Extension Manager no longer works

Hi -
While my extensions still seem to be accessible in Dreamweaver CS4, the Extension Manager no longer works. It launches, but no window ever shows up. This is the case whether I launch it from within Dreamweaver, launch it independently or click on an extension I wish to update. I would appreciate any information on what can cause this problem and how it can be solved.
I tried uninstalling Extension Manager with the Uninstaller app, but the checkbox for Extension Manager is grayed out and I cannot select it. If I click Select All and then uncheck the apps I don't want to touch, Extension Manager is also deselected. The only way to keep it selected is if I also leave Fireworks, Illustrator and InDesign selected. But uninstalling all these apps seems like a radical alternative. If I trash Extension Manager manually, I cannot select it in the CS4 installer. Presumably I would have to uninstall the other three apps and reinstall them at the same time I reinstall Extension Manager. There are obviously some dependencies between these four apps, but uninstalling and reinstalling them all is a lot of work to go to for a solution that may not even work.

Sorry, I should have mentioned my operating system. I'm using Mac OS X 10.6.3 on a 3GHz quad core Mac Pro with 8GB of RAM.
I don't use a second monitor so I don't know how the window could have moved off screen, but I tried using the Gather Windows button in the Displays preference pane just in case it had somehow gotten lost; no joy. It doesn't show up with Expose either, not with F9 or F10. I tried deleting the com.Adobe.ExtensionManager.plist file, but it makes no difference. Interestingly, when I launched ExtensionManager it did not create a new plist file. I replaced the existing plist file with a copy from another user account where ExtensionManager works; this, too, does no good. If I leave ExtensionManager running a few minutes, eventually it shows up in the Force Quit window as "not responding", so it definitely appears to be hanging up at some point. I tried looking at the Console log as I launch EM but I don't see anything that clearly indicates what's happening. It's mostly Greek to me anyway.

BB Desktop Manager no longer works with Mac Maverick - Need Help Urgently

I have been a loyal Blackberry user since the Government of Canada officially began using these cell phones. I feel, however, abandoned by Blackberry (they obviously don't believe that it is easier to retain an existing customer than acquire a new one). I'm using a Blackberry Bold (9900) with a Macbook Pro. Everything was fine until I upgraded my Mac operating system to Maverick; my Blackberry Desktop Manager no longer works, so I cannot sync the content (contacts, calendar) of my phone with my Mac, but that's not the worst of it.
I recently had a momentary lapse and exceeded the 10 password attempts to access my phone... this accidentally wiped my phone clean... and because Desktop Manager does not work with Mac, I do not have a way to recover my data. Rogers was of no help and had Blackberry updated its desktop software months ago, as it should have, this issue would have been moot. I do not know how or why, but I was able to recover most of my data, but I'm not sure just how up-to-date tha data is and am still going through it, but I'm having issues with some functionality.
I'm in the US for several months and have suspended my Canadian services. Prior to the wipe, I was able to use wifi on my phone to send and receive emails with no problem. After the wipe, I can't send emails or bbms. I checked my blackberry internet service and all email accounts are good to go. BBMs are another issue. I need help. Suggestions please.

Apple has ceased synchronization with Mavericks. The issue lies with Apple, not with the desktop software. To mitigate the lack of sync capabilities in Mavericks you can sync your contacts and calender on your Mac with the usual suspects (Yahoo, Google). Create a backup (archive) for Contacts and Calender on your Mac first, then create one of those email accouonts that allow syncing. On your 9900 and with BlackBerry provisioning enabled create the new or existing email account. See which email accounts can sync with BB, I know Yahoo is working fine. For Yahoo, get the Yahoo Calender sync (a few bucks one-off payment required), Contacts sync works off the shelf within BB. If you reset the 9900 you should be able to restore all data with BB DTM. Please note that emails you received during the 9900 reset and the date of restore will not be available on the device. You will still not be able to sync contacts/calender over BB DTM. I hope that helps.

I am using CS 5.1. Extension Manager isn't working!

