Pros & Cons of CS5.5 vs CS5 for DPS???

Hi,
I believe this is my 1st pover EVER on the ADOBE forums, despite using it for years as a source of invaluable knoweldge. My thanks to all of the contributors, past and present.
I'm assuming CS5.5 offers advantages over CS5 in the DPS workflow, but I cannot find any documentation specifiying them. Could someone point me in the right direction or post a reply listing the advantages (and disadvantages if any) of C5.5 over CS5? The powers that be here at work need facts to justify the upgrade.
Thanks in advance!

Besides audio icons sizing properly on screen I can’t think of anything all that earth shaking.
That said, if you buy the upgrade to CS5.5 now, you’ll get CS6 for free when it ships.

Using Business area for External Reporting-Pros & Cons?

Dear Freinds,
We are a Retail Business Group half way through SAP IS Retail implementation. We have 8 legal entities, currently their complete Annual Financials are being made & audited separately. In SAP the structure is that there is Single Co. Code & transactions will be seggregated by Business Area (made manadatory for data entry) and Annual Accounts will be drawn up using Business Area.
This to me does not seem to be the right structure. I have joined the group recently, I will be much thankful to you all if you please help me list the Pros & Cons of using Business Area for external reporting.

Dan: For management reporting you may not want to post eliminations between companies where the business areas are the same.
If the Business wants to see the eliminations between companies, within the same business area, as part of BEx reports, what should I do? They do not want to execute consolidation functions in UCMON but just want to see how the eliminations have taken place between companies with in the same business area.
Dan: As long as the partner company and partner business area are consistently included for the intercompany transactions, the eliminations between Legal and Management will agree at the top-level of each hierarchy.
Have I to introduce one more InfoObject Partner Business Area in the data basis and assign the role Sub-assignment once again?
Thanks in advance.

My machine has 16gb of memory and a Intel 7 processor. When I run Premiere Pro CS5, it works for awhile
and then locks up for anywhere from a few seconds to over a minute. Can anyone dignose this problem?
Could it be where Premiere is installed in relation to where my files are stored?
Any help with this vexing problem would be appreciated.

I edit AVCHD with the computer described in http://forums.adobe.com/thread/652694 and have no problems
My 3 hard drives for video editing are configured as...
1 - 320Gig Boot for Win7 64bit Pro and ALL program installs
2 - 320Gig data for Win7 paging swap file and video project files
When I create a project on #2 drive, the various work files follow,
so my boot drive is not used for the media cache folders and files
3 - 1Terabyte data for all video files... input source & output export files
How many hard drives do you have, and where is everything located?

Is it possible to install CS5 or CS5.5 on a 2.4 GHz Intel Core 2 Duo 4 GB 667 Mhz DDR2 SDRAM MacBook Pro running 10.6 (Snow Leopard)?

Hi Carolyn, thanks for your quick reply. First thing I did before posting my question was to check the system requirements for Creative Suite, both on Apple and Adobe's websites. But I am however confused about the difference between "Multicore Intel processor" vs "Core 2 Duo", and keep hearing stories about CS5 not working properly.

Digital Classroom Lesson Conversion Problem from Premiere Pro CS5 to CS5.5?

I have the book Premiere Pro CS5 and CS5.5 Digital Classroom. The project lessons on the dvd do not convert for use with my Premiere Pro CS5.5 program. Has anyone had this issue and found a resolve?
Thanks
jim

I did copy the lessons to drive and tried to open project then this comes up:
This project was saved from a previous version of Adobe Premiere Pro and must be converted. The original project file will not be modified. Continue?
It gives you a file to convert.... but it does not convert. That is there is a project in form but no videos or images.
Importing the project will skip the question above but end result the same.

