Running Adobe Acrobat 8 Pro on Windows 7. Have original disc and S/N. Won't run...

Trying to run my older Adobe Acrobat 8 Pro on Windows 7. Have original disc and S/N. Won't run...

I was able to install the program on my computer. (Only glitch was that it asked for a .dll file for Vista which I'm not running.
I was able to activate the program ok. When I try to convert any MS Office document to .pdf, it appears to start the process but just doesn't actually produce a .pdf file. No error message or anything...

To check your S.M.A.R.T status open disk utility and click on your drive and then click on the info icon.

Auto-ejecting external discs and noisy fan on Mountain Lion

After upgrading to OS X 10.8 my MacBook Pro (late 2010) started to auto-eject external discs (flashdisk, camera memory card, MyBook) - what to do to sto stop it?
Sama after upgrade fan started to be very noisy without reason. I tried to reset SMC but it is still same

I agree that I should change the LAN domain from .local to something like .internal or whatever.   I've been running with .local for 5 years on snow leopard server and never had any problems so that was a low priority.
I hope I'm just not seeing some obvious setting in main.cf

Compact Flash Cards Won't Eject

I'm using Lexar UDMA and non-UDMA compact flash cards. I have the combination Lexar CF/SD pop-up USB card reader. It works on my MacPro. On the new unibody Macbook I bought last fall, there is a consistent problem mounting and ejecting cards of either type. When the cards mount, trying to eject them invariably brings up error messages... The first one says, "Can't eject, some app is using the card", if I do nothing often I get another message that says "Device removed improperly...". Then the card appears to eject, but then won't remount. Just a mess. Was in Africa for three weeks shooting and the only reliable way to download images was USB straight from camera to laptop.
Anyone else experiencing this sort of issue?

I'm not having the same issue, bought thought I may be able to help troubleshoot. Are the Mac Pro and MacBook running the same OS level? (i.e. 10.5.6 like your MacBook is)
Also, are you using the pop-up USB reader on both the Mac Pro and the MacBook?
Last, what are you using to move the photographs once you've got the card inserted, are you just dragging and dropping or importing with Aperture or iPhoto?

What's with CS4 and flash cards.

Could we have an update on CS4 and EX1/3 flash cards? Does Premiere CS4 recognize the flash files readily and is it easy to edit or does one need to still go though an intermediate codec to edit this format properly?

EX1/3 flash files? Do you mean the files from the EX1 and EX3? If so, then yes it does...and does so quite well.

IPad3 and flash cards over 32gb

Ran into a problem with my new iPad3 trying to read 64gb flash cards formatted with exFAT file system. Called Support and they said the iPad does not currently support the exFAT file system. Something may be coming out in the Fall but no specifics. So if you buy anything over 32gb you may run into this problem.

Hi Shawn,
As Rick suggested, Flash might be a better alternative to create the flash card. You could then import the animation in Captivate. The drawback will be that you will only be able to see it running when you publish the presentation and manually copy the XML file to the publication folder.
However, you could instead create a static widget and use a "Linked Widget" to deploy your XML file along with the Widget. This way, you should be able to see the Flash cards running in Preview and Publish mode without having to copy the file. I know it works but I never tried to deploy an XML file, only swf files but I don't see why it would not work.

External hard drive and SD card won't auto mount

I am using MBP with retina on Yosemite. MacBook Pro (Retina, 15-inch, Late 2013).
On Maverick, all my external drives used to auto mount. The same was true just after Yosemite was installed. Lately, only my Time Machine hard drive auto mounts and others don't, e.g. my backup drive that I use with Super Duper! and my camera SD card. I have to go to disk utility and mount them manually. I did not see any option for auto mount in disk utility.
Could you please guide me on how to get auto mount back?
Thanks in advance

I have been dealing with this same issue for the past several months. Running a Macbook Pro (Mid 2010) with OS X Yosemite 10.10.1. This problem occurs when I plug in Firewire, USB, or SD card. The external hardware appear to be working fine, it has to be either a setting, or a quirk that needs corrected with Yosemite. I have run all OS systems since Snow Leopard. Never had this problem. Anyone have any ideas?

Updated to 7.7 - now youtube and flash games won't work

I upgraded to 7.7 a while back and ever since then I can't get youtube videos to load or play flash games online though safari. Any idea what could be causing this problem. Please let me know!

whats the format on the external HD?
verify same on another Mac, its likely a dead SATA card inside the external enclosure.
One assumes you arent referring to a 2012 Air with a Toshiba SSD, since the Air contains no hard drives, only a SSD.
2013 Air use Sandisk or Samsung SSD.

Moved media to external drive and now iphone won't sync!

