CS6 scroll list

Hello, Does anyone know if they updated the scrolling lists for mobile applications in the new Flash CS6? I'm talking about the smooth iOS type scroll. Since they have it in Flash Builder i really hope they put it in Flash Professional.

It's possible to use Flex in Flash you know.. Although it runs on a different layer so you'd need to plan for it. Have a read here for an example:
http://seeing-is-believing.blogspot.com/2007/11/flex-components-in-flash-example-with.html
You just need the Flex SDK which is free, here:

Performance advice required - creating images for a scrolling list view on Android

This is a question about how best to manage thumbnail images in an list view style app written in Actionscript 3 for Android.
I am building an app that uses a list view control to show lists of data. As each list item appears on screen during a scroll through the list I create a thumbnail image to display in the list item cell.
Currently I am embedding the jpg thumbnails in actionscript and using mx.core.bitmapasset to get bitmaps on the fly. On a live device this is unfortunately slowing things down - the smooth scrolling list jerks every time a new cell appears on screen.
There are probably going to be 500+ thumbnails but a list will only ever have about 150 items in it at any one time, of which only about 6 or 7 are onscreen at the same time. The list view control is one that I have created myself in actionscript but I am pretty sure the thumbnail creation is the cause of the slowdown. If I take out thumbnails the scrolling is smooth. If I reuse the same thumbnail across all cells then scrolling is smooth too. The component reuses cells as they disappear off one end of the list so there isn't much creation of objects going on.
I am running this in debug so it might be possible that in release things are better (maybe?).
Does anyone have any advice on how best to approach this problem of getting jpg assets available quickly?

Hi,
I think you can use ContentCache here. See http://help.adobe.com/en_US/FlashPlatform/reference/actionscript/3/spark/core/ContentCache .html. You need to create an instance of ContentCache and set the contentLoader property of your Bitmap object to this instance. You can control the number of cachedEntries by setting maxCacheEntries. The tutorial by Mihai Corlan http://corlan.org/?p=3106 shows how you can use it. I hope you find it useful.
Thanks,

Best way to make a smooth scrolling list of 100's of objects ?

Hi there.I need a smooth scrolling list! for eg the scrolling list of contacts in iOS.
I can make a scrolling list by just vertically moving a huge sprite that contains all of the elements as movie clips but this is slow !
how could I make something that doesnt slow down depending on the size of that data ?
Thanks
Luke

I made a simplified test and it also was running slower without
import flash.display.MovieClip;
import hiResStats.net.hires.debug.Stats;
import flash.display.BitmapData;
import flash.display.Bitmap;
import com.greensock.*;
import flash.events.*;
var stats:Stats = new Stats();
var holder:MovieClip = new MovieClip();
addChild(holder);
for (var i=0; i<1000; i++) {
var newitem:item = new item();
newitem.label.text=String(Math.random());
var bmp:BitmapData=new BitmapData(320,60);
bmp.draw(newitem);
var bitmap:Bitmap=new Bitmap(bmp);
bitmap.y=i*60;
holder.addChild(bitmap);
var blitMask:BlitMask=new BlitMask(holder,0,0,320,480,true,true);
addChild(stats);
addEventListener(Event.ENTER_FRAME,go);
function go(e:Event) {

Gesture driven scrolling list

Hi, I am so frustrated guys. I am brand new to flash and am
using flash CS3. I have been trying to follow this tutorial at
http://www.peachpit.com/articles/article.aspx?p=27149&seqNum=3
to make a gesture driven scrolling list. I am stuck on the
first actions slide code. I have basically followed this tutorial
exactly and yet I get a bunch of compiling errors when i run my
code. If someone could please look at this for me I would really
appreciate it. I am stuck on the Frame 1 actionscript. Is there
some way i can upload my .fla file?

Hi there,
The code was written with Actionscript 1.0. Try changing your
Publish settings to target the Flash Player 6 and Actionscript 1.0.
You'll also have to do Save As and save it as a Flash 8
document.
Now you can test the movie and hopefully it should
work.

