ing. Please don't tell me that iTunes rented movies are not enabled to be sync'd (not a feature?).
4. Apple TV searches on YouTube gives the error message "content not found cannot communicate with YouTube please try again later."
Apple TV does play trailers for the movies available to rent. I expect this means it is able to download this off the internet.
So anyone want to try to beat apple's supports next 24 hour window for suggestions. It will be very much appreciated.
Other details:
cable internet (tv, tele, internet all in one package)
Airport express (cable modem goes direct to the Airport express)
iMac sunflower OSX 10.3.9 (yes I know its old (5 years), but it still works fine - directly connected to airport via cat5a ethernet connection, no airport )
MacBook OSX 10.4.11 connects via airport.
Canon MX300 connected to airport express via USB.
I'm in NY with a USA apple id.
Computer was purchased and used in the UK before I moved back to the USA
Thanks,

I had such a strange experience.
I bought 2 160GB ATV's to replace my original 40GB. One worked, right out of the box using wireless.
The other, using wired Ethernet couldn't connect to Apple store to rent movies as described in many posts.
I tried putting it on wireless. I tried removing WEP. I downloaded the newest update. I reset the machine by taking out the power for 1/2 hour and then coming back.
I gave up after 2 hours.
I took it to the apple store today and replaced it and the new one worked right out of the box in wireless mode. Go figure.
Apple support was useless.

My paper work for my linksys says WEP 64 bits. I've tried changing my IPOD to that and it will say put in password and when I do I get "invalid password" or can not connect. This has been in the last few weeks. I have researched this for the last 2 weeks, called apple and they said it's not my IPOD, called Linksys and they want to charge $30 to fix it. How do I change my router without totaly not messing it up?

Why are there so many problems and NO APPLE SUPPORT?

I never find help here, just MANY people with the same problem and no help. Why can I no longer delete podcast from my just updated itunes? Please fix this, ie, make it work. / BRW

Shqip an annoying forum bug exists that caused your reply to be hidden until now.
If your Express is still under warranty you should contact AppleCare and have them address the problem.
It is possible 2.4 GHz wireless interference is a factor. Use Apple's Wireless Diagnostics as a tool to examine your wireless environment.
You can determine for yourself whether wireless interference is likely to be a causal factor preventing reliable music streaming. To do that, hold an option key while you click your Mac's Wi-Fi icon, and choose Open Wireless Diagnostics...
The following authentication dialog will appear:
Authenticate with your Admin password, then click the Continue button in the following:
The network analysis and diagnostic tests will take several minutes to complete:
When it completes, if your wireless network is functioning properly the following will result:
If something is amiss, supposedly the results will be different and you will be presented with helpful information.
Assuming your connection is "working as expected" select Continue to summary and clickContinue:
Ignore the pre-populated text field, which is provided as a place for you to type in helpful information should Apple ask for it in the course of obtaining technical assistance from them. Apple has no way of knowing where your router is located in your home, and certainly doesn't know if you even have an upstairs bedroom closet.
Click Continue.
The next step will also take a few minutes:
When it finishes, you will be presented with a summary that may or may not be useful to you. Let me know if it is.
The WirelessDiagnostics-xxx.tar.gz file deposited on your Desktop can be dragged to the Trash, or you may wish expand it and examine its contents. It's up to you.

Long List of Problems and no one will help!!!