I am using CS 5.1. Extension Manager isn't working! Couldn't download patch! Help!

Hi Nadia Starr
What is the Error Message you're getting ?

Extension Manager CS5 stopped working

Not much to say. The app is not starting anymore, it remains stuck on Loading Extensions, with no CPU load. Pretty much sure it worked. This is like absolutely vital, as I have a text animation component to install and without it I absolutely cannot to my job. I am working on a Windows 7 x64 system, clean and cared for... I tried launching as admin etc, but nothing worked.
EDIT: It was my Kaspersky 2010 that was somehow blocking it. All solved now.

I am having the same issue. I cannot open the Extension Manager to manage or install new dreamweaver extensions. It runs in the processes but does not open a window. I have tried everything, lexcept a uninstall and clean install of the entire creative suite (I want to avoid this b/c I have so much to set back up and it would litterally take me a week).
Well I kind of figure the issue out here, but still have not found the solution to get it to open in my user account. The issue is with the Wiindows user account.
I created a test user account called "test" and gave it administrative rights.
I logged in and clicked on adobe extension manager. It opened. The problem is that you cannot install or manage the extensions on one user to use with another windows user account. BOOOO!
Well does anyone know how I can compare my user settings to see what the heck is causing this issue. When I check my user account information within the control panel and user accounts it only gives little information that can be updated and the original user account where the extension manager is not working is set to administrator in all aspects.
Please any input would be great from anyone. It seems there are a lot of people with this issue.
Thanks,
Ernie T.

Profile Manager no longer works properly after update to FF 29.

I am a developer and I previously used the profile manager to manage 3 instances of Firefox. I had one open for Development, 1 for testing and 1 for production. Each was color coded by a theme for easy discernment of which instance I was in.
After the update to 29, the profile manager no longer seems to work properly. The theme from one profile proliferates to all the profiles and it is now very difficult to tell what instance I am in.

I found that after Firefox v29, a LOT of my settings and 
add-ons were changed / reset. Try this;
'''''[https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/kb/troubleshoot-firefox-issues-using-safe-mode Start Firefox in Safe Mode]'''''
 While you are in safe mode; 
'''''Firefox Options > Advanced > General'''''. 
Look for and turn off '''Use Hardware Acceleration'''. 
Then check ALL of your settings. Browser and add-ons. Then restart.

CS6 extension manager isn't working

I downloaded a couple extensions to use with my CS6 version of Photoshop, but I can't get the Extension Manager to open. I see it down in my task bar, but when I click on it nothing appears. I've tried accessing it from the Program files list and even right-clicking the extensions and choosing "Open", but nothing. I am running Windows 7 Home Premium 64bit.
Any suggestions would be appreciated. Thanks.

Download and reinstall. See if that works

Adobe App Manager no longer works

For some reason my Adobe App Manager does not work on my Macbook. It orginally did but one day it just would not launch. After numerous attempts of uninstalling and re-installing without success, the only workaround solution was to create another user on my Macbook and install the Application Manager on that user's account. I can then download the apps / programs and updates from there. When I log out of that user and back into my main account the Adobe programs work....well most of them. I have noticed that certain programs, like Muse will launch and work correctly under my second user account but it will not luanch without error on the main account.
Everything worked fine one day, then its all messed up. Switching users is not an ideal solution at all. I have spent numerous attempts using Adobe chat but no one can seem to give me a solution that works.
Does anyone have a suggestion for a solution?

Kmonk9000 if you are facing so many issues under your original user account I would recommend migrating your documents and settings to a new user account.
You are welcome to attempt to track down the numerous locations your file permissions for your current user account have become compromised however. I would recommend you begin by looking at your installation logs to determine where you faced file permission failures. Please see Troubleshoot with install logs | CS5, CS5.5, CS6 - http://helpx.adobe.com/creative-suite/kb/troubleshoot-install-logs-cs5-cs5.html for information on how to review the logs.

Acrobat DC: Ink Manager no longer works, as well as Convert Colors to Output intent?

