Adobe Edge will not download to a computer running XP

Adobe Edge will not download to a computer running XP in case anyone is wondering.
I just spent a frustrating hour finding this out the hard way.
I do wish my cloud home page announced that face in big writing just above the Edge products that I could see from my XP computer.
I have put this into this forum, as a search on Adobe Edge will not download on Adobe forums during that frustrating hour produced nil results.
Sigh......

Whenever you looking for a specific app and if it's not listed on the CC Apps page, you should immediately route your thoughts to "may be it's not supported on the OS configuration" and to confirm that you are always welcome to review the tech specs page for each product (categorized separately for each product), quoted down below the CC Apps page (I agree if "Tech Specs" link can move up the page that will be helpful, Good and valid input for CC Page design)
Must seem like such a natural train of thought to an Adobe employee. But it's not how non-tech people think.
Unfortunately this post betrays the fact that Adobe does not understand how many of its customers, especially newbies, work in these situations.
No-one goes to a download link, fails to find it and 'immediately route your thoughts to "may be it's not supported on the OS configuration"'.
Hiding the download icons (for whatever "valid" technical reasons) simply wastes the user's time and starts a guessing game which creates confusion, frustration and anger.
The first thought is usually confusion, followed by wild guesses along the lines of:
Perhaps the website is broken or buggy
Perhaps my browser is broken or buggy
Perhaps my computer is broken or buggy
Perhaps I have done something wrong and must reinstall my software and/or operating system
All very unnecessary.
Confused, they then post in the forum.
Take a look throughout the forums to see this sentiment time and again.
Add a note to the Cloud homepage for non-geeks who don't think technically.
It's not that difficult.

    Leopard is no longer available at the Apple Store but may be available by calling Apple Phone Sales @ 1-800-MY-APPLE (1-800-692-7753).
    If you can't obtain a retail install DVD from Apple, look on eBay or Google the installer part numbers to possibly find at an on-line store. Here's what to look for:
    MB427Z/A  Leopard 10.5.1 install DVD
    MB576Z/A  Leopard 10.5.4 install DVD
    MB021Z/A  Leopard 10.5.6 install DVD (single user)

    This solved my questionRe: ios update problem - 7.1 11D167 iphoto not picking up new photos
    Mar 20, 2014 7:15 AM (in response to JdinPa)
    I figured out the fix for the Mac users having this problem. I connected my iPhone to my iMac and started iTunes. A dialogue came up in iTunes, I OK'd that and then OK'd the usual "Do you trust this Mac" that comes up on my iPhone.
    Suddenly Image Capture launched itself and there were all my photos, ready to be downloaded.

  • Itunes will not download onto my computer

    I used to have itunes on my computer. It asked me to do an update. Now it will not open on my computer. Its giving me an error.

    Click here and follow the instructions. You may need to completely remove and reinstall iTunes and all related components; this won't affect its library, but that should be backed up anyway.

  • Adobe Illustrator will not launch when Flash is running

    A few of our users have reported that once Flash is running Adobe Illustrator will not launch. We are moving from Windows XP SP2 to Windows XP SP3. The version of both Illustrator and Flash is CS2 (will be upgraded later to CS3).
    This used to work on SP2 - anyone can give some hints on this?

    Nobody ever solved this

  • Adobe Acrobat 9 Pro will not download to my computer

    My main computer crashed and I am trying to install Adobe Acrobat 9 Pro to my new computer.  I keep getting an error message Error 1305.  Error reading from file D:\Adobe Acrobat 9 Pro\Data1.cab   I purchased the program about 3 years ago.  Being a $400 program, I hope that I do not have to purchase a new program every time my computer crashes.  The progam is twice the cost of the refurbished computer that I purchased.  I already paid $400 for the program I have three years ago.  Does anyone have a solution for this?

    If your new computer only cost $200, that might be an issue - make sure it meets the minimum spec requirements.  But for the time being, check the following help document:

    I purchased 8 new songs to use for a Movie Maker project through iTunes.  They will not back up to my computer iTunes folder.  I am certain I am doing something wrong but can not figure it out.  I have already done the FILE > DEVICES > TRANSFER PURCHASES and it didn't work.  Any advice is welcome.
