I had some problems with Photoshop since the last update. Whenever I close, I get a pop up that tells me that the program has failed and is looking for a solution. Sometimes, it closes with the same pop up, when I completed a heavy task memory. I use Nik and it's at the end of certain operations of Nik she does this sometimes (rarely).

Packer of creative cloud in creating a package that I can install do not. He goes through the motions, download all updates, create setup file, but it does not work despite the fact that there are no errors in the log files
After hitting my head against the desk to repeatedly create packages, try on different computers I have finally found a solution.
These packages have been copied on an external drive, if I try and install from the external drive, which is a common practice, it fails.
If I then copy this file pkg from the outside, to the computer I install, then run it, it will to and moved very well.
That is mind-boggling stupid, because it's rare that you have to copy the file into any computer, it is less always installed off the coast of externally, and many people in the company are pushing on the network and the management of the suites so there is a serious problem in Adobe package manager if this is the case where it cannot manage the Middle installed offshore.
I hope that if anyone else is having problems so it suits.

I am trying to apply an animation preset, but it does not work.
I am trying to apply an animation preset, but it does not work. I did each procedure to apply a preset to a layer. But there seems to be nothing happens. I can't for the life of understand me this one. Help Adobe simply drag and drop the preset on the desired layer, and nothing has happened. What I am doing wrong? Please notify.
I use version 6.5 Professional on a Mac Pro computer.
Thank you.

Help Adobe simply drag and drop the preset on the desired layer, and nothing has happened.
You do not use a text layer? Predefined text are specific and only work on text layers native, you create before you apply the preset. Before I could think you try to use a preset to a newer version of AE, but you would get a warning for this. The same would be true if there was a linguistic dispute. So the most logical conclusion that certain preconditions are not met and EI cannot create the property controls to the settings contained in the preset.

I have a MacBook - OS 10.6.6 - Intel 3.06

It should work on a Mac as well.
Did you download and install the French version?
Download a new copy of the Firefox program and save the file on the desktop DMG

- Trash the present application Firefox to do a clean (re-) install
- Install the new version you downloaded

Firefox worm 25.
It downloads the pages slowly. I started it without plugins. I've updated all the plugins.
Sometimes Firefox Watch window 'Script on this page may be busy... ". «The status line showes "transfer data of...» »I would like to thank Christophe.
I did everything you mentioned, but it does not help.
I found the solution. The steps are:- 1 change of security for adobe flash in the C:\Windows\System32\Macromed\Flash\mms.cfg file add the line ProtectedMode = 0
- 2. set in Firefox Subject: config change dom.ipc.plugins.enabled to false and dom.ipc.plugins.java.enabled to true
- 3 disable hardware acceleration (advanced - general - settings)
I guess only the first step and half of second if enough.
We thank Assistant. My request can be closed.
