Can we just call it "trouble"?

I usually just call it a god-damned, effin, sonuvabitchin' pain in the ass, but "trouble" is quicker to say (if less satisfying)... ;)

Those without current CC are now in the situation of pleading with their customers for save-downs or PDFs. And the inverse relationship between up-to-datedness and dezinger skill applies.   :death:

...which is probably the majority of users. Fuck, I'm still running CS3/CS4 with no plans to upgrade, ever.

Dezingers are so stupid they seem shocked when asked to downsave or PDF, as if the entire world also updates their software within 18 minutes of an upgrade. KILL THEM.

That's if you can actually get a designer to downsave a file. Most are so clueless that it's almost impossible.

Not that they are smart enough to google how to downsave.

I'd rather have stories told than be telling stories of what I could have done.

One of us is smart enough to figure this shit out. If Macroshaft can make a free powerpoint viewer app, and adobe can make the free version of acrobat reader, there's got to be a way to drag-and-drop a newer CC file and save it down to a CS file automatically, without having CC.

All I know is I feel it especially incumbent upon me to watch for pleas like Slappy's now. And work on my turnaround time.   :laugh:  Sorry, it's not funny.  :slapownwrist:

OK, my 27" iMac is dead and back at the Apple Repair center for who knows how long. Hard drive died so I lost all of my CS6 apps. I do not own CS6 at home but have always used the work 2nd activation for my home iMac. So for now I am using my old iMac and need the Adobe apps so I signed up for a trial of CC (30 days) and I have installed all of the apps. One thing, I think someone asked earlier about installing Acrobat XI and keeping earlier versions, when I installed Acrobat XI it warned me that it would uninstall all previous versions of Acrobat. Anyone else seeing that? I think I'm going to fork over the $29.99 per month for my own copy. My freelance work will cover that easily. So I think I will have CC soon.
