Creative cloud will not install after using the Apple Migration Assistant to transfer again Mac
I used Migration Assistant to transfer applications to a new Mac. Creative cloud threw an error. I used uninstaller to remove the Creative app clouds, then downloaded the new version of the Adobe site. When you try to install, the installer of creative cloud crashes before installation.
I then launched an application, he said I need to save it. So I logged into my account, turned off all previous installations on other Macs. My apps work now. However, I still cannot install creative cloud desktop application (same behavior takes place).
I use the latest version of Yosemite on a Mac PowerBook.

Hello erind2001,
Sorry to hear that you are unable to get past the Apple Logo on your iPhone. We'll see what we can do about it.
To resolve this problem, you must restore your iPhone with iTunes. That doesn't erase everything but if you have backed up recently in iTunes or iCloud, then you can put on once the recovery is complete. Take a look at the article below to walk you helps to put your iPhone into recovery mode, then using iTunes to restore it.
Take care

iPhone will not be displayed in the finder
I'm trying to move some of the photos from my phone to a file on my computer and my phone will not be displayed in the tab "currencies" in the finder. It's an iPhone 6 and it is connected through the USB port. I know this isn't an error connection because when I plug it in it costs and is trying to import my photos in the section 'photos' from my computer. I went into the settings in the finder and all turned on and it will not always be displayed. Why is this?
Because Apple has decided that OS X is smarter than you and me. They removed this option on the latest versions of Mac OS X (my devices do not appear more, grrrr...). Try instead to use Image Capture and import or remove photos from there.

Install OSX 10.11.4 I do cleaning but R command will not work. With the help of USB keyboard so not wifi issues to to worry. Help?
Would you like to share why you must do a clean install?
You can try the recovery of the internet (which will work if your older model has been updated to enable of): hold command + Option + R until you see a progress bar (take a while). It will connect you to the Apple servers. When you see the utility window, choose disk utility to erase your disk and when you're done, choose to reinstall OS X.
Computers that can be upgraded to use OS X Internet Recovery - Apple Support
PS: Correction: I think not yours can be updated; in this case, you will need the original installation disks to wipe the drive and reinstall.

I know that with AVG, you must visit the AVG site to install an uninstall program to remove the program... seems absurd, I know, but that's what's happening with AVG...
