Broken dependency with adobe-flashplugin: error: no alternatives for iceape-flashplugin; prevents installing firefox

After a firefox update, my wife received a warning that there was a broken dependency in the adobe-flashplugin. Was unable to correct with apt-get, so I un-installed firefox. Now when I try to install firefox using apt-get install ... I receive the following error:
"(Reading database ... 292457 files and directories currently installed.)
Removing adobe-flashplugin ...
update-alternatives: error: no alternatives for iceape-flashplugin.
update-alternatives: error: no alternatives for iceape-flashplugin.
dpkg: error processing adobe-flashplugin (--remove):
subprocess installed pre-removal script returned error exit status 2
postinst called with argument `abort-remove'
dpkg: error while cleaning up:
subprocess installed post-installation script returned error exit status 1
Errors were encountered while processing:
adobe-flashplugin "

Thanks for the recommendations, I solved the problem by downloading Firefox 12 from the Mozilla download site, then manually installing it.

Incompatible with Adobe InDesign (Error code: 14)

Hi all,
I've been having major problems with InDesign CS3 and OS 10.5. It always crashes when I try to Place, Export, Save As, anything that requires it to navigate the finder.
Now, while trying to export to PDF, the document froze. So I had to force quit it. Now ANY InDesign file I try to open gives me the error message:
The file "file name" is incompatible with Adobe InDesign (Error code: 14).
Has anyone experienced this? I'm now stuck as I cannot open anything to get some work done.
Thanks in advance.

Hi all
I have the excat same problem. Indesign CS5 and also my CS4 comes op with the error code 14.
It qrashes before I get into the program, also when I open it throug the program Icon and not the file.
I have tried:
Restarting
Shot down and take out the power cord for severeal minutes
Deleting the preference files "Defaults" and "SavedData" manualy
Deleting the file "InfoPlist.Strings" in folder "itlproj" which was a folder that keept showing on restart. (it was a italian languae to a dropdown shadow throug Flash CS5)
Remove indesign CS5 and CS4 (with the program uninstall icon) and reinstalled it
I have no clue to what more I can do. Think it could be a system fault. I have the following:
Mac OS X Version 10.6.8
Dual core Intel Xeron
Snow leopard
It just suddenly didnt work. Couldnt copy paste text from a mail into a file in Indesign and then it just crashed. Havent installed any new updates or programs so it is very weird.
Any help would be very much appriciated
Take care

Please! can anyone tell me if after I create a site with adobe muse, is there anyway for my client t

Please! can anyone tell me if after I create a site with adobe muse, is there anyway for my client to edit and update text and to a lesser extent images on the website?
I don't care if the client text/image editing and updating doesn't update in my Adobe Muse, as long as my client can update the text online.
Please help me answer this question, I have used adobe for decades (2) and am a print designer. I want to use Muse for websites but if my clients can't update text and images, I don't see how I can make it work.
If I have to use Business Catalist too; I don't care. I just want to be able to use this great software.
Sorry if I soud desperate but I'm holding on starting a website for a new client and need to get this answered first.

At the moment you can't using Muse's widgets, though you can insert html! So, you could have photo galleries linked to flickr that the client can update to, for example. I'm sure there are other options for slicker slideshows that can be updated client side!
For text, I'm too much of a novice, unless you were wanting a blog style: http://www.muse-themes.com/blogs/news/7257782-creating-a-blog-in-adobe-muse-powered-by-nab ble
Basically, I think you need to find the right html to embed for your purposes

Discover New Parallax Scrolling with Adobe Muse CC | Creative Cloud for Design | Adobe TV

Terry White, Adobe worldwide evangelist, shows how Adobe Muse CC lets you create stunning effects with just a few clicks. Make images and elements move in different directions at different speeds when scrolling — all without writing code.
http://adobe.ly/12yzGv0

There has to be a way to create a Re: Discover New Parallax Scrolling with Adobe Muse CC | Creative Cloud for Design | Adobe TV slideshow that fills browser width. It's not a problem for desktop, but it is a problem for laptops/tablets/phones.
How did the site in the tutorial do it? Terry said it was created in Muse.
Here is a test site that I've been working on - I would love to make it responsive w/o having to create separate tablet/phone sites:

PDF won't open on Mac with Adobe Reader Error message:Adobe Reader could not open

I have Adobe Reader 10.1.3 for Mac, (10.7.3) and am having problems opening pdfs. I get an error message: Adobe Reader could not open file name.pdf because it is either not a supported file type or because the file has been damaged (for example, it was sent as an email attachment and wasn't correctly decoded). The files are not from emails, but are from websites, government sites, professional organizations etc.) Help! Adobe is no help!

