I began the download/install for 10.7.2 and it appears to have frozen my macbook pro. Should I force a reboot?
It just says moving items into place. It has been spinning for some time at about 70%. Wondering if I shuold force a shutdown and restart.
First things first, did you backed up your data?
I would let it stay for the night to see what happens, if by tomorrow the computer is still stuck at 70% I would suggest calling Apple to see what would be the appropiate steps to troubleshoot the issue. Their number is 1-800-MY-APPLE.
Good Luck!
BTW, what is your MacBook Pro model? 2011, 2010, or 2009?

Where is the download link for premiere elements 10 and previous versions?
Where is the download link for premiere elements 10 and previous versions?
Also the search program doesn't find previous version downloads.
Chat is completely busy and won't let me in.
And I am not paying $39 for what is an Adobe issue.
FAIL!
Anyone know where I might find it?A.T. Romano wrote:
ProDesignTools offers these downloads for the Adobe tryouts of older Photoshop Elements and Premiere Elements versions
What I've always found strange though is that the downloads themselves come from Adobe's servers. Just seems weird that Adobe themselves won't provide the links!

What is the best way to safeguard my files and pictures before I send off my MacBook Pro to get fixed? I am running Mavericks and use an AirPort Time Machine to back-up all my files.
Back up all data on the internal drive(s) before you hand over your computer to anyone. You need at least two independent backups to be completely safe. There are ways to back up a computer that isn't fully functional—ask if you need guidance.
If privacy is a concern, erase the data partition(s) with the option to write zeros* (do this only if you know how to restore to an empty drive.) Don’t erase the recovery partition, if present.
Keeping your confidential data secure during hardware repair
Apple also recommends that you deauthorize a device in the iTunes Store before having it serviced.
*An SSD doesn't need to be zeroed. -
Why is the download speed for Creative Cloud updates and initial software installation so slow?
Why is the download process for Adobe Creative Cloud updates and initial installations so slow? I can download and update other software from other providers almost an order of magnitude faster. This slow download problem has been present since I started using Creative Cloud soon after it was initially offered.
Adobe customer support maintains that there is no throttling at Adobe's end, and that no one has complained about this problem -- this forum shows the latter not to be true.
What is the problem?Hi ErstwhileCreative,
I don't think I've ever checked the download speed but the installers are definitely large files, many several GB. It might seem longer because the download immediately progresses into the installation at 50%

I checked its been uninstalled from my mac and then every time I reinstall it, it just perpetually sits on that page that says 'inDesign is downloading now'... but it never does. Need urgent help please! Photoshop and illustrator remained on my mac no issue there. Whats going on?...
Musecatherine please begin the installation process in the Creative Cloud Desktop application. You can find details on how to install the Adobe Creative applications, included with your membership, at Install and update apps - https://helpx.adobe.com/creative-cloud/help/install-apps.html.
It is likely that the AAM Detect Plug-in is not installed or blocked by your current web browser. This is why no action occurs when you are on the download page. -
It looks like the Brother MFC-3360 can only print/fax with a MacBook Pro which stinks that it cannot scan ( a function on the MFC that worked on my Dell laptop). Do i need to get another MFC that works with apple?! who faxes anymore? i need to scan and email the documents, not print and fax. this is a very unpleasant surprise.
Brother have released compatible Lion drivers and utilities for your MFC-3360.
They are here, download and install them, -
I have what looked like a small bug that ran up and down the screen and then sudenly stopped in center upper half of screen and now appears to be burned in to the inside of the screen, anyone had this probelm before and what can be done about it?
Thanks for the suggestion, the next step was to call Apple, who gave me a claim number, which I discovered you must have to get anything done with them. They refered me to a Apple store or repair center, after some reseach took it to the Computer Store in Mobile, Alabama and they were excellent. They took pictures of the screen with bug submitted it to Apple who denied the claim but they kept kicking it up to the next level and finally Apple agreed to sent new cover. The Computer Store had the cover the next day, they changed it out and now I am bug free. If your in the area of Mobile Alabama you can feel good about getting help from the Computer Store. For the two folks that responded to my note, Thank You, good comments and good advice.

