No Adobe or Macromedia

The nightmare began on Tuesday morning. I was working with Photoshop CS2 as usual the night before, and that night, instead of putting my powerbook sleep, I shut it down. Next morning, I got up, turn on my powerbook, first thing I noticed was the green leaf having a red cross mark in the menu bar, which had never happened before, and found that ALL adobe programs stopped responding.
I first tried out in a different account, then uninstalled and reinstalled all CS2, but the result was the same. I called adobe tech support for help, and we did everything we could think of - we reinstalled CS2 in safe mode, using root acoount, after repairing hardrive with utility. None worked. Message kept apparening every time I tried to launch any CS2 program - serious problem has been detected using adobe programs, please reinstall your program.
I think t is a program problem, not my computer, because all other programs work fine. But I think this is something to do with hardware problem - some files may be messing up my adobe programs?
I am afraid, at thin point, all I can do is to reformat my harddrive (I have partition for all my documents and files, so I will reformat only the one with apps/systems/utilities/library, but them what if still adobe programs fail to respond? What REALLY is the problem?

as a guess, issue could be with related preferences or cache files.
on the hard drive in Library folder/Preferences folder, look for files like "com.adobe.**.plist" and move them to trash.
do not go into System/Library or User/Library, only to the Library folder on root level of hard drive.
also, look for Library/Caches/Adobe folder and empty Adobe folder.
try at your own risk though.

  • Adobe vs Macromedia Dreamweaver?

    First off, I've been having some very frustrating issues with Adobe's version of Dreamweaver. I recently just started using Adobe Dreamweaver CS5, after using Macromedia Dreamweaver 8 for years. When it comes to coding, I have to say Adobe DW has the upper hand, but when it comes to using the design interface Macromedia definitely beats out Adobe DW, and I'm very disappointed Adobe DW has lost its intuitive touch in that area.
    Several years ago when I was in Junior High I was using Macromedia DW to build a complex, completely customized site (from scratch), using images I made in Photoshop--and I did it all in the design interface, without needing to touch any of the coding aspects of the program. Now, having just graduated from college, I decided to upgrade try out Adobe DW, but I have had nothing but problems with the design interface. It's clumsy, difficult to use, and far less intuitive than the Macromedia version. When a Junior High student can make an entire website in the design interface, but a college graduate can't, I begin to worry. My question is: when Adobe integrated Macromedia products into its company, did it choose to ditch the design-friendly interface of DW and concentrate on coding instead, or is there something I'm missing?
    Now, before anyone mentions that Dreamweaver is first and foremost a coding program (which I believe myself,) I don't understand how or why the design interface has suffered to much from one developer to the other.
    Here's my plight:
    I am generally a big fan of Adobe. Being an artist, I spend many hours a week using Photoshop as my primary digital art program. However, I am not a web developer, and I do not plan to be one. I know limited HTML, and I cannot afford to invest time or money in learning code-based languages when all I want to do is make a single personal website for my job portfolio and résumé. But, as an artist I want to be able to do this from scratch, using images I have designed myself. I would like to utilize the design aspect of DW, but Adobe has made this ridiculously difficult, to the point where I haven't even been able to make an index page after many days of frustration.
    Any advice or tips on how to jump some of the design hurdles in Adobe DW, or links to tutorials on the design interface would be very helpful and much appreciated. Or, any suggestions for alternate design-friendly products would be great, too. Remember, I still want to ability to create a page from scratch (none of that pre-set layout stuff) in a design interface. If a program exists like this, I have yet to find it, and I would be very grateful to hear about one.
    Do not hesitate to ask me any more questions if it can help you with your answer. Thank you very much!

    DW is only as good as the skills you bring to the table.  What you learned in Junior High School has all changed.
    Modern web standards assert that style (CSS) be separate from content (HTML).  As such, DW changed its UI to support this.   You can style your HTML in code view if you prefer, but a site wide CSS page is infinitely better and more efficient.

  • Should I buy Adobe and Macromedia Captivate?

    I am looking to use Capitivate as a teaching aid for
    software. Please can I have some advice about the difference
    between Adobe and Macormedia Captivate. Which is the best to buy?
    Cheers
    ML

    There is no Macromedia Captivate. Captivate was a Macromedia
    product . . .
    Adobe bought Macromedia (the whole company) after Captivate
    version 1 was released, then created version 2 branded for Adobe.
    So the long and short of it is that if you have version 1, you have
    Macromedia Captivate, and if you have version 2, you have Adobe
    Captivate.
    Hope this helps ...

  • Adobe and Macromedia running through Rosetta - Is Ram helping?

