<div dir="ltr"><div>Here's what's odd: </div><ol><li>I acquired the first download for TCS 5 on 2014.01.21, the day I subscribed and paid for the yearly plan. Insofar as I knew it was not a 'trial version."Although it's somewhat of a trial in the effectivity sense.
</li><li>Two weeks ago, Adobe Application Manager announces an upgrade for Frame 12 along with one for Acrobat XI Pro & I install both at the same time. I go to Frame and it's SUBAR. [Shrunked Up Beyond All Repair.]</li>
<li>I de-install it, then I re-install the one from the first download. No more SUBAR. Hurray, I'm back in the saddle again (clippity clop, clippity clop).</li><li>The next day, on computer start-up, Adobe Application Manager say's "howdy" and I look at the Frame 12 patch = same number as before. Not heeding the words of Gary Cooper, I decide to try it one more time, thinking that Acrobat is upgraded and looking AOK, maybe it's an anomaly (no-see-um = biting insect, smaller than a bug). Same result as in 2., above. <strong><em>What did Gary Cooper say, I know you're asking?</em></strong></li>
<ol><li>"Ain't no horse that can't be rode." [Reference to Joan Crawford is impertinent.]</li><li>"Ain't no cowboy that can't be throw'd." [He loved and lost, it's been said.]</li>
</ol><li>Once more I repeat the de-install re-install process. Another Hurray.</li><li>Later in the day, within Frame, I decided to check for updates, and there was one suggested; the version was the same as in Adobe Application Manager. For a change of pace, I try the in-Frame patch & once more I got on the horse and got off the horse with ready assistance from the horse. [How does this horse know Gary Cooper?]</li>
<li>Two days ago, having heard from two of Adobe's Frame Wizards about their interest in horses, I decided to de-install all of TCS 5, and re-install only Frame. Then I applied the patch & it failed, so I repeated the de-install re-install of Frame, then Acrobat; both worked; then the other parts; they look OK & I assume they work.</li>
<li>Yesterday, Adobe Application Manager say's hello and this time I see lots of patches for TCS 5 but none for Frame. I install the patches, check to see if they are sober = AOK, I reopen Frame, go to updates, and it tells me I am up to date. Yippee. I check the Frame version I am using and it is the same one which proceeded this merry go round. <em>Someone is trying to corral the horse.</em></li>
<li>Today, in Frame, I recheck for updates and I am up to date as in #8. Frame update gives me it's blessing,<em> the Horse is not running in The Preakness!.</em> </li></ol><div>Conclusions:</div><ol><li>Frame's wiz kids will re-patch the patch, and it will reappear refined and sober-like.</li>
<li>If Adobe goes into the merry-go-round business, I'm gonna ride a Tiger or a Lion; I'm cautious about their horses.</li><li>Adobe's Suites should include Dramamine: download once, don't toss many!</li>
