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 is it that Apple cannot get their bluetooth technology right? The3GS does not even find the handsfree kit, computer etc? While a cheap $59 phone can do that from Nokia? why don't Apple get their act together?

Why is it that Apple can't get their bluetooth technology right? I cannot connect to my Honda Civic VTI-L 2011 model using the bluetooth? While I can do that using my cheap Nokia phone ($59.00)? I shelled out $380.00 and this is what I get...
It will not even connect to my HP Elitebook 8540P??? Before anyone starts, this is what i have already done:
Installed the latest OS 5.1
Switched on the bluetooth on both device
And they are next to one another
So don't post here saying things that I have already done. Used the Bluetooth technology frequently so those carp from Apple about making sure devices are discoverable blah blah blah...don't even go there.
Will not buy another Iphone and will tell everyone that I know of that it is a piece of overhyped ****.

"What Apple did say that it has Bluetooth Technology,"
It does have bluetooth technology. It will connect to may types of devices via bluetooth.
using any other phones, the Bluetooth Technology means that you can connect to other devices with Bluetooth Technology."
Iphone connect to other devices as well. I connect via bluetooth all the time to my car. Like any other phone, it does not connect to ALL devices for ALL purposes.
You seem to have very little understanding of bluetooth technology. Perhpas you should read up on bluetooth before you begin a rant based on your ignorance of the subject.

Is there a way to create a PDF form that ANYONE can fill out and SAVE with their content?

Is there a way to create a PDF form that ANYONE can fill out and SAVE with their content? By anyone, I mean someone who can download and use the free Adobe Reader, on either a Mac or PC. I have Acrobat Pro, and would like to be able to create forms that can not only be filled out and printed, but saved and emailed, which is not an option with the forms I have created to date. They can be filled out, but not saved, with Adobe Reader.
TIA,
Nancy

To do what Dave indicated you need to do, it depends on what version of Acrobat you have:
Acrobat 8: Advanced > Enable Usage Rights in Adobe Reader
Acrobat 9: Advanced > Extend Features in Adobe Reader
Acrobat 10: File > Save As > Reader Extended PDF > Enable Additional Features
Acrobat 11: File > Save as Other > Reader Extended PDF > Enable More Tools (includes form fill-in & save)
I wonder what it will be next time?

Every time I swap between my SIM cards with the iPhone all the messages that we're sent whenever the SIM card was not in my phone never show! is there anyway I can stop this and still get the massages?

Hello SeamusFitz,
Thank you for using Apple Support Communities!
In order to get your messages to show up on your other phone, you would need to have a backup of the phone with the messages, and then restore the new phone from that backup.
According to article iTunes: About iOS backups found here http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4946 iTunes will backup your Messages.
iTunes will back up the following information
Messages (iMessage and carrier SMS or MMS pictures and videos).
This will help you backup and restore your device:

Why can't Apple & At&t get their info straight?!?!?

So I got the 16GB model of the iPhone 3Gs directly through at&t via the online store. I decided that I wanted to upgrade to the 32GB model. Within the past two days I've gotten ALL these answers by both parties
1)Apple says I can't exchange the phone at their store, I have to go through AT&T
2)AT&T says I can't exchange with at&t, I have to do it at the apple store.
3)At&t says I have to do it at an AT&T retail store
4)At&t says I have to return it in the mail and wait for another iPhone 32GB to get sent to me.... Leaving me without a phone for DAYS.
*** is wrong with everyone?!?!?!?! Can't anyone get their facts straight. I've wasted HOURS of time waiting in line at the Apple store and going to the AT&T store. Why can't I just simply RETURN my 16GB model and pay an extra $100 for the 32GB?!?!?!?! What's the f'in problem?!?!?!

From my experience, it makes more sense to buy direct from an Apple store. I drove an hour to get to my closet Apple store to avoid this stuff. I've read to many horror stories on this topic.
_*Here's what another poster experienced and later resolved:*_
We tried to return the week 21 phone to the Santa Monica apple store, but the genius said because we bought it from AT&T we had to return it to AT&T; he said Apple will not replace any phones purchased from AT&T. Only looking at the icons on the black home screen, he said the phone looked just fine and meets Apple's specifications. We didn't bother arguing with him, the guy was not going to help us.
We called AT&T and they said that's not true, Apple handles all returns. AT&T transferred the call to Apple, and sure enough Apple replaced the phone, even though this phone was ordered on-line at AT&T and shipped by AT&T originally.

Can someone try and power off their iPhone completely and have someone send them an SMS text and see if they receive it after about a minute it has been off?

My iPhone when powered off does not receive SMS texts when powered back on.
I went to Apple they said everything in the phone is fine. I went to AT&T and they did their testing and told me to go to apple.
AT&T and Apple recommended I reset network settings and problem persisted. Then I was recommended to reset all settings and same problem. I was then recommended to restore my phone and set up as new and had the same problem. I received a new SIM card and that did not solve it. With AT&T they put my SIM card in another phone (android phone) shut it off and turned it back on after a while and I received the text. So I thought it was the iPhone that was bad. I ended up getting a replacement and still the same problem. So any ideas? I think it's an iOS 7 problem with iPhone 4.