    Hey folks ~
    Man, do I ever have a love affair with Apple. My prized iPod, the laptop that doesn't leave my side...it's sick, really. Here comes the super-rockin MacBook Pro. I watched the keynote with Steve, I read the reviews, I knew what I was getting into.
    I'm also a patient man, so let's not take this the wrong way. I read the "what a gyp, this is how I earn my living" post. This isn't that angle.
    I have experienced lots of Adobe and Macromedia products (CS2/Studio 8) shutting down and hanging. A lot of slow loading. Adobe Bridge barely eeking out an existence. Mac OSX apps, not so bad. I have 1GB of RAM. Has anyone seen improvement and good performance with more RAM? Anyone else having these problems?
    Oh, and taking the battery out and holding the power key to reset PRAM totally works to keep it running cooler.
    MacBook Pro   Mac OS X (10.4.5)  

    Speaking of swap file sizes, I run menu meters, and I have had the mac book up and running for 3 days, it sleeps at night, aparently that's what you do with macs ? (Been a PC dweeb for 15 years)
    Menu meters is telling me i've gt 8 swap files, that's 2.5 gig, this is too much right ? I should reboot to clear some out ? I use Dreamweaver and Word tonnes, are these Rosetta apps gonna be rinsing my hard disk for swap space ?
    I've got the stock 512 megs of ram, I was going to get a single 1 gig chip soon, like end of the month. I know I'll loose the dual channel stuff by not having equal sized chip yada yada - apparently this is only like a 3% drop in performance ? Or should I not waste any time and just get two 1 gig chips to gimme 2 gig in total soonest ?

  • Adobe flash macromedia

    Almost every other page on the Internet requires a newer version of adobe flash macromedia and when I try to download it it says apple doesn't allow it. So basically I can't see 50 % of the sites I need, the iPad becomes a little useless for using the Internet.... What can I do? Or can I download it on the computer and then sync with iPad???

    If flash is that important to you, return the ipad or sell it, and get something else that works for you, because clearly the ipad is not going to meet your needs, unfortunately. There is no flash for iOS devices, i.e., ipad, iphone, ipod touch. More info here:

  • Old versions & Adobe vs Macromedia

    I have just run the Secunia Software Inspector which found
    vulnerabilites in:
    Adobe Flash Player 9.x
    Macromedia Flash Player 5.x
    Macromedia Flash Player 7.x
    and directs me in all three cases to obtain an update at:
    ttp://www.adobe.com/go/getflash
    Firstly, what is the relationship between Macromedia Flash
    and Adobe Flash?
    Secondly, if I go to the Adobe URL mentioned above, will the
    Adobe update also update Macromedia?
    Thirdly, Where do I find these programs? My
    \ProgramFiles\Adobe folder contains:
    Acrobat 6.0, Acrobat 7.0, and Reader 8.0. I assume that
    Acrobat 6 & 7 are just prior versions of Reader. Is this
    correct?
    If so I supose that they can be removed, but how does one
    remove them as they do not show up in \ControlPanel\ Add/Remove
    Software?
    Where can I locate:
    Macromedia Flash Player 5.x
    Macromedia Flash Player 7.x ? Can I remove them?
    Many thanks.

    It's been a while since I formally uninstalled Flash Player,
    so I'm not
    100% sure how the current Adobe uninstaller works. You did
    mention
    previous installations of Flash Player, and the uninstaller
    application may
    help you get rid of the older ones. If it gets rid of them
    all, it's very
    easy to re-install the latest (Flash Player 9).
    If you're interested on where the Flash Player installation
    files go,
    you might get some insight from reading about a Firefox
    extension by
    Alessandro Grugnola ...

    Yes, Reader opens PDF files. If you also have Acrobat, which
    creates
    PDF files, then the file format itself (PDF) might be
    associated with
    Acrobat rather than Reader, but either one reads PDF files.
    And if all you
    have is Reader, then Reader is the one that reads them.

    That would depend on what operating system you're using. I
    use Windows
    XP, and if I didn't see those apps listed in the Add/Remove
    Software dialog,
    I would probably just delete those folders inside the Program
    Files\Adobe
    folder. Note: I'm not suggesting you do that yourself. I have
    no right to
    take responsibility for your installations, and I'm not an
    Acrobat/Reader
    expert. Have you looked into any Adobe TechNotes for Reader?

  • How will Director develop after Adobe buy Macromedia?

