I STILL can't open FCE :( I need help!
Hi there,
I recently purchased Final Cut Express 2.0 and installed it onto my computer. After running into numerous glitches, I upgraded to FCE 3.5.
I installed FCE 3.5 and LiveType and Soundbooth both are working great. However, when I open FCE, it begins to open and starts to load. You assume it is going to load in, but then the screen disappears and you are back to the desktop. It dissappears on the splashscreen when something about "AU Pitch" comes up.
I have deleted the preference files from the library, figuring that would be the solution. However, it seems as if that still has not solved my problem. I also tried Reparing Disc Utilities AND I tried re-installing just Final Cut Express after deleting the files that I thought might have been corrupt. I also tried deleting any thrid party downloads or anything I thought might not agree with Final Cut...but still, no luck.
Can anybody lend some advice as to what else I might try? If you have steps on how to do these things, that'd be great, too.
The apple support people that I called said I should come on here, so please do not advise me to call Apple.
THANK YOU!!!!
Did you trash the preferences and uninstall FCE EXACTLY as per the instructions in your other post ?
http://discussions.apple.com/message.jspa?messageID=6309315#6309315
If you didn't do EXACTLY what was in those instructions you will have wasted your time.
If they don't cure it you must have something unusual installed on your computer that is causing a conflict.
As nobody else has access to your Mac, there is no way of telling what that might be.
You haven't by any chance got FileVault turned on ? (Find it in System Preferences>Security)
Why don't you uninstall FCE 3.5 properly and reinstall FCE 2 ? This way, if it worked it might suggest there is a problem with the FCE 3.5 DVD. (You will get an error message but you simply press the esc key to let FCE open).
How did you originally install FCE 3.5 ? Did you put FCE 2 on first ?
You shouldn't have FCE 2 on an Intel Mac at all. You just install the FCE 3.5 Upgrade ONLY and put in both serial numbers when asked.

The advice you've received previously seems pretty solid, so let's troubleshoot the problem.

PLease help tech unsavvy struggler. After a grey screen and damaged HD that will not repair I was advised to copy my HD and Leopard installation to a new drive, then erase the HD and reinstall. But now can't open anything as my password wont work anymore.
Let's concentrate on this portion of text only.
Gray screen: usually means non-woriking or uninstalled HD
Won't repair: makes perfect sense, since you no longer have access to HD
Advised to copy HD and Leopard installation to a new drive, then erase the HD and reinstall: This is the most important text. It seems you don't use a backup drive. And since your HD is damaged/not working, you need to do the following: (1) remove the faulty drive, (2) install the new drive, (3) when you turn on your MBP, you may need to erase the newly installed HD, and this is where you have the problems. Describe, in detail, what's happening on your MBP screen. Is it still gray? What message are you getting? Where is it asking you for a password, and when?
I'm intereste: since your MBP drive is dead, how are you accessing this forum? -

Can't open my email, need help!
Hello, i'm having troubles when opening my email on my iMac. It doesn't works at all. Seems to me that its already opened, because there's this white dot underneath the Mail sign, but i can't reach the mail page. HELP!!!
Safe Boot from the HD, (holding Shift key down at bootup), it will try to repair your Disk Directory while the spinning radian is happening, so let it go, run Disk Utility in Applications>Utilities, then highlight your drive, click on Repair Permissions, reboot & see if it's any better.

I Have the same issue on a brand new iPad mini 2. My battery is only lasting up to 5 hours. I went on chat with Apple last night and they said my battery is fine and its a Safari issue. I'm literally losing 1% every 3-4 minutes. I tried recalibrating my battery, signing out of iCloud, shutting off all locations, turning off background app refresh, restoring network settings, restoring all, and finally restoring from iTunes with no luck. This is just awful. I got this iPad so I could use it on my long flight for a trip I have coming up, and unfortunately, it's not going to last that long, plus I'm concerned about how many times i will be recharging my battery because of this since battery's do have a life cycle dependent on the number of charges. This is frustrating and needs to be fixed ASAP and addressed by Apple.
By the way, Apple told me to bring my device to the Apple Store because it's still under warranty. That's great and all, but I'm going to waste my time if there is no fix for this issue.
Ok so you want Apple to address the problem, but yet you don't want to take it to them just in case they can't fix it? What if they can fix it? Complaining here certainly won't fix it. -

For my Mac Pro, after I downloaded the new Mavericks OS, I downloaded the new pages. However, I still can't open iCloud pages from iPad. Says that I need a new version of Pages on my Mac.
Please help.It appears that you are launching the old version, probably using an icon in your Dock. That icon is an alias & is not updated. You will need to go to your Applications folder & find the new Pages 5 icon & double-click it. Once it is launched, you can right-click on the icon & choose Options > keep in Dock from the contextual menu.

I bought a canon EOS Rebel T5i. It came with photoshop elements 11. PS won't open my C2 raw files and says my camera isn't supported by the software I have downloaded 7.4 dng converter and I still can't open the files. What do I need to do?
You need camera raw 8.4 for your camera, if it’s Digital Rebel T5 EOS 1200D EOS Kiss X70. It is not compatible with PSE11; so it’s a bit odd if that software was bundled with the camera except that it will work with jpegs. I suggest you download and install the free Adobe DNG converter to convert your CR2 files to the Adobe universal Raw format and the DNG files will editable in PSE11(keep your originals as backups and for use in the camera manufactures software)
Mac download (.dmg file) click here DNG Converter 8.4
You can convert a whole folder of raw images in one click. See this quick video tutorial:

I ordered the full creative cloud on sunday and received an order number but still can't open any of the programs. When i check the status of my order online, it says it can't find it. Is this normal after 3 days? I tried asking in a chat window instead of the forum but no one answered and after about ten minutes my screen restarted and closed the chat window down. It seems a little frustrating not knowing what happened to my order and not being able to contact anyone. Is all this usual with Adobe or are they just having technical problems this week?

Downloaded Camera Raw update 6.2 but still can't open raw images
I followed all the steps as indicated on this page: Adobe - Photoshop Elements : For Windows : Camera Raw 6.2 update but for some reason I still can't open .CR2 files . My camera (Canon Rebel T3i) is on the list of supported files. What should I do? I'm using Windows and I have Photoshop elements 8.0.
You need camera raw 6.4 for your camera. It is mot compatible with PSE8. You need to upgrade to PSE13. Alternatively, download and install the free Adobe DNG converter to convert your raw files to the Adobe universal Raw format and the files will open in PSE8 (keep your originals as backups and for use in the camera manufactures software)
Windows download (.exe file) click here DNG Converter 8.6

In Photoshop CS5 I have updated my raw-update that was suggested by my updatebutton in my photoshop. But I still can not open my new camera srw-files from my samsung nx300.
You cannot open Raw files from the Samsung NX300 in CS5.
Camera Raw plug-in | Supported cameras
Camera Raw-compatible Adobe applications
You need Adobe Camera Raw 7.4 or later which is only compatible with CS6 or later.
Some choices:
Upgrade to CS6
Join the Cloud
Join the CCPP
Free option: download the free Adobe DNG converter, convert all Raw files from the NX300 to DNGs then edit the DNGs in CS5
