Linux crash and reinstall???

Hello to everyone. I have a question. Is it true that if Linux (anykind) crashes then you have to reinstall it again to get it to work??

You'd have a bit of a problem with that if you'd done this though:
# rm -rf /bin

CS 5.5 was crashing and reinstall will not take my serial number

Hello,
I was having many crashing issues on CS5.5 with Yosemite so I decided to download the trial again and reinstall. Now after the install, it will not take my serial number, even though it is listed in my adobe account history. HELP!!!!!
Also, everytime I try and open a file in photoshop cs5, it crashes. I get a GPU warning sometimes as well in Yosemite.
Thanks,

PC crash and reinstalling itunes

I had a computer crash and had to put the computer back to factory settings. Because of this I had to download itunes again. Now the library is gone and I get the message that the iphone is not in synch with my itunes account. What do i do? I dont want to reset my iphone

It has always been very basic to always maintain a backup copy of your computer for this very occasion. Use your backup copy to put everything back.
If for some reason you have failed to maintain a backup copy, not good, then you can transfer itunes purchases form the iphone: File>Devices>Transfer Purchases

Need to re-download PSE9 and PRE9 following crash and reinstall of Windows 7. But the programs aren't listed on my Adobe "Orders" page (from which I would download) but are on my list of products. What do I do to get the downloads?

Following a crash I had to wipe my "C" drive and re-install Windows 7. I want to reinstall Photoshop Elements 9 and Premier Elements 9. Both programs are listed on my products page on the Adobe Website, but not on the "orders" page (from which I would normally download programs I've bought from Adobe). How do I get them downloaded?

Downloads available:
Suites and Programs: CC | CS6 | CS5.5 | CS5 | CS4 | CS3
Acrobat: XI, X | 9,8 | 9 standard
Premiere Elements: 12 | 11, 10 | 9, 8, 7

I have tried to run as admin - without success. Before thr crash it runs perfectly.
What is the problem - and how to solve it?
I run Windows 8 PRO
Thanks for help, Uli

hi kglad,
thanks for the help. The thread http://forums.adobe.com/thread/783362 contained the right hint: the group policy. Now it works. Again thanks.

So many problems! Crashes and reinstall help?!

Hi everyone! I'm pretty much hopeless in technology so any feedback will be appreciated!
I have a MacBook pro 13' from late 2011. After I updated to Maverick, it started crashing frequently so within a month I updated it to Yosemite thinking it would help. The crashes got worse (like every hour) and when I took it in, they said it was a kernel panic. They deleted the program they thought was the culprit. However the crashes continued. I gave up and decided to wipe the entire drive and start fresh.
But now my original OS X Lion won't install due to an error. It says it cannot be installed at this time and I, being too impatient, did not back up anything into time machine before wiping the drive. Do I have to install Lion again before installing Yosemite?
I'm wondering if I can recover from this Mac OS X Base System on the Disk Utility? I'm so confused...
I'm abroad in South Korea right now and the nearest Apple store is in Japan (which I visited for my kernel panic problem). I think they have an authorized retailer here but not sure of the services they offer for software problems.
Any advice or solutions? Thank you in advance!
Sincerely,
-A sad graduate student who can't do her homework without Mac
*also my mac does not have a recovery hard drive

When I pull up the About This Mac tab, it has a picture of Snow leopard on a CD....i have a feeling that was my original OS. If I deleted everything, does this mean I must repurchase the software? =(
You need the SYSTEM DVDs that originally came w/the comp. If you do not have them,
you can get replacement System Install & Restore CD/DVDs from Apple's Customer Support - in the US, (800) 767-2775 - for a nominal S&H fee. You'll need to have the model and/or serial number of your Mac available.
If you're not in the US, you may need to go through the regional Apple Store that serves your location to find the contact number. Here's a list of links to all of those - http://store.apple.com/Catalog/US/Images/intlstoreroutingpage.html Another resource: International Support Phone #s.

