Contribute CS4 and CS3 user compatibility

I recently had my school purchase 30 copies of CS3 witch I
manage their connections. I have no plans to upgrade to CS4 yet but
if one of my teachers purchases a copy they may only have the
option to buy Contribute CS4. Will this be a problem as far as my
ability to administer their connection and will this be a problem
for other CS3 users if I decide to upgrade. Will I need to go out
and purchase 30 more upgrades? I can't seem to find anything in the
tech docs yet and I am trying to be prepared for the
problems.

> one with CS4 and
> the other with CS3, work on the same documents?
Yes, for the most part. Some things have changed, for example
the markup
used when Flash is inserted, but as long as you aren't doing
things like
that, you will be quite safe.

  • CS4 and Windows 8 compatibility

    Has anyone successfully installed CS4 on Windows 8? I am currently using Windows XP and received a pop up saying Microsoft are no longer releasing updates for XP after August and I am entitled to a free download of Windows 8. I am trying to decide whether to do this but risk losing my use of CS4 which I really don't want to do. Any advice much appreciated as not sure whether to just continue with XP. Thanks in advance.

    If you search Google using the terms "CS4 and Windows 8 compatibility" you can probably find various results from both Adobe and Microsoft that should give you some idea of how much of a gamble you might face in changing your OS.
    In my own experience, a change in OS has yet to be a positive experience... while most people loved XP in its day, I suffered years of poor performance with it as an upgrade from the moment it was installed and regretted doing it.  Maybe you've had better experience and aren't as shy of it as I am.

  • Illustrator CS4 and CS3 crashing on two different mac's - can not save or print

    We have two Macs running 10.5.6, with CS4 and CS3 installed. Both systems seem to be crashing today when trying to save, print, etc any file. Some files that were created in CS3 that are older seem to be opening and saving. But anything I know was worked on yesterday are having issues on both systems.
    Anyone have any ideas?
    I have tried trashing the preferences, and also booting in safe mode and still get crashes.

    I just tried an uninstall of Illustrator - then reinstall. Did not work either. Here is the report I am getting if anyone is interested:

  • EPS file opens as code language on Mac CS4 and CS3

  • Contribute cs4 and dreaweaver cs3

    i use dreamweaver cs3.
    my client want to change his website with contribute cs4. Is this possible??

    Information available from Adobe gives instructions on setting Compatibility to Transition Mode. However, we encountered numerous problems. Adobe is now using "Work Flows" which cause heartburn to CS3 users. In addition, the send for review process has changed drastically, because of these Work Flows. Why this was done is mind boggling. It appears that whoever built CS4 has never used Contribute. There is very little information available on the Adobe Web site and even less customer support.
    We have opted not to support it at this time and have asked users to download CS3.

  • Backwards compatability CS5,CS4 and CS3

    I have a client using CS3. He cannot open the files that we send him because of missing plug-ins, namely WORLDREADY.RPLN, DYNAMICDOCUMENTS.RPLN and CONDITIONALTEXT.RPLN.
    My understanding is that these were plug-in that were added in CS4 and cannot be removed. Does this make my CS4 and CS5 files incompatable with older versions of InDesign? Are there any workarounds other than his upgrading his copy of InDesign or my saving files as INX format?

    Saving as INX is the workaround.
    You have to do this from CS4 (CS5 doesn't output INX), so if the original file was in CS5, you have to step down twice. Needless to say -- ye gods, I'm still going to say it! -- all new features of both CS4 and CS5 will be discarded from the file. To top it off, the text justification algorithm changed from CS3 to CS4, so even if your poor client can finally open the file, the chance he's going to see exactly what you last saw in InDesign is pretty slim.
    Given this, you have two relatively harmless options left: buy an original CS3 to work for this client only, or have him upgrade.

  • Contribute CS4 and Dreamweaver CS3

    Downloaded the Contribute CS4 trial today. All in all, it was
    a disaster. Now I cannot upload files from my dreamweaver site at

    How do I remove the files created by the contribute install?
    Thanks,

  • Contribute CS4 and CS5 file transfer (publish) problem on Windows 7 64 bit

    Have a problem with Contribute CS5 and CS4  on Windows 7 64 bit where upon editing a webiste for example to add a new page (or edit an existing one) and then clicking on "publish" a blank page appears on the website. To explain this further, If i make the required changes to the page and select the option to publish the file later then the file wirtten to the PC appears to be ok and has all the changes, but as soon as I publish it, only a blank page appears on the web server.  ie the upload (ftp) process does happen but the content of the page is being stripped out somewhere during the filt transfer process.
    I have editied the same site with CS4 on windows XP without any problems.
    Any suggestions would be appreciated
    Thank you
    Chris

    I seem to have solved the issue by downloading this install file
    ftp://ftp.adobe.com/pub/adobe/reader/win/9.x/9.2/enu/AdbeRdr920_en_US.exe
    which installs successfully.

  • Going between CS4 and CS3

    Greetings,
    Once you've created a composition in a CS4 version of a program such as After Effects, are you able to open the comp in the CS3 version?
    I know this problem arises with Adobe Audition when going from Audition 3 to any prior version, and I'm looking to go back to CS3 from CS4 (far too many bugs and I'm finding it far too unstable)
    Thanks,
    Sarah

    I work for a production company in Denver. I have CS4 at work and CS3 at home, and I was unable to bring my AE comp from 4 to 3. It said that AE comp was unable to open on 3 due to it being from a newer version. FYI, I had bugs and terrible preview playback and some bugs, Today I updated my NVidia driver, switched the playback quality to draft quality (by right clicking on the preview window), and put the Quality/Performance marker a step closer to performance on my NVidia Control panel, which was under the regular control panel. CS4 seems to be working great now.

  • Is it possible to make InDesign files created in CS5.5 backwardly compatible with CS4 and CS3?

    I have recently installed CS5.5 on my iMac running Mac OSX Lion. I have documents that were prepared in CS3 and CS4. They read OK in CS5.5 but I cannot then save them to be read in the earlier versions. Any Ideas please?

    You'll need to export to IDML to open in CS4. If you need them in CS3 you'll need to open the IDML in CS4 and export to INX. You can open the INX in CS3.
    WARNING: New features will be lost or badly mangled and due to changes in the text engine text will reflow throughout your document.
    This has been discussed to death in the InDesign forum. Please post follow ups there.

  • PP Install fails for CS4 and CS3

    Hi,
    I've been trying to install my licensed copy of CS3 on a machine that had 6.5 installed and ran fine.  After two days with no success, I decided I'd download CS4 and see if it installed.  No such luck.  The behavior is the same for both CS3 and CS4.  Setup begins in CS3 and goes through the extraction of the files, when the splash screen appears for initializing setup, it flashes briefly then goes disappears and exits.  In CS4, the "checking system profile" gets about 85% complete, then the initalizing setup splash screen appears for a moment and disappears  The checking system profile remains on the screen and the process is hung.
    Machine is a 3.4 Ghz Dell with 2GB RAM, SATAII hard drive with plenty of space, video is Intel integrated. XP professional service pack 3.
    Here's what I've tried:
    1) Cleaned up and removed every Adobe application on the machine, then run the CS3Cleaner at levels 1,2,3,4.
    2) Used ccleaner to remove and repair all registry related issues.
    3) Used msconfig to disable all startup commands.
    4) Updated to the latest Intel Graphics Accelerator/driver and latest chip drivers for the video.
    5) Removed most applications.
    Still seems like a conflict to me, but I can't think of anything short of reinstalling XP.  I'm at wit's end and refuse to reinstall XP from scratch just to figure out something that should be apparent to me from the installation.  The windows event log gives the message that the software was successfully installed and the add/remove programs has an entry for CS3.  When I click remove, I get a prompt for debugging in Visual Studio.
    I've rebooted, cleaned, retried about 40 times.  No, I'm not exaggerating.
    HELP! and TIA!

    Found the answer in another post:
    http://kb2.adobe.com/cps/407/kb407428.html
    I had to use solution 3 modifying the javascript install.  I still haven't figured out what is interrupting the screen call for the install.  I had to modify the js file for the install of Encore too.  Oh well, it's working!

  • Illustrator CS4 and CS3 freeze when saving a PDF as an AI file

    I'm trying to pull apart a couple of PDFs into layers to import them into After Effects. I do this all the time and it's a pretty standard thing which I haven't had any trouble with before, but for the last couple of days whenever I try to save the PDF as an AI file, the damn thing freezes - I get the washing machine of death (I'm on Vista), the program goes greyed out and I have to restart it, losing all the changes. I've tried the following, none of which seem to make any difference:
    - Saving to a different drive (C as opposed to an external USB drive)
    - Trying to open the PDFs in CS3 rather than CS4
    - Trying a couple of different PDFs
    I can't reinstall Illustrator as I'm not at the office until the new year and don't have the disks. The PDFs are small (300k or so) and so it shouldn't be their size making the machine hang, surely? I've attached a sample. Specs are - dual core Dell M6300 laptop, 2.6GHz, 4GB RAM, Quadro 1600 graphics.
    Any ideas would be very gratefully received....

