Captivate should be a part of Creative Cloud

Captivate should be a part of Creative Cloud. You are forcing me to a third party vendor.

I agree, though I suppose they look at the applications with the largest number of users, and most users of CC might not value Captivate.
I subscribe to Creative Cloud, so I get a lot of powerful applications, but it would be nice if it included Captivate.

Is there a chance that Captivate will be bundled into the Creative Cloud Suite?

Is there a chance that Captivate will be bundled into the Creative Cloud Suite?

When I'm asking about this in some webinars, I get mostly two answers: that is another business unit (Captivate and Presenter), or those applications are not considered for 'creative' people. The last reason always makes me laughing but is typical of the way 'big' Adobe is looking down on 'small' Adobe.
Rod, Framemaker and RoboHelp are not in the Creative Cloud neither. Both have a bit limited, but very specialized user base. And really, Framemaker has features that InDesign (which is much more promoted by Adobe) has not yet. It does publish directly to different ebook formats, which is still a very cumbersome work flow in InDesign who is the 'flagship', and where defenders mostly tell that FM is EOL. RH has even more formats available as output. Maybe Captiv8r, respected RH expert, can offer more info. Technical Communication Suite is the only suite that remains for the moment, version 5 was released two weeks ago.
Another possible reason, which doesn't apply to Captivate: Presenter, RoboHelp, Framemaker are not available for Mac (Presenter Express is only a small part of Presenter).
It is also my opinion, that at least Captivate belongs in the CC and that it 'could' extend the user base, but I'm a very bad marketing person, other people do know better.

Is Story Plus a part of Creative Cloud or not?

Everything I read on Adobe.com indicates Story Plus is included in Creative Cloud. However, when I try to access it from CreativeCloud.com I get Story Free. I started a chat with Adobe, and I was told I need to subscribe separately for Story Plus.
Which is it? And if it is included, how do I fix my problem and get access to Story Plus?
Thanks.

Hi Sandeep. I removed the desktop version of Story. However, I can't recall where the dmg file for it might be. (I did download one of the first beta versions and only continued to update ever since by opening the Software and Updating when prompted.) I went to the site (my creative cloud account at creative.adobe.com) but I can't seem to find anywhere to download the desktop app again. The story icon only provides a "learn more" link. My application manager does not include Story. I will send you an email with my email ID.
By the way, there has been a new development. My whole account is now expiring everyday. Everytime I open any software it asks me to renew, which I do and seems to work fine (It says something along the lines of "Subscription Renewed!" so I assume that means it works), but it only lasts until I close the app or open another adobe software. At which point it expires again and I must renew. I have been renewing three or four times a day for the last two days.
Also, the email above appears as DL-AdobeStory-support<at>adobe<dot>com
Seemed odd so I'll ask. Is your email [email protected]? or just [email protected]? Or maybe [email protected]?
I sent an email with my info to all of the above including [email protected] I'm sorry if I error on the side of exesiveness, but I really would like to resolve the issue.
Also, I received an inmediate reply from [email protected] saying:
You have replied to an automated e-mail system that is unable to respond to individual questions or comments.
If you have further questions, visit the Adobe Support website at www.adobe.com/support/.
This does not inspire peace of mind. I hope this is just one of all the addresses I sent it to. Anyways,
thanks for looking into it.

How long should it take to install creative cloud?

i started to install it this morning and it was sitting for 6 hrs and it still hasn't finished or gotten half way. my internet is a little slow right now but i don't know if it should take this long?

Terminate the process, run the cleaner tool and start over. If the issue persists, you will have to provide proper system info and other technical details so people can help you.

Captivate no longer in Creative Cloud? Disk install not launching...

I have been using Captivate as part of Creative Cloud, which I have a subscription to. Today, when I went to launch it, it was no longer part of Creative Cloud. So that's one problem, I don't know where it went. When I tried to launch it, I just got an error message of a yellow triangle with an exclamation point in it and an OK button. When the OK button is clicked, the launch quits.
I have an install disk copy of Captivate 6, so I installed it from the disk (twice actually). When I try to launch it from the installed app on my computer I still get the same error message with a yellow triangle and an exclamation point and an OK button. When the OK button is clicked, the app launch quits. So I am not sure where to go from here.
I am on an iMac running Mavericks, (OS 10.9).
Thanks for any help.
Mitch

And just for other users: Captivate has never been in the Creative Cloud at all, and is not for the moment. This means that even though you have a subscription to the CC, you will still have to buy another subscription for Captivate.
Wanted to make this clear, because some users could be confused.

