Can I keep FrameMaker 9 installed and install Tech Comm Suite 4?

I'm asking because Adobe Application Manager keeps failing to install its own update - and this is the only thing I can think of (although I have had the software on the system for a few months now and it's only just started to fail).
Has some patch in the meantime caused the problem?
Have downloaded some patches manually (managed to download and install the patch for FrameMaker 11) but some try to launch Application Manager when installing anyway.
If I need to uninstall, do I need to uninstall EVERYTHING? (Can't find Application Manager in Control Panel > Programs and Features... do I need to uninstall the suite?)
Do I permanently de-activate if going to reinstall on the SAME machine?
Getting confused because a lot of the help for Application Manager refers to a Creative Suite clean-up tool. Should I run this after uninstalling?
I don't have Creative Suite, but do have InDesign CS5.
Running Windows 7 Professional, 32-bit, with 3 GB RAM.
Thanks in advance,
Alison

Reinstalls on the same system don't require deactivation. I'm not sure how the techcomm suite products are strung together, but there may be some sense in running the Creative Suite Cleaner Tool. It won't remove anything, just get rid of blocakges and version conflicts in the installer database. After that you should be able to reinstall your TCS 4. FM 9 should not be affected by any of this, since separate major versions install separately. But I really can't tell you 100%. There may be specifics with FM and some otehr TCS specific stuff that I'm not aware of.

    Can i use this download and install on multiple computers?

    I assume you're talking about the Lion installer?  If so, yes, you're allowed to use it on any machines authorized with your Apple ID (which I believe means a maximum of five machines).  This is, of course, meant for family use...  I'm not sure about business use, but I'd suspect you need one copy per machine at a business.  If you're in that situation, you may want to wait for the $69 Lion flash drive Apple will be releasing next month sometime, as that won't be tied to an Apple ID.  But check with Apple to be sure on that.

  • Remote location, 7kbs d'load speed, 10 days to d'load Lion, only software updates are through the App Store. Why can't we d'load and install outside the Cloud anymore? Some of us can't use the cloud.

    Remote location, 7kbs d'load speed, 10 days to d'load Lion, only software updates are through the App Store. Why can't we d'load and install outside the Cloud anymore? Some of us can't use the cloud and never will be able to.

    That is true - I apologize for not being specific - what I was mainly referring to is iLife applications. I have a notice on the App Store that says 3 apps need updates, I look at the apps and they are huge so since my connection is so slow I use my work connection and d'load the files from support to my Windows machine and carry them home, once d'loaded my MacAir states it cannot install, the update must come from the App Store.
    I do the same thing for large Leopard and Lion files and I can install them without error, it is just the App Store files that the system stops.

  • How can I uninstall iDVD '08 and install iDVD '06?

    There's a reported bug among iDVD '08 users where burning
    large projects are resulting in audio synch problems near the
    end of the burned DVD.
    In other words, the audio slowly goes out of synch towards the
    end of burned projects.
    This is a problem inherent with 'DVD '08.
    I tried uninstalling iDVD '08 and replacing with '06 but it doesn't
    work. You try that and iDVD will not launch at all.
    Even tried to partition my drive and install iLife '06 to the partition
    but the system will not let me.
    Anyone have a solution how to completely uninstall iLife '08
    components and install iLife '06?
    Thanks

    I upgraded to iLife 08 from 06 (bad move). I couldn't install iMovie because my Mac is too old (must be Intel-based or comparable). iDVD didn't work--the document window was always black, even with a theme selected. The Virtual Band function in GarageBand did nothing whatsoever. I trashed the '08 applications, moved all Preferences files to my desktop, reinstalled iLife '06. Now, iDVD won't launch--just flashes the menu bar and exits back to the Finder. So, I have several DVD projects on my system that I cannot finish because I cannot reinstall iLife '06 (like the originator of this problem, "How can I uninstall iDVD '08 and install iDVD '06?") I hope someone has an answer as this is frustrating and costly to my small business.

  • How can I get Flash Player and install it?

