MacBook Pro/Yosemite problems with Adobe CS4

I have a new MacBook Pro and Adobe CS4. Whenever I try to open any of the CS4 programs, I get an error message that I need to download legacy Java SE 6 runtime. I have a newer version of Java (8), but I still get the message. I attempted to download and install the SE 6, but my computer won't let me, because I have the newer one. Any ideas?

Hi Alex H
I am also trying to install my CS4 onto my new Macbook Pro (with Yosemite). I downloaded the Java successfully however, now I am getting the "Error 6 message".
It says:
Please help!!
Many Thanks

New MacBook Pros not compatible with Adobe CS6

I am having constant crashes with inDesign cs6 on new MacBook Pro. Lost a lot of the functionality of my printer—NO LONGER DUPLEXES! That was the purpose of that printer. Anyone with similar experiences. Shame on Apple for not coordinating efforts with Adobe before release!!!

Shame on Adobe. Have you posted in their support forum?

Macbook Pro bluetooth problems with a Bose sound dock 10

So a while ago I bought my Bose Sound dock 10 and the bluetooth between both my Mac and iPhone has been great. But then OS X Mavericks came out and I start having issues with connecting through bluetooth for the first time. I have to go to the Sound dock and remove the bluetooth port, then put it back in, then try to connect from my Mac again but then having to do the process again. I know this isn't a fault with the Bose product itself as my iPhone 4 connects with absolutely no problems running iOS 7 and as do other Apple products that my family owns.
I have a 13", Mid 2012 MacBook Pro running OS X 10.9.3 with bluetooth version 4.2.4f1 13674 (v131 c5492)

@Matthew9391 - here is a great link that helped me get my Bose Sound dock 10 going.

MacBook Pro sleep problems with Vista SP1

Has anyone faced sleep problems on a MacBook Pro after installing Vista SP1?
I run Boot Camp 2.0 with the latest update from Apple.
IDT finally issued a compatible Vista driver for my Sigmatel audio.
I was very happy for the first time running Vista on my Apple when I had the stupid idea to upgrade to SP1.
After days of troubleshooting with Windows support it is obvious that SP1 and my MacBook Pro are incompatible for some obscure reasons. The latest time I tried SP1 was through Windows Update, which means that Windows detected no compatibility issues, such as drivers.
I suspect Apple-in-sight driver without any evidence, just a hint.
Any ideas?
Thanks

Hibernation seems iffy. Have you tried disabling hibernation? and when you say sleep, what happens? won't wake or what?
Normally I don't recommend resetting NVRAM or SMU but for sleep you might want to.
And yes, trying to rule out why can be difficult. But I would not blame SP1. Maybe BC 2.1.
Do you have a book dealing with Vista? or looked for articles or forums that deal with Vista? There is one for Vista64 - assume you have 32-bit though. Google is often best way to find things in Apple discussions or knowledge base, too.

IMessage order on MacBook Pro and problems with iPhone iMessage

Hi,
I use my iMessage on my MacBook Pro and on my iPhone. In iMessages on my Mac I have it set to use two addresses, my phone number and my icloud email. I have the same on my phone.
When I receive a message it is ordered correctly on my phone with the most recent being shown last and the oldest I need to scroll to the top. But, on my MacBook when I open messages they seem to be ordered all over the place and I need to scroll up sometimes and I find that the most recent is sandwiched between two others in no real time order. Can anyone help me understand and correct this problem.
Also the other day, my iPhone imessage started playing up and randomly ordered the messages ut it has now reverted to the correct format. Please can someone help?
Thanks
Matt

Based on information in another answer I tried the following ...
After doing what blueno suggested I did have to reboot. I then had to provide my password lots of times when I logged in. That still didn't work so I logged out of my iCloud account in Message and logged back in, repaired, and it worked!
This is what I did:
1) Open Key Chain Access ( go to Applications>Utilities)
2) Select Login at the top left side under Keychains
3) Select All Items on the lower left side under Category
4) Search for entries of IDS.
5) Highlight and delete all entries that has IDS.
6) Search for entries of FaceTime
7) Highlight and delete all entries of FaceTime
8) Search for entries of Messages (I also found entries containing Message (singular, not plural), but didn't delete these.)
9) Highlight and delete all entries of Messages
10) Reboot!
11) Log back in and when requested log back into iCloud account (I got asked for the password multiple times)
12) Log out of iCloud account in iMessage (Not sure if this is needed)
13) Log back into iCloud account in iMessage.
14) On iPhone in Settings/Messages/Text Message Forwarding turn off forwarding to my iMac.
15) Turn Text Message Forwarding back on for my iMac (re-pairs and I entered the new number)
16) Could send text messages from my iMac!!!!!
But it was short lived. One message was sent using SMS (that should have gone through using iMessage and then back to the same error message. So I am back to square one.

