Will Captivate 7 be added to Creative Cloud?

Been researching into the new Captivate model and it'd be excellent for my business. As CC licence holder it'd be great to have it included in the package.
Anyone know whether this is something that will happen?

I like the subscription price for Captivate because it is an 18month break-even compared to buying the upgrade and you get all of the updates in that time frame. So for about $20.00USD per month ($240.00USD per year), you get Captivate 7 and all updates as a subscription. OK so far. I also use Adobe Connect and that subscription is about $45.00USD per month ($540USD per year). Now I might use Audition or Photoshop CS6, but upgrades would be nice. So the Creative Cloud would be one-stop shopping at about $50.00USD per month or $600.00 per year.
The disconnect is that Adobe Captivate is evolving (thank you Adobe for stopping the madness through CS4) and it plugs into Adobe Connect. But pardon the sad pun here... There is a huge Disconnect in having Captivate as one product, Connect as another and then not having either of those two in the creative cloud.
Modern on-line training includes Group-Live (PowerPoint and software applications live, college instruction, Etc.), Group-Live Internet with tools like Adobe Connect, WebEx, GoToMeeting or GoTo Webinar, Etc. and self-paced learning with tools like Captivate.
But Captivate has evolved from screen capture to include PDF's, video, sound, images, interaction objects, Etc. But note that the images and video are edited with other tools like Photoshop or Premiere (or the Elements versions of those). I see a disconnect here where the programs are now in different "islands" that are not connected and require separate purchases.
My ideal solution would be to have ALL of these in the Creative Cloud so that I can perform Group Live Internet training seminars and edit my Captivate projects as needed for one subscription price and with one-stop shopping.
Right now, the three purchases of a Captivate subscription plus Adobe Connect Pro plus the creative cloud to get Photosho, Audition and Premiere are not appealing from a price standpoint. Integration of these to the Cloud family would be ideal and it would probably help Adobe to grow in the e-learning space.

Will Director 12 be added to Creative Cloud?

The title says it all

Hi Paul,
I haven't heard plans any plans to do this.
My recommendation would be to create an idea thread (basically a feature request) and add your vote showing interest in this.

Adobe application manager keeps opening and will not allow me to install creative cloud

Adobe application manager keeps opening and will not allow me to install creative cloud. I am trying to sync fonts and the install is not working. The adobe application manager will open on its own and not allow the creative cloud app to install. I do have other creative cloud products installed however the creative cloud installer icon is not appearing in my toolbar nor does creative cloud show up as an app. I get an error message that I must have creative cloud installed when I try to sync fonts via the type kit to photoshop.

Hello ducky,
as strange as it may seem I fear it's a challenge for Adobe's Creative Cloud Cleaner Tool.
Sometimes - for whatever reasons - CC doesn't "want" to work. In this case you should CC completely delete and reinstall by help of Adobe Creative Cloud Cleaner Tool. (A try to uninstall by own resources is not enough!)
I quote: ... helps resolve installation problems for Adobe Creative Cloud and Adobe Creative Suite (CS3-CS6) applications. The tool removes installation records for prerelease installations of Creative Cloud or Creative Suite applications. It does not affect existing installations of previous versions of Creative Cloud or Creative Suite applications.
Please use: http://helpx.adobe.com/creative-suite/kb/cs5-cleaner-tool-installation-problems.html and follow the prescribed sequence of operations
Sometimes the "opm.db file" is the culprit. In this case you should delete it.
If necessary and for further questions and if "open" please use chat, I had the best experiences.

Is or will Extension builder be included in Creative Cloud ?

I'm planning to be a member of Creative Cloud and want to know if the subscription to CS Extension Builder is included in the monthly fee for Creative Cloud and if yes, how to handle the change as I'm currently being invoiced for Ext. Builder.
Thanks,

Captivate is not part of the Creative Cloud for the English versions, so I doubt it will be the case for other languages. There is a subscription possible (pay/month).