    Sorry I haven't replied in a few days (I'm at my parents' house for Christmas, so not the ideal place to sort out Illustrator problems )
    This is REALLY weird. I was wondering whether Illustrator would be able to save PDFs (which are after all basically the same thing as AI files for this purpose) to get around the problem that way. I tried: it saved the thing fine. Next I tried saving what I'd just saved as a PDF, as an AI file. It saved it in a flash without any problems. (This is with the trashed prefs file - I haven't tried reinstating it, yet.) I've just loaded up a 14Mb AI file, and saved it again without trouble.
    There's only one thing I can think of that has been changed since the last time I tried this, when Illustrator wasn't working. This is something which was definitely affecting Word 2007: I've deleted a couple of network printers that were on nonexistent IP addresses. (Word wouldn't load anything, even the most basic of docs - it just froze; washing machine of death, grey screen, etc.) The default printer is thus now a Canon USB thing, which isn't plugged in either, but which Windows seems happy to carry on without. Word seemed unable to continue with the network printers installed, as presumably it was trying to contact them and failing. Could Illustrator have been falling into the same trap??
    Anyway, whatever the problem, it seems to be working OK now. Thanks both and hope you have a merry Christmas and New Year period.

  • Can I run AE CS4 and CS3 on same system? +Ram Q's

    I haven't been able to teach my motion graphics course in a year so I am behind on AE doings and the state budget cuts cancelled the purchase of my new laptop SO I only have CS3.  I am scrambling to make this course work!!
    Q:  Can I run AE CS3 and CS4 on the same system?  (we have CS4 on some lab machines but some students have only CS3 at home)
    Q:  Blimpo AE CS4 says it needs "2Gb RAM" vs CS3's "1Gb RAM for DV" (our application) - will CS4 even install and start w/o 2Gb?  If so, can one at least do simple, straightforward work with 1Gb or is it hopeless?
    Thanks for any help you can provide.

    If so, can one at least do simple, straightforward work with 1Gb or is it hopeless?
    "Simple, straightforward work" is very much a matter of definition. As long as we talking basic title, menu and background design at SD resolutions (PAL/ NTSC) or below (web) without resorting to oversized source files, it might work to a degree. I doubt, however, you will ever be abel to do anything remotely HD. Memory errors and warnings will be a constant companion....

  • Creative Suites CS4 and CS3

        Hello!
    Maybe it is a dummy question about the nature of Creative Suite licensing
    but.
    I am working along with a team now, and everyone uses flash CS3, I "only" have flash CS4 (in a CS4 design premium).
    It is very unconfortable to save in CS3 format every time, the flash CS4 has a built in system to make it very annoying and
    uncomfortable, cannot "save and compact" in CS3 format, and after saving for CS3, the flash CS4 slows down like hell,
    so everytime I have to restart it, and for long time now I am still tired of "understand" the long and undesired text before each save, what
    the heck the flash alerts me, and how to save in CS3 format, and how to run into saving back to CS4 accidentally. And why I cannot save into
    CS3, if the file is already in CS3 format, why flash wanna automatically upconvert the file.. Aaaaaa!!!!
    My question:
    my CS4 design premium license is capable to help me in installing a CS3 version of flash (or out of a CS3 design premium pack), for that project??
    Is there any way to achieve this??

    You have created a fairly unusual situation!
    I would first try runnning the CS3 Clean Script to see if that can remove it without damaging the CS4 installation. It may not.
    Otherwise I can only think of:
    Un-install CS4 normally
    Run CS4 clean script, a couple of times if necessary.

    It should also detect CS3 remnants , if not run CS3 clean script.

    Manually remove any Adobe folders remaining – they may be in more places than C:\Program files!
    Run a good registry cleaner like CCleaner.
    Start again with a fresh installation.

  • F4V and CS4 and CS3

    Hi,
    Does anyone know if there is a way of exporting to F4V from CS3?
    The reason is - I have CS4 - but my computer must be too slow to run it.
    I have a CS3 timeline but need to export to web highest quality poss and lowest bandwidth acceptable.
    Also, when I do upgrade computer- do CS3 project open in CS4?
    Many thanks

    PS just bought Magic Bullet Looks - It's REALLY good!

    Hi Guys,
    I wanted to use F4V (mp4) h264 files because they are supposed to be really great for delivery to the net.
    I have hdv footage that I want to put on the net at the highest quality possible.
    I have tried h264 quicktime in cs3 and all I seem to get is
    a. files seem to come out stretched
    b. incredibly washed out - nothing like the original
    I have thought of exporting from cs3 timeline to uncompressed avi then into adobe media encoder cs4 then to f4v. that might work but, i thought you were on supposed to encode once etc?
    Anyone exported really hdv high quality files to the net from cs3 timeline and got fantastic results? Can you point me to the videos so I can check them out please~?
    thanks
    scott
