Re-installing, uninstalling and installing CC fails after Mac OS in-place reinstall

My Mac OS Mavericks failed (not bootable) and I had to do a reinstallation of the OS and the CC Installer.
I have searched for online solutions including here but none are like mine or if I tried, did not work in fixing Adobe CC.
The reinstall put my old system, library , applications and system folders on my desktop. My user files, user library was still there.
I had to put the Adobe CC Apps back into my Applications folder (actually it copied them) and adobe support files back into the respective old locations to try and uninstall them and reinstall them.
I was able to uninstall Lightroom 4 and 5, Photoshop CC & 2014, Bridge, Muse, InDesign CC & 2014 and CC installer.
Some of the uninstalls were incomplete or partial or failed. I can not recall all I did, I did also try the clean up tool.
What I have now is the remains of Indesign cc, indesign CC 2014. The InDesign CC 2014 icon has been replaced with a generic icon with a circle and a slash. Clicking on it gives me the message "You can't open the application "Adobe InDesign CC 2014.app" because it may be damaged or incomplete.
I have been able to re-install Acrobat XI Pro, Bridge, Photoshop CC and 2014 and Lightroom 4 and 5
I also have broken Photoshop Elements 11 and 12 still on my computer that will not uninstall, I will try the CD next and reinstall then uninstall.
ALL of my other third party apps I don't have an issue with it is just Adobe CC. Can I just trash all the files and will I get into issues with the mother ship when I want to reinstall them?

Creative Cloud install on PC after Mac?

I purchased a license fromAcademicsuperstore for Creative Cloud and installed it on my Mac. I understand that I can install on two computers, so I now want to install it on my PC desktop. The file that I used to initiate the install on the Mac is a .dmg file, so I tried to download the PC equivalent, and I was told that my license code had already been used. What do I do?
Thanks

Bluetooth fails after abnormal shutdown - needs constant reinstall.

This is something that has plagued me with my previous Tecra. I am using a Terca M10 and have had a lot of problems with Windows XP preinstalled (because it came with a lot of undesirable stuff).
The bluetooth manager stays red which means that it is not working.
I have to uninstall and reinstall the bluetooth stack time and time again.
And even when it is working I get the following message in the Event Log:
The application-specific access security descriptor for the COM Server application C:\Program Files\Toshiba\Bluetooth Toshiba Stack\TosBtSrv.exe is invalid. It contains Access Control Entries with permissions that are invalid. The requested action was therefore not performed. The application set this security permission programmatically; to modify this security permission contact the application vendor.
Can anyone help me solve this issue.

Double-click the event entry in Event Viewer and then click the Copy button on the right to put its details on your clipboard. Paste that without editing into your reply, and tell us whether it's from the Application or the System log.
Which Tecra M10?

Mail upgrade and import assistant failing after Yosemite install

I upgraded my friend's macbook pro 13-inche Mid 2010 to Yosemite, everything except iMail seems to be working fine.
When I go to launch iMail it tells me that it is "updating your mail database", it proceeds to go into another screen where it is "Migrating data" then the next screen shows "The upgarde failed. An error occurred during the upgrade. Click Continue to launch the Mail Import Assistan, which will help you create a new library and import your existing messages".
I click continue and get an error pop up that says "Your Mail index has been damaged. To repair it, quite Mail. Mail will repair the index the next time you open Mail. Your mailboxes and messages will be preserved" and hte only option is to Quit. I launch it again and get a new window with the header Message Import and the info says "Mail needs to import your messages. This might take a few minutes. You won't be able to use Mail until the import is finished. Click Continue to import your messages now, or click Cancel to import later". I click Continue and it goes through the importing process of bringing over 8467 messages and folders from Hotmail and another iCloud account which takes about a minute then goes to the next screen which goes through Upgrading then optimizing then migrating the data and back to the upgrade failed message the same as above.
I have tried restarting the computer and attempting to open Mail 3 times with no luck. There does not seem to be any way to open Mail without going through the rebuild which always fails. I'm happy to set up Mail again but can't get around Mail auto-transfer process. I've checked for updates to Yosemite and there aren't any. Any suggestions on how to get around this and get Mail set up?

