Follow these steps in each user account on your Mac to restore Share button options and the Markup feature.

1. Open the Terminal app. You can launch Terminal from the Other folder in Launchpad, or enter "Terminal" in Spotlight search.
2. Copy and paste this command into the Terminal window:/System/Library/Frameworks/CoreServices.framework/Versions/A/Frameworks/ LaunchServices.framework/Versions/A/Support/lsregister -kill -seed
3. Press Return and wait for the Terminal prompt (ends in $) to reappear. It may take a few minutes.
4. Close the Terminal app.

If you have another user account on your Mac that has this issue, log into that account and repeat these steps.

This solved the problem in my iMac.

I have tried this advice from Apple and it worked.

Fixed it for me!🙂

Apple's fix above, via terminal, worked for me, however it can take a full hour, so give it plenty of time.

I have tried this approach 5 times and keep getting message: "No such file or directory" Help

Don't know what to tell you, Ray, it worked for me, almost instantly. As some have written previously, in some cases it may take longer...Just make sure that you have copied the Terminal command correctly.

Good luck

Hi there...

I had the same Problem with this "No such file or directory" error.

This error is caused by the line break when you paste it directly from the clipboard. There is a space between "LaunchSe rvices". So i fixed it and the job was done.

Paste the line into a Editor, delete the space,copy it and paste in the Terminal

best regards

TThanks. I found that space that shouldn't be there and also one Frameworks/ Launch. Fixed them both and it now works.

If sharing options and Markup are missing after you install OS X Yosemite

=)

I just spoke to Apple Support and they gave me this terminal command:

/System/Library/Frameworks/CoreServices.framework/Versions/A/Frameworks/LaunchSe rvices.framework/Versions/A/Support/lsregister -kill -seed

It took about 2 minutes to finish (you'll see the $ sign at completion). It worked for me! Hope this helps!

wonderful in 2 minutes, as I said in this forum, mine took close to an hour.

but it worked...
