  • After the latest Security Update 2012-001 (Mac OS X 10.6.8) my Adobe Photoshop CS 8, Dreamweaver 8, and InDesign CS programs crash when I try to save a file.

    After the latest Security Update 2012-001 (Mac OS X 10.6.8) my Adobe Photoshop CS 8, Dreamweaver 8, and InDesign CS programs crash when I try to save a file. HELP!!!

    Howdy,
    Apparently some are reporting that this causes the older PowerPC (PPC) applications that are supported in 10.6 via 'Rosetta' to crash upon attempting to open/save/print using any dialog box, or fail in other similar ways such as simply not printing or quitting, or freezing/hanging/crashing of the application.
    I have read of some companies that have indeed submitted proper bug reports to Apple, but that is not a guarantee of a bug-fix being issued.
    You might wish to read:
    http://www.macintouch.com/readerreports/snowleopard/index.html#d02feb2012
    If you are unsure if you are still using PowerPC apps, if the application is currently running, look under the 'Activity Monitior' (in Applications -> Utilities), or alternatively you could check in the System Profiler, Applications. Check the column "Type".
    Here is a fairly simple way you can restore you system and restore you applications functionality again, if you don't have a recent clone or good Time Machine backup that you can restore from. If you do, restore from your backup prior to having installed the Security Update 2012-001.
    Time Machine restore: http://support.apple.com/kb/ht1427
    If you are restoring a backup made by a Mac to the same Mac
    With your backup drive connected, start up your Mac from the Lion recovery partition (Command-R at startup) or Mac OS X v10.6 installation disc. Then use the "Restore From Time Machine Backup" utility. Select the backup prior to your issues, and it will be restored back to the state it was in at that time.
    If you can't easily restore from a backup, you can instead do the following:
    - You first start by reinstalling your OS X 10.6.x, this will preserve all your user data, your applications, no worries there.
    - Then install the Mac OS X 10.6.8 Update Combo v1.1 (links provided below)
    - Make sure you're printers are showing up correctly in your system preferences, if not, re-add the printers
    - Then finally, run the Apple Software Update (by pulling down the Apple Menu), and install any and all remaining updates, except do not then re-install the Security Update 2012-001. It is possible that you may have to reboot after installing some of the updates, and you may even need to run it a 2nd time to make sure that you've got all updates, except NOT the Security Update 2012-001.
    Links for 10.6.8 Update Combo v1.1:
    http://support.apple.com/kb/DL1399
    or the link to directly download this 1.09GB combo updater:

    I was trying to upload from my iPad to my pc.
    That was hard for us to guess, from your post It might have helped to mention the iPad.
    How are you trying to save the song to your PC? Are you sending the song to iTunes? If yes, as a project or as an audio file? Make sure, you select "AAC" and not "GarageBand", when you share the song from your iPad.
    If the clip is not too large, you might alternately try to share it by mail, see:

  • An unknown error appears when I try to save older files in CC 2014. If I outline the fonts, I can save.

    An unknown error appears when I try to save older files in CC 2014. I can save the file if I outline the fonts. Is anyone else having this problem?

    It also happens with my illustrator.
    Have you found a solution with Adobe Support?
    You can transform the all fonts in curves, but itll be impossible edite again. Sad. too sad.

  • Why is Firefox replacing 'space' with '%20' when I try to save a file?

    Alright so when I try to save a file from at least two websites, Firefox is converting the spaces in the file name to '%20'. So for example, instead of 'Firefox rules.doc' it's 'Firefox%20rules.doc'.
    This is NOT a html error, Internet Explorer doesn't have these problems on the exact same websites, and it's only a recent occurance for Firefox.
    EDIT: Have tried re-installing Firefox; diabling add-ons; diabling plugins; updating plug-ins; creating a new profile.

    Are you left-clicking the link when that happens or do you use "Save Link as" the right-click context menu?
    Does it also happen if you hold down the Alt key and left-click?

  • When I try and save a file Photoshop crashes "McAfee blocked suspicious activity-Buffer overflow"

    I never had this problem before. When i try and save a file Photoshop just fails instantly crashes and I get this error message from McAfee software:

    Well, you could just make your firewall behave and create an exception rule as the warning suggests... It's unlikely that this is PS itself, anyway. Eitehr it's a flakey driver or a cracked plug-in you may be using (not implying anything here, so keep cool) may produce a wrong hash value/ signature and trigger the alarm.

  • When I try to save a file to an existing folder in Acrobat X Pro, none of my folder names are visible.