MacBook Pro Retina Problems with Headphone jack, Speakers, USB Port, MagSafe 2 and the hard drive

I took my MacBook Pro Retina 2.6GHz i7 to the genius bar to have the headphone jack looked at. I was told they could easily fix it but had to order the part. That day I took it home and returned to the store once I was notified that the part arrived so I could drop it off for repair. 3 days after I dropped my computer off with the genius bar I missed a phone call and returned to my iphone with a new voicemail. It said something like this, "Hello Tim, I just wanted to let you know that we replaced the headphone jack but it turned out not to be the problem and the problem was actually with the logic board. Don't worry though, we went ahead and replaced that for you, however, after that was done, the speakers stopped working but the headphone jack is fixed. We have to order new speakers to put in your computer b/c we don't have those on hand either."
Long story short, they fixed the speakers but, "had to order another part to repair the USB port." So I am waiting for that to be repaired but the dang AC Power to the actual computer does not work now!!! It's not the magsafe 2 charger that I have or the outlets I tried it in b/c I tried multiple chargers and multiple outlets. I am very frustrated! I have been without my computer for almost 2 weeks and still have to take it in at least twice more to get the power working this weekend and then again next week to (hopefully) get the USB port working.
At what point should I ask for a new computer or a refund? I have been using Apple Computers my whole life, I have had 8 different mac laptop models and have not had a problem until this computer. I am very frustrated with the support I have received from Apple as a whole.

Contact Apple Customer Relations and let them know that you're not happy. With the logic board replacement, everything else should have been evaluated and fixed at the same time. It sounds as if you just got a lemon. You could plead your case for a replacement unit, I would think, since your machine is being 'replaced' piecemeal...
Good luck,
Clinton

Macbook Pro sleep Problems with Time Machine and Time Capsule

I recently installed a time capsule as a Router and a Time Machine backup device for 2 macs in the house.
Unfortunately, I found that my 2011 macbook pro 15' updates the time machine backups even when the lid is closed and in sleep.
When I wake the macbook pro, it hangs and I have to reset the mac to restart.
This did not happen when I was using a firewire hard drive with the time machine.
My question is:
Is there a way to prevent the time machine to backup when the macbook pro is in sleep mode?
My mac is not equiped with power nap so it is not suppose to be doing this.
Thanks
Other info: OS Mountain Lion, regular hard drive, 8 Gig Memory

Edwin,
I assume that since the repair of the sparsebundle failed you still cannot open the sparsebundle in Finder and get the message:
The following backups could not be opened:
Imac of E.sparsebundle because there are no activatible filesystems
If the sparsebundle cannot be opened in Finder, then the chances that Time Machine can open them are nil in my opinion. Time Machine, in effect is just going to open the sparsebundle as Finder is attempting to dot, then it gives you a fnacy display, but the underlying issue with the sparesbundle is the same for both methods of access.
Do you, by chance hav a bootable backuo of your Snow Leopard system?
If so can you access the TM backups with it??
You didn't change the Time Capsules Network Password did you?? see this.
I looked to see if I could find anythng about the error codes you mentioned in your original post and so far can;t find anything about them.

Macbook Pro 2011 problem with windows via bootcamp

I have macbook pro early 2011 and my disk drive not working.
I tried to install windows via bootcamp by an external disk drive but it failed to boot from the windows install disk.
how can i install it?

The Snow Leopard Windows drivers are on your Snow Leopard install disk. There is no download for Windows drivers and Snow Leopard.
You should include your computer model and year in your posts. Answers may vary depending on your hardware.
XP is not supported on newer Apple computers. You should install Windows 7.

MacBook Pro 2011: Problems with logging in

When my MacBook is starting and I am trying to login to my account, there's only the aurora background without the dock or anything else. I can move the mouse and it seems that I am already logged in but I can't see my harddrive, dock or even the menubar. The only way to turn it off is to push the on/off button once but I could also restart it or log out. This seems to be normal. I don't need any force quits. I only don't see my harddrive, programs, dock basically everything exept my mouse and the default aurora background.
I rebooted from the system DVD and now it works but I'm afraid of getting this issue again in the future.
If there's anybody out who has the sam issue and solved it, please tell me!
I am using a MacBook Pro 2011
Quadcore i7 2,3 GHz
750 GB Harddrive
8 GB RAM
Thanks in advance everybody!

