When I try to open I Movie thes screen appears with the message "creating thumbnails" and then freezes. None of my events or projects appear in the libraries. I cannot close I Movie or my computer and have to force shut down my Macbook. This is a sudden occurence.

You can never, never transfer an installed copy of PSE. It's just too complex and it strews stuff all over your hard drive in places the migration assistant is not programmed to look. Now you will need to download and run this:
Use the CC Cleaner Tool to solve installation problems | CC, CS3-CS6
after which you can go around and manually remove all the bits from Applications, the library at the top level of your hard drive>application support>adobe, and your username>library>preferences. Spotlight will not help with this; it's programmed to skip these kinds of files.
Then you can reinstall from scratch. Let us know if you need help finding the library folders.

HT3820 I entered my registration key and have the "Pro" showing in the registration window, but when I try to open a movie in QuickTime, I get a message that I need to purchase QuickTime Pro. What am I missing?

Help! I'm trying to burn a DVD of a PowerPoint (I know! I shouldn't have used PowerPoint), but I am losing my audio. Surely there is a way to do this, isn't there?

You need to download and install Camera Raw 6.7.1 for CS5. Once you have downloaded it, you need to install it while CS5 is closed.

Once downloaded, unzip/unpack the file, and run the executable to start the update, following the instructions.

Thank you for clarify I'm supposed to read the ENTIRE article. I thought I was just supposed to read the title and magically everything will fix itself. I appreciate you taking the time to help me however I do not appreciate the caps and the way you have addressed the situation. If you are not going to kindly help people/make suggestions just don't try! And for the record my conclusions are not illogical, the iOS7 thing is on the website in small font (which I got by reading the ENTIRE thing) and you should really find a new hobby because your socialization skills need some help! That goes for you too Chris. Not everyone is a tech nerd

How do I undo an update to pages 2.1 on an iPad 2? I can no longer open a document previously saved, even when I try to open it in the iCloud and on my Mac.

How do I undo an update to pages 2.1 on an iPad 2? I can no longer open a document previously saved, even when I try to open it in the iCloud and on my Mac.

With IOS Pages v2.0 and v2.1, Apple introduced a new document format that is incompatible with prior Pages versions on IOS or OS X Pages ’09. Opening older documents with these recent versions of Pages will permanently prevent the document from opening in earlier versions of Pages on IOS or OS X.
Nice of Apple to warn people.
There is no undo of an iTunes application update, short of forcing iTunes to restore IOS v6 back on that iPad 2. Even if you did that, you won't find the IOS Pages v1.7.2 in the iTunes store now.
IOS Pages v2+ will allow you to export content in Word .docx format. You do this by first tapping the box with an up-arrow in it (next to the left-most +). A menu will slide up — choose Send a Copy. Select a document icon. Pick Mail, and then Word. Your Pages v2.1 document will now be converted to Word .docx, and attached to an email body. Fill in the to address and send.

Why are pictures and pages missing from doc created in Pages 09 when I try to open it in the new Pages?

I created a large document earlier this year in Pages 09 ... over 100 pages and it has screen prints, pictures and text boxes ... when I try to open it in the new Pages 5.5.1, all of these pics, text boxes, etc, are missing!!! I can open it in the old Pages, and they are all there, but in the new Pages, half of my document is missing! I want to have it work in the new Pages because what if I upgrade to a new computer ... I will not have access to Pages 09 anymore! Plus, the "Page Layout" option is missing in Pages 5.5.1 - what was Apple thinking with this update? Please help!

Bean doesn't do layout and is no longer being developed.
MsOffice or LibreOffice [free] are alternatives but not at the moment 100% solutions.
MsOffice has most of the features in a clumsier fashion in most cases but is a bit of a kludge on the Mac.
LibreOffice has a rather rough user interface and still lacks Pages '09 features.
Really we are in Limbo until we get something else completely.
For office work, I suggest LibreOffice or NisusWriter. Just so you can still get at it in the future.
I have been warning about this inevitability for years. Hasn't made me popular.

I keep getting this message when I try to open FCP X. "The storage location 'brianmassman1' on this computer is already in use by "brianmassman1" on "Brian-Massmans-Computer-7". To access the location, quit Final Cut Pro on "Brian-Massmans-Computer-7" or

I keep getting this message when I try to open FCP X. "The storage location 'brianmassman1' on this computer is already in use by 'brianmassman1' on 'Brian-Massmans-Computer-7". To access the location, quite Final Cut Pro on 'Brian-Massmans-Computer-7' or remove the location."
I have no idea what this means. Particularly the part about "Brian-Massmans-Computer-7." I don't even know what computer that is.
I'm guessing it could have something to do with the fact that I've still got FCP 5 installed. But it's not running.

Try repairing permission in the Disk Utility and rebooting,

I have Photoshop CS3 which I have used successfully for a number of years. I now shoot pics with a Nikon DSLR D7100. When I try to open NEF files the following flag appears: "Could not complete your request because PS does not recognize this file". What do I need to do to open my NEF files?? Thanks.

Thanks for the quick reply, CP
FYI, the file is a photographic panorama based on several .CR2 photos taken in July, 2012 and processed in CS5's camera RAW/Photoshop. Beyond the metadata, here are no fonts or text in the file.
1. I changed Maximize ...File Capability from "Never" to "Always" and the flattened file saved and loaded OK, though I can't figure why given Adobe's description of this option. "If you work with PSD and PSB files in older versions of Photoshop or applications that don’t support layers, you can add a flattened version of the image to the saved file...". The file saved in this manner is ~8% larger and is not my preference as a routine since I've TB's of photo files. By the way, out of thousands of .psd/.psb files, the one being discussed is the first to give me the error.
2. I've tried saving/reloading the file on another computer with Win XP Sp3/CS5...again with Maximize Capability OFF. Same problem. Turn ON Maximize Capability and it works. As with the Win 8 machine, Bridge could neither create a thumbnail or read Metadata.
3. I've purged the Bridge Cache, made sure there were no old PS page files, reset PS preferences, and disabled my 2 plugins with no change in the problem. Windows and Adobe progs are all updated. Saving to a different HDD has no effect.
The problem occurs on 2 computers (Win XP/Win 8), two versioins of Photoshop (CS5/CS6), and "Maximize" On/Off togles the problem. My guess it is a bug in PSD processing routines.
If I can't find a fix, will keep with Maximize ON and deal with the larger files that result...the cost of insurance, I suppose.
Thanks again

Hi there, my iMac has automatically been deleting files from my thumb drive when I try to open them. The lost files aren'tin the trash or anywhere else I can think of. Any ideas?

If one drive works and the other doesn't that points the finger at the errant drive. They are cheap, replace it. To check formatting right click it in Finder and choose Get Info and look for Format type. Finally do you eject it when removing it or do you just pull it out of the USB connection?

Are you not seeing the icon of the app you just downloaded (it happens sometimes, and the quick fix is to reset your iPad)? Or are you running out of space on your iPad?
