ESTK (Mac) BG color broken?

Hello,
ExtendScript Tool Kit CS6 on Mac appears to have issues when trying to change the background color of the text (I'd like to avoid that bright white).
So, Preferences - Fonts and Colors - check All Display Items. No matter what color I pick as "Item Background" I end up with pure black. Except for "Linen", "Aquamarine" and few others - which are pretty sophisticated hues but they don't suit my coding taste ;-)
Is that a know, hopeless issue?
TIA
Davide

How do I install Creative Suite on my new Mac Book when my old Mac Book is broken and disc has been misplaced?

My old Mac Book is broken and no longer turns on. A couple of years ago I bought the Creative Suite from Apple and would like to transfer this to my new Mac Book. However, to make things more complicated I seem to have misplaced my disc. How do you suggest I can transfer the Creative Suite to my new Mac?
Many Thanks,
Jess

You would not want to transfer it even if you could. Transferring doesn't work in most cases. You need to install using installation files. You can download those files (can only provide a general link since you didn't indicate the version)...

You will need your serial number to activate, which is normally on the disc case. If you registered the software when you originally installed it then you might be able to find it recorded in your Adobe account online in the My Products section.

Mac Pro WiFi broken.

I am fixing my Dad's Mac Pro with broken WiFi. I have a Gigabyte WB-300D WiFi adapter left over from when I built my PC in 2012. When I slot it in, it doesn't show up as an AirPort card. What can I do to get my WiFi working?
I don't really want to buy a new adapter.
It's running the latest version of Mavericks (10.9.1).

That adaptor is not Mac compatible hardware. Here's one that is:

Updating iPad to new software no iTunes - I need to update my iPad as no cloud on it. My mac book is broken and I want to know can u link 2 iPads to one tune account without their iTunes account transferring to my iPad and wiping my own?

Hi
My mac book is broken and the only access yo iTunes I have is on other people's computers which are already linked to their iPads or filled with all their own iTunes music.
My iPad needs updates to the new operating system.
My mobile me accoutrements. Will end zoo and switch to cloud.
How can I update my iPad without wiping it and when mobile me switches to cloud it will wipe my address book unless I can back it up first- which I can't as my mac book is broken! And I can't currently update my iPad!
Arghh any suggestions
Thanks

Have the other person make a new user account on their computer. You can then back up your iPad on that new account and update it. You can transfer purchases which will back up your apps and music purchased through itunes to that account. You will not be able to back up music you put on the iPad from other sources but that's about the only thing.
After you are done, they can delete the new user account.

MAC spinning color wheel after CS2 file has been sent to printer or saved??

Using Illustrator 12.0.1 CS2. When sending or saving a file completed in CS2 I get a long drawn out (several hours) Mac spinning color wheel that holds the file ransom until it completes the cycle. I have had CS2 for several years but it suddenly started this shortly after a crashed HD (reloaded the saved CS2 & data to a 2nd Mac that was fire wired to the crashed Mac) and a new set of fonts was loaded. Thanks Scott

I occasionally get the Wheel of Death too and I think most people do to some extent, but it's usually because you have got too many applications running or there's something huge on the clipboard. You can easily clear your clipboard by copying one letter from a file name in the Finder.
But several hours of waiting sounds as if there's something more seriously wrong. If you restart your machine, can you tell me whether the file you were saving when the Wheel of Death appeared was successfully saved despite of the Wheel?

Hi,
have you tried booting your Mac from the recovery partition by holding cmd-r while booting? If that works, then start the Disk Utility from the menu and try a "Repair disk".
After the Disk Utility is finished, try the "Repair Permissions". Though this is a highly overrated "feature", it might even help in your situation. Do this repeatedly until nothing changes. This doesn't mean there won't be any messages left over.
Cheers,
Paul

Apple has many windowlets:"About this Mac", "Inspector", "Colors", "Fonts", "Find

Apple has many windowlets:"About this Mac", "Inspector", "Colors", "Fonts", "Find & Replace". None has a yellow 'Store' button;
only a red 'Delete' button. This is deeply uncool; don't u agree?.

Inverting my Mac's colors -- question

Is there any way to invert my Mac's colors (CTRL + OPT + COMMAND + 8) only on my desktop and not in any of my applications?
Thanks!

