Thank You Adobe for Fixing Bridge

Wow, that was a very long. painful and frustrating wait to get a version of Bridge that works again. Bridge CS3 was the worst piece of Adobe software that I have used since 94 or 95, Bridge CS4 now actually works again, hooray! Thank you Adobe!

>Don't be absurd, Omke. It's not a free fix for CS3 users. Bridge 2.x was horribly broken and it should have been fixed for free, period.
Well Ramón, I put a smiley in that post...
But serious, I also (as you have done before) have written many times that Bridge was a free application that came with PSCS. Personal I did not have that horrible experience with it that you had. Yes, there were troubles every now and then but I solved them with the cache, plist and refresh method I often described.
I do suspect that the fact that I work on an intel Mac has also something to do with that. However, my experience with Bridge 3 is very positive and a massive improvement compared to Bridge 2.
Yes it would be nice if there had been an update but they have chosen to put al their effort in a new Bridge with some very nice improvements added to the interface (pathbar and better visible menu's to mention a view) and a much better (but not the best) cache management.
Together with Leopard 10.5.5 and CS4 I fully agree with Ann. The improvement of Bridge is (although it comes again for free with PS... :-) ) alone reason enough to upgrade.
kind regards
Omke

Thank you Adobe for Lightroom 4

Rarely do I take the time to comment on forums unless I have an issue, but I have to just say that Adobe made my day when I discovered the availability of Lightroom 4 (I've been a longtime user), purchased it, installed it (easily) and found to my delight the video support particularly for mts files. I had been unable to find a suitable cataloging program for mts files and was had to resort to Picasa. So thank you Adobe!

Indeed Lr4/PV2012 rocks! (for the vast majority of my photos).
It really is a pleasure to be able to edit tone without having to worry about stuff like:
- Be careful brightening or it'll get washed out.
- Be careful increasing contrast or highlights will lose detail.
- Be careful increasing fill-light or the colors will go wonky...
Make it as bright or as dim as you want, where you want - PV2012 has your back...

Thank you, Adobe for the enhanced actions editor (Was: Thank you, Adobe)

Just want to thank you for the Enhanced Actions Editor... fantastic!
Months ago, I had requested to have something similar that Flash Catalyst had, and you delivered.

Hi Eddie,
On behalf of the product team and Adobe, I thank you for sharing your feedback on the new feature. We are glad that you liked it and we are hoping that it will be as useful to our other users too.
Have a nice day!
Thanks,

Thank you Adobe for being better than useless at solving my SD 16:9 PAR Problem

I have read everything on these forums about the new PAR for SD 16:9 which is now 1050 x 576. I have finally got a project for broadcast on SKY and guess what I can't even get a video cleared on Clearcast because it won't accept the new PAR, their server throws up an inccorect PAR error saying my video is 1:1.85 which is incorrect for their purposes. I explained the logic to various technical guys there and they understand but don't care, they want an anamorphic SD 16:9 video that scales to 1024 x 576. I've tried everything and have had to resort to either sending it to a post production facility and being charged not only for the rough cuts I send to Clearcast but also the final versions to Adcast for final approval for SKY or buying Sorenson Squeeze. Premiere is useless for both purposes because they are sticking to 1050 x 576 PAR for SD 16:9. Before you try to explain that this is correct, I already know, but that isn't helping solve my problem. This is SKY we are talking about, one of the major broadcasters and Premiere has failed to deliver. This is going to cost me £300 - 500 to sort out. I've used Premiere for must be getting on for 10 years, people have been complaining about this problem for ages and there are work arounds but none of them solve the final export PAR. If I buy Sorenson, I think I might go to FCP or Avid for the first time in 10 years of editing; I finally get a broadcast job and Premiere fails me, thanks a bunch Adobe, all you have to do is offer the ability to do this whether it is right or wrong and you can't deliver on it, just take a look at your forums and you will see that this is a recurring problem, why the hell haven't you sorted it out.
If I have to pay £500 plus for Sorenson just to encode SD video I'm damn sure I'm not going to upgrade to CC on principle, time to jump ship I think, Adobe have obviously reached that size that all companies reach where they no longer care about the small guy trying to do his job.

Before you try to explain that this is correct
I'm not sure it is correct. On the NTSC side, it's definitely not correct. Adobe switched to the PAR used by the BBC, but those values were designed for use with the 702 pixel Clean Aperture. That's fine with analog material, but it actually works out to be incorrect for digital signals using the full 720 raster. This is why we get very small black bars on the sides when downscaling HD to SD, even though the SAR is identical for both.
Rather than use the correct values, Adobe switched to the incorrect values used by much of the world.
Except SKY, it would seem. But that does mean you will have to follow the instructions provided by both Jeff and Mark in the original thread.

Thank You Adobe for Killing Freehand

Well Adobe you've done it...finally kiling the only
competition you had in Aldus Freehand. Yeah, Yeah, whatever
Crackromedia. Let's kill the only program that actually does things
easier and better than the postscipt gods can do it. Yes, I know
you invented the PS language, thanks for that. But....Frustrator is
kinda sickening to try to use. Instead of a few clicks, let's make
the user do 10 clicks! What a concept. If I hear "Oh, but
Illustrator users use alot more keyboard commands than the average
user, I'm gonnaPUKE!" Ok, I have to rant here. I will use FH until
they pry it from my cold dead fingers...

