Why haven't "licensing" issues been addressed?

Ever since installing (and uninstalling, and re-installing several times) the Creative Cloud, I cannot readily open or read even old pdfs--first I get a message that there's a licensing problem, which sometimes goes away when I go to the Adobe manager and sign in online (obviously doesn't work at all when I'm offline!) and then I get an error message saying to restart my computer and sign in again (which is an enormous pain because I have a lot of different programs running). This sometimes works and sometimes doesn't. Today it didn't--I am wasting way too much time trying to get to my work, giving me too little time leftover to do my work! Help from Adobe seems to be nonexistent.
I have similar problems with Photoshop. There it also tells me every time that my trial subscription has ended (I paid for a year two months ago).
I am on the verge of saying forget this nonsense!

Hey Steve,
The method you described will not give you accurate info about the version number.
To check the version number on Mac
Launch the Adobe Application Manager using the alias in the Applications folder,
Once its open (with the app selected) in the top lefthand corner of the menu should say Adobe Application Manager (next to the Apple menu), select About Adobe Application Manager there
The correct version number listed should be 6.2.77.0
If you don't see this try updating using the download link

Hope that helps,

Have the Adobe Muse CC (2014) licensing issues been resolved?

Have the Adobe Muse CC (2014) licensing issues been resolved?
I am patiently waiting for some word on whether I can go ahead a install the new version of Muse CC (2014) software on my systems without running into the quagmire that so many are experiencing. I simply can't afford to run the risk that I will be stuck with a "trial version" for the next 30 days without some assurance from Adobe that they will be able to solve the problems in that time frame. It would be nice if adobe would send out an email that explains the situation to all of it's users so we know what's going on and when the issue is resolved. Collectively we all pay a lot money for these "updates", so I don't think it's to much to ask.
Kind Regards,
wrgould
PS: Please reference this forum discussion - Muse CC 2014 wants Serial Number, though i pay monthly for muse

You have a Puerto Rico address on your account ? From a quick search I've found one site from somebody in Puerto Rico that includes a screenshot for an app receipt showing tax of 7 cents added to a 99 cent purchase. Are you able to view the purchase history on the account that you've been using, and see what prices show on them (e.g. if the store's listed price or price plus tax) : Store > View Account menu option on a computer's iTunes, then 'see all' link next to the Purchase History section.

We run an iMac 3.4 GHz I7 for our church worship service; we haven't upgraded to Mavericks because we heard about issues with multiple screens crashing. Has this issue been resolved? Thank you!

We run an iMac 3.4 GHz I7 in our church worship service; we have front screens and a stage display monitor ; we haven't upgraded to Mavericks because we heard about issues with multiple screens crashing. Has this issue been resolved? Now that we are 2 upgrades behind, I'm getting little concerned. Thank you!

Oh, well that was a whole other kettle of fish:
Oh the G4 I attempted to install iLife '08 before Lepoard was available. About the only thing that installed cleanly was iPhoto. I ended up reinstalling everything back to iLife '06, and then upgrading back to the current stable version of the iLife '06 version. I didn't attempt a reinstall until after I upgraded to Leopard.
When I did reinstall, I made a iLife '06 folder, copied all iLife apps into it, and upgraded. Seemed to work, except for the part where iMovie gets left behind and iDVD is only mostly functional.
When I installed on the other 2 machines, it was after installing Leopard and all upgrades. On those 2 machines, I didn't bother with the copy, I just moved everything to the iLife '06 folder I created, and did a fresh install.
I didn't have to do anything with the iPhoto Libraries, that I can recall.
I always do an upgrade, never an archive and install. I've never had a problem with this back to 10.1 or 10.2.

you're allowed a 30 day trial while waiting (at least one business day) for adobe to process your payment.

My free trial has expired a week into the trial. I have contacted support and they haven't solved the issue. Stated to use forum to solve my license issue for this computer.

Did you have an Adobe trial running on this same computer before? Maybe your previous trial was used for 3 weeks and then you uninstalled it? If so, you're only eligible for a 1 week trial on this computer.

