CS5 update date issue with CS4 Student Licensing version

Before downloading the Flash Pro CS5 update, from Adobe's web-site, I called Adobe and asked this question, " Will the Flash Pro CS5 upgrade work with my Student Licensing version?" The answer I received (after being put on hold), was "Yes, the CS5 upgrade will work with my version of CS4."
However...after paying for and downloading the Flash Pro CS5, I am finding that it is not working. The serial number asked for, from my version of CS4, comes up as being not valid.
Any suggestions as to resolving this issue would be appreciated!
Thanks!

There are no restrictions against you using your student-licensed version of CS4 (either any of the suites or individual programs) for commercial work other than that you may not sell or otherwise transfer your license to anyone else.

Issues With CS4 Installation on Win 8?

I purchased CS4 (Web Premium) on disc several years ago, and it has been working fine on my Win XP computer ever since. The Adobe software has all the current updates, though I am using the CS4 version of Acrobat Pro (9.xx) rather than a more recent (free) version of Reader.,
Unfortunately, my computer's hard drive has fried, and I just purchased a new Windows 8 machine, which will arrive shortly. I am trying to determine:
1. Are there any general issues with CS4 installation on Win 8 that I should know about in advance?
2. Are there specific procedures (de-activation?) that I need to follow BEFORE attempting the installation on the new computer?
3. Other than specific user issues, are there problems with CS4 versus Windows 8 that I would not encounter with Windows 7.
I enhance photos and create web sites for a living, so the CS4 installation is mission-critical. I am hoping I did not make a mistake in ordering a Win 8 machine...
Thanks for any and all insights.

OK, fair enough. Maybe someone who has actually experienced this situation (CS4 --> Win 8 machine) might see this and offer some tips to avoid hassles. But I will try the install as soon as I get the new machine and post any ensuing issues/problems here.
As for de-activation of the previous installation on the XP machine, that is now impossible, as the hard-drive is fried. Unless there is a way to de-activate an installation some other way (without actually opening the programs). That said, I AM able to access files on the fried harddrive, so if there is a specific file that controls de-activation, I could access it on the old machine. However, I may not be able to actually RUN said file on that machine, but can copy it to a stick and move it elsewhere. So, any thoughts on deactivation of an installation on a deceased computer?

Multiple installs of cs4 student licensing

How many license installs come with the student license of cs4? I have a few machines a new one and an old one and my wife’s how many install licenses comes with the student version?

i am a bit confused when you say only two actevtions but then you say done go back and forth on the machiens i am not sure i understand
Well you indicated that you had 3 computers with your wife's. deactivating one of your 2 to activate on you wife's computer will use up you 20 active/deactivations fast.
i have a laptop machien and a desk top machien and i use both all the time and often at the same time what should i do ?
As stated You have 2 activations that you can use. 1 for work 1 for laptop or home. You are not supposed to use CS4 on the desktop to do one thing and at the same time do another thing on your laptop.

CS4 student licensing restrictions on commercial use?

I have a question concerning using a student licensed CS4 for commercial purposes after one is out of school. I've just spent several hours researching this topic and talking to a service representative via the chat only to increase my confusion. Some posts say yes, some say no, some say no only to non-US users, some seem to say yes to education editions but no to student licensing versions (if there is a difference?), and the rep I talked to said no.
So, to be safe, I'm asking here: can I use my Student Licensing CS4 Design Standard version to do commercial work with after I'm out of school? I bought it while in college legitimately, its the kind that you have to visit the student licensing web page on adobe.com in order to get the serial number for. However, I have seen multiple conflicting answers on the forums concerning this version. I do not know if "Student License" versions are the same as "Student Edition" versions, or "Education Edition" versions, or "Teacher Edition" versions, or if any of those last three are even actual versions.
To be clear, the word "edition" does not appear at all on my CS4 Student Licensing package. The package cover art has a white background with a vertical line in the middle of it that is made up of red gradients.
This question is from someone who both currently lives in, and bought the Student Licensing version of CS4 in, the United States. (2009)
Thank you for your help!

Using Adobe PhotoShop CS4, I cannot add text to a new layer. It was always a snap with previous versions of OS 10. Has anyone else noticed issues with CS4 and Lion? Many thanks in advance. Pete Hendricks

Happy to report that iTunes Match has returned to working like normal on iTunes 10.7 on my computer today. If any iTunes engineers read this thread, I really appreciate the fix.
Has it returned to normal for you?

Contribute 6.5 can not ftp after years of no issues with CS4 and CS5

The problem
Contribute 6.5 can not connect via ftp using settings that formerly worked (and still do) in CS4 and CS5.
How we ended up here
I am the administrator website where
Our content editors have been using Contribute CS 4 and Contribute CS 5 without issue, 6+ years.
We are trying to upgrade to CS 6.5 to better support HTML5 markup now used within the site.
When attempting to configure a website connection in 6.5, Contribute alerts:
"Contribute cannot find the website files on the server. Please contact the website's administrator for assistance."
After closing the dialog box the failed connection is removed from contributes website connection list.
We have a shared hosting account and utilize ftp to publish changes.
Server is Win2008 with IIS 7.5
Again it's shared hosting, so read/write ftp are scoped to our account's directory.
We attempted this on serveral pcs including on a PC with a fresh install of Windows 7.
We can still connect successfully via ftp with CS4, CS5, dreamweaver, and Filezilla.
Which is why I believe this to be a Contribute 6.5 issue.
I've attempted the following troubleshooting articles:
Use network I/O logging to log operations, identify problems
I compared the I/O logging for both CS5 and CS 6.5 which both appear to log the same diagnostic steps.
Contribute FTP Server Checker (quite dated)
All successes reported. No failures.
Troubleshooting a Connection CS4 (linked from with CS 6.5's help UI)
As indicated above, alternate FTP clients have no issue.
This appears to be similar issue to the following posts:
5301620 - HELP - FTP Connection Error with Contribute 6.5
5907180 - Contribute 6.5 can no longer connect to sites ...
Unfortunately, there has been no solutions posted on either of these threads.
Any help would be greatly appreciated.
I can PM the network I/O log details if there is adobe staff who can get them in the right hands.
(Again the logs only show successes.)

@Zaldomoh
Have you found a solution or been given assistance from Adobe to resolve this issue? I'm having the same problem (CS 6.5 ftp'ing to a shared hosting enviroment). Details of our situation can be found on thread 1384686

I need to reinstall my CS3 creative suite I bought with a student license. It allows me to install but never asked for the serial number. I can open the programs but can not use them, get a "Adobe updater quit unexpectedly" message.

I bought a CS3 creative suite on a student license in 2008. The original MAC laptop has died and I am trying to install it on a MAC desktop. the programs installs successfully but never ask for a serial number. the programs will open but I can not open any files, I get a Adobe Updater quite unexpectedly message. Is this because the serial number has not been entered? I have tried chat about this problem twice, also use Adobe connect and was not helped. How do I enter this serial number?

activate is grayed out. Registration is available and when I select it, it says "A problem was encountered while trying to send the information over the internet" So I select "submit again" and nothing happens. Then the program closes and I get the added updater quite message.

Yes...lots of folks at Adobe. And since they haven't released any information, you'll need to wait like the rest of us.
Also, before I buy is there any compatibility issues with Windows 7 x64 and CS4 Design Premium?
Thanks,

Now...that I can help you with. CS4 is fully supported under Win7 in both 32 and 64 bit. I have the full master collection here and everything runs just fine.

New hard drive: Trouble re-installing CS4 Student License.

So, the hard drive in my Macbook died.
I installed a new hard drive and tried unsuccessfully to restore from Time Machine backup several times before giving up and installing a fresh OS Mavericks.
I still have the original discs, however, the optical drive on this machine quit long ago. So far I've been successful dragging applications over from the backup on my external drive, but when I go to open my Adobe software I am getting error messages: InDesign says something about missing Roman.txt, Photoshop says I need to restart, etc.
I'm fairly certain this is linked to serial numbers and the limited student license, but not sure how to fix it.
HALP!
Thanks.

uninstall (if you can), or delete (if you can't uninstall) everything adobe that you 'dragged', clean (Use the CC Cleaner Tool to solve installation problems | CC, CS3-CS6) and properly install adobe programs with the adobe installers.

