New Forums Format?

I kind of liked the old Forum format better, but I will adapt. My quesion is, is there a way to stay logged in? I have to constantly log in. I don't see s checkbox to stay logged in.

For some reason Apple has chosen to operate the forums this way. If you quit your browser you will have to login again when you revisit the forums. The new forums seem to be the same. Looks like a cookie is not being used to automatically login. Anyway it's on purpose. Apple can make it otherwise of they so choose.

The new forum format seems like a step backward

After using it for a few days, the new layout of this forum seems less user-friendly than the previous version.
1) Most users go to a forum for one of two reasons. They want to find the answer to a question or they want to browse by topic.
The standard layout for every other forum I have used has a home screen that clearly lists topics and has a box to start a new discussion or ask a question.
2) The default "Overview" opening screen for this forum lists recent posts but no topics. You need to click "refine this list" to get to the topics page. It has a box labeled "Ask Your Question" and another choice on a different part of the screen labeled "Start a Discussion". Are questions and discussions different from each other? Are they stored on different pages?
3) Two of the upper tabs are labeled "All Content" and "Discussions". What's the difference? Clicking either one seems to produce the same results.
4) It took me a while to figure out that the numbers in the yellow box at the top could be used to access different FAQs rather than pages of the single FAQ shown. Why not label it clearly? ("click number for other FAQs").
I get the impression that "different" took precedence over "useful" when this forum was redesigned.

I think many of us feel your pain and agree with you. I liked the old format because it was clean, easy to use and I knew where everything was that I wanted to access. I'm getting the hang of the new format but it is coming slowly.
The new format seems so "un-Apple-Like" because it seems to not be very user friendly. My assessment is that is geared to a younger, hipper crowd (that certainly does not include an old guy like me) which is every other company's target customer base. Apple always seemed to "think different" but not so much on this one - IMHO.
We will ultimately get used to the format or we will not come back. I don't see the latter happening! I have personalized my homepage but still find it necessary to have at least 4 open tabs in every session so I can navigate the way I want.
I said in an earlier thread that there are too many bells and whistles for my needs and taste but it is what it is. If they could get the problems ironed out for use in the iOS on the iPad I would be a much happier camper. Until then I will trudge along making mistake after mistake ....

Spell Check in New Forums- How The Heck does it work?

Can somebody please tell me how the spell check works in this new forum format? I click on the abc icon and it does nothing. I do a two finger click on a word that is misspelled and it give me Insert Options. I really like the new format but hate the spell check. Can anyone offer advise? Thanks.

The built-in ASC spell checker is -- to put it kindly -- quirky. First, you must turn it on using the 'abc' tool on the right in the editor toolbar. (When it's on, it highlights.) But it won't stay turned on if you click on the tool before you enter any text -- it will just tell you that no misspellings were found & won't stay on. It also sometimes fails to check the last word if followed by a space. You can tell it to ignore misspellings, but you can't tell it to learn words because the spell-checking dictionary is actually on the servers running the site, not on your Mac or PC.
But from your remarks, you probably aren't even using the built-in checker. Instead, I suspect you are trying to use the far superior system-wide one built into OS X. The problem with that is the ASC editing tools are powered by Javascript supplied by the Jive SBS software running the site. Because that is platform independent it doesn't know anything about OS X's contextual menu (which includes suggestions for misspellings, the Dictionary lookup, & so on).
So to make a long story short, what happens when you try to right click on a word the OS X checker has underlined in red, instead you get the Javascript's response to a right click, which brings up the editor's insert/alignment popup menu instead of the OS X contextual menu.
The solution is to control click on the word -- believe it or not, within the ASC editor window a right click & a control click are not the same thing! You literally have to hold down the control key on the keyboard when you click to bypass the Javascript's right click response.
To make things that much more confusing, this only applies if the pointer is not over empty space in the editor window, which in this case excludes lines that have any text on them, including invisible text like spaces or returns. (To see what I mean, drag the tab at the bottom right of the editor window down so there is a lot of empty space below what you have typed. In this empty area, right & control clicks both bring up the OS X contextual menu, but anywhere in the text you have typed, they behave differently.)
In short, the problem is not that Apple has changed how the buttons or clicks work, it is that the new software that runs the site (not developed by Apple) does.
Hope this helps.

New Forum FAQ

This is a work in progress and will be re-formatted soon into individual Question/Answers in an FAQ subforum.
Can I over write the forums style sheets to change the layout?

