Less expensive alternate ways to get Adobe Story?
I love Story, but looking at what CS Live is going to cost come April, I'm really thinking I should look elsewhere for my screen writing needs. Possibly go back to Celtx for awhile till I find something I can buy and keep using. I don't use, and don't anticipate using other CS Live programs, so for me $200-$300 a year is really steep (not to mention I could barely afford it anyway with the cost of College these days.)
So that leaves me with three questions. Firstly, will Adobe have an option to only pay for the pieces of Live we want to use, like just paying (even if it is a yearly fee) for Adobe Story for less money? Or will there be a way to just buy Adobe Story without getting all the CS Live bells and whistles with it? Or will there be a student discount like with Adobe's other programs? I really just use the desktop App and don't really use the "live" features of it so at least for awhile the price just isn't worth it to me, nice as the integration and feel is.
I'm sure that the Live service is targeted at businesses who can afford the price, but I'm sure I'm not the only individual who knows that when April comes, there's either going to have to be an alternate, cheaper way to handle it, or we're going to have to jump ship.
Just wanted to throw that out there since I can't find much discussion on it.
IT is duplication Celtx with a Flash interface that is ridgid and not user friendly. It is very Adobe (pdf'y), and not enough story writing functions. Writing is the first component of creative commnications —even Celtx has a Novel category. At the root, words tell the story, not a production manager or producer or budget breakdown. Without a solid, well-written story, that is proofed, at final draft status, all other film making functions have a greater chance of failing.
Place a a program like WORD or OPenOffice word prcessor on top of it and it might work. For as much as I detest MS, MS WORD is the dominent word processor app. for 99% of creative writers.
By the way Celtx is at a holiday mark down price of $9.95.

Is there any other way to get Adobe Captivate help?
Hi guys,
is there any other way to get Adobe Captivate specific help? I've posted a question twice with no help, it's very specific, so no one here might actually know the solution. I'm wondering though, since the chat is obviously not for Captivate users with product or service questions.
Is there a tech team I can somehow contact? We really need an answer to the problem.
Thanks,
Nat
P.S. I'll post the problem again here:
We publish mp4 training videos as HTML5 content and have the problem that we need to restrict the player to only play/pause.
Adobe Captivate 7 works fantastic for us on almost all devices, many Androids, many browsers, and even on iPad. Captivate, after adding the video as a multi-slide video to one slide and publishing it as HTML5 content, only lets the student play and pause the video - just what we need.
But then we test it on iPhone and the iPhone's internal quicktime player recognizes the mp4 video and kicks in, gives the student all the functions they want, totally overrides the HTML5 published Captivate restricted playback options.
Is there ANY way we can get around that? Any function or box we haven't checked before publishing the HTML5 content?
We would even be happy, if the video wouldn't play on iPhone - just as long as they can't use it to fast forward to the end of the video.
Does anyone here know how to bypass the internal iPhone 5 player?
Thanks,
NatBy the way, I have updated to the newest Captivate 7 version and am using iOS version 7.0.4.
Again, it's fine on iPad, but not on iPhone 5. -
Is there a way to get Adobe flash player on kindle fire HD
I would like to know if there is a way to get Adobe flash player on the kindle fire HD any help would be great
Kindle is Android. There is no more Flash Player for Android and there won't be another. Android is no longer compatible with Flash Player. Playing Flash content is very processor consumptive and it drains your battery, also shortening the life of it. Android (Google) recommends using either "Dolphin" or "Puffin" as your browser if you need to view Flash content with a mobile device running Android. They're both free in the GooglePlay store. These browsers use "server side" rendering to reduce the load on your device.

Hello,
I am trying to find out what I can do, to get adobe to open up a pdf file so that I can read all pages, without having to download the document first. I get the first page only; then I download and have access to all pages. Then I delete. Seems like such a long process. Is there another way? Do I need to download a different adobe?
Thanks for your help.How are you seeing your document on iCloud from your laptop? Web browser, or OS X Pages open dialog?
If you have MS Word or .pages formatted files parked on iCloud, the web interface will not permit their download as PDF, and in fact, PDF is an inactive option in that download menu for these word processing files. There is no copy facility available, but duplicate functionality exists from the iWork category within the iCloud web presence.
If you have Pages v4.2 or later installed on your (assumption: Mac) laptop, launch Pages and in the open file dialog, select iCloud on the dialog toolbar. Now, press and hold the option key as you drag and drop a copy of our document from iCloud to your desktop. The reverse works also.
See if you can open that document on your laptop now. -
Is there a way to get Adobe Camera Raw to appear in "Open With" drop down?
HI,
I was wondering if there might be a way to get a direct link to Adobe Camera Raw to appear in "Open With" drop down menu along with the other choices?I would think you'd just need to select the Adobe Application you're using... whichever that one is, then the APP would know what to do with RAW.
What are they set for now? -

zenithi georgeHi George,
You can contact SAP and tell them that you cleared your exam and give them the details.. Like your Name, Date of Certification Exam, Location and Company Sponsering you. And give them the address for delivery of new certificate.
You can also contact Mr. M V Ramakrishnan from SAP. He can guide you and help you in much better way. His email ID is <b>[email protected]</b> ..Just discuss it with him. He will let you know the right person to contact and you can get your certificate at your home address.

