Where is Version Cue CS5?

Where is Version Cue CS5? Does Adobe discount its development?

We have been told Collabnet's Subversion and Zennaware's Cornerstone were both recommended substitutes to VC but have no luck on getting them to work.
We took the last day before Xmas to try for a clean start with CS5 but it has been a very frustrating experience. It does seem that either there is a component missing or not even a commercial "easy and clean" solution like Cornerstone is way to complex for a non-Torvalds user.
We did manage to install both Subversion as well as Cornerstone but there was no way we could get Adobe Drive to connect to the repositories we created in our server.
Neither Collabnet's (programmers' style) documentation, or Cornerstone or even Google shows no mention to "anything Adobe" (Bridge, Drive, VC…) and Adobe continue to keep us in the blank about how to proceed now.
Among some of the things that came up is the question on how will all CS5's applications see the "VC"'s Status (that shows it is checked-out, synchronized…). Will Bridge take full knowledge of any of this non-Adobe version control systems?
Doesn't Adobe have a step-by-step guide to help its users go through this process? There are so many steps involved that it does seem Adobe not only did stop its own versioning app but it also does not want to be integrated in any versioning system intended for use by regular users (designers, your core users).  Am I the only VC user in the planet that is not a Linus Torvalds in designers' skin?
We want to be able to migrate to CS5 but, considering all our assets are inside VC 3 we need to be able to continue using some versioning solution.
In the meantime I hope you have a Merry Christmas.

  • CS4 upgrade to CS6: where did Version Cue go?

    Ok, please pick up your jaw and clear out the cobwebs. Yes, I'm moving from CS4 to CS6. Searching has drawn no results, and guess-and-click is killing time. How does CS6 version files? Is there a utility to get CS4 Version Cue projects into CS6?
    I work in a small team, so basically, how does CS6 help us to work together?

    Version Cue is dead. You need to look into commercial third-party management solutions like a Sharepoint server.

  • Version Cue is enabled in Acrobat 8 but Save a Version is grayed out

    What could cause this?

    Not many Version Cue users. You should ask in the Version Cue section of the Creative Suite forum where the Version Cue engineers can answer questions.

  • Can I use both CS4 and CS5 separately so as to use Version Cue ?

    I am thinking about buying CS5 to keep up to date.
    I cannot do without Version Cue which is only CS4.
    Can I buy the upgrade and run them to take advantage of both ?

    Yes, you can run both CS4 and CS5 simultaneously, however, you must first launch CS5, then launch CS4. I don't know much about Version Cue or whether it would still work in a CS4/5 workflow, but you could always try the 30-day CS5 Trial as a test.

  • I am trying to download CS5.5, which I purchased. But I can only find the upgrade software to download. Where is the non-upgrade version of CS5.5???

    I am trying to download CS5.5, which I purchased. But I can only find the upgrade software to download. Where is the non-upgrade version of CS5.5???

    There is no upgrade version.  The serial number that you use dictates whether or not the software is treated as an upgrade.  If you purchased it as an upgrade then the serial number you have is an upgrade serial number and that will require you to provide proof that you qualify ro install/use the upgrade.

  • Please keep Version Cue for CS5

    I hope you will keep it

    Adobe Drive 2.1 supports connections to the Version Cue CS4 Server,  or a CMIS compatible DAM system. So, you have two choices if you want to  use it with CS5 authoring applications that are integrated with Adobe  Drive 2.1:
    1) Purchase a CS4 suite that has Version Cue CS4 server  and install it. You can use the migration plug-in that comes with it to  migrate data from your CS3 to the CS4 server, and then connect to it  via Adobe Drive 2.1
    2) Purchase a CMIS enabled DAM system. In this  case, you'd have to use the Version Cue CS3 Server export features to  export the head files to your file system, then import those into the  DAM system via Adobe Drive 2.1. Keep in mind this would not include  earlier versions, or version comments, etc; just the current version of  all documents.

  • Will installing a CS5 trial fix the version cue errors from CS4?

