Has anyone been able to contact Adobe to learn why their Flash Player does not work on Mac OS 10.6.8, no matter how many updates you install? This seems like a big error by Adobe.

I have thee Mac computers with Mac OS 10.6.8, one of which is a Mac Pro. No matter how many updates I install from Adobe, their Flash Player does not work on any of these 3 computers. I don't know how to contact Adobe Systems about this problem, but I think it is their responsibility to make sure that their so-called "universal" software works proplerly on a relatively recent operating system like OS 10.6.8 that is still in widespread use. When you install the updates, nothing happens -- not even an error message. What is the point of a universal player that is not universal? It works fine on my MacBook Pro with OS 9 Mavericks, but it does not work at all -- indeed, has never worked -- on my 3 Macs with OS 10.6.8. Has anyone contacted Adobe Systems to find out why the Flash Player does not work with OS 10.6.8 and what they plan to do about it?

Where are you getting Flash from?
Get the appropriate dmg installer here and then run it.
http://www.adobe.com/products/flashplayer/distribution3.html
If it still won't install, do these two things: First uninstall any Flash by going into the second level Hard Drive Library>Internet Plug-ins, and trash the Flash Player.plugin and flashplayer.xpt. Then boot into Safe Boot, Shift at the startup chime (give it much longer than a usual boot) and run the installer while booted in Safe Boot.

I'm going to assume that since you deleted your hard drive and all its files, you had a backup, yes? If the backup has an OS (bootable clone), then you can boot into it by holding down the option key when you start up you iMac and choose the backup drive. Then use Carbon Copy Cloner or Super Duper to copy the files back to your iMac.

Firefox Find on Page does not work reliably in XML.

I'm troubleshooting xml in firefox. I noticed that CTRL -F find on page does not work for finding strings "reliably".
Sometimes it finds something and sometimes it doesn't.
"Strings that are there"..
You can find next, next, if it worked, but then if you find previous it will fail at some point.
(View source, find on page) works though.. but not a native page.

Make sure that "Match case" on the find bar (Ctrl+F) doesn't have a check mark.

Taking Z1 back to shops!! going back to Apple: Sony Bridge for Mac does not work

Been an Iphone owner. really, really wanted to try a good android phone, and the z1 looked the best. However
I have had the most frustrating experience- this junky bridge software looks slick but it simply does not work on a mac .
I have spent nearly a week mucking around on forums, reading technical 'get arounds' this is a £600 phone and its not good enough. It might be Apples fault for being so locked down, but sony should not claim it works when it has so many issues.
1) it spent 3 days trying to load my media. It eventually got stuck on 10 min remaining. I pulled the cable.
no contacts had even been added, however 1/2 the photos have, but they are a little jumbled up from when they were on my iphone.
2) i try to download the lastest sony for Mac update 3 times- it cant even do this and gets stuck
3) i then try to update the z1 with the latest software, again this also it gets stuck and hangs. OMG how can i update my software, do i have to buy a PC to go with the phone.
im annoyed now and cant play with my new phone
4) connect phone again and just ask it to do my notes, messages and contacts. This seems to work , but all the messages to my Girfriend are completley missing?? why?
5) i try to load a few folders, the pictures on the bridge pop up window seem to freeze , ai cant even drag these across, the same happens with my music
6) i have a lot of photos on my mac form my iphone 3000. If i choose to load them it only allows me to load all of them and not browse.
can i avoid bridge and view my z1 as a drive? also why wont any of the software update?
the next thing is it seems to have infected teh mac, the new version f itunes will not install correctly!! this is very unusual.
some one please helpme before i rant in my blog!

Hi Inventsc,
I apologize for the late answer. I'm sorry you haven't had a pleasant experience using Bridge. We are aware of the problems you mention and are working on it. As mentioned, you can connect your phone in MSC (mass storage mode). To do this, disconnect the phone, find USB connectivity settings and set it to MSC mode before plugging it in again.
Again, I am sorry it's not working properly for you.
Best Regards,
David

Mac os 10.4.10 software update problem -- my mac does not work anymore :(

hello!
i have a powerbook G4- PPC. just today, i did a software update of my OS to 10.4.10 (it was the available update version according to the automatic uptae) and during the final stage of the installation, it says "a problem was encountered...installation package is moved to trash"
when i browsed my mac, my apps does not work anymore!!! they just bounce from the dock when i clicked it but it won't open any window. i emptied the trash and restarted my mac but sadly, it just boot but won't continue to the log in part, only in the silver window with the apple logo and mac os x tiger... and the mouse just turns into the color wheel. i waited for 30 mins and nothing happened.
i don't have a startup disc because the mac is a gift and it was long time ago. is ther a software i can use to fix or revert the changes of the unsuccessful OS update? why is there always a problem when i do OS update? isn't apple software stable?
My mac problems' driving me crazy!!!

