Trying to set up a version cue server

I'm new to Version Cue, never used it. I'm trying to use Version Cue through Bridge. In the Content window I see Browse Servers and Recent Projects, but not Start My Server. In the Bridge Preferences Adobe Version Cue and VersionCueSDKLoader are checked.
I checked both my original PS CS3 installation disk and the Adobe Installer utility to see if I needed to install anything but Version Cue doesn't come up as an item to install.
I'm using OS 10.5.2 on a MacBook Pro.
Would appreciate any advice.

I have a similar problem. I started to set-up my server, but when my browser launched I only got my home page, not the version cue set-up screen I was expecting to see. When I went back to the bridge I no longer had the option to start a server. Where do I go from here?

  • Version Cue Server 4.0.1 Update Problems

    I've recently run into a problem with Version Cue Server 4.0.1. I've been using "Adobe Creative Suite CS4 Master Collection" without any problems until a couple of days ago when I ran the updates.
    The updates locked up and failed on Version Cue, and after that, every time I right click on my desktop or in Windows Explorer, I get the error message:
    "The specified module could not be found. C:\Program Files\Common Files\Adobe\Adobe Version Cue CS4\4.0.1\VersionCue.DLL"
    Then everything crashes and reloads.
    I called tech support and they said to reboot in a simplified mode, create a new administrator account, and reinstall version cue. Didn't work. I tried reinstalling both from the CD and from the downloaded update. Same problem. The installation goes most of the way and then fails.
    I uninstalled Master Suite and was able to right-click again without problems, so I went back to a simplified boot and tried re-installing the software...which crashed my computer and caused the same right-click error message.
    As I said earlier, everything worked fine right up until the point I ran the updates, so I know the software will run on my computer (Vista 32bit service pack 1).
    Thoughts?

    All,
    I personally have been driving this issue at Adobe. As mentioned before, we've been hindered by the fact that we cannot yet reproduce the problem on a machine in our offices. But I've been doing all that I can to coordinate between customers and Senior Computer Scientists who are investigating this.
    Here's the new information that has been learned by remotely debugging on customer's machines (great thanks to those who have made time for this!).
    The problem is isolated to the binary patching function in our update components. This means updates that modify the files on your current system are impacted. Updates that simply replace the existing files with all new versions of the files, are not affected. While I don't have a complete list of which update uses which method, I can say that the recently released Photoshop CS4 and InDesign CS4 updates use a full file replacement method, so they should be no risk.
    It was earlier believed that this problem only happened in the context of the Adobe_Updater.exe, which downloads the updates and runs them in with UI suppressed. This is now known not to be true, so "manual" running of the updates is not a valid workaround (sorry for those who spent time trying this).
    There is some suspicions that the issue has to do with the temp folder being used by the updater. I've tested a private build with a change in this area on a couple customer machines, and got more elegant failures (didn't cause apps to stop working), but still no success
    Lourens Van Der Jagt,
    I found your observation about the "FAST IO DISALLOWED" messages to be very interesting, and forwarded that, along with results of my recent tests of the private build, to the devs.
    One other thing that I found on the Vista machines I've looked at, which I'm curious about. On all machines I've looked at, the NTFS junction (looks like a shortcut) named "Program Data" in the root of the user folder is visible, while all other junctions are not. And, the junction can be browsed. All other Vista systems I've ever seen do not display this unless protected system files are asked to be displayed, and then they cannot be browsed.
    I want you all to know that I have been working hard to represent you and get a resolution for this. I appreciate the hardship it presents to you, and I take it very seriously. Please keep the dialog going, and I'll try to keep updating here and in other threads as much as I can.
    Sincerely,
    Matt

  • Help with CS3 Adobe Version Cue Server problem.

    Adobe Version Cue Server (CS3) doesn't display in the system prefs, niether will install a working copy off of Install disc after removed. There seems to be no way to fix this, In bridge it can't connect. All I get is a bunch of errors.

    CS3 is known for the worst version ever of Bridge and also not supported any longer, you are using Bridge version 2 and current CC version is Bridge 6.
    Also Version Cue has been discontinued per CS5
    There is a blog post about a fix for a certain problem but not sure this is what you need (it is for a Mac), you can give it a try:
    http://blogs.adobe.com/jnack/2008/03/a_tip_on_photoshop_mac_stability.html
    Also keep in mind Bridge is not developed nor official supported for use over a network.
    And in general, when something happens with Bridge first thing to try is resetting the preferences holding down option key (Mac) or ctrl (Win) while restarting Bridge.
    But also I'm not sure you are in the right forum. Do a forum search about Version Cue using the Adobe Forums as source and see what result you get.

  • When installing CS3 Design Premium it instals Version Cue server and shared components, but I get the message "Errors: 6 component (s)" and dose not install, Photoshop, Flash, Illustrator, Indesign or Creative Suite Premium

    When installing CS3 Design Premium it instals Version Cue server and shared components, but I get the message "Errors: 6 component (s)" and dose not install, Photoshop, Flash, Illustrator, Indesign or Creative Suite Premium

    Thank you Bturko in the future only migrate/copy/transfer your documents and settings.  Adobe applications especially are not designed to be transferred from one computer to another.  It is possible to recover however.  I would recommend the following steps:
    Run the uninstaller located in Applications/Utilities/Adobe Installers
    Run the CC Cleaner Tool to ensure complete removal - Use the CC Cleaner Tool to solve installation problems | CC, CS3-CS6 - http://helpx.adobe.com/creative-suite/kb/cs5-cleaner-tool-installation-problems.html.
    If you need to download a fresh copy of the installation files they can be downloaded at Download CS3 products.
    Run the installer and reinstall Creative Suite 3.

  • Why cant I label folders on the bridge that are located on Version Cue Server

    Can someone tell me why I cannot label or rate folders that I can see through bridge but the actual folders are on a version cue server.
    I can label each individual image or indesign file inside the folder but I cant label the folder itself or give it a rating.
    Any ideas?

  • No Version Cue in Bridge

    I am trying to connect to a version cue server using bridge but the connect menu is not showing up under tools.

    Know nothing about Version Cue, but this from the help file. "Version Cue is a file-version manager included with Creative Suite 3 Design, Web, and Master Collection editions that consists of two pieces: the Version Cue Server and Version Cue connectivity."
    Do you have one of the products above?

  • Connecting to Version Cue CS4 via Bridge?

    This is the set up;
    Windows 2008 Server:  Running Version Cue CS4,  no other software related to adobe products is installed, other than Version Cue, and any assets necessary for Version Cue to run.
    Client Work Stations running Windows 7 Ultimate, with Photoshop CS4 and After Effects CS4 Installed.
    When the clients open their bridge applications there is no visible way for them to connect to the bridge, located on the server, which is on the same network via the same router.
    If you run Version Cue directly off of the same system you're trying to connect to it on, it shows up on it's own.  How do you connect to a remove Version Cue CS4 server via bridge?  Where is the option to even add it? 
    I assume this would be similar to the default set up any work group would use when using these two tools together.  Why isn't there an option to browse for a VC server and put in it's IP or something. They're on the same network, so why can't we just see it and 'just' add it. 

    Jasker - Thanks you for trying to help, but it didn't work. I followed your directions. Then I attempted to restart the Version Cue server and a Safari browser opened and pointed to http://localhost:3703/ with the message "Safari cant connect to the server.
    Safari cant open the page http://localhost:3703/ because it could not connect to the server localhost."
    I just want it to start up again so I can properly retrieve all of our projects! Even if I can get it back up, I don't think I will use Version Cue the way we used to, now that I know how unreliable it can be.
    Can anyone at least offer advice on how to salvage shared projects (created and maintained by 2 different users) from the Version Cue server when it's offline?

  • Online Review With Adobe Reader and Version Cue

    I am trying to set up a review system, and I have been using Version Cue CS3 as the host.
    I have had success in setting it all up, and it is all working except for one problem. Any users using Adobe Reader (Versions 7 or 8 ) cannot comment on the files even though I have enabled the PDFs for "Commenting and Editing for Adobe reader". You can comment on the Document if you open the file directly, but not using Version Cue Server, which is browser based. Is there a way to make PDFs able to be commented by Adobe Reader users?
    I guess my request is that you enable commenting in Adobe Reader when working in a web based system.

    Arwind, sounds like spam to me. If you have a solution to the question, please say so.
    Philip, I have had success with Shared reviews initiated from Acrobat 8 Pro and reviewed with Reader 8. There is not much to the process, you only need a shared drive that all users can access. If you have some users that cannot access the drive, then a WebDAV server may be needed, but adds extra complications. I have not had much experience with Version Cue server for PDF reviewing, but am interested in hearing more from other users.
    Also, Adobe's Video Workshop has insightful training videos on Version Cue and Acrobat reviewing.

  • Version Cue CS3 and PSE 4 with Adobe Bridge

    will Version Cue on CS3 work with PSE4 and Adobe Bridge and if possible, please direct me to "how to set it up." Desperate to exchange .psd files with another user in another town.

