None of my major apps will launch

Hi! I'm getting the EPIC_APP will not launch problem trying to launch Acrobat, so I try to launch Photoshop, Dreamweaver, Flash, etc., get the License Agreement screen, accept it, it goes away, and nothing more happens (incl. no indication in Task Manager that it has started). I have a working internet connection (obviously, or I wouldn't be able to submit this question), but could it be a firewall issue anyway? If not, what gives? It's a fresh install of Adobe MC CS3 on a Toshiba Sattellite L305-S5933 running 32 bit Windows Vista Home Premium SP1 w/ 3GB of RAM. Please help: I'm trying to use Acrobat to edit my 1040 and, obviously, time is of the essence! :-( Thanks!

None of my CC apps will launch, and CC desktop is nowhere to be found.

Yesterday everything was working fine. Today I was working in Premiere, it froze up and I quit. I tried to relaunch and the app just bounced in the dock.
The CC desktop icon is gone from my tool bar (Mac). I tried to launch it from the App folder but when I double click it there is no response. I then went to the creative cloud web portal and as a test tried to install a new app. I clicked 'Download' and nothing happened. I then went back to my local CC desktop app and tried to uninstall, but it told me to "Quit the program and try again." So it's open? But it's nowhere to be found, and even the adobe's web portal doesn't know it exists and can't initialize a simple download.
Basically, any and every single thing associated with CC, the apps and desktop client, even the website, is not working. Some apps just never open, others get as far as a blank GUI then freeze up.
I'm on a deadline for a client. Please advise?

Please Update CC App from following link:

Let us know if it works.

probably nothing helpful. migrating adobe apps doesn't always work, and if it doesn't work you're better off uninstalling, cleaning and reinstalling per, Use the CC Cleaner Tool to solve installation problems | CC, CS3-CS6

Try restoring from a backup. Connect the iPhone to your computer, launch iTunes. Right or control click the iPhone under Devices in the source list then click: Restore from Backup.

PS and LR CC, neither app will launch...

Just bought and installed PS and LR via CC both apps installed and are in the correct win dir. Neither app will launch (tho PS does very quickly flash the splash screen before closing). I have tried the fix at http://helpx.adobe.com/photoshop/kb/cc-applications-crash-immediately-launch.html, it did not work. I done a system restore and went trough the whole CC install process again, but still LR nor PS will open.I have tried disconnecting from the internet before launch but also with no success. Have updated graphic the card driver and have all the latest windows drivers installed. Have spent many hours now trying to find a fix. Any ideas?

Dual video problems - Do you have dual graphics adapters?
Go to the Windows Control Panel and select Hardware and Sound and then select Device Manager... In Device manager you click the + sign to the left of Display Adapters... and see if 2 are listed

None of our CS6 programs will launch

I cannot launch any or our nonprofit's Adobe CS6 products all of a sudden. I am not sure if it had anything to do wiith a huge bunch of Windows Updates I had to preform yesterday... like 23 updates I believe. I thought it was only an Adobe AcrobatX Pro problem since suddenly I could not view online PDF's in my browsers. I ran the fix I found online for that from step #1 here; http://helpx.adobe.com/creative-suite/kb/acrobat-failed-launch-30-days.html
I ran AcroFix three times. It finally decided it would work on Firefox at least so I thought all was solved. Now none of outr CS6 programs will launch. So I looked down to step #3 from that same link called Solution 3: Reactivate Acrobat through another Suite product
It says to;
Launch a CS6 Suite product.
Choose Help > Deactivate. Follow the onscreen prompts to deactivate.
Close the application.
Launch the same CS6 Suite product again.
Accept the EULA.
Sign in with your Adobe ID to register trial.
Restart the application.
The problem is none of the CS6 applications will open! I get an error on every one that says; the program has stopped working and ut checks fr a problem, the says Windows will close the program and notify me if a solution is available. BLAH!!!!
What do we do now?
If it involves the upates I can reverse them or do a system restore if I hear back quickly enough,but Adobe needs to know and do something quickly because no way will I be alone. These were all updates to Windows x64 based systems that showed up on Novermber 14, 2013

My iPhone 5s restarts while charging and none of my downloaded apps will open

MMy iPhone 5s restarts every time I plug it in to charge. And none of my downloaded apps will open except for a few. I've restartedmy phone, deleted the apps then redownloaded them, ive reset my network settings, and even reset all of my settings in general. But nothing will work

Hello d.ashley.,
The troubleshooting steps detailed below can help stabilize your iPhone.
Verify that the Sleep/Wake button functions. If it does not function, inspect it for signs of damage. If the button is damaged or is not functioning when pressed, seek service.
Check if a Liquid Contact Indicator (LCI) is activated or there are signs of corrosion. Learn about LCIsand corrosion.
Connect the iPhone to the iPhone's USB power adapter and let it charge for at least ten minutes.
After at least 30 minutes, if:
The home screen appears: The iPhone should be working. Update to the latest version of iOS if necessary. Continue charging it until it is completely charged and you see this battery icon in the upper-right corner of the screen . Then unplug the phone from power. If it immediately turns off, seek service.
The low-battery image appears, even after the phone has charged for at least 20 minutes: See "iPhone displays the low-battery image and is unresponsive" symptom in this article.
Something other than the Home screen or Low Battery image appears, continue with this article for further troubleshooting steps.
If the iPhone did not turn on, reset it while connected to the iPhone USB power adapter.
If the display turns on, go to step 4.
If the display remains black, go to next step.
Connect the iPhone to a computer and open iTunes. If iTunes recognizes the iPhone and indicates that it is in recovery mode, attempt to restore the iPhone. If the iPhone doesn't appear in iTunes or if you have difficulties in restoring the iPhone, see this article for further assistance.
If restoring the iPhone resolved the issue, go to step 4. If restoring the iPhone did not solve the issue, seek service.
My issue is still not resolved. What do I do next?
Contact Apple Support.

