Crashed, opens to spinny wheel which does not go away, even when restarted

This happened on my macbookPro... and as I am in the process of erasing everything and doing a clean re-install it started happening on my desktop. Anyone know what caused this? or how to fix it without erasing my computer?

millerphotography, did you ever get your problem resolved? I'm having the same problem. The app crashed and now I get a spinning wheel when trying to launch.
Thanks

  • I told my wireless network to forget two airport expresses so that I could rename them.  Now the network does not see them even when plugged in about 10 feet away from the airport extreme base station.  Does "forget" mean forever?  How to reset?

    I told my wireless network to forget two airport expresses 1 1st gen, 1 2nd gen so that I could rename them.  Now the network does not see them even when plugged in about 10 feet away from the airport extreme base station.  The network does recognize a totally new 2nd gen express.  Does "forget" mean forever?  How to reset?

    The network does recognize a totally new 2nd gen express.
    Then, it sounds like you have already reset the 2nd Gen Express, and now you need to set it up again, like you did the first time. Only, this time, assign the device name that you want to the AirPort Express.
    Do NOT use the name that Apple suggests.....which will be something goofy like........Sueswimsf's Red Apple AirPort Express
    Assign a simple name.....something like     2ndGenExpress

  • Have Yahoo Mail Plus, which does not allow ads. When on my work computer and log into my Yahoo account, ads do appear?? This does not happen on Explorer. Help

    Have a Yahoo Mail Plus account, which does not allow for ads. It works fine on Explorer, but when used on Firefox the same ads always appear both at the top and left margins "Dr. Oz New Weight Loss Secret". Yahoo says it is a Firefox issue. Please help.

    another thing you can try is to [[Reset Firefox – easily fix most problems|reset firefox]].
    in case there are still adverts shown in places where they aren't supposed to be afterwards, it sounds like an issue with malware on the system. please run a full scan of your pc with the security software already in place and different tools like the [http://www.malwarebytes.org/products/malwarebytes_free free version of malwarebytes], [http://www.microsoft.com/security/scanner/default.aspx microsoft safety scanner] or [http://www.kaspersky.com/security-scan kaspersky security scan].

  • InDesign asterisk does not go away even after saving

    I have a file in CS4 InDesign that I have made a number of changes to, and when I saved it, then opened it again, it had the asterisk next to the title, indicating that it needs to be saved, but all I did was OPEN it. I have a Mac using Snow Leopard (purchased in 2010) and I am currently using CS4 InDesign. Other than that, InDesign works fine. I have tried doing a SAVE AS, I have tried exporting the document as an IDML file, then opening in InDesign and saving, only to see the asterisk again. Sometimes, on other docs, exporting as an IDML works. I read it gets rid of the accumulated "junk" from multiple saves. Any ideas? Like I said, just 1 or 2 files. By the way, these files were done in CS4--not an earlier version of CS, as I know that would say CONVERTED next to the name, which this does not.

    That is more for an InDesign program problem that effects the functionality of the program for most or all documents. This is only for a couple of well-used docs. I have my prefs set and I don't want to recreate them. Besides, that hasn't worked in the past. I'm attributing the asterisk issue with too much junk in the doc along with a lot of saving. It will be easier to recreate the file and start fresh. I have found that any other strange behavior (rare) is solved by simply exporting the file as an IDML or INX. Thanks for your suggestions.

  • Mac Pro FireWire does not switch off even when Mac Pro is switched off

    Hi,
    got my new Mac Pro with 2 x 2.8 GHz Quad-Core Intel Xeon last week!
    Found out today, that the firewire connection both on the frontside as well on the backside
    keeps beeing powered even if the Mac Pro is switched off!
    Is this a new features as my old Mac Pro (2x2.0 GHz Dual-Core Intel Xeon) did not have this feature?
    If yes, why is this so? For what is it good for?
    Thanks for your comments? If you have the same new Mac Pro maybe you can check out and let me know if this feature is also on your Mac Pro seen.
    Thommy

    Hi,
    called to the apple hotline and got informed that the so called "residual current" is normal at the MAC Pro. Sometimes the USB Ports sometimes the FireWire Ports keep been powered continously even the machine is switched off.
    Apple told me further that I can use a connection plug board with a central switch to solve my issue.
    I will close now the subject! Thanks veryone for all your help here!

  • Ipad Does NOT turn ON even when pressing power/home buttons, plugging through the charger and usb through itunes

    Hi, my iPad suddenly froze while downloading a free kid's game, the loudness/soft symbol just kept on appearing no button works even the slide off/cancel. Then it suddenly turned off. I searched for troubleshooting guide, I tried pressing power/home buttons as instructed, charged/uncharged, and connected through usb using itunes but to no avail. What have gone wrong? I bought this in Vietnam but am here in the Philippines and still under warranty. Could I bring this unit to a service center of apple here in the Philippines?

