GREAT WORKAROUND, IAIN !! Too bad I most users of Adobe software like Edge Animate and InDesign prefer elegant solutions that involve less or preferably no coding at all. And as you already state, it's hopefully something that will be a lot easier to tackle in the future. But you've untangled and explained exactly what the technical issues are with these OAM and ePub files. Kudos !! And although an iframe is perfectly valid HTML to be included in an ePub, Apple choses to be reluctant in supporting ePubs on mobile devices. (Probably because 9 out of 10 times these iframes will refer to online resources). That's their choice and decision. Should Adobe cross their arms and sit and wait until the world ditches iPads ? Or could they try to come up with an elegant solution, implementing what you've described above in either Edge Animate and/or InDesign's ePub output ? ... View more

Some of the trouble with this reasoning (HTML animation from Adobe Edge Animate OAM to Adobe InDesign in a DPS works, so should ePub work as well) might be caused by the fact that an ePub should contain ALL content within the file itself. Only explicite hyperlinks are allowed to call for online activity. That's also why it's difficult to use streaming video like YouTube and online components like Google Maps in an ePub; they totally rely on online resources. Apple is very protective and prevents undesired or unexpected online data usage from the user's standpoint. That's also why you need to be reluctant or at least very careful and clear in accessing online resources in DPS files after the initial download of the folio. The second part in the final post in this thread: Tumult Hype | Hype and full bleed, fixed layout ePub 3... (Nov 24th 2014) gives you an inkling of this "online iframe vs. local addressing" phenomena. I'm not a coding wizard, but I do belief there's something to be dealt with from Adobe's side to make Edge Animate's output of animated offline components (or InDesign's input and output of the OAM) accommodate for ePub 3 FXL. One of the other and more obvious culprits, is the use of those CDN options (for required jQuery scripts), in stead of keeping the scripts embedded in the OAM file or present in the Web output from Edge Animate. ...

I also remember there used to be quite an impressive dialogue where you could set very precisely how you wanted the rendering to perform: type of rendering, options, quality, etc. I found it partially under File - Export - Render Video, but it's not nearly as much as it used to be. Some other stuff can be found in the Properties panel when a camera is selected (like Stereo, Anaglyphic, etc.) but still, I feel I'm missing out on something in the current CS6 and CC versions. Here's the mighty dialogue we're probably looking for, accessible through the Edit button in the old CS5 3D (Scene) settings panel: ... View more

You're right about Muse, not being offered in any other way than a subscription. But I responded to your worry "about the whole change to CC", whicht is not a forced move for everyone. There are already many discussions about that topic on this forum, so let's not start another one in this more technical area of installing and updating CC. You asked "Why can't I update Muse through CC?" and I pointed out some explanations, which I've understood of what's happening behind the screens. To some degree, I think these explanations can serve as a temporarily excuse for the current flaws. But you're absolutely right: these flaws and bugs need to be tackled. I totally agree with your annoyance ! There's a brand new update for the CC Desktop Panel that addresses again several issues (probably not all), but I've heard more improvements are still on the way. Keep giving feedback, it helps, really ! ... View more

You transferred the CC apps from the TimeMachine backup - this might not yield the most optimal situation. Adobe software has a lot of specifically connected tentacles in all kinds of system folders. So it's wiser to remove all Adobe applications and let them re-install, properly. Besides the above aspect, you can install CC on as many machines as you want - but you need to keep track of the machines you're actually logged into (max. 2) ! If you forgot to log-out on a machine, you can tell CC upon logging-in once too often, to remotely deactivate hence log-out from the other machines. ... View more

Muse and some other apps have been using a different kind of programming language and installation procedure, that is not yet fully compliant with CC (it's based on AIR). So the Muse app can't be checked correctly in the CC panel. The same goes for Reflow, but for a different reason (it's legally still a "Preview" with iterations, no real "versions"). I heard Adobe is working on it to iron these diffrences out of the CC installation and tracking techniques, but it's not fully ready yet. ... View more

So there must be another CS6 version somewhere on your system ! That should not be any problem, you can run multiple versions next to eachother. But your system still thinks that .indd files all belong to that older version, which shpuld automatically be opened. Is it a Mac or a Windows you're working on ? Select such anewer file and try at least the "Open with" command (under File, or with right-click, or maybe control-click on Mac). Does the newer CC version at least show up as an option ? ...

Well, I guess I'm the only one here, having these nuisances. Shall I toss in another small one in this same league ? I hate it when the CC Desktop icon up in the menu bar shows a red warning, and when take a peek, there's nothing wrong, no trace of what the warning was for, and the icon turns normal again. It not only disturbs me, but it also gives me the idea that some developers at Adobe are not doing their job right, on a very crucial level. It might seem trivial, such a warning in an icon, but to me it's another irritating waste of 20 seconds, spoiling my overall experience with CC. ... View more

I know all the convincing and reassuring arguments about the normal installation and use of the CC apps. But I'm going to take a very good look at what happens when I receive and install updates.

Many CC applications still use various installation and authentication methods behind the screens. We'll see... ... View more

Sorry, my email notification for this thread (and many others) don't seem to work. So I missed your very quick and kind answer to my request.

Same here. Due to updating several CC components earlier and/or being off-line now and then, many applications often ask me to sign in again, type in passwords, or prompts me to "Complete my registration and profile" for the unnecessary twentieth time. It becomes a nuisance and sometimes even a dangerous dead-end, when an application demands to fill-out CC credentials while you're not on-line. There are still a lot of situations to tackle and bugs to kill, I gues... ... View more

As of mid-september, the InDesign update for DPS tools v28 (with important new features) is again described as a "bug fix". Please take more care with these mentions.

By searching for info on this topic, I ended up here, maybe a bit late to the party but it might be valuable to add my two cents. Changing the language of an Adobe application varies from application to application. Fortunately, in most applications for Mac OSX the resources for multiple languages are embedded in one and the same application. So you don't install complete new applications, but just some extra resources. However, actually using that language differs for almost each application. Some applications like Photoshop, Muse, and Acrobat simply offer a interface language setting in the Preferences. Yes, the shortcut key for Preferences is different in almost all applications, and I'm not getting into that debate... Then: some applications change immediately, some change partially but need a Quit and Restart, some rely on the System Preference's language order setting and act accordingly after logging out and in again, some applications just need to Quit and Restart after changing the System's Preference setting. So it's a mixed bag of procedures. And the Creative Cloud panel has nothing to do with these procedures - its language setting is just for its own interface and installing language resources. I also tried to install applications twice by changing the installation location in CC, hoping for 'twin' applications that I could just open up the right application for the desired language at will (English or Dutch), but that didn't work well. Nothing new was installed, just some extra resources in the application's regular file or folder. So Adobe is really trying to let us at least use multiple languages, but the way how to use them is not consistent. A final word: some CC users in Europe have been offered and purchasing a rare "English only" upgrade to CC, which lacks multi-language capabilities (falling back to the trial period for any installed non-English language).

Hey, I noticed it even gets weirder. When I'm eventually in the list of Forum Discussions and click one level higher up in the breadcrumb trail (second to the top level, expecting to arrive back in the whole Help enchilada), I remain in the Discussions List section. I have to click the large heading above it (which doesn't look as if it's a link at all), to go back to the original landing page of that application or topic. The breadcrumb trail doesn't reflect that navigation. So it's difficult to get into the Forum Discussions, and also difficult to get out of it. It's all becoming a bit fishy, isn't it ?

I appreciate your quick and kind explanation, but it's a very confusing decision/policy. Either stop calling it "updates" here and there, or fix this awkward behavior. It's confusing the user, and spoiling the overall experience of the CC panel. BTW: Why is the first tab named "Start" while it actually states some informative configuration history, and I can't start any applications from here. That would be a nicety, to be able to launch the Adobe apps from these tabs, wouldn't it ? Name the first Tab "History" and make the apps launch from the "Apps" tab. That would be more obvious, useful, and user friendly. ... View more