I have the same problem
I try dofferent ways to solve it but nothing works

Strange prob, can login only at the end of install, it fails after restart

Hi Every body
I have this strange problem, i don't know where i'm making mistake.
I installed EBS more than 5 times, thought i have made some mistake with pre-installation requirement or post installation requireement, but every time i'm faced with the same problem.
My machine configuration is P4, 3.0GHz, Ram 1 GB, 240 GB HD. with RHEL4 installed. Have created dba usergroup and created user oracle and applmgr made them part of dba group.
I'm doing multi-user installation for Vision Demo data. Logged in as root.
i created a top level directory /sz1/oracle and changed the permission as chmod -R 777 /sz1/oracle
applied pre-installation patch 4198954 as root
verified other pre-installation requirements as per installation guide.
downloaded latest rapidwiz as per note p4159029.
Started installation as root
specified 'oracle' as owner for DATABASE
specified 'applmgr' as owner for APPLICATION
the installation completed with successfull checks on pre-installation requirements and post-installation checks.
After the completion of installation, i logged in from windows client using the path,
http://sri.shan.com:8001
i get the installer home page, i chose the application links and logged in to OAM as sysadmin, verified the status. found concurrent manager was not started.
started the concurrent manager manually by running the script sh adcmctl.sh as root. the service started successfully.
then i re-started the Linux box, logged in as root and tried to run the script adstrtal.sh like
<COMN_TOP>/admin/scripts/VIS_<hostname>/sh adstrtal.sh APPS/APPS
i get the following error message, it is same in all 5 times of installation

Instalation process FAIL after 100% file copy process

I'm installing oracle 8i , in the tipical intalation and after the copy process end, before the configuration process, i got the message bellow:
THREAD ALARM Q:
sys_thread_t 0x4338ce0c timeout 17ms
sys_thread_t 0x42932e0c timeout 49ms

You should contact support for these types of issues. I'm just guessing (it's all that I can do without a lot of analysis of reports and an exact description of what was done): The extract process could be looking for files that were removed from the system, and has to be manually repositioned (from the extract process, run info "detail" and "showch"). It's possible that by deleting (or moving) archive logs from the source system, and if extract hadn't processed them yet, then you may have missed some data that needed to be replicated. But that is just a guess. I don't think there is any way you're going to be able to get an issue like this resolved without someone looking at and analyzing what has been done, what was moved where, and deciding (carefully) what steps to take next.

Are others finding AAMEE 3.0 install packages failing on Macs

I'm able to create install packages with AAMEE 3.0 without issue. However, when I go to install the packages on machines (so far, through no automated process), I get an "The installation failed" screen.

To continue on w/ the original question/problem, I've been having issues, too. After making my package, I see 2 types of failures. One has the installer pausing at about 1/8 or so in the progress and the time remaining increases. This never clears out and you have to force quit the installer. I've let it sit there and have it climb it to over an hour w/o the progress bar moving. The other problem involves the failed install which will happen within about 7-10 seconds. It will go through the progress bar quickly and finish w/ a failed install message. My packages do have the "Ignore conflicting process" box checked.
One thing I noticed that helped me get around this 7-10 second failed install this morning did not make sense to me. I did 3 machines w/ the Photoshop CS6 package I created by copying the package over ARD to the desktop of the machine and running it. The 4th machine I copied the same package off of a local server and it would repeatedly fail during the installation (7-10 second failure). Finally when I copied it via ARD and running it, it did work. Anybody ever see this? I'm not doing the ARD Install package feature. Just a copy.
Also, any clue on my first type of failure w/ stuck installer?
Thanks!

Installing extension fails - CS5 Mac

I downloaded the 3D "Materials" extensions (materials.zxp) for PSE/CS5 and it failed to install with the following error:
I am indeed the Administrator (there is no other user). I have fixed permissions and still get this problem. Running OSX 10.5.8.

This extension would install some files into <Photoshop CS5 installation folder>/Presets/Materials folder. Could you check whether you have permission to create file under that folder?
I think you can check it by:
1. Go to Photoshop CS5 installation folder. Default it should be /Applications/Adobe Photoshop CS5.
2. Go to sub folder Presets->Materials.
3. Try to create a new file under this folder. (Copying a file to this folder will do)
If you can't create a new file under this folder, you need to change the permission of this folder. Then try to install the extension again.

Trouble re-installing lightroom 5 after Mac crashed

Help, I desperately need my Lightroom 5, but no matter how I try to re-install it - from link adobe sent or from disc - all I get is "An error occurred when attempting to change modules". This is the first thing you see after entering the serial numbers. It looks different and nothing works. I have talked to chat at least 3 times and they finally admitted they know nothing. Can't talk to anyone by phone. So much for support for Lightroom.

Why can't you talk to anyone on the phone?
There are a number of possible causes for this. Not sure what happened with the Mac crash, but my first guess is that user permissions are currently messed up as a result. Try creating a new user account and see if you can launch Lightroom there.

