Adobe is not Compatible with Vista? or not compatible with 64bit Vista?

From reading through some of the threads here, I am still a
bit confused. Is Captivate 4 not compatible with Windows Vista at
all? Or just not supposedly compatible with 64bit Vista?
Has anyone tried to do a software simulation recording of the
start button, or start menu, or any control panel windows? It
doesn't register a click at all! It will not record a frame!
This is rediculous Adobe. You had, what... 2 years almost? to
develop Captivate 4? And you can't even make it Vista compaitble?
I suppose you'll drop Captivate 5 in 6 months and make
everyone pay $400 for an upgrade just so they can record anything
in Vista? This had better be a high priority update. As it stands
right now, I have to do full motion recording. If I want to do
that, I will use Camtasia!!!
Please give me an answer or a workaround.... Someone..
Anyone.
I am using 64bit and it works fine if recording within an IE
window. All editing, recording, etc functions work fine. I have
tried to do this on a 32 bit version as well with no luck
(recording start menu / button/ control panel windows/etc)
Thank you.

run captivate "as

What changed??

Captivate 3 and 4 work fine on 32-bit Vista. Neither is fully
compatible
with 64-bit Vista, so far as I know, but you should be able
to get results
by running in 32-bit compatibility mode.

Lightroom6 instalation rejects installation on Windows 7 with remark that windows vista is not supported

I tried to install Lightroom 6 on my Windows 7 System
The installer jejects the Installation with the remark that Windows Vista is not supported by this product
Is that Problem known? Is any solution available?

Hi Michael,
You can follow the article: How to troubleshoot issues that may prevent a program from being installed correctly on a Windows Vista-based computer and check whether the installer is running in Compatible Mode or not.
If the check box for Compatibility Mode is checked and simply UnCheck it and click Apply.
Run the installer and again and check if it still gives you any error message.
Let us know if it works or not.
Thanks,

After much consideration, today I decided to join Adobe Photoshop CC only to discover it is not available to me as my laptop has Windows Vista. What are my options other than having to buy a new computer or an old version like Ps5 or 6?

1-Do some more reading about a Windows "upgrade version" which, according to my experience, does NOT require you to format your drive... it upgrades over what you have, without disturbing installed programs... at least that is what happened the ONE time I installed an upgrade version, so I can't give a 100% assurance it will work that way with your computer... search link for all things Microsoft http://search.microsoft.com/search.aspx?mkt=en-US&setlang=en-US
2-Depending on the hardware you have, you may not be able to run CC programs well, if at all
3-CS6 is 3+ years old and is the ONLY non-CC version still being sold... unless you can find a "legal" CS5 somewhere

I have the exact same issue. I can print one document and then I get the error mentionned above ("adobe creation cannot continue because acrobat is not activated"). Then I need to reboot in order to be able to print a new document.
I have suite and went to Photoshop as suggested, but this program is already activated. I tried to launch Acrobat Pro but it won't.
I'm using the Design and Web Premium CS6 Suite on Windows Vista.
Thank you so much for your help.

I am thinking about upgrading OS to Mavericks or Yosemite, but I do not know if my Adobe suites Elements 10 and Photoshop 10 are compatible. Adobe site does not contain this information anywhere.

I should be very grateful if someone can confirm definitively whether Photoshop Elements 10, and Premiere Elements 10 would run on Mac OS Mavericks and Yosemite, to which I am thinking of upgrading to? Thanks in advance

The suggested Roaring Apps Table is not helpful. It shows both my Adobe Apps as compatible with all the latest Apple OS, except Snow Leopard, which is actually the App I currently use them with!! So this is clearly not accurate. I still need help with definitive answer. Any Adobe Staff out there?

Is Photoshop Touch compatible with Samsung Galaxy Note?

This is THE app I've been waiting for!
And first on Android - very chuffed, because I got my 1st Android phone days ago - the Galaxy Samsung Note - the size of which makes it super ideal for this kind of app!
However, it says on Android Market that Adobe Photoshop Touch is not compatible with this phone.
Can someone please confirm this? Or can Adobe let us know when it will be compatible?
Thanks !

