Lightroom CC installed but does not run

The CC update has run and I now have Lightroom CC installed .... or so I thought.
I have a new shortcut for LR but it does nothing.
My old LR 5.7.1 still works - if I open this and check for updates it says it is up to date.
The new LR link is "C:\Program Files\Adobe\Adobe Lightroom\lightroom.exe"
After the LR update, CC said it needed updating so I did the update.
It now says I have the following apps installed ...
Photoshop CC                Update Ready
Photoshop CC (2014)      Update Ready
Bridge CC                      Update Ready
Lightroom 5                    Up to date
Lightroom CC (2015)       Up to date
Edge Inspect CC            Up to date
I am not aware of any updates for the first 3 items
I presume the multiple copies of versions may be part of the problem.
Any idea how I proceed?

It seems to have worked !   I was doubtful since I had already rebooted so I thought that would resolve things.
After the logout/login, I launched LR and updated my default catalogue. Then notified me that a third-party plugin was no longer compatible (no problem, I dont use it anyway)
Now it is working
Thanks.

Firefox installed but does not run

System Windows Vista (SP2). First installed Firefox (3.6.3) using a Google Chrome browser,
then did same with an IE(8) browser. In each case Firefox appeared for a fiew Kb's and disappeared. Prior to each installation the previously installed Firefox was uninstalled.
== User Agent ==
Mozilla/4.0 (compatible; MSIE 8.0; Windows NT 6.0; WOW64; Trident/4.0; GTB6.5; SLCC1; .NET CLR 2.0.50727; Media Center PC 5.0; .NET CLR 3.5.21022; .NET CLR 3.5.30729; .NET CLR 3.0.30729)

When I click the "More system details" link next to your post, I don't see the "Microsoft Windows Media Player Plugin" listed (np-mswmp).
Did the plugin installer say that installed correctly?
Did you get it from the "port 25" site?

HI Bill,
Did you set Internet Explorer as the default browser? If not the set it as the default. Check to see if you can do custom install

10.4.11 won't install after download "disk does not meet requirements"

After successfully upgrading to 10.4.6, I was able to download (after three attempts) the upgrade to 10.4.11. When I went to install it, it said the volume I picked (the one the OS is on and just upgraded to Tiger) did not meet the requirements and had the red exclaimation point on it, as did all the other volumes. There is about 8.5 GB of free space on this volume. The upgrade was from the support website and was for the power PC, not the intel. What could be happening?

Hi BDAqua,
This is the only discussion that repeats the "disk does not meet requirements" message I'm getting. I downloaded the combo and get that message. These are my specs:
Machine Name: Power Mac G5
Machine Model: PowerMac7,2
CPU Type: PowerPC 970 (2.2)
Number Of CPUs: 1
CPU Speed: 1.8 GHz
L2 Cache (per CPU): 512 KB
Memory: 3 GB
Bus Speed: 900 MHz
But I can't seem to find any requirements documentation that explains why my PowerPC won't take this upgrade. It's my son's computer and one of his favorite games just raised its req's to 10.4.6. So I went hunting (software update gave me nothing) and found the combo. Any advice appreciated.

"Selected disk does not exist" after install using Unetbootin

Hello, I downloaed core iso file and use unetbootin to created a bootable usb disk, then I booted from the usb disk, installed the system as usual, then I rebooted the machine, the grub menu is shown, but when I selected archlinux, it shows:
Booting 'Arch Linux'
root (hd1,0)
Error 21: Selected disk does not exist
Press any key to continue...
if I press any key, it goes to grub menu again.
I noticed that when I installed the system, the usb disk is /dev/sda1, the harddisk is /dev/sdb1, /dev/sdb2 ... (several partitions), so I guess there is a problem here, and when I reboot, harddisk becomes /dev/sda1 sda2... so the system cannot find /dev/sdb1 2...
I read a post about unetbootin, it did not mention anything about the problem, so I think there is no problem install using unetbootin...

Try to change (hd1,0) pour (hd0,0). GRUB considers the disk from where he was loaded as hd0.
If you want more infos check with http://sourceforge.net/projects/bootinfoscript/
and post it's output.

TS3212 I get an apple application support error when installing itunes. It says uninstall and re-install. Does not work. same message. What is a solution?

I get an apple application support error when installing itunes. It says uninstall and re-install. Does not work. same message. What is a solution?

Is that an error 2 message?
If so, let's try a standalone Apple Application Support install. It still might not install, but fingers crossed any error messages will give us a better idea of the underlying cause of the issue.
Download and save a copy of the iTunesSetup.exe (or iTunes64setup.exe) installer file to your hard drive:
http://www.apple.com/itunes/download/
Download and install the free trial version of WinRAR:
http://www.rarlab.com/
Right-click the iTunesSetup.exe (or iTunes64Setup.exe), and select "Extract to iTunesSetup" (or "Extract to iTunes64Setup"). WinRAR will expand the contents of the file into a folder called "iTunesSetup" (or "iTunes64Setup").
Go into the folder and doubleclick the AppleApplicationSupport.msi to do a standalone AAS install.
Does it install properly for you?
If instead you get an error message during the install, let us know what it says. (Precise text, please.)

