Okay, this is very minor (VERY!)...Just noticed that the list of threads in My Stuff is not in strict date order: The threads highlighted in green appear in the person's profile summary on hover, which may not reflect current issues. In any case I prefer the previous way of displaying threads that a person started. Not a big issue, just highlighting it.Niall

I have a presentation that I never converted from Persuasion 4. I still have the program, and Classic, but somehow the installer files are gone. I hope someone can provide me with that file. THANKS VERY MUCH!

.. Click the Edit button....... Edit your post....... At this point the smart poster selects all and copies....... Click the Update button........ scower in frustration that your post has not updated....... Click the Edit button a second time.......Retype your edits, unless you are a smart poster, then simply select all and Paste.......Click the Update button again.......Sigh in relief that your post has been updated, but wonder why you must edit twice every time you wish to edit a post....Things have been this way for quite a while. I've reported it before, still happens every single time.

I have Muse questions and I'm really hoping I don't have to create yet another online account. (Whatever happened to that thumbprint login technology that was supposedly being developed by somebody years ago?!!) Do Adobe accounts not work on the Muse forum?Thanks.

I had used a program called Virtualdub 1.8 to crop and removed some garbage from the edges of the vhs video.  I would also export this video in Adobe Premiere Pro 2.0 to do some color correction.  I would like to know how to render this video as an  file, my final output will be an avi file.  First, do I render this file, save it, and render is as an avi file, or just render this file as an avi in Adobe Premiere Pro 2.0. and save it.  I'm very confused on how to render and save a file as an avi in Adobe.  I'm just learning to use Adobe Premiere Pro 2.0.Gerald Sr.

Several years ago, I had Creative Suite CS4 on my Vista laptop and it was working fine for quite sometime until after an update took place. The license then stopped working. I contacted Adobe and their technical support people to find out what might have happened. They gave me several solutions that did not correct the problem. The last resort probably was to wipe the slate clean by reformatting the laptop, which I still have not done. However, I did get CS 4 license transferred to my Windows XP machine which is about ready to bite the dust as it is slow as a turtle at times. I have a Mac now and it has enough memory of 8 GB and 1 TB hard drive to surely support CS5 but my concern is that has there ever been any incidences where the CS5 stopped working on a computer because of a license expiration or any type of licensing issue, which shouldn't occur because the person owns the right to the license?I am seeking to purchase the software but am a little leary because of my previous exper

I try to batch capture or re-capture my footage on a higher resolution, and when it says insert tape and I press okay, it automatically says eject tape and it keeps coming up over and over again regardless how many times I press okay.I have the latest Cs5.5 Premier pro and the camera I am using is a Cannon XL H1A. The fire wire seems to be working fine because the capture panel with the in and out time capture frames is up.does anyone have any theories? I would greatly appreciate it. thank you

Very frustrating and I have spent much time trying everything directed by Adobe to get it to work.   The program tells me that it has been installed successfully but I cannot play any videos of news items that I try.   What is going on???

I would like to know the procedure(s) on how to render a video as an avi file. First,  I had used a program called Virtualdub  1.8 to crop and remove a lot of garbage from the edges of the video.   Second, I'm exporting this video to Adobe Premiere Pro 2.0 to do some color correction.  Third, after the color correction in Adobe Premiere Pro 2.0 , I would like to save this video as an avi file.  I would like to know do I render this video with the color correction effects first, save it, and export it as an avi file? or just export it as an avi file.  I'm new to using Adobe Premiere Pro 2.0.  Gerald Sr.

