Illustrator CC doesn't launch with Mac OS 10.6.8

I recently install Illustrator CC on my Mac OS 10.6.8 system and when I try to launch it the icon bounces a few times in the dock then goes away. I did a little digging into this and saw that the system requirements on the web page specific for Illustrator says OS 10.7 is needed, but the main page for CC says 10.6. Also, someone in my department is running OS 10.6.8 and his Illustrator CC is working. The only difference is that his Illustrator says it's version 17.1, mine says 17.0. My Adobe Application Manager says Illustrator is "Up to date".
Any suggestions?
Thanks!
Mike

Mike have you tried removing and reinstalling Illustrator CC? During the install process available updates will be applied which should allow you to update to version 17.1.0. You can find more details regarding uninstalling and reinstalling at CC desktop lists applications as "Up to Date" when not installed - http://helpx.adobe.com/creative-cloud/kb/aam-lists-removed-apps-date.html.

Illustrator CC2014 crashes at launch on Mac OS X Yosemite (10.10.1), I've updated Java and it still crash

Hi!
I need kelp, Illustrator CC2014 crashes at launch on Mac OS X Yosemite (10.10.1), I've updated Java and it still crash.
Then I moved to a different carpet plugin files that look like this and didn't worked.

I have no idea about the second part of your question but as for Java you need to install the Apple Java for OSX 2014-001. Look for it on the Apple site.

IPhone 5 doesn't work with Mac OS 10.5.8 - do I need to ugrade to 10.6 and then upgrade to Mountain Lion or can I just upgrade to Mtn Lion right away?

iPhone 5 doesn't work with Mac OS 10.5.8 - do I need to ugrade to 10.6 and then upgrade to Mountain Lion or can I just upgrade to Mtn Lion right away?

At least to 10.6.8. You must do this to upgrade to Mountain Lion.
Upgrading to Snow Leopard
You can purchase Snow Leopard through the Apple Store: Mac OS X 10.6 Snow Leopard - Apple Store (U.S.). The price is $19.99 plus tax. You will be sent physical media by mail after placing your order.
After you install Snow Leopard you will have to download and install the Mac OS X 10.6.8 Update Combo v1.1 to update Snow Leopard to 10.6.8 and give you access to the App Store. Access to the App Store enables you to download Mountain Lion if your computer meets the requirements.
     Snow Leopard General Requirements
       1. Mac computer with an Intel processor
       2. 1GB of memory
       3. 5GB of available disk space
       4. DVD drive for installation
       5. Some features require a compatible Internet service provider;
           fees may apply.
       6. Some features require Apple’s iCloud services; fees and
           terms apply.
Upgrading to Mountain Lion
To upgrade to Mountain Lion you must have Snow Leopard 10.6.8 or Lion installed. Purchase and download Mountain Lion from the App Store. Sign in using your Apple ID. Mountain Lion is $19.99 plus tax. The file is quite large, over 4 GBs, so allow some time to download. It would be preferable to use Ethernet because it is nearly four times faster than wireless.
     OS X Mountain Lion - System Requirements
       Macs that can be upgraded to OS X Mountain Lion
         1. iMac (Mid 2007 or newer) - Model Identifier 7,1 or later
         2. MacBook (Late 2008 Aluminum, or Early 2009 or newer) - Model Identifier 5,1 or later
         3. MacBook Pro (Mid/Late 2007 or newer) - Model Identifier 3,1 or later
         4. MacBook Air (Late 2008 or newer) - Model Identifier 2,1 or later
         5. Mac mini (Early 2009 or newer) - Model Identifier 3,1 or later
         6. Mac Pro (Early 2008 or newer) - Model Identifier 3,1 or later
         7. Xserve (Early 2009) - Model Identifier 3,1 or later
To find the model identifier open System Profiler in the Utilities folder. It's displayed in the panel on the right.

illustrator cs3 crashes upon launch in mac os 10.4.11

illustrator cs3 does not complete its launch in mac os 10.4.11.
[i'm running a powermac dual 1.25 ghz power pc g4 mirror door].
the same happens with indesign cs3.
photoshop cs3 launches just fine.
can anyone help?
thanks.

You might try trashing the settings folder.
It could be a font issue or a font cache issue as well
to trash the settings folder you go to
User/Username/Library/Preferences/Adobe Illustrator CS3 Settings
The font cache that could becuasing the problems would be found by doing a search for AdobeFnt.lst they usually have a number after Fnt like 01 or 11
They can be trashed and new fresh ones will be made but this could be a corrupt font.
This is a bit old but you might look at this as well. But you have an older system so it may apply.

Camera Raw 5.7 doesn't work with MAC Elements 6

RAW 5.7 doesn't work on Elements 6.
5.6 works fine, placing the plugin in the /PLUG-INS/CS3/FILE FORMATS and starting Elements 6 and trying to open a raw file says
Unable to use camera raw plugin
It is not compatible with this version of Photoshop Elements
I have read the 5.7 raw read-me and it definitely says that it is compatible with MAC Elements 6 could somebody confirm this?

Thank you, another case of big corporations screwing over the little guy. You want the latest update - you have to upgrade your complete software package. Wouldn't it be nice if they made the plugin compatible with the products as stated in their documentation and then posted a note saying that further updates will not be compatible?
After all, windows users got a version 7, us poor MAC users didn't!
Anyway thanks for the answers.

Download doesn't work with MAC 10.4.11 and i just noticed my Firefox is 2.0.0.6

Hi,
I tried downloading the free Firefox. As soon as I clicked on it a message popped up and said it wasn't compatible with my Mac.
My Mac is 104.11 and I cannot afford to buy another computer right now. The screens say it is compatible with MAC 10.4.11...
Any suggestions

Sadly, Firefox no longer includes support for MacOS 10.4, however you can still use browsers similar to Firefox. <br>
[http://www.tenfourfox.com/ TenFourFox] is an unofficial build of Firefox for older Macs, and so will work on your computer. However since you are using a really old computer, it doesn't have all the features Firefox has. <br>
[http://caminobrowser.org/ Camino] is a community project to make the best Gecko-based browser for Macs around. Unlike TenFourFox it doesn't try to be Firefox, but instead does its own thing. <br>
[http://www.seamonkey-project.org/ SeaMonkey] is another community effort and is a continuation of the original Mozilla Suite which shares a few similar properties with Firefox. SeaMonkey is great for people who like their browsing experience retro.

Apple Keyboard with number pad doesn't work with Mac Pro?

I have a Mac Pro, and have used an Apple Keyboard with a number pad (not bluetooth) with it for quite a while, with no problems. But then my keyboard broke and I ordered a replacement Apple Keyboard with a number pad (not bluetooth). This keyboard doesn't work with my Mac Pro. I have it plugged in, but I can't get the Mac Pro to consistently recognize that there is a USB keyboard connected to it. What magical stuff do I have to do to get the keyboard to be fit for purpose?

It would not hurt to try an SMC Reset. (But if it does not help, it adds credence to lllaass assertion that the keyboard is not working.)

WPA PSK doesn't work with MAC Authentication. AP1231G

Hi, yesterday I've installed an Aironet Access Point 1200 series AP1231G for the first time.
I'd like to use MAC Authentication with an WPA Pre-Shared Key. But it doesn't work. If I choose "Open Authentication with MAC Authentication", I can't type an WPA Pre-Shared Key. The system doesn't keep it.
It only works with "Open Authentication" without MAC-Filter.
Settings:
Encryption Manager: TKIP
SSID Manager
1. Client Authentication: Open Authentication with MAC Authentication
2. Key Managemnet: Mandatory WPA + WPA Pre-Shared-Key
If I type in a Pre-Shared-Key and click on "Apply", the Pre-Shared-Key get loss.

Tina,
In Cisco IOS releases 12.3(4)JA and later, you cannot enable both MAC-address authentication and WPA-PSK.

Portable HD doesn't launch on MAC

Just got another external portable 160GB hard drive from Western Digital-- It doesn't launch on my computer. How can I see the external drive?

Hi sometimes the single plug usb cable does not provide enough power for for those little western digital passport drives.
Western Digital will on request send you a double power usb cable.
Or you can pick on up very cheaply from any good computer store.
or you can try amazon

Magic Charger Mobee for Magic Mouse doesn't work with Mac OS X lion Mountain

The Magic Charger Mobee for Magic Mouse Apple
with Mac OS X lion Mountain
makes connections overflows and stops the system work.
What could I do, other that disconnect Magic Charger?

When you say you cannot add the printer, with the Add Printer pane open, is the 6250 visible in the Default Add Printer view? If no then it could be the USB cable at fault and I suggest you try another cable.
If the printer is visible but the Mac fails to locate a driver when you select it then you may have to trash the contents of the BJPrinters folder (HD > Library > Printers > Canon) and then run the iX6250 driver installer again.

Lexmark scanner doesn't work with mac os x

I have a problem with my scanner lexmark p4330. For two weeks now it doesn't work with my imac. I have the imac os x 10.7.5.
When I try to scan, my printer displays "the all in one driver did not respond" and in Image Capture it displays "lexmark language error".
I updated my softwares, there's one for lexmark but I can't install it and I don't know why!
Can someone help me please?

Mmm. Not sure what's going on. Has scanning ever worked with the OS you are currently running?
A couple of suggestions (my last two I think as I'm running out of ideas ). I realise that your problems are only with scanning, but sometimes resetting the printing system resloves printing problems. I wonder whether it will help with the scanning issue given that Print & Scan are lumped together in System Preferences. To do it go to:
System Preferences>Print & Scan, Control+Click or Right Click on the printer on the left and select 'reset printing system'. All printers will be deleted and need to be added again using the '+' button.
If that doesn't help my last suggestion is to download the paid for app VueScan (which you can run in demo mode for free) to see whether it works or not. VueScan is very good and driving numerous types of scanners:

Illustrator CC crashes on launch on Mac 10.7.5

Just today my Illustrator CC started crashing on launch. First time it happened Adobe directed me to a fix:
Illustrator 17.1 stability fix (Mac-only)
I did as directed, but with no effect. What now?

hawk,
The following is a general list of things you may try when the issue is not in a specific file (you may have tried/done some of them already); 1) and 2) are the easy ones for temporary strangenesses, and 3) and 4) are specifically aimed at possibly corrupt preferences); 5) is a list in itself, and 6) is the last resort.
1) Close down Illy and open again;
2) Restart the computer (you may do that up to 3 times);
3) Close down Illy and press Ctrl+Alt+Shift/Cmd+Option+Shift during startup (easy but irreversible);
4) Move the folder (follow the link with that name) with Illy closed (more tedious but also more thorough and reversible);
5) Look through and try out the relevant among the Other options (follow the link with that name, Item 7) is a list of usual suspects among other applications that may disturb and confuse Illy, Item 15) applies to CC, CS6, and maybe CS5);
Even more seriously, you may:
6) Uninstall, run the Cleaner Tool (if you have CS3/CS4/CS5/CS6/CC), and reinstall.

Illustrator SC4 crushes at launch on Mac OS 10.10, what can I do to fix this?

Since the new update to the mac OS 10.10 my illustrator SC4 is crushing when i launch it. It gives me two pop up windows
1st "Do you want the application "SFCore" to accept incoming network connections?" No matter what i answer "deny or allow" it does not change anything.
2nd "Do you want the application "FontTool" to accept incoming network connections?"
And gives me a details report. Then on the report if i click re-launch it basically goes through the same cycle.
Please help! Thank you!

Downgrade the system.

Problem with Internet Key Onda Mt835Up: It doesn't work with mac os 10.6.6

Hi I have a problem with internet key Onda MT835UP. It doesn't work, because my imac is more new than internet key.
Can you help me? Can you send me the upgrade for this internet key?
Thanks

I have called Onda, there isn't the driver for Mac OS X 10.6.7 and they don't know if it'll be released.
So if you have a Mac it's better to not buy Onda internet key,
instead it's better to choose other brands that update the drivers of their products.