As always maintain a backup or two of your data on a external powered drive(s)
Some do one TimeMachine and one "hold option" Bootable clone using something like Carbon Copy Cloner or Superdupers.
The OS and programs can be replaced, but the user data is unique and valuable media, can't be.
Drives are cheap, only $120 or so per 1TB. No reason not to backup data.

Font Problems with Adobe CS4 since Update on 10.6.4

Since my Update on 10.6.4 the Font List in Adobe InDesign und Illustrator don't show the all Fonts. Font Library works without any Problems. Support from Adobe Hotline was drunk. Who can help me?

Try this-get Onyx- a free utility app...then do a font cache empty. Then reboot. If that doesnt work try throwing out illustrator prefs. I find that after system upgrades that the caches are messed up especially fonts. You do know that BEFORE AND AFTER a system update Apple recommends that you boot from system disk and repair permissions-right?

Macbook Pro Retina issues with adobe flash

I just updated adobe flash to 11.7.700.225 and now I'm having issues it doesn't matter what browser it is, Safari, Firefox, or chrome, that certain sites, such as facebook and instagram it'll give me an error, like it's not safe or something. It was fine earlier today before I updated flash and now I'm having issues, and I'll have to remove the cookies for any of these sites and it's constantly annoying, I was wondering if anyone else is having these issues.

Nope! Can't say that I have. Besides, it doesn't make a difference if anyone is experiencing this problem. The important thing is that it is happening to you.
Where did you update FP from? Also, did you do the following?Adobe strongly recommends that you first uninstall any previous version of Flash Player, using the uninstaller:
http://kb.adobe.com/selfservice/viewContent.do?externalId=tn_14157
Follow the instructions closely, such as quitting ALL applications first before installing. Repair permissions and restart your computer after the installation is completed.

MacBook Pro Keyboard problems with shift and enter

would really appreciate help here. neither of the shift keys works, as you can see. the enter key doesn't do anything either. some of the function keys are also not working but i'm less concerned by those.
i activated the keyboard viewer and can see that the key between the right command key and the left arrow key now acts as the enter key. however the shift keys don't register at all.
i'm pretty sure the keys all worked when i first bought the computer in november. also keys work normally when i use the wireless keyboard.
i get the problems whether the wireless keyboard is connected or not.
does anyone know the answer to this problem - it's also annoying not having access to the question mark or any of the smbols above numbers - caps lock doesn't give you access...

If the problem is the same one I have and many others have expressed, it's the small gold ribbon found beneath the battery. It seems that lots of them are failing, although Apple won't acknowledge the problem and the fix is expensive (~$300).
To find out if it is the problem, remove the battery (with the computer plugged in and powered on), press down on the small cable, and see if the keyboard/mouse become responsive. Some people have taped the cable with success, but mine only works with constant hard pressure. So, it's been retired as a laptop and has essentially become a desktop with a USB cable/mouse.

Hi
I've a big problem with adobe acrobat reader XI pro and I hope you can help me.
The problem is; when I past copied text from some pdf books (not all of them) it past symbols only! wherever I past it! and even if I coped that text from another pdf reader (adobe pdf reader, internet browsers, ...etc.).
This problem started to happen since yesterday when I installed adobe acrobat reader XI pro to try it before I buy it, and before that when I was using the free adobe pdf reader I was totally able to copy any text from any pdf and past it anywhere with nothing wrong.
What can I do?
thank you a lot.

There is no product called Adobe Acrobat Reader Pro. There is
- Adobe Acrobat Pro ($$)
- Adobe Reader (free)
Which do you have? And are you a programmer?

I've recently been given a macbook pro from uni, with lots of adobe software on. I want to pair it with my iMac which has music etc and is it possible to get the software to the imac and the files to the macbook?Giving me the best of both :-)

You would need the original installation disks or files for the Adobe software to get it onto your iMac, and having it on two computers may not be allowed by your university's licensing. Talk to whoever issued the MacBook.
As to the music, just copy it over to the MacBook, either via Home Sharing, file sharing, or an external storage medium (hard drive, USB flash drive, etc.).
Regards.