    I29/Aug/2010 17:37
    TO: Adobe Forum
    I am running Windows XP Home, and using Mozilla Firefox 3.6.8 as my browser.
    When I go to download and install the latest version of Flash Player, the ONLY option I get is to quit. In other words, I cannot download and install Flash Player. This even occurs at Adobe's own website.
    How can I get Flash Player and install it?
    Thank you in advance.
    Sincerely,
    Barry Karas

    First, you can manually download the installer here: http://get.adobe.com/flashplayer/otherversions/
    Second. On both my Mac (OS 10.6.4) and My PC (Vista Home Premium) I have had nothing but trouble with Firefox 3.6.8 and Flash player, Flash apps and Flash sites that require access to web cam or microphone or both.
    The last time Flash Player worked well with Firefox was 3.6.4, but I uninstalled 3.6.8 and went all the way back to 3.0 on both systems.
    Just a heads up. If you download the manual installer, and it still doesn't work, it ISN'T the Flash Player. It's Firefox. IE, Opera and Safari all work with it.
    Go to oldversion.com and get an older build of Firefox, uninstall 3.6.8, install the older one, go to Tools, and Options and turn off automatic checking for updates, so it doesn't try to take you back the the 3.6.8 "busted @$$ joint" that doesn't work worth poo.
    Maybe when they release 3.7, Firefox will have their act together with Adobe and Flash Player.

    => is this a different iCloud account for each device?  I thought iCloud account ID had to match some iTunes account ID, for which we only have one i Tunes account?
    You need to set up a separate iCloud account for each person that does not want to share their iCloud data.  If you share an iCloud account with someone, any data you both sync with the shared account is merged, and you end up with each other's data on your device(s).  If, for example, you owned two devices and someone else in the family also owned two devices, you would both want your own iCloud accounts, and you would each set up your personal iCloud account on the two devices you own.  In other words, you want a separate iCloud account for each person to be used on the devices they own.  Each iCloud account has to have a separate Apple ID.  The ID does not need to be the same as the ID used for iTunes.  Many families perfer to share the same iTunes account/ID, but maintain separate iCloud accounts with different IDs to keep there data separated.
    ColleenMcG wrote:

    => what ID, iTunes?  So I can have a separate iCloud account "only" ID which I also assume must be some [valid] email address?  The children currently do not have email accounts anywhere.
    Yes, I was referring to the iTunes ID not needing to be the same as the ID used for iCloud.  In order to set up an Apple ID your children will need to have a valid email address that can be verified by Apple.  Apple requires this so they have a way of contacting the owner if there is a problem with the account, such as when you may need to reset the password on the account.  When you set up the ID, Apple will send a verification email to this email account and you will need to click on the verificating link in the email to complete the process.  If they don't currently have an email account you can just set one up with gmail or another free email hosting service.  They don't have to use the account but you will need it to set up the ID.

  • My dad and I shared an iTunes account for years and now I'm getting my own, how can I keep my music and apps?

    My dad and I shared an iTunes account for years and now I'm getting my own, how can I keep my music and apps? I'm worried that I won't have any ability to access my apps and music. We have our itunes separated on different computers, so I have all of my stuff separated from his, but I don't know how to put them in my new account.

    Well... there really isn't any fully legal way to do this.
    The simplest solution is to continue sharing the same iTunes purchasing acct, but create different ones for iCloud (assuming that's why you needed to do the split).
    Slightly less kosher: Burn AUDIO CD's, of the music then copy them back to your new account.
    BE sure to do this from original acount, To keep the music info, you'll  copy over the CDDB file (in prefs somewhere) - since this maintains the data of CDs that you've had in library.... (it isn't carried over onto a user created CD.)

  • I am migrating from Tech Comm Suite, eLearning Suite, and Captivate licenses to a subscription model.  I need help.

