Jasker, thanks for the links. I have read through each of these at least 10 times trying to find out why Version Cue wasn't enabled by default. My complaint is that the technote explaining WHY it's not enabled by default and why it isn't a good idea to enable it yourself, didn't appear until after people are having serious issues.

I understand it's not the greatest idea to tell everyone you're shipping a not quite polished product, but at the same time, people need to be made aware so we can avoid these kinds of things. I know not everyone used Version Cue in CS3, but for those who did, it's absence from CS4 was especially curious, and the people who wanted it found a way to enable it.

My biggest concern/question was this though: If Drive is connecting to a PHYSICAL networked place in my studio, why is it not SAVING my file regardless of whether or not it's checked in? Even if I create a file, locally or actually inside of the server, it is considered checked out initially. Well, if I attempt to check in every time I save it, there will be 50 versions as much as I save (and I know I can speak for several others here). So, unless I wait to check it in until I am finished, (which is normally several hours later), as the workflow dictates, it is never actually saved.

This tech note:
 <http://kb.adobe.com/selfservice/viewContent.do?externalId=kb405502&sliceId=2>

doesn't really apply here because I am not quitting Flash and the file is saved (well, I am saving via Ctrl-S, but that doesn't seem to actually be saving as it turns out.) Either way, I see why it wasn't enabled by default because of the bugs that exist, and I will not be using it until the patch is released. That said, once the patch IS released and fixes all the things I have noticed (such as labels and ratings not being transferred or even available once on the server, Bridge not being able to see networked drives that haven't been mapped through Drive, and things involving the entire discussion above) I will probably use it again.

Thanks Jasker for your time and attention. It is much appreciated.