There are no guarantees, but following this procedure when installing updates and upgrades on your Mac will go a long way towards avoiding unpleasant after effects and ‘post-update stress disorder’.
It is also worth noting that it is an extreme rarity for updates to cause upsets to your system, but they may well reveal pre-existing ones, particularly those of which you may have been unaware. If you are actually aware of any glitches, make sure they are fixed before proceeding further.
So before you do anything else:
If you can, make a full backup first.
Turn off sleep mode for both screen and hard disk.
1. Repair Permissions (in Disk Utility)
2. Verify the state of your hard disk using Disk Utility. If any faults are reported, restart from your install disk (holding down the C key), go to Disk Utility, and repair your startup disk. Restart again to get back to your startup disk.
At least you can now be reasonably certain that your system does not contain any obvious faults that might cause an update/upgrade to fail.
3. Download the correct version of the COMBO update from the Apple download site. If your car runs on gasoline you would not want to fill the tank with diesel, so don’t try to install the PPC updater on an Intel Mac!
If you prefer to download updates via Software Update in the Apple menu (which would ensure that the correct version for your Mac was being downloaded), it is not recommended to allow SU to install major (or even minor) updates automatically. Set Software Update to just download the updater without immediately installing it. There is always the possibility that the combined download and install (which can be a lengthy process) might be interrupted by a power outage or your cat walking across the keyboard, and an interrupted install will almost certainly cause havoc. Once it is downloaded, you can install at a time that suits you. You should make a backup copy of the updater on a CD in case you ever need a reinstall.
Using the Combo updater ensures that all system files changed since the original 10.4.0 are included, and any that may have been missed out or subsequently damaged will be repaired. The Delta updater, although a temptingly smaller download, only takes you from the previous version to the new one, i.e. for example from 10.4.9 to 10.4.10. Software Update will generally download the Delta updater only. The preferable Combo updater needs to be downloaded from Apple's download site.
Now proceed as follows:
4. Close all applications.
5. Unplug all peripherals except your keyboard and mouse.
6. Install the update/upgrade. Do not under any circumstances interrupt this procedure. Do not do anything else on your computer while it is installing. Be patient.
7. When it ask for a restart to complete the installation, click restart. This can take longer than normal, there are probably thousands of files to overwrite and place in the correct location. Do nothing while this is going on.
8. Once your Mac is awake, repair permissions again, and you should be good to go!
If your Mac seems slightly sluggish or ‘different’, perform a second restart. It can’t hurt and is sometimes efficacious!
9. Open a few of your most used applications and check that all is OK. In this connection please remember that not all manufacturers of third party applications and plug-ins, add-ons, haxies etc, will have had time to do any necessary rewrites to their software to make them 10.4.10. compliant. Give them a weeks or two while you regularly check their websites for updates. This applies particularly to plug-ins for Safari 3.
N.B. Do not attempt to install two different updates at the same time as each may have different routines and requirements. Follow the above recommendations for each update in turn.
Lastly, Apple's own article on the subject of Software Update may also be useful reading:
http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=106695

BB desktop for Mac Does not work Curve and G5 OSX 10.5

The RIM software simply does not work very well. I will keep it to update software, but as a product to sync my data between my BB and my 2 macs, it simply does not do what is needed.
Sync did not move the Address Book groups data over. The groups moved to the BB, but the groups were empty. Most of the address book contacts did have the group information in each file, but I could not filter by group as each group was empty. Also, a disturbing number of entries were duplicated, with the duplicated entries missing the group information.
The sync from the iCal application did not seem to go very well either as I received error messages on my Mac.
I am disappointed that RIM would not have a 32 bit version available for OS 10.2 - 10.5 and a 64 bit version for 10.6
I am surprised and disappointed that RIM would release a product with less functionality than the Mark/Space offering, and have a lack of bluetooth syncing.
I have gone back to "The Missing Sync" as that product does work and their support is very good. Unfortunately I had to play around with setting up a test account with no data in iCal and Address Book to zero out the errors that the RIM product put into my BB. I then had to do a second overwrite, this time with my main Mac account and my iCal and Address Book data.
My BB is back to running and syncing, but not on the RIM software.
I hope that RIM will revisit the Mac software and provide a product that answers the needs of the Mac community.

