Adobe Don't Want New Phototoshop CS 4 Back

I purchased Photoshop CS 4 (never installed) and then got a copy for Christmas. I called Adobe and told them what happened and they refunded my money. I asked them how to ship it back, they said they didn't want it back.  How is this possable.

Yupp, as dec said. Since all Adobe apps use electronic activation, it's easier to just invalidate the serial on the server. It's also safer for them - after all, you could send them a forged package without knowing it or the package get lost in the mail and nothing would be achieved.

  • Don't want new tiff files saved in my catologue if I'm only using the image for a composite.

    When editing in Photoshop CS4 from LR3, the new tif will not appear in the catalogue unless I save it in PS. In LR4 it saves a new tiff in my catalogue regardless if I save the edited image in PS or not. I have a cloud library I use often and do not want new files saved in my LR catologue if I'm only using the opened image for compositing. Can anyone help me figure out how to change the workflow to be like LR3?

    i think adobe should support new cameras for older CS versions too.
    in the end PS is expensive enough to justifie a better support.
    How far back would you go? One version? Three? Where should the line be drawn? Adobe draws the line at the currently shipping version...it's now CS5 and shortly it will be CS6.
    Even if Adobe were to do this, you do realize that trying to put new plug-ins into older software is really tough. For example on the Mac, Photoshop CS5 requires that the plug-in be written in Apple's Cocoa API. Camera Raw 5 required a major update to be able to run in Cocoa...retrofitting Camera Raw 5 to run in a PPC platform (supported by CS3/CS4 but not supported by CS5) would be difficult–a lot of work for zero return. As a result of the engineering challenges of backwards compatibility Adobe has the policy of only updating currently shipping software to current customers. Truth be told, if you don't have the most recent version, you are not a current customer...you are a former customer. Having Adobe spend R&D engineering backwards compatibility to support former customers would take resources away from supporting current customers. As a current customer, I wouldn't like that.
    But it's all a moot point because I don't see any evidence that Adobe is going to change this policy for backwards compatibility. In fact, going forward, Adobe is already announced the change to Photoshop upgrade rules allowing only the most recent version to be upgraded to the new version. Because of the reaction that only CS5/5.5 could upgrade to CS6, Adobe blinked and now has given a grace period till the end of 2012 for CS3 & CS4 users to upgrade to CS6.
    Again many people don't like this, but as a pro user of Photoshop, I always upgrade anyway so it has no impact on me. Yes, it will bite some people and I can have sympathy, but again, you always have the free DNG Converter to use in the case you need new camera support. And hey, the new cameras come with software to process their raw files, right?

  • How can I stop iOS from opening a recently received message when I click on the messages app to compose an unrelated message to a different contact? I want to read it later, when I have time to reply, and I don't want to forget to go back to it.

    iPhone messages automatically open when I don't want them to
    One of my first ever flip phones had a wonderful function where you could choose a checkbox next to received messages to make them appear read or unread. This was very convenient for messages which you read, but don't have time to reply to immediately, and want to remember to come back to later.
    In contrast, the latest, greatest iPhone not only does not have this rudimentary message management function, but it goes one step further in the wrong direction. If there is just one received, unread message, and you click on the messages icon, the new message will automatically be opened. It is opened irrespective of whether you have time to read it right away, irrespective of if you simply wanted to compose a new message or go back to another already read message. It just opens the new one, and then you are in a position where you have to read it and respond to it right there, or risk forgetting about it and failing to reply to it altogether. I sometimes receive a lot of messages over a period of a few hours, so it is very easy to lose track of these half-read messages in the mayhem. I have missed countless messages because of this problem. Incidentally, if there is more than one received message, then the application doesn't automatically open any of them, which is much better, because you can at least choose when you want to open one of the unread messages. But ideally, you should be able to go through your list of received messages and check or uncheck them as read or unread at any time, so that you can easily find messages that still need to be replied to, or reconsidered.
    Does anybody have a solution to this problem? It strikes me as a simple data management solution that should be, but is not an option in the basic functionality of the app. Frustrating!

