I can't install any dmg files

I can't install any dmg files and I can't find CoreService nor DiskImageMounter under Library order neither. I think they're missing.
Please Help.

They should come up when you double click on the DMG file.
If you are getting a terminal windows when you double click on a DMG file then something has switched the Default program from Installer.app and or DiskImageMounter.app to terminal.
Right click on the DMG and select Get Info. In the windows that comes up find the Open with section then select DiskImageMounter.app and click Change All.
Both DiskImageMounter.app and Installer.app are in /System/Library/CoreServices. But that folder may be hidden. So you will need to use the Go Menu item "Go to Folder" and type in what I posted above to find it.

Can't open any excel files after installing Snow Leopard

I can't open any excel files after installing Snow Leopard. Is anyone else having this problem?
I have a standard iWork '08 install. Has anyone experienced? And better yet, know of a fix?

Welcome to Apple Discussions
Most users who have had a problem opening Office files with the iWork apps after upgrading to Snow Leopard have the problem fixed by updating to the latest versions. For iWork '08 that is Pages 3.0.3 & Numbers 1.0.3. For iWork '09 it's Pages 4.0.2 & Numbers 2.0.2. I don't use Keynote, but it should also be updated. If you're not running the latest versions & Software Update says your software is up to date, make sure the applications are where the installer initially put them. The updaters are very picky. If the location is not where the updater is programmed to look or if the folder doesn't have the name the updater looks for, it will not work. The applications cannot be renamed or moved. They must be in the iWork '08 or iWork '09 folder in Applications. That iWork folder must be named iWork '08 or iWork '09. If it doesn't have the '08 or '09 Software Update won't find them & the updaters won't work.

Can sombody please explain .DMG files to me?

Hi I have got varios .DMG icons on my desktop which relate to various programmes such as google earth, Messenger, Security and OSX updates from ages ago Etc.
Whats the deal with these? Can they be Deleted or will that remover the programme/update(i'm trying to keep my desktop clean and tidy!)
I'm also trying to prepare my mac for a tiget upgrade (from 10.3.9) and want to make sure there is as little chance of it gpoing wrong as possible.
I run mac janitor each week and i'll do a disc repair before and after the install. I'll also be burning all of my important files (pictures and i tunes library) to DVD'S. Just in case. Anything else i should be aware of?

'If' you install Google Earth on your machine, then it is indeed installed as a program. But you must install it. Merely downloading it, or any other program, to your desktop, whether as a disk image, or in some other format, is not the same as installing it.
Once a program is installed, you can indeed remove the .dmg file from your desktop exactly as 'roam' recommends.
As far as updating with the 10.3.9 combo, you must install it ie run the update. Just putting it in your applications folder will not do the trick. I would take it out of the applications folder, put it on the desktop, run it from there by following the instructions and then dump the .dmg file once the update is installed.
You should quit all applications before installing the update and will almost certainly have to restart your Mac once the update is complete. Some people also repair disk permissions using Disk Utility after installing new software.
Good luck.

Can't find any raw files to convert when I am using Adobe DNG converter

Recently I purchased a new Olympus XZ-1 camera. I shoot exclusively RAW pictures (raw files for this camera are called .orf). Then when I tried to import these .orf files in the organizer of Phtoshop Element 8 it was imposible, nor then I could see those pictures in the organizer. By surfing on diffrent forums, I was able to figure out that Camera Raw included in Element 8, Camera Raw 5.5, is not supporting the .orf raw from Olympus and if I didn’t want to upgrade my Element 8 to Element 9 or 10, a simple alternative was to download Adobe DNG converter to convert all my .orf files into dng files, which could then imported by Element 8 and opened in Camera raw 5.5.
I downloaded DNG converter version 6.6 and installed it in on my computer running on Windows 7. The problem is that once inside DNG converter, when selecting the folder where all my .orf files are (Select folder), I can't see any raw files to convert there! I tried to select a folder with NEF files instead (raw files from Nikon) and it is the same problem! Why can’t I see those files of mine I want to convert when I select the folder in DNG converter?
I'm dying for help!
Thanks a lot!

