Photoshop :: Will System Restore Lose CS6 Activation
May 8, 2012
I've lost both of my Raid0 arrays on start-up today, and Win7 start-up repair has not fixed it, so I am looking at a System Restore. I'll probably have to go back to before I installed CS6 full release, and I am wondering if I am going to remove CS6 with the Restore without decativating it.  My Program files are all on my SSD boot drive and OK, and I have full backup for the two raid0 arrays.

I have started using PSE 8.0 and have been enjoying it for editing photos and creating slide shows. Last week, though, I started to get BSOD whenever I go to Edit. No big changes to undo with system restore.

creative cloud says cs6 and photoshop cc are up to date so I cannot install from there. this laptop is giving me grief ie MSPaint won't save in png and gif formats and Paint,NET that I taught myself on and still use quite a bit crashes if I open either png or gif and won't save them either. This is the laptop that has ithe Intel Pentium graphic processor on it that best supports PS. another question, do we uninstall CS6 once CC is up and running.

I kept getting a fatal error when I tried to open the layers manager and I found a discussion board saying I had to do a system restore to fix the problem. Â Well I did a system restore and now autocad won't even load. Â I click on the icon and the hour glass goes but then it disappers and nothing happens. Â I have windows 7 if that makes a difference. Â I have been using 2007 lt for a few months now and everything worked fine.

I have a new computer and want to move the databse catalog over. I backed up in PSE 9 to an external hard drive. I connected to HD to the new computer and tried a resotre catalog. I chose "New Location" since I was going from XP to Windows 7 and was unsure if there would be a conflict with file locations. I also chose "Restore Original Floder Strucure". Very quickly I recieve an error message "Could not restor file .xml". I have run Restore Catalog several times and each time a DIFFERENT FILE receives the error message. I then disabled Norton Anti Virus Auto-Protect. I then disabled several programs running in the background. Same problem. I then copied the Backup Catalog to the new computer and tried to Restore it from there. Same Problem. I have now run a Repair Catalog on the original file. PSE states there is no error. I want to purchas PSE 11, but wanted to install/restore the database with the same version 9 first.

I have a custom world map for my fantasy series created in Photoshop CS5 (in 2D) that I want to turn into a globe. The image size is 14,400 x 7200 pixels. When I convert the image to a 3D shape, (New Shape From Layer -> Sphere) the resulting 3D image loses so much resolution, that when I view it at actual pixels, I can barely even read any of the text. Everything is extremely blurry. Is there a way to fix this or is it simply a process of converting the image from a 2D object to a 3D object?

My Photoshop CS6 always crashes when I lose my Internet connection...why? This is really aggravating, particularly when I am traveling with my laptop and try to use Photoshop. As long as I have an Internet connection it is fine, but as soon as the Internet is no longer available the program stops working.

I save my image into jpg/gif or whatever, it tends to lose a bit of detail or rather "smoothness." The image looks very nice and smooth in PS, but whenever I save it to use on the web, It looses a bit of its smoothness. Is there some setting or technique to fix.

I am still running PS CS on Windows 7 - it does all that I need. I just cloned my system disk to a SSD and had to make some changes to the virtual memory settings as a result. PS CS now says that the machine configuration has changed and it needs to be re-activated (yawn).Â
However when I try to activate online it says 'the activation system is not available at this time.' Is this because it's not possible to activate PS CS any longer, or is it genuinely just broken today? I have retired over a period of a couple of hours.

how to disable a registered copy of Master Suite? I currently have it installed on both my laptop and my desktop. One day my desktop's hard drive corrupted itself and would not allow my pc to boot no matter what I tried. So I ended up doing a low level format to my drive and reinstalling the operating system along with master suite. I was not able to deactivate my desktop's CS4 install because the computer was not able to boot into windows. Formating did not disable my copy of master suite, so when I restalled master suite it claims that I have it running on three computers yet, I have it only running on two computers. I installed it on to same pc, with the same operating system. My big question is, how do I disable the defunct copy of CS4 that is not working so I can use my fresh install of CS4 and my current install of CS4 on my laptop? Please help. PC specs: Intel Q9450 @ 3.6GHz (8 x 450FSB) / Abit IX38 Quad GT / 8Gb G.Skill @ 5-5-5-15 1000MHz / 2X 8600GT's (Core 700Mhz - Mem 760Mhz) / 2X Seagate 500GB (RAID 0) + 2X Seagate 1.5TB / Creative Labs X-Fi / PCP&C Silencer 750W / Lian Li V2000B Plus II / Vista Ultimate X64 SP1

I'm trying to install Photoshop CS2 for a client, but when I launch the application I get the error: "An error has been detected and activation cannot continue. Please restart your computer and reinstall the application"
I've already done the obvious thing to reboot and re-install the application with the same error. I tried deleting temporary files to no avail. Is there any other solution I should try before I re-image the machine?