    Is this an IMAP account?
    If so, delete the messages in Mail from all folders and quit Mail.
    Go the the website and clear the messages from all folders there.
    Reopen Mail and verify the messages have been deleted for all folders.

  • Mac Pro 2013 and Premiere Pro - The performance issue that Adobe don't want us talking about!

    In May 2014 I bought a 2013 Mac Pro to help my business with the ever increasing demands video editing was placing on our systems.  I was so excited to see how the 12GB of power the AMD D700s would affect my workflow and ability to edit footage seamlessly without delays to the creative process.
    However, to my dismay pretty much since starting to work with the system I found that there was an issue with the GPUs, Mac OS and Adobe’s applications.  It was first reported by many other users in early 2014 and as yet know one from Adobe has really commented officially on the issue.
    Sadly it appears to still be present today and speaking with an Adobe rep confirmed this.  Trouble is no one is doing anything about it.  My hope is that, if you have watched this video and are experiencing the same issues then please let’s get the comments going, share and like the video and let’s get Adobe, Apple and AMD to pick up this with immediate haste! Thank you.
    Below is a video of the problem I have been experiencing.  It's a little long but I wanted to give a good account of the problem we are seeing so that someone can help! PLEASE, PLEASE, PLEASE help!
    Mac Pro 2013 and Premiere Pro GPU Issue - YouTube
    Thank you for your time and I'd love someone to help!

    Thanks for responding!  It's such a pain and I have been chatting to one of Adobe's senior consultants about this and still none the wiser.  I have sent my machine off to the retailer as it was still under warranty.  Nothing wrong with GPU apparently which is a relief although I kinda wish it had been that as it would have been an easier fix.  Adobe told me that working with H.264 is totally possible but if you have a complex sequence with multicam and nested video with effects applied then it will seriously hinder performance.  Sadly transcoding to ProRes doesn't seem to help either and they suggested not adding any effects to the nested clips, flattening out the multi cams etc and this has improved things a bit.  Sent a sequence to SpeedGrade the other day though and the machine had a fit.  FCPX though seems to be working great and has a few advantages over Premiere so I may be making a switch for this type of work until Adobe can sort out this issue.  I still feel that the application isn't fully making the most of the GPUs.  In fact, I found out that multicam is actually all still on the CPU and that they are trying to implement GPU handling of multicam soon.

  • Adobe don't want my money?

    Trying to upgrade from adobe CS5 to adobe CC,
    Got to the plans, went through all the steps,
    adobe confirmed i was eligible for an upgrade,
    they took my payment details,
    then the final step i get 'Specials Service Unavailable' or something similar to that.
    Now overtime i try to upgrade or i check plans etc,
    all i get is a blank screen at creative.adobe.com/plans.
    Infact i checked on my mobile phone too and i get the same blank screen.
    Is it just me or is adobe down or???
    Very irritated as my trial just ran out and i had work to do tonight but now i can't
    wether i get the upgrade tonight or not because of the time...
    Any ideas?

  • Buyer got the money back from Paypal and buyer don't want to send the item back

    Hi everybody, I sold a laptop on Dec 2014 via eBay. After three months, there are some issues with the laptop so buyer had to send it to the manufacture for repair (Still under Lenovo warranty). After that, buyer had to send the laptop to manufacture again due to motherboard problem (Lenovo agree to fix it for free because it's still under warranty). Buyer complained that the computer is not as described. (I listed the item as like new because it's open box item, I also mentioned open box in the eBay description, I also refunded $100 when the buyer received the laptop, he said there are some scratches on the case, and he accepted the offer, I still have our conversation via eBay message) By the time I sold it, the laptop still under warranty for approximate 2 and a half year. Regarding to eBay policy, buyer cannot file a claim after 30 days, so he decided to file a complain via PayPal. I don't sell much on eBay so after I sold the laptop, I don't check my PayPal email anymore, once day when I check my email, I realized the case has been opened for approximate 19 days, which mean I was late to respond to the case 4 days. PayPal decided to refund to the buyer. I contacted PayPal several time, they said they couldn't do anything because I didn't respond to their email. I contacted Buyer and he told me that he will consider my email as harassment. I sent him another email a couple weeks ago and he didn't respond to my email. As a result, I still have to pay for eBay fee (approximate $50), and I lost the laptop $1300 value. Even he send the laptop back to me at this time, the laptop will not have the same value as before, but I still not receive the laptop anyway. It like 8 months from now. I filed a complain to ic3.gov but I still not hear anything from them. Does anyone have the same experience with me? Do you have any suggest? I have moved from WA to Texas, I don't know if I can file a case in Texas since the original issue happened when I was in WA.  Any response is appreciated, Thank you very much.