Photoshop Elements should be bundled in Creative Cloud?

I am a Creative Cloud subscriber, so I have access the the likes of Photoshop and Lightroom. I am a photographer and I also do communication design and build dynamic websites as Boldset.
My website customers, in using a website CMS (say Wordpress or Drupal) that we would have built for them, often need to be able to correct and prepare images for the web, and for this Photoshop Elements is useful. So the only reason that I download a trial copy of Photoshop Elements is to learn how to use it (easy), so that I can teach my customers how to use it, so that they ultimately buy and use this themselves.
Why would Adobe want to charge a customer for having Photoshop Elements if that customer already has Photoshop? This is my question.
Greetings from Paris
David Millner

They are different programs with different abilities. Yes, you can probably replicate some of the Guided Edit stuff from Photoshop Elements in Photoshop, but you would need to be more than just a novice.
I hope that they don't make Photoshop Elements part of Creative Cloud. If they do, I will no longer upgrade, and they will lose a paying customer.

I paid for "Creative Cloud Photography plan", but in my account i still have Free plan. What should i do?

A few questions before I buy a new iMac/Mac mini and sign up for Creative Cloud.

Hello Everyone,
I am looking to purchase a new Apple computer and sign up for Creative Cloud within the next week and I have a few questions that should be answered before I proceed.
My wife and I own a business and we will be using the CS6 apps to create brochures, Constant Contact mailings, product package inserts, edit product photography for print and web use, and short HD how-to videos. We are not graphics professionals or power users and wont be doing anything too complicated.
Any help and answers will be greatly appreciated.
I will start with the hardware questions first:
I am trying to decide between the iMac and the Mac mini.
The iMac is a 2.7Ghz Quad-core Intel core i5 and comes with 4GB of memory that is expandable to 16GB, which I will do for sure. It comes with a Radeon HD 6770M graphics card with 512MB of GDDR5 memory(not upgradable), and a 1TB HDD that runs at 7200RPM. This unit meets the specs required.
The 2.5Ghz Mac Mini comes with 4GB of memory that is expandable to 8GB, I will also do this. It has a Radeon HD 6630M graphics card with 256MB of GDDR5 memory(not upgradable), and a 500GB HDD that runs at 5400RPM. This unit meets all the spec(I think) except for the speed of the HDD.
Question: Will the mini run the software without too much of an issue considering the speed of the HDD?
Question: Will the iMac run the software significantly better to justify the price difference?
I already have 1 mini(purchased 4 months ago, with the same specs listed above) and will be purchasing a second computer for my wifes desk. If the mini will run CS6 fine, that is great and we can save a few bucks. If my mini will not run CS6 well, I will get the iMac for her desk as she will be doing the bulk of the work in that regard anyway.
Now a couple of software questions.
After reading hundreds of reviews and forum posts over the last few days I have seen many people having this or that issue. It seems to me that most of the issues are because of upgrades from Lion to Mountian Lion after installing CS6 first or trying to open CS3,4,5 files in CS6.
If you want to know what issues have me concerned take a look at just this one forum:
http://blogs.adobe.com/jnack/2012/07/adobe-cs-apps-mountain-lion-no-known-issues.html
Similar issues are discussed in the Apple forums as well as many other places around the web.
I am not a computer professional but I know enough to maintain my systems and keep them running smoothly.
We do not have any Adobe software installed on my mini and will not be opening any files from previous versions of Adobe product in the new CS6 software. These will be a clean installs on pristine systems running fully updated Mountian Lion OS's on both machines and creating new files from scratch.
Question: Should I be expecting any issues like the ones I have read in the forums and blogs or are these just the normal things that happen when upgrading to new software with multiple hardware configurations?
My feeling is that we will not be having too much of a problem due to the clean installs and no files from previous versions.
Next up, the Creative Cloud(CC) FAQ states that you can install on 2 machines but can't open stuff at the same time.
Question: Does this mean we can't be using any CS6 apps at the same time or just not using the same app at the same time?
Example: PS and PS on both machines at same time = No, PS on one and Dreamweaver on the other at the same time=Yes?
The CC FAQ page says Adobe will add Lightroom 4 later in 2012 while the main CC page lists it as available now.
Question: Which is true?
My mini is registered to me, with my name, iTunes account, Apple ID etc.
Question: Do I need to do the initial set-up of the new machine with all my information to ensure the CS6 suite works on both machines? Do the computers need to be registered(as far as Apple configuration is concerned) to same person for them to work on one CC account or can I install CS6 on any 2 machines regardless of how they were initially set-up?
This may seem like a silly question but I want to avoid any problems before they happen.
Well, those are all of my questions at the moment. To anyone who made it this far in my looooong post, Thank You so much for your time. I appreciate your expertise and knowledge and hope that you can help me make this decision.
Cheers,
Alex Bogdan

