CS5 Photoshop stopped working when I upgraded to Yosemite how do I proceed from here?
CS5 photoshop will not open in Yosemite, Illustrater and indesign are still working together with acrobat... is there a way forward, or is the situation a total loss?
Reinstall the programs.

I installed the new Yosemite operating system even though I was afraid something bad would happen. Well. it did. I can no longer scan photos using my photo scanner. I have updated all the drivers and it is still not working. I have an Epson Perfection V500 photo scanner, as well as an Epson WorkForce 845 all-in-one scanner, printer, copier. The 845 is on the network. The V500 is connected to my computer. For some reason, I keep getting the error that my V500 is not connected and when I try to add it, my mac does not find it. I know it is there. It was working before I upgraded. Help
You may have already done so, but if not...
Try a different USB cable.
Reboot your computer
Launch Disk Utility (in the Utilities folder) and Repair Disk Permission
in the left pane, click once on the name of your hard disk
in the right pane, click on the First Aid tab near the top
under the blank window, click the button "Repair Disk Permissions."
Afterward, click the "verify disk" button and it will check your hard disk.
Now, try your scanner... -

Photoshop stops working when i do anything 3d on it. Please help.
Photoshop stops working when I try to open a project that I have already started with 3d in it, also does the same thing when I start something new and try putting 3d in it, it stops working. I just bought a new computer only 2 days old.

Internet Explorer stopped working when I upgraded to Parallels 6
I am fairly capable with computers and software, so your direction to a helpful resource would be appreciated if you don't know specifically how to address my problem.
I am new to Apple as of this past April and I am still adjusting from the PC world. However, many of my programs still need Windows and one on-line subscription requires Internet Explorer. I installed Parallels and Windows 7 on my MacBookPro.
Internet Explorer 8 stopped working when I upgraded Parallels from Version 5 to Version 6. It gave me an error message and did not open. IE8 had worked just fine on Parallels 5. My inquiries to Parallels went unanswered. Nor could find a solution on the Parallels website or the internet, in general. I downloaded and tried to install IE9 Beta from the Microsoft website when I saw it offered when I tried to find a solution to my IE8 problem on-line (Safari still works). Now I receive an error message "Internet Explorer did not finish installing". But, I am unable to finish its installation or remove it so I can start over.
Any ideas??I think your problem is specific to Windows. You would have better luck in Windows-specific sites such as this one: http://support.microsoft.com/gp/pcieintro

How do I find out if my 'non apple' paid apps will stop working when I upgrade to iOS 5?
I have downloaded apps from both apple and other developers.
I have paid for some of these apps.
Since there are numerous apps that I use, is there a generic way to know for sure on whether the apps will still work when I upgrade to iOS5?Unless the problem was caused by abuse or other accidental damage, Apple will exchange your in-warranty iPod with a refurbished one at no cost. Make an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store for the exchange.

Crtl e or edit in - CS5 Photoshop - stopped working
Working on an image in Lightroom 4, pressing ctrl e (or edit in-CS5 Photoshop) opens that image in Photoshop - only it doesn't?!
Am not aware of having changed anything between it working fine and not.
Rebooting (Win Vista) and restarting LR made no difference.I'm seeing a similar issue just on the mac version - two machines now Was one up to a few weeks back - now the second has done the same.
I asked in a different forum - and they got me to test something - could mini-bridge open images?
On my system it can't open them either - same thing - photoshop apparently does nothing. Bridge itself (the full app) works fine.
The suggestion is that mini-bridge and LR both use something called BridgeTalk - which appears to be failing since both apps can't open.
However - that's as far as we've got - no suggestions yet on how to fix bridgetalk
Just curious if you have the same issue (in other words - a bridgetalk issue or a straight LR issue). But if so - I'm sorry that I can't give any more info on what next - I'm stuck at the same point. -
Since i have the 10.6 / 10.7 / 11 iTune's version when i try to see my movies, from my library, or movie trailers from iTunes Store, the program stops working... I don't have idea about this problem, what happened?
Thank youLet's try the following user tip with that one:

Photoshop stopped working when I tried to download CC which would not load either!!!
I AM VERY FRUSTRATED. First...My CS5 would not read RAW on my new Canon T3i camera so I tried to find a fix. Then...that did not work s I decided to upgrade to the CC! Well after trying to get it to load I am told the I need to close the "Bridge.exe" in Photoshop CS5. I can't find it. After a huge lot of frustration I decided that I would delete and reload all of the Photoshop programs!!! Well that made it even worse...NOTHING WORKS! THIS IS MY TRAVEL COMPUTER AND I NEED TO BE ABLE TO WORK ON MY IMAGES.
I NEED T TALK TO SOMEONE WHO CAN WORK WITH ME. So Far I have spent a lot of time trying to get the help I need as your site is not user friendly and I don't like "Blogs" with information from someone who can't help with my problem directly. Also I upgraded to Element 11 and can't get that to work either. So far I have spent a lot of money and I am not happy.