'IOUSBFamily was not able to enumerate a device' HD crash and reinstall

About a week ago, my wife's PowerBook G4 suffered a fatal HD problem...we have all been there...(click click click buzz). Seeings its well beyond its warrantee plus the fact I am fairly handy, I took it upon myself to do the HD replace. Despite carpal tunnel from the 27 screws I had to remove to get the old drive out, the install went rather well. The new drive was in, I booted from the Leopard CD and within 2hrs had a working system...so I thought.
Since my wife kept no backups (despite me telling her too AND the fact this has happened before), I decided to use one of my external WD Passport drives as a Time Machine backup drive for her. Only, instead of recognizing the drive, I get one of several errors in dmesg:
-> IOUSBFamily was not able to enumerate a device.
-> IOHIDSystem: Seize of IOHIDEventDriver failed.
The device is never seen from. If I put my ear next to it, I can hear it wizz up to speed, then click, slow to a stop, wizz up to speed, click, slow to a stop. It does this over and over.
The other weird tidbit is that it seems to only effect mass storage devices. On the right hand USB she has the USB hub plug for the 20" Cinema display, and into that a 5-port USB 2.0 hub. Attached to that is a USB Wacom Intuous 2 tables, a WD 500gb HD, an HP printer, and an Epson printer. In System Profiler, I can clearly see the Cinema hub, the tablet, and both printers, but the WD 500gb drive is missing. Same holds true if I plug the Passport in. Also, she has a 196gb Firewire drive plugged in through the Cinema display that works fine. Also, plugging either USB external drive into my MacBook Pro works fine.
So far I have tried repeatedly booting and booting off the Leopard DVD. I am about to try resetting the PRAM. Does anyone else know what I can try, or perhaps knows whats causing only the USB storage devices to not show up? I am really hoping this is not a problem with the internal USB components.

I believe this could in fact be part of the issue. I first had the bus powered WD Passport plugged into a 5-port hub that was plugged into her Cinema display. I then tried to rule out the 5-port hub by plugging directly into the Powerbook G4. When this didn't work, I just assumed something was wrong with the drivers/kernel since both the attempts yielded the same result. Plugging the drive directly into the Cinema Display solved the problem. Its now mounted and ready to rock.
The only other thing that's confusing me now, however, is why the WD 500gb MyBook drive isn't working. It too is plugged into the 5-port USB hub, but its also self-powered through a power brick. Its also plugged into the same 5-pot USB hub that the two printers are using (an HP PCS-1100 and an Epson 1280). The printers are working, the drive is not. I am going to try to dig up the power brick for the USB hub to see if that might help.
Thanks for helping me figure this out.

Since I upgraded to 7.01 (linux xubuntu) firefox seems to crash but only when on pages that have something to do with Flash. I purged flash and reinstalled and this seemed to fix it, but it's happening again now. Is there something I can do to fix this?

I have Linux Xubuntu.
I had 11.04, but upgraded to 11.10.'''bold text'''
I never had a problem with firefox until I upgraded to firefox 7. I've always made changes to about:config, and have gone through my changes and none are related to this.
I've just checked about:crashes and I've had 34 crashes since upgrading on 11.10.11
I seemed to fix it on the 13th, as it didn't crash until the 17th, and this was done through purging flash, and then reinstalling the necessary packages.

I fixed this problem by turning off hardware acceleration. At the time I also downgraded my flash to 10 (instead of 11).
This option isn't available any more. But turning off hardware acceleration has seemed to fix it.

