Community Help program  ignores new PSE 12 installation

after uninstalling PSE 10 I installed PSE 12 & Premiere Elements 12 on my notebook (WIN 8.1)
for offline use the Adobe Community Help offers only the contents for PSE 10 and Premiere Elements 10 (was never installed!!)
as dowloadable files, the new insttalled 12 versions seem to be ignored.
Is it poosible to update the community help software or should I  try to un- and reinstall it?

(sorry if my question was unclear, english is not my native language)
my problem is NOT downloading or opening any pdfs,
Then using the help function in pse without permanent  internet connection, it is possible to choose usage of  "only local contents" in the pre-settings for help. When the computer is online, the selected contents will be downloaded and updated automaticly by the community help tool. 
It works, but the problem is that the adobe community help tool  only offers the WRONG contents (old pse version).  So I think about reinstalling the help-tool

  • Exporting Categories and Tag Associations to New PSE Installations

    Hi,
    Traditionally I have always organised my photos in folders.  Although there are definite limitations with this method I can move my photos to different PC's without loss of the organisation.  Since I am a software developer I oftern rebuild my PC and try out new windows OS's.
    Last night I played around with Catagorizing and Taging photos.  Due to the number of photos I have it will be a huge task to get them all done.  With that thought I do not want to put 'all that time in' if I cannot migrate the catagory and tag associations with the photos to a new installation of PSE.
    I have been unable to see how this is done in the literature.  Any help would be much appreciated.
    Geordie

    PSE versions 5 and earlier were pretty good about not corrupting their database files.  I think PSE versions 6 and later are even better -- they are built using a very well-regarded database technology called SQLite that is used by many commercial products, include Apple's OS X.  I've seen no reports of users losing their catalog information.
    However, the PSE application does have bugs which in some circumstances writes incorrect information into the catalog database files (e.g. the wrong drive where your photos are stored).    Also, since PSE 6 Adobe has provided very poor support for upgrading to new versions of PSE, and some people have had a lot of trouble upgrading and/or have lost information when they upgrade.  Strictly speaking, this is not "database corruption" as engineers would use the term, though many users would probably called it "corruption".

  • New update for Community Help application - version 3.5 now available

    Hi: just a quick announcement that the engineering team has released version 3.5 of the Adobe Community Help application.  This update is a very significant release that directly addresses a lot of the feedback that we’ve been hearing from the community.  The most significant changes include:
    Feature
    Benefit
    1.
    Tabbed Browsing
    Ability to open multiple pages   from multiple sources simultaneously
    2.
    Favorites/Bookmarks
    Ability to bookmark your   favorite URLs; note: we prepopulate a set of suggested bookmarks for you   based on the products you have installed.  Users can of course   add/edit/delete any bookmarks that they choose and can organize them via   folders, etc.
    3.
    Search/Browse History
    Ability to view previous pages   browsed or search results (including previously used filter options, search   collections, online/offline search status, refinements, and more).
    4.
    Flash Platform ASLR
    Ensures developers  only   have to download one copy of the ASR and not separate, multiple copies for   Flash vs. Flex, etc. 
    5.
    Revamped local content   download workflow
    The entire local content   download workflow has been reworked!  We have removed the pop-up dialog   box and moved the “content update” notification to the footer of the app as   well as the homescreen.  This ensures an uninterrupted workflow for   users who simply want to access content first and foremost.
    6.
    Performance improvements
    The team has worked especially   hard on improving the start-up and browsing performance by consolidating a   number of disparate server calls into a single initialization service that is   only performed at launch.  This enables us to cache a number of assets   and reduce network calls/dependencies.
    7.
    Silent application updates
    Similar to the changes in the   local content download experience, we have also revamped the update   experience for the application itself!  Going forward, app updates will   be downloaded in the background without interruption to the user workflow.
    8.
    Set-and-forget search options
    Search options are now sticky   from session to session – for example, if you check the Search Adobe   Reference check box for  Photoshop, the CHC will remember those options   the next time you open the app. This applies to refinements too.
    9.
    Much more!!
    Minimize to sytem tray (for PC   users only); upgrade to Flex 4.1 and AIR 2.5; and many, many other   enhancements, fixes, etc.!
    Note: many of these features were part of our earlier 3.4 release – as some of you know, we had to pull down that release shortly after launch due to server/hardware issues. So only a few users were able to update at the time.  CHC 3.5 is now a general release that will support all users and has been extensively tested to ensure robust performance and stability.
    To update your app, simply open the Community Help application from your hard disc or visit our download page on adobe.com:

  • Help.  I lost my installation CD for my for my new AirPort Extreme 802.11n

    Need help. I lost my installation CD for my for my new AirPort Extreme (802.11n). How can I download the new Admin Utility?

