Application conflicts?

I use CS4 all day, 5 days a week on Mac. I've been running into strange "errors" more and more lately.
It's very common for me to lose the functionality of my spacebar---like to quickly move around/zoom in and more frustrating, I lose the ability to move a crop as I am sizing it.
another problem is I lose live previews of how something is changing my image. ie no live preview for curves adjustment or shadow/highlight adjustment.
just recently; not only is the live preview gone, but the entire image goes white. even if I flatten the adjustment layer the image is all white, then if I zoom in and back out the image shows with the adjustment layer applied.
I've heard of conflicts with Entourage, so thats what I'm thinking....I have entourage open at all times, as well as firefox and safari.
does anyone know of any helpful information about my issues? thank you

Additionally to BearHNC’s proposed repairing of permissions it might be worth a try to trash prefs, validate fonts and perform other routine System maintenance tasks.
And do the problems occur with OpenGL turned on and off?

  • Application conflict

    Trying to install a Lide 210 scanner on my iMac (OSX 10.6.8). Comes up with a nonsence error message (release unlock button - which I have done). First reaction was faulty hardware (as per Canon guidelines if this happens) so I got a replacement - same problem so assumed they had a faulty batch. Purchased from another outlet and same problem. Then occured to me (duh) to try attaching to my laptop and it works fine on there - just my iMac. Spoke to Canon support and came to the conclusion that there was an application conflict. So... where to now? What's the best way of going about isolating an application conflict? Is there any software I can use to help me out?

  • My application conflicts with another Measurement Studio based application.

    Hi,
    Our instrument is made by a third party, and they appear to use Measurement Studio in the development of their control software.
    We use Measurement Studio when developing our test software. When we install our test application on a production machine (no programming environment installed), we sometimes get a message about only being able to use controls for 5 minutes in an "evaluation-only" mode.
    It is clear that there are some library file revision conflicts, e.g.: in cwui.ocx and presumably others. The third party is using a slightly different revision of these files to ourselves. What is the the best way to consistently resolve these conflicts?
    Thanks,
    Richard Brockie

    Hi Richard Brockie,
    You are correct in assuming there is a conflict with cwui.ocx.
    If the target computer does not have Measurement Studio, it will not contain the .ocx and .dll files required for the executable to run. Microsoft Visual Studio .NET has a Setup and Deployment Projects type that allows you to create a MSI installer that finds all of the dependencies for the project and then installs them on the target machine when the setup is executed.
    I've included the following link that demonstrates the process of creating an installer for a Windows application, using .NET or Active X controls.

  • Default application conflict / bug (Pages + TextEdit)

    TextEdit is stuck as the default application for for .pages documents. It stays on the default application place above the separator, but Pages (or whatever else I try to set as the actual default application) gets the (default) parenthesis. It's possible to change single documents to actually open in Pages, but not all.
    TextEdit gives this error when trying to open .pages documents (for google and stuff):
    The document “---“ could not be opened. The file isn’t in the correct format.
    The file might be corrupted, truncated, or in an unexpected format.

    Nah, I've tried that and every variation.
    Deleting default applications from TextEdit's info.plist (or even the whole info.plist file) didn't work either. Deleting TextEdit did though. Are the default applications also kept somewhere else?

    Hi,
    This issue may be caused by corrupted files or application conflicts. I recommend you to run "sfc /scannow" at the command prompt to check the system files. In addition, you can perform a clean boot to see if any service is causing the issue.
    If the above cannot solve it, maybe you can find if there is any hotfix for the application or uninstall the application.
    Best regards,

  • HP iPrint Photo Conflicts

    Not sure if this is the right forum to post a potential issue with HP's iPrint Photo for Android phones, but...
    It appears that the iPrint application conflicts with my C410's scan function. I get an error message in the scan software that the scanner is being used by another networked device. If I turn off my phone, or even just disable my phone's wifi, then I can scan no problem.
    Is this a known issue... or a newbie?

    Hi, this is the strange issue I have seen. I just want to know after using the HP iPrint app, did you close it completely or left the app running in the background??? Even if you have closed it, check if it is running in the background or not.
    Say "Thanks" by clicking the Kudos Star in the post that helped you.

