Do you recommend upgrading from Acrobat X to XI from an Accessibility feature standpoint?

I believe my workload will start to include me making documents accessible. Is there a significant difference in sophistication of the Accessibility features? I saw that there were 'improvements' from X but could I still do just as well (working efficiently) with X for a while? Thank you in advance.

It has been awhile since I used X. As I recall XI offered enough small improvements all around that it seemed well worthwhile to me to upgrade. But for accessibility features alone - not sure. The accessibility checker in XI seems better than X, but neither is really adequate in my opinion. The free PDF Accessibility Checkers (PAC version 1.3 and 2) from the Swiss foundation Access for All are far more thorough. I would never rely on either Acrobat checker on its own. In short, X worked fine for me for accessibility work, XI is a bit better, both need PAC backup if you are serious about accessibility.

If you want to sync it to the iPad from that Mac, you need to upgrade it to at least 10.5.8.
If you want to copy the music to another Mac, you don't. Move the iTunes folder of the item in the Finder's sidebar over as you would any other folder. If you put it somewhere other than the Music folder, launch iTunes with the Option key held down and point it to that location.

Hi All, I have been using the adobe CS 5.1. What do you recommend upgrade my CS? or get the subscription on a yearly basis, thanks in advance for your input here,

The decision is ultimately yours. You have to consider your preferences and reasons for use.
If you are using the software primarily for personal projects, then have a suite might be all you need, and the one you have now might suffice for that as well. If you are a professional who needs to be on the cutting edge, then you probably want to have the subscription working for you.
Upgrading to a new CS means getting CS6, which is likely to be that last of the CS releases. If you do that you pay for it one time and what you get when you pay is what you will have until it becomes obsolete somewhere off in the future, except for any corrective updates that might be provided. It should hold up to be useful for some number of years.
If you purchase a Cloud plan, you pay for it repeatedly over time - basically a monthly fee - but you get updates and new features as they are released. There is always a chance that newer updates could eventually out-spec the machine you own, requiring a hardware update to continue on with new releases.

They also send the emails just for registering PSE, as long as you agree to let Adobe spam you when you register. And sometimes it's possible to get the special upgrade price even when it's not officially on, if you call adobe sales and ask nicely. It depends on the sales rep you get.

Can you download Upgrade to Acrobat 9 onto a new computer?

I have Acrobat 6 on my old desktop PC, and received an email inviting me to upgrade to Acrobat 9 for the discounted upgrade price. I plan to buy a new PC very soon, so I prefer to buy the upgrade and download it on my new (soon to be purchased) PC. Can I do that, or do I have to have the actual old version on the computer onto which I download the upgrade ?

Hi there,
Please be careful here. I imagine you are referring to Adobe Reader, for reading PDF files.
Adobe reader is freeware from Adobe website, they have never charged for this software.
I suspect you have received the spam/phishing email. Please see here http://blogs.adobe.com/psirt/2010/09/alert-adobe-reader-upgrade-email-spamphishing-scam.ht ml

If you've "upgraded" from EA6500 to EA6900 please share your results

I have have had EA6500 Version 1 for 15 months. It is getting a bit long in the tooth. (Hardware reset button no longer works, software UI reboot function does not work), unit will stop working once a week or two and require a 30 minute power disconnect to reset.)
Any pros, cons, happiness or regrets?
Thanks.

Acrobat Pro XI Crashes with every Accessibility feature

I have just been in Acrobat Pro XI and for the fourth or more times, I have tried to get some accessibility editing done in various PDFs.
I was just in the Reading Order panel. After about two adjustments, I tried to move one more item up in the reading order, and Acrobat crashed (second time within minutes, just after installing the latest update).
I think I will have to go back to Pro X, which is far more stable.
In particular, this happens when I grab the tag of a table within the reading order panel and tried to move it up or down in the reading order.

I have Acrobat Pro XI and it rarely if ever crashes (Windows Vista). I manipulate things in the Reading Order, Content and Tags Panel frequently. So I'm afraid I can't solve this one. However I would suggest Repair Acrobat Installation whenever there are problems. The interaction between the reading order panel, contents panel and tags panel is a bit wonky. Move something in one, and it will often move around in the other. Sometimes it's not possible to get them all in perfect alignment. If your Pages are set to "Use Document Structure" the AT should use the Tags Panel. So when I can't get the Contents and Tags Panels to Match I defer to the Tags panel.
When things disappear check in the Content Panel. Items at the top of the Panel are beneath those lower down--like layers. You can move things around (shading and borders in tables are what I have the most problem with when running Commonlook and with files saved as PDF from MS Word.) I don't have the opportunity to work in Indesign much. Most of our deliverables come as Word files.

Upgrade to Acrobat XI Standard from X Pro

I'd like to upgrade to Acrobat XI. I currently have X Pro, when I attempt to purchase from Adobe site, it prompts me to enter my current version, but only lists 9 and X Standard. Can I use the upgrade option to go from X Pro to XI Standard?

