Why does Adobe continue to sell Master cs6 when its discontinued?

Why does Adobe continue to sell Master cs6 when they discontinued the suites and released Creative Cloud CC?

CS6 is not discontinued it is the last perpetual version of Adobe products and is still being marketed.  Adobe prefers you to join the cloud.  However Adobe knows many intelligent customers will not be joining their cloud.

  • Refresh DSV - why does it keep indicating it "Added" things, when its already been done? (repost from DW forum)

    There were a number of changes done and earlier I had used the "refresh" button in the DSV view, and the updates were reflected in the DSV.  Now, however everything should be updates, yet when I hit refresh, the dialog still comes up and list
    all the changes it did earlier as "Added".  What is going on here?
    Now however, all my tables, dimensions, relations etc are setup with no errors and the cube builds, processes and deploys without any errors, yet if I refresh the DSV, I still get the dialog that displays all the things that it "sees" as "Added".
     This is even after closing down BIDS and re-opening.
    Also, I wonder if this has something to do this this thread, since its concerning the DSV getting "confused"

    Hi Shiftbit,
    According to your description, you need to know why the dialog still comes up and list all the changes it did earlier as "Added" when there is nothing changed in the data source view, right?
    I have tested it on my local environment. We use the sample project AdventureWorks, we didn't make any modification on the DSV and click the Refresh button, and all the changes were list on Refresh Data Source View dialog. So as per my understanding, this
    is default settings. If we click the button, it will list all the changes from the date when you create this project.

  • Why does my html page have no pics when its uploaded?!

    Hey guys, so I have a website and a bunch of pages on it, they are all from a template I made, but now I am trying to create a seperate kind of page that is not based from the template and it is just an html file.
    it all works fine and dandy until I take a look on the internet on the site, all the images are not there! everything else works and looks great but it shoes no pics even though the page uses the exact same pics that other pages use!  so the pics are on my remote server but justdont work for this one page
    can you guys help me figure out why not and how to fix this?
    Thanks!

    ya I forgot to say that they never uploaded in the first place, because I did upload those pics but this is what it says in the dialogue box for those files:
    about_me.html - Put operation successful
    images\motowhipsmall.png - error occurred - An FTP error occurred - cannot put motowhipsmall.png.  Access denied.  The file may not exist, or there could be a permission problem.
    images\boostmaster_productions_banner.jpg - error occurred - An FTP error occurred - cannot put boostmaster_productions_banner.jpg.  Access denied.  The file may not exist, or there could be a permission problem.
    so it seems I don't have permission to put those files on and I dont know why

    The battery meter is really just an estimate
    However, you can calibrate it

  • Why does Adobe Download Assistant persistently reject my ID and password which have been in Adobe us

    Why does Adobe Download Assistant persistently reject my ID and password which have been in Adobe use for years?

    Yes, I'm able to login with my Adobe ID and password, and have done so for at least 15 years.  But the moment I use Adobe Download Assistant they're both rejected with "Error 100" without explanation.  I have tried to reset both on about 6 occasions over two days.  The rejection continues; no explanation.  In other words, I am refused a trial download of CS6 (pending later purchase).  I have had Photoshop since v3.0 and still have every version since then.  Frankly, Adobe has become a vast overfed amoebe with independently activated tentacles that are out of central control and disconnected from other parts of the empire.  This event has been happening to many other Photoshop loyalists, according to Google data, and it's becoming  more and more likely that I may abandon Photoshop altogether .  Meanwhile I'm continuing to use my CS5 and giving up any further attempts to acquire CS6.

  • Why does the document window in illustrator cs6 move to the far left when I reopen the file?

    why does the document window in illustrator cs6 move to the far left when I reopen the file?

    Hi John,
    thanks for the fast response.  cs5 remembered the window position.  I like having the window in the middle as I have a 27" monitor.  I just upgraded to cs6 yesterday and I'm sure it was remembering the window document position.  I think.  If i find out how to fix this, I'll post it here.
    And while I'm on the subject of cs6, why the f*** did adobe combine the stroke and swatches pallettes?  Now I forever have to click stroke and swatch tabs all day.  And I love the army and navy file icons of photoshop and illustrator.  I won't comment on Acrobat X.  ; (

  • Why does Adobe refuse to provide the latest version of Camera Raw (like my Canon 6d) for CS5?

    Why does Adobe refuse to provide the latest version of Camera Raw (like my Canon 6d) that could be supported in Photoshop CS5 or earlier?  Its like Adobe saying you want a Camera Raw for you Camera then buy CS6 which is insulting to your customers.

