I just installed Illustrator CC for the first time (Windows 8) and it crashed at launch every time

I just recently installed Illustrator on an Windows 8 machine and when I try to launch it 32 or 64bit it crashes right after the splash screen.

Your info is too vague. you have to provide detailed system info and otehr details liek the crash logs. On a hunch you may need to look at this:

Problem running Illustrator CS6 for the first time

Hi!
I just installed Illustrator CS6 from the Creative Cloud and the following message appears as I try to start the program "Unable to set maximum number of files to be opened" and then it closes again.
Can somebody help me?
Many thanks!

This was a known bug for some users in 16.0.0. It seems to have gotten fixed in the latest update (16.1.0) that was released end August. Run the update (look under Help > Updates) and hopefully this issue should get resolved.

I am new to this forum. Just installed adobe iplayer for the numerous time. Then decided to have a software update immediately on my mac computer. Then a a small screen appeared afterwards stating the maleware virus was removed. What do I do now?

Just installed adobe iplayer for the umpteeth time.
Then decided to have a software update immediately on my mac.
Then a small screen appeared afterwards stating maleware virus removed.
What do I do now? Was not aware that I had a virus in the first place.

That latest update is a removal tool for the Flashback trojan.
One of the ways the earlier versions of that trojan were distributed was through fake Adobe Flash downloaders.
Why are you repeatedly installing Adobe Flash Player? (not iPlayer - that's a BBC thing.)
The only place from which to get the Flash Player plug-in is directly from Adobe themselves - Never Trust a Pop Up that says you have a missing plugin!
Also be aware that the Flash Player is not a standalone player; it's a plug-in which installs in the Library and is available for all the browsers to use.
As for what you do now?
Nothing for the moment - you should be clear.
But to be on the safe side, go to the Prefences for each of your browsers and disable Java (not JavaScript - that's a whole different animal). As Java is the vector used by the most recent versions, that should ensure you don't get reinfected.

Installing GroupWise 2012 for the first time

Hello,
I am looking for some help on installing GroupWise 2012 for the first time, and onto a brand new Windows 2008 Server. I have looked at some of the documentation for this, but I do not fully understand what I need to do. For example, I need to have eDirectory installed so I installed eDirectory on the Windows sever. I don't know what settings I need to use for eDirectory or if I even need a Netware server, too. I would appreciate it if someone could walk me through this step by step and provide me with values for a basic system I would appreciate it. My first goal is to learn how to install GroupWise 2012 on a Windows 2008 server. Once I understand this, then I can redo it and go from there.
Thank you for your help.
John

Hi John,
Let me see if I can be of some sort of assistance.... you don't need a NetWare server - besides they are obsolete.
I created the following set of instructions for somebody doing a first time install on Linux - perhaps just read around it and see if it works for you in a windows environment:
"on the server run the GroupWise install: ./install from the directory where you have the software
select "Create or Update a GroupWise System"
accept the license agreement
create the software distribution directory (default should be fine)
From the Select Software dialog select the Select All button
when the copying is complet select Creating a new GroupWise System
to start ConsoleOne select Run
when prompted with the Linux Mount Directory select OK
when prompted, take note of the steps yout ake to create a new system, then select OK
login to consoleone with your admin credentials
in the left pane select GroupWise System the select Tools | GroupWise Utilities | New System
select next
confirm that your tree is correct
select Extend eDirectory Schema check box and then select next
When prompted for a system name enter something simple like GWise
When prompted for a primary domain name enter a domain like gwdom1 (I'm keeping it generic in this scenario)
when prompted for a domain directory enter a path ie /opt/novell/groupwise/dbs/gwdom1
select next
Next to the domain context fields select the browse icon
browse to and select the container that will hold the domain (you might want to create an organisational unit called groupwise in your tree for this purpose)
next slect your language and time zone
when prompted for a post office name enter a poa name like gwpoa1 (again, generic in this example)
when prompted for a post office directory enter a path eg /opt/novell/groupwise/dbs/gwpoa1
the context for the post office is assumed to be the same as the domain
select the language and time zone for the post office
in the post office link dialog confirm that tcp/ip is selected
enter your ip address of your server
leave the ports at default - don't mess with these unless you know what you are doing!
in the IP address of the MTA (that would be your domain) enter the IP of your server
leave the ports at default
browse and add existing edirectory users to your GroupWise system
to create the GroupWise system select next
view the installation summary then select next
the final step is to install the agent software - select next
from the GroupWise agents configuration dialog select next
confirm that the check box for Launch GroupWise AGents on system startup is selected then select exit
exit the GroupWise installation program
from the terminal winodws enter rcgrpwise start to load the groupwise agents"
Good luck
Cheers,

I just statred Flash CC for the first time and it seems that the text within the pop-up window (dialog box) is mis-aligned and not allowing me access to the command buttons, nor all the text. (ie: the NEW Template Box, can't see but 2/3 of the content)

the GUI is so hard to read (so small) I enlarge my Ps UI by the instructions below...which helped a lot.

HT204053 If I have an apple ID for myself and my wife has just got a iPhone for the first time how can she get the same apps as I have for my iPhone and iPad

If I have an apple ID for myself and my wife has just got a iPhone for the first time how can she get the same apps as I have for my iPhone and iPad by getting it off my iCloud?

She can't from iCloud without setting up your iCloud account on her phone. But just sync the same apps from your iTunes Library on your computer to her phone.
Your wife should setup her own iCloud account - which is separate to the iTunes Store accounts.

I just tried to sync for the first time and i receieved an error message saying, "Itunes could not backup because backup could not be saved on the compute"??

i just tried to sync for the first time (iohone to PC) and i receieved an error message saying " it iTunes could not backup because backup could not be saved to the computer"

just as i've posted the same issue here hope that someone could give us a hand. I have just swtched from nokia to iPhone for my company cell and i have more than 1000 contacts... it would be murder to create those contacts one by one )))))

I am trying to install my ipad for the first time. How do I know what password to use for my server?

Only you or the person responsible for the server knows.
What do you mean by server?

HT4461 Hello I have just installed my license for OS v 10.6.3 and installed the upgrades on a new hard drive. I would like to upgrade to my license for Lion. How do I do this (through the Apple Store I guess). Cheers

Hello, I have just installed my license for Mac OS v 10.6.3 and installed updates including security updates.
I have a licence for Lion that is sitting on Apples computer somewhere.
How do I access my account and install Lion on my machine?
Beyond that I want to upgrade to Maverick but given I work out the first step upgrading to Maverick should be easy.
Thanks, Julian R A

Welcome to Apple Support Communities
OS X Lion could be purchased from the Mac App Store (and now, at the Apple Online Store). Once you purchase it, you can download it as many times as you want for free.
Open  > Software Update, and install the most recent Mac OS X version. It should be Mac OS X 10.6.6 or newer. Then, open the Mac App Store, go to Purchases, log in with your Apple ID and download OS X Lion. Make a backup before upgrading and check that your apps are compatible > http://www.roaringapps.com
You can upgrade to OS X Mavericks from Mac OS X 10.6.6 or newer without any problem, so upgrading to OS X Lion first is a waste of time. Open the Mac App Store and download OS X Mavericks

I just used itunes for the first time to sync my iphone 3GS!!! Now, half of my apps will not work! Any suggestions? I touch on the app and it flashes real fast then back to my home screen... HELP PLEASE!!!!

Try to reset the phone by holding the sleep and home button for at least 10 sec, until the Apple logo comes back.

Just used my FaceTime for the first time, and my audio kept cutting in and out.? Why is it doing that? Or what's causing it? HELP!

I tried facetiming for the first time and my audio kept cutting in and out.. WHY!? It was so annoying. Does anyone know what might be the problem? Connection? Thanks!

Do you have a Corp. Exchange account on your phone? I ask, because the requirement to encrypt an iPhone backup can be enforced by a profile installed on your phone when setting up the Exchange account.

Yes, I did visit you guys in Israel a couple of months ago. I hope all of you are doing well.
Is there another computer on your network that has more or less the same configuration as yours? Same databases, etc. Does your computer have the same network settings as the others where it is working?
