Re: Cant Connect
We can totally understand the confusion between different Linux distrobutions (versions).
Okay, Ubuntu is what they call a 'debian-based OS'...that means Ubuntu uses Deb packages. Most of the time when you are installing from a package like that and the option for a .deb file is available, then that's the one you want to get.
But before you do that, have you checked in the repositories if your package might be there?
If you have no idea what I am talking about then you can do two things to check:
1) Under Applications, you will find the Ubuntu Software Center. Open that up and type in 'Adobe', if it appears on the list what you are looking for, simply click install.
2)Click on System > Synaptic. This is basically the same as the Ubuntu Software Center but without the bling. It works the same though.
What we advice is that before you go to an internet site to download something, to check if it's in the repositories first. That way it is much quicker and more support for it if it requires extra packages.
Let me know if you need further explaining.
Welcome to Ubuntu
