I can't access Adobe Color Themes in Illustrator

Hi,
I've dowloaded the latest Illustrator from CC and when I click on Windows on the menu bar I don't see Extensions like I see in Photoshop. I can't access the Adobe Color Themes like I can in Photoshop. This same issue applies with InDesign. Do I need to reinstall Illustrator and InDesign?
Thank you,
Robert

Kuler was the extension. It is now renamed to Color and not an extension anymore. You can access the Color themes from the Window menu or from the Swatches panel (click the little icon at the bottom of the panel).

How can i add Adobe color theme?

It says its suppose to be part of the initial setup, but I can't find it anywhere. Can someone please direct me to how i can download the themes?

To get the Adobe Color Themes panel in InDesign CC 2014, you need to be updated to the October 2014 or February 2015 releases. The current version is 10.2.0.69 if you look under About InDesign.
Once you're updated to the correct version of InDesign, choose Window > Color > Adobe Color Themes. The panel will connect to the Adobe Color website. Click My Themes to look at themes you've saved. Click on Actions > Add to Swatches panel to download the themes to InDesign.

InDesign Adobe Color Themes only displays in Essentials Workplace

I am probably missing something but I can't get Adobe Color Themes to display in anything but the Essentials workplace. Tried with a few eg Advanced plus my own custom workplaces.
Is this (a) a deliberate restriction, (b) a bug, or (c) I have forgotten to perform some ritual or incantation?
I am using Adobe InDesign CC 2014.2 on a Windows 7 64 bit platform.

Try restoring your InDesign preferences:

Why do the colours from Adobe Color Theme creation change when I try to use them?

I've been exploring the Adobe Color Theme creator in InDesign. There are the three tabs: Create, Explore, My Themes. In the create tab I can create a theme of colours, get the combination just right, and then save my new theme. However as soon as I save any colour out to the swatches, the colour changes! It's driving me nuts.
[Original Colour] -Colour it comes out as-
[green turquoise] -prussian blue-
[strong, bright red] -darkish orange-
[warm purple] -faded dark mauve-
My best guess was that maybe the colour profile of the document was set to CMYK and that the colour themes work in RGB, but as far as I can determine it's just "North America General Purpose 2" and the Working Spaces include both RGB and CMYK. Therefore I'm stumped. I do not have the expertise to figure out what is going on and these are significant colour changes to have a really strong, vibrant colour palette turn into something much more muted.
And if this piece of information is of any use, my yellow doesn't seem to change at all.
Any ideas please? I've tried searching for it, but maybe I'm not putting in the right combination of keywords. Hopefully I'm just being obtuse and someone will tell me to put a checkmark in a box somewhere.

There are some slight value changes between the Theme and the Swatches, but we're only talking a change of 1 or 2 and so the colours appear to stay true now. Total pain to have to do this extra little step every time. =)
a huge, glaring, and sloppy problem which really ought to be fixed by Adobe pronto.
You can batch change the color mode of swatches if you select all of the swatches and double click them. Or, you can simply leave the Lab values and let the conversion to the correct CMYK space happen when you export to PDF.
I'm guessing the fix won't be coming soon. The original Kuler app had the same color management problem. It's hard to see how they will fix it and keep Color Themes as a cloud based web app.
When you convert the Lab swatches the CMYK values you get will depend on the document's assigned profile, so if you make two document's with different profiles assigned you'll get different CMYK values when you convert the Lab values. Here is US SWOP vs US SNAP

How to use downloaded Adobe color theme (.ase) in Photoshop cc?

How to use downloaded Adobe color theme (.ase) in Photoshop cc?

I can confirm this functions but there is no indication it's been successful and the swatches appear in the Swatches panel, *not* in the Libraries panel where I would expect them. My issue is that IMO this should not even be an issue, because a palette created on color.adobe.com should just show up in PS CC unless I'm not understanding the intended behavior.
Anyone?

Can't access adobe website using safari 7

I can't access adobe.com on my late 2008 MacBook running Mavericks OS X. Every time I try to access the website it says that Safari "can't connect to the server adobe.com"
I've tried resetting Safari and restarting my computer. I have Adobe Lightroom 3 installed on my computer.
Any help would be appreciated!

You, or someone using your computer, may have hacked the system to redirect queries to certain servers. The file modified is /etc/hosts.
The easiest way to fix the hosts file is to restore it from a backup that predates the modification, or to copy the unmodified file from another Mac. If you can't do that, then do as below.
Back up all data before proceeding.
If you have more than one user account, you must be logged in as an administrator.
Triple-click anywhere in the line below on this page to select it:
open -e /etc/hosts
Copy the selected text to the Clipboard by pressing the key combination command-C.
Launch the built-in Terminal application in any of the following ways:
☞ Enter the first few letters of its name into a Spotlight search. Select it in the results (it should be at the top.)
☞ In the Finder, select Go ▹ Utilities from the menu bar, or press the key combination shift-command-U. The application is in the folder that opens.
☞ Open LaunchPad. Click Utilities, then Terminal in the icon grid.
Paste into the Terminal window by pressing command-V. I've tested these instructions only with the Safari web browser. If you use another browser, you may have to press the return key after pasting. A TextEdit window should open. At the top of the window, you should see this:
# Host Database
# localhost is used to configure the loopback interface
# when the system is booting. Do not change this entry.
127.0.0.1                              localhost
255.255.255.255          broadcasthost
::1                                        localhost
fe80::1%lo0                    localhost
Below that, you may see some other lines. The first 10 lines should be exactly as above, apart from differences in the blank space within lines. Otherwise you can't use this procedure—STOP and ask for guidance.
If the contents of the TextEdit window are as described, close it, then enter the following command in the Terminal window in the same way as before (by copy and paste):
sudo sed -i~ '11,$d' /etc/hosts
This time you'll be prompted for your login password, which won't be displayed when you type it. Type carefully and then press return. If you don’t have a login password, you’ll need to set one before you can run the command. You may get a one-time warning to be careful. Confirm. Quit Terminal.
If you see a message that your username "is not in the sudoers file," then you're not logged in as an administrator. Log in as one and start over.
That will fix the hosts file. There is now a copy of the old hosts file with the name "hosts~" in the same folder as "hosts". You can delete the copy if you wish. Don't delete the file named "hosts".

