Why does Adobe Elements 4.0 suddenly crash about the time Apple has a security update?

Why does Adobe Elements 4.0 suddenly start crashing about the time Apple has a security update?

An ADOBE FORUM "Community Professional" commented:
"Well, I'm not sure any of this is going to work, but go to your username>library>preferences and delete:
com.adobe.Photoshop.Elements.plist
The PSE 4 Paths and Settings folders (can't remember whether they're called Adobe Photoshop Elements 4.0 Paths or something different, but you want folders with Paths and Elements 4 in their names--you should be able to figure out which they are)
Opera preferences (if you have it)
Repair permissions and try again.
If it still quits, go to the PSE 4 folder in applications and delete the Adobe TWAIN driver from the plug-ins folder (note that you may have trouble with Epson scanners in PSE after doing this).
However, PSE 4 is pretty darned old and it's less compatible with every new OS X update, so what I've suggested may work and may not. FWIW, you probably will not be able to reinstall the program if you ever need to do so--installed versions of PSE 4 keep working in 10.6, but the installer does not."
Hope this helps

Why does safari on ipad with ios7 crash all the time compared to ios6? + more ?s

After ios7 was installed on an ipad2, safari crashes often when viewing simple pages like reddit.com or facebook and google. We got an ipad air with ios7 preinstalled and the problem persists. Ios6 almost never crashed safari.
Another issue I am having with ios7 is that the input timing for the spacebar seems to be off compared to ios6. Just speculation, but it started after ios7 was installed with no issues prior on ios6. I used to be able to type incredibly fast with minimal errors on spacing between words. Now it seems to "actl iket his" some of the time. (Spacing issue for the phrase "Act like this") regarding space bar registry for how quickly I type.
Another issue, which may actually be a feature of ios7 (if something I read was correct) is that when multiple tabs are open and I switch between them, it needlessly reloads the page on pages which are not updated with new info. It is an annoyance, and if it is a feature, it is an incredibly stupid one at that.
Thanks for any help with these issues

For Safari.
Tap Settings > Safari then tap to clear cookies, data, and history.
Then reset the device.
Press and hold the Sleep/Wake button and the Home button together for at least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears.
See if that helped both Safari and the space bar issue.
If not, tap Settings > General > Reset > Reset All Settings
No data is lost due to a reset.

Anyone know the reason why app store in iOS 6 is crashing all the time?

Anyone know the reason why app store in iOS 6 is crashing all the time?
Tried everything. Reset my iPod touch to fresh version of iOS 6 and still issues. I believe that there is a bug.
APPLE: please FIX ALL THE BUGS IN IOS 6!!!!!! Please do it fast!!!

I am having the same problem, but I think I might know what's causing it. I just updated my girlfriend's iPhone 4S (same phone as mine) to iOS 6 and was surprised to find that her app store is working just fine. When I opened hers, however, I did notice that the "Categories" and "Top 25" buttons are totally different; and those happen to be the two buttons that are not working for me. Mine shows the same that yours does, while hers has the "Genius" and "Charts" buttons in the place of the two that are not functioning for me. I believe these old buttons are no longer active and therefor are bombing out when attempting to access them.
Now I said I think I may understand the problem, but unfortunately I have no idea what the solution may be. Hopefully this tread doesn't fade away and our problem gets addressed.

My iphone 5 keeps crashing all the time and has a delay of about 3 seconds when doing anything on it i did a factory restore on it but it didnt fix the problem

my iphone 5 keeps crashing all the time and has a delay of about 3 seconds when doing anything on it i did a factory restore on it but it didnt fix the problem i went to optus to see if they could help me as my phone is through them but they knew nothing i need help please my phone is only 8 months old

Plug the device into a wall outlet and leave it for about 20 minutes. If it has not powered on at that point try a reset by pressing and holding the home and power buttons for about 15 seconds until the white Apple logo appears.

Why does Adobe Elements 12 destroy my Olympus makernotes section of the metadata

I downloaded the trial version of Adobe Elements 12 and pointed it to a test folder with some of my Olympus OM-D E-M1 photos. I viewed the file properties from within Elements which showed all of the camera info, exposure, aperture, lens used, camera make and model etc..... I then added a couple faces with the facial recognition, added some captions saved it to the Metadata and then went back in to look at the file properties from within Elements. All of the makernotes were screwed up. I no longer see the lens, exposure or any of the camera data. What's up with this? I verified it by running EXIFTool and it shows that the makernotes now has corrupt info that EXIFtool can not read - this ends up being stuff that Elements added in.
Doesn't anyone care about camera maker notes? Doesn't anyone use this information? I like being able to go back and look at a picture I really like and see exactly what lens I was using, focal length it was set to, and all of the other camera settings at the time of the exposure. It helps me learn and improve my skills. Doesn't anyone else do this?
Is there any software out there that does NOT destroy this information?

Why is my MackBook Pro suddenly crashing all the time?

