What is up with using Adobe stuff with Leopard 10.5.2?

All of my new Adobe DS Premium stuff is crashing upon launch suddenly and I'm told that there is a bug on Apple's side with compatibility here. Nobody's "home" at Adobe right now; I have tons of work to get done. I purchased their Design Suite Premium package and up until a week or so ago, everything worked just fine. Today an update came along - I installed it per the instructions, and I am still not only finding it impossible to launch the program but the dialog box pops up from Apple every time offering to send a message to Apple re the problem (and again, on the Adobe site, there is some noise there about this being something Apple is working on). Does ANYbody have any insight into this and/or at LEAST a workaround???? I've already run that CS 3 clean thing of Adobe's several times and run DU. Everything else on my system works fine.

What update did you install?
I see there are about 7 updates available since the last time I updated.
adobe reader 8 language support, adobe air update for flash, adobe bridge 2.1.1 update, start meeting 1.0.1, flash lite update, adobe asset services and adobe version cue3.1.0.
I don't have version cue installed anyway.
I turned off auto updating just for the reason you opened this discussion.
I have found doing any updates with any unnecessary programs or processes running
is a big risk because of locked and in use files not getting updated properly.
This may be what has happened in your case.
I update all software in safe mode if possible. If that isn't practical for some reason, I
shut down all unnecessary programs and processes before updating and do a disk check.
It only takes one corrupt file to shut you down or cripple an application or applications.

  • Help with Using Adobe Reader with iBook G4

    I have downloaded Adobe Reader 7.0.8 several times in order to read eBooks on my G4 12"iBook using OS 10.4.7. I activated the Adobe program as directed but continue to get an error message when attempting to use the application. The message indicates that...
    Could not create an EDB database: Unable to load the specified database dynamic link library.
    I've sent Adobe Reader 7.0.8 to the trash and reinstalled the program from the Adobe site several times thinking that something is missing from the download; I still get the error message. Amazingly I did the same process on my iMac G5 desktop and everything works fine; the book shows up! I've posted the problem on Adobe forums for Reader but no help came back.

    some info from Adobe site:
    http://support.adobe.com/devsup/devsup.nsf/docs/54170.htm
    also found this suggestion on Adobe forum:
    "Under Adobe Reader 7.05, the edb1drv file is in the following directory: macos/selfhealfiles/CFMSupport/Library/CFMSupport/edb1drv
    Exit from Adobe Reader 7.05. Locate the file and move that file to the /Library/CFMSupport/ folder. Then restart Adobe Reader 7.05. Adobe Reader 7.05 will be able to read the edb1drv file and stop the error message."

  • I am using Adobe Reader with paid up service through May 2015.  When I attempt to convert a file from PDF or to PDF, I get the message "An error occured while trying to access the service.  What do I need to do to access the service paid for?

    I am using Adobe Reader with paid up service through May 2015.  When I attempt to convert a file either to PDF or from PDF, I get the error message, "An error occurred while trying to access the service".  What do I need to do to get access to the service I have paid for?

    Hi DeaconTomColorado,
    Please see "Error occurred when trying to access this service" when logging on to Acrobat.com.
    Adobe has just released an update to Adobe Reader, so if you're accessing the service via Reader, please let us know whether the update helps resolve the issue.

    Not sure what you mean by that: is that URL in an image, or is it actual text?
    If it is in an image, then you need to extract the image, edit it with something like Photoshop, then add it back to the PDF.
    If the URL is actual text, I suggest that you remove the entire URL, then add the corrected link.

  • How to use Adobe forms with F150 Dunning Run

    Hi,
    I want to use Adobe forms with the transaction F150 Dunning Run.
    How do I get the adobe form in customizing? I have put the FM 'FI_PRINT_DUNNING_NOTICE_PDF' in business transaction Event, BF31 - P/S modules of SAP app - 00001720, Fi-FI. But it is still not recognizing the ADOBE form.
    Any help is greatly appreciated.

    Hi,
    I am also working for calling custom adobe form instead of sapscript.
    While configuring BTE 1720, i noticed that configuring BTE only FI-FI application does not solve the purpose. You need to assign function module FI_PRINT_DUNNING_NOTICE_PDF for all Application Area Indicator.
    Adding to IS-PS will allow to print for customer.
    This solved my problem. But this setting is global so you need to take care of it.

    Adobe Reader Splash--I have a PDF file that whenever I try to open it suggests using Adobe Reader with a link to download Adobe Reader. I can't get beyond this. I have made Preview the default for all PDF's and yet this persists. I have also deleted Adobe Reader. This particular file is a portfolio, btw.

  • Is it safe to use adobe flash with lion

    Is it sfae to use adobe flash with lion on my macbook?

