I have always been slightly amused by the point system and the little crosses since I came back to the forums after a few years away.   I imagine that knowing that someone has answered a lot of questions that have been marked as Correct or Helpful could be a handy indicator to someone new to the forums. Like Bill Hunt for example. It isn't the points as much as the percentage of points as a ratio to the number of posts. It indicates that people have often marked his answers as useful.   Well, the other day I noticed that I had reached 996 points and I was about to get a third marker. Try as I might to be nonchalant about it, since the points are not all that important, it still kind of threw me off when I got stalled at 996. I have had two correct answers lately and yet my points no longer increment.   So, is the system broken? Are my points being held up for review for some reason? Or, is there some other reason? I guess I am just curious about it. I keep telling myself

For most of the past week I have been having to log into the forum every time I visit.  As one who browses here when I get a few free moments from time to time, that makes participating here a fair bit more troublesome.Nothing has overtly changed on my end - I'm still running the same OS (Windows 7) and browser (IE10).  I wouldn't bet a Windows Update didn't cause this, though.Anyone else seeing the same change?-Noel

Are my eyes failing more egregiously, am I having another one of my increasingly frequent senior moments, or has Jive been messing with the typographical color and contrast of text in the forums?For some reason, I'm noticing today a very weak gray text and diminished contrast between text and background?Monitors regularly and often calibrated with hardware pucks.  I had my eyes checked and new prescription glasses in the last few months, now I wondering what other tests I may need.  Or is it really Jive messing with us again?Thanks in advance.

As per the title really.This is the only site that I frequent in which I have to double click the back button in order to exit a thread.Once I'm out of a thread the back button works as normal ie. 1 click.Sooo many times I hit the back button and sit waiting for something to happen, only to remember that I have to hit it again .Am I the only one experiencing this?Win 7 Premium 32Firefox 22

Now i try to say it in my best English: I miss a feature pretty badly. If the path of a shortcut file has changed, it may be restored by a click on "re-link". It used to be, that once the appropriate folder, in which the needed image is, gets selected, the selection jumps straight to the needed image (Basicly the image with the same name as the requested link).   Today, this feature is missing. Here is an example if I could not explain it in the upper rows: I need the image "EAN_7468363846789.EPS" re-linked. The folder in which this data is in is called "EAN CODES 2013". So I'm used to just - re-Link - folder selection - EAN CODE 2013 - open - ((Now the selection jumps magically to the desired image)) -click. Since the CS6, the sequence is as follows: re-link - folder selection - EAN CODE 2013 - open - (reading a lot of EAN Codes... search-search-search... is this the right one? read again - click   In my Opinion the described feature was good. There is no sence i

I purchase a full version of Adobe Master Collection CS5 on eBay and registered it with Adobe. I am now using the Creative Cloud and do not need it anymore but apparently Adobe has a rule that if you purchased it from eBay and/or it was discounted by a high margin that you can not transfer the registration. Does this prevent me from selling it to a someone who does not mind that they can not register it?I guess I am also asking - can someone use a licensed version of the Master Collection - install it on their computer and have full functionality - but not register it?

We all know that these forums are not particularly easy to navigate, especially for newcomers, who frequently end up posting their questions in the wrong forum, Well, something seems to have made things worse, st least in the forum in Spanish. Starting perhaps some two weeks ago, we are getting an increasing number of Spanish-speaking novates posting theit questions in English. At this moment, we have 8 threads started in English in the first page of the list of topics (30 threads).This is an exceptionally large number of lost participants. Unfortunately, none has explained why using a language they do not master when they could use their own, and we have not asked them explicitly for their reasons. To top it, a large proportion of them are of the "one post only" kind, so it would be anyway no use asking them.Anyone have any idea why we have this sudden invasion of messages posted in English in the forum in Spanish? And I don't mean witty ideas, but ideas that might help in solving wha

How can I edit my line attachment point on a callout box

(1) what is the best way to record tutoring sessions live in class to publish to the web for students to access later,Appreciate your help!Krgds,

It is too bad that becuase of Adobe's position in the market place it does not feel the need to maintain a good relationship with its customers. The problem I had was totally my fault - I purchased the CS6 Student Edition for my daughter 6 months ago and she disgarded the packaging (with the product code affixed to the box) before registering the product. I realize that Adobe has no obligation to remedy the situation and apparently they feel the same way. When I contacted Adobe about the problem they said they could not help me and that I should contact the reseller that I purchased the software from. I had Proof-of-Purchase, I had the software disc, how hard would it have been for them to let me send them the disc and have them replace it? This is still a product that costs over $300. even with the student discount. If they felt no obligation towards the purchaser of their product what would a reseller do for me? Well, I did contact the reseller, Amazon, and I cannot sing their praise

