I purchased my copy of CS3 years ago. The problem occurred when I did the re install.

Realizing how old this thread is, I’ve been looking for a way to download public domain stuff from youtube and others. Went to the keepvid site and tried a short youtube video. It came back that my java was disabled. Checked the preferences in Safari which indicated java was enabled. Not sure if there other places to look and not technically savvy enough to find/change the settings. Would appreciate advice. Thanks.

That was the fix. Had to ‘uncheck’ the shortcuts for F9 through F12. Thanks.

Thanks Ryan.
Tried your suggestion and when I pressed F10 it only went to a toggle which separates the windows. It could be a factor that the disk used for loading SL was meant for my mbp? Thought there might be something in the system prefs. keyboard shortcuts but not sure how to access it.Thanks again.

Interesting thread for sure. Still reading it so thanks.
I Should mention I am not running MOUNTAIN Lion, just Lion on the big hard drive. But thinking about it more I am more inclined to install Lion on the smaller internal drive and use the larger internal for SL and my audio/video apps. Then I can just reboot from one to the other through system preferences.
I’m thinking the idea of using the target mode from my MBP which has SL and the apps on it will be better. But will I have to wipe the large drive prior to this? Seems I would if it were clean.
I could then load Lion on the smaller drive with target mode. I have a thumb drive of Lion. Then get the updates.
Maybe it could actually work!
Thanks again.

“your other option is to isolate the operating systems to separate drives (as you were thinking of doing) and then do the “change the startup disk” routine in preferences each time you want to switch between them. of course then you can’t have both running at the same time, though.”
This is what I would like to do. The small internal drive has been erased and is ready, I think, to have the os installed. The problem I have run into is getting the os installed. When I put the SL disk in the main/large drive contains Lion and doesn’t allow the installation of older programs. I realize there must be a quick fix for this but I haven’t come across it yet. My brain is running on an ‘older program’ and sometimes crashes; hard!
Thanks again.

Gary, sorry for not getting back with you sooner. I should have mentioned I do have external drives, three of them. They are used for media storage as well as time machine backup.
The smaller internal drive is still blank and the larger still has lion.

or you could run one virtually using parallels or vmware…? I’m out of the loop on this one…
Think you got my gist. Just not sure how to proceed without having to have heart massage handy while doing it…
One (320gb) internal drive has SL, one (1tb) has Lion. Or, maybe it should be the other way around since videos take up so much more room???
Thanks again for your replies.