Will CS6 still be available on Creative Cloud?

I know you can still buy CS6, but as a Creative Cloud old subscriber, i downloaded CS6, now i want to download the new CC Apps, and delete the CS6 apps, but just in case i need to use them back for incompatibility reasons or bugs, will the CS6 apps still be available on Creative Cloud to download?
thanks in advance

im debating with myself if this is going to be slower than a tweet...lets see!
so i have been sent here to find the answer to my question.....do i need both cs6 and cc or aghhh what should i do.
not the best answer, but its a start.
in addition to that, would i NEED to transfer prefrences from cs6 apps to cc apps or have you finally pulled that out of the bag?
many thanks

I have a Intel Celeron 900 Series processor in my laptop, will I be able to use Creative Cloud?

I want to download CS6 on my Laptop but cannot find out if my system meets requirements.

Your processor is "compatible enough" to run the CS6 desktop graphics applications such as Photoshop, InDesign, Illustrator and Acrobat X.
It does not meet the requirements to run media applications as Encore, Premiere Pro and After Effects.
Note that you will need at least 2GB of RAM to run most of the applications, preferably more. Your experience of the CS6 suite will be influenced by lack of a dedicated graphics accelerator and slow processing speed of your CPU.

Premier will not download. . . in Creative Cloud.

I have downloaded the Adobe Download manager and have installl Photoshop and Acrobat but I can't get Premier to download and it does not show up in the Adobe Download manager.
What am I doing wrong?
Windows 7 installation.

I am on Windows 7 32bit. . . That being said. . . I should not have had to post the question. . Instead of my clicking on install and nothing happening I should ahve seen a message to the effect that Premier will not install on 32bit version of windows. It is complete user unfriendly to just have nothing happen and I have to figure out how to tell someone it is not working. Maybe even the application icons should show which versions operating systems they work with.
I agree. I've raised this exact point myself in the past.
Poor decision by Adobe to just leave confused users in the dark to work it out for themselves with zero feedback.
Feel free to post this thought to Adobe via the official feedback form
https://www.adobe.com/cfusion/mmform/index.cfm?name=wishform
Adobe assures us that they read all comments submitted via that form, Just don't expect any kind of reply from Adobe after submitting the form.

Lightroom 5 added to creative cloud?

recived an email in sept saying tha lightroom would be added to my membership within the month..its october and no word..did i miss something?

It was added to mine, Adobe Photography Program, (if you have CS3 or later deal), I needed to logout of CC and log back in to get it.
I don't think it was made available to people not on the loyalty deal. Nor am I sure it is available as a stand alone app.

Is there an add on to Creative Suite 6 that will let it open Creative Cloud versions of indesign?

I would like to know if there is an add on that will let you open a newer version indesign document in my CS6 version?
Instead of asking the customer to save a copy in interchange format?
I was thinking of upgrading, until I found that you have to pay forever for this software.
I would rather pay one time and use the software like the CS6 version.

Compatibility will depend on application. InDesign for instance needs to be saved back via IDML. But it will be the responsibility of the Creative Cloud user to take care of this for the most part.
For InDesign, Markzware has a new tool: http://markzware.com/products/markztools/
I suggest posting in the various application forums to find out details on compatibility.
Keep in mind that Creative Cloud will become more and more incompatible with CS6 and earlier versions as time goes on and features are added to the software.

Switching Accounts from Creative Cloud to Captivate eLearning Suite

I have a membership with Creative Cloud and would like to add Captivate because I want to get into eLearning. Unfortunately that is not possible as far as I'm aware because Captivate is not available in Creative Cloud. So I'd like to switch my accounts from Creative Cloud to Captivate eLearning Suite 6.1. I don't want to keep both since it would duplicate the Adobe products I currently use, such as Photoshop, Flash, and Acrobat. Is it possible to switch my present account to Captivate eLearning Suite? Or do I need to cancel one, then sign-up for the other?