Officially you don't. Your i-device was not designed for unique storage of your media. It is not a backup device and media transfer was planned with you maintaining a master copy of your media on a computer which is itself properly backed up against loss. Syncing is one way, computer to device, updating the device content to the content on the computer, not updating or restoring content on a computer. The exception is iTunes Store purchases which can be transferred to a computer.

iTunes Store: Transferring purchases from your iOS device or iPod to a computer - http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1848 - only purchases from iTunes Store
For transferring other items from an i-device to a computer you will have to use third party commercial software. Examples (check the web for others; this is not an exhaustive listing, nor do I have any idea if they are any good):

no crash ids since this is version 3.6, the only version that doesn't crash, and I have to use Firefox for work stuff.
I have submitted over a hundred crash reports and included my email, but no one has ever contacted me with any help. This has been going on for weeks. I have been forced to use an outdated version of FF because no one has bother to get back to me. I would be happy to update to 14 and start the crash cycle again if someone wants to give me some suggestions I haven't tried already.
BTW, no font conflicts or RAM problems, (someone else's issue)

Maybe you did't understand my previous statement. There are no crashes in FF 3.6, There is no previous evidence FF 14 was ever here, I completely uninstalled all trace of Firefox, no app data, no preferences, no cache. I will upgrade to FF14 so I can send IDs,
so here ya go.

Windows error: iTunes crashes (uninstall and reinstall does not work)

Hello all.
I (and another user) have had a problem with iTunes crashing when trying to open it. Windows just generates the typical vague error message that explains nothing as to what the problem is. Uninstalling and reinstalling did not work, and using the "Repair" option did not work either.
This was the solution. Hope it works for you. Cheers.
C ;o)
Here are the steps, some might be redundant, but still follow them to try and get iTunes to work.
1. *Extremely important* Close the QuickTime launcher in the tray on the right side of your Windows TaskBar (right-click on the blue QuickTime "Q" logo next to where you have the time and date and select "exit".) The QuickTime logo should disappear from the tray.
2. Go to where your iTunes library folder is, copy it and put it elsewhere on yoour hard-drive. This is where you asked your iTunes to point to and keeps the full repository of the files sync'ed to your iPod. If you don't do this, you will have to re-create the full library of all the music and files you have put into iTunes.
3. Unistall iTunes and reboot your PC.
4. Go to c:\Program Files\Quicktime and delete this whole folder.
5. Go to c:\Windows\System 32 and: delete the Quicktime FOLDER there; then (ii) scroll down and delete all other QuickTime related files (there should be 5-10 of them, I didn't count, some will have a name like QuickTMvr whatever).
6. Empty Recycle Bin.
7. Reboot your PC.
8. Go back to Apple Website and download: iTunes, and (ii) QuickTime installation only (without iTunes).
9. Install QuickTime FIRST (use newly downloaded version)! Check it works OK by opening it.
10. Close QuickTime lanucher from tray, as explained above in step 1.
11. Install iTunes (use the newly downloaded version).
12. Open iTunes. If it opens fine (clap your hands and say "hurray", and actually I said out loud to my PC, "Please work" and it did - I don't know if this step helped at all. ;o) ), then close iTunes FIRST BEFORE DOING THE NEXT STEP. Go to where the new iTunes (and library) folder is, rename the new iTunes folder (as you might notice when/if you open iTunes, that it is all blank), and copy the old iTunes folder (from step 2) to the same location. Re-open iTunes. It should be the way it opened the last time.

Btw.
Don't forget that, from my experience, most iTunes errors comes from malfunctioning instances of QuickTime.

Hi bodegakc,
If you have the serial number then please use the below mentioned link to download the product you are looking for .
CS5.5
Also before installing Please go to Applications-->Utilities--> Adobe installers and if there is any uninstaller for CS5.5 , you can remove it and do a fresh install.
You can also use creative cloud cleaner tool before installing.
Use the CC Cleaner Tool to solve installation problems | CC, CS3-CS6

Pages crashes when opening any document on iPad 3 Latest version. I tried everything I could find on the net and finally deleted Pages from my device and reinstalled it. Still when I try to create a new document or open a document it just crashes out.

Try this:
Make sure IOS is updated to latest version
Reboot device by pressing both the home button and sleep/wake (power) buttons at the same time for 10-15 seconds until the apple logo appears on the screen, then let go.
If that doesn't work then reset the device by going to settings/general/reset/reset all settings
