Purchased Lightroom educator version for use on Mac with Yosemite and it won't open. It crashes overtime I try to open it.

I purchased Lightroom for use on a MAC using the new operating system of Yosemite, and it crashes every time it tries to open. I have removed and reinstalled it, but it does not help. Is this program mac compatible? How can I get it to work?

This should not be so difficult, and really does not require a screenshot, or a chain of a dozen email.
The message says “Lightroom quit unexpectedly. Click report to send a report to apple.” There is no error number or any other message. That is it.
It has been installed, removed and reinstalled.
IT DOES NOT OPEN.
How do I resolve this. I have now spent hours on this issue and I am in the same place.

RReset printing system again and the restart in Safe Mode . This will clear some caches,to do this hold down the Shift key when you hear the startup tone until a progress bar appears, after it has fully booted restart normally and add the printer.

External HDD formatting for use in Mac OS X and Windows

I've been gifted with WD (My Passport) 1TB External HDD. On the box it says it requires reformatting for use in Mac OS X.
I used the earlier discussions. I couldn't decipher the steps details as it was mostly by level 4 above.
Can any honourable member advice me on how to reformat my new external HDD for use in Mac OS X and Windows (As in office and during meetings I might haveto use wwindows system)
Also if done with formatting will this be allowing to setup Time Machine back ups.
Please be sure that I want to use time machine exclusively for backup, some earlier discussions mention that TM can also be used for OS booting etc.,
I would be greatful to all who will help me in these regard

Normally the drives are formated as exFAT which could be used by both a Mac and a PC out of the box. Connect the drive to your computer it should be able to read it. If not then the system will ask you if you want o erase the hard drive. Select yes, it will format the drive for use with a Mac only. This is the required format to use it as a Time Machine backup. As stated in our post you would like to use this hard drive on both Windows and Mac, you should reformat the hard drive as exFAT in disk utility.

I have recently run across a very similar issue and wondering if you ever got to the bottom of yours.
I have been using an iMac for 2 years with a Synology drive and no issues. A few days ago I bought a new Macbook Air and when I connect to the Synology server some files are greyed out and will give the message above.
What is strange is there does not seem to be a pattern. I have two excel files in the same directory one is fine and the other is greyed out. The greyed out file is only a later copy of the OK file.
Everything is still working fine on the iMac it is only the Air that has the issue. Both machines are on the latest patches of Lion.

Installed new version of Mac OS x and iWeb won't open

I installed new version of Mac OS x last night and iWeb won't open

I spent an exhausting night testing programs after updating. My iWeb works as expected after the update. No network problems whatsoever. You may want to see if you are connected to the internet. iWeb opens incredibly slowly when there is no connection. Try opening Safari and see if you are surfing normally.
Lion hides the Library folders, probably so users can't mess with them. I downloaded the latest beta of Onyx and was able to get the Library folders to show again.
The only problem I had were some font issues. Do you have a font manager installed? Lion installs its font program and it is set to automatically activate fonts. I turned all autoactivation off.
Lion has no Rosetta and Power PC programs are no longer supported. Do you have the newest version of iWeb installed? I also have been updating my Mac constantly. You may want to run software update and make sure all your programs are current.

{file} is used by Mac OS X and can't be opened

This file is a video file and the lock that OS X has on it is persistent between reboots.
Anyone know how to get OS X to let go of the file and let me watch it please?
Thanks

Thanks for the response. Indeed - I've never heard of such a thing as you describe.
Wondering: what app are you using to open this video file and what is the video file format?
What I'm thinking (just in case you haven't tried this) is that you could do a Get Info on this file and then use the "open with" dialogue to assign (or re-assign) the proper application for opening that file and all other video files with that file extension.
Just a chance that might correct the System ownership issue.
Other than that, the only alternative I can think of is to log in as Root User and go from there. I think you would then be able to play the video but you won't want to stay on as Root User - that's for certain.
While logged on as Root User, you might again try changing permissions or even try using a video conversion app to change the video file to a new format - and then rename and apply permissions.
I think the real probability isn't going to please you: I think this file is corrupted and if it's the only copy you have, it's "junk." But the above experiment would likely prove that either way.

I transfered a project from one mac to another and imovie won't open the rcproject on the 2nd computer

How do I get the new computer to open the transferred project to continue editing?

