After upgrading to CS5, printing PDFs has become a nightmare!

After upgrading to CS5, printing PDFs has become a nightmare!
For example,
1. It would never finish printing the file, just the first so many pages. So...
2. I updated the driver, and then I could print one copy only without problems. But...
3. I can never print more than one copy of a PDF without collate mis-sequence problems. It just does not print one whole copy before printing the next copy. And it goes back and forth printing some of the first copy, then the second, then a few pages from the first, etc. Eventually it all prints, but they are mixed up sequentially. But some pages are in order. And...
4. It prints soooo slow compared to before.

All I know is that before I could print fine and fast and in any quantity I wanted (while using CS3 Indesign exported PDFs and Booklet Spreads on my latest and greatest printer, a Color Ricoh SP C420 DN).
But now, since I upgraded to a Master Suite of CS5, at first it would never print the whole file, even once. And when I upgraded to the Universal Print Driver, and or any other drivers, it will only print one copy of a PDF without mis-sequencing the printed pages, and it is so slow. It is worthless.

P.S. I think I need to try to call Ricoh or something, but will that work? Sigh!
Yeah, this sounds like a general print driver problem with the newer versions of the Adobe products, not just Acrobat or ID. Ricoh may or may not have an updated driver, but theyare definitely the ones to ask.
You haven't told us the OS... Some Mac users have had good luck, I think, using the CUPS drivers with problem printers when the manufacturer doesn't have a solution, but I'm a Windows guy, so don't do much with Mac printing.

Please, help! After upgrading to Yosemite, my dock has disappeared, along with the dashboard and the wallpaper! Can anyone help? I'm using a MacBook Pro, retina, bought it last year.

Have you been trying to download from the app store? Did you get a message?
As a suggestion, you might go to an Apple store (genius bar appointment) for help. As far as I know, there should be no charge.

Can't Find My Pictures Folder in Bridge after upgrading to CS5

Can't see My Picture folder after upgrading to CS5. See My Videos, My Favorites, My Music. I must have something I need to enable in View.
Checked Preferences and My Pictures is check in Preferences.
Can see all my picture files just fine when I plug in my external drive with the files all brought it by date.
Thanks.

If you mean My Pictures it is on the C drive.
I have four internal and two external drives and all picture files show up in Bridge for immediate access except the My Pictures folder under my name on the main drive.
There is only one partition on the drive and there is 350 gb free space.
The set up, programmes,security software and drives are identical to when I was using CS5 with Vista, which is why I am thinking it is something to do with Win 7.

Epson r1900 Prints too dark after upgrading to cs5 from cs3

Ok this one has got me stumped. While still in photoshop CS3 my epson r1900 was printing photo's just fine. After upgrading cs3 to Photoshop cs5 it now prints everything too blue. Nothing else has changed. My monitor is still calibrated, my printer paper profiles are still the same, the only change was upgrading to cs5. To me it looks all the world like ICM is being applied twice (in photoshop and the printer) but in photoshop I have selected "photoshop manages colors" just like I did in cs3, and in the print dialog box for the printer, I have selected no ICM again just like I did in CS3. But now the prints come out with a, to my eye, dark blue tint. Very very frusterating. I have deleted the color prefs file and let that recreate, but that did not help either. I am out of tricks. Any suggestions?
Thanks
Patrick

There were a lot of reports of "double profiling" with Epson printers when Photoshop CS5 was first released. I believe many people were seeing magenta-looking prints at that time.
Unfortunately, I don't think there was ever a resolution or even a good workaround... I recall at least one person bought a new printer to be able to continue to work.
Of course, double check to see whether Epson has released any updated printer drivers.
As I don't have an Epson myself, I can only suggest that you'll want to experiment with your settings to see if you can find a way to disable color management in the printer driver, so that only Photoshop does it - or disable color-management in Photoshop so that only the printer driver will do it.

Photoshop CS6 issue with shortcuts and my keyboard after upgrade from CS5

I recently upgraded from CS5 Extended to CS6 Extended on my Mac (Mavericks), but installed it in English instead of German this time. I transferred most of my presets just fine, but none of the keyboard shortcuts were working. All I got was an unequal sign for all shortcuts and even manually changing them didn't get them to work. I found a few discussions about this issue and ended up adding a German keyboard, as I am always on the Romaji setting of my Kotoeri (Japanese) keyboard. That seemed to solve the issue, but only if I change to the German keyboard before opening Photoshop. Shortcuts don't work in CS5 anymore either unless I do. Sometimes the shortcuts also stop working a while after I change back to the Kotoeri keyboard.
Now I would like to know if there is any way to get around this issue. Isn't there a way to get my shortcuts working again without constantly having to change keyboards? I much prefer the Kotoeri one since the icon for the German keyboard in my menu bar looks extremely obnoxious, in my opinion. It's mostly a cosmetic thing to me, but I would love to get everything back to the way it was before.
I'd much appreciate any advice or help.