Tabbing into a Scroll List

hi,
I am wondering if it is possible to be able to tab into a scroll list?
Say, I use a JPanel (with GridBagLayout) containing a JScrollPane
in which a JList is added, and also a few JButtons exist in this JPanel.
What I want to is that:
(1) whenever pressing TAB key, the correct tabbing order for this wizard should be: button1, button2, ..., buttonX, scroll list, and then again button1, ...
(2) whenever pressing Shift + TAB keys, the correct tabbing order for this wizard should be the reversed order, i.e. scroll list, buttonX, ..., button2, button1, and then again scroll list,
buttonX, ...
The problem is that I could not tab into this scroll list but only buttons now. Anybody know how to solve such a problem? Any sample codes are appreciated if possible.
Regards,
Jrabi

Take a look at this in the API docs:
javax.swing.DefaultFocusManager
Hope that helps,

CS5.5 Gripes/CS6 Wish List (from the perspective of an FCP switcher)

I have been a Final Cut Pro user for more than 10 years (starting with version 1.2 on a 500 MHz G4). Final Cut Pro X is a disaster, but that’s a well-covered topic for a different forum. After experimenting with Premiere Pro CS5.5 for a few months, I am ready to make the switch for all of my future projects.
I make a living editing video. I don’t, however, work for a big company, and I don’t have a lot of money to spend on third-party software or hardware. Much of my work is shot on DSLRs and delivered online. That may put me in the category of “pro-sumer” to some, but I wouldn’t be making the switch if I didn’t require a more professional alternative to FCPX to do my job.
I also don’t think “pro” has to be synonymous with clunky and ugly. (I’m looking at you, Avid.) When Final Cut was young, it was fun, intuitive, and sturdy. It became a robust, professional NLE over time. I think Premiere Pro is on that path now.
I like the look, the feel, and the functionality of CS5.5. It’s not quite Apple-slick, but it’s very much at home on a Mac. Overall, it’s an upgrade to FCP7 and a very strong alternative to FCPX. I have high hopes for CS6.
But this is not a comprehensive review. It is just a list of negatives: my gripes, wishes, and personal preferences. My list of positives would be much longer, but my concern right now is with CS6 and the improvements that I hope it delivers. As I am new to Premiere, it's quite possible that I am mistaken about certain functionalities or lack thereof, but I thoroughly researched each point in the help docs and forums before posting this.
My primary system is a 3.2 GHz iMac 21” (2010) with 8 GB RAM, 512MB VRAM (ATI Radeon HD), running Mac OS X 10.7 with external Firewire 800 drives and a DisplayPort-to-HDMI external display.
MAJOR ISSUES
Hardware acceleration support for ATI GPUs
There are rumors that Apple will be switching back to nVidia, but all recent iMacs have ATI and only ATI cards.
Background rendering (or at least improved rendering options)
Background rendering is probably FCPX’s most impressive feature and Adobe needs to catch up. However, even if true background rending can’t be achieved, there should be an auto-render option (after a set idle time), partial rendering (if you cancel a render, keep everything that has been rendered up until that point), and more render options (e.g. render all and render selected). Regarding that last point, I think the whole work area concept should be dropped. It makes sense for other apps, particularly for animation, but it just gets in the way of more important timeline functions while offering little functionality beyond being a clumsy way to control the area to be rendered. At the very least, have a way to hide it.
Full-screen preview
Maximizing the program frame just isn’t the same (although the grave accent key function may be reason enough to switch to Premiere). Full-screen preview isn’t just a nifty function for demo-ing sequences. It’s a big part of the way I work.
DisplayPort/Thunderbolt out to HDMI
It may be that a third-party card is required for proper color correction on an external display, but there’s no reason this feature shouldn’t exist.
Thumbnail images/show frames bug
This one drives me crazy. I’ve tested this on 3 different Mac systems with various hardware configurations. Thumbnail images in the bins and frame images in the timeline seem to be recreated every time a project is opened, even though the thumbnail image files in the media cache folder don’t actually appear to get rewritten. It’s as if there is no cache at all (even for the most recently viewed bins and timelines segments). It can’t be an intentional functionality for saving hard drive space because the cache files continue to take up more and more space.
Open multiple projects simultaneously
I know that you can cut and paste between projects but being able to open multiple projects at the same time is a very useful feature of FCP7.
Magic Mouse/Magic Trackpad scrolling
Premiere Pro is a cross-platform system and impressively so, but there need to be a few Mac-specific interface adjustments, the most important of which is support for the Magic Mouse and Magic Trackpad scrolling. I use a Magic Mouse. (It’s an irritating device sometimes, but once you get used to it, it’s hard to live without it.) When I’m in a window, I expect a flick up or down to scroll up or down -- in every situation, every time, including the timeline. Unless I stop using all other Mac apps, I will never get accustomed to the timeline suddenly flying left or right when I want to scroll up or down. Also, here’s a chance for Adobe to fix a problem that FCP7 shared: When you scroll up or down in the effect control window using the mouse, the drop-down effect controls sometimes twirl all over the place if the mouse happens to float over them. As it is, it very easy to throw settings into random disarray without even realizing it just by scrolling through the pane.
