Did I just get swindled?

I just bought CS6 Production Premium off ebay for around $1,000 and it came in a plastic dvd case with comparatively low quality printing. On the back, among other things, it said
"This is a complimentary professional installation media kit and therefore has no resale value by the end user which it was issued to. It may not be resold, copied, or otherwise distributed without prior authorization. This installation media kit is provided solely for installation purposes for Volume License customers who may or may not have internet access to download the application. This media kit is not intended to replace original installation media distributed by Adobe. The files contained on this media are the original files as are publicly available directly from adobe.com and may also be downloaded from adobe.com in lieu of installing from the provided media kit."
What should I make of this?

Sorry to hear that... Unfortunately, trying to buy any Adobe software off eBay or other online auction sites is not a good idea – Adobe does not recognize them as they're rife with bogus, unsafe, or unusable copies.
"Low quality printing" or low pricing is a certain tipoff of a scam. Hopefully, it's not too late to get your money back – if you can.

Did macromedia just get crappier with Flash MX 2004?

Did Flash just get cr*ppier? What the h*ll is going on?? Now
that we export our swf, we have to make sure that we f'in mask out
the working area? What genius came up with that bulls**t?? Also,
when we put actions on buttons we have to go thru a lot more sh*t
with typing up all the scripts?? not to mention they are a hell of
lot more bugs!!! c'mon Macromedia, some of us have time constraint
with real deadllnes, so why all the innefficiencies and added
frustrations?? You guys are suppose to make it better with each
version, not f*cking make it sh*ttier..get your head outta your
a$$es. FLASH MX 2004 IS A F'in RIP-OFF!!

"just" get crappier is a bit of an outdated statement - MX
2004 is flash version 7 and the currect
version is Flash 8 - MX 2004 came out well over a year ago.
You don't and never have had to "mask" out the work area - I
have no idea what you are referring to
- can you explain in detail what is or is not happening?
Yes they removed normal mode from the AS panel but brought it
back in flash 8 as "Script Assist"
which is even better.
You refer to "Macromedia" which is no longer (again, dating
yourself
) Adobe bought MM so I think
you may have just emrged from the technology cave so to speak

I had the free version and the advertisement said I could upgrade to the PDF-Print for $29.95 but when I went to order they charged me $39.95. Did I just get ripped off for $10.00?

I just purchased PDF-Print but did not pay the $29.95 as per the advertisement. I had to pay $39.95. Did I just get ripped off for $10?

Wrong forum (and software company). Here you have an Adobe Acrobat forum. So Acrobat is the application and Adobe is the company.
Be well...

Why did i just get an error from firefox 4 saying that someone was trying to push an update to firefox to harm my system?

I had firefox minimized while it was downloading a file and i was working in another application and a box came from firefox titled "Software update" which would normally mean firefox was going to update or needed to restart. but instead the box said " Someone is trying to trick firefox into accepting an insecure update. Please contact your network provider and seek help.". Now this has me puzzled as i am the only user of this laptop, and isnt mozilla the only people that can send an update to firefox? I've also been having some other problems as far as speed and plug-ins. mainly quicktime, last time i tried to launch a quicktime video in firefox. it wouldnt work. also when i had the previous firefox, i had more ram then i do with 4. i mean i used to with just firefox 3 running i would have 2545 or at least 2500MB of free ram and that would be with at least three or more tabs open. now i have with firefox 4 only running around 1600mb or free ram and nothing has changed with my system other than firefox.

Oops, sorry about that. I already had wondered why I had missed this thread.
It is best to do a clean reinstall and remove the entire Firefox program folder (C:\Program Files\Mozilla Firefox\) in this case to remove all leftover files.
Your bookmarks and other profile data are stored elsewhere in the ''Firefox Profile Folder'' and won't be affected by a reinstall, but make sure that you do not select to remove personal data if you uninstall Firefox.

Why did I just get an email saying "a sound was played on" my iphone at 3.06 this morning? I have my iphone hear - I was asleep with it beside me at 3.06 this morning.

Can anyone help me understand why I just got an email saying: "A sound was played on [silverlipplion's] iphone at 3.06 am today?
I have my iphone here with me. At 3.06 it was beside me whilst I was sleeping.

Must have been a server glitch or you would have definitely heard it. It plays loudly for 2 minutes unless you unlock it with your passcode.

MMS + add some text = 2 chat bubbles... did i just get charged twice?

I noticed when I send a pic using MMS and add some text to it, I get 2 chat bubbles; 1 for the pic and 1 for the text. Does this mean I got charged twice? I went to an AT&T store Saturday to ask someone and he said yes but the tone of his voice sounds like he was unsure. Is anyone else sending MMS with some text and seeing the 2 chat bubbles?

No. You can confirm that by looking at your usage/bill.

