OS Volume not supported ... will that issue ever be tackled?

Hi,
I got really annoyed today when I tried to install CS3 on my Mac because of this (probably famous) "OS Volume not supported" pop up. A little google research quickly resolved that it was the case sensitivity choice for my filesystem which causes all this trouble.
Does Abobe care about this issue at all or is it some really difficult intrinsic problem that keeps CS3 from working on this plattforms? As a developer it appears to be rather simple to get a couple filenames spelled correctly, but apparently this seems to be to much for a multi-million-dollar project, how sad is that?
Allow me a last comment .. as you (Adobe) obviously do not care too much about this issue, at least put it into the System Requirements in a prominent spot, so people like me would have a chance to find out ..
Best
T.

I'd say they care enough to add the warning. Used to be that the bad news was discovered a whole lot later and a whole lot more painfully.
Apple actually recommends against using such volumes (I believe) unless you have a really pressing need to do so.
Bear in mind that most of the source code for the products in question existed before support for these volumes came along.

  • Presentation variable is not supported in "SQL Issued"

    hi, there is a presentation variable called @{ps_var} from a prompt
    and I have written a custom sql and typed in "SQL Issued"
    !http://img31.imageshack.us/img31/8673/customsql.jpg!
    I found that the presentation variable is not supported in "SQL Issued" (exception flows when I clicked the "Set SQL" button.)
    (in the captured screen, it is hardcoded as 'REPLACED_BY_PRESENTATION_VARIABLE', no error occurs when I clicked the "Set SQL" button. the result is correct.
    however, when 'REPLACED_BY_PRESENTATION_VARIABLE' is replaced by @{ps_var}, exception flows when I clicked the "Set SQL" button.
    is there an alternatives to avoid the error ? or any ways to assign the selected value from the prompt to this sql ?
    thank you very much!

    Just set your presentation variable with an other method.

  • Moving copy of project laptop to iMac.  When I try to export my laptop project to either a thumbdrive or a SD card, the export fails and says 'file system of destination volume not supported'.  How to fix?

    When trying to move a project from Macbook Pro laptop to iMac, the program says, 'file system of the destination volume is not supported.'
    This is true for both a thumb drive and a SD card.  What is the fix? Thanks

    Format them OS X Extended. Aperture libraries have to be on OS X Extended formatted volumes.
    Use Disk Utility. Remember when you format a drive you erase all the data that is on it. So it there is anything you want on those copy it off first.

  • Window 7 is not supported (screen brightness issue)?

    I called Lenovo tech support to find out if they had a solution for the inability to dim the screen in Windows 7.  The suport person told me to load the latest drivers.  I did, then called back with my case number.  I told them that the suggestion didn't work (I knew it wouldn't). 
    The guy then asked me if I had received the Win 7 update from Lenovo, and I told him "No, I bought Windows 7 and installed that version".
    Eventually, when he realized he couldn't help me, he told me that they couldn't give me any more help because I had loaded "unsupported software".  Apparently, they consider Windows 7 (if not received from Lenovo) "Unsupported Software"!
    Solved!
    Go to Solution.

    Thank you!  That worked.  Someone please tell Lenovo tech support about this.

  • I cannot open PDFs. It says that it is not supported, but that I may be able to open the document natively?

    I disabled the Adobe Acrobat NPAPI plug in and it is finally opening up a download box. However, once I go to open the document a box called file conversion pops up and it asks me to select the encoding that makes your document readable. I picked Max OS (default) and the document opens with weird computer jargon. I'm not sure where to go from here.

    The Adobe Reader plugin may not be working properly on Mac.

    Disable the Adobe Reader plugin in Firefox (Tools > Add-ons > Plugins) and use the external Adobe Reader application or Preview application instead.

  • All of a sudden TACO by Abine was not supported any more on Firefox 28, so I updated to 29 and it worked again, now it says it is not supported on 29, why? fix?

    Please advise how I can make TACO by Abine work again. It was great, and worked when I installed 29, and now the next day I get the same message that it is not supported. That is silly, how can it be supported one day and not the next? Please help!!

    I think this is an add-on issue it self? On https://addons.mozilla.org/firefox/addon/targeted-advertising-cookie-op/ there is a mention from someone posted on February 25 2014 stating:
    "''It works when it manages to start. Ever since I updated to Firefox v26, it is a 50:50 chance that this plugin is enabled. Sometimes it starts, and sometimes it gets disabled saying it is not compatible with this version of Firefox. Same problem has carried forward to Firefox v27 also."''
    Also, the last version of this add-on is from May 8, 2013. So probably the add-on has issues and it is not Firefox 29.
    Maybe the developers have an answer? At the URL mentioned above there are some links to get in contact with Abine.

