10.3 and Adobe

Since upgrading to 10.3.9 from 10.2, double-clicking on a Photoshop or Indesign file will cause the application to launch but won't open the file. I have to go to file/open/filename. Everything else seems normal.
I have repaired permissions, zapped PRAM, checked for bad preference files, etc. Any suggestions?
Bill

Bill,
You may want to try doing a "Get Info" from the file Menu on a file in question after quitting Photoshop.app. First, click on or select a file (Photoshop, jpeg whatever file format you're trying to open with Photoshop) and then go to the Finder Menus>File Menu>Get Info. In the window that opens make sure that Adobe Photoshop is selected as the application to open such files. If not select it and then click "Change All". You may have to click the disclosure triangle to drop down the "Open With" section if it is closed.
Quit the Get Info pane and then relaunch Photoshop to test. You may have to logout/login or restart for the change to take effect....I can't remember off hand.
Post back if that doesn't do it. Also, if that isn't it post back exactly the file format you are trying to open (jpeg, Photoshop, etc.) and the version of Photoshop you are using as this may help further to troubleshoot it for you.

Adobe Creative Cloud and Adobe Creative Suite: New Choices for Customers

Adobe has announced the new Cloud-based model for software distribution, along with new terms for boxed product upgrade eligibility. Beginning with the CS6 releases, when they happen, upgrade pricing on boxed products will only be availble one generation back. There is a limited window to upgrade now to the current versions at a discount.
See http://blogs.adobe.com/conversations/2011/11/adobe-creative-cloud-and-adobe-creative-suite -new-choices-for-customers.html

Eugene:
Based on the current information we have (from the blog post), which may not be correct and which you should not rely upon:
There is some confusion about the word "discount." As used in the blog post, in general there are no "discounts" for upgrades, there is the upgrade price and there is full price. But, also in the blog post, there is a special "discount upgrade" if you choose to upgrade to CS5.5 today (prior to Dec. 31, 2011), which is 20% off the regular upgrade. However, Peter used the word "discount" to distinguish between upgrade pricing and full price. It's probably a good idea to avoid using that word there because of the potential for confusion.
I have CS5 InDesign in work. So I will be able to upgrade that to CS6 when it comes out at the discount price?
You will be able to upgrade to CS6 at upgrade pricing. Not the 20% discount, but it is "discounted" from the full price of CS6.
I'm still using CS2 Illustrator and Photoshop, for the little work I do in those programs, they're fine. But if I want to upgrade them to CS6 I have to pay the full amount of an upgrade, with no discount... or will I have to pay for CS6 in full for both of these programs?
You will have to pay the full price (not the "full amount of an upgrade," whatever that means).
If you elect to upgrade to CS5.5 prior to Dec. 31 of this year, however, then then you can pay the discounted upgrade price to upgrade to CS5.5 (well, CS5 since Photoshop CS5.5 doesn't exist), and then you can pay the CS6 upgrade price in March/April. So you can pay for no upgrades (full price) or two upgrades (one of which is 20% off).
At the moment I can upgrade CS2, photoshop and Illustrator for €240 each, to CS5. So wouldn't I just be able to do that now and then buy the CS6 upgrade at a much later date perhaps just before CS7 comes out?
Yes, you can do that.
If CS6 has the tools to basically go "File>Export>Epub" and I get a fully working epub file without having to trash about in code afterwards or make complex tagging in InDesign, then I'll be buying it.
It looks like EPUB is evolving pretty fast, so even if ID CS6 fully supports what you want out of EPUB on Day 1, I bet you'll need to be prepared to postprocess it on Day 2. Or at least long before Day 200.

CS7... or CS6.5?
I don't have any links, but I remember a past discussion where the Adobe CEO said they would be going to an annual release cycle... with a .5 (paid) upgrade between the major version upgrades
If that is still true, that means that what will come out this year will be CS6.5

Conflict between Adobe Acrobat and Adobe Reader and how I fixed it

For the past 5 years, I have owned Adobe Acrobat version 9, and recently installed Adobe Reader as well (version 10.7). I was previously able to set up Firefox to use Acrobat to display PDF files in the browser without downloading them, but I recently noticed that this was no longer the case. Instead, every PDF file I tried to view was being downloaded instead. I came here to find a solution, and discovered that many other people are having similar problems. I followed the instructions given here (https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/kb/view-pdf-files-firefox-without-downloading-them), but found that they were actually UNhelpful. They tell you to turn off the Firefox PDF viewer by editing about:config to disable the file pdfs.js, which is the native Firefox PDF viewer-- but that will cause the PDF file type to disappear from the Tools/Options dialog, so you can't assign it to another program (whether Adobe or anything else). This makes it impossible to assign the Adobe plugin to open PDF files. I did figure out a solution on my own, and wanted to post it here to help other users with the same problem.
I ultimately learned, through trial and error and a lot of research both here and on Adobe's website, that the root cause of my problem was a conflict in Firefox between Acrobat and Reader. I was able to solve it by upgrading Acrobat, getting rid of Reader and enabling the Firefox PDF viewer so that I could assign the PDF file type to the Acrobat plugin within Firefox. Here are the details of my problem and how I solved it:
1. Acrobat and Reader conflict with each other in Firefox, but this isn't totally Firefox's fault. It's mostly Adobe's fault, and they pretty much admit it. Specifically, they say that Acrobat and Reader can't coexist on the same machine unless both are version 10 or higher. They tell you to upgrade to solve the problem--but I can't afford to pay for a new version of Acrobat. If you have to keep Acrobat 9.x, Adobe says the lowest version of Reader that will work with it is Reader 11. I couldn't upgrade to this because I have Vista, and Adobe hasn't issued Reader 11 for Vista (and doesn't plan to). I did cheat and download the Win 7 version of Reader 11, but it didn't help.
2. If you have both Acrobat and Reader, you can choose a setting in Reader to make it the default PDF handler--but Firefox ignores this information and defaults to Acrobat no matter what. (This is the part we can blame Firefox for.) If you have a version of Acrobat which is below 9.5.5, Firefox actually blocks it as a security risk, so the plugin won't work at all, regardless of version number. That's why PDFs are being downloaded through your standalone program instead of being displayed in the browser. If you want to view PDFs in Firefox and keep Acrobat on your computer, you MUST upgrade Acrobat to version 9.5.5 or above.
3. Unless you can upgrade Acrobat to at least 10.x, GET RID OF READER. As long as you can access Acrobat 9.5.5, it will work fine in Firefox and there's no need for Reader. I never used to have Reader myself, only Acrobat, but it must have been downloaded automatically when Acrobat was blocked by Firefox (which I didn't even realize).
4. IF YOU NEED TO UPGRADE ACROBAT 9.X TO 9.5.5, YOUR LAST CHANCE IS TODAY--6/26/13. Adobe has announced that today is the "end of life" for the Acrobat 9.x platform, and all support and upgrades will cease after today.
When I searched for updates by going to Adobe's website, it told me there were none available--but when I checked for them FROM THE ACROBAT PROGRAM ITSELF (Help/Check for updates), I was offered a 300 MB upgrade that took me all the way from version 9.0 to 9.5.5 in one step. (It did take a very long time to download and install.)
5. Once you have Acrobat 9.5.5, this is how to enable it in Firefox:
a. INSIDE ACROBAT, set your preference for "Internet" to "view PDF files in browser." Close Acrobat. Close Firefox if it's already open.
b. Reopen Firefox. Check Tools/Add-Ons/Plugins to make sure the Acrobat plugin is there. Enable it if disabled. Close Firefox.
If the plugin isn't there at all, repair your Acrobat installation through Control Panel. Then return to Firefox and enable it. Close Firefox.
c. Reopen Firefox again. Go to Tools/Options and check the list of file types. For the names that contain "Adobe" and "Acrobat," Acrobat should be set as the default program to open them. Select it from the drop-down list if it's not. Continue to scroll through the alphabetical list--you should see another entry called Portable Document Format. If it's there, the default will be "preview in Firefox." You should be able to change this to "Acrobat (in Firefox)" using the drop-down menu. Do NOT pick the option that says "Acrobat"--this is the standalone program and will cause your PDFs to be downloaded.
If you don't see "Acrobat (in Firefox)" as an option, this means your plugin is not working. Go back and fix it using the instructions above (including repair of Acrobat if necessary).
d. If you don't see a file type for "Portable Document Format" at all, that means the Firefox PDF viewer is disabled. You must enable it by editing the about:config file. To see it, type about:config in the Firefox address bar. You will get a warning message--just click OK and keep going.
This file is a long list of statements in alphabetical order. LOOK FOR A STATEMENT THAT SAYS "pdfjs.disabled" with a Boolean value of "true." Select this statement and right-click. A context menu will offer you choices including "Toggle." Select that one, which will change the Boolean value to "false." Exit about:config. Close Firefox.
e. Now return to Tools/Options, scroll through the list of file types, and you should see "Portable Document Format." Select "Acrobat (in Firefox)" as in the instructions above. Close Firefox.
f. The first time you try to open a PDF file in Firefox, you may get a dialog box which offers you choices of how to open the file. The first will be Acrobat, but DON'T CHOOSE THAT--it will cause your PDF to download. Instead, go to the choice that says "Open as application/pdf." You don't need to change the program that opens this file type, because your settings are already correct. Your PDF should open in the browser, with the full-featured Acrobat menu (including the option of editing or saving the file).
I hope other users can benefit from the truly painful experience I had figuring all of this out. Good luck.

ID CS4 and Adobe Digital Editions

One reason I purchased ID CS4 was for the ability to create ebooks using ADE. However, my first attempt to export to ADE has been far from successful.
The project is a 152-page book. It was "created" in ID CS4 and is straight text except for the publisher's logo, which appears on the title page. Each chapter is its own file, as is each element of the front matter. Three fonts are used in the publication: Arial, Formata, and Palatino. The Formata and Palatino fonts are OT fonts; they were newly purchased as OT fonts for this client. Each use of italic or bold in the book's text, excluding heads, is by a character style that includes the font family name. For example, if the text is supposed to be Palatino Italic, the character style includes both bits of information, a generic Italic is not used.
I combined all of the elements of the project into a single ID Book, which is what I used to update numbering, etc. When I export to PDF from the Book, everything works fine. When I export to Adobe Digital Editions from the Book, the following occurs:
1. Arial and Palatino are embedded but Formata is not.
2. The first and last files of the Book (i.e., the title page and the References) appear in the ePub file and are viewable in the ADE viewer, but everything between those two files, including all of the text chapters, are empty files that appear as blank pages in the ADE viewer.
What am I doing wrong? How do I
a. Get Formata embedded?
b. Get the complete project into an ePub file?
Another thought: Would the way to do this be to do each chapter as a separate export to ADE and then combine each of the separate files into a single ePub file? If so, how would one do this? I've noted that when creating an ePub file several additional informational files are created. It isn't clear to me how one would combine that information.
Also, is there a good source and/or book (or several sources and/or books) that gives step-by-step instruction information on turning a project into an ePub file? Although this project has no graphics, tables, etc., future projects will have numerous graphics, tables, etc. and so any help will be appreciated.
Thanks.

You're not actually doing anything wrong. You're experiencing a bug. Hopefully it will be fixed in an upcoming update to InDesign CS4.
The cause of the problem comes down to the spaces in the name of the font you've used in your document (i.e. Myriad Pro Bold). If an embedded font contains spaces in its name, it won't be used and Adobe Digital Editions will use its default font instead. The problem can be overcome by directly editing the EPUB file. I use Oxygen to open up the EPUB file directly, but you can also change the .epub file extension to .zip and then unarchive the package to gain access to the various files within it. Once you've opened the EPUB file, you need to modify three things: the template.css file, encryption.xml file, and the font files.
Template.css
At the top of the CSS file, you'll see font face declarations for each font you've used in your document. If your font(s) has spaces in its name, you'll notice that a %20 has replaced the space. Change each instance of the %20 to a hyphen. Here's an example:
@font-face {
font-family: Myriad Pro;
font-style: normal;
font-weight: bold;
src:url(Fonts/MyriadPro%20Bold.otf);
Change to:
@font-face {
font-family: Myriad Pro;
font-style: normal;
font-weight: bold;
src:url(Fonts/MyriadPro-Bold.otf);
Encryption.xml
For each type style you've used in your document, there will be a <enc:CipherData> element. If your font(s) has spaces in its name, you'll notice that a %20 has replaced the space here as well. Change each instance of the %20 to a hyphen. Here's an example:
<enc:CipherData>
<enc:CipherReference URI="OEBPS/Fonts/MyriadPro%20Regular.otf"/>
</enc:CipherData>
Change to:
<enc:CipherData>
<enc:CipherReference URI="OEBPS/Fonts/MyriadPro-Regular.otf"/>
</enc:CipherData>
Font Files:
Within the EPUB package is a folder called "Fonts," where all the embedded fonts reside. You need to rename the files by replacing the spaces with hyphens.
That's all there is to it. After editing and saving the files, you'll have to rearchive the package and change the .zip extension back to .epub. If you use Oxygen to edit the package, there is no rearchiving necessary. You can also use the free PDFXML Inspector, but I definitely prefer Oxygen since it provides many more tools and its not so clunky.

With OSX10.7.5 and Adobe Reader 11.0.02 when I try to open a PDF downloaded from the web I get 'There was an error opening this document. This file is damaged and could not be repaired. Preview will not open either. Older PDFs OK.

I am running OS X 10.7.5 and Adobe Reader 11.0.02. In the last few days I have been unable to open PDF's downloaded from the web. Reader gives the error message 'There was an error opening this document. The file is damaged and could not be repaired'. Removing Reader and trying to use Preview to open these files give the error 'Preview cannot open this file. It may be damaged or use a file format that Preview doesn't recognise' (or something like that). Downloading the same files with Reader removed from my Mac Preview opens the files OK.
I was recently prompted to update Adobe software but did not note exactly what the update was nor when it was done.
Reader and Preview will both open PDFs I downloaded a week ago. Reader will also open files downloaded on another Mac running OS X 10.0.0 and copied to my Mac. Any ideas?

Back up all data.
Triple-click the line of text below to select it, the copy the selected text to the Clipboard (command-C):
/Library/Internet Plug-ins
In the Finder, select
Go ▹ Go to Folder
from the menu bar, or press the key combination shift-command-G. Paste into the text box that opens (command-V), then press return.
From the folder that opens, remove any items that have the letters “PDF” in the name. You may be prompted for your login password. Then quit and relaunch Safari, and test.
The "Silverlight" web plugin distributed by Microsoft can also interfere with PDF display in Safari, so you may need to remove it as well, if it's present.
If you still have the issue, repeat with this line:
~/Library/Internet Plug-ins
If you don’t like the results of this procedure, restore the items from the backup you made before you started. Relaunch Safari again.

Extension Manager will not open and Adobe doesn't care

Just search on “extension manager will not open” in the Adobe Forums or Google and pages of hits come up going back to CS4. This is a serious problem that Adobe is simply ignoring.
I have Windows 7 Professional 64-bit with Design Premium CS5 installed. Nothing happens when I click on Manage Extensions from within any Adobe application, nothing happens when I click on Adobe Extension Manager CS5 on the start menu, and nothing happens when I double click on a .mxp file. No error messages – nothing.
So I had a free couple of hours and decided to call Adobe. Six hours later, after talking with Raj, Peenal, Tushar, Madhur, and Sandeep (get the picture?), after noting that none of them had ever even heard of the problem, after my call was dropped during one 30 minute wait, and after a complete uninstall and reinstall of the complete CS5, I have exactly the same problem I started with.
For my purposes, Design Premium CS5 is literally useless without extensions and Adobe has left me holding a $1500 boat anchor. Do you think anybody at Adobe cares? I don’t.
Bottom line - DO NOT BUY Design Premium CS5 if you need extensions. They very possibly will not install and Adobe won't/can't help you.

Thanks to Carl Sun and Zhiqianq Liu, my problem with Extension Manager is resolved (the problem with Adobe support is not).
I followed Carl's Sun's instructions to the letter. I created a ExManLog.YES file and then manually ran Adobe Extension Manager CS5.exe via "Run as administrator" as Carl suggested and the Extension Manager ran for the first time.
In other words, either creating the ExManLog.YES file (unlikely) or manually running the .exe file as administrator (most certainly the solution) solved the problem.
Running, rerunning, rebooting and rerunning all work now – all without right clicking on Adobe Extension Manager CS5.exe before running Extension Manager. That is, it was apparently sufficient to right click on Adobe Extension Manager CS5.exe and then run the Extension Manager as administrator one time.
Now what's diabolical about this is that my user has full administrator privileges. Still, Extension Manager wasn’t actually running as administrator until I physically located the .exe file and manually ran it as administrator one time.
And what’s doubly diabolical is that all those guys at Adobe didn’t have a clue and Carl and Zhiqianq solved it right away.
Thank you, thank you.
Now – Adobe – if you are reading this, five of you guys caused me six hours of untold grief (case # 182188172) when the solution was actually very simple. I won’t be forgetting that anytime soon and I hope others who read this will get the message that Adobe support is seriously dysfunctional.

Preview and Adobe fonts problem/missing in PDF

I have a PDF document that doesn't show some fonts. The PDF was displaying fine on preview and then all of the sudden the next day it got messed up. I didn't performed any update or installed any new app. The problem persists in both Preview app and Adobe Reader; at least Adobe tells me: "Cannot find or create the font 'BYGBIR+Helvetica-12-0'. Some characters may not display or print correctly." Here's a screen shot of what it looks like.

L Huffman,
First of all, Welcome to the Discussions!
Try to select one of files in question by clicking once and then press the key combo command + i or go to the File menu and select Get Info.
Once the Get Info pane is open drop down (if not already in the open position) the disclosure triangle next to "Open with:" and change the application that will open "this" file. To change all files of the type make sure to click on the "Change All" button.
That should do it....post back if that is not what you are trying to do.

I have Windows XP and Adobe 9 Reader and need to send a series of large documents to clients as a matter of urgency When I convert 10 pages a MS-Word file to Pdf this results in file of 6.7 MB which can't be emailed. Do I combine them and then copy to JPEG 2000 or do I have to save each page separately which is very time consuming Please advise me how to reduce the size and send 10 pages plus quickly by Adobe without the huge hassles I am enduring

What kind of software do you use for the conversion to pdf? Adobe Reader can't create pdf files.

I have Adobe Photoshop Elements 10 and Adobe Premier 10 loaded on a Dell PC. Do I need to uninstall from the Dell before I install on a recently purchased Apple Mac Pro? There are separate disks for Mac and PC in the package.

Generally, it's ok to install on two machines as long as they are both yours and you only use one version at a time.
BTW, this is the forum for Adobe Contribute.

I would like to start anew as the pc, and Adobe teaching tools, have sat idle until today.

I know absolutely nothing about how to use Adobe Software, and I really need to scratch all and start over. Is it possible for me to give a short explanation of what I am seeking to accomplish? Only Adobe services, tech, etc could evaluate what I need to reach my goals.
In mid October I had sought specific learning tools offered by Adobe, or somewhat specific. I was really blown away by the presenting of several online classes, testing, and various teaching venues in order for me to whittle down to where Adobe as well as myself, could be much more affiliated with the programs offered, as opposed to just buying products blindly, that could prove to be worth spending money on.
So what I would like to do is for Adobe to help lead me to creative tools you offer.
My goal: To be able to create a customer friendly presentation that would be interactive on some levels, such as graphics integrated with photos, DVDs with products I am looking to sell that is a few steps above the hit & miss methods on, say, Windows Live Movie Maker (which I did create a DVD with a slide show with descriptions, photos of products and with music with a legth of 47 min.). So I'm not denegrationg Movie Maker by any means. I just feel I need software that would be solid with convenient usefulness.
A little insight: I have been an avid collector of music memorabilia, rare products I sought for near 40 years. I owned two Record Stores in the 80s through to 2000 when I was forced to close my doors due to health problems that were too much for the capacity to manage, and be hands on. I have some products that I would like to offer to other collectors, rather than casually consigning an item to some auction site with limitations on the presentation and customer base. In the mail order department of my stores, I accumulated mailing lists of near 5k music collectors. I have those former customers and I have ideas of what I need in order to market my product in a way that wows (for lack of a better word) potential buyers.
I have done my own research and Adobe's reputation of excellent service and incomparable software capacity, is above all others with for the most part fair in pricing.
If Adobe can help with the means discussed above, I want to learn, if I can, all I need to learn! Please let me know your ideas along with any questions.Email or call 4782547562 12pm-7pm anyday of the week. Thanks for allowing me to ramble on. Ricky McDermon.

HI,
I'm not quite sure who you think you are addressing here with your idea but this is a user to user forum. Apple don't come here.
If you want to offer ideas or feedback to Apple, it would be best for you to do it here:
