I moved Creative Suite 5 to a new computer, deactivated on the old, activated on the new, but only Illustrator and Photoshop will open. The rest of the suite will not open. How do I fix this?

I moved Creative Suite 5 from my old MacBook Pro to my new MacBook Air and followed the instructions for deactivating on the old and activating on the new but only Photoshop and Illustrator will work. I need to also access InDesign, Acrobat, Dreamweaver and Fireworks. Is there a way to fix this? Problem with the MacBook Air is that is doesn't have a disc drive so I had to transfer via external hard drive.
Cheers.

The problem is that you need to install CS5 from an installation file or installation disc. You can't just copy files because there are lots of supplementary files that don't get put in the right location.
You'll need to use the Adobe Cleaner to remove all the stuff on your new computer:
Use the CC Cleaner Tool to solve installation problems | CC, CS3-CS6
Then download an installer for CS5:

  • I have updated my apple ID but now my Icloud ID will not update, how do I fix this?

    Last night I updated my apple ID because I was tired of bouncing between emails, so I updated my apple id and I see that my Icloud Id has not been updated and I am not sure how to do this. Any help will be appreciated.

    Welcome to the Apple community.
    This feature has been introduced to make stolen phones useless to those that have stolen them.
    However it can also arise when the user has changed their Apple ID details with Apple and not made the same changes to their iCloud account/Find My Phone on their device before upgrading to iOS 7, or if you restore from a previous back up made before you changed your details.
    The only solution is to change your Apple ID back to its previous state with Apple at My Apple ID using your current password, you don’t need access to this address if it’s previously been used with your Apple ID, once you have saved these details enter the password as requested on your device and then turn off "find my phone" and delete the account from your device.
    You should then change your Apple ID back to its current state, save it once again and then log back in using your current Apple ID. Finally, turn "find my phone" back on once again.

  • I have an iPod Touch 4 and former apps I had on there are now gone and new apps that I've purchased will not load.How do I fix this?

    Do I have to get a new iPod to fix the updates of these apps?

    Hi there Skatermom14,
    You may want to try force closing all open apps and resetting the device as an initial troubleshooting step. Take a look at the articles below for more information.

  • I just upgraded to mountain lion osx and now my applications are crossed out and out of date. they will not run. how do i fix this?

    I just upgraded to mountain lion osx and now my applications are crossed out and out of date. they will not run. how do i fix this?

    Here is a recent post I assembled for a similar question:
    Unfortunately you got caught up in the minor miracle of Rosetta.  Originally licensed by Apple when it migrated from the PowerPC CPU platform that it had used from the mid-1990's until the Intel CPU platform in 2006, Rosetta allowed Mac users to continue to use their library of PPC software transparently in emulation.
    However, Apple's license to continue to use this technology expired with new releases of OS X commencing with Lion (and now Mountain Lion).  While educational efforts have been made over the last 6 years, the fact is that Rosetta was SO successful that many users were caught unaware UNTIL they upgraded to Lion or Mountain Lion.
    Workarounds:
    1. If your Mac will support it, restore OS X Snow Leopard;
    2.  If your Mac will support it, partition your hard drive or add an external hard drive and install Snow Leopard into it and use the "dual-boot" method to choose between your PowerPC software or Lion/Mt. Lion;
    3.  Upgrade your software to Intel compatible versions if they are available, or find alternative software that will open, modify and save your data files;
    3.  Install Snow Leopard (with Rosetta) into Parallels:

  • Slideshow will not export how do i fix this?

    in iphotoslideshow will not export how do i fix this?

    Back in your own account try this:
    Apply the two fixes below in order as needed:
    Fix #1
    Launch iPhoto with the Command+Option keys held down and rebuild the library.
    Select the options identified in the screenshot. 
    Fix #2
    Using iPhoto Library Manager  to Rebuild Your iPhoto Library
    Download IPhoto Library Manager 4 for OS XC 10.6.8 and iPhoto  8.1.2 and later  or iPhoto Library Manager 3 (for OS X 10.5.8 and iPhoto 7.1.5 and earlier) and launch.
    Click on the Add Library button, navigate to your Home/Pictures folder and select your iPhoto Library folder.
    Now that the library is listed in the left hand pane of iPLM, click on your library and go to the File ➙ Rebuild Library menu (iPLM 3) or Library ➙ Rebuild Library menu (iPLM 4) option.
    In the next  window name the new library and select the location you want it to be placed.
    Click on the Create button.
    Note 1: This creates a new library based on the LIbraryData.xml file in the library and will recover Events, Albums, keywords, titles and comments but not books, calendars or slideshows. The original library will be left untouched for further attempts at fixing the problem or in case the rebuilt library is not satisfactory.
    NOTE 2: In Lion and Mountain Lion the Home/Library folder is now invisible. To make it permanently visible enter the following in the Terminal application window: chflags nohidden ~/Library and press the Return key - 10.7: Un-hide the User Library folder.