    Note that fake Flash installers are a common way to sneak malware into your system, and there's one going around right now called Flashback.  Because of this, never ever ever click a link like the one Kappy gave you!  Now, Kappy is trustworthy...  but it's still always the safest bet to go to the Adobe web site directly.  Type "www.adobe.com" into your browser's address bar, then click the Downloads link on the Adobe site, rather than clicking a link that takes you anywhere else.

  • Are there advantages to using Adobe Bridge with Premiere Pro?

    I frequently use pictures with my videos.  Normally, I use Windows Explorer with the picture viewer to browse for what I'd like to use.  I've experimented with Bridge, finding it to be a memory hog and slow.  It got me wondering - Are there advantages vs. Windows Explorer?

    Bridge can be used to easily add hierarchical keywords to large amounts of clips (and afaik it's the only tool in the Adobe suit that can do hierarchical keywording with video files). Those keywords can then be used to find clips inside of Premiere. On large projects (1000+ clips) that can be a life saver.
    Apart from this and the features you mentioned (the cross software color stuff is useless for video as of CS6), I did not find any use to Bridge for video. Plus as you said, it is a memory hog, slow and in my own experience unstable with /  not adapted to video.

  • Nested Object Calculation using Adobe InDesign with JavaScriptExtended.

    Hi
                          In my App.Document have different types of textframes and images with several parastyles. I want to make mesurement calculation (in mm)the between the particular parastyle data with image using Adobe JavaScriptExtended.
    Ex:

    Note:
            1. Parastyles are applied in Adobe Indesign
            2. Data from Tagged Text.

    I do know next to nothing about CEP5.
    Just a question: Why do you try to escape "/" in the string "editor-vaCome\/ibraEEE" ?
    At least this is my guess what you want to do here…
    If you want to feed the argument string "editor-vaComet/ibraEEE" to peer.connect() you cannot "escape" that slash… At least not in terms of ExtendScript.

  • Teething troubles with Using Adobe Captivate

    Hello I have never used Adobe Captivate before, and would be grateful for some answers. I know people are very busy and may not want to deal with beginners but any comments suggestions partial tips will be gratefully appreciated
    I am trying to do screen recording and run into difficulties.  I want to record a short (<10min) video of an instructive tutorial that plays on the internet. This tutorial has slides, and it is advanced by hand (manually) to the next slide
    I was able to record video correctly, using the "Full Motion" mode. But when I use the other 2 available modes: I.e,Automatic, and Manual, I am not able to record. What happens it, I merely get a still picture upon playback, that runs as a video for 3 seconds. It turns out somewhere in "settings" there is a default which says slide length =3sec.  It looks like what I am getting recorded is a single slide, containing the very 1st scene.  What have I done wrong?
    What I need to record are slides, some of which contain video and speech, some containing video but no speech,some are stills. In the Full Motion Mode
    The video is being recorded split into many bits , and these bits (slides) are unequal in length, the first slide being of longest duration,  the last slide is of shortest  duration. Should they not equal in length? Also how to convert into "normal" formats like AVI? What kind of media player would play these presentations/slide shows when each slide is a short video? Further I do not hear any audio.
    Also what is panning
    I am shunned because I am a woman and no one helps me with anything because I am supposed by a tacit rule to be with women ALL THE TIME and I am failing in what I am supposed to do. I have no means of using my brain or actively pursuing  science and technology, and others in it will not speak to me because of my defiance of that rule. I hope some MAN who doesn't mind will volunteer answers and I promise not to bother you again. I won't speak to you again, I wont come ont his site again, I have women's numbers.I wil be very grateful if you help me
    Thanking you,
    Yours SIncerely,

    Hi folks and welcome to our community Milliemachine3
    All I can say is... wow! I'm not sure where you live, but it sounds sort of "stuck in time" if you are really made to feel like an outcast just because your body has different parts.
    All that aside, I'll take a stab at answering your questions.
    I was able to record video correctly, using the "Full Motion" mode. But when I use the other 2 available modes: I.e,Automatic, and Manual, I am not able to record.