I have had NOTHING but problems with this phone since the sales clerk talked me into buying it. I've had it for a little over a year and a half. It's had "Software" issues out the rear and it's been replaced and still has the very same issues. YET I can't swap it out with another phone without paying through the nose for a new one. Verizon sold me a phone that does not work completely. Verizon keeps replacing it with the same phone and numerous Verizon employees keep telling me that this phone has MANY known issues, LOTS of complaints. Yet I am still stuck with a phone that is barely useable. I am so disgusted right now.
Here is just a SMALL sampling of issues with my phone and I am still being denied a new phone unless I want to pay $600. I have 4 weeks until I can "Upgrade" and I still can't even get an early upgrade. I have been VERY patient waiting for my "TWO YEARS" to be "UP" so I can upgrade without being robbed. This in addition to suffering through the Black Berry Storm that SUCKED and was replaced 7 times in a year and a half period due to "Software issues" I will admit, two of those replacements were my fault - one got wet and the other was stolen, but still, 5 replacements is not acceptable. Then I went to buy my new phone (Glory day for me) then I get talked into this Fascinate and it's just as bad as the Storm was, if not worse. I can't seem to win. I have decided to go for an iPhone.
Here is my list of problems and NO one can fix them, no one can help, I get told that this is a known problem yet Verizon won't take care of their customers that got screwed by this phone. I've been a loyal customer for 7 years. I love the actual cellular service, I rarely get dropped calls, which is why I stick with verizon, but I am seriously considering jumping ship, because even though I'm loyal, I buy my phones through them, I can't get support.
The SHORT LIST of problems that makes this phone 100% unacceptable:
1) Can't text 3/4 of the time because a little grey box pops up in the text box and it won't accept anything I type into it.
2) Have not been able to send picture emails for several months now - Verizon can't figure out why. My husband misses out on a lot of pics of our kids, I like to text him fun pics of them doing things or when we are on vacation without him.
3) phone freezes up on a regular basis. Several times a day. I have to pull the battery out and reboot.
4) Sometimes I can't answer the phone when it rings - the phone rings and when I slide the puzzle piece to answer the phone, it freezes and continues to ring long after the person has hung up and the only way to get it to stop ringing is to pull the battery out and reboot the whole thing.
5) a LOT of times, people will call my phone and it won't ring - it goes straight to voicemail. I have had people call me when they are sitting right next to me and it doesn't ring (and yes, I've checked the volume, it's on, the phone is on) sometimes though, it rings and I actually can answer it, but lately, it's becoming more and more of a problem being able to receive and actually be able to answer them
6) I can't use Facebook. It takes forever to actually get into FB and when I do, it only shows about 5 posts before it freezes. A few weeks ago, I could post to FB but only here and there, now I can't post from FB from my phone at all. I know that's likely due to the APP - but FB on this phone has always sucked.
7) At home, even when I standing next to my wireless router, it says I have "Lost Signal", yet all of my other wireless devices work from 5400 square feet away, on the other side of the house, upstairs. Even when I'm standing in the Verizon store, it says "Internet Connection Lost" It is so frustrating. I am a busy mom and I have 5 minuts to myself and I can't even check FB or browse on the internet and yes, I have checked, all of my connections are set up correctly. My wireless is enabled on my phone. But it still doesn't work.
8) Email - it's constantly refreshing, even though I have it set to only refresh once and hour. I think I even changed it to once a day. Instead, that little "refresh wheel" spins constantly on my phone and while this little refresh wheel spins, I can't read email, I can't write email and I can't send email. When it finally stops and I open an email and the try to respond and write back, that little refresh wheel starts spinning again and then I have to wait until i can get home to a real computer to actually read & Respond to email.
9) Calendar inputs the wrong time. I had a dentist appt at 9:30am. I set it as 9:30am. When I saved it, it changed it to 10:40am. I went back into the calendar function to change it thinking I had input the wrong time, but no, when I went to edit it, my 9:30 time was set, I hit save again and saving it changed it to 10:40. WTH? I can't even rely on the calendar function.
10) Two weeks ago, I woke up, looked at my clock, which I also rely on as an alarm clock. The room was dark. The clock said 5:30am. But for some reason, it felt later. Sure enough, I get up, check my husbands alarm clock, it's 7:30am. I am so thankful I had a gut feeling and looked at another clock. I did not change my time zone on my phone (in fact, I went looking for Time change stuff and I couldn't even find it. Then two hours later, the phone went back to normal time all on it's own.
11) Text messages occasionally pop up and it tells me it's from Jay Smith (Not real name) and when I open the actual text, it's from Sarah Jenkins (not real name) WTH? How am I supposed to rely on text if its confused itself?
12) Phone shuts itself off all the time, several times a day. All of a sudden I will hear the musical tone of my phone shutting down and then at some point, it will turn itself back on. When I turn it back on, it resends out old text messages (See below)
13) Text message randomly sends out old text messages to people that I sent text messages out to months ago. So the people will text me back saying "WTHeck is this about?" and I look and it's an old text message I sent them a month or two ago. It usually does this when the phone freezes, shuts itself down and restarts. I have found out that IF I delete my text messages timely, then it won't resend out any old text messages, but I am not very good about deleting stuff and often times, text message contains some important information that I haven't yet had the time to copy down and save. I shouldn't HAVE to delete my text messages so it doesn't randomly send out text messages to people.
14) Often times, I will send out a text message and it will fail to send the message and I get a text message saying my text message has failed.
I could go on, but I think that will give sufficient evidence that this phone stinks and that Verizon should give people owning this phone a chance to get a new phone without raping their wallets.
Maybe someone here will listen? Because no one at the store does... I pay for Verizon service that I barely even get to use because my phone doesn't perform like the guy who sold it to me told me it would.
CAN YOU HEAR ME NOW????