Hi,
Recently i also got this flashing question mark error. The apple told me that its an Internal HD error.
Well how common is that with the macbook ?
The apple did changed my Internal HD ( for free). New one - Hitachi. I also have backup on my External HDD where the latest backup was 2 weeks before my Intenal HD crashed.
Is it safe to do the system restore completely on my new internal HD without causing any new problems ? As i have heard that the complete system restore can give lot of trouble.
And one more question, after getting repair, am I eligible to apply for Apple Care protection Plan ?
My warranty expires on 26th January 2010.
Thank you
Milan

Fileserver problems (Win/Mac): file path broken

I'm working in a mixed pc/mac environment. Most clients run Windows, some run Mac OS X, but we're all connected to the same Windows file server.
When I sit at a Mac client and place a picture from the Win server into a ID CS3 document, the path to the photo will look like this (in ID's Link panel):
PARTITION:Clientfolder:project_folder:photo.tif
BUT...
When sitting at a Win client, placing the exact same picture from the same source, the path now look like this:
\\SERVER\partition\Clientfolder\project_folder\photo.tif
Note that the "\\SERVER\" part is not in the Mac path.
This is a problem because whenever we open a document on "the other platform", all links are broken and we must manually re-link them.
I've tried mounting the partition using both "smb" and "afp" protocols on the Mac, but still get the same result.
Any clue as to what is going on is greatly appreciated! :)

>...the Links panel uses platform specific filepaths.
I think there must be more to it than that. I do not normally work this way, but I just tried it, and I had no problem with the links using this setup:
Mac - ID CS3 5.0.2 on MacBookPro 10.5.2
Windows - ID CS3 5.0.2 in Parallels on the same MBP running Vista
"Server" - Windows 2000 sp4 (client)
I created a file on the Mac using images residing on the "server" volume which was mounted as SMB. The link information was a Dennis suggests - "\\Server\Share\Directory\file"
I saved the file, and then opened it under Vista, and there was no complain about the links. Looking at the Link Info, they were also as Dennis described - "Share:Directory:file"
I'm not sure what accounts for our different results, but I'm happy to do any testing with my set up...

Mac M2943 color display connects to G3 tower

Hi,
Does anyone know if the Apple M2943 color display will run on the G3 using a OS9.2? If so what would I need to connect?
HBMB

If your computer is a beige G3, you can plug it in with a DA-15 cable, which is also referred to as a DB-15 cable. For a blue and white G3, you need an adapter to connect the VGA port on the computer to the DA-15 port on the monitor. If you got some software with the monitor, don't install it on a Mac OS 9 system, as it is not compatible with Mac OS 9.

How to change Mac Mavericks colors?

Hey
I have installed the new Mac Mavericks and it's nice but I wanna change the color of the bar up the one has the time and search and that things. It's green now maybe because of the Mavericks background but can I change the bar's colors only without the background?
Thanks!

You can't change the colour of the menu bar unless you use 3rd party utilities and /or hacks. As you rightly pointed out it is green because of the bacground image because it is set to be transculant:
Personally I do not like apps or hacks that alter the appearance of the OS. Not because I think it is perfect but because I am never certain they will not cause any trouble. Maybe I am getting old...
Still, if you insist: change the colour of os x menu bar

Mac bookpro color profile intermittleny changes.

My Mac book pro's color will randomly change to a blue tint (from Color LCD to either CIE RGB or ColorMatch). To fix it, i can go into the color profile and change it back there, but thats becoming a pain in the butt. Is there a way that this can be fixed? Maybe deleting the colour profiles that i do not need... thanks a lot, grant. sorry for the repost.

2 solutions for you:
1- In the system preferences-->Display-->choose the color tab, then select the profile you want then check the "Show profiles for this display only" option,
this will make all the other profiles disappear from the list.
2-go to HD-->Library-->preferences-->ByHost and delete: com.apple.preference.displays.(numbers).plist
then reboot.
Hope that is helpful

.Mac Gallery Color Profile Problems

Love the new features in aperture. I was really excited about the .Mac gallery integration as when I send clients photos i normally just put them on a web directory as a zip file with now pretty gallery at all. I was excited to learn i could publish the full resolution versions to .Mac and it would make a zip file for the client to download. this is great!
The Problem:
1. The downloaded images are in 8bit Adobe RGB. No matter the settings.
What I have observed.
I've made a few galleries to avoid refresh problems.
At first i thought it was because my .psd's and some raw images were in the Adobe RGB color space.
I do edit in 16 bit Adobe RGB in photoshop. One of things that i looove about aperture is i can edit in Adobe RGB and then use Aperture to do color management and bit depths/file types and so on.
I tried making sure all images published were converted to sRGB thinking that it just took the default color space of the original image. This did NOT fix the problem.
Problem occurs with both allow downloading of "Optomized Image" and "Actual Size" settings
any final output is usually 8bit sRGB for anything. Macs are Profile aware but most clients have crummy PC's so images won't display or print properly. It would be awesome if we hat a little bit more control over what is posted for the "download" like pick a setting from the output presets just like you can with the HTML web galleries and such. The preview images for the gallery, (what you see in the browser) are in the sRGB color space. But the downloaded images using the download feature are always in 8bit Adobe RGB no matter what the source color space is in.
Let me know if anyone else is experiencing the same thing or if they know of a fix.

I have the same problem. Most of images are in aRGB and when they are uploaded to the Web Gallery there's no way to convert them to sRGB. The images on the gallery look washed out on other people's PCs.
Does anyone know a fix for this problem?