    The only thing you have done wrong is to misunderstand how Captivate is used to record screen activity. How successful you will be will depend on the version of Captivate you have installed as well as what your operating system is. For example, if you have Windows 7 64 bit and you are trying to use Captivate 4 (or earlier) you will likely encounter problems. But if you were using Windows XP you would likely be fine.
    You may also be misunderstanding exactly how Captivate records the screen.
    What I need to record are slides, some of which contain video and speech, some containing video but no speech,some are stills. In the Full Motion Mode The video is being recorded split into many bits, and these bits (slides) are unequal in length, the first slide being of longest duration,  the last slide is of shortest  duration. Should they not equal in length? Also how to convert into "normal" formats like AVI? What kind of media player would play these presentations/slide shows when each slide is a short video? Further I do not hear any audio.
    I'm not sure I've ever seen ANY software that does a flawless job of recording screen video where you are playing a video clip. You have to understand that video is usually memory and processor intensive. Not only for recording it, but also for playing it back. If you can, you will likely achieve your best result by locating the actual source file for the video and using that with Captivate. However, this somewhat depends on your Captivate version.
    Also what is panning
    Panning is a feature that allows you to record a smaller area of your screen. As you move the cursor around, the recording area is shifted to include parts of the screen that maybe weren't in the recording before. Maybe you are recording a 200x200 sized area. You are in the upper left corner of the screen performing some activity such as opening the File menu. But you move the mouse over to the right side to scroll the page. The recording would look as if you were peering through a small window and the larger area that was formerly hidden would appear in the window.
    I am shunned because I am a *woman* and no one helps me with anything because I am supposed by a tacit rule to be with women ALL THE TIME and I am failing in what I am supposed to do. I have no means of using my brain or actively pursuing  science and technology, and others in it will not speak to me because of my defiance of that rule.

I won't speak to you again, I wont come ont his site again, I have women's numbers.I wil be very grateful if you help me
    Well, I sincerely wish you the best in your Captivate journeys. Hopefully it will comfort you to know that what you are experiencing isn't a universal rule. I think women and men are equals. And anyone that believes differently has a very stilted view of the world.

  • Using Adobe Photoshop with Apple OSX 10.5.1

    hi, when i try to use photoshop 7.0.1 with osx 10.5.1 i get the following error msg:
    'an unexpected and unrecoverable problem has occurred because of a program error. Photoshop will now exit'
    there are other little problems like getting a spinning cursor when i'm executing some routine task from a menu. in fact, since i installed osx 10.5.1, i get that annoying spinning rainbow cursor regularly. it's as if the computer is struggling to complete the task.
    considering the hype leading up to the launch of leapard, i was anticipating a dramatic boost in speed and performance. but instead, my computer seems to be slower than before i installed it and always, always the dreaded spinning rainbow cursor plagues me.
    has anyone else had these problems happening to them?
    thanx,
    mike

    Well, maybe, CS3 is the only one fully compatible, but Photoshop CS and CS2 will work...mostly. There are a couple of niggling little problems, but I have been able to do what I want, one way or another, with CS1. Elements 2 is, like PS7, a dead letter in Leopard, but Elements 3 and 4 work. Of course, these older programs run in Rosetta, being non-Intel native, and so my MacPro runs them at the same speed as my old G4 dual 800. I'm looking forward to a speed boost when my Xmas upgrade to CS3 is installed.

  • Using Adobe Ideas with Illustrator CS3

    I am using Adobe Ideas in an iPhone.  I have Adobe Illustrator CS3 which won't open the idea file.  Do I need to update my version of Illustrator or is there some way to open the files with the version I have?  Also, are they vector or rastor files? 

    Hi!  You are correct, Adobe Illustrator CS3 will not open an Ideas file.  As a minimum, you will need Adobe Illustrator CS5, which also requires the Ideas/Illustrator plugin.  If you upgrade to Illustrator CS5, you need to download & install the Creative Cloud desktop application and then install the Touch Apps Plugins.
    Alternatively, if you upgrade to the latest Adobe Illustrator, you should be able to open your Ideas files in it directly.
    Let me know if this helps or if you have any further questions.

  • How to use Adobe flash with iPad?

    Is there a way to use adobe flash in safari with the new iPad? I am a new ipad user. Thanks

    No, flash is not supported on the iPad - and as Adobe have announced that they are stopping development on all mobile versions of it, it probably never will be.
    Browser apps such as Skyfire, iSwifter, Puffin and Photon 'work' on some sites, but judging by their reviews not all sites. Also some websites have their own apps in the App Store.

  • What Rendering intent is used when exporting with a different color space?

    Hi,
    I would be ever so grateful if any one can tell me what rendering intent is used by LR4 when exporting using a custom colour space as there is not an option as there is with the print module.
    Thanks.

    Actually, an RGB color space to RGB colorspace is always only Relative Colorimetric...and adding Perceptual would only work with certain V4 ICC color spaces (you can find perceptual V4 color spaces for sRGB and ProPhoto I think but I'm not sure they would work in Lightroom anyway).
    When using an RGB print output profile you can select either Perceptual or Relative and have the intents actually applied.
    True.
    The case of interest to me is when I have to print a lot of files using a third-party profile and maintain the original filename so it appears on the back.  That is why I made the request more than a year ago.
    The problem with the Print module is that it clobbers the filename but does allow 2 choices for the rendering intent.  Having to deal with weird filenames creates a mess when matching, say, 50 prints with custom notecards.
