Creative Suite Architecture

Dear All,
I'm an Adobe platform beginner.
We are starting a video project with the following objectives are
1. Provide a "template video"
(a) a video template consists of "video sequences"
(b) each sequence have components (texts, sounds, videos, images ...)
2. provide a tool to modify a video template to
(a) add/modify video sequences
(b) define some sequence components (text, sounds, video, images ...) as placeholders
3. define clients preferences for a particular video template through a user interface ie
(a) add/remove sequences
(b) define actual values for sequence placeholder components
(c) record the changes in a database
4. batch or on-demand merge (ie render) of clients preferences and associated video template to a "final non modifiable video"
Through my readings I came to the conclusion that Content Suite is the best for this project:
- Adobe premiere : to edit video (1. & 2. & 3.a)
- Adobe flash to define a user interface to
- define a client actual preferences values for sequence placeholder components (3.b)
- record a client preferences in a database (3.c)
- drive Adobe premiere to load a video template (4.)
- read a client preferences from a database (4.)
- drive Adobe premiere to apply the preferences to the video template (4.)
- drive Adobe premiere to render the "final non modifiable video" (4.)
As an Adobe platform beginner, I'm wondering
1. how this is possible with creative suite ?
2. how can I define placeholders (variables, tags ...) inside Adobe Premiere
3. how can I merge actual values with placeholders in Adobe Premiere
3. how can I get flash to drive/interact with Adobe Premiere. I've heard about Cross-DOM API, Scripting in Premiere, Adobe Bridge ...
If this is possible, how can it be implemented ? which Creative Suite product suit the best which function ? which API for which function ... ? Examples and if possible the smallest code we'll help.
4. if this is the wrong way to do the project, all suggestions are welcome.
Regards.

jan,
>My daughter is an architecture major. I want to buy Creative Suite for her macbook, but don't know which one to buy.
As Buko says, no Creative Suite "Extended" -- but you will find "Premium" versions. Check the Adobe store to see what is included in each. Here's a starting point: http://www.adobe.com/education/products/creativesuite
While I can see a use for the basic Adobe apps (Photoshop, Illustrator, InDesign, Acrobat), I can't see them as being the entire list of software that would be required in the course of study.
Each school
has a required list of books, software and other supplies for each curriculum. Request the list -- either the bookstore or the Architecture Dept or School has it. And the school store generally has the lowest prices available for the software.
But, make sure that the
minimum specs for the software are matched or (preferably) exceeded by your daughter's computer.

  • Installing Creative suite 6, failure to initialize/restart may be pending win 7

    During the installer initialization it arrives at the machine restart may be pending however HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Control\Session Manager. does not contain InProgress key
    I have previously rebooted the computer because of issues stemming from an older version of NVIDIA graphic card interfering, in conflict with a windows update, with Revit Architecture software.
    Both programs are needed for school.
    After not finding the problem it resolved in just failure to initialize for a decent amount of time. This left nothing for adobe support advisor to even recognize.
    Please help.

    Hi R.scott55,
    Please navigate to C/Program Files(X86)/Common Files/Adobe/and look for Caps and OOBE and rename both.
    Run the installer again. If it says restart is pending just select ignore and proceed with installation.
    If still any issue then follow the steps refered in the kb: http://helpx.adobe.com/creative-suite/kb/troubleshoot-error-messages-bootstrapper-cs5.html

  • Adobe Creative Suite 4 install question.

    Hello,
    I have installed only certain apps of my Adobe Creative Suite 4. The question is that if i look in the finder to the application folder there are all the folders of the application that i mark to install with color icons, but there are also folders of the applications that i DO NOT mark to install without color icons. I belive that those folders do not contain all the application because have a small size, but theiy are not empty. For what are those folders there? It is safe to remove them?
    I will appreciate a lot any help or information that you could give me. Thanks for your time,
    Marcelo :)

    Hello,
    It seems that this is a common issue with the installation of Adobe Creative Suite 4, i have read now the reade me file (i should read it first when i installed the apps) and there it said in common issues: "Protected Content for Adobe Premiere Pro, After Effects, Encore, Soundbooth and OnLocation will be installed, even if those applications have been not been selected for installation. It will appear as though the applications have been installed: application folders will appear in the Start menu on Windows or in the Applications folder on Mac. However, upon attempting to launch one of these applications, an error message will appear saying "You can't open the application because it is not support on this architecture." (#BG063851) "
    It does not said it we have to delete those folders or not, but since this is in the common issues section i belive this is a problem and that i should remove it. What do you think?
    Thanks,
    Marcelo :)

  • Can adobe ideas sync with creative suite or just creative cloud?

