Yosemite won't update programs or open documents

Last night I updated to Yosemite assuming it would help my computer and apps run smoother. However after the installation none of my important apps such as numbers and pages will update and are just stuck on pause and the resume button doesn't do anything. I also tried to open some of my homework projects that I have to get done for school and they refuse to open. I've moved them into the icloud system like some people have suggested on other threads but nothing happens. I really need to open those docs as they are assignments do soon. Any help in this area would be helpful and appreciated.

Document info fields in Word won't update when placed in document header-section

Dear all,
I have a document library using 3 Content Types with metadata columns and a Word-template.
The values of these metadata columns should be displayed within the Word-documents created from content type.
So I've inserted document info fields into the Word-template to display them.
But unfortunately the placeholders are not updated when opening the document again, after metadata values had been changed e.g. by using the edit-form within the list.
From what I have seen so far, this only refers to document info fields resident in header or footer sections.
But this is where I need to place them.
Does anybody know this issue and has an idea of how to fix it?
Could VBA be of use here?
Best regards,
Ben

Hi,
Based on your description, document info fields in Word won't update when placed in document header-section.
Per my test, document info fields in Word will update when placed in document header-section.
Refer to the following article about Add SharePoint Metadata to Word Documents:

Unable to find my Microsoft Office 2010 to use as a default program to open documents. How to...

I want to use my Microsoft Office 2010 program as the default program to open document. When I browse for the program a follow the path, I end up without a program to select. Where do I find the correct path to be able to choose it as the default program?

Microsoft Office is not a free program, you have to purchase it.
Some new PCs may have Office as a free trial, but when the trial is over, you will need to purchase it.

Captivate 7 (w/ OS X Mavericks Update) Crashing AFTER opening document.

System: iMac, 27-inch, mid 2010
Processor: 3.2 GHz Intel i3
OS: OS X 10.9 (Mavericks)
Captivate Version: 7.0.1.237
I have several Captivates authored entirely in Captivate 7 on this same machine that will silenty crash after opening the document. The document will remain open for anywhere between 1 - 5 seconds and then Captivate will simply close. No fanfare. No notification. Just gone.
Observations:
Launch Captivate alone with no document - this appears to be stable.
Launch document directly by double-clicking on document - May crash
Launch Captivate first then double-click on document in finder - May crash
Launch Captivate then open document from within Captivate "Open" menu - May crash
Any combination of above with large number of open applications (i.e. Flash, Photoshop, Chrome, iTunes etc...) - May crash
Any combination of above with no open applications (i.e. Flash, Photoshop, Chrome, iTunes etc...) - May crash
Launch Captivate file on PC - this appears to be stable. No issues launching same files on a PC.
Oddly enough, this issue seems to resolve itself at random. After making several attempts to open the same document, it will finally remain so. It can be fully edited, saved and published after that. However, the next document (even if it is the same one) may start crashing again.
Has anyone else encountered this problem or know of a fix?

Hi there
While I cannot offer a fix, I would strongly encourage you (and others) to report as a bug to Adobe.

HT1420 My Itunes match won't update or even open on my laptop, I always get an error message saying something cause the program to close and windows is looking for a solution. Then I tunes closes.

i like imatch and icloud cause i can keep up with my music easy. lately I authorized my laptop, an HP, so I can play my music on the go. Well for some reason when I open I tunes, imatch automatically tries to update and then i get a message that something has stopped itunes from running, windows will find a solution, program needs to close. i have tried compatiability mode but i get a message saying itunes won't run correctly in compatability mode. tempted to delete the program and reinstall.

i also tried to download the Windows Installer CleanUp Utility, but that too gives me an error message when i try to run it.
Is that an 800A0046 error, megan?
If so, can you get CleanUp to install if you do a run as administrator, as per the following document?
[Error "800A0046 - Permission Denied" when installing the Windows Installer Cleanup Utility in Windows Vista|http://www.winhelponline.com/articles/170/1/Error-800A0046---Permission-D enied-when-installing-the-Windows-Installer-Cleanup-Utility-in-Windows-Vista.htm l]
If you're getting a different error message from CleanUp, let us know what it says. (Precise text, please.)

