Do the Adobe Gods read this forum? ( sorry to blaspheme)

Self help is fine but I wonder if Adobe read the posts on this forum. There does not yet seem to be an official response to the flash player unresponsive plugin issue that is looming as REAL issue. Flash player is such an integral part of the web that I am amazed that there has not been a fairly rapid response from those who produce such wonderful products. I know we shouldn't whinge because its free but can someone please (bow, scrape, grovel) from Adobe heaven please try to address this very frustrating issue?

The Flash Player developers regularly visit this forum, and they do answer questions that are answerable.
I do believe you that you have a problem with Flash Player, and yes, many other users have posted similar problems.
The problem that Adobe has is that they cannot reproduce it.  I cannot reproduce it.  Software problems are very difficult to diagnose if they cannot be reproduced.
I remember one user who posted one or two years ago that he would always get Flash Player hung up or not responding when he has more than 2,500 Flash Player tabs open on Firefox.  Well, that is certainly not something I am going to try and reproduce.
If you can tell what exact steps lead to your problem, maybe then the Adobe engineering team will be able to reproduce it.

  • The more i read this forum the less i want an Iphone!

    From reading this forum it is clear that the Iphone is absolutely riddled with problems. I would really love one but they seem to be so dodgy. Every 5 minutes there is a new page of people having problems with their Iphone!
    Should i stick with my Nokia?

    The iPhone is not riddled with problem.
    What you have to keep in mind is that of the people who come here 95% of them are having an issue.
    The best analogy I ever heard was that this is an iPhone hospital. 90% of the people/phones are sick 5% are here to help/doctors and 5% are visitors. You wouldn't walk into a hospital and think that 90% of the population was sick, would you? Of course not, because it wouldn't be a representative sample.
    The vast majority of iPhone users are having a pleasant, problem free experience and thus never set foot in this forum. My iPhone works great with no issues, making me one of the "doctors."
    Take this forum seriously but with a grain of salt

  • Does Adobe actually read this forum ??

    Ok,
         I have only been in this forum for 2 days (after calling adobe and being forwarded to this forum), but after looking through dozens of posts..... I do not see any posts by a Adobe support engineer or even a Adobe employee?
    Does anyone at Adobe read this "support" forum?
    since there is no phone support, no email support, and only support venue is this forum.

    The previous responses are correct in that there is no guaranteed response to every question from an employee, but Adobe staff and Community Professionals are active in many topics and will respond where appropriate. You can identify the role of a user by the badge under their profile image, and I can see a number of employee responses within the last day across the Acrobat forums. There is no rule that an employee has to post here; some do and some don't but it depends on how busy they are. Adobe does not have dedicated support staff patrolling these forums 24/7 so the people posting here all have "proper jobs" to do, like writing the next version of your software.
    Adobe Reader is a special case in that as a free product, direct support is limited. Users of free or evaluation software will be directed to these forums in every case, but if they require 1:1 support they can pay for an incident ticket via the link posted above.
    I've checked your account and I can't see a specific question which hasn't been answered to some extent - please post details of your problem if you feel something hasn't been answered.

  • This is ridiculous i want my money refunded immediately! The web site is a joke and it should be alot easier to contact a support team rather than having the whole world read this note through an online forum. Absolutely ridiculous! Someone better contact

    This is ridiculous i want my money refunded immediately! The web site is a joke and it should be alot easier to contact a support team rather than having the whole world read this note through an online forum. Absolutely ridiculous! Someone better contact me back to resolve within 24 hours@

    I feel the same exact way! I am absolutely livid with how much I have been charged over these past few months. How is it I was informed by my school that Adobe would only charge us $9.97. After I signed up, I dropped the course which required us to have Adobe Cloud. Now I check my bank account and I see I am continuously being charged $32.04 every month. This is abdolutely outrageous! Now I'm calling trying to cancel it and they're telling me I have to pay an extra month. This is mind blowing! Something needs to be done.

  • I am using the Adobe Acrobat Reader on a mac and I followed all the directions to copy an image but when I press paste only half of the image appears or it appears as an empty square. What can I do to fix this?

    Hello,
    I would like to inform you that not all the browsers and online PDF readers support copying text from a PDF. If you have opened the PDF online, please download PDF file to your computer and then open the file in Adobe Reader.
    Please share a screenshot if the issue still persists.

    In case you did not find it, the following is a copy/paste of the Announcement on Premiere Elements 19/NVIDIA GeForce
    that appears at the top of this forum.
    Premiere Elements 10 NVIDIA Video Card Driver Roll Back
    If you are a Premiere Elements 10 user whose Windows computer uses a NVIDIA GeForce video card and you are experiencing
    Premiere Elements 10 display and/or unexplained program behavior, then your first line of troubleshooting needs to be rolling
    back the video card driver version instead of assuring that it is up to date.
    Since October 2013 to the present, there have been a growing number of reports about display and unexplained workflow
    glitches specific to the Premiere Elements 10 user whose Windows computer has a NVIDIA GeForce video card. If this applies
    to you, then the “user to user” remedy is to roll back the NVIDIA GeForce video card driver as far as is necessary to get rid of
    the problems. The typical driver roll back has gone back as far as March – July 2013 in order to get a working Premiere
    Elements 10. Neither NVIDIA nor Adobe has taken any corrective action in this regard to date, and none is expected moving forward.
    Since October 2013, the following thread has tried to keep up with the Premiere Elements 10 NVIDIA reports

  • Please do not post questions about Adobe software in this forum

    Hello, welcome to the forums.
    What you may not realise is that each Adobe product has its own specialist forum, and it's very important to choose the right one. This forum isn't about products, it's about comments on the forums themselves.
    So, please go back to http://www.adobe.com/support/forums.html and choose the right forum. But first, make sure you know the name of your product.
    When you look at the list of messages in a forum, there is a box above that describing what the forum is for. Take care to read it carefully, or you may put your message in a forum where there are no experts who understand your question. Also, check to see whether there are any "FAQ" (Frequently Asked Questions) sections in the product forum, and search for previous discussions about the question you wish to ask before starting a new one.

    this is maybe because users are directly forwarded to this forum when looking for a contact in the otn-contact page. i suggest to change the contact-site and the direct the users to the "forums home" page.

