The kumbaya era of cooperation between hardware, OS, and software companies is long gone--Steve Jobs saw to that when he returned to Apple and declared every other tech company a potential threat to Apple's interests. Apple DOES send alpha and beta software to Adobe, and it does communicate with Adobe (and Microsoft and other major software publishers) but it doesn't ZEALOUSLY cooperate. In truth, if Apple causes a conflict with someone's software, that conflict is blamed on the software maker (Adobe, in this case), which weakens the software publisher while, at worst, leaving Apple unscathed and, at best, making Apple look even better in the short term AND later if Apple decides to compete head-to-head with whoever's software is having the problem (Apple often goes head-to-head against the major software people use on Apple hardware). It's a software bug, for crying out loud. What does politics have to do with this? "ZEALOUSLY cooperate"? What do you want Apple to do, send a personal assistant to each and every software developer out there? Hey, we understand, there is a bug somewhere. It's going to be fixed eventually by someone. There is no need to defend Adobe with nonsense stories.
