Macbook pro now says itunes not supported on this type of Mac. only change has been addition of Apple TV. how to fix?
My older macbook pro now says itunes not supported "on this type of Mac". Only change has been addition of Apple TV. The Apple TV remote is also controlling the Macbook. Is this the problem? How to fix?
Did you recently update OS X? The icon indicates you have a version of iTunes that is not compatible with the version of OS X you now have installed. The current version is Apple iTunes 11.0.2, and it's compatible with 10.6.8.

Downloaded latest iTunes update. Now iTunes won't open, and the error message says "You can't open the application iTunes because it is not supported on this type of Mac." I have been using this MAc since 2008. Any suggestions appreciated.
Welcome to Apple Support Communities
It's a common problem that some users have after installing the most recent iTunes. Download and install again iTunes 11.0.3 to solve that problem > http://support.apple.com/kb/DL1614 -
I just downloaded the new Mavericks operating sytem on my mid 2010 MacBook Pro, 17" 2.53GHz, Intel Core I5 machine. My IPhoto is no longer working at all, I'm getting an error message that says - "You Can't open the application "IPhoto" because it is not supported on this type of Mac". I also loaded Mavericks onto my other MacBook Pro 17", mid 2009 model and everything works fine. I would think that the newer Mac would easily work with IPhoto. Also, when I try to download from the App Store, it asks for my Apple ID and Password, I enter it, and then the little spinning color wheel just spins forever, with nothing ever happening. I tried downloading the IPhoto Upgrade but it never actually downloads, HELP!!!
What version of iPhoto do you have installed? Is if one of the versions shown as not compatible in this screenshot?
If it is then go to the App Store and download iPhoto 9.5. It will be free if you have an iPhoto 9 or later verson currently.

Had a recent crash on my macbook, was previously using OS 10.6 I think. Restored from recent Time Machine backup and updated to OS 10.8.2 and now I cannot open Logic Pro 9. I get a 'No entry' Icon and a not supported on this type of Mac message. I cannot update either as anything up to 9.1.1 tells me I don't need it yet 9.1.2 tells me I need an eligable Logic Pro Version was not found in applications.
All of my files are stored in a separate hard drive with only the actual app having been on my Macbook. Should I just reinstall?Hi
To run Mouitain Lion you need to update Logic.
For the updaters to work the Logic application must be:
a) Within the Applications folder, and not in any sub-folder
b) Named "Logic Pro" with no extra numbers or spaces

I am trying to open up my iTunes from my iMac. It says "You can't open the application iTunes because it is not supported on this type of Mac." What do I do? I've already force closed all other apps.
Well, obviously the problem isn't with the other apps, it's with the type of Mac you have. What type of Mac do you have?

Photoshop-not supported on this type of Mac-Late 2011 MacBook Pro
Photoshop refuses to open on my computer, a late 2011 model MacBook Pro. This particular computer is running OSX 10.8.3, has a 2.2 GHz Intel Core i7 processor, and 8 GB of RAM.
When I try to open it, I receieve a "not supported on this type of Mac" error. What's going on here? Creative Cloud is basically useless if it won't work such a recent computer.Does your Mac have a 64-bit processor?

My iPhone says "iTunes not supported in this country. I live in the USA. How do I fix this???
Ever since I downloaded the iOS 7, I have not been able to get into the iTunes Store on my phone. I have not tried to on my iPad 2 yet. Every time I go I the iTunes app it says "ITunes not supported in this country." I live in the USA and have never been outside of it with this phone. Please help. I am VERY frustrated.
Are you visiting a different country? Is your credit card or adobe ID registered to a different country?

"You can't open the application iTunes because it is not supported on this type of Mac"
Yesterday, Software Updater has installed something which required me to "close iTunes in order to complete the installation" - I can only assume it was an iTunes (or related) update?
Now when I try to open iTunes, a window appears, stating: "you can't open the application iTunes because it is not supported on this type of Mac".
I have a Macbook (late 08) and am running 10.6.8
I'm conscientious about keeping my software & apps up to date, so it should only be something very recent & I assume fairly minor...
Any ideas??To anyone else who may have experienced this problem (I doubt that I'd be the only one):
Over the past couple of days I have left my Macbook sitting idle for extended periods, put it to sleep, & also shut it down.
This morning I tried to reinstall the same download that didn't work a couple of days ago & it has been recognised, installed & seems to run just fine - playing right now I'm happy to say!
I suggest you try doing the same: ie. leave your machine sitting idle till it sleeps & shut it down, before you try the reinstall. -
You cannot open the application iTunes (11.1.4) because it is not supported on this type of Mac
After updating iTunes to 11.1.4 as suggested by automatic updates I get the message:
"You cannot open the application iTunes because it is not supported on this type of Mac"
Why did it let me do the update then?
How do I undo the uodate to iTunes?
This is on a Mac Mini running OSX 10.6.8 with 1GB memWhat processor do you have?
If it's a CoreDuo (as opposed to a Core2Duo), then you ave a 32 bit OS, and no... 11.1.4 won't run on a 32 bit OS.
=Downgrading from iTunes 11 to iTunes 10.7=
Back up your computer first, in case the wrong things happen.
Replace the iTunes 11 application with iTunes 10.7. I can't provide details on this since I do not have a newer computer. With mine it is very simple but I believe on newer computers iTunes has been integrated into the operating system. On mine I just go to my applications folder and drag iTunes to the trash. See below for possible suggestions on how to remove.
https://discussions.apple.com/message/20431349
Get iTunes 10.7. Apple does not keep many old version up on its web site. I always keep an iTunes installer on my archive drive so I can have access to old versions . This one is hidden but it is on an official Apple site:
iTunes 10.7 for OS X http://appldnld.apple.com/iTunes10/041-7195.20120912.d3uzQ/iTunes10.7.dmg
You will have to rescue your old iTunes library from your Previous Libraries folder and rename it iTunes Library.itl because a newer version of iTunes irreversibly updates your library file. See:
https://discussions.apple.com/mesage/20401436 - turingtest2 11/2012 post on rebuilding empty/corrupt library after upgrade/crash from previous iTunes library file.

