Adobe PhotoShop 12.05, Illustrator 15.0.3 and AAMEE

[Munkeee]

I've been trying to create a package using AAMEE for the new CS5 patches. Only problem is AAMEE only shows the past releases (12.0.4, 15.0.2). I tried importing the patches manually, but they still revert to the old versions. This did work fine with PS 12.1.1. I've reached out to Adobe, but they have given me nothing so far. Trying to create a snapshot patch with Composer, but I'm not holding my breath that this will work.

Anyone have any advice or experiencing the same problem? I'll post again if the Composer route works.

Might want to post to the AAMEE list...

AAMEE 2 was so picky about creating patches, I found that it was a lot easier to set up an internal Adobe Update Software Server (AUSST), package up the AdobeOverrides settings to point to it, and just script Adobe Updater to run once a month (more often when major new app updates were released). Scripting the AAM to run meant the user only had to click Update, no admin creds required.

Added benefit of also getting Camera Raw and the like updated.

Yea not a huge fan of pushing patches in environments that are inconsistent...looking forward to RUM.