I have this problem too, on an Iphone 4. I'm in the UK running IoS 7.0.4.
My network (Virgin) also told me to reset network settings which didn't work.
My bank, who I talked to because I'd missed there texts, said they'd had this reported by a number of people, and been told Apple it was a fault with Iphone 4 and 7.0.4.
I can point to about 6 or 7 threads talking about this exact problem, with a lot of people clicking 'I have this question too'
Any advice gratefully received, or if anyone has heard any news from Apple about this issue.

Why can't Apple and HP get Mountain Lion 10.8.4 to work with the HP OfficeJet 7610? Does anyone know how to make the wireless scanning work?

Does anyone know how to make the HP OfficeJet 7610 (latest version) and iMac 3.4 GHz i7 running 10.8.4 work together correctly? Print function seems to work ok. Just can't find the scanner in any setup.

In System Preferences/Print & Scan is there a scan option?

Why is there no page back icon on firefox please get your act together

every time i use firefox i cant go back a page so frustrating

I have since discovered that one could access this information from the Release Notes, which can be accessed from the Help menu. Sorry! My mistake!
However, it would still be helpful (i.e., to those of us who are newbies, or forgetful) to include a link from your support page. Please include it there as well!

Adobe, when can you get your act together?

I just installed Master Collection CS6 on a new machine and updated it to the latest versions.
But, the installer is still so utterly stupid and I have been complaining about that for years, filed numerous feature requests, but nothing happens. It is still the same approach as three years ago and nothing has improved.
What do I mean:
Every program in the Suite installs up to 40+ languages in the AMT directory, it repeats that in the Legal directory, then again repeats that in the OBLRes directory , sometimes even in the LMResources and RegLoc directory.
On a typical install this eats up more than 3 GB of space, just in order to show me the EULA in Afghan, Rumenian, Finnish, Arabic, Mandarin, Bulgarian, Taiwanese and what have you. Not only that, these files are replicated a multitude of times, slow down the download and installation and require quite some effort to get rid of that crap.
Adobe, why can't you make a simple installer like Microsoft that installs in either the selected language or the location that is set for the computer.?
There is no use for me to see your legal rights in one of the many (for me) unintelligible languages. Make it simple and save people time and around 3-4 GB space. Additionally, store all that crap in a central place like Adobe/Common, instead of replicating this all over the place for each and every application in the Suite.
Since you have never done anything with my earlier feature requests, this may be the better way to get your attention.
Sorry to sound so p*ssed off, but having to go through each and every program to clean up your mess, does not make me happy.

Thank you for your feedback Harm. I will certainly be happy to pass on your feedback. So that I can also verify this behavior can you confirm which operating system you are installing on? By the reference to Adobe/Common it would appear you are using a Windows operating system?

How many of the same game can I buy and still get the 20% off.

I am a gamers unlocked member, and my friends and I want to buy the Batman Arkham Knight $99 version. I already preordered mine so I should get it for $80 like I did for Destiny. My question is if I preorder 2 more copies will I also get the 20% off them as well. I remember a while back ready you can purchase up to 3 games on the same console. Please help.

I'm happy to hear that you've placed your pre-order with Best Buy for Batman Arkham Knight. Thanks too for being a My Best Buy Gamers Club Unlocked member.
It is correct that you can purchase up to 3 copies of a title per console. I would like to add, though that your My Best Buy membership is for individual use only and not intended to be shared.
Please let us know if you have any additional questions.

Can a safari and microsoft window share equal space?

Is it possible to have two application windows open (one say safari and the other microsoft word) and be able to see both windows at the same time clearly? For instance if I am in the process of writng a review on an article i read on cnn.com and i dont want to keep switching btwn. the two windows

Welcome to the discussions!
You can adjust the size of the windows to fit one side by side. Just drag the bottom right corner and adjust to fit.
The MB's screen is a little small for that, but it can work if you fiddle with it.

Can ACE module and 4710 appliance work redundant together

Hi.
I am setting up a testlab for ACE loadbalancing and need to test functionality on both the ACE module and the 4710 appliance.
Can one of each of these two be set up redundant together with full functionality? Or do I have to test redundancy for 2x ACE modules and 2x 4710 appliances seperate?
Thanks in advance for any help!

It won't work.
The code checks if the devices are the same during the HA negotiation.
If you do a 'show ft peer detail' you should see at the end :
SRG Compatibility : WARM_COMPATIBLE
License Compatibility : INCOMPATIBLE
These 2 entries indicate if the box are compatible to run HA between each other.
The version is checked and the license.
Both would be different between an ACE module and ACE appliance.