    I Am a student in architecture and use my creative suite everyday. Is there anyway I can sync this, and other adobe apps, to creative suite or just creative cloud?

    Hi!  I think I need to better understand what you may be trying to do.  The Adobe Ideas files can be synced to the Creative Cloud and accessed on the desktop for use within the Creative Suite; natively within Illustrator.  If you can, let me know some additional details in regards to your workflow and I will attempt to provide a more comprehensive response.
    Thanks,

  • Creative Suite Eligibility

    I am a Christian Preschool Art and Computer Arts Teacher (K4-Kindergarten and Elementary School age) and am the parent of two 10th grade high school students who attend a Technology Academy and are studying engineering/video gaming and architecture engineering/marketing. We are interested in purchasing Creative Suite for a variety of reasons but most importantly to assist in the various projects that each of my 10th graders work on at school. Im looking at purchasing the Creative Suite Teacher Student Edition and am wondering if we are eligible to purchase. Both of my children have school id's and whatever ids are necessary for verification. I have an Id from my school as well. Can this be presented at time of purchase at the store?
    Thank you.

  • I am unable to open my Photoshop program after installing the entire Creative Suite: Premium Production 6. All other programs work, but with Photoshop it says that the program is "locked or in use by another user". I need this fixed immediately.

    I am unable to open my Photoshop program after installing the entire Creative Suite: Premium Production 6. All other programs work, but with Photoshop it says that it "Could not open a scratch file because the file is locked, you do not have necessary access permissions, or another program is using the file. Use the 'Properties' command in the Windows Explorer to unlock the file." Then I select "OK" and the next message comes up "Could not initialize Photoshop because the file is locked, you do not have the necessary permissions, or another program is using the file. Use the 'Properties' command in the Windows Explorer to unlock this file. I installed all of the programs on the same day from a CD. I need this fixed immediately.
    I am not interested in switching to Creative Cloud, so don't even suggest it. I spoke to Mashmi (or something to that effect) on the "Support" Chat and there was absolutely no support. Useless actually.
    Thanks in advance.

  • How do I add Adobe Creative Suite to my MacBook Pro...?

    @Forgive me for asking what may be a really silly question.... but here goes..!
    I currently have the Adobe Creative Suite on my Mac desktop and now I'm wanting to add it to my new MacBook Pro.  How do I install all the apps without having to purchase them again?  I'm logged in and searching but guess I'm missing the info I need to do this.
    Thanks!

    Just install it like you normally would - like you did with your desktop.  You are allowed to have it installed and activated on two machines.  If you need to download it you might find a link for that thru your Adobe account online.
    Other download links might be available thru...

  • Can I install creative suite 6 on more than one device? (I've recently acquired a new laptop for on the go work, and am curious if I can install my adobe software onto such).

    As of recently, I've purchased a new laptop.
    Seeing as how I'm quite used to using my drawing tools in Photoshop and Illustrator (my trusty Wacom Intuos Pro),
    I'm curious as to if I'm able to install my current purchased version of Creative Suite Design Standard 6 onto my laptop (whilst still having it installed on my main at-home work desktop).
    Thank you very much for taking the time to oversee my question, and hopefully respond with an answer.
    Much thanks!

    Thank you for the assistance!
    I shall try to install once I arrive home from school this evening.
    Again, much appreciated!

  • Runtime Error when installing Adobe Creative Suite 5.5 Production Premium

    I am trying to install Adobe Creative Suite 5.5 Production Premium, but I keep getting a 'Runtime Error!':  This application has requested the Runtime to terminate it in an unusual way.  Please contact the application's support team for more information.
    What should I do?  Any help greatly appreciated!  I am running Win 7, Service Pack 1, 64 bit.

    We cannot know. Your information is hugely insufficient. Check Your Windows Event Viewer and tell us the "fault module" plus provide detailed specs for your computer. Runtime errors usualyl mean that A DLL is missing, a security tool is blocking critical functions or that the processor is not compatible in teh first place. Just as well this could be a driver issue with your SATA bus or whatever.

