Lightroom 2 won't install on my macbook pro w/ mavericks. any suggestions?

i get an error message when i try to install lightroom2 on my macbook pro. it just about completes the process and when it starts to finalize it quits and says contact adobe.

My files are jpegs. Lightroom recognizes by SD card and a desktop folder into which I have exported photos from IPhoto. BUT Lightroom will not import the files whether from IPhoto, SD card or desktop folders. I have not tried attaching camera because Lightroom recognizes my SD card as a "Canon..."

  • I purchased adobe photoshop elements 12 and cannot open organizer on my macbook pro 7.1  Any suggest

    i purchased adobe photoshop elements 12 and cannot open organizer on my macbook pro 7.1  Any suggestions?

    After I successfully install the adobe photoshop elements 12 for mac, I try to open organizer and a window pops up that says
    "Adobe Elements 12 Organizer cannot be opened because of a problem. Check with the developer to make sure Adobe Elements 12 Organizer works with this version of Mac OSX. You may need to reinstall the application. Be sure to install any available updates for the application and Mac OSX. Click report to see more detailed information and send a report to Apple."
    I have checked for any updates on my Mac and it is up to date.
    I have tried reloading and am still getting the same result.
    I can open Editor, but not Organizer.
    I am running Mac OSX version 10.6.2.4 Ghz Intel Core 2 Duo Processor with 4 GB  memory, all standard stuff that came in the computer and I have no security software running when I do this.
    Any idea why it is not working?
    Thanks, Victor

  • Windows 8 won't install on my Macbook Pro, have installed Parallel Desktops 9.

    Am trying to download Windows 8 onto my Macbook Pro. I've installed Parallel Desktops 9. The Windows download keeps telling me it can't download because the setup file is not supported by OS X. Parallel Desktops is telling me I can install Windows via a PC, DVD or image file. Does this mean I cannot install Windows by downloading it.

  • ITunes 10.7 won't install on my Macbook Pro which is running OSX Mountain Lion

    Hi,
    I've been trying all day to get my iPhone 5 to connect to my iTunes so I can sync my music etc. 
    First thing, when I connected to my MacBook Pro it says "The iPhone “David's iPhone” cannot be used because it requires iTunes version 10.7 or later. Go to www.itunes.com to download the latest version of iTunes."
    So I downloaded iTunes 10.7 but when I attempt to install it I get "The installation failed.  The Installer encountered an error that caused the installation to fail."
    I am on OSX Mountain Lion 10.8.
    Can anyone suggest what I might have to do to get this to work?  I've even attempted to download OSX Update 10.8.2 but I get the same installation error.
    Can someone please help!
    Thanks

    It could be a transient problem with the network or the server that fixes itself after some time for no apparent reason. It may just work if you try again later.
    Also, go to Apple Menu > System Preferences > Network, choose Network Port Configurations from the Show popup menu, and make sure that the configuration used to connect to Internet appears at the top of the list.

  • Adobe Flash Player 9 won't install on my Macbook Pro!!!!!!!!!!

    I've had a problem with all these flashplayers on my MBP. I took it into Apple and they were able to get Flashplayer 8 (I believe) to finally work. This was quite some while ago. Well, these websites are using flashplayer 9 and I couldn't view them correctly, so I started to install it (the way the directions stated) and it gets hung up w/4 items remaining to install. It taxes my CPU from 90-100% the entire time and it just stays like that until I quit the installation.
    I've downloaded the uninstaller and ran it. I re-downloaded the flashplayer and tried installing it again, same thing. Re-did it...same outcome, obviously.
    This is driving me insane and now I have no flashplayer whatsoever.
    Hardware Overview:
    Machine Name: MacBook Pro 15"
    Machine Model: MacBookPro1,1
    CPU Type: Intel Core Duo
    Number Of Cores: 2
    CPU Speed: 2 GHz
    L2 Cache (shared): 2 MB
    Memory: 2 GB
    Bus Speed: 667 MHz
    SMC Version: 1.2f10
    I'm running 10.4.7 as well.

