Why does Acrobat suddenly not work on my Mac (won't open pdf files from a web page), yet I can open them from my iPhone? Everything worked fine yesteray.

Hello:
I have a Mac running OS 10.8.5 and I use Acrobat Pro and Acrobat Reader. Today for some reason, any time I try and access a pdf file from a web page, it won't open. I get a blank window. PDF files already on my computer open fine and I can create PDF files from Word docs, but I can't download or view any pdf file from any web page. Strangely, PDF files on web pages open just fine on my iPhone.
I checked that both my copy of Acrobat Pro and Acrobat Reader are up-to-date. They are.
I checked that my copy of Firefox is up-to-date. It is. And nothing changed with Firefox within the last 24 hours.
I am a humble computer end-user. I am baffled as to why this would suddenly not work. I have not changed any settings, etc. Any help or suggestions would be greatly appreciated.

Thank you.
I checked your instructions you sent and as far as I can tell all of my settings, etc for Firefox (plugin updates and preferences) are correct but I am having the same problem.
However, everything works in Safari. I don't have time to attempt to diagnose why Firefox no longer works. I will just switch to Safari.
Many thanks.

New iMac user alert * how do I separate RAW files from jpeg files in iPhoto? So that I can open them in cs5?

I installed cs5 last night, and I am trying to open just the raw files that I imported into iphoto, but cant seem to find a way to separate them. In ps, when I go to open them up, they all appear as if they are jpegs, even though they sit in pairs (jpeg and raw). Any help would be great! I am a new mac user, and I think I am in way over my head here. I didnt think this would be that tough, I usually adapt to software pretty well. thanks!!! Oh and any other links that you could recommend to me would be wonderful...seeing as though I am going to need the help!!!

There is an advanced option to send the raw file. Root through the preferences. You can also export (to the desktop, say) and set the kind to original.
To *find* your raw files you can use a smart album.

How Do I Quickly Find Music Files Not Used By iTunes So I Can Delete Them?

Hello, I have deleted many songs from my Windows iTunes library; but, the music files remain on my hard drive and are taking up space. I need to quickly and efficiently find these music files to delete them. I would prefer to not have to download another utility to accomplish this.
While I now have iTunes setup so that any future deletions will prompt me to move the music file to the recycle bin, I want to clean-up my hard drive.
Thanks in advance for your help!

How did you Migrate? On original Startup, or after starting up and creating a user.
If the latter, then you migrated data is in the migrated user's account.
If that is the case, log into the other account and move the music into the /Users/Shared folder. Then, log into the account you want to use and import the music into iTunes.
If that is not the case, please explain where your music is located.

Files not previewing or opening from external drives

Having some issues after updating my iMac to Mavericks this morning - some files stored on networked drives area not opening, I just get a message saying 'application cannot be found' whenever I open a PDF, JPEG, DOC, AI, PSD ....anything!
The enclosed folders are all visable but the files will not open, either by double clicking on them, dragging onto the relevant application in my toolbar or going through the 'select an application to open this file' options. i get the same message. cover view or thumbnail view just shows blank paper icons.
worked fine before the update but not any more...any ideas? mac was bought from new 4 months ago.

I've seen a similar behaviour with an external drive. I was able to move any file I'd like into the trash but then it didn't show up in the trash bin in the dock. So I wasn't able to erase those files completely from the disk. I used the Midnight Commander (mc) within a terminal window with superuser rights (sudo mc) and found the deleted files in /Volumes/ExternalHD/.Trashes/501. The problem, I guess, was a wrong owner/group setting of the .Trashes folder on the external drive. I changed them to the same values as the .Trahses folder on my local drive and restarted the Finder. Since then everything is ok. Perhaps you can try the same, but no guarantee, that it will work! Do it on your own risk...!
Before you start, you should remember the actual values of owner/group/permissions of the .Trashes folder, in case you have to go back to the current state, if the following doesn't help. Much better would be a backup of the .Trashes folder of your external HD. Here on my system the owner of .Trashes is "root", group is "staff" and the permissions are "d-wx-wx-wt". You can change the owner/group in the terminal with the command "sudo chown root:staff /Volumes/Your-External-HD/.Trashes" and the permissions with the command "sudo chmod 41333 /Volumes/Your-External-HD/.Trashes". "Your-External-HD" should be replaced by the name of your external drive and you will be asked for your login-password to execute the sudo command. To "activate" the new settings you have to restart the Finder: cmd+alt+esc => select "Finder" press "restart".
Good luck!