I often have to flatten CMYK+spot PDFs to CMYK only. I normally open the file, click the ink manager, check "Convert all spots to process" and click OK. That takes care of it.
In the latest update, that no longer seems to do anything at all. If I preflight the file after following the old process, the file still shows spot color errors. In order to convert the spot colors I now have to:
1.) Open the file
2.) Open the convert dialog
3.) Click Ink manager in that dialog,
4.) Check "Convert all spots to process"
5.) Click OK in the Convert Colors dialog.
I realize that isn't a lot of work, but over a lot of files it adds up. Plus it should just work as it used to.
Finally, prior to the last two versions of Acrobat, I was able to open the convert colors dialog, check off "Covert Colors to Output Intent" and click OK to convert all spot colors in a file to CMYK. That option appears to be perpetually grayed out.

Hey SeanL_EPS,
Thank you so much for your valuable feedback. I really appreciate that.
Using Acrobat DC, what happens if you simply type 'Ink Manager' in Search Tools text box on the right hand side and check 'Convert all Spots to Process'.
Also, the option to select an 'Output Intent' from Convert Colors requires the PDF document to already have an Output Intent explicitly set.
You might need to first run the Preflight tool which will explicitly set the Output Intent.
You can also refer the following KB file link from here:
Refer: Acrobat Help | Color conversion and ink management (Acrobat Pro DC)
Let me know if you have further queries.
Regards,
Anubha

Screen sharing and remote management no longer working after some uptime

Server is withoiut monitor.
Users need to login via screen sharing from time to time.
"Enable screen sharing and remote management" is ticked in Server.app everything is working fine (for days, weeks).
ARD reports "Screen Sharing Available", so remote management is not running how it should.
Screen Sharing.app is "Connecting…" forever.
Kickstarting ARD (http://support.apple.com/kb/HT2370) does not help.
Restart fixes it.
Is there a workaround (over ssh) or a fix?

Gateway Manager no longer working after upgrade from 10.6.8 to 10.9

Since upgrading my 10.6.8 Server to 10.9, Gateway Manager for Apple Service Toolkit no longer functions. I cannot NETBOOT into AST from either subnet that I have and when opening Gateway Manager, it just says "Searching for Gateway Controller". Does anyone have any suggestions?
Thank you!

I would suggest turning off one of the interfaces to test. Always leave DNS on!
We ran into this when we were running Xsan. Our way around this was to stop Xsan, deactivate the metadata LAN, launch AST to allow it to bind to primary LAN. Then once it acquired the connection, enable your secondary LAN.

Password manager no longer works...settings seem ok..can you help ??

I have looked at the settings, they seem ok...I dont get the bar at the top asking if I would like FFox to remember passwords. It was working earlier this year but not now....not sure if it since FFox was updated

Firefox 4 doesn't show a bar but adds a key icon to the location bar and opens a pop-up dialog similar to what you get if you click the highlighted star to edit a bookmarked page.
Make sure that you not run Firefox in (permanent) [[Private Browsing]] mode.
* You enter Private Browsing mode if you select: Tools > Options > Privacy > History: Firefox will: "Never Remember History"
* To see all History and Cookie settings, choose: Tools > Options > Privacy, choose the setting Firefox will: Use custom settings for history
* Uncheck: [ ] "Permanent Private Browsing mode"

The password manager no longer works after a recent Moodle update.

I'm using Firefox 35.0.1, which used to remember my password at Moodle, but since an update to Moodle 2.8.1, I may briefly see the stored login info but the screen quickly moves to blank login boxes every time. Yet I can see that it is stored in Saved Passwords. (The password info will save correctly in Safari.)

You shouldn't clear cookies on shut down, but let them expire instead.
Details like websites remembering you (log you in automatically) are stored in a cookie.
*Create a cookie 'allow' exception to keep such cookies, especially in case of secure websites and when cookies expire when Firefox is closed.

In case you use "Clear history when Firefox closes" or otherwise clear history:
*do not clear the Cookies

Clearing "Site Preferences" clears all exceptions for cookies, images, pop-up windows, software installation, passwords, and other website specific data.
