Is Adobe working on a fix for Ext. Mgr?

Most of the questions in this forum appear to be the result of a non-functioning Extension Manager. Assuming that by now we all know that the add-ons must be compatible with CC 2014, and assuming that we have updated the programs we use, we are all still finding problems trying to use add-ons. None of these questions has been answered, except to explain that some add-ons no longer work. That doesn't explain why add-ons listed as compatible with 2014 don't work, or why add-ons that show up in Ext Mgr in the list for a 2014 app do not show up in the app itself--i.e., don't work. I believe that if one can install and enable even one app for 2014 that works (e.g., new Kuler app), then the extensions window link won't be grayed out any longer. BUT, the rest of the problems remain.
This is very disruptive of many people's work flow. Is there any available answer? Is there a fix in the works? What are we to do please? I would appreciate any response at all from Adobe.

I agree with the above. Adobe applications are typically expensive and powerful tools but they lose their lustre when plugins/addon's do not function or require a PHD to install. I recently purchased a Plugin for Lightroom4.4 and have all but given up trying to install it. Seem to be a variety of ways to perform this but I've yet to solve it. So far my $$ have left my wallet but the product has not been delivered.

Adobe Flash Player 10 Fix for WinXP and Vista, IE7, IE8, Firefox, ect.(New Fast Fix)

(This is a possible solution for most users) I have found that inside the folder C:\WINDOWS\system32\Macromed\Flash (WinXP Home/Pro) (Computer > C: Drive > Windows > System32 > Macromed > Flash for Vista) there should be a file named FlashUtil10b.exe (IF NOT YOU SHOULD UPDATE AS SPECIFIED!) (or FlashUtil10a.exe or for older versions something similar depending on your version), which is the update utility for flash player. Click on this and if it updates, you will have to restart your computer. This should fix any missing files, and update you to the latest version.
On a side note to all those who read this, I downloaded and installed 5 different times, the same version, from different websites, all for the "new" flash version, and they didn't work (this also included trying to update Shockwave player itself). Apparently, going directly to the website and downloading a new version of Adobe Flash Player, and installing, doesn't uninstall the older version, (though it says it does nor does the uninstaller work directly from the website) nor fixes the problem. I assume they are aware of this problem, because they included this bug fix in revision 10b. This fix should work for those of you whom cannot view/see flash images as well. There also appears to be a bug/reference problem with the installation of IE8 giving the error "Missing Shockwave Decompression XTRA", when trying to play a Shockwave/Flash file, which seems also to affect Firefox and other browsers. It doesn't recognize that the folder or files that it needs in it, exist. I never had his problem before, until IE8 was installed. I checked which version I had in the system32 folder and found this updater built in to Adobe. Version 10a does NOT automatically update, but version 10b includes this fix. I currently had version 10a when I received this error, and began digging for a solution. Doing the update as described above fixed the problem, and updated it to version 10b.
The new flash version 10b has some new features, such as volume control, auto-updating, and several rendering options for those who may have a faster or slower computer/video card.
I found this works great for XP users but unsure of the Vista users. The process is the same for Vista and the update should still work the same, as long as you run it as Administrator, I assume. I have this also posted on wwwdslreports.com at http://www.dslreports.com/forum/r22115254-IE-IE8-and-Adobe-Flash-Question and here http://www.dslreports.com/forum/r22361930-Adobe-Flash-Player-10-Fix-for-WinXP-IE 8-Firefox-ect. It appears to work for everyone so far. I have not heard of any problems from users with this problem running the RC (Release Canidate) for Windows 7 yet.
I hope this works to your benefit.
Please leave a reply to help Adobe and other users know if this fix worked for you or not. If not, please explain what you did, and the effects your seeing, including operating system, site of the flash file trying to view, browser type (ex. IE6, IE7, IE8, Firefox, Opera, ect.), and I will try to help you as best I can.
(I would strongly recommend those not using IE8, or Firefox 3.5, get the updated versions)
If your looking for uninstallers go to this site: http://kb2.adobe.com/cps/141/tn_14157.html
If your looking for a true full install, you can download this developer version for Windows and Mac: http://download.macromedia.com/pub/flashplayer/updaters/10/flash_player_update2_flash10.zi p (44MB) (If you download this, I would recommend you still follow my instructions for the Flash Utility before restarting your computer.)

I would recommend all users having problems try the above solution first.
I have posted this on a couple of websites, and so far it has fixed everyones problems.
Firefox 3.5 Beta 4 has Adobe Flash Player coding built into the browser so that it not only loads faster but works better.
You still need to have the Adobe ActiveX plug-in and Adobe Flash Player for both browsers.
I would also recommend you download Shockwave Player 11.
IE8 has tried this as well, but it still has a couple bugs in it.
If you have IE8 or FireFox 3.5 Beta 4, and you are still having problems, then I recommend that you go to www.windowsupdate.com and get all of the latest updates (including SP3), then try this fix again.
Your auto-updater built into windows (If you even have it on) doesn't always pull down every update available for your computer. It only pulls down the manditory ones.
Sometimes you HAVE to go to the website and manually get them yourself. I recommend when you go to the website, you click on custom install and pick every last one of them to install, which includes, hardware and software fixes for your computer.
What a lot of people don't know is that when you have installed and tried all of the recommended fixes that Adobe gives you, and it still doesn't work, is that you are having registry conflicts within your Operating System (OS ex. WinXP, Vista, Linux, ect.), and that it is not the Adobe software at all.
Those are usually repaired by making sure your computer stays up to date.
The fact is the computer world is changing so rapidly that everyone can't keep up. You have to check for updates weekly.
If you fall behind on those updates, then you start having problems with your computer and/or software.
One problem then can turn into many and people get frustrated when something all the sudden just quits working.
Take a day or two at least once a month, and make sure you update and maintain your computer.
This includes disk defragmenting, disk cleanup, and making sure you have all the lastest updates.
You can get to Disk Defrag, and Disk Cleanup by going to Start, All Programs, Accessories, then to System Tools.
I would do Disk Cleanup first, then Defrag.
I hope you take this advise into consideration, and that it is very helpful for you.
If you find this useful, please come back and reply to this forum, and let everyone know so that others will be encouraged to do this.
Thanks and goodluck, from another user like you.

After resetting Firefox, all of my PDF files now have the Firefox icon. I don't like this. Is Mozilla working on a fix for this?

As stated, I used the reset feature in Firefox and immediately afterward the icon on all of my PDF files changed to the Firefox icon. Hopefully Mozilla is working on a fix for this??

This solved my problem. Got my Adobe icons back. Hope the other people having the same problem see this solution - it was pretty painless compared to some of the other solutions I read about.
Thanks Philipp.

ACR 8.5 and Photoshop CC 2014 - after many updates, uninstalls, reinstalls, my copy is still running ACR 8.0. Is Adobe working on a fix - it's a common problem.

Some people are saying to just replace the 8bi file - but I'm sure that this is only half the solution. I am not interested in hand installing software.

Is apple working of a fix for this update error. 8.0.1 needs 610mb of space.

Is apple working of a fix for this update error? 8.0.1 needs 610mb of space. Every time I try to install the latest update, I get this error: "Updating to iOS 8.0.2 requires at least 610 MB of free space on your iPhone. Please change your media sync options to make more storage available." There is way more space than that on my phone, (about 12gB) and no matter what i do, I keep getting this error. And what the heck are media sync options?
Also, my phone will not backup, giving me another error. iTunes could not backup this phone, because it could not back up to this computer, or something to that effect. Even trying to manually backup to iCloud, i get the same message about this computer. Seems like it started with the last update to iTunes.

Is Apple still working on a fix for PC?

Because I'm starting to feel it's all a ploy to get people to buy macs.
It used to work right.
P.S...... for every PC/itunes user posting with problems on this board, there's many more of us lurking & waiting for the solution that works to appear on here.

"Is Apple working on a fix for PC?" is actually my question, too.
I'm one of those who has been lurking around for a while reading fixes and suggestions without previously posting. I had previously installed every update of iTunes since 4.7 without any issue. My iPod (a 40g photo) has the newest updates installed. My situation was the seemingly succesful install of the 5.0.1 update at first, then the connection to iPod/ 'please reinstall' error that reinstalling did not correct, and then it stopped working at all.
I was relieved to find this forum and tried every fix I found here... uninstalled completely (including a reg clean), checked my admin login, made sure my Windows XP was completely updated, disabled my antivirus even though I didn't have the file that's supposed to be the problem, disabled firewall, downloaded QT standalone and installed, downloaded iTunes and installed, plenty of restarts in between (always disabling antivirus), etc. Hours gone, same problem. I was eventually able to reinstall 4.9 successfully and re-import my library using a renaming fix found on this site, and that's been working fine for a week or so.
The only issue is that I did have to give my copmuter a second permission to play my iTunes-purchased songs, so I do feel a bit like I was cheated out of my five computer allowance. Are there any possible fixes for this?
Now I've been surfing back through these topics to see if there is any word that Apple is working on the problem or assurance that future updates won't have these issues. I really can't spend another two or three days trying to install an iTunes update that won't work. How will I know if the problem is fixed and a new version is safe to try again? Does anyone know anything about this?
Thanks.