Hi SeanAccent,
You cannot upgrade from Acrobat Pro to Standard version. I would suggest to contact Adobe Customer Service team and ask for upsell and they should be able to assist you.
Hope that helps

Can you upgrade from Final Cut Pro 3 to Final Cut Pro Sudio 2 with upgrade?

Does anyone know if you can upgrade from Final Cut Pro 3 to Final Cut Pro Sudio 2 with $699 upgrade?
I purchased Final Cut Pro 2 years back and then purchased the Final Cut Pro 3 upgrade. I have not used it in years, but now I want to upgrade to Final Cut Studio 2. Is this possible by just purchasing the upgrade?

Apple's web page has the requirements:
http://store.apple.com/AppleStore/WebObjects/BizCustom?qprm=78313&productLearnMo re=MA886Z/A
The $699.00 upgrade version requires a valid serial number from a commercial version of Final Cut Studio, Production Suite, or Final Cut Pro 1, 2, 3, 4, or 5. Academic and not-for-resale versions are not eligible for this upgrade.

What are the recommended steps to upgrade from CF7 to CF8

I have read all of the documentation for how to upgrade from
CF 7.02 to CF 8. Well there is actually only one blurb in all of
the CF docs.
"Upgrade installation You can upgrade from ColdFusion MX,
ColdFusion MX 6.1, and ColdFusion MX 7. When upgrading from
ColdFusion MX, ColdFusion MX 6.1, or ColdFusion MX 7, the installer
preserves the existing settings and installs in a new directory,
automatically assigning ports that do not conflict with the
existing installation."
OK that sounds simple enough, so i went ahead and installed
it. Well it did not work, now I am stuck somewhere between 7 and 8.
My basic step, as I can best recall at 1:00AM.
* Select Multi server Configuration
* Select install path, I used D:\JRun4
* This is where my existing cf7 install was located
* installer told me port 8300 was being used so it gave me
port 8306 instead
* Selected d: for ColdFusion8DotNetService install path
* Select Passwords for admin and rds
* installed cf
* received error after install
(Adobe_ColdFusion_8_InstallLog.log)
ANT Script Error:
Status: ERROR
Additional Notes: ERROR - jrun.xmlUnable to remove existing
file D:\JRun4\bin\jrun.exe
* rebooted
* can't login to cfadmin at port 8306
* tried to login to cfadmin at port 8300, everythin works
* it appears the cf7 services are still running,
* didn't notice any new cf8 services, excpet the dotnet
stuff
Any assistance would be appriciated.
I am on windows 2003/CF8EE/Multiserver configuration

Essentially CF comes with the updates that will become JRun 4
Updater 7
integrated into it. (The beta of Updater 7 is under way).

Use the CAR file, XML file formats have changed between
versions.

What you are describing is a simultaneous update of JRun and
CF. For
just an update of CF you need to redeploy the CF EAR file as
described
in the JRun manual. For just an update of JRun you have to
wait until
updater 7 is released (or join the beta and file bugs if you
don't like
the procedure).

The latest release is only updater 6.

Use a CAR file for that.

In place upgrades are never clean. In my book, an upgrade
means
rebuilding from scratch.

"Serial Number you provided is valid, but a qualifying product could not be found on this computer" when upgrading from LR5 to 6

I just downloaded desktop version of LR6 (upgrade). I (unfortunately) have more then one email address associated with Adobe account. I "think" that the last purchase of 5 (upgrade from 4) might be associated with one of the other email addresses. I have atempted to logon to these other "accounts", and cannot. I have done "forgot password" but do not get the email from Adobe.
Any suggestions would be most welcomed!

The message identifies that you have purchased an upgrade version of the applications and it is asking you to identify the previous version of that application that you are upgrading from and then to provide its serial number.
If you did not intend to purchase an upgrade version then you probably need to cancel that and purchase it at full price.

Hi Basel,
Honestly, I wouldn't suggest a direct upgrade from 8.2 to 9.0. This is a *major* upgrade. The recommended path to reach 9.0 would be from 8.2-->8.4-->9.0
Here are the release notes for 9.0:
http://www.cisco.com/en/US/docs/security/asa/asa90/release/notes/asarn90.html#wp690047
Per above document:
If you are upgrading from a pre-8.3 release, see also the Cisco ASA 5500 Migration Guide to Version 8.3 and Later
for important information about migrating your configuration.
Once you are on 8.3/8.4 (I would suggest 8.4 as a lot of issues were fixed post 8.3 as that was a huge transition from 8.2) upgrade to 9.0 is fairly simple.
Major part is upgrade from 8.2 to 8.4 as configuration changes and few things can be broken as a result. I would highly recommend you to check these docs before attempting an upgrade and also do it with some maintenence window so as to correct things in case they broke:
Following doc talks about 8.3 but it is applicable to direct upgrade to 8.4 as well:

Upgrading from OS 8.6 to 10.3

Do I need to install 9.2.x before installing 10.3 or is that included in the full 10.3 install? I'm trying to line up the software needed before upgrading my hard drive and memory.