Hi friends
I recently posted this question here: https://discussions.apple.com/thread/5301334?start=0&tstart=0
And Chris was very helpful, but I still can't get it to sync.
The update is that I have now successfully updated my ipod nano and my ipad, but when I plug in my iphone 4s, it goes through the syncing motions, then says "cancelling sync" when it gets to step 6 of 6.
Here is my original post. Please help! :
I recently moved ALL of my media (music, movies, etc) to my external Seagate 1TB hard drive to free up 200+ gig on my Macbook pro. I followed all of the steps, everything works perfectly, iphone is recognized and syncs all playlists, apps, etc EXCEPT it won't add any new music since the transfer.
So for instance, I added a new playlist for the new NIN album. It sits in the exact same place as all of my other music, but when I sync the phone, it only syncs the older media and NIN is nowhere to be found on the iphone.
I've scoured every message board and blog I can find and can't seem to find the answer.
Anyone??

I updated itunes and my iphone with the new IOS7 last night and phone will still not sync with itunes.
Is there really not ONE person in the entire Apple community who can help with the most basic problem there is - syncing my phone with itunes???
I'm asking nicely - please help!!!

Upgraded to firefox 6 and flash player won't work

I've finally upgraded to Firefox 6, after much much hesitation, and now certain sites built in Flash won't work. They work just great in Safari. The upgrade to the latest Flash player worked for Safari, but not Firefox. I've updated the Shockwave player.
No matter how many times I download and install the newest player and restart my browser, it still tells me I have to download and install the newest flash player and restart my browser.
Even Firefox 5 doesn't want to work with Flash...

Download Adobe Flash Player installer 10.3.183.7 (2.94 MB)
* http://get.adobe.com/flashplayer/
* '''When Downloading Plugins Update setup files, Remove Checkmark from Downloading other Optional Softwares with your Plugins (e.g. Toolbars, McAfee, Google Chrome, etc.)'''
* Close Firefox (click '''Firefox''' button and click '''Exit''')
* Open the '''install_flash_player.exe''' file, then follow the installer's instructions.
-> Start Firefox in Safe Mode by Holding down the '''Option''' key while starting your Mozilla Firefox application. (If the Profile Manager opens, select a profile and then hold down the '''Option''' key again while clicking the button to start Firefox.)
* As an alternate method, go to Utilities (in the Applications folder) and open Terminal, then run:
** /Applications/Firefox.app/Contents/MacOS/firefox-bin -safe-mode
-> Firefox Safe Mode window will appear -> DON'T SELECT ANY OPTIONS, just click '''Continue in Safe Mode'''
-> go to a website that uses Flash player:
* http://www.youtube.com/
* http://movies.yahoo.com/
Check and tell if its working while you are Browsing in Firefox Safe Mode.

External drive and hard drives won't show up

I've had off and on problems opening my Pioneer blu-ray burner and my two LaCie external hard drives on my MacBook Pro 4,1 running Snow Leopard. Now, I can't get them to open at all. The cables, the HDs and the drive are all fine on my desktop.
Any suggestions?

Do they show up on the device list in System Profiler? In Disk Utility?

I changed my iTunes to run on my external hardrive and now it won't go back

I changed my iTunes to run on my external hard drive and then decided to switch it back to my PC...now it says it's reading from my PC in the preferences menu but it's still actually running off my external hard drive. Does anyone know what's causing this or how to change it?

VoiceOver changes the gestures used to control iPod. Once VoiceOver is turned on, you have to use VoiceOver gestures to operate iPod—even to turn VoiceOver off again to resume standard operation.
It's easier to use iTunes to turn it off. Connect to iTunes and go to the Summary Pane. Click the "Configure Universal Access..." button. In the "Seeing" section, select "Neither" and click "OK".

Using External HD and iTunes10.iTunes won't recognize old library on ExtHD

All my music is stored on my Lacie Rugged External Drive. In the past when upgrading iTunes, I was always able to just change the location of my media folder (iTunes prefs>Advanced>etc.). However, iTunes 10 doesn't seem to want to read the old library. Any ideas? I was hoping to avoid transferring all the songs on to my new MacBook Pro.

I have a similar problem. Bought an external drive to store music and pictures, followed the instructions on several threads here on how to transfer these from my D drive (the back up drive on the computer itself) to the L drive (the Buffalo Linkstation); changed the location of the library to the correct address where all the music files are (I can see them there) having consolidated them there. It could not find any of them unless I individually located them (there are over 9000 tracks so I have not got time to do that). I changed the location back to the original and it found them again. Next I tried following the thread on the .itl file - using shift and selecting the library on the L drive, but it only found 300 tracks, some bought, some transferred, some full albums, some only part of the album, an apparently random selection. I tried going back to the original .itl file and the same happened - it only found the same small selection of tracks. I know the files are still there - I can see them, but I have no idea how to connect itunes to them. Please help!

New Images and Flash Content won't display

Working in Dreamweaver MX.
Updating some content to existing pages with flash swf files
and jpegs in them. All of the old content works fine, but when I
replace old swf files with new, or add any new jpg files. I get a
broken link image in the browser, or nothing at all. All of the
file paths appear to be correct. The flash swf files test fine in
the browser before I add them to the page in Dreamweaver. New text
content and the layout are updating fine, the jpegs and swf files
are just not showing up, its as if the files did not exist in the
site.
I have been struggling with this for several days and tried
many different ways of finding the problem, but no success this is
turrning into a nightmare.
Please help- anyone.

Post a link to the pages, please.
