Digital Editions 4.0 will not open after installation on Windows  XP laptop.

Digital Editions  4.0 will not open after installation on Windows XP laptop.  DigitalEditions 3.0 installs and opens fine.  Have tried 4.0 several times.  Removed 3.0 and 4.0, reboot, reinstall 4.0 still will not open.  Error message says Windows has experienced and problem and requires that Digital Editions must be shut down.

Solved my own problem. It was necessary to delete all instances of Adobe Digital Editions in programs and  the registry. After doing so and reinstalling 4.02...., it became available in the "open with" dialogue box and became the default epub reader.

    Can you attach a screenshot or link to the instructions you are following?
    You are on the 3.6 release and Firefox 7.0.1 is out. You can download and install the latest release from http://www.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/new/ if you would like to update now. The 3.6 version will be maintained for a while longer, but you should update when you can.

  • CS^ will not open after installation

    I installed CS6 as an up date to CS5 on a Windows 7 64 bit Home Prem. Installation went fine. All product keys accepted, etc. Program opened and ran. Next day I noticed my icon for photoshop is missing from taskbar. I could not open program with "All Programs." No response to clicking on program name. Tried to use application file in program files to establish a shortcut but no path seems to work. I assumed some corruption occurred so I deleted the program and reinstalled. All went well. Now, a day later same problems as earlier except CS6 icon still in taskbar. I haven't had a chance to use the program so I haven't customized anything. But I would like to be able to start using the program. Help appreciated.

    Check your user privileges and account settings as well as any security tools you may be running. Sounds like a classical case where your user account is limited and anything is only valid during the user session and after that it's deleted or Windows system restore/ your security tool is reverting to a previous state due to not recognizting the install as a valid operation. Mustn't even be the Adobe software, but some reletaed stuff like a globalyl shared system DLL being overwritten and setting off the security stuff...

  • Organizer will not open after I tried backing up photos on external hard drive on Mac. Editor opens, but not Organizer. This is a repost of a problem first reported 10 days ago.

    Organizer will not open after I tried backing up photos on an external hard drive on Mac. Editor opens, but will not launch Organizer. Have tried clearing the catalogs, but nothing works. This was first reported 10 days ago. Had to be out of the country for a week - without photoshop working-- and now I'm back with the same problem. Can someone please help, or do I dump this and try to get some help just reloading the program?

    It had 4 years of photos and videos on it.
    To what did your camera record those photos and videos - camera's internal memory, inserted memory card, other?
    Any remote chance that the latter may still exist for you to use to download the camera files to your new external hard drive?

  • Bridge cc will not open after trying to add patch aom package (adobe output module) to workspace

    bridge cc will not open after trying to add patch aom package (adobe output module) to workspace. this patch was recommended by adobe help to allow creating pdf presentations. the help stated bridge cc was shipped without this and to download aom package win 64. I tried that, and either did something wrong or? I deleted bridge cc 64 bit, then went to cc and downloaded bridge cc (not sure if it is 32 or 64) and the program still does not open. any ideas?

    There are lots of threads on this.  Do a web search.

  • CS5 will not open after upgrading to Yosemite

    CS5 will not open after upgrading to Yosemite

    Hi Clickchris,
    CS5 Photoshop is supported on Mac OS 10.5.7 and 10.6.
    It has not been tested on Yosemite as it is a very old version of the product.
    Please refer to below document.

  • Quicktime will not open after upgrading to "Snow"

    Quicktime will not open after upgrading to "Snow". The light underneath the dock icon lights up but the application does not open. Suggestions?

    Actually, wasting bandwidth is a waste of people's resources who offer to help here. You posted and got answers to your post. What you thought of that would be better (for you) was posting it in every corner of AD that might get read would give you a response 30 nanoseconds faster than posting once. So read your answer and enjoy your computer.
    All you need to do is post in the right forum section, and wait for a response. It will come unless nobody has a clue which rarely occurs.

    Mail is open but it is frozen, being this the reason why you cannot open the Mail window. Press Alt, Command and Esc keys or go to  > Force Quit, select Mail and force quit it. Finally, you will be able to turn off or restart the MacBook

  • PS CS4 will not open after carbon copying drive to new SSD on MacPro

    PS CS4 will not open after carbon copying drive to new SSD on MacPro. Pop-up windows inform me that the scratch disk is not available. I would appreciate any advice on how to rectify this problem.
    Thanks
    marco

    Thanks avanishdivya.
    I was hoping to avoid that route, but guess it's all I can do.
    Thanks for your quick response.
    Do you know if it is a Carbon Copy Cloner issue or just the way Adobe sets it up?
    For future reference, where should the scratch disk reside? I heard it should not be on the boot drive?

  • HT1338 Aperture will not open after update? What do I do?

    Aperture will not open after I updated. What do I do?