StopWeblogic.sh and startWeblogic.sh fail after weblogic password changed

Hello,
We had to change the password for the weblogic user and after the change the stop start script are failing. I was reading that if boot.properties file is present, the start/stop scripts do not ask for the weblogic credentials. I could see the boot.properties file under the domain directory but the contents are encrypted. How can we resolve this? Any help is appreciated.
Regards.

the simplest solution is
- either delete the boot.properties; weblogic will ask you the credentials at the next start
- or edit manually the boot.properties, inserting non-encrypted values; weblogic will encrypt the password at the next start

Trust Relationship between PC and Domain broken\failed after System Restore

We are currently faced with a problem that every time we do a System Restore on our Windows 7 workstation, upon login attempt, we an login failed because the Trust Relationship between PC and Domain is broken.
As solution: we have to log in as a local admin, remove the workstation account from the domain, then re-add the workstation back to the domain.
Does anybody know if there is a hotfix for this or how we can bypass having to remove and re-add the workstation to the domain in order to login?

Have you checked on when the computer last checked in and changed the computer account password with the domain? When a computer changes it's password, Active Directory will store only the current password and it does not expire. The workstation
will store both the current password and the previous password. This for cases when you may restore Active Directory to a point before the computer password change.
To handle this, the workstation will try it's current password, then it's previous.
If you're restoring the workstation to a previous point in time, you may be rolling the stored passwords back too far for Active Directory to accept. I would only imagine this to be the case a handful of times if you're going back 1-2 days.
Are you experiencing 100% failure?

Keyboard and trackpad temporarily unresponsive after mac is woken from sleep or battery runs out

I am having problems after my battery runs out completely or when I open my macbook a day later with the battery charged. If my battery runs out, after I plug it in and turn it on, the first thing that appears is the login page and there is a dark grey background instead of my normal blurred background, and the user picture is shifted to the right. After I enter my password a small white bar at the bottom loads and my normal login page loads, but this time my keyboard and trackpad are unresponsive. I have to wait for the display to go to sleep, close my macbook and then open it for my keyboard and trackpad to work. Sometimes I have to repeat this process more than once. The same thing happens when I wake up my computer with full battery after a nights sleep, and instead of being able to wake it up just by opening the lid I have to turn it on with the power button. Please help I know this isn't normal behavior. I have already reset the SMC and PRAM with no success and this problem was there before and after I upgraded from Mavericks to Yosemite.
Thanks

I'm having same issue with my PB as Scott. Much appriciated if someone could help.

Problems waking up and connecting to internet after MAC Software updates.

My Intel Macbook laptop use to connected to the internet automatically when I turned it on the laptop or woke it up. Now after the last MAC software upgrade this week (which included iTune, iPhoto, MAC 10.4.9 and an Airport upgrade) my PC is having problems connecting to the internet.
It attempts to connect but can't. I end up playing with the settings in Airport internet connections – e.g turning Airport on and off, going to NETWORK -Other and reentering the Network name and wireless security passphrase. Most of the time I have to go into System Preferences – Network and play with these settings e.g. Changing Locations, playing with the network status and eventually, magically it connects and stays connected until the next time I wake up my laptop.
The wireless Macbook laptop is connected to a DLINK Wireless Router (DI-624), using WPA-PSK security. I have tried rebooting both the laptop and the router a number of time and even redid the setting on both the router and laptop.
Is there something else I can check/do??? Can I undo any of the MAC Software updates (thinking about the Airport one)??? I would really like to get back to connecting to the internet automatically.
Thanks.
Macbook Mac OS X (10.4.9)

Yeah, the 169.254 addy means it isn't getting a DHCP reply, so it's not connected to anything at all.
Is that Interface dragged to the top of Network>Show?Network Port Configurations and checked ON?
The Interface that connects to the Internet, needs to be drug to the top of Network Port Configurations.
Yes those files get recreated on reboot, (unless critical pieces of the OS are missing for it's defaults), but you don't have to trash/delete them, you can just drag them to the desktop!
But after hearing the latest I might try...
/Users/nnnn/Library/Preferences... the whole Prefs folder there.
/Library/Preferences/SystemConfiguration... the whole SysConfig folder.
/Library/Preferences/com.apple.sharing.firewall.plist
/Library/Preferences/com.apple.AppleFileServer.plist
Reboot... of course you dont have to trash them, you can just move them to the desktop to drag back if it doesn't work.