  • Conflicting app, nokia asha 210

    i am using nokia asha 210 and after i upgrade the mail app, the phone is showing "conflicting application" every time i switched on my phone and every time i tried to open other application such as whatsapp (which is the only one working after the upgrade). plus, all other apps such as youtube, the inbuilt nokia browser, and the "mail" itself is not opening, and also other downloaded apps like uc browser etc. therefore i tried updating the device by going to the settings and after i downloaded all the software, it says it requires 5 mb to install the software but even after i delete everything what i can from my phone, there still isn't enough space left to install the software. and in the following link http://discussions.nokia.com/t5/Asha-and-other-Nokia-Series-30/Conflicting-apps-nokia-browser-nokia-... this guy is suggesting to 1) Remove the existing Nokia Xpress Browser installation. 2) Open the regular web browser or access Nokia Store App and download the Opera Mini Client. 3) Enter http://download.browser.ovi.com on the address bar and enter. but we don't have the option to delete the inbuilt softwares, do we? give me an idea how to do if thats possible. but now i need help on how to stop encountering this conflicting app and what can i do to open other applications.

    Conflicting applications normally indicates a corrupted the file system, especially if more than one app is affected. Because the Nokia Series 40 internal reset/restore feature is not able to re-build its file system: Did you consider to go for the Software Recovery Tool via a Windows computer already?
    panmei wrote:
    We don't have the option to delete the inbuilt softwares, do we?
    Not from within the phone, only via MobiMB. Anyway, that step is wrong. The suggestion is to replace/overwrite the existing Nokia Xpress installation via the manual download. That suggestion was originally made here …

  • Fireworks CS4 & CS5 application frame bug in OSX Lion

    I've had this problem before with Snow Leopard and CS4, never resolved it without the below, and it's bugging me to the point I don't want to pay for an upgrade to CS5 as it's still there in CS5, and I dreamed it might not be!
    I know the following facts:
    It doesn't exhibit on a clean OSX install.
    It doesn't exhibit on a new user account on the same machine.
    It doesn't go wrong for ages, but when it does it's impossible to fix without a clean install of OSX
    Deleting everything realted to Adobe/Fireworks (there must be something I miss - anoyone got  a list?) and re-installing CS4 or CS5 doesn't fix it.
    It's related to screen resolution (2560x1600) as it doesn't exhibit if I change the resolution, but I'm not going to run in anthing less than native on my cinema screen as that's pointless.
    What happens?
    Open or create a new document whilst using the application frame and the whole frame jumps full screen then up and left (out of bounds slightly) and sometimes the frame is over the image. 
    Sometimes it can be recovered by dragging the frame (if it didn't go outside full screen)  It makes using CS4 or CS5 a nightmare.
    I'd like to know where it gets the notion to move the frame/go full screen, and how I can reset this weird and annoying behaviour.
    Having to run Fireworks in a new account is a PITA.
    Help?

    WOW!
    After a couple of hours fruitless application conflict searching I stumbled on a solution.
    I tried the FW without the frame, and didn't like the way the bottom bar sat by the dock, so I turned on dock hiding, the bottom bar then snaps to the bottom of the screen.
    Went back to application frame on and was amazed to find that everything was now working as expected.
    I assumed it was to do with dock hiding, so unhid it, but FW still works fine.  Thought maybe it was to do with the number of icons in the dock (I have over 40) or the dock size, but can't replicate the problem in my other user account, so I can only assume the following:
    During the course of an editing session with multiple windows open and maybe with the FW window pushed under the dock and maybe opening a new file from finder in FW - maybe this is when it gets confused. - that would be a typical work pattern for me.
    So, no matter any more, I have a fix for next time - hide the dock, see if it resolves, if not hide the dock allow it to open in the non frame mode to full edges of the screen, see if that fixes it.
    It explains why a pristine user doesn't have the problem - small dock, it explains why a fresh install is okay for a while - dock not full of applications *I Must Have*  maybe someone somewhere can replicate the bug and fix it.
    *happy face*

  • Parallels Desktop does not run - the application parallels desktop quit

    Keep getting the popup error "The application Parallels Desktop quit unexpectedly" Ignore report or relaunch. I have reinstalled parallels numerous times to no avail. I have reported this issue numerous times to Mac over the last couple months and nothing yet.
    Is the application conflicting with something or does it just not work. I have also went to the parallels website and got the latest version.
    Any help or guidance greatly appreciated.

    I had the same frustrating problem. I found the answer here and it worked perfectly!
    First I ran the uninstaller from my original Parallels Desktop 3.0 for Mac cd and got rid of the application completely.
    Then I went to http://forum.parallels.com/pda/index.php/t-22328.html and looked at the post for 8/13/2008 10:28 PM
    It says:
    Build is to old
    Please download build 5608 following link bellow:
    http://download.parallels.com/v3/en/GA/Parallels-Desktop-5608-Mac-en.dmg
    and reinstall Parallels Desktop as described in kb
    http://kb.parallels.com/en/4790
    As per directions, I repaired the disk permissions.
    Then as per the directions, I downloaded the build 5608 which is a Parallels Desktop 5608 application installer.
    Lastly, you should know that I did NOT follow the directions for the terminal section. I was not comfortable messing around in there. I skipped it, ran the Parallels Desktop 5608 installer and I was up and running very quickly. Even though I skipped the terminal step, it works perfectly. I think it's because the uninstaller had already deleted the files that were referred to in the terminal directions.

  • Files used by another application

    Everytime I try to do anything with my iPod it says files are used by another application. I've tried upgrading it, restoring it, reinstalling iTunes, and all that fun stuff. I'm not sure what the problem is, but it's really annoying. Anyone have any suggestions?

    Hey Misodus,
    Is the iPod blinking Do Not Disconnect?
    What antivirus/Security software is running on the computer?
    Sometime antivirus or security software can scan the iPod drive like any other drive and this would stop iTunes from ejecting the iPod. Reconfigue or disable antivirus, if th issue presists use this article: http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=302538 to stop any application conflicts.

  • Creative Cloud app: SideBySide EventID 80 error in Windows 7

    Since updating to the latest version of the CC Desktop app last week I've noticed in Event Viewer that I'm consistently getting an error each time I use my PC (running Win7 x64). I've never seen this error before and wondered if other Windows users have encountered it (known issue?) and how to go about resolving it. Here's the error log summary:
    Activation context generation failed for "c:\program files (x86)\Adobe\adobe creative cloud\Utils\Creative Cloud Uninstaller.exe".Error in manifest or policy file "" on line . A component version required by the application conflicts with another component version already active. Conflicting components are:. Component 1: C:\Windows\WinSxS\manifests\x86_microsoft.windows.common-controls_6595b64144ccf1df_6.0.76 01.17514_none_41e6975e2bd6f2b2.manifest. Component 2: C:\Windows\WinSxS\manifests\amd64_microsoft.windows.common-controls_6595b64144ccf1df_6.0. 7601.17514_none_fa396087175ac9ac.manifest.
    It appears that when the CC update ran, it installed (reinstalled?) Microsoft Visual C++ 2010  x86 Redistributable - 10.0.40219 and I believe that this has possibly caused the glitch, but I'm not certain. As you can see from the above log, this has something to do with the CC uninstaller: odd, as I'm obviously not trying to uninstall it each time I boot up the PC.
    Does anyone have any advice? Fortunately, this doesn't appear to be causing any problems in launching my applications, and I can open up CC desktop without any issues. I wouldn't even know about this if I didn't keep an eye on Event Viewer.
    M

    Yes, there's no doubt that this error is being caused by the CC app, and like you, it happened after I last updated the app.
    I've tried a number of things to resolve this, including re-installing Microsoft Visual C++ 2010 x86 Redistributable, removing and re-installing the CC app, etc., but I continue to get this error message being logged by Windows more or less daily.
    I decided not to go to the lengths of the solution proposed by Vienna_Sydney because, whilst annoying, the error isn't causing any noticeable problems on my system (some folks who've had SideBySide errors related to other applications (notably Acrobat) have had system crashes so I count myself lucky), but I'm still concerned that I'm getting this error being logged on my otherwise perfectly functioning and well maintained PC, all thanks to an Adobe install. I'd like to think Adobe are on the case, but the CC app seems to be consistently buggy and I'm not holding my breath...

