New guy! Recently purchased CS5 web premium,

Hi All,
I recently purchased CS5 web premium, I realize that I need to learn about ALL the programs, Is there an order that I should learn in? Is it better to start with Photoshop or Flash? Dreamweaver or Illustrator?
Also, I noticed that there are 3 Flash programs, Flash Professional, Flash Catalyst, Flash Builder 4. Are these used together or standalone? is there a correct order to learn these applications?
Can't wait to learn but don't know where to start!!! Appreciate all help!!
Thanks!

Well, what is it that you actually want to do? I really suggest you watch at least some overviews and basic tutorials. You seem mightily confused as to what each program is actualyl used for and ultimately that in combination with your needs will dictate learning priorities.
Flash Professional, Flash Catalyst, Flash Builder 4. Are these used together or standalone?
FC is something completely different than the "real" Flash and a simplified tool to produce animations and presentations without programming. Flash Pro is the "standard" Flash, part graphical animation, part programming. FB (formerly Flex) is the geek version of Flash which mostly focuses on programming for server-side stuff on large websites with dynamically generated Flash content.

  • Need some advice on a new build for CS5 Web Premium

    I am looking for a powerful PC that I can use mostly for work and some  light video work.  I have been looking at several systems, but I can't  decide if I should get the Core i7 875K, 950 or AMD 1090T for my needs.   I typically have many Adobe CS5 applications open at once like  Photoshop, Dreamweaver, Illustrator and Flash, iTunes, Quickbooks,  Microsoft Work and Excel. I would ideally like to buy a pre-built rig,  but I can surely put together if better.  Below are a few I have been  looking at, but I am unsure about cooling on one of them and about the  875K processor on the other one.  I figured a gaming PC would be fast  and powerful as my needs are behond a standard base config.  I would  like some advice also on a good video card.  Been looking at crossfire  ATI HD 5770, single ATI HD 5870, Radeon 6870, and GeForce GTX 470 and SLI GTX 460. I am not a typical overclocker, but I  can be if it will help performance running apps.  I leave my PC on all  day and night so cooling is a factor.
    Thanks in advance everyone for the advice on this.
    ==========================================
    Approximate Purchase Date: (the closer the better) 
    Budget Range: ($1000-$1500)

    Preferred Website(s) for Parts: (newegg.com)

    Here is the final config I am looking to get.  I am just debating the hard drive config and video cards.  I want to be sure my video card will use teh GPU Accelleration and Advance features of Photoshop CS5.  Do you know if the NVIDIA GTX 460 is compatable or should I spend more for the 470?  I will not be gaming much and this pc is used mostly for work on CS5 Web Premium.  How does this all look?  All prices from NewEgg. I have another machine I will backup sata to each evening, so I really want a fast drive for program load and operation and another drive for data.  What is best way to config drives?  Should I get 2 of them and an SSD?

  • CS5 Web Premium without Flash Builder Premium?

    So after spending an arm and a leg, you do not get a Flash Builder Premium with CS5 Web Premium but only Standard? This surprises me as I thought Adobe's greed is not as big as long term goals, promotion of Flash platform, being nice to users, especially as we all know Flash is a bit thin on some platforms and on the web at the moment. Obviously I was wrong and the greed surpasses all imaginable levels.
    I frankly don't get the calculation where for the same price I get a State Of The Art Hardware - Mac, plus all the Apple dev tools for FREE. That's a computer, yes a laptop, the best out there, brand new, PLUS the software. On the other hand Adobe (with whose products you can't build and sell as good apps as with Apple's), is selling you Web **Premium** at a very high price, and YET you have to pay even more to actually get FB **Premium**.
    Is FB considered like a useless add-on into the Web Premium bundle? Did they think, heck nobody will need it but let's give the basic version there to promote it a bit. Sort of like when you buy Windows, they give you a trial of some Antivirus software. Or is anybody thinking that FB is something I will use 80% out of Web Premium bundle? Or should it be packed with Video bundle? I really don;t get it.
    So it's like this for the same money
    Apple = Mac + Great Dev Tools + Tons of other apps
    Adobe = CS5 Web Premium minus- FB Premium
    To be fair, I did hear a rumor that if you complain to Adobe Customer Care, that they give you a license for free, which is the only fair thing. However, I'm waiting for quite some time now as my support case is on hold. What do you guys think about it and do you have any experience with it?

