    The same way - using the CC app. For anything beyond that all too obvious statement you will have to provide technical information. If LR isn't avialable, your system may simply not meet the requirements.

  • Safari and firefox stop working after a few minutes of browsing, regardless of what site I'm on. I have to restart my computer to get internet access again but it only works for a few more minutes, then I have to restart again. Please help!

    Safari and firefox stop working after a few minutes of browsing, regardless of what site I'm on. I have to restart my computer to get internet access again but it only works for a few more minutes, then I have to restart again. I don't get a spinning ball, it just stops working at whatever page it's on. I can close the program just fine but when I re-open it, either safari or firefox, it freezes trying to load the hompage. This started a few days ago after trying to stream a movie on my computer. I'm on a Mac Air OS X Version 10.6.8 and have downloaded all updates. When I go into finder, it says I have over 80 gigs available. Is there some other memory cache that I need to check? Thanks so much for your help.

    It's not a router problem as I explained in my post. If it was a router problem then I wouldn't have the problem everywhere I go. It is an issue with the software.
    Then I guess the millions of people running 10.5.7 with no issues are just hallucinating that their machines are working fine?
    I'm not trying to belittle your issues; you're certainly having them and I know first hand how annoying an intermittent AirPort issue can be. (In fact, mine was due to an AirPort driver bug that no one else seemed to suffer from.)
    The single best diagnostic you could do is take your system running 10.5.7 to an Apple Store, and try using their in-store network.
    If your machine performs flawlessly, it may be a router issue.
    If your machine has connectivity issues there, it may be a hardware problem with your machine.
    There have been numerous people in multiple threads over the years who swore that an update was buggy because things used to work, but returned later to sheepishly admit that they took their machine in, a problem was found and fixed, and now their Mac works flawlessly with the newer software.
    But simply reinstalling 10.5.5 in no way means the explanation of how firmware bugs may be at play here is incorrect.
    In the context of that explanation, all you've done is possibly reinstall software that asks to add "2 + 3."

  • I constatnly have to restart my computer to get my iTunes to open. I have updated to the latest version and still have same problem. What is causing this and how do I fix it?

    I constantly have to restart my computer to get my iTunes to open. Does anyone know of a solution?

    Here are the two ways that I run apps as admin in Win 7. Would recommend trying the first method to see if it works before you use the second method.
    First: I use this one if I only need to do it occasionally (you may find this way tedious after a few days). Right click on iTunes and the context menu will pop up. Click on "Run as administrator" then another popup will open asking you to confirm if you want to allow iTunes to have admin privilleges (this happens every time any app requests higher privelliges), choose yes and if our issues are the same iTunes should load.
    Second: The semi-permenant method, again I'd say try the other method first to see if this will work for you. Right click on iTunes like before but choose Properites, then go to the Compatibility tab. At the bottom you have the ability to give iTunes admin privilleges every time it loads. Check that box, then click apply then OK. You will still see the box I mentioned earlier (I can't get a screen shot of it) asking if its ok to run with higher rights, but this way is a couple of clicks less.
    Let me know if you have any more questions.

  • HT5312 I tried to download a song but Apple is saying I have not used this computer before

    I tried to download a song but Apple is saying I have not used this computer before and that in order to downloas the song I need to "verify my identity" by answering some securiry qiestions.
    This is wrong because I have downloaded scored of songs on this computer but I answered the security queations anyway, only to be told I have answered incorrectly.
    But the anwers were correct.
    Anyone any ideas what might be happening?
    Thank you.

    Have you re-installed or updated the OS on that computer ? There have also been the occasional post from other people when it hasn't been the first purchase.
    If it's not accepting your answers then the page that you posted from has instructions for how to reset them i.e. if you have a rescue email address (which is not the same thing as an alternate email address) set up on your account then steps 1 to 5 half-way down that page should give you a reset link.
    If you don't have a rescue email address (you won't be able to add one until you can answer your questions) then you will need to contact iTunes Support / Apple in your country to get the questions reset.
    Contacting Apple about account security : http://support.apple.com/kb/HT5699
    When they've been reset (and if you don't already have a rescue email address) you can then use the steps half-way down the HT5312 page that you posted from to add a rescue email address for potential future use

  • Help! I have recently updated LR5 and before doing so I was able to email files to clients! (Very Convenient) Now my problem is I have not been able to get pass this error message reading "failed to send" which gives no further detail about what to do to

    Help! I have recently updated LR5 and before doing so I was able to email files to clients! (Very Convenient) Now my problem is I have not been able to get pass this error message reading "failed to send" which gives no further detail about what to do to rectify the situation. Someone please guide me through this! Thanks in advance!

