PowerPC apps no longer support - error message from Elements that I bought yesterday

Well, you've clearly not test your code for several years.
I bought Elements from Apple' Appstore yesterday, I did an hour of work, saved the file as a PSD file, when I opened it today I got an error message saying that the file couldn't be opened as POWERPC applications were no longer supported.
POWERPC!!!!!!!??????????? WTF??????????????
So - I want a refund.
In return I'll delete your joke of a product from my 13 month old INTEL MacBookPro and never purchase another Adobe product.
Hope that's a deal.
Thanks
Neil

Do you think you're talking to customer support, are you just venting, or would you like to try to solve this? If the first, this is just a user to user forum and you're just talking to other adobe customers here, not adobe, and nobody here can give anyone a refund. For that, you would need to use the Report a Problem link on your apple store receipt.
On the other had, if you want to try to figure out the problem we'll try to help.

Just upgraded to Mavericks and my HP6100 printer no longer works, when I try to reload the software it says PowerPC apps no longer supported. Is there a way to use my HP6100 Printer with Mavericks?

Just upgraded my 2009 iMac (3.06 Ghz, core 2 duo $GB 1067 Mhz DDR3) to Mavericks OSX 10.9.5 and my HP6100 printer no longer works, when I try to reload the software it says PowerPC apps no longer supported. Printer says the software was improperly installed. Is there a way to use my HP6100 Printer with Mavericks or do I need to go back to Mountain Lion or Snow Leopard?

It's not clear whether your printer is included in the Apple list - there is an Officejet 6100 and a couple of other types. Go to the page linked to above and use the browser search for 6100.
I'm afraid HP are notorious for not supporting older printers - I had the same problem. Probably they hope you will buy another printer (I did, but it was a Canon). I did look on HP's site and couldn't see a driver - you could give it a try (make sure you have the exactly correct printer name):

Alternatively ou could try Gutenprint (open source software):
http://gimp-print.sourceforge.net/MacOSX.php
I found it would indeed drive the printer, but the colour dithering wasn't very satisfactory and the duplex printing bolt-on wouldn't work. However as Gutenprint is free it's worth trying to see if it's any good for you.

Could be.
This may be hard to believe, but I think my problem was that the built-in WiFi adapter on my HP desktop had
gotten flaky. I switched to a Buffalo USB WiFi and the problem immediately disappeared. I never saw any errors, etc. from the Ralink adapter. Strange. Might try another type of connection to the Internet.

I'm getting an error message from Firefox that says, "Something is trying to trick Firefox into accepting an insecure update. Please contact your network provider and seek help."

I'm getting an error message from Firefox that says, "Something is trying to trick Firefox into accepting an insecure update. Please contact your network provider and seek help." Do you know what is going on here--what this problem could be? (I do have the latest Firefox version already installed. I have previously received Firefox error messages that say "Firefox Update Failed." However, I already had the latest Firefox version installed when I received those error messages.)

Apparently this occurs when Firefox has problems with security certificates. There have been a few questions about this. I will try to get advice about this.
Apparently you are using Internet Explorer 9 (From your system details). Do you have Google Updater plugin installed on Firefox ?
(That been implicated in this sort of problem by one poster, and some users with the problem do have Google Updater, but some do not)

Final Cut studio won't install- "powerpc apps no longer supported"

I'm trying to install my old copy of final cut studio 5.1 and it tells me 'power pc apps are no longer supported', however this is a universal copy of studio 5.1 (intel or powerpc) and it's being installed on an intel machine. Any thoughts?

There are lots of threads on this subject if you do a search, but the answer is that you need to install Rossetta from a Snow Leopard disc to be able to run the installer. Also, I believe you need to update to 5.1.4 before you launch FCP and even then it's not a guarantee that the software will be trouble free under Lion.

Applications that came with Epson printer on Win XP respond "Can't open... PowerPC apps no longer supported. Were they in Snow Leopard before I upgraded?

Epson pinter came with photo apps that ran under Windows XP. Loaded onto iMac 27", they don't respond with "Not compatable with Mac" but rather with "You can't open the application ..... whichever one ..... because PowerPC applications are no longer supported". Were they supported under Snow Leopard OS before I upgraded to Lion? Why "NO LONGER" SUPPORTED?