> I have never seen Illustrator (used FH since the Aldus
days), but from
> the
> comments here I am guessing they are not an easy
exchange. Yes? No?
> Adobe DID
> say Illustrator will open FreeHand files, so at least
there is that.
To be pragmatic, consider FH completely and utterly dead.
It's been buggy since version 8, IMHO and has just gotten
flakier as the
OSes and Hardware has been updated while FH has just sat
there.
I love FH. I'll keep using it, but if I were getting back
into professional
print design (I do mainly web stuff) I'd be hunkering down
and using AI for
clients, while trying out every possible open source and
commercial
alternative in the meantime. ;o)

Thank You Adobe and Lightroom Team!

I just wanted to publicly thank Adobe and the Lightroom Team. I appreciate all of your hard work over the last year or more. Lightroom is a great program (even if there are bugs and issues that we all complain about on here). I love it.
I also wanted to thank you for the offer that was extended to the Pixmantec Rawshooter Premium customers. I was sorely disappointed to hear that Pixmantec had been bought by Adobe. But now that I've used Lightroom, I am pleased and very thankful for the goodwill and hospitality that was ushered forth to us. I look forward to using Lightroom (and updated versions of it) for many years to come! Thank you again for taking care of your customers and making new ones!
Thank you,

I use the free versions of picmnatic for about a year when LRbeta came out.
WOW!
Being ever fearfull of Betas I tiptoed into the fray.
WOW!
Great beta, and now I am looking forward to finally loading LR.1
I am a happy camper.
I can use LR on a very simple level: Choosing,cropping,color,contacts and web gallery.
OR really MONK it and fill out ALL database infow on each choice starting with the copyright symbol to INFINITY!!
I can definatly grow with LR the same way I am with PhotoShop CS2.
Thanks Adobe,

Thank you all for the responses. By process of elimination, I think the problem is the connection to the express in between the extreme and dock. I bought another express and tried it at dock, no luck, I then replaced new express where the one is between

I have an airport extreme and express setup. My extreme is in my 2nd floor office with windows facing the water. My dock is about 250 ft away down a very steep hill. I have the express about 100 ft down the hill in an electrical waterproof box attached to a tree as high as I could install. The signal is weak and I'm thinking I might have to buy another express. Any thoughts on the best setup for me. I ultimately want to control speakers(hard wired in) down at the dock with my iphone. I have a receiver coming with airplay built in.
Thank you all for the responses. By process of elimination, I think the problem is the connection to the express in between the extreme and dock. I bought another express and tried it at dock, no luck, I then replaced new express where the one is between extreme and dock, no better. I unplugged the express between extreme and dock and there was no difference. So I believe I am connecting to the airport express or extreme that is inside the house. Again because when i approach express that is halfway I reconnect. so if you can understand my chaos, I believe the express in between is not really connecting to the extreme inside my house. Yes, No? So I need to know how to know if the express half way down the hill is getting the connection from the the extreme in the house. This is wearing me out!!!!!

You are asking several different questions. If you need to store your photos, music, and movies on an external volume, you certainly can. Any externally connected hard disk drive will work, connected either directly to your Mac or to your Time Capsule as a shared volume.
You should not rely upon using that as a backup device though. Although you certainly may use it for both purposes, it is a better idea to have dedicated backup devices for a variety of reasons not limited to redundancy. You would not want to simultaneously lose all your pictures as well as your backup. If they are all on the same device, that could happen. Furthermore, a backup cannot back up the volume on which it is running.
As for adding an Extreme or Express, using its LAN port for your iMac, and then enable Internet sharing so you can effectively use the iMac as a "hotspot", you can do that too, but I am unclear on what benefit you believe this arrangement would convey for you.
An Extreme's Guest network is separate from its Main network; that is the reason for having it.

Thank you guys for helping me out now I can now access my IPad. But there is one more challenge, the iPad is showing negative view so I can not see the true color of things

Thankyou Adobe for fixing responsive design problem!

Hi just wanted to say thank you to Adobe for addressing the responsive scaling problem in Edge Animate (the one with
pushing lower divs down in Dreamweaver). So thank you! This problem was seriously messing with my head. I am
starting a new site and with the new fix it will be awesome, so thanks

Hi
I hope you have upgraded to the latest captivate version 8.0.1.242. If not please follow the steps mentioned on this post Adobe Captivate Help | Adobe Captivate 8 patch. Make sure to remove layouts and preferences as mentioned in the link.
There is an issue with text in case of multi-hierarchal bullets but apart from that other things should work fine. You might just have to change some position parameters to fix the results. Can you please share the project, so that I can reproduce the issues at my end. My email address is [email protected] . You can send it via email or drop box.
Captivate responsive output works for multiple browsers. Please check the link Tech Specs - eLearning, mobile learning & Training Software | Adobe Captivate 8 for details.

