No local help files for Photoshop CS6 extended

Hi
I wish to use local help files for Photoshop CS6 but only online support is available. Local files are not listed under the Adobe Help preferences. The option to search only local rather than online help is greyed out. I found and downloaded a PDF with of the help files but don't know where to install it or if this is possible. I have CS 5 Creative Suite and this works fine giving the option of local or online help when accessed.
Is there a way to install and use local help files in photoshop CS6?
Thank you.

Hi and thanks for directing me to that article, it should have done the trick. I am using mac mountain lion 10.8.5.
The help system has always operated oddly - I have Photoshop cs6 but also the cs5 master suite installed. CS5 works fine but Photoshop cs6 only gives the option for online help and then directs me to the CC site. There is no simple listing for just Photoshop help in the help menu - presumably as it is not seeing it installed
I tried various configurations in the article, having to set up the folders they suggested. In my case, in a variety of alternative places as I have a boot up volume with the documents folder moved onto a RAID array so the Shared folder is not in the documents folder but in Users on the boot drive. So - confusing - but tried all the likely candidates and folder configurations/locations while following the instructions as closely as possible. Even tried an documents folder alias to redirect the program to the alternative path way.
At least now I have the PDFs and can look through them outside the adobe interface. The problem with the community site being questions regarding photoshop alone, yield answers for all sort of other issues and programs.
Thanks for your help though, which should have worked, appreciated.

Possibility to execute Acrobat Pro's "Combine files into PDF" function from within SAP?

Good day.
Presently, a company uses Acrobat Pro to manually combine files such as *.pdf, *.jpg, *.doc, which have been downloaded from SAP's Document Management System, into one pdf file. I would like to know if it is possible to automatically execute Acrobat Pro's "Combine files into PDF" function from within SAP (ECC 6.0) application system. I'm wondering if this could be achieved from a program via OLE (Object Linking and Embedding) or RFC (remote function call).
Thanks in advance for your thoughts and inputs.

Yes, you can combine PDF files via IAC/COM methods.

Acrobat Pro XI portfolio file sequence

How do I maintain the Acrobat Pro XI portfolio file sequence when I convert it to a single PDF?

Unfortunately there isn't a way to control this during the extraction process. If you open the portfolio in the Combine Files dialog though, at least you'll be able to visually rearrange the files.

Acrobat Reader 9 help file as pdf

Hello AKA_TG,
There are manuals installed on your PC. You can find them at
C:\Program Files\National Instruments\LabVIEW 2010\manuals
Hope this helps.
But of course these do not include anything like a complete set of manuals like in the 'old' days'. The only included manuals of much help to a beginner are the getting started and quick reference manuals.
AKA_TG,
If you want a hardcopy, your only real option is to do a print of the LabVIEW Help. I have not done a print in a long while. What I tend to do is look at the release and upgrade notes to see what has changed and then look it up in the Help. I'll also open any new examples with Context Help turned on.

Problems with opening Acrobat Pro 9 PDF files

Hi. We use Acrobat Pro 9.0.0 to convert our product documentation Word files into PDFs. During the last weeks our customers report more and more problems with opening these files. We usually deliver those on a DVD with Acrobat Reader 5 or another older version. (Please don't ask me why we're still on these old versions!) Did anyone experience similar problems with Acrobat Pro 9 PDF files and older versions of the Acrobat Reader? Does Acrobat Pro 9.0.0 work smoothly with the newest Acrobat Reader 9.1 download?
Please post your comments. Thx a lot - Kay

I would recommend distributing higher version of Reader as version 5 is just too old but looks like you can't go there.
Acrobat 9 PDFMaker and Adobe PDF printers by default create PDF 1.5 compaible files. PDF 1.5 compatible files can be opened only in Acrobat 6 and above. That's probably the reason why your customers can't see the contents.
What you can do is to change your conversion settings to produce PDF 1.4 compatible files:
- In Word, select Acrobat tab or Adobe PDF menu (depending on your version of Word), select Settings
- Select "advanced settings" in the dialog that comes up
- Choose compatibility as "Acrobat 5", PDF 1.4
IF you print to Adobe PDF printer, you'll find a similar setting in the print dialog.

CS4 - no longer local help files???

I recently upgraded to CS4, and it seems that when I try to access the help system it goes off to a web site instead of using local help files on my hard disk. This is extremely annoying because:
1. I often work on airplanes and other places where Internet access is just plain not available.
2. Accessing remote servers over the Internet is painfully slow. I feel like I'm waiting for paint to dry when I access help.
Is there a way to get CS4 to put its help system on my local hard disk?

Be advised that the following will also disable other online apps such as Kuler.
To disable access to online services using the Connections panel:
Open your Adobe CS4 application.
Choose Window > Extensions > Connections. This will open the Connections panel.
Click the Connections panel menu flyout and then choose Offline Options.
Select Keep Me Offline.
Click OK.

CS5 - Local Help Files missing

While I was without internet recently, I was unable to browse local help files for Photoshop and Flash Catalyst in my new copy of Creative Suite 5
- Design premium.
I wa prompted to set preferences to browse offline help, and that did not working. Poking around in the actual folders showed me there were missing help files!
Also, the help files I did have all had the word "DRAF" in red at the top! Pretty poor quality control!
Where can I get the updated help files?

i too have the same problem for my cs5 master collection.
there are no help files
the error says to reinstall the whole software.
i tried reinstalling but the help files are still not there
pls help

CS5 local help files

I understand how the Community help application can download local help files but I'm on dial-up at home and the Photoshop local help file, for example, shows as over 27 MB. The PDF version here: http://help.adobe.com/en_US/photoshop/cs/using/index.html is 40 MB. I have access to a broadband connection away from home and could download to a flash drive. Questions: are local help files available for manual download? If so, where and how? Once downloaded, where would they be stored in a typical Windows installation so that they'd be available when I choose Help and choose the local help option? Or, put another way, where does the Adobe Help application store them once downloaded and decompressed?

I think I found the answer for you:
http://kb2.adobe.com/cps/849/cpsid_84992.html
In short, help files are stored here:
Windows:
%appdata%\chc.4875E02D9FB21EE389F73B8D1702B320485DF8CE.1\Local Store\
Mac OS:
[user name]/Library/Preferences/chc.4875E02D9FB21EE389F73B8D1702B320485DF8CE.1/Local Store/
Can't say I've tried what you're trying, but I was looking for the location of the downloaded help (because I prefer to view it in my browser) and found your question in my searching.
Hope that helps.

How to install local help files

I'm trying to install local help files for Papervision API so, when I click on for example a class name, there is a link to the documentation in the dynamic help. Does anybody know?

Hi,
When you run for first time, appear a screen in which say:
Do you want to install this software ?
Internet Security Warning
Name: Portal Tools for Real-time Collaboration
Publisher: SAP AG
Two buttons: Install Don't Install
This screen appears depending on your browser setting.
Have you tried in other machine ?
Have you configured application sharing ServerName in portal ?

How to use online help instead of local help files?

I know that if I am looking for help in Adobe Acrobat Pro 9, I can hit F1 or go to Help -> Adobe Acrobat 9 Pro Help...
However, I do not like that doing that sends me to the limited help files that are stored on my local drive. I would like that link to default to the online help.
Is there any way to do that?
The real reason I want to do this is because I use Mozilla Firefox and tightly control the cookies that sites save on my computer. For sites that I trust, I simply add them to the whitelist. However, I am unable to add file:///C:etc.etc. to my whitelist, so I have to approve 5-8 cookies every time I go to another page within the help files. This is extremely annoying.
In regards to this local help default over internet help, Adobe has said:
The Help menu within the product opens local Help, a subset of the content available in online product Help. Because local Help is not as complete or up-to-date as online product Help, Adobe recommends that you use the PDF version of product Help if you want to stay off-line.
But what if I don't want to use the "subset of the content available in online product Help" and prefer to simply go to the online product Help just like every other Adobe CS4 product?

You could add a custom menu item to the Help menu that executes the following line of code:
// Acrobat 9 Pro Help
app.launchURL("http://help.adobe.com/en_US/acrobat/pro/using/index.html");
See this tutorial for more information: http://acrobatusers.com/tutorials/2006/add_custom_menu_items

Acrobat Pro 9: "Merge files into a single pdf" creates blank pages

I have a similar problem as a previous post (which hasn't been answered).
I am able to pdf individual Word documents fine, but when I try to Combine > Merge files into a single pdf, the resulting pdf pages are all blank. I don't receive any error messages or have problems saving the file.
I am using Adobe Acrobat Pro 9 (9.5.1) on Windows 7.
The merging of pdf's hasn't worked at all since I installed the program.
Any help would be much appreciated.

Hi Bill
Thanks so very much - you have solved the problem.
I tried Document > Insert Pages and that worked.
I then ran the "Repair" feature on Adobe which installed a few updates and I am now also able to merge pdf's by using the "Combine" feature and all the pages show the text/info.
Thanks again for your help, it is very much appreciated.
Thank you also to Apoorv for your assistance.
