The Help system cannot be launched....

I purchased a copy of DW CS6 a few days ago, and installed it yesterday. It seems to be working ok, but I cannot use the help system. I did a search on google and found this:
http://helpx.adobe.com/dreamweaver/kb/error-help-system-cannot-launched.html
I followed the steps as best I could, but it hasn't fixed the problem.
am I overlooking something?

I've received that error before, and although the error message is completely wrong, the cause was that I was not connected to the Internet.
When you press F1 (or go to Help > Dreamweaver Help), Dreamweaver tries to connect to the product documentation online; if it can connect to it, it opens your browser to the main topics page. If it can't connect, then it tries to open the local PDF file of the documentation instead.
I got this error because I did not yet have the local PDF file, which may be the cause for you as well.
This forum thread, along with its associated KB article, explain how to correct this:
http://forums.adobe.com/thread/1007704
Essentially, connect to the Internet, use the Help Manager (look for the shortcut in the Start Menu called "Adobe Help") to download the PDF, then you can disconnect from the Internet again.

  • I get the message "The application "Finder" cannot be launched. -600  Read

    For the last couple of days my G5 was not shutting down, so had to hold in front power button, manual sleep sometimes refused to wake and applications failed to quit. and yesterday i got the following error.
    I get the message "The application "Finder" cannot be launched. -600
    A reboot got things working for a bit, but on opening 'TextEdit' a document that had locked up before the reboot was displayed, on trying to save the file 'TextEdit' locked up again, trying to do a 'Preview' 'Grab' of the screen worked but then locked up 'Preview'.
    So i booted into 'Safe Boot' logged in, did a virus scan using ClamXav just for piece of mind.
    I opened 'TextEdit' and the same document opened as before yet i still could not save it. So i rebooted.
    After reboot i opened 'TextEdit' and again the previous document appeared and this time i was able to save it. And so far no apps have failed to open or quit.
    My question is, i know prior to booting into 'Safe Boot' the system fixes somethings, what does it 'fix'?
    I did run the ASD (not the AHT) disk and all was ok, so thought it should be a software issue, on running TechTool Pro4 i did notice 'Finder' errors which i set to fix (just opened TechTool Pro4 and it has locked up but did 'Force Quit' unlike 'TextEdit' which has just failed to even 'Force Quit')
    On looking in on the 'Console Messages' i have seen as below:

    I have an image on a firewire caddy (which has 10.5.8 bootable on it) so i can easily erase the boot drive and image back but i want to understand what is actually happening.
    Is it worth running AppleJack 1.5 or similar?
    You advice is appreciated.

    Hi there,
    My question is, i know prior to booting into 'Safe Boot' the system fixes somethings, what does it 'fix'?
    In Tiger/10.4.x it disables Startup/Login Items, clears Font Caches, tries to repair the HD. loads Safe Drives, disables Airport & Quartz.
    In Leo/10.5 it does more, but doesn't disable Airport, which now has a Sfe Driver I presume.
    I suspect From the Console post that perhaps SAfe Boot repaired the HD, but of course that doesn't take care of any corruption done while it was muxed.
    Run Disk Utility & Verify the HD, it at least will tell us something.
    Is it worth running AppleJack 1.5 or similar?
    Assuredly, AppleJack is great & won't hurt, & will eliminate a lot of questions if not the problem.

  • When I click on the iconI get a message that the application firefox cannot be launched 10661

    I click on the icon on the dock and I get a message that says the application firefox cannot be launched 10661

    Firefox 4 requires at least OS X 10.5 and an Intel Mac. There is a third party version of Firefox 4 that runs on OS X 10.4/10.5 and PPC Macs, for details see http://www.floodgap.com/software/tenfourfox

  • The application "whatever" cannot be launched.  -10810  Getting this error.

    On Friday, I ran into a issue where I can't launch new programs from the dock.
    When I try to launch something, it gives me an error message. The application "Firefox" cannot be launched. -10810.
    I end up having to reboot the whole computer. Then I can start programs again.
    But after half an hour, the issue is back and I am getting the error again.
    I am typically running Mail, Safari 3.1, Parallels, newest Firefox and Adium (newest version).
    I can't really relate it to any specific single program that is causing the problems.
    What does that error message mean?
    Anyone have any ideas?
    I already installed the new firmware update today, hoping that would magically fix it. But it didn't help.
    I have all the latest apple updates for the computer installed, and Leopard.
    Help, anyone?

    I went into console, and there were hundreds of these messages:

    So does that mean that Mail is hanging on something and causing all of the problems?
    Any ideas?

  • The application "iTunes" cannot be launched. -600

    Suddenly my iTunes refuses to launch. It just sits in the dock like it is running, but no window. And if I try to Force Quit it, it remains in the dock.
    If I try to launch iTunes again, it gives me an error: *The application “iTunes” cannot be launched. -600*
    Not really useful.
    I don't have that Intego something installed that could give this error. I tried installing the 10.5.1 update downloaded from apple.com. I repaired permissions several times. Moved all iTunes prefs out of Preferences. Renamed the iTunes folder in ~/Music. Downloaded and installed iTunes.
    Still no go.
    But then, just as Im writing this. I realize I have an iPod Shuffle sitting in its dock, connected to my iMac. I just tried unplugging it, and of course iTunes starts right away. Whod've thunk?
    Looking through Console. I did find this:
    *20/11/07 23.53.19 kernel comapple_driveriPodSBC::setPowerState(0x5da7b00, 3 -> 4) timed out after 100129 ms *

  • Why does reindex documents at Server in the Configuration Manager break the help system?

    Background:
    So, I have a nice hosted help system on Server 9. I'm using the Access database since it's a light load project. It works OK. All admin features work OK (except groups and users bug, unrelated), including reports on search and usage. So, I have been having a devil of a time making a particular search term work in my project: UTS. It's an acronym for a system at my work, and it's important that users be able to search on it. UTS is in several Heading 1s. It's not in the stop list as a typo. Just to be sure, I deleted the whole stop list. I added "UTS" as a topic keyword. It still refuses to find any results. Also, I've noticed some other peculiarities with search: the "context" displayed below the search result is supposed to show the word you searched for in its context, but it never does in my search results. It just shows the first words of the document it's listed as a hit in search. The search is not bad, but these two bugs were odd enough to me to start rooting around for solutions.
    So, I run Server 9 on Windows Server 2008 R2 with Tomcat 7 and JDK 7u17.
    The problem:
    I noticed in all the Server documentation that Adobe crows about the wonderful full text search powered by Lucene, and how it's checked "on" by default in all contexts. It's not in mine. When I check "reindex documents at server," it breaks the project. Literally--Server can't find the project anymore, web calls come back with no answer. Uncheck the box, A-OK. So, why is this wonderful search technology not available to me? Is it because it's not available when using default Access? Or is something else going on here?
    many thanks in advance.

    The problem is that my data collection software (VisualPlant by EMT) is unable to browse to the National Instruments.LookoutOPCServer. When I added an Identification category to the registry entry for the lookout OPC server I was able to connect but with some odd behavior. My setup is:
    2 machines each running Win NT4 SP6a. One machine is running Lookout as well as several other OPC servers. The other is running my data collection software. I am able to connect to lookout using several client apps on my data collection machine (Kepware's Quick Client, and Matrikon's Client), however my data collection software (VisualPlant) cannot see Lookout. Using the NI server explorer and viewing the properties of all of my OPC servers I noticed that Lookout was the on
    ly one listed that did not have a CatID. By modifying the registry and adding the ID's listed in my original note I was able to connect using VisualPlant, however this exibited some odd behavior. It appears that adding this setting prevents multiple OPC connections to Lookout. If you have any suggestions I would greatly appreciate it.
    Thanks.

  • Mac Pro running 10.5 "The application 'application' cannot be launched" ?

    I have a 2 x 2.66Ghz Dual-Core Mac Pro tower with VMFusion to run Windows XP. For a while now, when the computer has slept a while, not already open applications cannot be opened with error message The application "whatever" cannot be opened -10810. Do I need to clean the machine? What do I do?