OS 9.x does not come with OS X. However, you do not need to install OS 9 in order to install OS X. OS 9 is only needed if you want to use Classic to run non-OS X applications. If you don't have an OS 9 installer, then you will need to get an OS 9.1 or higher installer CD. You may find it at eBay, Amazon.com, or other Mac online sources.
Because you are upgrading from OS 8.6 you will need to reformat the hard drive using the OS X Installer. Once you boot the installer you can select Disk Utility from the installer's Installer menu. Use DU to reformat the hard drive. I recommend you do that as follows:
1. Boot from your OS X Installer Disk. After the installer loads select Disk Utility from the Installer menu (Utilities menu if using Tiger.) Be sure to use the installer disk for the version of OS X you intend to install.
2. After DU loads select your hard drive (this is the entry with the mfgr.'s ID and size) from the left side list. Click on the Partition tab in the DU main window.
3. Set the number of partitions from the dropdown menu (use 1 partition unless you wish to make more.) Set the format type to Mac OS Extended (Journaled, if supported.) Click on the Partition button and wait until the volume(s) mount on the Desktop.
4. Select the volume you just created (this is the sub-entry under the drive entry) from the left side list. Click on the Erase tab in the DU main window.
5. Set the format type to Mac OS Extended (Journaled, if supported.) Click on the Options button, check the button for Zero Data and click on OK to return to the Erase window.
6. Click on the Erase button. The format process will take 30 minutes to an hour or more depending upon the drive size.
After the above quit DU to return to the installer and proceed to install OS X.

Upgrading from Logic Audio Platinum 4.8.2

Yes yes... I know... I'm working in the dark ages. I've been running LAP 4.8.2 on my powerbook for the past 5-6 years. It was just so stable I never wanted to upgrade. Well the powerbook died and I just picked up a new Macbook Pro and Logic 7.2.
So this weekend I will begin the migration, but I have a few questions.
Will I be able to open my old song files?
Will my old environments work?
Is there anything I need to do to convert the 4.8 files to 7.2?
I've also downloaded the new driver for my MOTU 828. Any known problems there?
I assume the Unitor 8 driver for my AMT8 should be built into Logic... right?
How different is 7.2 from 4.8. Are we talking different universe here or just different planet? Same basic functions and language, just added features and pretty interface... I hope.
Any good tutorials or training dvds you recommend to get me up to date on the new features?
And finally... I will be running initially on a USB 2.0 drive for storing the audio. Is this going to seriously limit performance? It's only for a short time until I get a firewire expresscard and firewire 800 drive. But I'm curious if this will seriously restrict track count.
Thanks for any help in advance. Any other advice on the upgrade is welcomed.
Rick

I assume the Unitor 8 driver for my AMT8 should be
built into Logic... right?
If I'm not mistaken, when I installed 7.x I believe that my Unitor8+AMT8 worked immediately.
How different is 7.2 from 4.8. Are we talking
different universe here or just different planet?
Same basic functions and language, just added
features and pretty interface... I hope.
I came from 4.8.1 straight to 7.x. So I can tell you that it's not a wholly different planet, but there are indeed plenty of new things to get used to. You'll be happy to know that automation is a breeze to run, though there are some caveats to observe when automating multi-instruments.
Some of the window behavior is not the same, i.e., if you're working with a QT movie window or any of the preference pane-type windows that have numerical input fields, you have to select one of the non-float-type window (like arrange, an editor) in order for keyboard-based transport controls (like space bar=play) to work properly. If you have, say, the synchronization pane open, which has two fields for SMPTE times, inadvertantly hitting the space bar without first selecting a non-float window will wipe out the last-selected field in the floaty window. Same if you have the metronome pane displayed -- forgetting to select a non-float window before hitting space bar or any other key results in the MIDI channel of the downbeat click being wiped out. This is a really incredibly annoying and clumsy interface change from what you're probably used to on 4.8.2.
Also, there is no longer a windowshade function on windows as there was on OS 9.
So I'd say that there is going to be a new learning curve, but fundamentally it's the same software with additional features.
VERY IMPORTANT: do not use AMS to define and configure your MIDI objects (if you have any). Use AMS only to ensure that your interface is being recognized, and, for the creation & enabling/disabling of IAC instruments. You will be best served to create any new MIDI objects from scratch entirely within the Environment and not via AMS.
There are probably a million things I could tell you about making the transition from 4 to 7, but I'll leave it here for the moment. If you have questions like "on L4 I could do XYZ but I can't seem to do it on 7", post here!
Best,
