Two Win10 computers in the same house, but Microsoft doesn't seem to be able to send updates at the same timeWife's computer updated last night, mine had not yet updated (until I force a restart)Printer is connected to my computer, she prints through home networkToday, for the 3rd or 4th time, her computer stopped talking to my computer... so she couldn't printOnce I did a restart, so the "pending" update on my computer was applied... communication restored and she could print againI have NO idea why a pending update would cause a home network glitch... but it does

Does a photograph tell the whole story? Is the visual story enhanced when a photo becomes the reference source for an illustration?We are used to the painting tool which Photoshop brings to the table. A photograph becomes a clone source.Here’s an interesting news feature on how a soldier-artist carries on a military tradition of capturing the story of defense events in traditional media. Yet, he often starts with a digital photographic reference.https://www.nbcwashington.com/multimedia/Army-Artist-Captures-Humanity-Even-In-War-Zones_Washington-DC-471827363.html

I work for local nonprofit, Playworks Utah. We host an annual Junior Coach Leadership Summit to teach leadership skills to 500 4th, 5th, and 6th grade students. I'm wondering if the Adobe campus in Lehi has any space suitable to hosting the event. Any information you have would be greatly appreciated.Thank you!

Hello Everyone,I am looking for some recording tools to keep tracking the mouse operation history on After Effects and Premiere Pro. I would like to know how the users operate the templates I have provided and which operation they feel difficult. It would be the best if there were any scripts which sent the operation history to me. Any ideas?Thanks,Hideki

Do electronics make you a liar? (We had a client who used to say that.) Or, do you paint yourself into corners?Here’s what happens. A client say’s, “Can you do, ‘blah, blah, blah’?” If the request is something you have done a zillion times before, say, “Sure.” However, if it places you in unfamiliar territory, “Can I investigate that and get back to you?” is the honest response.If the request is a painterly Photoshop illustration, and your Photoshop retouching skills are great but your painting skills are a bit outside your comfort zone, you need to do at least 2 things. 1.) Rather than assuming you know everything about Photoshop painting, do some research and get your technical knowledge up to speed. 2.) Once you know how to use the tools in your toolbox, begin to explore techniques in established methodologies.Some of the latter probably includes exploring what methods other are employing. Is that a touchy point? Well, you’re not trying to study the techniques of a master impression

Any chance that anyone would like to speak on web-related topics at the NAGW conference this September?They are looking for public and private sector - not just government... and are gathering proposals now and I bet a lot of Adobe forum members may want to submit a proposal.All the info is at:2018 Call for Speakers | National Association of Government Web ProfessionalsTopics NAGW is Looking for in 2018:Content Strategy (including Plain Language)Dashboards, Metrics & Open DataSocial Media Policy, Strategy & ToolsUser Experience & AccessibilityInnovative Tools & TechnologyWebsite Project Management & Redesign

There doesn't seem to be a way to set up an RSS Feed for Julieanne Kost's Blog any more.  I can't figure out how to contact to verify this.  Can anyone help me?The last feed date I have is 29 December 2017.

I thought it would be interesting to ask people if they would name the three most important things they wish they could have learned earlier in life.It doesn't have to be in any particular context.

How is the technology sector doing and why should those financial numbers concern creative professionals?This is the time of year when the world’s big suppliers of the tools, which creative professionals depend on, report on how things are going financially. Those reports primarily focus on the October 1 - December 31 quarter and look at how that compares to the previous period.The bellwether has become Apple, which last week reported that revenues were up around 13%. But how were unit sales? Apple sold 1% more iPads and that represented a 5% iPad revenue rise. That tells us people want more powerful iPads. Similarly, iPhone revenues were up 13%, but there were 1% few units sold. That tells us more powerful iPhones are the trend, but we don’t know what we’re supposed to learn from a lesser demand. Are the iPhones people already have lasting longer? We have heard such speculation, but it’s difficult to figure what that really means. Mac sales don’t look great: revenues and units are dow

Friends in the UK were talking about how expensive CC is, and the numbers seemed wrong. But I checked, and at least in the UK and Europe the prices seem to be miscalculated.Taking the UK, annually paying for CC is $50 here, which ought to be £35. But they have VAT at 20%, making it be £42. Why is it they are being asked £50?

Hello, all.Does anyone know who designed the Adobe CC logo?I am working on a PowerPoint presentation for my Marketing class, and can't find the agency or team members who handled the design update.The adobe timeline link is broken. Any help would be appreciated.Thank you.[Discussion moved by moderator from Adobe Creative Cloud to The Lounge.].

Not really a big deal, but paint me confused. Inbox Notification said:Your content has been rejected: Re: Project could not be loaded, it may be damaged or contain outdated elementsYour content has been rejected: Re: Project could not be loaded, it may be damaged or contain outdated elementsBut both posts are - apparently - approved (OP gave me a like).

