Device discovery does not work with Yosemite

After updating to Yosemite, my (13-inch late 2010) Macbook Air can no longer find the printer on my home network, although I can print by specifying the printer’s IP address. Furthermore, Airport Utility cannot find my Airport Extreme; it says Device Not Found while acknowledging that the Airport Extreme was previously part of my network. However, the same Mac has no difficulty connecting to the internet through the Airport Extreme. It seems that some device discovery protocol (Bonjour?) is no longer working on that Mac.
I updated our other Macbook Air (11-inch mid 2011) to Yosemite without any issues. It finds the printer on the network, and Airport Utility finds the Airport Extreme.
Any suggestions?

Hi, this is Detective Vdawg, and I came across a similar issue when I updated to Yosemite on my MacBook Pro (Retina, 15-inch, Early 2013). Here is what I did. First, turn off all bluetooth devices turn off your printer and your computer. Wait about 15-30 seconds, then press and hold these four buttons for five seconds: shift, control, option, and the power button. What that does is refresh the hardware components; your settings will remain the same as they were before. After the computer reboots, then everything should be working the way it normally does including your device discovery. If that helps, please let me know; also let me know if it does not resolve your issue for whatever reason. I will be searching for different ways to resolve this problem. If you come across any more issues along the way, I would be happy to help you if I can.

Adobe Photoshop Elements 12 does not work with Yosemite 10.10

My Adobe Photoshop Elements 12 does not work with Yosemite 10.10 nor does my Premier Elements 12. When I try to start them up I get the error message. After uninstalling and reinstalling a few times its still the same. Strangely enough PSE 11 seem to work with Yosemite. I uninstalled my Premier Elements as well and it behave the same way. How do I get a new copy of Premier Elements 12 to reinstall?

Just to further test what is happening to my iMac on Yosemite is I downloaded the trial version of Photoshop CC and when I go to launch it it gives mr the same error message as when I try to launch PES 12 or Premier Elements 12. So whatever the problem is it involves all three and so upgrading to Photoshop CC doesn't even help. Could there be an Adobe file damaged or missing somewhere that is common to these and yet does not effect Revel and Lightroom?

I have aperture 3.4.4, which does not work with Yosemite. Is there a way to upgrade my Aperture version, or do I have to buy Aperture again?

I have aperture 3.4.4, which does not work with Yosemite. Is there a way to upgrade my Aperture version, or do I have to buy Aperture again?

If you own any version of Aperture 3, you are entitled to a free update. Only it can be tricky, if your version is not associated with your AppleID, because you bought it with a serial number.
Have you checked, if you can see an update at the App Store Updates page? Or an "Accept" button on the Purchases tab of the app Store?
Contact the AppStore Support and request a redeem code, to be able to buy the update for free. You will need to provide a proof op purchase of Aperture.
Use this link: http://www.apple.com/support/mac/app-store/contact/
Apple sent redeem codes for Aperture 3.6 to several users who had bought the version on disks, if they could provide a serial number. See for example this discussion: (The post marked as the solution)
Re: Aperture update not possible after update to Yosemite
It is really unfortunate you missed the window of opportunity with Mavericks MacOS X 10.9.5, when the update was easy.

Final Cut Pro does not work with Yosemite. Can it be fixed?

Final Cut Pro does not work with Yosemite. Can it be fixed?

Hi Tom, I don't know if you can help me.
I'm using Final Cut version 10.1.4 with Yosemite 10.10.2 and whenever I open FCP it opens for about 5 seconds (not allowing me to click anywhere) before closing with the message "Final Cut Pro quit unexpectedly. click reopen to open the application again. This report will be sent to apple automatically." I have tried opening it multiple times and the same thing has been happening over and over again and i've tried everything I could find on the internet and nothing is working.
HELP.
Jada.

Wireless scanning does not work with Yosemite

My handoff phone call does not work with Yosemite while other apps are working

I have upgraded to Yosemite and tried the handoff with my iPhone 6. First time I tested phone call which worked. I switched off the Mac and went out. When I came back the handoff phone call didn't work anymore, while Safari, Email, etc. are still working via handoff.
Thanks for any help in advance

The iPhone calling feature is not called, "Handoff." Using the terminology incorrectly only adds to the problem. "Handoff," is the feature where apps share documents.
Both "Phone" and "Handoff" are separate features under "Continuity."
This is "Handoff":
This is "Phone" calling:

Printer does not work with Yosemite

After upgrading to Yosemite my Canon LBP 5050n won't print anymore.
i Installed the new driver but that did not solve the problem.
Any idea?

I've read countless threads and posts regarding the printer issues, because I have been trying to trouble shoot mine.
What I'm reading is that, no matter what you do, what driver you update correctly, what preferences you pick, etc., the one common denominator is the newest Yosemite update (10.10.3).
No matter what brand of printer, how new, how well they worked just before the update, suddenly everyone is having issues with their printers.
While appreciate your suggestions and, while some of them sometimes help a few people with a part of their problem, they don't work. And probably won't until there is yet another update to address these bugs.
Could the printer (and all-in-one printer/scanners) issues be somehow related to the new Photos app that replaced iPhoto? Partially?
I admit that I haven't even tried scanning or emailing anything yet because I'm still trying to figure out why in the heck my printer isn't printing in color.
Simple thing. Print a color picture, photo, file, etc, in color as it shows in print preview. But when it prints, it's in black and white.
So we all reinstall or update our drivers for our particular printers and we can't get them to function completely. Some people's printers won't even print, some are fuzzy, some are out of scale, some won't print in color.
We check all our settings like you tell us, we walk through every step like we're told, we do everything correctly. Yes, that includes checking our ink cartridges.
Consider for a moment that we are all adults, not stupid, have owned apple computers for years and aren't new to them; Remember how people say everything was working just fine BEFORE the update. Then go back to all your tech gurus at Apple and bring us a real solution. It's not us. It's not our printers. It's Apple.