    Did this ever get resolved, as I am having the same issue.  Trying to learn LR5 AFTER a decade using Aperture.   I was able to set up a validated account but when I try to send an e-mail or photo I get the simple " Failed to Send " message.   Using latest version of Mac OS X.

  • I have two email accounts. Before the upgrade I was able to search them individually now it seems to search all emails by default. How can I search them separately.

    I have the same issue - all inboxes merged into one.
    My Gmail account provides a number of subfolders like sent, drafts, own folders - many can be selected, but not the inbox.
    Another account type only provides the sent folder, this goes also for my iCloud account.

  • Si je me désabonne de Photoshop CC, est-ce que je peux continuer à utiliser Light Room fourni avec malgré ça ?

    Bonjour, si lors de mon prochain abonnement à PhotoShop CC je trouve celui-ci trop cher, est-ce que je peux cependant continuer à utiliser LR5 fourni en même temps, même en ne payant plus l'abonnement ? Ou cessera-t-il de fonctionner en même temps que PSCC. Cependant, je comprendrai qu'il ne soit plus mis à jour.
    Merci pour votre réponse - Pierre

    Re bonjour, je suis donc retourné sur Adobe Créative Cloud et je suis étonné que toutes les propositions de CC y apparaissent avec les initiales "CC" et le nom en bleu alors que seul Light Room y apparaît en noir. Photoshop y a été mis à jour 10 fois quand Light Room, aucune fois, semble-t-il ?
    LR a pourtant le N° de version 5.6 et donc je me disais que s'il faisait partie de CC, il comporterait les lettres CC et apparaîtrait en bleu comme toutes les autres applications Adobe CC?
    Enfin, dernière nouvelle, si PS CC 2014 est toujours actif, Light Room aussi, Adobe Créative Cloud semble inexistant ? Et en tout cas, inactif ! Comment le réinstaller ?
    Merci pour vos réponses - Pierre

  • Need to reinstall Photoshop on new computer

    Stolen laptop...got new one and need to reinstall Photoshop CS3 on my new one. Adobe "customer service" is not helpful. I have the original $1,500 software, but when I try to install it. I get an error notice and it only installs a portion (PDF). Advice anyone? I know it's old software, but it worked up until the theft. I really need it for my work.

    I know this is no help-but I have almost exactly the same problem and need to install my $1500 software on a Mavericks machine.  All my work generated using Snow Leopard is no longer available to me.

  • My photoshop has stopped working. Something about the license. Error 150:30 I have photoshop 8 on a Dell XPS. It was fine till I took it to Geek Squad. I have lost the receipt and it has been a while so I can't really take it back.

    Does anyone have any idiot proof instructions on how to fix this? I would also like to upgrade to photoshop 12 if I can get this working again.
    Cheers!

    If you know the file names for your pics, just do a search for them. Usually My Documents or My Pictures is the default folder to rummage through if you can't remember. If the tech did not wipe the hard drive, they are there, somewhere. Elements does not hide them.

  • I currently have photoshop and I want to add Lightroom. How do I do that? Does it cost 9.99 MORE for Lightroom or 9.99 for BOTH??

    I currently have Photoshop and want to add Lightroom. How do I do that? Does it cost 9.99 MORE for Lightroom or is it 9.99 for BOTH?:

    Thanks for the clarification of price. It is not clear to me on the Creative Cloud/ Lightroom /Photoshop download page if it is possible to ADD Lightroom to an existing Photoshop contract. Are you able to help with this question?
    Thx !