    Hi, I was wondering if installing a trial version of CS5 would fix the version cue errors from CS4.
    If not, does anyone know a good download of the version cue files? They have all dissappeared from my computer after running the cleanup script and the problem still persists =(

    Afterr months of pain and one ephiphany later, i have a simple solution to the issue.
    Go into the common files, adobe drive, version cue folder, and drag the files into the recycling bin =)
    So theres no need to install cs5 =D
    Hope this can help others who still have this issue.

  • Where can I buy CS5/5.5 Master Collection - Student Version?

    I can't afford the CS6 master collection nor the CC Cash Cow, so I wanted to buy an older version like cs5, which totally does the job. Any ideas where to get a cheap copy?

    Bestfiction please be aware that one of the restrictions of the education version is that the software license can not be transfered.  If you are looking for a used version of the software I would recommend looking for a full version of the software as opposed to an education version or upgrade version.
    Finally please also be aware we do have a Student and Teacher edition of Creative Cloud available at $19.99.  You can find more details at http://www.adobe.com/products/creativecloud.edu.html.  I understand that you do not wish to subscribe to the Creative Cloud but I did want to ensure you were aware of this offer as well.

  • InDesign Server and Version Cue

    Does anyone know where I can find javascript examples on how to get the InDesign server to talk to Version Cue?
    I need to access templates that are checked in to Version Cue, and I want to be able to check in generated PDFs
    I found a couple of functions in the object model, but I keep getting errors from the Version Cue client inside the InDesign server.

    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.

  • Problem opening PC files created on latest version of CS5 on Mac

    Hi.
    We´re a creative team in my company of four people, three mac users and one pc user. We recently all subscribed to the creative cloud so that we allways have the latest version of CS5, but there seems to be a problem with all files edited or created from the PC user.
    We've (mac users, all three) tried to open the files either created or edited by the PC user and we're told that this was created by a newer version and is not possible. Trying to understand why this message occure when all three macs where updated with creative cloud after the PC user.

    your title is confusing.
    the pc user is using cc 2014 apps, correct?
    the mac users are using cc 2014 apps, correct?
    if so, there should be no problem.
    if someone is using cs5 to try and open a file created by a cc 2014 app, you will see the problem you described.

  • Enabling version cue in Illustrator CS4?

    I've just installed CS4 Design premium and I haven't been able to find where to enable version cue. I thought it was in File Handling and Clipboard (where it was in previous versions), but there's nothing there.
    Your assistance would be appreciated. Thank you.

    The setting I think you're referring to in Illustrator no longer exists, Ihor. In CS4, the applications are always "Version Cue aware" -- and as Nini pointed out, you turn on and off the server itself in System Preferences.

  • Where do I find CS5 to download?

    I am a former customer and user of CS5. I have already payed for it, but since I have changed pc I need to
    install the suite all over again. Could you give an URL to where this version is available for download?

    if you follow all 7 steps you can dl a trial here:  http://prodesigntools.com/all-adobe-cs5-direct-download-links.html
    and use your serial number to activate.
    if you have a dl problem, you didn't follow all 7 steps

  • Anyone here found a good replacement for Version Cue?

    First, yes I realize this is a Photoshop forum. :-P I also posted this in the Version Cue section, but that forum hasn't seen any action in a month so I thought I'd pop on over here too. I'm assuming there are a few Photoshop users in here that use some kind of file management software.
    At my company we decided a while back we'd set up Version Cue, and of course it got put off. Today I learned Version Cue is getting ditched, and isn't even included in CS5. (http://www.adobe.com/products/versioncue/)
    So,  I'm wondering if any of you have moved on and found a good alternative  option. Version Cue has some very useful things to offer, in theory if  not in practice, so it would be great if there is something out there  that can accomplish the same things. If it's relevant, we use both Windows and Mac here at work.
    I've never used a digital assets manager so am open to ideas. I'm assuming that we'd want:
    • Versioning of documents (to roll-back to previous versions)
    • File storage
    • Sharing (perhaps a check-in, check-out system)
    • Commenting ability would be a bonus
    • Multiple users with variable permissions
    • Compatibility with Adobe Drive (allowing access to behind the scenes Adobe data)
    Anyone had any success, have any suggestions?
    Thanks!

  • 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?

    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?