The timeline: selection indication, icons, and general improvements
It is very difficult to discern at a glance what, if anything, is selected in the timeline. Transitions always look selected! Audio tracks should be a different color or otherwise more distinct. There should be an option to show frames only without any text. The icons for track options are small, crowded, and ugly. Some of the editing icons are too similar, namely edit and ripple edit, although the excellent status bar at the bottom of the application goes a long way towards making up for this. Simply put, the timeline could use some polish. Don’t be afraid to steal from Apple on this one. Keep the tracks; just make it easier on the eyes!
Conforming audio
The ability of CS5.5 to work natively with DSLR footage is awesome, but it’s not fully DSLR native if it has to pre-render a major component of the footage before it can play, even if it’s just the audio.
Media loading
When launching a project, it can take a long time for all the media in the project to “load” as tracked in the status bar. I’m sure there’s a reason for this, but since the program is able to determine which source media files are missing before this step (and gives you the option to reconnect them), what is it doing and why must it load every clip in the project, even those not in use by any sequences?
Page up/page down and arrow key commands
For starters, the current page up/page down key functions should take the CTI to the next cut in the sequence, not the next cut in the track that happens to be targeted, which can be way down timeline. In FCP7, I frequently navigated cut to cut with the up and down arrow keys. I’ve avoided customizing the keyboard commands to match FCP7 -- I would rather endure some hardship and learn the proper Adobe commands -- but this one is flat-out backwards. The page up/down keys should page through the timeline (left to right and right to left), while the up and down arrow keys should take over the clip to clip function (assuming the targeted track issue is fixed). Currently, the down arrow takes you to the very end of the timeline, a function already duplicated by and better suited for the “end” key.
Bin management and clip relationships
Deleting an item from a bin should not delete it from the timeline, but this is part of a bigger problem, which is the whole master file versus instance versus subclip versus dup clip thing. There aren’t any good indicators regarding the relationships of these clips, and there are few ways to adjust them. If clips are going to be connected, then they should be fully connected. For instance, changing the name of a clip in the bin should change it in the timeline. Adding an effect or trimming should affect the corresponding clips between bin and timeline. Otherwise, the clips should just be completely separate instances. I haven’t been able to find an option to turn a clip into an independent instance, although I have to think it exists. Also, editing an instance of a title does change every other instance of that title throughout the sequence. I would prefer to be able to edit them separately without having to duplicate them in the title editor.
Bin effects
Related to the above, it should be possible to add effects to clips in bins or keep effects on clips added to bin from timeline. It would also be nice to be able to group effects together in bins for a specific project. The effects window is better suited for global collections.
Clearer visual indicators that a clip has been adjusted in the effect controls panel
Even with the effects panel visible, you have to take a close look to see if there have been any adjustments to the standard settings. An indicator on the clip in the timeline itself would be useful.
Snapping should include the CTI
It should also include the blade tool, although the Cmd-K option to cut at the CTI position does make this less of an issue.
Smoother scrubbing
Scrubbing is pretty awful. While this is understandable with native footage, FCPX somehow manages to make this silky smooth at full resolution.
Color correction shape mask and better color correction in general
Simplify the primary functions of the 3-way color correction effect. Keep all the rarely used adjustments out of the way. I use Magic Bullet for some purpose, but I’ve always done most of my color correction within FCP. Put the most common adjustments front and center (or up top, as it may be). The highlights/mid-tone/shadows drop-down is inconsistent in what controls it pertains to.
FCPX’s color correction is actually one of its more underrated features. The way it allows you to layer corrections is dead-simple yet as powerful as anything in FCP7 or Premiere. Stick with the 3 wheels, but rely less on hard to control tonal ranges and add simple keyframe-able shape masks for secondary color correction.
Better support for shared media access
AVID is king in this arena and Adobe needs to improve. It should be possible for multiple editors to safely work on the same project files and share media over a server.
MINOR ISSUES
More vertically compact playback/edit control area in source and program panes
Make room for either a taller timeline or bigger previews. The virtual scrubber and shuttle controls are the nifty things you drag with the mouse the first time you ever use an NLE and never touch again.
Larger icons in icon view
Remember size and position of bin windows
Playback resolution setting indicator
There should be an always-visible indicator of the playback res setting in the preview pane that’s easy to adjust without right-clicking.