Hello,
After upgrading to OS X 10.9.2 yesterday, my MacBook Pro (15-inch, early 2011 model) has crashed many (>10) times.
Specs:
Processor 2,2 GHz Intel Core i7
Memory 8 GB 1333 MHz DDR3
Graphics Intel HD Graphics 3000 512 MB
Software OS X 10.9.2 (13C64)
There is also an AMD Radeon HD 6750M graphics card.
Disk: Samung 512GB SATA 6Gb SSD 830 Series
When it happens it can be in a way such that everything freezes, even the mouse cursor, or it can be by switching to a grey or blue screen.
It has happened several times in connection with inserting the cable for my external monitor at work or my TV at home.
I tried running Disk Utility, both Repair Disk (which repaired 2 problems on my disk) and Repair Disk Permissions, which found a number of problems.
That seemed to help for a long while. But then a new crash occured.
Running Repair Disk Permissions again finds some of the same problems again, which are related to Printers and/or GPU!
Example report from Repair Disk Permissions:
"Repairing permissions for “Macintosh HD”
Group differs on “Library/Printers/InstalledPrinters.plist”; should be 80; group is 0.
Permissions differ on “Library/Printers/InstalledPrinters.plist”; should be -rw-rw-rw- ; they are -rw-r--r-- .
Repaired “Library/Printers/InstalledPrinters.plist”
Group differs on “private/var/db/GPURestartReporter”; should be 0; group is 80.
Permissions differ on “private/var/db/GPURestartReporter”; should be drwxr-xr-x ; they are drwxrwx--- .
Repaired “private/var/db/GPURestartReporter”
Permissions repair complete"
About 4 weeks ago it crashed completely, and showed some graphics failures, and I was not able to boot up.
It was sent to repair, and they ended up installing a whole new logic board!
Before that I had no problems with crashing or freezing.
Thanks,
Ulrik

That is completely normal for Macs and has been for many years. Apple considers those to be messages and not errors.

Do you have the crashes if you plug in the external monitor before booting your Macbook Pro or only if you attach them when the computer is already running? In either case it sounds like an electro-mechanical problem most likely a bad port connection in the machine, perhaps the result of swithching out the logic board. I hate to say this, but I think it is time to send your Macbook Pro back for further repairs.

Safari crashes all the time and flash cannot be updated. virus or what?

hi guys! my safari keeps closing suddenly all the time. it's not "quit unexpectedly" with report kind of crash. it prompts no report whatsoever. when I relaunch it, it always opens in the same condition it left, with all the same tabs. and also it says flashplayer was not updated. but when I try to update from the adobe website it just wont work, wont start download whatsoever. I have tried uninstalling the older flashplayer but still it wont start download from the adobe website. now "missing plug-ins" is all over, on so many websites. I cant even open videos in youtube.
could this be a virus or what? does anyone know what the problem is? Thanks in advance guys, I appreciate it!

The next time you have the problem, note the exact time: hour, minute, second.

☞ 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. Click Utilities, then Console in the icon grid.
Make sure the title of the Console window is All Messages. If it isn't, select All Messages from the SYSTEM LOG QUERIES menu on the left.
Scroll back in the log to the time you noted above. Select any messages timestamped from then until the end of the episode. Copy them (command-C) to the Clipboard. Paste (command-V) into a reply to this message.

Why does Adobe think we want addons Chrome and McAfee added to a simple FLASH update???????????

Presenting an update with addons like Chrome and McAfee to be installed nefariously directly run from the site is not good. Downloading the file after unchecking the box that I don't want mcafee messing up my computer one can install the update without that garbage. I don't want Chrome either.. Sure I have used it in the past but I don't want it now. It is just about impossible to use the web these days without flash activated unless you are an people and don't get it anyway.   Trying to piggyback that unwanted software on top of a Flash update is not cool! Its bad enough 3rd party downloads come with things like that but whats next some adware?    Please rethink your update policies as getting that stuff installed is doing no one that doesn't want it any favors at all.

Adobe does not think that anyone wants these 3rd-party add-ons. However, they have to fund a development team for the free software they provide; that's why/how they try to recover some of that funding.
I can understand they need money for their product yet they are the ones that bought macromedia and supported it on the web for years. I can remember when pdf files were new so new it stopped BART from allowing it through the network I was on. Do they not make enough money off of Photoshop? I realize if a network wants to support flash on macs they need to buy a another server option to make it work. I just find it deplorable the way it is done. In fact the check box is somewhat skillfully camouflaged on the update page.
Updates should not come with trickery in the update choice to tick the correct switch off (check box) to not have 3rd party unwanted choices.   The difference between the save vs run update from their site makes a difference in which way it comes to you as the default run from the adobe site is it comes with mcafee and chrome browser not the OS. This is not useful for the average jo computer user that has no clue.
What is next Babylon toolbar?    Have you ever seen the video of John McAfee explaining how to uninstall mcafee av? Perhaps you would understand the frustration of the users that encounter this.

This is a user forum; it is not "our" policy!
It may be your forum but its at adobe.com and supposedly the place found to ask questions. Its the only place I could find without writing a letter to adobe.
At least a dozen times every day someone posts the links to the offline installers, which are not bundled with any 3rd-party software. Why not use these instead of complaining...?
You might put up some links too the offline installers, however why should I trust some offline installer that may have adware, malware, or some other chumpware silkroped to it?
On top of that its adobe's updater that is notifying the user of update needed.      It appears the updates can come two different ways from adobe and may depend on if it is updating for ie or mozilla too.

Why does Adobe Manager download and install 2 of the same programs?

Am I suppose to get more than one icon for each app? I have a (64bit) and it appears a 32bit both install when I download with Adobe Manager.
I have a fresh install of windows 8. -- probably the issue -- an upgrade from win7. I completely uninstalled all apps, did a fresh install of my upgrade, and kept no files, or settings. It however, did keep somethings with the new window.
Looking in my program list, I have the same program listed in (program files), and in ((86program files)), there is the 64bit program.
It seriously looks like I am downloading and insalling two seperate versions.... why?
I do have another desktop computer, which is older, and running window xp, and it is a 32bit system.
The main cpu I am using is a Dell.... (maybe that's the problem) laptop, Inspiron 1545
help.

For which application are you seeing two versions?
Photoshop installs both 32 and 64 bit versions on a 64-bit system when installing from the Adobe Application Manager using the Creative Cloud subscription.

Why does adobe camera raw keep saving images with the incorrect white balance?

I am having an issue when I edit images. here is the scenerio:
I choose 50 Raw files and open them in Camera Raw.
I edit each individually - many of them have different white balances.
Once I have each image how I want them, I select all and click done.
Sometimes all the edits are saved correctly, but very often all the changes are saved correctly except white balance. The program seems to take the white balance from one image and applies it to all the images.
Why??? Very frustrating to have to go back and individually edit all the white balances again.
Thanks!

It seems to not happen if I slow down a few seconds before I click select all and then done.
That should not be the problem, once you changed settings and hitting done they all should be applied immediately. It even is not needed to first select all, that is only needed when you need to open or save the files.
But I still don't know why it would only change the white balance in every shot and not everything.
If it happens again could you first in Bridge select one of the none changed files and with right mouse click menu choose select purge cache for selection?
And can you provide more details about system version, app versions and file types?

Why does Adobe Premiere Pro offer more effects for the windows platform than Mac?

Every time I find a cool new effect that I would like to use it seems it is only offered on the windows platform. I am a mac user and wondering why this is.

A lot of that is inertia, though. 3 or 4 years ago, I would have laughed in your face if you'd told me that we were going to move to a PC-based workflow. Then everybody stopped using FCP, Apple refused to update their Pro towers for, like, 3 years, and released a completely redesigned MacPro that has caused us more headaches than it's worth. PPro makes it super easy to bounce projects back and forth between our Macs and PCs. Mainstream computer hardware has become powerful enough that you don't need a professional workstation to edit video and do basic motion graphics. This is totally anecdotal, I realize, but our PCs are every bit as stable (or unstable!) as our Macs, and we've yet to have a single virus on either Mac or PC (mostly because I don't let warez anywhere near our boxes...). At this point, I literally can't think of a single reason to stick with Mac as a platform; if I can put together a $2000 PC that'll perform more-or-less as well as the $3000 MacPro, why would I choose the more expensive option? I guess you could say "ProRes", but I've never really been a fan of ProRes. Besides, DNxHR will be out in a month or two; that'll be the final nail in the ol' ProRes coffin.
I honestly don't mean this to come off as an insult, but I think that in 2014, anyone who tries to tell you that Macs are somehow superior to PCs just doesn't know what they're talking about. Aside from the price, the playing field is pretty level... I hope I don't come off as being an anti-Apple, pro-PC fanboi; I'm just a big fan of rational, informed decisions.

Why does my Find My iPhone get turned off every time I install an iOS update?

When I installed the 7.0.2 and just last week the 7.0.3 update on my 4S it turned the Find My iPhone service off in iCloud. Has anyone else seen this? Is it turning off any other services that I need to know about?

as far as i understand iCal it is on the "receivers/subscribers" side to deal with email-updates (and not on the "senders/changers" side):
snippet from my Re: How do you stop receiving notifications about updated calendar events? (there is a screenshot as well):
to NOT get email notification about updated events from a shared calendar you subscribed to you have to uncheck "events affect availability" in that calendars "info" (mac os X.7 and X.8: iCal —> calendars dropdown —> right click on the subscribed calendar —> choose "get info" from the context-menu —> uncheck "events affect availability")

Why does adobe photoshop elements 6.0 not show up for a download choice of putting my photos into my computer, I'm on windows7. I'm sure it did when I first got my computer. Could it be that I have lots of other photo software that may be interfering?

If you open the Organizer and go to Edit>Preferences>Camera or Card Reader, do you have Auto Launch Adobe Photo Downloader on Device Connect checked?
