Indesign CS4, CS5 Mac freezes/How can I get it to run?
I have been using Indesign CS5 Mac version. When I open it, after I make a new document, the color wheel keeps spinning until I force-close the program or restart my machine. I have taken CS5 off of my system and reloaded it with the same conclusion. Because I needed to use Indesign, I loaded version CS4, but came up with the same exact problem: the color wheel spinning continuously right after I have opened a new document.
Any suggestions?

On my Mac Pro how can I get voiceover to start reading at a specific point in a document, and then continue on to the next paragraph and so on? Thank you. Ed
Welcome to the Apple family!!!!
How can I cause the VO cursor(box) show-up/start?
Press Control-Option and F5. The F5 key is located on the top row of keys 6th key over. This is a toggling "Keyboard Shortcut" for turning VoiceOver on and off.
How can I move the VO cursor to various sentences or paragraphs of an article and have it start reading ... and perhaps even continue reading on to the next paragraph(s) ... even to the end of the article?
How to read a website with VoiceOver
Step 1: Go to the Website
A quick keyboard shortcut is Command-L. This will jump you up to the address bar. Start typing where you want to go. i.e "www.thewebsite.com"
Step 2: Working with Webpage
VoiceOver will automatically start reading the website. You can pause the speech by hitting the 'Control Button'.
If VoiceOver does not being reading the webpage, then you might have to "Interact" with it. If VoiceOver say "HTML Content" then press Control-Option-Space-Down Arrow to interact with the webpage.
Use Control-Option-Right Arrow to move throught the website. This will speak "EVERYTHING" on the page.
Most website that I've found have their articles labeled as 'Heading'. You can jump from heading to heading, by pressing Control-Option-Shift-H.
If you'd like an itemized alphabetical listing of the site, press Control-Option-I
Press Control-Option-Space on the link or article you want to view.
Step 3. Reading from Top to Bottom
Once you found and clicked on the the article/link, use the same 'Heading' command, Control-Option-Shift-H to find the title.
After finding the title, press Control-Option-A will start reading from the title on.
Note: If there are any other items (ads, pictures, etc) it will read those too.
Tip: You might be able to activate a feature called the 'Reader'. The Reader isolates the article and elimanates the ads The keyboard command is Shift-Command-R. You can also find it in the Menu Bar (Command-Option-M) under the word 'View' then 'Show Reader'.
I am using a MACPro with OSX, probably Mavericks 10.9 (where would I look to see if that is the correct information?)
You can find this information under the 'Apple menu' in the Menu Bar. To access the Menu Bar, press Control-Option-M.
Go to Apple Menu > About This Mac. This will open up another window. Use Control-Option-Right Arrow until you hear 'Version'. If you purchased it brand new from Apple within the last six month, more than likely you have Mavericks.

The 'Commands Help' Voiceover Menu. Control-Option-H-H. (hit H twice) is my best friend. It's a searchable VoiceOver Menu with most of the VoiceOver command. Example: You are looking for the 'Read Current Paragraph' keyboard command. Press Control-Option-H-H and then type Paragraph. It will then bring up all the commands with the word paragraph. I believe there are three.

My 1st ipod was lost. My library is on a Dell with Windows. I registered my new ipod to a Mac. How can I get my library from Windows onto my new Ipod?
Thank you for your help. I am still having trouble. As you can tell, I am not technologically advanced AT ALL. My music is all showing up in the library but when I go to file in the top left corner, Sync is greyed out and I cannot select it. I'm gonna continue to try this. It's been a long time since I had my 1st ipod and things have changed so much I will probably need to research this stuff. Thanks again for your help.

When i try to access iwork on iCloud on my mac, i get an ipage logo with 2 options learn/get image. I already have ipage on my mac. How can i get to the file management page?
Lion will only let you add documents to iCloud through iCloud.com, iCloud.com requires the iOS apps before you can use it.
Mountain Lion will let you add documents to iCloud from the iWork apps themselves, you don't then need the iOS apps before they can be opened on another Mac. -
I have lost the iCloud program from my Mac. How can i get it back?
It think i must have deleted it? It is no longer under the system choises.
Does anyone know how i can get it back?
I am updating to OS X Mountain Lion now, but i don`t know if that will fix the problem?Did you actually remove iPhoto or just the shortcut in the Dock?

Rick TatemI still can't get it to work that way. I changed my cfexecute to:
<cfexecute name="C:\windows\system32\cmd.exe" arguments="/c C:\Inetpub\wwwroot\captcha\#cmd_filename#" outputFile="C:\testoutput.txt" timeout = "90"></cfexecute>
And I changed my bat file to have:
<cfsavecontent variable="cmd_content">
cd\
TSC.exe /s "#newString#" C:\Inetpub\wwwroot\captcha\#FileName# Mary (for Telephone)
</cfsavecontent>
The output file is showing:
C:\ColdFusion9\runtime\bin>cd\
C:\>TSC.exe /s "3.....P.....4.....Z.....8.....U.....7.....X....." C:\Inetpub\wwwroot\captcha\3P4Z8U7X-105724.wav Mary (for Telephone)
I still can't get it to run the exe. I have watched the process list while running this and the exe doesn't show up. I tried cfexecute on the exe directly before trying the bat method, with hard coded arguments, and it still didn't work. I am so lost right now this makes no sense to me. -
I have Photoshop CS5 for Mac. How can I get my epson scanner to import?
Why can't I download TWAIN to my CS5Photoshop for Mac?
If you need Photoshop CS5 in 64 bit mode to access ram over 4GB, Adobe has good advice.
TWAIN plug-in | Photoshop CS4, CS5, CS6
I like the Vuescan recommendation. They provide their own 64 bit Twain plugin. It's great if you can afford the paid solution.
You can try before you buy: www.hamrick.com
I don't use Twain often, it does put Photoshop on hold until the scan is finished.

Just bought a Mac Pro, how can I get 5.1/DTS out of this thing?
What do I need? I have a small office, don't need a high end sound system. Just something to give me good 5.1 when playing a movie (or very rarely, a game).
Thanks,Whoa whoa whoa.
Hold up here. There are a few very important things
to know about the Mac Pro and Surround Sound.
Mac Pro's (and the Quad G5's for that fact) do not
have PCI Slots. They only have PCI-E (PCI Express)
slots, and thus, there are currently NO sound cards
available that will work in your Mac Pro to provide
surround sound. M-Audio does not make a PCI-E Sound
card, so do not buy a PCI card- it won't fit. There
is nothing you can do about that until M-Audio comes
out with a PCI-E Sound Card for the Mac Pro.
You're right - I checked/verified this with M-Audio's tech support. Bummer.
Your onboard sound jack on the MP will output 2
Channels of audio (left/right). This is not surround
sound.
Didn't think so....
Your onboard Optical jack will output 2 Channels of
Digital audio from any application, game, or movie.
I thought perhaps this optical out would output 5.1 - bummer.
Any DVD that has a Dolby/DTS Surround Sound (5.1)
audio track (most do these days), can be played via
the Mac Pro's Optical port as a Dolby/DTS Audio
stream, but you REQUIRE an external decoder such as
an Amplifier.
I was afraid of that.... Can anyone suggest a good, very small form factor decoder that would fit well under/on a desk or behind a computer, or hidden somewhere out of sight?
This will give you surround sound via a DVD, only
because the sound is pre-encoded in the Dolby/DTS
format.
DVD's are my main concern - I'm not big into games myself.
Games will not be able to "encode on the fly" a
surround sound into a Dolby/DTS audio signal, so you
cannot get surround sound from the Optical port.
As far as a Dolby compatible unit goes for the
outside of the computer, I would suggest the Logitech
Z5500's. They have a nice little control-center that
handles the optical DTS streams and plays 5.1 Sound.
The system is fairly compact, save for the 10" Sub
Woofer that also has the amplifier built into it (but
that can go on the floor).
That answers my previous question from the sounds of it....
Z5500's are your best bet for a cheap, nice setup for
5.1 surround from your Mac Pro as is.
Again, I will mention this again because these forums
are *really* misleading when it comes to Mac
Surround.
-There are no PCI-E Sound cards for the Mac Pro.
-Onboard Optical will output 2 Channels only, unless
you play a Surround DVD Disk with the Dolby/DTS
audio
-Games cannot output a surround signal. Most Mac
games do not support surround regardless of if you
even had the hardware to do it.
-Your only real alternative is a Firewire box that
outputs 5.1 via Analogue cables, but even so, there
are few games that actually support surround on the
Mac.
Excellent info, thanks....
So ether way, there really isn't any point at all to
pursue an external sound card or an internal unit.
I'm sure M-Audio must eventually be releasing a PCI-Ex version of their Revolution card, don't you think?
Just use the Optical port on the Mac Pro, and you
will get 5.1 Surround. That's about it,
unfortunately. There isn't any other solution to
getting surround sound from anything other then a DVD
at this time.
