Adobe products work properly with my new iMac.  Why?

I recently purchased a new iMac and none of my Adobe products work properly with it.  I can't click on a PDF and have it open automatically.  I have to open it through Adobe Reader.  Same with my Adobe Photoshop CS.  I can't open an iPhoto image through Photoshop (iPhoto folder is grayed out); I have to drag it over from the iPhoto window to a new Photoshop document of the exact size in order to open it up.  Do I need to reinstall my Adobe applications?

Same with my Adobe Photoshop CS.  I can't open an iPhoto image through Photoshop (iPhoto folder is grayed out); I have to drag it over from the iPhoto window to a new Photoshop document of the exact size in order to open it up.
You've obviously updated from a quite old version of iPhoto. It's been this way since 2007.
1. Accessing the files in the iPhoto Library has never been supported on any version of iPhoto. If you want to edit the pics with Photoshop then you set it as an External Editor. Dragging to Photoshop or accessing via the Library folders simply do not work with iPhoto as the image in the iPhoto Window does not reflect the changes you have made.
You can set Photoshop (or any image editor) as an external editor in iPhoto. (Preferences -> General -> Edit Photo: Choose from the Drop Down Menu.) This way, when you double click a pic to edit in iPhoto it will open automatically in Photoshop or your Image Editor, and when you save it it's sent back to iPhoto automatically. This is the only way that edits made in another application will be displayed in iPhoto.

  • Which version of Adobe Flash works properly with Mac operating systems?

    http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=no0Fn_gIoCo
    On Xat Flash Chatrooms it freezes. I thought Adobe Flash Beta 12 would fix my problem of the chats animations and chat freezing but it only temporarily fixed it because when I rebooted my Mac it still freezes the animation and chat! The latest versions of Adobe Flash non-beta Adobe Flash 11 something freezes too! Which specific Version of ADOBE Flash works properly on Mac OSX? NONE?
    I'm on Safari Browser and Mavericks 10.9 OSX.
    Specs:
    Haswell 3.4ghz
    graphics card: gtx 760
    4 gigs of ddr3 ram
    Macbook 2009: My other mac that does it too
    Intel duo 2 core 2.13ghz
    4gigs ddr2 ram
    I believe my macbook is running Nvidia 9400m 250mb card
    So each Mac that has had this problem is running Nvidia tho I don't know if thats the problem and I doubt it is. I'm sure it's a bug in Adobe Flash and Apple not caring enough to address the problems with Adobe Flash not working properly. If the two companies can't get a long, then why doesn't apple spend a little bit of money making their own compatible Flash for their safari browser?
    My friend who is a girl that I talked to on Xat said that she has a Macbook I think from 2010 or 2011 running Mavericks and her Macbook does not freeze. Is there an explanation to why my Macbook 2009 freezes in Adobe Flash and if there's a solution to it? Is her Macbook running ati card maybe?
    This is becoming very frustrating, so I need a solution. It does this on my Macbook and my Desktop Mac both which have Nvidia gpus.

    The latest Flash 11 works fine for me on Mavericks, on every site that plays videos.
    I have no idea what Xat Flash Chatrooms is (and really have no interest), but it sounds like the issue is with that site, as Flash in general works for literally tens of millions of people on most other sites.

  • Why does my google toolbar not work properly with the new updates. It was such a convenience to use the old toolbar to go to places I had visited before. Now I cannot get those old addresses with anything but Firefox 3.62 or whatever.

    Why does Google Toolbar not work with the newer versions of Firefox.

    Google have stopped supporting Google Toolbar on the latest versions of Firefox. Apparently one of the reasons for this decision is that modern browsers already tend to support many of the functions that google toolbar provides.
    Firefox does allow you to specifically bookmark sites you have chosen, and also automatically remembers many of the sites you visit.

  • I installed indesign CS5 on new macbook pro and keeps freezing with spinning wheel once the app opens. Is there an issue with OS Mav or font issue or a plist I can pull. All other Adobe products work.

    Migration should never be done with any Adobe program.
    If you have done Migration, you have to UNINSTALL first (if even possible) and then download Adobe Creative Cloud Cleaner Tool and run that also. When this is done, restart your computer and install the programs from an original Adobe Installer.
    Other question is, if your OS is supporting that version. You can try it, it is not officially supported, but it might work.
    But CC will work, upgrade to CC2014 (without additional cost), use that as it is better anyway.

  • Does PPBM6 work properly with Adobe's free trial CS6 download?

    Does PPBM6 work properly with Adobe's free trial download of Premiere Pro CS6?
    Does the CS6 download include the 6.0 level release, or is it the latest version (or at least download patchable to the latest version)?
    If anyone has actually done exactly this, please share your experience?
    Thanks,
    Jim

    Randall,
    Just a snippet from my mail to Bill about testing results up to now:
    MPEG2 results appear to be dependent not on number of cores, but on amount of memory, next to the video card and maybe memory controller. How else would your SB be faster than your 980 with the same video card and 4 cores versus 6? I think 32 GB versus 24 GB is the differentiating factor here, as well as the memory controller on the SB, or am I trying to find explanations that are not there?
    Disk I/O is purely a matter of sustained transfer rates. Number of cores is irrelevant here. I don't have sufficient data yet to determine whether amount of memory will be influential, but I assume there is a lower limit when the results will further decrease. We are talking about a 37,092 MB file being written to disk and the sustained transfer rate can be negatively influenced by a limited amound of memory.
    MPEG2-DVD as shown above.
    H.264 is mainly a factor of number of cores, size of the L3 cache, amount and speed of the memory and clock speed.
    MPE Gain is a resultant calculated number. It is hard to interpret, I admit, but in general you will see that the better a system is performing, the lower the Gain figure. Very fast systems can handle software MPEG2-DVD encoding quite well, slower systems struggle with that task, but with hardware MPE even slower systems achieve around the same figure as faster systems and the consequence is that slower systems show a higher gain.
    Further notice that the new Total Time figure is only the sum of Disk I/O + MPEG2-DVD + H.264-BR. In the PPBM5 test we included the rendering test as well, but since we no longer use that, it is no longer a part of the Total score. Also, the weighing of test results to calculate the RPI has been adjusted for this new test.
    Hope this gives some informative background info.