Why do some older messages appear with parentheses around user names?
For a three-month period before our new forums were launched, we encouraged users to go through an account migration process to associate their former User to User forum IDs with their Adobe ID. Accounts with the parentheses are from those users who had content in the old Adobe User to User Forums, but who have not yet signed into the new system. The parentheses were added to these account names so they could be imported into the new system without clashing with screen names associated with Adobe IDs.
Once a user logs in with that account in the new system the parentheses will go away.

Go to the Your Stuff link in the User Bar, click on Preferences, and uncheck the to radio buttons for subscribing to threads you create and threads you reply to.
How do I embed an image or a video in a forum message?
When posting a message in the Forums there are two buttons in the Rich Text Editor to include a video or an image file in the message.
For video, click on the clapboard button/icon then select the video site and enter the Video URL or embed code and click Insert.
For an image, click on the camera button/icon then select the appropriate tab (From Your Computer, Uploaded Images, or From the web) and follow the onscreen instructions.
What if I want to link to an image on an external site, such as Pixentral or Flickr, instead of uploading the image to the Forum server?
Flickr's Terms of Service state that if you post an image hosted on Flickr on another site you have to link back to the image page on Flickr. To do that you need to go to your image on Flickr, click on the All Sizes link above the image, select the size image you want, then Copy the HTML code from the first box of code underneath the image. Then, in the Forum's Rich Text Editor, click on the >> button/icon and select Insert Raw HTML. This will open a frame within your message where you paste the HTML code you copied from the Flickr site. Then continue on with composing your forum message and click “Post Message” to post the message to the forum system.
For Pixentral images, you will need to go to http://www.pixentral.com and upload your image following the instructions there. You do NOT have to check the box to make images public. Once your image is uploaded there copy the HTML code from the box below your image. Then, in the Forum's Rich Text Editor, click on the >> button/icon and select Insert Raw HTML. This wil open a frame within your message where you paste the HTML code you copied from the Pixentral site. Please note that there is an extra "/" character in the Pixentral URL that will prevent the image from showing up, so you need to make one change to the HTML that you copied from the Pixentral site. The beginning of the HTML code will look something like this:
<a href="http:www.pixentral.com/show.php?picture=16xx5748rt9fhd"/>
Please remove the forward slash that appears between the quotes and the greater than symbol so that this part of the HTML code looks like this:
<a href="http:www.pixentral.com/show.php?picture=16xx5748rt9fhd">
Then continue on with composing your forum message and click “Post Message” to post the message to the forum system.

Yes, you can get an RSS feed from various parts of the forums: Announcements, Discussions, and you can even subscribe to an individual user by going to their profile (click on their name or avatar any place in the forums) and getting the feed link from there. You can also get a feed of your private message inbox.
Some messages have odd linebreaks and random characters in them, such as lines that start with B or I that don't seem to make sense.
The Adobe Online Forums is a new system that has data imported from two previous systems. One of the previous systems had its own message formatting codes, such as B for Bold and I for Italic. These codes import into the new system as plain text and lead to the formatting issue that you might run across on old messages.
I marked a reply to my question as the correct answer, but then discovered that it was not correct. Can I remove the Marked as Answered setting?
No, you can only set this for one reply and it cannot be removed. Please post a follow up message in the discussion thread with updated information, such as a clarification or rebuttal to the marked answer.
I am not clear on the points system in the Forums. Will I get points for simply posting questions or replying to questions?
No. Points are not given for simply posting a question or a reply. Points are awarded by the person who started a discussion. They can mark a reply to their question as either The Answer or as Helpful. They can mark one “Correct” answer and two “Helpful” answers per discussion thread.
I've clicked to edit my profile and now I'm lost. I can't get back to the discussion I was viewing.
Use the History link in the user bar.
Is there an alternative to the Rich Text Editor?
Yes, if you are comfortable with some basic HTML, you can click on the “HTML” link in the upper right corner of the Full Editor to switch to an HTML editor. If you use the HTML editor you need to remember to put in <p> and <br> tags between paragraphs, otherwise the HTML editor will remove extraneous white space (including carriage returns) in your message.

