• Cannot open downloaded applications - Indesign and Illustrator

  Hi - I bought a subscription for one year for Indesign and Illustrator yesterday.   However, the entire suite is downloaded after a few hours.  I can't open, InDesign and Illustrator.   I get a comments box Adobe saying something like - to renew your subscription with a link or the message try again in 15 minutes.   I had downloaded the download Update Wizard.   It's very frustrating because I need to work on some files I had created previously when I took a subscription a few months ago that has expired due to an accounting issue.

  I would appreciate your help

• I may have inadvertently downloaded Firefox 5 instead of 4 and cannot open the application because it is not supported. Can I still download Firefox 4, which I was planning to do?

  I tried to update to Firefox 3 Firefox 4. But, after completing the download and then tried to open the Firefox application, I got a message saying: "Cannot open the application"Firefox"because it is not supported on this architecture." Is it possible that I may have inadvertently downloaded Firefox 5? I do not think that my system support
  Firefox 5. I'm not a geek, so I really appreciated any help you can give me. Thank you.

  "Adobe Acrobat Reader DC cannot open 'amy application' because it's a non supported file type or because the file is damaged."

  uninstalled Adobe.

  After you have uninstalled Abobe, I was able to get all my jobs and applications (with the exception of adobe files).

  Then I tried to re - install Adobe, but who has turned to a complicated procedure.

  There are so many choices, and there are a number of downloadable updates. What was I guess what to do?   But I have chosen one of the Adobes and tried to install it.

  After that I don't know what happened.  All my desktop icons are now Adobe icons in place.   that is The Firefox icon is now replaced by an icon of Adobe.  It is the same for several other desktop program icons. (QuickTime, chrome, Internet Explorer, etc.)

  When I try to open the program by clicking on it, I get the above message.

  I went to the site of help from Adobe and read a complex string of instructions, including

  words like '% pdf', "DWROD" and, for me, other nonsensical words and phrases.

  Needless to say that the instructions were no help.

  I said all that to say this.  I want that my computer back.  What should I do to do?

  Sincerely,

  Ralph Thompson

• Cannot open this application because it is not supported on this architecture CS5 on 10.5.8

  I just installed Adobe Creative Suite 5 Design Premium on my Mac running OS X Version 10.5.8. Once the download is complete, I tried to access my apps to see all program names are grayed out. When I double click on it, I get the following message: "Cannot open this application because it is not supported on this architecture."

  My computer is quite recent and it runs on an Intel Core 2 Duo processor. Someone else has experienced this problem or maybe having patches? I'm on hold with Adobe Support, but the waiting time is 1 hour 30 minutes... never heard of that before, but I'll wait as long as it takes.

  Any help on this would be greatly appreciated.

  That error pop up if the application is not installed. Adobe is never known for very useful error messages.

• Cannot open the application "Mail" because PowerPC applications are no longer supported

  I work on a MacBook Pro mid 2012

  Intel Core i5 2.5 GHz

  OS X El Capitan 10.11.6

  The Mail app suddenly quit and when I tried to resume, I got this message

  "Cannot open the application"Mail"because the PowerPC applications are no longer supported."

  This also happens with the "Maps" app

  All Mac software are up to date, but "Mail" has been working fine since my last update that was awhile ago.

  I am confused to say the least. Suggestions? Thank you!

  If you do a Get Info (command - I) on Mail and Maps applications, what version numbers do you see?

  Try a reboot.

  Make a backup using Time Machine or a cloning program, to ensure that data files can be recovered. Two backups are better than one.

  Try to set up another admin user account to see if the same problem persists. If back to my Mac is enabled in system preferences, the guest account will not work. The intention is to see if it is specific to an account or a system wide problem. This account can be deleted later.

  Isolate a problem by using a different user account

  If the problem is still there, try to start safe mode using your usual account.  Disconnect all devices except those necessary for the test. Shut down the computer and then put it up after a 10 second wait. Immediately after hearing the startup chime, hold down the SHIFT key and continue to hold it until the gray Apple icon and a progress bar appear. Startup is considerably slower than normal. This will reset some caches, forces a check for directory and disables all start-up and connection, among other things. When you restart normally, the initial restart may be slower than normal. If the system is operating normally, there may be 3rd party applications that pose a problem. Try to delete/disable the third-party applications after a reboot using the UN-Installer. For each disable/remove, you need to restart if you do them all at once.

  Safe mode - on El Capitan

  Start Mode without failure-El Capitan.

• Cannot open the application "Adobe Installer" because PowerPC applications are no longer supported.

  I'm trying to install Adobe Creative Suite 2 Premium on my MacBook Pro (OS X El Capitan).  When I click on the install icon, I get the following message: cannot open the application "Adobe Installer" because PowerPC applications are no longer supported.  Can I do to solve this problem?

  Try to install mode without failure. Hold the SHIFT key while rebooting.

• El Capitan: Cannot open the application "app name" because it may be damaged or incomplete

  Came across this several times. After you initially upgrade to El Capitan 10.11.2, after logging into my main account (admin), I was not able to open applications and received the following error:

  "Cannot open the application name"app"because it may be damaged or incomplete."

  I couldn't open "Activity Monitor", "System Preferences", "Finder" or anything (provided, App Store or other system). The icons will revert to the default application icon. Other users have no problem with the same apps.

  After the panic, I found a solution: go to another admin account, delete the old user account, and then add it again. This version corrects the problem of this user; It apparently rebuilt the user for that user identity information, while leaving their home folder (and preferences, documents, key rings, etc.) only. iCloud information must be re-entered, but it is trivial. Once the user delete and add, I was able to run these applications.

  When I upgraded to 10.11.3, it is the same thing, but to 3 accounts. I managed to solve this problem through the guest account - that is, I was still able to authenticate as an administrator, but I could not open a session and run anything.

  El Capitan removed permissions repair; I think it can be done in the recovery console, but I shouldn't do that.

  No idea why this continues to be?

  Generally to searching for the above error message is specific to applications from the App Store or other, not about things like "Activity Monitor" and "System Preferences."

  You now have this problem?

• Cannot open the application "iTunes" because another user is open.

  I recently bought a new computer with vista. Installed iTunes on this computer and found that there is a problem between the two profiles on the computer. I run iTunes on my profile - but whenever my wife profile is active we are getting consistent error messages indicating "cannot open the application"iTunes"as another user, he has opened." Ask the other user to quit the application and try again.

  I need to keep itunes open in my profile - and anyway, why are they bent them in two profiles in Vista... we never had this problem under XP.
  I asked Apple for advice, and they suggested to install itunes in the second profile... which I did and said to reinstall/repair...which is not the goal... Apple then told me to contact Microsoft support as he would have to do with the admin files...
  Any advice pls.
  Thank you

  Find the Itunes.exe in the Itunes folder in Program Files.  Right click on the .exe / Properties / compatibility, look down at the bottom of this page for the 'privilege level' and check the box that says "change settings for all users.  In the heartbeat window according to the box that says "run this program as an administrator".  This can only solve your problem if you can both run under the same user name.

  When you run a program as an administrator you should get a quick UAC (unless maybe you have turned off UAC?

  To see the file extensions, you may need to go into Control Panel / folder Options / discovers, there you can uncheck "hide known file type.
