Permission to load an extension using the Adobe Extension Manager

Win 7, CS4, Admisistrator
I am trying to load an extension that shipped on a DVD included in Photoshop CS4 Channels & Masks (Channels & Masks.xmp) by Deke McClelland. The Extension Manager will open and the license agreement pops up. When I agree I get a message that I do not have permission to do that and to cnotact the administrator. I am the administrator. Does anyone know what I need to do to get this to work? Thank you.

You may be the administrator but your programs aren't running with administrator privileges as long as UAC is enabled. You'll have to Right Click on the Extension Manager shortcut/exe and select Run as Administrator

Invalid signature when trying to install Photoshop CC extension using the Adobe Extension Manager CC and default installed Photoshop CC extensions won't load

I have a Creative Cloud subscription for Photoshop CC. All Creative Clouds products are updated to the latest versions. When I tried to install Tony Kuyper's TKActionv3 Photoshop extension using the Adobe Extension Manager CC on my PC desktop, I received an error message that the extension contained an invalid signature and wouldn't be installed. I had previously installed the extension on my laptop without any problems. At the same time, I also noticed the default installed Photoshop CC extensions (e.g., Adobe Exchange, Kuler, Mini Bridge, Behance) could not be loaded using the Windows/Extension command. I receive an error message that the command could not be completed because the extension could not be loaded. After contacting Tony Kuyper, he suggested that I try the steps mentioned in the following weblink: https://forums.adobe.com/message/6029768. The steps basically consist of uninstalling and reinstalling all the Creative Cloud apps associated with Photoshop CC. I tried the steps multiple times, but I am still having the same problems. I can find the default installed Photoshop CC extensions on my machine, so I don't know why they can't be loaded.
Thanks for your assistance,
Mark Curtis

Hi Mark
You say everything is up to date? And you have tried reinstalling all the CC apps? Is Windows also fully up to date? Hmmm... That could be tricky.
What version of Windows are you using? Have a look in Task Manager > Processes and see if 'CEPServiceManager.exe *32' is listed as running?
If not, I don't know where it would be installed from, and we'd need someone like Chris Cox to join the thread to tell us, but my guess is that it would install along with the CC Desktop Application Manager. Windows 8.1 can be problematic, and a bit fussy about the order of things, and it is definitely worth adopting best practice when installing your CC apps. That means restarting your computer, and right clicking the Desktop Application manager and running as Administrator.
How many CC apps are you running? If just Photoshop, Bridge, Expansion manager etc. then - and I hate to say this - perhaps have another go at reinstalling, but run the Cleaning tool after uninstalling.
Use the CC Cleaner Tool to solve installation problems | CC, CS3-CS6
Try some other Extensions before the Tony Kuyper's TKActionv3. GuideGuide is a favourite of mine, as well as Dmonzon tools, and maybe Russell Brown's Flypaper Textures.
I have to say that I have had problems with the CC Extension Manager a while back, but simply reinstalling just the Extension Manager fixed it. Perhaps CEPServiceManager.exe *32 installs with Extension Manager? Heck, maybe start with just trying that before reinstalling all your CC apps.
If you are still stuck, I'd risk sending Chris Cox a PM, but not until you triple check that your video card driver is up to date from the card maker's website.
Good luck, and be sure to let us know how you get on.

How do you download InDesign using the Adobe Download Manager?

How do you download InDesign using the Adobe Download Manager?

With the Adobe Download Assistant installed you should be able to initiate the download at http://www.adobe.com/cfusion/tdrc/index.cfm?product=indesign. If this is not working for you then please try an alternate web browser.

How do you link to or use the Adobe CDN after you publish your project?

So maybe I am stupid but I really can't find any useful info on how this CDN publishing actually works...
This is from the edge animate API adobe white papers (also right below it in the section about HTML pages I think they are missing the word header in the first sentence... kinda funny - Adobe Edge Animate CC JavaScript API)
CDN Hosting
Using the Adobe Content Distribution Network (CDN) is a great way to speed up Animate composition delivery. Compositions using the Adobe CDN all share a single URL for jQuery and the Edge Runtime. The browser caches the runtime, so the user only downloads the library once no matter how may Animate compositions they view, even if compositions are on different sites and produced by different authors. Don't use the CDN if your composition needs to run without an Internet connection or if you want to use your own hosting exclusively.
The Animate Runtime CDN uses the following URL:
<script type="text/javascript" charset="utf-8" src="http://animate.adobe.com/runtime/4.0.0/edge.4.0.0.min.js"></script>
I mean this all sounds great! So how do I use it? I don't see an obvious place in this URL to replace with what would be the link to my project? I also did not get any unique identification numbers that I could put into a URL to pull the correct content. Shouldn't I be having some unique identifier? How dose it know which project is mine? Maybe I just really don't understand how this works...
My goal is to have this nice little animation I made in edge play when someone visits the website and then fade into the homepage. Is this possible? It would be great if I could just put some script links in the header and let the adobe CDN take care of all the delivery aspects and keep my server load down rather than uploading the files myself and having to use extra bandwidth.
Thanks so much!

