  • Why won't Flash run on older macs?

    I have a mac running OS X 10.5.8, your download site says I need 10.6 or above - I don't upgrade OS's until it is necessary - please provide your product for 10.5.8 - it is not that old an OS to drop support!
    Note - your tags does not work on the chrome browser.

    Thank you Pat Willener. 
    Let me clarify.  I have a good reason to not upgrade my Mac.  I currently have several Macs that are shared by 3 people in my family.  I have 2 Macs from 2012 and one from 2008(I believe 10.5.8 is an upgrade to what came out in 2008) that I am currently using.
    The Mac from 2008 has OS X 10.5.8.  The reason I won't upgrade this is my Microsoft Office on there is a Power PC based version.  The Macs in 2008 came with something that allowed them to run Power PC based software even though they were an Intel platform at that time.
    If I upgrade the OS,  I have to purchase a new version of Microsoft Office since the latest Mac OS does not support the old Power PC software.
    Anyone that has used computers for more than a few years understands that anytime you upgrade an OS, you get the (mandatory) opportunity of upgrading potentially all the software you have on that computer and sometimes that costs money.
    I have a more recent version of Office, but not one I have purchased for use on the 2008 Mac.  Constantly upgrading operating systems results in the potential for expenses related to upgrading other software to stay compatible.
    As a result, although I accept all the free updates on an operating system,  I do not generally pay to upgrade the software on a machine.  That upgrade has to wait until I consider the machine to obsolete to repair and then I buy a new machine and generally will upgrade the software that I need to.
    I learned this with Microsoft and its software - avoid paid for upgrades to software unless you need some new features.
    I already have older versions of flash on all my computers,  I have a website that refuses to operate with older versions of Flash.
    My option on these websites is they will only work on my newest Mac.
    Note - I believe that although I am not running my 2008 Mac on Lion or Mountain Lion (10.8 variations on OS X), it is running an update that was current as of early 2012 and was still supported by Apple in 2012.
    What I am asking is that Adobe continue to support older operating systems for a period of time past their most recent updates.  The other option is to give people that develop for Adobe Flash, information so their flash content is compatible with multiple versions of flash.  The last option is to send people like me outside in the ice and snow and let us suffer without flash.

  • Why won't the date and time stay in the menu bar?

    I just installed 10.6.2 and even when I use System Preferences to check the box in the Date/Time panel they flicker and disappear from the menu bar. Why won't the Date and Time stay in the Menu Bar? Any suggestions? Thanks.

    Doesn't any bring up the fact that Apple has so many customers with problems that the refuse to help unless you pay them cash? They update you and screw you over and then offer no useful troubleshooting scenarioius to help their millions of customers. It is because they want millions of our dollars. I hate Apple.

  • HT1657 Why won't the bought and downloaded films play?

    Why won't the bought and downloaded films play?

    It won't let me download iOS 7.  When I check for software updates it says that it is up to date.  I also went to iTunes to delete the songs from the iPod, but now it isn't even recognizing any devices.  I even uninstalled iTunes and reinstalled it to my computer.  LOL  I am sure it is something small, but I don't have the patience for it now.  Maybe I should step away from the computer and come back in a little bit...    Thank you for the advice though!  Keep it coming!  I know it is hard to diagnose over the internet, but any ideas help!

  • Using iTunes why can you not backup and save your voicemail?  Guide me through this step by step if possible.  If alternate method MUST be used then provide same.  Truly appreciate this.

    Using iTunes why can you not backup and save your voicemail?  Guide me through this step by step if possible.  If alternate method MUST be used then provide same.  Truly appreciate this.

    Create and delete iPhone, iPad, and iPod touch backups in iTunes - Apple Support  - link doesn't state that voicemail is part of the backup
    iCloud: iCloud storage and backup overview  states that VVM is part of the icloud backup.
    You can also contact your cell phone provider - as voicemail is a carrier feature.

