Why is Acrobat 8 not launching after Migration Assistant Tranfer?

"Adobe Acrobat 8 Pro cannot be launched at this time.  You must launch at least one other suite component [WHICH I HAVE] (such as Adobe Photoshop) before launching Acrobat 8 Professional."  

Migration assistant doesn't work with everything. I'd be amazed if it managed to get all the licensing stuff. I'd recommend you reinstall.

  • Why does Firefox not launch after safe boot?

    Folks:
    I've been using ML for several months, no particular issues, yesterday as part of the monthly maintenance I did a safe boot, and after that firefox will not launch.  Other 3rd party apps will launch, and of course Safari will . . . but, any thoughts as to why FF would go "limp"?  When I click on it in the dock the icon bounces but then returns to the dock . . . I tried to launch it from the application folder and from the "previous application" launcher . . . .  I tried it in a "guest" account that is never used . . . no difference.  I did try to do something in the Terminal, but since I'm thinking that very soon I'm switching up to Mav, I haven't bothered to figure out how to add my regular user account to the sudoers list.  But, I did try to launch FF in my admin account by the regular methods yesterday, no luck.  Any ideas why this is happening . . . to me?  Solutions are better, but, conspiracy theories also accepted . . . . =8 - 0
    e.e.p.

    Ran "Repair Permissions" several times . . . seems to be fixed.

  • Trackpad gestures not working after migration assistant

    I just got a new 13" macbook pro for my wife.  I initially created an admin account for myself and everything seemed fine.  Then I ran the migration assistant to import my wife's account from her old macbook (~3 years old, running snow leopard).  Now some trackpad gestures, like the 2 finger scroll, don't work in her account.  Some do, like pinching and unpinching to zoom.
    I've tried turning all the gestures off in preferences, then turning them back on again, but to no avail - 2 finger scroll doesn't want to work.
    It seems like it must be some old trackpad settings that are overriding the new - her old macbook had the button and did not do gestures.  But I don't know how to get rid of any imported trackpad settings so it will go back to default behavior.

    Same thing happen to me. Had to go into iTunes folder and use old iTL file to get iTunes to open again. But after I did that my iPhone now isn't being recognized by iTunes and it wants me to wipe it. I also can't update to iTunes 11...I'm stuck on 10. It says I should update when I manually check for update but the store says there is nothing for me to download. This is so frustrating.

  • Windows on Parallel, on new MacbookPro not working after migration assistant

    After I did migration assistant from my old macbook pro to my new macbook pro and formatted the old laptop, when I opened the Parallel I had on my laptop it told me that Windows in no longer a genuine software although I've been working with it on my previous macbook pro and it is a genuine windows..What can I do?
    I tried to retype my licence to reactivate windows but it wouldn't work!!
    PLease help..

    Did you, by any chance, make a backup of your old MBP on which there is still a copy of the Windows virtual machine? If so, try copying that over to the new MBP to replace the VM giving you trouble.
    Windows periodically checks the hardware configuration it's running on and if too many factors have changed, it puts up the complaint you're seeing. That may have been aggravated by how Migration Assistant transferred the VM file. I use VMware Fusion rather than Parallels and when a VM is moved to a new Mac, Fusion senses that and asks if the VM was moved or copied; if you answer copied, Fusion assigns a new MAC address to avoid network conflicts if both instances of the VM are running at the same time. But the new MAC address also triggers Windows to complain, as yours has. Does Parallels ask that question too, or does it, perhaps, just assume it's been copied? A more complete discussion of what you're running up against can be found here.

  • Mail not responding after migration assistant to new mbp

    I just got a new macbook pro, and migrated everything except applications via time machine from my old macbook (both with up-to-date snow leopard).
    When i try to open Mail, it pops up saying it will import all my old mail - this completes and i press 'done' - however the main mail window pops up with an empty inbox and automatically i get the rainbow wheel which goes on indefinitely; more than an hour. I've tried several times and this is what happens, can't access anything.
    How do i resolve this? is it best to delete all my mail first, open mail and then import from time machine? if so, how do i delete mail manually?

    Not sure why this did not work. If you want to do over, then in the Finder remove the Mail folder at Home/Library/Mail, and the com.apple.mail.plist file at Home/Library/Preferences. Then copy those files from the time machine.

  • Why does iPhoto not launch after update to version 9.3.2?

    Double clicking the application icon causes it to bounce 3 or 4 times in the dock and then quits. Trying to open with command + option will not launch for a rebuild. Holding down the option key illicits the same behavior.
    How can I downgrade to 9.3.1 or make 9.3.2 work? It was working perfectly before the upgrade.
    My other computer (a recent MacBook Pro) shows 9.3.1 version and software update shows it's up to date. It works great.

    Still will not launch in new user account.

