Adobe licensing changes

Hello,
I use Captivate and Presenter for a long time, a lot of years. Then I used Adobe eLearning Suite when Adobe launched it. Last on January 2013, I upgraded my eLearning Suite to Adobe Volume Licensing with 2-year maintenance. Today, I hear that Adobe applications will be available exclusively through Creative Cloud. Not perpetual licenses. Great. Adobe will damage my investment on the fly in the middle of my maintenance period.
So, I bought my license as perpetual with 2-year maintenance till January 2015. Now, I will get one year Creative Cloud subscription (till year 2014), and then what will? Where are my products with perpetual licenses? Is it possible to change license during maintenance in this manner?
Adobe makes a joke? Adobe appreciates my business? Great business for Adobe, I think. To get money for 2 years and to change licensing in next several months. Thank you very much, Adobe!
PS: Adobe Acrobat from eLearning Suite has broken Acrobat Distiller (licensing issue I mentioned in another thread - trial message). So, I paid for 2 years of maintenance... For several months, I cannot use Distiller. From now, I will be without Creative Cloud applications I have prepaided. Beautiful.

  • Adobe Licensing Website / Problems Logging In

    So when I go onto the Adobe Licensing website to log in with my Adobe ID it says "Adobe does not recognize you as an authorized user of this web site." I'm not sure what I'm doing wrong; I even changed my password and it still won't let me log in. Do I need a separate account for the licensing or..? Please help.

  • Adobe Bridge Changed Cr2 Files to CR2.Jpg

    I'm so exhausted trying to figure this out! I'm a new Photoshop user. Just purchased it. Imported or opened Canon 40D raw files to see slideshow. I usually copy the original raw file from the cf card to a folder on my external drive. Now I need to go in and edit them in Lightroom 2.5 and I only see a small size ( 256x170) file "IMG_8611.CR2.jpg (what?). Does Adobe Bridge change file formats on its own? This is scary! Are the original cr2 files still located somewhere on the external drive? What's going on here? Also, is there any person to person support at Adobe? This is terrible. Thanks.

    In the first post you said you edited the RAW file in Lightroom.  Now you do not mention it.  Where are you editing the file?  If in Lightship I don't believe the normal mode is to generate a XMP file.
    When you open Photoshop it does not automatically open camera raw, so confused here also.
    The least confusing way to edit is to open Bridge and right click on RAW file, then choose "open in camera raw".  You edit and then click done to save edits, or open image to go to PS.  If you double click image it will open PS and the same ACR window.
    You can set up Bridge so that the external drive is a "favorite".  Beware that if you have Bridge set to "open on startup", the external drive may not be recoginzed as Bridge can load before the computer can recognize it is connected.  Disable this function.
    You say "I go to the folder and open the image directly into Camera Raw".  Is this a separate window with all the adjustment sliders that is titled "Camera Raw 5.x"?  Once you do your edits here and click Done it saves the edits and puts a little weird circle in upper right corner of thumbnail to show it has been edited.  If you click Open Image it opens it in PS with the edits.
    How do you save the picture once you have made your edits, Done, Save, Save As, or ?
    You ask "Is there a way to find where the XMP's are and if I can find my original CR2 file in there somewhere? "  As I said in previous post you use Win. Explorer.  It should be in same folder as file, with same name.  NOTE - not all files generate an XMP file, depends on the edit.  Some of the info is written directly to the file. 

  • Adobe licensing query

    I have installed Flash CS5 and Flash 8 on single computer system to frequently work on both softwares Hence, my query is that how many Flash licenses required to purchase to me to complain with adobe licensing?
    If I have purchased one Flash CS5 license then is it possible to use any old version of flash software on the same system which already have installed license Flash CS5?
    Please suggest!
    Thanks in advance

    Hi Sir,
    Thanks!
    Actually, I have tried to see in Adobe Software license Agreements but still not get this information in written form.
    But, Thanks you to clear my doubts.

  • Windows 2008 R2 OEM to Volume License change after p2v.

    Did online search and even called Microsoft licensing, got very confusing and different answers. So posting here.
    P2V'd a HP server running 2008 R2 Standard (64 Bit) , everything went smooth, after 2 weeks server is giving "Build 7601, the copy of windows is not genuine. The Product ID reads : 00XXX-OEM-8XXXXXX-1XXXXX
    Our company does have volume license keys and my understanding is that we need to give one to this server. Can I just change product key and activate using new volume licensing key ?  or do you I need to do a repair- as I read in most cases with win2003.
    Called MS:
    1st Support Agent : Go ahead, change product key, reboot and give us a call to reactivate.
    I asked for another confirmation and was transferred to tech support
    Tech Support: Give us your name, number etc., we need to open a ticket, charge $259 or let me transfer you to volume licensing.
    2nd Support Agent: We recommend a clean install for any volume licensing changes. Kept repeating it x 10.
    me: This is a production server, I cannot do that, its too late, sorry.
    he: Ok, then  go ahead and try to change the key and see if it works.
    me: would it break anything or any risk
    he: Not sure, as we recommend a clean install is recommended for any Volume License.!
    Please advise if anyone has come across upgrading OEM to Volume after p2v. thanks