    Be sure you are getting the version of Flash Player from here: http://www.adobe.com/products/flashplayer/public_beta/. Other versions are not universal binaries and will not work on Intel Macs.
    The following may be helpful in learning what may and may not work properly on Intel Macs:
    A Basic Guide for Migrating to Intel-Macs
    If you are migrating a PowerPC system (G3, G4, or G5) to an Intel-Mac be careful what you migrate. Keep in mind that some items that may get transferred will not work on Intel machines and may end up causing your computer's operating system to malfunction.
    Rosetta supports "software that runs on the PowerPC G3 or G4 processor that are built for Mac OS X". This excludes the items that are not universal binaries or simply will not work in Rosetta:
    Classic Environment, and subsequently any Mac OS 9 or earlier applications
    Screensavers written for the PowerPC
    System Preference add-ons
    All Unsanity Haxies
    Browser and other plug-ins
    Contextual Menu Items
    Applications which specifically require the PowerPC G5
    Kernel extensions
    Java applications with JNI (PowerPC) libraries
    See also What Can Be Translated by Rosetta.
    In addition to the above you could also have problems with migrated cache files and/or cache files containing code that is incompatible.
    If you migrate a user folder that contains any of these items, you may find that your Intel-Mac is malfunctioning. It would be wise to take care when migrating your systems from a PowerPC platform to an Intel-Mac platform to assure that you do not migrate these incompatible items.
    If you have problems with applications not working, then completely uninstall said application and reinstall it from scratch. Take great care with Java applications and Java-based Peer-to-Peer applications. Many Java apps will not work on Intel-Macs as they are currently compiled. As of this time Limewire, Cabos, and Acquisition are available as universal binaries. Do not install browser plug-ins such as Flash or Shockwave from downloaded installers. These versions are not universal binaries and will not work on Intel-Macs. The version of OS X installed on your Intel-Mac comes with special compatible versions of Flash and Shockwave plug-ins for use with your browser.
    The same problem will exist for any hardware drivers such as mouse software unless the drivers have been compiled as universal binaries. For third-party mice the only current choice is USB Overdrive. Contact the developer or manufacturer of your third-party mouse software to find out when a universal binary version will be available.
    Also be careful with some backup utilities and third-party disk repair utilities. Disk Warrior (does not work), TechTool Pro (does not work), SuperDuper (newest release works), and Drive Genius (untested) may not work properly on Intel-Macs. The same caution may apply to the many "maintenance" utilities that have not yet been converted to universal binaries.
    Before migrating or installing software on your Intel-Mac check MacFixit's Rosetta Compatibility Index.

  • OS X Lion won't install on my MacBook Pro

    My hard drive crashed so I replaced it with a Western Digital 500 gb drive. I formatted the disk through disk utility and then began the process of downloading OS X Lion in internet recovery. I have my laptop on an ethernet cable. The estimated time remaining will say anything from 12-15 hours remaining despite any progress shown on the bar. I left my computer alone for over 40 hours, it was slowly downloading all this time. It had but a half centimeter left of the progress bar when a window popped up saying the additional components could not be downloaded. Why is this happening and what can I do?

    I was able to make a bootable installer on a flashdrive for mavericks and it won't install that way either. It says my new hard drive needs to be repaired but disk utility can't repair it so I keep recreating a partition and nothing is working. Please help me

  • The Sims 3 won't install on my macbook pro?

    I bought the instant download for The Sims 3 from Orgin today. I had no problem downloading it, but now I cannot get it to install.
    I know my specs are okay but here they are just in case:
    Processor: 2.8 GHz Intel Core i7
    Memory: 4 GB 1333 MHz DDR3
    Graphics: Intel HD Graphics 3000 384 MB
    Software: Mac OS X Lion 10.7.5
    (mid 2011 model)
    I went to check my installer, thinking that was the issue. I verified and then repaired.
    What could be the cause of the sims 3 not installing? I have spent the past 6 hours and it wont get past file 3 of 889.

    Is it a Mac disk?  If not, it won't work unless you create a Windows partition, and install Windows through Boot Camp or an emulator like Parallels.

