    Adobe Creative Cloud (Desktop) does not work properly. The application is blocked : it could not be launch neither stopped. I'm on MAC Yosemite OS, does anyone know how to remove it properly or to force its stop. It does not appear in the launched applications.

    I received no error message. The application was just trying to find applications unsuccessfully.
    I am using MAC OS 10.10.1
    I tried to uninstall the application  but it seems that a kind of deamon is still installed thus providing me to reinstall properly. Do you know where are the elements to remove in order to get my machine just like before ?
    Otherwise I would have to reinstall everything and this would be a pain.
    Thanks for your help.

    It means, tentatively, that system files are missing or damaged and you will have to reinstall Snow Leopard. See the following:
    Reinstall OS X without erasing the drive
    Do the following:
    1. Repair the Hard Drive and Permissions
    Boot from your Snow Leopard Installer disc. After the installer loads select your language and click on the Continue button. When the menu bar appears select Disk Utility from the Utilities menu. After DU loads select your hard drive entry (mfgr.'s ID and drive size) from the the left side list.  In the DU status area you will see an entry for the S.M.A.R.T. status of the hard drive.  If it does not say "Verified" then the hard drive is failing or failed. (SMART status is not reported on external Firewire or USB drives.) If the drive is "Verified" then select your OS X volume from the list on the left (sub-entry below the drive entry,) click on the First Aid tab, then click on the Repair Disk button. If DU reports any errors that have been fixed, then re-run Repair Disk until no errors are reported. If no errors are reported click on the Repair Permissions button. Wait until the operation completes, then quit DU and return to the installer.
    If DU reports errors it cannot fix, then you will need Disk Warrior and/or Tech Tool Pro to repair the drive. If you don't have either of them or if neither of them can fix the drive, then you will need to reformat the drive and reinstall OS X.
    2. Reinstall Snow Leopard
    If the drive is OK then quit DU and return to the installer.  Proceed with reinstalling OS X.  Note that the Snow Leopard installer will not erase your drive or disturb your files.  After installing a fresh copy of OS X the installer will move your Home folder, third-party applications, support items, and network preferences into the newly installed system.
    Download and install the Combo Updater for the version you prefer from support.apple.com/downloads/.

    If you mean that you have been instructed to contact iTunes support, then will need to do what it says, contact iTunes Support. These are user-to-user support forums, if you thought you were contacting Apple by posting here. Go here:

  • The T61 internal mic does not work when docked

    The internal mic does not work when docked. However works fine when undocked.
    Does anyone know how to fix this?

    I go this issue very recently. What I did to solve the problem was probably mentioned before somwehre over the web.
    First of all, I degraded Skype from the latest version to skype 6.1.0.129. Then I went in Skype - Tools - Option - Advanced Settings - Automatic Updates and click "Turn off automatic updates" and Save. I closed (Quit Skype) Skype then.  
    I clicked on Start (in toolbar) and in search area typed Device Meneger. Then in Sound Video and game controlers, highlite and right click on mouse on IDT High Definition Audio Codec and press Unistall. This will unistall IDT drivers from the system. You must restart your computer.
    Once you come back after reboot, you must go again to the Sound Video and game controlers and remove the rest part of your driver. After reboot go Sound Video and game controlers and click "Scan for hardware changes" then system find your IDT Sound Card again. Please install the latest driver (6.10.6367.0) and reboot. After reboot you should have mic working while on Skype. 

