Didn't move apps at install - now they don't work

On installation I chose not to move the applications. Couldn't then open them - InDesign is missing Cmaps/system fonts and others need serial numbers (can't find).
Tried a re-install to choose the option of moving the apps but I didn't get given the choice.
Is the problem caused by not moving the apps at installation?
Thanks...

Hi Vickyzed,
welcome to Discussions!
The best and 100% troublefree place to keep applications is the Applications folder (or the Utilities folder).
In the case of such applications that are limited by users licenses, well in addition, better have them installed by the User who will use them on a daily basis.
All you have to do now,
with you new system:
- Login as main user/admin and install your applications in the Applications folder.
Perform a genuine installation of these apps: do not just copy them from the external HD. That way, permissions and everything will take the best possible start from the correct boot drive, associated with your system libraries etc.
- Store files on externals
- Use apps from the boot drive's Applications folder

  • Ring File Unavailable--Nothing has changed, but now they don't work.

    I'm receiving an error message of "Ring File Unavaible". I have ensured it is converted to 8000hz, mono, 8-bit mu law and all of the variables. My Ringlist.xml is good to go. I am accounting for the use of capital letters. The error is not a bad ringlist. The rings worked before, so there is no reason they shouldn't work now. I am restarting the TFTP server everytime I make changes. I deleted everything out of the TFTP File Management and re-uploaded everything in case they were corrupt or anything. I'm at a loss. What else am I missing here?

    Hi Matthew,
    There are some excellent tips from Jason @ Cisco in this thread;
    "After converting the files you will need to upload the files to each CUCM server in your cluster (OS Admin --> TFTP File Managerment --> Upload *directory will be /).
    RingList info:
    Ringlist.xml is case sensitive
    Here is the format for the RingList.xml everything in this file is case sensitive as well.
            Analog Synth 1
            Analog1.raw
            Analog Synth 2
            Analog2.raw
    Make sure to upload the RingList.xml (OS Admin --> TFTP File Managerment --> Upload *directory will be /) to all servers in the cluster, and to restart the tftp service on all servers after upload."

  • Speakers were working with Airport, now they don't work...can someone help?

    My external speakers were working nicely with Itunes and Airport for the last year and then last week, they do not work with Itunes. I think it has to do with the new itunes update. I have tried rebooting my computer and Airport Extreme with no luck. Can somebody please walk me thru the process to get my computer reconnected with my airport!?
    Thank you very much in advance!

    Can somebody please walk me thru the process to get my computer reconnected with my airport!?
    Sure, here are the basic steps to configure the AirPort Express for iTunes streaming:
    AirPort Express Base Station (AX) - iTunes Setup
    Either connect to the AX's wireless network or connect directly, using an Ethernet cable, to the Ethernet port of the AX, and then using the AirPort Utility in "Manual Setup" mode, make the following changes:
    AirPort > Wireless
    o Wireless Mode: Join a wireless network
    o Network Name: <existing wireless network>
    o Wireless Security: <select the encryption type of the existing wireless network>
    o Wireless Password: <enter the existing wireless network password>
    o Verify Password: <re-enter the existing wireless network password>
    Music
    o Enable AirTunes (checked)
    o iTunes Speaker Name: <enter desired speaker name>
    o iTunes Speaker Password: (optional)
    o Verify Password: (optional)
    o Click Update to write the new settings to the AX
    In iTunes:
    iTunes > Preferences... > Advanced > General
    o Look for remote speakers connected with AirTunes (checked)
    The other thing to take into consideration, is that the iTunes host must be able to "communicate" to the AX in order to stream to it. Anything that would "block" the path could prevent audio from reaching the speakers. I would also check your computer's firewall settings to make sure iTunes is not being blocked.

  • I can't update my apps - now they don't work at all

    I don't really use apps on my blackberry but there are two that I use everyday, these are twitter and whatsapp . I don't know if they need updating but they have just stopped working all together, this has happened before but updating them seems to fix it. Now I can't get on to the app world to do this because is says that it needs wifi but I don't have this. Is there any way that I can get onto the app world just using the mobile Internet because this seems like such a silly idea for the people that don't have wifi!
    Solved!
    Go to Solution.

    BlackBerry World does not require a WiFi connection to work.
    At Options > Device > Application Management, what version of AppWorld do you have installed?
    You can delete it there.
    Then, Do a simple reboot on the BlackBerry in this manner: With the BlackBerry device POWERED ON, remove the battery for a minute, and then reinsert the battery to reboot.
    Using your BlackBerry browser, go to www.blackberry.com/appworld and download/install again.

  • After new update app store says 2 apps are installed but they don't appear on screen

    Phone issues required restore and sych and update of new phone - when completed 2 apps were missing from the screen.  I found them thru 'search' and can use them on the phone that way.  After checking to see if I could reinstall from App Store they were shown as 'installed'.  Anyone else have this issue?

  • Satellite A110 Media Apps for Windows Media Player don't work!

    Hello, I've got a Toshiba Satellite A110 Notebook since 2006.
    2 Days ago a friend formated my notebook. In order to make the systemstart a little bit faster, he stopped a few Toshiba applications in the system configuration. My notebook worksa now very good.
    But here is the problem: Before formatting I could use these helpful Media Apps for my Windows Media Player - basically because of laziness to switch between the programms during working. :-)...
    But now, they don't work anymore. :-(
    Is it possible, that we've stopped an application, which is important to make these apps run?
    Or is an additional driver left?
    Or do they only work in cobination with Windows Media Player 10. (now I've installed the WMP 11)
    I hope for your helpful answers.
    But think over, that I'm not such great computer genius! ;-)... :-(

    Try to enable all disabled applications. Go to START > Run and write MSCONFIG inside.
    When the System Configuration window is open go to Startup tab and enable all applications with empty Startup Item.
    Restart your notebook and check if everything works well again.