Does the CS2 version of Photoshop actually do anything when you click the 'activate' option in the Help menu? Mine does not. I attempted to activate it via the phone system as well, and it asks for an activation number that should have been provided during installation, but does not appear anywhere on the registration page or anywhere else in the software. I've tried to contact Adobe, but from what I've seen on the Support boards, I may never hear from them. Allegedly (according to the support site) I should get an initial response via email within 4 hours of submitting the ticket (never got that) and some sort of informed reply within 3 days. So far, not a thing. Trying to contact them by phone results in literally hours listening to bad muzak and an automated system, but no human contact. Does anyone have any info on this? I realize it's an older version, just trying to determine if this is normal behavior for that version, or if perhaps the vendor needs to be visited by the Men in Blue.

I've got CS3 installed on a computer and a few days ago I installed Fedora and accidently erased the copy of Windows. Now I want to install CS3 on another machine but I can't activate it. It tells me that first I have to deactivate CS3 from the other machine.My problem is that I can't boot on windows anymore in order to do that. The windows partition was deleted.

I'm starting to work with big format photos much more these days. I'm designing albums which will contain a few pics per spread. When designing the pages sometimes i need to CTRL+T (shrink or enlarge) the images. So the question is, do these images lose (print) quality with all the CTRL + T?
BTW i never decrease the resolution, image size.

I have a scan of a pencil sketch as my background image. What I want to do is convert to colour image then, eventually, lose the pencil lines. For starters I would like to know how to flood fill an area with colour then get rid of the area's boundary line. I guess a valid solution might be along one of the following lines:
1. Flood fill, depositing the colour in one layer but using a boundary line in a different one.
2. Copy the sketch to another layer, fill the areas then somehow delete the lines.
3. Flood fill in one layer then copy the block of colour only, not the surrounding line, and paste into another layer. Any suggestions? As of a week ago I'd never used Photoshop so don't assume I know anything.

I was wondering if it is standard behaviour for my PS CS6 subscription to require me to log in to Activate the license EVERY time I use it? I thought that one it was activated, PS only checks the Activation every 30 days. Once I log in the activation works fine, however if for any reason my internet connection was not available, it would seem that I would not be able to use my copy of PS.
Â
I realize that that would happen even if the check was every 30 days, but that would only be a possible issue once a month, not every day!

So I just purchased a new computer, and with the work I do, sometimes it's easier to have two iterations of Photoshop running on two different computers. In other cases, someone in my family is using my computer, for something other than Photoshop, so I just want to sit at the other computer.
So I installed CS2 Suite on the new computer, which went fine, then activated it, which it said went fine, then when I went to use the software it says I didn't have a properly registered software, or something to that effect.
So I looked over the license agreement and it basically says you can have a copy on another machine, but you can only use one at a time...which after reading further, leads me to believe I have to de-activate the software on one computer before I can activate it on the other.... so in effect, I don't believe I can run on two machines at the same time...

Recently I became aware that PhotoShop CS3 has a limit of activation / deactivation. I have always supported companies in fighting unauthorized use of software and in fact lost my job and was out of work for a year after refusing to pirate software for clients. This stand has cost me greatly in personal finance due to being out of work and it angers me to know of companies using software without a license. Even when I reported the issues it seems no action gets taken which I guess is due to the small sizes. Thankfully I now have a new job at a place that follows my belief of requiring licensed usage of software.
Being a network engineer I am always tinkering with my home computer and testing out new software. This means that I run betas, release candidates and even demos as a part of my profession. Consequently this has me needing to wipe out the hard drive from time to time. I always thought of the Adobe activation method as the best as it allowed one to deactivate the product prior to having a reload as the best way to go as it allowed the person to not have the hassles with reactivation. Also to keep within the license I have PhotoShop install on my office computer so that I may do work with web images from time to time. To ensure that nobody at the office uses my PhotoShop I have been deactivation it and removing the key.

It came in the retail box and the CD still had the seal on it. It looked very legit (not that it always means anything, I guess), but when I try to install it I get the message that an activation error was encountered.
Is this error a sign that I may have gotten bogus software? Is there a way I can verify if I have a legit copy or not?

I am gong overseas and prefer not to transfer CS3 activation to my laptop. It appears Bridge does function without activation. I do not plan to work on any images, just want to view them.