  • Adobe Air ServerSocket not Working the same on XP/Vista/7

    I'm having a strange problems with an air socket server i've written.
    I have an Air application written using Flash Builder 4.  It's basically a simple HTTP server.  It's purpose it to open a server on a specific port and serve files (both html and swf) out to a web browser.
    When i run the air application on my desktop (windows 7, firefox 4.0b11, ie8, flash builder 4 compiled with flex sck 4.1.0) everything works correctly.  Whether i run the server through the Flash Builder debugger or actually do the full packaging and install as a standalone air app then run it using the Air Runtime like any user would.  I load up the server, punch in the address from anywhere and the page loads, and the requested swf displays correctly.  While the server is running on my desktop i've tested clients including Windows XP and Vista with IE8, HTC Evo4g Android phone, and the Playstation 3 browser.  From any tested client with the server running on my desktop all requests are handled correctly and pages/swfs load and display correctly.
    The problem comes when i run the air app on another computer.  When i package it and install it on one of my two test systems (Windows XP and Windows Vista) things start to go wonky.  The Air app loads on the two test systems but when a client tries to use their web browser to request a page things don't display correctly.  The client can load the html file fine but the swf that it receives from the server does not display.  I can check the log on the status server and see the HTTP GET being processed, and the file sent.  However, the browser simply displays a blank box where the SWF should be.  With the server running on either of my two test boxes (XP and Vista) the same clients who can connect and display html and swf's delivered from the server experience this problem.
    I think i've eliminated browser request as the problem from testing different browsers on different OS's on each of the test installations.  As best I can tell, the problem is with the server side of the app.  The server uses the SocketServer class to listen for a connection and then writes out the HTML headers and content to the socket manually, i'm not using any external libraries for writing to the socket.
    here's the code for writing to the socket when a swf is requested.
         var content:ByteArray = new ByteArray();
         var stream:FileStream = new FileStream();
         stream.open(file, FileMode.READ);
         stream.readBytes(content);
         stream.close();
         socket.writeUTFBytes("HTTP/1.1 200 OK\n");
         socket.writeUTFBytes("Content-Type: application/x-shockwave-flash\r\n");
         socket.writeUTFBytes("Content-Length: " + content.length + "\r\n\r\n");
         socket.writeBytes(content);
    I don't believe the problem is with the socket write since it works on my desktop but not when the server is running on another.  I'm wondering if the problem is with an external system dependancy.  Are there any external libraries, visual c++ runtimes, tcp/ip libraries that Air uses to fulfil requests to sockets on different operating systems/versions?  I've been searching around the web and browsing through adobe live docs for a few hours on this but can't seem to find a resolution anywhere.  If more detail is needed, please let me know.  Any help would be much appreciated.

    I appreciate you taking the time to look at this.  Good to know I'm not completely crazy, that makes me feel a little better.
    The 178774 is bytesLoaded()   and 1096810 is bytesTotal() as seen by the swf.
    That's what i was experiencing.  The issue you're seeing with it running on vista of the swf apparently only loading 180k of the 1 meg is what i'm experiencing.  For me that  happens when the server side of things is running on my XP or Vista  machine.  On Win 7 it works fine.  Also, for mp3's it seems to only download the first couple seconds.  When i stream an mp3 from the server it only plays a couple of seconds and stops.
    Not sure if the index.html file that it serves out is small enough that it gets it in one cycle but for larger files it closes out the socket before sending all the data.
    If i get some free time tomorrow i'll see about getting an Ubuntu  virtual machine going and test it there as well.  I don't have access to  a mac to try it on OSX.

  • I restarted my mac and many apps and files disappeared. It's like it booted to a state several months ago. My CS 5 apps are not in the dock or applications folder. Has this ever happened before and what can I do?

    It's like it booted to a state it was in several months ago. My CS 5 apps are not in the dock or applications folder. Has this ever happened before and what can I do?
    The files on my desktop are not the ones that were there when I shut down. It's like it's gone back in time.
    My display's power supply got fried (I think) in a power outage so I bought a new one. However, every time I restart the display usually stays black. I have found I need to keep rebooting until it kicks in and starts working. I unplug everything, wait a while (a few minutes to overnight) and try booting again.
    This last time the display finally came on but I'm faced with this problem. I used to use time machine, but I deleted everything and disabled it a couple months ago or more so I'm at aloss as to why the mac is booting into the state it was in sevearl months ago.
    What could I have done to cause this? Has this ever happened to anyone else and is there a solution?
    Note: I did a search for a file I knew was created today. I found it and it showed that it was a file I had saved on the desktop this morning--even though that file's icon is not appearing on the desktop now.
    I did a search for photoshop and saw my CS5 version listed.
    However, I did a couple more searches and these files no longer appear in the search. I don't know if they're there or not. This is bizarre!
    I'm on a Mac Pro, 10.6.2.

    Thanks for the obvious question. I mean it. The very same thought came to me this morning and, sure enough, I had booted into another drive--my old one that, of course, had the old desktop, etc.
    It didn't dawn on me that this was the case since I hadn't set it as a boot drive but I guess in the course of all the restarts I did, it got switched.
    I'm back to normal again.

    Hello paulina,
    sometimes - for whatever reasons - CC doesn't "want" to work. In this case you should CC completely delete and reinstall by help of Adobe Creative Cloud Cleaner Tool, don't use your own resources, that's insufficient!
    I quote: ... helps resolve installation problems for Adobe Creative Cloud and Adobe Creative Suite (CS3-CS6) applications. The tool removes installation records for prerelease installations of Creative Cloud or Creative Suite applications. It does not affect existing installations of previous versions of Creative Cloud or Creative Suite applications.
    Please use: http://helpx.adobe.com/creative-suite/kb/cs5-cleaner-tool-installation-problems.html. Please follow the prescribed sequence of operations
    If necessary and for further questions and if "open" please use chat, I had the best experiences.
