Help with CS3 Adobe Version Cue Server problem.

Adobe Version Cue Server (CS3) doesn't display in the system prefs, niether will install a working copy off of Install disc after removed. There seems to be no way to fix this, In bridge it can't connect. All I get is a bunch of errors.

CS3 is known for the worst version ever of Bridge and also not supported any longer, you are using Bridge version 2 and current CC version is Bridge 6.
Also Version Cue has been discontinued per CS5
There is a blog post about a fix for a certain problem but not sure this is what you need (it is for a Mac), you can give it a try:
http://blogs.adobe.com/jnack/2008/03/a_tip_on_photoshop_mac_stability.html
Also keep in mind Bridge is not developed nor official supported for use over a network.
And in general, when something happens with Bridge first thing to try is resetting the preferences holding down option key (Mac) or ctrl (Win) while restarting Bridge.
But also I'm not sure you are in the right forum. Do a forum search about Version Cue using the Adobe Forums as source and see what result you get.

Version Cue Server 4.0.1 Update Problems

I've recently run into a problem with Version Cue Server 4.0.1. I've been using "Adobe Creative Suite CS4 Master Collection" without any problems until a couple of days ago when I ran the updates.
The updates locked up and failed on Version Cue, and after that, every time I right click on my desktop or in Windows Explorer, I get the error message:
"The specified module could not be found. C:\Program Files\Common Files\Adobe\Adobe Version Cue CS4\4.0.1\VersionCue.DLL"
Then everything crashes and reloads.
I called tech support and they said to reboot in a simplified mode, create a new administrator account, and reinstall version cue. Didn't work. I tried reinstalling both from the CD and from the downloaded update. Same problem. The installation goes most of the way and then fails.
I uninstalled Master Suite and was able to right-click again without problems, so I went back to a simplified boot and tried re-installing the software...which crashed my computer and caused the same right-click error message.
As I said earlier, everything worked fine right up until the point I ran the updates, so I know the software will run on my computer (Vista 32bit service pack 1).
Thoughts?

All,
I personally have been driving this issue at Adobe. As mentioned before, we've been hindered by the fact that we cannot yet reproduce the problem on a machine in our offices. But I've been doing all that I can to coordinate between customers and Senior Computer Scientists who are investigating this.
Here's the new information that has been learned by remotely debugging on customer's machines (great thanks to those who have made time for this!).
The problem is isolated to the binary patching function in our update components. This means updates that modify the files on your current system are impacted. Updates that simply replace the existing files with all new versions of the files, are not affected. While I don't have a complete list of which update uses which method, I can say that the recently released Photoshop CS4 and InDesign CS4 updates use a full file replacement method, so they should be no risk.
It was earlier believed that this problem only happened in the context of the Adobe_Updater.exe, which downloads the updates and runs them in with UI suppressed. This is now known not to be true, so "manual" running of the updates is not a valid workaround (sorry for those who spent time trying this).
There is some suspicions that the issue has to do with the temp folder being used by the updater. I've tested a private build with a change in this area on a couple customer machines, and got more elegant failures (didn't cause apps to stop working), but still no success
Lourens Van Der Jagt,
I found your observation about the "FAST IO DISALLOWED" messages to be very interesting, and forwarded that, along with results of my recent tests of the private build, to the devs.
One other thing that I found on the Vista machines I've looked at, which I'm curious about. On all machines I've looked at, the NTFS junction (looks like a shortcut) named "Program Data" in the root of the user folder is visible, while all other junctions are not. And, the junction can be browsed. All other Vista systems I've ever seen do not display this unless protected system files are asked to be displayed, and then they cannot be browsed.
I want you all to know that I have been working hard to represent you and get a resolution for this. I appreciate the hardship it presents to you, and I take it very seriously. Please keep the dialog going, and I'll try to keep updating here and in other threads as much as I can.
Sincerely,
Matt

Thank you Bturko in the future only migrate/copy/transfer your documents and settings. Adobe applications especially are not designed to be transferred from one computer to another. It is possible to recover however. I would recommend the following steps:
Run the uninstaller located in Applications/Utilities/Adobe Installers
Run the CC Cleaner Tool to ensure complete removal - Use the CC Cleaner Tool to solve installation problems | CC, CS3-CS6 - http://helpx.adobe.com/creative-suite/kb/cs5-cleaner-tool-installation-problems.html.
If you need to download a fresh copy of the installation files they can be downloaded at Download CS3 products.
Run the installer and reinstall Creative Suite 3.

SMC Firmware update NOT compatible with Adobe Version Cue

After 2 days of SMC Firmware install & reboot problems (and many other folks in this forum), I went to my Apple Store Genius who resolved the issue by turning off Adobe Version Cue at startup.
It is now a know problem at Apple.