Better markers for sequences and clips
Include colors and more keyboard shortcut control.
Clip sliding with keyboard commands
“Opt-,” (that’s Option-comma) should cause a clip collision, not overwrite. Either that, or “,” and “.” should slide, while “Opt-,” should overwrite. Opt-arrow should only extend an adjoining clip if in the middle of two clips. Basically, this whole arrangement should be re-thought.
Project browser should auto refresh/sort.
Option-drag on a Mac should always be copy, not move.
Copy is currently command-drag in the project browser.
Stop auto-save from interrupting adjustments in timeline.
Ideally, the auto-save should just be a background function, but it should at least wait until you’re not in the middle of dragging something.
Add ability to select a cut directly and add default transition.
CTI control
If you move the CTI while it’s in play mode, it should continue to play from that spot after you release the mouse, not stop there.
Show number of frames being adjusted during keyframe adjustments.
Enable/disable specific effect parameters/keyframes.
Clearing an effect should clear keyframes as well.
Or have an option to clear both.
Position controls
There should be a preference to make the default position 0.0 x 0.0 (as opposed to 50% of whatever the resolution happens to be), and include a reset button.
Through-edit indicator in timeline
And a quick way to join clips, such as a right-click menu option.
Border controls for images
Auto save location preference and functionality
In FCP7 I set the number of auto saves to keep to the maximum of 100 and Premiere can go even higher. I have always used this feature as an additional backup and archive system, which has come in very handy. Those files add up, however. So, I prefer to auto-save to an external drive. Also, auto saves in Premiere continue to occur whenever there are unsaved changes. This means that if you make a small adjustment and then leave Premiere for a while, it will keep auto saving the same iteration, which is not only inefficient but leads to my next point….
Tame the bouncing dock icon on auto save
While using other apps, there’s no need for the dock icon to bounce every time Premiere performs an auto save.
More/clearer control over cache locations
There should also be an option to reset the cache/render file locations to their defaults.
Export source range
When exporting, remember the last-used setting of the export source range (or just dump the whole work area thing as I previously suggested). It’s too easy to cut off a portion of the video when the export defaults back to the work area every time.
Larger timecode display
After spending hours and hours editing, the current timecode for clips and sequences is something you want to be able to track without squinting. Use the letters h,m,s and f instead of colons.
Simple slug
Creating a black matte works okay, but it involves a few extra steps.
Snapping toggle
FCP allows you to quickly toggle snapping while dragging a clip. Upon releasing the clip, the snap toggle returns to its original state. Premiere could use this fucntion, but I suggest something simpler. Holding down the “S” key should always turn snapping on regardless of toggle state, while releasing it returns it to however it was set before.
Ability to dock the audio meters along top
I like to give my timeline as much horizontal space as possible. I’ve noticed a lot of users keep the toolbar up there, myself included. I think it would be a good place horizontally aligned audio meters as well.
More detailed tool tips or hover explanations in preferences
For example: The options regarding XMP data should make it clear that the original files will be modified by Premiere. This caused me problems in other applications. (After researching these settings, I understand that various Adobe applications use this information to share resources, but it’s still very unclear what the specific benefits are or what functions are lost without this option.)
More detailed support documents
The online support documents on the Adobe site very good. They are nicely arranged and easy to search, but they could be more detailed and offer fuller explanations. (Peruse the support forums and you will discover all kinds of debates that could have been easily cleared up with one concise line in a help document.)
Icons and button design
Icons and buttons are often too small, too similar, and too crowded throughout the interface. Take some style tips from Apple on this one.
NEW FEATURE WISH LIST
Footage auto-analysis: shot recognition, color correction, and color match
If only Apple had just added these features and others to the FCP7 framework. Adobe can do it better though, by using smart folders in addition to the traditional bins that we know and trust (anything besides those dreadful iMovie-style “events”).
Effect previews
In the 64-bit era, there has to be a quicker way to preview effects.
Ability to render in alternate formats
Namely ProRes or DNxHD. This would save me considerable time on exports by allowing me to select the “use preview files” option.
PluralEyes functionality
Okay, I suppose I should just purchase PluralEyes...again.
Many, many more effects!
How about starting with the missing vignette effect? Just because an app is “pro” doesn’t mean you should have to custom build every effect.
Many, many more looks!
Will most of them be cheesy looks I would never touch? Sure...but give me some templates to play with before I tweak the look down to my exact specifications.
More speed!
FCPX, for all its flaws, blazes on any modern Mac. This probably comes back to hardware acceleration, but while Premiere Pro on a Mac isn’t slow, it doesn’t blow you away.

You hit the nail on the head, Peter.
I recently started giving Premiere Pro CS5 a try, and was shocked by the amount of bugs and usability issues. I'm not even going as deep as you in the features, but the most glaring evidence of the lousy interface is that timecode offset bubble that appears everytime you move a clip in the timeline... the bugger appears just under your mouse pointer and won't go away, so if you try to just move a clip down a track quickly, and let go of the button ONTO the bubble, it acts as an obstacle and your drag/drop fails ! seriously, Adobe... don't tell me nobody has stumbled upon this one during beta-testing ?
Ditto on the autosave that basicly interrupts anything you're doing. No background saving in 2011 ? At first it bothered me to no end so I disabled the autosave. And then a few hours later, Premiere crashed, and didn't even try to recover my work. I lost 2 hours of intricate work. I put autosave back on, and learned to endure the constant, annoying save dialog. And it's not like the save process is instant... even the simplest of projects takes 5 to 10 seconds to save... on an SSD... come on... let me work already...
Of course, a headache-inducing implementation wouldn't be complete if the autosave didn't trigger even 30 seconds after a manual save. If I choose an interval of 5 minutes, just autosave 5 minutes after a manual save !
In thumbnail view, you can reorder the clips manually. It's all fine, but you can't reorder them by name or date or length, unless you switch to list view and of course, lose the thumbnails.
Dragging and dropping a clip in thumbnail view is a chore, because the palette doesn't scroll when the mouse reaches the edge. You know, when you want to move something at the top all the way to the bottom... so you have to drag, let go, scroll one screen, drag, let go, scroll one screen... it's a joke. Even the timeline can do it. Heck, it's a software standard, nowadays.
Renaming a clip and pressing ENTER takes you back to... the top of the folder !?! How many times I've renamed files that were at the end of the thumbnail view, and for each clip, I had to scroll back down. Time waster.
Want to locate a clip from the timeline, in the project ? the locate function takes you to the folder. But not to the file, you have to navigate towards it manually.
Ditto on the up/down arrows. I haven't found a way to jump from cut to cut like in FCP7. How often do I need to jump to the starting/ending points ? much less often than jumping to a nearby cut.
How come I can't reorder filters in the effects pane ? sorry, I can actually reorder the filters... provided I take them from the bottom and move them up. Moving effects down doesn't work. It's driving me crazy.
Conforming happens more or less anytime. Without reason. And even if the Media Cache is already full of conformed files.
When moving the boundaries of the work area, no timecode/offset appears. You need to let go of the button and THEN hover, then you'll know the exact time/duration.
Try scrolling up in the timeline, it scrolls to the left (which is stupid, it should scroll up). Now scroll up on the tabs of a palette : they scroll to the right !?!
Can't select an active track. Direct consequence : copy-pasting a clip overlaps anything that's on track 1. Say I want to duplicate clips on the same track... I can't do it.
Copy-pasting between projects doesn't keep the transitions, only the order of the clips.
Have you tried doing a frame freeze on a reversed clip and setting proper in/out points for the freeze ? Good luck.
"Duplicate" command, when you right click on a thumbnail, is way too far from the cut/copy/paste commands at the top, even though they're quite related.
The other day I transcoded footage with different audio parameters. Just the audio had changed. Upon opening the project, Premiere wanted me to locate the files, which I did. And it failed miserably. Instead, I opened the project ignoring the missing files, and then re-linked them. I pointed Premiere at the first missing file, and had to confirm the replacement. Premiere saw all the other missing files in that folder, and began prompting me FOR EACH SINGLE FILE !!! two hundred and forty three of them, precisely. Can't I have a "yes to all" button in 2012 ? and why does the relinking work inside the project and not when you open a project ?
That was just from 3 days with Premiere Pro CS5. I still can't believe it. Just to think people bashed Final Cut Pro X, praising Premiere in comparison... Sorry, but they both have serious issues. And Premiere doesn't even have the excuse of novelty.