These instructions must be carried out as an administrator. If you have only one user account, you are the administrator.
Launch the Console application in any of the following ways:
☞ Enter the first few letters of its name into a Spotlight search. Select it in the results (it should be at the top.)
☞ In the Finder, select Go ▹ Utilities from the menu bar, or press the key combination shift-command-U. The application is in the folder that opens.
☞ Open LaunchPad and start typing the name.
The title of the Console window should be All Messages. If it isn't, select
SYSTEM LOG QUERIES ▹ All Messages
from the log list on the left. If you don't see that list, select
View ▹ Show Log List
from the menu bar at the top of the screen.
In the top right corner of the Console window, there's a search box labeled Filter. Initially the words "String Matching" are shown in that box. Enter the word "Starting" (without the quotes.) You should now see log messages with the words "Starting * backup," where * represents any of the words "automatic," "manual," or "standard."
Each message in the log begins with the date and time when it was entered. Note the timestamp of the last "Starting" message that corresponds to the beginning of an an abnormal backup. Now
CLEAR THE WORD "Starting" FROM THE TEXT FIELD
so that all messages are showing, and scroll back in the log to the time you noted. Select the messages timestamped from then until the end of the backup, or the end of the log if that's not clear. Copy them to the Clipboard by pressing the key combination command-C. Paste into a reply to this message by pressing command-V.
☞ If all you see are messages that contain the word "Starting," you didn't clear the text field.
☞ The log contains a vast amount of information, almost all of which is irrelevant to solving any particular problem. When posting a log extract, be selective. Don't post more than is requested.
Please don't indiscriminately dump thousands of lines from the log into this discussion.
Please don't post screenshots of log messages—post the text.
☞ Some private information, such as your name, may appear in the log. Anonymize before posting.

Syncing mail between macs does not work (go daddy account)

I upgraded to Lion on both - my Mac Pro and Macbookpro. I have a go daddy mail account that I switched recently from pop to - imap. I had already problems when I set it up the port numbers that godaddy provided - mail did not work at all (receiving or sending). I am using now "default port" no SSL for outgoing server and in advanced 143, no SSL. I am able to send and receive emails but since I upgraded to Lion syncing does not work well. For example I delete an email on the macpro and it still shows up on the laptop. I read in the forum and changed settings ( like uncheck "move/store deleted messages", changed ports back and forth) still not working. Am also using an ipad and 2 iphones but the computers are priority.
Support from apple told me it is not their problem. Go daddy says the same.

Gmail has its own application you can install to access your Gmail account - it's really good, and will let you view by inbox/starred/labels etc.
Well worth getting:
Gmail Mobile
Not sure whether it works with the E61, but it's worth a try - I really do much prefer it to the pop3 access that's built in for gmail

Downloading "devicetool.jar" to my Mac does not work

I just received the palm pixi plus, it is from at&t, but I need it Unblocked because I live abroad and have no data plan in the USA, so I'm following the instruction from:
https://developer.palm.com/content/resources/develop/developing_on_an_unactivated_device.html
    Download the activation-bypass tool, which is available here, and save it in the location of your choice.
    Boot your device into recovery mode, as described above.
    Run the activation-bypass tool from the command line by issuing the following command: java -jar devicetool.jar
When I download the devicetool.jar to my MacBook, it does not work, it download as a folder, and I cannot run the activation-bypass tool
How can I solve this issue?
Is it a problem of the devicetool.jar for the Mac?

Hi, thanks for your answer. YES I do have JAVA SE6 in my MacBook, and once I download the devicetool.jar it opens with a Jar Launcher (13.6.0) and the StuffIt Expander, but opens as a Folder (with 3 folders inside: com, org, META-INF) and I cannot execute the devicetool.jar
Sounds like StuffIt Exander is opening the file. I don't own a Mac, so I don't know how to do this, but can you force the file to open with another application (maybe control clicking on it and selecting Open With) Then choose the Jar Launcher?

.mac does not work with domain name

I used Iweb 08 to host my domain name from godaddy.com.
Godaddy account is: http://www.eyalphotography.com/
.mac web page is: http://web.mac.com/enahmias
I published to .Mac and went through the personal domain name procedure (using .Mac account settings and godaddy CNAME) so now .Mac is my host and I don't upload anything to godaddy. Updates are made to .Mac. but even after 4 days when trying to go to http://www.eyalphotography.com/ I still get this message: “Safari can’t open the page “http://www.eyalphotography.com/” because it can’t find the server “www.eyalphotography.com”. If I go to http://web.mac.com/enahmias no problems.
I want my page updated to http://www.eyalphotography.com/ that is the whole point of doing the cname and forwarding my domain. People should just go www.eyalphotography.com and done.. not web.mac.com/eyalphotography etc.. it beats the purpose of this thing.
So any solutions why it’s not working?

