Yosemite is Blocking Adobe Permissions

After installing Yosemite a few months back, I cannot open Photoshop or Photoshop Express. I get 2 different error messages 213:11 and 150:30 - they are permission problems. I have tried searching and contacting Adobe with no result. I've tried posting on their board and no response. I even purchased an upgrade/new version of Express and received a similar message trying to install. Also, my MAC (2013) is so much slower as a result of Yosemite. I'd get rid of it if I had the time and knowledge!

Sooooo, it's clearly something on my MAC that's blocking these 2 programs. The cynic in me thinks it could be so that you'll go back to buying and using only Apple photo software. So disappointed with Apple these days. Seems they are spending more time on the latest and greatest and they're not putting out quality software any longer. Sorry, I digress.

So far, I've run the disk utility and repair disk and permissions. Is there anyone out there that knows what I could do or if there is a service to help patch it? I'm not a techie, programmer or any sort of experienced person. HELP!!!!!

iMac (27-inch, Late 2013), OS X Yosemite (10.10.1)

There is a Java problem with some Adobe apps under Yosemite. Have you installed this? Java for OS X 2014-001

Searching for the 150:30 and 213:11 errors turns up a lot of results, including some claims of fixes: http://www.linus-neumann.de/2009/12/26/fixed-error-15030-adobe-cs4-licensing-pro blem/

Thank you for your response. I did download the new Java. Neither of the other solutions helped. I've gone through permissions and added Read and Write.

I'll google solutions too. Thanks for trying to help!

I ran into the 150:30 error myself, but it was long enough ago that I am no longer sure how I fixed it. I know I used the License Recovery Tool, deleted the FlexNET folder, etc. One thing that may have helped is using Little Snitch to keep Adobe apps from phoning home.

Here's another discussion of the 150:30 problem and possible fixes: http://blog.erikphansen.com/adobe-cs4-error-15030-aka-i-hate-adobe-reason-34/