Adobe photoshop 5.5 does not work with Yosemite

When I upgraded my Mac to Yosemite, Adobe photoshop ceased to work. Is there any way of fixing this problem?

Yosemite is known to break CS5 installs, so there are two ways to fix this:
Install this Java for OS X 2014-001
If that fails, reinstall CS5.5

How can I delete AOL Desktop software from my system since it does not work with Yosemite?

Trying to delete the AOL desktop software from the system and am not able to do so, what am I missing? Thank you for the assistance.

Download AppCleaner and use that to delete the AOL desktop software. This is what I'm using when I install AOL every few weeks to see if they managed to fix the crashing issue.
Still crashes as of today 1/16 with current download from AOL's site.

Reminders App does not work on Yosemite with two iCloud accounts.

The Reminders App does not work on Yosemite (10.10.1) with two iCloud accounts. It seems like when there are two iCloud accounts connected in Yosemite (10.10.1) the plist file for Reminders disappears.
I have tried restarting Reminders; restarting the mac; starting the mac in recovery mode to repair the disk and disk permissions; and starting the mac in recovery mode and reinstalling OSX.

Yes sharing Reminders list works. The problem is, I have one shared iCloud account with a colleague (shared calendar, Reminders and email). It makes it easier to run our business with a single shared iCloud account...I know it's not the typical usage.

I have done the following:
Downloaded the patched hal version.
used makepkg in /abs/local/trunk/ to create a pkg for pacman
used sudo pacman -U pkgname to install it.
used sudo nano /etc/hal/fdi/policy/preferences.fdi to create the fdi file with the following content:
saved the file and removed my ntfs entryes from fstab and rebooted. and still there is no automount off ntfs partitions.
have i done something wrong?
br fjodork
WARNING: what follows is a guide of what did work for me, I'm still in an early stage of learning linux, so please correct me if anything of what follows is wrong/dangerous/stupid. As I said, this worked for me, it's not pretty, since I was learning each step on the fly and I'm sure there are better ways to do this.
So fjodork, you seem to have done the the necessary steps, though i couldn't get it to work until i first removed hal without dependencies
pacman -Rd hal
it will give you some warning about the dependencies, ignore it since we are reinstalling hal in a few steps.
First i tried to follow Raymano's link, obviously it showed me nothing in the browser so I thought it might be a broken link.
So I downloaded the source tarball from here http://hal.freedesktop.org/releases/hal-0.5.10.tar.gz
unpacked it changed the /tools/hal-storage-mount.c as per Milfadoodle's instructions.
at first I tried to compile directly from source, the process would finish without a glitch though after reboot nothing changed, as if hal weren't
installed, i guess there were issues with paths. anyway read on
Then repacked the source in tarball, copied it to /var/abs/extra/system/hal and modified the PKGBUILD as follows
makedepends=('pkgconfig' 'gperf')
options=('!libtool')
install=hal.install
source=(${pkgname}-${pkgver}.tar.gz #removed url so makepkg looks in the current directory for the tarball
hal
hal-policy.patch
cryptsetup_location.patch
hal-0.5.9-hide-diagnostic.patch
ntfs3g-valid-options.patch)
md5sums=('6641c30a27c00485c6accac5110ff911' # replace with md5sum of your package's sourceball (run md5sum filename)
'882f67668cb14a0a9e4a27ef22278027'
'5ba8b610aa9763a5f42b9f7cbd7a86ad'
then makepkg (i had to add --asroot, don't ask why
and finally pacman -U hal-0.5.10-1-i686.pkg
another reboot and everything worked without a glitch!:D (yeah i know i still haven't got rid of the reboot mentality )
I have also put the policy files as per the wiki instructions.
PS: I know this is a dirty way to getting things done but as i said, I'm just starting
If anyone could comment/correct/explain this post I'd be more than happy, the automount issue was bothering me for about a month now (you'll say why do I need ntfs in the first place? well, I only recently switched for Linux as my primary OS, these are some relics of the M$ era

APPLE TV DOES NOT WORK WITH NETFLIX

APPLE TV DOES NOT WORK WITH NETFLIX, just a black screen and "Netflix is loading" message appears. I can´t even see Netflix´s home page or set up my account. Netflix is working fine on all other devices at home, but in Apple TV.
I have tried the 8.8.8.8 DNS trick, the turn off procedure, the manual IP setting, but nothing....black screen still appears

It started working.....!!!!! (It seems someone back there is listening)
I "forced" an upgrade, I mean it showed "AppleTV is updated", nevertheless I re-started the system using the "return to original configurations" option. Then it updated again by itself to a newer version....and started working perfectly.
I have paired my apple wireless keyboard and it works fine, this way is easier to set up passwords or so (you can also do it with your remote).
TIPS:
I didn´t change any language or video quality configuration (scared to do so)
I changed to ethernet (cable) instead of wireless
My internet plan is 6 Megabytes (it was the same while it wasn't working)
good luck!!
