[QUOTE="skays, post: 1755260, member: 137863"] I have been trying to install some Adobe software purchased from an online vendor. Installing on macOS Sierra requires that I open the Utility/Terminal program, enter a short code string and after hitting enter, I must enter my admin password. After entering the short code string and hitting enter, the next line shows with the small "Key" icon and I when I enter my admin password, unlike entering the code, I can see no keystrokes or characters on the Terminal screen. I hit enter after entering my password, and do not see any error messages so I assume the password was entered. Am I entering data into Terminal correctly?? I am using a 27-inch iMac (late 2013) with 16Gb RAM. [/QUOTE]
