So Adobe has gone fully "only subscriptions?"

So has Adobe gone full subscriptions and you wont be able to buy Photoshop or Illustrator fully?

Yes, Cloud only for all new versions. Announced in May 2013.
and you wont be able to buy Photoshop or Illustrator fully?
Adobe still sells CS6 (the version before CC) online for those who still want a perpetually licensed version (pay once, keep forever).
Don't expect that to last very long. I personally expect it to be discontinued (silently vanish) sometime in 2014 but that's pure speculation on my part. Don't quote me on that.

There will be no CS7.

Why is it Adobe has gone bad ?

After weeks of mucking around - it looks as if I am after over 14 years of supporting Adobe .... leaving Photoshop and Adobe ....
:O(
They say they support us -- promise to call you back and fix your problems .... then leave you for weeks doing nothing!
You call them back ... whats going on you ask .... you explain the issues again ...... they attempt to fix them ...... nope no luck.
We will call you back tomorrow to fix it for you. .......
Again ... no calls at all - you wait for days .... a week no calls ......
Yep this Cloud stuff works well guys - thanks for the frustration - you ask again via email for help ..... third - fourth time ... again do we have to try to get you to help ..... or at least do what you say you will ... call back ?
If you cant fix it .... if you cant even call us back when you say you will ..... why should we believe anything you say?
I know many users are ok with what you have done and many are using your cloud with limited or no issues.
But the measure of a person / company is not what you can do when things are great - but how you support those with issues ... and in this case you have failed.

Thanks Jeff - you are right this is a support forum ... but guess what - this is when people pay attention ... not when it's behind closed doors - then it's easier to just ignore.
In any case what you say is certainly correct - support forums =.
We finally got to moving over to the Cloud base of Photoshop. ( CC PS )
Installed cloud - installed CC PS - all good so far - then open Photoshop - it closed immediately.
Was Cloud open - Yes
Tried rebooting - just in case.
Opened PS - splash screen - menus all going - it closed again.
Ok Check the net - yep its a known issue.
Close Cloud - open PS - Now it tells me I have a trial version.
Open up a chat version of help with Adobe - after a while - and several attempts to fix I get told that I would be contacted the next day as it was beyond their area of help.
1 day - no call - 2,3,4 ...... ok I get it I'm not getting a call.
I call them.
Someone will help tomorrow.
Nope !
So I call back - now the guy on the phone was nice - he really did try to help - about half an hour to an hour later - no good he had to escalate it up the chain - I did tell him I had tried everything he did.
So .... we will call you back tomorrow with a new Tech. .... yeah you guessed it .... no call 3 days later.
Really - c'mon!
In any case this is the issue - it wont start and stay active for me to use.
We did finally get past the part where it thought it was a trial version ....... now it just wont start .......
So yeah Jeff I am pretty pissed off and have had a rant.
Still not fixed.
CS 5 Suite works fine - and so does the Downloaded version of Lightroom.
OS - Windows 7 Ultimate
32MB ram
Photoshop Opens and closes immediately.
"You have cross-posted the exact same message in multiple forums...what you are doing won't actually help you...you know that right?"
Was actually hoping someone else has gone down the road and found Adobe more helpful ......
I do appreciate your point of view.

I have just updated to iTunes 11. Now ALL my downloaded music has gone, and only plays when I'm connected to the internet.

NOT HAPPY. I've Just upgraded to iTunes 11 on a MBP 15" 2009 model, OS 10.8.2 I use my computer all over the place with NO internet and cannot access the HUNDREDS of tracks I've purchased and downloaded and been playing for years. How can I access them WITHOUT having to download the all again, using up my internet for HOURS and gobbling up my BANDWIDTH again! Also, I am NOT INTERESTED in streaming my music, as most places I use my computer, I have very limited, or no internet. Not Happy!!!
PLEASE someone give me an easy low-cost answer to getting access to my music again.
Alternatively, is there a way to go back to the previous iTunes?
Steve

Is the music actualy gone from your hard drive ?
If it is still there then under Preferences, Advanced Preferences is the iTunes Media folder location pointed in the right place? If not click on Change and repoint it to your files.
To Stop seeing all the icloud streaming versions again in Preferences, Store and uncheck the Show iTunes in the cloud purchases.
Hope this helps

How do I downgrade my subscription from Adobe CC to Photoshop only?

I signed up for a yearly subscription around October 2013 for CC. But I've only learnt to use Photoshop and I never use the other programmes. I'm currently not working so I cannot afford the $49.99 a month subscription. I would like to downgrade my subscription/membership to Photoshop only, as $9.99 a month is within my budget. I have tried the Chat facility a few times, but I have never been successful in getting anyone online to talk to. The last time I tried, I was waiting online for over an hour and just kept getting the "thank you for your patience" message.
Please let me know if it's possible to downgrade to Photoshop only, and if so, how to go about it. Thank you!
AlyZen

Hi again Rajshree,
I'm still not able to purchase Photography CC on Adobe.com. I tried logging out and purchasing as a new user, but it asked me to set up a user name and password, and I would like to use my existing one. The minute I log in, it defaults again to the message " You're already subscribed to the Creative Cloud membership (one-year), A$49.99/month plus applicable tax. See your plan details. Want to take advantage of our promo for this product? Please contact Customer Support to see if you qualify".
Can I give you permission to override this and make the purchase of Photography CC on my behalf, and cancel my CC membership? If not, please advise how I can change my subscription, as I can't find a way to get around my existing subscription. If I cancelled it, I'd get charged 50% of the remainder of my yearly subscription, and you've already said there won't be any penalty. Thanks!

I did a trial using one email, then purchased a subscription using a different email. Every time I try to open a downloaded app it tells me that my trial has expired and only offers me the option to purchase it. Any ideas how I can access the subscription

I did a trial using one email, then purchased a subscription using a different email. Every time I try to open a downloaded app it tells me that my trial has expired and only offers me the option to purchase it. Any ideas how I can access the subscription I just paid for?

Sign out from Creative Cloud desktop application and Sign in with email ID using which you had purchased subscription .

Then launch CC apps and try to activate.
Still face issue , let me know

If you need assistance with finding any of your restores or attempting to restore from any that happened prior to his incident follow this article
http://support.apple.com/kb/ht1766
IF you do find a backup that has your contacts; I'd /highly/ recommand turning off your wifi network after the restore is finished because if the issue is with your iCloud your contacts may merge back with her's.
With iCloud you DO NOT want to share the account; bad things happen Evil evil thigns...
But in all seriousness; if two devices have the same iCloud; iCloud is told to merge and sync infomation between hte two and can't tell that it doesn't belong to the same person

Hi AndrewHISC
We would need to cancel one of the subscriptions and then you could sign up again using another ID.
Let me know if you wish to proceed with this.
Kind regards

Same thing is happening to me. Adobe has not responded to anyone about this error. It appears that Abobe XI is not compatible with IE 11. I do not get this error when I use Chrome or Firefox. Only IE 11 does this. I have tried clearing cache and cookies.

Only IE 11 does this. I have tried clearing cache and cookies. I even uninstalled and re-installed IE 11. It is still doing it. I am surprized that a company like Adobe would just ignore our posts and leave us hanging this this.
Error message is FAILED TO GET DISPATCH FROM IBRWSR2. Then when you click on it the next error message says: PHTML IS NULL. You have to click this error message twice and then the PDF finally loads. Happened every time
Does anyone have a solution since Adobe will not respond?
As a last resort I will try uninstalling the Adobe Reader XI and install Adobe Reader 10 instead. It seems to work ok. But when I try to install version 10 the Adobe site tries to install XI. Any ideas?

The only way to get it back is a hard reset or let the battery die and then plug in the charger. The brightness is up and the power stays on while screen is black.
This is the second macbook pro i have owned in the past two weeks. I am ready to return it for good if this is a chronic issue. Please help if you have had this same issue.

Try a SMC reset:

My iPad screen has gone black. I have tried resetting it with the sleep and home buttons and it only flashes the apple on the screen for a nano second and then it goes black again. I can even hear notifications arriving, but I cannot see anything...

My iPad screen has gone black. I have tried resetting it with the sleep and home buttons and it only flashes the apple on the screen for a nano second and then it goes black again. I can even hear notifications arriving, but I cannot see anything...I'd rather not reset it to the factory settings as I have a lot of things I worry about using. Either way seems to me that the system itself is working since I can hear it working, but its the screen that isn't. It has not been dropped and has been in a case for years! Please help!

When the power is on and I press the home button, I can slide my finger where the slider bar "would be" and it makes the noise as if its "opening" flashes a blue screen then returns black...

Ch has gone dead apple store says its had its life at only just over a year old can thuis b right anybody out there had the same problem.

My ipod touch has gone dead, it is only 1 and half old, apple shop says it is just old and cant b repaired,surely it should last longer than this, anyone out there experienced same. really angry as I have just bought one for my grandson for this Xmas.

Like all products, especially electrical ones, some have short lifes. Apple does not fix your broken iPod. They will exchange it for a refurbished one it for $99, $149 or $199 depending upon the capacity.

That's about what it's supposed to look.
How do You want it to look ?
a. You can change places by using this
b. May be You changed this top right symbol of an hard disk ?
c. or changed the number of frames to be viewed ?
d. OR - it can (at least for me) be so that You think of how it looks in iPhoto. (To me a very common mistake)
