Licensing stopped working: Does anyone know if Adobe cares about it's customers?

For the 3rd time in as many months I'm having to uninstall, clean and reinstall CS 3 Web Premium suite.
Error message on all applications:
"You cannot use this product at this time. You must repair the problem by uninstalling and then reinstalling this product or contacting you IT administrator or Adobe customer support for help."
This is ridiculous... it seems like hundreds of customers are suffering the same problem from looking at forums and blogs.
Surely a company with such a reputation can provide a fix for this problem. I'm not rich, infact I am currently unemployed, but I invested a great deal of money in what I 'had' regarded as the best software.
However, having to go through this lengthy process of uninstalling, cleaning and reinstalling every few weeks is becoming a real pain in the butt. It takes hours...
I am getting no where in trying to get answers.
Can anyone tell me who I can complain to in order to get some action on this?
Can anyone advise if there is a perminant fix or what Adobe is doing about it!?
One VERY annoyed Adobe user.

This happened to me a few months ago. Go here:

Solution 4 is the one that finally worked for me. I did not have to reinstall the software!
Hope this helps.

    my ipod 5 froze and wont work or anything and my home button doesnt work so i cant soft reset or anything does anyone know what to do about this?

    Try:                                               
    - iOS: Not responding or does not turn on           
    Ignore the reset and when it says plae the iPod in Recovery mode
    Place the iPod in recovery mode using one of these programs:
    For PC
    RecBoot: Easy Way to Put iPhone into Recovery Mode
    or
    http://joshuabailey1997.wordpress.com/2010/09/02/recboot-v1-3/
    If necessary:
    Download QTMLClient.dll & iTunesMobileDevice.dll for RecBoot
    and                                           
    RecBoot tip
    RecBoot may have problems on 64X windows, then try:       
    Tenorshare ReiBoot – Enter & Exit iPhone, iPad, iPod Recovery Mode with a Single Click
    For MAC or PC       
    The Firmware Umbrella - TinyUmbrella
    Installs blootware on PC too
    - If not successful and you can't fully turn the iOS device fully off, let the battery fully drain. After charging for an least an hour try the above again.
    - Try another cable       
    - Try on another computer                            
    - If still not successful that usually indicates a hardware problem and an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store is in order.

  • Clone stamp disappeared from Ps CC.  Does anyone know what to do about this?

    Hi Everyone, I have PS CC on an iMac and when I started with CC, the clone stamp and pattern stamp shared a spot and they both worked. However, now the clone stamp has disappeared and I only have the pattern stamp. The other day it showed back up but now it is gone again. Does anyone know what to do about this?

    Don't just click on the Tool location, CLICK AND HOLD.

  • Does anyone know what to do about iCal colors changing.

    Does anyone know what to do about iCal colors changing.   Ever since ios7 came out I have many problems.  I kind of feel like Apple has become Microsoft at twice the price??  Anyway, today all my calendars (iPhone, iPad, iCloud and on my Mac) all changed colors from the customer colors I had set.  I have about 5 calendars.
    I was able to change them back on my Mac, my iphone and my ipad, but not in iCloud.   Once each of the ones I changed updates / syncs it reverts to the incorrect colors again.  I have tested back and forth, and it is definetly coming out of the iCloud.com.  The web site will not let me chance colors, so once it updates / sync, all my other devices and calendars sync to the purple in iCloud.
    I could go on and on about my frustrations with the apparent lack to testing, and the irony around Microsoft and their "bugs".  It is more important that I find a cure, as this is really annoying.
    Has anyone else seen this today

    Don't spend a lot of time trying to change it. It's an iCloud problem that's happened before, and when it happened in August it went back to the correct colors in a few days. Just be careful when you add new items to the calendar to use the right calendar (even if the color is wrong), otherwise you'll have things out of synch when the correct colors come back.

    Does anyone know if Apple cares (unless you pay for Apple Care) if a clickwheel iPod with dock connected by firewire doesn't show up in iTunes, although it does show up on the Firewire bus in the System Profiler?

    If you've been able to solve this problem, I'd appreciate hearing your solution. I haven't been able to find one in the forums, which doesn't mean it's not there, just that I haven't found it yet.

    1.)Have you tried resetting the iPod with it connected to the computer?

    2.)Does anything happen when you connect the iPod to your computer besides show up in system profiler?
    3.)Have you ever had the iPod successfully connect with your Mac?
    4.)Have you tried restarting your computer if you've been successful before?
    5.)Do you have the most recent version of iTunes (Download iTunes)?
    6.)Have you tried restoring the iPod (Restoring the iPod)?
    7.)Have you seen this?

    You'll need to contact Orange again and try to get someone who knows what they're talking about.

  • My apps say they are "waiting" and they have been for days updating.  They must be stuck.  Not all of them but about 10 that ia am waiting on.  Does anyone know what do do about this?

    Just to add a couple of more things that you can try ... Along with what TMM suggested ....
    Make sure that you do not have a stalled download in iTunes - a song or podcast .... if you have a download in there that did not finish, complete that one first. Only one thing can download at a time on the iPad so that could be what is causing the problem.
    You can also try updating from the app description page rather than the Updates Tab. Do a search for the apps that needs to be updated - when it appears in the search - tap on the app icon. Then tap on Update or Install - whatever happens to appear next to the app icon - in the description page that pops up.
    You can also try deleting the waiting icons - tap and hold down on an icon until it wiggles - the tap the X on the icon to delete it. Then try to download again.

  • I just bought a apple tv, i was watching a move and i had to re start the move several times because it would stop in the middle of the movie? does anyone know what to do about it?

    I juar bought an apple tv. I was watching a movie and it stopped several times. I had to re-start it again and again. Does anyone knows why and how can I correct it?

    Welcome to the Apple Community.
    The first thing to check would be your internet download speed, you can do this atwww.speedtest.net.
    1080p HD movies require a recommended speed of 8 Mbps, 720p HD movies require a recommended speed of 6 Mbps, while SD movies require a recommended speed of 2.5 Mbps.

  • CP8 Glosary audio controls don't work - does anyone know why or what the fix might be?

    Can anyone help? thanks
    Another question: does anyone know how audio linked to the glossary terms can be easily repeated? Currently, it's not possible to click on the term a second time to repeat the audio - I have to click another term, then return to the one I want to repeat (audio)
    Message was edited by: Susan Martin

    Unfortunately Susan this appears to be a limitation of the standard Glossary widget. I have a client that wanted the exact same feature, click the term and hear the word again. I had considered using other Glossary widgets that are available but all of them seem to have one short coming or another. One option I considered was creating a small flash app/button (play audio) that contained the audio file and could be placed in the description like an image but this became to cumbersome for the number of terms we had to use and opened up all other issues and I can't even remember if importing a flash element is a feature of the standard Glossary or and third party.
    I hope that someone else has some other insights for you.
