Installed Yosemite: now can't save any files / ID, Ai, PS. Is this an Adobe issue or Apple issue?

I am still on Mavericks and was going to update to Yosemite, but am scared that if I do that I will lose my programs. I am following your question and I really hope that this works out for the both of us. Good Luck!!!

  • Can't save any file with any name-InDesign CC

    can't save any file with any name-file DBTmp4376-863643269 is damaged (error code:0)
    InDesign CC, OS version 10.9.1
    I explored solutions to failure in background task alert which did not work. Been using adobe products since they came on the scene. Nothing like this. Please help.

    I'm using version 9.2.
    Yes, it started with a new file. Support gave me the solution to save it to my desktop which worked. When I put it back in the original folder and opened/save it would not save to that folder. Created a new folder and was able to open & save to the new folder. That seems to be a workable solution. How a folder can become corrupt is a bit scarey.
    In experimenting with solutions I received another error "failure in background task alert" and discovered CS5 problems with background task.
    However the solutions for CS5 did not work in my incidence.
    I sure would like to prevent this from happening again. If you have any insights please share them. Otherwise I will just accept the experience as another computer workaround and be thankful that I have it.
    Thanks for responding.

  • I can't save any file on externals disk

    Big externals disk (above 100 GB) appears with orange color on the lateral bar. I can't save any file in this externals disk, I only can copy or read files from this disk. However that is possible in small external disk (16, 8GB or below) that appears with white color on lateral bar.
    How can I solve this problem?
    Thanks

    Check the Format of the external drive as it might be formatted for PC read/write but Mac Read only ?
    Select in then hit command-I and look under 'Format' - NTFS is PC 'standard' - if you want a drive to be read and written to by both PC's and Mac's then you need to format it as FAT32

  • Can't save any files ever since the update to Maverick.

    Hello everybody,
    Everytime I try to save a file the "save as" box pops up but as soon as I select a folder to save the file to....it flashes and closes.
    It's definitely an issue of the OS because it happens in any application when attempting to save.
    The only way I've worked around it is by saving is to the default location and then moving the file to it's intended location.  It's a major hassle and it makes me think there's more wrong with the update.   As much as I love the enhancements, I regret upgprading. 
    I would welcome any suggestions on what to do.  Or am I just stuck in waiting for an FIX from Apple?  I hope not.
    Thanks everybody in advance for what you can do.
    Cheers,
    Jamie "Mr. Applejack" Richards

  • I can't save any files.

    I can't save files in adobe Photoshop. I've had this program for AAGGGEEES, I think it's Photoshop 6 & I've never had this problem before. I've tried different variations of save & the screen just blinks & nothing happens? Can anyone help please?
    Cheers,
    Laura.

    OS?
    Boilerplate-text:
    Are Photoshop and OS fully updated and have you performed the usual trouble-shooting routines (trashing prefs by keeping command-alt-shift/ctrl-alt-shift pressed while starting Photoshop after making sure all customized presets like Actions, Patterns, Brushes etc. have been saved and making a note of the Preferences you’ve changed, 3rd party plug-ins deactivation, system maintenance, cleaning caches, font validation, etc.)?

  • Second hard drive added but can't save any files to it

    My 250 GB hard drive failed and was replaced under warrantee (thank God I had backed it up a week earlier)
    I had the operating system and application loaded on the 250GB drive and everything works fine. I had the dealer add a 500 GB Seagate Ultra 16 for storing all my data. I have a 500 GB external hard drive for back up. I am not able to save any data or create folders in the 500GB internal hard drive. My system profiler shows that its loaded. What do i need to do so taht i can use it for storing my data.

    The drive must first be partitioned then formatted:
    Extended Hard Drive Preparation
    1. Boot from your OS X Installer Disk. After the installer loads select your language and click on the Continue button. When the menu bar appears select Disk Utility from the Installer menu (Utilities menu for Tiger.)
    2. After DU loads select your hard drive (this is the entry with the mfgr.'s ID and size) from the left side list. Note the SMART status of the drive in DU's status area. If it does not say "Verified" then the drive is failing or has failed and will need replacing. Otherwise, click on the Partition tab in the DU main window.
    3. Set the number of partitions from the dropdown menu (use 1 partition unless you wish to make more.) Set the format type to Mac OS Extended (Journaled, if supported.) Click on the Partition button and wait until the volume(s) mount on the Desktop.
    4. Select the volume you just created (this is the sub-entry under the drive entry) from the left side list. Click on the Erase tab in the DU main window.
    5. Set the format type to Mac OS Extended (Journaled, if supported.) Click on the Options button, check the button for Zero Data and click on OK to return to the Erase window.
    6. Click on the Erase button. The format process will take 30 minutes to an hour or more depending upon the drive size.

