Photshop CS3 no longer allowing use of shapes

Hello all,
i have 2 Mac OS X Tiger Machines running Creative Suite 3 Premium that are having different issues:
1. one of them will run fine for a while then reach a point of what i call saturation, wher it will not take any inputs. the only way to rid the issue is to restart the machine, but after a while it will do it again. Would reseting the Preferences in PS help???
2. the other machine that is acting up does not all the use of shapes anymore.
these may be cases what i need to wipe the machine and start fresh, but any help/advice would be very appreciated!
Thanks,
brad

Thank you for your reply Ann:
I have reset the Permissions file as well as 'All Tools.'
Yes, I run MacJanitor, YASU, and Preferential Treatment, at least once a month, but usually every other Week I run these programs.
We have 250GB HD's with about 200GB Free, with 2GB RAM, and no separate HD's with the exception of a 1 TB Time Capsule that the machines all connect to.
I have not created any new user accounts, but will try that if the act up again.
Thanks,
brad

Bought PS CS4 from ebay. After loading, message says serial number will no longer allow the program to function. What do I do now?

What Curt said. Then you might want to think twice in the future trying to get "too good to be true pricing".
Good luck.

ITunes no longer allowing use of remote app or recognizing remote speakers

Weird problem as all of this worked as of 24 hours ago. I am no longer able to share my music (either via the remote app or between two computers on the same local network) nor will iTunes recognize the existence of remote speakers (again, all worked fine as of yesterday).
I've made no changes to firewall, etc. I've confirmed the network is functioning, the Airport express is connected, all current versions, etc. Firewall allows incoming connections for iTunes. Further, i've tried:
1) Restarting iTunes, the iMac in question and the iPad
2) Using remote on two different devices
3) hard rebooting the airport connected to my stereo
4) reinstalling iTunes and remote
Home sharing is turned on however the iPad's remote app cannot find any libraries. When i try to add a library outside of home sharing, iTunes doesn't see any device trying to connect.
I'm well stumped. Anyone else finding this issue and are there any suggestions?

Same problem. I'm running itunes 10.1.2.17 under win 7.
Here's what I did to fix the problem. Basically you need to create a new exception in your firewall to allow itunes UDP communication.
control panel>system & security>Windows firewall.
Advanced settings>inbound rules
New Rule> Program > browse to C:\Program Files (x86)\iTunes and pick itunes.exe
Allow the connection>next>next
Give it a name like iTunesUDP.
Now click on your new rule "iTunesUDP" and select properties.
Click the protocals and ports tab.
under protocal type select UDP.
That should do it.
Let me know if it worked for you.

When i try to connect to my yahoo email via the Mail thingy, it will say "user name or password for apple.imap.mail.yahoo.com is incorrect even though my yahoo password and user name is correct.
This is copied from your first post. Am I reading this wrong? Aren't you saying that you are getting a message that the username and password are incorrect? That's why I asked another the word apple in the name. I don't use Yahoo mail that may in fact be correct but I'm just checking,
IF you are getting a message that the username and password are incorrect.....
Check the outgoing mail server setting. Make sure that your username and password are in there.
Settings>Mail, Contacts, Calendars>Your email account>Account>Outgoing mail server - tap the server name next to SMTP and check in the primary server and make sure your username and password are entered and correct - even if it says that the password is optional.

When I upgraded to Mountain Lion on my iMac, it will no longer allow me to use selected folders from iPhoto to run as my screen saver. Is there anything I can do to fix that?

When I upgraded to Mountain Lion on my iMac, it will no longer allow me to use selected folders from iPhoto to run as my screen saver. Is there anything I can do to fix that? Thanks for your help.

Does this involve iPhoto i some way? Seems more like an issue with your web browser.

I want to delete my iCloud account as I have created new Apple id. But it is not allowing me to delete the previous account as it in no longer in use. I m using IOS 8.2. My new Apple id and alternate email address is verified. Plz help I m stuck.

how can I delete my previous iCloud email address. It is no longer in use. I have created new Apple id. And it is verified but I cannot merge it with iCloud Since it is asking me to type password.

If the old ID is yours, and if your current ID was created by editing the details of this old ID (rather than being an entirely new ID), go to https://appleid.apple.com, click Manage my Apple ID and sign in with your current iCloud ID. Click edit next to the primary email account, change it back to your old email address and save the change. Then edit the name of the account to change it back to your old email address. You can now use your current password to turn off Find My iDevice, even though it prompts you for the password for your old account ID. Then save any photo stream photos that you wish to keep to your camera roll. When finished go to Settings>iCloud, tap Delete Account and choose Delete from My iDevice when prompted (your iCloud data will still be in iCloud). Next, go back to https://appleid.apple.com and change your primary email address and iCloud ID name back to the way it was. Now you can go to Settings>iCloud and sign in with your current iCloud ID and password.

Illustrator CS4 no longer allows me to paste images "Quicktime and a decompresser are needed to view this image". How do I fix this?

Since I installed the Yosemite Mac software upgrade, my Illustrator CS4 no longer allows me to paste images. I get the message "Quicktime and a decompresser are needed to view this image". How do I fix this? I've tried everything, nothing works!!!!

Did you use migration with the new OS or did you reinstall the CS4 apps from the original media? If you didn't, then you should uninstall CS4 making sure to check the box to remove preferences, run the Cleaner tool (Use the CC Cleaner Tool to solve installation problems | CC, CS3-CS6) and then reinstall CS4. CS4 is totally untested and unsupported on the latest versions of Mac OSes.