Photoshop CS6 is not supported on this type of Mac (2012 MacBook Air)
Photoshop won’t launch on the latest MacBook Air 2012, OS 10.8.2, i7, 8GB. Installed the Adobe CS6 (Design/Web). All products work fine (although had to downgrade to Java6 to start Dreamweaver) but the PS icon is greyed out. When launching Photoshop CS6, I’m getting: You can’t open the application “Adobe Photoshop CS6” because it is not supported on this type of Mac”.
No idea what happend. I was installing the CS6 suite on a brand new MBAir. All software was fine, eg, DW, InDesign and so on. Only Photoshop failed. One strange thing was that the MBAir has Java 7 but when launching DW it asked me to install "newer" Java version (?). I did the SMC/PRAM reset. Then uninstalling and installing PS solved the issue.

CS6 After update, "not supported on this type of Mac."
Hi
On a fresh install of 10.6, I installed CS6 master collection. It was working fine till I ran the update and now it wont open but brings up the message "Not Supported on this type of mac".
I've tried it on 3 different machines, and I can remember having the same issue with CS5.5, but thought the upgrade to CS6 may resolve it. We need to have 10.6 on our machines as other software requires it. Is there another solution?
Thanks
http://forums.steampowered.com/forums/showthread.php?t=2287095How old is your Mac? if it is about 2006 or 2007, then it is considering to be painfully aging in days of Internet age.
That is the reason why I suggested - latest newest computer is highly recommended. Yes, I know it is expensive to invest. But the trade-off is that you get most out of more efficiency and faster workaround with fastest, new computers. I usually buy new laptop and Mac Pro every two years. My new current Mac Pro has 32 gb, a 12-core Intel processors. Loved it. Same with MacBook Pro 17 unibody - in about six months, I'll buy new MacBook Pro.. as far as I understand that Apple no longer offer 17" laptop. But that is ok.
The point is that it is a good idea to keep computer equipments to current as much as possible. It makes a lot sense. Because I use MacPro every day for my job with different hats role dealing with different responsibilities and functions and operating few businesses all together.
Anyway.. just some thought and some two cent tips and advice.
You might wonder why I had mentioned 'have a read' on Tech Specs FIRST before buying any kind apps. I had seen some issues for some customers - little did some of them know that they had 'aged' computer that doesn't meet the latest software's tech requirement. It is unfortunate situation when they realized that after they made a huge investment into software.
Not that I am assuming that you didn't see or read the Tech Spec requirement. Just a suggestion is all I can say. Hopefully this helps to clear up something...
Hope that things works out ok for you to run Dreamweaver app on your laptop. How big is your RAM memory? If it is only two, I suggest double it.
Best!

You can't open the application "..." because it is not supported on this type of Mac.
I migrated all files from OS 10.7 to OS 10.8 through time machine. However, I always see error packages like the following if I want to run some .pkg files.
You can't open the application "..." because it is not supported on this type of Mac.
But when I switch to a different account, then the .pkg files can be run. Therefore, I think that there might be something wrong with my account configuration files. But I don't know which one. Does anybody which one might cause the problem and how to fix it? Thanks!softwater wrote:
And both are on the same startup disk, right? Because, to be honest, it's hard to figure out how you could have this problem with both accounts on the same startup disk, so I just want to check that before we get too involved.
Assuming that's the case, the first thing I'd do is remove all those except Dropbox from the list, then restart the mac and test for the problem. If that doesn't solve it, run this free analytical tool and post the results back here so we can see if anything stands out:

"You can't open the application Safari because it is not supported on this type of Mac."
I vaguely remember some capability to rollback any updates. Is this true?
Where should I go from here?First you need to clear out some space on the startup volume. You should have at least 9 GB available. Then do as follows.
If you don't already have a current backup, back up all data, then reinstall the OS. You don't need to erase the startup volume, and you won't need your backup unless something goes wrong. If your Mac was upgraded from an older version of OS X, you’ll need the Apple ID and password you used to upgrade.
If you installed the Java runtime distributed by Apple and still need it, you'll have to reinstall it. -
Can't open LR4, not supported on this type of Mac
I just successfully installed LR4, however, it won't open the application because it says it is not supported on this type of Mac. I have a Intel MacBook Pro, OS 10.6.8, with 2 GB RAM, and enough HD space to load and run. I already have LR3 installed and it's up to date. What gives?

I have a similar issue with my personal MacBook Pro as it is using an Intel Core 2 Duo at 2.33 ghz. While it can run 64-bit applications I am not able to run Snow Leopard in 64-bit mode without doing unsupported, by Apple, modifications to the OS.
You might also find this document useful 64-bit OS and Adobe applications - http://helpx.adobe.com/creative-suite/kb/64-bit-os-applications.html and it might help explain why we are transitioning many of our applications to 64-bit. It is especially useful for applications which can make use of a lot of memory such as image editing and video editing/processing applications.