I am having a similar problem. Just upgraded to Apple Yosemite and all none of my keyboard shortcuts are working in a clean install of Photoshop CS6. Every menu item has some form of the ≠ sign. I've trashed the .plist file, rebuilt permissions, etc. Even basic keyboard commands, like Command-N for NEW or Command-Q for QUIT do not work. In fact, many don't show up in the menu at all. I don't have this issue in InDesign CS6 or Illustrator CS6. Every once in awhile, maybe 1 time out of 20, menus and keyboard shortcuts work properly, but I can't find any pattern.

Pdf has become default setting

All of a sudden anything I print (text or photos) shows up as .pdf in preview. As a result my photos are not the size I intend them to be. I haven't changed any settings (that I'm aware of) and I have gone through all my preferences looking for a pdf box to uncheck. This happens with both printers in my network

The Print dialog has a PDF tab whereby you can save
all print jobs as a pdf. Likewise, there is a Preview
tab in the same Print dialog that will make a pdf of
the file and give you a preview of the document in
Preview. If the Print button in the Print dialog is
behaving like the latter process, then it sounds like
the printing system has some major issue. When the
Preview appears, you should have a Print tab. What
happens when you select this? I'm wondering if yet
another preview of the document appears of if the
print job is spooled off to the printer.
If another preview appears I would delete both
printers and reset the printing system, which is a
menu within the Printer Setup Utility. You may then
have to reinstall the printer driver and add the
network printer again, but this may be all that you
need to do.
I'm not sure how to describe the solution to my problem. The more that I looked at "preview", the more the layout looked like an old 4'X6" photo paper setting that I used to use with a previous inkjet printer I had. After restarting the computer and digging through all the places "page layout" could be selected, I was able to rid myself of the no longer useful setting. Now, I am happy to say, I can print without problems. So I thank you for offering a solution to a question that turned out not to actually be my problem. I appreciate your willingness to help.

After upgrading to Lion, Printer error messages.

After upgrading to Lion, I suddenly see the following error message whenever I print to my HP printer: "You can't open the application PrinterProxy because PowerPC applications are no longer supported." Now, my document will print, but I can no longer adjust settings. Help??

PowerPC applications are no longer supported under Lion. If you can't find Lion drivers on HP's website, you either need to go back to Snow Leopard or start looking for a newer, compatible printer.

After upgrade to iTunes 11 "iTunes has detected a problem with your audio configuration"

After upgrading to iTunes 11 I have lost all sound on my PC running Windows XP. When I try to open iTunes I get the following message: "iTunes has detected a problem with your audio configuration. Audio/Video playback may not operate properly." I have also lost sound when I attempt to listen to audio from a Website while in a browser session. I notice I have also lost the volume setting icon from the system tray in the lower right corner of the screen.
Please advise.

Something went wrong during the upgrade to iTunes 11. I have lost audio on my desktop PC running Windows XP. No sound in iTunes: "iTunes has detected a problem with your audio configuration. Audio/Video playback may not operate properly." No sound during browser sessions. The volume control icon disappeared from the system tray in the lower right corner of the screen.
It seems that an audio driver(s) were damaged or deleted. When I go into the Control Panel and check the reading for the audio hardware, the entry for the DVD/CD-ROM drive says:
"Windows cannot start this hardware device because its configuration information (in the registry) is incomplete or damaged. (Code 19)
Click Troubleshoot to start the troubleshooter for this device."
Please advise.

Besides using CS5.5 premiere pro, I would still like to edit my prior projects in CS3 premiere some times. Thanks. - john

Uninstall CS5 after upgrade to CS5.5 Production

I have recently upgraded to CS5.5 production and would like to know if I should remove CS5 now that I am running 5.5? Or is there any reason to keep both on my computer?
Is there any special method of uninstalling the old suite.

The only downside to keeping both is the use of disk space.

