Trying for hours to get photoshop CC running on my mac

I've downloaded it and installed twice. Uninstalled, cleaned, followed all directions from tech support chat. Nothing helps.
The error message I get every time I try to launch it is:
"could not initialize photoshop because of a program error"
I have not been successful in launching it at all. Not even once.
here is the error log from the last go-round after installation..
2013:07:23 01:21:25 : /Volumes/workarea/PS_14_Mac_Daily_Retail/20130423.r.221/photoshop/main/photoshop/xcode/.. /sources/UColorState.cpp : 737 : REQUIRE failed

I really hope I can get Photoshop to work...
Thank you for any help!

I think I found a possible answer from another forum - this person has the same exact issues and had also tried everything I have tried with no success until he got to support level 3...
translated from German.
The following solution has helped me today, thank you Adobe Support Level 3 Please uninstall all Adobe products and then remove all files from Adobe. To all Adobe entries to remove from your Mac, please proceed as follows: Please start your Mac in Safe Boot and log on as an administrative user. Below you open your Finder and select the head "Go". choose at this point please see the "Go to folder" option. Wear to the following terms and delete the including the entries listed, if they still exist, as described below: Term: / Applications to delete entries: Adobe * Adobe PatchFiles Utilities / Adobe *Utilities / Adobe Installers term: / Library to delete entries: Application Support / Adobe * Application Support / FLEXnet Publisher / Preferences / Adobe * Preferences / com.adobe * Preferences / FLEXnet Publisher / Application Support / Adobe / Logs / Adobe / Installers Logs / Adobe phrase: ~ / Library to delete entries: Application with "*" marked entries are available for multiple entries of the same type with different suffixes. The "*" stands for any term. For example, thinks "Preferences / Adobe *" default entries different programs may be their full name: Preferences / Adobe Indesign CS4 Preferences / Adobe Photoshop CS4 , but _not_: Preferences / Macromedia.

Started firefox today and for some reason all the bars are missing which includes the bookmark button, back button, really everything...I have tried for hours to get them back and even did a restore to my system, no help...how do I get them back

all the bars at the top of the page have gone missing including the back button, everything...how can I restore them?

'''Menu Bar''' (File, Edit, View, History, Bookmarks, Tools, Help)
Press ALT V T M (CTRL V T M on Macs) on your keyboard. This should restore the menu bar (Firefox 3.6) You can also restore the menu bar by pressing Alt and going to View | Toolbars | Menu bar
'''Navigation Toolbar'''
Press Alt V T N (CTRL V T N on Macs) on your keyboard.
'''Other toolbars'''
View | Toolbars | Select the desired Toolbar
'''Other steps to try'''
Try restoring the default set by going to View | Toolbars | Customize | Restore Default Set. This will put the toolbars back in the default place. This would be a good idea if you are missing specific icons on the Navigation Toolbar
'''Safe Mode'''
You May need to reset toolbars and controls via [[Safe Mode]]
Make sure you completely close Firefox first. When you get to the Safe Mode window, select Reset toolbars and controls and then Make Changes and Restart.
Links:
[[Menu bar is missing]]
[[Navigation Toolbar Items]]
[[Back and forward or other toolbar items are missing]]
Hope this helps!

HT4259 I have been trying for hours to extend my Extreme Gen 5 network with an Express Gen 2. But no matter what I do or try, it doesn't work. What does happen is my internet gets block somehow when the Express looks like it's set up and 'green' - no in

I have been trying for hours to extend my Extreme Gen 5 network with an Express Gen 2. But no matter what I do or try, it doesn't work. What does happen is my internet gets blocked somehow when the Express is online and looks like it's set up perfect and 'green' - but no internet connection for anything even though the Extreme is green and the modem is good. Once I disconnect the Express, everything is good again.
I've tried LAN, WAN, though a switch, direct connect, Extreme set to Extend the network, the Express set to be an extension. Most of the time I get an error trying to update the Express. But when it seems to be set up perfect, the entire house can't get to the internet. Just when it looks right, it is so wrong.
If anyone can give me exact steps (e.g., "...from the Base Station menu, select the Restore Default Setting option" vice "...just restore the defaults..."), I would greatly appreciate it. I'm left to the conclusion that the Express is faulty. I've been using Airport Utility 6.2 from Mountain Lion on one computer and Airport Utility 5.6.1 from Snow Leopard on another computer (the latter give more control while the former just want you to 'forget' the Express).

I finally got it working. I was trying to set it up ethernet. My biggest mistake was when the new Express came on, I did not select 'Continue' - I went straight to manual thinking that I would get the most setup options in manual mode. So everything I initially tried always resulted in 'wireless'. Even when I would update or restore default settings, the Express would not completely restart. Or sometimes I would get an error. So most of the time I had to unplug it. So when it came back up, none of my changes were retained. But there were a lot of times when everything was green and appeared to be fine. But anytime the ethernet cable was plugged in, no more internet.
So here's the weird part. When I finally tried 'continue' (vice manual), I would get 4 options. One would be 'ethernet' extended. So I would select it, it gave me green lights, all looked good, and still the same problem. This is when I got frustrated. I thought I had exhausted all possible combinations.
But somehow when trying continue again after another restore, I only got 3 options. One was the same ethernet extended option (can't remember what the missing 4th one was). And this time it worked - it gave me the big green circle with the checkmark saying it was successful. I don't know what I did different, but I know now that it won't work if 4 options come up to choose from. It will work if only 3 options come up. And success if only verified by the big checkmark. Had anyone anywhere said the checkmark declaring success is validation, then maybe I wouldn't have gone down so many rabbit holes thinking it should have been successful.
As for which Airport Utility I prefer, 6.2 looks nice, but it would just ignore the Express and would want me to 'forget' it and would not let me edit it. Airport Utility 5.6.1 was the one that I ended up using the most and finally had success with. It still strikes me as odd that there is no manually way to pick ethernet, it can only be choosen following a 'restore defaults', and only from the 3-option list (the 4-option list had the same ethernet choice, but it no worky).
Thanks for the response. I really do appreciate it.
Aiport Extreme Gen5 - internet access and router
Airport Express Gen2 - connected via ethernet, extending my wireless
- configured while connect directly to the Extreme, but now on a switch (16-port hub)
Using Airport 5.6.1
1) Restore Defaults from Base Station menu
2) Following restart, Select Continue
3) Of the 3 option presented, select 'ethernet.... extend network...'
- if 4 options are present, may not work
4) Wait for the green circle with the big white checkmark.
5) Connected Express to the switch where a cable went to other end of house - works.
Dead-zone went from 2mbps to 24mbps.
I probably spent 4 hours chasing my tail in anger. The correct way took about 5 minutes total.
Thanks again.

My macbook seems to be going crazy. At certain points (and for hours) I get the oh snap page on chrome, safari doesnt work, macbook wont let me create any files or for example upload music to itunes. I restored my mac so im sure its not a malware problem. The only thing that solves it is switching off and on , but sometimes I have to do that for 6-7 times before its ok or wait for a few hours. Some help please

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 personal files or settings. Applications will behave as if you were running them for the first time. Don’t be alarmed by this; 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.
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, or if a firmware password is set, or if the startup volume is a Fusion Drive or 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.

Contact Adobe sales or Adobe Customer Service.
You would have to upgrade to CS6 for Mac as a "cross-grade" or platform swap.
They will not allow you to simply swap for CS5 Mac, because CS5 is no longer sold or supported.
You can either upgrade to CS6 Mac by way of platform swap for some $200, or you can join the Cash Cow subscription mode.

How do I change platform for downloading and installing Photoshop Elements from Windows to Mac?

How do I change platform for downloading and installing Photoshop Elements from Windows to Mac?

As long as your license supports both platforms you should only have to download the Mac version and install/activate using your serial number. If you need help finding a link to download the file, please indicate the PSE version you need.

HT5610 How can You authorise your Windows Vista computer??? I do not get this drop down menu nowI cannot get this here, have been trying for hours, why is this so uncooperative? My first impression of I tunes is not so good after that.

How can you authorise your windows vista computer to play stuff you downloaded from itunes??? I cannot get this drop down menu shown on your support pages whatever I do. I have been trying for ages. This is not a good first impression.

Authorize a Mac or PC
Review the following before you authorize a computer:
You can authorize up to five computers with your Apple ID.
You must authorize your computer to download past purchases, use Home Sharing, or use the Automatic Downloads setting.
You can play unprotected music that's in the AAC file format without authorizing your computer. This includes iTunes Plus tracks and content from sources other than the iTunes Store, like your audio CDs.
To authorize a computer, follow these steps:
Open iTunes.
Choose Store > Authorize This Computer from the menu bar.
You may need to show the menu bar to see this option in Windows. In earlier versions of iTunes, you can access this option from the Advanced menu.
Enter your Apple ID and click Authorize.
If your Apple ID uses an expired MobileMe account, you can still authorize your computer.
In some cases, iTunes may ask you to authorize the computer again. iTunes should use the same authorization as before if the computer is in your list of authorized computers.
Learn what to do if iTunes repeatedly asks you to authorize when you try to play your content.
http://support.apple.com/kb/ht1420
Note : If you are Unable to see the Store Tab on your iTunes then click anywhere on your iTunes and press
Ctrl + B key on your keyboard once and you should be able to see the Store tab in your iTunes.

Can't get Photoshop to run correctly.

Hi
I have a monthly CC subscription but can not update from Photoshop v14.0 which is now two updates behind. When I try to update I get a message telling me that Photoshop is up to date when it is obviously not.
I also appear to be missing some features such as the Filter Gallery.
Any help appreciated.

Please verify your Ps version from Help→System Info and provide us with the following files:
You can find them at:

For Mac:

For Win:

You can zip all the files together and send us through mail ([email protected]). This would help us in finding the root cause.

How can I get Photoshop to run?

I have a brand new MAC. I installed the latest Photoshop. It said I needed to install Java Runtime. I did.
When Java was finished, it said it couldn't be installed. Does anyone know what I'm doing wrong?

What couldn't be installed Photoshop or Java? Could you please provide the exact error message? Also what version of Mac OS are you using?