    Mgoss, quit the installer or App Store/Software Update (depending on what you're using to update) and restart your machine. With Aperture closed, drag the Aperture application to the trash, then reinstall Aperture from your original media and, if necessary, update again.

  • My aperture library will not open after restoring my whole computer after a kernal panic.  I can not get the Aperture troubleshooting menu to open...any help?

    My aperture library will not open after restoring my whole computer after a kernal panic.  I can not get the Aperture troubleshooting menu to open...any help?

    Leonie,
    Fisrt let me thank you for your reply and assistance!  So here is the problem with so more detail...I was not sure I was going to get any replies ; )
    I restored from a time machine back up.
    History of Failure:
    I was trying to launch Aperture when the kernal panic occured.  My computer had been closed, and asleep and the battery was dead.  I plugged in charger and it was restoring/waking up after being asleep/shutting down from dead battery.  I launched Aperture from the dock and as soon as it opened the kernal panic occured.  After that the computer would not turn on.  It would try to boot then it would shut off.  I even tried to safe boot to no avail.  I went to the Apple store and they told me that the only thing I could do was restore whole computer from back up.  So thats what I did.
    Since then my previous aperture library: "2011" will not open.  I have created a new aperture library "2012", and it runs fine.  I have added new photos for about the past month...no problems. 
    When I launch aperture with 2012 library then try to switch libraries, I get the following prompt: "The selected library is from an older version of Aperture and requires a relaunch to switch."  I choose "Relaunch" and I get the following warning prompt: "There was an error opening the database for the library “~/Pictures/Aperture Library 20111.aplibrary”."  The only option is "Quit"
    Both libraries are version 3.2.3
    Computer stats: 3.06 GHz Core 2 Duo, 8 GB 1067 MHz DDR3 RAM, OS X 10.6.8
    I have tried to launch aperture troubleshooting by holding option+command from both the aperture icon and from the library file, neither will launch the troubleshooting feature.
    I am ok with computers, but not a whiz (mechanical engineer)...to me it seems as though there is a corrupt path or file or some sort of "check" that is failing, becuase the failure occurs so fast after trying to launch aperture. Maybe that doesn't make any sense but just a thought.
    I hope that you may be able to provide some insight.  Thank you again for you time and I hope that you have a nice day!
    Mike

  • System preferences will not open after Yosemite 10.10.2 upgrade

    system preferences will not open after Yosemite 10.10.2 upgrade.  What should I do?

    Reinstalling OS X Without Erasing the Drive
    Boot to the Recovery HD: Restart the computer and after the chime press and hold down the COMMAND and R keys until the menu screen appears. Alternatively, restart the computer and after the chime press and hold down the OPTION key until the boot manager screen appears. Select the Recovery HD and click on the downward pointing arrow button.
    Repair the Hard Drive and Permissions: Upon startup select Disk Utility from the main menu. Repair the Hard Drive and Permissions as follows.
    When the recovery menu appears select Disk Utility. After DU loads select your hard drive entry (mfgr.'s ID and drive size) from the the left side list.  In the DU status area you will see an entry for the S.M.A.R.T. status of the hard drive.  If it does not say "Verified" then the hard drive is failing or failed. (SMART status is not reported on external Firewire or USB drives.) If the drive is "Verified" then select your OS X volume from the list on the left (sub-entry below the drive entry,) click on the First Aid tab, then click on the Repair Disk button. If DU reports any errors that have been fixed, then re-run Repair Disk until no errors are reported. If no errors are reported click on the Repair Permissions button. Wait until the operation completes, then quit DU and return to the main menu.
    Reinstall OS X: Select Reinstall OS X and click on the Continue button.
    Note: You will need an active Internet connection. I suggest using Ethernet if possible because it is three times faster than wireless.

  • IMovie will not open after ram upgrade. How can I fix this?

    I updated the ram on my computer by myself from 2gb to 4gb. Everything seemed to work fine, yet when I go to open imovie, it will not open after endlessly bouncing on my dock. I have verified disk permissions. Repaired disk Permissions. Tried replacing iMovie with the iMovie backup from my time machine. Cleared the system cache. Tried reinstalling it using the ilife 11 disk. Tried installing the previous ilife 09 version. Reinstalled snow leopard and did a time machine back up. Placed the old ram back in the computer. All this things done with no success.
    DOES SOMEBODY HAVE ANY IDEA ON WHAT I COULD DO?
    regards
    Lloyd

    Hi
    My first two thoughts
    • Faulty RAM - There are programs that can test this as Tech-tools (buy or in Apple Care pac)
    • Wrongly inserted RAM - Can be tricky and sometime not obvious - everything's looks OK but in certain situations it just randomly don't work.
    Take out the new RAM and try Your Mac without it to see that it's still OK to start with and then very carefully re-install RAM and now be very careful to see that it snaps in exactly as it's intended to.
    Yours Bengt W