  • I'm not sure if im in the right room to ask but, i got a new job and my w-4 is online threw the adobe acrobat reader ans is filled out but it wont connect to the browser to get it submitted. what is wrong?

    I'm not sure if i am in the right room to ask but, i got a new job and my w-4 is online threw the adobe acrobat reader ans is filled out but it wont connect to the browser to get it submitted. what is wrong?@

    I doubt that the W-4 has a submit button. If you are using Reader XI (actually the topic of the Reader forum, not this one), you should be able to save it and then print and deliver. If it is set to be submitted by the browser, then it may be your Reader and the browser are not talking properly. If there is a generic URL that you can provide that has the W-4, we might be able to give you more info. A lot depends on what your particular form looks like. Hand carrying it should always be an option.

    Hi adityabhargava01-
    My first suggestion is to upgrade to the most recent version of Firefox by going to this link:
    http://www.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/new/
    My second suggestion is to read this article on how to many your preferences on how Firefox deals with PDFs and all other file types:

    I hope that helps!

  • For the good people of this forum

    A great thanks to the good people of this forum. I got landed my dream job as a Java Developer today and wish to thank all the people in here which helped me out lots of times.
    Thanks again

    Man you are pessimistic, you are so going to die
    young.Yeah, I am pessimistic you got that right. Butwhen
    one has been in the software industry as long as I
    have (a loooooong time), Oh, so it's already too late for the "die young" part?Depends on what "young" is defined as (it's subjective).
    Without disclosing my actual age (prefer to remain as anonymous as I can), I should still have many years still ahead of me.

  • Anyone from Blackberry Reading this Forum? If so....

    Hi there, just became aware of this forum after it being mentioned over on Crackberry.com.
    Anyways, if you work for Blackberry and are reading this forum and this thread, then PLEASE take stock of all that is said in this Z10 thread over on Crackberry.com here:
    What Tweaks do you want to see in next BB10 software update?
    And.  Please.  Make sure it is thoroughly shared and heard at Blackberry...
    Many of us *really love* our Z10's, but can't help but feel that Blackberry/RIM *yet again* came out with an imperfect awesome device. 
    Is it impossible to have a nearly perfect smartphone because, although the Z10 is the best smartphone on the market according to me and others, it certainly has MUCH to be desired? Is it impossible to add (or *return*) to the Z10 most if not all of the MANY MANY MANY really great features we miss in the 7.0 system outlined in the above thread, because if it had most if not all of those features, you would be selling a lot more devices over the coming months to-be-sure?
    If I were you and worked for Blackberry, I would see that Thorsten Heinz et al knew that, for the benefit of its many Z10 customers and the future of the company, Blackberry should come out with some kind of serious PR and SOON to assure us that 10.1 or other future updates will add many of the features that kept so many of us afloat in the hopes for so long that Blackberry would come out with the very best device, while we now sit here wondering why Blackberry left out SO MANY features we loved and frankly depended on with 7.0 etc, making our Z10 imperfect.
    If you do not, or you tell us that we will not see many of those features, or leave us wondering much longer, then it is hard to imagine that we will stick with you forever and that Blackberry will be the flagship of smartphones it could be and succeed.
    Thorsten et al, you do want to keep and grow your customer base, don't you? You do want to strike real concern and embarrassment in Apple and Android, don't you? You do want to not have future repeats of last week's sell-offs of the BBRY stock because of one tech firms' downgrade of the company's future over false rumors, but rumors still, of a high rate of returned devices, don't you? You do want to hear loudly from us that you have the most amazing phone on the planet ever, don't you?!
    Then please hear and acknowledge our feedback, and execute much more of what we as Blackberry fanatics came to expect in great anticipation of what has turned out to be a three-quarter-baked awesome smartphone, the Z10, please. 

    OK, HTML got me again. Try this code:
    case 62: // '>'
    stringbuffer.append(">");
    break;

  • The Adobe Acrobat/Reader that is running can not be used to view PDF files in a Web Browser. Please exit Adobe Acrobat/Reader and exit your Web Browser and try again.OK. I followed the instruction and the problem still persists.

    I got the following pop-up when I tried to open an online PDF file:
    The Adobe Acrobat/Reader that is running can not be used to view PDF files in a Web Browser.
    Please exit Adobe Acrobat/Reader and exit your Web Browser and try again.
    I tried many time, and it really doesn't work.
    The plug-in I have is Adobe Acrobat 8.3.0.280

    After I upgraded to Firefox 5, I had the same problem and I did a work around temporarily. I went the tools menu, then Add-ons, then clicked the "Plugins" on the left side (4th one down). I "disabled" both Adobe Acrobat 8.3.0.280 and Adobe Acrobat 10.1.0.536 using the disable buttons on the right side. PDF files now open again. However they are outside the actual browser.
    My guess is that Adobe didn't catch up yet with a new update to work with Firefox or vice versa.
    Hope that helps!