    I have no answers to Jon's questions - Iam interested in the answers, too!
    ... and I have another question, which might fit into this topic:
    I own CS 4 (DP & PP) for Mac and want to install the version cue server on a PC(-Server).
    Do I really have to buy a PC-Version of the suite to get that done?
    The Tutorial says its possible and legal to install the version cue server on a different computer, which is quite logical.
    But does it really need to be the same OS? I searched all the DVD's but did not find any-PC-thing at all ...
    Thanks in advance for any (reasonable) answer(s).

  • Bridge CS3 Version Cue Folder ICONS Incorrect (Windows 7)

    Hello,
    After updating to Windows 7 Premium 64-bit, the folder icons that appear in Bridge CS3 when browsing a Version Cue Server appear as little hard-drives with a windows icon. (We use Bridge CS3 to avoid using the notorious "Adobe Drive CS4".)
    We could live with these new icons and pretend that they're folders, but does anyone know of a hack or the registry location to flip these icons back to a folder icon?
    Thanks,
    JP

    Hi Curt,
    I just tried it and it didn't work. My issue isn't with the Adobe icons or thumbnails of the actual files, just with the icons that are shown for the sub-folders.
    thanks,
    JP

  • CS3 Version Cue not loading in Bridge

    I'm trying to access a version cue server in bridge, but there is no button to access version cue in bridge. i know there is supposed to be a button in the favorites panel, but its not there, and there is no way to 'check it' in preferences. its checked under the startup scripts panel in preferences.
    version cue server is started and running, its in my task manager as well as my taskbar.
    I've tried uninstalling and reinstalling bridge and version cue several times, and that hasn't fixed the problem. I've tried unchecking version cue and sdkloader, then restarting bridge, then rechecking them, restarting bridge, to no avail. there is nothing in my inspector panel, nor in the inspector panel preferences. i even tried reinstalling all of CS3, that didn't help. but - i had the reinstaller save my preferences, b/c im apprehensive to lose all my custom workspace settings. i tried resetting the preferences in bridge with 'alt-ctrl' on load, didn't help.
    any ideas would be great. if i can avoid completely removing CS3 (my preferences mainly) i would appreciate it.

    You should see Version Cue under menu Edit => Preferences => and then select the General category. Version Cue should be the top left checkbox in Favorite Items at the bottom of the General category.
    If you don't see Version Cue listed there, start the Version Cue server, and then start Bridge and try the above again. An easy way to start the server (provided that it has been started before, and is thus installed as a service) is to type the following at the Windows Command prompt:
    net start "Adobe Version Cue CS3"
    NOTE: You must include the quotes as shown immediately above.

  • CS3 Version Cue as a sync tool?

    Has anyone tried saving a Lightroom library to a VC "Lightroom" project? Any idea if using this approach would work as a way to synch a library & all its related folders/files easily between a desktop/laptop?

  • Scripting System Preferences/Adobe Version Cue Preferences

    I'm trying to disable the Adobe Version Cue CS2 status bar menu on a number of machines at the same time. I can't figure out how to reference the check box for it though.
    tell application "System Preferences"
    activate
    set current pane to pane "com.adobe.versioncueCS2.VCPrefPane"
    tell application "System Events"
    [click the box, darn you!]
    end tell
    end tell
    So far, I can successfully bring up the version cue preference pane. everything i try in the system events section of the script, i receive a "NSReceiverEvaluationScriptError: 4" From reading on various sites, I conclude that I'm just not references the check box correctly.
    I've found the following information about the checkbox from UI Element Inspector:
    <AXApplication: "System Preferences">
    <AXWindow: "Adobe Version Cue CS2">
    <AXTabGroup>
    <AXCheckBox: "Show Version Cue CS2 Status in menu bar">

  • Error connecting to Version Cue after installing Safari update 3.1.1!

    I'm having trouble restarting the Version Cue server. It was running just fine before my Mac (OSX 10.4.11) restarted after installing the Safari 3.1.1 update this morning. This is the error message I receive when attempting to start VC:
    Version Cue CS3 could not be started.
    Please check the Version Cue CS3 logs.
    So I checked the logs by browsing through the Library/Application Support/Adobe/Adobe VersionCue/Server/logs
    Below, please find the chunk of information from the log where the problem began. I'm not saavy at all with this - but I do see in the log something about mDNS and after dealing with this problem all morning, I caught a bit of talk in other forums about this particular Safari update changing your DNS settings. Is this related? If it is, what should I do? If it isn't, what should I do?
