Would Love to have an answer to this question (Photoshop CS6 on Mac OS 10.8.5)

First issue: Every time I initialized Type Tool (starting a couple of days ago) PS would crash. Thought maybe file was too large, odd because I've worked on very large files before but, reduced image size. Bring up Type Tool ... crash. By now Adobe has at least 20 crash reports from my computer alone in the last 48 hours. This is one issue.
After reading the forums, realize Photoshop CC is a big upgrage to CS6 and figure I may as well download and install that. Download, fine. Install at 51% crash. Install failed; Error Code '15'. Hmmm. Please restart your computer says the message and try again. Do this 6 times (hour gone now), same result. Read more forums, follow Adobe online expert advice. Same result (another 30 minutes burned). Follow the link to Chat Support ...........
Get on Chat Support and explain my issue (maybe there's something I'm missing here). Please install Adobe App Advisor.exe ... This is a Mac I say. OOOOPS, please install .dmg. Install, update Adobe AIR. Give me control of your computer while you watch and I'll fix the issue. Watch for a few minutes, this person doesn't know Mac OS I see. Once he or she (not sure, doesn't matter) finds what they're looking for, makes copies of .log files. These offer no suggestion to the problem. Solution, make new folder to install Adobe software (?!) and change Permissions on every Adobe folder on my computer. Hmmm, this doesn't help either. Okay, now I must log out and log in as Root user. Okay, fiddle around in my machine as Root for a bit. More folder fiddling, more permission changing, turn off Firewall. Nope, no good either. Silence for about 7 minutes, no response from Tech Support, I'm about to log out of chat.
Feeling very uncomfortable as all security disabled and am in Root ...... Sorry, tech glitch couldn't reply to you. Let me look at one more thing.
Now told, sorry nothing I can do. I'll set you up for a phone call tomorrow, bye. End Chat abruptly. (2 1/2 hours later)
Go back to start Photoshop, there is work I can do that doesn't need Type Tool will at least try to recoup some of the time lost until I get a call tomorrow from Tech.
Next Problem ...... NONE OF MY ADOBE SOFTWARE WORKS AT ALL NOW! NOTHING WILL EVEN START UP!! Says I must re-install Application Manager. Do this 3 times!
Back on Chat and the person hangs up on me while transfering to another Tech ......................
I AM NOT A HAPPY CUSTOMER.
I've been using Photoshop and Illustrator since the 90's .. Never have I had issues like this with either the software or support. I'm very disappointed.

Message when I try to start my Adobe Products: Illustrator CS6, InDesign CC, Lightroom CC, Dreamweaver CC, After Effects CS6::
Adobe Application Manager, required to run your product, is missing or damaged.
Please download a new copy of Adobe Application Manager from
http://www.adobe.com/go/applicationmanager.
Start AppMgr and it's running just fine.

    Why has Apple not looking in to account merging if so many people are requesting for it.

    Sorry, no one here will know what or why Apple may be doing/changing.

  • New, to me, Leica D-LUX 6. I just upgraded my Mac to Yosemite. I can't open the RWL files even though I upgraded the DNG file. I am using Photoshop 6. It does taks wonderful jpg. pics but, I would love to have the RAW files open.

    Files on my computer. I upgraded the DNG file. I am using Photoshop 6. This camera takes pretty good pictures in JPG. but I would love to have the RWL files open.
    Does anyone have any idea of what works?

    Realised pretty soon some thing was not right with images but continued work flow with out problems with any other import
    Exactly what was not right?
    Most likely a hardware problem causing corruption in the transfer of files from SD card to your computer. It could be the SD card itself, card reader, hard disk or memory.
    Side issue:
    Open Lightroom 4 on macbook air import to HD
    Drag and drop in Lightroom on to external HD
    why don't you save yourself a step and import directly to the external HD (and thus also produce one less place where file corruption can happen)?

    Just download and install 5.7.1. Don't worry about earlier versions.
    You'll need to enter your serial number to license the software.

  • Every time i want to download an app, i have to answer 3 security questions. How can I change this?

    Why do I have to answer 3 security questions everytime I want to download an app?

    The power DVD app is active, and seems to download ok.  You have already deleted the app? 
    I suspect what is happeneing is that a download is in your queue, and is blocking the queue until it completes, thus the message every time you try to do a down load.  It may be failing because while it thinks you have the app, it is not finding it, and doesn't know what to do.  ( sounds like a poorly designed download).
    I think the way around this might be for you to resync with your iTunes, and let it reload the app onto your pad.  Let it complete the download.  Then, if you do not want the app, delete it again from your pad, and if you never want it, from I tunes as well.
    The next time they do an update, you may wind up in the same situation, so if it happens again, until they fix the download routine, you will get stuck again.
    So try the suggestion, and see if this clears it out.
    The other option would be to open your account in I tunes on your computer, let it complete the download there.

    I have photoshop cs6 for mac but I would like to make one of my 2 seats installed on my PC, how would I get another serial number since this one is just for mac?

    Hi Matthew,
    Perpetual products which use serial numbers are platform specific. You will not be able to use the same serial on a windows machine.
    In order to use Photoshop on both Windows and Mac you will have to go for a creative cloud subscription.
    Thank you for posting on Adobe Forums

    In order to get those to work you will have to upgrade to Snow Leopard 10.6.8.
    Start by checking if you can run Snow Leopard:
    Requirements for OS X 10.6 'Snow Leopard'
    http://support.apple.com/kb/SP575
    The OS 10.6 Snow Leopard install DVD is available for $19.99 from the Apple Store:
    http://store.apple.com/us/product/MC573/mac-os-x-106-snow-leopard
    and in the UK:
    http://store.apple.com/uk/product/MC573/mac-os-x-106-snow-leopard
    but nobody knows for how long it will be available.
    When you have installed it, run Software Update to download and install the latest updates for Snow Leopard, preferably the full 10.6.8 combo updater.

  • I'm using a new computer and to open one website I have to answer the security questions each time saying that the site doesn't recognize this computer.

    Each time I try to open my "ubt" website, I get a message that says the site does not recognize this computer so I have to answer the security questions each time. I get the message "You are attempting to log in to your account from a computer that we do not recognize..." All other websites work just fine. The Mac store person could not figure it out. This site works on Safari, but I prefer Firefox.

    The ipod is not a backup device. The music sync is one way - computer to ipod.  The only exception is itunes purchases:  Without syncing:File>transfer Purchases
    Copy everything from your backup copy of your  old computer to your new one.

  • I am using photoshop cc 2014.2 And when I use save for Web it gives me a dialog box that says it is using Latin characters I've never seen this before. Does anyone have an answer for this problem or do I need to go back to the older version of Photoshop.

    What Firefox version is currently installed on the computer?
    You can find the full version of the current current Firefox release (37.0.2) in all languages and all operating systems here:
    *https://www.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/all/
    If you have a very old Firefox version then you could consider to uninstall that version to clean up existing registry keys (especial the uninstall key).
    Make sure NOT to remove "personal data" when you uninstall Firefox, because that will remove all profile folders and you lose personal data like bookmarks and passwords including data in profiles created by other Firefox versions.
    Check the Firefox program folder and remove the Firefox program folder if there are still files left in it.
    *(32 bit Windows) "C:\Program Files\Mozilla Firefox\"
    *(64 bit Windows) "C:\Program Files (x86)\Mozilla Firefox\"
    It is important to delete the Firefox program folder to remove all the files and make sure that there are no problems with files that were leftover after uninstalling.
    *http://kb.mozillazine.org/Uninstalling_Firefox
    Your bookmarks and other personal data are stored in the Firefox profile folder and won't be affected by an uninstall and (re)install, but make sure NOT to remove personal data when you uninstall Firefox as that will remove all Firefox profile folders and you lose your personal data.

  • Every time I sync my iPhone with iPhoto I end up getting duplicate photos on my iPhone. The other problem is that I can not delete the dups on my iPhone.   Does anyone have an answer to this problem?

    Every time I sync my iPhone with iPhoto I end up getting duplicate photos on my iPhone. The other problem is that I can not delete the dups on my iPhone.   Does anyone have an answer to this problem?

    Mike whether I create a folder within the Pictures Folder that iTunes uses to sync photographs or just copy them into the main folder the result is the same, I end up with Photo Library plus another album containing an identical set of pictures as contained in Photo Library.
    The User Manual for iOS5 states ...
    You can create, rename, and delete albums on iPhone to help you organize your photos and videos.
    Create a album: When viewing albums, tap Edit, then tap Add. Select photos to add to the new album, then tap Done. Note: Albums created on iPhone aren’t synced back to your computer.
    Rename an album Tap Edit, then select an album.
    Rearrange albums Tap Edit, then drag up or down.
    Delete an album Tap Edit, then tap the delete sign.
    Yes I can Add a new Album, but cannot delete an album already created. The delete sign does not appear.
    In iTunes the only folder that I can see listed is the man one into which iTunes stores pictures, which I have named iPhone Photos.
    When I look on my PC this iPhone Photos folder contains another folder named iPod Photo Cache and a multitude of folders created by iTunes, the named F00, F01,F02 etc etc. and a Photo Database file.
    Now whether I create a seperate folder within iPhone Photos to store my favourite photos in, or just copy them all into the iPhone Photos folder without being encased within another folder, or create a folder inside the iPod Photo Cache folder the result is the same ...
    I end up with Photo Library plus another album containing an identical set of pictures as contained in Photo Library.
    I am going around in ever decreasing circles here and getting nowhere fast!!

    1. See my User Tip for some help: Some Solutions for Resetting Forgotten Security Questions: Apple Support Communities.
    2. Here are two different but direct methods:
        a. Send Apple an email request at: Apple - Support - iTunes Store - Contact Us.
        b. Call Apple Support in your country: Customer Service: Contacting Apple for support
            and service.
    3. For other queries about Apple ID see Frequently asked questions about Apple ID.
    4. Rescue email address and how to reset Apple ID security questions
    It may say to contact Apple, but not us. We are just a user forum.

    I would like to retrieve the answer of security question i don't have second mail! 

    If you mean that you don't have a rescue email address (you won't be able to add one until you can answer your questions) then you will need to contact iTunes Support / Apple in your country to get the questions reset.
    Contacting Apple about account security : http://support.apple.com/kb/HT5699
    When they've been reset you can then use the steps half-way down this page to add a rescue email address for potential future use : http://support.apple.com/kb/HT5312