    I already have an Adobe account that is associated with my work email.  We had purchased the Tech Comm Suite for Captivate and the eLearning Suite.  Adobe is not offering Captivate 8 as part of an eLearning Suite, but I DO need to upgrade.  I also would like to keep the other apps in both suites up to date, so we want to purchase a Creative Cloud subscription.  I don't have a clue where the serial numbers are kept, and as far as I know, the serial numbers don't show up anywhere in the app anymore.  Additionally, I cannot enter the billing information for my subscription because we have to make the purchase on a p-card owned by our administrative assistant.  So what I want to know is how to purchase a subscription for both Creative Cloud and Captivate that is associated with my email account without giving my login information to the administrative assistant?
    Is it possible to purchase a team subscription and add my email address to the team?  I have to give explicit instructions to our admin.

  • Upgrading: RH7 separate product or Tech Comms Suite

    Hi Everybody,
    I'm at a point now where I'm looking to upgrade to RH7. I
    also need a copy of Captivate due to some deadlines that have been
    set against me. These are the main two products I'm looking at.
    What I really want to know is who, on this forum, have upgraded to
    RH7 as a separate product and who has delved in to the Tech Comms
    Suite? Are there any gotchas?
    I already have RH X5, which was an upgrade of an upgrade, and
    Framemaker 6.0, which I haven't actually had a reason to use since
    I joined the company. However, I was wondering if it's worth
    upgrading to the Tech Comms Suite based on the Framemaker 6.0
    product. What I can't find on the website is how does this upgrade
    work? Would I receive a brand new version of RH7, CP3 and Acrobat3D
    and an upgrade version of Framemaker 8?
    The offer of all these products in one suite seems too good
    to be true. What happens when just one product is upgraded? What
    happens if I then decide that I have no use whatsoever for
    Framemaker? Are all the products in the Tech Comms Suite full and
    proper versions? So many questions... I searched for answers but
    couldn't find any other posts relating to this, so if there is a
    discussion going on elsewhere then please do point me in that
    direction.
    Can anyone help me make my mind up? Thanks!

    Unless you have some pre-existing experience with Captivate,
    you may find it hard to get all the way up to speed on that product
    quickly. You may want to look at subscribing to Lynda.com for a
    month and taking their on-line course. It's Captivate 2, but I'm
    still finding it useful (as a total Captivate newbie).

    As with RandiWrite, I upgraded from RoboHelp X5 (alone; I
    didn't have any of the other products in the suite though I have
    CS3 including Acrobat Pro) to TCS. I called Adobe Support for
    confirmation that I was eligible before buying the product, and
    they advised that I was. I had no trouble at all installing the
    suite.

    Essentially you just get a full install package with the
    whole TC suite on it. I opted for the download from the Adobe store
    rather than the boxed version since it was slightly cheaper and I
    was impatient to get it. (Also, they don't deliver to PO Boxes
    which is the only way I could get delivery since I'm seldom in one
    place long enough for a courier to find me.) I think that the
    install procedure checks that you have the existing programs on
    there, then away it goes and puts the new ones on as well. It
    didn't remove X5 on my computer; I could do that myself without,
    I'm pretty sure, any untoward effect on version 7; I just haven't
    bothered yet.
    I seem to recall that when I upgraded to PhotoShop CS3 I had
    CS2 on one of my two computers but not the other. (I think it was
    on my notebook but not my desktop.) I was able to install CS3 on
    the desktop without having to install CS2 first; as I recall, it
    asked me for some kind of identifying code first to verify that I
    was already a licenced owner of CS2. (Sorry to be so vague, it was
    a while ago now.) My point is that Adobe has its act together (in
    my experience) at letting you do upgrades from older packages.
    HOWEVER, RoboHelp X5wasn't an Adobe product at the time and doing
    the upgrade without having the X5 package installed may be more
    problematic. This is academic in your case since it IS installed.

    quote:

    You pay less, but you get less. But that's ONLY if it's ONE
    product. Indeed, I found that it would have been more expensive (in
    Australia at least, I don't know about the UK) for me to upgrade to
    RH7 and buy Captivate than it was to upgrade to TCS. It's not dumb
    marketing on Adobe's part, it's actually rather smart. By giving
    you that value, it gets you to use more of their products (and lets
    face it, while no software is perfect Adobe's is pretty good), and
    consequently hooks you in for future versions. I know that RH has
    imperfections, but I do love it. Same with Acrobat Pro.
    quote:
    What happens if I then decide that I have no use whatsoever
    for Framemaker?
    I don't, but I don't care. I may play with it at some point,
    but the short version is that I still got the products that I DID
    want (RH7 and Captivate) cheaper than buying them separately and if
    anything else wants to come along for the ride I'll find it a room
    on my hard disk.
    quote:

  • Tech Comms Suite (upgrade version)

    Hi,
    I am now the proud owner of the Tech Comms Suite upgrade
    version 1.3. Reading the yellow slip of paper accompanying the box,
    it says 'Adobe recommends that you uninstall any previous version
    of Technical Communications Suite or any component of the Technical
    Communications Suite... before you install Technical Communications
    Suite 1.3'.
    My dumb question is: if you uninstall FM or RH software, how
    does the software know which is your upgrade product?
    I was planning on installing the Tech Comms Suite on another
    computer temporarily, until I get used to the new UI, and thought I
    would have to uninstall FM (seeing as I want to continue using RH
    on my own pooty) and install it onto the same PC where I want to
    install TCS. However, now it seems I don't have to. Is it just a
    case of entering a qualifying serial number somewhere in the
    upgrade installation? Has anyone here upgraded to TCS and can shed
    some light please?
    Many Thanks,
    Liz

    Thanks Peter and Vivek for your replies. When I bought it
    from the Adobe website I chose the upgrade from one product option
    (not upgrading from TCS v1.0) and I did indeed I receive two disks.
    The install trundles through. At the end it asks if I want to
    open an application. Of course I do because I want to play, so I
    click on the relevant radio button that selects an application to
    open, then click on OK, or Next, or whatever.(sorry cannot remember
    actual name of button!).
    I then get the screen where you choose to open the trial
    version or enter the serial number. So I select the relevant radio
    button and enter the serial number from the TCS box. I then click
    OK, or Next, or whatever and then I get a popup error saying that
    my serial number is not valid.
    Technical Support have confirmed that it is a valid serial
    number. I searched the forum and found there may be conflict with
    Acrobat, but the computer where I installed the TCS did not have
    Acrobat installed prior to installing TCS. I get the error message
    when I enter the serial number for RH, FM and CP. I can open
    Acrobat (as that didn't ask for the serial number) but I haven't
    tried opening or creating a PDF file.
    In other words, I don't get as far as entering the qualifying
    serial number.
    Does anyone have any ideas for me to try please? Has anyone
    else experienced this when they upgraded from one product (not TCS
    v1.0)?
    Thanks for your help

  • Does the Tech Comm Suite work differently/better then adding separate components?

    I use CS4 everyday which includes Illustrator,  Photoshop extended, InDesign, Dreamwearver and Flash. I now have a need to convert FrameMaker files into HTML and to create Help files using RoboHelp and Captivate. Do I need to get the Tech Comm Suite 2 or can I just add the RoboHelp and Captivate components and upgrade my FrameMaker to version 9? What works better and what is more cost efffective?

    Thanks Jeff for the information about importing not linking outside of the suite. I do want to link to the FrameMaker source file.
    I will have to check with Sales at Abode to see about the intregration with or upgrade price available for adding Tech Comm suite.

  • Any idea when Tech Comm Suite will release?

    I've got a print and help project starting in November, and
    I'd love to start it using FrameMaker and Robohelp 7 from Adobe
    Tech Comm Suite. My other option is RoboHelp for Word, of an
    unknown vintage. So just when is pretty important to me. Anyone
    heard any scuttlebutt? -
    Thanks!

    The official release date is probably known only to a few
    select people in Adobe. All we can add is that the release in due
    shortly. It is a case of watch this space. I'm sure it can't be far
    off. They are already taking pre-orders.