Thank you Adobe........NOT

I personally wish to thank everyone at Adobe and especially the Board of fools. I appreciate you forcing me to use Windows Vista, and a product that is severely inferior to the original Macintosh product of FrameMaker. I especially appreciate that most of the features in Windows aren't even available in the "new" version. I like that I can not use all those nifty shortcuts that I spent years learning to make my job easier. Apparently Windows users are too dumb to use shortcuts? That must be your logic. Yes the new features are great, were you trying to increase job security by making us work longer on what is simple in the Mac version? Well, again, I thank you that I will be going back to my old "non-Intel" based Mac, running Classic, and will continue to use FrameMaker 7 for Mac and will not be using my copy of FrameMaker 8 as it is going in the trash. I refuse to work with a product that doesn't even have the same features. FrameMaker for windows is more of a Downgrade for me so for now I file it in the trash next to what I think of your intelligent developers and business practices. Fix this.

Charles, A shortcut is a shortcut. What is so "unreal" about any keystroke combination that does what you require? You currently already have (and always have had) the ability to modify any keystroke combination in FM to whatever you want. Every FM keystroke combination is defined in the cmds.cfg file located in the \fminit\configui folder. The wincmds.cfg file (in the same folder) contains the Windows specific customizations for the established keystroke functions. For example, if you wish to modify the command to view Master Pages to ctrl+alt M (note that is the same number of keystrokes as esc v M, which was originally defined in first version of FM on unix some twenty years ago - before there ever was a Mac or Windows version) you would simply insert or modify the following line in the wincmds.cfg file : <Modify ViewMasterPages <KeySequence ^~+m>> This has always been documented in the online manuals Customizing_Frame_Products.pdf file (see the section titled "Changing Menus and Commands").

I need to ask YOU, Adobe, for a huge favour.

Dear Adobe,
I would like to ask you; as the title suggests, a huge favour that will save me from loads of stress. So here is the story, I downloaded the Macromedia Flash MX version (yes, the ancient one, that they use for computer programming courses in high school), and it unfortunately expired before I could finish my Summative Assignment due tomorrow that is worth 30% of my final mark, and seeing as I would like to pursue a career with computers and computer programming, I would like to ask you if I could have Macromedia Flash MX for free, just until I can finish my project, and you can take it back if desired. I do enjoy Adobe and your creations, and I am thinking about purchasing your products when I am older. Seeing as this program is an older version, and is outdated and a bit overpriced for its age, I am thinking this would be no problem to make a 16 year old boy in high school's day. Hopefully you will take this into consideration as fast as your legs can carry you, and help e out with my struggles to finish this project. If you can do this for me, that would be amazing, but, if you can't, I understand your reasoning, it is after all a program that costs quite a bit of money, and you need to always turn a profit on everything, that's what businesses do. The version is Macromedia Flash MX Version 6.0, copy write 1993-2002.
Thank you for taking my post into consideration,
Andrew M.

THANK YOU ADOBE!

I'm so EXCITED! But, being 3:49 on a Friday, none of the other girls in the art department are quite as excited as I am! In Adobe Illustrator, Thank you for a shortcut key to PLACE an image AND PLACE MORE THAN 1 image at a time! woohoo!
PS I LOVE the new pen tool also!

In my opinion the "Undocumented" interfaces in the boss class reference could be explained better. Like this one (one of many many many):
IBoolData IID_IBOOLDATA
Undocumented.
Implementation: kBoolDataImpl
Available in: InDesign InCopy InDesign Server Class from:"DOCUMENT ACTIONS.RPLN"
I guess here the tool is useless, right.
Havent tried it yet, but I dont see too much advantage in it. I have been with InDesign API since 2004 and the normal way how to implement a new simple fuctionality is to know the exact name of a boss or command or interface so it is 9 parts of searching in all the documentation to 1 part of coding. The object model is over-complicated in my opinion - the question is why?

Thank you Adobe Staff

I attempt to answer questions on Bridge in this Forum, but many of the ones regarding CS5 problems are way over my head. So just wanted to say thank you for visiting this Forum and assisting on the sticky problems. Hope you folks continue to hang around.

I would like to echo Curt's comment. It's good to know we can get advice and info from the mountain top!

Thank you adobe, CC Storage is getting there

Hi CC Storage Team, I have been complaining about cloud storage for a while. But latest update as of a about a month ago has fixed most of the pressing issues with CC storage which is great. There will obviously still be things that need work but storage is becoming a viable option. I have not seen any sync issues, no error popups with temp files and no conflicted files which is all great.
The only issue I have a had on the odd occasion is locked files this seems to happen where a files says it is synced but the files remains locked and cannot be over written or delete etc. Only a restart will unlock the file. windows 8.1.
Once again thank you for all the work on storage and than you for listening to us.

Hi Dave
I think I have a fix for this issue. Upgrade too CC 2014 for indesign anyway which is where I saw the problem. I have just upgraded to indesign 2014 and the issue seems to be fixed, I still get the error about file in use. but this is my slow connection speed. If I wait for a bit then try again it works as soon as the file is finished what is was doing. It no longer stays locked.
With most of the bugs fixed, now all we need is more space.
Thanks for all the good update to storage.
Cheers Daniel