When you are selecting the folder in the DNG converter, you only click on the folder. You DON'T double click on the folder. After you have set your options, and chosen the folder, you click on the Convert button. It is only after you have clicked on Convert that you will see the list of files that are being converted. You will also be able to see an indicator of the progress of the conversion. It really does work. Just to verify, the procedure I outlined is one that I did just prior to trying to write the instructions. It really isn't rocket science. Just choose the folder, only the folder, and click on the Convert button.
You'll notice that the button prompts you to select the folder, it doesn't say anything about selecting a file. You only select the folder that contains the files. You will never see a list of files using this method. If you only want to convert one or two images you can use the other method. Leave the DNG converter closed, open the folder containing the DNG files in your operating system folder browsing utility, choose the file you want to convert, and drag it onto the icon for the DNG converter. That is how you choose individual images.

Unable to install "InstallESD.dmg" file from OS X Mounstain Lion?

Hi,
Unable to install "InstallESD.dmg" file from OS X Mounstain Lion, i've downloaded OS X Mavericks and installed on other machine. However, i took backup of "Show Package Contents" before installing.When i try to install ""InstallESD.dmg" file some other Mac machine. When i double click on it its open Packages folder instead of installer.
Please suggest me, how can i install OS X Mavericks for My Mac machines.
Thanks in Advance,
Suresh Balakrishnan.

Unfortunately with OS X Mavericks you can't use the InstallESD.dmg file as an installer. You have to use either DiskMaker X 3.0.4 or Mavericks Bootable Disk Creation Tool or do an Internet search for the Terminal command that can be used to create a bootable Mavericks installer on an external drive (e,g, USB thumb drive).
You will need the Install OS X Mavericks.app from the Mac App Store to use with all of the above solutions.

Can't install any add-on if FF4.0.1

I have 2 versions of FF, latest 14.x and also 4.0.1 which I want to keep. I start both with different profiles using
path_to_firefox.exe -P profile_name -no-remote
With 14.x I have no problems, but can't install any add-on in 4.0.1 - I tried installing from web or from a .xpi file - in both cases the download progress bar fills to 100% and then stays there forever, without proceeding further.
Is there a way to manually install an add-on? By this I don't mean from .xpi file, but really manually - if I extract .xpi contents, where should I place the files, and which other files I have to modify to have an add-on working?
OS is XP sp3 pro 32-bit US-English
Thanks

Can't import any .psd files into after effects.

Hello all.
I was using CS5 master collection without issue, for a year.
Decided to upgrade to the CS6 master collection and that’s when the problems began.
For example, I can’t import any .psd files into AE.
All files are saved in RGB mode.
The previous files were made on CS5.
I made a new .psd file in CS6 with just a couple of layers on it, couldn’t import that either.
I’ve tried Ctrl-alt-shift to delete preferences, that had limited success. I can import a file and do a little bit of work on it but as soon as I close the file down and opened it up again, it does not recognise the .psd file.
The errors I’m getting in AE are many
For example:
After Effects warning: Reading past end of file
After Effects error: Could not open intro.psd because it is not a valid Photoshop document
After Effects error: Crash in progress. Last logged message:<8104><dynamiclink><5>C:\ProgramFiles\Adobe\Adobe Premiere Pro CS6\Adobe Premiere Pro exe
After Effects error: Not enough memory to initialise PSL
I have un-installed and re-installed many times.
I’m using Windows 8, with 32ram. Hard drives C: 100mg, D: 2 Tb
I’ve tried installing on both drives, still the same thing happens.
Does anyone out there in Adobe Land have any ideas?
Totally confused
Cheers,
Gary.

Hi Arie,
Thanks for your response.
It actually happens with every .psd file regardless of size or specs.
All the other programs in the CS6 master collection work fine, except for AE and PS.
I tried the small file. Created a small file, 100 px by 100px 72dpi, just with a gradient background. Same thing, not enough memory to initialise PSL.
I got the adobe cleaner, and re-installed on my system (again) .... same thing.
As long as I open AE with doing ctrl-alt-shift every single time or export layers from PS individually I seem to be OK.
The problem is far from solved, so I guess i just have to put up with workarounds.
Thanks for taking the time to respond

I can't install any add-ons in muse

I can't install any add-ons in muse or download the .mulib file to install it manually. Please, help. Also, it's pointless to download the .zxp file since Adobe Extension Manager does not support Muse. Any advice?

Create a new profile as a test to check if your current profile is causing the problems.
See:
* [https://support.mozilla.com/kb/Basic+Troubleshooting#w_8-make-a-new-profile Basic Troubleshooting: Make a new profile]
If that new profile works then you can transfer some files from the old profile to that new profile (be careful not to copy corrupted files)
