Why I should upgrade to CS4?

Adobe have not yet fix AI CS3. Problems with Stroke thickness, Problems when re-sizing after using the Mesh tool, No Preview Icons, Color Pallets, Crashing after placing TIF files, etc., etc., etc.
Where is the patch to fix for all these problems. Let's face it, CS 2 works a lot better than CS3.
So can any one tell me why I have to waste money in another version from Adobe that may contain bugs and they wont even care to address them? Why I should trust Adobe? And when a patch for CS3 is going to be release?

First the Mesh problem and the free transform tool issue is gone. The extra points for outline stroke is gone and the installers work pretty well. Not only that in the past if you had the current version of the suites ind=stalled you could not install an older version you first had to install the older version and then the newer version. That seems to be gone as I had problem loading the ID CS3 app while I already had the CS 4 version installed with the Master collection. The big problem that seems to be solved with the installers is to uninstall one app and then reinstall just that one problems actually works quite well now.
The only problem I encountered was uninstall PPro and then when reinstalling I got an error about updating a font, whoever that did not seem to rely effect the install which seems complete.
For Illustrator a lot of bugs where fixed although many of them did not effect me. There is however a couple of bugs that seemed to be introduced. One is really minor and the other could be a problem and a big head ache.
Here are the two bugs I did not discover them they are posted elsewhere, though one is minor they are both annoying and make life difficult.
The minor one first.
If you give you text optical kerning and then go to manually change the factor you will notice in the character panel the number in the kerning input field has parenthesis if you forget to delete the parenthesis and enter a new number and hit return you'll get an error message which you cannot be dismissed. You will have to force quit.
Only happens with Optical selected. And if you select the number and the parenthesis and enter a number al will be well.
The other bug is more annoying and hopefully can be corrected in an update. Justified text, place the cursor near the end of a line which is not the end of a paragraph and hit the shift return key, the soft return will be record as such but the behavior will look like a hard break as the line will not redraw as justified.
This is a though bug to live with. In ID this works as expected.

Any reason why i should upgrade my 7 yr old iMac?

Aperture and iLife apps have slowed down and can be tedious when in use. Will a new imac speed this programs up? Otherwise browsing and googling are unaffected. What to do?

FYI,
Your year and model iMac can take 6 GBs of RAM max.
Here's the RAM spec.
6.0 GB (Actual) 4.0 GB (Apple)
Memory Slots
2 - 200-pin PC2-5300 (667MHz) DDR2 SO-DIMM
You can replace one of the 2 GB RAM modules with a 4 GB RAM module from Mac RAM vendor OWC( macsales.com)

SHOULD I KEEP THIS OR BUY ANOTHER ONE WITH 64 bit I WANT TO USE ADOBE cs3, and will upgrade to CS4 soon. i use primarily dreawweaver and i want to learn graphics and want to do tons of multitasking

Seems like you have very much overkill in certain areas and not enough in others. If you will be running Dreamweaver, you don't need a lot of RAM! If, on the other hand you will be using Photoshop, you need a lot of RAM. I've been using Photoshop since 1992 and the more RAM the better, up to about 6 GIGs, then it really doesn' make much of a difference. As for the Graphics cards, not sure why you need 2?? I use Photoshop professionally and have never needed 2. As for the RAM, the graphics cards have their own RAM built in and it should not rob from you system. I use a Quad processor HP running Vista 64 bit. Photoshop flys, as do my other programs. However, I will tell you, if you change to 64 bit, be prepared to upgrade most all of your software, and on top of that, a lot of software is not capitable with 64 bit at this time. I played Hell getting my system set up running 64 bit. If you are not going to be using Photoshop, which is RAM hungry, you do not need more that 4 gigs of RAM.

What's hardware should upgrade for Using Premiere CS4 to editing (AVCHD)m2ts file?

