PLEASE HELP! Will Adobe CS2 run on a G4 iMac?
I currently own two HP Media Centers that are less than a year old; they both have AMD Athlon X2 Processors and 2 GB of RAM. Neither of them can handle Adobe CS2. I have been on with HP tech support for 5 days straight, trying to get this issue resolved. Only to find out that there are compatibility issues between Adobe CS2 and Windows XP. I need a computer that will run Adobe CS2. I want to purchase a used Mac that will be able to handle it, since they are the industry standard for graphic design. Will a 17" Flat Panel iMac with 1 GHz G4 Processor and 512 MB - 1 GB of RAM be able to handle the programs? Please help. I work from home and need to get a new computer ASAP to be able to get work done for my clients.
Flat Panel iMac Mac OS X (10.4.8)
It sounds like you have already purchased the Adobe Suite. That being the case, and since you are looking at a laptop, you have a couple of choices.
First, look for a refurbished Powerbook G4 on Apple's store website. I have purchased computers from ebay, but you really take a chance doing that, especially if you don't know what specific questions to ask the sellers... The Powerbook G4 will run the Adobe CS2 faster than the MacBooks at this time because of the Rosetta issue (emulation issue--the intel processor cannot read the "old" PowerPC code without translation and that takes some time).
Second, go ahead and get your MacBook and live with the slightly reduced performance of your Adobe CS2. It will still run much faster than what it does on your current G3. Then, wait for Adobe to join the Universal band wagon and upgrade (Adobe's upgrade pricing is generally very reasonable). At that time, you will be in a position to take full advantage of the speed of your new MacBook or MacBook Pro.
If it were me, I'd go for the MacBook Pro and deal with the reduced performance for now.
Good luck with your decision.

How will Adobe CS2 run on my imac G5 2.0 GHz?
On ebay I recently won a imac G5 (ALS) 2.0 GHz with 1GB of RAM and a 128 MB ATI Radeon 9600 Video Card etc. you guys probably already know the specs.
anyways despite the optimistic opinions of the guys at my local independent mac store I'd like to know really how well this machine will run the Adobe CS2 Suite (Illustrator, Photoshop & InDesign).
now I don't work on HUGE files... probably 20 megs max, but I like to switch back and forth between Photoshop and Illustrator a lot, dragging and dropping graphics etc. and one of my biggest peeves is lag of any kind while I'm doing this. screws up my "flow" or whatever when I'm in the groove and I'm feeling inspired.
what I have at my 9-5 office job is a Mac Pro G5 w/ dual 1.8 GHz processors and 3GB of RAM. this is basically where I'm coming from (wish it was mine but it belongs to the company) so how will my imac hold up when I'm doing my graphic design at home? do I need more RAM? thanks for your help
imac G5 (ALS) Mac OS X (10.4) Graphic Designcool... next I'll have to get an ipod nano (black ofcourse) and build my music library up again. I'm coming from a PC and the really clunky Sony Connect music software so as soon as my Mac arrives my Sony mp3 player is gonna go up on ebay and I'm going to have to look around for a nano. I like itunes so much better anyways... a lot easier to use so the switch is actually fine with me.
and because my imac isn't an isight one with FrontRow I'll have to get a universal base and remote... I'll probably just end up getting the A/V kit cuz lord knows I don't want to have to get off the couch the change tunes while I'm chillin at home listening to music on my sound system.
my imac has the optical audio-out port that I could plug into my Pioneer receiver but without the FrontRow remote I'd have to be in front of the computer when I wanted to change songs... unless the remote that controls the universal base and ipod can also control itunes thats on the mac thus controlling the music thats being ported out over the optical line but thats a different thread entirely and probably belongs on the ipod forum....
and besides, the optical audio line is really only beneficial for DTS Surround Sound signals and I'd just be sending junky compressed mp3 audio to my receiver anyways so a composite line is probably fine (like the one that comes with the A/V kit).

I just got the iPhone 5 and noticed that the message alerts will only alert once . I have it set up as 3 times and its not working . Please help. I'm running 6.0.2 and I really starting to get ****** off with apple products
Instead of getting annoyed, read the User's Guide and try basic troubleshooting.

