CS 4 architecture not supported message on intel mac

I am trying to install CS 4 on an intel mac. It was installed on a power pc, but was successfully uninstalled and reinstalled on the intel. It installs fine, but when I try to open InDesign, it says it's not supported on this architecture. Were some of the earlier versions of CS 4 made only for Power PC? If not, what's wrong with the intel that it won't allow me to use the program?

We can't know. you have not told us anything about what Mac you actually use, what version of OSX and so on. Apple have removed many legacy components from recent versions of OSX that may impair functionality or at least require installing additional stuff...

  • CS4 install problem "you cannot run...architecture not supported" error

    Just received my copy of CS4 (Mac) from amazon.com. Installed it. But could not get it to run. Got a "You cannot run....architecture not supported" error message. Can't understand why? This is my first version of Photoshop CS. Didn't install CS3...etc. Nor did I previously install the "master" edition. And I am running a MBP 2.5GHz laptop. So it has to be software related. A corrupt file perhaps?
    I also cannot install Adobe AIR. Suddenly 3 windows pop up. Telling me I can't install AIR.
    Not happy. Expensive software not running. Not good. :P What gives???
    Please help me soon!

    Where were you yesterday Buko?? :) Where would one find the "CS4 Cleanscript" any how? Would have been nice if you provided a link. Heh...
    Any how. Last night. I did d/l the trial version of CS4 Extended. Installed it. Then read the READ.ME file. Stresses that you MUST use their uninstall program. That you can't simply drag the folder to the TRASH (or use AppDelete or AppZapper...as you would be doing the same thing pretty much). So, I used Adobe's CS4 uninstaller. Did a very thorough job of removing the right files.
    I managed to sucessfully install my copy of CS4. I even got the proper SETUP dialogue box this time (6 tabs). Previously only 3 tabs were visible. This one asks you to input your serial # and even register before you finish.
    Now I see the blue PS folder icon. Have copied a few PS program icons to my dock. Working now as it should.
    Moral of the story? Read the READ.ME file!! And use proprietary uninstall programs for huge complicated programs like PS CS4. :) Later guys.

  • Can't Open Any Apps: "architecture not supported"

    I'm using Snow Leopard on my Intel MBP, but keep handy a clone from a couple years ago on an external hard drive....in case I need to boot from another drive for diagnosis/repair.
    The clone on the external is from OS 10.5.7. And whenever I try to launch any apps (including native Mac ones like Safari....which are the versions that were on disk when I cloned) on that drive, I get "can't open; architecture not supported".
    I've tried adjusting an app's permissions to let me read/write/own,  renaming, and copying the apps.....but they won't open.
    Any ideas?
    I'll note that I'm trying to launch apps that were cloned at the time I was running OS 10.5.7. I'm not trying to launch apps from my internal drive.

    Unless you cloned a working Snow Leopard installation, which unless I'm misunderstanding you did not - you said you cloned 10.5 - then again you probably do not have the Rosetta environment installed. It won't matter that you have 10.5 on the external disk and that the applications are on that drive unless you boot from that drive. Nor will it matter that you cloned a 10.5 drive to your internal when you then upgrade to 10.6; the Rosetta environment does not carry over from 10.5 automatically when you upgrade to 10.6.
    Again, try installing Rosetta per the instructions to which I linked.

  • Ipad2 gives me ""accessory is not supported" message w/ VGA adapter that I used lots of times before. Now it's not working. Why? and how do I get it back to normal functioning?

    Ipad2 gives me ""accessory is not supported" message w/ VGA adapter that I used lots of times before. Now it's not working. Why? and how do I get it back to normal functioning?
    I used the (Apple branded) VGA adapter lots of times last year. Now I got back to one place I used it many times and it does not work. When I restart iPad with the adapter connected, I get the "accessory is not supported"message. But that same accessory WAS supported before.
    This is very annoying as I planned a whole bunch of presentations starting this week to do with my iPad2 and that adapter.