  • I transferred photos to my computer by cutting and pasting.  I have some on my phone that I didn't cut and paste.  Now they are can and I cannot find them anywhere on phone or computer

    I transferred photos to my computer by cutting and pasting.  I have some on my phone that I didn't cut and paste.  Now they are gone and and I cannot find them anywhere on phone or computer. Are they lost forever.  I have done no back-up recently or icloud.  My daughters 8th grade graduation was on it.  I am devastated.

    A lot of I should haves.  I had too many photos and while at work I opened up the 4 folders inside of the DCIM folder on my phone.  I didn't think it would be a big deal to just cut the photos and paste on my computer as I have  done this before.  i moved one folder that had 803 pictures in it and all was fine.  I ran out of time and unplugged phone and went home.  When I got to work this morning I was looking at my phone and realized I only had 34 pictures.  I knew there should have been 400+ there and they are gone.  Don't know what happened and if they were deleted off phone or computer I cannot see them anywhere.  I didn't back up (I know mistake) Lessoned learned I just hope there is something i can do!

  • HT4009 My in app purchase keep being denied. Why? They were working for the past, uh, 2 years. Now they don't.

    My in app purchase keep being denied. Why? They were working for the past, uh, 2 years. Now they don't. I can't fix it on my own apparently because I'm sent to a rather unhelpful support site.

    If you mean that you are getting a message to contact iTunes Support then you can do so via this link and ask them why the message is appearing (we are fellow users here on these forums, we won't know why) : http://www.apple.com/support/itunes/contact/ - click on Contact iTunes Store Support on the right-hand side of the page, then Purchases, Billing & Redemption

    sorry for the format - my 1st question...

    thanks Kappy.
    the computer has beem working for years after my 1st ram removal; but i may have pushed them back too hard. i did pull firmly - tried pulling up slightly; tried tugging on the sides of the stick; pulling in pulses. the only thing i have not tried is using needle nose plyers with protection on the tab film itself.
    have you had the pulling harder ever work? or break the tab?

  • Silverlight 5 WebBrowser Control - Is the SL5 WebBrowser control is set to work in IE7 mode only? I have a 3rd party web site i'm hosting and now they will not work with IE 7 Compatibility mode. Looks like this control can't detect I'm setup for IE 9.

    Silverlight 5 WebBrowser Control - Is the SL5 WebBrowser control is set to work in IE7 mode only? I have a 3rd party web site I'm hosting and now they will not work with IE 7 Compatibility mode. Looks like this control can't detect I'm setup for IE 9. I'm
    running IE 11 with registry hack for IE 9. I think the SL5 webbrowser control is set to work only in IE 7. can some one verify this or tell me how to set the WebBrowser control up to run either IE8, 9, 10 or 11? I have same issue with machines running IE 8
    and above. This Silverlight 5 application is running out of browser with the elevated privileges (hack) and at test certificates install in proper stores. This application has been running for 2.5 years. Vender switch on some changes a couple days ago that
    broke this application. Help!!

    Hi,
    It seems there is nothing to do with IE mode.
    Please make sure your link still can be accessed.
    The WebBrowser displays HTML content in applications running in a Silverlight 4 or later out-of-browser applications or in Silverlight 5 in-browser trusted applications only.

  • My extensions have stopped working. They appear in the Add-on list as installed, but they don't load with Firefox.

    I have many extensions downloaded. They all worked earlier today, but now none of them are working. They appear in the add-on list as installed, but they don't load. I cannot find them anywhere in any Tools or Options. I use Speed Dial, Read It Later, etc., and they're all gone.

    You can delete the files extensions.* (extensions.rdf, extensions.cache, extensions.ini, extensions.sqlite) and compatibility.ini in the Firefox [[Profiles|profile folder]] to reset the extensions registry. New files will be created when required.
    See "Corrupt extension files": http://kb.mozillazine.org/Unable_to_install_themes_or_extensions
    If you see disabled extensions that are not compatible on the next start in "Tools > Add-ons > Extensions" then click the "Find Updates" button to do a compatibility check.

  • HT201412 My i Pad 3 shows "cannot Access Find My Friends open the app and review your sign in information to continue sharing your location. And I have two buttons : Later and Open but they don't work, As long as I have this situation I can do nothing on

    My i Pad 3 shows "cannot Access Find My Friends open the app and review your sign in information to continue sharing your location. And I have two buttons : Later and Open but they don't work. As long as I have this screen situation, I cann't do anything on my I Pad. Please help !!

    I have the same problem on my iPhone4. It is obviously a bug in the software. Once it pops out I am locked out of my phone. I can't even begin to describe the frustration this causes. All that stuff about holding down the buttons is useless. the phone won't even shut off. I can take a screen shot like that or go to voice control. Even when I got to a wifi connection, I can't get on. This app blocks everything else. This is a serious bug and can have serious consequences. The only thing my phone would do is go to voice control and let me play iTunes or phone people. Some smart phone hey?
    I have finally got to a place with a wide enough wifi to connect my computer and restore the phone. This has lasted over a day!
    I don't even know why Find My Friends is on my phone. Is it part of the package and how do I turn it off?
