Why do you love Flash? aka. Why is Flash Adobe's best design tool?

Flash fan page. Why do you love Flash?
I'll go first:
Super intuitive and minimalist UI. Whether you need smooth lines and shapes or grid-snapped pixel graphics -- everything is always in vector until you export it to PNG. By combining its layers with its timeline, you get a sort of 3-dimensional layering system which boosts your productivity by a long shot. Then there's the whole animations / ActionScript universe if you're feeling frisky. The perfect design tool. Like they say: "Flash for graphics, Photoshop for photos, Illustrator for fine arts, and Fireworks for kids."

Why can't Adobe make Flash to control WMV?

I like to use Flash video but my company only allows WMV. IT actually wants people to use Silverlight. I would prefer continue using Flash. If Flash can control WMV, then I can continue using Flash for video purpose. I understand that Adobe wants people to buy Flash Media streaming server, but why can't Adobe just allow Flash to control WMV in a progressive download mode?
Any 3rd party extension that allows this?
Thanks,

There isn't - to my knowledge - any way of playing a WMV in flash, and this has nothing to do with the streaming server. If you buy the streaming server, you still can't use WMV. Its not built in to the player.
WMV is owned by Microsoft, and would need to be licensed ($$) to be included in any plug-ins not also owned by Microsoft.
H.264 (the standard of online video) is open, and usable without cost. Not only can you play any H.264 content with the flashPlayer, you can also play it with Silverlight, and Quicktime.

Why does not Adobe flash player for iPad ,This is a very big problem

Why does not Adobe flash player for iPad ,This is a very big problem ,I do not know why Apple is so Popular

but Adobe is, in fact, continuing to update Flash for Android.
Only essential bug and security fixes. No new feature updates have been released for 2 years.
Of course we have those who wish fervently that the lack of Flash supprt will damage Apple severely and obsess about it all the time.
I thought they'd realised it was a lost cause ages ago... they mostly seem to have disappeared from this forum, at least...

VB6 - can't save a project with flash.ocx control - why won't Adobe fix?

After a full day of research, this seems to be an ongling problem for at least a year now.   VB6 developers who have gone in to do maintenance on their applications that call flash.ocx are finding that they can no longer save their projects because of some change that was introduced by Adobe in the release following flash10e.ocx. In another post here http://forums.adobe.com/message/2931807#2931807 a work around is given of uninstalling flash and installing any version on or before 100452. Because the applications still run fine until the developer tries to make a change and save the VB6 project, the scope of this problem has probably not been fully realized. For this reason, this issue will likely only gain momentum in the future.
I spent the morning contacting several people at Adobe and I discovered the only way apparently to get support for this issue is to open a "web case".   From further research, what I understand a "web case" costs around $200 and with that price there is nothing telling me what comes with a "web case". I mean, if I were to buy one, would the problem be fixed or would they research it and say "I am very sorry but we are not going to fix that".   If there is a guarantee that the problem will be fixed, then can Adobe establish a pool where the $200 cost can be shared by everyone who has the issue?   That couldn't be more than a buck or two each because if you google this problem "System Error &H80004005 using flash.ocx" you will find about 5 pages of people reporting the problem.
Microsoft reports that a System Error &H80004005 error can normally be fixed by chaning the OCX in this manner:
http://support.microsoft.com/kb/223152
Sounds like Adobe made a slight change to the flash.ocx in the release following 100452 that removed the couple of definitions descibed by Microsoft in the URL above. All of Microsoft's suggestions for the developer using the bad OCX call fail (simply adding a line to the OCX:
InitCommonControls(void)
, however, since the problem (and the answer) is locked deep inside the flash.ocx source code, only Adobe can resolve it. Let's hope someone reads this and takes action.   In advance - please and thank you Adobe.

There's little chance anyone from Adobe will see your posting here, though they do on occasion find their way here for reasons unknown. What you might try is to submit a bug report. Going that route at least puts it into a system that requires it to be processed... whether or not the processing will lead to a solution that helps you is indeterminable from this end.

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 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..."?

Do you love iphoto, have orginization tricks?

The only thing I miss about my PC and hate about the Mac is iphoto. I find orginization of my events cumbersome. I really dislike making albums and only do that if I am going to make a photo book, need a place for "pictures to print" or am going to use the album for monething, like transfer that group of pictures to my iphone.
I miss having a folder that I can put sub folders in such as a folder called, for example "My baby" with 12 subfolders for month 1 -12.
So, do any of you LOVE iphoto and why? (Did you ever use a PC?)
I am also having issues organizing events, which is what I have decided works the best for the way I choose to organize. I just don't want events and albums for everything.
I need my events organized alphabetically. Yes, I go under view and ask my events to be sorted accendingly by title, but does that work? Not always. Anyone have any suggestions.
Lastly, for any of you that dislike iphoto, what else do you use for your photo's? I can't imagine professional photographers who use a Mac love iphoto.
Thanks for all the help you can provide me!
S

I'm with Larry on the whole "if you don't like it don't use it" thing. It's not compulsory and - like any app - it's not for everyone. But if you "dislike making albums" then you're not really using iPhoto and so it will always seem limited. That's a bit like only using a web browser and complaing that your computer is limited...
And this is not an iPhoto versus PC thing. It's the difference between using a databse for data - that is, and app specifically attuned to the requirements and possibilites of photographs and one that doesn't know the difference between a photo, a song or a letter to your mom, and treats them all the same.
Files-in-folders is a very limited way of organising anything. What do you do with files that belong in two or three places? Take a snap of your dog and your cat. Does it go in the dog folder? The Cat one? Organising on time seems basic enough, but once you've been doing it for 10 years you find yourself trying to remember what year that X was - 2005? 06? 04? and then there's a lot of rooting around in folders looking at icons. Add in the number of photos involved - it doesn't take very long to get past 50k - and the search gets more difficult all the time.
Then of course there are all the other things - non-destructive processing, OS integration and so on - that you miss by using a file manager to organise your photos.
Here's a canned answer I offer to demonstrate some of the possibilities of iPhoto.
I use Events simply as big buckets of Photos: Spring 08, July - Nov 06 are typical Events in my Library. I use keywords and Smart Albums extensively. I title the pics broadly.
I keyword on a
Who
What
Where basis (The When is in the photos's Exif metadata). I also rate the pics on a 1 - 5 star basis.
Using this system I can find pretty much find any pic in my 50k library in a couple of seconds.
So, for example, I have a batch of pics titled 'Seattle 08' and a typical keywording might include: John, Anne, Landscape, mountain, trees, snow. With a rating included it's so very easy to find the best pics we took at Mount Rainier.
File -> New Smart Album
set it to 'All"
title contains Seattle
keyword is mountain
keyword is snow
rating is 5 stars
Or, want a chronological album of John from birth to today?
New Smart Album
Keyword is John
Set the View options to Sort By Date Ascending
Want only the best pics?
add Rating is greater than 4 stars
The best thing about this system is that it's dynamic. If I add 50 more pics of John to the Library tomorrow, as I keyword and rate them they are added to the Smart Album.
In the end, organisation is about finding the pics. The point is to make locating that pic or batch of pics findable fast. I don't believe that any of that would be possible with a file manager.
Finally, you have really only got two choices here: using the file manager or using a database. All of the database apps - iPhoto, Aperture, Lightroom, Picasa - all work in broadly the same way - yes, with different bells and whistles - but essentially the same.

Why when using Adobe Bridge, I apply a star rating, the rating does not show up in Photoshop Elements? [tags]

Why when using Adobe Bridge, I apply a star rating, the rating does not show up in Photoshop Elements. I use Elements as my organizer and Bridge to view as it is much more user friendly. Anyone any solutions??

Most likely you have set the wrong file as the external editor. You don't want the obvious one; that's just a link to the welcome screen. Go back and choose this one, which is hidden away inside the folder Support Files:

Three things you can try:
1. Clean the superdrive with a proprietory CD/DVD lens cleaner that uses tiny brushes.
2. Perform an SMC reset:

Why won't Adobe reader no longer let me view previously download (from Safari) pdf's? I am running OSX 10.8.5 and have uninstalled and reinstalled latest version of Reader?

Why won't Adobe reader no longer let me view previously download (from Safari) pdf's? I am running OSX 10.8.5 and have uninstalled and reinstalled latest version of Reader. I get this error message "Adobe Reader could not open 'OD Test Bed Proposals_0.pdf' because it is either not a supported file type or because the file has been damaged (for example, it was sent as an email attachment and wasn't correctly decoded)." I have tried changing the 'open with' options too. Thanks

Try this:
Go to: Mac HD/Library/Internet Plug-ins
Trash the AdobePDFViewer.plugin and AdobePDFViewerNPAPI.plugin files
Empty the trash
Relaunch Safari. You can now download undamaged PDFs.

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:

Why won't Adobe Media Encoder export WMV?

I am using Adobe CS6 Design Standard with Adobe Media Encoder, and I'm trying to export video files to WMV using the Encoder. I'm am running Windows 8 and for some reason the option to export to WMV does not come up for me. I only get four options of formats, while online it says I should have many more. This is a full version of CS6 that I bought and paid for, and every program is up to date.

Can I just buy the converter plugins or do I have to buy premiere pro or after effects?

The formats and codecs available for export through Adobe Media Encoder differ depending on what Adobe applications you have installed. The vast majority depend on the video applications, After Effects or Premiere Pro, being installed.