    Hi Gr8Tucano,
    Currently the Airport Utility does not appear to be on the downloads page, you can call Apple support line to receive a replacement disk, but be aware there may be a charge for replacement CDs.

  • Ichat won't open since new hd installation? help.

    ichat won't open since new hd installation? help.
    since installing a bigger hd my ichat won't open. the shortcut is still there and when i click it it bounces in the toolbar a few times then dissapears. i have tried to delete and re-install but i cannot delete it.
    im on osx version 10.8.3, on a macbook pro.
    please help, thank you

    HI,
    I feel there is slightly more to this story.
    Mountain Lion (OS X 10.8.x) does not have iChat.
    It has Messages which is iChat+ as it has had iMessages added to it.
    (I think that a Mountain Lion Upgrade is part of the picture.)
    This suggests you Changed the Hard Drive and either Installed or cloned the OS on to the (new) Drive.
    At this point you may have migrated your Mac User Account from  different computer or the old Hard Drive.
    If you were Migrating apps from an old drive or computer then it is technically possible to "install" iChat in the Applications Folder but it will not work.
    Each version of iChat has to "Match" the OS it is on.
    Broadly speaking that is iChat 4 is in Leopard (OS X 10.5.x) and iChat 5 is in Snow Leopard (OS X 10.6.x)
    In fact it goes deeper than this in that incremental updates in the OS include (sometimes) the updates to iChat.
    This means that by OS X 10.5.8 at the end of the Leopard Updates iChat is at version 4.0.9
    Snow Leopard gets to OS X 10.6.8 but iChat 5 only gets to version 5.0.3 at this point.
    Open your Applications Folder.
    Does this contain iChat, Messages or in fact Both ?
    If you then highlight and then use CMD and i keys (Get Info)  what version information do the app(s) display ?
    The Messages App should not be put inside any other folder.
    I have seen where people have created "Messaging" folders putting MSN, Skype and Messages or iChat in the same folder to "tidy" the Applications folder.
    This can mess up updates.
    In fact if you have done this the DOCK item may point to something that did not get Updated to Mountain Lion.

  • Community help search field ignores help files by default.

    I tried to search for "Blending mode", then "Option Bar" in the main support page, with Community help targeted, and I don't get any hot from the help files. http://community.adobe.com/help/search.html?q=option+bar&lbl=photoshop_product_adobelr&hl= en_US&self=0&area=0
    Must we now search from the help pages directly?
    Edit: I see that the results from "Community Help" is checked, but, one MUST select also " Only Adobe Content" AND "Adobe Refernence Only" to have the ACH results on top... creating this search string: http://community.adobe.com/help/search.html?hl=en_US&q=option+bar&l=photoshop_product_adob elr&area=0&self=1&meta=site%3Dphotoshop_cs5_all
    I do not remember having to click on three options to get ACH content...

    Should be fixed now. Let me know if you still see the problem.
    And big thanks for reporting it!

    Je n'arrive pas à mettre à jour Adobe Community Help de V 3.2.1.650 vers 3.5.0. J'ai le message d'erreur No 16822 "Une erreur s'est produite pendant le téléchargement de la mise à jour.
    Que dois-je faire ? Merci de votre aide.

    Yes, this is the right place to "Help application." I also updated "AdobeAir install" following what is said at this address:
    http://helpx.adobe.com/creative-suite/kb/help-application-doesnt-update.html
    So I put the old version of Help application in the trash, but I still can not install the new version. All goes well, but in the end I get an error message in French saying that "the program has not been properly configured. Please contact the application vendor for assistance "
    I do not understand anything!

    Yes, I have it installed in the same Oracle Home. Is it possible to create it there? Or I must create a new Oracle Home for the new installation? Please reply as soon as possible. Thank you very much for your help.
    -OyA specific ORACLE_HOME holds the binaries for a specific version of Oracle. You don't upgrade by simply installing a newer version of Oracle into the ORACLE_HOME of an older version. If you tried to do that you have probably irreversibly corrupted the original installation.
    And there is no URGENT or ASAP here. We are all volunteers with regular jobs. If you have "urgent" support issues you need to open a Service Request with Oracle Support.

  • Adobe Community Help Doesn't Work

    For some reason, the help pages don't work, either in Photoshop CS5 Extended (12.0.4) or in Bridge (4.0.5.11).  When I go to Help>Photoshop help (or Bridge help), I get the Adobe Community Help Page, but nothing on the right side of the page works.  I can try to click on any link and nothing happens.  (I am signed in, but that didn't matter.)  I can only eanter a search request on the left and get search responses.
    I was prompted earlier in the day to update Adobe Help with a thing called "airappinstaller".  Adobe Community Help "about" page says I have version 3.5.0.23 and that my help is "up to date."  I tried restarting  but it still doesn't work.  What's up?

