Is the Blue Lightning Bolt here to stay....?

I mean, honestly.  Is the Blue Lightning Bolt just Adobe's way of punishing those who aren't on the DPS Pro or Enterprise plan?  Can the thing get any bigger?    Does it get smaller if you buy the acrobat.com subscription plan?  lol.  It's like the digital version of The Scarlet Letter.    Why not just have the entire thumbnail be some text that says "Cheapskate".  Here's hoping that it gets removed.  I'd love to hear any explanation at all as to what the purpose is of the Blue Lightning Bolt Banner - other than to identify that the stuff I make isn't on the elite Pro/Enterprise plan.  Why have anything at all?

I'm pleased to hear that Pro and Enterprise users are happy with the arrangement and that the Blue Lightning Bolt is so helpful.
It's just rather stunning that someone with the intelligence to create a document using InDesign and DPS gets confused over the addition of a little asterisk in the folio title to denote IN PROGRESS or UNPUBLISHED.
Even a little lightning bold or red A or whatever - BELOW the folio title - would have sufficed.
Seriously.  Totally lame.  Non-Pro/Enterprise account holders getting the shaft.  That's all this is, really.
I can't wait to see what else is implemented by Pro/Enterprise account holders at the expense of the rest of us...
Maybe a GIANT BLUE LIGHTNING BOLT ON EVERY PAGE IN THE FOLIO!!!!!

  • Changing The Blue Lightning Bolt

    For those of us who are creating content exclusively for distribution to clients and in-house staff via acrobat.com and the Content Viewer app, the Blue Lightning Bolt is a visual annoyance.
    How's about an option to either NOT have it displayed, or at least have a blue stroke around the thumbnail so that our original graphic isn't disturbed?

  • Blue Lightning Bolt: what's the rgb value?

    I'd like to try to create a graphic that would allow me to hide that hideous thing. Does anybody know what's the colour?
    (now that i think about it i might take a picture of it, and colour picking it..)
    well, please guys let me know if you know it, i hope my ideas of creating a background of the same colour, or with stripes.. will help you out.
    thanks for your help in advance,
    Antonio

    Generally speaking you want to make the whitest thing in an image *just* pure white in an image, but that could change depending on the image.  You could imagine an evening image (e.g., around sunset) where the brightest things would be orange and should stay at least a little orange.

  • Not Syncing / No Lightning Bolt

    When I connect my iPhone to my macbook iTunes doesn't launch and the iphone doesn't show the charging lightning bolt, although the phone does still charge. I've tried in DFU mode and with another (good) sync cable but nothing seems to work. All other iPhone functions are working normally.

  • Red light stays on..then battery with lightning bolt show

    I have the 8330 curve and as i was getting out of my car tonight and my phone dropped. It shut off and hasnt turned on since...i plugged it into my charger and the red led light stays on and then goes off and a battery with a lightning bolt shows on the screne. Is there any thing to do to fix this?

    Hi and Welcome to the Community!
    Please try this sequence...note that, throughout the entire 4h15m process, your BB must remain connected to a known-good wall charger (not PC USB):
    With the battery inside, connect your BB to the wall charger
    Leave it alone for 2 hours, no matter what the LED or the display does
    Remove the battery
    Wait 15 minutes
    Insert the battery
    Wait another 2 hours, no matter what the LED or the display does
    This has been known to "kick start" some BBs.
    It is also possible that your battery or BB has experienced a problem...to test, this sequence is needed:
    Obtain a known good and already fully charged additional battery...use it in your BB and see what happens
    Obtain access to a known good and identical BB...use your battery in it and see what happens
    The results of this will indicate if it's your BB or your battery that has the problem. Please note that "known good" and "new" are not necessarily the same thing...while rare, a new battery can be defective.
    Good luck and let us know!

    See Here for
    Frozen or unresponsive iPod touch
    The Basic Troubleshooting Steps are:
    Restart..  Reset..  Restore...
    Try this First... You will Not Lose Any Data...
    Turn the iPod Off... ( if it isn’t already )
    Press and Hold the Sleep/Wake Button and the Home Button at the Same Time...
    Wait for the Apple logo to Appear and then Disappear...
    Usually takes about 15 - 20 Seconds... (But can take Longer...)
    Release the Buttons...
    Turn the iPod On...
    If that does not help... See Here:

    I have an IPod 2nd generation I bought from a pawn shop.  It worked for a day but now when I try to charge it, it keeps switching back and forth from the large full screen icon of a low battery and a lighting bolt below to the blue screen with the apple symbol in the middle.  I had it on charge all night but still dead.