Honestly, I love me some Dillard's, but they've been going a little crazy with the Photoshop. I first noticed it when many of the models regularly had flat knees. But what I saw today is even weirder. Dillard's is removing the arch of the foot in their pictures of shoes. This poor model has the worst case of flat feet ever Antonio Melani Lynnette Ankle Strap and Buckle Wedges | Dillards. I wouldn't want these shoes if they did that to my feet!What repeat offenders have you seen?

Not so much a forum question, but I can't find anywhere else to send a message. I just wanted to thank Adobe for the effort put into the Dawn and Dusk sessions at BETT last week. I got to three of them and thoroughly enjoyed and was educated by them. The only disappointing thing was how few came to some of the sessions, but this may have helped make it more enjoyable as any assistance I needed was swiftly given. It was good to get a sense that the people who helped write some of the programs were there. Please keep running these - one request, on the Saturday as well next year? So please pass on my thanks to all concerned as I found the sessions very worthwhile.

Terri, seeing as you have raised the subject, how is it even remotely viable that after  so many American celebrities and politicians have been sacked or forced to resign over claims of  sexual harassment, and yet Trump, who bragged about his own blatant contemptible behavior with women, is still the President of the United States?  I can see that the GOP wants to hang on to power at any cost, but at what point does their ever decreasing credibility make their position no longer tenable? 

Read this, read that, text here, text there, text everywhere! Why can't my computer just talk to me? I tickle it's keys, I dust it off, I hug it before I go to bed, I replace it's innards when it's not feeling well, the least it could do is TALK TO ME!

Hey fellow Adobe users...I've recently finished my first documentary. I made it with Abode Premiere Pro and Photoshop. I had fun learning the ins and outs of the programs and am pleased that I can now make some more documentaries with these Adobe products. Come check out the documentary, if you're into learning about how reality works.There's a quick trailer and if you scroll down a 6 min. free promo.Thanks Adobe for your products https://www.reelhouse.org/codes/apollo

I am working with low Rez photos. I need them 300 dpi and at least 8” large. Is there a pixel dimension that I can request they use that would get me what I need? I don’t do enough photography to address this. And most photographers I ask don’t do printed work so they don’t know. Any ideas?

I need a new computer and I need some advice about what to get in a computer. Please do not reply if you’re not familiar any of these products and the computer resources they use.I have had some friends say that it is all in the graphics processor you get and others says its computer processor and memory. I need someone that really knows what they’re talking about and uses these programs to offer advice.First off, I do not want and Apple, I want a PC and I want Windows 7 professional.I need a computer that will handle running these products, Adobe photoshop, Illistrator, Indesign, Acrobat, word, and excel. I will have three or four of these products open at the same time. I need a machine that will be able to handle a majority of these products open at the same time and not be slow or sluggish. I would rather it be a laptop so that I can travel with it but I might consider a desktop.I currently have a laptop that works with this but when I get into some real intensive work on Photshop

Recent security concerns make us think that everyone is rushing to get the latest operating system (OS) upgrade, but that’s hardly the case. That surprised us. Between Apple and Microsoft, we sometimes see new versions released as fast as every week or two, when security issues exist.There was a time when Mac owners rushed out and adopted the latest OS. By year’s end, StatCounter was reporting that worldwide, 26.42% of Mac users adopted the High Sierra (10.13) and 29.61% were back on the previous version, Sierra (10.12), with 20.64% on El Capitan (10.11). That tells us that 76.67% of the Macs in the world, according to StatCounter, have bought into an OS update since September 2015.But, that’s the whole wide world. How about North America? Here on Apple’s home turf, it’s actually a little less: 75.94% with quite a few less for High Sierra: 23.15%.Okay. That’s Mac. How about Windows 10? That was released a few weeks before macOS El Capitan, in 2015. Worldwide, by year’s end, 41.69% of W

Bonjour à tous les membres de adobe stock de fotolia et aux adminsje trouvé hier grace aux conseils d'autres membres comment faire apparaitre aux yeux des autres utilisateurs du forum le pseudo de mon portfolio qui est mon nom de photographe utilisé depuis l'année 2008 sur internetquestion aux admins : Pourquoi les utilisateurs voient leur réelle identité sur le forum alors que les autres voient le pseudo ? pourquoi le nom d'utilisateur n'est-il pas en permanence écrit quand on utilise le site et le forum et pourquoi notre réelle identité est constamment affiché à nos yeux  ? je trouve ça plutôt bizarre et perturbant, un peu comme si un artiste utilisant un nom d'artiste voyait en permanence sur son micro sur scène sa réelle identité alors qu'il est sur scèneUn peu comme si Johnny Halliday voyait écrit sur ses disques, Jean philippe Smet ainsi que sur les affiches de concert, et sur son micro sur scèneou que Patrick Bruel voyais écrit Jean benguiguiquestions aux autres membres :tr