None of my apps will launch

I am a new Ipad user. Loaded numerous apps last night and suddenly none of them will launch. I have a 16 GB wifi Ipad. Am I missing something?

If it's happening on all the apps that you've downloaded from the App Store, but not the Apple built-in ones, then try downloading any free app from the store (as that appears to reset something) and then re-try them - the free app can then be deleted.
If it's happening on all apps including Apple's then try closing them all completely and then see if they work when you re-open them : from the home screen (i.e. not with any app 'open' on-screen) double-click the home button to bring up the taskbar, then press and hold any of the apps on the taskbar for a couple of seconds or so until they start shaking, then press the '-' in the top left of each app to close them, and touch any part of the screen above the taskbar so as to stop the shaking and close the taskbar.
If that doesn't work then you could try a reset : press and hold both the sleep and home buttons for about 10 to 15 seconds (ignore the red slider), after which the Apple logo should appear - you won't lose any content, it's the iPad equivalent of a reboot.

None of my Apps will launch now, i'm trying to restore - HELP!,

Hi,
I accidentally re-installed OSX from the install disk. I'll skip the details of why, i was trying to do a custom install and get something off the install disk,.. anyway,
i purchased Data Rescue II and it recovered everything but it does not re-install. It instead writes it all to external drive.
Now my Apps will not launch, or they are running in Demo mode. I"m looking the the directories but it's not obvious how to fix this. Does any know how?
Is there a recovered system file that tells the OS to run the apps properly.

This is kind of a continuation of [this other topic|http://discussions.apple.com/thread.jspa?threadID=1916430&tstart=0] so others may wish to refer to it.
I have not seen any such lists in a long time (maybe since OS7 days). Some applications install literally thousands of files and make more after you have run them. Honestly, the best thing to do is reinstall everything you can that will install on its own, OS, applications. After that you can use what they installed as indication of where special files such as preferences and lists you may have built actually belong.

None of my iWork apps will open.

I have a 21.5" iMac at work. It is running Mac OS X Mavericks (10.9.5). The computer is brand-new; I received it at the beginning of September, and it was purchased specifically for me so it is the latest model iMac. I use a combination of iCloud and Google Cloud Drive to store the majority of my documents and sync them between home and work.
Today I tried to open all three iWork applications and none of them would open - or, more accurately, they wouldn't beyond the "new documents" screen. The same thing happened/happens with all three. I would go to Launchpad or the applications window and hit the app; I would get the "iCloud for Pages/Numbers/Keynote" screen. If I hit new document, then I get the template chooser, but when I choose "blank" (or any template - it doesn't matter) and then hit Choose, nothing happens. I can do this 4-5 times in a row and nothing happens. If I then switch to use another app, the iWork app will close spontaneously. The same thing happens if I hit cancel and then try to create a new blank document using the File menu in any iWork app.
If I try to open an existing iWork file, I get the message "[filename] cannot be opened." This happens regardless of whether I double-click the file within its folder or whether I try to open it directly from iWork using the menus. Even if I try to open a Microsoft Word document in Pages by right-clicking and selecting Open in...Pages, I get the same message. I don't have this problem with any other applications on my computer; when I go to the App Store, the applications show as installed on my computer.

I am having the same problem with my iWorks apps on my iPad (but not my iPhone). I am hopeful the update to iOS 7.0.3 will fix it. I have been searching this site for solutions but had not found anyone with the same problem until now. Thanks for the second post. It gives me hope!

None of my Apple apps will open

I think I may have screwed some things up when I tried to install Wineskins. I changed a couple of permissions, and now none of my Apple apps (Textedit, Preview, iBooks, Maps, etc...even Terminal) will launch. I've tried to go back and change things back to the way they were, with no luck. They don't launch if I sign in as a guest, or if I create a new user.
I've looked at similari
I'd appreciate any help anyone has to give!
Thanks,
Steve

My second paragraph was supposed to be: I've looked at similar issues people had when upgrading to Lion, but none of the solutions have worked.

Updated Yosemite and none of my Apple apps will open

After updating every Apple based app will not open. Safari, App Store, iTunes, and even Terminal. I don't know what do since I can't even open App Store to reinstall anything.

None of my CS6 apps will update now that I am using CC and the newest Adobe Manager

I had been using CS6 Master Suite for months then decided that I'd like to use the CC for which I purchased a membership. I have successfully downloaded, installed and ran several of the CC apps. I have the new CC Adobe Manager in place and have been notified that there are updates for both CC and CS6 apps. I have been able to update all CC apps but none of the CS6 apps are updating and giving me an error message: "Errors encountered during installation. (U44M1P7) More details.". I click on more details and am provided a finder window "Installers" and many "...log.gz" files. At that point I am unable to go any further for lack of knowledge. Can anyone here help?