    After installing the Adobe Air update I can reproduce the problem with Photoshop CS5 standard 12.0.4 on Windows 7 x64, Steve. 
    The cursor changes to a finger when I hover over the links in the right pane, but nothing in particular happens when they're left-clicked.
    I can right-click a link and choose open in new tab.  That does in fact open the selected page in a new tab. 
    I can click the link in the upper-right and the page opens in Internet Explorer 9, at which point all the links work, no problem.
    I can see the Air installation was successful in the Windows Application log, but no error or other message is logged when I attempt unsuccessfully to use it.
    I'm going to try logging off and on again.  Edit:  Nope, that didn't help anything.
    No modifier keys get a left-click to do anything.
    The Back button works.
    I get a pop-up menu when I click on Welcome, Noel Carboni, but clicking on any of the entries does nothing.
    I can click in the Black Search field at the upper right, and it puts a cursor there.  I can type and when I hit enter the search causes the page to change.
    When I hit the Home button all the little Ps etc. icons appear, and if I click on one it takes me to the page.
    It seems like only the left-click function for navigating on text links is broken.
    Anything else you'd like me to check?

  • Why does new PSE 8 and 9 both crash on my new Toshiba laptop with Windows 7?

    I bought new PSE Elements 8 and 9 and both crashed immediately on my new Toshiba Satellite P 755 laptop with Windows 7 64 bit OS. I tried going into Properties of PSE 9 and going to Compatability and putting in Windows 7 but it didn't do any good. Please help!

    Hi,
    Please try couple of probable solutions as mentioned below:
    Solution 1:
    1. Close Elements.
    2. Launch the Photoshop Elements Welcome Screen and hold down ctrl + alt + shift as you click Editor.
    3. Continue to hold the keys until you see a message box asking if you want to delete Photoshop Elements settings file; click Yes. Elements will open with default preferences.
    Solution 2: In case any network printer is attached try to launch without network or printer uninstall or make different printer as default.
    Solution 3: Try launching with anti-virus off or removing PSE from conflicting list.
    Solution 4:
    On the drive on which you have installed PSE,on my machine it is on C:
    Go  to C:\Program Files\Adobe\Photoshop Elements  10\Locales\<locale>\Plug-Ins\Import-Exportand you will find twain  plug-in. Remove that plug-in from that location and copy it somewhere  else.
    Now launch PSE and check if it works.

    Hi! I can't upgrade my iTunes 10.3.1.55 on my Windows XP 2002 SP3 to the latest version of iTunes. Got the message: "A problem has occured with the Windows Installer-package. A program needed for this installation could not be run." What to do?

    Perhaps let's first try updating your Apple Software Update.
    Launch Apple Software Update ("Start > All Programs > Apple Software Update"). Does it launch and offer you a newer version of Apple Software Update? If so, choose to install just that update to Apple Software Update. (Deselect any other software offered at the same time.)
    If the ASU update goes through okay, try another iTunes install. Does it go through without the errors this time?

  • Search Function does not work in Community Help

    Thanks in advance for anyone that can help.
    I use the Adobe Master Suite and have enjoyed the Community Help Application/Client.  I could do online searches for information with no issues.   In checking were I stood as far as offline documenation, I decided to download all of the Suite Documentation through the CHC Perferences through the Updater Settings and doing a manual download.  I believe (though not positive) is when my problems began.
    First, I have a MacBook Pro runing OSX 10.6.8 with FireFox Browser 9.01 (not sure the browser information is needed).  Adobe Community Help Version is 3.5.0.23 and the Adobe AIR application is version 3.1
    At this point I am able to view the online help files in the main viewing screen.  However, when I try and do a search, nothing shows up excpet a little dynamic clock icon showing that it is working and eventually it comes back with a dialog that says:  "An unexpected error has occured.  Please try your search again."
    Here is the screen shot before the search:
    And here is the image after trying a search:
    After several attempts to fix this myself, I am not asking help on the forum.  The last attemp I made was to
    - Uninstall AIR using the uninstall app under Applicaitons/Utilities/Adobe AIR Uninstaller.app
    - Deleted the folder   "user"/Library/Preferences/chc.4875E02D9FB21EE389F73B8D1702B320485DF8CE.1
    - Running the AIR installer (I downloaded the most recent version): Adobe AIR Installer.app
    - And then running the Adobe CHC help application directly: Adobe Help.app
    If I set preferences to open up in a Browser, that works just fine yet would prefer to use the CHC interface.
    Thanks in advance for any help including pointers on how to dig myself out of this hole I seem to be in.

    ADDED EDIT: When I click the OK button on the error dialog, the main view window again shows the Adobe help information as in the first image.
