Grab stopped working on mac 10.6.8 - cant find library/preferences, it is no longer in utilities - only the icon remains unuseable in the dock. Can anyone help?

Folks- I got After Effects to launch by installing OS X 10.8. I did not figure out the problem and am not certain it won't pop up again.

iPhoto just stopped working. It loads pictures, but then goes into rainbow wheel forever. Then I try to force quit it, and then the whole Mac hangs up (had to power cycle it to get it back). I am using OS 10.5.8, and when I run software update, it assures me I have up to date software. I have not added any photos since the last time I used it, probably less than a month ago. What gives?

Try these in order - from best option on down...
1. Do you have an up-to-date back up? If so, try copy the library6.iphoto file from the back up to the iPhoto Library allowing it to overwrite the damaged file.
2. Download <a href="http://www.fatcatsoftware.com/iplm/"><b><u>iPhoto Library Manager</b></u></a> and use its rebuild function. This will create a new library based on data in the albumdata.xml file. Not everything will be brought over - no slideshows, books or calendars, for instance - but it should get all your albums and keywords back.
Because this process creates an entirely new library and leaves your old one untouched, it is non-destructive, and if you're not happy with the results you can simply return to your old one.
3. If neither of these work then you'll need to create and populate a new library.
To create and populate a new *iPhoto 6* library:
Note this will give you a working library with the same Rolls and pictures as before, however, you will lose your albums, keywords, modified versions, books, calendars etc.
Move the iPhoto Library to the desktop
Launch iPhoto. It will ask if you wish to create a new Library. Say Yes.
Go into the iPhoto Library on your desktop and find the Originals folder. From the Originals folder drag the individual Roll Folders to the iPhoto Window and it will recreate them in the new library.
When you're sure all is well you can delete the iPhoto Library on your desktop.
In the future, in addition to your usual back up routine, you might like to make a copy of the library6.iPhoto file whenever you have made changes to the library as protection against database corruption.

PSE 13 solves "Error: Licensing has stopped working" on MAC OS X 10.10.2?

After some years using my reliable PS8 I've got this nasty message and I am unable to work since then.
I've been working on solving the "Error: Licensing has stopped working" on MAC OS X 10.10.2 for a while without success.
Does PSE 13 solves the problem? I just want to be sure that if I buy the new version it is going to work or if I am going to lose another US$ 99 on a piece of software that requires more "MAC OS X" expertise than I have.
Any help, clue or piece of advice is welcome.

Thank you, but it is exactly the paper I've been trying to follow.... I can't go through solution 2 because I got an error when using “sudo python “.
After trying for some days I am thinking about buying the newest version (PSE 13), I just want to be sure I am not going to have the same error.... ;-)

Magic Trackpad - 2 finger scrolling has stopped working in Mac Mail - works in Safari

Hi,
I've been happily using a Magic Trackpad for a couple of years but just recently the two finger scrolling has stopped working in Mac Mail. It still works fine in other apps eg Safari so this seems like a very odd problem ie I can't imagine you can configure it to work in one app and not another! Any suggestions?
Thanks,
Rob

Thank you merleau. I had the very same problem and found your solution perfect. This helped me tremedously.

Forcing program to close, I am deleting a lot of files from my trash but it stopped working about 1/2 way through (1650 files left) so I tried to reboot but it won't let me because a the program is still running which I can't close.

Forcing program to close, I am deleting a lot of files from my trash but it stopped working about 1/2 way through (1650 files left) so I tried to reboot but it won't let me because a the program is still running which I can't close (stuck at 1650 files to go). So it allowed me to click cancel now it says "stopping" for 3hrs now. Is there anyway to force the MacBook Air (new model) to close as you can't remove the battery?

Press and hold the power button until the Mac turns itself off. This force-shutdown should be done only after you've exhausted other options (you seem to have done so).
Wait at least 60 seconds.
Then press the power button to start up the Mac. It will take a little longer to start up because it will perform additional self-tests on the first boot after a forced shutdown.
Once the bootup is complete, you should be able to delete the trash. Hold down the option key while choosing to empty the trash, which will automatically delete "locked" items.

I had original iPhoto app from 2007, but in the last year it stopped working seemingly out of nowhere. Now I just installed iPhoto 9.5.1 but it won't open even after downloading the iPhoto Library Updater. My pictures are lost in the abyss.

Have you run the iPhoto Library Upgrader? You need to direct it to the location of your old iPhoto Library by clicking the "Choose Library" button in the lower right corner of the panel you are seeing when the upgrade starts.

My legally licensed CS6 has stopped working and reverted to trial mode. I paid a bundle for this and don't care to pay more to keep the software I legally own. There seems to be no customer support for this anymore, what do I do?

The only answers I found were things like:
Upgrade to CC or You're out of luck.
This is not okay.
Please Help!

"Similar" problem here. I have bought a new PC, and want to install my precious CS5.5 to the new system.
All I get is an "illegal serial number" message. Even though I deactivated on the old pc and even though I copy the serial (for the pc version) from my official products page (or whatever that page is called)...
That's when the ordeal started to get someone at Adobe to figure out what is wrong.
No voice support for my "old" version. 2011? Old? Come on?!
The chat support is a Turin test, with no solution whatsoever.
The websites linked to in the final "chat" lines which should answer my questions are utterly useless.
So last attempt: I try overhere... and add my questions to you, OP...
Note that the only way in which I can get a fast human reply is by calling the number for buying the new CC! Shame on you Adobe!

I cannot open iCal because of a problem. Can anybody help me? The computer will not allow it to open and sends a message to apple each time. The icon has gone from the dock, but ical works on my iPad and I am afraid to sync it with my computer.?

