  • Adobe Bridge CC (64 bit) shows in my Start menu but will not open.

    Adobe Bridge CC (64 bit) showed installed on my Start menu and on the apps CC section.
    I cannot open Bridge from either the Start Menu or the File Menu on CC PS CS6.
    I'm on Windows 7, 64 Bit.
    I also can no longer use Print Maintenance functions on my non CC PS CS5 version.

    Make sure you do not have a previous version of Bridge running in the background.  Only one version can run at a time.
    Open Task Mangaer and click on processes tab.  Look for and close and bridge.exe.

    Had to reinstall lion because of my error, but now a lot of apps. are showing up on my dock as question marks and will not open.

    Ive gotten the question mark icon thing, and I just took them off the dock and redragged them onto the dock from the Applications folder again and they worked fine.  Mine were a couple of game type programs nothing major yet.  Just wanted to throw that out there though since I had that happen with a few dock icons.

  • The preference icon has a question mark on it and will not open

    I would venture that one of the torrent files you downloaded has a big black ? mark for an icon.

  • Adobe Acrobat X Pro gets corrupted and will not open

    After a month or so Adobe acrobat gets corrupted and will not open, so I have to uninstall it and reinstall it again. I am using windows 8 64bit professional version. Even the updates did not solve the problem.

    The advantage of the repair if it works is that you don't have to repeat the updates. AA X is currently at 10.1.7. The best way to do the updates is typically from the Help>Updates selection. They can also be downloaded from http://www.adobe.com/support/downloads/product.jsp?product=1&platform=Windows (or MAC equivalent) and installed in order -- most are not cummulative.

  • After reloading adobe creative suite cs3 on my mac 10.4.11 acrobat will not open any pdfs it previously opened. help!

    after reloading adobe creative suite cs3 on my mac 10.4.11 acrobat will not open any pdfs it previously opened. help!

    hello.   hey, thanks very much for writing back.  i got some good info with a search or two.  (info about what regedit is and what corresponds to it in OS X -- regedit allows you to edit "preference" keys for individual programs,  OSX's equivalent for these keys are the .plists in User & System: Preferences and Application Support)
    what i ended up doing was uninstalling Premiere Pro (not the suite, just PPro).   Then i deleted a few preference files:
    from User /Preferences/Adobe:
    com.adobe.AdobePremierePro.plist
    com.Adobe.Premiere Pro.5.0.plist
    and from System Preferences:
    the file:  Adobe Premiere Pro Prefs
    and..
    /.../Premiere Pro/5.0/...
    AMEPrefs.xml     (i noticed that there's also a preference file in Media Encoder's own folder so i didn't sweat this one)
    Debug Database.txt
    Placeholder Preset.epr
    PostEncodeCmds.pref
    PresetCache.xml
    Trace Database.txt
    NOTE:
    of course i don't know if deleting any files beyond the 2 .plist files in User Prefs was necessary, but...  it seems to have worked.
    I then reinstalled Premiere Pro CS5, and fired up an old project and i've got playback of HD and DV files, and snappy editing and rendering,  so hopefully i'm good to go.   I'm just going to stick with v5.0.0 because i actually don't remember ever having any trouble with it, and i don't remember v5.0.4 adding anything i was 'missing' or 'needed'
    hopefully, this thread will be useful for any future folks that run into trouble - and it's got a solution for both Windows and OS X
    happy editing,
    peace

  • My iphoto has a transparent question mark over it and will not open. How do I fix this?

    My iphoto on my imac will not open. It has a transparent question mark over it...how do I fix it?

    Is the question mark on the Dock at the bottom of your screen? Then it means that the Dock can't find the application.
    To re-install iPhoto
    1. Put the iPhoto.app in the trash (Drag it from your Applications Folder to the trash)
    2a: On 10.5:  Go to HD/Library/Receipts and remove any pkg file there with iPhoto in the name.
    2b: On 10.6: Those receipts may be found as follows:  In the Finder use the Go menu and select Go To Folder. In the resulting window type
    /var/db/receipts/
    2c: on 10.7 they're at
    /private/var/db/receipts
    A Finder Window will open at that location and you can remove the iPhoto pkg files.
    3. Re-install.
    If you purchased an iLife Disk, then iPhoto is on it.
    If iPhoto was installed on your Mac when you go it then it’s on the System Restore disks that came with your Mac. Insert the first one and opt to ‘Install Bundled Applications Only.
    If you purchased it on the App Store you can find it in your Purchases List.

  • Ical appears translucent in dock and will not show events when opened

    Has anyone recently experienced iCal appearing translucent in the dock? This is weird and just recently started happening. Once iCal is launched it appears normal in the dock but goes back to translucent when I quit. Our MacBook Pro is brand new just a few weeks old and all the software is up to date. Also, even weirder, suddenly the events are not showing up in the month view when launched. I can go back to December and then move to January and then they appear. I made sure that the preferences are checked to show times and that in View "show the to do list" is selected. Whenever it has been launched the calendar is blank and will only show events after view or preferences have been manipulated. Any help would be appreciated..

    kkovardfd,
    Welcome to Apple Discussions.
    Do you have any duplicate fonts? If so, make sure to resolve duplicates with Font Book.
    Remove the iCal icon from the Dock, and replace it with the iCal Application located in your Applications folder.
    Open System Preferences...>Language & Text>Formats> and set/re-set your appropriate "Region."
    After deleting the iCal plist, also delete the com.apple.Dock.plist, log out/in from your account, or restart the computer. Your Dock will revert to default appearance.

  • When I close Firefox, it closes on my desktop, but when I try to open it again, it appears to think that it is already open and will not open--even in safe mode.

    The only way I seem to be able to reopen Firefox is to reboot the computer, which, needless to say, is not a very helpful choice. Is this a common problem? I am running Windows 7.

    Hi,
    The Reset Firefox feature can fix many issues by restoring Firefox to its factory default state while saving your essential information.
    Note: ''This will cause you to lose any Extensions, Open websites, and some Preferences.''
    To Reset Firefox do the following:
    #Go to Firefox > Help > Troubleshooting Information.
    #Click the "Reset Firefox" button.
    #Firefox will close and reset. After Firefox is done, it will show a window with the information that is imported. Click Finish.
    #Firefox will open with all factory defaults applied.
    Further information can be found in the [[Reset Firefox – easily fix most problems]] article.
