Paul,

If you’re thinking of taking the four-day class in August, you don’t need a special class in advance, you just need to try to practice with your understanding of the workflow, so that you don’t waste class time fumbling around for some commonly-used command.

The basics of color correction haven’t changed much in the last twenty years. Anyone who disregards them won’t get good results regardless of workflow. So our first two days concentrate on those basics, not the PPW. It’s all hands-on, so you get immediate comparison of your work to that of others. Any misconceptions you have will be mercilessly exposed

The class uses few Photoshop commands, so its unlikely you’re going to get into trouble that way.

So I think my advice would be just to practice with the books, and come into the class well rested. It is physically as well as mentally demanding.

Thanks for your interest.

Dan,
I would like to take the Modern Photoshop Color Workflow intensive course in the fall, but have quite a bit of ground to cover before then. I was hoping you could suggest course(s) focused only modestly if at all on image manipulation using photoshop’s many remarkable tools, concentrating instead on a rigorous grounding in the fundamentals (the material in the “Photoshop Professional”). I am looking for courses like your Color Workflow course that are carefully structured, content dense and very challenging. Any course/instructor recommendations would be most appreciated.
thank you

Steve,
Ledet has confirmed that Comcast has blocked certain replies, for reasons known only to themselves. The two parties are in contact, and meanwhile you were sent a message from a Ledet representative, on which I was copied in, so make sure you have received it.

I’m another non-recipient of the link email despite many registrations with 3 email addresses on 2 different computers. Purchase: 3/23/2013, Amazon, Stephen Oliver.
Comcast acknowledges the possibility that ledet.com could be blocked as a potential spammer but apparently can’t tell without a please-unblock form (http://postmaster.comcast.net/block-removal-request.html), which requires IP addresses I don’t have.
I’m using Win 7 and IE 11 and all relevant settings are correct; I also checked my account via webmail.
Contact: Steve Oliver, oliversteve@comcast.net 9/10/14.
(If name and email were collected back in the answer-the-quiz-for-access days, I would have thought they’d have been the same.)
Thanks,
Steve

Fred,
The response is automated, so it must be being intercepted, presumably by a spam filter or a corporate firewall. So first, check your spam folders. If no luck, try signing up again from a different account. If there is still no luck please get back to us.

Pat,

If the college would like to place a bulk order for ten or more students’ books we would be happy to include an extra copy for you. Alternatively if you can show that more than ten books were purchased through other sources and send us a copy of your curriculum, we’d send off an instructor copy.

Keep us posted with your progress, we are interested in knowing how the book is being used.

I am a instructor at a community college and use your book for my Advanced Photoshop course. Can I get a Instructor copy of this book?

Dan,
Sorry for the late reply – I’ve been out of town for the past few days. I have a sneaking suspicion that your comment about most of the problems stemming from operator error applies to my situation too. After I interrrupted the “Rolling Back” message from within AEM, I found that I indeed had PPW 3.3 installed just fine. I’m totally fine leaving well enough alone. I’m not sure what caused the “failure to install” message but if it helps: I did not initiate the install from within AEM; instead I double clicked on the download. Another possibility is that I perhaps already had 3.3 installed so AEM hiccupped because of that???? Anyway, no need for further action.

John,
I have never heard of such an error message.
You may wish to try uninstalling the old version and then reinstalling from scratch. If that doesn’t appeal, to go further, we need a step-by-step rundown of everything you did during the installation process, with the full text of any messages. I assume, for example, that you got an AEM message asking whether you wanted to update.
Additionally, we would need the following information:
*The version of Adobe Extension Manager that opened when you attempted to install.
*Whether your version of Photoshop is correctly listed in the Products panel of AEM.
*If you are using Windows, any version, whether you have attempted to open AEM as administrator (as described above) prior to attempting to install the panel.
*The full name (including suffix) of the downloaded file that you are attempting to install from.
*The version of Photoshop that you are attempting to install into.
*If Photoshop CC, whether it is a trial version or whether you have subscribed.
