Why and how does Adobe Store's policy deliberately impede Least Developed Countries from developing?

Hi there,
My name is Dr Eric Mousset. I currently reside in Cambodia, having the privilege to serve as (international) Technical Assistant to support a Government project that is co-funded by the Royal Government of Cambodia and the World Bank, and purposed to Higher Education Capacity and Quality Improvement.
My mission implies conducting a survey on skills demand by employers and skills supply by Higher Education Institutions, in order to better inform further policy development.
Among the expected policy outcomes: a more effective alignment between skills supply and job market needs. 
Among the desired policy impacts: providing the Cambodian economy with the HR skills that are required for its growth and diversification.
I am impressed by the combined capabilities of Adobe Acrobat XI Pro and Adobe Forms Central. And until this morning it was on top of my shortlist of surveying tools.
Unfortunatley, while attempting to upgrade to FormsCentral's "Plus" plan, I have received the following reply from Adobe:
Unsupported Country
Thus here is my question:
Why and how does Adobe Store's policy deliberately impede Least Developed Countries from developing?
Yours sincerely,
Dr Eric Mousset

Hi;
I can't speak to the business decisions that lead to which countries we enable purchasing subscriptions in the store, but I can guarantee you that it is not to impede anyones development. 
A credit card with an address in any of the supported countries can be used for purchasing the subscription, this has enabled many to get around the issue, but that is the only way to subscribe.
Thanks,
Josh

  • Why (and how) is Adobe preventing me from re-installing Flash Player?

    I found a copy of the installation program for version 10.1 on another computer and transferred it to this one, but when I tried to run it, I got a message from Adobe telling me to download the latest version.  DUH!!  The latest version won't work on this computer!  WHY are they doing this?  I'm also wondering HOW they're doing this.  Did they put some hidden files on my hard drive when I went to this web site?  Talk about invasive!  I finally find a copy of the version I need, no thanks to Adobe, and then they actually prevent me from using it!  What am I supposed to do now?  I have programs that won't run anymore, and Adobe has not only been inaccessible and unsupportive, they're actually preventing me from fixing the problem!  This is the most user-unfriendly company I've ever had the misfortune of dealing with. 

    What OS do you use?
    What browser?
    Without that information, no one can help.

  • Where and how does iPhoto store photos?

    I have iPhoto 2009 and tens of gigabytes of photos, maybe 10,000 in all.
    Currently, I have been dumping these photos into my Pictures folder, then importing them into iPhoto. My questions are:
    1) What's getting stored, and where?
    2) Is this the best strategy?
    3) What about duplicates? Do I just delete them from my iPhoto library, and leave them in my Picture folder? For example, I have hundreds of shots that I created as both RAW and JPEG. That's what I want to keep on disk, but I don't need duplicates in iPhoto.
    4) How do I go about organizing my photos? Should I have a maximum number of photos in a given folder? And how should I organize all this in iPhoto?
    I know these seem like stupid questions. I'm not a stupid user; I have 25 years of experience. I'm just looking for best practice suggestions and a deeper understanding of what is stored and where, and where I will hit performance problems.

    the pictures in my Pictures folder have been copied into iPhoto, (into an enormous invisible folder somewhere)
    Nothing enormous or invisible.
    Since iPhoto 7 (iLife 08) the old iPhoto Library Folder is now a Package File. This is simply a folder that looks like a file in the Finder. The change was made to the format of the iPhoto library because many users were inadvertently corrupting their library by browsing through it with other software or making changes in it themselves.
    Want to look inside? Go to your Pictures Folder and find the iPhoto Library there. Right (or Control-) Click on the icon and select 'Show Package Contents'. A finder window will open with the Library exposed.
    Standard Warning: Don't change anything in the iPhoto Library Folder via the Finder or any other application. iPhoto depends on the structure as well as the contents of this folder. Moving things, renaming things or otherwise making changes will prevent iPhoto from working and could even cause you to damage or lose your photos.
    How the files are stored: You have three core folders
    Originals are the photos as they were downloaded from your camera or scanner.
    (ii) Modified contains edited pics, shots that you have cropped, rotated or changed in any way.
    (iii) Data holds the thumbnails the the app needs to show you the photos in the iPhoto Window.
    See? No secrets.
    I can be confident that they'll be backed up with Time Machine,
    Yes, or any other Back Upmutility you choose
    and they will remain in their original format (unless I edit within iPhoto),
    Yes, as you can see from your look inside iPhoto
    and, if I later choose a different photo management program, photos in the iPhoto library are still discrete files that I can copy using the Finder?
    Yes, though the more correct way would be to export via iPhoto. Why? Because this will allow you to write any metadata you add in iPhoto to the files.
    Regards

  • Why and how does game data get backed up?

    I noticed angry birds data was present in icloud management?where is the option to back this data up and what purpose does it serve?

    A backup of your device to iCloud is like a full (actually partial) backup of a computer.  By default, every file (except certain types) is backed up.  This includes the game apps and whatever data files are included with them.  If you go into the manage storage window in the iCloud settings, you can turn off specific apps/data.  A few of the apps are first displayed, but you can press the button to display all the apps.  This gives you a complete list of all your apps.  They should be all "on" by default.
    what's the purpose?  If your device has a glitch and must be reset to factory default, you can then restore it to it previous state, assuming you set it to back up all apps.  I believe this won't include things like music, video, etc. since these can be redownloaded from the iTunes.
    Hopefully I haven't misunderstood your question.

  • Why and how is iTunes changing the genre?

    Mac OSX 10.9.4
    iTunes 11.3
    I have many songs in my iTunes account. I have found that if I modify the genre to my liking, it doesn't stay that way. For some reason after a period of time it changes/reverts to another genre. Here is the funny part. If I click on the info button, the genre that I modified it to, is still listed, however when it is grouped...it is grouped into another genre.
    To fix it, I have to go into each genre, find each song incorrectly categorized, hit info, and save (I don't even have to change anything)...and it goes back to where I wanted it.
    Why is this? Since my categorization was saved, why and how does it get re-grouped? I thought that it changed whenever I had an update or closed iTunes, but this grouping changes at any given time.
    It is getting tiresome having to resave everything.
    How can I stop this from happening? If the goal is to allow me to customize the genres, why won't it stick?

    Go to iTunes > Preferences > Store and turn off
    Show iTunes in the Cloud purchases
    Share details about your library with Apple
    On any iOS device go to Settings > Music and turn off
    Show All Music
    Close and reopen iTunes and/or reset the device and you should see your version of the metadata for each track rather than the original store data.

  • Hi, I have purchased an audio book on iTunes from an iMac and it does not show up on the cloud so I can't download it on my iPhone. Does anyone know why and how I can proceed to transfer the audio book purchase?

    Hi
    I have purchased an audio book from iTunes with my iMac.
    Now I wanted to listen to it on my iPhone so I proceeded to transfer the purchase and looked for the book in the purchased section of the store in the iTunes on my iPhone but it did not show up.
    Does anyone know why and how I can transfer the audio book purchased on my iPhone so I can listen while away from the desk?
    Thank you,
    Sanya

    Can you find the audio book by using the Search feature on the iPod?
    Do you have the right boxes checked to sync the audio book to the iPod?
    iTunes: Syncing media content to iOS devices and iPod
    Note you have to check the boxes in Books pane for the iPod in iTunes to sync books in general and another box to sync Audio Books.

  • SONGS THAT I HAVE PURCHASED APPEAR TWICE ON MY PHONE. DOES ANYBODY KNOW WHY AND HOW TO EDIT THIS PROBLEM?

    Songs that I have purchased on Itunes appear twicw on my Iphone. Does anybody know why and how do I edit or remove one copy of the song?

    I have had two similar events with my Gen4 iTouch. An album was purchased thru iTunes with my iTouch. When I sync'd it with my MAC Mini (OSX Lion) each song that was included in the purchased album appeared twice on the iTouch but only once on the MacMini. Deleting the duplicates on the iTouch did not resolve the issue. With each sync they were reinstalled. The only way I could get around this was to delete the album/songs on the MAC, elect to move them to trash then re-sync the iTouch to remove them. Afterwards I was able to re-download the purchase on the MAC then sync the iTouch. This resolved the issue.
    The second event was different but the result was the same: An album was purchased thru iTunes but this time thru iTunes Store on the MAC mini. When I sync'd the iTouch there were 2 entries for each song purchased but this time there was an entry for the song itself AND an identical entry beneath it that looked similar to the play/pause sampling icon in iTunes when sampling a song prior to purchase. I am not using iCloud and I don not sync wirelessly on the iTouch. Again, all I could do was delete the purchase on the MAC Mini, sync the iTouch to remove them, re-load the purchase from iTunes and re-sync. This also resolved the issue but it makes me a bit nervous since I have a very large library. What is causing this?

    On my IPad 2 home screen, the mail app used to indicate the number of new messages with a number in a red circle, next to the app.  This has vanished, I think about the same time as when I upgraded to the new OS.  Does anyone know why and how to restore this feature? 

    Thanks.  While you were replying to my question, I went into notifications and figured

  • I use to administrate my DSL modem via an ip-address. When I enter it into FF8 I am asked where to save the file. Why and how can I prevent FF8 from doing that?

    I use to administrate my DSL modem via an ip-address. When I enter it into FF8 I am asked where to save the file. Why and how can I prevent FF8 from doing that?
    And now anytime I am entering an ip-address I am asked if I want to download the file.

    It happens when the modem server doesn't send the file as text/html, but with another MIME type.<br />
    I tried the index.html addition in case the server might send that file as text/html.<br />
    If your DSL modem has a support website then you can try to ask there for advice about how to configure the modem server.
