Device Central will not start

I've installed CS3 Master Suite twice every program works
fine, but Device Central will not start. A message come up saying
"You cannot open the application "Device Central" because it may be
damaged or incomplete". So I poked around in the program Package
and started the Device Central item using Terminal. The program
start right up and runs like it should does anyone know how to fix
this?

I reported this same problem a couple of months ago with my
MacBook and OS X 10.4.9. Upon trying Device Central again, it is
now working perfectly. I've done nothing at all regarding a fix
specific to this product. My guess is that there might be some
dependency that is not satisfied with a standard
installation.

  • Apple mobile device service will not start

    I am attempting to reinstall iTunes onto my laptop. The Apple Mobile Device Service will not not start. I continue to receive the following error message: "Error 1053: The service did not respond to the start or control request in a timely fashion". At first, I had 2 Apple Mobile Device service features on my pc, one which would start right away and the other which generated the error message. I uninstalled everything Apple from my pc and started fresh, only to receive the same error message. Has anyone else experienced this problem? How do I fix it?

  • Device Central will not load web pages

    Started using Device Central to view a web site I'm designing
    for a client. Loading within Dreamweaver and Device Central, pages
    will not load, the program stalls. I have had no luck in finding
    information on-line and cannot re install the application ( it's
    not listed in the reinstall items on my Adobe Web Premium CD ) .
    Some help would be much appreciated!! Running OS X 10.5 on a 2.4
    GHz Intel Core Duo Mac Book Pro.

    Right but like so many things, what works for you does not
    work for me (this was while loading a locally stored, plain old
    html page in the same manner you used).
    Here
    is a screenshot of what I get which is then followed by
    this
    screenshot.
    Perhaps it is a Mac only problem. Until Adobe does or says
    something about it... who knows.

  • My ipod overheated on audio device and will not start

    I had my Ipod classic connected to an audio device and it became very hot and since will not turn on-did I fry it?

    Possibly. How long have you let it sit and cool?  After leaving it to charge for a minimum of 30 minutes, did you try and reset the device by pressing and holding both the Select/Center and Menu buttons together long enough for the Apple logo to appear?

    Well, you downloaded a bootleg copy of iOS 7 beta and have installed it on your phone without being a developer. It has bricked your phone and you cannot get help here because doing what you did has voided your warranty. Have a nice day.

  • When install iTunes 11.1.4   It says Apple Mobile Device Service service will not start.  It was started when I began the installation.  Is this an Apple software bug?

  • Device will not start

    Help!! My Z10 will not start and is only getting to 98% on the loading screen. I have connected it to my computer but it will not register.

    Hi and Welcome to the Community!
    Try removing the SIM and Media Card, then booting up without those. If that goes OK, shut down normally and put the cards back in, and try to boot up again.
    Also, how long do you wait at 98%? Sometimes, things are going on while it appears "stuck", but it's not really stuck...we just have to be more patient. But I cannot tell if you waited 30 minutes, 1 minute, or 5 seconds...
    Good luck and let us know!

    Try a system reset.  It cures many ills and it's quick, easy and harmless...
    Hold down the on/off switch and the Home button simultaneously until the screen blacks out or you see the Apple logo.  Ignore the "Slide to power off" text if it appears.  You will not lose any apps, data, music, movies, settings, etc.

  • I bought my ipad 2 from a friend I am trying to connect to my itunes on my computer and it will not recognize it. It keeps telling me that IPad cant be used because apple mobile device service is not started. can you help

    I bought my IPad 2 from a friend. I have reset to clear all of his information out. I am trying to connect it to my computer to sync my itunes and I keep getting the message that my IPad can't be used because Apple Mobile Device Service is not started can anyone help with this?

    I cannot find "Other" devices. I found Apple Mobile Device under Universal Bus Controllers but cannot see "recovery mode" or any other status. I use Windows Vista.
    When I try to restart Apple Mobile Device Service I get the following message: "The Apple Mobile Device Service on Local Computer started then stopped. Some services stop automatically if they are not in use by other services or programs". What does this mean?
    During the last 48 hours I was able to see my iPad in iTunes only one time during many attemnpts to connect . I haven't been able to see it during the llast several attempts.
    Any suggestions? The standard suggestions have not worked: i.e. stop then start AMDS; tuurn off iPad and PC, then restart both and reconfrom iPad to PC; reload iTunes.

    Yes. I tried the MGA and the vesa driver and it still goes back to the text login and console. Funny thing is that I can do a video control and change the color of the font - but I get no joy on the graphical interface!