    1. Fwd your complaints to Apple, not this forum

  • Don't want to loose time machine back ups after Lion

    Hi All.  When I got my new MBP, I used my time machine backup during instillation to transfer files and settings from my previous MacBook.  Now, my time machine backups only go as far back as when I got my new computer.  All the previous back ups that I had accumulated with my previous MacBook compter were erased.  I just updated my OS to Lion, and I'm wondering if this will happen again when I connect my external hard drive.  Will I loose all my previous backups?  Is there a way to prevent this? thanks. Kelly

    No (unless you erased the HD before installing Lion).  You have the same Mac, and the same HD, so it will do a normal "incremental" backup, of the new and changed items.
    It will be lengthy, of course, since the whole version of OSX is new, so there's a lot to do.

  • How can I transfer new apps from my iphone without replacing apps I don't want?

    When you sync your iPhone you sometimes get the following message:
    Itunes has found purchased items on the iphone thats arenot present in your itunes library.
    There are two reasons for this:
    1. I have deleted apps in iTunes that I don't want, but not on the iPhone. I don't want to transfer the apps back to iTunes because I want them gone.
    2. I have bought apps on the iPhone that I do want to keep. I want these transferred to iTunes.
    So if I have both types 1 and 2 then there is no good answer. Preferably iTunes should offer to sync and choose which apps to transfer and what not to transfer. Is there a way to change this behaviour? By the time I sync I don't know what I've done so I'm usually not sure how to answer the question. Sometimes I like to bulk delete apps in iTunes--it is easier than doing it on the iPhone.
    Thanks in advance.

    "Is there a way to change this behaviour? "
    No.

  • Creative doesn't WANT new drivers.

    Alot of people in here and all over the internet are calling creative's driver team bad and incapable of making working drivers. This is utter nonsense.
    Creative could probably release perfect fully working drivers withing a few weeks at most, that's assuming they don't already have working drivers backed up somewhere. Creative doesn't want perfect or even acceptable drivers for their current soundcards, so the drivers team's hands are tied. Creative wants to release new sound cards advertising, basically, all the problems are solved and you'll have to buy new sound cards for Vista, Creative isn't the only one doing this but they probably are the only one removing old features, through new drivers, making newer sound cards seem more attracti've without really having anything new.
    This isn't the first time Creative has done this. The Audigy 2 and Audigy 4 are basically the same thing, except one costs more because it's drivers allow more features, infact you can get drivers for Audigy 2 cards enabling Audigy 4 features.
    They've been doing this driver "scam" for a long time, it's nothing new to them. They've hardly ever seemed to care about providing value to customers.
    Also I don't see how removing old features is legal, they can't absolve themselves from everything just by stating it in an EULA, an EULA isn't law and in many countries completely or partially useless due to respecti've laws and constitutional rights. Also anything advertised to work with an opperating system, Vista in this case, and doesn't work with it, is false advertising in any country and is ilegal, contacting your local Advertising Standards Association (or equivalent) and making them aware of this could cause many problems for Creative.
    Moaning isn't going to help, where you spend your money and what actions you take will determine the difference.

    They don't want new fully working drivers for older cards because then people wouldn't buy newer cards that didn't have crippled drivers. Well, at least until the next time around anyway.
    Since Creative's U.S. HQ is based and incorporated in California that means their EULA doesn't mean squat under CA law and governed by that law across the U.S. As for other countries, I don't claim to know, but in the majority of places EULAs are not legal and binding either.
    The best way to get fully working drivers for these cards is for someone to disassemble them and document what the code does and why. Then that info can be passed to someone who hasn't seen the disassembled code and create a set of drivers based on the information given. This is called Clean room design. It's completely legal.