What happened to the armature in ActionScript 3? Did Adobe just get rid of it?

I was trying to animate a stick figure when I realized that there was an easier way to do it, which was an armature. I looked through the tools and didn't see one. I looked online, nothing was helpful. Can someone help me out with my problem?

open your cc desktop app>click apps>click filters&versions>previous versions>flash install>cs6.
you need not uninstall your flash cc/flash cc 2014 installation(s).

Did we just get a new trojan that apple missed or ?

I think we've all been duped and apple didnt even see it, that "flashplayer.xpt " is the winner it's an executable script from the browser it's been in there waiting for awhile now and its attaching to all your framework files or better yet replacing them this is a rough one boys and the worst part is, I think its been sitting to long to matter now

I found this about the scopedbookmarks
Bookmarks are an improvement on aliases used (among other things) by applications to keep track of files that may move at any time, like media files. In 10.7+, as Apple began to transition to sandboxing, it augmented bookmarks with "security scoped bookmarks" and incoporate them into the entitlements framework.
The ScopedBookmarkAgent handles applications requests for scoped bookmarks on your behalf; specifically, applications must use the ScopedBookmarkAgent to receive permission to read/write files outside their sandbox. Obviously, the ultimate authority to grant that permission is you, the user, and so the agent is asking you for that permission on behalf of the application.

5.1 is out today for T-mobile - why did I just get 5.0 last night? and why did I get Verizon Cloud - draining battery

5.0 messed up email, added Verizon Cloud and that appears to be what was using battery - can't find it to uninstall it - where is it?

Oh boy! What seems to be going on with the email since your update? Was the Verizon Cloud launched? If not, what happens as you go in to clear the app cache? http://vz.to/13JmFX8

Did I just get hacked/cracked by Comcast?

Sending this from my iPhone. Please pardon.
Intermittent svc from Comcast last two weeks. Multiple calls for service. Seems they are actively trying to not send technician. Have cancelled appts. without notification, lied that they called (AT&T and iPhone records), documented in online chat service appt that they then deny when missed. Multiple calls (recorded) to document.
But that's NOT the problem...
Normally, the online chat runs from within the Safari plug in. About 15 minutes into the chat a Java applet launches in the dock. I've never seen this before, except when launching a Java applet from the desktop. Never had it before with any Comcast chat. Safari internet plug in and Java applet both running w 2 separate PID's.
Can someone explain this never before seen behavior?

Cannot click on gmail icon, google maps icon, ect... there is just a blank bar and you can do nothing.

Do you have the latest version of the Google Toolbar?
'''7.1.20110512W''' is the latest, as far as I know.

When I turn on computer just get envelope with ?, so did an internet recovery. If I select reinstall mac os x (it is nac os x lion), it is blank where you pick where you want to install, nothing to pick. If I go to disk utility, to the left it lists "mac os x base system", but if I click on any of the tabs it is all grayed out.

Your HDD needs to be replaced. It apparently is dead.
Ciao.

I have had my IPAD2 for quite a while but haven't activated my cellular data for about a year. I am now trying to activate and when I go to cellular data, turn it on and try to tap view account i just get a message that says "connection to server lost".

I have had my IPAD2 for quite a while but haven't activated my cellular data for about a year. I am now trying to activate and when I go to cellular data, turn it on and try to tap view account i just get a message that says "connection to server lost". I could swear the last time I used cellular data you would see the signal in the upper left corner and I only see "no service" there, I am in a location where I know I should have service. Is there something I should do to my IPAD? I tried resetting, I tried clearing cookies and history in Safari (after reading a post n these discussions). I don't know what to do next. My IOS version is 6.1.3. I did go into Network from the general tab and I see it says "SIM not provisioned". HELP and Thank you in advance.

Hello Theresa818,
Thank you for using Apple Support Communities!
It sounds like the cellular data will not activate for some reason on the iPad.
I found this article that will help you resolve this issue here, named iPad (Wi-Fi + Cellular Models): Troubleshooting a cellular data connection, found here http://support.apple.com/kb/TS4249
Check for a carrier settings update.
Update your iPad.
Toggle the Cellular Data setting off and on under Settings > Cellular Data.
Restart your iPad.
Tap Settings > General > About. Locate the Carrier entry and make sure that your carrier is correct.
If your SIM card has SIM PIN enabled, try turning it off: Tap Settings > Cellular Data > SIM PIN.
Make sure you're in an area of good coverage. If the cellular data connection works in another area, contact your carrier to report the original affected area.
Reset network settings: Tap Settings > General > Reset > Reset Network Settings.
Restore the iPad as new.
If none of the above steps resolves the issue, make an appointment at an Apple Retail Store, contact your carrier, or contact AppleCare to troubleshoot further.
I know you may have done one or two of the steps here, so you can skip those.
Take care,
Sterling
