Trouble opening programs since upgrading to yosemite

I am having trouble opening programs since upgrading to Yosemite.

CS 6 or Photoshop 6. CS6 is version 13, Photoshop 6 is super ancient history.
Either way CS6 should work in Yosemite but not officially supported by Adobe any longer.
Are you trying to navigate to a location that is not there like a disconnected drive?
Photoshop tries to remember the last location you opened from
close photoshop
open Macintosh HD:Applications:Adobe
find the Photoshop folder or photoshop.app inside the folder, wherever you installed it
hold down ctrl+opt+shift+cmd and click on the photoshop icon as you are holding these down
when the prompt comes up to reset preferences click okay
you can't do this from the dock icon or an alias btw.
if that does not work
create a new admin account,
boot to that account
run photoshop,
if it works there is a problem with your old account and possibly corruption.

IPhoto does not open library since upgrade to Yosemite

Upgraded to Yosemite 10.10. When iPhoto is opened, no library or screen appears and there are no contents in the toolbar items. I can locate the pictures in Finder but I want iPhoto to open directly. It appears that there are others that have had this problem.

Have you updated iPhoto to version 9.6? If not, then update. Only iPhoto 9.6 is full compatible with Yosemite.
If your versions already current, reinstall. Delete iPhoto from the Applications folder and download it again from the Purchased tab of the appStore. It may not have downloaded correctly.

Hi,
Can you please share some details about the crash you are facing?
Did you try installing the latest ADE (4.0.2) and checked if this issue is still present?
Does ADE crashes on all the "acsm/epub" files you open? or some particular one only?
Did you try to open any other e-book? If no, I will suggest that you right click on the book and open it with ADE and see if it works?
If ADE still crashes, then please share the latest crashlog as well.

Since upgrading to Yosemite I cannot get directly to Netflix. I get a message about having to download Microsoft Silverlight. I can't get that to work and don't want it anyway. I just want to open Netflix and play the movies. What should I do?

Since upgrading to Yosemite I cannot get directly to Netflix. I get a to Netflix and there is a big message about having to download/install Microsoft Silverlight. I can't get that to work and don't want it anyway. I just want to open Netflix and play the movies. What should I do?

I can't get that to work and don't want it anyway.
You need Silverlight. That is the application that plays the Netflix movies.

Can't open Word Excel or Powerpoint since upgrade to Yosemite

Since upgrading to Yosemite I am unable to open Word Excel and Powerpoint

I'm not sure if you exactly mean what you mean.
Are you not able to save an attachement or are you not able to download a file?
For the first case: is the attachement showing up in Mail? If so, what happens when simply clicking on the attachement?
For the second case: check your download-location configured in Safari to ensure you save to a directory available for write-access.

Since upgrading to Yosemite I can't open Illustrator CS6

Since upgrading to Yosemite I can't open Illustrator CS6 - it gives me an error message saying I need to install Java SE 6.
Of course I have no idea where or how to find the downgrade to legacy Java SE 6 and eveyrtime I put the error into your search bar I get a Dreamweaver How to install Java SE 6 note.... and If I could apply that advice to my illustrator error I would but I don't get an option to install ...
SIGH I need this to work now-this is my lively hood

Since upgrading to Yosemite I am getting frequently "safari can't open the page (blank) because the server unexpectedly dropped the connection this sometimes occurs when the server is busy. wait and then try again"

Since upgrading to Yosemite on my iMac I am frequently getting "safari can't open the page (blank) because the server unexpectedly dropped the connection this sometimes occurs when the server is busy. wait and then try again". This is with both a WiFi and Ethernet connection. The server is working fine from other devices using WiFi onto it such as iPhones, iPads, MacBook (which is also on Yosemite) so don't believe its an issue with the server.
I am also noticing page load very slowly when this problem is not occurring.

Please read this whole message before doing anything.
This procedure is a test, not a solution. Don’t be disappointed when you find that nothing has changed after you complete it.
Step 1
The purpose of this step is to determine whether the problem is localized to your user account.
Enable guest logins* and log in as Guest. Don't use the Safari-only “Guest User” login created by “Find My Mac.”
While logged in as Guest, you won’t have access to any of your documents or settings. Applications will behave as if you were running them for the first time. Don’t be alarmed by this behavior; it’s normal. If you need any passwords or other personal data in order to complete the test, memorize, print, or write them down before you begin.
Test while logged in as Guest. Same problem?
After testing, log out of the guest account and, in your own account, disable it if you wish. Any files you created in the guest account will be deleted automatically when you log out of it.
*Note: If you’ve activated “Find My Mac” or FileVault, then you can’t enable the Guest account. The “Guest User” login created by “Find My Mac” is not the same. Create a new account in which to test, and delete it, including its home folder, after testing.
Step 2
The purpose of this step is to determine whether the problem is caused by third-party system modifications that load automatically at startup or login, by a peripheral device, by a font conflict, or by corruption of the file system or of certain system caches.
Please take this step regardless of the results of Step 1.
Disconnect all wired peripherals except those needed for the test, and remove all aftermarket expansion cards, if applicable. Start up in safe mode and log in to the account with the problem. You must hold down the shift key twice: once when you turn on the computer, and again when you log in.
Note: If FileVault is enabled in OS X 10.9 or earlier, or if a firmware password is set, or if the startup volume is a software RAID, you can’t do this. Ask for further instructions.
Safe mode is much slower to start up and run than normal, with limited graphics performance, and some things won’t work at all, including sound output and Wi-Fi on certain models. The next normal startup may also be somewhat slow.
The login screen appears even if you usually log in automatically. You must know your login password in order to log in. If you’ve forgotten the password, you will need to reset it before you begin.
Test while in safe mode. Same problem?
After testing, restart as usual (not in safe mode) and verify that you still have the problem. Post the results of Steps 1 and 2.

Why does it take so long for my macbook to come to life when I open the cover, since upgrading to yosemite

Ever since upgrading to Yosemite it seems to take forever for my screen to come up when I open my MackBook Pro 13" (Mid 2010 model) I don't mean bouts I mean when I lift the screen.

Computer randomly shuts down/Very unstable since upgrade to yosemite

Since upgrading to yosemite my computer has become very unstable.
For anyone that can help with what may be causing this issue I would really
appreciate it. As for "Adobe" being a possible cause, how can I determine
which Adobe program and related files are the culprit?

A number of problems exist including the likelihood of system corruption as a result of using CleanMyMac.
It is not reasonable to expect a Mac to operate normally after using CleanMyMac. Like many ill-conceived "cleaning" utilities, it is capable of corrupting a Mac to the point that erasing it completely is the only practicable means of recovery. CleanMyMac is not the only example; it is merely popular due to marketing strategies that are as effective as they are intrusive.
There is no practicable way to reverse the effects of having used CleanMyMac2 other than to reinstall all affected files from backups or their original sources. Its developer's uninstallation instructions are ineffective despite their recent claims to the contrary. Only MacPaw, its developer, can know the reason for that, but I can think of two possibilities: either they are purposefully leaving components behind for reasons known only to them, or they simply don't know what they're doing. Neither one of those possibilities is particularly comforting for the user.
Reinstalling OS X alone will have no effect on either removing CleanMyMac or reversing the damage it is capable of inflicting upon a system.
Besides CleanMyMac2, garbage "cleaning" and "anti-virus" software exists, specifically "Avast", "Smith Micro", and "Symantec / Norton". Those products should not be installed on any Mac, because they convey no benefit and are only capable of creating or contributing to problems.
In addition, that Mac's Hosts file appears to have been modified. Fixing a modified Hosts file requires specific instructions. Apple Support Communities contributor and EtreCheck author etresoft recently added a User Tip discussing that concern, and how to correct it: Fixing a hacked /etc/hosts file
The recovery procedure that follows will obviate the need to correct all those separate problems and is likely to require the least amount of your time and interaction.
Follow the applicable recovery procedure below:
If you have a backup that you created prior to using CleanMyMac, now is the time to use it. For Time Machine, boot OS X Recovery, and at the Mac OS X Utilities screen, choose Restore from Time Machine Backup. Choose a date preceding the installation of CleanMyMac.
If you do not have a backup that predates the use of CleanMyMac, create one now. To do that read Mac Basics: Time Machine backs up your Mac.
The recovery procedure will require that you erase the Mac using OS X Recovery, and then create a new user whose contents will be empty. You will then be able to use Setup Assistant to migrate your essential documents including photos, music, work products and other essential files.
When doing so, select only your previous User account and do not select "Applications", "Computer and Network Settings" or "Other files and folders". De-select those choices.
Subsequent to using Setup Assistant, you will need to reinstall the essential software you may require, once again remembering to install software only from their original sources, and omitting all non-essential software.
To erase and install Yosemite read: OS X Yosemite: Erase and reinstall OS X
To migrate your essential documents read: OS X Yosemite: Transfer your info from a computer or storage device and follow the procedure under Transfer info from a Time Machine backup or other storage device.

Cannot open iPhoto after upgrading to Yosemite

Since upgrading to Yosemite, I am unable to open iPhoto. When I click on it a message appears saying 'this version of iPhoto is incompatible with Yosemite', and directs me to the App store to upgrade. I then get message saying that 'the product you are looking for is not available in the UK app store'. I live in Singapore but prefer to use the UK App store. Is it as simple as needing to change to a different country, if so which one? Or is there maybe a simpler way round this? Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Try Terence's instructions here Is Iphoto gone ? i want it back!

Hello I'm a new mac user and need some info.
I noticed that my mac is a bit slower since upgrading to Yosemite.
I get to see many times when opening an app the spinning colourful ball.
I did an etrecheck since i read on an over discussion that this might help resolving my problem.
Thank you

When you see a beachball cursor or the slowness is especially bad, note the exact time: hour, minute, second.
These instructions must be carried out as an administrator. If you have only one user account, you are the administrator.
Launch the Console application in any of the following ways:
☞ Enter the first few letters of its name into a Spotlight search. Select it in the results (it should be at the top.)
☞ In the Finder, select Go ▹ Utilities from the menu bar, or press the key combination shift-command-U. The application is in the folder that opens.
☞ Open LaunchPad and start typing the name.
The title of the Console window should be All Messages. If it isn't, select
          SYSTEM LOG QUERIES ▹ All Messages
from the log list on the left. If you don't see that list, select
          View ▹ Show Log List
from the menu bar at the top of the screen.
Each message in the log begins with the date and time when it was entered. Scroll back to the time you noted above.
Select the messages entered from then until the end of the episode, or until they start to repeat, whichever comes first.
Copy the messages to the Clipboard by pressing the key combination command-C. Paste into a reply to this message by pressing command-V.

Since upgrading to Yosemite no printers listed under Print

Since upgrading to Yosemite, i cannot use my HP Officejet Pro 8500. No printers are in fact listed under the Printer&Scan function. I cannot download drivers ! I reinstalled the printer, using old cd and checked HP site for help... Any suggestion ? Thank you

If the HP is connected to the Mac via USB cable, then open an application called System Information, which is located under the Utilities folder under Applications. With System Information open, you will see an entry called USB in the left column. Select this and the top right pane will show all the USB busses in your Mac. The HP should be listed under one of these busses. If not, then try another USB cable or another USB port on the Mac.
If the HP is connected via WiFi, then it will most likely use the Bonjour protocol to advertise itself on the local network. Safari has the ability to show Bonjour devices on the network, which you can enable via the Safari Preferences > Advanced > Bonjour. With the Bonjour bookmark selected the HP should be listed as a local printer. If you don't see the HP then check its network settings to ensure it is connected to your wireless router.