  • Since i've installed lion I can't attach any file in the hotmail

    All the times I tried to attach in the hotmail I couldn't and received the message "bad file format". It's happening since I've installed the Lion OS. In the snow leopard there was no problem to attach.

    Your problems are probably caused by the Silverlight plug-in, and I would suggest you delete it.
    The solution is to download and install the latest version of Flip4Mac, which now includes a Silverlight component:
    http://dynamic.telestream.net/downloads/download-flip4macwmv.htm
    But the latest news is that Microsoft will probably abandon Silverlight in favour of HTML5:

  • Moved user to a different computer, now can't open any files.

    I moved my friends account and his home directory to a different Mac and now none of the files will open. The user account name and password are the same and permissions are under his name, but when we try to open a file none will open. If I try to open a Pages file, it crashes Pages. If I try to open a .doc file, I get an error that says "file format invalid".
    His home directory is 9gb and the individual files are more than 0k so the information has to still be in there. I repaired permissions to no avail. How do I get this information back?

    Assuming the short user name of the account is "jim", Log in to the new Mac's admin account and enter these two commands into Terminal:
    sudo chown -R jim:jim ~jim [press return, enter admin password when prompted]
    sudo chmod -R u+rwX ~jim

  • Backed up before clean install but now can't see my files?

    I got Time Machine to do a full backup of my Mac Mini to my Time Capsule prior to doing a clean install of Mountain Lion.
    All went well with the install but how do I access all the files I backed up?

    Was the entire folder copied including the iTunesLibrary.itl file?

  • Photoshop CS3 is now closing when I attempt to save any file on our network.

    Photoshop CS3 is now closing when I attempt to save any file on our network.
    This has been occuring for the past few months.  I have 8 years with this not happening on this machine and this network.  I now have to save to my desktop, then move the file to the correct folder, re-open it and work from there.  Any ideas to fix this??

    Hi Andy,
    This workflow might be working for you however it is not the ideal or correct workflow.
    Please refer to below article.
    https://helpx.adobe.com/photoshop/kb/networks-removable-media-photoshop-cs5.html
    Photoshop is not supported while working with network drives. I would recommend an external or a local drive instead.
    Thank you for posting on Adobe Forums.

  • I can't open any files w/ XI

    I have W7 and NIS.   Ever since I installed Xi I can't open any files.   I am having problems updating windows also.

    What exactly means "can't"?  Can you open Reader by itself?
    Try the following: using Windows Explorer navigate to C:\Program Files\Adobe\Reader 11.0\Reader (or C:\Program Files (x86)\Adobe\Reader 11.0\Reader), then double-click on Eula.exe and accept the license agreement.

  • Having purchased and installed pages after finishing my 30 day trial I now can't save changes to documents, it keeps saying that my trial is over and I need a serial number?  Never got a serial number, any ideas how to rectify this?

    Hi, having purchased and installed pages after my 30 day trial had finished I am now unable to save any changes to documents I had created in the trial version.  It says I need a serial number, which I never got when I purchased the pages app.  Does anyone kno how to rectify this, I would be very grateful for any help as I'm currently writing up my thesis and am now unable

    Hi, I had the same problem and I found that you don't need a serial number anymore. Here is what I did:
    (1)I went to Applications fodder on my Mac. (You can navigate to the Application folder from 'New Finder Window.')
    (2) Deleted Pages (installed as part of the free  free trial version) from the Applications Folder. Also deleted 'IWorks' from the Applications folder.
    (3) Started AppStore.
    (4) Clicked on  Purchases.
    (5) Clicked on Pages.
    (6) Clicked Install.
    (4) repeated (5) and (6) for Numbers and Keynote

  • I was using Numbers '08 and just upgraded to 3.5.2 but now can't open any of my '08 files.  Message says save to '09 first to open.  Well, I don't have '09 so what do I do?

    Or you may obtain iWork '09 DVD package from Amazon online et al. Sold at very low price now. It is really worth it. Don't forget to apply the iWork 9.0.3 updater after intalling it.