Is it possible to make/get a scrolling list in Muse?

So I have been trying all types of built in widget combining and online searching and am unable to find out how to make a scrollable content area. I want to make a a content area that is 300X600px and has 3 Tabs or something similar at the top. Inside each tab I need to put around 70 300X100px content areas for text/pictures. Obviously I can't put all 70 in there and have it fit in the 600px area, so I need them to be behind everything and simply scroll into view with a scroll bar or scrolling motion on a touch pad. Anyone know how to do this or where to get a widget that could accomplish this?
Something similar to the one found here Rental Listings - All 166003 Rentals - Zillow
Thanks

You can use tabbed panel for this , where the container will include the content listed and users can scroll the content on page. The tabs can be used to list different contents and categories like the example you have provided.

Scroll list down by page wise using mouse

hi experts,
how can we scroll a list page wise rather than line wise using scroll button of mouse .
my requirement is to generate a list consisting of 38 lines per page and each set of 38 lines
should come in a new page that i have done using new-page, but problem is when i scroll
down a list using mouse scroll button next page should be displayed rather than scrolling
line by line . just like using pagedown key of the keyboard,
thanks in advance.

I think this is not possible, I don't think controlling the mouse operation is possible

Adobe CS6 not listed in installed programs?

As the title states when I go into Control Panel and "Uninstall a Program", my Web/Design Premium CS6 isn't listed. I wanted to uninstall it before installing CC. Is there any other way to safely uninstall CS6 besides the control panel? It's not causing any issues but it's taking up a nice chunk of space....

Run the Creative Cloud Cleaner Tool, manually trash the folders and files.

FireFox 7 displays YouTube related videos thumbnails in small scrolling list with blank thumbnails.