Multi-monitor issue with CS4?

Hi; I'm running a Mac with the following specs:
3 x 30" ACD
MacPro 2,8 Ghz Quad
2x ATI Radon 2600 XT graphics cards (2 screens attached to 1 card; 1 screen to the other card)
I've encountered after the switch from CS3 to CS4 the following issue:
Whenever I try to use the new Bridge Review function using one of the the screens sharing one graphics card I just get a grey screen.
If I move the bridge window to the solely attached screen it works.
Is that an issue of CS4 or is just the throughput of the second graCard providing 2 monitors not sufficient.
Thanks t.

T,
There are known issues with using more than one graphics card which Apple has not truly resolved. You may want to browse some of the threads in the Adobe Photoshop Macintosh forum.
In addition, you should know that Photoshop and Bridge cannot really take advantage of more than one graphic card.
http://forums.adobe.com/message/1540485#1540485
This bit of information in relation to GPU and OpenGL features and
limitations in Photoshop CS4 had totally escaped me until now. Though
it doesn't affect my setup, it might be of interest to others who may
have missed it too.
Excerpt from
http://www.adobe.com/go/kb404898
Q. Does Photoshop take advantage of dual-GPU display cards?
A. Not at this time.
Q. Why can't Photoshop take advantage of more than one display card?
A. When you move an image window between two monitors that are
each on a separate display card, the GPU attached to the second monitor
does not have access to the data necessary to accelerate drawing. The
SLI and Crossfire technologies that use more than one GPU to speed up
full-screen games will not work with Photoshop, because their use is
limited by design to accelerate only full-screen games.

Windows Media Player plugin does not install on a fresh install of Firefox 15. This is a real issue with new students.

I have them go to the correct site:
plugin download page on Interoperability Bridges.
My only options are:
1. Have them move some files over manually; which isn't feasible with students who are technically challenged.
2. Have them install an earlier version of Firefox. 11 is the last known good version that accepts the WMP install. The problem I am finding with this is even though I tell them not to update before installing WMP somehow they still manage to do it. A lot of times they don't know how to tell me what version of ANY browser they are using.
Firefox is one of the few browsers that work with our LMS well, but this plug problem is a real issue.
This only pertains to any student who has never had Firefox on their computer prior to 11.
Thanks in advance.

I noticed it after 11, however with 12 students students experienced problems with puzzles in Angel LMS. We had people roll back to 11.
13 came out and that's when the trouble started. I usually stay in beta so I can get a idea of what's working. Once again I had people roll back to 11.
I logged into a system here I had not logged into before and did a fresh install of 11 and I was able to recreate the problem myself.
Getting people on 11 is a little harder this semester because I had to locate the 11 install and send that along with the plugin to new users. The 11 install likes to force the 15 update so they have to get the plugin installed right away. Sometimes the concept is a little much for some people.
Edit: 12 might have been okay, since we were rolling back anyway. I don't recall any issues with WMP the few weeks students had been using it.
Edit 2: I do remember trying to search these forums for the issue and someone posted that they had been experiencing the same problems with 12 beta (at the time it was beta) and I think it was explained as being a beta issue and it never went anywhere else.

FYI - High precision data issue with sdo_anyinteract on 11.2.0.3 with 8307

For anyone that may happen to be experiencing issues with SDO_ANYINTERACT on 11.2.0.3 with high-precision geodetic data, I currently have a service request in to fix it.
The issue we have is with locating small polygons ("circles" from 0.5"-4") in the 8307 space. The metadata we have specifies a 1mm tollerance for this data, which has worked fine since (as I remember) 10.1. Support verified it works fine up to 11.2.0.2, then is broken in 11.2.0.3.
So if you are pulling your hair out - stop. ;-) The SR# is 3-5737847631, and the bug# (will be) 14107534.