@ adobe-admin (J.C.?):
Thanks for fixing the "backslash" error. Accuracy is important, and doubly so when presented as an F.A.Q.
The sad thing is how prevalent the usage of "backslash" is when a plain old slash is meant (generally, the "forward" attribute is assumed and unneeded), and by people who should know better. It's a direct result of people knowing just barely enough about the Windows file path naming protocols, and then applying the only terminology they're familiar with incorrectly to URLs.
I went about 10 rounds—TWICE!—with a labyrinthian succession of people at the Discovery & History cable TV networks because they were saying "backslash" in voice overs whenever their commercials promoted their websites. It took some doing, but I finally got in touch with somebody who was savvy enough to recognize that it was a rookie mistake made by a clueless marketing copywriter. The voice over person just read the copy they were given, oblivious to the difference. It amazes me that it wasn't caught by somebody early in the recording/production process and rectified.
They then had it correct for about a year, until new commercials started popping up with the same error. Unfortunately, the person I had talked to previously no longer worked for the History channel and I had to go through the process of finding someone who understood all over again.
Yeah, you can call me a nitpicker with nothing better to do.
But I've earned that dang badge, and I wear it proudly!

QM-How to add a New "Output Format" in Certificate Profile?

Hello QM Functional Experts,
Can any of you tell me how we can add a custom "Output Format" in the Certificate Profile (QC01/2/3). I tried the Configuration approach via QM-Quality Certificates-Certificate Profile-Define Data Origin. I do not see an option here to add a New Output Format.
If this is posted in a wrong forum, I apologize. I am not able to find the correct forum for QM. Please redirect me and I will be glad to post it in the right forum.

Verity and New File Formats

I've searched the help files, KB, and forums and don't see an
answer to this question: Are there ever updates to the Verity
search functionality in ColdFusion to accomodate new file formats,
such as the newer versions of Word, PDF v7.0 and 8.0, etc? While
the search functionality of CF is great, it's somewhat limiting if
it can't be updated to index the latest file formats.
So does anyone know if it's possible to update Verity
(without waiting for major version upgrades in CF)?

You are asking an excellent question, Jos!
Converting all of the videos to DV-AVIs before combining them in the same project is an excellent idea. Because you are using a Mac, however, you should use the DV-MOV as your common video format. To do this you should use Share/Computer/MOV using the PAL-DV preset. (There are many types of MOVs. A DV-MOV is a specific type of MOV that is used when shooting and editing video on a computer.)
IN DUTCH:
U vraagt een heel goede vraag, Jos!
Het omzetten van alle video's naar DV-AVI's voordat ze te combineren in hetzelfde project is een uitstekend idee. Omdat je een Mac gebruikt, echter, moet u gebruik maken van de DV-MOV als je gezond videoformaat. Om dit te doen moet je Share / Computer / MOV met de PAL-DV preset te gebruiken. (Er zijn vele soorten van MOV's. Een DV-MOV is een specifieke vorm van MOV dat wordt gebruikt bij het opnemen en bewerken van video op een computer.)

Is there a way to defile new list format?

I want to defile new list format like this:
First:         Lab lab lab.
Second:    Another Lab lab.
Third:        Continueing the lab lab.
Or other like lists in different languages.

I think you probably mean "define" rather than defile, which in English is often used interchangeably with rape in literature, but I think we can figure this out OK. I'm sure your English is far better than my skills in your native language.
Can you mock up a list the way you want it to appear on a page and take a screen capture? You can embed the image into a post using the camea icon above the forum editing area:
I'm not sure I understand what it is that you want to do, exactly, but I suspect the capability is already built into the lists features in ID.

Thanks for the new Forum!

I would like to personally thank and (welcome all others to thank) the administrators, moderators or anybody involved with the evolution of our new forum. This new feature rich format is by far the best I have seen and I am a member of quit a few other forums. MSI should consider themselves very fortunate to have such a great team working on their forum. I know as users we are very appreciative, Thanks again!
P.S. Yes it seems like you have fixed the slowdown problems as the pages seem to be loading at normal speeds again.

I too have benefited from good advice on my MSI K8n Neo2 mb questions. The members here are knowledgable and polite. Questions asked nicely are answered by good suggestions. Thanks to MSI for sponsoring such a useful owner's forum.

Thanks Adobe! I LOVE this new forum software!

