When I tried to open a fresh iTunes download my computer gave the error message : 'program cannot run in DOS mode'. Since both items are Apple, why might this be happening?

Click here and follow the instructions. You may need to completely remove and reinstall iTunes and all related components, or run the process multiple times; this won't normally affect its library, but that should be backed up anyway.

I'm using a Mac. When I tried to open my iPhoto library in Elements I get the error message "cannot complete request PE doesn't recognize this type of file"?

I use a Mac. When I try to open my iPhoto Library in Elements I get the error message "cannot complete request, PE does not recognize this type of file." The import option only allows me import a "frame from Video"?

You can't use iPhoto that way. Poking around in the iphoto library from outside iphoto is just begging for trouble, the fastest way to corrupt your library and lose all your images.
You have two choices with iphoto:
1. Set PSE as your external editor and send the photos from iphoto. Save, never save as, and don't change the name or format and iphoto will remember your last saved edits and the original, although you have to lose the edited version to revert to the original. This doesn't work with raw files.
2. Export the photos from iphoto, use File>Open in PSE and then you can make all the changes to name and format that you want. Then import the saved edited version to iphoto as a new file.

HT1459 cannot download itunes to my computer have received error message that cannot download and open itunes because the support piece did not download....please help

Question: I cannot successfully download itunes to my computer I have tried several times and every time after the download it says that I was unable to get the support piece and therefore cannot open itunes......please help.

With the Error 2, let's try a standalone Apple Application Support install. It still might not install, but fingers crossed any error messages will give us a better idea of the underlying cause of the issue.
Download and save a copy of the iTunesSetup.exe (or iTunes64setup.exe) installer file to your hard drive:
http://www.apple.com/itunes/download/
Download and install the free trial version of WinRAR:
http://www.rarlab.com/download.htm
Right-click the iTunesSetup.exe (or iTunes64Setup.exe), and select "Extract to iTunesSetup" (or "Extract to iTunes64Setup"). WinRAR will expand the contents of the file into a folder called "iTunesSetup" (or "iTunes64Setup").
Go into the folder and doubleclick the AppleApplicationSupport.msi to do a standalone AAS install.
Does it install properly for you?
If instead you get an error message during the install, let us know what it says. (Precise text, please.)

When I try to open a .jpeg in Bridge CC2014, I get the error message cannot find Photoshop CS6.

I have associated my .jpegs with Photoshop CC2014. I had to do this manually. Now, every other program opens them in Photoshop, except Adobe Bridge CC 2014.
If I try to Open a .jpeg (or any other file associated with Photoshop) Photoshop from bridge, it says It cannot find the photoshop cs6.exe file. Of course not! I uninstalled it before I installed CC. Maybe two years ago. And now Bridge CC2014 goes looking for that as the CS6 default Photoshop.exe?

I finally got it to work by going into Bridge->Edit>Preferences>Default settings. After choosing a file that is supposed to open in Photoshop, I chose to change it and browsed to Program Files>Adobe>Adobe Photoshop CC2014 and manually linking each filetype to the photoshop.exe.
I have spent the better part of a week getting Adobe software to work again after the Adobe CC2014 install. I will never trust Adobe CC updates again. They failed to warn me that CC2014 installs as a completely different copy rather than an update of CC. As a result, I ended up uninstalling CC apps after installing 2014. A mess that has cost me more than *30 hours* of chasing around forums, manually re-associating files. Even a registry hack! Found by a user, not by adobe.
Ordinary users shouldn't have to do this sort of thing after a normal install from the Creative Cloud panel. The genius software engineers at Adobe are being totally undercut by the keystone cops in the cc updates and install department.

I downloaded a game off the internet that is intended for Macs, but when I tried to open it textedit open saying "This program cannot run in DOS mode"

How do I fix this? I thought Macs didn't have DOS mode.

They don't. What is the game and do you have a link to where you got it?

Please!
Thanks!

If anyone is reading this still looking for what caused the issue and how to fix it here is what I discovered.
The antivirus program our company uses, Bitdefender Antivirus Plus, was causing some of the PDF files not to open. After troubleshooting the different modules and settings the culprit was..
Scan SSL in Privacy Control Settings. Turning it OFF solved the problem and all the PDF files that previously would not open now open just fine. This issue has been sent to Bitdefender for them to review. If you use a different antivirus program and are having this issue try locating the Scan SSL setting and see if turning it off solves the problem.

Thanks so much but none of that helped. It was driving me crazy because it would back up another external drive. I just changed the name of the drive from iPhoto/iTunes Library to Media Libraries and IT WORKED!! I guess for some reason it didn't like the drive being called iPhoto or iTunes ???? I don't understand but I have tried so many solutions and exchanging things out but the name change did it????!!!
Thank you for your help and replying to this. Guess I made my own issue!

After my macbook was serviced, when I tried to open CS6, it prompted me to key in the serial number. After keying in, I got error message saying the serial number is invalid. However I have checked that it is correct.

First be sure login and password are OK. Sometimes the address starts wit "http://..." and sometime starts with "ftp://...". Try both normal FTP access and Scure FTP access (SFTP). At the end, contact the site's provider.

Could you post your diagnostics for us please?
