I installed Lion 10.7.4. Went to use Photoshop Cs and got a popup window. You can't open the application Adobe Photoshop CS because PowerPC applications are no longer supported. Is there a way of getting this to work or do I have to get newest version of all of my Power PC apps?
Welcome to Apple Communities
PowerPC applications are unsupported in newer versions. You can upgrade Photoshop or you can install Snow Leopard in a partition.
1. Open Disk Utility (Applications > Utilities) and select your drive
2. Go to Partitions tab, press + button, create a new partition and press Apply
3. Insert the Snow Leopard install DVD and reboot pressing C key
4. Install it in the new partition
5. If you want to change boot, go to System Preferences > Startup Disk and select 10.7 -
Hi!
Prolems started after uploading the Lion in March. Now at least Windows 7 users can´t open any pdfs or jpegs that I have included into sent e-mails. They can see that they are included but can´t open them. What can I do?It's a bug in Outlook. Each version of Outlook has its own unique bug that prevents it form displaying email that didn't come from another Outlook user. Apple has attempted to dumb-down Mail and make it more complex in order to work around these issues, but Microsoft keeps changing the bugs in each version of Outlook instead of making an Internet Email standard compliant email client.
Are they able to right-click on the image and save it from the contextual menu?
Otherwise, make sure Send windows friendly, attachments at end of message are checked and send plain text.
Or, zip the attachments and send that way.
There is also a program called Attachment Tamer that many people have found useful. -
When I bought my Macbook Air in 2011, ( leopard on purchase - now mountain lion) I discovered how to close open Finder windows by double clicking at the top of the window. I have just bought an iMac (mountain lion) and for the life of me cant find out how to do the same. Finder preferences are no help. Can anyone out there be of some?
Thanks in advanceI know what you are referring to. In both cases, the window is minimized, but on your MacBook Air, your Finder window is minimized onto the Finder icon, and on the iMac, on the right side of the Dock.
To change this on your iMac, open System Preferences > Dock, and mark "Minimize windows into application icon" -

I'm using a Windows XP (32 Bit). I can't open my "iTunes Store" page. I have to struggle just to open the iTunes icon. When I do, it opens directly to my music library. When I try to click to the iTunes Store, it opens to a blank page with the words "iTunes Store" embossed in gray in the middle of the page. That's it! NO GRAPHICS! I even tired the "Diagnostics" test. It shows that there is a disconnect with the internet and the iTunes Store. When I clicked the "Help" button next to it, it opened to a totally blank page. Nothing. I'm trying to sync an iPad 2 to iTunes on that computer. It shows on the computer that the apps have been synced, but they are not present on the iPad. Just as a note: the apps and info in the account has been loaded on the computer via 3Gs and then a 4S phone. Thank you for any and all help in this matter.

Since last windows update, I can't open emails in Hotmail. (I.E. OK)
I run XP pro. Firefox is my default browser. It was working fine till 3 days ago when I installed (express like always) 2 windows updates. Since then I can't open, delet or move emails within hotmail. If I use I.E to view hotmail, everything works. The same thing happened last year and within a week there was a firefox update. After installing that, - Hotmail behaved normally. Is a new fix coming soon please? OR is it a cookiew issue? I accept 3rd party cookies until I close Forefox

http://Hello Peter.
Try to access your email using Firefox's safe-mode to disable extensions and add-ons. If that fixes the issue, it will narrow down the possible source of the problem.
We'll see how to go on about it from then on. -

Installed Windows 8, but can't open in OS X anymore!
I have installed Windows 8 on my mid-2009 13" Macbook Pro, with mountain Lion on the other partition. Now when I shut down/restart, it only opens in Windows 8! I've held down "X" on the start-up and that doesnt work.
How do I start up in OSX?!you have to hold down the option key
another option is to use the bootcamp tools that you installed along with the apple drivers disc you made in osx bootcamp program
this bootcamp utils in windows will let you choose if you want it to boot up default in windows or osx
you have a tool like it in osx so you can switch between them without using the option key at startup at all -
Windows media player - can't open it, can't trash it
I recently upgraded from 10.3 to 10.4 then to 10.4.11. Everything was good.
I've installed all the updates etc. No problems.
The only problem (oh surprise, surprise) is that I cannot open windows media player and when I try to trash its folder it is says repeatedly that components this and that can't be trashed becuse they are 'fixed'.(I think)
I have flip4mac installed and other apps for playing video and audio. No problems as far as I can see with them.
How do I uninstall media player - forever and ever - please?
Thanks anyone
GordonHi Gordon!
This is probably the error message you are seeing.
"The operation could not be completed because the item 'item_name' is locked."
If you press the Option key, as you select Empty Trash, it should empty immediately.