  • Why won't files open or save in email

    I have been trying to open some important files that were emailed and they won't open.  I am getting the blue and white pop up asking if I want to open or save and it won't let me do either.  It did this the other day and somehow I finally got it open after shutting down the computer.  Tried that this time and it won't work.  Tried uninstalling and reinstalling adobe.  It did not work.  There is also an online website I use to complete and upload PDF file documents and it won't work either.  What has happened?  How do I fix?

    Ah this is just because I haven't fully updated my bridge yet, but the solution still works fine

    The video shows replacing a current DLL file with one from last year - the key issue being that the files found in the Bridge and Photoshop folders are DIFFERENT. Why would this be?  I checked a PS CS5.1 installation myself and the files are already the same. Is there an illegitimate copy of Photoshop being used or something, causing these files to differ? -Noel

  • Why won't Flash Player install past 25%.

    I have OS X10.10.2 Yosemite and am running Safarii Version 8.0.4 (10600.4.10.7). I have uninstalled the previous version of "Flash Player" and have tried to install a new version from url - https://www.adobe.com/support/flashplayer/downloads.html. The installation only gets as far as 25% before stalling. I have let it run for an hour or more and it still won't budge. Can anyone help?

    This morning we resolved a problem that prevented Flash Player installations from completing for some of our Macintosh users.
    If you encountered this problem, please delete any previously downloaded Flash Player installer and either:
    1.)      Download the installer again from https://get.adobe.com/flashplayer
    2.)      Download the stand-alone installer from  http://fpdownload.macromedia.com/pub/flashplayer/latest/help/install_flash_player_osx.dmg

  • Why won't my L4P and LKS files launch on customer's computer?

    Events make me almost sure I caused this, but would appreciate help if there's a way to prevent doing this all over again...
    Customer had a process file that was running fine, but with an increasing number of staff with access to Lookout he wanted user accounts created and security levels assigned to numerous Lookout objects (accounts and objects were all at default settings). He emailed me the LKS and L4P files, I edited them, and emailed them back. 
    The L4P and LKS launch fine on my computer, but won't on the customer's. On the customer's computer, launching the LKS file produces a compile error, but doesn't identify the error. I've also emailed the files to a colleague, who replied he had no problem either. Should mention colleague (like me) is running North American Win XP. 
    Files were generated in Ver 6.02(1) on WinXP machines, and bench tested fine on a Ver 6.1 Runtime also under XP.
    The customer is located in Poland, has a Ver 6.1 Runtime, and is running it on a Win NT machine. 
    So assuming for a moment I caused this anomaly during my editing, why do the files not work at customer's location and why won't the compiler identify what it is?
    More to the point, how do I fix this? 
    JW_Tech 

    Yo, JPhillips:
    Thanks for the tip. Took a look at the err file (see for yourself)... 
    Lookout Process File Compiler Version 6.1 (build 27)
    Copyright National Instruments 1992-2007  All rights reserved.
    cannot open source file: C:\Program Files\National Instruments\Lookout 6.1\cedrob.lks 
    This is the same folder where the unedited files WILL work. 
     Ryan, I've uploaded the cedrob2.zipfile to the ftp site. Would appreciate you having a look at it.
    There is certainly a mystery here. If I'm working at a site where the OS is all English, I weigh how much editing I might have to perform and consider moving my Integrator license from my laptop to the customer's computer (to take advantage of the bigger screen, mouse, keyboard and the on-line editing of Lookout) for the duration of the session. In this case, I was at the site (in Poland) in August and since Polish is not my strong suit, I did all my editing on my laptop and transfered the files to customer's computer via memory stick. Everything worked fine during all that, so emailing the files should not be any different, yes? 

  • Why won't Parallels run the program?

