Photoshop :: Using CS5 On Bootcamp
Nov 19, 2013
I have Photoshop CS5 installed on my OSX. I'm planning to install windows 7 via bootcamp. I read a long time ago there was a way I can get a windows key for my same program for a reduced price? Or am I mistaken? I can't remember where I read it. I think it was buried in a forum somewhere and not among the top posts. I don't know what validity it had.
That said, do I have to buy a whole another copy to use on the windows partition? I hope not. It would be nice to be able to run photoshop on both partitions without too much extra cost. But if it costs a whole new copy of photoshop I'll have to accept having to reboot my computer between using photoshop and the windows programs I am editing for.
I had to edit this. Parallels is something I really want to use. I keep getting those mixed up. Right now the cost is out of my budget, but parallels is another alternative I am hoping for in the long run and saving up for. I'm thinking of getting it in a few months. I still wish there can be a more streamlined way I can transfer graphic files between both partitions without having to jump through a lot of hoops.

I have recently purchased a MacBook Pro and originally thought that I would be able to switch between boot camp and parrallels to run Inventor. After reading several threads there seems to be a problem with the Inventor Licience breaking if you switch from on environment to the other.
Has tried using the Lic. Transfer Utility when switching between the two. I know it sounds like a hassel, but shouldn't that work? I sure that isn't how it Utility was designed, but since the program thinks that you have changed computers?
I haven't tried this personally, but really that Inventor running thru boot camp would be the best environment for serious work and I could use parallels when I need to less intensive design or review?
I have loaded parallels 6 and windows 7 as a virtual machine with boot camp. I haven't loaded Inventor but plan on doing that today?

I have files given to me by my teacher who works in an architecture firm. The files open on our school computers (Windows) and display the text that blocks such as those for sections and annotations have. However on my MAC i am running WINDOWS7 on bootcamp. The text is missing when i import or open the dwg files with the blocks.

I have been designing a school project for the last 2 months using the student version of inventor 2014. The realistic views have been working the whole time before but now it is not working. I click on it, and it just switches back to shaded view. If I click on shadows, or reflections I get the following message.
"One or more visual effects in use are not supported by the current system graphics hardware. We strongly recommend running the Diagnostics check in applications option for detailed information.Would you like to run hardware Diagnostics now?"
After selecting Yes I get the following,The graphics driver is fully certified.

I started to get this strange error with my Photoshop when making a new document in Photoshop and got the following error: "cannot initiate Photoshop because Photoshop cannot create any more windows".
I thought the easiest thing to do would be to reinstall (Photoshop needs reinstalling extremely often unfortunately), but now when I try and open the program it just give an alert beep and closes back up. Even though I rarely use ImageReady, I opened that up to check and it does the same behavior.

Can anyone tell me what color settings I need to set in photoshop in order to avoid this from happening? It only happens once in a while and I don't know what I've done to fix it or screw it up. What happens is that when I'm in photoshop and I do a "save for web" my document jumps to image ready and when viewing '2 up' for optimization purposes and comparison, I realize that the original view is actually duller in color and does not look like the original in photoshop. The blacks are definitely not as black.

when I got my first Macintosh IICX and all of my MacPaint clip art. I don't want to get rid of the clip art because since I'm still using a black ink printer and not upgrading to a color one, the clip art looks nice in newsletters and the like.
Up until this time I had been using SuperPaint which had the New Superbits editing plug-in to refine the pictures so they had the smoother and cleaner lines instead of looking jagged. With my new computer and printer, I'm also getting Photoshop CS packaged with Adobe Creative Suite Premium, which I have never used before. Since I have not received my order yet, I was wondering if anyone could tell me whether Photoshop has the capability of improving the older MacPaint clip art like SuperPaint did with the New SuperBits editing plug-in. Over the past two days, I have been trying like crazy to back-up my pictures with SuperPaint and then re-saving them with Graphic Converter. It's been so incredibly slow that I thought I would go ahead and ask you, the experts, if Photoshop can also improve the quality of my older MacPaint clip art or if I should continue to back-up my clip art like I have been doing.