Having trouble when I launch iTunes (version 11.0.2) on my Dell Laptop running Windows 7 Professional (service pack 1). I get an error message indicating software required to communicate with iPod and mobile phones was not installed correctly. Do you want iTunes to try to repair this for you? I normally respond with OK and it immediately tells me "could not be repaired. Please reinstall iTunes..." I have done this a number of times to no avail.
I also notice Quicktime is not getting installed at all.
That one is normal nowadays (ever since the iTunes versions 10.5.x).
The software required for communicating with iPods and mobile phones was not installed correctly. Do you want iTunes to try to repair this for you?
Let's try a standalone Apple Mobile Device Support install. It still might not install, but fingers crossed any error messages will give us a better idea of the underlying cause of why it's not installing under normal conditions.
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 AppleMobileDeviceSupport.msi (or AppleMobileDeviceSupport64.msi) to do a standalone AMDS install.
(If it offers you the choice to remove or repair, choose "Remove", and if the uninstall goes through successfully, see if you can reinstall by doubleclicking the AppleMobileDeviceSupport.msi again.)
Does it install (or uninstall and then reinstall) properly for you?
If instead you get an error message during the install (or uninstall), let us know what it says. (Precise text, please.) -

i am unable to download updates for my iphone 4 using my pc. i have turned off firewall and spam however the downloadkeeps stopping about halfway through saying i have been disconnected from the network and to check my settings. very frustrating! help!
Hi Jen. My daughter just compleated her nursing program and is now working as a full time nurse. Focus and study hard and soon you will be there too. Now to the problem at hand. I have the same problem. I gave up on it and satisfied myself with my iPod without the upgrade. Reason being I've read so many posts of people having problems after the upgrade. But I'm sure other factors are involved. Nevertheless here is the fix most say works to solve the problem: What ever virus protection you have installed on your computer, disable it. Then try to install the update. After that enable the protection. I had Kaspersky, and it does it's job well. The thinking is, the virus protection is blocking the upgrade. Hope this works. Charlie

Where is the download link for SCEP Client Offline installer for x86 & x64 latest greatest version (4.6.305 as of today)?
The answer IS NOT IT AND NEVER WILL BE "DOES NOT EXIST"!!!!!! MUST NEVER NEED TO RUN UPDATES TO GET IT!!!!!!!!! THE ONLY ACCEPTABLE ANSWER IS THE LINK!!!!! DUH GET YOUR ACT IN GEAR MS!!!!!!!!!!
RalphThanks to all for the information. I work in higher ed. We have SCCM latest version, fully licensed. Unfortunately the individual who manages the SC does not have a clue as to where to find the SCEP installer. I sent him links from MS that shows him where
it is supposed to be. The version he say's is on our SC Management server is 4.3. I, in the past, was able to get 4.5 independent of him and it has been working well for me but it is time to use the latest greatest version instead. I should just as easily
be able to get 4.6. As far as licensing goes, if the product was correctly designed it should just work itself out just like it does for the 4.5 version I was able to easily find and download.
As for the link given by KevinMJohnston, thanks by the way, its the closest I have come to getting what I need but all I get is a spinning wheel in Firefox, the only browser one should ever need. In IE I get prompted for an email address, which it should
NEVER EVER DO!!!!!!!!!! I did give them my address, but alas, after waiting over 30 mins. I still don't have a link to the update or the CU4 Config MGR update mentioned. (Another reason I am not very nice to MS, along with, see below...) Please send me the
link that they are suppose to send me in the email.
As for the intensity of the request it comes from not being able to find the update on my own. (Amongst a million other complaints as MS makes my job harder and harder, just think of all the lost productivity and extra repair efforts needed because MS stopped
allowing you to do upgrade/repair installs from the install discs. You have to have a working OS to do it, or you will lose your settings etc and will have to re-install all of your software etc. How STUPID IS THAT! Can't use it to fix a blown driver or BSOD
problem like you could in XP. There is no excuse for that, I know better. So you can see why I have nothing good to say about MS etc etc.) There is no excuse for that! If the MS updater has it available then IT MUST BE MADE AVAILABLE FOR STANDALONE DOWNLOAD
PERIOD. That goes for ALL updates PERIOD. I use these updates and many others etc so that once I seal an image for a PC it has the latest greatest version of everything. It is quicker to get it stand alone in advance and installing than waiting for MS
updates to do so. Also I prefer to config my images so that the Av installs after first boot. These are cloned PCs. Many of these PC are used in labs and are frozen. Here, the settings for the SCEP AV being pushed from above can cause major problems for the
users i.e. the scheduled scan feature. If it is on when students are taking tests and they take more than 5 or 10 mins on question MS is stupid enough to start scanning causing the system to become unresponsive. This has caused students to breakdown in tears
thinking the system is hosed and they just lost their tests. I have to do some creative reg hack, setting owner as "Guest", a disabled account, etc. to keep these settings from being changed. (Our SC managers push policies that work for the faculty
but break the lab systems which are frozen, so I have to out hack them, should not be, but it is, we are trying to get that fixed, but bureaucracy and people afraid to share power etc makes it hard.) These settings unfortunately will prevent the AV from
installing so I need to be able to manually do it after I have set the reg to allow it. And I could go on. Who knows when or why someone may need to do a manual update of something. I just had 3 systems fail 12 updates, yet when I manually downloaded
them and installed them they ALL installed without failure. I did NOTHING in between the auto update and the manual, yet it was the manual way that worked. Maybe if MS could fix those kind of issues then no one would need to get stand alone update files.)
That is not for MS to worry about. It is, however, their responsibility to make it so that I can choose what will work best for my environment, which only I could know. DUH. I have had issues in the past with MS AV and other brands being installed before "sealing"
the images. etc. etc. etc.
As you can see, there is not enough space on the world wide web to list all thousands of legitimate reasons to give Microsoft a hard time so I will do so on a case by case bases knowing I am probably spitting in to the wind, but hey somebody has to have
the guts to do it. MS MUST NEVER BE ALLOWED TO SIMPLY GET AWAY WITH IT! They Must be called to the proverbial carpet.
Maybe if people who are MVPs would not be afraid to join the choruses they would be embarrassed, (though it should be done out of moral obligation not embarrassment), enough to fix these obviously fixable problems etc. etc. etc. I have over 30 years in the
IT business, the IBM XT did not exist until my senior year in college. You are not going to be able to convince me that there is a legitimate reason, copy protection IS NOT IT, to prevent me from fixing blown OS via re-install using install disc when OS will
not boot. Nor are you going to be able to find legitimate reason for the SCEP 4.6.305 update to be so hard to get.
Thanks again for the help, still waiting for email from MS, NOT COOL MS! NO EXCUSE!!!!!