As someone who belongs to many, many forums over the years, I've gone through a lot of forum software changes. Generally, the vocal majority raise heck about it, but eventually things settle down and people go about their regular forum use with little effort.
These new forums are so much "easier on the eyes" than the mind-numbing sea of text we currently have. Some like the new colors, some hate it. Some like avatars & signatures, and some don't. But the reason you come here is for the information, and this new software WILL make it easier to find what you're looking for.
Macworld.com switched to this very same software last year. They had an obscenely large user base, all of which voiced their opinions repeatedly, to the point where many simply stopped visiting until the switchover was complete. In general, those that don't like change tend to voice their opinions the loudest. The vast majority though, tend to keep quiet and roll with changes. Today, Macworld's forums are running just fine, offer a plethora of new features, and are more active than they ever were previously.
I have no heavy interest in what Adobe does with these forums because I rarely visit the current ones - mostly because I find them absolutely unreadable. But I'm also betting I'll be using them a whole lot more once this switchover is complete. In fact, I KNOW I will.
Rather than complaining about change in general, colors, icons, avatars, signatures, bloated code, or whatever silly reason some are coming up with, time would be better spent simply helping to find bugs with what is there. Once the bugs are worked out, Adobe will most likely start looking at "fine-tuning" the look & feel.

> What I have noticed is that there is a totally different set of aesthetic values being exhibited here between the Users of the Adobe Professional Graphic Arts applications (Photoshop, Illustrator and InDesign) and the people who are almost entirely geared to AV or to web site work and the use of the formerly Macromedia products (such as Dreamweaver).
Ann, you may be correct. But if functionality is truly the most important feature of Adobe Forums, the WebX format falls dramatically short for my own applications:
WebX screws any code or script posted, generally making it unusable. For this reason, the Script and Expression areas of the After Effects forum are virtually non-existent. Users go to other places to discuss these features, because it's not practical to do so on the current forums.
A picture tells a thousand words. When new users come to the WebX forums and want to post a screen grab of their problem project, it's embarrassing to tell them they need to use an external image host to do so.
Video tells ten thousand words. The ability to easily embed YouTube and other online video content into a post is not just a great convenience, it's a way to teach, inform and demonstrate within the forum, rather than sending users somewhere else mid-discussion.
I share a number of your criticisms about the Jive Forums, but for me and the community which uses my frequented forums, the Jive system also offers features which are essential for productive use. As I suspect the new system, like the old, will evolve over time, I'm happy to embrace the positives of the change, and hope that any major problems can be resolved in time.

Forum formatting

Is it just my system or is the formatting broken.
I'm seeing HTML like stuff, and the formatting isn't happening.
This is a good argument for a forum to report forum problems, if It's just my system someone will tell me, otherwise it should go forward to sun. BTW, I have reported this in both New Forum Suggestions and the Contact Us form.

Yeah, and posts that worked before are now screwed up.
It seems pretty obvious that the data is OK, but when it's sent to the client all the HTML is quoted.
I believe there may be a flag that tells the JSP or servlet not to do that, but it may be missing here.
Sun isn't exactly inspiring confidence in their products, if they can't even run these forums reliably.
Tell me again why should I buy SunONE web/app/portal/whatever server products?

Why the new Discussions format is so wrong

This topic is not for what we like or don't like about the new discussions format, nor about what works and doesn't work. It's about philosophy.
Why do people come to the Apple Discussions? Why are the Apple Discussions so popular? What will the new format change?

Why do people come to the Apple Discussions? Why are
the Apple Discussions so popular? What will the new
format change?
I believe there are at least three reasons:
- To ask a question / get an answer
- For discussion
- For community
The new format focuses on the question/answer format only. It discourages discussion and destroys community.
Community is what makes Apple great. When someone becomes an Apple user they join a community.
The old Apple Discussions was a place for discussions, as well as for question/answer. The community joined together to help, to answer questions. It was a team effort.
The new format makes Apple Discussions like many other discussions, not a discussion, but a question/answer depot. Two people can be helpful, one can give the answer. End of discussion. End of community.
The old format encouraged partnership, the building of a helpful community.
The new format is individualistic: Question - answer - who's next?
Think about other help forums you have posted in. They are question/answer based. Once you have the answer to your question, do you go back? Rarely.
Why do the "experts," the ones with answers, come to the Apple Discussions? To help people, and also for community. The new format discourages discussion. With community gone, people will leave and look for community elsewhere. Then who will answer the questions?
The new format focuses on the question/answer format only. It discourages discussion and destroys community.
Do you agree? Disagree?

Why the change to an unusable forum format?

New forum is horible. Reminds me of the forum for Mac office on the MS site.
Since when is Apple about making life dificult?