  • Update failed. Windows - Creative Suite 5 Premium. Trying to update Camera Raw.

    My apologies if I'm not following the correct protocol on this forum. It's my first time here.
    I'm a novice with Photoshop and the Creative Suite, and until now I have only used its basic features.
    However, I tried to upload a RAW format image today, only to learn that program won't accept it.
    I tried to update the Camera Raw plug-in, but it doesn't want to install.
    I tried updating the whole suite using the "Help" and Update menus.
    It downloads the appropriate updates for my version, and apparently begins to install them.
    However, after the install bar reached 60-70 percent, it stops and says installation failed.
    It is properly registered product - the serial number is in My Account.
    Can anyone suggest a fix for me please?
    Thank you.

    update by downloading the files directly and then applying them:
    pre cc updates:  http://www.adobe.com/downloads/updates/
    however, you may not be able to update cs5 sufficiently to use your camera (which is?).  you can then use the dng converter.

  • I am in the middle of a job using CS 6, but at the same time opening the Creative Suite apps.  I created an InDesign file in CS 6, saved it, and now I can't open it. I'm getting this message: Cannot open file because it was saved with a newer version of A

    I am in the middle of a job using CS 6, but at the same time opening the Creative Suite apps.  I created an InDesign file in CS 6, saved it, and now I can't open it. I'm getting this message: Cannot open file because it was saved with a newer version of Adobe InDesign CC (10.1). You must use that version or later to open the file." AARRGGHH! So how do I access the file?

    Sounds like you opened and saved it in CC, so now you need to go back to CC and either complete the project there, or export to IDML to take it back into CS6.

  • Adobe Creative Suite Design CS6 - PhotoShop, InDesign and Illustrator immediately shuts down after startup

    I'm troubleshooting for a customer who have Adobe Creative Suite Design CS6.
    His programs suddenly wont start, they launches and starts to read plug-ins and open up a workspace, but then without warning/error it shuts down. no log, error message or anything...
    It's the same for PhotoShop, InDesign and Illustrator both in 32 bit and 64.
    He is running the suit on a Hp EliteBook 8560p with Windows 7 Pro x64 sp1.
    He also have had a Wacom Bamboo CTE 650 penpad installed before.
    This is what I've done so far:
    * Uninstall the whole suit and reinstalled it again (Done this 3-4 times, manually deleted regestry-files, used CClean and other cleaning tools)
    * Deleted the wacom-drivers with controlpanel tool, Windows driver Clean tool, CClean and manually deleted registry-keys and files.
    * Uninstall Anti-Virus software and replaced it with another, inactivated AV and Windows Firewall.
    * Deleted register-files for the suits and "reregister" them again.
    * Full patch both for windows and adobe softwares.
    * Reboot between each step
    Any suggestions?
    I have to add that adobe support for this $2000 software really sucks...
    Thanks!

    Problem solved!
    I went through all the folders associated with adobe cs6 and renamed them (one by one) so they would be recreated.
    I did this before but seems like I missed this specific one.
    Anyway, when I renamed the folder "SLCache" in C:\Program Files (x86)\Common Files\Adobe\ and then ran the applications one by one as administrator I was prompted to enter a serial-key again and log in to my Adobe-ID.

  • After downloading & installing application of adobe creative suite cs2 version 6,  screen of adobe photoshop cs2 is not opened by clicking icon . message is giving " ausba4.dll " was not present. Please guide me.?

    I have downloaded & installed adobe creative suit cs2 version 6 but when I click the icon of adobe photoshop in desktop it is not opened & giving message " this application has failed to start because " ausba4.dll " was not found. reinstalling of the application may fix the problem " I have reinstall & opened many times but even then it is not opened. Please guide me accordingly.

    I'd try disabling the Twain_32.8BA plugin in
    C:\Program Files\Adobe\Adobe Photoshop CS2\Plug-Ins\Import-Export
    You can disable the plugin by putting an ~ (tilde) in front of the name or moving the plugin to your desktop.
    Then try photoshop cs2 and see if you still get the error message.
    I suspect the error has to do with your scanner driver, since photoshop cs2 does not have an ausba4.dll
