GLitch in CS6 when attempting to open program makes it impossible to use

I am running windows 7 64 bit on my PC. I don't know what I did, but every time I attempt to open preimere, the window won't let me drag it around, I get that chime sound you hear when there is a sub command window open, I assume its the one that wants me to set up the stage for editing. However since the window opens up with only the top visible, I have no idea what exactly is happening. I can't close it or fix it or move it. I hit the return key which causes the program to close however which baffles me too.
So at this time I am unable to use the program. I tried installing the most recent update, but I think its just something I screwed up the last time I used it.

You might try resetting your preferences:
Hold down the Alt key while you launch Pr.
Keep holding it down until you see the Pr Welcome Screen.

  • Memory issue when attempting to open a downloaded ...

    When attempting to open a downloaded image, I get this message 'IMAGE VEWER: Memory full. Close some applications and try again'.
    What could be the issue & how do I solve this?
    Thanks

    I assume re-transferring the image didn't help?
    Under normal circumstances, a 1.3 MB image can't be a problem, since the camera takes pictures around that size.  But the phone doesn't have limitless memory, so the image viewer will have some limitations.  I was able to duplicate your error just now, but only with an 8.4 MB image I found through Google Images.  The resolution was 3880 x 2432 x 24 bit.  If you view the image on a computer, maybe that innocent 1.3 MB file translates into something of similar size, or perhaps it uses an unusual bit depth?  Given the size, that still seems far-fetched, but short of an image viewer bug, that's the only possibility that comes to mind.
    If this is the case and you do need to keep the picture accessible, you'd want to load it into a Photoshop-like program and either crop it, add additional compression, or reduce the bit depth.  Good luck!

  • I get the following message when attempting to open some links. I don't know how to interpret this nor correct it. Please help. "A copy of Firefox is already open. Only one copy of Firefox can be open at a time."

    I see some threads (when I google this question) — but do not understand how to correct it. I have a MB Pro, OS X 10.7.1, not a developer — online all day every day managing a small business. Specifically I receive the message more often when attempting to open a link within a tweet (photo, website, other).

    Most people are going to see that message as a result of not properly closing Firefox, and then attempting to reopen Firefox. This problem is most likely to occur on Windows Operating systems, less frequently on Linux and Mac systems but not unheard of on any system.
    Because you are on a Mac, I am referring you directly to an article that has been reworded for each operating system.
    : http://kb.mozillazine.org/Kill_application
    To properly close Firefox on your Mac use "Firefox" button -> Quit Firefox, and not with the "X" in corner of window which simply closes the window and not necessarily Firefox.
    When you get stuck as you have described you must Force Firefox to terminate as described at the end of the article:
    Mac OS X
    :Open Apple Menu and select "Force Quit". For Mac OS X 10.3 and later, you can also use the Activity Monitor found in your "Utilities" folder (Applications -> Utilities -> Activity Monitor).

  • Acrobat 9.4.4 Pro Crashes When Attempting to Open PDF Form

    OS: Win XP Pro SP3
    The  machine worked fine until Acrobat updated itself to 9.4.4 then the  problem started.  Crashes when attempting to open most PDF Forms - even  when freshly rebooted or repaired.  I originally thought it was related  to a browser or Outlook 2007, but later found that it does it under all  circumstances.  It is my General Manager's machine having the problem,  so I need to get this resolved ASAP.  Your experience and assistance is  much appreciated.
    My temporary fix was to uninstall 9.4.4 - Install 9.0  and turn off automatic updates - worked beautifully.  It would be nice to get to the bottom of this so we can update our CS4 products.
    Another user reported this problem on May 16, 2011 and no one has replied to his post.
    Thanks in advance.

    Please repost in the Acrobat Windows forum.

  • When attempting to open a hyperlink to a PDF file on the web from a Microsoft WORD for Mac 2011 (14.3.9) document, Safari 7.0 instead displays the file as text?

    When attempting to open a hyperlink to a PDF file on the web from a Microsoft WORD for Mac 2011 (14.3.9) document, Safari 7.0 instead displays the file as text?