I have Creative Cloud and just downloaded Ae... but it is version CS6... not CC2014.1 . Any idea why the download is for an older version?
If there are problems with updating or with the permissions then easiest is to download the full version and trash the currently installed version to do a clean install of the new version.
Download a new copy of the Firefox program and save the disk image (dmg) file to the desktop
* Firefox 7.0.x: http://www.mozilla.com/en-US/firefox/all.html
* Trash the current Firefox application to do a clean (re-)install
* Install the new version that you have downloaded
Your profile data is stored elsewhere in the Firefox Profile Folder, so you won't lose your bookmarks and other personal data if you uninstall and (re)install Firefox.

The software required for communicating with ipod and mobile phones was not installed correctly
ok i've seen this in several threads and haven't found one with an anwser. the software required for communicating with ipod and mobile phones was not installed correctly. of course when you tell it to repair it does not. this has happened several times now and only cure i have found is uninstalling itunes and reinstalling. works for maybe a few weeks then does the same thing and i start all over again with uninstall and reinstall. i tunes version 10.4.1.10 64 bit running on windows 7 64 bit and trying to sync with Iphone 3gs - so anyone have a fix for this or am i stuck reinstalling itunes every few weeks???
"The feature you are trying to use is on a network resource that is unavailable. Click OK to try again, or enter an alternative path to a folder containing the installation package "iTunes64msi"

Where is the download link for TCS5?
How do I download TCS5? I cannot find the download link for TCS5 even though I've paid for it.
I know this sounds like a dumb question ("How do I download...?") but I tried every possible online alternative for subscription downloading the TCS5 for almost 24 hours without success. The subscription download link does not exist anywhere on the Adobe site, despite impressions to the contrary. At the end a kind and patient soul from Customer Service (Anvinder, thank you!) sent me two separate links for two different set-up packages (a .7z package and an .exe package), I saved them on my desktop and then clicked the .EXE file and installed the suite. Actually it turns out the reason I could not download the Suite was because I was clicking on the obvious DOWNLOAD button hehhehhe!. The customer rep specifically told me NOT to click the download button and instead directly go to the URLs that he kindly provided! It was an adventure but at the end I am happy that I could download it since I love TCS. I have no idea why Adobe makes it this hard to download TCS. I wish someone looked into this aggravating problem and the whole download interface. Please test your interface because it is well-designed, looks good, and it "looks" as though it should be working etc. but actually it does not.
