Using the Community

Well the title sums it up.

when browsing topics NOT on page one, the back button which SHOULD take you back to the forum list on the page where you last were (hence the name "back" button) STILL takes you back to page one, effectivly making it near impossible to read things scrolled off the front page and navigate to the next item.jeez man, this is basic browser functionality!

Extremely misleading and irritating. Absolutely literal.Definitely, in threaded view, you have no idea how many other posts you've missed. In linear view it may not be so bad...

Breadcrumbs at the bottom of the page - very good.The box of forums to choose from in advanced search seems to have grown - the list needs work, but this is good.Photoshop Mac now has a list of useful forum links, only on the Overview page, but, good.Kanguyen in here, being as informative and helpful as possible, sharing the appropriate attitude JC has always displayed. Very good.

In Design view when I use the paste command, a file copy is created in the folder for the page i am working on and no text is pasted.  .  I need to somehow change the select setting because it is selecting the entire page file for copy and pasting.   Any Ideas would be a big help.  Thanks

as seen on the picture you can see the list of all topics i started....now where's the list or link for all topics that i am involved in?

Just an FYI for all y'all.  I notice that when I try to upload images that are larger or as large as the limit  (450px wide) it takes a year and a day (or doesn't work at all) If I resize them myself, they upload instantly.

I need to change the email address in my Adobe profile, I enter the new info in the form but then it says "an error occurred".First time on the new forum, seems quite buggy.

When one starts typing in Search a content window appears below with suggestions.  When I click on one of topics the window immediately dissapears and then message bar in lower left says Done, but nothing comes up.  I even minimized screen to make sure it was not hiding somewhere.  Have seen this problem persist for a few days, but have not seen anything in the forum on it.Is it my system, or a bug?   Using Vista 32 OS.

Adobe Fourms does not work with Opera too well.  I have to use in Opera "Identify as Firefox just to post this message!I also have run into the same junk with Hotmail.Web Design Tip:  Always code for Opera and all other browsers will fall in line most of the time.

This is a genuine, well-known quote by Mahatma Gandhi, the Indian spiritual leader and activist:• A customer is the most important visitor on our premises, he is not dependent on us. We are dependent on him.• He is not an interruption in our work. He is the purpose of it. • He is not an outsider in our business. He is part of it. • We are not doing him a favor by serving him.     He is doing us a favor by giving us an opportunity to do so.Employees of any entity, whether in government or in private business, will do well to keep it in mind and at heart.The recent post by Kathy Nguyen, universally well received here, shows that she knows this principle and puts it into practice.However, a few Adobe staff and associates seem somehow to think that Adobe's customers are lowly adversaries in some sort of Internet game or in a newsgroup.  Those who manifest that misguided and poisonous attitude in this forum and in their blogs are showing their incompetence and their

I noticed that a particular thread which receives new replies doesn't pass the "new reply" status along to the thread index so that the (Updated) text-flag gets appended to the thread title.5.

I have an older version of photoshop. It is CS2 My computer crashed and I am trying to install it onto my new computer. I do not have the 7.0 version anymore does anyone know how I can install it? Thanks Peggy

To restrict searches to posts by particular users, you’re forced to use the Who field of the More Options of search.   But the Who field has several serious design flaws, making it likely that many people will have problems using it:1. The Who field requires that you enter a screen name, not first/last name. The accompanying help and search tips don’t tell you that.  Most users are going to enter the name they see appearing in the message, but if the poster has set the profile option, her first/last name appears instead (E.g. “Barbara Brundage” instead of “Barbara B.”, “John Ellis” instead of “johnrellis”).  This is more likely to occur with frequent contributors.   2. It is very difficult to find the screen name of a member who has chosen to show first/last name.The only reliable way I’ve found to find a member’s screen name is to reply to a message she’s posted and click Quote Previous Message (don’t forget to type a space first).  The member’s publ

1. When you click on a thread go to the place you left off reading. Why Jive can't do this makes no sense Webcrossing did it.2. Eliminate the logging out issue when posting or jumping from forum to forum. Webcrossing could do this in fact you only had to login once and you were logged in forever. Both of these things cause this to be a slow forum now. and that has nothing to do with how slow they actually are.

It says : The following translators were not loaded due to errors: spry.htm: has configuration information that is invalid.... Than I cannot INSERT any pictures or INSERT even tables.... The same message appear everytime... Pls help me what should I do to correct ? I have CS3 dramweaver...Thank you very much for your help...

Having great difficulty getting DW CS3 to load on new laptop with Vista 64bit OS. Anyone have any ideas. Everything I have read indicates that Vista supports CS3.

I just spent about a half hour reviewing a design example in the typography forum, offering that user what I thought was valuable advice. I was logged in at the time, but when I hit the post button, the system decided that I was no longer logged in, and told me that I had to go log in. Of course, my lengthy message was gone, and sorry, but I don't intend to spend another 20 minutes re-writing it.If this system is so callous to chew up my hard work in this way, I have no intention of continuing to use it. Today is my last day of posting on the Adobe Forums, after about 10 years.Good bye to all. It was a fun ride, other than the last few months.

The following Post, relating to Photoshop, for some mysterious reason ended up in the Dreamweaver forum:http://forums.adobe.com/thread/186139?tstart=0

Since yesterday emails from my forum subscriptions reverted to sort into clean threads - this cookie turning the emails into singletons is hopefully gone forever.Many thanks to whoever found the plug ...Dirk

I have made a site that uses many SSI's. It all works fine however now the client needs to present the site without an Internet connection. They want to use Dreamweaver and use a local browser to go through the site. All the links are absolutes since that is the way I understand you need to make SSI links. Is there anyway that I can make the links relative and thus be able to do the presentation.http://www.captneli.com/lessons/Thanks,Nancy

I tried the new forum, but the first things that bugged me were the ActiveX controls that are used. There should be no such controls in a forum. They are a serious security issue. I set my browser to prompt for ActiveX controls and I don't want to press 'no' each time I get a page displayed. Adobe please fix this! Marcus

Okay... no wise a$$ ones , i know what 'Updated' means!What i meant was in the listing, some topics have an "(Updated)" and some don't.So why does that happen? Does it imply that a previous post has been edited?JJ

I don't care, but I'm intrigued by some of the weird and 'wonderful' ways of these forums. So I went to a 'Top Participants' box and clicked 'show all participants'. I wonder if I'm the first to bother with this - it really is extraneous fluff.Anyway, rather than all participants, I got the names of the top three only. Followed by a list of posts by a whole range of entirely different people. I'd really love to get rid of these speed-consuming twiddly bits, that don't even work as advertised, and get these forums stripped back to what is quick and useful.

Here's the thread:http://forums.adobe.com/thread/416472?tstart=0Please see kanguyen's responses. If only we had more like 'k', i think half the angst felt in the switchover would have been reduced.John C is, of course, another one.Three cheers for John C & Kanguyen!
