Never ending problems with update.

It can't be done, always ending with an error message. Uninstall and install back doesn't help. Why don't you fix the the update engine, Adobe? I'm on Windows 7 machine and the only problem with update I have is with Flash Player and Acrobat Reader. It's so frustrating.

Hi acq742801,
I understand your frustration.
But I would be able to sort it out once you'll let me know what exact error do you get while updating.
Also, in addition to Flash Player, are you getting update error for Adobe Acrobat or Reader or both?
If possible, please share the screenshot so that I can check at my end.
Hope to get your response.
Regards,
Anubha

  • Systematic and Never Ending Problems With Elements 7

    Alright I'll start from the top:
    I bought this software via the website a year ago.  Since the very beginning I've had issues that have NEVER been resolved despite numerous sessions with the support personnel.
    I download the software (after paying the over $100 for it) and discovered that I was given an incomplete version.  Naturally I was heated.  I've tried on at least 3 different occasions to have this rectified by the Adobe personnel who have tried, but always failed to solve the issue.  That's the biggest problem.  On to the others.
    Now, when I go to make a movie, the sound i've recorded from the clip (i use Fraps version 3.2.2, yes the PAID for version) never is allowed to transition over.  The clip is without audio when I add it into the software.  The only work around I have for this, is that I export the clip via Windows Movie Maker and then add it into Adobe Premeire.  Naturally this DESTROYS the video quality.
    Third problem, the final quality of the videos I create is very poor. We're talking just NASTY.  I can view the clips just fine and their quality is top notch before I export them out of the program.  The moment they hit my desktop, well, they look like shark chum bait fed through a paper shredder.
    Here's an excellent example:
    http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kHJsf1ucajQ
    Now, I know the quality on that video is trash because I had to export it through Windows Movie Maker to keep the game sound effects on the clip and then export it via Adobe.  But, even on clips that purely adobe, that i've sacrificed the sound for, they look like trash.
    Honestly, if i'm going to spend money on software I want my moneys worth.
    I've been asked by scores of people (everyone knows I make and edit movies as a hobby) if I would recommend software for them to use; I've stopped recommending adobe.  My entire experience with this software and company has been decidedly lackluster.  I'm posting now after a year because I'm simply fed up.
    I wanted to check and make sure it's not something I'm doing wrong.  Considering that I paid for a complete version that Adobe miraculously never provided to me despite numeroues attempts, I thought that might have something to do with it.
    So, online community, if you have words of wisdom, please share them.  If not, I'd recommend moving to different software.

    Welcome to the forum.
    Unfortunately, you found it rather late in the game. Let's look at a few points:
    I download the software (after paying the over $100 for it) and discovered that I was given an incomplete version.
    Because of the size of the program, and also the Functional Content (the extra Menus, Themes, etc.), the download is a two file process. The names of these files are similar, and many get confused, and think they are the same, only downloading and installing one, but not the other. This ARTICLE will give you the location and name of the two files. It was originally done done for PrE 7, but PrE 8 is tabbed on that page. First, the program needs to be installed, and then the Functional Content. Personally, I think that Adobe could make it more obvious, that one needs two files, and also rename the second archived file, so that it stands out as the one containing that Functional Content.
    Now, when I go to make a movie, the sound i've recorded from the clip (i use Fraps version 3.2.2, yes the PAID for version) never is allowed to transition over.
    FRAPS, and several other video-capture programs present problems, due to the specs. of the files that they create, especially the FPS and the CODEC used. To get some background on CODEC's, this ARTICLE will be helpful. PrE, just like its big-brother, PrPro, is designed around a miniDV tape workflow. There are other base workflows, like HDV and AVCHD, plus 100% DVD-compliant VOB, and a few others. However, when working with non-standard workflows, conversion outside of PrE is usually the best course of action.
    For FRAPS, see this THREAD, this THREAD, this THREAD, this THREAD, this THREAD, this THREAD, and this THREAD. Note: that is but a start. Also, many of the replies in those have links to other threads. Plenty of reading.
    Third problem, the final quality of the videos I create is very poor. We're talking just NASTY.  I can view the clips just fine and their quality is top notch before I export them out of the program.  The moment they hit my desktop, well, they look like shark chum bait fed through a paper shredder.
    Without having the exact workflow, step-by-step, and then the Export/Share settings used, it is impossible to determine where the quality hit has come in, and how to address it.
    Good luck, and sorry for your dissatisfaction,
    Hunt

  • Never ending problems with extreme connection to express

    I have an Apple Extreme that is about 5 years old along with 3 newer (1 - 2 years old) and an Apple TV which I bought last year.  All units are N compatible.  I use one extreme for extending my network, one for wireless printing and one for audio.  I'm constantly dealing with one or more of the express units just dropping the connection.  Right now, the unit I use for audio won't even let me reconnect after resetting it.  I'm sure it is something I'm doing in the settings but cannot figure it out.  I'm also wanting to use each of the units as an extender as my 2 story home is large (115 year old Victorian) which is why I have so many units. I'm at 10.9.5 and scared to go to Yosemite because of the wifi connections issues I've read about.  Any help is appreciated as I'm pretty frustrated.

    Sorry, I have 3 newer airport express units.

  • Problems with updating my ipod

    I own the ipod with click wheel (20 GB) and since i updated itunes and the software on the ipod i have problems with updating
    when in connect my ipod to my windows pc it says i should not connct on both itunes and ipod but after at least 2 mins the ipod just connects, itunes still say its still updating and i can't disconnect the ipod from itunes
    i reinstalled the software on my ipod and now the same thing happens, but absolutely no songs being transfered...before it just stopped at 1800 songs...nothing happened
    i kinda suppose its because of my usb drive, it's too slow, but it worked fine before...
    what should i do??? it's pretty frustrating
    M9282LL   Windows 2000  

    Sorry, my fault...
    i wanted to say, the ipod just disconnects itself from the pc...usually there's the sign on it "Do not disconnect" when its updating, but now it just goes back to the menu, while itunes is still updating, at least it say. In the end there are no songs at all copied on the ipod...
    hope this is understandable...

  • Firefox becomes really slow then eventually unresponsive when loading a page with many hires images. Unsual high memory usage up to 2gigs just for firefox. Was never a problem with v3.6.

    When loading a page with many hires images, Firefox becomes really slow and scrolling becomes jumpy then eventually becomes completely unresponsive. Unusual high memory usage of up to 2gigs just for firefox when loading these pages. This was never a problem with v3.6.

    I encountered the same type of problem. Firefox running terribly slowly and slowing down my entire machine (Core i5 with 256GB SSD). Searching the forums, I found a couple of things about troubleshooting performance issues, one of which was to use '''hardware acceleration''', that is on by default. It was turned on on my PC, '''so I tried deactivating it, and it worked!'''
    So doing the exact opposite as Mozilla support said solved the problem. It is really a pain now to work with Firefox. I'm using it because I have no choice, but I'd recommend IE and Chrome over Firefox... Whatever, the market will decide once Firefox has become to crappy...