What's hardware or software should upgrade for Using Premiere CS4 to editing (AVCHD)m2ts file?
1st question: when i try to do editing by using Premiere CS4 AVCHD sequence timeline, the edting monitor seems not smooth (like wearing goggles) & delay, and when i use AME to encode m2ts file (which not yet edit) to AVI file (about 1 hour), it take 2h 13min to finish, is it normal?
2nd question: i use mpeg2 HD 1440 file to do eding, the edting monitor also not very smooth but better than using m2ts file, after editing done, i try to encode these mpeg2 HD 1440 file (which edited about long 1 hr) to a New file mpeg2 1440 X 1080i HQ or even mpeg2 Pal DV HQ file, the encoding was not runthe encoding after wait for half an hour. How many hours it take usually????
3rd question: i use m2ts file video file to export as a Bitmap, 1 frame 1 picture bitmap, it take long time too, about 1 or 2min to finish encoding, if i export more than 1 picture, it take even more time, i have experienced it, 3 or 4 pictures need about 10 or 15 min to finish encoding. i used to using mpeg2 HD 1440 file (which edited file) to export frame as picture, it not run the encoding at all. WHY ????
i'm new in Premiere CS4,so i got many question about Premiere CS4, usually i use Premiere Pro 1.5 version
my computer is: Intel (R) Core (TM) 2 Duo CPU

                        2 Hard Disks in my computer (C Drive is 300 GB (not sata) , D Drive is 500 GB sata)
4th Question: Premiere CS5 & Premiere CS4 which one is better ???
5th Question: What's different ATI Radeon and NVIDIA Card, which is better, which u suggest to. What is different Graphic Card and Video Card ?? Should i install HD Video Card ????

I don't think a core-2 will work very well with AVCHD... you need at least an Intel i7 920... or whatever is current
My CS5/AVCHD 1st Impressions http://forums.adobe.com/thread/652694?tstart=0 includes a link to the computer I built... since the GTX 285 is no longer sold, I would now go with a GTX 460 or whatever is the current "best bang for the buck" - AND I would buy 4Gig-by-3Sticks memory to be able to expand from 12Gig to 24Gig if needed
For my home hobbyist, family movies (which means that I am not trying to recreate Star Wars with video effects or many layers) AVCHD editing is "as smooth as spreading warm butter on hot toast" (also the MP4 video from wife's Flip camera)
My 3 hard drives are configured as...
1 - 320G WD Win7 and all programs
2 - 320G WD Win7 swap file and PPro projects
3 - 1T WD all video files... read and write

Why can't PS7 users upgrade to CS4?

Does anybody know the logic behind the fact that PS7 users can't upgrade to CS4? I can't believe that Adobe doesn't have the IT knowledge to enable CS4 to be backwards compatible. One person suggested that I upgrade to CS2 or CS3 and then upgrade again to CS4. That will, of course, save me some money, but why on earth should I have to do that - it's still expensive? I think we all know the answer to that!!
Could I remind Adobe that we are in a "credit crunch" and that perhaps if their software was cheaper they might sell more. Or is that perhaps too logical?
Pam

Or, maybe she should deal with Adobe like she would any other company
that she hasn't bought anything from in about 8 years...
Call them up and find out what they can do for her...as you say, in this
economy perhaps they can offer her a discount on a new CS4 license. It
can't hurt to ask. If she's real nice and gets the right person you
never know.
But seriously, why do you feel this way, Dave? I understand wanting to
be treated fairly but that's a two way street. Has she been a loyal
customer? The answer is quite obviously no.
The fact that you, or any other regular upgrader would take this stance
surprises me. Here's why.
The Adobe installers are crappy enough as it is. Can you imagine if they
had to verify installation media and serial numbers that could be up to
20 years old? I know the argument that's coming...just have the person
call Adobe.
The glitch in that argument is that you need a human being to handle
that...and that costs money, which raises the price of the software for
EVERYONE. Would you, as a loyal customer who's purchased every upgrade,
be willing to underwrite that cost? What if Adobe allowed all previous
owners to upgrade to CS4 for $239.00 instead of $199.00. Now...how do
you feel about it?
People are complaining enough about the cost as it is. Would you then
jump in to chastise Adobe for jacking up the price? You can't have it
both ways...either you want loyal customers to be treated as such or you
don't, but allowing every who's ever purchased a product from any
company to get the same treatment as regular loyal customers just makes
no sense from a customer prospective or a business prospective.

Has anyone used SmartCSS? Should I upgrade to CS4?

I have FW 8 and I've been looking to upgrade to CS4. Is it
really much better? I've also heard about SmartCSS where you can
layout in FW and basically have the CSS written for you in DW. Does
anyone have experience with this? I am a new web designer who
designs fairly basic sites. This seems like it would be a dream
come true for someone like me.
Thanks in advance.

It is a big improvement over FW 8 and even CS 3, IMO, but try
out the
beta for yourself to see.
I've got some videos up at Layers Magazine and Lynda.com if
you want to
learn a bit more.