Today, on two occasions I've gotten an error trying to upload an image from my local hard drive to a thread.  Normally this has been working in IE9 for me, and in fact I've uploaded a number of images today successfully.  It happened once with a PNG and once with a JPEG  The reported problem, in the dialog the software puts up, was simply "Null".Any number of retries to upload the same or different image results in the same failure.I'm going to try uploading one of the very same images that failed before here.  If it fails, I'll capture the screen and upload it to my site, then post a link here.  If it succeeds, well, you'll just have to trust me that it happened. Bah, of course it succeeds when trying to reproduce a failure.Anyone else seeing image upload failures today?-Noel

I would like to parse the text from a formated PDF report into a CSV for import into Excel.If I do a saveas the spaces are collapsed and the formating is not preserved making it hard to parse it out as fields.Is there a way to define fields lengths and do save as .csv or some other method where I can preserve the fields ?Given a PDF that was not based on a scan , and looks like this: I want to define fixed length fields for the 6 fields and export into a csv.Or is there a way to define the report layout and then  export the text as CSV ?

I must say that this profound use of the Helpful Answer button has softened me a little bittle towards Answer Markings:http://forums.adobe.com/thread/911701?tstart=0Clearly, the answer in question, in itself quite uncalled for in its loitering silliness, proved to give the only help possible: comic relief.Note the subtlety: no follow up comments.

All embedded flash objects for all of our client websites have suddenly stopped displaying in the past three/four days.  I haven't changed anything that would cause this.  It isn't a problem having to do with Chrome/Flash Browser settings because the missing flash is seen on three of my computers.  There are are issues with Firefox and Internet Explorer.  Anyone else having these problems?  I have tried to find out on my own but can't come up with a reason or a fix.  I'm pretty desperate because I know that tons of my clients use chrome and if I don't get a fix I'm going to have to take out all of the flash components and go back to static graphics/objects.  Help Please!!!!

I had refered someone to said forum, only to find that one can't post there now. The Illy and Indy Feature Requests are postable; what happened to Pshop?

Wow this place is even more "Jived" than after the first upgrade! (hah)I take a break from this place for a while and return to find this crazy forum software gone bonkers, tabbed navigation gone overboard, silly features everywhere. Anyway...can't the "All Content" tab be selected by default when you click a forum?  It's pretty annoying to have to click that every single time.  The so-called "overview" tab is a complete waste, IMO.  Is there a point to "overview"??

Can anyone help please? My Adobe Digital Editions does not detect my Sony e-reader and does not appear in my bookshelves. My laptop detects the device without any issues but Adove does not - I have re-installed twice but still the same.

As of about 8:30AM, PDT on Oct. 06, 2011, the Adobe Forums have met with a major slowdown.It has taken up to two minutes to load a page, with about the quickest time being in the 30 sec. range.I did not see any notice of maintenance, or similar, but maybe it's taking so long to post that, that it just has not gotten up yet?Anyone else experiencing these horrible page loading times?Hunt

So I went to the Photoshop>Windows boookmark on my phone, and this out-of-date, un-navigable thing came up. NO, NO, NO! I want a WEB view! I suppose at this stage little red flags are too much to ask for, but how do I get rid of this monstrosity?UGH, UGH, UGH,  i HATE IT

Hi, I'm not sure where to put this question so I hope it's okay here.I am looking for an Adobe Certified Instructor in my area (Dublin, Ireland). I looked on the Adobe Find a Partner website but no instructors for InDesign, PhotoShop or Illustrator came up — only training centres and one instructor for Dreamweaver. I know there are people in Dublin claiming to be genuine instructors but I want to ensure I get an Adobe certified instructor. Can anyone tell me if there is a way to check if someone is a genuine instructor with an up-to-date qualification?Thanks in advance!

How does one upload a picture in Private Message?  I see the option to do it with a web address, but unlike the response to messages in a thread,  there is no "Browse" to reference a pictue on user's computer.  Do not remember if this was the same in previous Jive or not.  Never had to send a picture in PM.

I work with Multi Ad Creator (at a newspaper) and prior to sending the file to the publisher we need to convert it to pdf ( we click on the file and so to file, export, pdf).  There has never been an issue doing this but there is now!  When the file gets converted there is a two lined-four sided graphic on the top of my file that I cannot seem to get rid of - what have I done to the program and what can I do to fix this??  The paper ended up being printed with these graphics on them which is not good!
