[alt-photo] Re: TANGENTIALLY ON TOPIC: HELP W/ CS-5 & SCANNER?

[Rita Bernstein]

Bob,
My tech guy was trouble shooting my problem and did the online chat thing
with Adobe, who directed him to the download.  I have had excellent
experience
with the tech support folks at Adobe so maybe give them a try.  I really
miss my
Windows XP and rue the day I decided to "upgrade."  Windows 7 (64 bit ) has
been
a complete nightmare...mostly incompatible with all my devices.  I'm sure
the
Mac people are laughing, rightfully so.
Best,
Rita
