Why won't my facetime on my mac let me sign in?

My facetime on macbook air won't let me sign in. I keep trying, and I even tried to create a new user id. I have no idea why it won't work. It keeps telling me to check my network connection and try again later. Everything else on my computer is working. I updated everything, and even deleted the app and tried to redownload it.

This is normal to see while your iPhone requests permission from your carrier to use your Phone number for FaceTime (this also occurs with iMessage in Settings > Messages) iOS: Troubleshooting FaceTime and iMessage activation
It should take no more than 24 hours, but if you run into any errors, or it is taking that long or more, the article posted above will give you steps to resolve that communication issue, so you can successfully activate. In the meantime, you can sign in with your Apple ID in Settings > FaceTime and use that to call and and be reached at.

Why won't my FaceTime connect? It keeps saying connection failed when trying to sign in.

Why won't my FaceTime work? I just got this iPad new was able to FaceTime once. The next time I tried to FaceTime it said phone number incomplete. So I signed out of FaceTime and now it won't sign back in. It keeps saying connection failed check connection. I am showing I'm connected to the wireless router. What could be the issue?

Ok, so sometimes apple's servers may crash, temporarily. Just check the following site: http://www.apple.com/uk/support/systemstatus/
and it will notify you of any crashes. The link above is for the UK. Change to adapt to your country if you are outside of the UK. If your problem isn't listed I am sure it will be resolved within 24 hours. If this problem persists best thing is to contact apple.
Hope this helped :)

Why won't my trial of CC Photoshop let me save my PSD images as JPG or GIF?

Why won't my trial of CC Photoshop let me save my PSD images as JPG or GIF?

One thing to check is that your PSD is RGB/8 or /16, but not /32 (32 bits per channel)
If that is not the problem
Let's try this:
Close Adobe Photoshop if it is opened.
Find the following: (windows user can hit windows key + r, then in run cmd line type "%appdata%" to locate your "AppData\Roaming" directory)
\AppData\Roaming\Adobe\Adobe Photoshop CC\Adobe Preferences CC Settings
Rename the "Adobe Preferences CC Settings" folder to "Adobe Preferences CC Settings_old" so that preferences settings can be recreated.
Reopen Photoshop CC and open a new or existing file to verify that your "save for web" option is back and not grayed out.

Why won't premiere pro cc will not let me add an adjustment layer

why won't premiere pro cc will not let me add an adjustment layer

Glad that you got the adjustment layer issue worked out. Not quite enough info to troubleshoot the other problems. The following page outlines the kind of info that helps zero in on the cause of such problems: FAQ: What information should I provide when asking a question on this forum?
As to the cache files and rendered previews, you do not need to keep them. Premiere will regenerate them as needed. Because re-conforming the audio and re-rendering the sequence takes time, you probably want to keep those files around for the current project--unless, of course, you have reason to think that the cache or render files are causing problems.
To keep things clean and get the attention of more people, it would probably be best to start a new thread for the other issues.

Why won't snow leopard install on Mac OSX intel core duo10.5.8

Why won't Snow Leopard install on my Mac O S X 10.5.8 Intel core duo

You need a minimum 1 GB of RAM. It has to be of high quality*: http://www.macmaps.com/badram.html
You should also look over this FAQ to make sure you didn't miss anything*:
http://www.macmaps.com/upgradefaq.html
Note, in event you were interested in Lion, that Mac is not compatible with Lion unless you misidentified it. Only MacBooks with machine ID 2,1 or later can upgrade to Lion (1,1 and 1,2 are earlier). The Machine ID is in Apple menu -> About This Mac -> More Info.

Why won't my iphone 4 and mac with mountain lion sync my messages?

I am trying to continue a conversation from my iphone to my mac. It doesn't work like icloud pushing my e-mails and songs from one to the other. That works just about perfectly. But for imessages I can't get it to work. I even turned my caller ID to my email address. It really doesn't work well at all. Am I doing something wrong? And more importantly, IS ANYONE ELSE HAVING TROUBLE?
Thank you!

