INVASION?  Help with Frameworks onslaught. Adobe Explosion?

I woke up this morning to Zero space on the hard drive. I have been working on setting up backup routines but that is meant to take stuff off the hard drive. I started to investigate using a program called "Tidy Up". It revealed thousands upon thousands of files seemingly related to Adobe programs. I use Adobe Reader 8 and Photoshop Elements 6 but I'm seeing a myriad of entries in directories called Framework and CS3. I don't have and never had CS3. Do I need to keep all of those? I see double font entries - the fonts in Library and then buried deeper is the same font in an Adobe directory. I don't use Bridge but find I have Bridge and Bridge CS3. My question is what can I get rid of if I'm only using Adobe Reader and Photoshop Elements 6.
This term Frameworks or Framework appears over and over again. Sometimes as part of a larger entry such as "PrivateFrameworks/" or "Ruby.framework" or "JavaVM.framework/". "Frameworks" is always under the "Library" directory but then takes off with other subdirectories including Ruby. The bulk seems to lie under the "Frameworks" subdirectory under Library.
My question, what is Frameworks? Do I need it? How can I get rid of it and CS3 and Bridge CS3 if I don't use those programs?

I'm using the software Data Backup 3 by Prosoft. It was recommended at the Apple Store. What has confused me is that I was backing up one external drive to another external drive (two backups of pictures). I was not backing up from the mac hard drive yet (except for what had been done prior to this problem).
I don't understand the difference between Copy, Versioned, or Synchronize. I believe I requested copy when I ran the most recent backups.

  • Help with N8 and Adobe Premiere?

    Hi, I am using Adobe Premiere Pro CS4 v4.1.0.
    I recently got a Nokia N8 and am now trying to edit the video recordings, but am having some problems.
    The phone records at 25fps 1280x720 using H.264 MPEG-4 codec, with sound in Stereo 130kbps 48 kHz.
    When I create a project and load the .mp4 file into it, the first problem I see is that it reads it as 500fps and the video is only a second or 2 long.
    I  then interpret the footage to the correct 25fps, and the video then works fine. However,  the sound seems to not be there.
    I've noticed that due to Premiere interpreting it as 500fps, it thus only plays the first second or two of the sound when left as 500fps and plays all the video in that second or two, and thus when changing to the correct 25fps, it is therefore only the two seconds playing over the entire minute of video.
    I also  tried changing the file into other formats. The only other one that  kind of worked was .mov. It allowed the sound to work perfectly, the  video loaded at correct frames, however, when playing the video on  premiere, it then showed black screen for most of the clip.
    Have  tried to find out about this online and installed a couple different  codec packs and media players, but nothing helped with this problem in  Adobe Premiere. However, the clip played fine in the media players, such  as RealPlayer.
    If anyone has any advice on this, it would be  appreciated. I would prefer to fix this issue correctly rather than have to manually interpret or transcode the footage each time I want to edit it.
    Btw, I also posted this question on a forum with Nokia N8 Users, and others also tried it out and had same or similar issues. They also tried on CS5 and it still didn't work.
    *UPDATE* I just tested again to change the file from .mp4 to .mov by simply renaming it, and this time it loaded perfectly into Premiere. However, I have to do this on my XP computer, as my Windows 7 doesn't change the format of file by simply renaming it. Hence, I would still like help with getting it to recognise the .mp4 correctly though in the first place, rather than having to rename my files each time on the XP computer.

    Moshpit84 did you utilize the uninstallers located in Applications/Utilities/Adobe Installers to remove your installation of Premiere Pro?  Also what version of the Adobe Application Manager are you currently using?

  • Need support person for help with loading the adobe reader

    We purchased Adobe reader but it will not load onto my computer and per my boss I need to get help from you.
    my phone number is 813-445-7295 ext 104

    Nobody will ring you, sorry. But perhaps we can help (this is not Adobe staff).
    Let's start with what you purchased. Check your receipt. Adobe Reader is free, nobody should have charged you for that..
    Then, let us know what you mean by "will not load". If you get any messages, please let us know the exact words.

  • Please help with Contribute issue- Adobe or anyone!

