CS5 and Yosemite... major problem detected...

Hello everyone. I'm sorry to bother you with this but I am having real difficulty and I hope someone here can offer me a solution before my brains spill out over the keyboard.
I have installed Yosemite (perhaps more fool me) and now CS5 (Photoshop, Illustrator, InDesign...) will not function. The first time I tried to launch Photoshop I was presented with a warning that I needed to download and install a Legacy Java Runtime 7. I did. Then I tried a relaunch and - lo and behold - was told by Photoshop that there was an unrecoverable error and it was going to quit.
I tried downloading and installing the more up-to-date Java Runtime (8) but I'm still having the same problem.
As a result of my enthusiasm to install the new Apples OSX Yosemite, I seem to have lost the use of all my CS5 applications.
Can anyone PLEASE suggest a solution? I'd be so grateful I'd leap!!!!
Thank you for any help you can give.
Danny

Hey all,
I had upgraded to Yosemite (hoping it would fix my problems with Photoshop in Mavericks). Upgraded, and didn't seem to have any issues. But as I've tried creating new documents, my font library isn't being recognized by the Adobe applications (namely, Photoshop, Illustrator, After Effects, and Premiere Pro). I've tried re-copying fonts into my font library, re-installing them, but to no avail. I'm still without the fonts I'm needing for projects I'm currently working on.
I reset the library to system fonts but have all my others backed up in case I can figure something out. Because of this, apple software seems to recognize all the system fonts just fine. But now, my font list inside of the Adobe CS is incredibly limited, and isn't even displaying the full list of system fonts.
Anyone have any suggestions on how to resolve this?

Photoshop CS5 and Yosemite

Having looked through the questions and answers relating to CS5 Photoshop and Yosemite I tried reinstalling CS5 but it still has not resolved the issue and I cannot open Photoshop. Any ideas out there

Hi Dan,
See if any thing here helps: Photoshop CS5: Not working in Yosemite (Java Runtime)

CS5 and bandaid tool problems

With a .pdf open, I select bandaid tool, then alt click for a sourcepoint, but rather than my cursor letting me repair the image, it turns into a handtool, and my image moves around the screen! I've made sure that I've got the latest drivers for CS5, and since I'm using a Wacom tablet, I downloaded the latest drivers there also. Any ideas?

Assuming by the "bandaid" tool you mean the Healing Brush (opposed to the Spot Healing Brush, which also uses a bandaid in its icon)...
Try this:
1. Click the Window - Clone Source menu.
2. Check the [ ] Clipped box.
3. Try using the Healing Brush again.

Switched over to Mac and having MAJOR problems with Powerbook G4

Hello,
I'n the interest of not having to post many threads and to save bandwidth I will post my problems on one single thread so that you can address each issue.
1) The adapter cord that plugs in to my Powerbook usually has a bright "yellow" light on the endge of the cord when plugged in. Recently the color changed to bright "orange" should I be concerned and is this a sign of something bad to come?
2) When I press the power button "sometimes" the screen goes grey. I press the button, hear the chime, screen goes grey with a world logo that keeps flashing at limbo preventing me from getting in to the computer system. Why is this happening and how do I correct it?
3) Select the Apple Icon on the top and go to Mac OSx software, IE Explorer loads and then FREEZES evertything on the system. It's as though it's crashing from the onset.
4) At any given time while I'm searching through files or surfing the net a ridiculous littl ball appears in the shape of a rainbow that essentially locks my ENTIRE SYSTEM. I cannot click on any Icon or do much of anything. Forced to sit and helplessly look at this stupid object with no directive as to what to do. I can't even shut down my system in safe mode because it won't let me access the Apple Icon on the top menu. At last resort I have to HOLD DOWN THE POWER BUTTON for 10 seconds just to shut it down.
5) How can you retrieve files deleted by accident or do a system restore like you can in Windows? No disks came with my computer so I'm hoping that there is a button to click that can reverse actions and bring back system to an earlier time. I'm sure that Apple must have thought about this as people are going to make many mistakes and will need immediate and non complex recourse in restoring files and the system in general. I changed Admin privilidges to myself and deleted the former Admin of my system, thinking that it would only delete the "name" but instead I suspect that the system deleted 5GB of files that the former Admin installed? Not sure. I have nothing in my trash can and the deleted files under former Admin are in the form of an "image" on my hard disk. I tried to open the deleted file by clicking on the Icon and it's telling me "DISK IMAGE FAILED TO MOUNT no mountable file system. This is very frustrating as I need to see what files have been deleted and restore those that I need. I have OFFICE MAC X suite that now I can't locate and yesterday I downloaded the Opera browser and turned on the Mac this morning only to find that it to is gone.
Now granted Windows is a headache in itself but I never imagined that I would be going through all this madness with a Mac. Everyone spoke so highly of them and I'm finding out different from first hand experience. Hopefully, you can help me resolve the above issues as I'm feeling very frustrated with this computer.