    Why does Adobe refuse to provide the latest version of Camera Raw (like my Canon 6d) that could be supported in Photoshop CS5 or earlier?
    Adobe's policy to to provide free updates (not upgrades) for currently shipping software, which means the current Photoshop CS6 and Camera Raw 7.x. Development on Photoshop CS5.x and Camera Raw 6.x stopped when Photoshop CS6 started shipping. While it may appear on the surface that's it's a ploy to force users to upgrade to the most recent version when getting a new camera, it's really a policy based on the technical issues of trying to provide backwards compatible software for application that are no longer being developed.
    Camera Raw is a plug-in for Photoshop and as such, it is dependent on the Photoshop SDK in which it loads...it's also dependent upon the system level APIs being used by the applications. Could Adobe keep upgrading old software? Yes, but it would be a technical nightmare.
    Your alternative is simply use the free DNG Converter if you want to use new cameras that weren't in existence when your old software was developed. Pretty simple really and it's not designed as insult to Adobe customers...it's actually an affirmative program to make sure current users are provided support.
    The problem of new camera support for old software is really a problem caused primarily by the camera companies spawning off new cameras whose file formats are undocumented and proprietary. If the camera makers adopted a standard file format that could be opened in standard applications (kinda like DNG) then tis problem would be mitigated. You really should place the lion's share of the problem at the feet of the camera companies...

    Why does Adobe update the Creative Cloud and not to software I purchased to the same level?

    See also: FASB revenue recognition GAAP
    To the best of my recollection, that is what the Adobe rep mentioned. If you look up that phrase, the top return in Google is a PDF file explaining how it works. Good luck understanding it even if you're a CPA.
    John Waller has added another link on that revenue law.
    To be clear, the accounting issue called GAAP for revenue recognition states that the way Adobe counts R&D and development costs are applied to a specific product version for that version's lifetime. So, all of the Photoshop CS6 perpetual license development cost are applied against the revenue produced by that specific version. Adobe is allowed to add bug fixes and maintenance updates, but no new features for the life of that version. And, yes, this sucks for several reasons not the least of which is that the engineers are forced to try to shove as much new stuff into the most recent version and any updates that can be done prior to the end of the quarter in which a version ships because after that date, new features can't be added.
    Generally accepted accounting procedures pretty much force Adobe into this accounting. Yes, there are other accounting methods that would mitigate this, and the subscription license is one such option. Since the subscription revenue os an ongoing stream, Adobe can add new features as functionality to subscription users. Unfortunately, the users of a perperual license can not get those new features and functionality, only new bug fixes.
    The bottom line is that sucscription users get the added advantage of getting new features and functionality while perperual license users do not. Yep...kinda sucks, but it is, what it is and it's not really Adobe's fault...the accounting regulations I believe actually came into enforcement because of the whole Enron scandle...
    I realize this sort of explanation is akin to talking about sausage making...nobody really want to know how sausage is made, they just want to eat it. Same deal with Photoshop users...nobody really want to know how Adobe has to do their accounting, but the realities dictate what Adobe can and can't do...
    BTW, this all has zero to do with state sales tax...although there my be state to state differences on whether a state charges tax for software. But that has zero to do with Photoshop development.

  • Why does Adobe implement new features half way?

    The new hover scrub with big thumbnails in icon view would be certainly useful if it was implemented in a way that works. As it is, it's useless. Unless your total footage is about ten clips, you end up with dozens or over a hundred clips with no way to sort them out, unless you love wasting time and you drag them all around in the order you want, which I'm sure very few people are willing to do.
    So why does Adobe bring in a new feature, even makes tutorials about it, when for most people is absolutely useless? I don't get it.
    Oh, and before you nag me about filing a feature request, don't. I already did it, and this is not something anyone should do. Feature requests should be for new ideas, not a crutch for Adobe to rely on to release new features half way, and then expect people to nag them about it to finish them.

    So I would have preferred a little more decency and for the Adobe Premiere team manager to say, we're not going to include this incomplete feature in CS6, we're going to get it right and include it in 6.5 or 7, in a way that people actually can take advantage of, because this is supposed to be a professional NLE, not a toy.
    Hi,
    I think what you meant to say is that you wish the team would have implemented sorting features before they added hover scrubbing. Hover scrubbing is a separate feature than Icon View, which has been in the product without sorting capability for years.
    I agree with you that sorting capability should have been added to icon view long ago, but that's no reason to hold back a cool feature like hover scrubbing to the UI.
    The other thing is that we as editors do not know what goes on behind the scenes during software development. There are a number of reasons why hover scrubbing made it into the interface before sort capability.
    Hover scrubbing might have been developed by another group, and key features important to Premiere Pro users were not yet added.
    There was not enough time to implement the feature, and other features took precedence.
    Implementing the feature broke 5 other things when it was added to the existing code.
    Implementing the feature causes the application to crash more frequently.
    Other reasons that are privy to software developers.
    Not saying that any of these things happened, but we cannot know. Honestly, there's not much more we can do as users can do but to request what we want, and how we want those things to work.

  • Why does Adobe not support tablets or Kindle Fire

    Why does Adobe not support tablets or Kindle fire?