The project file is sort of like a text file ( a hexadecimal text file) that provides instructions to how to put the project together. These instructions are run when you SHARE the project using the Share menu.
The rcproject file does not contain any of your video footage. Those are all in the Event folders. It also does not contain your Photos. Those are in iPhoto, or Aperture, or wherever you keep them.
A project might say,
Go get clip A from Event 1 and start at frame 32 and end at frame 500. Then overlay a title on it and crank up a music track that you can find at this path in iTunes. Now go get this other clip....
That is why project files are very small.
That is also why it is very important to do all moves within iMovie. If you move an Event folder somewhere using the Finder, the Project file still thinks that all the clips are at the original place, so now they can't find them.
The best way to move the Event folders is to attach an external drive. The external drive must be formatted as Mac OS Extended (journaled). In iMovie, click VIEW/EVENTS BY DISK. Now you should see your disk drive listed in the Event Library.
The most foolproof method is first to hold down the Command key and drag the small icon for your project in the Project Library List to the small icon for the external disk drive in the Project Library List. (Note: A simple drag will COPY. Holding Command down as you drag will MOVE).
Now, select this project file on your external drive. Now click FILE/CONSOLIDATE MEDIA. Now you can copy over all Event folders referenced in the Project, as well as copies of any music, photos, or other project assets.
You can plug this drive into the other Mac and edit. Or if you prefer, you can reverse the process by Command Dragging the Project (in iMovie ) to the internal drive, and then selecting it and FILE/CONSOLIDATE MEDIA.

Using Sharp MX2310u with mavericks and it won't print

Hi There,
I've just bought a new iMAC, and it came with mavericks. Now the work printer won't connect. Any ideas on how to circumnavigate the need for Sharp to produce up to date drivers?

Hi Tania.
The HP Jetdirect protocol is the default protocol used by Windows, where it is called Standard TCP/IP or RAW Port 9100. So the advantage of creating the printer queue on the Mac using this protocol is that it is often enabled in the copier and it does not require a specific queue name like LPD can sometimes require.
To check what options are installed, if you know the IP address the Sharp is using, then you can enter this IP address into a web browser as the URL. This will connect to the internal web page of the copier and from one of the provided menus you should be able to see what option kit the Sharp has.

If I purchase lightroom but want to install on both a pc and a mac is that possible from just a download version rather than ordering a disc?

If I purchase lightroom but want to install on both a pc and a mac is that possible from just a download version rather than ordering a disc?

Yes, a single serial number can be used to install on two computers and one can be a PC and one a Mac. The download will be a different installer for each platform but the serial number should activate both.

I purchased Lightroom 5, loaded it on my Mac, and updated to version 5.6. I then tried importing photos from my Sony DSC-RX100iii. Unfortunately it only imports JPEG files but no RAW files. What is the problem and how do I fix it?

Than LR should have brought in the RAW files as well. ACR is the RAW
processing engine used by LR under the covers so anything not supported by
ACR would not be supported by Lightroom.
Are you shooting RAW plus JPEG? By default, Lightroom will stack then
unless you tell it not to. Check to see if there is a small badge on the
preview that looks like two sheets of paper with a number. That is how
Lightroom indicates a stack. You can unstack them by clicking on the badge.
There is also a menu item to stack/unstack photos. Otherwise, I would have
to research but not sure why Lightroom would ignore the RAW photos but
still import the JPEGS.

I have a friend who is not very savvy with computers. He works on a PC. (There may be versions for pc OS versions) I use a Mac-your website will not show the PC pages to me. How can I find the proper URL to embed in a button?

Try going to the following
Tools->Web Developer-> Page Source.
You can also access this by way of keyboard shortcut Ctrl + U
The View Page Source option is also available via the right-click menu by just right-clicking inside the page window & it will be the penultimate menu item.

I bought the Mac version of Premiere Elements, can I get the Windows version for free or cheap with my serial number?

I bought the Mac version of Premiere Elements, can I get the Windows version for free or cheap with my serial number? I'm about to migrate back to PC soon and I'd love to not have to buy the program again since I just bought it. Under my order history though it only shows it for Mac so I wanted to make sure.

The boxed packaging is not sold by Adobe direct. If you want to explore that type of purchase which offers the perk of a Windows and a Mac installation disc, you need to purchase from an authorized reseller who is not going to offer you "upgraded pricing". The seller would be its own entity with its own pricing and own return/refund policy. Sometimes the authorized reseller price may be less than the Adobe"upgraded pricing".
Did you purchase your Premiere Elements 13 Mac from Adobe direct and are within 30 days of purchase? If so, you can contact Adobe Chat Orders to ask for return/refund. And, then you can explore the authorized resellers for pricing and availability of the box packaging. Maybe check out the pricing all around before making any final decisions.
Please review and consider.
Thank you.

You need to run a platform swap:

Until it's through, you can use the trial version.