Greetings, That's Volodymyr from MacPaw, Company-developer of CleanMyMac (cleaning solution for Mac OS X) here.Some time ago we've stuck with a case when our customers are compaining on the cases that uninstalling one of Adobe's products affects and corrupts other one. From the recent cases was a case that uninstallation of Lightroom 5 corrupted Adobe CC. It rather looks like there are common resources are used for both apps and removing those corrupts other apps. Is there any one here who can help us with that issue so we'll add those resources to the ignore list and won't touch at all in order to prevent any types of corruption? I've just got a funny discussion with a chat support representative who told me next: Sahana: Volodymyr, I do understand your concern, however, without the order number, we are not authorized to assist you further.And while I've asked to call supervisor, it seems he've made same decision: Sahana: I've checked with my supervisor and see that with out the order

I don't receive email notifcations, even though I've selected to do so.  My email address is correct in my profile.  Junk mail is clear.  Any thoughts?

You've made it easy to post ideas in these forums, BUT not easy to see them and Vote on them! I don't think many visitors even know about that feature because it's tricky to find unless you've already posted an idea and check on it in "Your Stuff" and then click the breadcrumb trail...Would be awesome for more people to vote on ideas for each product!Thanks!Aza

How can the email address to which Adobe emails are being sent be changed.  The most recent was sent on August 1 titled: "August 2013: Digital imaging news and events" from "Adobe Systems Incorporated".  There is an unsubscribe link but no "change address" link.  The number to call for help was called but they were unable to help.I have two accounts.  The gmail is old and is receiving emails; it has one license associated with it.  The yahoo has all the other licenses but receivs no emails.  Before having the license transferred the email issue needs to be straightened out.Both accounts have preferences as follows.preferred contact: Emailreceive communications: NoSubscribe to adobe inspire:  gmail no: yahoo: yesAny suggestions?PS.  I did not find a better forum for this issue as it is not product related.

I use to computers to visit these forums: a Mac with OS 10.6.8 and Firefox 22.0, and a laptop with Windows 7 and Explorer 10. Both are connected to the same LAN.Some minutes (?) ago I tried to enter the forums in my Mac and I found that I had been logged out. I did not log in but closed Firefox and moved to my laptop, where I entered the forums normally. On going back to my Mac, I had to log in to enter here.Anyone?

I set up two Adobe IDs, one for private and one for my company. I don't need my private account anymore (the account I used for this post). Could you please delete it?Thanks,Oliver Pink

In my profile, my name and email address have red stars beside them. They cannot be changed even in edit profile. I need to put in my current email adress. Your answers will go to my dead email address, so I'll have to keep checking in here.

Hi Adobe,(please excuse my English- not a native)i call and call and get to an Indian agents all the time. They told me there is no Hebrew support any moreIs this true? Until a month ago we had a wonderful support. there were 2 ladies there and they were the best!! we used to call all the time and always got an efficient, kind and fast service,the pepole in the new support CANNOT  speak proper english, the don't understand a thing i'm saying, have no Idea what Hebrew is.we spend hours and hours on trying to solve the issue- they keep saying they will call you back and they never do!!!!We are loosing money and time over something that is a minimal service for a company that charges so much for the softwares.This is an outrage. Not only does Adobe doesn't give us all the services- and we only have the creative cloud for teams, you charge us more then anywhere else and now we can't even get support in the language of the software???????????Bring back the Hebrew support yesterday!!!!!

so Adobe -listen to this- i have a problem with my Illustrator and i called the Hebrew support. After a life time of waiting- i got to english support,OMG- i an telling you i lost a decade of my life just trying to tell her my email address. my english is not very good but the language she spoke was not english. After almost crying, keep saying- israel, hebrew. she said something that if i understood correct, there is no hebrew support.WHAT???????????My problem is very easy and with hebrew support was solved in 2 minutes. now i an stuck and can't work, so many thanks Adobei know what is bad customer service but this is redicilous.i have hebrew version- u think an indian can help me? didn't you think befure you made this move? can you think of another company that will do it? this is very disrespectful to your customersand there is no where to complain. I need an answer now!! i have to work

I need the collective mind to help with this...I'm interested in finding out if building an Adobe Air App will meet this client's requirements:The Situation:Client currently has product catalog in 3 ring binder.  Product pages exist electronically in PDF format.Case studies and Project Profiles exist in PDF format.Client wants the flash drive to automatically update itself when it is plugged in so their users always have the latest version on their flash drive/allows for printing,saving, emailing latest info etc.Here's the solution they came up with internally and submitted an RFQ to build.1. Put the product catalog on a Flash Drive and have their sales teams hand deliver it to their clients. (Their Reasoning: Their client base is an older generation and prefers having something physical in their hands)(My Response:  Put the catalog on the web. Hide from SERPs using Robot.txt and use ACL/permissions to protect whatever you want)..they insist on using Flash drives...go figure.