Pros & Cons of Using SAP PI Interfaces for Report Generation

Hi Guru's
I have a Scenario's like
I have to generate a customized report in SAP with the main data's available in SAP ECC and some required data available in the Legacy System.
I want to know the Pros & cons of using SAP PI RFC/Proxy adapter interface to get the data from the legacy system for each time the user execute the report in SAP ECC.
Thanks in Advance

There are couple of "dimensions" to consider in your PI interface design. For exemple when you are running the sizing exercise (Since we are considering adding a net new interface), you will need to capture specific information about new interface.i.e. S/A, adapters, frequency, avg payload size. etc..Note that the last two attributes will be hard to size properly in this case since you can't predict how frequent the end user will run the report which will impact the latency time required to pull the data. Latency will affect the user experience as visible side affect and definitely the SLA for other interfaces running at the same time.
On the other hand, the data you are trying to retrieve from the legacy won't be used for transactional purpose but for the end user to pull KPIs from the system which can affect ECC as well. You may end up doing lot hot fixes for your report (Assuming that the report is a medium complexity code)
There are other factors to consider but let's consider these are the major one.
Cheers,

How can I use a file in flash cs6 that I made in flash cs5.5 air for android

I have made an app in in air for android in flash cs5.5 air for android, and I want to edit it in cs6 and play it in cs6.
But if I put Ctrl+Enter I got an error: createWin process failed with error 2: system couldn't find the file. I think the problem is that I'am using air for android 2.6 version in flash cs5.5 and version 3.2 in flash cs6. I have searched the web and found out that you can add older air versions using the sdk manager and I have tried it but first I get the error that the version of the sdk I am trying to install is not valid and after some files that I added to the sdk folder I get this error:Only SDK higher than version 3.4.2540 may be added.
I there a possible way to update the air for android for an fla or apk? Or how can I let my originally file work fine in flash cs6??

system couldn't find the file
If you can´t get a more specific hint why your project can´t compile then I can think of some reasons theis error might occur
1.You had files included besides the swf, like videos, audio files, xml files, that are not present in the place air expects them to be
2.somewhere in your createWin functions there is a class import needed that isn`t present in 3.2 anymore, for example some classes or functions from classes that were valid in 2.6 are not any more in 3.2
3. to achieve better eror logging, allow for debugging in the publishing options and see what specific lines in your code throw the error
4.any air app needs a cert file, this needs to be created once, if you migrated to e new system it might be you never created that file which air expects to even begin the compiling process
once you isolate the problem, report back

You are right, Adobe does not support CS5 because it is no longer sold.
Simply download the trial version of CS5 from this Adobe web site and input your serial number.

Programatically determine installation location for InDesign CS3, CS4, CS5, AND CS5.5 (Windows)

We build plug-ins for all versions of InDesign from CS3 and later, for Windows and Mac.
To deploy our plug-in(s) on Windows, we use InstallShield, which has a somewhat complicated mechanism to locate InDesign.exe and determine its version so we know which plug-in(s) to install, but basically, the location is determined (via the RegLocator table in InstallShield) based on this registry setting:
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\App Paths\InDesign.exe
This has been working fine for all versions of InDesign since CS2. However, that location is apparently no longer set by the InDesign CS5.5 installer. So, we need to find some other way of programatically locating InDesign CS5.5 with our installer.
I've searched the registry of a machine with InDesign CS5.5 installed, and there are other registry entries related to InDesign, but those entries are not set by earlier versions of the InDesign installer. Ideally, there would be a registry setting, or some other reliable marker we can use to locate the InDesign installation, which is consistent across all versions of InDesign (at least back to CS3).
Using the registry setting is something we came up with on our own via trial-and-error, since, as far as I know, there is no documented way to locate the InDesign installation folder. (Our Mac installer uses a simpler mechanism to locate InDesign by the application name and version number.)
I find the apparent lack of documentation on this a bit ironic, since just about every other aspect of the SDK and the methods for creating InDesign plug-ins is extremely well documented, expect for the last final bit one needs to know to get to the promised land of actually deploying a carefully crafted plug-in to customers' machines. (This seems to be true of the Acrobat SDK as well.) However, I could have just missed the relevant documentation, in which case, please point me to it.
So, is there a recommended way to programatically locate the InDesign installation location on Windows? How are other people doing this in their installers?

