Why can I download and install CS6beta but the program does not activate???

Why can I download and install CS6beta but the program refuses to be activated on the idiotic grounds that either I am not connected to the internet or my computer clock is not showing the right time?  If in New Zealand we're not allowed to use the beta, why does Adobe not have the decency and courtesy of telling us so and why instead of feeding us with those stupid putoffs???    

I had a note from PS Pattie ; I can't find it here.  Anyhow, these were her questions and my answers:
Q:Did you download from this location?  http://labs.adobe.com/technologies/photoshopcs6/
A: Yes
Q:Did you select TRY and enter your Adobe ID?
A: I was then asked to "Sign in". I pressed the sign and got the following reaction:
Please connect to the internet and retry. Either your computer is offline or the clock on your computer is set incorrectly, causing a connection error.  An internet connection is required. Please connect to the internet or adjust your clock and try again.  If this problem persist, please contact Customer Support.  I did so and was told "This page is not available"
Q: Did you try to download again and install?
A:  Yes, three times – each time 1.71GB.  I tried many other devices; none worked.

  • Why can I download and install all of the Oracle ATS products for free?

    Why can I download and install all of the Oracle ATS products for free?  When I installed, I was not prompted for any licenses or to purchase anything.
    I want to know why this is possible and if there are plans to charge for it in the future?

    I don't know Oracle's ATS products specifically, but many of Oracle's products can be downloaded and used for free for learning purposes.
    Typically, if you intend to use the products commercially then you need to pay for a licence, otherwise you are using it illegally.
    This is usually described in the T&C's you agree to when you download the software.

  • I just downloaded and installed Adobe Reader X.  It does not print.  It is unbelievable to me!

    I just downloaded and installed Adobe Reader X.  It does not send the view to the installed printers.
    It is unbelievable to me that Adobe would broadcast a flawed product like this.

  • Recently, I can't get any sound from my game applications.  Sound works fine with video, streaming, etc, but not my game applications.  I've tried powering down and re-booting, but the sound does not return.  Can anyone help me?

    Have you got notifications muted ? Only notifications (including games) get muted, so the Music and Videos apps, and headphones, still get sound.
    Depending on what you've got Settings > General > Use Side Switch To set to (mute or rotation lock), then you can mute notifications by the switch on the right hand side of the iPad above the volume switch, or via control centre : swipe up from the bottom edge of the screen and it's the right-most of the 5 icons in the middle of it (if the icon is white then it's 'on', tap it to turn it grey and 'off'). The function that isn't on the side switch is set via control centre instead : http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4085

    I have an external firewire burner; it never shows on the desktop unless I insert a CD or DVD - that icon will then show (if I have my preferences set to show those on the desktop). Hae you checked in Disk Utility (Applications > Utilities) to see if it is listed under drives?

    What does the product developer say about system requirements? If it needs to be run from within Internet Explorer then you'll need to find a way to run Internet Explorer. Boot Camp or VM installation of Windows would be two options.
    But first check the product requirements.

  • After installing trial version the program does not start

    Hi everybody,
    I installed the CS 5.5 Trial on Windows 7. Everything was ok, so I started InDesign and said accept to the License Agreement. But the program does not start, the license window always opens again after clicking accept. Can anybody help me?
    Thanks!

    Make sure to run with full administrative privileges the first time you launch the progrrams. Otherwise the licensing stuff will not be able to kick in and verify our trial period.

  • My Firefox version is 13.0.1, I use Windows Seven 64-bit, when I click on Firefox, but the program does not run! But Firefox is seen in the list of Windows proc

    My Firefox version is 13.0.1, I use Windows Seven 64-bit, when I click on Firefox, but the program does not run! But Firefox is seen in the list of Windows processes, while Firefox does not run.
    I manually deleted Firefox from the list once I have Windows processing.
    And when I clicked on Firefox, Firefox will open quickly and easily.
    Firefox process in Windows Processes names list called "firefox.exe * 32" is.
    Please try to solve my problem, my problem is how to solve?

    Hi, are you saying that you start Firefox and it stalls -- you can see it in the Task Manager but it never displays -- but if you kill that process and start Firefox again it starts up properly that second time?
    If you look at the statistics available in the Task Manager's processes tab such as bytes read or other bytes, can you see whether Firefox is doing anything at all? ''Note: You might need to add columns if your Processes tab isn't set up to display statistics. You can do that from the View menu.''
    You might already have seen these troubleshooting articles. If not, does anything here help:

  • I connect my iPad to my PC and open iTunes, but the iPad does not show up in sidebar.  I want to sync. How do I do it?

    I have my PC on, then plug in my iPad (which is on) and open iTunes.  The iPad does not show up in the sidebar.  How do you get it to show up so that I can select the iPad and then configure the sync settings in each of the settings panes....hoping that these actually show up.
    In the manual it says "log in to your computer user account before connecting iPad".  I am the only user of this PC...does this mean some other user account.  I am confused.  I need "baby steps" to tell me how to do all this....very senior and just learning about this wonderful machine. I will very much appreciate your help.

    If you are the only user on your computer you probably don't have multiple user accounts set up and can disregard that.  If you are using iTunes 11 go to View>Show Sidebar.  Now see if your iPad appears under Devices on the left side when you connect it.  If it does, click on the name of your iPad on the left side and your iTunes sync settings options will appear in folders with tabbed headings to the right.
    If it doesn't appear on the left side, follow the troubleshooting steps shown in this article: http://support.apple.com/kb/TS1538.

  • I download and install updates, but the CC installer asks again- and again- and again

    Hi
    No matter how many times I download and install the updates that I want, the installer (a few hours later, or the next day) will indicate that I have some new updates to download. When I look, they are the updates that I downloaded the previous day, or a few hours earlier. In other words, the installer is not recognising my updates. Either that, or Adobe is coming up with an update every few hours… :-)

  • Installed xmms and xmms-imms, but the plugin does not show up?

    Hi All,
    I have installed xmms and xmms-imms. Then I have started xmms. Then I looked at the plugins (options->preferences->plugins->general plugins). There I see IRman, Joystick and Song change, but no imms.
    I see libxxmsimms in the plugin directory:
    # ls -l /usr/lib/xmms/General/
    total 160
    -rwxr-xr-x 1 root root 43896 Nov 16 20:15 libir.so

    -rwxr-xr-x 1 root root 58656 Jan 16 16:52 libxmmsimms.so
    When I start xmms I see the following messages in the console:
    [cedric@TV cedric]$ xmms
    libmikmod.so.3: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory
    Message: device: default
    My versions:
    Xmms 1.2.11
    [cedric@TV cedric]$ /usr/bin/immsd
    immsd: version 3.1.0-rc10 ready...
    What can I check to get imms recognised by xmms?
    Best regards,
    Cedric