Hi Dave,
many thanks for your help.
I tried your steps, but i have no success. After i launch Photoshop in step four, the EULA dialog popus up. I can then use Photoshop. But after i close and reopen it, the dialog extend my membership is shown up.
If i then click on "License this software" it can use Photoshop until i close it. The message is "Creative Cloud membership is active now ...."
I tried also the button "retry" then a message shows up "Thanks, your abonnement for Adobe Photoshop CS6 is active. You can click on next ...". Then the dialog extend my membership shows up again and i can't use Photoshop.
Sorry for the translation of the dialogs, i use the german version, so i don't know the exact words in English.
I think i have to contact Adobe support or cancel my new membership in the next days.
Many thanks for your help again!
Bye,
Andreas

Captivate should be a part of Creative Cloud

Captivate should be a part of Creative Cloud. You are forcing me to a third party vendor.

I agree, though I suppose they look at the applications with the largest number of users, and most users of CC might not value Captivate.
I subscribe to Creative Cloud, so I get a lot of powerful applications, but it would be nice if it included Captivate.

Creative Cloud and existing Business Catalyst partners - FAQ

This FAQ will cover topics related to Creative Cloud, for existing Business Catalyst users.
How can I signup for Creative Cloud?
     Your Business Catalyst account should have been already updated right now with your Adobe ID. If you haven’t updated it yet, visit the Adobe ID – Business Catalyst account update FAQ.
What benefits do I get with Creative Cloud ?
     In addition to acccess to all Creative Suite programs, Lightroom and others in one place, a Creative Cloud membership enables you to host up to five Business Catalyst websites. These sites will be webBasics sites. For a full comparison between plans, see this page. If you purchase Muse or Dreamweaver as individual products in Creative Cloud, you can host one Business Catalyst website for each of them.
My web design shop has several employees, each with their own Business Catalyst login with access our Partner Portal. Do we need Adobe IDs for each of our employees?
    Yes. Since these users are partner users, they need to use an Adobe ID. Visit the Adobe ID – Business Catalyst account update FAQ for more details
I have a paid website that I want to host using my Creative Cloud subscription. Can I do this?
     This is not possible. You need to create a new webBasics temporary website in Business Catalyst and push it live.
Can I move a trial/live Creative Cloud site under a different Creative Cloud subscription?
      This is not possible right now.
Do I get any discount if I upgrade a Creative Cloud website to a higher Business Catalyst plan such as webMarketing or webCommerce?
      Currently there are no upgrade discounts for Creative Cloud members.
What are the limitations of the webBasics websites that come with Business Catalyst and Creative Cloud membership?
     You will be limited to 100 MB of storage and 1 additional user (such as your customer). You will not get email, SMS or newsletters for this web plan.
Can I buy more users? Can I buy more space? Can I buy email?
     We are working on creating this workflow but at this point we don’t have an exact release date for this feature.
How can I upgrade the webBasics websites that come with Creative Cloud to a higher Business Catalyst plan?
     We are working on creating this workflow but at this point we don’t have an exact release date for this feature.
Do I get any discount for purchasing more websites if I am a Creative Cloud subscriber?
     Right now there is no discount for Creative Cloud members.
If I am an existing Paid Partner and I have a few employees for whom I paid Creative Cloud subscriptions, how many websites can I claim?
     You will have 5 websites for each employee. However, you will pay different licenses for all of them. Before purchasing these licenses, please contact Adobe Support to add these users to your partner portal. After you have added users to your partner portal, you will be able to access all the websites from it.
*NOTE: If you have already add employees to your partner portal, then everything will work automatically.
If you don’t want to access all your websites from the same Partner Portal, you don’t have to do anything.
How can I set permissions for my employees regarding these websites? What permissions can I set?
      This will be part of a later Creative Cloud that will be launched this year.
What happens if I cancel or stop paying my Creative Cloud subscription?
     Each live website (among the free websites under your Creative Cloud subscription) will stay live for an additional 30 days. This gives you time to decide whether you want to keep the site(s) live or remove them. You will be prompted to upgrade your website to a regular Business Catalyst site plan.
     After 30 days, your website will enter in temporary mode. When entering the temporary mode, your custom domain name will be removed from the website. In order to reactivate it, pay for your website directly with Business Catalyst.
     If you are inactive on a temporary website, it will automatically be deleted.
=== Dreamweaver CS6 FAQ ===
I have logged in on Dreamweaver CS6 and I cannot see my partner site. How can I edit it?
This is a known issue. For paid partners (Standard or Premium) you can use the workaround described below:
export one of your sites as an .ste file
Open the .ste file in another text editor, and modify it
Replace the :
httpaddress with your partner's site URL address
secureURL with your partner site secure URL
siteid with the site ID of your partner site
Save the .ste file with another name
Import this .ste file into Dreamwaver, choose a local root folder
Please take a look at Brad's blog post here for more detailed steps on how to import your partner site in Dreamweaver.
I'm trying to login to Dreamweaver CS6 with my Business Catalyst credentials, and it doesn't work. What credentials do I need?
     You can login to Dreamweaver CS6 with your Adobe ID. If you haven't merged your BC account with an Adobe ID account, you'll need to merge it and then you should be able to login.
How do I access sites in Dreamweaver with an Adobe ID other than the one linked to my Creative Cloud or Dreamweaver subscription?
      Dreamweaver defaults to using the Adobe ID from your subscription to avoid the inconvenience of logging in multiple times. To use a different ID, just click the "Logout" button in the lower-right hand corner of the Business Catalyst panel and log in with a different Adobe ID:
You'll need to have a file open in an existing BC site for the "Logout" button to be visible. Logging out will not affect the Adobe ID used in conjunction with your Dreamweaver subscription. To change the Adobe ID for your subscription, click Help -> Deactivate.

