Why can't Adobe offer Premiere Pro (and its other software) as a perpetual licence and via the cloud

It seems clear to me some like the cloud and others don't. Why? Customers have different requirements. Each approach offers attractions to different people. A company ignores its customers requirements at its peril. You just have to remember VHS vs BetaMax - BetaMax was far superior but it is no more. Maybe not a great comparison but the point is even great products fail. By offering both Adobe would secure a wider and happier customer base.

Very true
I am in the UK, we have HD TVchannels but still a mass of SD ones.
4k or whatever will be a long time coming and it will be on satelite first but that is very far off
That said my camcorders/DSLR's all handle AVCHD HD so no expense there for qute a while
My PC is fast enough and I have three cloned boot drives so apart from upgrades due to MOBO/CPU failures no expense likely here
So with all the above I reckon that as long as I do not have any problems that require re-installing the Adobe software then I am good for the next 10 years
10 years of not buying Adobe products
10 years of updating Edius, Hitfilm, or even subscribing to Lightworks (10 years at $60 per year, you do the math)
That is just me not buying
Oh to have so much money, I may even go to the F1 GP next year with all I will save unless they make that subscription only

  • Why can't I redownload Premiere Pro CC?

    I just bought a subscription to the Creative Cloud and I've downloaded all the apps I wanted except Premiere Pro. Before buying the subscription I had a trail version of Premiere Pro running on my mac which I deleted before downloading the Creative Cloud App. Premiere Pro shows up under the catagory "Your Apps" in which it tells me it is up to date however I don't have it installed.
    Whenever I try to redownload it from the app, in-browser download center, or even the trial version the Creative Cloud App opens and just does nothing.
    How can I redownload and reinstall the CC version of Premiere Pro?
    Additional notes:
    I have a 64-bit opperating system (yes, I've made sure)
    Adobe Application Manager is having similar problems
    Thanks for your help

    Hi Glen Case,
    Please try the following steps.
    Launch the Creative Cloud Desktop App.
    Sign out of it.
    Navigate to the location Main HD>Library> Application Support>Adobe>Caps
    Rename the "Caps" folder to anything else.
    Launch the application & see if that helps.
    Thanks

  • Why can't I install Premiere Pro?

    Creative Cloud wont download the Premiere pro App I paid for

    Hi,
    If you are on Windows, make sure you have a 64-bit OS. Premiere Pro won't install on a 32-bit OS.
    Else if you are getting any error while downlaoding, please tell us more details about the error.
    Thanks,

  • Why can't I get Premiere Pro CC to download onto my Mac?

    I joined Creative Cloud for college and had a discussion with a representative about my membership. First off I was suppose to be able to use CS6 (which I prefer) but can't without paying an additional amount per month.
    Now every time I go to download Premiere CC all it gives me is the loading screen then nothing happens. I have projects I need to get done and I'm starting to get pretty pissed off.

    You may buy CS6 as a standalone, pay once product

    I **think** you may also still buy CS6 in an education edition for much less money

  • Why can't Adobe Premiere Pro CC 2014 Time remap Audio and Video together?

    In case you didn't notice, my question is WHY.  I don't know why Premiere Pro can't do this.  From what I understand at the moment, the only way to time-remap audio in any way shape or form using Adobe software is through Adobe After Effects, which my computer has absolutely no chance of running ever.  I know how to do regular stretching of audio in both Audition and Premiere Pro, but apparently I can't time-remap audio using either of these programs.
    So why can't Adobe Premiere Pro time remap audio along with the video?  What's the reason that it can't?  It's a massive disappointment and would be very impressive to see accomplished in the future.  If it's possible to time remap audio and video together in After Effects, that's great and all, except for the fact that I can't use that program.  Why can't it be done in Premiere Pro and will it ever be possible in Premiere Pro?
    Also, will time remapping audio become possible in Audition someday?

    That sounds like a great idea.  File a Feature Request:

  • I just installed Adobe CC Premiere Pro and it continuously crashes!

    I just installed Adobe CC Premiere Pro and it keeps crashing.  I've tried creating a new project, opening an existing project -- nothing works.  I can start a new project and get as far as to import clips into the project window but the moment I try to play a clip or create a sequence from it, it crashes.  I'm running off a brand new laptop (Lenovo X1 carbon 3rd gen)  8Gb Ram, i5 processor, best of anything I could get on this specific machine.  Any thoughts??
    The files I'm opening with a new project are MP4 files from a gopro camera.  The existing project was a CS5.5 file that it attempted to update to CC -- it actually located all of the files fine and as soon as it gets to the workspace with everything laid out, it crashes.  Let me know if I can supply any more information. 

    I just posted Im having the same issue.
    Premiere Pro 2014.2 is crashing
    I love PPRO 2014 very much but, wrote an nasty gram to Adobe because each update seems to have issues.
    I have set my autosave to 5 min saves and each time I see it say AUTO SAVING I use it as a reminder to do a real save.
    I have a super system and it didn't use to crash like this every hour.
    Why not try it out for a year and do a major update vs little updates that have issues the last 3 times.
    I can't render either with the hardware setting, which did work for a year then, the latest update screwed that up.
    The Adobe Tech blamed it on Apple but, hey - it worked for a year until Adobes update.

  • Why remove .flv export from Premiere Pro CC 2014? And what's a good workaround?

    Why remove .flv export from Premiere Pro CC 2014? And what's a good workaround?

    OK, so you want to put it on your own web page. That's fine as long as you know how to create a web page.
    The next thing you have to decide is how big do you want the video to appear on the web page. Many people just post on YouTube and then embed the video into their web page. That way, the video can take advantage of all of the various sizes that YouTube provides.
    In any case, I suggest that you use H.264. But the data rate depends on the size of the file. If you are going to display it in HD, then you probably want to start at about 20Mb/s and go up or down from there. The required data rate depends on what you find acceptable, and that depends on the amount of movement in the video. For example, a talking head next to a white board explaining something requires a lot less bits to represent the image because less changes are taking place from frame to frame. If you use 10Mb/s for that, you might find 20Mb/s or more is required to make you happy if you shot a football game from the sidelines.
    I generally use settings that look like this image. If you have any questions as to why I choose these settings, feel free to ask.

  • Why can't I download Premiere and After Effects CC on my laptop?

    Why can't I download Premiere and After Effects CC on my laptop? I don't have the option for the Creative Cloud apllication on my menu bar as well. It launches Adobe Download Manager instead. Software like Photoshop and Illustrator CC are working fine?
    Thanks!

    If it doesn't show up your system doesn't support it. It's as easy as that. Refer to the system requirements for the applications.

  • Why is installation so complicated?  Why can't Adobe and Microsoft get their act together?

    I was offered an update to Flash Player.  Downloaded it but then was told I had to agree to the licensing agreement but it will not show me the agreement except for a few lines of it.  Why do you make things so complicated?  Explorer tells me there is a know compatibility problem with Adobe.  (I'm running a 32 bit Vista system.)  Why can't Adobe and Microsoft get their act together?

    I don't know what (exactly) your problem is, or what Microsoft has to do with it, but did you click the little checkbox left of "I have read and agree..."?

  • Why can't Adobe continue to support and create updates.....

    Why can't Adobe continue to support and create updates for MAC G5 OS X Tiger?
    I'm sure I'm not the ONLY owner and operator of this MAC machine. I'm finding it
    VERY frustrating how your comany, JAVA and Apple of just written this machine off.
    You know, MAYBE I'd be more understanding if this MAC product or ALL MAC
    products weren't so reliable. However, like many MAC users out there
    there's NOTHING wrong with my machine or my current programs OTHER than the
    simple fact I can no longer update Flash player or Java... all because
    my machine is no longer supported.
    WHY can't updates continue to be made? This way,ALL consumers are happy:
    those who feel it wasteful economically and ecologically to
    replace a computer with a NEW computer, and those who just like to have the latest
    and greatest tech toys.

    You can - click on the "Actions" link at bottom left of the post.
    As to the rest - nobody seems to like this forum, and what you're saying has been said on numerous occasions already.
    It's Adobe's fault for "buying in" this forum (sorry - "Social Business"  ) service, but it's Jive's fault for producing such a crappy solution in the first place.

  • Why can't i delete songs from older i-pod touch, delete feature greyed out and right click or holding control and clicking do not offer delete option

    Why can't i delete songs from older i-pod touch, delete feature greyed out and right click or holding control and clicking do not offer delete option in I-tunes. I've tried using both a Mac Book and PC with newer and older versions of I-tunes.

    It sounds like you are try to delete the songs by connecting the iPod to other than the computer from which the songs were synced. You can only delete songs synced to an an older iPod (pre iOS 5) by connecting the iPod to its syncing computer and unsync them.
    If you want to change syncing computers see:
