ACDSee ya...

ACDSee ya...

2006-06-10 by David Keenan

I guess that this is something of a flame but I just have to get this frustrating program off of my chest.

I gave using it the ole college try even through a few updates but it is still a failure in my opinion.

I want to like it but among some minor issues, it crashes on me at all the wrong times especially with large tiff files, so bye-bye ACDSee.

Dave.

David,

I've used various versions of ACDSee for years and found it a fairly 
stable program in most of its versions. I do have some minor issues with 
it, but end up coming back to it for various purposes.

The main issue I currently have with it is that it can leave a lot of 
temporary files on the disk, I think when other software I'm using 
crashes. 

So I'd suspect your problem is due to some particular peculiarity with 
your system rather than to ACDSee. I have had similar problems with some 
other software, which works fine for most people but hangs my system. So 
though I sympathise, I don't think your complaint is fair to ACDSee.

Regards,


Peter Marshall

Dave-

I used ACDsee since it was "classic" and gave up on them.

I now use a free app:  http://www.faststone.org/FSViewerDetail.htm

try it... it's what ACDsee what originally... and free, like ACD was 
as well.

cheers,