  • I am a newbie...and I think I did a big no-no as my Ipad isn't working.  I synced it to a second computer at work which is a new Imac after already syncing to my pc at home with Itunes.  Now it says it can't restore and can't get it to open.  HELP!

  • Error 150:30 had to move to larger hard drive.  Once migrated to new hard drive none of my adobe products work

    I recently upgraded to a new larger hard drive.  In migrating everything over things seem to have worked out well, but non of my adobe products work any more.  I get the message error #150:30 What can I do?  If I reinstall each of these software packages, will I loose my templates, brushes and so forth?

    Migrating software programs from one machine or HD seldom works.  You need to actually *install* software from downloads or installation disks.  You don't mention which product ver you have.
    Run the CS or CC Cleaner Tools below to wipe all traces of Adobe products from your HD.  Then re-install the customary way.
    Use the CC Cleaner Tool to solve installation problems | CC, CS3-CS6
    Typically you only need to deactivate if you had previously installed your products on 2 machines.  Creative Cloud software installed on a 3rd machine will deactivate the previous installations.
    If needed, Live Chat is the best way to reach Customer Care.  Agent availability varies by region and time zone.

  • Google News doesn't work properly with Safari 5.1.4

    Has anyone else noticed that Google News doesn't work properly with Safari 5.1.4?

    Thank you for your response.  The more I use 5.1.4 the more problems I am seeing.  There are problems with images and layout.  I would like to back up to 5.1.3 but the system won't let me. At present I a looking for a solution, or I might just start using Firefox.

  • I am having trouble making TM work with my new iMac.

    I'm having trouble making TM work with my new iMac.  I have an external drive, Freeagent GoFlex Drive, that is recognized on the desktop and in the drive utility.  Time machine just "spins it's wheels" and doesn't seem to transfer any information.  I have run repair disk on both drives and repair permissions.  Any ideas how I can make this thing work?

    Did you format the HD first. It has to be formatted to Mac OS Extended (Journaled). If you're not sure how to do this please read:

  • Will AppleWorks work with my new iMac?

    Hi,
    I just purchased a new iMac / 24", 2.8 GHz, CD2, and I was just wondering if my old AppleWorks disc 6.2.9. will work with the new iMac. I am currently running 10.5.6.
    Or should I use the new iWork instead?
    Any information anyone could provide would be most helpful.
    John

    Hi John,
    AppleWorks will run well on your new iMac.
    Whether you should switch completely to iWork depends on what parts of AppleWorks you use.
    iWork's biggest deficiency (as noted in Yvan's signature line) is the lack of a database application. If you use AppleWorks's database module, there is nothing in iWork that will replaces it (although iWork '09 does have some list management and merge capabilities). You may also find some difficulty transfering Paint and Draw documents.
    Other than that, the change should be pretty easy. iWork applications will open AppleWorks 6 Word Processing (Pages), Spreadsheet (Numbers) and Presentation (Keynote) documents. They will not open AW Draw, Paint or Database documents. Nor will they open any AW documents made with AW 5 or any version of ClarisWorks.
    Best route:
    -Install AW 6.2.9 on the iMac using the installer disk or by moving the whole AppleWorks 6 folder from one machine to the other. Remember to remove AW from the old machine to stay within the single user terms of your AW licence.
    -Download and install the 30 day trial of iWork '09.
    -Spend some time over the next 30 days getting familiar with the iWork applications, then make your decision.
    Regards,
    Barry

  • My garage band will not work properly with new lion upgrade..HELP

    My garage band will not work properly with new lion upgrade..HELP
    I have tried to open old session i have done in garage band and many of the effects and instruments I have used will not show up. The system seems to have a bug.

    If the graphical user interface looks broken, that is quite often a problem of corrupted user preferences - have you tried to remove the preferences file, as described in the FAQ
    http://www.bulletsandbones.com/GB/FAQPages/OddBallProbs.html
    Here is again the short version:
    Quit GarageBand, if it is running.
    Open your User Library in the Finder. It is hidden in MacOS X Lion, so use the Finder's "Go" menu:
    Finder > GO    hold down the "Options" key, until the library appears in the menu, select it.
    In the window that opens, open the folder "Preferences" and remove the file:com.apple.garageband.plist and com.apple.garageband.plist.lockfile
    Then try again to run GarageBand and download the loops.
    The preferences file stores all you user settings that you set using the "Preferences" panel in GarageBand, also the layout of the GarageBand window and the location of your recent projects. You will have to enter these settings again after removing the file.
    Regards
    Léonie

    There's iOS apps for iOS which is what iPods, iPads, and iPhones use.  Then there are Mac Apps (which is a different store) which is what run on a computer with OSX.