About the only thing I can say is to keep going to Verizon, or calling customer service to get them to look at the issues. I talked to 1 rep that told me to dial either 4# symbols, or 4* symbols (Can't remember which it was) after I got the VM message but did not have the phone ring, so it would mark my account record and they could search and troubleshoot the issue.
As far as your upgrade, I think you have done the right thing so far, and that is signing up on this forum, that way you can look at the different phone forums and see what issues that people are having. Talking to people that have the phone is a great way to find out what the issues are. Verizon Sales reps will only sell you the latest and greatest, or if there is something that they are being told to push to get out of stock.
Going with an iPhone is ok, just make sure it is correct for you, because like you said earlier, once it is done, it is done and you are stuck with it for 2 years. I had a friend who made a knee-jerk reaction to a bad phone, and did the same thing. They regretted it after 6 months. I am not saying the iPhone will be bad for you, just make sure you do your homework.

I have received my first mac from a designer friend who passed away recently. He had been having problems with crashing in Lion. His friend upgraded to Mountain Lion before his mac pro laptop, mid 2010, was sent to me. It has many problems and crashes

After sorting the material of my friends on the drive and creating a new user, I realized that the system was unusable with 30 or 40 crashes a day. I am a photoshop user and my friend had installed cs2 and upgraded to cs5. Actually everything was crashing and he had had the problems in Lion and they did not go away in Mountain Lion.
So my sense is the next best step is to uninstall and reinstall the operating system....but I'm entirely new to Mac though I quite good at problem solving on PC. I have been messing around trying to get Mac up for over a week now so am learning quickly but feel uncertain about the steps in installation and don't want to mess things further.
I have found this
https://discussions.apple.com/docs/DOC-3351
which seems useful.
I'm backing everything now to a usb drive, I have one copy in timemachine, but I need a clean install so I'm backing things manually as it's not so complicated my being a new user.
I have the original discs of Snow Leopard and a dmg file of Mountain Lion that were installed on this computer.
I hope I can find my friends Adobe id and password.....he does have a list of passwords, how can I check if they are correct.
Do I need to install Snow leopard from the original disks first and then update and then upgrade to Mountain Lion?
He upgraded first to Lion but I can't find that program to install, do I need it to get to Mountain Lion?
I don't have boot disks, does that matter?
What can I do about CS5 in a restore? I don't mind loosing other programs so much as this one.....I haven't seen the upgrades and only have CS2. What happens to all your programs...I guess they are just lost?
I haven't used mail, so I'm not worried about that.
Hope I can get some support with the process, any support will be valued that is at all related. Thank you

