PSE9 & Win 8 - Get download failed messages when I update

I deinstalled PSE9 from my Win XP,installed in Win 8 and get download failed messages when I update (to 9.0.3 & Camera Raw 6.5). Pressing the error message i get to a screen 'Error "This serial number is not for a qualifying product..." when installing an upgrade or upsell' Adobe support asked me some qusetions via Chat and then told me to come here as they do not support older versions....can anyone help please?

I have since found out by googling that the two updates (9.0.3 & Camera Raw) can be applied as patches separately outside of PSE9, did that, worked fine and when I go into PSE9, help,updates it says I am upto date and more importantly I can now edit my Raw images.

I get the following message when opening itunes: "the registry settings used by the itunes drivers for importing and burning cd's and dvd's are missing. Downloading the latest version does no fix the problem

I'd start with the following document, with one modification. At step 12 after typing GEARAspiWDM press the Enter/Return key once prior to clicking OK. (Pressing Return adds a carriage return in the field and is important.)

I have had Adobe for several years and recently have had a consistent problem -- always getting an "error" message when I try to open PDFs.

What can I do to fix Adobe? I cannot open any PDFs, always getting an "error" message.

Adobe is a company with many products, which specific one are you talking
about? And what version of it? And what's your OS? And what exactly is
the error message you're getting?

Keep getting a failed message when trying to send sms to UK mobile

Why do I keep a failed message when trying to send a SMS to UK mobile

That would be a good place to start since SMS is strictly a carrier feature.

I get this error message when opening Firefox "onload error TypeError: TcFfUpdates.getTcPluginsInstance().getNewExtensionsList is not a function"

Each time I open Firefox I get the error message. I have unistalled the product, re-downloaded it and installed it with the same results. Otherwise the browser seems to work well.

Start Firefox in <u>[[Safe Mode]]</u> to check if one of the extensions is causing the problem (switch to the DEFAULT theme: Firefox (Tools) > Add-ons > Appearance/Themes).
*Don't make any changes on the Safe mode start window.

I keep getting this error message when trying any of the SHARE functions.

I seem to get the following message whenever I select any of the share destinations for my project. I am wanting to upload my finished project to youtube, bit I don't know what this error code meand or how to correct it. Help!
The operation could not be completed because an error occurred when creating frame 867 (error -1).
I am keen you upload this 2 min. film ASAP, but of course I can't due to this error and not knowing how to fix it. This error appears soon after it attempts the share process. All help gladly appreciated. Thanks in advance.

Thanks for your great suggestions. I have tried all that you suggested, but no joy. But what did the trick was actually dropping the format from 1080 to 720. Then doing a master file. Quitting and restarting FCP and flicking the project back to 1080p and sharing it again. Low and behold it worked and not an error message was seen. That is some kind of bug. So I am sorted and can now export the 1080p project in 1080p or whatever. I have no idea what went on, but it is now working. I hope my fluke of a tip helps someone who is at their wits end like I was. LOL Thanks again for your replies.

I get an error message when opening a secure website from a managed account

I get an error message that says that safari can't open a specific website, because it can't establish a secure connection. This is happening on a managed account with parental controls. It seems to only happen for secure sites. How can I fix this?

Hey daaveed,
Welcome to the Apple Support Communities. If this is happening to one or all websites you visit, check out the following article that will go over some steps to fix it.

Mac Pro accessing SMB shares on a windows server. After being left on all night, the MP gets "file unavailable" messages when opening files on the share.

Windows Server 2003 accessed by several PCs and Macs without previous incident. This one Mac Pro after it's been left on all night (running jobs, or just left idle), and a user tries to reconnect to an SMB share, can go to Finder, Go, Connect to Server, enter the Server info as normal, login as normal, view the directories and files as normal, but as soon as they try to open anything they are given one of the following messages:
"Word cannot open this document. The document might be in use, the document might not be a valid Word document, or the file name might contain invalid characters (for example, \ /). (<filename>)" - when opening a word document
"<filename> could not be found. Check the spelling of the file name and verify that the file location is correct. If you are trying to open the file from your list of most recently used files on the File menu, make sure that the file has not been renamed, moved, or deleted." - when opening an excel spreadsheet
Note that these messages are popping up AFTER the user has double-clicked on them to open them. So the files are certainly there and correctly named (and contain only letters, numbers and underscores). After restarting the Mac Pro, the error messages are gone and the files can be accessed without problem. Would like it so that they can connect to the server without having to restart every day.

Brand new SSD. Old drive went bad and no back-up. How do I go about formatting etc. with the new drive. I get a failed message when trying to partition or erase new drive to format.

Installed a new SSD as my other blew it's age. I have no back-up and need to format the new one. I go in and either partition or erase and get and error message. Please help.

Zachy,
It goes something like this...
Put your new drive in the enclosure. Use Disk Utility to format it, etc. I'd give it a slightly different name than the original. Let's say you have Old Disk and New Disk as your drive names. Use Carbon Copy Cloner to copy Old Disk to New Disk. Now you should have an exact copy, which you can test by rebooting and holding down the Option key. Choose New Disk from the list and let it boot, make sure all is well.
Shut down and physically swap the drives. Take Old Disk and put it in the enclosure. Now your system has a new disk with a lot more space and you can reformat your old disk and just use it for large files or whatever.

Quicktime crashes when opening any video file type.

Hi, I've been having this problem for quite a long time now. When attempting to open a quicktime file or any other type of video file, the program crashes. It does not report any sort of error message. I've updated both quicktime and windows. I've tried everything that has been suggested in prior posts and have yield no results. This is really irrating me. I don't want to have wasted money on this program and I need this for class. Any advice is appreciated, thank you.

The files I'm most concerned with playing are my animations exported from Final Cut and from another system's quicktime. These usually are quicktimes or .wma's that are either uncompressed or with a variety of compression, usually DV-NTSC, H.264, HDV 1080 60i, or mpeg4 for the web. But as I've professed before, it seem that the file type isn't necessarily factor. Any video file that should play in Quicktime does not and the program crashes. Upon this I get a very vague error message which reads "Quicktime Player has encountered a problem and needs to close. We are sorry for the inconvenience." That unfortunately is as much detail as I can give at the moment. I know this is a vague problem and that my information is just as vague, but that is all I have gathered. Anything is appreciated.

Getting an error message when opening a PDF being displayed in FF 24 in Adobe Acrobat XI

I have the very latest versions of FF and Adobe Acrobat Pro XI and FF Adobe Acorbat Plugin. When I open a PDF (regardless of size) and view it in FF then click the download button then select the option to open in Adobe Acrobat I get the error stating "There was an error opening this document. The file is damaged and could not be repaired. " If I download the file locally THEN open it usually works fine. This happens to me on both Mac and PC. Any suggestions? Thanks in advance

Have you reinstalled that plugin (Acrobat), or tried to use Firefox's bulit in PDF reader (PDF.js).
