I purchased and installed Aperture 3 but it is not on my Macbook Pro

Yesterday morning I purchased and instalaled Aperture 3.   I went through the process and answered questions like "Do you want to migrate your Iphoto library, etc., etc.  This morning when I opened my computer I could not find Aperture.  It was not in Applications...nor in Finder (Searching 'All my files."   I recieved an email confirming the 79.00 purchase.     I went back to the Mac App Store and tried to reinstalled but it is not an option - it just has a faded 'Installed' indicator.  Help!

I went back to the Mac App Store and tried to reinstalled but it is not an option - it just has a faded 'Installed' indicator
Allen is probably right, and calling Apple the solution, but this is puzzling - if the AppStore shows your Aperture version as installed, then the Application probably still is somewhere on your Mac. If it were gone completely, the AppStore should offer Aperture for downloading again.
Have you tried to open Aperture by double-clicking your Aperture Library? The Aperture Library probably is located in the default location in your "Pictures" folder.
Since your Spotlight search was not successful, have you tried to search your Mac for all Applications using the Finder's find, searching your whole computer?
Select your Computer in the Finder's sidebar and enter ⌘(cmd)-F
Set the "Kind" selector to "is Application"
This will list any Application currently on your computer.

P.S. You didn't mention it, since it is the obvious place to look first - but have you looked in the Trash?

  • I have downloaded, extracted and installed Elements 12 but it will not open nor can I find the Adobe file in the file where I installed it to..  When I've tried to download and install again

    I have downloaded, extracted and installed Elements 12 but it will not open nor can I find the Adobe file in the file where I installed it to..  When I've tried to download and install again it says that the "Object Already Exists."  It may exists, but it is not visible in the file or in my list of programs on the Startup Menu.

    You should not have to uninstall Premiere Elements 12/12.1 in order to install and run Premiere Elements 13 on the same computer unless your computer is overloaded and the computer resources are compromised. Just use one program at a time.
    Can you still use 12/12.1 on this same computer that will not let you use 13?
    What specific Window operating system are you using?
    Let us go through the usual drill...
    1. Does the problem exist with and without the antivirus and firewall(s) disabled?
    2. Are you using a pen and tablet device instead of a mouse?
    3. Did you install the program with antivirus and firewall(s) disabled?
    4. Disable the SLCache Folder found in Windows 7, 8, or 8.1 64 bit
    Local Disk C
    Program Files (x86)
    Common Files
    Adobe
    and in the Adobe Folder should be the SL Cache Folder that you delete or disable by renaming the Folder
    from SLCache to SLCacheOLD.
    5. Are you running the program as Administrator and is the latest version of QuickTime installed on the same
    computer as Premiere Elements 13?
    Let us start here and then decide what next.
    Thank you.

  • TS1696 I purchased and downloaded an episode of a television show onto my MacBook pro, as I have done before, but this one plays without audio. What gives?

    I purchased and downloaded an episode of a television show onto my MacBook pro, as I have done before, but this time it only plays without audio. What gives?

    Okay, so the download is possibly corrupt.  Did you try downloading again?
    Also, you'll likely get more appropriate responses posting to the iTunes for MAC forum instead of the iTunes for Windows forum where this currently is.

  • Its not at all startning and not giving any kind of error msg, and i restared pc many times and uninstall and installed many times, but still its not opening

    .its not at all startning and not giving any kind of error msg, and i restared pc many times and uninstall and installed many times, but still its not opening

    Also, if you downloaded earlier in the week, make sure you have the 37.0.1 updated that was released on Friday (I think).
    If needed, I suggest installing a slightly different way the next time:
    '''Clean Reinstall'''
    We use this name, but it's not about removing your settings, it's about making sure the program files are clean. As described below, this process does not disturb your existing settings. Do NOT uninstall Firefox, that's not needed.
    (1) Download a fresh installer for Firefox 37.0.1 from https://www.mozilla.org/firefox/all/ to a convenient location. (Scroll down to your preferred language.)
    (2) Exit out of Firefox (if applicable).
    (3) Rename the program folder
    ''(64-bit Windows folder names)''
    C:\Program Files (x86)\Mozilla Firefox
    to
    C:\Program Files (x86)\OldFirefox
    ''(32-bit Windows folder names)''
    C:\Program Files\Mozilla Firefox
    to
    C:\Program Files\OldFirefox
    (4) Run the installer you downloaded in #1. It should automatically connect to your existing settings.
    Any difference?
    Note: Some plugins may exist only in that OldFirefox folder. If something essential is missing, look in these folders:
    * \OldFirefox\Plugins
    * \OldFirefox\browser\plugins

  • I am trying to download and install adobe reader, but it is not working. Everytime I try, I get the download but when I try to install it, it goes somewhere but not on my screen for me to install. If I try to install again, it says only one copy can be in

    I am trying to download Adobe Reader, I have Windows 7 on my PC. Every time I get the download, I click on it to install the program, and I get the usual messages but I never get the install message. When I try the download again, I get a message telling me only one copy of the program can go on the computer. When I check the program list, it is not there. I have to restore my computer before I can attempt the download and install again. I have tried this at least 6 times but cannot install Adobe Reader. Please help me out with this. I really like this product and prefer to use it. I had o originally delete the program, due to an update conflict.

    You can try using this tool to first remove all traces of Reader from your computer:
    http://labs.adobe.com/downloads/acrobatcleaner.html
    Then, you can download the full offline Reader installer from
    http://get.adobe.com/reader/enterprise/
    After downloading, restart your computer and run the installer before doing anything else.

    Hi Sangeeta,
    For a fresh download on a new hard drive, it's best to start with the CC desktop app. Sign into adobe.com and download it here: creative.adobe.com/products/download/creative-cloud
    You can then launch the desktop, sign in and download PS & LR.