I am looking through this material, it's great. I'm wondering though, does command r work in #8 if my original disks where Snow Leopard?
Yes, when the operating system was upgraded to 10.7 then to 10.8, it 10.6 was replaced so those 10.6 disks are only good now for completely erasing the entire drive and reverting the machine back to 10.6
10.7 and 10.8 has a Recovery HD partiton on the boot drive.
https://support.apple.com/kb/HT4718
I have a mountain lion dmg file that was used to upgrade from Lion, would double clicking on this equal the same thing as reinstalling mountain lion over itself?
I wouldn't use this, as Apple is now changing things, so you need to reinstall 10.8 via the Recovery HD
I would prefer to keep CS5 photoshop
Not going to happen, if it's working now good for you. But according to Roaring Apps it's not working for 10.8. and it needs to be upgraded to CS6
If you revert the machine to 10.6 or 10.7, your going to erase CS5 and everything else.
Doing #20 would be a bit beyond me and I don't know another mac user so that I can work from their mac.
Why do you need another Mac users machine?
Print out the instructions.
Here is some more about secure erasing for a new owner
How do I securely delete data from the machine?
Installing OS X 10.8 again
https://support.apple.com/kb/HT4718
Does the reinstall have to go from Snow Leopard which was the base install, to lion then to mountain lion,
No, you erase and install 10.8
When Apple upgrades 10.6 to 10.7 then to 10.8, it's a complete operating system replacement, it's called a upgrade because it's still OS X but leaves all your files and most programs intact, none of the older operating system version remains.
Just like if you would upgrade Vista to Windows 7, or Windows 7 to Windows 7 Pro.
Can I install the mountain lion upgrade over a freshly installed Snow Leopard?
Yes, but it requires erasing the entire drive (including 10.8 Recovery HD) from the 10.6 disks, then installing 10.6, then Software Updating to 10.6.8, then buying 10.8 from the AppStore, then downloading it and installing it, then the machine will be 10.8
Or you can use the Recovery HD and just erase the Macintosh HD parittion then reinstall 10.8 that way for free.
How to reinstall just OS X or erase/install OS X
https://support.apple.com/kb/HT4718
See what is confusing you is there is a hidden Recovery HD partition on the boot drive, it can do all the things like a OS X install disk can do, erase the Macintosh HD partiton (where OS X, programs and files are) and install a new copy of OSX from Apple's servers so it reboots to a brand new machine again (no Cs5 though)
Instead of a boot disk, there is a two bootable partitions on the boot drive, one is Recovery HD and the other is Macintosh HD which boots into OS X.
SO your command r booting the operating system in Recovery HD to erase the other partition and reinstall OS X into from Apple's servers, got it.?
Your going to need your AppleID and password to reinstall OS X 10.8, all part of the new world order.

So many problems and Kit Kat 4.4.2 is to blame!

Since the update to Kit Kat 4.4.2 my LG G2, along with so many other Android users, has been having problems. My biggest complaint is "Unfortunately, Messaging has stopped". The stock app won't even open unless I make Hangouts my default. I've deleted all threads, cleared cache, disabled/ tried Hangouts, and still no luck. I hate Hangouts and really want my stock app working again!
Also my battery over heats often (charging or while using) plus it drains fast, alarm randomly will not go off, screen freezes from time to time, keyboard will hang up or double my text, and I will lose 4G LTE without even moving the phone.
As for troubleshooting I have a background in tech support for phones. Here's what I have done and still no luck:
1. Restarted phone.
2. Disabled all stock apps I am not using plus cleared data/cache.
3. Uninstalled all downloaded apps from Play Store.
4. Restarted phone again.
5. Made Hangouts default SMS.
6. Data stays off unless I need it.
7. Closed all running apps from Task Manager.
8. Still no luck!
9. Dimmed brightness to 40%.
10. Turned off Location.
11. Activated Battery Saver.
14. Backed up everything.
15. Factory Restore with out using Google.
12. Restarted phone.
13. Still no luck!
16. Checked for System Updates on Verizon and LG websites.
Still no luck!
No one wants to take the blame for this HUGE problem that is reaping havoc on ALL Android users. I didn't buy a $600 phone less than a year ago just to use it as a paper weight! WE need a fix or an update ASAP!!!!!!

The place to call is LG who updated your device with the Google Inc. Operating System.
Verizon is not the blame.
Good Luck

Xperia z1, too many problems and poor response from sony.

I thought Xperia z1 is best has sony made ever in every department but it's not. I'm very disappointed with sony's neglected response. I contacted sony 2 times but there is no response. also in support forum can't to get response sometimes. I agree with it is a best camera, yep in day light it's a best but in low light it's worse. z1 can't beat even Xperia c mid range phone. then why sony called z1 is a flagship. on white paper everything is good but practicaly it's not. I don't know what is the in z1 series. it freezes and screen getting black after that even restart button also didn't work sometimes,, 2) network issue 3) lowlight photography is worse compare to other high end smartphones.
performance is good but need new software update for optimisation.. I was very happy when I bought but now I'm dossapointed with sony neglect response. battery drains very fast also.

I suggest you contact sony:
