Adobe cloud-a shot in the foot no question/issue to resolve - kglad

I have been a user of Photoshop since CS2. I have purchased Adobe's over priced software over and over again. At one time, there was no other solution. Times have changed and Adobe needs to get involved with changing times. This transition to the "cloud" is in my opinion a ridiculous move and Adobe has shot themselves in the foot . When I buy any  piece of software, I learn it and use it and make the decision if and when I want to purchase full revision upgrades, based on what Adobe or the author offers as an upgrade.  Kind of like buying a car. I imagine this cloud move is to thwart piracy. However, there are many other pieces of software out there now  that are well under $100. Like OnOne Perfect Photo Suite, Corel Paintshop Pro,  Photoshop Elements, Gimp (totally free), and many others. If Adobe would stop trying to sell their single Million Dollar glass of lemonade, and instead sell a million glasses at $1.00, we would all be happy; no piracy, everyone could afford software.
Please Adobe, rethink this strategy and lower the cost of your software and you would simply sell more. Just like the lemonade .
Make Photoshop CS6 $99.95 , skip the cloud, and the sales will come.

I wouldn't think the graphic card would be out of date as it was part of the 2/22/13 PC purchase, however I don't know how to verify it using Windows 7 to be sure if it is or isn't. If it was the graphic's card, wouldn't the other programs, such as Adobe Photoshop Elements 11, the MS Office Suite Programs, etc., on the PC also 'track'?.

    Creative Cloud gives you access to 17 products which you download and install on your computer (just like before).  The main difference is that Cloud subscribers receive software updates as soon as they are available.  Perpetual License users don't get updates until they upgrade their products.  You must be connected to the internet once per month to verify your Cloud membership.  Other than that, Cloud software is identical to perpetual licensed software.
    Creative Cloud also gives you remote access to your own Cloud space for storing images, media and other files (currently 20 GB).
    I'm a Cloud user and I'm finding it very convenient.

  • Adobe Cloud app manager failed to download.

    I just subscribed to adobe cloud. I followed the instructions to downlooad the cloud manager; but i got a message stating download failed and retry, which i did to no success. I am on a new imac using mavericks. How do i get back to the download screen to try and download again. As of now I have no way of downloading any of the cloud apps.

    Jp67 you will want to initiate the download trough the Creative Cloud Desktop application.  You can find more details at Install and update apps - https://helpx.adobe.com/creative-cloud/help/install-apps.html.
    Also if you continue to face download errors please try an alternate Internet connection.  If you are on a wireless connection try a wired connection.  If you are on a wired connection try a different cable or a different source for Internet access.

  • My adobe cloud will not open, how do I fix this?

    I have tied to repair, uninstall and reinstall.  The most I have gotten is the window for the cloud to open showing the program is there but it does not open at all.
    How do I fix this on windows 7?

    no the Adobe cloud window opens..the links for the programs dont work on the Cloud screen.  Its never happened before.  I did find the program and after uninstalling and reinstalling it will come up in programs.  But why it crashed fist of all and then why I had nothing at first, then the cloud window, then the program would go no further.  All the other links work on my desktop. Just not the Adobe.

  • 10.9.4 adobe cloud and flash player issue

    Ok i updated to OS 10.9.4 on july the 16th,
    first website i visited said i needed to update adobe flash player which i tried to do and it failed
    so i followed adobes instructions to do a clean install. The only problem was it would not install the current or any other version
    leaving me without a flashplayer.
    Next i have adobe cloud installed with all the apps this week i noticed they needed updated so i went to update all the apps i have installed guess what,
    they will not install since the 10.9.4 update as well, so i tried to install a new app same problem as the flash installer it will not install.
    i have been to adobes forums none of there fixes work and all this happened from the 10.9.4 update which is really frustrating as i use this mac
    for web design, needing flash player and adobe apps to install and work.
    any help would be appriciated

  • Cannot update Adobe Cloud software:  need admin privledges

    Installation of Adobe cloud software fails.  The updater requests my user password but will not accept it.

    The error in the log is as follows:

    After this error the whole install begins a cascade failure.
    Bill@VT has the correct troubleshooting procedure though.  Download the update and try updating locally rather than through the ARM updater.

  • Managing a corporate Adobe Cloud subscription! Is this possible?

    I own a multimedia company and would like to get a Adobe Cloud subscription for the rest of the team.
    I need a bunch of licences but the Adobe cloud seems to treat the subscription as a personal license. Is there a corporate version or a multiple seat version of Adobe Cloud?
    Thanks you

    Two options to look at depending on the size of your team.
    One is to have the individual end users sign up for Creative Cloud directly to get started.
    The second is to look into the Creative Cloud Team Ready offering, an interim solution for organizations excited by the prospect
    of Creative Cloud who want to get started and have an onramp to the team offering when it becomes available later this year.
    The Creative Cloud Team Ready offering is available for purchase in the reseller channel, and includes access to the CS6 Master Collection products along with
    new products such as Adobe Muse, Adobe Edge, and Photoshop Lightroom as they are released for licensing customers.
    Hope this helps!

  • Adobe cloud has lost connection with the server

    Adobe cloud has lost connection with the server, can't get adobe cloud to work so I can re-install photoshop to fix a corrupted DLL file.

    *Adding new items/removing orphans*
    Try iTunes Folder Watch or iTunes Library Updater. Folder Watch is much faster on the adding files front, can be set to run in the background and includes a useful exclusion feature, however it’s slow at removing orphans. iTLU is better for this although doing it manually after looking at a list of proposed removals generated by Folder Watch is probably faster still. iTLU can also be set to update iTunes when you've used 3rd party tools to change tag info.
    You may need to amend the list of file types these programs look for. My list includes:
    .mp3 .mp4 .m4a .m4b .m4p .m4v .mov .wav .aif .mid .ipa .ipg .ite .itlp .m4r .pdf
    Note the last 6 types may not be recognised as already being in the library so should either be omitted from the search or you can add (at least for Folder Watch) individual exclusions for files you know are already in your library.

  • I have the adobe cloud 9.99/ month photography package i downloaded lightroom 5.4, it told me it was a trial version, and i'm now at the end of the trial and it won't let me download the full version and i don't have a serial number

    i have the adobe cloud 9.99/ month photography package i downloaded lightroom 5.4, it told me it was a trial version, and i'm now at the end of the trial and it won't let me download the full version and i don't have a serial number. also, when i click buy, i get an error message saying, "application not found."

    There are two different LR’s, one with a serial-number licensing and one with a CC-signin license.
    You should uninstall the serial-number LR you have installed, then
    Quit the CC Desktop application,
    Restart the CC Desktop application—this will rescan what you have installed and not see LR,
    LR will now be on the CC Desktiop apps list, so install that.
