Where is the offline help?

My biggest frustration with adobe Director 11, 11.5 and 12 is the online help. It is not effectively searchable as the search function searches all of adobe's knowledge base, and you can not limit the search to Director as it is not on the list.
I tried to get the PDF, but that link is broke...
http://help.adobe.com/en_US/Director/11.5/UsingScripting/director_reference.pdf
...and Adobe's link to submit a broken link is broken as well.
So Please Adobe, fix your web site, or at the very least fix the link to the offline docs.

These seems to be ok:
http://help.adobe.com/en_US/Director/11.5/ScriptingDictionary/director_11.5_scripting.pdf
http://help.adobe.com/en_US/Director/11.5/UsingDirector/director_11.5_help.pdf
Watch out for any spaces that the forum introdues. Neither of those links should have a space in them.

Where is the Offline form stored after its emailed out to SAP

Hi All,
I have created an offline form earlier. This is getting mailed to SAP, getting processed and then stored using an Archivelink solution to an external server. This is currently working and at any point we can pull up the adobe form from the server.
I am working on a second offline form now, for which the client doesnt want to use the external server or Archivelink.
This made me wonder as to where the pdf form gets stored in SAP if we dont add any additional coding. Is it on the SAP Server ? I need to firstly check where the pdf form gets stored and secondly find the storage capacity as the client expects to send minimum one pdf form dialy to SAP. Thirdly I need to check if we can retrive the form back at a later stage for audit purposes.
Any idea where the offline form gets stored in SAP once an email is sent ? Any help on the above three ques is greatly appreciated.
Thanks in advance! Liz

Hi Otto,
You have a good concern. I am relatively new to SAP if you havent already guessed that and learning something new as each day passes. Therefore I do have a lot of doubts doing many things first time. Most of the time, the questions asked in these forums are way beyond me. Thus I am not able to help anyone.
However from my side, as and when I solve an issue with the help of an answer in the forum, I do post the solution to help others. If you think, there is any better way I can help, do let me know.
Thanks for your help as always, Liz

Where's the Chat Help ?

Where is the live Chat Help for BC? Did they get rid of it?

Hi eplusm,
I can confirm chat is available and you can access it now if required via your Partner Portal/Admin Console > Help & Support.
It seems you attempted to access chat on Sunday - please note we provide live chat support 24 hours a day, 5 days a week over various time zones. So when you attempted to access chat yesterday, you would not have seen the ability to initiate a chat as we were offline at that time.
Thanks.

Where is the "Photoshop Help Folder" located on the Mac?

Hi all,
I am trying to install Strata 3D tryout and it is asking for the location of the "Additional How To Content" folder, inside the "Photoshop Help Folder". I cannot find the "Photoshop Help Folder"... can someone tell me where it is located?
Thanks a lot in advance for your assistance:)
Christine

If you are not online and choose help, you'll get a html-based and non-updated version that's being read from your Libraries' Application Support folder.
If you want a help.pdf you can get it here:
http://help.adobe.com/en_US/Photoshop/11.0/photoshop_cs4_help.pdf
But by using the online version you're always up to date with Adobe, as probably is intended hence the help setup.

Problem only comes, when i send 2nd time or more. What is the problem? Please help me out.
Thanks for your response in advance. One more thing, Whether to send a mail & receive a mail, we need to create different sessions. one for sending & one for receiving mails.

I don't see anything obviously wrong in your code. Try adding
session.setDebug(true);
You can use the same Session for sending and for reading.
A Session just encapsulates your configuration parameters,
so as long as they're the same for both usages, one Session
is fine.

Where is the free help

Anyone can help me? I just updated my ipad mini to ios 8.1.1. Now i have problems with wifi, the ipad stucks and is very slow! Why isn't apple give us a free helpservice? Or does it excist?

Apple provides help if the iPad is still under the 90 day free phone support or if you have AppleCare+ which gives you two total years of free support. You can make an appointment at an Apple Store for which there is no charge or you can get online/email help for which there is no charge.
Try these suggestions and see if any of them help your situation.
Go to Settings>Safari>Clear History and Website Data
Now close all apps. In order to close apps, you have to drag the app up from the multitasking display. Double tap the home button and you will see apps lined up going left to right across the screen. Swipe to get to the app that you want to close and then swipe "up" on the app preview thumbnail to close it.
Next, reset the iPad by holding down on the sleep and home buttons at the same time for about 10-15 seconds until the Apple Logo appears - ignore the red slider if it appears on the screen - let go of the buttons. Let the iPad start up.
If those three things made no difference, try this. Reset all settings. You will not lose any data, but most of the device settings will have to be entered in the settings app again. Settings>General>Reset>Reset all Settings.
If all of that fails, restore the iOS software. Backup your iPad before you restore, then restore the backup when you are done. If that still doesn't help, restore your iPad as new and start all over again. Most purchased content can be downloaded again at no charge as long as you use the same Apple ID and as long as the content is still available in the store.

We paid so much for the software, and where is the help/support?

I paid so much for my software, and when I needed help, there's no help? seriously? the only help adobe has is community help? helps from the customers to customers? where is their technical support? where is the phone for help? where is the chatline help?