    As seen in http://answers.microsoft.com/en-us/mac/forum/macoffice2011-macword/has-the-word- 2011-for-mac-invisible-toolbars/018a3ab6-0570-4ad5-abf8-5b6427fdde3e?msgId=e111b f0a-0e32-4fa3-9536-f349dad8439d
    and it worked for me:
    1. Quit Word
    2. In the Finder's menu bar, select Go > Go to folder and type or paste: ~/Library/Preferences/
    3. Click on Go
    4. Locate the preference file com.microsoft.Word.plist, then Option-drag it to the desktop to create a backup copy
    5. Go to Applications/Utilities and open Terminal
    6. Paste the following bold command at the $ prompt (it's a single line):
         defaults write com.microsoft.Word 14\\Toolbars\\Show_HIToolbar -boolean TRUE
    7. Press Return and then quit with Command Q
    8. Start Word and test. If the fix works, trash the backup file in the Desktop file. Otherwise, restore it.
    In the original source the author also mentions the change in Word 2008

    recd following error when attempt to open ebook using ADE 4.0  : "Unable to Download. Error getting License. License Server Communication Problem: E_LIC_LICENSE_SIGN_ERROR" iMac 10.8.5  Chrome Version 37.0.2062.124
    chat with customer service at book company i purchased file:
    "Me: I installed the proper adobe software, adobe digital editions 3.0 (now have updated to 4.0) on my mac running os 10.85 however I am getting the following error code when i try to open the file:
    "Error getting License. License Server Communication Problem:
    E_LIC_LICENSE_SIGN_ERROR"
    Charles P.: Okay, what you need to do unfortunately, is contact Adobe at  http://www.adobe.com and they will need to get your license issue resolved.
    Charles P.: Is there anything else I can assist you with today?
    Me: title of error is    Unable to Download
    Me: i dont see how that would be an adobe problem?
    Charles P.: I understand, but it appears that the reason for the download issue is because of the license error the license is related to the Adobe Digital editions software. I understand how this could be confusing but it's due to the authorization of the ADE software. Adobe would need to correct your account issue with the license
    Me: ok but i thought this was a free license from adobe??!!  this is just a digital editions reader, right??
    Charles P.: That is correct it is a free license but your account has to be associated with one license and yes the Digital edition is a ebook reader that our ebooks use for you to view

    Well, just for the halibut I tried opening the book again today and , GLORY BE!,  it worked.
    Guess it may have taken overnight for Adobe to OK my license to their free ADE software. Also works now using Bluefire app as the reader on my android phone, although it was a pain
    to get the book file in the right file folder for bluefire to see it.
    I hope that time also heels the issue with all other Error Getting License users.

  • When attempting to open Aperature asks for license number

    When attempting to open Aperature, an info box opens requesting my name and serial number. I searched on Apple solutions and downloaded Aperature 3.4.3 which supposedly rectifies this problem. It did not. Although I have my original purchase receipt for this product, I do not have the original box and hence, the product's serial number. This whole exercise has been most frustrating particularly since it occured without warning and blocks me from using a software that I have purchased. Is there any way to extract the serial number? I'd be happy to upgrade but that path also appears to be blocked. When I attempted an upgrade Apple advised that since the product was already installed, I needed to request an upgrade and as noted, when this was done, I was returned to square one.

    What happened before Aperture started to ask for the serial number? Did you change the hardare in any way? Reinstall the system?
    If the problem is accidental and your hardware and software did not change at all, you should be able to restore the licence by restoring the System Library and your User library from a backup of the time, when Aperture has been working properly.  If that succeeds, write the licence number down. It is displayed in the "About" panel: From the main menu bar: Aperture > About Aperture.
    If you cannot restore the library files from your backup, contact Apple with a proof of purchase fr a replacement serial number:
    See:  Pro Application Replacement Serial Numbers
    What is your current Aperture version btw? Are you asking about upgrading from Aperture 2 or an earlier version of Aperture 3?

  • Error 16 when attempting to open Premiere Pro

    I get an Error 16 message when attempting to open Premiere Pro trial.  I've uninstalled and reinstalled a few times.  Followed the recommended suggestion to reset permission folders.  Still no luck launching the application.  I also noticed on the crash report EXC_BAD_ACCESS (SIGSEGV) and KERN_INVALID_ADDRESS at 0x0000000000000000.

    - Unlock Sharing & Permissions
    - Select Read and Write privilege for your user name