Urgent please help will reward points
How do i join two trans table with indexes.
please help will reward points.Hi,
Just copy paste this code, activate and test.
INNER JOIN.
TYPES: BEGIN OF t_vbak,
vbeln TYPE vbeln,
END OF t_vbak.
TYPES: BEGIN OF t_vbap ,
vbeln TYPE vbeln_va,
posnr TYPE posnr_va,
END OF t_vbap.
DATA: it_vbak TYPE STANDARD TABLE OF t_vbak.
DATA: wa_vbak TYPE t_vbak.
DATA: it_vbap TYPE STANDARD TABLE OF t_vbap.
DATA: wa_vbap TYPE t_vbap.
select-options: s_vbeln for wa_vbak-vbeln.
SELECT avbeln bposnr INTO table it_vbap FROM vbak AS a
INNER JOIN vbap AS b ON
avbeln = bvbeln WHERE a~vbeln in s_vbeln.
loop at it_vbap into wa_vbap.
WRITE:/ wa_vbap-vbeln, wa_vbap-posnr.
endloop.
LEFT OUTER JOINT.
SELECT avbeln bposnr INTO table it_vbap FROM vbak AS a
left outer join vbap AS b ON
avbeln = bvbeln WHERE a~vbeln in s_vbeln.
loop at it_vbap into wa_vbap.
WRITE:/ wa_vbap-vbeln, wa_vbap-posnr.
endloop.
DIFFERENCE BETWEEN INNER AND LEFT OUTER JOIN.
With respect to above example,
INNER JOIN will fetch all those datas with reference to VBAK in VBAP.
LEFT OUTER JOIN will also fetch all those datas with reference to VBAK in VBAP. But it will also fetch those data which are in VBAK, But not in VBAP.
hope this helps. -
PLEASE HELP! How can I tell if my Imac has been hacked?
PLEASE HELP! How can I tell if my Imac has been hacked? I see a few people have asked this question but the responses tended to be advice on what to do once you've been hacked, not what can done to find out if you have been hacked. I have a late 2012 model imac. My sharing was off and remote logging was off. I use an external router that send wireless to about 4 consoles in the flat. I don't think I have any firewalls up (now looking like a mistake). I think I'm possibly being hacked due to abnormal behaviour and most recently my camera was turned off all day (no LED) then I went to record something on Photo Booth, the application popped up displaying an image of me getting dressed (nightmare!) which happened hours earlier when the camera was off. This image quickly then disappeared and the camera began working normally. Very strange and alarming. Please help me. Any advice would be very much appreciated. Thanks.
1. This procedure is a diagnostic test. It changes nothing, for better or worse, and therefore will not, in itself, solve the problem. But with the aid of the test results, the solution may take a few minutes, instead of hours or days.
Don't be put off merely by the seeming complexity of these instructions. The process is much less complicated than the description. You do harder tasks with the computer all the time.
2. If you don't already have a current backup, back up all data before doing anything else. The backup is necessary on general principle, not because of anything in the test procedure. Backup is always a must, and when you're having any kind of trouble with the computer, you may be at higher than usual risk of losing data, whether you follow these instructions or not.
There are ways to back up a computer that isn't fully functional. Ask if you need guidance.
3. Below are instructions to run a UNIX shell script, a type of program. All it does is to collect information about the state of the computer. That information goes nowhere unless you choose to share it. However, you should be cautious about running any kind of program (not just a shell script) at the behest of a stranger. If you have doubts, search this site for other discussions in which this procedure has been followed without any report of ill effects. If you can't satisfy yourself that the instructions are safe, don't follow them. Ask for other options.
Here's a summary of what you need to do, if you choose to proceed:
Copy a line of text in this window to the Clipboard.
Paste into the window of another application.
Wait for the test to run. It usually takes a few minutes.
Paste the results, which will have been copied automatically, back into a reply on this page.
The sequence is: copy, paste, wait, paste again. You don't need to copy a second time. Details follow.
4. You may have started the computer in "safe" mode. Preferably, these steps should be taken in “normal” mode, under the conditions in which the problem is reproduced. If the system is now in safe mode and works well enough in normal mode to run the test, restart as usual. If you can only test in safe mode, do that.
5. If you have more than one user, and the one affected by the problem is not an administrator, then please run the test twice: once while logged in as the affected user, and once as an administrator. The results may be different. The user that is created automatically on a new computer when you start it for the first time is an administrator. If you can't log in as an administrator, test as the affected user. Most personal Macs have only one user, and in that case this section doesn’t apply. Don't log in as root.
6. The script is a single long line, all of which must be selected. You can accomplish this easily by triple-clicking anywhere in the line. The whole line will highlight, though you may not see all of it in the browser window, and you can then copy it. If you try to select the line by dragging across the part you can see, you won't get all of it.
Triple-click anywhere in the line of text below on this page to select it:

Copy the selected text to the Clipboard by pressing the key combination command-C.
7. Launch the built-in Terminal application in any of the following ways:
Enter the first few letters of its name into a Spotlight search. Select it in the results (it should be at the top.)
In the Finder, select Go ▹ Utilities from the menu bar, or press the key combination shift-command-U. The application is in the folder that opens.
Open LaunchPad. Click Utilities, then Terminal in the icon grid.
Click anywhere in the Terminal window and paste by pressing command-V. The text you pasted should vanish immediately. If it doesn't, press the return key.
8. If you see an error message in the Terminal window such as "syntax error," enter
exec bash
and press return. Then paste the script again.
9. If you're logged in as an administrator, you'll be prompted for your login password. Nothing will be displayed when you type it. You will not see the usual dots in place of typed characters. Make sure caps lock is off. Type carefully and then press return. You may get a one-time warning to be careful. If you make three failed attempts to enter the password, the test will run anyway, but it will produce less information. In most cases, the difference is not important. If you don't know the password, or if you prefer not to enter it, press the key combination control-C or just press return three times at the password prompt. Again, the script will still run.
If you're not logged in as an administrator, you won't be prompted for a password. The test will still run. It just won't do anything that requires administrator privileges.
10. The test may take a few minutes to run, depending on how many files you have and the speed of the computer. A computer that's abnormally slow may take longer to run the test. While it's running, there will be nothing in the Terminal window and no indication of progress. Wait for the line
[Process completed]
to appear. If you don't see it within half an hour or so, the test probably won't complete in a reasonable time. In that case, close the Terminal window and report the results. No harm will be done.
11. When the test is complete, quit Terminal. The results will have been copied to the Clipboard automatically. They are not shown in the Terminal window. Please don't copy anything from there. All you have to do is start a reply to this comment and then paste by pressing command-V again.
At the top of the results, there will be a line that begins with the words "Start Time." If you don't see that, but instead see a mass of gibberish, you didn't wait for the "Process completed" message to appear in the Terminal window. Please wait for it and try again.
If any private information, such as your name or email address, appears in the results, anonymize it before posting. Usually that won't be necessary.
12. When you post the results, you might see the message, "You have included content in your post that is not permitted." It means that the forum software has misidentified something in the post as a violation of the rules. If that happens, please post the test results on Pastebin, then post a link here to the page you created.
Note: This is a public forum, and others may give you advice based on the results of the test. They speak only for themselves, and I don't necessarily agree with them.

Need help. I am running a 27 in imac with 16 gigs of ram. Photoshop runs really fast, except when opening files. It takes 5-10 minutes to open even a small file of 1 meg. I cleaned and validated all the fonts and removed all questionable fonts. Reset preferences and still have problem. Slow to open and in force quit "Photoshop not responding" At this point should I uninstall and start over.
What are the performance Preferences?
-
Can anyone please help? Every time I start up my imac OSX 10.6 desktop my Aperture 3 programme opens up without being requested. Is it possible to stop this happening and only allow Aperture to open by using the desktop icon? Thank you for any assistance anyone may be able to give.
Best regards, John.because there is absolutely no mention in my System Preferences of either Users & Groups nor Start Up Items.
John,
William's solution was much easier - just for completeness sake: The preferences panes to edit your startup items moved between the Mac OS X updates: I forgot that the "Users&Groups" preference pane used to be called "Users" in Mac OS X 10.6; it is the panel that you use to create new User accounts; and earlier systems had a separate preferences panel "Login" to enable and to disable the applications that are launched at login. Both are now combined in "Users&Groups". Sorry for sending you on a wild goose chase with the wrong Preferences panel.
Regards

