Adobe site - illegible text

The Adobe site uses a fixed font size on many, if not most pages.This is almost illegible on high resolution monitors and, as it is fixed, zooming the page enlarges everything you don't need to enlarge and keeps the body copy the same illegible size.
Using a 27" Apple monitor, the copy shows up on screen at a miniscule 6.75 pt. I have to use a hardware zoom to read the blinkin' content.
How is this a good thing? Can't figure out why they dropped the relational font size tag.
By the way, I couldn't find any website feedback link. I hope an Adobe rep is following this forum.
Thanks,

When you use the keyboard to zoom, it enlarges all of the images, but the font size remains fixed, which defeats the reason for zooming. The only way to read the text is to use hardware zoom, which zooms the entire image on screen and moves a big chunk of the web page right off the screen.
I can reproduce this behavior right on Adobe's main page, but only with Safari.  Personally I think it's more a bug with Safari than Adobe's web design.  As far as I know, browser zoom is not supposed to be dependent on web page content.
Perhaps you might want to consider using a better browser (e.g. Firefox) until Apple fixes the problem.
Here are multiple browser zoom levels, selected by keyboard Control + key combinations, showing how it works in a browser that's working properly.

  • I cannot log onto Adobe site

    My safari won't let me log onto Adobe site. Any body know why this would only happen with this site? I tried to reinstall operating system but it hung up. I suppose I'll have to use Chrome to get to site. I've tried everything, to clear Safari Cookies, etc. reset Safari,

    You, or someone using your computer, may have hacked the system to block certain servers, perhaps unknowingly. The file modified is /etc/hosts.
    The easiest way to fix the hosts file is to restore it from a backup that predates the modification, or to copy the unmodified file from another Mac. If you can't do that, then do as below. Please read this whole message before doing anything.
    Back up all data. This is a simple procedure, but if you don't follow the instructions exactly, you could be left with an unbootable system. In that case, you'll have to restore from a backup or reinstall OS X.
    If you have more than one user account, you must be logged in as an administrator.
    Triple-click anywhere in the line below to select it:
    open -a TextEdit /etc/hosts
    Copy the selected text to the Clipboard (command-C).
    Launch the Terminal application in any of the following ways:
    ☞ Enter the first few letters of its name into a Spotlight search. Select it in the results (it should be at the top.)
    ☞ In the Finder, select Go ▹ Utilities from the menu bar, or press the key combination shift-command-U. The application is in the folder that opens.
    ☞ Open LaunchPad. Click Utilities, then Terminal in the icon grid.
    Paste into the Terminal window (command-V). A TextEdit window should open. At the top of the window, you should see this:
    # Host Database
    # localhost is used to configure the loopback interface
    # when the system is booting.  Do not change this entry.
    127.0.0.1                              localhost
    255.255.255.255          broadcasthost
    ::1                                        localhost
    fe80::1%lo0                    localhost
    Below that, you'll see some other lines. There should be nothing above the first line "##". If you have any doubt about that, STOP and ask for guidance. Make sure you scroll all the way to the bottom of the document. Scroll bars are hidden by default until you actually start scrolling, so you may not realize that you’re not seeing the whole document.
    If the contents of the TextEdit window are as described, close it, then enter the following command in the Terminal window in the same way as before (by copy and paste):
    sudo sed -i~ '11,$d' /etc/hosts
    This time, you'll be prompted for your login password, which won't be displayed when you type it. If you don’t have a login password, you’ll need to set one before you can run the command. You may get a one-time warning to be careful. Confirm. Quit Terminal.
    If you see a message that your username "is not in the sudoers file," then you're not logged in as an administrator. Log in as one and start over.
    That will fix the hosts file. There is now a copy of the old hosts file with the name "hosts~" in the same folder as "hosts". You can delete the copy if you wish. Don't delete the file named "hosts".

  • Safari won't load almost all adobe sites

    Everytime I do a google search or try to log into any Adobe site forum it doesn't work. Any question about Flash or Adobe product and the link starts with "http://www.adobe.com..." doesn't work. It is VERY frustrating! I've even tried resetting the browser and no luck. Try the link below, doesn't work.

    You, or someone using your computer, hacked the system to enable the use of unlicensed Adobe software. To remove the hack, proceed as follows.
    Back up all data.
    These instructions must be carried out in an administrator account, if you have more than one user account.
    Launch the Terminal application in any of the following ways:
    ☞ Enter the first few letters of its name into a Spotlight search. Select it in the results (it should be at the top.)

    ☞ Open LaunchPad. Click Utilities, then Terminal in the icon grid.
    Copy or drag — do not type — the line of text below into the Terminal window, then press return:
    open /etc/hosts
    A TextEdit window should open. At the top of the window, you should see something like this:
    # Host Database
    # localhost is used to configure the loopback interface
    # when the system is booting.  Do not change this entry.