Now it seems logical that if OSX can boot in Safe Mode it's probably a StartUp program conflict ... and NON-universal programs are likely culprits according to the Apple Genius.

Program uninstalled incorrectly (Adobe Version Cue CS 2)

Hey all!
I'm a fairly new mac user and when i recently wanted to uninstal Adobe Version Cue CS 2 i accidentally deleted the program files without running the uninstaller. The result is that OS X (I'm using 10.4.5) now thinks that Version Cue is still installed and displays it under system preferences while none (or at least most) of the files are actually not on the computer. I obviously tried reinstalling Version Cue but the installation CD wouldn't let me as it also detected that Version Cue was already installed. Does anyone know how i can "tell" OS X that Version Cue is not there anymore so I can reinstall it?
I was thinking of installing Version Cue on one of my friends mac and then copy the program files (especially the uninstaller) to mine. I'm guessing this could solve my problem but it would obviously be a lot easier if I could fix the problem by myself.
Thanks for any help.

Hi, PsychoNiko.
See the Adobe Support document "Manually remove Adobe Creative Suite (2.0 on Mac OS X)." Follow the steps therein pertinent to Version Cue. You may want to compare those steps with the Adobe Support document "Message "Version Cue is already installed on this machine..." appears when you reinstall Adobe Creative Suite (Mac OS)." The latter seems to apply to CS1 and comparing the two documents indicates some of the Version Cue file names have changed from CS1 to CS2.
When you have questions about third-party programs, it is often best to start your search with the Support Web site of the firm that publishes the program. I found the above in minutes by searching the Adobe support site.
To avoid uninstall problems like this in the future, see my "Uninstalling applications" FAQ for important advice on uninstalling software.
Good luck!

Trying to set up a version cue server

I'm new to Version Cue, never used it. I'm trying to use Version Cue through Bridge. In the Content window I see Browse Servers and Recent Projects, but not Start My Server. In the Bridge Preferences Adobe Version Cue and VersionCueSDKLoader are checked.
I checked both my original PS CS3 installation disk and the Adobe Installer utility to see if I needed to install anything but Version Cue doesn't come up as an item to install.
I'm using OS 10.5.2 on a MacBook Pro.
Would appreciate any advice.

I have a similar problem. I started to set-up my server, but when my browser launched I only got my home page, not the version cue set-up screen I was expecting to see. When I went back to the bridge I no longer had the option to start a server. Where do I go from here?

Help with opening Adobe Reader and downloading updates

I can not open Adobe .pdf files any longer (this started yesterday, prior to that I could open adobe files).
When I double click a .pdf file I get this notice on my screen: Windows cannot access the specified device path or file. You may not have the appropriate permission to access file.
So I went to the Adobe download site to download a new copy of Adobe. When I start the download I get this on the screen: The instruction at "0x0e3a0068" referenced memory at "0x0e3a0068." The memory could not be written. Then two options are listed: click OK to terminate or cancel to debug. So I click on cancel and I get this on my screen: Internet Explorer has closed this webpage to help protect your computer. A malfunctioning or malicious addon has caused I.E. to close this webpage.
I don't have AVG running, I do have avast but I've disabled it. I ran Registry Mechanic and an I.E. erasure program but nothing helps.
I have gone into I.E. and reduced the security level to its lowest state but no joy.
So, any ideas or suggestions on what's the problem and how to overcome it would be appreciated. Thanks, in advance, for your reply. Jim R.

Hi Mike..tried that as well but no joy. A friend of mine was looking at it all and noticed that it was an I.E. thing as far as not letting me redownload the reader so I went to Mozilla Firefox and I could download a new version but....whenever I attempt to open a .pdf file I get that message, "Windows can not open the specified device, path or file. You man not have the appropriate permissions to access the item."
Damn...this is irritating as I need to get to some of thos files as I need them for a Journal I'm working on as editor-in-chief.
It all worked just fine last Saturday but starting Monday when I was on my flight out to D.C. no joy.
Sigh...Jim R.

Help.

Lion does not support PowerPC Applications (Photoshop Elements 4, Quicken, etc.), that ran in Rosetta on the previous Intel OS X's.

So you will need to either update those Applications, stay with Snow Leopard or create a dual boot system.

Adobe Version Cue CS2?

Hi everyone,
Sorry for posting this question in this forum, but I thought i'd get a quicker response than on the Adobe forum as there doesn't seem to be much life about it.
What exactly does Adobe Version Cue do? i've no idea, and it's pinned to my top menu bar and does not function. It's stuck on update 2.0 and I cannot update it to 2.1 because it keeps saying update failed.
Just looking to know if I can delete it or will it come in useful? I run the rest of the programmes that came along with it in Adobe Creative Suite C2 like Photoshop, InDesign etc... but not this Cue.
Thanks in advance!