Affordable Way To Get Adobe Content on iPad?
Greets,
Bob and Bend have been giving me great insights into .folio files and DPS. Seems sideloading and other ways of using Acrobat.com to host/share .folio files are problematic and may be discontinued to encourage people to use DPS through an Adobe partner.
So I emailed an Adobe partner to get an idea of pricing. OUCH! Nearly $6,000 a year for Professional Edition (the lesser of the types). That might be chump change to major online e-publishers, but it is a deal breaker to our company.
We manufacture RVs and want to put together documents and presentations to run on iPad for our sales team. We use InDesign quite a bit for our marketing collateral so we were excited to see we could translate that technology to help us put content on iPad. It would be very attractive to do this in-house with a little bit of learning and not farming things out for mobile development. Sounds like DPS pricing makes .folio not a viable route for us, which is disappointing.
Only thing I can think of is exploring mutlimedia features in Acrobat PDFs and/or developing Web pages with HTML5 / JQuery and see what runs on iPad since Flash content will not. It's a shame because InDesign layouts are so nice and could have been used on iPad if more affordable.
Anyone else developing items for microdistribution and getting content on iPad, iPhone, iPod touch? If so what are your best practices?
-RV DzineI have seen a few great examples of people using HTML5 creatively.
http://www.niemanlab.org/2011/06/the-financial-times-shuns-the-app-store-but-not-the-ipad/ Here's one example where the financial times took their app content and made it into a web experience. Once bookmarked -- the experience is identical to app but promises to be a faster and more reliable user experience. -
Why do cloud subscribers get Adobe Story Plus while CS6 owners only get the free version?
After putting it off since its release, I finally decided to try Story. I'm very happy with my existing screenwriting software but hey, there are these great integration benefits with the post production software I spend my life in so why not?
Well, I just found out those of us who purchased CS6 get the free version of Story while cloud subscribers get Plus. Why? This feels like I'm being penalized for having opted to upgrade from CS5.5 rather than switching over to the cloud. I realize there's a $10 a month option to get Plus but dropping an extra $120 a year when I'm already happy with Movie Magic Screenwriter doesn't make financial sense to me. The only reason I was going to try using Story was for the scheduling tools and the workflow integration but that integration should be part of the Production Premium Suite, not $120 extra per year.
I upgraded to CS6 the day it was released so obviously I can't go back and switch to the cloud and I'm not spending $120 a year so I guess I wont use Story.
Very disappointing Adobe.Hi,

I have a customer that is using Adobe Acrobat pro version 10.1. When they try and open a .pdf file from a SharePoint site, the user is prompted to check out and open the file or open the file. Is there a way to get Adobe Acrobat to open the .pdf file without prompting to check out or open?
Thanks
JimThis is mostly a lion thing, rather than a PSE thing. To disable applications opening where they left off last time for all the programs on your computer, go to system preferences>general and untick this box:
You can also do on a per-program basis, but it's more complicated and the best thing to do is to search around for directions on the web and see which way is least uncomfortable for you.
There's an odd little glitch in PSE that it opens the last image you had open, even if you closed it before quitting last time. Adobe says this is correct behavior, but of course it isn't. -
Unable to install Adobe Story desktop app on OS X
Hey everyone. I'm a recent owner of the Retina MacBook Pro and subscriber to Adobe Creative Cloud.
I'm having trouble installing the Adobe Story desktop app on OS X 10.8.2. When I go to the Story Plus web app and try to install the desktop app, the Air installer says something along the lines of "...the installer is damaged. Request a new installer from the developer."
Now on my previous MBP, this had never happened, and the app installed the first try. I've tried a multiple times to get this to work, but no avail. I'd really appreciate it if someone could help me get Adobe Story running as a desktop app.
Also, one more thing: attempting to log in to the Adobe support forums sends me into a redirect loop on my notebook. I ended up having to log into here on my iPad. Not sure if that's a bug or something on my side; thought it I should point it out.
Anyways, cheers and thanks to anyone who can help.I see this link on the Adobe Story forum here http://forums.adobe.com/thread/1078357. Please post here in the Adobe Story forum and they will help resolve your issue.

Is there a way to get ACR to appear in the "Open With" drop down menu?
Hi,
Is there a way to get Adobe Camera Raw to appear directly along with CS3 in the Mac's ( OS 10.4.11) "Open With" drop down menu?If you installed ACR it in the right place, and are targeting the kind of file that ACR can handle, it should be there.
I have found that there are certain Tiff Scans that won't open in ACR but if you just Duplicate them in Bridge, and then target the Duplicate, they will then open in ACR.
At least they do so for me. -

How to install Adobe Story CS6?
Hi Everyone,
I upgraded to Creative Suite 6 Production Premium, but cannot find any way to have Adobe Story's desktop app let me log in. I uninstalled it, but now I don't know how to re-install it and let me log in.
I've re-installed Premier Pro CS6, which did not re-install it either. I tried chat support, but they told me to file a ticket online-which I can't do since I don't have a support agreement as I'm a regular-joe user.
I'm weary of phone support being able to answer this question too. This is not a good execution for a product I was really looking forward to using...
Help?
Thanks!Not according to the documentation. See http://www.adobe.com/il_en/products/story-plus/faq.html and look under "What versions of Adobe Story are available and how do they differ?"
• Adobe Story CS6 is a preproduction planning tool that offers professional writing tools, as well as production scheduling for more organized storytelling. Adobe Story CS6 integrates with Adobe Premiere Pro CS6 software to streamline your post-production workflow. Adobe Story CS6 is an Adobe AIR® application that doesn’t require an Internet connection and is included with Adobe Premiere Pro CS6, Adobe After Effects® CS6, Adobe Creative Suite® 6 Production Premium, and CS6 Master Collection software.
UPDATE: It's only available in Israel or it is a product that was never released? -
Is there any way to install adobe flash player for my ipad?
Is there any way to get adobe flash player on my ipad?
No, flash is not supported on the iPad - and as Adobe have announced that they are stopping development on all mobile versions of it, it probably never will be.
Browser apps such as Skyfire, iSwifter, Puffin and Photon 'work' on some sites, but judging by their reviews not all sites. Also some websites have their own apps in the App Store. -