    Gritty_d it appears that Flash Builder 4.6 is only included with Production Premium and Master Collecton CS6 - http://www.adobe.com/products/creativesuite.html.  It is not included currently with the Creative Cloud.
    Did you purchase the upgrade to Web Premium or were you given a free upgrade to Creative Suite 6?

  • CS5 Web Premium has to be ran as administrator?

    I am having some difficulties getting a trial version of CS5 web premium running on my new Windows 7 64bit workstation.
    I downloaded the installer from Adobe.  Ran it and all seemed ok until I tried to start an application.  I started getting Error 213:11.
    Following some advice if found on this site through Google, I uninstalled every piece of Adobe software I had, I ran a CS5 cleanup script provided by Adobe and re-installed CS5.  No change.
    Following this Tech note: http://kb2.adobe.com/cps/835/cpsid_83576.html, I changed the permissions on the indicated folder to not be read only.  No Change.
    I used the "Run as Administrator" option on a program.  And it worked.  I closed the program and started it normally, same error code but after the program started not before it started as previously happened.  Set the program to run as administrator in the compatibility options and it starts.  Started another program in the suite that I had not previously started and it gets the Error 212:11, but after the program starts again.
    Why would I have to run all these programs as an adminstrator?  I try to follow the best practice of not using the computer as an administrator when I don't need to be!  Is this going to change when I apply our license key after it arrives from our Maintaince program an a couple of weeks?

    Hi there,
    I have a related problem and feel a solution to the above issue might be able to help!  I recently installed CS5 Master Collection onto a networked machine running Windows XP (32-bit).  We generally log into our machines at work using an account without administrator rights - when needing to install software, we log in as an administrator.
    I installed CS5 Master Collection whilst logged in as an administrator, without any problem.  I was also able to launch the CS5 programs without any problem whilst using this administrator account.
    If I then log in with my normal account (without administrator rights) and launch a CS5 program, it immediately crashes.  The standard Windows 'crash' message comes up:  'Adobe Encore [for example] has encountered a problem and needs to close'.
    If I launch a CS5 program 'running as' an administrator, whilst logged in with my normal (non-administrator) account, it works.
    I've also tried changing the permissions/write access associated with the CS5 Master Collection folders: I logged in as an administrator, right-clicked on the CS5 folders, hit the 'Security' tab and then changed the access so that they're open to all users on the machine.  Logging back in with my normal account, all of the programs still crashed immediately after launching.
    I feel that I'm missing something very obvious - any help would be greatly appreciated!
    Cheers,
    Tom

  • Problems with CS5 Web Premium Disks Being Unreadable

    I pre-ordered my CS5 Web Premium update and finally received the three disk set on May 6.  Attempted to install and the first disk which was the Suite installed fine.  The other two disks were unreadable.  I called Adobe support and they shipped another set to me which arrived today, May 12, and the same thing happened with the same two disks - Adobe Acrobat and CS5 Content.  The disks are unreadable on five of my Macs and three windows machines.
    Called tech support and was bounced around from Customer Service to support in India and back to Customer Service and finally told them I just wanted a refund after about ninety minutes on the call.  I do find it funny that I was passed to Tech Support to "troubleshoot" unreadable disks. 
    A simple solution which nobody at Adobe seemed to grasp is to allow you to download a copy even if you paid for a shipped copy. I am amazed that this is not an option.  So now I will eat the shipping costs and send my box back to Adobe and wait for what will probably be months before they credit my card back for the purchase.
    Anybody else having problems with the install disks?