  • X-Fi ExtremeGamer, does not not support more than 32 channels in

    Hi
    I just wanted to share my discovery
    It seems that X-FI ExtremeGamer does not support more that 32 channels in World of Warcraft, when hardware acceleration is on. (32 cahnnels is one tick up).
    Any higher than that, and i will get no sound at all.
    My old card supported 28 cahnnels (Audigy 2).

    The problem isn't with ALchemy. It's with WoW. We're working with Blizzard on the problem, but it happens in Vista with ALchemy or in Windows XP. Here's the fix:
    . in the audio options, make sure the "Hardware Acceleration" box is checked
    2. move the "hardware voices" slider to one of the first 3 positions from the left and restart the game.
    my suggestion is to start at the third spot from the left and work back.
    Again, we're working with Blizzard on this issue. Thanks for posting about it and hopefully that slider will be working properly soon.

  • IPod Touch 4G "charging is not supported with this accessory"

    My iPod Touch 4g has been getting the message "charging is not supported with this accessory" ever since iOS 5, and I just recently updated to iOS 6.
    I currently use an Apple brand charging cord and a 3rd party charging cord, and none of them work.
    I've been looking around in forums and there have been several temporary fixes that haven't worked for me, such as:
    - closed all apps
    - purchased a new cord
    - did a hard reset
    - updated USB drivers
    - updated iPod Touch driver
    - updated iTunes( just covering all bases here)
    - plugged my iPod in several other computers
    - tried putting it in airplane mode, then turning the iPod off, and then plugging it into the computer
    - and cleaning out the dock with compressed air as well as the USB ports on my computer
    Does anyone with a permanent solution? Because this is starting to get very irritating...

    Not Charge
    - See:    
    iPod touch: Hardware troubleshooting
    iPhone and iPod touch: Charging the battery
    - Try another cable.
    - Try another charging source
    - Inspect the dock connector on the iPod for bent or missing contacts, foreign material, corroded contacts, broken, missing or cracked plastic.

  • SP1 to R2 Upgrade - The installed Version of SQL Server is not supported for the operational database

    Hello, 
    Am trying to upgrade a SCOM SP1 environment to SCOM R2( 3 MGT servers, 1 GW and 2 Web console boxes )
    The prerequisites are failing and it is stating the following ; 
    Operational Database SQL Version Check - The installed Version of SQL Server is not supported for the operational database
    Data Warehouse  SQL Version Check - The installed Version of SQL Server is not supported for the data warehouse
    The SQL servers are running SQL 2012 SP1 64 Enterprise, which is compatible.
    All other pre-upgrade tasks have been done. 
    Help appreciated! 

    I'm having the exact same issue, I believe. I think that Tubble has problem with SCOM 2012. Not 2007.
    I've checked the compatibility list for both SCOM 2012 SP1 and R2. All newer Windows Server and SQL versions are supported. We're running the SQL 2012 SP1 x64 Standard edition on a Windows Server 2012 Standard.
    I even tried to move the database from SQL 2012 to an older SQL 2008 R2, but that's not supported either. Only upgrading. Not downgrading.
    So, I started checking the opsMgrSetupWizard.log file for clues. And the error message was there as well. But the reason why it says not supported is that it can't get the info about the OS version, so I guess it assumes the OS version is to low. The RPC
    service can not be reached.

    So, in our case this was just a FW that was blocking some high ports between management server and SQL. I believe TCP port 135 also needs to be open.
    Let's hope this fixes your issue as well, Tubble.
    Have a great day!

  • IPhone error "Charging is not supported with this accessory"

    I keep getting error "Charging is not supported with this accessory" ever since the last update. I only get this message when iphone is locked and not plugged in to anything. When phone is locked the message keeps popping up every few seconds, consiquently I'm having to charge at least twice a day!
    Error only occurs when not plugged in & iphone locked & doesn't make any difference if wifi on or off
    Connectors have been cleaned
    iphone has been restored
    iphone has been re-booted
    Nothing seems to work and after researching, all similar posts seem to be pertaining to actually plugging in to something and the fix was "clean connector" this is not my problem, error only happens if not plugged in. I'm assuming it's a bug from the last update but my girlfriends iphone is fine.
    Would someone please help as the drain on my phone is rediculous now, it wasn't that good to start with but now the phone is pretty useless unless I'm near a plug! It's also very annoying having the screen constantly coming to life with this error message, especially at night.
    Thanks in advance for any help.
    Wayne.

    I've not been able to find any new solutions so I thought I would try repeating everything I've tried again. I started by re-cleaning the connector as, logically my error only occurs when not plugged in to anything. To my amazement the problem is now resolved, I did take quite a while cleaning this time using toothpicks, cotton buds and nail varnish remover. So I geuss I should have cleaned it better in the first place! Doh! Anyway it's FIXED!!
