The solution is in disk permissions

If you are a PC user it may be different (run as administrator type of thing) but for mac this is it:

Dynamic link media error

o fix the permission:

- Hold down the Alt (Option) key when using the Go menu. The user library folder is now listed below the current user's home directory. Click and open the library folder.

- Select the Preferences folder. Press command-I to get Info. Expand sharing and permssions at the bottom of the Get Info dialog. Select your user name, the one with (me) after it and make sure Read & Write privileges are set, not Read Only.

- If that folder is ok move down to the Adobe folder in Preferences and do the same check.

- If that folder is ok move down to the Plugins folder in the Adobe folder and do the same check. I suspect this is the bad one.