  • Disappearing Contacts, Mobile Me Sync Issues, Calendar crash-Answers??

    I'll try to keep this post brief but hopefully it will help provide some possible answers for frustrated users experiencing the random complete wipe out of all contacts and calendar data when syncing with mobile me using either push or fetch. After several weeks of experiencing these random sync issues and spending several hours over several days between tech support calls with iPhone then Mobile Me support and then finally a genius bar appointment where the genius said he didn't have a clue and simply offered to replace my phone.
    The next morning, SAME PROBLEMS... and through it all NO ONE could tell me why my sync was so randomly unreliable. Every other day for no apparent reason, my phone would suddenly lose all contacts and/or calendar data. (A few thousand contacts and two years of calendar data). It was both frustrating and strange—even stranger that Apple techs had no clue why and seemed to think no one else was having this issue.
    I tried everything - complete restores, resets, deleting and re-adding the mobileme account, etc., etc., etc. One tech support person finally said, "good luck..." The others kept handing me off the higher levels of support... until finally they just said "we don't know why this is happening." I was waiting for someone to just say, "Look, we have issues with mobile me, so hang in there and eventually it will work." I can be patient and I still think the iphone is the greatest invention in recent years. But everybody I talked with at Apple seemed to think this should be working flawlessly.
    I also started having a crash on the calendar anytime I tried to see the list view for "all calendars." This was frustrating because that's the best feature of the calendar app!
    I was prepared to just return to syncing with my computer and wait for the software to improve between the phone and mobile me. Finally, last night I tried a few things that seem to be working... and for the first full day, mobile me is actually useful to me today. (my fingers are crossed!)
    Here's what I did.
    1. I minimized the number of calendars I was syncing - I have no idea if this affected the sync, but I was syncing eight calendars, now I'm down to four. (You can easily export a calendar and import those events back into a different calendar.)
    2. I did a complete restore of the phone (not from a back up) and the VERY FIRST THING, I added mobile me and synced only the calendar (set to push.) This cleared up the random calendar crash in list view and also mobile me was pushing data rather reliably. After a few moments my entire calendar was on the phone and worked perfectly. New events were transferred quickly back and forth.
    3. I then chose to sync my contacts through the computer rather than over the air. I fear that the contact sync was somehow messing up the whole communication process between the phone and the cloud. Someone suggested that the number of "groups" in contacts might have an impact on the sync issues as well. I didn't need my contacts to sync with the urgency of "push" so this works for me. Plus I have a lot of contacts and it's just faster over the cable.
    4. I then GREATLY reduced the number of apps on my phone. I originally had about 27 and I only reinstalled 9 of them. I did this ONE AT A TIME - starting with the most necessary and useful... and after each install, I checked the functionality of the calendar and mobile me. No problems. Perhaps I was having an app conflict?
    5. Then I reinstalled the rest of my content - music, podcasts, photos. Still no problems.
    ONE of these steps actually worked, and I'm not sure which one. My guess is that one or more of my apps was conflicting in some way. OR possibly something with the contact sync... but for the last 24 hours the mobile me calendar sync using push has been consistently reliable and useful. (for the record, mobile me email has always worked perfectly for me.)
    No one with tech support ever suggested to me that I could be having an application conflict or any other problems with calendars or contact groups, etc. I've spent many hours on this the past few weeks... and for the first time, my iphone seems to be working with mobile me correctly.
    In reading many of these posts, it seems a lot of others are having similar problems... so hopefully these suggestions might be helpful. If you have any thoughts as to which of these solutions was the correct one, I would be interested in hearing your opinion.
    Thanks!

    Are your Address Book contacts and iCal calendars/calendar events on your Mac synced with your MobileMe online address book and calendar?
    When you say this data is not synced with your iPhone, none of your MobileMe online data is transferred to your iPhone, or after the initial transfer of this data to your iPhone when you first turned contacts and calendars for over the air syncing with your MobileMe account on your iPhone, the data is not kept synchronized with the MobileMe "cloud"?
