Why "Adobe [InDesign, AI, PS...] CC" and "Adobe [ditto] CC (2014)"

Why does my Control Panel show that I have two versions of Adobe CC's installed on my Win 8.1 (Pro-64) PC? Different version numbers and different file sizes. The Windows "Metro-tile" for InDesign starts Version 9.0 but opening an InDesign file from Explorer starts version 10.0. How do I resolve this? THank you

Adobe released new versions of the Cloud products instead of updating the existing versions (like the plan was supposed to be).  So you now have the original and the new versions of their Cloud products.  You can feel free to delete the originals though you might want to hang onto them for awhile to make sure you do not need them still (some folks have found they do for version matters).

  • Why Adobe Photoshop CC 2014 15.2.2 doesn't understand a format png?

    Technical specialists HEY! I address to you, explain to me why Adobe Photoshop CC 2014 15.2.2 anything doesn't understand the png format?????

    Hi Jack,
    Is it happening with a specific png file or with all the png files.
    Can you try to download a sample png file and then try to open it up in Photoshop.
    Where are these files located on an internal drive or external drive?
    Thank you for posting on Adobe Forums.

  • Why does InDesign ignore so many Adobe suite conventions?

    What is this insanity? Why would InDesign throw out things that have been established through all their other major apps, not to mention most apps on the planet? This is horrific, I can't see why this garbage is the "industry standard". It's like trying to use a Mac when you're used to a PC -- standard keyboard shortcuts totally missing, others made more-complicated for no rational reason, etc. Just an absolutely terrible experience.
    So far, it:
    -- Uses different keyboard shortcuts for many basic functions, matching neither Illustrator OR Photoshop (stupid)
    -- Basic functionality like placing a picture function differently than Illustrator OR Photoshop (stupid).  For example where I click to place it I can't seem to get to snap to a guide, and there's two types of drag/stretch, which is completely counter-intuitive and just awful. This is for RESIZING A PICTURE. Basic functionality.
    -- Basic functionality of Photoshop and Illustrator doesn't even exist.   For example, a keyboard shortcut to "show all document" in Illustrator, as well as Photoshop, doesn't even exist in InDesign from what I can tell.
    Very very frustrating.

    Is it possible that you can't find what you want because you haven't searched for the information, read a book, viewed a video tutorial, or asked the quesion on this forum directly, without the angry attitude? We all are volunteer users here, helping one another because we've been helped by others who shared useful information and experience.
    For example if you search Google for "how can I show all active documents in indesign with a keyboard shortcut," without quotes, you'd have gotten some good pointers, and if you'd ask the same question here, you'd get good info, too.
    In the Window menu, under Arrange, there are options for separating tabbed, or combining independent, ID document windows. "Float" separates tabbed windows, and "consolidate" combines floating document windows. There are no default keystroke shortcugts for these operations on the Window menu, so you'd need to search Google for "how can I create custom InDesign keyboard shortcuts," without quotes. You could also search Google for "InDesign quick apply," without quotes, to learn how to type in commands you want, and execute them, without learning or creating multi-key shortcuts.

  • I am on a trial version of  InDesign in Creative Cloud and before I purchase need to know why and the files cannot be opened by others using CS6.  Isn't Cloud compatible with CS6 design software?

    Industry standard files such as JPEG are compatible with many brands/versions of programs
    Proprietary files such as those created by InDesign are often not backwards compatible, due to new features in newer program versions
    This is not unique to Adobe... MS Word DOCX files are not backwards compatible with earlier versions of MS Word

  • Something is gone in Indesign menu. I dont know why, but the «textwrap» is gone and «stroke». How can I fix this?

    Something is gone in Indesign menu. I dont know why, but the «textwrap» is gone and «stroke». How can I fix this?

    When you switch active Extension Set or enable/disable extension(s), Extension Manager will create/update PluginConfig.txt. InDesign will read this file at launch to determine which extensions (plug-ins) should be loaded or not. If this file doesn't exist, InDesign will load all extensions. Also complicated dependency relationship exists among extensions. I am not sure how these extensions ran into incorrect state.
    If sometime you have to use Extension Manager, you have to reset the state BEFORE launch it. Otherwise Extension Manager will recreate this file based on incorrect database records and file state.
    1. Delete "Macintosh HD/Library/Application Support/Adobe/Extension Manager CS6/Configuration/DB/ExMan.db".
    2. Delete all files in  "Macintosh HD/Library/Application Support/Adobe/Extension Manager CS6/EM Store/InDesign CS6"
    3. Delete all files in  "Macintosh HD/Library/Application Support/Adobe/Extension Manager CS6/Mxi Flag/InDesign CS6"
    4. Move all files in "Macintosh HD/Library/Application Support/Adobe/InDesign/Version 8.0/nb_NO/Extensions/REMOVED" to the parent folder "Macintosh HD/Library/Application Support/Adobe/InDesign/Version 8.0/nb_NO/Extensions".

    Hi Noel,
    I'm wondering whether your comment addressed to Lmono was intended for me Tmono.
    You ask: "So why didn't you provide the same?"
    It just didn't occur to me to do so.
    My intent was to report that there was at least one other user encountering a similar problem.  It occurred to me that Adobe might be interested in determining the scale of a problem which causes one of  their best known products to fail to run quite so completely after a clean install 
    I also see that I misreported the OS I'm running - its Windows 8.
    If there is further information I can provide which might be helpful in determining a solution, if someone could be specific about what would be helpful, then I will try to respond appropriately.
    Perhaps the following from the event log:
    Faulting application name: Photoshop.exe, version: 15.1.0.148, time stamp: 0x53d97a8f

    The X230 has Intel HD 4000 graphics support built in to the processor.  Windows was pretty stubborn about refusing driver updates, but I just managed to get drivers from the Intel site to install and Photoshop is now running, so hopefully I need not try your patience any further.
    In case anyone else has a similar problem and stumbles on this the way to install the driver that worked was to:
    - download the zip version of the generic driver from Intel
    - use the 'have disk' option in the windows dialog to install the driver - other paths in the UI did not work with windows refusing to install the driver.

  • 3 versions of Adobe Photoshop on my computer Adobe PS (64 bit) and Adobe PS CC 2014 and Adobe PS CC

    I'm new to all of this CC business.  Can anyone tell me why there are 3 versions of Adobe Photoshop on my computer Adobe PS (64 bit) and Adobe PS CC 2014 and Adobe PS CC. Thanks,

    They are different versions and provided to offer a maximum level of compatibility in case anyone uses plug-ins or peripherals that may not be compatible with the latest 2014 version. Feel free to remove unneeded/ unwanted stuff if you don't fall into that category. Otherwise just leave everything in place - uninstalling and potential reinstalls could make more of a mess than freeing up a gigabyte on your harddrive may be worth...