    Hi Karma,
    For the license issue after P2V, the thread may be helpful for you:
    Licensing OEM servers after P2V
    In addition, if you have further concerns about licensing, I still recommended to contact
    Microsoft Licensing specialist for better assistance.
    Best Regards,
    Anna Wang
    Thanks for your suggestions. But the threads are too long to read for a simple problem with a simple solutions.
    Here is the solution for anyone looking, Please check you license key sticker and there should a Virtual Key just below the OEM , use that key after migration. and you are GOLD!
    Unfortunately, two of the Microsoft Licensing Specialist I spoke to, had no clue about this.

  • Major problem - Adobe licensing won't let me download

    I'm one of the administrators of my company's Adobe Licensing account. When I log in and visit the downloads available, I can see all of the purchases we've made, and among them CS 5.5 Design Std Win is listed. I need to download that to reinstall for a user. Whenever I attempt to download any of the files, I agree to the terms, and a window always pops up saying "Download Session Expired" and telling me to log back in. I've tried that three times now, on three different computers through both the unfiltered wireless and the filtered corporate network, attempting both direct download and download manager, and I always get the same popup. Even my home laptop with a different configuration fails.
    I was able to successfully download just a month ago. Does anyone have a clue what's gone wrong here?

    OK, figured it out: I was using Firefox and only Internet Explorer works, I somehow forgot that. This is so frustrating, given how cross-compatible the new versions are now Adobe must have intentionally broken non-IE support. At least it could present an "Unsupported Browser" message to keep people from wasting time.

  • Adobe licenses - import into SCCM (for reports purpose)

    Dear Adobe community
    Are there any good tricks for importing Adobe license keys from our Adobe Volume License web page into a SCCM 2012 server?
    There are some great reports in SCCM where you can check which Adobe products are installed on which computers, but I have yet to discover how to import them.

    Moving this discussion to the Creative Suite Enterprise Deployment forum.

  • Adobe License utility has stopped working

    Every time I launch a CC program a window pops up saying, "ADOBE LICENSE HAS STOPPED WORKING".
    The programs all work but some of the plugins have to have serial numbers installed again, whilst some are not working at all.

    Hello
    as much as I regret it and as strange as it may seem I fear it's a challenge for Adobe's Creative Cloud Cleaner Tool.
    Sometimes - for whatever reasons - CC doesn't "want" to work. In this case you should CC completely delete and reinstall by help of Adobe Creative Cloud Cleaner Tool. (A try to uninstall by own resources is not enough!)
    I quote: ... helps resolve installation problems for Adobe Creative Cloud and Adobe Creative Suite (CS3-CS6) applications. The tool removes installation records for prerelease installations of Creative Cloud or Creative Suite applications. It does not affect existing installations of previous versions of Creative Cloud or Creative Suite applications.
    Please use: http://helpx.adobe.com/creative-suite/kb/cs5-cleaner-tool-installation-problems.html   and follow the prescribed sequence of operations
    Sometimes the "opm.db file" is the culprit. In this case you should delete it.
    If necessary and for further questions click through http://helpx.adobe.com/contact.html  and if "open" please use chat, I had the best experiences.
    Good luck!

  • Re: Claim Your Adobe Licensing Product Upgrade

    Dear Sir,
    I received the email from your company about the claim for the Adobe Licensing Product Upgrade. I have log-in to the webpage with the coupon no. and find the coupon is already being deleted.
    Please help to check if the coupon is deleted or we are not entitled to have this upgrade.
    Thank you very much.
    Keung

    Hi Too,
         My understanding is that you are referring to the claiming for the free upgrade in Volume Licensing purchase. Usually the coupon code will be active only for 180 days from the date of email sent to you. If the email is sent within 180 days, then as Nikhil suggested above, please contact Adobe Support.
    You can either contact over chat or phone, but Chat is very good.

  • Downloading CS6 on Adobe Licensing Website

    Does anyone know when CS6 Master Collection will be available for download on the Adobe Licensing Website?  We are a school and download all of our purchased software from there.  We have a extended paid subscription which includes free upgrades as long as its within our purchasing timeframe.  I have checked all over and do not see it anywhere on the ALW.  They only have CS 5.5 as the latest. 
    Thanks