    When I try to save a file to an existing folder, the folder icons are there, but no folder names. I have to manually click on each one to find the folder I'm looking for. I've had this issue for months. Any suggestions?

    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

  • I have Adobe Photoshop Album 1.0 & suddenly cannot send photos thru e-mail.  It looks like it's working ok; but when I hit Send nothing happens and the program stops responding.  Any suggestions?

    I have starter 3.0 and cannot share pictures via outlook express. Evidently that version is discontinued and my outlook express does not support the MAPI that is required. I think the only solution is to upgrade to photoshop
    elements or to send photos as attachment to your e-mail.  I have the same problem using Zoom Browser EX sending photos via internet. I spent a whole day trying to resove this issue and have exhausted all options. Just like "Instant share" in HP image Zone that was replace by photoshop album starter 3.0 and now it is out dated.

  • Kernel-Power Event ID 41: The system has rebooted without cleanly shutting down first. This error could be caused if the system stopped responding, crashed, or lost power unexpectedly.

    Hello,  Currently we are seeing this issue with a couple of our Lenovo T420s laptops with a Solid State Drive.  ruffly about 10 or so.  The Reboots happen randomly and do not create a dump file.  We have contacted Lenovo and they are
    not sure why its happening.  Since this Crash I set it for Minidump this did not work my next steps will be to Disable Automatic restart on System Failure to see if it brings anything up.  I am also looking at using Procmon to dump to a file as well. 
    If anyone has any other ideas please let me know.

    Thank you.

    We have tested and checked both the Bios and firmware of the SSD Drive's
    Bios was up to date and no issue
    Firmware was also up to date as well.  
    Users are still experiencing random Reboots.   I tried to capture the issue with Procmon but since the PC shutdown (Goes to a black screen no power at all even when turning the "Automatically
    restart" off under Startup and Recovery) No dmp files as of yet.  Unable to configure Procdump due to not knowing where the issue is and what is causing it to happen.
    Going to replace one of the PC's with a New one with different hardware to see if this resolve the issue.  If anyone has any idea's to be able to capture what maybe happening that would
    be great.
    Thank you.

  • Adobe Illustrator (CS5) keeps crashing when I try to save my files

    So in the last few weeks, my adobe illustrator has started acting up and won't save my files unless they are in the folder that the program makes itself. Those are usually files with long names that are a series of numbers and letters. Even if I copy and paste the name into a search, my computer isn't able to locate the folder, which makes it impossible to do any work because it will only save to one place. Has anyone else had this issue and know how to fix it?

    Does this help any? I'm trying to save my files to my desktop (or anywhere locatable for that matter) But it only allows me to save to this file for some reason. Even if I copy and paste the name of the file, it does not appear when I try to find my file outside of AI. When I try to choose a different location, I get the error message below

  • "Get Error code -120 when I try to save a file?"

    I am editing some files and just tried to save one and I got a MacOS error code -120. I cannot find an explanation for this. What is it? It says "Directory not found" but the directory path shows at the top of the file.

  • When I try to save a file from the Web, even with web complete, it saves it as an MS Word file. How do I change this?

    I cannot execute the Save Page As for any files on Firefox. Each time I try it saves it as a .htm file -- even if I choose Web Complete, and it opens as an illegible MS Word document.
    The error message says Windows cannot find C:\Documents and Settings, etc with my file folder.
    I think that the problem began when a old version of the Netscape browser I had stopped working, so I removed it.
    Please advise how I can save Web files properly. Thank you very much.

    removed firefox and installed V.10. Back to normal! Interestingly did not have problemm on Blackberry so not sure where the problem was!!!!!!!!!

  • Have Photoshop 11, When I try to save 1st image the whole program locks up.  Can't even shut down program.

    I open a photo, do adjustments and try to save as usual.  Entire program locks up.  Cannot shut down on own.  Windows error box says an element of the program is not working.  Have to shut down using error box. 

      The editor prefs often get corrupted. You may need to rebuild the editor preferences to resolve any conflicts.
    Hold down the Cmd+Opt+Shift keys and simultaneously click on the Edit button on the welcome screen. Release the three keys and look behind the welcome screen by closing it. Or go to applications and hold down the three keys whilst double clicking on Photoshop Elements Editor application.
    You should see a pop up box with the words: Delete Adobe Photoshop Elements Settings File?
    Click on Yes
    Close down Elements and re-open it in the normal way - then wait whilst it rebuilds the preferences.