  • Can't Start Up: staying in the blue screen for 8 hours...

    HELP!!!!
    My powerbook G4 can't start up
    All goes well during StartUp untill it gets to a Blue Screen
    then it stays there
    its been 8 hours so far...
    ( i can see the mouse pointer )
    This is my 3rd try -- but every time it just stuck in the blue screen stage
    Please help.

    First, I'd review the troubleshooting procedures on this page:
    http://www.apple.com/support/powerbook/
    Other things to try: remove the main battery and let the PB sit with the A/C adaptor connected for several hours. This will make sure the backup battery has some charge assuming it's not completely dead.
    Then try starting the computer with the SHIFT key depressed ("Safe mode"). This does some directory repair. If you get a desktop via a safe boot, do not try to use the computer just yet. Do a normal restart, then see if it is usable.
    If you have your system disks or the disks you used to install Tiger, dee if the computer will boot from them by holding the "C" key during boot.
    How full is you hard drive? You need a minimum of 15 percent free space for the OS to work with any efficiency.
    Because there are several variants of the 17" G4 PowerBook, it would be helpful to people here if you would add the processor speed to your equipment line. Showing how much RAM you have is also useful. That way you can get help faster because people don't have to ask first.

  • Any solution to a white screen with a battery icon with a lightning bolt through it on the Tour?

    My daughters blackberry tour suddenly stopped taking a charge and would not power on. It just shows a white screen, with a battery shaped icon & lightning bolt through it.  Went to our local cell store and they did a battery swap for us. The phone worked for about 2 hours then did the same thing. After a couple more swaps with no change, they un installed and re-installed the software. This again fixed it temporarily. When it quit again, we were sent a replacement phone. The replacement did the same thing. We were sent a 2nd replacement, but in the meantime, the first replacement started working. It worked for about a week then did the same thing. Now we have attempted to activate the 2nd replacement and it gets the same screen and will not charge enough to even activate it. I'm working with the customer support (phone is under warranty still), but so far no solution. Anyone else experience this? I find it strange that we now have a 3rd phone, doing the same thing and we have tried new batteries and an new charger.

    Here are some good charging tips, please read and you'll see that many of them will apply to you.

    Leave the device to charge 2-3 hours, and then, still connected to the USB cable, remove the the battery from the device a few seconds and reinsert it. If it boots--leave it to charge to 100% (check Options > Status for the percentage).
    If it doesn't boot--try using a wall outlet charger if you are not. If you are connected via USB to the PC, make certain that you have Desktop Manager (or the USB device drivers) installed, which you can download below.
    Make certain your USB cable is connected to one of the PC's main rear USB ports. Not a USB hub, nor a monitor USB port, nor a USB port on the front of the PC.

  • Yesterday, when I brought my laptop back from sleep, I tried to check my e-mail with the Mail app like I always do. But there was the lightning bolt sign next to the inbox, and the pop-up asked me to input my password, which didn't work. It says mail.mac.

    Yesterday, when I brought my laptop back from sleep, I tried to check my e-mail with the Mail app like I always do. But there was the lightning bolt sign next to the inbox, and the pop-up asked me to input my password, which didn't work. It says mail.mac.com has rejected my password. The password is correct (I'm able to check my e-mail through my browser at me.com), but for some reason Mail keeps on rejecting it. I usually don't have to input my password at all in Mail. Any clue how to fix this? I haven't changed anything at all on my laptop.

    I did change my apple ID password though...

    IPOD 5 Touch is not taking a charge.  It shows a picture of a lightning bolt and above that a picture of a battery at the end of the battery is a slim red line.  This was purchased in August 2013.  Could it be battery or ac charger adapter or usb cable?

    Those all sound like reasonable causes.  I do not know the answer.  There is probably an Apple Support forum for the ipod that could help.  Also try the ipod Help in itunes.