    OK so I'm an teacher and recently I've recieved new software to try out with my classes and obviously it won't run on my laptop (os Mountain LIon). So I started to investigate the options.
    1 Make partitions and run two os's at separate times. NOT working anymore not sure why.
    2 Use bootcamp to run the two os's. Haven't tried yet.
    3 Use a virtual machine. After investigating I chose to use Parallels 7. It downloaded and seemed very user friendly and even gave me the option of a trial windows 8. I installed it and the program wouldn't work it needs to be a windows 7 so I found one and it wouldn't work either then tried to install Snow Leopard. I tried with the disc that came with my laptop didn't work said that only server versions are supported so I found a server version downloaded it and installed it but it won't even give me the option of seeing the disc within Parallels and my file sharing isn't working with it.
    So that's where I'm at, I've been working at this for a week now, reading around and trying new things but still not sure why none of them run the program.
    A MichaelLax has posted a detailed way to install snow leopard but I'm not sure why all the terminal parts are necesary if that's what I need to do I'll do it but I don't understand why.
    http://forums.macrumors.com/showthread.php?t=1365439
    I'm not looking to use the Parallels or any program much only to acces the information that they've given me to see if I can use it.

    OK so here we go I installed windows again and everything seems to be working as normal so I put the disc in and I took screen shots but it won't load them for some reason but anyways here it is. These are the files and what happens when I click on them
    Audio file     audio files always able to access
    Video file     same as audio
    xSprocket     several worksheets and things like that
    xtras          more program files
    autorun      when I click on it saws notepad is too small I need a bigger editor
    readme      system requirements
    TN_active teach file     when opened on the mac side it says its a powerpc product it won't open and on the windows side it switches to mac and opens stuffit expander (the compression thing I told you about) and then creates a file with nothing in it
    TN_active teach application when I open it on windows it says its not a valid win32 application and on mac side it switches to windows and says the same thing
    the link you posted BobTheFisherman was very helpful except for the fact that I need to install it first but I tried anyways and the indicated files had not been made yet.
    In the end though I've come to the conclusion that it is not a Parallels or mac problem but simply one of the software I'm going to look for other windows programs to test how they work though just to prove my hypothesis I thank both of you for your efforts on helping me.

  • Why won't my combined file save as a pdf to my dropbox?

    I just signed up, combined two pdf's and it will not save as a pdf when i save to my dropbox, it won't even open.

    Hi Dawn,
    If you combine the files and save them to your local drive first, then copy to your Dropbox, does that work?

  • Why won't my nike and iPod app work anymore

    Why won't my Nike+iPod app work on my iPod touch anymore? I just get a red screen then it closes. Anyone have an idea why this happens. It work fine not to long ago but I went to use it today and it's not working.

    - Try a reset. Nothing will be lost.
    Reset iPod touch:  Press and hold the On/Off Sleep/Wake button and the Home
    button at the same time for at least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears.
    - Next try restoring from backup
    - Last, restore to factory defaults/new iPod.

  • Why won't apple acknowledge and fix the IOS 5 update encryption bug?

    When updating to IOS5 and saving a backup, if you intentionally do not encrypt the backup, the software will do it for you against your will without letting you know.  The source for the assigned against your will and knowledge password for that backup isn't clear and many people never figure out what it is.  Clearly a lot of people on line and multiple people I know have come across this bug in updating their IOS to version 5 and many have lost everything on their IPADs and IPhones.  Losing one's backup of irreplaceable pictures and files etc.... is just a major loss and I spent hours on the phone with a service agent who verified it is a frequent problem but that there is no acknowledgement of it. 
    Why is this still happening and why isn't the bug fixed considering that it is so devastating for users who can't figure out the assigned password.  It happened to me months ago, it happened to my brother 2 weeks ago and to the wife of an office mate of mine yesterday.  Trying every password ever known to you doesn't always work.
    I'm seriously for the first time in my entire 20 years of exclusively owning Apple computer products thinking about switching to an Android instead.  Apple has failed me here and without effort to curb the problem with a fix, (this has been posted previously on this support community website by others for months now) it seems endemic of front door salesmanship without concern for the customer coming back for help with the product.  I give Apple it's first F.
    How can I restore from an encrypted backup I didn't encrypt?

    Here are an example of just a few threads pulled in 20seconds with multiple users in ech thread chiming in about their similar problem.
