Pressing Enter on Download dialog starts another download (OSX Yosemite)

Since I upgraded to Yosemite (OSX 10.10, running FF 33.0.3), when I download a file and press Enter to save to Downloads, this starts another download of the same file (while also saving the original file). This didn't use to happen on Mavericks, so I'm hoping there's an easy fix for it. Any ideas much appreciated.

No, what happens when I press Enter (with the download dialog focused) to save a file in any folder, the file saves, but another download dialog pops up immediately. It looks like Enter is activating ("clicking") the link to the file again, even though the main browser window doesn't have focus.
I'm not running any antivirus software or the like and this problem only started when I upgraded to Yosemite.

I downloaded OSX Yosemite and now I can't open Photoshop CS5

I downloaded OSX Yosemite and now I can't open Photoshop CS5. Says I have to download the new Java 6 script, so I did and it still won't open.
I try to open PS but I get a message (unexpected unrecoverable error) I was using PS before I downloaded Yosemite. Could downloading Yosemite some
how corrupted part of PhotoShop? Should I try and reinstall PhotoShop? I have a MacBook Pro 13"; 2011; 4g mem; intel core i5.
Any suggestions?

You should check with Adobe, but it's likely they'll say that Photoshop CS5 isn't supported on Yosemite and they'll recommend you update to a new CC version, which of course requires a subscription.
It could be that Photoshop requires a Java installation (and probably an old one), that isn't running on Yosemite by default. Java 6 is not "new," it's in fact very old. I do think you can download Java 6 from Apple - check apple.com/support/downloads.

Your case may be simpler to resolve. You do not have the MBR entry for Windows.
Do you a NTFS header "R.NTFS" when you run the following command in Terminal?
sudo dd if=/dev/rdisk0s4 count=1 2>/dev/null | hexdump -C

HT1199 I am trying to download OSX Yosemite onto my Macbook Pro 2011. It asks me for an administrative password to continue. I do not have an administrative password. What do I do?

I have a Macbook Pro 2011 with operating system OS X Lion 10.7.5
I am trying to download OS X Yosemite from ITunes/Apple Store and it asks for an administrative password which I do not have. What do I do?

Hello Chernells,
Thank you for using Apple Support Communities.

I downloaded osx yosemite 10.10.1 now I can't open iPhotopw I can't open iPhoto

I downloaded OS X Yosemite 10.10.1 and now IPhoto does not open.

Option 1
Back Up and try rebuild the library: hold down the command and option (or alt) keys while launching iPhoto. Use the resulting dialogue to rebuild. Choose to Repair Database. If that doesn't help, then try again, this time using Rebuild Database.
If that fails:
Option 2
Download iPhoto Library Manager and use its rebuild function. (In early versions of Library Manager it's the File -> Rebuild command. In later versions it's under the Library menu.)
This will create an entirely new library. It will then copy (or try to) your photos and all the associated metadata and versions to this new Library, and arrange it as close as it can to what you had in the damaged Library. It does this based on information it finds in the iPhoto sharing mechanism - but that means that things not shared won't be there, so no slideshows, books or calendars, for instance - but it should get all your events, albums and keywords, faces and places back.
Because this process creates an entirely new library and leaves your old one untouched, it is non-destructive, and if you're not happy with the results you can simply return to your old one.
Regards

Windows- bootcamp won't start after installing OSX Yosemite

Hi Loner T,
Like many people with the yosemite update, my boot camp no longer works.
I cannot find the drive when I'm booting up.
Startup Disk under system preferences only shows the Mac system and does not show any other option.

Hope you can help me, Thank You.

The NTFS header is intact and the GPT and MBR match.
1. What happens if you power cycle and hold the Alt key?
2. Do you have any third-party NTFS software (Tuxera, Paragon, MacDrive, NTFS-3g, NTFSFree...)?

Eli,
You can reset a Password (lost/forgotten) set on your Mac using 'Reset Password Utility' available with OS X Utilities tool. With OS X Mountain Lion, OS X Utilities tool can be generally found on a local hidden Recovery HD Partition if your Mac has one.
To check If your Mac has got a local hidden Recovery HD Partition, start your Mac holding COMMAND + R buttons. If you hold the keys pressed enough and there is a local Recovery HD Partition on your Mac, you will be presented with OS X Utilities window.
Click the 'Tool' menu item and choose 'Reset password'. Terminal window appears. Type 'resetpassword' into it and press 'Enter'. Reset Password window appears with User Account Names available on your Start-up Volume. Select the User Account Name and rest is simple to follow.
One of the advantages of this method is that it does not require any Authorization method such as administrative authentication to reset a password.
NOTE: If your Mac does not have a local hidden Recovery Partition on its system disk, you can create one using Disk Assistant application available from Apple. Search for the Disk Assistant in the support area.

What's installed on your computer? If you don't have Snow Leopard 10.6.6 or later then you cannot get Lion. If you already have Lion installed then you cannot re-download from the App Store until you have reinstalled Snow Leopard.