Adobe Version Cue is revision management software intended to arbitrate conflicting changes when multiple people are editing the same documents at the same time. If you're familiar with Unix or software development, Version Cue is like CVS, Subversion (SVN), Mercurial, or GIT. In general, if you don't already know what Version Cue is, you don't need it.
The Mac implementation of Version Cue has never worked right, so the best advice I found is to avoid installing it in the first place. When I recently had to re-install my Adobe CS1 on Leopard, I just did a Custom Install, and unchecked the Version Cue option. Everything has worked perfectly since then.
I found these directions on removing Adobe Version Cue from CS2 in the middle of this page:
http://www.macfixitforums.com/printthread.php?Cat=&Board=Forum36&main=775306&typ e=thread
"I used System Preferences to turn off Version Cue, then followed MacFixit's fix....
delete the following files (or place them in a separate folder for safe-keeping):
• Adobe Version Cue folder from the Applications folder
• VersionCueCS2.prefPane folder from the Library/PreferencePanes folder.
• com.adobe.versioncueCS2.plist file from the Library/Preferences folder.
• AdobeVersionCueCS2 folder from the Library/StartupItems folder.
then restarted my mac."
Hope this helps.

I get this message: /Library/Application Support/Adobe/Adobe Version Cue CS4/Client/4.0.0/VersionCue

Suddenly get this message and Photoshop won't function
Fatal error missing component
/Library/Application Support/Adobe/Adobe Version Cue CS4/Client/4.0.0/VersionCue.framework
Onv CS4 is old but it was working. I bought it online legitimately.
I don't think I have the discs
How can I reinstall the software at no additional cost?

Hi there! Because the forum you originally posted in is for beginners trying to learn the basics of Photoshop, I moved your question to the Photoshop General Discussion forum, where you'll get more specialized help.

Disable adobe version cue?

hi
the problem is, the adobe version cue (cs2) has a "preferences error" when you try to access it in the preference pane. i assume this is because it's on rosetta and some things don't work properly until the universal version.
but is there another way to get rid of the version cue icon & menu from the taskbar?
it causes my shapeshifter theme to look weird because that part is being left out.
thanks for suggestions in advance

How to make my form be compatible with older adobe versions

Hello,
I created a dynamic form with adobe lifecycle 9. As users try to use the form, they get this error:
"This PDF form requires a more recent version of Adobe® Reader® or Adobe Acrobat® software. While this form may appear to be working, some elements may not function correctly or may not appear at all."
Is there a way to make the form be compatible with older adobe versions?
Thanks.

In the File Menu -> Form Properties under Default Tab, choose the Target Version of Adobe Reader that you expect users to have the minimum version.
If any of the functionality does not compatible with the selected version, then the warnings will be displayed under report tab. You can access it by going to Window menu -> Report.
Thanks

Scripting System Preferences/Adobe Version Cue Preferences

I'm trying to disable the Adobe Version Cue CS2 status bar menu on a number of machines at the same time. I can't figure out how to reference the check box for it though.
tell application "System Preferences"
activate
set current pane to pane "com.adobe.versioncueCS2.VCPrefPane"
tell application "System Events"
[click the box, darn you!]
end tell
end tell
So far, I can successfully bring up the version cue preference pane. everything i try in the system events section of the script, i receive a "NSReceiverEvaluationScriptError: 4" From reading on various sites, I conclude that I'm just not references the check box correctly.
I've found the following information about the checkbox from UI Element Inspector:
<AXApplication: "System Preferences">
<AXWindow: "Adobe Version Cue CS2">
<AXTabGroup>
<AXCheckBox: "Show Version Cue CS2 Status in menu bar">
Attributes:
AXRole: "AXCheckBox"
AXRoleDescription: "check box"
AXHelp: "(null)"
AXValue: "1"
AXEnabled: "1"
AXFocused (W): "0"
AXParent "<AXTabGroup>"
AXWindow: "<AXWindow: "Adobe Version Cue CS2">
AXPosition: "x=512 y=584"
AXSize: "w=357 h=18"
AXTitle: "Show Version Cue CS2 Status in menu bar"
Actions:
AXPress - press
Can anyone provide some guidance?

The code below should work.

Why cant I label folders on the bridge that are located on Version Cue Server

Can someone tell me why I cannot label or rate folders that I can see through bridge but the actual folders are on a version cue server.
I can label each individual image or indesign file inside the folder but I cant label the folder itself or give it a rating.
Any ideas?
