    SOLUTION:
    Navigate to
    C:\Program Files\Adobe\Adobe Photoshop CC 2014
    Locate sniffer.exe and rename it ~sniffer.exe
    SOLVED
    This solution was offered by Adobe chat support, after a very long and fruitless exchange. Apparently, the support tech finally asked around, and someone else in the room gave him the correct answer.
    Adobe: I understand you are unable to launch Photoshop CC 2014 as getting error Adobe Photoshop CC 2014 has stopped working on your Windows 7 computer, is that right?

    Me: It's an AMD HD 6700 display
    Adobe: It seems there is an issue with your Graphic Card Drivers.

    Me: Error not happening
    Adobe: Are you able to launch Photoshop CC 2014?
    Me: Yes
    Adobe: It means, issue is with Graphic Card drivers.
    Me: Yes, I knew that
    Adobe: I suggest you to contact Graphic Card drivers and check if you can re-install the drivers and use Photoshop CC 2014 with the Graphic Card
    Me: SO... PS CC 2014 is incompatible with the AMD drivers?
    Me: I've installed 4 versions already. I'm running the latest beta now
    Adobe: Could you please provide me with Full name of the Graphic Card?
    Me: AFAIK, PS CC2014 is the only program that causes this error
    Me: AMD Radeon HD 6700
    Adobe: Dan, issue is due to the Drivers, which are not compatible with Photoshop CC 2014.
    Adobe: You may be able to use other products, however if drivers is not compatible with Photoshop CC 2014, you will not be able to use them with Photoshop CC 2014
    Me: I think that you have that backwards. PS CC2014 is not compatible with the drivers. It is the only known program to have this problem. Well documented.
    Adobe: Please contact Graphic Card provider and check for the drivers or re-install drivers and check.
    Me: I did, and they blame Adobe
    Adobe: Okay
    Adobe: Photoshop CC 2014 is not compatible with the drivers you have for the Graphic Card, there might be issue with drivers.
    Adobe: We have checked with the error logs as well., it show  Fault Module Name: atiocl64.dll 
    Me: Again, PS CC 2014 is the only known program to clash with atiocl64.dll
    Adobe: I can suggest you to check if you can use the product from new Account and use the product or check with Graphic Card provider for the drivers or a proper installation for Graphic Drivers.
    Me: Again, I've done all of that
    Me: They blame Adobe, and frankly, they are correct. The problem only happens with your product
    Adobe: Please use different Graphic Card on your computer and check if you can use it with Photoshop CC 2014.
    Adobe: You can follow below link to know more about supported Graphic Cards.
    Adobe: http://helpx.adobe.com/photoshop/kb/photoshop-cs6-gpu-faq1.html
    Me: Can we elevate this to the next level, please?
    Adobe: We have disabled Graphic Card drivers to check if you can launch the product and you were able to launch the product without using the Graphic Drivers.
    Me: Yes.
    Me: So PS CC 2014 will not work with this card?
    Adobe: Issue is with Graphic Card drivers, we can use Product with graphic Card
    Me: So PS CC 2014 will not work with this card?
    Adobe: Photoshop CC 2014 is compatible with AMD/ATI Radeon, 6000 series.
    Adobe: However you have issue with Graphic card drivers.
    Me: No, Adobe has an issue. And I have an issue with Adobe.

    Adobe: Locate sniffer folder and rename it ~sniffer.
    Adobe: *Locate sniffer file and rename it ~sniffer.
    Adobe: Before that, please re-enable your Graphic Drivers as well.

    Adobe: Please rename  sniffer.exe to  ~sniffer.exe
    Me: Done

  • HT1386 I am getting an error message that syncing failed to start.  Any ideas why?

    I am getting an error message that syncing failed to start.  Any ideas why.  The ipad is working fine.

    Then I tried to download and install them again but it kept saying the old itunes could not be removed.
    (1) Download the Windows Installer CleanUp utility installer file (msicuu2.exe) from the following Major Geeks page (use one of the links under the "DOWNLOAD LOCATIONS" thingy on the Major Geeks page):
    http://majorgeeks.com/download.php?det=4459
    (2) Doubleclick the msicuu2.exe file and follow the prompts to install the Windows Installer CleanUp utility. (If you're on a Windows Vista or Windows 7 system and you get a Code 800A0046 error message when doubleclicking the msicuu2.exe file, try instead right-clicking on the msicuu2.exe file and selecting "Run as administrator".)
    (3) In your Start menu click All Programs and then click Windows Install Clean Up. The Windows Installer CleanUp utility window appears, listing software that is currently installed on your computer.
    (4) In the list of programs that appears in CleanUp, select any iTunes entries and click "Remove", as per the following screenshot:
    (5) Quit out of CleanUp, restart the PC and try another iTunes install. Does it go through properly this time?

    I did not touch my computer the past week, I've only been messing with my laptop.  I had my computer off a whole day.  I turn it on, open iTunes, and everything is gone.
    Is your laptop a different computer than your computer?
    You have two computers?
    iTunes is missing everything from which one/both?
    I system restore.  Everything is gone.  None of my podcasts, apps, or music files are there.
    Do you mean you reinstalled the system from scratch?
    Yes, that tends to delete everything.
    Or you restored everything from a backup?
    Directions on where to go to download all past purchases?
    Selete Store on the left side of iTunes.
    Make sure you are signed in.
    Click on Purchased on the right side under Quick links to redownlaod your purchases.
    Then make sure to regularly backup, backup, backup all your important data .

  • Firefox keeps crashing, no idea why.

    So I recently switched from Opera to Firefox because they had a horrible updated that stripped all the features I loved. Anyways, the first week or so after using firefox it worked fine and never crashed, now recently it crashes almost every 30 minutes or so. I get a crash report asking me if I want to restart. I have no idea why it keeps crashing and I have tried closing all my tabs (I usually have about 6-7 open at all times), but the problem is still there. If you need any information ask and I'll give it. Thanks!

  • Eudora keeps crashing - any idea why

    I just got new HD for MacBook running 10.6.3. The replacement HD from apple care for some reason was installed with 10.5.x so I did a restore by using carbon copy cloner via a good backup HD. I then ran diskwarrior to rebuild the HD, also disk utility with repair permissions.  Ever since my Eudora [yes I am one of the few still using this ] keeps on crashing after a few minutes.
    Anyone have an idea as to why?  I tried deleting eudora and documents, then use time machine backup from mid june backup [as opposed to july backup just before replacing HD].  But after downloading all the emails/attachments, still keeps on crashing...
    Appreciate help with this. 

    Here's some points about eudora to keep in mind when trouble shooting it.  Since you said you restored from a (presumably) working backup you should not be having any problems but I'll mention this stuff anyhow.
    One thing I recall about eudora when running on [snow] leopard was that it's "Getting Attention" preferences sounds should not be set to use eudora's own built in sounds.  So make sure you use some of your system sounds (or any you might have in your own ~/Library/Sounds folder).  Hopefully that will fix it.  If not try the following experiment.
    As a control experiment temporarily rename your ~/Documents/Eudora Folder.  Do this while Eudora is not executing of course.
    With the newly created Eudora folder and possibly Getting Attention sounds changes play around a little while to see if eudora is still crashing on you.  I would assume (hope) it would not.  That means something fouled up in your "real" Eudora Folder.  Get rid of the one created by the experiment and rename your original real eudora folder back as "Eudora Folder".  Now finding what's wrong in there is not going to be straight-forward.
    Possible places that could break in the eudora folder are a mail box (in the Mail Folder), Eudora Settings (where all your preferences are kept), plugins in the Eudora Items, Eudora Filters, and Cache Folder. All you can do is replace each piece one by one until the crash goes away.

    my 2009 mac book  has the pinwheel popping up alot any ideas?

    You'd have to look into Activity Monitor utility, to see if any applications or processes are running or hogging system resources; not just RAM (as it may seem OK even if it isn't; esp in Mavericks) but in the areas of hard drive capacities. Could be you have some other issues not just a too-full hard disk drive, or not enough RAM installed.

    Another utility that could show you plenty of busywork things going on, is Console. The system logs in there can show a detailed list of tons of activity. Perhaps some of the often-repeated results may be worth considering; and go by the time (day, hour, minute) you notice the spinning wheel; look into the logs from then.
    Have you tried starting up in SafeBoot (shift key held on startup, then login screen appears, hold down shift key again when you login) and then run Disk Utility's repair disk permissions? When done, you could try & restart the computer normally.
    If you happen to get incorrect specification RAM (close but not correct) that could also play into a spinning wheel deal; however the problem may be something else that RAM did not cure. Yet bad or incorrect RAM only adds to a pre-existing issue, since it could not solve it. Same with a System Upgrade. To upgrade to Mavericks with problems already does not mean they would go away; often that makes the first condition harder to resolve.
    Good luck & happy computing!

  • System crashing, no idea why

    ok sometime in the night the system crashed, leaving only a blank screen and blinking capslock and scrolllock lights on the keyboard.  couldnt reboot, etc.  same thing just happened while using a text editor and azureus, crashes, video stayed on, but blinking keyboard lights.  any ideas what could be going on
    this is on a 1-day old fresh install of arch64
    thanks
    karsten

    Was the panic logged? (Blinking keyboard lights indicates a kernel panic.)
    If not, see if you can cause it while not in X, and it should come out on your console.

  • Itunes keeps crashing, help please!!

    so today I updated my software (included quicktime, itunes, and a security update) and even downloaded the safari 3 beta. so after I installed the safari 3 beta, everything with safari worked fine. after installing itunes 7.2, it would keep crashing. so I figured the problem was with 7.2, so uninstalled it and reinstalled 7.1, kept crashing. so then I uninstalled and reinstalled safari 2, thinking that would fix everything. nope, itunes keeps crashing. any ideas, please help, thanks

    I actually figured it out. I reinstalled my itunes to 7.1 and then installed 7.2 for the heck of it. and then I realized (after reading how some plug-ins have been screwing it up) that I had installed a plug-in a long time ago and had forgotten about it, so I simply deleted that and everything is fine. So, to the guy that's having the same problem, make sure you don't have any plug-ins installed and if so just delete them.

  • Itunes crashes when iTunes Match runs its Step 3 (not before) - any ideas why and how to fix it?

    Every time iTunes runs the iTunes Match, when iTunes MAtch gets to Step 3 - iTunes stops working - ie crashes. Any idea why and how to fix it? The songs are still uploaded to iCloud etc... but it crashe iTunes every single time

    I cannot explain the failure, but I can tell you that I have a string of approx. 24 emails with Apple and a combined 10hrs of talk time with Apple customer reps that tried helping me precisely for the issue that iTunes Match would crash at Step 3 without fail. Apple even logged my Console and I was talking to an engineer that literally wrote part of the code for iTunes Match (that was the fourth and last level of customer care I was escalated to). The poor man almost quite his job, and I just about demanded a refund for my $25, since iTunes Match simply wasn't working.
    Then I studied at a friend's place, and I noticed that all of a sudden, while iTunes was running in the background, half my library was already uploaded and things were progressing smoothly. It turns out that it had something to do with my modem specifically, as I had already hooked up my computer straight to the modem, taking the router (TimeCapsule) out of the equation. Nothing worked. Firewalls were turned off, no AntiVirus existed, and Apple engineers tried everything possible, incl. remote access on my computer, to get this to work. Nothing worked as long as I was connected to a Motorola Surboard.
    At every other network, wether at Starbucks, my university, or at friends places, however, iTunes Match worked flawlessly.
    After some research online, it turnes out that a handful of people with Motorola Surrboard Xtreme cable modems had similar issues. Eversince, I simply use my neighbors wifi should I need to upload songs, and I have no issues. Oddly enough, matching (not uploading) works just fine with my Motorola.
    Don't ask me how or why, I am interested in computers and work with them a lot, but I am no engineer. I can tell you that simple scientific method pinpointed to the modem, and I haven't had issues since then.