    I was very surprised when IE tell me that www.macromedia.com
    is not exist, until I get the news that Adobe has bought it.
    I want to know how Director will develop in the future? How
    will Shockwave3D develop in the future? Will they become stronger,
    or be thrown into warehouse and stop developing?
    Director and Shockwave3D are excellent and they are
    technical base of many companies (Such as my company). We don't
    know how to do if Director will be thrown into warehouse!

    No warehousing, don't worry.

  • Adobe Flash vs Macromedia Flash & Shockwave

    I ran Secunia PSI. It said I needed to update my Adobe Flash
    Player. I downloaded the uninstaller from Adobe first and ran it,
    and then installed the most recent player. When I go to the test
    page it says I have the most recent version.
    However, under end-of-life programs Secunia lists the
    Macromedia Flash Player 8.x version 8.0.24.0 five times for some
    reason. Then I go into Add/Remove and I see a listing for
    Macromedia Shockwave Player (not Macromedia Flash Player). Under
    end-of-life it also lists Adobe SVG Viewer 1.x version 1.0.0.94.
    I thought I understood that Adobe replaces Macromedia, but
    now I am so confused. Are these end-of-life programs creating
    security risks even though I do have the latest Adobe Flash Player
    -- and should I be removing any or all of the above mentioned
    Secunia end-of-life items?

    Yes it is Free and you should update.
    Do the following:
    * Update Firefox, [[Update Firefox to the latest version]]
    * Update your plugins (including Flash) http://www.mozilla.org/plugincheck/
    * Update Windows windowsupdate.microsoft.com (Use Ineter Explorer to visit that site)

  • Shantanu Narayen, President and CEO of Adobe

    Here is some general information about the history of Adobe for new users. But later on quotes from Shantanu Narayen, President and CEO of Adobe.
    1) In 2005 Adobe buys Macromedia:
    "On April 18, 2005 Adobe Systems announced a definitive agreement to acquire Macromedia in an all-stock transaction valued at approximately $3.4 billion."
    Great! Just buy out competitors and add their programs to your portfolio:
    ColdFusion, Flash, Fireworks, Dreamweaver.
    2) In 2009 Adobe buys Omniture
    Shantanu Narayen led the $1.8 billion acquisition of Omniture, Inc.
    In a press release, Adobe's president and CEO Shantanu Narayen called the deal a "game changer for both Adobe and our customers"
    There is no denying that. Adobe knows how to change the game. Usually without any warning or consideration to the end user whatsoever.
    Quote from Shantanu Narayen:
    "When you think about digital media, Adobe is already the largest provider of tools and services for the creative community. Everybody is re-tooling for the future of web - devising strategies for new and multiple screens (television, mobile, tablet/PC)and app stores. With devices like photoshop touch and cloud-based services, we are aggressively moving towards that shift."
    Adobe? Agressive? No, no, no. You must be thinking of a different Adobe.
    wikipedia.org:
    "Critics have accused Omniture of attempting to hide the fact they are collecting data. Critics claim they do this by sending the information to a domain name that looks and sounds similar to an IP address used to connect to devices on the local network and not the Internet. This has led to speculation that the domain name is used to trick users or firewall rules."
    Sounds like something Adobe would want to own alright.
    3) In 2012 Adobe buys Behance
    Quote from the Behance blog:
    "Our mission to connect and empower the creative world is getting a big boost today. Our team is thrilled to join Adobe and take Behance to the next level. We’ve been given an opportunity to influence creative work, careers, and the creative industry on a grand scale, and we intend to do just that."
    Sigh, please don't. just don't. We are being influenced enough as it is.
    Quote from Shantanu Narayen (December 2012):
    "I'm pleased to report we delivered record revenue of $1,153,000,000 in Q4. This performance helped us achieve record revenue of $4.4 billion in fiscal year 2012."
    At the very high expense of customer satisfaction and loyalty. Time will tell how strong your monopoly really is.
    Shantanu Narayen:
    "At Adobe, we're focused on 2 large market opportunities: Digital Media and Digital Marketing. 2012 was a milestone year in terms of innovation with our Creative Cloud and Adobe Marketing Cloud. We achieved great success in both these areas."
    Shantanu Narayen:
    "Adobe is changing how we provide value to a broader set of customers. We will deliver customized offerings for individuals, workgroups and large enterprises. As with all successful subscription services, we're offering a free trial program. This enables an easy on-ramp and a funnel of prospects that we intend to convert to paying subscribers."
    Turning us into future Cloud drug addicts, The first one's always free! Thanks Adobe!
    "We have begun transitioning enterprise customers to enterprise term license agreements, which provide them cloud services and updates to our desktop tools. Pricing for each segment is designed to reward loyal customers and aggressively transition them to the cloud."
    Once again. Adobe? Agressive? Surely you jest!
    "An advisory agency, Brendan Wood International, had ranked the 'Top Gun CEOs'  for 2009 based on their ability to make smart acquisitions, make themselves visible and expand the company's value propositions, among other things."
    "Shantanu Narayen has been in the industry for a very long time and always has a strong sense of what the next key steps are in terms of positioning the company in the industry."
    Yeah well, I guess you can't always be right.
    "When Adobe announced in 2003 it was introducing product "collections and suites", customers and industry watchers wondered about Adobe's motivations. Was it all about money? Ultimately Adobe's Creative Suite of products became the standard.
    Narayen anticipates a similar kind of embrace for Adobe CC. "A few years from now, people will say, 'How could I even imagine a Photoshop that was not connected to the cloud?'"
    Dark times ahead indeed if that happens.
    Quote from Shantanu Narayen - May 2013:
    "And finally, in monetization, whether it's video that's going to increasingly move to IP networks, whether it's physical retailers who are increasingly moving their business online, I think the more we can transact business and close the loop with respect to monetization, we think that, that's a big opportunity available for us as Adobe."
    Yes, having a monopoly sure is awesome. Not having to deal with those pesky free market systems.
    Shantanu Narayen:
    "A strategy that we outlined over a couple of years ago is really through the combination of what we call the Creative Cloud and the Marketing Cloud, to really have a complete solution that provides this integrated platform across the entire content life cycle."
    In other words, Adobe will get its greedy little hands on everything we could possibly want to do. And aggressively force us to go along with it.
    And finally a quote from Steve Jobs when talking about a music subscription service:
    “I think you could make available the Second Coming in a subscription model and it might not be successful.”
    Let's face it. This 'Cloud scheme' is all about the money. It has no real extra value to us, the ''valued and loyal customers'. The only way to possibly change this as some other users have said on this forum is to vote with your wallet. That's the only thing that matters to the people at the top of Adobe. Money money money.
    Customer satisfaction? Adobe doesn't care. Customer loyalty? Adobe doesn't care. And the sad thing is. Eventually we will tire from complaining and just conform to this sad new reality...