    My issues are many- I don't know where to start. First, as a long-time Adobe customer, I can not believe how support has declined- I really miss my "support package" from the early 90's when I spoke with a person who really knew how to address my problems and/or questions. I am so tired of being outsourced to someone who has no idea how to address my problem- only to send me to "Document #8932023912 03" off of the Adobe website. I want to talk to someone who KNOWS and APPRECIATES this product, and who understands its internal behavior (like what I get when I call MAC SUPPORT). I will pay for it! I have invested thousands of dollars on Adobe software and am now at an unacceptable standstill.
    My small business relies on the Adobe Creative Suite 4 and the Contribute program. Up until now, I have never had a complaint, especially after moving to Mac a few years ago. Troubles started after two things (still not sure what the culprit was) - installing Snow Leopard and installing a Wacom Bamboo tablet (on the same day- my bad). Well, Illustrator, Photoshop work just fine as well as my other non-Adobe programs. But I can't even open InDesign (will post this on the proper post) or Contribute. So Apple had me deduce that I needed to create a new User and try things there. I eventually migrated to this new user but still, I cannot use Contribute.
    I have set permissions with the program and contents of the folder- in addition to my Contribute keys to no avail. I can't even open it. Nor can I open it in my Root user which at least lets me run In Design. I am at a total loss and I need to update a website for my client. PLEASE someone, I would so greatly appreciate any advice or instruction as to how to run Contribute on my new user. Or in my Root user. I just need to get it to open! Reinstall did nothing PLEASE HELP.
    A special note to anyone from Adobe: I want to talk to someone via a support package-- NOT outsourced. Does this fee-based option exist? It doesn't seem to from the main support number. If someone can help direct me, I would appreciate the proper instruction to do so. I need to get my InDesign running again and I have already invested multiple hours, days with Adobe support with NO solution at all. This is unacceptable in my mind, especially for the moneys invested.
    Thank you in advance... Aimee M.

    I totally share your views on Adobe period. I loved Macromedia., they also answered all my questions, then Adobe had to buy them out! I called them today (sales Dept., that's where they answer rather quickly., of course), they explained the following: You can pay for a live person, but the prices differ  in that they come in packages. In other words, you can pay a flat rate per hour for one-on-one OR pay for one-on-one tech support 5 times per month, and the amount of times per month vary from that point on., and so does the price!  I'm baffled! They are HORRIBLE!! . Like yourself, am on a standstill ever since I've been stuck with not being able to publish my site with current edits and it gives me a message whereas my own company name is "currently editing the page," so it keeps kicking out. I've tried everything, including but not limited to the following: going to the library and checking out books to troubleshoot; going on Adobe pages for support as well the Help features on the software program., etc...I'm exhausted!  ADOBE you guys need to reassess your Customer Care Support and your outsourcing business as well!!! YOU WILL LOOSE YOUR CUSTOMERS RATHER QUICKLY!!

  • Need help with upgrade from Adobe Creative Suite to PS CS4

    My old laptop with Photoshop on it crashed and I ended up purchasing a new laptop.
    I'm trying to reload my PS CS4.  I am using an upgrade from an educational Adobe Creative Suite Premium to the CS4 and when I loaded it on my old laptop I had to get installation help through customer service, but now customer service will not help me since it is CS4.
    When installing the upgrade, it tell me to select the product I already own.  I own the educational full creative suite, but am only upgrading the Photoshop.  I chose Photoshop CS and tried entering the serial number for the suite.  It tells me that the serial number doesn't match the product chosen.  Of course the only products I'm allowed to choose from is Photoshop CS, CS2, or CS3 and not Creative Suite Premium.
    The other serial numbers on this CS is Golive CO and Pagemaker Plug-in.
    I was told there are Adobe customer service reps here on the forum, please tell me what it was I need to do to get my Photoshop installed.
    Thanks

    i wasn't aware that you could get a ps4 at an upgrade price using an older creative suite produect.  i searched online and found this thread (http://forums.adobe.com/thread/476009) which makes it appear that was not a valid upgrade path.
    but, if you're confident that was a valid upgrade path, i'm pretty sure something will need to be done on adobe's end and no amount of manipulation, on your end only, will work.
    your best bet would be to get help in this forum from an adobe staff member like jeff wright who is very knowledgeable and goes out of his way to help adobe customers.  to that end, if i were you, i would start a new thread mentioning his name in your title and in your initial post explaining:
    you have the educational Adobe Creative Suite Premium and purchased a photoshop cs4 upgrade years ago that required adobe support help to install years ago. 
    that worked well until a recent computer problem forced you buy a new laptop and you are now trying to reinstall that ps cs4 and again need support help but have been refused help because cs4 is not current.