Please help with cancellation! running out of time
i really really need to cancel my purchase of illustrator, my first month is about to be over and i am running out of time! i can't seem to be able to do it according to the proper steps, because it does not appear in my plans or downloaded items. all that appears is a free creative cloud plan which does not have the option of cancellation. according to my bank, adobe has charged me for the first month of the package, so i don't know why it does not appear in my packages. please help as soon as possible. is there no way to contact adobe other than these forums?

PLEASE HELP! Adobe Photoshop Elements 8 editor won't open!!
Hi! I'm new to the forums and to Adobe. So, I'm a little clueless about all this stuff.
WELL
everytime I click my Photoshop icon the welcome screen appears and the editor begins to load.
However, the screen doesn't pop up at all. Just the welcome screen. It just shows the Photoshop Elements editor's small window on the bottom of my screen. I click on it and the editor doesn't show up at all.
It did this a couple of times before. But, now the editor isn't showing.
My organizer works just fine, but I'm wondering if I can somehow open Photoshop's editor on the organizer?
If you could please PLEASE PLEASE HELP ME and reply as soon as possible! I would love to draw and color on Photoshop again as soon as I have fix this problem!
Thank you so much!
-MarleyTry making a direct desktop icon for the Organizer and Editor and that will bypass the welcome screen and any advertising.
On Windows right click on the desktop and select New >> Shortcut
Browse to Computer OS C:
And find the PSE Organizer application in Program Files or Program Files (x86) on Windows 7 - 64 bit.
Inside the Adobe >> Photoshop Elements Organizer (yellow folder) you are looking for an application file “PhotoshopEementsOrganizer” with six small icons (e.g. representing thumbnails)
Select it and click OK
Click next
Rename by taking out Photoshop Elements leaving just the word Organizer
Then click finish
You should now be able to launch directly form the desktop by double clicking on the icon.
You can set up a similar direct link to the Editor application (.exe file which has the blue PSE icon). As before take out Photoshop Elements just leaving the description Editor and it will show up clearly on the desktop.
You can keep the standard Photoshop icon which links to the welcome screen but I prefer to delete it from the desktop. If you ever need to get to the welcome screen you simply click Window >>Welcome on the top menu when the application is open.

Jjmack! Please help me "adobe photoshop express version 2.7.2
Please Jjmack! Before i was buy "adobe photoshop express version 2.7.2." at app store. But it's all removed. Please help me to be use able to adobe photoshop express version 2.7.2. I can't utterly version 3.0. Please teach me a way download.
I can not help. If you updated to a newer version and do not have a backup of your older version. I do no think you can recover in that case you need to fine someone with the old version to get a copy.
If you sync you tablet with your pc with iTunes the first thing iTune seems to do when you sync updates any application updated its old version is first trashed. Therefore its in your trash bin and you can recover the old version from the trash by renaming the newer version and restoring the older version from the trash. Now the old version will be in you PC iTunes. You can then delete the applet from your tablet then install the old version from your pc iTunes. On a Windows 7 PC apps are stored in "C:\Users\your User Id\Music\iTunes\iTunes Media\Mobile Applications" I do not know where the are stored on a mac. -
.joboptions error PLEASE HELP! (Adobe 8.1.4)
Hey all,
I'm currently using Acrobat updated to 8.1.4 on my WinXP Home Edition SP3. My Acrobat used to work like a charm, until a recent Windows Update that was installed last night. I believe it was a .Netframework 3.5 something like that, as well as 2 other updates for Microsoft Office 2003 and Microsoft Office 2007 respectively. A restart was prompted.
After the restart, upon entering my account (the sole administrator), I recieved this message:
Adobe Acrobat 8.1.4
"Unable to locate the following Adobe PDF Settings file or other resources: ...Acrobat 8.0\Acrobat\Settings\Standard.joboptions"
Do you want to run the installer in repair mode?
And so I clicked yes for the installer to repair. And it prompted me to restart. After restart, I got the same error window. This time I decided to totally uninstall Adobe Acrobat and reinstall. Same problem.
So I removed the windows updates that was installed a day back and reinstalled Adobe. Still to no avail. I've looked into the directory and the file "Standard.joboptions" is present in the Settings folder.
I've tried the solution posted here http://www.adobe.com/support/techdocs/320707.html