    You have it backwards.
    Tablets (Kindle, Galaxy, iPad) don't support Flash.
    Chronologically:
    2008 (March) - Apple® releases the first iPhone, using iOS®. Steve Jobs is insistent and adamant that iOS® is NOT compatible with Flash® and NEVER WILL BE. Jobs' reasoning is that playing Flash® content is processor consumptive and it drains batteries, thus shortening the life of them in mobile devices. In six years, that hasn't changed. Not for the iPhone®, iPad® or iPod® Touch™. It never will change and there never will be a Flash Player® for iOS®.
    2008 (September) - Google® introduces Android™ to compete with iOS®, for people who don't want to pay what Apple® is asking for an iPhone®. Android®, unlike its Apple® counterpart IS compatible with Flash®.
    2012 (June) - Android™ (Google®) announces the end of support for Flash® with Android™ 4.3. Going forward NO Android™ devices will be compatible with Flash®, but older versions on older devices can still be loaded with "legacy" builds still available from Adobe®. Android™ (Google®) cites the same reason Apple® did for the decision to end support of Flash®. Adobe® continues to release security patches to Flash Player® for Android™ until September 2013, announcing the "end of life" for Android™ Flash® September 10.

  • Why does Adobe sendnow work and the newest and greatest Adobe Send does not work?

    Why does Adobe sendnow work and the newest and greatest Adobe Send does not work? I wasted about 8 hours on trying to get Adobe Send to upload 269 files that amounted to 469MB. When it did not work I made a zip file and after a lot of wasted run time that did not work. The first situation gives little indication of when a file is loaded compared to Adobe SendNow. In both cases with Send it failed with a message like only the first 50 can be loaded. When I went and looked none of them had been loaded. With the zip file (I wanted to hide the individual files so they would not be counted) it appeared to work but very slowly and finally said it was done and I went and looked and it had done anything for oever 2 hours except a false "I'm runninng" indication.
    Thus, I took a chance with Adobe SendNow and it works great. It never gave me a limit on the amount of files nor on the size of the complete job. It shows me one file at a time when it has finished with the file uploading it. SendNow has never given me any problems.
    Why woiuld you want to change the program from SendNow to Send without the newest program being the best, fastest, user friendly program of the two? It just doesn't make sense to me. I suggest that Adobe keep SendNow working until Send is fixed. I would also suggest that SendNow and how it looks be kept, called Send, then modify Send one thing at a time until you get it to the point you need it to be for Acrobat. I have heard nothing good and now I have experienced it that Send is a piece of junk. I wasted most of my work day on giving Adobe the benefit of the doubt to find out I made a very bad decision to trust Adobe to make good decisions on the transfer of a function to another place .... both Adobe's responsibility.without making it painless for your customers that totally rely on you. Don't throw away customer confidence as it is very hard to get it back.

    Funny how you answer to "troll". (What's your handle on AT&T forums?)
    Yep! Verizon living up to it's contractual obligations by not releasing updates. Caveat emptor!
    I think there are some reasonable expectations here to keep customer's happy. When one carrier offers upgrades there is an expectation the same will happen across all the carriers. We have seen that except Big Red.
    Verizon could have said the update is in MS court months ago and stilled the voice of the disgruntled, or at least redirected it, but instead chose to be silent. Not for market share but for partial blame I think.
    We will have to agree to disagree since you only see Terms & Conditions and I, see customer satisfaction.

  • What's wrong with this Forum? Why does Adobe take so long to reply to posts?!

    What's wrong with this Forum? Why does Adobe take so long to reply to posts?!
    This is actually "specific" to this Photoshop Forum.
    I typically get responses back from other Adobe forum promptly.
    Chime in.

    The Adobe engineering folks DO duck in here from time to time - and that's a BLESSING!  Please name any other big company where you get to interact with the engineers AT ALL.  I can't.  But I suspect the engineers actually have a lot oof real work to do, and their time here is necessarily limited.
    Your comments are more along the line of "I pay a huge amount, for that I expect better support".  These are very valid comments.  But reality is different from what we may expect, and this forum is not the place to expect Adobe support participation AT ALL.  In fact, the technical support people at Adobe often direct users to come here (something I've always found amusing).
    At the higher level, Adobe may simply not be spending enough on support for literally millions of users.  Is is greed or smart business to try to minimize support cost?  That's up for individuals to decide.
    I suggest you write a snail-mail letter to the Adobe president if you're not getting the support you need.

  • Why does adobe flash not work in my firefox. i have down loaded it several times. it will work in explorer and chrome.

    why does adobe flash not work in my firefox. i have down loaded it several times. it will work in explorer and chrome.

    IE uses a different version of Flash than other browsers use. You need to install the Plugin version of Flash for Firefox.
    1.Download the Flash setup file from here: <br />
    [http://fpdownload.adobe.com/get/flashplayer/current/install_flash_player.exe Adobe Flash - Plugin version]. <br />
    Save it to your Desktop.<br />
    2. Close Firefox using File > Exit <br />
    then check the Task Manager > Processes tab to make sure '''firefox.exe''' is closed, <br />
    {XP: Ctrl+Alt+Del, Vista: Shift+Ctrl+ESC = Processes tab}
    3. Then run the Flash setup file from your Desktop.
