Recommendations for computer/workstation (PC or Mac, undecided) for ALL of Adobe CC (2014) apps.

I will be purchasing a computer/workstation (PC or Mac, undecided) and want it to meet* the system requirements for ALL of the Adobe CC (2014) apps. I would like computer/workstation recommendations and would also appreciate any specific thoughts on CPU, RAM and GPU. I would prefer to spend $1500 or less, but would consider spending more if it's justifiable. Thanks!!!
...*not just meet, but also have extra headroom.

Have you received any feedback regarding this issue and reasonable resolution?
InDesign CC 2014 is proving to be a mess for me. It will work for a while, then it won't. I can only use the task manager to close the file. I've followed all of the suggestions for disabling, resetting, preferences, settings, etc. I continue to have horribly slow performance, or no performance at all.
Interestingly, I now have an issue with fonts. Fonts installed on my computer work great in one file. In another file, the exact same fonts, with the exact same paragraph and character settings can't be found for some reason. When I attempt to replace the font a prompt displays that the font can't be found. It can be found in another file, very perplexing.
So far today, I've spent three hours trying to make a file change that should have taken me 15 minutes at the longest.
What is going on with this version? This is a ridiculous way to do business. What happened to trouble shooting and caring about the end product? This is frustrating and my confidence in Adobe has been depleted. The company I work for was looking to upgrade to Adobe CC for all 65 marketing and graphics personnel, I can't recommend that now.
Any new information on how to deal with these issues would be greatly appreciated.

What r the appropriate softs or app for a 10.7.5 mac pro for pics or movies?

I just found out my mac pro desktop cant go further thatn 10.7.5 version due to its processor, thank you. is there any or what way should i go to get the old versions of imovie, ilife, iphoto u know what i mean

If you do get an iLife 11 disk and install iPhoto it will be v9.0. You can run v9.4.3 so you'll need to use the following updaters to get to it:
update to iPhoto 2.1
update to iPhoto 9.2.1
update to iPhoto 9.3
update to iPhoto 9.3.2
update to iPhoto 9.4
and finally to iPhoto 9.4.

On Mac OS 10.9 with Adobe CC 2014, preview icons not displaying

We've had increasing problems with icons in Photoshop, ever since CS6. We're now on PS CC 2014 and the latest MAC OS 10.9, and the issue with icons is becoming unbearable! We simply can't find things anymore, and it's starting to really be a problem.
At first it was just the little tiny preview icon in the title bar that disappeared and just shows a generic icon. But now the finder preview is not showing correctly with PSD files, and TIF files created in Photoshop. We thought it might be an OS issue, so we followed steps to delete the com.apple.preview.plst file and restart. But the problem persists. HOWEVER, if I open one of these files in GIMP, and then save, the icon comes back. Open the same file in PS and the icon disappears again.
Any idea how to fix this? It's driving us nuts.

Chris
Why is it that when I re-save a TIF file in GIMP that I get an image preview, but not with Adobe PS?
You've been blaming this on Apple since CS6 and over the versions I've grown to really resent your response on this forum.
Why does GIMP, a free program save thumbnails correctly but the most expensive image editing program cannot?
I'd at least like an answer to the GIMP question. Why does it work and PS does not?

Is 2 gig of ram enough for a 2011 2,3 ghz mac mini for doing some games? Like GTA IV

Is the standard 2GB of ram enough for a 2011 2,3GHz Mac Mini for doing games? Like GTA IV.
Or do I even have to go for the faster 2,5GHz model?

I have a MacMini Late 2011 with 2.3 GHz I5 and 4GB RAM and I use it as media center... It's enough to play FullHD movies but it uses 256 on 512 MB of (shared)RAM... I don't think that you can use a mini for hard gaming...
But AngryBirds Space on a 60" FullHD TV looks great

welcome to discussions... i'm a newbie too

The security database on the server does not have a computer account for this workstation trust relationship

