The latest suite available is Adobe Creative Suite 6. Creative Suite 2 has come to end of life on 15th of December 2012. Due to this Adobe has turned off its activation servers.

Turning off the activation servers means that the users who have already purchased Adobe CS2 will not be able to re-install and activate the suite. They will receive the error message that the activation server is unavailable. Due to this, Adobe has made Adobe Creative Suite 2 available publicly for those who are having problems with the activation.

Although only the users with purchased licenses are entitled to download and install the available installers along with the license keys, anyone can download and get the product in working condition with a few minutes. You just have to download the appropriate installers for your Operating System and enter the license keys given along side the installers on the download page.

After extraction, you can begin the installation process by running setup.exe inside the extracted folder. The serial keys are provided on the download page which you can copy and paste when needed during the installation process. After the installation, there is no activation required (which is an essential step while installing latest Adobe products).

Now it’s quite easy to have a legal Adobe product without having to go on a torrent site and download a pirated version.

Software , 6 Comments

Adobe has released Flash Player 11.4. It’s still in beta and will be finalized soon. There are quite a few features added to Flash Player 11.4. The most interesting and highly anticipated feature is the background updates feature. Background updates enables our Flash Player to always be up to date without bugging us of new feature updates, bug fixes and security updates. With background updates enabled, users don’t even need a single click to be updated. All the updates are done seamlessly using the background updates feature. To enable background updates, you will need to select “Allow Adobe to install updates” when installing Flash Player 11.4.

Let’s go through some of the main and exciting features of Flash Player 11.4 and then proceed to download Flash Player 11.4:

Concurrency (ActionScript Workers) — This feature enables developers to off-load certain tasks like high-latency operations and long-running computations to background worker processes which helps in avoiding freezes while playing Flash.

Stage3D constrained mode — A new parameter to Context3D has been introduced called “constrained profile”.  Constrained profile allows Stage3D content to run hardware accelerated on more hardware, especially the Intel GMA chipsets. The Starling framework has been updated to be constrained mode ready.

StageVideo.attachCamera — Provides webcam support for StageVideo. This allows developers to leverage GPU acceleration to render webcam video streams.

Camera.copyToByteArray/Camera.copyToVector — Allow efficient copy of the video frames pixels to an existing ByteArray or Vector.

LZMA support for ByteArray — In addition to zlib compression of ByteArray, we are introducing an additional compression type based on LZMA to compress data inside a ByteArray through ByteArray.compress() and ByteArray.uncompress().

Note: Flash Player 11.4 is currently in beta. I am giving the offline installer links for beta software. I will be updating this post when Adobe updates Flash Player 11.4. So stay tuned.

For those who don’t know what Silverlight is, Microsoft Silverlight is a direct competitor to Adobe Flash and Adobe Air and can be used to create web graphics and animations. While Silverlight is not as popular as Flash, it is always a good idea to download and install all the tools that help us in viewing and interacting with the content produced in these technologies.

Software, Windows , , , , , , , , , 0 Comments

Soon after the release of Adobe Flash Player 11.2 final, Adobe has released the first beta of Flash Player 11.3. There are quite a few interesting and exciting features added to Flash Player 11.3 like full screen keyboard input support and protected mode in Firefox browser. Let’s discuss some of the features of the new Flash Player 11.3.

Features of Flash Player 11.3

Full screen keyboard input — This feature enables support for all keyboard keys available to an embedded SWF running inside of a page without full screen mode( except for  ‘Esc’). It allows developers to determine if the app is in full screen, whether full keyboard input is allowed, and whether the app is able to request full screen (determined by the embed tag parameter).

Low latency audio support for streaming audio through NetStream — This feature aims to reduce latency for high quality streaming audio playback. It addresses a very special use case of cloud gaming, where the game is rendered at a server and audio and video are streamed to the client.

Protected Mode for Firefox — Flash Player Protected Mode is a new security enhancement designed to limit the impact of attacks launched from malicious SWF files against Adobe Flash Player when running in Firefox 4.0+ on Windows Vista and higher. This feature is comparable to the Flash Player Protected Mode in Google Chrome browser, Protected Mode in Adobe Reader, and Office 2010 Protected View.

Flash Player background updates (Mac) — New versions of the runtimes can now be delivered more effectively to the end user with this enhanced updating mechanism (Background update is only available in the release versions of Flash Player).

Low latency audio support (Sound API) — This enhancement reduces the latency for Sound.play method and changes to volume and pan on SoundTransform. The latency of SAMPLE_DATA event should also be reduced considerably.

Texture Streaming for Stage3D — Provides an ability to upload coarser, lower quality textures on the GPU first and then progressively improve them as more data becomes available.

You can read these features in detail in Flash Player 11.3 release notes PDF document.