I call BS on this one. I have a mini thats still running leopard (not snow leopard) and it still runs.
Upgrading for the sake of upgrading is dumb.
Why break something that works? Just to **** people off?
(I don't but a new car every year, nor a house once the garbage can is full)
Now this WILL work well for Apple. Many people will be put off with the new useless format won't ask Q's (or they will get lost), making Apple look awesome! (Must be a shareholder issue/choice Cha Ching!)

NEW FORUMS!!

Hello All,
We have today launched two additional forums for you. This will simplify and make it easier to access the information which would are looking for in a particular subject. We have also renamed the SAP Business One forum to SAP Business One Core and will begin moving relevant threads from this forum to the new forums in the coming weeks so please bear with us.
I would like to ask you all to pay particular attention to which forum you will post your questions as now more than ever there will be people with a particular expertise only looking to that forum; for example, people with expertise on DTW will only be looking in the SAP Business One - SAP Add-ons forum and so on.
I hope you will enjoy the new forums and that they will help you in your everyday tasks and activities. From SAP Business One Support side, we will continue to work on the forums to provide as many solutions to your questions as possible. Any feedback from the community is appreciated here.
The forums will look and operate as follows:
1. SAP Business One Core: This forum will deal with all matters related to AR/AP / Banking / Service / HR / MRP / Production / Financials / Sales opportunities. Existing content will be moved from this forum to the relevant forums in the coming weeks
2. SAP Business One System Administration: This forum will deal with all matters related to the system setup / installation / upgrades / updates / connectiviry / performance / crashes / configuration / system landscape etc. Content from the current SAP Business One Core will be moved here in coming weeks to already give a base of threads.
3. SAP Business One - SAP Add-ons: This forum will cover all SAP addons (Fixed Assets, Elster, Datev, Copy Express, DTW, Intrastat, Microsoft Outlook Integration, Format Definition, Bank Transaction Handling Facility, Payment Engine and Payment Engine - Cash & Bank) with the exception of XLR and Crystal Reports which will remain in the SAP Business One Reporting & Printing forum.
4. SAP Business One Reporting & Printing: This forum will continue to cover all matters related to printing / PLD / XLR / Crystal Reports / Queries / Formatted searches etc
Regards,
Paul

Thanks Paul for this Initiative.
So much as it is a help due to the categorization of the forums by subject. It might need a good amount of effort on the part of the moderators to make sure we have the right question in the right forums.
I have seen that members post questions to the wrong forums and having them understand the value and their role in keeping this clean is important.
Good luck

Do new forums support digests

I have been a long-time subscriber to both Acrobat and FrameMaker forums via email digests. Since the new forums started I have recieved nothing, and I can't even find an option for selecting a digest any more. Can someone tell me if there is still a digest option, and if so, how do I re-instate it?
Thanks
Graeme Worth

If you are looking for the old NNTP (news format), it is no longer available. You might try the e-mail format that are listed in the upper right corner the forum. There is also a mailing list format under your stuff. I don't know if any of these do what you want, but it is a starting point. You might get a better answer if you do to the General Forums discussion group. It is best to leave this discussion group for Acrobat.

Why did apple screw up the discussion forum format?

Why did apple screw up the discussion forum format?

Hi,
Apple in this case has to rely on what software is out there that can handle the amount of Traffic that these boards get.
This is from the Brows Option the selecting People in the box
Note the Number
At the Launch of the new software this was at just over 2,250,000 and has now topped 2,300,000
That is well over 50,000 people joining in just 2 weeks.
Jive are the only real players in this market.
To some extent the software is a one size fits all, much like the previous software was.
We got used to the look and the Folder type layout of the Previous software.
We ignored the foibles of where things were placed.
Things are somewhat double edged in my view.
I post mostly about iChat.
I don't like that the Leopard and Snow Leopard forums that were are now "Refine the List"/Tag led searching to read specific threads. (not to mention that returning to "Dicussions" loses the "refinement").
On the other hand those same threads and anwsers are now a lot more viewable in the OS forums than the subforums of before.
As a regular poster I use a couple of Boiler plate things for a welcome message and my Signature.
Some were made with TextExpander and included the HTML code to sttyle things slightly.
These no longer work without going to the HTML editor.
Posting link used to use the BBCodeXtra add-on to Firefox but this action is now included in the Regular and Advanced Editor.
That means I equipped myself and used things to get around shortcomings of the old software which is some cases I either don't need or need to learn the new way.
I am sure the Style will morph as we go along.
Of course some of this relies on what exactly you mean by:-