    Several solutions have been suggested here. If nothing is successful then try this:
    How to Perform an Archive and Install
    An Archive and Install will NOT erase your hard drive, but you must have sufficient free space for a second OS X installation which could be from 3-9 GBs depending upon the version of OS X and selected installation options. The free space requirement is over and above normal free space requirements which should be at least 6-10 GBs. Read all the linked references carefully before proceeding.
    1. Be sure to use Disk Utility first to repair the disk before performing the Archive and Install.
    Repairing the Hard Drive and Permissions
    Boot from your OS X Installer disc. After the installer loads select your language and click on the Continue button. When the menu bar appears select Disk Utility from the Installer menu (Utilities menu for Tiger.) After DU loads select your hard drive entry (mfgr.'s ID and drive size) from the the left side list. In the DU status area you will see an entry for the S.M.A.R.T. status of the hard drive. If it does not say "Verified" then the hard drive is failing or failed. (SMART status is not reported on external Firewire or USB drives.) If the drive is "Verified" then select your OS X volume from the list on the left (sub-entry below the drive entry,) click on the First Aid tab, then click on the Repair Disk button. If DU reports any errors that have been fixed, then re-run Repair Disk until no errors are reported. If no errors are reported, then quit DU and return to the installer.
    2. Do not proceed with an Archive and Install if DU reports errors it cannot fix. In that case use Disk Warrior and/or TechTool Pro to repair the hard drive. If neither can repair the drive, then you will have to erase the drive and reinstall from scratch.
    3. Boot from your OS X Installer disc. After the installer loads select your language and click on the Continue button. When you reach the screen to select a destination drive click once on the destination drive then click on the Option button. Select the Archive and Install option. You have an option to preserve users and network preferences. Only select this option if you are sure you have no corrupted files in your user accounts. Otherwise leave this option unchecked. Click on the OK button and continue with the OS X Installation.
    4. Upon completion of the Archive and Install you will have a Previous System Folder in the root directory. You should retain the PSF until you are sure you do not need to manually transfer any items from the PSF to your newly installed system.
    5. After moving any items you want to keep from the PSF you should delete it. You can back it up if you prefer, but you must delete it from the hard drive.
    6. You can now download a Combo Updater directly from Apple's download site to update your new system to the desired version as well as install any security or other updates. You can also do this using Software Update.

  • The Help system sucks so badly it's unbelievable!

    Sorry,
    I don't usually rant on these forums.
    But it is unbelievable how badly things work when you hit F1 in an Adobe application these days.
    The actualy help content, if and when you can find it, is okay.
    But getting there is the worst experience possible.
    I've been using the Creative Suite since CS2. The CS2 Help Center was a dream compared to anything we've got now.
    Here's a case study:
    Using Acrobat XI, with Hebrew support (this is now a 100% Adobe product -- no Winsoft involved).
    Searching unsuccessfully for the Measurement tool (know where it is in Acrobat 7, can't find it in XI).
    Click on Help.
    Get taken to a website that's all in Hebrew. Did I ask to be given help in Hebrew? No. The user interface of Acrobat is in English, thanks..
    I type "measurement tool" in the search box on that help page. Get taken to some stupid search-results page about Photoshop!
    For crying out loud!?!
    Go back to the F1 page.
    See, in Hebrew, that there is an option to change language. Change it to English. Just changing the language takes me to what looks like the Adobe home page.
    So I go to the Acrobat Product help. Type in "measurement tool". Get a bunch of pathetic search results from the "Adobe community".
    This is unbelievably pathetic.
    In CS2, you press F1. A very nice Help Center opens -- full of offline content.
    It used to have an INDEX!! (Hooray!)
    Do you realise how much better a man-made index is than search results will ever be!
    If I had an index, I would look up "Measurement tool" and that would be the end of it.
    I do not need online content by default.
    AARGH!
    I know why this is happening, too: I beta-tested a number of CS6 products for the MENA program. The HELP is NEVER ready during beta. So at least the MENA help system has not been beta-tested. Fact.
    This sucks very badly.
    Thanks for reading.

    I don't think I said I time my device and turn it off.  I said it usually takes no longer than an hour. 
    And as for leaving items charging over night I suggest you search not even google! but this forum to find cases of fires caused by iphone charging ... Taking the risk of leaving it plugged in just because 99.9 % of the time it'll be ok or because you have been doing it for years is not a risk ill be taking with mine and my family's life.   Dramatic .. Maybe... A reality yes.  Lets face it I can't claim off an insurance underwriter if I'm dead can I
    I can only assume then that you unplug every single electronic device in your home then and cut power to all internal wiring as well, as many appliances, lights and so forth, not to mention many building's internal wiring, have a far greater risk of electrical fire than most modern solid state electronic devices.
    There are now, hundreds of millions of iPhones used around the world by now, and they are not spontaineously combusting at anything even remotely approaching a frequency to cause concern.