Is Apple working on a fix for editing photos for wallpaper, call contacts with photo, etc? The iPhone used to be so intuitive for everything but that tanked with the ios7 upgrade

iPhone 5 was so intuitive before the update. Editing photos has changed for the worst-any word of a fix for editing photos for wallpaper? Not a work around, a fix. If I wanted this kind of photo editing I'd still be using my droid x.
Anyway to go back to ios6?

Is Apple working on a fix for ios6 that will stop it from using huge data in the iphone 4s?

When I upgraded my iPhone 4s to ios6, it started using huge amounts of data. My provider refuses to reimburse me. Today they told me that Apple has acknowledged the problem and has fixed it in ois6.3. However, ois6.3 is unavailable for the 4s, and my provider tells me that Apple has not acknowledged that the problem exists in the 4s. They referred me to Apple. However, because the phone is off warranty, I will have to pay $35 + tax to talk to an Apple rep--and surely Apple knows the problem extends to the 4s, because it is widely discussed on-line. I have not seen any reference to whether Apple is working on a fix for the 4s. Does anyone know? I can't afford this much longer and am going to have pay a lot of money to switch phones. And when I switch phones, it won't be an Apple, which will also make me sad--but it is ridiculous for them to produce a problem that is costing so much money and then not to acknowledge it exists. I am hoping that having addressed it in the 5, they will now turn to the 4s. Does anyone know?

Yeah, the 6.0.2 update was rolled out to deal with that issue amongs others. But getting it out for the older models was either not high priority or more complex than they anticipated. So the wait continues till it shows up on the update channel.
Pestering Apple Support might not get it done quicker, but at least will offer some sort of vicarious revenge and relief.

Is Apple working on bug fixes for IOS 8.0.2? Wish I had NOT updated! Terrible on IPad2!

IS Apple working on bug fixes for IOS 8.0.2? It is terrible on IPad2, wish I had NOT updated!

Since "upgrading" to iOS8.x my IPad2 is so slow and buggy. If the old hardware can't handle the new iOS, Apple should say so.

Is Apple Working working on a fix for Bluetooth glitch in iOS6?

I held off from the iOS upgrade so as to not loose google maps, and so now i can see that there is no quick fix for the obvious flaky Bluetooth!
Dose anyone know are they working on a soft fix?

Hi Barry,
Sorry if i wasn't clear. In relation to intermittent Bluetooth discusion:
https://discussions.apple.com/message/19819527#19819527
I am getting the same Bluetooth audio cutouts every 20 seconds or so. It just seems like there is no stability in the signal anymore. My audio Bluetooth headphones had been working brilliantly on iOS5 and have been using them daily for 3 years. I have tried all of the resets with no change and figured it was a code change. Have been a Mac use exclusivley since 98, but i'm no system expert, and was wondering if anyone new of a fix in the works? Cheers.

Potential work around/temporary fix for "backup did not complete"

Hey guys,
I was able to backup my phone when I first got it and then I tried backing it up one day and it stopped working... after reading online about some apps causing problems, I decided to try and delete some of the latest ones I installed. Doing one at a time I eventually was able to backup, when I thought I found the "bad app" I re-installed one of the first apps I deleted, wouldn't backup again... turns out it wasn't any particular app (in my case).
Anyway! all this to say, that I think I found the issue some people are having. If you're application data is more than 675MB (give or take), Blackberry Link won't backup (for me)... I would backup my phone with whichever app at 672MB's, it would backup no problem, as soon as I would install another one, it would boost it up to 677MB's or above and it would be a no go... no particular app... I'm just guess 675MB, seems like it would make sense as a number.
Anyway, I'm curious if this is the case for other people. What is everyone's application data size at, who are having this issue? If any of you can, try going below 672-675MB and see if it works. Incase you don't know how, to view how many MB's you have, go to Settings within BB Link with your phone selected, and then check "Select data to include in your backup files"... give it a minute or so to load.
Hopefully this can be a fix for some people out there, until BB releases a patch.
Mike

Turns out this may be caused by Android Apps sideloaded. Try backing up just your settings. When you in BB Link click the Phone Tab than Click the Settings Gear and you can change what items the phone backs up. Try just the settings at first.
If that works and you have Android apps loaded you may need to remove the Android Apps.
BlackBerry needs to add better error messages or at the very least have error codes. Not having error codes really makes troubleshooting a pain.