FireFox 6 used to display them just like IE and other browsers... in a long list to the right of the video. Now there is a small list only 5 thumbnails high (which makes it a scrolling nightmare) and only the first 10 thumbnails have pictures, the rest are blank white thumbnails. I'd hate to revert back to using IE but if this isn't acknowledged and fixed soon I'll have no choice. It's driving me nuts. I was really starting to like FireFox. Too bad I can't attach a screenshot as it would be easier than explaining it.

No, nothing changes. It reloads still telling me to join. I tried it in the latest Safari as well, but no dice. My default browser is Chrome, but I've been trying everything that doesn't work in Chrome in Safari because I might as well, right?
I mean clearly it's an issue with my Mac, because if it were just a browser thing, YouTube would be working in other browsers, and if it were a YouTube thing it'd be happening to everyone else, and if it were a connection thing it'd be happening to everyone else on my connection, but it's not so it must be my Mac but then...you know...what is it? Apart from YouTube and the weird images thing, which seems to be a recent development, I haven't noticed any other symptoms.
But the YouTube page won't even load properly for me all the way. It's not limited to the video, it's the entire page refusing to load any images or anything other than plain text. Except, bizarrely, the login page, which looks just fine.

CS6 desktop lists app as "Up to Date" when deleted

Hi there.
After installing Illustrator CSS I accidentaly deleted from my MAC the old Illustrator CS6, but when I need to copy and paste vectors into Flash CS6 I get an version error. I need to reinstall Illustrator CS6 now but it appears as “up to date” in my Cloud desktop..
I did my homework and tried to find a solution before asking:
I’ve found this link: http://forums.adobe.com/thread/1222611
This link http://forums.adobe.com/thread/1222590
This link http://helpx.adobe.com/creative-cloud/kb/aam-lists-removed-apps-date.html
This link http://helpx.adobe.com/creative-suite/kb/cs5-cleaner-tool-installation-problems.html.
None of them worked for me as I followed the instructions: Removed the OPM.db file and relogin into the Creative Cloud desktop application. Reinstall the Creative Cloud desktop application.
Run the uninstaller in the Applications/Utilities/Adobe Installers folder to remove the program listed as up-to-date. (Illustrator CS6 doesn't appear in that list.)
I also run the Adobe Creative Cloud Cleaner Tool for Macintosh, but Illustrator CS6 it's not there either.
I just need to RE INSTALL Illustrator CS6 after being deleted from my MAC.
Can someone please give me a solution that is not in any of those links above.
Thanks!!!

Carogaspari the information is not being sent to the Creative Cloud desktop application as it would initate the download process.
As an alternative you can download the CS6 software from http://helpx.adobe.com/x-productkb/policy-pricing/cs6-product-downloads.html. When you enter the Adobe ID for your Creative Cloud membership it will apply the licensing from your membership.
I would recommend that you continue to work to resolve the difficulties with your web browsers not being able to send the AAM link information to the Creative Cloud desktop application. You may want to try temporarily disabling your security software to see if you have the same behavior. If you do then I would recommend working directly with our support team. For the best assistance, I recommend our chat support at http://adobe.ly/yxj0t6. Our chat representatives can provide a personalized experience to resolve the issue you have described.

Uninstall Bridge CS6 - not listed in programs/control panel

Hi - I have updated my photoshop and bridge to the new Photoshop Creative Cloud. I have successfully uninstalled Photoshop but when I look for Bridge CS6 (64 bit) there is nothing. The new Bridge CC is listed. Any suggestions on how I remove the old program?

and then installing any cs6 application including photoshop cs6, will bridge cs6 be installed aswell?
To return to the original question, yes
Installing PS CS6 also installs Bridge CS6. You can have multiple versions of CS installed on your computer without problem, as long as you have space. You can also multiple versions of PS open and active at the same time if the resources of your computer are sufficient.
However you can have only one version of Bridge open and active at the same time. If you want to switch to an older or newer version you first have to quit the open Bridge and start the other wanted version to use it.
Also they use different Cache libraries so after opening it first have to read the cache (normally a short task) and also caching the new files (depending on amount and file size this can take some time) will start upon opening.