  • Photoshop elements 13 and premiere 13 purchased, downloaded and installed... but wont OPEN/LAUNCH.. HELLP!!?

    photoshop elements 13 and premiere 13 purchased, downloaded and installed... but wont OPEN/LAUNCH.. HELLP!!?

    Hello
    My "os" is windows 8.1
    When I clicked on the PHOTOSHOP 13 executable the photo editor popped up
    along with an install option.  Then I clicked install and then a update
    failed message popped up. (I've attached a screen shot photo of that) Then
    I clicked on error log and a "please quit and try again error code" message
    popped up. (I've also attached a screen shot photo of that as well) so
    after all that I closed everything and restarted my computer and clicked on
    the PHOTOSHOP 13 executable again and it went straight to the photo editor
    not the welcome screen (where I can choose either organizer or photo
    editor)... why isn't there a welcome screen like before?
    When I clicked on the executable for PREMIERE 13 there was two executable
    options.. one that was labeled (PREMIERE 13 exe) and another that was
    labeled just (PREMIERE exe) without the "13" so first I clicked on PREMIERE
    13 exe and it took me to the welcome screen so then I clicked on video
    editor the new project but nothing happened. ... the loading bar moves then
    stops.  So after that I closed it and went back to click the PREMIERE exe
    and it took me straight to the video editor, again no welcome screen (were
    i can choose either organizer or video editor) just like the  photoshop....
    so in the end I am able to click on the executable options for both
    photoshop 13 and premiere and it takes me straight to the editor but
    without the welcome screen...
    Clicking on the shortcut icons on my desk top still won't launch though....
    So does this mean it's working because clicking on the executable options
    takes me straight to the editor? Or is something still not right because
    the program won't open/launch when i click on the desktop shortcuts and
    welcome screen won't pop up when clicking on executable options?
    Thank you so much for replying I really appreciate it

    I am assuming that the purchase and download is from Adobe. You should find the information that you seek under My Orders at http://www.adobe.com after you sign in (as per John's link).
    However, if you have difficulties in going that route, please contact Adobe via Adobe Chat to discuss your order under the topic of Orders, Refunds, and Exchanges. To do that, click on the following link, and, when it opens, make sure that the topic is set at "Orders, Refunds, and Exchanges", click on the statement "Still need help? Contact us." to bring up the Adobe Chat.
    Contact Customer Care
    Please let us know the outcome.
    Thank you.

  • I have purchased and installed acrobat XI pro. When I run it a window pops up saying the the serial number I have provided is valid but a qualifying product cannot be found on the computer

    I have purchased and installed acrobat XI pro. When I run it a window pops up saying the the serial number I have provided is valid but a qualifying product cannot be found on the computer

    YOu have purchased or been sold an upgrade from Acrobat 9 or 10. You simply need to prove you own that old version using its serial number. be sure to keep both serials forever.

  • I have just purchased and installed a new Airport extreme base station but now the Airport Utility cannot see my old Airport Express. Are their compatibility issues and do I need to purchase a new Express?

    I have just purchased and installed a new Airport extreme base station but now the Airport Utility cannot see my old Airport Express. Are their compatibility issues and do I need to purchase a new Express?

    When you can, take a look at the old AirPort Express and locate the model number in the faint print on the side of the device.
    If you see A1084 or A1088, this is an older Express version that is no longer supported by the current version of AirPort Utility that you are using with the new AirPort Extreme.
    If that is the case, your Express is at least 6 years old...probably older...so it is about time to treat yourself to a new version with much faster speeds and more features.

  • Just purchased a ipad2, could not us it on my MacBook 10.4.1 - Purchased and installed OSX Snow Leopard 10.6.3 - downloaded and installed latest itunes, set up a itunes accounts and tested by purchasing an album and app, ipad does not show in devises?

    I just purchased a ipad2, it would not work on my MacBook 10.4.1 I purchased and installed OSX snow leopard 10.6.3 downloaded and installed the latest itunes, set up an itunes account, purchased some music and apps.  When i plug in my ipod it shows up and works, but when i plug in my new ipad the ipad screen comes up with a display of a cable and itunes but does not show in devises, i have tried all the resets and different USB ports with no success.  Any ideas short of selling it on ebay or buying a new computer?

    If you've already tried the usual rebooting of the computer and ports and stuff, there is only a few things left I can think of. It's possible that when you updated iTunes it didn't fully replace all the files, so I suggest just manually removing iTunes and then reinstalling it.
    Try removing iTunes manually first http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1224 then download a fresh copy, make sure it is 10.3.1
    It is essential that you go through Finder to remove those files it mentions. Otherwise they won't be reinstalled when you run the installer again.

  • HT1338 Why am I getting a message "You can't open the application iPhoto because it may be damaged or incomplete" - v11, purchased and installed before Lion upgrade

    I get the message "You can't open the application iPhoto because it may be damaged or incomplete." This is a currently support iPhoto'11. Purchased and installed prior to OS X Lion upgrade. Was working, and now it is not. What might have happened? I saw  that Apple updated iPhoto in the App Store, but that is not where I purchased this. I tried Software Update, but it said all the software was up to date.
    Suggestions?

    Do you have iLife '11 Discs or did you download it from the App Store?

  • Which mac to purchase and install the upgrade?

    I synch my Touch with 2 separate macs. One for calendar and address book and one for photos and videos.
    Does it matter which mac the 2.0 is purchased and installed on?
    Thanks.

    It should take about 30 minutes, give or take. But, if you sync your iPod before installing 2.0, then iTunes will automatically backup your iPod (as long as "disable automatic backup" isn't checked in Preferences). So I think all your iCal and address book stuff will still sync back to your iTunes if you sync it on the computer with your music on it