Huh? What are you talking about?
Yes where do I get my unique script files to link to adobe CDN... But Adobe CDN dose not work that way... It just host common files... So when you check that box it automatically writes that script in your files that you need to host on your server... That last part was not clear to me that it was only certain files... Why not all the files right?
But no instead of adding the conversation about how that feature might be cool or if you would want it too... You have some troll remark with a smug smiley face about well originally "
To be fair, you did inquire about inserting it externally.
" In what way? You took that part out of context... The rest says "and let the adobe CDN take care of all the delivery aspects and keep my server load down rather than uploading the files myself and having to use extra bandwidth."
This obviously refers to me putting a link in the head of my website that links to the adobe CDN for my entire animation and not uploading any files to my server... Get a life heathrowe and stop trolling the forums...
However if you want to grow up and would like this feature too please give it a thumbs up when I post in the feature request... I think this would be great added functionality... It would give animators the ability to build complex animations and then just give a link to the site owner to have the animation play on the site... Animators could potentially then rent or lease animations to site owners and if site owners don't pay we could just change the link bring control back to us... I think this could be huge... But maybe I am wrong...

Load multiple files using the same data load location

has anybody tried loading multiple files using the same load locations. I need to do this as the data in these multiple files will need to be exported from FDM as a single export file. the problem i am facing is more user related. since these files will be received at different points of time, users will need a way to tell them what has been loaded and what is yet to be loaded.
is it possible to throw a window on the web broser with OK and Cancel buttons from an event script?
any pointers to possible solutions will be helpful

was able to resolve this. the implementation method is as follows
take a back up of previously imported data in the befcleardata event script. then in the beffileimport event append the data to the import file. there are many other intricacies but this is the broad implementation logic. it allowed my users to load multiple files without worrying about append or replace import type choices

How can I publish an App to a selceted group of people without using the Adobe Contetn Viewer?

How can I publish an App to a selected group of people ( not via App Store) without using the Adobe Content Viewer?
The App was developed with InDesign 6.0

You'd have to sign up for an Apple Developer account and then gather all the UDID's (Apple limits this to only 100 devices) that you want your app to be installed on. Create your mobile provisioning profiles to include these ID's and then you could use TestFlight to push out your app and monitor who has installed it. Of course Testflight is intended for monitoring your apps performance but I'm sure you can get away with it if you use it to push you app. One thing to keep in mind is the mobile provisoning profiles are only valid for 1 year. Hope this helps.

Could not complete the command because of a problem using the Adobe Color Engine

Hi all
This bizarrely started this morning - completely out of the blue - and I've no idea why.
Setup: Mac 10.8.2 / Creative Suite Premium PhotoShop CS5 extended (patched to 12.04)
Am working on images exported from LightRoom 4 (16bit A3 Pro Photo RGB PSDs) in PhotoShop CS5.
As part of my image grading process I have a PhotoShop Action that does the following: copy layer to new document (document respects all of copied layer settings) > Image > Adjustments > HDR toning > apply a certain HDR preset > copy to resultant image back to original doc > set opacity as 40%.
Totally out of the blue, after having this action for about 2 months, this morning I start getting a warning dialog of "Could not complete the command because of a problem using the Adobe Color Engine" and the action fails. The failure seems to take place at the 'make document' part of the action and seems to somehow be related to the contents of the clipboard.
I've tried trashing and re-creating the action. It works first time out fine and then - on the next image - errors again.
At present I can only safely carry out the work 'manually' by completing all the actions myself.
I can think of no settings that have changed and the OS hasn't been updated in a while.
I have found one other thread on a similar problem in PhotoShop Elements, but no definitive solution.
Any help appreciated as I have a shedload of stuff to process.
Best wishes
TP

OK: trash of prefs didn't work. Tried thrice. Re-created orig action. same problem.
BUT!
Your 'Image > Duplicate' suggestion does seem to work. If I use that in a new action as the method for creating the HDR version doc (instead of 'Select > Copy > New > Paste), it seems to work.
Will try that out this afternoon, but for now: WIN!
Many thanks for the suggestion!