Hi Dan,
this is the InDesign plugins SDK forum, you need the installer forum....
Just kidding. I use a really hacky piece of VB to install my plugins while I'm developing...
here's the bit which works out the folder depending on which version I'm compiling for.
That gives you the gist anyway, and I imagine that most installers are going to do more or less the same thing, except they'll have short cuts ways of getting it.
There's probably a better way, but this works for me...

Do you already have a license, or are you trying to upgrade, or find a new full license?
CS5 is no longer distributed, but there are ways to get the trial version which can be activated with your exisiting serial number. Other than that you're looking at purchasing through a non-authorized supply chain and you may or may not get something you can use.

Pros & Cons for consuming web services in ABAP using ABAP PROXY

Hi,
Other then performence is there any other disadvantages like security,etc for consuming web services in ABAP using ABAP proxy?
I really appreciate if some one provide the more details(Pros & Cons ) regarding cosuming web services and I also want to know is there any other way to consume web services in ABAP.
Thanks.

 is there any other way to consume web services in ABAP
you can use cl_http_client class to make your program to act as http client and post the soap message too webservice. This way you dont need to generate proxy, but you should know the soap message format.

RAID 5 Question - separate volume for OS/Apps: pros/cons

What are the pros & cons of having 2 volumes on a Mac Pro RAID 5 (instead of one big volume):
Vol 1: OS & Applications
Vol 2: Home Folders (basically everything else)
1) Is this a good idea/bad idea?
2) For what purposes would this setup be best used for?
3) At what point during the RAID 5 setup do you create multiple volumes and how is it done?
4) How/when do you set up the home directories to be on a separate volume from the OS/Apps volume and does the user have to do anything special during daily use to ensure they aren't saving/modifying anything on the OS/Apps volume?
5) I have four 250GB Barracudas sitting around and was wondering if they will work in a RAID 5 in my Mac Pro. I haven't heard of anyone using HDDs this small in a RAID 5 and Apple's website only talks about 500GB, 750GB, and 1TB in bays 2-4. Does anyone have this setup or know if it will work?

What are the pros & cons of having 2 volumes on a Mac Pro RAID 5 (instead of one big volume):
Vol 1: OS & Applications
Vol 2: Home Folders (basically everything else)
1) Is this a good idea/bad idea?
Bad. Using a separate drive (especially 10,000 rpm) for OS & Applications can be useful, but two volumes on the same drive (RAID behaves as one drive) means the heads have to continual move large distances, since home folders and system files are used a lot at the same time.
2) For what purposes would this setup be best used for?
If you often do things that destroy your system volume, you can quickly restore it from a backup copy, without having to worry if your user backup are completely up to date, but a separate system disk would still be better.
3) At what point during the RAID 5 setup do you create multiple volumes and how is it done?
After you create the RAID-5 with RAID Utility, create a volume and set its size to less than the default full size. You can then create more volumes. See page 8 of the RAID Userr Guide
<http://manuals.info.apple.com/en/RAIDUtility_UserGuide.pdf>
4) How/when do you set up the home directories to be on a separate volume from the OS/Apps volume and does the user have to do anything special during daily use to ensure they aren't saving/modifying anything on the OS/Apps volume?
For Tiger, use NetInfo Manager (Utilities folder). For Leopard, Right (or Control) click the user in "Accounts" system preference. Once set, the user doesn't have to do anything special.
5) I have four 250GB Barracudas sitting around and was wondering if they will work in a RAID 5 in my Mac Pro. I haven't heard of anyone using HDDs this small in a RAID 5 and Apple's website only talks about 500GB, 750GB, and 1TB in bays 2-4. Does anyone have this setup or know if it will work?
They should work. Apple only talks about drive sizes there were selling at the time the particular system was sold. If you have problems, though, Apple may blame the drives, and not provide much help.
