After installing Yosemite and the Pages upgrade, I am unable to open Pages '09 (v. 4.3). Any suggestions?

Pages '09 won't open in Yosemite

Please update Firefox to 3.6.17 a.s.a.p. the reason being that there was a security breach at Comodo which is an SSL certificate provider recently whereby a number of fraudulent certificates were inadvertently issued. These allow a hacker to impersonate any site including online banking and the Firefox version you're running at the moment will not warn you that the site is a fake. The fraudulent certificates were blacklisted in v3.6.17 and beyond.

After installing yosemite and the latest version of iPhoto all my photos want missing. I have tried everything but my library is empty. Why on earth apple changed iPhoto. It wasn't broken who fix it. I am seriously consider to get ríd of my iMac

Yosemite made all my photos dissapear

Which version of iPhoto did you upgrade from? What happens when you try to launch iPhoto? Do you get any warnings, when iPhoto upgraded the library?
I have tried everything but my library is empty.
What have you tried already?
Where did you store your iPhoto library? On an external drive or your system drive?
iPhoto will create a new, empty library, if it cannot open or find your previous iPhoto library.
If you upgraded from iPhoto '08 or earlier, the iPhoto library needs to be prepared with iPhoto Library Upgrader. See this link: iPhoto '11: About the Library Upgrader
If you got error messages during the upgrade of the library, restore your iPhoto Library from your most current backup.

Pictures disappeared after installing Yosemite and new Iphoto. Why

Pictures disappeared after installing Yosemite and new Iphoto. Why ?

I also started having problems with iPhoto after installing Yosemite. Some of the Event collections lost the picture and just has a grey square in its place. When I click on the Event, it shows a white dotted lined square for each picture and if I click on the picture, it shows an exclamation mark.
Check, if you also are having a folder "Old Masters" inside the iPhoto Library package, as described by Muhamad Abdulkadir.
Ctrl-click (or right-click) your iPhoto Library in the Pictures folder , then select "Show Package Contents". If you are seeing a folder "Old Masters", copy this folder out of the library. Look inside - are the original image files of the problematic photos inside?
Are any photos in your "Masters"folder?

Thanks so much for the detailed instructions...but they didn't seem to work.
At this point I've erased the drive and reinstalled Yosemite. I haven't brought any files or applications back in yet, but things are still moving really slow. Here's my latest EntreCheck report. Any insight would be very helpful.

Pages, numbers, iPhoto, iMovie and keynote will not update after installing yosemite and yes I have the original disk

How do I get pages, numbers, keynote, iPhoto and iMovie to update after installing OS X 10.10? I have the original disk.

Cancel the updates. Delete the apps. Redownload them from the Purchases tab in the App Store.

Slow to load after downloading Yosemite and have already upgraded to 6 GB 2007 IMAC

2007 IMAC upgraded to 6GB 667Mhz , have cleaned website information and reloaded Flash. Is there anything more I can do? Can I return to an earlier software if I cannot get this to load quickly? Thank you in advance

You can downgrade but only be erasing the drive and installing the older version from an installer or a clean backup.
Try these in order testing your system after each to see if it's back to normal:
1. a. Resetting your Mac's PRAM and NVRAM
    b. Intel-based Macs: Resetting the System Management Controller (SMC)
2. Restart the computer in Safe Mode, then restart again, normally. If this doesn't help, then:
Boot to the Recovery HD: Restart the computer and after the chime press and hold down the COMMAND and R keys until the Utilities menu screen appears. Alternatively, restart the computer and after the chime press and hold down the OPTION key until the boot manager screen appears. Select the Recovery HD and click on the downward pointing arrow button.
3. Repair the Hard Drive and Permissions: Upon startup select Disk Utility from the Utilities menu. Repair the Hard Drive and Permissions as follows.
When the recovery menu appears select Disk Utility. After DU loads select your hard drive entry (mfgr.'s ID and drive size) from the the left side list. In the DU status area you will see an entry for the S.M.A.R.T. status of the hard drive. If it does not say "Verified" then the hard drive is failing or failed. (SMART status is not reported on external Firewire or USB drives.) If the drive is "Verified" then select your OS X volume from the list on the left (sub-entry below the drive entry,) click on the First Aid tab, then click on the Repair Disk button. If DU reports any errors that have been fixed, then re-run Repair Disk until no errors are reported. If no errors are reported click on the Repair Permissions button. Wait until the operation completes, then quit DU and return to the main menu. Select Restart from the Apple menu.
4. Reinstall Yosemite: Reboot from the Recovery HD. Select Reinstall OS X from the Utilities menu, and click on the Continue button.
Note: You will need an active Internet connection. I suggest using Ethernet if possible
            because it is three times faster than wireless.
5. Reinstall Yosemite from Scratch:
Be sure you backup your files to an external drive or second internal drive because the following procedure will remove everything from the hard drive.
How to Clean Install OS X Yosemite
Note: You will need an active Internet connection. I suggest using Ethernet if possible
            because it is three times faster than wireless.