    Did you hold the home/power buttons for ten to fifteen seconds until the apple appears?
    If still bad, try a restore from within iTunes.
    If still bad, take it to an apple vendor for them to test/reinitialize for you.

  • After upgrading to OS 10.6.8, I cannot open Mail. I tried SecUpd2012-004.dmg which does not help.

    I tried SecUpd2012-004.dmg which does not help.  If anyone has a solution, much appreciated.

    Mac OS X v10.6: Mail.app won’t open, or "You can't use this version of Mail…" alert after installing Security Update 2012-004:
    http://support.apple.com/kb/TS4424?viewlocale=en_US&locale=en_US
    Fellow user Grant Bennet-Alder offers this solution:
    Some users have reported this problem if the Mail Application has been moved out of the top-level /Applications folder, or duplicated in another location.
    When the Security Update is done, the old version of Mail is disabled.
    The solution has been to:
    1) make certain Mail is in the /Applications folder
    2) There is no other copy anywhere else.
    3) Once steps 1 and 2 have been done, Manually download and re-apply the Security Update (2012-004) by hand.
    Security Update 2012-004 (Snow Leopard)
    If the Mail.app has been LOST, it can be re-installed by applying the 10.6.8 version 1.1 combo update. But this update is quite large and it is usually not necessary:

  • I connect my iPad to my PC and open iTunes, but the iPad does not show up in sidebar.  I want to sync. How do I do it?

    I have my PC on, then plug in my iPad (which is on) and open iTunes.  The iPad does not show up in the sidebar.  How do you get it to show up so that I can select the iPad and then configure the sync settings in each of the settings panes....hoping that these actually show up.
    In the manual it says "log in to your computer user account before connecting iPad".  I am the only user of this PC...does this mean some other user account.  I am confused.  I need "baby steps" to tell me how to do all this....very senior and just learning about this wonderful machine. I will very much appreciate your help.

    If you are the only user on your computer you probably don't have multiple user accounts set up and can disregard that.  If you are using iTunes 11 go to View>Show Sidebar.  Now see if your iPad appears under Devices on the left side when you connect it.  If it does, click on the name of your iPad on the left side and your iTunes sync settings options will appear in folders with tabbed headings to the right.
    If it doesn't appear on the left side, follow the troubleshooting steps shown in this article: http://support.apple.com/kb/TS1538.

    Hi Nealeh
    Thanks i think I got it working of a fashion.
    Except the replace colour, does not seem to end up with the colour I picked using the picker tool. Its as though it hads not replaced the colour but blended in the desired colour with the old incorrect colour!
    Buy trial and error picking not the right colour but close - which when mixed with the existing colour is close.
    Sorry I can't post the pictures as the Lingerie Mfg, has me under non disclosure.
    The scenario is:-  say a blonded mainly tanned model a high cut [at the hips] corsette style basque, with an ultra low bra line.
    Our dear model, has just come back from St Barts with a fabulous Tan, and equally striking bold Tan lines!.
    So we have great tanned legs, then the 'porcelain white band' where her swimsuit was.
    Likewise we have a tanned face, and arms, shoulders etc and a great tan on the top of the cleavage, then it stops, white band to the top of the ultralow cut bra line of the basque.
    She must have lived in like the most conservative bikini on the planet [50's style], for 2 weeks!
    Had she had a normal skimpy bikini on, no problem!
    If i don't solve it, she will get fired!
    Not a lack of interest in your post, but I was out, and tried to log in to this site; which I could do, on my iPad Air / 5 [whatever its the new one]. And tried to 'sign in' - but it just hung at the
    "Join Adobe Community" adobe sign in splash screen! with he little whell spinning around continuously!!!
    I have Safari on this iPad. Guess that is all it runs.
    So technology is not my friend today!

  • Ibooks author, how do I get the standard book pages background into my document. I have published one book so far which does not display with a book pages background or options for font size.

    ibooks author, how do I get the standard book pages background into my document. I have published one book so far which does not display with a book pages background or options for font size.

    No on the book title, no problem there.
    The issue is: my book pages appear as on white paper, no background that resembles a open book and also no option to change fonts. The book was created in iBooks author, there was a problem going with the "Publish" menu route so I was instructed my Apple to "export" the file and submit that. I think that's the problem after reading that iBooks author is a hybrid epub file.
    Thanks for getting back to me.

  • Error 22: Window does not have a constructor. when opening photomerge . panorama ??????

    Try resetting the PSE preferences by
       1. Close Elements.
       2. Launch the Photoshop Elements Welcome Screen and hold down ctrl + alt + shift as you click Editor.
       3. Continue to hold the keys until you see a message box asking if you want to delete Photoshop Elements settings file; click Yes. Elements will open with default preferences.
    One of the similar threads is found here http://forums.adobe.com/thread/622755 which is for Photoshop but should work for PSE as well.