  • Help with updating and Adobe Application Manager (Max OS X)

    Hi,
    I am a resent new customer of the cloud (student and teachers) service. I have started encounter some minor but kind of annoying technical problems. Before I registered for a cloud account I was running the Adobe Master Collection (trial) version on my MacBook Pro (Mac OS X 10.8.2). I successfully completed the registration to cloud and began to download and updated the app's. It went fine, until I came across a small little problem with Premier Pro. I was trying to import a few *.MOV files for a uni video that I have to do over Xmas.
    Instead of spending time trying to figure out the problem I decide to uninstall and download/install all of the app on the my cloud hub, just incase it was something to so with my pervious installations. I couldn't directly re-download the apps via the cloud hub, so I had to re-download another trial version. However, now I can not get the Adobe Application Manager to work, I keep saying "Download Error, Please try again" I have tried it load of time, but keep getting the same message.
    Please Help,
    Damien

  • Help with uninstalling "old" Adobe Reader

    Since I trust anything Adobe 100%, I did not hesitate to follow a link (contained in "Adobe for Andoid" email from you to me) to install Adobe Reader on my new NOOK HD+ 32.  IT IS A "BAD" LINK, details were forwarded to Adobe by Chrome Support 7-2-13.  What I have been told from Barnes and Noble, Chrome, Google and Adobe "HELP" Professionals  is to uninstall the download.
    You'd think even a 56 year old tech-novice could handle this, right?!?  I Can't because the "Unfortunately System UI message freezes everything up until I respond "okay".... Between my "okay" and typing the "uninstall "  address to my Search bar, the "UI' message has taken over my screen and has frozen every  click I know how to make.  After doing this 5+times, all of the icons begin to shake and then the page completely turns itself off.
    I am hoping someone is able to advise me how to "uninstall" from somehere other than my Nook.
    Thank you very much,
    Mizrallen623

    It's really hard to say what's going on without knowing more about the system. It's possible that the program is generating an FDF (Forms Data Format) file and launches it, causing the PDF to load and populate with the data in the FDF. Folks have reported that recent changes to Reader have broken this type of thing. So you may need to go back to an even earlier version, such as 9.2 or 9.3, or somehow contact the developers of the application for help.
    Is this something that happens in a web browser?

  • Help with replacing an Adobe XI with an older version on Windows8

    I have Windows 8, Adobe Export PDF (which is an essential for me), and Adobe Reader XI. An online course that I am taking requires that I uninstall Adobe XI, and replace it with an older version (10.1.4?) in order to access class online textbooks. I am concerned and wondering if it will affect my Adobe Export or if it is compatible with Windows 8. Help? I want to try to find out if I will be facing any issues before I start messing with things.

    What is the problem with the Reader XI accessing these online docs?  All Reader versions should be fully backwards compatible.  Also I don't think Reader X was tested on Windows 8.
    However, if you really want to install Reader X, uninstall XI (from Control Panel, or using http://labs.adobe.com/downloads/acrobatcleaner.html), then download/install Reader 10.1.4 from http://get.adobe.com/reader/enterprise/ and update it to 10.1.9.

  • Need help with x-fi / adobe audition monitoring / input issue

    Hi all - I've been desperately trying to fix this issue for a long time now. This is the first computer problem that has really got me stumped since, well, since forever. I've searched all over and seen a few tidbits about this issue but I couldn't find anything that could help me actually solve my problem.
    The issue is that when I record in audition through the x-fi, as I record a second separate track, whatever I'm monitoring from any other tracks gets recorded onto the second track along with the new recording.
    I've found threads saying it's an issue with the mixer, however I'm trying to figure out the audio creation mode in the console launcher and I am absolutely unable to figure out how to be able to monitor track 1 while not having it get recorded to track two. I went through basically each strip and muted/unmuted to see what would happen and nothing ever worked. I also know that it indeed is recording the monitor, as overlaid (not printed) effects are copied to the new track.
    I'm using vista, with the following drivers for the x-fi and asio4all.
    driver:
    5.12.6.1201
    11/2/2006
    asio4all v 2.7
    Sound Blaster® X-Fi™ XtremeMusic (D) Sound Card
    What do I do?
    THANKS

    This may not help, because I've not used ASIO personally, and I'm not as sure of the SBX-Fi's internals, but CL has tended to design cards which have recording taps at each input and at the output of the card. Thus the hardware has supported (dry) recording of individual sources, unmixed, or the mixed output of the card. The Surround Mixer only provides for recording one source, and gives a menu of each source, plus a "What You Hear" source which is actually the (wet) mixed output. You probably only need to figure out how to set things to record a specific source while auditioning the mixed output, and there's probably a way to do that.