After downloading Yosemite and the newest iPhoto, I get the message "The iPhoto Library is locked, on a locked disk, or you do not have permission to make changes to it." iPhoto will not even open

Just downloaded OSX10.10 - Yosemite. iPhoto said it needed to be updated, which I did. Upon trying to boot up iPhoto, I received the following message: "The iPhoto Library is locked, on a locked disk, or you do not have permission to make changes to it." iPhoto will not even open

I'm a bit of a noob but this worked - I right-clicked iPhoto and chose the top option "iPhoto Library". I didn't note the message that appeared, but it was something like
telling me I needed to upgrade iPhoto Library for it to work with my new version of iPhoto
cautioned me that it could take a while, and
once I upgraded it couldn't revert back to an earlier version.
So - I asked it to upgrade, it did, and once it finished iPhoto opened and now works!
I suppose why we could wonder why it wasn't included or mentioned in the original iPhoto upgrade, but this was probably more character-forming...

I had the same UEFI partions after installing Ubuntu, and the Diskpart suggestion didn't work!

I have a system with a 128 GB SSD, and a WD15EARS drive. I was hoping to install Windows 8.1 PRO on a 90 Gig partition and the 64 bit version of Ubuntu 14.04 on the 30 Gig partition, and put all of the data and apps on the Western Digital Drive. This is
a brand new system using a Gigabyte B85M-D3H motherboard, 8 Gig Kingston HyperX 1600 Mhz RAM, and an i3-4330 3.5 GHz processor. My BIOS is set to UEFI and Legacy setting by default. I had previously had Windows 8.1 PRO and Ubuntu 14.04 working in a dual boot
configuration but found out I was running the 32 bit version.
I got rid of Ubuntu 32 bit by deleting the partition it was installed on and cleaning up with the Disk Manager from Windows. I created NTFS volumes on the affected partitions and downloaded the 64 bit version of the Ubuntu 14.04 .iso! The first time I tried
to burn a disk, it wasn't bootable, so I downloaded Imgburn and created a bootable CD. I ran the TRY 1st, but when I chose install the program did not recognized that Windows 8.1 Pro was previously installed. It wanted to install to the 90 Gig partition on
my SSD drive (which is where Windows 8.1 PRO) was installed. I manually redirected the install to the Western Digital Drive and the install proceeded until completion.
It was obvious that since Ubuntu did not recognize the previous install of Windows, the Computer rebooted into Ubuntu. This is almost identical to another situation listed.
The solution given was to open an administrative command line and issue the following:
DISKPART
RESCAN
LIST DISK
SELECT DISK #
LIST PARTITION
SELECT PARTITION x
DELETE PARTITION OVERRIDE ; and I received the following
Virtual disk service error; Delete is not allowed on the Current Boot, System, Pagefile, Crashdump, or Hybernation Volume.
is there any tool that wil wipe partitions no matter what?

Hi,
The reason why you encountered this error is that the partition you wanted to delete is "system" partition, marked as "Active", it contains files to boot into system, so you can't delete it with the command.
And here're some useful links about dual boot Windows 8/8.1 and Ubuntu.

When I go to Safari the page locks up...any suggestions ?

When I go to Safari the page loads, but then locks. Any suggestions ?

Try clearing Safari's cache : Settings > Safari > Clear Cache (and Clear History)
If that doesn't work then try closing Safari completely and then re-open it : from the home screen (i.e. not with Safari 'open' on-screen) double-click the home button to bring up the taskbar, then press and hold any of the apps on the taskbar for a couple of seconds or so until they start shaking, then press the '-' in the top left of the Safari app to close it, and touch any part of the screen above the taskbar so as to stop the shaking and close the taskbar.
A third option is a reset : press and hold both the sleep and home buttons for about 10 to 15 seconds (ignore the red slider), after which the Apple logo should appear - you won't lose any content, it's the iPad equivalent of a reboot.

At times my mac starts typing on its own and the only way i can stop it is to disconnect from power source. any suggestions?

This is my first Mac, so I am not sure if I have missed something along the way. I really would appreciate any suggestions.....