Here is a step by step on how it finally worked for me.
1. From Iweb choose domain name
2. when logged to .mac click on domain name
3. If you have any troubled name there just remove it.
4. Create a new domain name and follow instructions until it says to go to your domain registrar and continue later
5. Log to godaddy.com
6. Under the Domains menu click on My domain names
7. Click on your domain name that you want to change cname for .mac
8. On the top third of the page in the middle click on Total DNS Control and MX Records
9. On the page that opens in the cnames section click on the Reset to default setting
10. Wait a few minutes, and then refresh the page. Then on the same section under www. click on the pencil icon to edit the cname
11. Leave www. alone and on the next line type: web.mac.com and ok the changes.
12. Log out of godaddy
13. Return to the .mac domain name dialogue box and finish according to the prompts.
14. Go back to iweb and republish ALL to .mac
15. In my case it took only a few hours and after 2 weeks of frustration it worked as magic.
Good luck

Time Machine to another mac does not work

Hi,
I am experiencing a really huge problem with my time machine backup.
Setup:
I want to backup my Macbook onto a external hard drive connected to my Macmini. Both are connected to my Airport extreme. AFP on the Macmini is enabled and I am able to access the drive on the Macbook.
If I mount the backup drive before starting the backup manually I have these errors in my system.log:
Aug 9 13:30:27 danst /System/Library/CoreServices/backupd[237]: Backup requested by user
Aug 9 13:30:27 danst /System/Library/CoreServices/backupd[237]: Starting standard backup
Aug 9 13:30:27 danst /System/Library/CoreServices/backupd[237]: Network mountpoint /Volumes/MacUpa not owned by backupd... remounting

Aug 9 13:30:35 danst /System/Library/CoreServices/backupd[237]: Backup failed with error: 19
If I do not mount the drive first I get the following errors:
Aug 9 13:32:34 danst /System/Library/CoreServices/backupd[237]: Backup requested by user
Aug 9 13:32:34 danst /System/Library/CoreServices/backupd[237]: Starting standard backup

Aug 9 13:32:42 danst /System/Library/CoreServices/backupd[237]: Backup failed with error: 19
I am really unhappy with this it would be great if somebody could help me.

That's great. Now I need to troubleshoot why only the Mac directly connected to my back up drive will work. The other macs will not let me select it...
Does it have to use the GUID partition Map? I have two USB drives connected now and the one I am using for Time Machine is not showing up as a valid drive for TM. THe other drive is though.
What did you end up doing to finally get it to work?

Find via network does not work

Hi..I´m having a big trouble when trying to find images by it´s keywork when they are stored in my company server. Let´s explain
I take some photos or even work with Photoshop, Illustrator or InDesign files. I set different keyword for the files and move it to a central folder in my server, where everyone inside the company has acess.
The problem is: Nobody is able to find that images...In Adobe Bridge (Cs3 or CS4) they go Edit > Find, set the criteria and run the search > not done. The unique person able to find that images by searching via keywork is myself inside my own computer (the one I´ve set files´ keywords)
I´ve tried everithing, check options in find dialog box, triing to centralize a cache folder in server and pointing all the bridges to that folders, purge and export cache to folders, and so on, but I do not know if it´s anything related to cache.
In Resume, nobody is able to find images by any criteria if they are stored inside server (just the people that set keyword is able).
How to solve it?
Thank you a lot
Gustavo.

This question has been asked many times, but no one responds back as how they solved the problem.
Seen this recent link. It sounds like you have tried suggestions at end of post #1, and it did not work.
If you find something that does work please post back to help others.

'Find and replace' does not work in 5.2.2!

When I use 'find' in 5.2.2 it tells me e.g. that there are 9 occurrences of a particular item, but it will not allow me to navigate to them, either by using the return key, or by using the forward and back arrows or by using cmd + G. Has anyone else encountered this problem?

Thank you for your reply. However, it doesn't solve my problem! I have a 42 page document of over 9000 words, including 6 pages of endnotes. If I place the cursor in the main part of the document and search for the text string 'Miguel de Cervantes', Find identifies 9 occurrences (all of which occur in the endnotes), but does not allow me to navigate to them, either using the forward/back arrows, or command + G or shift + command + G. If I place the cursor in the endnotes and search for the same text string Find allows me to navigate to the first occurrence of the text string but not to the remainder. I have experimented by searching for other words, and it seems that, while Find works ok for terms located in the main part of the document it does not allow you to navigate to results if the word or text string is in the Endnotes. This was never an issue in Pages 09. It does seem that there is a bug in the software here.

LATEST DESKTOP MANAGER FOR MAC DOES NOT WORK!!!

I have a Blackberry Bold 9700 and an iMac running 10.6.4 with the latest Blackberry Desktop for Mac (v1.0.4 build 10) that just came out August 2010 and it will NOT allow me to update the handheld software either. It is for a different reason. It says I don't have enough memory on my handheld, but that does not make any sense since I have totally wiped my handheld.
Is RIM every going to figure this software out?? Years in the making and they still can't get a functioning software app for the Mac !
