Hi,I trust this is the right place to post this suggestion. I'm a newbie. Today I wanted to post a question on the Acrobat for Windows forum. I had already logged in and could see my screen name in the top left corner. No matter where I clicked/looked, I could NOT find a way to post a question. After about wasting 1/2 hour, finally in extreme frustration, I called technical support. It was there that I learned that logging in with your user Adobe ID does NOT log you into the forums.  This is sooooo counterintuitive it makes me want to rant. But, that isn't going to help the Adobe webpage designers make the website a better place.So, Adobe, if you are paying attention to this, I urge you to redesign the webpage. Either make the login ubiquitous across Adobe for the user, or add some clear instructions to the forum page that alerts the user they need to click on the login button again on the left side of the page. By the way, the support person I spoke to "bent the rules" to help me

Two years ago I purchased the Adobe CS4 suite at an educational discount (I work at Columbia Univ.) that came to over four hundred dollars. After going through what seemed like an overwrought and needlessly complicated procedure to get a serial number, I installed the software. Recently I upgraded to a new computer and discovered that the email that contained the serial number had been inadvertently deleted. So I called Adobe to get it again. Even though I had registered the product and even though the person on the other end of the phone had all my information in his database, he refused to give me a serial number unless I could "prove" that I purchased it. This means tracking down the purchase on a two year old American Express statement, but even then I was led to believe by the Adobe employee that this might not be good enough. God knows what they are looking for.In all my years of purchasing software *legally*, I have never run into such a brick wall. I am thoroughly disgusted and

I was recently in a fire (December 2010) and my Creative Suite Design Premium Student Edition was destroyed along with my new MacBook Pro.  I have contacted Adobe since April 20111 to try to acquire a replacement and have had no luck.  First off, I have received automated responses are that are not even a live person.  For example, I explained my situation and that I obviously don't have my serial numbers anymore because they were detroyed in the fire.  Adobe's response, here are your serial numbers, I am sorry you are having a hard time installing your software.  Does that sound like a live person or perhaps a person that does not care.Secondly, I submitted my proof of purchase (my mom had purchased the computer and Suite for me).  All the information was available right on the sheet I submitted.  They came back and asked me for the e-mail address of my mother so they could look up her student account.  This was after I explained I was the stude

Hi, I'm working on a big animation project.  I'll be doing everything from the concept art to the actual animation, but I need a new monitor.  My budget is around $350.  At the moment I'm planning to buy the Samsung LS27A350HS.  I want a 27" inch monitor for this kind of work, and I was told this was the best for the price range.  What are you thoughts?  Is there a better monitor I should be looking at?  I found a used Dell 2707wfp for $400, but I don't like the idea of not having a warranty.

Hi all,I would like to search a single forum for a search query. Is this possible in Adobe Forums?I see only the "Search Forums" field on the top right of the page where I can do a search over all forums. This is not what I would like to do (imagine LiveCycle with a bunch of forums).How can I search only one forum?Thanks.Paul

Hi This is a question for an admin or general forum but they do not exist.I only joined this group two weeks ago. I have signed up to receive emails from 5 threds. Each email tells me how to un-subscribe.Problem is i am receiving emails from everyone on the plannet who has subscribbed to adobe. I get between 300 and 400 emails a day.No Admin contact us here. If there is a simple url would help. I have clicked on support but this only takes me to software support. They are less than helpful.

2 days ago I posted a question one of the DreamWeaver (General questions Area) about Dreamweaver Crashing when you click on Live view.So far I've only heard crickets. No Responses.Any suggestions where to post??I'm sure Jockem will come down with iron boot saying this is only for discussions of forum ProblemsWell this is a forum problem in that where do you go to ask question about operation and bugs DW.

I used dreamweaver cs5.5 to design my site and my images dont display on the website with my flash.

How in the world can I view my individual posts where I answered questions but didn't start the discussion? Any post I make in a discussion should automatically set me as part of the discussion and show up in "discussion" under "my stuff"... I can't find my previous posts and it's frustrating that this forum lacks this simple ability because now when people post similar questions I can't link them to my answer!!

I am completing a short animated film. The film has been complied in Premiere CS5 as a series of Quicktimes. The film is four minutes. It looks fine in Premiere, but when I export it two of the scenes are now only in shades of blue. I moved the scenes to a different part of the drive (they looked fine) and re-imported them. Still the same blue when exported. Does anyone know why this is happening? I have a screening tomorrow and am in a panic. Thanks.

G'Day,I am wondering if it is possible to make the hyperlinks in my PDF document (these are internal relative hyperlinks) visible -- so that when you print the document you can see the hyperlink (blue underlined part) in the document?  At the moment, I print my document...and none of the underline parts (hyperlinks) are visible on the printout.  I have researched this but can't seem to find any info.  Also, is there a way to check my PDF document to see what dpi it has?  The forums all say that this is not possible, but surely there is a way to view it or at least set your pdf to a particular dpi.  I would appreciate any insight.NickBrisbane, QLD

I have seen this on a limited basis over the years, but it seems to have gotten worse very lately.The problem is that one makes a Reply to a thread, and then wishes to edit that Reply, sometimes in just moments, but it is not possilbe. The Edit button is not there.I understand that if another has Replied to my Reply, the Edit button goes away, or is supposed to. In these recent cases, there are no Replies, even hours later, but I keep loosing the ability to edit some of my posts, just like there WERE Replies to the post.Going back, this happened to only a thread, or two, over several months, but now it's happened to me about 5 times on the product forums - mostly in the Premiere hierarchy. Some posts CAN be edited, but some cannot.This is not a timing thing, that I can tell, as the Edit button has been missing from my posts of some hours ago, or some that were JUST posted. It seems to be intermittent, but is very frustrating.FWIW - I'm running updated Chrome, though in the past, when i

There used to be a Search this forum button in the Illustrator forum, but now it has disappeared altogether.While it was still there, some of us had hopes of its beginning to work again, some day, maybe.But now it is gone.What about other forums?Any hopes left?