    You are not viewd by anyone at Adobe as anything but $$$$$$$$$$$$$
    Your art your soul or anything else do not matter what matters is $$$$$$$$$$$$$$
    From Adobe to wall street
    current and thereby driving higher average revenue per user. Additionally, our shift to a subscription model will increase the amount of recurring revenue that is ratably reported, driven by broader Creative Cloud adoption over the next several years.
    To assist with the understanding of this transition and the related shift in revenue described above, we are using certain performance metrics to assess the health and trajectory of our overall Digital Media segment.
    These metrics include the total number of current paid subscriptions and Annualized Recurring Revenue ("ARR"). We define ARR as the sum of:
    � the number of current paid subscriptions, multiplied by the average subscription price paid per user per month, multiplied by twelve months; plus,
    � twelve months of contract value of Enterprise Term License Agreements ("ETLAs") where the revenue is ratably recognized over the life of the contract.
    In addition, we expect renewal rates associated with Creative Cloud, and potentially other subscription offerings, will become key metrics used to measure their performance. Because the majority of Creative Cloud subscriptions have been annual and the Creative Cloud launched in May 2012, we have not yet reached the first anniversary of these annual subscriptions and, therefore, we anticipate that meaningful data regarding subscription renewal rates will first become available later in fiscal year 2013.