Alex,
I'll try and answer your questions as best I can.
Qn 1 Which Mac.
Ans:- As I understand it both units will run Adobe CS6.
          Which one really depends on what you wand from CS6. If you are looking for high end demand and performance, then I would go for the IMac
          Your Specs for the Imac are right. However if you buy your IMac straight from Apple there are even higher specs.
          You can get:-
                              3.4 GHz i7 processor rather than the i5
                               2GB video card as opposed to a 1Gb video card.
                               Of course such a model will cost you more.
          In the end it is needs compared with money to spend. That is only a decision you cam make.
Q2:- Will the higher cost for the Imac justify copst.
Ans:- Again it depends on what demands you intend to make on the hardware and software.
          But I note you have a business and if that businees expects to high demand and high speedy performance then I suspect the Imac would be more able to provide your needs.
          Again only you will know the answer to that.
Q3:- Questions about CS6 reliability
Ans:- I have been with Adobe for way over 10 years.
         Speaking, only for myself, it is the most reliable software on the market.
          It is true that if you look down this form, like any other and I am thinking about the Apple discussions forum, you will find numerous instances of problems.
          Again this is only my opinion, but although all these problems are real for the individuals:-
          First it is not clear why they have the problem e.g. what have they done or not done.
          Second, they are in the minority of the total users using the hardware / software.
          The only problem I am aware of with CS6 is Acrobat X. I understand it has been sorted Adobe, however it cost me so much work I have removed it from my system and reverted to Acrobat 9
          So what I am saying is that there are only two comapnies I rely 100% on: They are Adobe and Apple.
         So if you are happy with my opinion I would not worry about Adobe CS6
Qn 4:- CS6 0n 2 machines.
Ans:- Yes you will not be able to run the same program similtaneosly.
           I believe, if it is important that you do run the same program together, that you can acquire a further licience from Adobe to do that.
           You would need to contact Adobe about that.
Qn 5:- Lightroom 4
Ans:- Lightroom is now available as part of Creative Cloud.
Qn 6:- Set up for individual machines
Ans:- I do not believe you do. Once you have set up your Creative Cloud account you go to the apps site and download the apps for each machine.
          Each machine downloads the apps and your machine and the apps are registered by Adobe.
         Here is something that you may want to know:-
          Because I was so unhappy loosing all the Acrobat data with Acrobat X I ended up deleting Acrobat X
          However as far as Creative Cloud is concered Acrobat X is still on my machine.
          It is not a problem for me because I am happy with Acrobat 9, it fullfils my needs and has not crashed and lost me all my bookmarks.
          However here is the point:-
          Adobe, when there was a problem with Acrobat X requested that no-one deletes the application.
         Though I do not know for certain I believe registration of the apps you have with Creative Cloud are registered with Creative Cloud in their database. Therefore were you to delete an app, it will still be registered with Creative Cloud and you will not be able to download a further copy even though the app is no longer on your    machine.
          Therefore it maybe not a good idea to delete an app when you no longer have a use for it. If you want it back I suspect you will have to contact Adobe Support
Personal Comment:-
          It is true many unfortunately have had all sorts of problems, including me with Acrobat X.
          That said, Creative Cloud in my view has been a major advance in how Adobe delivers software. I have no regrets with signing up to Creative Cloud and I expect to remain with it.
Hope all of that goes some way to answering your questions.