Hi again,
You definitely need to purchase some replacement disks for your computer. Just from hard shutdowns via the powerbutton can do system file damage and you need to Repair Dick using the install disk.
From your reply I would suggest obtaining a good Mac OSX users book such a one of the David Pogue books etc. You can find any number of them online for your OS. The learning of the Mac OS can be somewhat confusing for a switcher from PC and Microsoft OS's. I was somewhat lucky in that when I first started using computers I learned on a Mac so I never had any relearning curve to deal with. I think you will find if you stick with your Mac and OSX that you will learn to love it compared to PC's.
I can assure you that Apple did not drop the ball when it came to the PowerBooks as evident by it being one of the most succesful of all Mac notebook computers.....there are many many happy users still of PowerBooks. There is a specific forum here in Discussions for Powerbook computers that may help you with certain issues.
re: "I went ahead and downloaded my favorite browser Opera for the second time, since it disappeared yesterday after I restarted my machine. Hopefully, I will find it on the Doc the next time I start my system."
Once you download an app to your Mac you will need to place it in your HD/Applications folder. From there you can simply drag it's alias to the Dock or click open the app and then when the icon appears in the Dock click on its icon in the Dock once and hold and from its pop up contextual menu select "Keep In Dock". Applications do not automatically stay in the Dock.
I am not sure I follow your description of the problem of the lost 5GB of files that were on some sort of Disk Image and how you are trying to retrieve them for me to be able to help. If you have deleted the files they are gone on your computer and you will need to use a third party software to recover them (DataRescue is one such utility but these are expensive softwares and can have varying results with file recovery). If you know the name of any of the missing files you can do a search using the finders search field (double click on your HD icon and then use its search field upper right) to make sure that the files are indeed not on your HD anymore.
I also wanted to suggest when using the command +option + escape key combination to force quit a process sometimes may take a couple or a few tries to get it to work sometimes (at least that has been my experience). Did you read through Dr. Smoke's FAQ concerning the SBBOD?
In the end you will need to learn common system maintenance for your OS to function properly such as Repairing Permissions via Disk Utility and running the cron maintenance (daily, weekly and monthly) tasks which can be done manually or by downloading a third party freeware utility such as MacJanitor to help do this easily. One of the biggest reasons to have your install disks is this is how you will need to repair the disk for system corruption among other problems. This can only be done with OS 10.3.9 by using the install disk and booting to its DiskUtility.
I hope these tips help a little more and do post back with further questions,

Itunes and quicktime major problems...

I can't get itunes to work at all and now quicktime's stopped functioning! I get the usual "Sorry for the inconvenience but itunes has encounted a problem and needs to close" every time I try and start it. I've installed quicktime from the main apple download and it installs fine but won't actually work! I've tried uninstalling quicktime but I get the message ' fatal error during installation' and it quits the uninstall. I've uninstalled itunes and after reinstalling it get the same 'sorry for the inconvenience' message again. Need assistance from an itunes expert please. Thanks.

hmmmm. i'm better at the 6.0.x and 5.0.x versions of this. but let's try some things here.
the message that you're getting with the QT uninstall is a variation of the 1603 error message that folks used to get in the 6.0.x and 5.0.x days. so we'll atart working through some of the techniques that used to work with it on a QT uninstall/install in those days.
Download and install the Windows Installer CleanUp utility. then use it to clear any existing QuickTime installation configuration information from your PC:
Description of the Windows Installer CleanUp Utility
next, clear leftover QuickTime program files and folders from the PC.
1. On the Start menu, click My Computer (or double-click My Computer on the Desktop).
2. In My Computer, open Local Disk.
3. Open Program Files.
4. Right-click on the QuickTime folder and click Delete from the shortcut menu.
5. Navigate to C:\Windows\system32\.
6. Remove the files QuickTime.qts and QuicktimeVR.qtx.
restart your PC, and try installing iTunes again.
does the install go through properly this time?

Does running Photoshop CS5 and CS6 cause problems with plugins?