Some Photoshop issues after upgrading from CS5 Master to CS5.5 Master

Hello
I'm a bit of a noob when it comes to the Adobe stuff. Not so with PC's
Win 7 SP1 x64 8G RAM etc etc...
I have a CS5.5 Master License and it is the update from CS5 that has thrown a wrench into my works.
I had CS5 MAster Collection happily running along; no problems. I decided to buy the CS5.5 upgrade and I installed it in place.... that is, on top of the CS5 stuff.
Now I have Photoshop problems;
1. The upgrade did not over-write my PS 5 directory... it created a PS5.1 Directory. D'oh! No plugins in PS5.1!! Not what I expected at all. I just wanted it to upgrade. Is it normal for Adobe products to do this (the answer seems to be yes) and if so how do I get my plugins in the new version? It's kind of a pain... I have a lot of photoshop plugins... What do most users here do? Uninstall old versions first? Change the "plugins" path? I don't require the older version of PS5 on my hard drive... but now the plugs are in PS5 and the OS opens PS5.1... whoops!
2. My Photoshop printing broke in both versions 5 and 5.1. I am just using an Epson 3880 and when I try to print in PS I get a message to the effect that the printer is no longer available (it is) and it's the wrong profile... trouble is... the Printer menu item then becomes greyed out... I can't change anything. Can't fix. Does that ring a bell with anyone? This seems to be related to the upgrade. My Lightroom 3.x still prints the exact same photo with the same profile and printer just fine.
So.... If anyone can shed some light on these two specific issues I would really appreciatte it! and with so many pieces (it is a huge Suite) would I be better off un-installing CS5 and then installing CS 5.5? What are the hardcore adobe users thoughts on best practices for upgrades?
Thanks a ton! -- David

1. Yes, Adobe apps always install in new folders.
2. Try the Photoshop forum for Photoshop specific questions.
Most of the apps weren't really upgraded. The .1 releases just added CS services as far as I know.
I just built a new machine and installed InDesign CS5 and then installed the CS5.5 Master Collection. Your needs may vary.

"Edit in Photoshop" missing after upgrade to CS5

I use Lightroom 2.7 running on a Windows 7 x64 machine. I just upgraded from CS4 to CS5 and "edit in Photoshop" is no longer an option in Lightroom. Photoshop is shown as "not found".
I rebooted the computer and that was no help. I "repaired" Lightroom 2.7 using the Window installer. No help.
I'm at a loss about how to get Lightroom to recognize Photoshop CS5. Anyone have any ideas??

quote "I can only 'Edit in Photoshop.exe' because I did added an 'additional external editor'."
I have done the same thing but this is a poor work around. I use Photoshop in my workflow to finish edit photos I organize and work up in Lightroom. Using this procedure 1) takes more time as a tif or pdf file is created and edited and 2) since I don't want the edited file I have to delete after I edited it. It is a lot of extra work without any benefit.
When Photoshop is directly linked to LR the whole workflow is snappier and more efficent.
Clearly Adobe hasn't updated LR to pickup CS5.... they need to.

M2t (mpeg2 layer2 audio) Out Of Sync audio after upgrade to cs5

Hi Everyone,
We use JVC GYHD201 Cameras daily - they produce MPEG T/S files that worked fine in CS4.
I am running win 7 Ultimate 64 on an intel Skulltrail MB w 16 gig of ram, 2 x 9775 quad core processors and a ati 4870x2 video card with 2 gigs of ram.
Here is the chain of events,
Lots of projects in cs4, no transcoding files work straight from the camera's DVR. (720p30)
I decide to CS5
I deactivate CS4 Install CS5 - CS5 trial works with all my projects and reads the now offending m2t files fine, works great.
I open AE CS4, - I get sorry to interrupt but enter a serial number or go to trial mode. I select trial mode.
Now, CS5 can no longer import the files.
I read about needing a full license for many formats, considering cs5 a nice upgrade, fork out the dough.
After entering serial numbers and restarting files import fine, BUT sound is out of sync by a 1-2 seconds and expotentially as the video plays out.
Files play fine in vlc, media player etc.
Codec Sniper shows all /cs4/mainconcept codecs as broken
I deinstall CS4/ CS5 and reinstall cs5 only, Same problem
I deinstall cs5, delete every folder with adobe on it in /user/ and prog files reinstall, same problem (cs4 installation fix)
I deinstall, delete all folders and create a new user install to that user, same problem (cs4 installation fix)
Reinstall quicktime ,...
I buy the Mainconcept mpeg2 64bit codec pack, same problem
Converting the video to MONO fixes the out of sync. -go figure.
Unfortunate, our operators are too lazy to shut off the second mic so quite often I have to copy left or right channel. Also, I have many left right recordings with 2 mics, this is not a solution I can live with. (Kudos to Mr. Jolly of Adobe video tech support in India for the Mono fix)
These same files open fine in a machine that has cs4 and cs5 installed on it,
want to get into transcoding to fix it, does anyone know who to force the adobe splitter to use the mainconcpt codecs I just bought or to force the use of whatever codecs are supposed to be included in cs5?
Any ideas would be appreciated.this has gone on for 3-4 days now and I am quickly falling behind on the work flow.

I am wondering is anyone can tell me where CS5 is looking for it's codecs??, it doesn't seem to be using windows
