Adobe: Show Steve Jobs who's boss.

Adobe,
You, like many of us must be angry at Apple right now after the recent ban on 3rd party (flash) created i-phoine apps just days before the public unveiling of your new Creative Suite. I could only image the number of man hours put in by your flash team to get the i-phone app compiler into CS5.
I do not like Steve Jobs anymore. His open arogence and passive agressive maliciousness are beyond acceptable.
Would it be too much to ask if every application in CS5 could be released only for PC? Sure, most people who use CS would have to buy a new computer, but it wouldn't be a mac, so it would be pretty cheap. As a PC and Mac and Adobe user I can say there is no reason what-so-ever for Macs to be the standard for adobe products anymore. Processor speeds, graphics cards and memory are all so high now that it just doesn't matter if you are using a mac or PC.
I know this may hurt your sales at first, but don't worry, it'll be ok. Adobe products are the industry standard for all forms of multimedia development and the alternatives are either non-existent or crude and lacking. You own the market. Your customers will switch to PC if that is what you dictate. They will have no choice; Their livelihoods/jobs all depend on your products. In the end Apple will lose allot more money then you, which is all that matters to me anymore. Someone needs to bring Steve Jobs down a notch and you have the power to do it.

The problem with Adobe Products is that most people use them without adequate training. A little study of various manuals, seminars and online tutorials can make one good and be able to solve those small glitches.
I don't have any problem with the CS3 as the integration is unique and unequalled by any other company. The shortcomings are the Non Realtime playback in PPro. but it renders very fast and also not accepting Inscriber CG and Title Deko like 6.5 but Photoshop, Fireworks and Afterfx are there.
Imagine this guy saying of the so called University removing Adobe Products
"Most people can not even install the latest software because of the changes to adobes install programs."
The Adobe installtion is still the same and I think the guy can not read or is new to Computers. Read the manuals Please

Why is my iPhone camera not as good as the one showed off by Steve Jobs?

In the WWDC 2010, Apple's CEO Steve Jobs showed off the iPhone 4's 5MP camera. But mine is not that great, I get a lot of camera noise and the digital zoom *****, the video capture has a lot of noise too. What's up? Is my iPhone messed up Or are all iPhone 4 cameras like this?

You are probably trying to take pictures outside of the lighting conditions that are optimal for the phone. Camera noise is almost always a sign of insufficient light.
And digital zoom is a hoax on the inexperienced photographer. All it does is use less of the sensor, so it is the same effect as cropping the photo on your computer after taking it. This is true of any digital camera, not just the iPhone's.

I am 13 and I am very enthusiastic about Apple. At the moment I am reading a Steve Jobs auto-biography and I noticed something that Steve Jobs did in his early life was join the Hp explorers club. Are there any companies who still have clubs?

I really want to start making electronics as I plan to do a course on the subject
I would be so grateful if you can answer my question

Good catch! Yes there was a time when many companies and other organizations did that sort of thing. Now not so much.
Intel still sponsors clubs see http://www.computerclubhouse.org.
You might also check around, there might be after school programs, sometimes the YMCA or Boys & Girls Clubs have programs.
good luck

R.I.P Steve jobs a creative genius who left his mark on the world.....

So sad to hear the news about steve jobs my thoughts are with his family and friends at this sad time, he changed how think about our devices about not just needing them but wanting them. R.I.P.

The way Steve and Apple Computer touched so many lives in so many positive ways is profound beyond words. It is indeed a sad loss for us all, but more so for his family and friends and associates. I too, thank him for enriching my life and opening me up to devices that have brought pleasure and freedom to my personal world.