  • Adobe Photoshop CS3 Will Not Install PLEASE HELP TRIED EVERYTHING

    I downloaded from Adobe the Photoshop CS3 Extended Trial directly from Adobe. (BTW I am on Vista 32)
    The first time I tried installing, ADBEPHSPCS3_WWE.exe successfully unpacked, I successfully transitioned to the Adobe Photoshop CS3 installation, and it appeared to install. After 30 minutes or so, the installer finished and simply said that shared components had installed but the Photoshop CS3 Component install failed.
    I always got in the log Error 1935.An error occurred during the installation of assembly 'Microsoft.VC80.MFCLOC,version="8.0.50727.163",type="win32",publicKeyToken="1fc8b3b9a1e18 e3b",processorArchitecture="x86"'. Please refer to Help and Support for more information
    This, I know, is everyones typical problem.
    I turned off firewall and antivirus.
    I uninstalled ALL Adobe and Macromedia programs, including Flash and Acrobat.
    I used Windows Install Cleanup Utility to remove them.
    I downloaded the CS3 Clear from Adobe and cleared at levels 1, 2, and 3.
    I created the Administrator account on my computer and tried everything on the Administrator account.
    I tried installing Photoshop CS3 with compatibility mode for XP SP2.
    I tried:
    1. Open an Administrator command prompt by right clicking on Start -> All
    Programs -> Accessories -> Command Prompt and selecting "Run as
    Administrator" and clicking "Allow" for the elevation prompt
    2. In the command prompt, type the command below
    fsutil resource setautoreset true C:\
    3. Reboot the machine
    I tried:
    Get command prompt up. It has to be run with admin rights so save yourself some time and run it this way.........Start/programs/accessories/.....right click command prompt and click run as administrator.
    Then paste these commands in 1 after the other
    regsvr32 vbscript.dll (THEN PRESS ENTER)
    and
    regsvr32 jscript.dll (AGAIN PRESS ENTER)
    I even tried installing in Safe Mode but the CS3 setup would not initialize.
    I do not know what else to do. I have CS2 which I will use, but I was really hoping to move to CS3 which is supposed to be better and faster. Does anyone know anything else to do? I am not a computer noob but I am not about to reinstall Vista. If anyone has any suggestions they would be greatly appreciated.

    I was in the same predicament and after spend many hours over several days trying a multitude of things I finally found an easy fix (below):
    ========================================
    Assuming you have Internet Explorer 7 go to:
    Tools/Internet option/Advanced
    Click the Reset dialog box. This will bring IE7 back to its default settings. You should reboot your computer. After logging back into Windows load IE and let it take you though its initial setup. When you are done close IE and install Photoshop.. This worked for me,,, hopefully it will work for you!

  • How to make a Compliant to Adobe

    Hello
    I'm sure this is in the wrong place, but hopefully someone will be able to help.
    How on earth do you complain to Adobe? Most websites have a complaints section or an email address - all i've found with adobe was a link to a PDF that includes an email address for complaint to accounts (which is close to what my complaint is in regards to - sales.) but the email bounces back.
    http://www.adobe.com/macromedia/ir/macr/corp/pdf/policy_accounting.pdf 
    HELP?
    Thanks

    That document was from macromedia and I presume any contact information has now long been moved over to adobe. Only place for contact information is the Contact tab on the website. Not sure if there is a specific sales complaints address. Maybe your local office if you have an enterprise sales complaint.

  • Link between Acrobat 3D and Flash (Macromedia) objects?

    Since Adobe acquired Macromedia(*) will we see a convergence of some sort between the Acrobat 3D capabilities and the ones already in Flash, for example the capabiliy to manipulate 3D objects interactively in Flash content? Thanks!
    * http://www.adobe.com/aboutadobe/invrelations/adobeandmacromedia.html

    Using FW CS3 for Web designs.
    As most of you know, you can implement some Photoshop Live
    Effects inside FW CS3 but not 100%.
    I am curious why?
    For example, in FW CS3, when I try to implement "Satin"
    effect to a button, my preferences are limited compared to Photosop
    version. In Photosop you can select a preset contour and you can
    change the blend mode. But in FW you can only change angle,
    distance, color, size and opacitiy.
    And same thing goes for other effects. They don't have same
    options, and they don't create same effect with PS CS3.
    I am asking this because I used strictly FW for my Web
    designs, but now I see that I can create much cooler buttons in PS
    CS3, which is mainly a photo editor :/
    Is there any way to make it 100% PS compatible?
    Thanks.

    Based on the timing, I suspect that development of FW CS3 was
    started
    before Adobe and Macromedia merge. So the fact that they are
    not 100%
    compatible does not look surprizing to me. Probably it will
    change in the
    future. Take into account that PS and FW are rather big
    projects, they
    cannot be fully re-coded in a minute.

  • Adobe flex and SRM

    Hello  friends,
    Adobe flex is coming up in the market with rocket speed?  If I want to compare this product with SRM, what would you think will be the pros and cons/ advantages and disadvantages of Flex over SRM?
    Thanks,
    Pat.

    Hi,
    Adobe Flex is a collection of technologies released by Adobe Systems for the development and deployment of cross-platform rich Internet applications based on the proprietary Adobe Flash platform. The initial release in March 2004 by Macromedia included a software development kit, an IDE, and a J2EE integration application known as Flex Data Services. Since Adobe acquired Macromedia in 2005, subsequent releases of Flex no longer require a license for Flex Data Services, which has become a separate product rebranded as LiveCycle Data Services.
    Pat please help me understand in what ways you want to compare Flex with SRM.?
    SRM is a complete ERP product where as Flex i kind of add-on.
    Thanks