A common cause of frustration is not paying very close attention to product names, for example mixing up Photoshop and Photoshop Elements. If you say the wrong product you end up in the wrong place. Sounds as if you did that with the Chat. Details really matter, even though it is frustrating, because you need to reach the right team.
But we can often help here. A lot of people hang around just for that purpose, and we're a bit baffled when people don't seem to want our help.
You ask "How do I get help when everybody got their own problem and I have mine?"
Same as everyone....You start by describing your problem in detail - we can't start until you do. Be sure to include
- the full product name and version
- the operating system
- what is happening
- what you expect to happen instead
- any error messages in full

Where is Photoshop CS4 Help???

Where is the Photoshop Help for CS4? When I click on Help/Photoshop Help I get a browser opening up to some "community" crap. Community is fine but I DIDN'T CLICK FOR COMMUNITY. I'm at work and working against the clock and when I click on Help I need the Help! This is outrageous. Someone please tell me I'm wrong and I can install in-product help somehow.

Problem is you cannot really get to the local help files unless you unhook the machine from the network and have then no email, no browsing, no forums, no contact with the surrounding world. So that is really not an option if you are on a broadband that is always connected. Unless you set Photoshop itself to stay offline (see below).
Problem also is that you don't really get to the Help files by choosing Help in the application but you get to the communal Help and have to click yet once more at link in upper righthand corner (really not all that visible either) to get to the actual Help files.
Problem also is you cannot search the Help files and only find results for CS4 and Photoshop (or whichever other CS4 application you are searching fro Help for) and from the Help files - you get all kinds of other results searching the Help files. Unless you go offline.
Even if you bookmark the page as mentioned above, you are unable to search the Help texts only. The search is too wide and does not restrict itself to for instance Photoshop CS4 only. It also gives you results for CS2 and other versions... and also for Lightroom, the Layers Magazine and other stuff.
So, Help from inside a CS4 application does presently not work the way you expect it and it is really hard to drill down to only the area you are looking for to find any information for what you looked for in the first place.
Pressing F1 (as mentioned above) only lowers the intensity of the light of the display - it does not take you to the Help files.
It might be a new way to access Help. Problem is it doesn't really work all that well presently. The idea to have the most actual Help files online is fine. If you ever get to those texts... I sure never do no matter which tricks I try.
Presently one alternative is to download the pdf help-file and search within that. The rest is presently quite "broken" as I see it. Unless you set Photoshop CS4 to stay offline (read on).
To set Photoshop CS4 to keep offline is not all that easy to find the option for. Go to Window, Extensions, Connection. Click the dropdown arrow in the dialog that opens and choose Offline options. Tick Keep me offline and click OK. Only then will you be able to browse the Helpfiles locally on your machine.

PSE10 - How to get the online help on PCs with no Internet Access ?

Hello,
Our company has bought several licences of Photoshop Elements 10 and would like to package the installation in order to be able to install it with SCCM (formelly called SMS) on PCs.
The issue we've got is that the PCs in our company don't have Internet access, so Users can't, after the installation, download the help online... and since there is no offline help included, that means they don't have any help at all.
Can you let us know where the help in question is copied when it is downloaded, so that our packaging team will be able to download those files from a PC with Internet Access and then add them in their package so that our Users will be able to read the Help (F1) even if they don't have Internet access ?
Thanks a lot for your reply

yes you can do that by changing settings in Adobe Help Manager
Open Adobe Help.exe from the location : c:\program files (x86)\Adobe\Adobe Help
Then in the download prefrences section , you can select the products you wish to have offline help
In the updater section select manually
In the local content section : select the product and click UPDATE
when the offline help is downloaded, then in the general section, select Yes (this will make the local help default)
Now if you can go offline, and press F1 within the program , it will open the local help
Hope it helps !!

Cannot find CS6 offline help file

Hi,
When I try to opne the Dreamweaver CS6 help file by clicking on help in the help menu or F1 Dreamweaver opens the site http://helpx.adobe.com/de/dreamweaver/topics.html but not the offline help file. I can see that the Adobe help applcation gets started but it terminates after a few seconds. How can I open the offline CS6 help file? Why idoes Adobe help application terminates after a few seconds? Thank you for your help.
Regards

The answer above is not quite what the first post asked.
In many parts of CS6 - like setting up a site for instance, there is a help button that does not work if you are offline. Local internet services in my part of the world are rubbish at best and hopeless at worst, so it is not always possible to get on line help. This does not help the working day at all.
I have an installation of CS5.5 and when I click on a help link within the program, it finds my offline help files and displays the correct help for the topic.
I just installed CS6 for the first time on a new PC expecting the same. There appears to be no offline help available, nor can I see any way to install it.
After a major search operation on the adobe website, I did find two pdf help files for CS5, one of which has some help for CS6, but not a lot, and another that contains the same help + 20 or so pages for the creative cloud version, which is of no use to me. For a program that cost a vast amount to purchase, removing the built in help is not what I expected, though I am not at all surprised.
So is there a way to set up offline help without having the pdf file always open just in case? Or are we stuck with a no help system?

How to add offline help to Acrobat X deployment using Customization Wizard

We've run into the issue of users being unable to access Online Help described in http://kb2.adobe.com/cps/888/cpsid_88831.html. We use a proxy server for user web authenticationa and filtering so we can't avoid this.
I'd like to know if there's a way to add the offline help to our customized deployment Transform using the Customization Wizard. Has anyone installed the Adobe Community Help Client this way?

The instructions in the admin guide are better: http://www.adobe.com/go/acrobatitinfo.
You can use the Wiz to deploy the PDF Help version. You'll have to run the JS locally to hook up the menu.