Steve Jobs fails to show up in my Outlook contacts

My Outlook 2007 contacts have a single entry "Steve Jobs" which I try to sync with
iTunes 8.2 on a Windows machine to my iPod touch runinng 3.x firmware. There are a few dozend contacts on the iPod. The sync takes a while, in the synchronization
SqlLite database quite a few entries are created but Steve Jobs's contact is not transferred to the iPod and the iPod's contacts don't make it to Outlook.
What would you suggest to get things working? None of the FAQ stuff seems to help

More symptomps:
Adding a single entry on the ipod touch side will lead to a message that
more than 5% of the data have been changed. So it looks that iTunes believes the number of records in Outlook is zero.
Also when selecting a category of calendar entries to sync all other category entries will be deleted on the ipod. I'm happy that I have a backup pst file and that syncing works in two other enviroments that I'm running: on an outlook 2003 machine and another outlook 2007 computer there is no problem.
Upgrading to Outlook 2007 service Pack II also did not help.
Still I'm looking for a way to set a debug or logging option or someother way to find out why
iTunes does not sync anything to or from Outlook 2007
iTunes does not complain that there is no Outlook 2007 connection
iTunes believes there are zero entries in Outtlook 2007
iTunes does not complain when trying to sync a modified / new entry from the iPod Touch to Outlook
This is all very strange. I'd hope that an apple developer would join this discussion to give more insight on what is going on behind the scenes.
Making iTunes openSource would of course be the optimal choice to avoid problems like the one in this thread.

ITunes Truncate Track Ending, Unsolved in 2+ Years: My Letter to Steve Jobs

I have posted this problem twice in this forum. Twice they were answered with something totally irrelevant, and then marked "Solved" and deleted.
Finally, I am going to mail the CD, and this letter to Steve Jobs, to let him know personally the bug, after so many years of iTunes, and the bullish way his stuff has been treating my questions.
Dear Steve,
My name is Leping, Ph.D. in Physics, working in the San Francisco Bay area as a senior medical imaging scientist. I am a long time and loyal Mac user and promoter -- actually I have not yet really needed to use a PC in my life (except for serious music ripping -- see below), and in the graduate school days our five+ million dollar NMR lab was run from a Mac.
Unfortunately, I am also an avid classical music enthusiasts, and part time musician. Needless to say I am now with my 6th iPod, and I believe I understand all the bells and whistles of iTunes. I am not talking about the higher-level bit-wise accurate CD ripping, that is only available on the PCs, through the EAC software, since also, as a well-regarded and published photographer, I know when is the time to use the pro level applications, such as Adobe Photoshop instead of iPhoto. For my photography works please check out my website at http://www.lepingzha.com -- I will be more than glad if you and/or Apple have use of any of my images.
However, I know a long time iTunes bug, that have never been addressed. Actually I posted it twice to the Apple web discussion forums, but was twice offered irrelevant answers, followed by the subject flagged as "Solved", and subsequently deleted.
Please open the still sealed compact disc in this letter, which I got in a retailer just to show you the problem. The title, Deustsche Grammaphon (DG) B0003902, is "Lang Lang plays Rachmaninov Concerto for Piano and Orchestra No. 2 and Rhapsody on a Theme of Paganini". It happens I am a Chinese American, but I want you to listen a bit into the disc not because I am a fan of Mr. Lang's playing -- as a matter of fact I actually not, but for the much more serious reason.
Please rip the Rhapsody in iTunes, to any format (AAC, Apple Lossless (ALAC), WAV, MP3...) starting from track number 4. A few tracks after that point would be adequate -- these are very short (10-30 seconds) tracks that truly highlight the problem. Listen to the resulting music, and the original CD, you will immediately hear the big problem, start right at the end of track 4 and at the end of every of these short tracks -- fraction of the ending second(s) are harshly chopped off, brutally truncated, and uncover-ably lost.
The same thing happens anywhere I use the Apple codecs, for example, converting the EAC (bit-wise correctly, as confirmed by its check-sum feature against the known sum database) ripped WAV files to ALAC or AAC, for instance, either on a Mac or a PC. The very same thing just happen, while there is no problem to any other non-Apple codecs (mainly to flavours of MP3 -- since Apple has the AAC and ALCA codec nobody bothered to write their own, I guess). So for our serious classical listeners, the iTunes and the Apple codecs are very problematic if not useless in many cases (operas immediately in my mind)!
Please alse not that, over the time the same problem has always been reported here, there, and basically everywhere, but every time there are gurus made comments which does not solve the issue. The followings are some recent examples.
http://discussions.apple.com/thread.jspa?messageID=6246698&#6246698
http://discussions.apple.com/thread.jspa?messageID=6513266&#6513266
I hope you, my much respected and praised Steve, realize, that, how could, and mostly unthinkable, after so many great years, there can be still such very basic and serious issue the iTunes codecs can not handle in the right way? Does the track length information get truncated somewhere (or floored to an integer)? Why it is so difficult to acknowledge such a basic issue, and to have it fixed in the next release?
Thanks for your time and hope you enjoy the music.
Look forward to hearing from you soon.
Best regards,
Leping Zha, Ph.D.
San Mateo, California, U.S.A.