Here is the resolution to this issue...
Oracle came back and said what we have at that tolerance is unsupported and we were just lucky for it to have worked all these years. They are not going to fix anything because it technically isn't broke. We pointed out that the documentation is a little unclear on what exactly supports higher precision, and they noted that for future updates.
When asked if they would entertain a feature request for a set of high-precision operators (basically the old code) in future release - they basically said no. So for the few items that we much have higher precision - we are on our own.
What still makes us puzzled is that apparently no one else is using high-precision data in lat/lon. Amazing, but I guess true.
Anyhow, here is what we used to use (up to 11.2.0.3) which worked fine at a 1mm tollerance:
Where mask_geom is:
mask_geom      :=
         sdo_geometry (2001,
                       8307,
                       sdo_point_type (x_in, y_in, 0),
                       NULL,
                       NULL);
SELECT copathn_id
INTO cpn
FROM c_path_node a
WHERE     sdo_anyinteract (a.geometry_a2, mask_geom) = 'TRUE'
       AND node_typ_d = 'IN_DUCT'
       AND ROWNUM < 2;Basically this finds indexed geometry and compares it to a single mask geometry (a simple point for the x/y given). Only one row is returned (in case they overlapped duct openings - not normal).
Since this no longer returns any rows reliably for items less than 5cm in size, here is our work-around code:
SELECT copathn_id
INTO cpn
FROM ( SELECT copathn_id,
                 node_typ_d,
                   ABS (ABS (x_in) - ABS (sdo_util_plus.get_mbr_center (a.geometry_a2).sdo_point.x))
                 + ABS (ABS (y_in) - ABS (sdo_util_plus.get_mbr_center (a.geometry_a2).sdo_point.y))
                    distdiff
            FROM c_path_node a
           WHERE sdo_nn (a.geometry_a2,
                         mask_geom,
                         'distance=0.05 unit=m') = 'TRUE'
        ORDER BY distdiff)
WHERE node_typ_d = 'IN_DUCT'
   AND ROWNUM < 2;Essentially we use sdo_nn to return all results (distance usually is 0) at the 5cm level. At first we though just this would work - then we found that in many cases it would we return multiple results all stating a distance of 0 (not true).
For those results we then use our own get_mbr_center function that returns the center point for each geometry, and basically compute a delta from the given x_in,y_in and that geometry.
Then we order the results by that delta.
The outer select then makes sure the row is of the correct type, and that we only get one result.
This works, and is fast (actually it is quicker than the original code).

Hi,
I guess there might be some issue with VAKEY population.
All the key fields in A957 should be concated properly while populating VAKEY. (Leading zeros must be prefixed to the material)

Another date issue with E52

Hi,
I have a really annoying problem with Nokia E52. The date is not automatically update. When I wake up every morning, the date still remains yesterday, though time still runs well. I have to switch the phone off and then switch it on and only then the date is updated. I don't want to switch it off and on every morning like this.
I have checked the option Automatically update date and time already. I also update the software to the latest version but the problem hasn't been solved yet. Anyone can help me?
Thanks!

I am having same issue. But I solved it by selecting Automatic time update ON. So when I turn on E52 in the morning it still has old date but in second update it with right one from mobile network.
This bug is connected with 16GB card - when I remove it it works fine. Also if I have alarm pending than this bug is not present.
Check if your mobile provider support automatic time update.

Dates issue with BAPI_NETWORK_MAINTAIN

Dear Frens,
I have issue with dates in the activities and in the header of network while using BAPI_NETWORK_MAINTAIN. I am creating a new network with the deleted activities of an already
existing network. The network is being created with the activity early_start_Date and finsh dates as
sy-datum and the network header has early start dates set to sy-datum.
While passing values to the table parameter I_ACTIVITY of the BAPI , the dates are as available in the
existing network. But for unknown reason, The newly created network dates are with the today's date.
Can any one please let me know the possible reason for this.
Also every time I create a new network with multiple activities the new network is being created without first activity of the set of activities to be created.
Here also the table parameter I_ACTIVITY has all the activities that are to be created for new network.
I appreciate your quick response on this.
Regards
Priya

Hi Lakshmi,
I was able to solve the problem but not by the answer you gave. I had to write a WAIT up to 3 seconds after commit and that updated the table.Thanks anyways
