  • Photoshop CS6 will not launch on MacBook Pro. Adobe icon appears then disappears.

    On a macbook pro.photoshop will not open. i've tried everything all that happens is an adobe icon appears and then quickly disappears. i have photoshop cs6 suite for a little over a year now. no problems until today. please help - i have a project due tomorrow.

    Hello:
    I am sorry but I am a Windows user and so I am not sure I can help you. I do not know if you have enough time before your project is due but if you do not get an answer here you may want to just call Adobe. They have techs that can walk you through everything. They can take over your computer and fix it for you. They have done this for me many times when I have had problems and I have always been helped.
    I do not know if Mac is the same but have you tried going to your Program Files? Like... your C drive > whatever > whatever > program files? and then right + click to open it from there ...?? does Mac have something similar??
    I totally wish that I could help you more than this!! Best of luck and I really do hope you can get your project done or an extension!!

  • Icon appears for a second during start up and it disappears

    Hello, I just switched from PC to Mac after using PC for 15 years.
    I noticed that during login an icon appears on the right side of the dock for about 1 second and then it disappears. I don't recognize the icon but it has a pencil and protractor. I went to the start up folder and there is nothing there and also I removed everything in preference>accounts>login items. Everyone knows what it could be and how to fix it?
    Thanks

    Sounds like one of those right-hand icons can't find the correct icon at first. You can ignore it or reset the LaunchServices database using this one-liner in the Terminal.app (/Applications/Utilities/). Copy and paste it in and hit the return key, then restart:
    */System/Library/Frameworks/CoreServices.framework/Versions/A/Frameworks/LaunchS ervices.framework/Versions/A/Support/lsregister -kill -r -domain local -domain system -domain user*

    Adobe Creative Cloud (Desktop) does not work properly. The application is blocked : it could not be launch neither stopped. I'm on MAC Yosemite OS, does anyone know how to remove it properly or to force its stop. It does not appear in the launched applications.

    I received no error message. The application was just trying to find applications unsuccessfully.
    I am using MAC OS 10.10.1
    I tried to uninstall the application  but it seems that a kind of deamon is still installed thus providing me to reinstall properly. Do you know where are the elements to remove in order to get my machine just like before ?
    Otherwise I would have to reinstall everything and this would be a pain.
    Thanks for your help.

  • Running cs4 w/mavericks. won't print from PS. Printer icon appears then disappears -

    This started recently. I think I was in the middle of setting up a custom size for my epson 2880 when something happened. Now when I try to use the photoshop controls printing command, I'll hit print, it will start to respond, the printer icon appears then disappears and then nothing happens. I can print from other apps, I use quad tone rip for b&w and am now printing color using color sync, I can also print from LightRoom, but no luck through PS.

    Has most recent drivers.
    Yes, it will print from a PDF – it will print from preview, Acrobat, Word, OpenOffice - Anything other than InDesign it seems!
    Tried deleting and re-installing printer. No change, unfortunately.

  • I download the new version. No Firefox icon appears to be dragged into the Applications folder. I am on a new Mac with the latest software.

    I downloaded the most recent version of Firefox as requested. No Firefox icon appears
    to drag into the Applications folder. I tried twice with no luck. The old version remains.
    I am on a new Mac. I will, when this works, be updating my older Mac as well.

    The thing in your download folder is a "disk image." You have to double-click it and it will place a white "disk" on your desktop. It should also open a window with a Firefox icon and your applications folder. Then you can drag it to the applications folder. When you are done drag that disk to the trash.

  • When I attach USB flashdrive to my new Mac Air no icon appears.  I just finished downloading pictures off of old mac and that one worked as expected.The new computer doesn't show anything but when I pull USB out pompts message improper eject. Any ideas?

    When I attached my USB flashdrive to my new Mac Air no icon appears and the same when I attached my new superdrive.  I just finished downloading pictures off of my old Mac and that one worked as expected. The new computer doesn't show anything but when I pull the USB flashdrive out, a message prompts me with an improper eject notice. Any ideas on why no icon (a disc) appears and how can I get it to?

    Open Finder preferences, click on the General icon in the toolbar. Check the boxes for what you want displayed on the Desktop. Click on the Sidebar icon in the toolbar and do the same for what you want displayed in the sidebar.

  • Firefox icon appears on mac desktop every time app starts

    every time i use firefox on my mac, a firefox drive icon appears on the desktop. I have installed the program properly and a firefox icon is in the apps folder as well as in the dock. Yet, each time I am finished using it, I have to quit the program and then "eject" the icon from the desktop to get rid of it. How can I prevent this icon from appearing every time I open firefox? (I have tried uninstalling and re-installing to no avail)
    == This happened ==

    Make sure that Firefox gets installed properly.
    Open the DMG file and drag to Firefox program to the application folder on your hard drive.
    You shouldn't double-click the Firefox application to run it from the disk image, but drag it out of the DMG folder instead.

  • Launch Pad Icons appear small on my MacBook Air

    How do I change the size of my icons in the Launch Pad. My icons appear a lot smaller then the icons I've seen on the new MacBook Airs at the Apple stores.

    There's not a setting to change the size, they should autosize for an 8 x 5 matrix that fills the screen.

  • TS3274 apple icon appears but ipad not responding then the icon disappears to black screen what do i do

    my Ipad is not responding the icon appears then disappears to a black screen then appears again whats going on, what do i do

    Reboot the iPad by holding down on the sleep and home buttons at the same time for about 10-15 seconds until the Apple Logo appears - ignore the red slider if it appears on the screen - let go of the buttons. Let the iPad start up.
    If that fails to start the iPad, you will need to restore the device. Read this all the way to the end and take note of Recovery Mode. You may need it.

    Dude or hot-spur,
    Not fishy at all!!!! You really think I would have taken any more of my time to post a bogus rant? We'll no, it is unfortunately all true. I want to hear from anyone who is experiencing such problems not anyone else that wants to put there two cents in. I really don't need anymore hate or negativity. Just people's experiences because I feel like I am the only one having so many problems. Thank you
    Yes, I have had some unfortunate bad luck to have so many problems at the same time, but some of them are just things you cannot do on the new OS.
    Thank you again