Can't access Adobe Muse

I went from a 30 days trial membership to a 1 year Creative Cloud Student and Teacher Edition membership so I could acces Muse again. Trying to start up Muse (installing the program is succesfull) but it keeps on saying that it can't connect to the server. "A firewall is possibly blocking access to the server" is what the message reads. Tried everything, including turning off the firewall and antivirus software but still zero result. Removed Muse and followed the steps to remove various different affiliated files and folders, no positive result so far. Anyone familiar with this problem?

It's been a month now and I'm still unable to start-up Muse. I have deleted the old Adobe programs on my computer and installed Adobe's CC again. I'm still able to open and use every program in the creative cloud membership like before except for Adobe Muse. It still keeps on telling me it can't connect to the server.Can't access Adobe Muse

Hi All, Can I access Adobe reader internal variables in my pdf? for example location, file size, creator etc.

Hi All, Can I access Adobe reader internal variables in my pdf? for example location, file size, creator etc. I want to create a hyperlink in my pdf $Location/another.pdf?

Thanks Gilad.
let me rephrase my requirement. I have a group of pdf files where one pdf has hyperlinks to the other pdfs
parent.pdf
-- child1.pdf
-- child2.pdf
when I click on the child hyperlink I want the child.pdf to be displayed in another window/reader
If I have the hyperlink as file:./child1.pdf it does not work. It needs a complete path.
So when I create this file in MSWord first, Can I artificially create a placeholder for the directory and append the child.pdf?
suppose the properties say Location = /tmp/pdfs/
can I have in the hyperlink something like file:/$Location/child.pdf and when reader is used it substitutes the url
so I get file:/tmp/pdfs/child.pdf
Hope I explained this.
thanks
-Francis
OK, let me have a very simple requirement. Can I create a pdf and when I open it
there is one line that says - This File is in xxx directory.
where xxx is the directory name where the file is. If I have the file in /tmp then it should say This file is in /tmp directory
and if I copy it to /other then open it, it should say This file is in /other directory.

Does the Adobe Color Theme have a scroll bar?

I can't view and explore all the themes from the color theme panel in Adobe In design? I only see some of them. When I try to drag down to see other themes I can't. The answer to my question might be simple but I can't seem to find it. Please help.

Jeremy,
I'm able to scroll fine with my mouse. There is no scroll bar UI, but the panel is scrollable. Just like modern web browsers.
Can you tell me more about the problem you are facing?
Thanks.

Adobe Color Themes Panel in PS CC. Does it show all your themes?

For some reason, my Color themes Panel in PS CC2014 does only show a certain amount of colour themes, and it is not resizable any further. There is also no scrolling available. Only half of my themes show up that way. I can bump them to my favourites and when synced again they show up in the favourite section, so they are synced … Anyone out there found a way to access all your themes from within the Panel/MyThemes?
thx,
J

FAQ: UI - How can I change the color theme, size of the text, or turn off the application frame?

CHANGING THE INTERFACE COLOR SCHEME:
The Photoshop CS6 default interface is dark, but if you prefer the lighter interface you are used to from earlier versions,
you can change it back in the appearance area. There are 4 default color themes.
Mac Photoshop > Preferences > Interface
Windows Edit > Preferences > Interface
CONFIGURING LARGER FONTS:
For those who need larger fonts, you can also change the UI Font Size down in the type area.
Be sure to restart Photoshop to see the changes.
TURNING OFF THE APPLICATION FRAME
CS6 opens now by default in "Application Frame". You can go Window>Application Frame in the main meu and uncheck this

Select the title / text and then click on the "i" (inspector). A colored pin wheel shows up after you click on the square box directly below the font settings inside the inspector window. Then simply drag the dot to the color you want. Like this:

Can not access Adobe camera raw in PS CS5. Have a mac OS 10.9

How do i access adobe camera raw for images fro Nikon D 7100.

Since photoshop cs5 can only use up to camera raw 6.7 and the Nikon D7100 requires at least camera raw 7.4, photoshop cs5 won't open those files directly.
Camera Raw plug-in | Supported cameras
You can though, use the 8.6 DNG Converter to convert the D7100 nefs to dng copies, which then photoshop cs5 should open.

Can't access Adobe After Effects CC - being asked for serial number

Hi there,
I've just spent an hour on a very slow customer chat box, and then it cut off.
The guy gave me one suggestion: delete the database file from AppData > Local > Adobe > OOBE
It didn't work.
So, I'm not sure what to do. I can't access my product as it keeps asking for a serial number, but I'm on CC so I don't have one, as far as I know.
Very frustrating.
I appreciate any help you could provide.

Hi TrickNick35 & Nerioo,
Please follow the steps mentioned in the Kb Article mentioned below .