Were they supported under Snow Leopard OS before I upgraded to Lion?
Yes, using something called Rosetta.
Why "NO LONGER" SUPPORTED?
OS X 10.7 does not support Power PC applications. I do not speak for Apple, but it appears they determined that since most applications are written Universal Binary, there was no reason to incur the expense of maintenance in the new OS X.
Many manufacturers have provided updates for older equipment (some have not). I suggest you either run software update andor check with Epson.

**MY POWERPC APPS NO LONGER WORK** CS1 or PH Elements 2.0

I recently updated to Lion on my MAC and what a mistake that was! Had I know that I was going to loose most of my software, granite my MAC is from 2006 so my software is a bit dated, I had Adobe Creative Suite 1 and PS Elements 2.0 along with Office 2004 but non of these programs worked after the update. I dont have the serial number anymore for CS1 but I do have it for PS Elements 2.0 still, are there any drivers that would update my current software out there? I can't afford to replace the entire suite.. So If anyone can help me I would be very appreciative!
Thanks,

Well, this was no news. It's been known for nearly a year that this is part of the deal with lion. Presumably you kept a backup of your previous system, so if you don't want to update your software, just revert back to that. If PSE 2 was working it must have been a fairly old version of OS X, though. There is no way to make PPC software run in 10.7, and PSE 2 stopped working when 10.5 came out.

I have an Epson scanner that is apparently no longer supported because it is a PowerPC app. It's a very good scanner that worked fine until I upgraded to OS Mountain Lion on my MacBook Pro. Any suggestions on how I can continue to use it?

I am getting the PowerPC applications are no longer supported error, so I downloaded Libreoffice and can not find it on my hard drive anywhere. It did say install to Applications but it's not there. How do I find it and can I put it in my dock?

"Cannot play video - The Connected display is not supported" error message using Netflix 5.0.2 on my iPad

I'm running iOS 7.0.3 on my iPhone 4S and iPad (3rd gen) and have just upgraded to the current version of the Neflix app available in the Canadian App Store (5.0.2).
Although all other apps I've tried (e.g. Podcast, VLC) are able to properly output video & audio directly to my TV using the HDMI adapter (i.e. NOT via an Apple TV), the Netflix app pops up the error message "Cannot play video - The connected display is not supported". If I start a video and then plug the HDMI cable in, it will play for a few seconds and then halt with the same error message.
Netflix & Apple were supposed to have been working together to fix the previous issue with this scenario which was causing audio to be output but no video. The current Netflix app update was released yesterday and seems to have taken a step backward.
When I contacted Netflix support, they indicated that they have done whatever can be done from their side and this is now Apple's issue.
Any ideas?
Thanks!

Hello all,
I have an iPad 2 16GB with iOS 7.0.3 and Netflix version 5.0.2. I cannot watch netflix on an External LCD monitor that I have through VGA out. I use bluetooth speakers, so the AirPlay is going to that for Audio. Before this update, this combo worked without an issue.
So as of Friday Nov. 8/2013, I contacted Netflix support, and they said they fixed the problem on their end, and the fix is on the Apple side of things, and to contact Apple support.
So, I contacted Apple support, and the first person I spoke to said I would have to agree to pay a $35 fee for 30 days of support to this problem since my unit is out of warranty. I said this isn't a hardware issue, it's a software issue, and I'm not willing to pay to fix a problem you created. So I got a Senior Level advisor on the line, and she was helpful, and she's looking into the issue for me and said she'll contact me sometime on Tuesday or Wednesday (Nov. 12 or 13) to let me know of the issue.
Here's the thing: this is a combination of Netflix and iOS not working correctly with any of the Apple Authorized Dongles. This is truly a code error that some hot shot programmer had major oversight on, and their management didn't catch it either. There was no reason for Netflix to rush to get this Netflix update going until Apple sorted out the bugs in iOS 7.
Anyway, if I hear anything from Donna (the advisor), I'll post it and let you guys know. In the mean time, good luck!
