Re: [Avid-L2] Notice from Adobe to un-install suddenly unauthorized CC versions

Hello Knut,

For some reason your reply has not yet shown-up on the Avid-L2, or at least not in the browser version I was looking at.

I too checked the available install lists for a few Adobe apps via the Adobe CC Application Manager and found that all of the older versions are no longer available. Quite an unprecedented purge in my opinion since there are many valid reasons to install older versions on certain workstations. I have a feeling that there will be quite a lot of anger and pushback over this.

David

I have not received this message, and I have several of these "unauthorised" versions of AE and Premiere etc installed on various machines. I'm up to date on the CC lic, and have noticed that all of the older versions are now missing from the install list.

Hello all,

This may be considered a bit OT, but in our shop it certainly intersects with our Avid workflows, so here goes. Has anyone else received this email notification today?

We are still using several of the now-banned versions of CC due to either legacy project and media support, or because of show-stopping bugs in more recent versions of CC apps.

We're intensely curious to know how our colleagues feel about this announcement and what it will mean for their own work.