Hi David,
I just checked it out: Photoshop Touch is still unavailable on GooglePlay-Store; it still tells me that my Galaxy Note GT-N7000 is not compatible.
But:
Amazon App Store allows to download Photoshop Touch on Galaxy Note GT-N7000 yet !!! I bought PS Touch in this moment I AM SOOOOOO HAPPYY !!!!
Definitely creating a 1920x1080 px layer and brushing on it, is not that fast as it is on my Mac ... but that was not the point It really works fine, althought the display is a little bit small for that stuff
Biggest thanks for the Galaxy Note support and hate on GooglePlay
If anyone from Germany has problems putting Amazon App Store to German, contact me. I was fighting against some issues for more than 1 and a half hour Oo
So good night everbody and tomorrow will be a wonderful photoshopping day
PS: Just found some issues ... for example the preferences. If you clikc on preferences, there are some values to change (for example under "stylus"), but there is no text, what this value changes

Error Message: The attempt to connect to the report server failed. Check your connection information and that the report server is a compatible version. The request failed with HTTP status 404: Not Found.

I have a web page that contains a ReportViewer control. I am trying to display a report, which is an .rdl file located on the SSRS server, in this ReportViewer control. I have set the ReportPath and ReportServerUrl correctly. I am
getting an error message.
Am I suppose to use an .rdlc file rather than a .rdl file? Does the web server configuration need to use a certain account?
I am getting the following error message:
The attempt to connect to the report server failed. Check your connection information and that the report server is a compatible version.

Hi bucaroov,
The error "The request failed with HTTP status 404: Not Found." means the ReportServerURL configured in the ReportViewer control is invalid.
Please follow these steps to solve the issue:
Logon the Report Server machine.
Open the Reporting Services Configuration Manager.
Copy the Report Server URL from 'Web Services URL'.
Logon the application server(in this case, it is the server that host the web page), check if we can use the URL we got from step 3 to access the Report Server. If so, please replace the ReportServerURL in the ReportViewer control with this URL. If it is
not available, could you please post the error message.
Additionaly, we don't need to provide the extension for a server report. The ReportPath should be like: /<reports folder>/<report name>
For more information, please see:

P1006 - networked with XP and VIsta-64 not printing more than 2 pages

Hello - I have a dilemma with my HP P1006. I have the printer directly plugged in (USB) with my XP (32bit) PC. I have a Vista-64 PC networked with it. Both (XP-32 and Vista-64) are plugged in directly to the router (not wireless). My question is why can I not print more than two pages at a time with items opened on the Vista-64 PC? I CAN print more than two pages with items opened in the XP-32.
Things I've done:
1 - uninstalled everything & reinstalled the latest drivers for the XP-32.
2 - marked the printer as "sharing" on the XP-32.
3 - confirmed the printer is marked "enable bidirectional sharing" under the printer properties on the XP-32 PC.
Things I perplexed about:
1 - why won't items (docs, webpages, etc.) print more than two pages at a time from the Vista-64 PC?
2 - is there any reason that I should download a driver for the Vista-64 OS? If so, which PC do I download it to?
3 - I have another printer (Lexmark inkjet) connected in the same way (except it is a serial port not USB) and it can print more than two pages of a document at one time with no problem from either the XP-32 or Vista-64 PC? Why?
Any thoughts on this situation? Any suggestions are greatly appreciate.
Thank you - Jane.

Hi!
I just get a system message at teh bottom of teh screen saying "output cannot be issued " and it remains on teh same screen . I goto t-code va23 and enter my quotation number and on the top I select sales document ...issue output and select my output type and print preview or prnit , it comes out of that screen into the first screen and at the bottom gives msg "Output cannot be issued". I beleiev its not allowing the smartform to display when there are more than 2 pages , because I tried it with a contact which has 2 pages and it shows output but when I try with the one having more items i.e more than 2 pages it comes out of it . Its a smartform issue and something in the smartform is causing problem I beleive.
Thanks

Need help on resolving the issue with adobe output server - error MSG256 & MSG 210 not in .ini file

Hi,
I am using adobe output designer 5.5 for designing the label template and using the Adobe output server for printing process.
In the Jfmerge.ini we given the condition "DiscardUnknownFields=Yes" for ignoring the unwanted fields in the .dat file.
During the process, I faced some issue with the output server in printing the labels.
When the .dat file is placed in the Data folder of adobe, the label is not getting printed in the printer.
The file is move to the error folder and an error file is getting generated which contains the error message as given below:
090826 02:59:02 D:\Program Files\Adobe\Central\Bin\jfmerge: [256]** Message Msg256 not in .ini file **
090826 02:59:02 D:\Program Files\Adobe\Central\Bin\jfmerge: [210]** Message Msg210 not in .ini file **
2009/08/26 02:59:02 D:\Program Files\Adobe\Central\Bin\jfserver.exe: [314]Agent exit message: [210]** Message Msg210 not in .ini file **
The output server is a new installtion and I verified the Jfmerge.ini file. It contains the message details of Msg256 and Msg210.
I also verified the license and it is a valid licence.
Kindly help me out in solving this issue.
Thanks
Senthil

I assume this is too late to help you, but other might need a hint. I had the same problem, and found some possible causes that I posted on http://codeznips.blogspot.com/2010/02/adobe-output-server-message-msg210-not.html.
It is quite likely that you are missing some double quotes around the path specifying the ini file (-aii), if its installed under "Program Files".
Hope this helps anyone....