The CSS export feature does not exempt you from knowing HTML
and CSS; it
can help you move forward more quickly, but you still need to
know
what's going on under the hood.

Free upgrade to CS4 from CS3.3?

Hi,
I have Adobe Creative Suite 3 Design Premium and am thinking about upgrading to CS4 when it comes out.
However I have noticed some sites advertising Free upgrade to CS4 if you purchase the upgrade to CS3.3. Is this free upgrade to CS4 valid if I upgrade from CS3 to CS3.3 now? As I read somewhere it is only valid if you are upgrading from an earlier version?
Or, if I upgraded from CS3 design premium to CS3.3 master collection, would that allow me to get the free upgrade to CS 4 Master Collection?
Thanks,
Nellie

Dear Bob,
I have a difficulty to understand what you are writing.
First you write that the release of Acrobat 9 would be a red flag... I guess you mean that if Adobe extend a suite with additional software this means that another Suite is close? I understood it to be a intermediate release in order to keep customers happy until a new release was ready, but that period would be long and therefore the intermediate release was necessary. As of today I understand that you and Adobe have a better consensus in this matter.
Why did we not need CS3 for 17 months? Well if you read my posts you would have noticed that we have had Design Premium CS3 since release but things change in the world and with a new employee needing Master Collection to correspond to new prospect customer demand we had to purchase a new seat. However, to find out upon opening the box that CS4 is launched and that our new customer was going for that release, whereas we had paid full price for an obselete software, thereby loosing customer(not yet though, lets hope Adobe and we come to a agreement), unless we pay another 1k doesn't make us happy.
If we had got the info that CS4 was close we wouldn't have purchased CS3.3 since we then would have the possibilty to discuss the matter with our prospect customer and both could have waited for CS4 release. Meanwhile we could have handled shortterm stuff with our CS3 Design P.
How to handle this in the future. Well either we all users have to continue our search on internet and on forums to find out what the rumour is...
... or Adobe put progress reports on their official website about next release planned in x months. I write planned since I understand that writing software usually takes more time than planned, but at least it should not come to a situation where a release is launched earlier than the rumour in forums etc.
Any other suggestions to Adobe how to handle releases?

Upgrade from CS4 to CS5.5. did not go smoothly, now stuck at CS5 - how do I fix the installation?

Hi There,
I had a lot of issues upgrading from CS4 (Adobe Application Manager crashing, installer not opnening etc) but managed to get the installer to run by using the Adobe Creative Suite Cleaner Tool to remove all traces of CS4.
However, when the installer finished, it stated there were errors and now the installers won't run - nor can I run updates from the CS apps that did install.
I've normally never had any issues upgrading, so am not sure why I had so many issues and the best way forward from here - Hoping I don't have to remove all the CS5 apps, use the Adobe Creative Suite Cleaner Tool again and start from the begining.
I'm trying to install Master Collection CS5.5 on Mac OS 10.7.2
Any suggestions would be much appreciated.
Cheers
Ben

Have had to hang up as I was calling the US using a New Zealand Mobile while in Portugal (long story) - and the 11 minute wait time would've cost the same amount as the CS5.5 upgrade!
I had to call the US because:
The New Zealand support number listed on the Adobe site doesn't work
New Zealand is not listed as a country Adobe suppoprt will call back from the "Schedule a callback" page
What a joke.
I used the Adobe Support Adviser app to analyze the install error log and it provided me with a very helpful link to a support page that states "You can ignore this error and launch the products you were installing."
Unfortunately, nothing was installed.
I need to do work while a long way from home and can't use/install any CS5 apps - does anyone know how to install CS5 in Lion?
Cheers

Upgrade to CS4 or CS5?

The agency I work for is currently using CS3, but there is a debate about upgrading to CS4 or to CS5. Because we work with a lot of print pieces one of the concerns is that most printers are probably still on CS4 so we shouldn't be more advanced than they are to avoid needing to save everything down. The other side of the argument is that the time saving features added in CS5 would be worth taking the time to save files down.
I think it would help provide some insight to hear from someone who is familiar with CS4 and CS5, and any issues they have experienced.
So any advice?
Thanks for your reply!

CS4 is not for sale. Only CS 5 is available. Moreover, any printshop worth using should have both. If they have not purchased CS 5, then they probably aren't worth working with. Upgrades like this are part of their cost of doing business. They can purchase it now or a year from now. If they purchase a year from now they will have one less year of work from the software at exactly the same price.

Help w/ upgrade (corrupt) CS4 - CS 5.5 ; MSOffice 2007 - 2010

Hello:
I recently conducted a LONG phone-based support incident, and I have reviewed the many KB articles on my topic(s) but I still have some questions.
ISSUE:
I need help with uninstalling & cleaning up CS4 in order to cleanly install CS5.5, coincident with a planned upgrade from Office2007 to Office2010 on a Win7(x64) SP1 PC. I use fully-licensed educational versions of Adobe CS & MS Office products.
In particular, I need to know if I should upgrade Office2007 to Office 2010 BEFORE uninstalling CS4 and installing CS5.5, or the other way around?
Background:
1) Several weeks ago, Adobe PDF Printer in Acrobat 9 of my long-standing, fully-patched CS4 install inexplicably disappeared from my system.
2) TMAVLSS, After several long weeks of phone assistance with escalated Tech Support, including attempts to repair the PDF printer, reinstall it, uninstall drivers, reinstall it again, etc we were unsuccessful. Failure was ultimately attributed to "core driver package" corruption.
3) All other components of CS4 have continued to work just fine, including Acrobat, as well as scanning to pdf from my HP printer, "saving" Word docs as pdf. But I have been getting by without Adobe PDF Printer.
4) It was suggested that we completely uninstall CS4 and reinstall it. Since I knew CS5.5 was soon to be released, I opted to wait.
5) I now have a boxed educational version of CS5.5 and a licensed, educational DVD of MSOffice 2010 Pro.
6) So I think I have everything to proceed, but I am a bit uncertain about the correct sequence to do this.
7) One other wrinkle is that KIS2012 has just been released. Upgrade will require that I first uninstall KIS2011.
Questions:
1. Should I perform the Office upgrade first, or should I upgrade Adobe CS first?
2. I assume, given the unresolved issues with the Adobe PDF Printer in my Acrobat 9 component of CS4, that I should perform a complete uninstall of CS4 & perhaps all Adobe Products (Including Adobe AIR), then run the CS4-5 removal tool, and only then attempt to cleanly install CS5.5?
3. Would it be advisable -- to avoid potential subtle AV or firewall issues -- to perform the Office and CS upgrades with KIS uninstalled (taking into account the requisite security considerations)?
If Adobe staff monitor this board, and if they would like the details/case number of my recent extended Tech Support incident, please let me know, and I will provide it via PM.
In the interim, I most certainly appreciate your assistance and advice!

Hello, mylenium:
Thanks for your reply.
Kindly indulge my concern about this.
I am not a computer geek, but I have been working with PCs long enough to know that it often helps to plan ahead.
I am just looking to get a clean, uncorrupted install of CS5.5 DS Educational, with minimal risk.
Adobe CS is a LARGE, complex package, deeply integrated into the OS and other programs, and installation of which has been troublesome from time to time over the years.
And it has certainly cost me countless hours of frustration recently, trying to resolve the PDF Printer mess, especially since TS ultimately left my system in worse shape than it was when I first called.
I am not looking for guarantees or assurances.
I am really just looking for answers to my original questions.
(As far as the security stuff is concerned, I have the info I need on that from another source.)
So:
1) You say, "you will have to run the Cleaner Tool eventually", but do not say at what point in the process. I assume I will need to follow the tutorial posted in the Help section of the CS web site.
2) You say, "...None of that has anything to do with Microsoft's apps". Could you please tell me, though, whether I should perform the Office upgrade FIRST, or the Adobe CS5.5 upgrade FIRST?
3) I am confused by the "dumb file overwrite process" you mention. If I will be UNinstalling CS4 and running a cleanup tool prior to cleanly installing CS5.5, what files would remain to be over-written? (I am not planning an in-place upgrade from CS4 to CS5.5.)
Thanks very much for your patience and consideration,

CS3 (on Windows 7) upgrade to CS4

Hello -
I currently have CS3 Master Collection running on Windows 7 64bit Ultimate RC. I know that CS3 is not certified to run on 64bit systems and yes I know that my version of Win 7 is a beta build.
So my question is:
- Once I get the *real* Win 7 OS later this month, would it be ok to install CS3 on there and then the upgrade to CS4?
...or
- Should I install a Win XP 32bit OS, install CS3, upgrade to CS4, then upgrade to Win 7?
I realize any which way I go, I'll have to de-activate, wipe clean the HDD, and then reinstall with whichever methods you experts recommend. Or maybe some other way you all can think of that I may not be seeing here.

