Why won't iMac open the cd it just created?

My intel iMac (07 build) won't play/ open the cd I just burned on it. !
Older cds I created DO open, just fine. Why won't this new one open? It is a cd-r.
Does this mean that the burn did not happen? I have burned a cd-r, cd rw, and dvd - none of them will open.
iI need to send a cd of my artwork to a gallery to be juried. If I can't open the cd on my iMac, will the galley be able to open it? In other words - did I burn a cd and my iMac is just acting up? Or did I NOT burn a cd, and my iMac is acting up?
The message I get when I try to open the new cd is...." there is a problem. The Media is not supported"
and the iDVD icon shows up on the desktop.
This is day two of my trying to figure this problem out - can anyone help me?
Thanks,
artdough

Use a drive cleaner to clean your superdrive. See if that works. If it does, use it every 3 months or so if you do a lot of burning.

I have updated to Keynote 6.1, but I still have 5.3 and I cannot open the file I just created in 6.1.

I have updated to Keynote 6.1, my App Store says I did it 2/1/14, I just created a new slideshow in 6.1 tonight, saved it all the way through while creating it, and when finished, saved it one more time, and closed the file. I treid to open it again, but I get an error message stating I need a newer version of Keynote to open the presentation. I check the "About Keynote", and apparently I still have 5.3 and I cannot open the file I just created in 6.1. I try changing the file to open with 5.3, but it won't do that either! The App Store won't let me re-download it. How do I get 6.1 back??? I need to reopen the file I just created.

I am finding that when I launch keynote from the Docking Station and it opens Keynote 5.3, so I command Q and close it. I then go to Finder, go to the Keynote slideshow I created in 6.1 and now cannot open, and CAN open the slideshow from Finder, which it actually open the file in Keynote 6.1.
I emptied my Trash.
What the heck is up with this???? And how do I fix it??

Why won't safari open the jjill website? what do i do?

why wont safari open the j.jill website? what can i do to fix this?

opening this web page does the same thing.
to clarify: we get an email from jjill and click to open it and are directed to safari which will not open it. we cannot go to the j.jill site from the email, nor can we go directly to the j.jill site from safari. we cannot get to j.jill at all. we can get to other websites....we are having a problem getting to this one only. We can get to this site on other deivces, i.e. ipads, other laptops, etc. The problem is currently happening on our MacBook only.
The message we get from safari is:
"too many redirects. this may occur if you open a page that is redirected to open another page which then is redirected to open the original page."
what can we do about this to fix it?
Thanks.

Why won't CS4 open the CR2 RAW files from my Canon G11?

I am running Snow Leopard V6.2. I have Adobe Design Premium with what I thought were all of the most recent updates loaded but when I tried to open one of the RAW files from my Canon G11 in PS CS4 it did not recognize the file type and it and would not open. Wouldn't CS4 premium update also update PS CS4 with all the most recent files including ACR and the latest definitions?
What version of ACR would have the latest RAW definitions for the G11 and how should it be loaded?

Bennett Richards wrote:
What is the correct way of installing the ACR plugin? Just ru
n the DMG or is there a file that must be placed in
applications?
This is what is written on that page:
To open a DMG file:
Double-click the file. This will open Disk Copy, which mounts the image on your desktop.
Manual installation on Mac:
1. Exit Photoshop CS4 and Adobe Bridge.
2. Open the download file and double-click Setup, and follow the on-screen instructions.
3. Launch Photoshop CS4 or Adobe Bridge.
Is that so difficult?

When I download a Word file from a classroom management database, why won't Firefox open the file without me having to save it?

I have been using Firefox for many years with Blackboard products. In the last six months or so, when I try to download a student's file that is a Word .docx, it won't let me open it without saving it. Word .doc files work fine. I don't have this problem with Internet Explorer, but of course IE is clunky, slow, and doesn't fill in forms. Any help would be appreciated. Let me know if I can supply more details.

Two possible problems. 
1. BlackBoard never supports the latest version of Firefox, for a few reasons. Some schools don't run the latest version of BlackBoard Vista or Campus Edition. Also, BlackBoard upgrades seem to be tied to the "school year" cycle, the changes they make to improve and update their software seem to be rolled out for the fall term so that changes aren't being made during the normal "school year" and possibly causing problems for the schools. That also may be a function of their contract / payment cycles with the schools that use their programs.
http://www2.blackboard.com/tuneup/viewpage?name=tuneup_browser_tuneup_windows_firefox 
Select the link for the version of WebCT Vista or Campus Edition ''(version info is usually at the bottom of each page, in the footer)'' that your school is using, then see which version of Firefox is compatible.
Depending upon which version of WebCT your school is using, you will have to use Firefox 3.6.x, Firefox 3.5.x, or Firefox 3.0.x when accessing the Blackboard site.
My advice is to install the Firefox Portable version that you need for Blackboard on your computer, and use that installation only for Blackboard. Continue to use 4.0.1 for all other web browsing.

2. Firefox uses a Plugin ( you have Office Plugin for Netscape Navigator installed) to open files that aren't "internet files", like word processing documents. 
I can't help you directly with Office, as I use Open Office, but there should be a preference for that Plugin within your Office preferences or options under something like Internet, to have those files '''Display documents in browser'''. 
Or see this to make sure you have your "file type" set correctly.

Why won't files open in the space that the application is assigned to?

I have applications assigned to specific spaces, however, if I am in space 2 and I click to open an Adobe Illustrator (assiged to space 3) file, spaces will send me to space 3 but the file window will open in space 2 (where I was). I have to use F8 to view the spaces and drag it over to the assigend sapce. If i try to work on it in spaces 2 (where it opened) my pallets are blank. Any ideas?

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 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?

Why won't Adobe open a Pdf? Why do I pay for a service that will not open a pdf?

Maybe you could supply us with more details about what exactly you are doing, how you are doing and what you are using to do it.
The reason I say this is because you are in the forum for Adobe Reader which is a FREE application and not a service.