Acrobat Pro 9.4.5 Updated, now won't launch program or open pdfs

Downloaded and updated 9.4.5 when prompted. Ran update but think there may have been a glitch. I haven't been able to launch the application or open pdf documents since. (OSX 10.6.8).
Was going to uninstall but can't find Acrobat Pro Unistall app. on my computer (Own CS5 Design Premium, and have searched and found the other application uninstallers. See attachment)
1) Is there some sort of patch or update for this? If not, is there some sort of support where I can contact Adobe directly about this issue? (I already filed a bug report).
2) Where can I download Acrobat Pro 9.? uninstaller? (I still have my old Mac from CS4, should I try using that???)
Upgrading to CS5.5 and or AcrobatX is not an option at this time. Please advise.

Thanks for your response Steve.
Don't quite know what happened. I'm technically challenged. I just inserted the disks and double clicked to "install". I have two Macs, one at work and one at home. The one at home which was installed after the one at work looks correct. I am copying that and bringing my application disks to work to uninstall/reinstall.
Main question, is there a problem with Acrobat Pro 9.4.5? Do you suggest I uninstall, re-install this program?
TIA MrsMelbyElvis

Why won't the program fully open?

I bought Adobe Premiere Elements 8 a while ago but have lacked a computer that could handle it properly. I recently bought a powerful laptop so I installed Premiere Elements 8 right away, hoping to edit some videos. Unfortunately for some reason it can't open fully. I will choose a name and destination to save the project but when I try to actually work with the program it freezes on me, not telling me what is wrong.
I have tried uninstalling and reinstalling to the same result. What can I try?

How much free, clean, freshly defragmented space is on your C drive? Brand new computers can be a mess of fragmentation and temp files. First, ensure you have at least 20-30 gigs of free space. Then run this free program to clean things off:
http://www.iobit.com/advancedsystemcareper.html
Then defragment your drive.
Also, manually go to Windows Update and ensure you have even the non-critical updates. And go to Apple.com and ensure you have the latest version of Quicktime per the program's requirements.
If it still won't open, please provide us more information about your computer including your operating system, your processor speed and your RAM load.

Opacity/Fill updates impact multiple Open Documents - CS5&4

A weird one that happens in both PS CS4 & CS5, 100% consistently:
When more than one document with at least one non-background layer is open, the amount of a *changed* opacity field value in the current document is also applied to a *selected* non-background layer of the next document if Ctrl-Tab is pressed to go to the next document (or to the Previous document if Shift-Ctrl-Tab is used to go to the Previous) while the Opacity field still has post-update focus. (To avoid, press Enter or otherwise exit the *updated* Opacity field before pressing Ctrl-Tab or Shift-Ctrl-Tab to go to another document.)
In CS4 even a background layer is auto-converted to a non-background layer prior to applying the value from the previous document's updated Opacity field.
In CS5, if the secondary document has *multiple layers* and the background layer is selected in the secondary document, pressing Ctrl-Tab or Shift-Ctrl-Tab to go to the secondary document from a primary document post-Opacity-change causes an immediate Windows 7 APPCRASH event, closing PS due to a 0xc0000005 access violation.
The same behavior occurs for the Fill field.
All of the above is completely repeatable.

Never mind my previous comment. I was able to reproduce the behavior you reported, though I haven't seen a crash (with CS5 12.0.3).
There's an Adobe bug report form here:

Parallels - how to set preferred program to open documents? now trying ...

now that i've installed parallels (which is cool - helps me use GoToMyPc, which wouldn't work otherwise...but crashes and lags. however, does make me THANK GOD I'm a mac user. windows *****)....
anyway, when i try to open a document, it is set to default wordpad and tries to go through parallels.
how can i set word as the default to handle that type of document?
THANKS!

With Parallels running, but the virtual machine off i.e. Windows not running, under the Edit menu select 'Virtual machine...'
On the left of the window that appears, in the 'Resource' column, there is the 'Shared Applications' selection. Click it and these options will appear on the right of the window.
You can click on the 'Help' button once you've selected the 'Shared Applications' options and it will explain further about the options.

After iTunes 10.6 update, program won't open

I just downloaded the iTunes 10.6 update and now my iTunes will not open. The icon in my dock will jump a few times, as if the program were opening, but then nothing happens. Any fixes?

I am having exactly the same problem. More specifically, after not loading, it comes up with the following message:
"The iTunes application could not be opened. An unknown error occurred (13010)."
Can anybody help?

I'm can't open documents in iword, and the program also won't shut down properly.