  • Need step by step instructions on how to get Lightroom to run in Windows

    First I downloaded Lightroom successfully using newest version of Creative Cloud. It would not run. Literally, nothing happens.
    Then I found some info online that says when Lightroom CC doesn't run, you must uninstall it and download it from the Adobe website instead of using Creative Cloud.
    When I try to download it in either Firefox or Chrome, I get this error message "Firefox/Chrome doesn't know how to open this address, because one of the following protocols (aam) isn't associated with any program or is not allowed in this context."
    After a lot of searching around, I discovered that I needed to download the Adobe Application Manger. I did so but it calls itself the Adobe Update Management Tool. Very confusing.
    Then I went back to the Adobe website and tried to download Lightroom again and got the same error message.
    Next, I ran the Adobe Update Management Tool and clicked on Get and Install Online Updates which seemed to be the only relevant choice. In the dropdown box under Select Product Type, there are many Adobe programs listed but Lightroom isn't one of them. I gave up on trying to download Lightroom directly from the Adobe website.
    I then re-downloaded Lightroom successfully using Creative Cloud. It still would not run.
    Next I found some info online that says you have to go into Appdata > Adobe > Local and rename the OOBE file to OOBE.old, so I did that. Lightroom still would not run. I rebooted. This time when I tried to run Lightroom, I got the screen where you have to accept Adobe's terms and conditions. I did so. Lightroom but still would not run.
    Is there anyone who has been through this and knows exactly what steps in what order I need to take to get Lightroom to run? I have Photoshop CC and it runs without any problems.

    You might reboot and try the other Solution #1/2 items, again.  Since you did so much hacking which may not have been related to the issue, there may be something else not right because of it. 
    You also might try uninstalling and reinstalling LR 5.5 from the cloud, again, or installing the LR 5.5 standalone update from the Adobe updates page:  http://www.adobe.com/downloads/updates/
    You also might try uninstalling your all Adobe software, running the CS Cleaner and installing, again:
    http://helpx.adobe.com/creative-suite/kb/cs5-cleaner-tool-installation-problems.html
    You haven't said what other Adobe software you're running.
    Is this the very first time you've tried to run LR on this computer or have you upgraded from previous versions that worked ok?

  • I just paid for what i thought was light room and have ended up with nothing,creative cloud wont open anything.

    wanted light room and have ended up with creative cloud which wont open anything.wth?

    Adobe does not market old version of their products the old downloads are available mostly for old licences users so they can download their licenced products should they need to.  So if you do not have a licence for Lightroom 3.6 after your 30 days trial install expires you can not use it or purchase a licence.
    It would be a good Idea for you to get a new computer with Windows 7 or 8 on it.  I prefer Windows 7.  If you are still running XP though its a good OS and runs on old Hardware that Windows 7 and 8 can not run on.  Its best to turn those old tired machines into network print servers and have nothing of value on them.  For Windows XP is no longer supported by Microsoft and security holes that are still in XP will not being plugged.  You just inviting the waiting intruders in they will show up it you connect to the web and uses it.
    If you are using old hardware for a modest price you can get a new machine that is more powerful then the one you using.  With wireless devices it nice to have a network printer your current machine will be of no value to anyone.  If you hate the idea on scrapping a working machine a print server may be the was to go IMO.
    If you purchased a Photographer CC subscription you can install the subscription Photoshop CS6 version 13.1.2 that should run on XP with some newer PS features unavailable like 3D any feature the requires a GPU.  CS6 does not support any GPU on Windows XP.   You can do all that LR can do to images and more with Photoshop.  I do not even download Lightroon.  I don't need its library system or desire a second UI over the Adobe RAW conversion Engine.   This save disk space and I don't have to maintain and additional Adobe product and a simpler work-flow.
    Besides CS6 you can install LR 4.4 I do not use LR so I have no ides if it will run on XP.  XP not listed in LR 4.4 requirement.
    found this
    Adobe Photoshop Lightroom 4 does not support Windows XP. This decision did not come lightly and was based on a number of factors. With each version of Lightroom, our goal is always to provide a consistently excellent customer experience. Developing and testing across Operating System versions and platforms to ensure that we’re achieving this goal is a significant effort that takes time and resources. XP is substantially different from Windows Vista and Windows 7, and requires an independent testing matrix, which increases the complexity of our development efforts. Every cycle we need to make difficult resource tradeoff decisions and operating system support competes heavily with new features and performance enhancements planned for each version. The decision this cycle was to end XP support for Lightroom going forward.