I have the exact same problem. I have not changed anything. This is probably a bug or something that has gone bad with Mac OS X (10.7.2). I have not found any solution for this on the web.

How do I change desktop folder/safari pictures to registered business icons, I have tried almost every how to on-line but none are worki? I have treing. First how do I get the icon I need from the website and then what?

How do I change Mac desktop folder/safari pictures to registered business icons? I have tried almost everythin but none are working. First how do I capture the business icon from the website, then what?

OK, well to start with, you must have the icon file in the correct format. You need to end up with an .icns file. One of the how-to articles should tell you how to do this - iConvert will also do it.
If it is in the correct format, when you click the icon file to highlight it, and click cmd-i, you will see the Get Info window - at the top left, you should see a mini version of the icon. If you do NOT see that icon correctly, the file is not the correct format. So this will not work for a jpg or png file, for example.
Once you have this window open, go to the thumbnail, click it to highlight it blue, and click cmd-C to copy.
Go to your Safari app from the Applications folder (not from the dock), again click cmd-i to open its Get Info window, and again click its icon to highlight it blue. Now click cmd-V to paste. You will be asked for your admin password to authenticate. The icon should now become the one you've pasted in.
You may need to log out and back in for the effect to show on the application file itself.
You might also want to look into Candybar if you plan on doing a lot of icon customization.

I use Adobe Premiere Elements 11. I want to make a Credit Roll and start off screen and stop with the credit remaining still in the middle of the screen. I know this can be done with CS6. Can this be done in Elements 11? Does Elements 12 or 13 have these

Please let us know if that worked for you.

Recently, there is a bug on my Mac OS X Lion, while trashing an iphoto the errant pic does not go to trash bin, but simply disappears! Which makes it impossible to change my mind. The trash remains empty, yet the pic is gone, and I never even emptied

Recently, there has been a bug on my Mac OS X Lion, while trashing an iphoto the errant pic does not go to trash bin, but simply disappears! Which makes it impossible to change my mind. The trash remains empty, yet the pic is gone, and I never even emptied the trash (because it never made it to the trash)! How to recover the album I just accidently made disappear in this way?

Sorry - there have been no updates to that system for a long time
Try to backup your iPhoto library and lanch iPhoto while holding the option and cannoned keys down - repair permissions and if needed rebuild the database

After updating my iPhone 4s to iOS 6.1, Verification Failed: An SSL error has occurred and a secure connection to the server cannot be made. My wifi connection works; the icon is present at the top left. But Internet won't connect, be it Safari, App Store

After updating my iPhone 4s to iOS 6.1, Verification Failed: "An SSL error has occurred and a secure connection to the server cannot be made." My wifi connection works; the icon is present at the top left. But Internet apps won't connect, be it Safari, App Store or Facebook & instagram. Push notifications also work so posts from Facebook and Instagram still pop-up. Does any one have any ideas? Thanks.

I have the same problem. Worked fine on Friday. My VPN or any ssl site do not work on my iPhone 5. Both work perfect on iPhone 4 and 4s

I have a new mac book pro but cant find a user manual?

I have a new mac book pro and cant find a user manual?

being a windows user I too looked for a book as I had pretty much all large OS changes like XP to w7Pro.... so barnes and noble has what I found to be an excellent book after looking through many at bookstore...
"OS X Mavericks The Missing Manual" which covers OS X 10.9.1 first edition was dec 2013 so recent book 850 plus pages of info and pictures very easy read and the views make it simple to follow.
Me I like technical info but this book is for everyone with sections on just about every topic the OS has.
I do believe I paid like $35 (US) but well worth it as I hadn't touched an Apple since 1988 with truly floppy discs we used to punch nothces in.
Author is a N. Y. Times writer who wrote many a "Missing Manual" as I can't remember the last time anything came with a manual. I had a $4600. windows machine built by Puget Systems and others over the years from Falcon Northwest.... none came with manuals other than similar to Apples quick info foldout.
Good luck

Mountain Lion 1.8.2 update made my dual monitor stop working on Mac Pro mid 2012

Just done Apple's update for Mac OS X Mountain Lion to 1.8.2 and after rebooting my dual monitor stopped working.
If I go on preferences -> Displays it shows me only one of my two monitors, even if I invert the connections the 2nd monitor doesn't shows up and there seems no way to enable it again.
Any suggestion?
P.S. I already tried to set from "Best for display" to "Scaled", but after rebooting Mountain Lion 1.8.2 reset it to "Best for display"

Ok,
did some extra test here, but first of all my configuration:
Mac Pro (Mid 2012) with ATI Radeon HD 5870 1GB.
2 LCD 24" Wide-screen (1st monitor Hyundai W240D and 2nd Monitor HP w2448hc), both LCD worked perfectly until reboot after installing OS X 1.8.2
After reboot only the 1st monitor wored fine, the 2nd not even listed, so tried to invert cable connections on the 2 miniports on the ATI video card, but nothing changed, still only the 1st monitor working.
Did a second test, disconnected the 1st monitor and connected ONLY the 2nd and now the second works fine.
Tried to connect 2nd monitor on a different miniport, and i still works fine.
Updated my MacBook Pro to 1.8.2 (it as an nVidia card) and connected my 2nd monitor to it and everything works fine, both the laptop LCD and my HP LCD are working fine.
So it looks like Apple screwed up the ATI driver on the latest 1.8.2, now only ONE miniport is active.
To all users with the same Mac Pro configuration: hold to update to Mountain Lion 1.8.2 until Apple fix this driver issue.
More info are on the Console output, so will have to contact Apple on-line support to signal this bug.