My Music File is not visable in itunes however I can see i in windows explorer in the itunes media file under music how do i make it visable again in itunes?

Drag the music from the iTunes media Folder into iTunes.
Use iTunes to Add Folder to Library. Use the ALT key, followwd by the F key and then the D key (that's File/Add Folder to Library) and navigate to the folder and select.

I have CS2. I shot RAW files with my Nikon D90 and now cannot open them in PS. I heard there was a plug-in to download for this, but cannot find it. Help?

I have CS2. I shot RAW files with my Nikon D90 and now cannot open them in PS. I heard there was a plug-in to download for this, but cannot find it. Help?

You would need at least CS3 with ACR 4.6 to natively edit NEFs from a D90 in PS:

It might also work to use the DNG Converter 4.6 or newer to convert the NEF files to DNGs and then those might open in your older CS2 ACR, but I’m not sure, since it’s a 9 year old program I haven’t used in years.
The DNG Converter can be found, here:

When i open my Canon RAW-files with preview or transfer them to another program using preview they change to color despite the fact that they where all shot in B/W... How to change this?

When i open my Canon RAW-files with preview or transfer them to another program using preview they change to color despite the fact that they where all shot in B/W... How to change this?

I shoot only RAW - no JPEG-files except those visualizing the files on my memorycard or computer. I think i have to refine my question;
1. I know there is possible to make B/W HDR-images.
2. I know the best HDR images are based on RAW-files.
3. When i transfer the images in question to a HDR software they change, so when i view them in the software (either Preview or the HDR software) they are suddenly viewed (and processed) in color.
4. This never happend on my PC so i know it has to do with either Finder or Preview.
5. Do i have to make all my B/W HDR-images on the PC or is it a way for me to change how Finder/Preview show/alter my images?

I've had the same issue for 6 months. I worked with Apple reps who fiddled with my iphone 5, Airport Express and Imac settings. NOTHING worked. Then today, I called Apple yet again and by accident found something no rep had mentioned: there's an option to snyc your phone to your wifi. How do you find it?
1. Connect your phone to your computer using the usb port (take off the electric plug on iphone cord).
2. Open up iTunes (you don't need to be connected to internet).
3. If you don't see a side bar with a menu, then hit View, Show sidebar. Now under "Devices" choose your iphone.
4. A large window with a menu of options appears. One box says "Sync with this iPhone over Wifi."
Check that box. WHY DID NO ONE EVER TELL ME TO DO THIS???
I saved that change, rebooted my computer, and for the first time since I've owned my phone, instead of telling me it's unable to join my home network, it actually let me put in my network password and hooked into Wifi.
Now, will this last? We'll see tomorrow. Let me know if this works for you!

I have an Iphone 4, I have music files that appear on my phone that I want to delete, when I link it to my computer the songs on the phone will not appear in Itunes so I can delete them, Is there any way to delete these song off the phone without going through Itunes?

Nope, it either needs to be plugged in or turned on with the power button.
A replacement iPhone 4 is $149, but at least the whole phone is replaced.

I have to upload files from pagemaker 6.5 but no one can open them.

I have a lot of files (posters, brochures, etc) created in pagemaker 6.5. I try to send them to graphics services but no one can open them. They all want pdf files but acrobat will not convert the p6.5 documents. Any suggestions. Or is pagemaker out lived its usefulness and I should get another program.

Everything you need is on the PM Setup CD. However, PM6.5 is ten years so if you are using WinXP SP3, expect problems.
There's some advice here, but it relates to PM7 and Win2K (which indicates it's no longer current). ISTR that you cannot simply copy/extract Distiller because Adobe are very protective of it.
Installing and Setting Up PM7's Export… Adobe PDF… using the “Application” CD-ROM
and here: Install Distiller from the PM7 application CD

How do I save PSD files created in windows so MAC users can open and work

I have been designing photoshop files for sale to photographers online and all of my work has been created in a windows 7 system. I had a photographer contact me saying that the PSD was trouble to open and that the fonts would not work on his MAC computer.
Can someone supply me with information on creating/saving windows PSD files so that a MAC user can open them and also use the fonts I supply with the files.
The files I create are multilayered PSD's and contain fonts for windows PC use and I don't want to exclude MAC users from utilizing my work.
Any help appriciated.
Bqwhitten

Just save. There is no difference in files between platforms.
There are some Windows-centric font formats that aren't portable, by any OpenType or TrueType font will be portable between platforms.