Will illustrator cs2 run on imac quad core?
will illustrator cs2 and photoshop cs run on the new imac quad core? if not, which versions will run?
Only the very latest versions will/could have updates for 10.7 Lion as the OS was just released and doesn't run "Rosetta/PPC" based programs which those most likely are.
Guess you milked Adobe for as long as you could, perhaps you can buy a used machine? -

MySql - Connection Props - Please help - willing to pay
Hi,
My setup:
Windows XP
IIS ver 5
MySQL databse
Dreamweaver MX 2004
Language ASP.NET VB
This is driving me round the bend have searached all forums
and nothing is pointing me in the right direction.
1) First question, can I actually use dreamweaver MX 2004 to
create ASP.NET VB pages and connect to a MYSQL database?
The reason I ask is I have set up a system DSN in >
control panel > administrative tools > Datasources (ODBC)
All works fine connection is successful etc. (MySQl ODBC 3.51
Driver)
I then open dreamweaver, create new ASP.NET VB page. Go to
the databases panel click the + sign and have 2 options:
OLE DB connection or SQL Server connection. I assume its not
the latter as that is for SQL seerver not MySQL. I have tried every
combination of the OLE DB connection (2options - Templates or
Build)
Templates:
Oracle (Microsoft Provider)
Oracle (Oracle Provider)
Microsoft SQL Server
Microsoft Access 97 (Jet 3.5 provider)
Microsoft Access 2000 (Jet 4 provider)
UDL File
I don't think any of the above are correct for connecting to
a MySQL database, so I try:
BUILD
List of providers this time are :
Microsoft ISAM 1.1 OLE DB Provider
Microsoft Jet 4.0 OLE DB Provider
Microsoft OLE DB Provider for Data Mining Services
Microsoft OLE DB Provider for Indexing Service
Microsoft OLE DB Provider for ODBC Drivers (***** I Guess its
this one? ****)
Microsoft OLE DB Provider for OLAP Services 8.0
Microsoft OLE DB Provider for Oracle
Microsoft OLE DB Provider for SQL Server
Microsoft OLE DB Simple Provider
MSDatashape
OLE DB Provider for Microsoft Directory Services.
So I choose the one highlighted above for ODBC drivers as I
think this one is correct?
1st option - Use data source name which has a dropdown box
and I can choose my dsn as mentioned earlier.
or 'Use connection String' - I Don't use
2nd Option Logon to server info
Username ***Is this the username and password of mySQL
database because if so it doesn't work, have also tried leaving it
bland and every time i do a test after choosing the initial catalog
to use I get the eror message:
Test connection failed because of an error in intialising
provider. Catastrophic failure!
All I want to is connect to a bl**dy databse so I can teach
myself the basics but can't get past this first hurdle.
Someone please help! Thanks in advance.
PasswordFor your eMac, you will need to go with a *miniDV camcorder*, such as the Canon ZR series (current lineup is the ZR900/930/950/960). They all have image stabilization & take stills; the 900, 930 and 960 also have an external mic input.
You may also want to look into an earlier Canon Optura or Elura series camcorder or similar miniDV camcorder from Sony, JVC, Panasonic, etc. There aren't many new miniDV models available anymore, but you can still find them and they are on the lower end of the price scale these days!
B&H Photo is a great supplier to deal with and you will be hard pressed to find prices lower elsewhere.
The eMac does not support AVCHD, so that eliminates any of those newer camcorders (you need an Intel based Mac to capture & edit AVCHD video). The Canon FS line unfortunately records to MPEG2 MOD files, which needs to be converted before it can be imported into iMovie or Final Cut Express. And the conversion is not simple.