    I received the same error message, "Accessory Not Supported"  from both the VGA and DV video adapters I purchased, both were boxed direct from Apple. However, to bypass this problem I  simply clicked on Photos icon on iPad2 and flipped through photos until it displayed on my projector.  I then exited the Photos app and my home screen displayed fine on the projection screen.
    Some logic issue with the video adapters, but launching Apple Photo app initializes the video adapters then they work fine for mirroring after that.
    Platform: iPad2
    IOS: 5.1.1
    Best regards!

  • CD albums in iTunes (12.1.2.27) won't load to iPad - gets file type not supported message

    I just updated to iTunes 12.1.2.27 and synced to my iPad, but all of my CD albums that are in iTunes on a mac-mini (Yosemite 10.10.3)  won't sync now. A sample message is:
    "song title" was not copied because the file type is not supported by the iPad "my iPad name"
    There where a hundred songs on the list. My iPad is on IOS 8.3. I have never had this problem before. Songs purchased from iTunes store are there, but not my own CDs.
    Has anyone seen this problem before? What is the solution?
    Rolf

    Problem solved! Apparently way back in November of last year I made a copy of the iTunes library on my time machine backup disk manually. I just created the folder on the drive. This was because I was updating the system and did not trust anything to work properly afterwards. The iTunes folder was sitting on that drive and  iTunes (for reasons I don't understand) started using parts of it. I noticed this when I tried to play one of the songs from my CD albums. The backup disk would mount and spin up and play the song from there.
    By the way the iTunes preferences were set to look at the iTunes library on my mac-mini system disk not the backup drive. Why it went to that backup drive I will never know. Anyway I renamed the iTunes folder to something else on the backup drive. Now when I play a song from an album it goes to the proper iTunes library (the one on my mac-mini disk). Subsequent to this fix a sync to the iPad copied my albums  properly with no error.

  • "Browser is not supported" message accessing a URL to an Image

    Hi.
    I have a dynamically generated URL, which points to an image (GIF) created based on a BusinessGraphics chart.
    When I access this URL with Internet Explorer (6.0.2900), no problem at all. The image loads and is displayed on IE. But, when I set this URL to be called from other sources (like an Adobe Interactive Form image field, or creating a inputstream based on this URL), the below message is displayed:
    Sorry, your browser is not supported by Web Dynpro!
    Is there a way to solve it? I need to display the image associated to this URL in Adobe Interactive Form.

  • I'm getting an 'error image is not supported' message when importing from my iPhone to iPhoto

    Hello helpers-
    I recently upgraded my Macbook Pro 5,5 hard drive (1TB) to a 1.5TB hard drive. I used migration assistant to transfer everything over. So far everything works great with one exception. My iPhoto library will not upload images from my iPhoto 5 anymore. Same goes with my iPad 2. I get a message saying 'error image file is not supported'.
    Is there something I can do to fix this?
    Also my iCloud sign in just keeps getting the thinking icon when trying to sign in. It will do it for hours. I've tried rebooting, shuting everything down, I updated everything I could and yet I'm still getting issues. Thanks for your assistance!... and happy New Year!
    -Ryan

    That was a test to determine if the problem was limited to your original library or was system wide.  Since the new library worked OK the culprit is your orginal library. 
    Therefor Apply the two fixes below in order as needed:
    Fix #1
    1 - launch iPhoto with the Command+Option keys held down and rebuild the library.
    2 - run Option #4 to rebuild the database.
    Fix #2
    Using iPhoto Library Manager  to Rebuild Your iPhoto Library
    1 - download iPhoto Library Manager and launch.
    2 - click on the Add Library button and select the library you want to add in the selection window..
    3 - Now that the library is listed in the left hand pane of iPLM, click on your library and go to the Library ➙ Rebuild Library menu option.
    4 - In the next  window name the new library and select the location you want it to be placed.
    5 - Click on the Create button.
    Note: This creates a new library based on the LIbraryData.xml file in the library and will recover Events, Albums, keywords, titles and comments but not books, calendars or slideshows. The original library will be left untouched for further attempts at fixing the problem or in case the rebuilt library is not satisfactory.

  • Mode Not Supported message on Sony BDPS3100 Bluray Player

    Hi,
    I bought a Sony - Smart Wi-Fi Built-In Blu-ray Player Model: BDPS3100 last weekend. When I play any DVDs on this player, I get a message saying 'Mode Not Supported. Please change the resolution of the external device'. I have connected this to a Samsung 1080p LED TV through HDMI cable. I get Netflix and other apps displayed properly on the TV and it works great with Wi-Fi connectivity. The only issue is that it is not playing any DVDs. I tried playing the same DVD on my laptop and it worked. So no issues with the DVD. I tried connecting the HDMI to both HDMI1 and HDMI2 ports on the TV but still no luck. I also tried chaning the Output settings in the player to reduce the resolution to 780p and 480p as well, still no luck in playing the DVD. I have not tried a Bluray disk yet. Any pointers on how to get this fixed? Oh yeah, I've tried switching off the player and turning it on but with no luck. Read somewhere that holding the STOP button for 10 secs will make the player reset the settings and play the disk but that too didn't work. So am lost at this point on how to play DVDs on this player. Any help would be appreciated.
    Thanks

    Do you have a laptop that has an HDMI in? Probably not, but just checking.
    It may be a bad laser. Try a blu ray and see if that works

  • Vga "mode not supported" message

    I Own A power mac g4 and i havent booted it in about 4 years. I hooked it up via vga to my aoc envision hdtv L19W861. When ever I boot the system i can see the apple logo when it is loading. Then after the logo dissappears and the mac boots the message "mode not supported" pops up. Please help. I am planing to use the computer soon.

    Hello,
    Sounds like a wrong resolution set, try booting up in Safe Mode, holding Shift key at bootup, then set a good resolution in System Preferences>Displays.

  • Bought a Goalzero solar charger - Switch 8 pack - but get an 'not supported' message and charging stops?

    Anybody help - going on a charity trek next week and my solar charging kit (Goalzero Nomad 3.5 with Guide 10 and Switch 8) is giving a 'not supported' error message and stops charging?

    The 65W and 90W will definitely not work with the W510.
    The link you sent has no mention of a W510 in the hardware compatibility list.
    You need to order another charger i.e. 135W.
    Copy and paste from the 65W URL you sent.

  • "File Not Supported" Message when importing AVCHD footage into Premiere on Mac

    Hi,
    What I am using:
    Camera: Sony FS100
    Media Codec: AVCHD
    Computer: iMac running OSX 10.8.2
    Premiere CS6
    I have a quirky issue I have been trying to figure out.  I just bought a Sony FS100 camera which records footage in the AVCHD format.  When I import the "private" folder the camera creates into Premiere, it brings the footage in but always give me this error message: "File format not supported" along with a list of every clip on the card.  The thing is, despite the warning, Premiere brings in each clip fine into browser window.  I can preview the clips, edit them and export them out of the timeline with no problems that I have seen.  Additionally, if I go back to the "File" dropdown and select "Import Recent File", I can select any of the the files individually again and NOT get the error message when I bring in the clips.  I have imported from the Private folder amd the AVCHD quicktime inside the Private folder and, when I do, I get the above mentioned error.  But if I import any of the .mts folders that Premiere can see inside the AVCHD folder (each .mts folder seems to represent each indvidual clip), they come in perfect without the error message.  Additionally, if I locate the folder through the media browser, it brings the clips in without the error message.  I can then drag these clips into the Project window like I have been trying to do eith the "import" function.  So should I not be using the "Import" function with these files?  I want to because that is what I did with FCP?  Any help would be much appreciated!

    The PRIVATE folder contains far more than just the media.  Those additional files are what's generated the message.
    The proper method here is to use the Media Browser for importing.
