Support policy of Adobe
Dear all,
I purchased Illustrator CS5 last December. Unfortunately I discovered it crashes on startup.
I opened a support ticket, but the answer which was given too me was too broad to help me track the cause of the issue. Since then, I got no answer to my ticket.
I decided to get some help and posted in Illustrator forum a thread titled "Illustrator crashes on startup and little help from Adobe support team".
After exchanges with other users, I discovered I was not the only one and posted about the limited help I could find to fix this issue.
I learned that this night 25.01.2011, this post was simply deleted by admin, based on their policy. I took the time to read it and think my post followed policy, in particular it was really following this one:
"Don't be afraid to identify errors or shortcomings in Adobe content. Your feedback is important! "
Interested to get comments for Adobe on this and sincerely hoping this post will not be removed,
Sincerely,
Fred Jordan.
I am not certain why it was removed and to some degree i recall a couple of postings about crashing on start up.
Is the problem still there?
Since you were unsatisfied all around did you return the software within the thirty days?
Did you try to reinstall.
Did you tell us about your system and hardware and the tye of the other applications you have on your computer.
Did you trash your preferences, repair your permissions, log into a new user account?
Anyway are you needing help to get Illustrator to launch or do you just want the thread to be posted again.
Believe it or not your purpose is very vague. Can you give us a clue as to what your goal is exactly?

Hi, I have problem with importing MOV files from SJCAM 4000. MOV files are in supported formats for Adobe Premiere Elements 11. But if I'm importing MOV file, only audio part is imported, video part is not imported. How can I solve this problem?
haben
From looking at the specifications of your camera (SJCam 4000), we know already what video compression your camera is using. It is H.264.
A H.264.mov file should be supported by Premiere Elements 11. On what computer operating system is your Premiere Elements 11 running?
Do you have the latest version of QuickTime installed on your computer? And, are you running QuickTime and Premiere Elements 11 from a
User Account with administrative privileges? Please go to Premiere Elements 11 Publish+Share/Computer/QuickTime to confirm that you find
presets there for the QuickTime choice there.
What are the properties of these H.264.mov files - is it 1080p30 (1920 x 1080p30) or something else? Do you know if this camera is recording with a variable or
a constant frame rate?
Please review and consider and then we will decide what next.
Thank you.

Hello, I have MacBook Pro with Retina display. How can I get retina support to my Adobe Acrobat pro? It is version 10.1.13 and it says it is up to date.
Problem is that my pdf files look terrible although I have MacBook Pro (Retina, 15-inch, Mid 2014). I have Adobe Creative Suite Design Standard version 6.0 (Mac). I have installed every possible update. I think problem is that for some reason my CS doesn´t support retina display? If I view a pdf file in iMessage, it looks fantastic. But if I open the same document in Adode Acrobat Pro, it looks awful. What can I do?
Thank you so much for your help.

Adobe no support policy?
i have had no success with adobe products and after purchasing the Dreamweaver i thought that adobe might support well think again they are once again not there for the customer Dreamweaver CC is that just an ugly way to get you to buy adobe cloud while not offering anything in the cloud to use for a typical customer ... i am unhappy... i cannot download or use Dreamweaver or Fireworks but now adobe shows my S/N's ... come on adobe support me already why the heck are you keeping back the best software updates??

This is a statement, not a question. Not happy getting pushed into the forums for support after 90 days instead of chat or phone. I'm sure there's a lot of great info here, but this is not the level of support I think should be provided. My Acrobat XI has had a lot of stability issues since purchase several months ago. I've had to reinstall probably 7-8 times. None of the tech support answers have been able to provide a permanent solution. Reinstalling a program like this every couple of weeks is a productivity buzzkill.
Hi ,
First of all we are extremely sorry to hear that you were experiencing issues with Acrobat .
We would surely help you out with this .
It would be great if you could explain about the issue .
What exactly happened ?
If you could explain us about the issue ,we would progress in that specific direction to give you a proper solution.
What exact version of Acrobat are you using?
What OS do you work on?
Is it a subscription or a perpetual license ?
Please provide us with the above mentioned details so that we can figure out what specifically the issue is and we could assist you with it .

Product update/upgrade policy by Adobe
Adobe is selling software with less validity than a yogurth: I bought the upgrade of Elements suite to version 8 in August this year and One and a half month later this product has expired because Adobe released version 9. Any decent company would provide me with a free upgrade, but this is no Adobe policy: they just care for the money.
So you can judge by yourselfs, here's the case story at Adobe support:

Just to let you know that I regret your dcision on this matter.
I would just like to let you know that I consider, at least, unethical to sell a piece of software with a validity of a pack of cook
ies (one and a half month!!!).
Even though I now undestand why people use ilegal software, I will not take this way, but I most certainly will stop using your soft
ware and make shure that as many people as possible will know how Adobe treats their clients.
Beste regards

Hello,
Thank you for contacting Adobe Customer Service.

purchased directly from us. Getting back to your order number:

original purchase does not qualify with the post-announce eligibility

your case to our higher department to review your request. Rest assured
this will be taken cared of.

Good afternoon Cathy,
Thank you very much for your reply
I'm sorry but I don't understand what is the response you are expecting from me. All I can say is:
1- I properly identified the order number from the purchase in your store (#AD001971320PT), therefore, you know that I bought the pr
oduct on 20/08/2010 from your online store.
2- I don't know the release date of the new version. Even less what was the "team determined eligibility period for complimentary up
grades" (I just can find that information on your site).
Therefore, I would like you to tell me if I'm "eligible for complimentary upgrade", or not.
Thank you for your help and best regards,
Fernando

Hello,
Thank you for contacting Adobe.
When Adobe releases a new product, the product team determines an
eligibility period for complimentary upgrades. If you purchased your
product after Adobe's public announcement of a new version and within
this eligibility period, you may be eligible for a complimentary
upgrade. This policy applies whether you purchased directly from Adobe
or from an authorized Adobe reseller. If you purchased from a reseller,
you must provide valid proof of purchase. See Valid proof of purchase
(637dc56).
For additional information, please see Complimentary upgrade eligibility
after new product announce (15304). If you believe that you qualify for
a complimentary upgrade, please contact Adobe Support. For contact
information, visit www.adobe.com/support/contact.
Thank you,
Cathy