Finally found the reason: in the track's option field for some reason the "stop time" flag is checked and the timing is always about a second earlier than the actual track length.
Searched Doug's scripts and there is nothing to batch reset, or unflag the "stop time" tag. Anyone has a better idea rather than trying to deselect the tag track by track?
Once the "stop time" is unset the converted tracks will play through without truncations at the end.

Steve Jobs comments on flash

Steve Jobs said flash is buggy (under Mac) and it explains why many Mac devices doesn't support flash. As to AIR applications, I do feel the performance and stability under Mac is worse than Windows. As a developer, I wish AIR apps can reach as many devices as possible (including iPhone and iPad). Does the AIR team have a rough estimation when this could happen?

Screw HTML5 - how much longer are we going to be playing with this legacy 90's garbage?
Every new piece of crap 'Internet technology' that comes out claims it'll save the world, fix all the problems, make everything WORK. Sounds like the usual bull. Why are we still playing with JavaScript and DHTML in 2010?? Where is this next generation Internet we've been promised? All I see is more hackish solutions built on top of already hackish foundations.
The only way to ditch this legacy rubbish is to move towards VM-based platforms. It's already happening in the hardware world. Flash/Flex and Silverlight are the Internet-RIA equivalent of the same trend. Stop trying to salvage technology conceived decades ago. What a waste of money and time!
I'd rather see Adobe team up with someone like Microsoft to engineer a next generation browser platform than play nice with Steve Jobs and his kool aid drinking customer base (who seem to be tasting poison more and more lately). Stop trying to build applications within technology that was designed to display static text, and start building applications on technology designed to run applications.

Steve Jobs bio in French?

Hello everyone!
The title says it all : I'm looking for the Steve Jobs "bio" in French and it's not available through the iBooks store...

Thanks for your help!

Thanks for your precious help! :) I read the terms of the store and to be able to read it on my iPad, I need to download their application and create an Adobe account... Not too complicated! ;)
Thanks again to everyone who replied!

OPEN LETTER TO STEVE JOBS

I'm not a developper, I'm not an English speaking guy (so sorry for my english) and this is an off topic message but I need to say something....
I have just read abut Steve Job's resignation and I think Apple would never be the same without him. I've read a lot of about Steve and I know he was involved in every little step of every apple product (from the initial design to the final product)
Did you know, for instance, that the Iphone has got just one button thanks to Jobs obstination to simplicity?. Nobody thougt it could be possible but him. He has the ability to transmit his energy and faith to everyone in the company to make his ideas possible.
I'm a mac user 7 years ago, not much, I know, but it is time enough to have my own oppinion about apple and what Jobs represents to the Company.
Mr. Jobs...thanks for my Iphone 4, its simplicity and efficiency that everybody wants to copy from, for my Imac Intel based , for my Lion OS in which I work on what I need without wasting my time in fixing OS problems, for my Ipod and above all...for make me feel I'm in touch with the future every time I use anything from apple.
I hope you'll be in the heart of apple for many many years (even not from you CEO position) ank keep all of us dreaming of the future everytime we see a "bitten apple".
Regards,
C. Llerandi

Color Picture of Steve Jobs that I would like to send to Apple for use in his honor. I prefer Color

I would like to send Apple a Color Picture of Steve Jobs that I found on Google. it's the same picture Steve Jobs Biography that
Walter Isaacson wrote. except it's in color. What I did was use my Drawing Pad Program to bring in the picture and then I brought in a splash I croped with Steve Jobs 1955-2011 and saved it. I want you all at Apple to have a copy to use for his memormial eash year. And Thank you Tim Cook and everyone at Apple for honoring Steve's values in keeping Apple products the great products that they are and will remain. Siri is such a riot. I have so much with her. I was able to use Best Buy's Trade-in Program and I traded my iPad 2 in for the new iPad 3rd Generation. I am one that needs Siri to help me spell some words when I get brain lock. lol. . She is also fun to play with. I asked her to tell me a joke, she came back with, " Two iPhones walk in a bar, I forget the rest. LOL. you all have an ad with this joke. I haven't asked her any questions on sports yet. I like figure skating in the winter olympics beacause it's so graceful.
Very Sincerely,
Janet Woodville

Steve Jobs keynote speech - how to get that quality and speed?