I understand your point here BUT.....
....your method that you are describing sounds to me like I have to purchase a FULL CS4 version rather than an upgrade version....correct? Or does the upgrade version just need the serial / registration / activation number, code or whatever from my current CS3 and not necessarily be installed?
So here's what I was thinking that I could do:
- Buy Win7
- Install on new HDD
- Install CS3
- Buy CS4 (UPGRADE Version)
- Install it
- Start using it!!
Your thoughts?

Why cant i upgrade my 17in macbook pro (s/w 10.6.8)to mavericks

why cant i upgrade my 17in macbook pro (s/w 10.6.8)to mavericks? I do not know what month it was built. I bought it as a refurbished by Apple a few months ago.

Check that your computer is compatible with Mountain Lion/Mavericks/Yosemite.
To check the model number hold down the option/alt key, go to the Apple menu and select System Information.
iMac (Mid 2007 or newer) model number 7,1 or higher
MacBook (Late 2008 Aluminum, or Early 2009 or newer) model number 5,1 or higher
MacBook Pro (Mid/Late 2007 or newer) model number 3,1 or higher
MacBook Air (Late 2008 or newer) model number 2,1 or higher
Mac mini (Early 2009 or newer) model number 3,1 or higher
Mac Pro (Early 2008 or newer) model number 3,1 or higher
Xserve (Early 2009) model number 3,1 or higher
Your Mac needs:
OS X v10.6.8 or OS X Lion already installed
2 GB or more of memory (More is better - 4 GB minimum seems to be the consensus)
8 GB or more of available space
Check to make sure your applications are compatible. PowerPC applications are no longer supported after 10.6.
Application Compatibility
Applications Compatibility (2)
Do a backup before installing.
Your iMovie and iPhoto data should be good, but you will have to upgrade the applications.
If you decide the upgrade isn't worth it, you can share Mail, Calendars, and Contacts running Snow Leopard. Based on my experience, I don’t recommend syncing Contacts - created a lot of problems with duplicates. If you have 2 step verification enabled on your Apple ID, you will need to generate an application specific password for Mail, iCal, and Address Book. Apple ID - Manage

In WMP right click on the song then select Advanced Tag Editor. A window will open, then select the Pictures tab and hit Add button. Now select a JPG of the album art (it has to be JPEG not BMP or PNG). And add it, now select Album (front) as picture type.
In WMP11 you can drag and drop the album art to the empty CD box of each album or song. Just make sure that's a JPG file and that the file size is less than 200KB.
Now drag and drop or sync the files to your device. Then refresh the library in the device (Options-> Refresh music library)
Ahh, you mean how to do it in wmp,right? well,i know how to do with pc in wmp. i use audioshell. you can get it at www.softpointer.com/AudioShell.htm. what i mean is nokia should upgrade 3250 music player so it can show us album art. b'cuz n70 came before 3250, it support album art,why not nokia music edition like 3250? it quite ashamed a music phone doesn't support this feature.....

Upgraded to CS4 and now no FLV export plugin in Quicktime

When using CS3 Master Collection (on Mac 10.5.6) I could use Quicktime or Apple Compressor (uses QT) to export .mov files to .flv files. Then I upgraded to CS4 Master Collection and everything still worked. Then I got tired of having all the CS3 programs still on my computer so I used the CS3 disc to uninstall CS3. Later I noticed the Flash export within Quicktime was gone. So I put back CS3 install disc and just installed the Flash export components and then the .flv export was back on Quicktime. Though I solved the problem, shouldn't CS4 (upgrade) have that plugin as well? Did I do something wrong? Are other things going to be missing or go wrong since I uninstalled CS3? Let me know what you think. Thanks

Hi Todd, I bet you upgraded from a PPC machine.
The real problem here is that Flash 8 is/was not a universal binary (i.e. an app that is supported on both the PPC and the Intel Macs).
So the included "FLV Exporter" QuickTime component does not show up in the export dialog even if it's installed as it just does not get loaded.
(Should be in "NameOfSystemHD/Library/QuickTime").
If you update to Flash 9/CS3 you get a universal binary app and QT exporter component and it will work again on your (Intel) Mac Pro.
Btw., the Flash support that was in QuickTime had nothing to do with export - especially not with FLV - but with playback of Flash content.
Addionally, AE 7 isn't a universal binary either, so you will suffer some pretty serious performance losses.
Best regards, Oliver

Why I should upgrade to CS4?
