Adobe GoLive - 9.0

Hello,

I have tested GoLive 9 and Dreamweaver CS3.

Both apps don't work for me in order to maintain and update all my websites and client sites I have developed using GoLive CS2, CS1 and earlier versions.

I really depend on using GoLive for the future.

I am willing to pay for a GoLive 8.5 update where all major bugs of GoLive CS2 are fixed. The maintenance update of Adobe GoLive 8.5 should work on PPC and Intel machines.

Anyone else?

C'mon, do us a favor Mr. Shantanu Narayen. (Future CEO of Adobe Inc.)

Hello,

I am wondering if anyone at Adobe is aware of how much work and time investigation is needed to create and submit some really good and detailed bug reports.

With the release of Adobe GoLive 9.0, I have the impression that all my efforts, ideas and bug reports landed somewhere in a huge trashcan at Adobe.

If I knew this, I would have saved a lot of time (and money). It just makes me wonder, since some of my submitted bugs were even confirmed by the Adobe support team.

Very rude and dishonest behaviour.

From what I can see here, many good ideas and features from Adobe GoLive were transfered to Adobe Dreamweaver. Hm, so I am asking myself. If the GUI concepts and functions from Adobe's point of view were "good" and "useful" enough to be transfered and implemented into Adobe Dreamweaver, why did they kill the features in Adobe GoLive.

Does it make sense? Anyway ...

So, to take the last breath of this once so greatly appreciated web development software from Adobe, I came up with another totally psychotic and crazy idea.

I would suggest that Adobe starts implementing a tiny algorithm into their software. Every time the user launches an "older" software version of their suite of applications, the speed of the application itself will decrease a couple of milliseconds. Thus, the applications' speed and performance will get more and more slowly over time. Just a little bit, so that the user will not notice the difference and so that the user might think after some time:

"Oh, I really believe it's time to get a faster computer and a new software version."

What do you think Adobe? You could make a deal with Apple, this way both parties gain a considerable profit in making MORE and MORE sales.

Hello,

I forgot to mention in my prior posting, that the fans of my PowerMac G5
started to blow like hell after I have clicked the "Activate" button in
Adobe's software activation application on the second request.

It seems like a one time activation is not enough for Adobe. Adobe requests
to activate the software a second time after quitting and relaunching the
application.

I have noticed the blowing fans and the noise a couple of minutes later.
I tried to restart my PowerMac G5 without a chance. The computer
was no longer responding to mouse or keyboard inputs. However, the
fans of my G5 started to get louder and louder and reached a noise
level like a vacuum cleaner and I thought the computer could blow
away every minute.

I needed to press the power button of my G5 in order to shut down my
computer entirely.

This is somewhat strange, since I did not even touch my G5 after
clicking Adobe's software registration button "Activate". Right after
doing this, I continued working on my PowerBook for a quite a while
after I noticed the blowing fans of my G5.

I have never made similar experiences as long as I am working
on my G5 computer.

Someone posted on the Adobe forum that it has something to do
with my room temperature. Ridiculous. No, it has nothing to do with the room
temperature in my office. Definitely not and my office is not a "sauna".

Well, I am not able to peak into the data jungle and the deep and
vast universe of my operating system, however I believe I have a quite
confident power of observation.

Hello,

I have a question concering Adobe's software registration over the
internet.

I moved from Germany back to my hometown in France last summer.

When I connected my workstation and PowerBook and launched
Photoshop on my main computer from my new office in France for the
first time, I remember very well, that Adobe asked me to register my
software once again over the internet.

Otherwise I would not be able to work with any of my installed
Adobe Creative Suite CS2 applications.

Well, I was a little surprised, that Adobe was asking me again
to register my software, even though I had no problems working with
my apps from my old office in Germany before moving to France.

Adobe requested to register my software over the internet twice(!)
in order to continue working from my new office in France.

The same procedure happened only a couple of weeks ago, when I visited
my sister in Germany for celebrating her wedding.

I took my Apple PowerBook and my installed Adobe Creative Suite
CS2 applications with me in order to continue working from Germany
using a dsl connection of a friend.

When my wife and I returned to France after two weeks and I connected
my computers using my dsl connection in France, Adobe asked me once
again(!) to register my software as I launched Adobe GoLive CS2 from
my office in France.

I needed to make the software registration over the internet twice(!) in order
to continue working with my Creative Suite CS2 applications.

Is it normal, that Adobe keeps asking me to register my software, each
time I am changing my locality?

Have "networkers" out there using Adobe Creative Suite CS2 made
similar experiences with Adobe's software registration?

I mean, it is not Adobe's business to know at what time I am working
from where using Adobe's software applications. Assigning a serial
number to a personal name is as easy as making a search & find query
in a serial number management database. I mean, I do have a privacy!?

If so, why Adobe keeps requesting to register my software again and again?
