I downloaded the Photoshop CS3 trial... I finished extracting and I click on Setup. Then a window pops up saying, "Initializing Adobe Photoshop CS3". Then the window closes.
Here are my specs:
1gb Ram
Intel Core 2 Duo
256 MB ATI Mobility Radeon X1400
Windows XP Media Center Service Pack 3
CS4 Trial will not load
I have downloaded the trial version of CS4. When installing the download stops at the Initializing stage with Checking System Profile bar stuck at 90%.
The PC has CS3 and Lightroom installed and both run well. The PC has 500 GB HD and 3 GB of ram I have tried to install with and without the virus checker switched on. I have tried also as Administrator, I have run both Win install clean up and the CS4 Clean Script.
I'm trying to move our Adobe installation from Mac to PC, but I ran into a path problem. A lot of our publications/documents in Adobe Photoshop have linked to pictures in the filesystem (Windows 2008 R2 server). It goes like this:
Â
DTP:Pictures:September:Picture1.tif
Â
And is linked like this directly from Adobe.On the PC I cannot use that path notation and have to go like this:
Â
F:DTPPicturesSeptemberPicture1.tif
Â
When the publication/document in Photoshop have the Mac link "hardcoded" the PC path will not work. Is there a relatively easy way to get the Photoshop on PC to use the Mac link or does one have to change all the "hardcoded" links in the publications/documents?
I am doing a website for a client whose logo font uses a font that I think is by Adobe called Sacker-H The designer sent a zip file containing about 5 files, one of which is AdobeFnt07.lst The others are .bmap files. I am clueless how to intall these on my system?
View 3 Replies View RelatedI am trying to install Photoshop CS 3 and Illustrator CS 3 on a OS running Windows XP Service Pack 2. When I use the setup file, windows invariably gives me an error. It's a generic windows error that suggests you to send a report file to Microsoft - I'm running Windows on russian language and therefore not sure of the exact wording.
Â
Both setups have been known to work before. Note that the windows installation is relatively new, so it's therefore possible I'm missing some system files.
Application manager shows an update to 13.0.2; installing gives the aforemention error. This same error has presented itself previously with extensions manager. The workaround was to download directly from adobe and install - which worked for EM. Does not work for photoshop. Checking for updates within Photoshop CS6 extended finds no updates.
Â
Per the update page, this update provides support for retina displays which sadly is not on my current MBPro. It seems the similar errors are migrating to other installers now. It wouldn't be so bad if the past workaround remained.Naturally, this could be a problem not well commented, as the Illustrator update provides a "not applicable" to this machine response.
I am generating a panorama from 24 RAW files (three rows of 8 images each) using Photoshop Auto Align and Auto Blend Layers and need more control over which image it selects from overlaping images. This image is from the Snake River Overlook and one image has a raft in the river and the overlapping image does not. I have run the Auto Align Layers using all five of the options (Perspective, Collage, etc) and all five show the raft in the river. When I run Auto Blend Layers the raft disappears in all but the Auto Align run using the Collage selection. Is there any way to exercise control of this so the raft does not disappear?

Here's the error from the log:

Â
I'm following this Adobe guide on troubleshooting but have no clue how to address this. I have uninstalled and reinstalled Photoshop 3 times.I am also getting similar errors for pixelbender and Camera Raw:
Â
Adobe Pixel Bender Toolkit 2.5 Update
 Installation failed
Â
 Photoshop Camera Raw 6.6 Update
 Installation failed
The installation of Adobe Extension Manager CS6 failed - while 2 others update for Photoshop CS6 did install. I was installing Adobe Reader X. That's why I discovered the notification from the application manager about updates for CS6 - and I just confirmed that as well.
Â
Apparently the Reader installation blocked only the update installation of Adobe Extension Manager CS6 - saying another installation process was running ... such stuff happens sometimes.
Â
However, it seems Adobes Application Manager update module does not track its failed installations? It does not automatically advertise that update has not been installed and notifying me again to install it. At least not immediately.. So how do I rerun the Adobe Application Manager update module to check for updates manually?
This is on a completely fresh installation of windows 7 x64.Before installing Adobe Creative Suite 5.5 Master Collection x64 autoplay for my camera works, after installation it does not work. If I uninstall it, it works again.Where is this program disabling autorun for devices. Autorun for flash drives works fine, its just the non-volume devices that are affected.
Â
I tried using gpedit and reg keys to re-enable autoplay for the camera but it does not work.When I plug my camera in, I can still go to my computer I can get my pics without any issues, its just that this is bugging me.Don't think there is an answer out there, guess I just need to not be so OCD with this stuff.
After I installed Photoshop CS4 trial, it failed to install Photoshop, but the rest were successful. I went to get more information and this is the message:

I'm running Windows 7 Professional. After updating to the latest version, the app crashes on startup with the message "adobe illustrator CC has stopped working". I need to be able to continue work on projects, so I need to downgrade to a version of Illustrator that will work.
View 1 Replies View RelatedAsus motherboard, i7, 930. 24 gig Kingston HyperX ram. Windows 7 Professional 64 bit. 5 SATA hard drives: 3 are WD 7200s; Driive C is a Plextor SSD and Drive G (where LR and Photoshop are installed), is an Intel SSD.
Â
I've had LR 3 and 4 and 4.1, 4.2 and 4.3. I have several hard drives. All the LR programs are installed on my G drive.
Â
This time when I installed the update to 4.4, it did install on the G drive, but instead of creating a folder in Program Files, all the files, including the executables, simply installed in a long long row under Program Files and under the folders for the previous versions of LR. It did indeed install 4.4, but it's a mess and I can't figure out why there was no folder created.
Â
When going into LR my copyright is gone and all the various styles of copyright I'd created in the Watermarks folder are unavailable. I also have 2 Nik Filters and 2 Topaz filters - they too are unavailable from the upgrade to 4.4. I also had a plugin for Zenfolio which is also missing and I can't find any plugin folder. Where is the plugin folder supposed to be?
Â
It has never been clear to me which folders are supposed to reside on the same disk as the main LR program and which folders can be kept on another drive. Perhaps this is part of why I lost so much information.
Â
I do have backups and I've been able to retrieve a lot - but I would like to be able to have the correct folders in the correct directories and drives. For example, when I updated to the new camera raw and dng, it was installed on my drive C, as it usually is. But the LR 4.4 files installed in a big list, although fortunately on the correct drive. And I have to reset all my settings, all my watermarks, my plugins and my filters.
Â
Why did this happen and what can I do to repair it properly both for the best functioning of LR 4.4 and to not have this repeat itself with the next upgrade.
Every time I try to do something in Photoshop it starts to "Initializing Type Tool".

I've been using photoshop without any trouble, but since I downloaded illustrator & indesign, I can't use the type tool in photoshop - i get a message saying that something is preventing the type tool from initialising... so why would this happen and how can I fix it, I need to be able to use type.

Fortunately, I still have CS6 and it works just fine and dandy, type tool and all. This is all rather frustrating though, since I'm paying for CC and this didn't use to happen. As far as I can tell, CC and all my Adobe CC apps are up to date.
I have the Cs5 Master Suite and just installed my new Wacom Intuos3 tablet. I'm running on a Windows 7. Before installing Photoshop never had a problem starting up - now it crashes without fail every time. I tried uninstalling the Wacom, rebooting, running a virus check, blah blah blah, but nothing works. Photoshop crashes every time, whether or not the tablet is plugged in or installed now.

View 3 Replies View RelatedWhenever I try to start After Effects CC, it gets stuck on "Initializing type engine". This didn't happen on After Effects CS6, and I'm wondering what can be done to fix this. I have about 1,000 extra fonts that don't come with Windows, and if I get rid of them it works just fine. The problem is, without the extra fonts After Effects is pretty much useless to me, and CS6 worked just fine with 7,000+ fonts, so this shouldn't be a problem.

I installed a new harddrive on my laptop and restored a Ghost image of my old drive onto the new one. Most of the installed software worked right off. Some needed to be re-activated as the software detected a significant hardware change. However, PSP X3 would not start, crashing during loading. The PSP X. splash shows and the loading status gets to "initializing palettes" then Windows reports "Corel Paintshop Pro X3 has stopped working. Windows is checking for a solution...". That's it.
I have un-installed PSP X3 and reloaded from CD. I downloaded the 4 existing patches (1 through 4) and installed them in sequence. I didn't try starting PSP X3 until all the patches were in. Corel.com confirms the activation of the software.
I've used PaintShop since the JASC days and the software works great. However, since about version 9, the software has become more prone to crashing under a variety of circumstances. Now it won't start.

There was a time, probably 2012 SP1, when smoke startup would take max. 30seconds.Now with 2012 SP2 after selecting a project smoke just hangs at the "Initializing shades" phase for almost 1min. making startups a major 2min.

I'm installing PS CS4 on Visat 64-bit. The first time I tried installing it the setup stopped when it was loading the Language pack for Device Central.

We have a copy of Adobe Creative Suite 2 installed on one computer that was recently hit with a trojan. The software is still on drive D and is intact. The software was activated a long time ago. Drive C had to be reformatted and the OS reinstalled because of the trojan. I'm trying to reinstall the software since the old registry is gone. I was just going to reinstall over the old version. Since this is an upgrade, it wants the Photoshop 5 CD. We don't know where this is, but we do have the old serial number. When we installed this a few years ago an Adobe tech had us enter a secret keystroke that brought up a box that we could enter the old serial number. I don't remember this keystroke. Q1: Does anyone know the keystroke to enter the old serial number instead of having it search for the CD? Assuming I can enter the old serial number and get past this screen, will a reinstall trash the activation? I do not want to re-activate the product since I assume it will not let me do so. The software was installed and activated on this desktop and on my laptop. I assume it will only let you activate twice. The activation directories are there along with the DAT files, howver. Q2: What can I do to preserve the current activation? And no I can't follow the instructions which would be to launch Photoshop and go to the Help menu and choose Help > Transfer Activation. I can launch Photoshop, but I get an error ""Your Adobe Photoshop user name, organization or serial number is missing or invalid. The application cannot continue and must now exit." The old registry is gone since the OS was reinstalled.