IF all of you guys were running the Messgaes Beta under Lion, before you moved up to Mountain Lion, that may be the culprit.
At any rate, do the following:
Under Messages application, DELETE the account that is not syncing.
Should just be your Apple ID'd account.
Do this by going into Messages/Preferences/Accounts,
Selecting the account in the sidebar and pressing the minus sign at the bottom of the sidebar.
Quit Messages
Then under the Finder menu at the top of your desktop, navigate to:
Library/Preferences folder. To do so, while selecting the Go menu item, press the Alt key, and the Library will list.
Select it
Inside the Preferences folder, locate all the files that have
com.apple.imagent
com.apple.imessage
com.apple.imservice
And drag them to the trash.
Now Open the Messages application and add your Apple ID account using the plus sign, under Messages/Preferences/Accounts.
If you also deleted the files above that had FaceTime in them, you will need to open that app an re enter your Apple ID account info there too.
All Messages "syncing" should now work.

Why won't Flash install on my MAC?

How come adobe customer service won't help me? It's really
annoying that they can't help over the phone and I just have to
cross my fingers and hope someone knows what's going on in the
forum. Please, help.
I had flash installed fine and then one day it suddenly would
not work. It said I did not have the plug in blah blah so I
reinstalled it and still, all it does is bring me to the adobe
website and say it can't locate my plug-in. I've tried on Safari
and Firefox. I know it is being installed for all of my browsers.
I've also tried updating my browsers as well as uninstalling and
reinstalling flash and nothing works.

Hello,
Please try downloading the Flash from following link:
http://get.adobe.com/flashplayer/otherversions/
Please choose "Mac OSX.." in step 1 and "Flash Player 15.." in Step 2.
You should be able to download the Flash Player then.
Regards,
Anoop

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 Pages load on my Mac

I have a MacBook Pro, and its been working, but when I try to download pages from the app store, it won't work. The little load icon appears and the "buy app" button turns light grey, but after this, is does nothing. I've left it on for a full 24 hours, and it still sat there. Any help?

Well
Before you take your machine down to the apple store
Try a SMC Restart

Why won't xcode load on my mac book air?

I just downloaded xcode on my MacBook Air and for some reason it will not load completely after launching the app. Anyone have any input?

Hi..
Xcode minimum requirements are Mac OS X v10.7.3 or later.
If your Mac meets the requirements, installing the OS X Lion Update 10.7.4 (Client Combo) may help. Restart your Mac after the combo is installed then try Xcode.

Why won't FF4 work on my Mac 0s X 10.4.11 version?

I can download the new FF4 but when I try to open it, I get the message that my Mac OS X 10.4.11 will not support the program.

Firefox 4 requires at least OS X 10.5 and an Intel Mac.

For Mac OS X 10.4.11 or Mac OS X 10.5.8 you can look at:

HT2186 Why won't my Macbook update? Mac OS X Version 10.5.8

Im trying to update my software but it keeps saying no update found & when I try to download/update the new iTunes it tells me my software basically wont support it. And says "This software requires Mac OS X Version 10.6.8 or later" Whats really going on?

If iTunes is important enough, $19 is not too bad. Even Windows 8 upgrade prices start at $80, at the cheapest place. Full Windows 8 licenses will be around $200 most likely.
Besides, there are security updates for both Java and general system available for SL, while Leoprd has been al but abandoned.

Linking to a PDF (why won't it work on a Mac?)

Hi
I'm sure this shouldn't be a problem but it is.. I've
recently made a simple standalone SWF in a projector format.
It contains a button which links to a PDF .. on (release) {
getURL("cd/manual.pdf");
On PC this works fine (although it does open in a web browser
rather than Acrobat). On Mac this link does nothing except open
Firefox which refuses to open the PDF.
The PDF themselves are fine and if clicked on at the source
just fire up Acrobat (in Mac and PC).
Anyone know if it's possible to force a file to open in a
certain App? It doesn't sound very likely!
THANKS!!
