  • Cannot download apps - constantly says that cc has lost functionality I have re installed several times and used the cc cleaning tool - HELP please not very impressed with not be able to use a new customer applications!

    Hi all

    New customer to CC, cc said constantly that he lost the functionality and to re - install, I have done this several times and used the CC cleaning tool. What's the point of having CC if you cannot use this?

    Thanks for your reply, but I spent some time with support online yesterday which has managed to make me sort, I do not have a UPDATER AAM file, I could not delete the contents of the OOBE folder either, I had to rename the folder creative cloud. I was sent then the application manager - who was then updated to the new until I'm able to get apps. Long-term, but it worked. I tried the procedure you have above, just not all the steps worked for me. Thanks to the Member of the support staff who helped me, I have been literally pulling my hair out!

  • MBP is overheating and I have to restart several times per day

    Hello

    My MBP is overheating, slowing to a crawl, and I have to restart several times a day (which may or may not help the issue).

    The machine is:

    MacBook Pro (retina, 13 inches, end of 2013)

    2.4 GHz Intel Core i5

    DDR3 4 GB 1600 MHz

    No expandable RAM (which is beyond me why they would make a non-expandable machine. I discovered after I bought it).

    During the day I am running:

    Mail application (with very complete box - this might be a contributing factor? Can I archive the emails registered)

    Safari (with different tabs open, sometimes a lot sometimes just)

    Messages

    EverNote

    Chrome (with different tabs open, sometimes a lot sometimes just)

    ... and from time to time, but not always:

    Overview

    Numbers of

    I'm not game. I'm not streaming video. After a few hours of use, several times a day (often 2-4 times just one afternoon) the machine slows to a crawl and I reboot, which may or may not solve the problem of the speed and the heat.

    I ran the activity monitor utility, and there are applications that I do not sometimes recognize using 11 to 18% of CPU (bird and soangent). Anyone know what here?

    Thanks for all the ideas. I bought this MBP in June. It was the refurb decision-making, where I got all my Macs over the past ten years. It is the worse of them.

    Thank you.

    Bird and soagent are the normal processes of Apple. Bird is one of the procedures used with the synchronize documents iCloud. soagent is used in conjunction with the Messages. In normal circumstances or will require an excessive amount of time processor. If you use Messages with a Google or other account not Apple (in other words, not exclusively iCloud) poor performance could be correlated with these accounts.

    In any event 11-18% seems a bit much for me. Try to uninstall Evernote as well as all Google products. Or the other could possibly conflict with push social agent and / or document the Apple process synchronization. Google is disinterested or impossible to implement effective OS X apps.

    Try to remove all accounts non - Apple Messages, but also completely remove Google from your Mac. You can always reinstall it and Evernote once again after a repair. Your data Google and Evernote is stored on their servers. Back up your Mac in any case, as a precaution.

    Mail application (with very complete box - this might be a contributing factor? Can I archive the emails registered)

    Perhaps. "Comprehensive" is relative. Some people keep dozens or even hundreds of thousands of e-mail messages. The practical limits of some Mail are, I don't know.

    4 GB is perfectly adequate to run El Cap on a MBP of the retina. It would be premature to suspect material deficiencies, but products Google will introduce a new Mac, regardless of its configuration.

    Run Apple Hardware Test to confirm that your exhaust fan MBP works normally. Apple Hardware Test is for Macs produced before June 2013. Later Macs use Apple Diagnostics.

  • Photos 1.3 "JDK 8 Update 73" shows under the heading import on the left.  I also have a pop up telling me to install it in safari.  Have already installed several times.  Any ideas?

    Photos 1.3 "JDK 8 Update 73" shows under the 'Import' section on the left.  I also have a pop up telling me to install it in safari.  Have already installed several times.  Any ideas?

    Looks like pictures which I assume you mean Apple's application to view and edit photo files is a 'disk' called JDK 8 update 73 ad.

    This implies that you have downloaded and mounted a "disk image file" for the update of Java and it is always 'mounted '. However the fact that you are still being harassed to install it in Safari implies that you have not run the update of Java installation package that must be inserted into the drive.

    Then, go back to the Finder and look for a drive in a window of Finder called "JDK 8 updated 73'. Click on that in the window of the Finder and the window should then list the contents of this disc. In this list should be something obviously to do with the installation, most of the installation files have an extension of the .pkg file, it could be called 'update Java 8 73.pkg. Double-click or open the pkg file and follow the instructions.

  • I think that some time in the past 6 months I have day which deactiveated my d drive help please restore

    Original title: d ' training

    I have windows vista and I think that some time in the past 6 months I have day which deactiveated my d drive help please restore

    Hi Kathyreedy-hardy,

    ·         What do you mean exactly when you say "deactiveated my d drive?

    ·         Remember the updates you have installed?

    I suggest you to check the status of the disk in disk management. To so proceed as follows:

    a. open the computer by clicking the Start button, click computer.

    b. open computer management by clicking the Start button, clicking Control Panel, clicking system and Maintenance, clicking Administrative Tools, and then double-click computer management.  If you are prompted for an administrator password or a confirmation, type the password or provide confirmation.

    (c) in the Navigation pane, click disk management.

    You can change the drive letter of the drive and see if that fixes the problem.

    See the article for more information:

    (My new kitten * power have stood on something on my keyboard - it has done this before and put the mode full-screen, but I managed to fix this)

    Normally, I scroll a web page a little at a time using the down arrow on my laptop keyboard key. Since yesterday, when I press the arrow down, the page jumps to the bottom (like pressing PageDown) and arrow high jump all the way to the top.

    How I put it back so that it scrolls a little while I press the button?