I have Phootshop CS5 (32 bit) and have also installed CS6 (64 bit) on the same PC. After installing CS6, and reinstalling the plugins, many plugins do not run on CS but continue to work on CS5? In some cases (Topaz for example), some filters load and others do not. Any ideas?

Thanks
Worked!

CS5 and aspect ratio problem

I am running Master Collection CS5. I have AVCHD clips from from two cameras. One camera is .mod and the other is 720p H.264 (MOV). The .mov show up 16x9 but the .mod show up as 720x480 (4.3). Window Media Player plays them in the correct wide screen format but the properties in Premiere are 720x480. I guess the answer is that adobe doesnt support .mod files but maybe I am missing something.

What you're missing for sure is the fact that this forum is for suite related questions. My assumption is that you need help with Premiere Pro. Please post in that forum.

Iphone keeps freezing sent it to apple and advised no problem detected problem continues

I sent my apple phone back to apple as it was keep on freezing they have sent it back advising they haave updated the software but the problem still continues i have been checking on forum but this seems like a common problem with the iphone 4 & iphone 4s and some ppl have also reported this problem with the 5 can any one help or suggest how this problem can be resolved

I'm assuming that when you sent it in, Apple did a full restore on your device. But just to double check, when you received your phone back, did it still have all your content on it or not?

URGENT - JUST UPLOADED BETA AND HAVE MAJOR PROBLEM

I just uploaded the new beta version of Firefox that arrived today and stupidly replaced the old version with the beta in my applications folder. When I tried to open the new version I received an error message that the new version is not supported by my computer's architecture. I should have known better, as my computer is still operating with Mac OS 10.4.11, as it is a G5 Power PC G5. I have no idea which version of Firefox I was previously using and how to find it again on the Firefox website. Can anyone help -- please???
Thanks very much!

Firefox 4 versions and later '''do not run on a PowerPC Mac'''(like yours) and require at least OS X 10.5 '''and an Intel Mac'''.
see: [http://www.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/11.0/system-requirements/ Firefox 11.0 System Requirements]
The latest supported version for your ppc mac is '''3.6.28''' you can download from here:
http://www.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/all-older.html
[http://www.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/3.6.28/system-requirements/
Firefox 3.6.28 System Requirements]
1. Download a new copy of the Firefox program(3.6.28) from the above link
2. Trash the current Firefox application to do a clean (re-)install.
3. Install the new version that you have downloaded(3.6.28).

Power Mac G5 Quad: crashed and now seizing up and other major problems

My Power Mac (G5 Quad) crashed twice today (screen froze and stopped responding to mouse and keyboard), both when rendering in an application called Artlantis, although that could be a coincidence. Another possible culprit is that I used Migration Assistant to move a user account, applications and root level files from an Intel machine, onto this machine recently.
After the second crash startup was slow and problematic. Mouse wouldn't respond although I was able to type in username and password to login. I was able to manipulate things with keyboard but not mouse. Everything seemed to seize up and then it would follow some of the commands I'd made via the keyboard and then seize up again. I do remember one other instance of having a similar crash and symptoms about a week ago, before I migrated the Intel-based account, so maybe that's not the problem.
I managed, with some difficulty, to start up with the Install disk (10.4.2) and do a disk verification, which brought up two instances of "Illegal name" (just after the word Catalog). I then did a disk repair which it said was successful. Restarted machine but same problems.
I've tried to backup some data that's not currently backed up, by booting into target mode but the machine tends to seize up after a while. All types of booting seems to be getting gradually more difficult. Leaving the machine off for while helps with booting.
Booted into super user and did fsck, which it said was okay. Booted into Hardware Test and did an extended test which said it passed. The Hardware Test and the super user mode seemed to be the only modes that could run without the machine seizing up.
To get the data that's not backed up off the machine I wondered about taking the hard drive out and putting it into another of our Quad G5s... good idea or bad?
As for finding out what's wrong, any advice?

Just some more observations. Hoping for new external hard drive to turn up today. In the time being I've been using the machine out of urgency.
The crashes seem to happen after an hour or two of using the machine. Most of the time there is no need for a hard shut down. The interface seizes up but after a minute or so I'm able to use the keyboard, including navigating between applications (command-tab) and shutdown (ctrl-eject -> tab to shutdown). Also, network or application processing activity continues, though what appears to be in a stuttering start-go manner. Activity on the keyboard seems to help this activity along, or at least helps you see any progress. If there's no activity on the keyboard the graphic interface catches up every moment or so on its own (just less often than if you're taping on the keyboard).