Help! my windows PC with Vista will not dowload itunes 10.7. It gives me an error message: Your system has not been modified

Help! my windows PC with Vista will not dowload itunes 10.7. It gives me an error message: Your system has not been modified.I
I have tried unistalling the current version I had which was 10.6.3, defragging and running a security scan. Now, the highest version I can get is 10.4.1. for some reason I cannot dowload itunes 10.5 or higher as it gives me the same message which is what I need to connect and update my iphone. Anyone facing the same issue or can point me in the right direction?

You may get better information on that error message by reposting in the iPhone forums:
iPhone
It's also possible that newer iPhone updates want an OS higher than Tiger. Post the specs of your computer and we can see if an OS upgrade is possible. There are a large number of G4 variants with different capabilities, so giving us something more than just "G4" will get you help faster.

My iMac with Leopard does not see Vista PCs on the network

My iMac with Leopard cannot see any of my Vista PCs on my network. I have an older G5 iMac (tiger) and the Leopard system see that one just fine. My older G5 sees my Leopard mac and all of the Vista computers. I just want the Leopard mac to see the Vista computers. Please help.

I'm having the same problem. It was literally working one minute and not the next. I also had this issue with my MBP but it was never resolved. I can ping the vista machine but not connect to the folder structure. This is really annoying because my vista machine is acting as a server and I need to remote desktop from the iMac to the windows machine.
Any ideas people?

Changed to secure - can connect with mac but not pc running vista

I changed my wrt54gs from unsecured to secure by changing the wireless > wireless security > to security mode: WPA personal, the wpa algorithms is set to TKIP, i set up a password in the shared key area and the group key is set to 3600. I saved the changes and now i can connect with the password with a macbook pro as well as with a ipod touch but i cant connect with a laptop running windows vista. I would get an error saying unable to connect, funny thing is though i am connect (and it is the correct router, not a neighbors) but it says connected with limited access. I tried to run diagnostics and repair but to no avail. Any thoughts on what to door is limited access ok?
thanks,
Dave

Try this :
Click Start >> Control Panel >> Network and Sharing Center >> Manage Wireless Networks, here remove all the networks present and close the Window...
Click on Connect to a Network and try to re-connect to your Network, it should ask for your Network Key/Password, enter the correct password/network key and click Connect...
It should connect...Once you are connected you should restart the computer, it should connect to Internet...

Adobe Acrobat Version 9.0 & X are not showing "Clear Signature Field" with Custom e-sign plug-in

Hi...
We have created Custom PDF signature plug-in using Adobe X SDK.
Earlier we had the same Custom PDF signature plug-in with Adobe 7.0 SDK and it used to show "Clear Signature Field" in context menu of digital signature placed on PDF.
After upgrading the Custom signature plug-in to Adobe X SDK (complied again with SDK X, earlier it used to be 5.0 SDK) to support Acrobat 9, X and XI for digital signature, the "Clear Signature Field" option is appearing in context menu of digital signature box. Even the "Clear Signature Field" option is not shown for the user who has signed the document.
"Clear Signature" option is available for Adobe Default Security signature.
We have not changed anything in our plug-in code apart from recompiling it with Adobe X SDK.
This is a critical issue for us.
Here is the screen-shot from signed PDF having Adobe Default signature as well as our Custom plug-in signature.
Here it clearly shows that "Clear Signature" option is not present in signature placed by Custom plug-in.
Please let us know if anyone else has faced this type of issue earlier and has a resolution.
Thanks In Advance...
Waseem

I am still not getting the Clear signature option for the user who has signed the PDF using Custom PDF Signature plug-in but the same is available for Acrobat Default security signature.
Custom plug-in is compliled with Adobe X SDK and we have not made any code change to hide the Clear Signature option.
I found a related posts where Clear Signature option is not shown:
