App Store app on Mac starts, but continues to show a corkscrew on the title without procedure bar.

Launch of the App store Mac OS 10.11.2 produces an empty window with corkscrew that persists without filling the screens of spinning.

I pref deleted files, cache files, restart the Mac, waited for hours without improvement. If anyone can help, that would be appreciated.

Please test after taking each of the steps that you have not already tried it. Stop when the problem is resolved. Back up all data before making any changes.

Sometimes, the cause of the problem may be an Apple network, whereby failure cases none of the steps below will have no effect. You just have to wait for the failure be fixed. This should rarely, if ever, take more than a few hours.

Step 1

Connect to the App Store by selecting Sign In in the Store menu. If you are already connected, disconnect and then reconnect.

Step 2

Log off or restart the computer.

Step 3

Remove or disable 'LittleSnitch' or any other third party software like that blocks outbound connections to network in accordance with the instructions of the developer.

Step 4

Start in safe mode and log on to the account of the problem.

Note: If FileVault is enabled in OS X 10.9 or an earlier version, or if a firmware password is defined, or if the boot volume is a software RAID, you can not do this. Ask for additional instructions.

Safe mode is much slower to boot and run as normal, with limited graphics performance, and some things work at all, including an audio output and a Wi - Fi connection on some models. The next normal boot can also be a bit slow.

The login screen is displayed even if you usually connect automatically. You need your password to log on. If you have forgotten the password, you will have to reset it before you begin.

After testing, restart as usual (not in safe mode).

Step 5

If possible, connect to a different network and test.

Step 6

Reset the NVRAM.

    I installed the light Advanced CSS Menu of Adjatix but I can't find it in the menu Insert or bar?

    Make sure you've got the Adobe Extension Manager CC Version 7.3.2.39 installed, and Dreamweaver is not running.

    Then go to Ajatix - download Dreamweaver Extensions (Add-ons) and Expression Web Add-Ins and download the correct extension. If you use Firefox, you will get a pop-up window asking what Firefox should do, at what point you should choose to open with Adobe Extension Manager CC (default). Sit and watch it all happen.

    I need to create a table of contents in iPages but I want only one word for the title, not the line of holes. Or, how can I change the contents of the table? Thank you!

    Yes, you can have a one word title, by assigning a paragraph style title to this one word. No, you cannot change the text in a Table of contents, but you can change paragraph style font attributes (line) and add for example, a head of points between the types of OCD paragraph and page numbers. No part of the table of contents will not provide hyperlinks in exported PDF documents.

    When you look up in the menu bar, you can see the word iPages, or simply Pages. There is no product of iPages.

  • Tested both app and now I have CC Team access on the same apps, same Adobe ID but cannot go beyond "trial expired" on the window of creative cloud.

    I tested two apps as a personal user using my work email. This trial has now expired and subsequently, we decided to buy Prem Pro and Adobe After Effects as a company. But my admin assigned my access to the Adobe ID team I had already tested the two apps. Now when I open the window of creative cloud, I just get the "trial expired" wall and he can't work that I now have access to these applications well historically tested them.

    Will it create a new Adobe ID to assign my "team access" to because I said that my current Adobe ID is 'personal' instead of a business account?

    Any help would be great!

    Thank you

    Alex, I checked the license details.

    It shows active for only After Effects.

    Seems you don't have Premiere Pro license.

  • Process of Firefox starts but doesn't show main window

    Hello

    Since a few days, I can't start Firefox. The beginning of the process, but hangs with a memory fixed space and zero CPU usage, and the main window simply will not start. No accident report is created. Kill the process and try again is the only option.

    I tried to start Firefox as administrator, which works (but is not recommended from a security perspective), and the fact Firefox start when Windows is in safe mode. Firefox also starts when TrendMicro OfficeScan processes are stopped, but it is hardly a solution in a commercial environment, be admin on my machine is already a special case.

    Periodically, events, Firefox starts, but the next time that the issue is back.

    After trying several methods of troubleshooting, I tried to perform a clean installation, nothing helps:
    -Remove Mozilla of App Data records (roaming and local)
    -Uninstall Firefox
    -Remove possibly remaining Mozilla Firefox in Program Files (x 86)
    -Run CCleaner
    -Restart
    -Re-install

    Currently I am looking in a procedure that could help me determine with certainty if OfficeScan is actually guilty and try to prove to my IT Department in order to the make degenerate into TrendMicro. Of course, if OfficeScan is not guilty, to find that a solution would be too perfect...

    System information:
    -Windows 7 Enterprise SP1
    -TrendMicro OfficeScan
    -Firefox latest version, 40.0.2 for the moment, the stub Installer.

    An alternative to consider is the Extended Support Release (ESR) version of Firefox? It is based on Firefox 38 but receives security patches at intervals similar to the standard version. Enterprise software providers can use this trial version (I guess they test...).

    You can learn more about ESE here: http://www.mozilla.org/firefox/organizations/

    To install it, I suggest:

    Clean reinstall it

    We use this name, but it isn't about deleting your settings, this is to ensure that the program, files are clean (not incompatible, corrupt or exotic code files). As described below, this process does not disrupt your existing settings. Don't uninstall NOT Firefox, that does not need.

    (A) download a fresh Installer for Firefox 38.2.0esr of https://www.mozilla.org/firefox/organizations/all/ in an ideal location. (Scroll down your preferred language).

    (B) the release of Firefox (if any).

    (C) to rename the program folder, either:

    (Windows 64-bit folder names)

    C:\Program Files (x86)\Mozilla Firefox
    

    TO

    C:\Program Files (x86)\Fx40
    

    (Windows 32-bit folder names)

    C:\Program Files\Mozilla Firefox
    

    TO

    C:\Program Files\Fx40
    

    (D) run the installer downloaded to (A). It should automatically connect to your existing settings.

    Install and run?

    Note: Some plugins can only exist in the old folder. If it is missing something essential, present in these files:

    • \Fx40\Plugins
    • \Fx40\browser\plugins

  • DPS App Builder Mac - files download .ipa .zip of error - cannot sign the application

    I'm about to go crazy with this DP App Builder error:

    -Buil-in App a simple edition

    -Application created within DPS App Builder with no problems

    -After finishing, I always get a download error the .ipa or the .zip saying:

    "Cannot sign the application. Check the certificate files are correct, then try to recreate the folio and a new application and try to download the application again. »

    After reading similar problems, I generated certificates more than 10 times, in different computers and nothing, still the same error.

    I followed the tip of Adobe in order to avoid special characters in the names of articles. Created the Folio Builder app. Nothing...

    Any ideas? Any help, please?

    Hi Christophe,

    Thank you for your message.

    But, in fact, I just finished for trash in the folio and re-created a new.

    And I say, that it was not easy because I took several hours, this...

    Try to create the application again WITH THE SAME CERTIFICATES AND MOBILE PROVISIONING PROFILES.

    It worked.

    He wasn't a certificate problem, it was a problem from Adobe!

    Files and InDesign documents are the same. Everything is the same.

    The worst part is that the DPS and Adobe process give us a hint about what might be wrong.

    Nothing... the only way is to wast hours and hours to search the forums and trying to test all kinds of things without knowing what is happening...

    However and once more, I thank you for your response.

  • Set - up.exe starts but does not show installation routine - what am I doing wrong?

    Hello

    I downloaded the trial version of aftermath. But if I start the set - up.exe it loads a green progressbar but does not continue with the installation routine itself. I already disabled my anti-virus software, but it did not help. What could I do?

    You can change the default installation location, although this is generally not recommended. Open the creative cloud desktop application and click the gear on the top icon to the right of the window. Choose Preferences > Apps > installation location > change. Navigate to the location you want, and then click Open. Your new installation location will appear in the menu.

  • Mac boots, but get error file not recognized on the main drive system

    Hi there, I just upgraded my hard drive to a 1 to. I used Carbon Copy clone to create an exact copy of my old 500 GB drive. I started using the new disc, everything seemed fine. But then I went to extend the partition and nothing happened. I clicked on check the disk and now I get this error? Problems with the partition plan?

    Ive tried to boot into recovery and run it there, always the same results. Any help out there?

    Thank you

    Aled.

    You have only one volume on the drive. As far as I can tell it will be to the entire physical disk. Therefore, you cannot extend it. You could reduce it only.

    To resize the car do the following:

    1 restart the computer after the ring, press on and hold down the COMMAND and R until the menu screen appears.

    Once the main menu appears, select disk utility and click on the continue button. Select the main hard drive, and then click the Partition tab in the main window of THE.

    2. you should see the window sizing graphic showing existing partitions. A party may appear as a blue rectangle that represents the space used on a partition.

    3. in the lower right corner of the rectangle sizing for each partition is a sizing gadget. Select it with the mouse and move the bottom of the rectangle to the top until you have reduced the score existing enough to create the new volume size desired. The area under the resized partition appears gray. Click on the apply button and wait until the process is complete.  (Note: you can only do a smaller partition to create the new free space.)

    4. click on the button [+] below the window size to add a new partition in the gray space you freed. Name the new volume, if you want, and then click the apply button. Wait until the process is completed.

    You should now have a new volume on the drive.

    It would be wise to have a backup of your system like resizing is not necessarily without risk of data loss.  Your drive must have enough contiguous free space to this process works.

    Do not create a partition Windows in this way. Use Boot Camp Assistant in your Utilities folder for this purpose.

  • Windows 7 starts, but goes to a black screen with the mouse before the Welcome screen

    Hello

    Remove all connected devices (except the mouse and keyboard if it is a desktop computer) to the computer and then try to start and check what is happening.

    You can try to boot from the installation disc, and then check if you are able to perform a startup repair, or run the Windows Memory Diagnostic tool.

  • my email is open, but no window shows? I get the email but cannot open the window to see?

    My mail app is open. I get an email, but I can't open the window to see. I restarted my computer and right clicking on the icon to open a new window. What can I do to get the window to open it? I can see my mail on other devices or online.

    Please stop Mail. Force quit if necessary.

    Back up all data before proceeding.

    If you use OS X 10.11 ("El Capitan") or version later, triple - click anywhere in the line below on this page to select:

    ~/Library/Mail/V3/MailData

    If you use an older version of Mac OS X, use this line:

    ~/Library/Mail/V2/MailData

    Copy the selected text in the Clipboard by pressing Control-C key combination. In the Finder, select

    Go ▹ go to folder

    in the menu bar. Paste in the box that opens by pressing Command + V, then press return.

    A file window opens. In it he must be files with names as follows:

    Index of the envelope

    ExternalUpdates.storedata

    Move these files to the desktop, leaving the window open. Other files in the folder can have names more long that begin as above. Move these files, if any, in the trash.

    Mail recovery. It should invite you to re - import your messages. You can get a warning that the index is corrupted and that Mail must quit smoking. Click OK. Generally speaking, the process takes a few minutes, but this can take hours if you have gigantic mailboxes. In this case, you will be able to speed things up temporarily by adding your file to the list of personal information protection in the Spotlight preferences pane. Remove it when Mail has finished importing.

    If the import operation stalls or fails with an error message, quit Mail, delete the two new index files (maintenance of the original that you moved to the desktop) and try again. According to several reports, the second attempt can succeed if one does not.

    Test. If Mail now works as expected, you can delete the files that you moved to the desktop. If not, post your results.