    CS5 loads fine but Acrobat is unreadable and the Content disk is unreadable.  The CS5 trial download doesn't include the content or Acrobat.  Acrobat is a windows only download.   So the trial download only installs what comes on disk 1 which is the only good disk of the three in the shipment.
    A guy I talked to in Tech Support acknowledged that they produced a bad batch of disks and it seems I got two shipments of bad disks.

  • If I buy creative suite cs5 web premium for students, I will still may install it in, a mac desktop

    If I buy creative suite cs5 web premium for students, I will still may install it in, a mac desktop and windows laptop same license?

    Not sure where you're getting this idea from but it doesn't matter how you purchase the software (Suite or standalone) the answer is still, no.
    One license, one platform (Mac or Win)
    Mac software works on Mac only.
    Win software works on Win only.
    From the End User License Agreement (EULA)
    2.11 Dual Boot Platform. The Software is licensed for use on a specific operating system platform. You
    must purchase a separate license for use of the Software on each operating system platform. By way of
    example, if you desire to install the Software on both the Mac OS and Windows operating system platforms
    on a device that runs both of those platforms (i.e., a dual boot machine), then you must first obtain two
    separate licenses for the Software. This is true even if two versions of the Software, each designed for a
    different operating system platform, are delivered to you on the same media.
    From your repeated questions on this topic, does it mean that you have a Mac desktop and a Win laptop and you're trying the find the cheapest route to get DW and Flash Builder on both?

  • Adobe CS5 Web Premium

    Hi,
    Has anyone re packaged Adobe CS5 Web premium ,i was just trying to make a silent setup for this Suite using the Install.xml/Uninstall.xml method but i was suprised to see that when we pass the following parameter with the setup.exe which is --record=1 the following installtion/un installation xmls are not getting created at the desired location which is C:\Program Files\Common Files\Adobe\Uninstall...according to the various Adobe blogs for earlier products like Adobe CS4 and CS3 this is the specified way of creating the installation/uninstallation xml.But has anyone implemented the same on Adobe CS5,i had tried to implement it but that was not working.
    So i decided to download the Adobe Enterprise Manager tool and then go ahead with deployment method of creating Build MSI,yes it was a success but on installing the MSI all the CS5 products were installed but along with the main setup.exe there were various other products such as Adobe AIR,Adobe Help,Adobe Media Player which are not getting installed  after the Build MSI is installed.Any insights guys??
    Cheers

    I am having trouble installing CS5 web premium on window 8.1.  I have the disc and have also tried from adobe downloads.  I keep getting an installer that doesn't work and refers me to adobe support that no longer exists.  Can someone please help me?

    Ok, thanks.
    I'll go trough your tips.
    At a quick glans it seems that the answer may be
    Main installation log errors
    Log string
    Error description
    Possible solution
    Exit Code: 20 - install source path does not exist
    Install source files are missing.
    Reextract or copy the contents of the installer.
    My installation is in swedish so my error text is translated.
    I'll get back when I've tried this out.

  • I recently purchased HP 8500 Premium. Occasionally prints garbled text. I have XP Pro OS

    I recently purchased HP 8500 Premium.  Occasionally prints garbled text.  I have XP Pro Operating System.  

    I contacted HP Support AND also checked on their website.  HP has only provided Apple Update with a basic Printer Driver for this Model of Printer for Lion (which I also own).  The original HP Software that came with your Printer is NO longer supported with LION.  HP told me they may eventually update THEIR software, or may not.  In the meantime they direct people who need to SCAN to Apple's very basic "PRINT & SCAN" utility in System Preferences:
    Click the Apple menu ( ), and then click System Preferences .
    Click Print & Scan ( ).
    Click Scan , and then click Open Scanner .
    Click Show Details . The details of the scan display, including options to modify scan settings such as output type.Figure 2: Example of the Show Details scanning screen
    Change any settings as necessary, and then click Scan .
    Hope this helps