  • Firefox icon has a white "no" symbol (circle with diagonal line from top left to bottom right) superimposed over it. Clicking it yields: "The application 'Firefox' cannot be launched" followed by: "-10661"

    I’m a novice and a Mac user. Don’t know computer lingo. About a week ago, while working at computer, I received repeated unsolicited messages, presumably from Firefox, to update to Firefox 4.0. I attempted to comply by clicking, but maybe clicked something wrong and now can’t open Firefox. Hope I don’t lose all my bookmarks. Advice welcome.
    Possibly unrelated - highlighting the icon then clicking “Get Info” yields “Kind: Application (Intel)”. Only mentioning this because, being an “iMac G5 / PowerMac8,2 / PowerPC G5 (3.0) / Version 10.4.11”, this computer doesn’t have Intel processors.
    Thanks

    You're welcome.
    Please click the '''Helpful''' button next to the answer that solved your Firefox support issue, '''when you are logged in''', so this thread gets marked as '''Solved''' to help other users who may have this same problem.

  • The "Help" system

    I'm having a "***" moment here.
    I'm struggling with the "snap mode" setting (it won't stay 'on'/remember my current selection). So I do a search for "snap" via the "Help" menu. Why doesn't it display Logic-specific items? The Help Menu action is highlighting menu actions that match the search criteria and then general Mac help, but isn't showing my any Logic-specific information. I've verified this by searching on a large number of terms (i.e. Tempo, MIDI, etc.).
    Is this standard behavior? Any ideas?

    Do the same search in the Logic PDF manual within Logic and you will get a lot of answers.

  • Can anyone get the help system to work?

    I am trialling PSE 8 using a Windows 7 64bit machine.
    Whenever I select help - either from the main menu or anywhere else in the product it just crashes.
    As far as I can see this software does not work and I wondered if anyone had an luck with it. The Adobe support system doesnt seem to want to take questions from trial customers as PSE8 is not listed when trying to contact support - I guess that means they know it doesnt work and dont want to have lots of questions.
    Very frustrated with this product at the moment

    My suggestion will be to revert back changes done for doc id 1418876.1. We have also experienced the same issue with this change.
    Perform the steps as per below doc based on if you have issue with Global Scheduled Services or Project Publications
    P6 Global Scheduled Services Are Stuck In A "Running" State [ID 1400104.1]
    P6 Project Data Is Not Being Published Via The Publication Services [ID 1333858.1]
    The steps in above document has addressed our issue in achieving near real time publication of the project. Rest depend on the values you specify in Application settings. Running publication services too frequently does have impact on server load.

  • Code page of the receiving system cannot be found?

    Hi,
    I am sending Idocs from SAP ECC 6.0 System to Siebel System for message type ORDERS. All the idocs are failing and are in 02 Status.
    We have already implemented OSS Note mentioned for this particular error, but still the error persists. So, can you one let me know what could be the reason why Idocs are failing and what needs to be done in order to avoid this type of error in future once again.
    Raghuram.

    Hi john,
    Have a look at this thread:
    "Could not determine code page" inbound side error
    This could be usefull.

  • "the application "iphoto" cannot be launched -10828"

    i did nothing previous to this in order for iphoto to be acting up, i have no idea what i may have done. ut this is the window that pops up everytime i try to use the application. i've downloaded the iphoto '09 support but still, nothing.
    help please!

    Welcome to the Apple Discussions.
    Start with the troubleshooting basics:
    1. Delete the com.apple.iPhoto.plist file from the HD/Users/ Your Name / library / preferences folder. (Remember you'll need to reset your User options afterwards. These include minor settings like the window colour and so on. Note: If you've moved your library you'll need to point iPhoto at it again.)
    2. Repair Permissions using Disk Utility
    3. Create a new account (systempreferences -> accounts) and see if the problem is repeated there. If it is, then a re-install of the app might be indicated. If it's not, then it's likely the app is okay and the problem is something in the main account.
    Regards

  • The camera on my ipad cannot be launched,the shutter appears closed and the button for taking a picture is not there. When tryying to use intsgram the message camera cannot be launched appears .tried to restart but problem still there

    My camera is not working .shutter appears closed.tried to restart ipad but problem still there.no problem with photo booth problem with istangram

    Try closing the Camera app via the taskbar and see if it works properly when you re-open the app : from the home screen (i.e. not with the Camera app 'open' on-screen) double-click the home button to bring up the taskbar, then press and hold any of the apps on the taskbar for a couple of seconds or so until they start shaking, then press the '-' in the top left of the Camera app to close it, and touch any part of the screen above the taskbar so as to stop the shaking and close the taskbar.
    And by restart do you mean a soft-reset : press and hold both the sleep and home buttons for about 10 to 15 seconds (ignore the red slider), after which the Apple logo should appear (you won't lose any content, it's the iPad equivalent of a reboot). If not, and if closing the app doesn't fix it, then you could try that.