Manually download the files to your computer (right-click on the url). When the file is downloaded to your computer do you get the same message when you try to open in Reader through the File->Open menu? What about when you open the file in Mac's Preview application?

How can I get beyond the installation error point 1336 that occurs, after I installed Firefox 3.6.16, when I try to install the latest version update to Adobe Reader?

After installing Firefox 3.6.16, I received an Adobe Reader update alert that there was an update available. I downloaded the update and then began the installation. During the installation, I received the following alert: "Error 1336. There was an error creating a temporary file that is needed to complete this installation. Folder: C:\Program Files \Mozilla Firefox\plugins\. System error code: 5." This prevents me from installing the update -- at every attempt! Is there a user friendly solution?

I am happy to see another person is having this jerky scroll situation with the latest update to Firefox on October 27. I did check my I.E browser and '''THAT BROWSER''' still does the nice smooth scroll....let's get 'er fixed Mozilla! I know you can!

I keep crashing with Adobe Bridge. The data for the crashed thread has this line in it: CFRUNLOOP_IS_CALLING_OUT_TO_AN_OBSERVER_CALLBACK_FUNCTION

CFRUNLOOP_IS_CALLING_OUT_TO_AN_OBSERVER_CALLBACK_FUNCTION
That's in the crashed thread text. Does anyone know what this is about? I actuallly get this same error on three of the four Mac in my staff. It happens consistently when we use Adobe Bridge to browse to a particular folder on my external hard drive. I've copied the contents of that folder to my desktop and I get the same crash.
Thanks,
Peter

Yes, I've been in touch with Adobe for the past two weeks. They only take it so far, then they just ignore me. The Bridge program is not a separate piece of software. It gets loaded when you install either Adobe InDesign or Adobe Illustrator.
Thanks.

I have an HP laptop preloaded with Adobe Premiere Elements 10. For whatever reason Elements will "run" on click, but not even open the load screen or anything and then act like I never tried to open it? whats going on?

I bought my HP laptop in 2012, and it came preloaded with Adobe Premiere and Photoshop Elements 10
It worked fine and I even made a few video edits back in 2012 but for the last year Elements just REFUSES to work properly
I used to be able to open elements to at least the "what do you want to do?" screen
But now It won't even open this...I have no idea why...
If I double click the Elements application my computer slows down, bracing itself to load, and then ....thats it....it reverts to its normal speed and elements just doesn't open...
Any help would be great cause I feel like I've exhuasted all self-troubelshooting options and need to either get help from the forums or take the laptop in before I smash it in rage

Thanks for the reply with additional information.
Recent history for Premiere Elements points to the program having problems when more than 1 video card/graphics card is
being used by the computer on which Premiere Elements is running. This observation may seem contra indicated by the fact
that you say that the program did work well about 2 years ago in the same setup. But other factors may have set in with regard
to drivers, drivers versions, and driver conflicts. But this factor, does need to be ruled in or out.
Can you disable one or the other card to determine the impact of this on your problem?
But, of prime concern with regard to video card/graphics card is the use of a NVIDIA GeForce card with Premiere Elements 10.
Even if your NVIDIA GeForce were the only card, Premiere Elements 10 will not work properly unless the NVIDIA GeForce driver
version is rolled back to about May 2013. This may be one of the major factors here.
a. Device Manager/Display Adapters and find out Driver Version and Driver Date
b. Read the background information for the Premiere Elements 10/NVIDIA GeForce issue
ATR Premiere Elements Troubleshooting: PE10: NVIDIA Video Card Driver Roll Back
Also see the Announcement at the top of this forum regarding the matter - also with full details of the situation and how to fix with the
driver version roll back.
Please review and consider and then we can decide what next.
Thanks.
ATR
Add On...This NVIDIA GeForce situation is specific for Premiere Elements 10. You should not expect to see the problem for
later versions of Premiere Elements.