Photoshop cc and cs6 Major problem

Hey guys i really need help with this. My adobe photoshop closes after splash screan. heres a video of it ( http://gyazo.com/6bbc0b4dac9594cfe146ab4080f6f75e )
my system requirementrs meet the expectation of it. i have tried so many things please help. thanks

Look in your Window Application Event Log. There should be errors logged there that may identify the faulting module.
Your basic remedies to try may include removal of 3rd party plug-ins and reinstallation of Photoshop.

Or just log into iTunes and your library would appear. Appearantly not because I lost over 3k songs can someone help me with this if possible.

Reinstall from your most recent backup...

I have an Epson printer on a Wifi network. Windows 7 desktop and and HP Win 7 laptop (my wifes) print to it just fine. My MacBook Pro running Yosemite won't detect it, and I have the latest driver installed. No problem when I had a Canon...

I have an Epson printer on a Wifi network. Windows 7 desktop is running the network, and my wife's HP Win 7 laptop prints to it just fine. My MacBook Pro running Yosemite won't detect it, and I do have the latest driver installed. I didn't have a problem when I had a Canon Pixma on the network, but when I replaced it with the Epson nothing seems to work. I go to add a printer to the queue and only the FAX function of the printer shows up - not the WS-4530 print function. Does anyone out there have any suggestions? Please??? :-)

Hi Kelly,
As someone who has to print from my Mac to a networked printer at home all the time, I can certainly understand how frustrating it must be to have that fail to perform as expected. Let's see if we can get you up and running.
I would suggest that you troubleshoot using the steps in this article -
OS X Yosemite: Printing troubleshooting
Start with the section titled Check the network.
Thanks for using Apple Support Communities.
Sincerely,

Conflict of cs5 with yosemite. Will not open. "An unexpected and unrecoverable problem has occured. Photoshop will now exit."

I have reinstalled CS5 and updated java. Same message every time. Running 10.10.1

No, you still have not supplied enough information for others to help you..
I still have no idea about your system specs (see boilerplate text in 1st reply), etc., all of which could cause Photoshop to fail, nor how you installed Photoshop.
brooksbarrett wrote:
…If you don't want to deal with my problem, then how about suggesting how I can contact Photoshop for support?
No, as a matter of fact, by now I have no desire to deal with you or your problem at all. (See, this is the unhelpful response evoked by an aggressive, demanding, accusatory sounding post that the FAQ I quoted above warns you about in my previous post.)
However, I can tell you that CS5 is not supported by Adobe at all, as it is an obsolete version they no longer sell, so no matter whom you contact at Adobe, they will not give you any support. At best, they will direct you back here to these forums.
Good luck.

Premiere Pro CS5.5 Mac - Major Metadata Problems

Hi...
I am having major problems with the Metadata system in Premiere Pro CS5.5
I have created a custom scheme and added the following property "Key" and set it to have a boolean value (Check Mark)
My Metadata display correctly displays the "Key" property and I can check it. Just like expected.
I will now apply it to the clip(s) in need of that meta property.
In the project column the property is also show correctly...
All good so far but now comes the two major problems
PROBLEM 1
1) I have about 300 clips in the project panel
2) If I click the column header I can sort accordingly
3) Clicking name or Labels will immediately sort correctly. 1 Second tops.
4) If I click the column header of my custom propert "Key" I get the SWOD and it takes about 120 seconds for Premiere to sort adhering to the Key Column.
2 minutes for that is a VERY long time compared to sorting by name...
Could this be a bug or am I doing something wrong...
PROBLEM 2
In the project panel's search field I will enter "Key" but nothing will appear... At least that is what I thought.
It took more than ONE HOUR for Premiere's search results to be able to identify that a clip had gotten that property checked. (Clicking the Clip immediately reflects that it has been checked)
I even timed it. Ckecked the Key property for 4 new clips which did not have the meta applied to them.
In the search field I entered 'Key" but only the clip which had had the Key meta tagged since 1 hour would appear.
I waited another hour and now those very 4 clips also appear in the search field. The same goes for the "Good" meta boolean which is NOT a custom field.
I saved the project in between quit Premiere and re-launched but THAT did NOT help PPRO find that Property in the search field.
As I said, it takes about 1 hour for Premiere to be able to included those metadata in the search results.
Funny thing is, if I enter 'true' which is the boolean text-string for a checked property the results appear immediately. But there is NOT much use in having ALL boolean fields appear that are checked.
I welcome that adobe implemented metadata across their apps but ELEGANT is something entirely different.
Could anyone shed some light on this ?
Thanks