I have just got back from the Elbow gig and pulled the images off the card. They load up in Bridge but don't have actual picture thumbnails. They are named correctly, ie: IMG_3483.CR2 but they won't open!? Error message says 'Could not complete your request because Photoshop does not recognise this type of file'
I could see them on the back of the camera.
mac users... i did a software update the other day and I noticed that there was an update for ACR. Could it have been something to do with that? And why can't I find ACR in my Applications?

of Adobe Photoshop v6.0.1 (quite old, I know, but it do all I want and on my old HW I did not plan/want to use any more recent version, because they are HUGE and with just a little preferences trick, I did not need to reinstall my PS - ever ), yet as Czech user, I need my software to type some special characters as well. These are looking like this:
[URL]...
Now the only problem is, that some of them PS just refuse to type. Seven small and seven caps are just wrong. See the line "for PS:"...
I battled the problem even by editing the fonts itsels, because that seems to work with Adobe Illustrator, yet this also cause the edited fonts to be useless in another programs. So I looked deeply and in the Adobe settings in directory Fonts / Reqrd are directory CMaps and perhaps editing the character map used will be better and usable solution? how to do it or even determine with file from the 96 files in the CMaps directory are right now used by Adobe Photoshop?

when I try to save a tagra file with a alpha channel in photoshop 7 the box for the alpha channel is greyed out, with an warning sign next to it, and the line below stating "file must be saved as a copy with this selection" When I examine the saved file the alpha channel is not there!
Has anybody got any idea why?
My old version of photoshop 6, allows you to save alpha channels!

the soft edge feature of the eraser and the brush no longer work. I can go into the pallet and choose a soft edge eraser or brush, but it comes up hard edge. When I try to use the marquee box with a feather to get a soft edge, I again get a hard edge. I've used this technique a lot, so I think I'm doing the method properly. I have removed the preference files a number of times and have trashed the old Photoshop and reinstalled Photoshop 3 or 4 times,

I am working on someone elses computer and the Software settings are different. The old owner does not use this computer anymore. The swatches are set and I would like it to function how it usually does, etc. I mean, even the transparent swatch on the tool bar is not there anymore, so when I use the pen path tool, I get these white and black fills which makes it difficult for me to see the path I am meant to be following.
How do I reset Photoshop so that I can customise it the way I want it? Reinstalling the softwares is not an option.
I would like to reset Illustrator, Indesign, Dreamweaver, etc.

I have to build a website named Hollywood Movie Wallpaper . I've already gotten the pages done using adobe photoshop. This means that I know exactly what I want on each page and I've done the whole page by adobe photoshop. However, most website host needs the file to be in html in order for it to appear on the web. Is there any way to change an adobe photoshop image into a html file without changing the layout or anything? Coz it was hard work designing the layout and inserting the content into adobe photoshop image.

A co-worker needs to be able to access certain files that I have created in Photoshop CC. These files are saved as TIFFs, and as part of my workflow, I have just about everything in Groups. She currently has Elements 10 on her system, but that absolutely does not permit access to the Groups and the components within. Because of her job duties, I cannot necessarily justify adding her to the CC account since she does not need PS, AI, ID, or any of the other applications as I do. However, I can easily justify upgrading her to Elements 12...provided it does what we need it to.

any editing I do in photoshop will now seem to need to be manually added to Lightroom...which I do not even want to contemplate. When I rightclick on an image and select Edit in --> Photoshop CS6, nothing happens...Photoshop does not open as it used to. I'd thought it might be Nik Collection trial or OnOne photo suite trial I'd installed, but I uninstalled both and restarted my computer, and the problem still exists. I'm using the current creative cloud version of both lightroom and photoshop.

When I use the spell checker in Photoshop CS5 to check a text layer, it always tells me there are no errors, even when I know there are, so it's a useless exercise. Where is the spellling dictionary installed, and how do I make sure it's working properly?

I currently use Photoshop CS2, but I also encountered this problem on Photoshop Elements 4.0.
Whenever I am working in Photoshop, my blue looks purple, my red looks orange, but my green seems ok, however when I save it, the colour is different. I know it is not the gamma because that affects everything, not just how Photoshop looks (I'm pretty sure). If someone could help me and tell me how much of a loser I am and give me some simple solution, that would be great because it's a pain not being able to see what it is really going to look like without saving it and looking at that.
Here is what I am talking about, a screenshot and the saved .png: ....

actually, it's the lack of anit-aliasing whenever I use the 'Free Transform' tool.
Is there a button that toggles aliasing on and off?
Thought I knew Photoshop well, but after scouring the preferences and what-not, I'm stumped.

I made a graphic, hosted it on a site, and looked at it in a browser. For some reason, the colors in the image look darker than how it does in Photoshop.
What do I need to do to make them both look alike or maybe I should be asking, "How do I make Photoshop display the color it will show as in a browser?"
If it's any help, I'm using a working space of "Adobe RGB 1998." Is this correct for web design work?
