I do not understand what is going on over here. These are long time people. Who are you that is doing this? It can't be the Adobe I know and love.

    I have been having issues with the installation of CS4 Master Collection for over a month with tech support and no resolution. I meet all the requirements for the software. AE, Pr OL, En, Sb do not install. I was on the phone for over 2 hours tonight and the Indo-Asian tech didn't give me anything that a newbee wouldn't have tried. Install, un-install, add/remove programs. I am trying to install this on a clean machine, no other software is installed except the required, OS, service pack, hardware drivers, etc.

    I am not getting anywhere with this does anyone have a solution?

    I assume you have windows as the choice of operating systems. Your best bet is to report here:

    I saw that this post was marked as answered, but I don't see the answer...It should have a green bar down the left side, right? Did I just miss it?

    You won't get an answer in here, all the moderators are sporting their invisibility cloaks today.

    All:  this is a reminder that the Forums Moderation policy is clearly stated here:

    And this forum is where you makes comments and suggestions. I find some of the attitudes of some of the moderators part of the problem. Where else could this be said?

    On another note, this is what happens when I try to view page 2 of this thread:

    This is something new, I have never seen it before.

    i was playing whac-a-mole with LT while reading the thread. It takes a bit of time to fully register that the posts were deleted which is why there's a new page even though there are under 50 posts left. It should fix itself in a bit

    See here's a mod who's explained why the numbers don't match... a simple explanation, no ambiguity and no one has to wonder about strange machinations...

    Good of you Zeno to reply.

    The web has become known as a place for free and open communication. The Adobe forums should continue to be as open as possible, as long as a post doesn't physically hurt anyone, and doesn't expound extremist religious or political beliefs that could lead to hurtful behavior. Some people who are experts, and are generous enough to voluntarily share their knowledge, are not always polite -- that's no crime, and there's no way I'd want to give up their valuable contributions just because they have an 'attitude' that may be offensive to some overly sensitive people.

    The users in question were banned for repeated violations of the Adobe Community Guidelines.  We received numerous complaints about their behavior and attitude towards other users. The Forums team takes these reports seriously and is committed to maintaining a respectful atmosphere for community collaboration.

    Legitimate complaints? Are we thinking of the same John Joslin?

    I think it's just because they can.

    I ca understand one of the bans (the mostly unsuccesful one) but the rest...well...I couldn't say.

    Well I wish I could make some sense of this because it feels pretty bad around here.