  • New hard drive won't install in my macbook pro 13"

    Hi everyone
    I have recently been having problems with my mac book where I was constantly seeing the spinning beachball.  I had wiped the hard drive and was still having this problem so took my mac book to a "genius" at my local mac store who told me that the hard drive was faulty.  I was out of warranty so he advised me how to change the hard drive and recommended me to install a crucial 240gb M500 SATA 6Gbps 2.5 SSD.  I have now fit this into my mac book and have done internet recovery to allow me to get to Disk Utility.  My computer recognises the new Hard drive but when I got to erase the disk to enable me to install the operating system it just hangs attempting to unmount the hard drive.  I left it over night and nothing happened.  IS there something I have done wrong or is there another way of me installing the operating system onto the new hard drive?
    Many thanks in advance

    Hi Clinton:
    off topic: remembering your beautiful 980GB M500, i want to point to two things that I came repeatedly by:
    1. the M500 has more "overprovisioning" than most other Crucial  ssds ( I thought that you might want to hear that.
    2. Lately I hear more and more comments by respectable manufacturers that Trim in Mac OSX should be avoided: the "enabling" softwares are a bit crippled software and there are many timing faults at the file level communications, which are counterproductive.
    So I followed the recent comments of a OWC staff member:
    "One way to live without TRIM on OSX is just reduce the volume on the drive and leave the unallocated space...unallocated. If you have a 240GB drive I suggest removing 40GB.
    The drive will map this into the over provisioning and move the space in and out of use on the volume very quickly...almost faster than TRIM does
    Also remember the drives do have garbage collection and will look after themselves if given the chance too".
    So I restored the complete original IOAHCIFamily.kext ( by running a Combo Update) on all my SSDs, and with DiskUtility I dragged the bottom of the startup partition up for about 40GB and left it unallocated (no format).
    I remember that you did not install Trim (?), but to be sure I send this to you.
    Have fun my friend,
    Lex

  • Mac OS X 10.4.9 Update won't install on my MacBook Pro

    Everytime I try and install Mac OS X Update (Intel) 10.4.9, Java for Mac 10.4 release 5, Quicktime 7.1.5, and iTunes 7.1.1 (either sperately or at the same time, through System Update) I get this message after a period of time:
    'A networking error has occurred: timed out (-1001). Make sure you can connect to the Internet, then try again.'
    I am connected to the internet via the AirPort via Satelite.
    Any idea what could be wrong?

  • 5.0 won't install on my MacBook Pro. Is Adobe the problem?

  • VMWare Fusion 2 won't install on newest MacBook Pro 2,2 GHz

    Hi all,
    I switched to the newest MBP 2,2Ghz and wanted to install all the functionalities I had on my "old" MBP from scratch.
    And guess what...it didn't work!
    Meaning...WMWare fusion states that "it cannot be installed on this computer because it doesn't have an Intel processor" ?
    I know I am not the only person in the world that experienced this problem from Googling around...but I didn't manage to find a clear solution for this problem.
    No WMWare Fusion means that I can't install my old Windows partition anymore in the way I was used to...which I don't like.
    So I try to connect with someone who excountered the same problem AND found a solution.
    Anyone out there to help me out here ?
    Gr.

    Please post Fusion related quesitons on the VMWare forums. Apple Discussions only provide support for Apple products:

  • I have a flashing folder on a white screen with a question mark in the folder after installing an ssd to my MacBook Pro .. Any suggestions??

    Just hoping for some help from the title question. Thank you guys

    You need to format the SSD and install a version of OS X on it before it will boot. There are a number of ways you can go about this.
    Get an enclosure for your 'old' drive and boot from it with the SSD installed. OWC has an assortment of inexpensive enclosures. Boot from your 'old' drive and use Disk Utility to format the SSD as "Mac OS Extended (Journaled)" with a single GUID partition. Then use Carbon Copy Cloner to clone your old drive to your new. Select the SSD as your Startup Drive in System Preferences.
    Alternately, you can use Lion DiskMaker to create a bootable USB flash Drive (8GB minimum) or a dual-layer DVD if you've downloaded Mountain Lion and still have the "Install OS X Mountain Lion.app" in your Applications folder. If you've already purchased ML, you can simply redownload this file again and quit the application when it finishes downloading and begins the installation.
    Either method will work.
    Good luck,
    Clinton