i install some app from app store in my iphon 5s and after finish download open window appear near app but this window not work my mean is app not open
and also in phon display i can not find this app please tell me what is problem?
many thanksMac's do a pretty good job of keeping themselves tidy and not clogging up with masses of redundant files, so the use of cleanup utilities tends to be unecessary - - - and can cause more problems than it solves!
The apps that no longer appear in Launchpad - are they still in your Applications folder accessed through Finder? If so, try launching them from there and see if they reappear in Launchpad.
As for non-displayed emails, Clean My Mac may have wiped them. But try this - back up any important files, then select a folder in Mail (say, inbox), click Mailbox in top menu, then click rebuild (the last option on that menu). If they do not reappear, then you could try accessing them from your mail/internet provider providing you have opted to keep messages on server.
As a last resort, you could try restore from Time Machine - you do keep a backup don't you? -
Windows like Channels, can they open downwards ?
Pshop CS4
If I have floating image windows as opposed to tabs, and when I select layers, the layer flyout comes out sideways and sits behind my images so I cant access it. How do I get it to show on top of an image ?
I have been with Photoshop since the early days and flyout occurred downwards, so the windows column of options like actions, histogram, layers etc never did this and was always viewable, but how do I get it go open downwards in CS4, its forever occupying my screen forcing me to use far less screen and I cant see what I am doing on the images. I have always had my images touching edge of palettes at right making them big enough to work on and those palettes opening downwards. Now with CS4 they open sideways reducing my working area drastically. I need to have two images open at the same time for this job so floating images is required.
Would perhaps CS5 resolve this design of interface issue or is there a fix for CS4 or an option for open downwards I am missing as a setting somewhere ? I can't see it in help.
EnvirographicsYou can do a few things to make cs4 act like some of the older versions,
but there are quite a few quirks in how the non tabbed interface works in
cs4/cs5 as say compared to cs so in cs4/cs5 you really can't get it the
same.
You can get the palettes (panels) to expand downwards by double clicking on the name
like layers instead of clicking on the top of the panel. The only thing is unlike say cs,
if you had all the palettes linked together and double clicked on the top of the upper most
palette, all the palettes would collapse or expand. In cs4/cs5 only one panel at a time will
collapse, and the same goes for expanding.
Added: others may have better suggestions than i, since i have
kinda forced myself to get used to the tabbed interface.

Just installed itunes on windows 8 and can't open it
Have purchased a new computer with Windows 8. Have just installed itunes on it and now it will not let me open it!! Please help
Hello Jess2321,
I recommend this article named iTunes for Windows Vista or Windows 7: Troubleshooting unexpected quits, freezes, or launch issues found here http://support.apple.com/kb/ts1717. The name says Windows 7 but the troubleshooting will be relevant for Windows 8, although some of the locations in the OS may be a bit different.
Take care,

Upgrade to 7.7 on Windows XP and can't open iTunes
I have uninstalled and reinstalled three times after upgrading to 7.7 so that I could activate my new iPhone. When I try to launch iTunes...nothing happens. I see that the exe is listed in task manager and if I delete it and try to run it again I get the following message.
The application or DLL C:\Windows\system32\cryptdlg.dll is not a valid Windows image. Please check this against your Windows installation.
HELP! I was on the phone with tech support for two hours without any resolution.The application or DLL C:\Windows\system32\cryptdlg.dll is not a valid Windows image. Please check this against your Windows installation.
Okay. Literally, it's saying that one of the dlls associated with Cryptographic Services on the PC (cryptdlg.dll) is acting up in some way. And if some of those dlls are misregistered, damaged or missing, then you can get an error-message-free iTunes launch failure (even though the iTunes.exe process appears in your Task Manager).
So, first I think we should try checking to see if it's a registration problem with the dlls. With that in mind, try running through *Method 4* from the following Microsoft document:
(MS) You cannot install some updates or programs
*If any of the dlls fail to deregister or reregister,* let us know which ones they are, and what any error messages say when the deregistration or reregistration fails.
*If all the dlls deregister and reregister,* try restarting the PC and launching iTunes again. Does it launch this time?