I have been having trouble with pages for a couple of weeks now. When I try to shut it down, it won't close. I've tried force quit, but that doesn't work either. Then, I can't shut down my computer properly either. Finally, which seems related to me, I suddenly can't open documents that I've typed into word. Any suggestions?

Did you try a Force Quit?
Press command + option + esc keys together at the same time.
Wait. Force Quit window will appear.
Select Mail and click the Force Quit button
Wait. Mail will quit.

My mini Mac with a i5 processor is extremely slow to open documents and programs. Is there a solution to this??

Anyone can asset me please. My mini Mac is a 2.3 GHZ i5 Core. 8 GB Ram 13333 MHz with OS 10.7.5.
Pretty much since day one this computer is very..extremely slow to respond to any command. Opening documents or programs the system spin for ever.
Any idea what could be causing this??? I was told that to many pictures slow down the system, I have only 700 pic on file

1. This procedure is a diagnostic test. It changes nothing, for better or worse, and therefore will not, in itself, solve the problem. But with the aid of the test results, the solution may take a few minutes, instead of hours or days.
Don't be put off by the complexity of these instructions. The process is much less complicated than the description. You do harder tasks with the computer all the time.
2. If you don't already have a current backup, back up all data before doing anything else. The backup is necessary on general principle, not because of anything in the test procedure. Backup is always a must, and when you're having any kind of trouble with the computer, you may be at higher than usual risk of losing data, whether you follow these instructions or not.
There are ways to back up a computer that isn't fully functional. Ask if you need guidance.
3. Below are instructions to run a UNIX shell script, a type of program. As I wrote above, it changes nothing. It doesn't send or receive any data on the network. All it does is to generate a human-readable report on the state of the computer. That report goes nowhere unless you choose to share it. If you prefer, you can act on it yourself without disclosing the contents to me or anyone else.
You should be wondering whether you can believe me, and whether it's safe to run a program at the behest of a stranger. In general, no, it's not safe and I don't encourage it.
In this case, however, there are a couple of ways for you to decide whether the program is safe without having to trust me. First, you can read it. Unlike an application that you download and click to run, it's transparent, so anyone with the necessary skill can verify what it does.
You may not be able to understand the script yourself. But variations of the script have been posted on this website thousands of times over a period of years. The site is hosted by Apple, which does not allow it to be used to distribute harmful software. Any one of the millions of registered users could have read the script and raised the alarm if it was harmful. Then I would not be here now and you would not be reading this message.
Nevertheless, if you can't satisfy yourself that these instructions are safe, don't follow them. Ask for other options.
4. Here's a summary of what you need to do, if you choose to proceed:
☞ Copy a line of text in this window to the Clipboard.
☞ Paste into the window of another application.
☞ Wait for the test to run. It usually takes a few minutes.
☞ Paste the results, which will have been copied automatically, back into a reply on this page.
The sequence is: copy, paste, wait, paste again. You don't need to copy a second time. Details follow.
5. You may have started the computer in "safe" mode. Preferably, these steps should be taken in “normal” mode, under the conditions in which the problem is reproduced. If the system is now in safe mode and works well enough in normal mode to run the test, restart as usual. If you can only test in safe mode, do that.
6. If you have more than one user, and the one affected by the problem is not an administrator, then please run the test twice: once while logged in as the affected user, and once as an administrator. The results may be different. The user that is created automatically on a new computer when you start it for the first time is an administrator. If you can't log in as an administrator, test as the affected user. Most personal Macs have only one user, and in that case this section doesn’t apply. Don't log in as root.
7. The script is a single long line, all of which must be selected. You can accomplish this easily by triple-clicking anywhere in the line. The whole line will highlight, though you may not see all of it in the browser window, and you can then copy it. If you try to select the line by dragging across the part you can see, you won't get all of it.

Copy the selected text to the Clipboard by pressing the key combination command-C.
8. Launch the built-in Terminal application in any of the following ways:
☞ Enter the first few letters of its name into a Spotlight search. Select it in the results (it should be at the top.)
☞ In the Finder, select Go ▹ Utilities from the menu bar, or press the key combination shift-command-U. The application is in the folder that opens.
☞ Open LaunchPad. Click Utilities, then Terminal in the icon grid.
Click anywhere in the Terminal window and paste by pressing command-V. The text you pasted should vanish immediately. If it doesn't, press the return key.
9. If you see an error message in the Terminal window such as "Syntax error" or "Event not found," enter
exec bash
and press return. Then paste the script again.
10. If you're logged in as an administrator, you'll be prompted for your login password. Nothing will be displayed when you type it. You will not see the usual dots in place of typed characters. Make sure caps lock is off. Type carefully and then press return. You may get a one-time warning to be careful. If you make three failed attempts to enter the password, the test will run anyway, but it will produce less information. In most cases, the difference is not important. If you don't know the password, or if you prefer not to enter it, press the key combination control-C or just press return three times at the password prompt. Again, the script will still run.
If you're not logged in as an administrator, you won't be prompted for a password. The test will still run. It just won't do anything that requires administrator privileges.
11. The test may take a few minutes to run, depending on how many files you have and the speed of the computer. A computer that's abnormally slow may take longer to run the test. While it's running, there will be nothing in the Terminal window and no indication of progress. Wait for the line
[Process completed]
to appear. If you don't see it within half an hour or so, the test probably won't complete in a reasonable time. In that case, close the Terminal window and report what happened. No harm will be done.
12. When the test is complete, quit Terminal. The results will have been copied to the Clipboard automatically. They are not shown in the Terminal window. Please don't copy anything from there. All you have to do is start a reply to this comment and then paste by pressing command-V again.
At the top of the results, there will be a line that begins with the words "Start time." If you don't see that, but instead see a mass of gibberish, you didn't wait for the "Process completed" message to appear in the Terminal window. Please wait for it and try again.
If any private information, such as your name or email address, appears in the results, anonymize it before posting. Usually that won't be necessary.
13. When you post the results, you might see an error message on the web page: "You have included content in your post that is not permitted," or "You are not authorized to post." That's a bug in the forum software. Please post the test results on Pastebin, then post a link here to the page you created.
14. This is a public forum, and others may give you advice based on the results of the test. They speak only for themselves, and I don't necessarily agree with them.

IMac display issues: black icons and folders, doubled up files in finder windows, programs won't update

HELP!
I'm hoping someone can help with my iMac 27" purchased in 2010. From a previous discussion I started a year ago, I have had virtually nothing but trouble with it. After the internal hard drive crashing, I was able to install OS X on an external drive and used it for a good 8 months to drive my iMac and I took it to an expert who has replaced it with a 3tb HDD, but at some point the display has gone crazy. I am not certain if it is hardware, i.e. graphics card or video but I'll describe the symptoms and add some pics to see if anyone has seen this before and knows what the problem may be.
1.     90% of the screen was covered with white with just a portion of the desktop showing through.
        (This happened when I tried to reinstall OS X on the old HDD and the new one, but didn't happen when using OS X install disc)
2.     Files, folders, photos and some icons on the dock go black
3.     Files and photos double up when in Finder. When I'm viewing photos, it shows them but all the previous panes and the photos are jumbled behind the
        photos.
4.     Anything I open in Preview is completely black, but ColourSync Utility opens everything fine.
5.     Programs won't update. They will download onto my iMac but won't update. Some say, because I don't have OS X 10.6.8 others just won't open.
        Including Google Chrome, opens with two tabs open but when I open a third tab the rainbow wheel just turns. Skype won't open just gives a failure
        report.
6.     10.6.8 Update Combo downloads but when I restart the screen is covered in white - as in 1. and I have to reinstall OS X 10.6.2 to get the screen to               clear but then all the above problems continue.
7.     Sometimes videos don't display in Youtube, or the entire page other than the video player is covered in rainbow lines.
8.     Some buttons are blacked out on selection pages, i.e. system preferences, or saving screens
9.     Photos opened in FB go upside down and flicker all over the page as my mouse runs over them.
10.   Photos won't upload into internet editing programs.
I can't find anyone who has had the same issue in all of the discussions I've looked at, but it sounds like I have a video problem, but I wondered if it might be a software problem with flash or something. Or I have something malicious on my computer.
I also have an iphone 5 that faulted with the iTunes and USB icons and won't fix after trying one of those R-Sims, and I wondered if somewhere along the line it may have even had a virus/trojan/malware that has infected my external drive and then my internal drive. A reason I have thought that is because I have used my daughter's MacPro laptop and plugged in my external drive and I noticed the windows in hers were starting to do the same thing.
And on top of all that, my fans didn't work for over a year and I had to place an external fan at the back of the computer or it would overheat and shut down, but after resetting the SMU it started working again, but it is very noisy. I have tried to download SMC Fan Control and although it downloads to the HDD, it won't open.
Sorry its such a long post, I do hope with all of this information someone can help me.
Thanks so much.

HI and Welcome to Apple Discussions...
*Soon after, I installed Quake Wars, L4D 1, 2, Mass Effect 2, Need For Speed: Undercover, Mozilla Firefox and *Sophos Enterprise AV*. Approximately a week after installation, I began to experience malfunctions varying greatly*
Macs get grumpy when running anti virus software. Disable or completely uninstall Sophos A/V and see if that makes a difference. A/V software on a Mac will slow the drive down more and more as time goes on.
Also, check the vendor sites for each 3rd party software you installed to make sure they are compatible with 10.6.x
The "hard reboots" are a result of the system freezing due to incompatible or outdated software.

Latest version of Pages won't open documents created in previous version.

Pages won't open documents created before update.

I got the same issue, here is what it says now: "My document" can’t be opened."
iOS Mavericks 10.9.2
Pages 5.1
What I did to get this issue:
- My file was created a month ago in Pages 5.1
- Today, I opened the file normally
- I clicked "duplicate" in order to make a back up from the current version
- The loading wheel kept running for a few minutes...Maybe my cache memory too busy?
- so, I "forced to quit" Pages
- I try to open my doc again in Pages 5.1, now it's a failure!!
- Then i tried to open on another Macbook with Pages 5.1 = Failure
- I updated Mavericks latest updates = Failure to open my doc
- Try to open in pages 4.3 = It says: "You need a newer version of Pages to open this document..."
I need a fix asap, it's terribly important to get my document back

Aperture won't update to 3.6 under Yosemite

I updated my computer this evening to Yosemite, and all of a sudden Aperture does not work. So, I see that there is an update available for Yosemite compatibilty, and when I go to update, I get the following error: And this was a legit copy of Aperture that I bought way back when 3 came out (actually it was an upgrade from v2)... Any ideas?

OK, here is the solution that worked for me... a total pain in the rear, but hey it worked and I'm back in business...
- Download the latest version of OSX (prior to Yosemite) that you can from the App Store (once it downloads it will tell you it can't install, that's ok, we just need the installer)
- Download and install VMWare Fusion from www.vmware.com (they have a free thirty day trial).
- Once VMWare is installed, it will open up a wizard for creating a new Virtual Machine. Choose "Install from a Disc or Image" and then in the next screen, choose "Use another disc or image" at the bottom of the screen, then navigate to the "Install OS X Mavericks" which is now in your Applications folder.
- Once you have chosen this and clicked next through the next few wizard screens (asking where you will place the VM, etc) you will begin the MAC install on the Virtual Machine which takes about 30 mins or so. Once it is up I logged in with my apple id that I am using on my main machine (we are trying to map our aperture license to our apple id)
- Go grab a coffee, beer, glass of whiskey and wait.
- Once the install is complete and you are up and running on your Virtual Machine with Mavericks (which is the version i installed, but previous versions may work as well), now it is time to install Aperture on your Virtual Machine... You may have to map your CD drive with the installation media to the VM... Go to the Virtual Machine Menu, then select CD/DVD and then "Connect CD/DVD".
- Once Aperture is installed on your virtual machine, now go to the app store in the VM... Aperture won't be listed as an application to update "surprise", but if you scroll to the bottom of the page you will see a link for Incompatible software, click it and Aperture will show up... Now click Aperture in that list and it should bring you to the Aperture product page... on this page click "Update". It will then tell you that 3.6 is not available to run on your operating system, but it can install the latest possible version of the application. Confirm this and let it update.
- I opened aperture on the VM, but not sure that this is necessary.
- On your Yosemite installation, now go to the updates in the App Store and attempt to update Aperture... once I had updated the Aperture on my Virtual Machine, I was now magically able to update the Aperture on my Yosemite installation and it works (at first the icon on my tray didn't update, but clicking on it brought Aperture back up again!)
I hope this helps... this really put a scare in me last night and I've been trying to find a solution... I didn't want to roll back to a prior version of OSX just because I couldn't access my 500+GB of photos :-)