Hi Chris, did you solve it?
I only ask because today, for the first time, I had the appearance of a stuck key for a couple of minutes but I don't think I was even touching the keyboard, I suppose it could conceivably have been caused by a rogue biscuit crumb or something, but coincidentally it was the same key that you reported, the period key typing..............................................................
There's some related problems here:

Just installed Firefox, and the page won't load. It says unable to connect. Already deleted and reinstalled and followed some tips on the website. It's still not working? Help.

I downloaded Firefox 4 on another laptop without issue (it has windows 7). I downloaded it again on another computer (a lil older with Windows Vista) and it wouldn't open from the very beginning. I fixed the firewall as stated in the help section. I also updated the internet connection settings as stated in the help section. I also deleted and reinstalled it twice, but nothing still works. :-(

Did you ever fix this, because I am having the same problem

I am trying to open a website that is using Microsoft content viewer, and the page does not show. Any ideas on how to view this site using firefox. It works on IE.

I am participating in an online class whose website uses Microsoft Content Viewer to view the class content. The browser opens a new page, but nothing is there. At the top of the tab it says Microsoft Content Viewer, and nothing else. Can anyone tell me how to view my course using Firefox? I would prefer not to use IE, but it works there.

When originally creating the pdf, you would need to choose another pdf conversion setting. In Word if you use the pdf menu, change your settings there: Adobe PDF > Change Conversion Settings. I would use High Quality Print instead. If you use the File > Print method, click the Properties button next to the Adobe PDF printer selection.
For your already created form, you can change the file so your users will not encounter issues. In Acrobat 9, which hopefully is similar in process to 8: Advanced > Preflight > Profile tab > PDF/A compliance > Remove PDF/A information.(You'll have to unsecure your form first).
You can read about PDF/A files in the Help.

Mac stuck restarting after installing Yosemite

My 2011 MBP has been stuck "restarting" for about an hour now after installing Yosemite. The striped loading bar is grey and stationary but the charcoal circle is spinning underneath. Any suggestions? Do I leave it run overnight and call support in the morning? Thankfully this happened after Midterms, but I'm afraid I'll lose everything if I turn it off. (I decided to upgrade on a whim...I know...and the last backup is from the beginning of the summer. :/ )

Same thing happened to me - except, of course, that I made a back-up before installing Yosemite. I could not get my machine to boot - it would get stuck exactly the same way as yours. I tried for hours - and nothing...
I finally wiped my HD and used time machine to install my latest back-up. Without such a back-up, I don't know what options you have. Your best bet is probably this:
Gray, Blue or White screen at boot, w/spinner/progress bar

Macbook Air Late 2010 display flickers after installing Yosemite

Hi !
I'm from Germany.
i have upgraded my Macbook Air, Late 2010 from Mountain Lion to Yosemite last Saturday.
The Installation works fine. At the first Time i have no problems, but:
One Day later i start my Macbook Air normally. Now the left side of the screen is flickering.
There are vertical lines to see. The right side of the integrated screen is ok.
i have resetted the SMC and the Power Management.
Please help, what can i do ?
Greetings

I noticed a similar issue with my MBA 2012 after installing Yosemite. The screen flickers slightly most of the time now. It's more noticeable with dark backgrounds. It almost 'vibrates' and is very annoying. Reminds me of an old monitor with a low refresh rate. I reset the SMC, PRAM, etc. and contacted Apple, who had me go through the same steps. The flickering is still present when booted into Recovery Mode. When I boot into Safe Mode the issue gets dramatically worse and I see screen artifacts like iRoGo describes -- parts of the screen blanking out, whole screen/parts of the screen flickering on and off, lines appearing, etc. It's basically unusable in Safe Mode.
At this point the issue seems to be hardware-related (i.e. issue persists in even in Recovery Mode), but I'm suspicious seeing that it manifested right after installing Yosemite. I will be bringing my MBA to Apple for service later this week...

No Apps listed in CC desktop manager after installing Yosemite.

Just installed Yosemite and the Apps tab of Creative Cloud is now blank. Am on a Macbook Pro. Thanks for any help =) Leah

Lawork please be aware by completing the following steps:
Nishant K: Now, get the Go to Folder again and type /library there and press return.
Nishant K: Go to Application Support/Adobe and delete the AAMUpdater folder there too.
You have now removed the update payloads for your installed Adobe Creative software.

After installing Yosemite and the Pages upgrade, I am unable to open Pages '09 (v. 4.3). Any suggestions?
