Adobe Creative Suite Premium All Re-install Except PhotoShop

I have been using Creative Suite Premium for over 4 years.  It was working fine until several days ago when Photoshop locked up.  After closing it, I have was not able to get Photoshop to run.  I have tried to uninstall and re-install the entire suite several times.  All of the programs in CS installed fine and I can open them and work in them, EXCEPT PhotoShop.  PhotoShop is the main program I use.  When I tried to install just PhotoShop, I got an error message that the serial number is invalid.  I re-checked and re-entered the serial number several times, but always got the same error message.  I don't understand whay happened in the first place and why the problem is only with PhotoShop. 
I use PhotoShop on a daily basis with my job, so I need it to be up and running.  I am also on a limited income and budget and cannot afford to buy their expensive upgrades, nor should I have to since the program has been working fine all this time. 
I tried the Tech suppport chat and after a lengthy wait and discussion, was told that Tech Support does support CS.  I know Adobe is trying to force me to spend hudnreds of dollars to upgrade, but if I am forced to buy new software, it won't be from Adobe.
Does anyone out there know of a solution to fix this?  Thanks.

Before uninstall/reinstalling any software always try to fix the preference file first. Reason is, if the file is corrupted, reinstalling the app will not fix it, as it assumes that you want to keep your prefered settings, hence preference file.
Most apps will recreate the file if it can not find it, but to be safe, moving the file to another location, will allow you to put it back if it does not recreate the file.

  • Adobe Creative Suite Premium 1.0

    We have seem to misplaced one of our CDs. Can anyone tell me how many CDs came with the original Adobe Creative Suite Premium? I have 2 install CDs, one extra/resource CD and one training CD. I want to make sure that I have not lost one of the install CDs.
    I also would like to find a list of all of the fonts that come with Adobe Creative Suite Premium. We have installed so many fonts I cannot tell what originally came with the CD and what I need to get permission to use in my work. Thank You.

    Looking at my old copy...
    2 x Install CD's
    2 x Resources and extras CD's
    1 x Video training CD
    1 x PageMaker Plug-In Pack CD for InDesign
    Making a total of 6 CD's.
    If you have 2 Install CD's, you should be fine. Sounds, like you may have lost one of the resources and extras or the Pagemaker Plug-In Pack CD's though...

  • Trying to match Adobe Creative Suite Serial Numbers with Installed Software's

    I'm trying to log all of my Adobe Creative Suite Software's in an Excel Sheet so i can know which computer the software's are installed on. I own and registered 8 versions of Creative Suite for our office, but i'm trying to now find out which computer each one is installed on for our database logs. When i try to compare our software's serial numbers (Ex. Photoshop, Illustrator) to our Creative Suite serial number nothing matches. How can i find the correct serial numbers to know which computer has which Creative Suite installed without the CD-Roms?

    You can't. You will have to deactivate and reactivate by inputting the serial numbers from scratch.

  • Adobe Creative Suites Premium:  error when starting says that there is missing or invalid info

    I have tried several suggestions from others online and still cannot get Adobe Creative Suites to work.  It worked on my old computer but not my new one which has Windows 7.  I have a wedding to finish editing so please help!!

  • Hallo! Habe Adobe Creative Suite CS6 heruntergeladen und installiert. Photoshop, Illustrator und Indesign funktionieren, Acrobat Professional nicht. Fehler: DW050. Was ist schief gegangen?

    Hallo! Die Frage steht eigentlich schon in der Überschrift: Ich habe von cobra-shop eine der letzten Adobe Creative Suite Design Standard CS6 Pakete erworben. Daraufhin bekam ich einen Download-Link + Seriennummer mitgeteilt. Ich habe den Download Manager runtergeladen, das Paket runtergeladen und installiert. Die Programme Photoshop, Indesign und Illustrator laufen, der Acrobat Professional leider nicht. Hier die zugehörige Fehlermeldung: DW050. Eine erste Auskunft der cobra-Mitarbeiter lautet, dass wenn die anderen drei Programme laufen, der Download als solcher wahrscheinlich geklappt hat und die Probleme eher beim Installieren aufgetreten sind. Dennoch: Der Download-Link läuft bald ab und vorher möchte ich sicher gehen, dass es nicht doch am Download liegen kann. Deshalb freue ich mich über baldige Rückmeldung. Viele Grüße!