I don't know why it stopped working but it happened a month or two ago but the option on this phone that's usually all the way to the left when you select your device but now its not and I don't know what caused it. ive already tried troubleshooting my problem but have found no help.

Hello Salmomma,
Thank you for the details of the issue you are experiencing when trying to connect your iPhone to your Mac. I recommend following the steps in the tutorial below for an issue like this:
iPhone not appearing in iTunes

Additionally, you can delete music directly from the iPhone by swiping the song:
Delete a song from iPhone: In Songs, swipe the song, then tap Delete.

New Pages no longer allows SECTIONS (in thumbnail view window) to be re-arranged like before?

New Pages no longer allows SECTIONS (in thumbnail view window) to be re-arranged like before? You could drag and drop sections within your document the same way you could drag and drop pages in Preview's PDF documents. So how do you re-arrnage your document now?
ALSO
You used to be able to duplicate/copy a section/page by draging it with OPTION-LEFT-CLICK to a space below or above in the thumbnial window. The same way it works in PREVIEW in a PDF document. Did I miss something or is this also a bug?!
These were extremely helpful to me and I hope many others. Can anyone help!?
Thanks :-)

Pages '09 should still be in your Applications/iWork folder.
Archive/trash Pages 5 and rate/review it in the App Store, then get back to work.

My iPod Classic will no longer allow me to create podcast playlists. I've restored it twice. What is the problem?

My iPod Classic will no longer allow me to create podcast playlists. It create music playlists. I've restored it twice. What is the problem?

Is the problem that you can create them in iTunes, but they are empty on the iPod itself? If so, I had that problem, and the issue appeared to be that playlists that used MediaType=Podcast didn't seem to transfer. If, on the other hand, I gave all podcasts a Genre of Podcast, it worked better. In general, with the older iPod classic, I found that playlists based on MediaType didn't work that well.

The context has expired and can no longer be used errors making farm unusable

There are a couple of other posts on this forum about the message "The context has expired and can no longer be used" but they all suggest something related to time and time zone differences. This is not the case in my farm and I have disabled
the security checking of requests on my web applications. Hopefully someone at Microsoft is very aware of this and is working to resolve it because my farm and many others are unusable like this.
I have dug through all of the ULS errors when it happens and there is nothing useful. It barely even registers as a message although, I have not turned on verbose logging, which I am about to try. I have SP 1 installed. Just to be clear, this is happening
on SharePoint 2013 Enterprise.
I have been fighting this for a month. I can add a few things about the farm I am trying to fix:
1. It was a WSS 3.0 farm that when through a 2007-2010-2013 migration in short order.
2. I believe it is under-powered on the hardware side. All VMs on a host shared with 40 other VMs, some fairly busy. Here's the virtual farm breakdown:
-1 WFE with 12GB RAM and 2 cores
-3 app servers with similar resources
-No paging file on C: on any VM. This is a decision by sysadmin. Paging on D: is system managed. Probably irrelevant.
3. Rapidly clicking from link to link seems to bring on the failure much sooner.
Any suggestions even about how to troubleshoot this would be appreciated.

Ultimately, I think it is a time sync issue across the farm. We still have request management off on all boxes because I cannot get the admins to resolve this issue but, in my lab environment I ran into a similar thing.
I may turn RM back on later to see if it comes back but here's what I think happens: In production we have 2 ESXi hosts and our SP environment is all AD (of course). The clocks are all out of sync, sometimes beyond 5 minutes. (The time sync for AD is something
I believe a lot of admins don't understand when running virtual.)
If you allow ESXi to try to sync the time for all guests you run into problems. Maybe they are more pronounced with SharePoint. Anyway, VMware and AD start fighting over the time (check your event logs) and, for us, the clocks across the domain get out of
sync beyond the 5 minute allowable window.
I recommend disabling time sync from host to guest and do what MS recommends: make your domain controller the master time server and configure it to get its time from a reliable source (which can be a single hardware host over NTP). Make other domain controllers
sync from the PDC. The other windows machines will all sync to the domain when they log in. This will prevent SharePoint from issuing tokens from one machine that are out of sync time-wise with the other machines and thus throwing the "Context has expired
and can no longer be used" errors.
Note that disabling host to guest time sync is not as simple as just clearing / un-checking the box in the VSphere client. That doesn't do it. You will need to Google for the 6 or so custom properties you must add to each guest to prevent VMWare from re-synchronizing
after certain hardware events.

My iPhone 4s will no longer allow others to send me a text message

My iPhone 4s will no longer allow others to initiate a text message with me. I think I have pin pointed the issue, but I don't know how to fix it. When I go to Settings - Messages - Send & Receive, it has both my phone number and my email but it only will allow me to check the email account. Therefore, if people don't have this email stored in their phone, then it won't allow them to initiate a text message to me. They can reply to my texts, but it comes up as my email address vs. my phone number. I have tried to reset my networks, but that didn't help either. I have not downloaded the new iOS 7.0.4 yet. Does that have something to do with it or how can I fix this because I'm on the road for business and I won't have a chance to download it until I get home on Sunday!

I'm sorry you have not been able to utilize your text messaging AlaynaFHirsch. I recommend downloading the new software to your phone. It will definitely help with functionality issues. Are you using a 3rd party messaging application? Have you tried to perform a restore on your account?