Problem with adobe pdf viewer plug-in for safari

I recently updated from adobe reader 8 to adobe reader 9 and now pdf documents that I view on Safari won't open. I get this message that says 'adobepdfviewer does not recognize a compatible adobe acrobat or adobe reader program' This is really strange because I have both Adobe reader 9 and Adobe acrobat installed. If you have any advice or solutions it would be much appreciated.

Personally, I like to open PDFs that I have saved to my hard drive in Adobe Reader, because I find it quicker, especially with PDF files that have many pages. I also find the resizing controls and search functions more useful in Adobe Reader. At the same time, for quick looks when clicking on web links, I don't mind letting Safari open some PDF files. So having both capabilities is important to me.
one000mph, your problem might be in the Adobe Reader / Acrobat preferences settings. It's perfectly possible to have these programs installed and still view PDFs in Safari, so there really isn't a need to delete either or both of the programs.
If you still have one or the other of those installed, check its preferences "Internet" setting where it says, "Display PDF in browser using ..." I have that set to "Adobe Reader 8.1.2" and its working nicely. If you don't have Adobe Reader installed any longer you might have different options there than I have. Try the different settings there and see if changing them solves the problem.

Adobe Reader error-Administrator has Set Policies to prevent this install

When installing Adobe Reader i receive the following error
message-Administrator has Set Policies to prevent this
installation. this is the first time ever this has happened.I
normally just follow the update prompts and no problems. I have
windows xp home ed.Can anyone help please.
John

Hi John
I love administrators as much as the next guy, not!!
Seriously though, this is a community forum for Captivate, another
Adobe product, so I don't think we can be of much use here.
However, I would suggest talking to your systems administrator to
change your settings to allow the Reader update as this can only be
done on your side and not from anywhere else.
Cheers

Full screen auto-hide feature does not work with Adobe Acrobat Reader add-on 11.0.0.379 in Firefox 17.01.

"Full screen" menu item and its keyboard short cut F11 stop working with Acrobat Reader. The Firefox top edge border does not hide once you have moved around in the Acrobat document. Therefore it is not possible to display PDF documents in a true full screen mode within Firefox. The auto-hide full screen mode works nicely with other Firefox windows, so apparently the Acrobat Reader add-on breaks the feature. Windows 7 64-bit.

From the JS API Reference of the print method:
Non-interactive printing can only be executed during batch, console, and menu
events.
Outside of batch, console, and menu events, the values of bUI and of interactive are ignored
and a print dialog box will always be presented.

I am running CS4 and want to run the trial version of CC to see if I want to begin a contract with Adobe. Do I have to uninstall CS4 before installing CC?

I have a lot of CS4 files on my system and don't want to loose them if I upgrade to CC trail version. I am NOT a heavy user but use it consistently through out the year to do promotion for my small business. If I decide NOT to continue with CC can I get bact to CS4?

Hi J-marshall,
You can have 2 versions installed aside of each other. Bot programs have their own folders. The files from CS4 can be read by the CC version. The other way around does not work for most file types. For example InDesign. To save for an older version is documented for most programs.
After CC trial / subscription removal the CS4 will stay on the system and works without issue.

Are there issues with Adobe Flash Player plug-in for Safari?

Is it OK to install the Flash Player or will it cause me greef as the pdf reader did?

If you want to view Flash content, you have no choice.
You can control your exposure to Flash by installing the ClickToFlash or ClickToPlugin Safari extension.

I have PS CS4 Extended. When I start it I get a message that I need to reinstall it. I search Adobes and found a download for Mac which I installed and when started entered myserial number. It was not accepted. Any tips?

The file downloaded is named NikCollection_1.2.8_0511-456.dmg. The installation went ok but when I start photoshop i am prompted for my serial number,
I have it on the back on my CD case (but my CD is not working any more) and it is the same number as it registered at my Adobe account.
Photoshop starts ok but after a while it prompts for my serial number. When I enter my serial number it is not accepted.
Grateful for any tips.

Did you go here for the installer? Download CS4 products
When you enter the serial number see that you get the serial number correct, in fact copy and paste from the one in your account.
You should see a green checkmark.
If all goes well you should be allowed to install and activate. If activation fails, contact Customer Care by phone or Chat.