While trying to setup a time capsule backup to my MyBookLive external drive, I got the following error message: The network backup disk does not support the required AFP features. What's up with this?

While trying to setup a time capsule backup to my MyBookLive external drive, I got the following error message: The network backup disk does not support the required AFP features. What's up with this?

This means that your NAS does not support the required encryption. Update your NAS to the latest firmware or ditch it and buy a Time Capsule (they are the most reliable when using TM).

Im trying to install a new application on my mac but it keeps on coming up with 'The volume of this disk does not meet the requirements for this update' any ideas how to solve this?

I have recently fully updated my mac to 10.8.2 and i am trying to install a small facebook application but every time i come to chose the disk it says ' OS X facebook developer preview can not be installed on this disk. This volume of this disk does not meet the requirements for this update' any ideas on how to get round this?
thanks

That may be the new Mountain Lion "sandbox" protective software kicking in, possibly, because ML "thinks" that App doesn't meet ML's new strict security requirements. A common phenomena. If you feel the 3rd party App is really OK, you can override this feature and install the new App by holding down the Command key when you click to install the new App. That's one possibility for the error message appearing. If not, another possibility is that that Developer Preview software package requires some previous piece of software be installed prior to downloading this Preview. You would have to check the Facebbok websiste's Developer Forums for help if this is the case.
Hope this helps

I have changed from pc to mac and photoshop elements 2.0 disk does not install on mac

I have changed from pc to mac and photoshop elements 2.0 disk does not install on mac

Hi keltystu,
You are doing 2 things wrong:
1. you are trying to run EXE file(installer) on MAC
2. You are trying to run a very old application on latest configuration which is not compatible and may not fulfill the appropriate requirement.
Thanks

You probably have run out of space, I would delete (or move to an external drive) things that aren't being used as much.

Can anyone tell me what this Time Machine error means? The network backup disk does not support the required AFP features?

Can anyone tell me what this Time Machine error means? The network backup disk does not support the required AFP features?

AFP - Apple Filing Protocol
The Network Attached Storage (NAS) that you are pointing Time Machine at does not have the features needed by Time Machine in order to do its Thing. Time Machine needs some specific features that are not typically available on generic networked storage devices.
There are manufactures that support the Mac OS X HFS+ file system formats and implement all the needed AFP protocol packets necessary so that they can be used with Time Machine, but apparently yours does not.
If you are not using a networked mounted volume for Time Machine, then more information will be needed about your Time Machine setup.

Software Update reports...Your hard disk does not have enough space

<< Your hard disk does not have enough space-3 B is required to download and install the checked updates. Extra space is required for the optimization process. To free up space, remove files from your startup disk, then try again.>>
I've got 127GB free??!!

I ran the Disk Utility and it said that "The volume Macintosh HD appears to be OK." I tried to proceed with my software update and it still says I dont have enough space. I have 159.7GB availible and the error message says I only need 3.75GB of space. What do I do now?! Thanks in advance for your help!

Recovery scenario - Voting disk does not match with the cluster guid

Hi all,
Think of you can not start your guest VMs just because it has a corrupted system.img root image. And assume it contains 5 physical disk( which are all created by the RAC template) hence ASM on them.
What is the simplest recovery scneario of the guest vms (RAC)?
Can it be a feasible scenario for recover of the availablity? (Assume both of the RAC system images are corrupted and we prefer not a system level recovery rather than backup / restore)
1. Create 2 RAC instances using the same networking and hostname details as the ones that are corrupted. - Use 5 different new disks.
2 Shutdown the newly created instances. Drop the disks from the newly created instances using VM manager.
3. Add the old disks whose system image is failing to be recoverd but ASM disks are still in use (from the newly created instances using VM manager.) to the newly created instances.
4. Open the newly created instances
Can we expect the ASM and CRS could be initialized and be opened without a problem?
When I try this scenario I get the folllowing error from the cssd/crsd .
- Cluster guid 9112ddc0824fefd5ff2b7f9f7be8f048 found in voting disk does not match with the cluster guid a3eec66a2854ff0bffe784260856f92a obtained from the GPnP profile.
- Found 0 configured voting files but 1 voting files are required, terminating to ensure data integrity.
What could be the simplest way of recovery of a virtual machine that has healthy ASM disks but corrupted system image?
Thank you

Hi,
you have a similar problem, when trying to clone databases with 11.2.
The problem is that a cluster is uniquely identified, and this information is hold in the OCR and the Voting disks. So exactly these 2 are not to be cloned.
To achieve what you want, simply setup your system in that way, that you have a separate diskgroup for OCR and Voting (and ASM spfile), which is not to be restored in this case of szeanrio.
Only all database files in ASM will then be exchanged later.
Then what you want can be achieved.
However I am not sure that the RAC templates have the option to install OCR and Voting into a separated diskgroup.
Regards
Sebastian