    Ja wie gesagt es hat davor auch ohne Probleme Funktioniert nur war ich gezwungen das System neu zu Installieren und ab dann konnte ich die da oben genannten Updates nicht mehr Installieren. Ein Mac ist zwar eine schöne Sache kommt aber für mich nie in Frage da ich mein PC als Arbeitsrechner und Gamer Rechner nutze und das meiste läuft halt nicht auf einen Mac und man müsste manche Programme neu Kaufen, das sehe ich überhaupt nicht ein, und meine Anwendungen werden aus Prinzipien nicht für Apple Produkte entwickelt da verdient man kaum etwas... aber das muss jeder für sich entscheiden. An eine neue Version habe ich eventuell nächstes Jahr gedacht aber auch nur die CS6 ob man das brauch ist die Frage da CS 5 genau macht was es soll. Das Modell mit der Adobe Cloud hat zwar denn Vorteil das die Programme Aktuell sind aber man muss Monatlich dafür Zahlen und CS5/CS6 oder älter brauch man nur einmal Kaufen. Darüber hinaus finde ich eh das Adobe so eine richtige S*** ist wenn es um Support ältere Programme geht so zeigt Adobe meiner Meinung nach das Ihre Produkte nichts wert sind zumindest macht es den Anschein. Aber wie gesagt, bin ich hier um Hilfe zu bekommen um das Problem zu lösen ohne ein neue Version zu kaufen, das ist ja bekanntlich die einfachste Lösung, aber wenn Informatiker auch so denken würden dann würde es sehr schlecht aussehen... und als Anmerkung am Rande, es wäre ja nett wenn man mir denn Link dieser Updates zukommen lassen könnte um die Updates Manuell zu Installieren.
    "Aber wie sollen wir denn Programme testen auf Hardware und OS, die es erst in ein paar Jahren geben wird."
    Dies kann man in voraus natürlich nicht aber in nachhinein geht das und Software Entwickler denn etwas an Ihre Produkte liegt, machen das nachhinein auch und passen gegebenenfalls Ihr Produkt an.
    PS: CS 2 läuft ebenfalls auf einem Windows 8.1 rechner ;-)

    Yes, your fonts are locked. This is a known issue with different older versions of Adobe products if they are mixed. You need to take ownership and set their permissions to full access. There is some article on it in the knowledge base, but you might just as well do a web search on a more generic level about such procedures. An abbreviated summary of how to is contained in this article on my page (Security section).

  • Adobe Creative Suite Premum 5.5 Install fails - TWICE

    I have a new computer and virtually nothing installed on it except the MS Updates. I tried the instructions on loading the Adobe CS Premium 5.5 and followed them to the tee -twice, without deleting the first install, as the instructions did not state to delete any prior install attempts..
    I got the following two install failures. I have MS Windows 7 64 bit Professional installed. The Adobe part number is PN 65127685.
    Does anyone know what the problem is ? I could apply the update patch from within the program(s) and I can not see anything failing yet.
    I was told that this product comes with the ability to install on 2 computers. Will my attempt to install on a second computer now fail ? Will I have to get Adobe to reset the install counter ?

  • Problem installing old adobe creative suite

    I'm trying to install an adobe creative suite premium for a 1.3 mac on a recently acquired Mac OS.  It is not letting me because the power PC applications are no longer supported.  Does anyone understand that?