    Below that, you'll see some other lines. There should be nothing before the first line above. Make sure you scroll all the way to the bottom of the document. In OS X 10.7 or later, scroll bars are hidden by default until you actually start scrolling, so you may not realize that you’re not seeing the whole document.
    If the contents of the TextEdit window are as described, close it, then enter the following command in the Terminal window in the same way as before; i.e., without typing:
    sed '/lo0/q' !$ > Desktop/hosts
    You should now have a file named "hosts" on your Desktop. Double-click the file to open it in TextEdit, and verify that it has only the contents shown above, with any extra lines removed. If so, close the window without making any changes.
    Next, go back to the Terminal window and enter one final command, again without typing:
    sudo sh -c 'cat Desktop/hosts > /etc/hosts'
    This time, you'll be prompted for your login password, which won't be displayed when you type it. You may get a one-time warning not to screw up. Confirm. Quit Terminal.
    Do not type anything in the Terminal window except your password.
    That will fix the hosts file. You can now delete the file that was created on your Desktop.

  • Problem with finishing install of Flash Player on a Mac. When finishing by entering the requested password, the dialog box jiggles as if the p/w is invalid. But it works in the Adobe site.

    I am trying to install Flash player on my Mac. All the steps are working as they should, until the point where I am asked to enter my password. I do this, and the dialog box jiggles as through  the p/w were invalid. However, it works to sign in to the Adobe site. I just changed it to be sure and checked again.

    There is no password required to download or install the Flash Player.  Chances are your Mac is requiring you to enter its password to allow the installation to occur.

    Hi.  My new computer had Acrobat on it.  Suddenly, I was unable to open any PDF's.  and then I tried to update and was forwarded to the Adobe site that said I had to buy a monthly subscription.  I do not have the physical box with a serial number and was going to buy the one advertised on the website until I discovered it's only for students and teachers, which I am not.  What should I do next as I need to use PDFs on a daily basis.  Thanks!  I would like to be able to download this and pay online.  Possible? I currently have Adobe Acrobat XI Pro.  I have a Windows 7 system.  Please help!

Can I use the US Adobe site when in Ireland? Or will my physical location prevent me from doing so? 2. I am working for a not-for-profit organization. Is there a special pricing plan for non-profits, similar to the plans for students, small business, etc? Thanks for whatever help you can give me. (P.S. As a potential customer and past user of Adobe products for 15  years, I find it INCREDIBLY FRUSTRATING that I cannot speak with any Adobe representative, but am continually re-routed instead to a public forum to get what I hope will be accurate information. Not good, Adobe. Your products are amazing. Your customer service leaves a lot to be desired. I don't mean that with disrespect, but as honest feedback.)

    Thanks for your feedback.
    Non-profit pricing is available to eligible institutions via the VIP program which is sold by resellers - see Eligibility guide
    For details of resellers please check here: Adobe Platinum Partners – Value Incentive Plan
    If you wish to purchase an individual plan via Adobe.com the country of your Adobe ID will determine which site you order from.

  • "My Adobe" site is permanently redirected to "Adobe ID" site. There is no way to retrieve serial numbers for CS 5.5 products and below.

    How can I get my serial number for CS 5.5 Master Collection and CS 5.5 Captivate? This was retrievable only a few days ago using the "My Adobe" site at (adobe.com/account.html)
    The My Adobe URL (adobe.com/account.html) has a permanent redirect to the new Adobe ID URL (accounts.adobe.com/) Just a few days ago, Adobe "My Products and Services" contained my collection of serials.Users now cannot access this URL at adobe.com/account/my-products-services.html with the redirect in place.
    The new Adobe ID site "My Products" at (accounts.adobe.com/products) reports "You have no registered products." We need the "My Adobe" classic site back to access our registered serials.
    Adobe should update their help documentation that references the old link (adobe.com/account.html) as well. Here are a couple of examples:
    Where is My Adobe account info | How to sign in/out « Caveat Lector
    Serial number, Redemption, and Product codes | Student & Teacher Editions

    https://accounts.adobe.com/products shows all my products with their serial numbers back to 2005 when I first registered PSE2.0 that came bundled with my camera, and the two example pages with old links properly redirect to the Plans page and all I have to do is click View all products and again I will see my list back to 2005.
    So things are working just fine for me.  If it says you have no products, maybe there are changes still percolating through the server network that aren’t in place from where you’re surfing from, or maybe you have multiple AdobeIDs and are signed into the one that doesn’t have products registered to it.
    In other words, things appear to be working just fine with my AdobeID using either the old links or the new links and so I’d reword the request to be that you want the new site to work properly.   The old site did have another layout that required clicking into each product to see the serial number whereas the new site list everything on one page without clicking into anything.  I prefer the new way.
