The information from Dav's tutorials (an Adobe guy) make it sound so simple, as do the other tutorials I can find on YouTube (because the Adobe TV site does not address the issue). But do I really have to download the WHOLE Premiere Pro CS6 simply to gain access to Encore, only to have to delete the Premiere CS6 files from my computer, just so I can use it with CC?? What kind of sense is that?
Why can't I just download Encore and be done with it? I'll tell you why: because Encore cannot be found anywhere in the list of available Apps, or here on the CC website, at least not that I can see, and I've spent the last hour searching for it and have made absolutely no progress. I'm supposed to deliver seven projects on DVD tomorrow for a client, so this is a REAL problem, the kind of problem that makes me long for the days when you could pick up the phone and call someone (there are no contact numbers on this website) or drop a note to support (there is no e-mail address for support on this site either). Of course in this day and age, if there was a live chat option, it would probably not be included in my membership and I would incur additional charges for opening a support ticket. Excuse me for being cynical.
Another beef: I subscribe to CC, but the school I attend runs CS6. I can open a CS6 project in CC, but if I work at home, I can't access the changes I've made in CC because they won't open in CS6.
So, if I have to download CS6 in order to get Encore, I feel I should delete CC and work in CS6 just for compatibility. The problem with that is that I'll lose access to the couple of dozen projects I've completed for clients in CC already, plus the others that I'm currently working on.
Please, someone provide me a fix.