Is Adobe working on a Fix?

By far the worst Adobe software release ever. Fireworks is
not even Alpha quality software. The text engine is a mess having
to resort to crappy workarounds or scripts to fix it. The
Application is unstable and it can and will corrupt files on while
saving them. Please Adobe Fireworks team, fix this soon because it
is an incredibly powerful application that is worth using. :-(
For those of us that need this software, you guys should make
the CS3 version available as a download as an interim fix to the
CS4 blunder.

@rootadmin21
Can you try the following instruction mentioned below and see if this helps to solve the problem?
1. Quit all applications running on your system.
2. Navigate to the following 3 mentioned locations and rename the below specified file, i.e "AdobeFnt11.lst"
     On Win XP:
     a. [drive or C:]\Documents and Settings\user name\Local Settings\Application Data\Adobe\TypeSupport\AdobeFnt11.lst
     b. [drive or C:]\Documents and Settings\user name\Local Settings\Application Data\Adobe\TypeSupport\CMaps\AdobeFnt11.lst
     c. [drive or C:]\Program Files\Common Files\Adobe\TypeSupport\CMaps\AdobeFnt11.lst
     On Win Vista:
     a. [drive or C:]\Users\[user name]\Local\App Data\Adobe\TypeSupport\AdobeFnt11.lst
     b. [drive or C:]\Users\[user name]\Local\App Data\Adobe\TypeSupport\CMaps\AdobeFnt11.lst
     c. [drive or C:]\Program Files\Common Files\Adobe\TypeSupport\CMaps\AdobeFnt11.lst
3. Also, navigate to [drive or C:]\WINDOWS\system32\"FNTCache.dat" and rename "FNTCache.dat" on your system.
4. Now restart the system once and then launch Fireworks to see if it is working fine for you.
Thanks,
Arun Kaza

TS3642 Is Apple working on a fix for this so Windows users can import a .band file?

Exporting from the iPad Garageband into iTunes is a cinch. The resulting .band file can be sent via email or by other means to another computer. If that computer is a Mac, it is possible to reverse the process and import the .band file into iTunes for use on another iPad. But Apple has not implemented the same code for the Windows version of iTunes, so if your collaborator has an iPad and Garageband, but no Mac, there is no way to get the .band file back onto another iPad. Apple says as much in TS3642. Does anyone know if Apple is working to fix this problem? Or can anyone think of a workaround?

I've been prompted to look at this again and have found a decent workaround...
Annoyingly the Windows version of iTunes doesn't handle .band projects properly. You can use .iTunes to transfer a project from one device into the file sharing area for the app and save it to your computer, but you can't drag a .band folder into that area to upload to another device. In contrast a round trip is possible for iMovieMobile as those project folders are rolled up into a .zip file.
I've just tested iFunBox which allows you to copy files to and from the iOS device's file system. Share the GarageBand project to iTunes on the device in the normal way, connect it to a computer running iFunBox, click the iFunBox Classic button, expand the tree to show App File Sharing > GarageBand and drag the project folder to your computer. Connect the other device, show the App File Sharing > GarageBand view, drag the project folder in, then in GarageBand on the device use the plus symbol in the My Songs view to copy the project from iTunes.
My only slight reservation is that AVG flagged up one of the components of iFunBox as a security risk, although having let AVG take remedial action the iFunBox program carried on working and there is no sign that AVG actually quarantined any files. I suspect a false positive, the program has been around for some time and has plenty of good recommendations. I'm sure if it were known to be malicious I'd have found the evidence.

Is Apple working on a fix for the Boot Camp on 3TB Fusion Drive issue?

Me and so many others wish to know if Apple is planning to fix this in the future. We just need to know in order to decide if waiting for the fix is an option.
Kind regards,
Gornet

We are not Apple. We are users like you. We have no insight into what Apple is working on.