Windows 2008 R2 RDS Licensing Issue

I have Citrix Presentation Server 4.5 farm (with all of the application servers running Windows 2003) and I have just migrated from using a Windows 2003 server for the terminal services licensing to a Windows 2008 R2 RDS server for the licensing. We have
a number of thin-clients that connect to the Citrix farm and provide a kiosk for users. We have 85 per device licenses however we are only using 15 of those licenses (plans were made but never implemented to use the rest), so we have 70 available licenses.
The licenses are configured per device and as Windows Server 2003 licenses.
After the migration to 2008 R2, the thin-clients connected to the new licensing server without any trouble at all. As I monitored the licenses on the new server, each thin-client was given a temporary license first and then at the
next connection they got a permanent license. All of this I have been able to confirm through the event logs on the server.
However, what I get in the event logs of the new 2008 R2 licensing server an event with event ID 21 that says:
The Remote Desktop license server "ServerName" does not have any remaining permanent Remote Desktop Services client access licenses (RDS CALs) of the type "Windows Server 2003 - TS Per Device CAL". As a result, the Remote Desktop license server cannot issue
RDS CALs of the type "Windows Server 2003 - TS Per Device CAL" to the Remote Desktop Session Host server "vvv.xxx.yyy.zzz". To resolve this problem, verify that the Remote Desktop licensing mode configured on the RD Session Host server matches the type of
RDS CALs installed on the Remote Desktop license server. If required, purchase and install additional RDS CALs as needed for this Remote Desktop license server.
(Note I have removed the server name and IP address due to company policy.) I have confirmed that every server in my Citrix farm has its terminal services configuration set for "per device" licensing and I have also specified the name of the 2008
R2 server rather than allow the servers to automatically find the licensing server. I have confirmed that my 2008 R2 server is configured for "per device" licensing.
The IP addresses I have seen in the event log messages are the IP addresses of a Citrix server rather than one of the thin-clients, and so far every Citrix server we have has appeared in one of these event log messages. I have been able
to determine that this event does not occur when a thin-client is connecting up nor does this event occur when I remotely log into the server.
As I noted above we only have 15 thin-clients using the 85 licenses so we have 70 available licenses for the Citrix servers so why are we out of licenses? What is this message trying to tell me?
Thanks
Brent

Hi Bent,
According the Event ID 21, I think you might have the license connection issues with RDS CALs. I suggest you analyze some relative services and
make sure your network without any misconfiguration.
Hopefully, there is an article describes how to troubleshoot this license issue on the terminal server.
Event ID 21 — Terminal Services Client Access License (TS CAL)
http://technet.microsoft.com/en-US/library/A98D84AC-B824-4F00-BF58-3CFF23493BF9.aspx
By the way, the license of Windows Server 2003 does not support to assign CAL to allow user to access the Windows Server 2008. You should buy a
new Windows Server 2008 license to meet the requirement above if necessary.
Hope this helps.

Having deactivation / licensing issues

I NEED SOMEONE TO HELP ME OUT OF THIS HOLE I'M IN!
I recently bought a new Mac and used migration assistant to transfer everything. I am having trouble deactivating Flash Pro on my old Mac so that I can activate it on my new Mac - it keeps saying I have connection issues, even when I use Adobe's several methods to verify that I can connect to their https and activation sites.
Tghe last step in troubleshoot this was to chart with an Adobe agent - see what transpired during my chat session below below - what started out as a request for connect assistance turned into a licensing issue! (I redacted the tech's name, the serial number and other personal info - if there is someone out there at Adobe that can helop me and needs this info, I will share it with them under separate cover)
XXX: Hello! Welcome to Adobe Customer Service.
JD: thanks
XXX: You are welcome.
XXX: May I please have your email address registered with Adobe?
JD: XXX.net
XXX: Thank you.
XXX: I understand that you are not able to deactivate the product.
XXX: I will be glad to check and help you in this regard.
JD: Yes. I am trying to do this on my old Mac so that I may activate it on my new Mac.
XXX: May I have the serial number of the product you are referring to?
JD: XXX
XXX: Thank you.
XXX: I require 2 to 3 minutes while I check on this activation error, is it okay if I put you on hold?
JD: yes
XXX: I see that the serial number you have provided is registered under different account.
XXX: Can you please verify the email address?
JD: I recently changed my email address to XXX but I don't think I changed this on my Adobe account yet.
XXX: Sorry, The product is registered under different account.
XXX: May I know where did you purchase the product?
JD: I purchased it used on Ebay and had the license transferred to me in 2009. I've been using it ever since on my old Mac. When I log into my Adobe acct using XXX this product shows as mine.
XXX: In this case I request you to contact the point of purchase.
JD: I'm not sure why there is an issue - I successfully registered this software 5 years ago on your site and have been using it ever since. I shows up as mine on YOUR site!
XXX: I see that the product is not existing in different account.
XXX: Sorry for typo.
XXX: I see that the product is existing in different account
XXX: Ebay is not the authorized reseller of Adobe. In this I request you to contact the point of purchase.
JD: Then it appears that you need to remove it from the other one so that it is only showing in mine. I own this software - it is in my hands! It is showing as registered under my name in my adobe account.
JD: I bought it from a private individual and used Adobe' transfer of Adobe License form to put it under my name in 2009. I need you to elevate this to your supervisor. Like I said, I've had this software registered under MY ACCOUNT for 5 years!
XXX: I see that the product is not registered in your account.
XXX: Please login to your Adobe account and check it.
XXX: The serial number you have provided is not registered in your account.
JD: I'm in there now - logged in as Jerome DellaPietra via XXX. I own XXX, XXX, Flash Pro 9, XXX, XXX, XXX, and XXX. I'm looking at all of these in the "My Products" page
XXX: Okay.
JD: Both the numbers on my software and what shows in My Products page match exactly!
XXX: Please see if the serial number you provided is existing in under your account.
JD: YES
XXX: I am sorry. I see that the serial number is not registered in different account.
XXX: I double checked and see that the serial number is registered under different account.
JD: Then remove it. I own this software. It is mine. I successfully registered it with Adobe 5 years ago. It is showing as one of my products
XXX: Since you bought the product from the non authorized reseller we will not be able to see it in your account.
XXX: You can remove it from your end.
XXX: Is there anything else I can help you with?
I gave up with him after that. I need someone at Adobe that can fix this for me. I own this software. It is in my hands! It shows up as mine on my "My Products" page! I still have the original transfer of license form showing the original owner! HELP!

Hi, jwilder. Let's try to resove that. To verify, is it happening even if the battery saver is turn off? Did you check if all system apps are updated? To do this, scan the QR codes from here: Nokia Windows Phone 8 App Updates. You may also try deleting the non-functioning Wi-Fi network from the Settings > WiFi > manage(advanced) > Known networks, tap and hold on the network name and select Delete. From the Known network, make sure that the selected one is set to connect automatically.
Keep us posted.

Why hasn't the tutorial been updated to reflect 4.7's lack of a Design View?

This series uses version 4.5 which is no longer available. It frequently mentions the DESIGN VIEW and how easy it is to use, yet there is NO design view (nor is there a Components tab on the lower left box) in current version 4.7. Not only that, but the code used in several of the first day examples is not valid in Flash Builder 4.7 / Flash Player 11 and the browser refuses to show those examples (btw: most of the examples still work in 4.7). There are now ActionScript related errors in the examples that demonstrated Design View. You've had 2 years to fix this...
It seems that you might be shooting yourself in the foot here by:
1. Not giving new users who want to learn how to work in this environment current information (or at least linbking to new information). This is NOT a way to encourage new customers!
2. Not showing any work around options - such as linking to Dreamweaver, Illustrator or Flash Pro in some way? or updating the tutorial and showing how to create the components in the code view?
3. Marketing? Standards? groups within the company need to anticipate and develop fixes BEFORE making such drastic changes - this has NOT been done and it reflects poorly on the product (which is actually pretty cool)!
What is the alternative?
Aren't there other tools in CC that can be integrated in some already well defined way? i.e. I can edit a menu in Encore by selecting "edit in Photoshop". Why can't something like this be available?
I realize that this is one of Adobe's evolutionary mashup products (ie. Flash uses the timeline that originated in Director, Premiere & AfterEffects use tools acquired from CultEffects and AutoMasker, etc.) so there are many behind the scenes licensing issues that have determined the product evolution (and the products occasionally evolve in unexpected ways) - but it seems a bit contrarian to remove useful features without providing workarounds that users will think are BETTER than the old way!

Why complicate yourself? Adobe has almost pulled itself off from enterprise level flex delevopment to create new HTML5 tooling.
They will not pay to upgrade a training that is on the verge of getting unsupported. Just satisfy your training needs with other resources, such as lynda.com, pluralsight, etc.
Always remember, we are talking about capitalist companies here, if its not done for profit, then its not possible.

Why doesn't my ipad3 IP address match with my IPAddress on Facebook?

Why don't my ipad3 IP address match my ip adress shown on Facebook?

I've got the same problem. Episodes that were marked as played in iTunes or really played completely previously still appear in the appropriate show's list. Re-marking the episodes are played does not solve the problem. I really don't want to delete episodes piecemeal each time I sync my iPhone. Anyone knows of a solution for this?
ETA: Not all previously payed episodes show. I don't know what the trigger is for an episode to show on the list (apart from the "All previously unplayed episodes" that is my current setting), I haven't been able to pinpoint one.

Acrobat 9 - Upgrade Computer OS from Windows XP to 7 - Licensing Issues?

I have a Lenovo laptop that came with Win XP and Acrobat 9 Standard pre-installed, but they gave me the Acrobat installation CD with product key on the back. So after I wipe the HD and insall a new OEM version of Win7 SP1, can I simply install Acrobat from the old CD using the product key, or will I have licensing issues from the re-installation? -- JClarkW

>>The only issue might be if there had been an activation and you did not deactivate it first.<<
I'm sure I would have activated it, to get updates if nothing else, but how do I tell? If so, how do I deactivate it before the OS replacement? -- JClarkW

Adobe Error 150:30 Its a licensing issue I guess...how do I fix this?

I just transferred CS4 onto my new mac but its telling me there is an "Error 150:30" Its a licensing issue I guess...how do I fix this so I can use the program on my new mac? Is it even possible to fix? I don't think I have the physical software anymore its been so long since I have had this program!

Klizb this often occurs when Adobe Creative applications are copied/transferred/migrated to a different computer. Please make sure to run any available uninstallers followed by the use of the CC Cleaner Tool to attempt to recover from the transfer process. You can find details on how to use the CC Cleaner Tool at Use the CC Cleaner Tool to solve installation problems | CC, CS3-CS6.
If you need to download a fresh copy of the retail installation files they are available at Download CS4 products.

Licensing issues ...

Hi ,
i would like to know whether, will there be any licensing issue if we sell an application which has been developed using Adobe Flex..
thanks
saj

Short answer no.
Long answer: Adobe Employees are not authorized / allowed to give legal advice regarding licensing, so it is up to you to discuss specifics with your own legal counsel in conjunction with your own business model / licensing agreements.