How to Create a PDF Document and apply Digital Signature in C# using the Adobe SDK?

Hi Everybody!
I have to do two distinct tasks here:
1) How can I create a PDF document using the Adobe SDK in my .NET Applications(C# - 2.0)?
I just need a basic sample to create a document with a simple text, for example. I did not find any useful information in the adobe documentation. I have the Acrobat Professional 8.0 in my computer, but it's very dificult to work whith de Acrobat.dll and .NET with a poor documentaion.
2)How can I apply digital signature in a existent pdf document?
I need to sign documents using the SDK, just a basic sample in c# would be helpful to start!
Anybody could help?
Thank in advance!

Leonard Rosenthol or anybody that can help, sorry to insist.
I will explain better my problem:
I have an ASP.NET WebPAge (C# - 2.0). In this page, the user make a request. The request should generate a PDF document with the informations of the request and with a field to add a digital signature. The document created will be send to a approver that will confirm the approval applying his digital signature (I need to do too, a webpage where the approver open the page, choose the pdf document, and sign, just selecting his own certificate and clicking in the button SIGN... but this is another problem).
That's the reason that I have to create a PDF document. If I create a WORD or HTML document, and then convert to PDF, how can I add a field to digital signature in this pdf document?
Is there any solution using Acrobat SDK?
Thank you very much!

Will we still be able to use the Adobe FormsCentral desktop app after FormsCentral retires?

Is it just the online service that is expiring?
Will I be able to create fillable PDF's using the desktop app (not online) to create fillable PDF's?
Thanks!

Hi LeanneW,
Please see this section from the End of support | Adobe FormsCentral document:
You may continue to use the Adobe FormsCentral desktop app for creating PDF forms until you update or upgrade your Acrobat software. But the app will not connect to any online component or offer the ability to collect data or publish web forms. Furthermore, we will not be supporting the application once Adobe FormsCentral is retired in July, and so cannot ensure functionality moving forward.
If you have additional questions, please let us know.
Best,

The Flash Player is not running but it is there and it is enabled and Active X is not checked. The Player version is 16.0.0.305. I have the latest ie11 and the latest W8.1. I have used the Adobe tool to delete the Flash and subsequently I have updated or reloaded Flash using your updater. I have gone into IE options and insured that the settings are supportive of Flash. The Adobe mini Flash test program on your site says it not enabled or Active X is enabled - not true - all is set as it should be. I have gone through your forums but to no avail. I've looked in MS forums but nothing that made any difference. What's going on and what can I do about it?

Try using Firefox. Flash usually works on Firefox when it won't on Safari. I noticed that the Safari does not show the same version as Firefox does. Iwonder if that could be the problem. Safari on the left shows 10.1, Firefox show 10.3

I can not print an PDF using the Adobe PDF-Printer with Acrobat DC

Hi all,
i installed the Trial of Acrobat DC but it dont let me use the Adobe PDF-Printer well, because i cannot print from any third-party-application using Adobe PDF.
I tryed to print from within Word, Editor and Browser and selected the Adobe PDF-Printer as target, but at 75% both, the Application from which i print and the PDF-Creating-Wizzard are freezing (for hours) and i need to kill the procesed. No PDF-File is created. Same Problem with trying to print a Testfile from within the Windows-Printer-Dialogs.
Only Adobe DC cause this issue, if i use freeware like Bullzip PDF the files get created successfully, so i assume its not a generally problem with PDF on my system.
What could be the problem? (pls dont say its because of the trial, a trail should allow to test all features and Why should i buy a programm if it cannot do what a freeware can do?)

Hey Daniel,
Have you tried repair Adobe Acrobat DC?
If no, then please repair the installation under Help menu.
This could also happen due to an Adobe Acrobat DC installation file corruption. To resolve this issue :-
Uninstall Adobe Acrobat DC using the Acrobat cleaner utility.
Restart your computer.
Re-install Acrobat Acrobat DC Download Adobe Acrobat free trial | Acrobat Pro DC.
Let me know if the issue persist.
Regards,
Aadesh