Intel Rapid Start stops working when RAM upgraded
I have a brand new ENVY dv7-7212nr notebook running Windows 8 64-bit.
This machine has Intel Rapid Storage Technology which caches hard disk data (I think on the 32GB SSD) and Intel Rapid Start Technology which stores active memory in the SSD cache (I think) when the computer enters a hibernation state.
The first thing I did was upgrade the RAM from 8GB to 16GB. It works fine, but then I get an error message "your system does not appear to have intel rapid start technology enabled."
HP provides very little information on this, basically none. I assume the memory is being cached on the SSD, but I don't know how to verify this. Also I notice that acceleration is not enabled under the Rapid Storage Tecnology applet for either drive.
I called tech support twice but the techs knew nothing about upgrading RAM beyond the usual and couldn't get it to work either.
Does anybody even know exactly how the SSD is being used in my system? That would be valuable information to me.
Thanks in advance!
This question was solved.
View Solution.Thanks for reading my reply.
The "little SSD" is still a drive and not a chip, although you are right that it is little and it is attached to the motherboard. It is little because its form factor is not the typical 2.5 inch size but what's call "mSATA". In fact, the service manual for this dv7-7212nr laptop shows you how you can remove and replace or upgrade this mSATA SSD:
Below is a comparison of how small the mSATA form factor is to other drive sizes (from Left to Right: mSATA, 1.8", 2.5", 3.5"):
So if I want to replace the mSATA 32 GB SSD with a 64 GB SSD, I would have to get a mSATA SSD, not the typical 2.5" ones. So for this dv7-7212nr laptop, there can be 3 total drives installed: one in the mSATA slot and two in the 2.5'' drive bays. However, the default configuration as sold by HP only has one mSATA 32 GB SSD and one 750 GB SATA hard drive, with the remaining drive bay empty.
This dv7-7212nr laptop does contain all the latest (and perhaps more complex) technologies and HP probably does not expect the typical user/consumer to go and muck around all the default settings. However, if one is curious and willing to make the effort to learn, the material is just a google search away.
Here are the instructions for setting up Intel Rapid STORAGE Technology (aka Intel Smart Response Technology): http://download.intel.com/support/chipsets/sb/intel_smart_response_technology_user_guide.pdf
For this dv7-7212nr laptop, you can ignore steps 1-4 because the BIOS is already configured properly from the factory (unless some changes were made by the end user).
Here are the instructions for setting up Intel Rapid Start Technology:
http://download.intel.com/support/motherboards/desktop/sb/rapid_start_technology_user_guide_v11.pdf
For this particular laptop, ignore steps 1-7 but it is important to do this first: set up Intel Smart Response Technology as above, making sure to allow enough space on the SSD for a hibernation partition that is equal to or greater than the total size of RAM installed. Then follow steps 8 to the end of the guide. It is important to set up Intel Smart Response before Intel Rapid Start because Intel Smart Response will destroy all partitions and data on the disk (if you set up a hibernation partition for Intel Rapid Start first, it will be removed when you set up Intel Smart Response).
I have successfully ENable and DISable these technologies on my laptop using the above guides (with my modifications). WARNING: back up all data before trying any of this.
In your case, I agree that you can also disable Rapid START and just use the whole SSD for acceleration along with the 16 GB RAM upgrade.

"Indesign CS5 has stopped working" when I export to pdf
Hi,
I'm trying to export a file to pdf, nothing fancy, just smallest file size. I get up to the point where I click "export" (after doeing all the settings) and then the program just freezes end I have to use the task manager toexit out of Indesign, and still no pdf. It never happened before on this document until very recently. The problem is, I'm finished with the publication and have to send the client a proof, but I acn't, and I really don't want to have to redo it all. please help.
I don't know if this is related, but when I open the file, it gives a message of missing fonts, when I try to replace these fonts, the same thing happens, the program just freezes.
Any help will be so much appreciated.
El.Hi Peter, thank you so much for your quick response.
The program is definitely frozen, the little icon is not there and I've left it fot up to an hour to give it some time and still nothing, I'm not even able to exit the program. I'm fully up to date with my uploads, I checked it again yesterday.
Is it possible that the file I'm working on is corrupt? If so, any suggestions on how to salvage the dcocument?
Really appreciate your feedback.
Kind regards, El. -