When I try to log on to my DC it says "The security database on the server does not have a computer account for this workstation trust relationship". It won't let me log on. I installed another server server 2012r2 (its virtual )
and I can get to ADSI edit.
I think what happened was I had a pc that could not connect without unplugging the network cable. So I found this fix
FIX: “The security database on the server does not have a computer account for this workstation trust relationship”2032011
I’ve seen a lot of solutions, or suggestions rather, with regard to the error in the title of this post. In my experience, the problem can almost always be resolved without extra domain add/removes and reboots, which is the most prevalent solution I have
seen around. Usually, this issue is due to a mismatch between attributes of the computer account in Active Directory and those values on the system itself. Here are the steps I take to fix this issue when it crops up:
Open up Active Directory Users & Computers pointed to the domain the computer account resides in
From the “View” pull-down menu, make sure that “Advanced Features” is checked
Navigate to the part of your organizational unit (OU) structure where the computer account for this server resides
Open the Properties for the computer object
Choose the “Attribute Editor” tab on the Properties dialog box
Check the Attributes dNSHostName & servicePrincipalName – anywhere that a fully qualified hostname is specified (e.g. myserver.mydomainname.com), make sure that the entry matches the hostname
you have configured when you go here on your server: Start -> Computer -> Right-Click, Properties -> Change Settings (under “Computer name, domain… settings”) -> Full Computer Name
As an example, for a fictitious W2K8 R2 server whose Full Computer Name is “srv1.mydomainname.com”, these attribute/value pairs should be in Active Directory:
dNSHostName:
srv1.mydomainname.com
servicePrincipalName:
HOST/SRV1
HOST/srv1.mydomainname.com
RestrictedKrbHost/SRV1
RestrictedKrbHost/srv1.mydomainname.com
TERMSRV/SRV1
TERMSRV/srv1.mydomainname.com"
Not reading it carefully I add a computer with the same name as the pc having the issue and followed the above. The problem is that I did not notice that the spn did not want the name of my server (serv1) but the name of the trouble
pc.

Congratulations on the new Mini. Are you saying you tried burning and it does not play, or do you want to burn it only for the computer to be able to play it?

You an use your iPhone without connecting it to a computer.
But the product description for the iPhone clearly states that in order to sync with a Mac you must have OSX 10.6.8 or later. That version of the OSX is usually called Snow Leopard. There are two mo recent versions of OSX. OSX 10.7.x (Lion) and OSX 10.8.x (Mountain Lion).
If you can upgrade your computer to at least Snow Leopard I suggest you do so.

What did Apple tell you about what they did (or did not) find here?
See if working on the main disk is any faster.
USB2 is glacial, as I/O interconnects go. And USB2 disks have been known to fail, or sometimes to drop back to USB1 speeds, too. FireWire 800 is substantially faster than USB2, but still not as fast as the internal drive connections can provide.
Put another way, start varying your configuration, and see which configuration changes (still) have the problem, and which don't.

I got a new computer with Windows but have Photoshop for mac?

So, long story short, I recently switched from mac to windows and have Adobe Photoshop CS5 installed on my (old) mac.
I would like to install Photoshop CS5 on my new computer. Do I need a new activation code, or, more importantly, do I need to purchase Photoshop again since I have the mac version?
Thanks in advance to anyone who replies with advice.

Recommended software for file transferring offline between Mac 10.5.8 and iPhone 5?

I have an iPhone 5 and a Mac OS X 10.5.8 therefore I am unable to sync my iPhone with iTunes on my laptop.
I am looking for software which will allow me to transfer files to and fro between my iPhone and Mac without access to the internet.
I realise that I can import photos from my iPhone to my Mac computer through iPhoto but I would like to do the opposite of putting photos from my Mac onto my iPhone. I have found answers of using such software such as Dropbox but it seems that I would need to connect my Mac to the internet, which I am unable to do. I would also like to import music from my Mac onto my iPhone if possible.
Are there any software or programs that allows me to do this offline by simply plugging my iPhone to my Mac via the USB port? I would be willing to purchase a program at a decent price so long as it is cheaper than having to buy a new Mac computer!
I would be thankful for any advice.
Cheers.

What about updating your Mac to OS X 10.6.8? That's only US $20 from Apple.

I've just migrated my Logic Pro 9.1.8 to a new Mac because my old computer crashed. They are asking for a serial number, but I don't have the install disks anymore. Is there someplace in the software itself that I can find the serial number?

Hello, I'm pretty sure my fan on my 2009 mac book pro has stopped running. Would this cause the computer to slow down and take for ever to boot up and show the color wheel every time I select an application ?

thanks

Not directly, but if the CPU overheats because of incompatible software, that would cause slowdowns. Do not allow the computer to run if the fan is not working unless you wish to fry your motherboard. Please make a Genius Appointment and take it in for service.