At this point the upgrade workflow is not functional just yet, as mentioned here: http://forums.adobe.com/docs/DOC-2153
So the webBasics Creative Cloud cannot be upgraded directly to the webBasics+ level for now.
But a workaround for this case would be to re-publish your Dreamweaver/Muse project (I suppose you've used one of these solutions to build the site in the first place, right?) in a new trial/temporary site -> let us know what is the URL of that site (don't push it live) -> we will change the site plan from our backend to webBasics+ -> you will be able to publish it using the webBasics+ site plan.
Please note that this is going to be a separate charge, besides your Creative Cloud subscription. The monthly fee for webBasics+ will be $12.21/month, as mentioned here: http://www.adobe.com/products/business-catalyst/buying-guide-subscriptions.html
Another way to use the webBasics+ plan would be to simply trigger a new trial site here: https://syd.worldsecuresystems.com/PartnerPortal/FreeTrialSignup.aspx#splash with the same Adobe ID as the one used to buy the Creative Cloud subscription and take that site live separately.

ELearning Suite and Creative Cloud?

Hello, I am user of eLearning Suite 6.
I have one question - will be Adobe Captivate and Adobe Presenter a parts of Creative Cloud? The reason of my question is - because all products from Creative Suites Families was completely included to Creative Cloud. But central apps from Elearning Suite - Captivate and Presenter - no! Why?
Second question - for new CC versions will be available also some extensions for elearning development (Flash learning Interaction, CourseBuilder, SCORM packager and other special parts od eLearning Suite)?
Thanks for responding
Yarik

And just to update as NOW (May 7, 2013)... not only does Captivate & eLearning NOT part of Creative Cloud, but if you want to update your Capitvate 6.1, you can only do so IF you have a Captivate subscription or ASA account.
Whoa be to you if you actually BOUGHT eLearning Suite 6 in the past year or so.