  • I updated to java 7 and now my yahoo games will not work, how do i fix this?

    i updated to java 7 and now my yahoo games will not work, how do I fix this?

    kathieaross,
    click on the Java pane in System Preferences. When the Java Control Panel window opens, click on the Security tab, and set your Security Level to Medium — that will allow “untrusted” applications (i.e. those without certificates from a trusted authority) to run. Press the Apply button in the lower-right corner to confirm the change, then press the OK button to close the window.
    Apparently your Yahoo! card games don’t have certificates associated with them, which is why the default security setting of Java SE 7 Update 51 didn’t allow them to run.

  • Speaker on phone calls will not work, how can I fix this? I have already done system restart and reset to manufature default.

    speaker on phone calls will not work, how can I fix this? I have already done system restart and reset to manufature default. I also have no voice with Safari or any other apps including music!

    If your speaker is broken, then you may need to get a repair done.
    Are you unable to hear anything at all, or is it just one speaker in particular?
    If it is just one speaker, where's it located?

    I can call my ipad with my iphone alll the time.  That's how I check up on my kids at home when I"m at work. You just set up to your iphone's facetime setting with your phone number and set up your ipad's facetime settings with your apple id (in this case it's your email)

  • TS3092 my wireless apple mouse works to move the arrow but will not scroll. how can I fix this?

    my wireless mouse moves the pointer but does not scroll, how can I fix this?

    Check the setting in System Preferences > Universal Access > Mouse & Trackpad tab > mouse options.. button > check scrolling.
    If you have an older mouse with the trackball, it might just need cleaning.  Turn the mouse over and rub the trackball vigorously on paper or microfiber cloth.

  • I was forced to update windows and restart my computer, now my video player will not play how do i fix this?

    on my cable provider website I often watch tv series. I was doing so as normal today and then had to leave the computer to go do something else. When I came back the computer had gone to sleep so I started back up and hit resume play and the video crashed after a few seconds. This has happened before so I restarted the video which as always worked. Didnt work this time so I tried to restart the computer. The restart ran some windows updates and now I am unable to play the same videos I was playing earlier today. The video just keeps saying it is loading or buffering. How do I fix this?

    You did not say what programs you are using or how. Go to the web sites
    of the '''true owners''' of the video programs and get the full installer.
    Do the same for Firefox at '''''Mozilla.com'''''.

  • I can't open my work web site it lets me go right to the login page and won't open how can I fix this

    I can't open my work web site it let's me go to the login page then it won't go any further how do I fix this

    To see whether this problem is caused by the new HTML5 parser feature in Firefox 4, you can turn it off like this:
    (1) In a new tab, type or paste '''about:config''' in the address bar and press Enter. Click the button promising to be careful.
    (2) In the filter box, type or paste '''html5''' and pause while the list is filtered
    (3) Double-click '''html5.parser.enable''' to toggle it to false (it will turn bold).
    Then return to your work site and reload the page.
    Does that make any difference? If so, you can leave it that way. If not, you might as well switch it back (double-click that preference again to toggle it back to true.)
    If not, and you need to roll back, here's the process:
    First, I recommend backing up your Firefox settings in case something goes wrong. See [https://support.mozilla.com/en-US/kb/Backing+up+your+information Backing up your information]. (You can copy your entire Firefox profile folder somewhere outside of the Mozilla folder.)
    Next, download and save Firefox 3.6 to your desktop for future installation. http://www.mozilla.com/firefox/all-older
    Close Firefox 4.
    You could install Firefox 3.6 over it (many have reported success) or you could uninstall Firefox first. If you uninstall, do not remove your personal data and settings, just the program.
    Unless you have installed an incompatible add-on, Firefox 3.6 should pick up where you left off. If there are serious issues, please post back with details.
    Note: I haven't actually tried this myself!