I watched Steve Jobs keynote speech with interest and envy.
How is it possible to get the video quality so good combined with so fast download - even on a relatively slow bandwidth I could more or less instantaneously scroll to the end?
I run a local net based TV station in Denmark http://www.tv-moen.dk and would love to supply that quality and speed. Can anyone help, please?
Sincerely
Sigurd Bo Bojesen

Dav Sigurd!
You are right, the videos on your site do not run smoothly - lots of stopping and re-buffering.
Presumably they are Flash videos?
Have you tried contacting Adobe?

An Open Letter To Steve Jobs

Dear Apple, Inc. and Steve Jobs:
I dont think a $100.00 store credit will win back the loyal apple customers, you know the ones who stood on store line's for hours to buy the iPhone. I will keep this short and sweet and to the point.
*1. All Customers should be treated Equal.*
From the ones who purchased the iPhone on Day 1 to the ones who bought an iPhone yesterday. There should be no difference or discrimination on timeline.
*2. Atleast give us $200.00 Store Credit or $100.00 Rebate-Check from Apple.*
I think this sounds fair. I do not think the $100.00 store credit is fair, as the other customers are getting $200.00 back.
You brought the company back, now do the right thing for its customers.
Do the right thing as the President of Apple, Inc.
*Treat us Equal.*

From Steve Jobs' 2005 Stanford Commencement Address:
"Your time is limited — so don't waste it living someone else's life. Don't be trapped by dogma — which is living with the results of other people's thinking. Don't let the noise of others' opinions drown out your own inner voice. And most important: Have the courage to follow your heart and intuition — they somehow already know what you truly want to become. Everything else is secondary."

From a lengthy 1995 interview with Steve Jobs:
"In the field that I'm in the difference between the best person and the worst person is about a hundred to one or more. The difference between a good software person and a great software person is fifty to one, twenty-five to fifty to one, huge dynamic range. Therefore, I have found, not just in software, but in everything I've done it really pays to go after the best people in the world. It's painful when you have some people who are not the best people in the world and you have to get rid of them; but I found that my job has sometimes exactly been that to get rid of some people who didn't measure up and I've always tried to do it in a humane way. But nonetheless it has to be done and it is never fun."

Re, "Podcasts about Podcasting" area on itunes and thank you, Steve Jobs.

Hi,
I've just started my About.com Guide to Podcasting and was hoping to eventually be listed in this prestigious list of folks. Knowing that I'm a total "newbie," wondering if any of the iTunes folks/fellow podcasters have any advice about getting listed in this area?
I also searched through the Technology Podcasts (as well as the podcasters on podcasting page) and couldn't find my show listed. Is this just because it's so young? I've heard you need to have four to five shows up before you're considered more than a flash in the pan.
Tangent: In this first episode (at the end) I talk about how watching Steve Jobs present at last year's Apple conference (talking about latest iLife suite) transformed my adult life (obviously for the better!) Didn't know if anyone at Apple (PR folks, etc.) would be interested in hearing it, but I'd love their feedback. I'll have the podcast listed on the about.com site (front page of the podcasting channel) so I hope to have lots of listeners/subscribers.
Thanks for the advice and best regards to all,
John C. Havens
About.com Guide to Podcasting
http://podcasting.about.com

Hi S,
Thanks very much for your help. I'll keep on podding.
Tangent: Do you have any MAC mail experts over there? For my about.com emails, people have said the "reply to" button says, "[email protected]" instead of "com" at the end. about says it's not on their end, and I've done the preferences/account checking thing multiple times. Any thoughts? If you could respond to: [email protected] that would be great because you might be able to see what's happening.
Or here. Not sure what the protocol is, so thanks.