  • After Migration Assistant, Time Machine refuses to use old backups

    I've got to say I'm pretty disappointed with Time Machine.
    I just dropped $2,000 on my second-ever Mac, a 15" MBP (Core i7 2GHz, 4GB RAM, 500GB 5200rpm hard drive, the stock low-end 15" config).  From what I'd heard about Migration Assistant, I believed it would easily move my stuff over to my new Mac.  For the most part it did, but a few things didn't transfer.  Other posts on the topic detail them accurately - Desktop icon layouts, some settings, Growl, etc.
    I told Migration Assistant to use my Time Machine backups, which have been happening without incident for a long time.  My oldest backup is December 2010.
    Now that my new MBP is about 99% set up like my old MBP, I am having a problem with Time Machine.
    I get the error "Time Machine could not complete the backup.  This backup is too large for the backup disk.  The backup requires 355.61 GB but only 176.44 GB are available."
    Looking at the Time Machine drive in Finder, I found that Time Machine is trying to create a new folder for backups and do a full backup.  Where there was once one folder, "[My Name]'s MacBook Pro," there is now an additional folder, "[My Name]'s MacBook Pro 2."  Time Machine is trying to back up into that second directory.
    Now, I get it that this is a different computer.  But really, if I use Migration Assistant to restore my Time Machine backup, I think it would be safe for OSX to assume that I want to continue using those backups.  What is especially disappointing for me is, there were things that Migration Assistant did not restore properly.  I probably haven't found them all.  That makes it CRUCIAL that I have my Time Machine backups, but it seems that Apple thinks it's perfectly normal for me to want to FORMAT my Time Machine drive after Migration Assistant did a half-*** job of migrating my data.  I need those backups now more than ever.
    I do also have an online backup, but I still don't feel very comfortable destroying six months of local backups just to make Time Machine work again.  Both MBPs were running the same (latest) version of Snow Leopard, so it stands to reason all that needs to happen is a very small incremental backup.
    I have been Googling for hours.  All I've found is a procedure for 10.5 that doesn't work in 10.6 where I get down into the Terminal and change a MAC address in a file on the Time Machine volume.  But that's it.  In fact it seems like there's no answer.
    Come on Apple, you do everything else better than the competition.  Why do I have to nuke six months of backups or buy a new 2TB external drive to make Time Machine work again?  I assure you I want to continue making incremental backups against my old Time Machine backups, and promise to hold you not responsible should I screw something up by grabbing an old system file or something from February.
    Would appreciate any help anyone could offer.

    Did you use Setup Assistant when your new Mac first started up, or skip that, create a user account, then use the Migration Assistant app in your Applications/Utilties folder?
    If you used Setup Assistant, when you started your first backup you should have gotten the message in #B5 of Time Machine - Troubleshooting.  It sounds like you didn't (or chose Start New Backup).  And no, the Leopard procedure doesn't work on Snow Leopard.  That's what #B5 is for.
    Usually, if you use Setup Assistant, Time Machine will still say it's going to do a full backup, and make room for it, but actually do an incremental backup (very, very slowly).
    Either way, it usually deletes a lot of old backups.    We're hoping that will be fixed in Lion.
    Once it's decide to make a new backup, there's no known way to prevent it.

  • User password not accepted after migration

    Source: iMac Lion OSX.7.4  Destination iMac OSX6.8
    Problem: user password is not accepted after migration
    What I did: Tried to migrate over the LAN, but in the migration assistant the other Mac was mutually never recognized. (Did migrations several times successfully in our LAN before). Last time the LIon Mac was the destination, who is now the source.
    I backupped then the  user with Time machine on the Lion and installed it with the migration assistant on the Snow Leopard system. As as the password was not accepted, I repeated the backup/migration process once. No help
    I reset in System Prefs/User accounts the password of that user. But cannot login either
    First time, that a migration process fails for me.
    Any help is appreciated
    Thanks
    Urs

    The target computer itself has admin accounts thats not the problem, I can access it. The issue is that the migrated additional user account is not accessible with its password.
    I have found here an istruction how to reset a password in single user mode.
    http://www.macyourself.com/2009/08/03/how-to-reset-your-mac-os-x-password-withou t-an-installer-disc/
    But that does not help either.The answer after the dscl -passwd command is that I do not have access (or similar, I don't remember)
    My guess is that backward migration (Lion to Snow) causes the problem. May be I need to create the user freshly and to copy his documents manually

  • My time capsule mounts to Mac but is not displayed on Migration Assistant

    My time capsule mounts to my Mac but is not displayed on Migration Assistant.
    Very strange...there doesn't seem to be any issues with my Time Machine backup on time capsule, and I can easily access all files via Finder mounting the sparsebundle. However, when I try to fully restore the backup to my iMac, Migration Assistant cannot find any of the backups.
    Any idea why?
    Thanks!

    Try preforming a factory reset and start over. This is explained at http://support.apple.com/kb/ht3728

  • How do i merge my user accounts after migration assistant

    Hello,
    How do I merge my user accounts after migration assistant from a time machine back up?

    I wonder how to plan what account and rights to have where?
    I had my old original account on my iMac, and then I "migrated" the data to a user account, in order to have some advantages with that setup. So everything worked approximately ok in this setup.
    And yesterday, I tried migrating to a new Mac, and suddenly I get aware of the fact that the rights on these two earlier accounts were important.
    And especially, after doing the migration to the new machine twice, until I got the Mail working, I am now totaly bewildered what solution to aim for? How to merge the two migrated admin accounts - keeping the original admin account is also important, since my file system har special rights for that one.
    Could anyone give me more ideas about how to proceed? I think I have working Mail on one of the two migrated account (with 100 000 mails or so, it seems so...). The other account is the one I would like to have.
    Also I think I want to use a normal user account, not an admin account for my daily use. And I have to see if things still work if I turn off the admin rights...
    Thankful for any advice!

  • TS1717 My Itunes will not launch after downloading and I have tried all the troubleshooting for itunes for Windows 7 64-bit. Do I need to system reboot my computer than try to download it again?

    My Itunes will not launch after downloading and I have tried all the troubleshooting for itunes for Windows 7 64-bit. Do I need to system reboot my computer than try to download it again?

    I'm having a very similar issue, paired with iTunes not being able to get online.
    iTunes shows up in processes and then hangs at 17,000 K or so -- sometimes it will start up, but that (if it occurs) is a delay of literal hours.
    Pretty meticulously went through all the 'cannot connect' trouble shooting, and have uninstalled, restarted, and then reinstalled every piece of apple software; issue is just as firm. Starting in safe mode or admin mode don't fix it; signing in as a different user doesn't fix it.
