Typical Adobe bulshit

Feedback Type:  Review

Contributed by: grh-svo Wednesday, January 07 2009 @ 09:45 PM PST

Product Platform: MacOSX

Used Product For: 1-6 months

Recommend Product: NO

1 Try to move the app into your preferred location — need user codes to authenticate!

2 Try to rename it to (for example) include the version number and/or remove the manufacturer's name from the app, both of which I prefer to do — permission denied!

Also, the user interface is ugly, boring and un-mac-like. Mid-grey type on dark grey background...are they mad?

Look in vain for a preferences menu item.

Scroll triangles don't work. Good thing I have a scroll wheel on my mouse. No elevator in the scroll bar either

"sign in?" Why should I? Oh yeah, it's those Adobe asholes again.

I have a simple remedy for such hubris and arrogance...

Typical Adobe bulshit - versiontracker2007

The things you're trying to do are stupid. They will a) prevent the software from working. b) make it all but impossible to update it.

Apparently you didn't take the BIG GIANT hint when you were asked for admin access to perform these changes.

This ain't Mac OS 7, buddy. Times have changed. Get with the program.

Typical Adobe bulshit - Gennx30

heres what:
1. use the AIR uninstaller....
but wait!
2. DL easyfind™ and then type 'AIR' and then 'Adobe AIR' then delete all files on volume-invisible and visible
plenty of AIR left behind. sad.