    Apple no longer includes support for Rosetta which is required to run applications created for the older Power PC processor iMac's. Apple began the transition to Intel processors back in 2005, and has been using Rosetta as a way for PowerPC based software users to transition to Intel based systems. With the release of Lion, Apple no longer supports Rosetta.
    The following document provides additional information:
    (Excerpt from http://blogs.adobe.com/koreacsc/files/2011/07/AdobeCS_LionFAQ_Final.pdf )
    Q. What does the removal of Rosetta and PowerPC® (PPC) support by Apple mean to Creative Suite customers?
    A. With Mac OS X Lion, Apple no longer includes support for Rosetta, which is required to run PPC code on Macs with Intel® processors. Creative Suite 2 software was created to run on PowerPC hardware on Macs and will not be able to run on Lion. Additionally, older plug-ins as well as drivers for printers, scanners, and other hardware peripherals that require PPC support will no longer work with even the most current Creative Suite products without Rosetta.

  • Need help with upgrade from Adobe Creative Suite to PS CS4

    My old laptop with Photoshop on it crashed and I ended up purchasing a new laptop.
    I'm trying to reload my PS CS4.  I am using an upgrade from an educational Adobe Creative Suite Premium to the CS4 and when I loaded it on my old laptop I had to get installation help through customer service, but now customer service will not help me since it is CS4.
    When installing the upgrade, it tell me to select the product I already own.  I own the educational full creative suite, but am only upgrading the Photoshop.  I chose Photoshop CS and tried entering the serial number for the suite.  It tells me that the serial number doesn't match the product chosen.  Of course the only products I'm allowed to choose from is Photoshop CS, CS2, or CS3 and not Creative Suite Premium.
    The other serial numbers on this CS is Golive CO and Pagemaker Plug-in.
    I was told there are Adobe customer service reps here on the forum, please tell me what it was I need to do to get my Photoshop installed.
    Thanks

    i wasn't aware that you could get a ps4 at an upgrade price using an older creative suite produect.  i searched online and found this thread (http://forums.adobe.com/thread/476009) which makes it appear that was not a valid upgrade path.
    but, if you're confident that was a valid upgrade path, i'm pretty sure something will need to be done on adobe's end and no amount of manipulation, on your end only, will work.
    your best bet would be to get help in this forum from an adobe staff member like jeff wright who is very knowledgeable and goes out of his way to help adobe customers.  to that end, if i were you, i would start a new thread mentioning his name in your title and in your initial post explaining:
    you have the educational Adobe Creative Suite Premium and purchased a photoshop cs4 upgrade years ago that required adobe support help to install years ago. 
    that worked well until a recent computer problem forced you buy a new laptop and you are now trying to reinstall that ps cs4 and again need support help but have been refused help because cs4 is not current.

  • I bought adobe creative suite prem actual cds, with serial yet when i put its serial in to redeem it and download it onto my new mac it says on your site it is invalid, the serial

    i bought adobe creative suite premium actual cds, with serial yet when i put its serial in to redeem it and download it onto my new mac through your adobe site it says on your site it says my serial is invalid, when my serial is not, it is clear you adobe advertise you can use your old software on new apple computers but clearly this is not the case; forcing me and all to shell out vast amours of money just to use your products i have already bought????.......i will never buy your product again!!!!

    Your post makes no sense to anyone. you have not provided proper technical information or version information. rather than going off on a tangent, you may want to read this:

    I have registered serial numbers for all 3 software. I could not reinstall with Adobe Creative Suite Premium disc so I downloaded the trial version of Adobe Creative Suite 5.5 Premium  and use the 5.5 serial number but the software said I need more to activate. I am not sure what to do next

    I will try to provide that information, but if I remember correctly Adobe Creative Suite 4 Design Premium is not listed  nor is my full version  Adobe Creative Suite Premium.
    By the way my phone number is <personal info removed> I do not have Skype at my office.

  • How to identify version of Adobe creative Suite

    I am working on packaging for Adobe Creative Suite. After installing Adobe Creative Suite Premium\Installer 1\Adobe Creative Suite\Setup.exe, I am not able to identify the version (like CS1 or CS2 or CS3  so on.........)of this product even in ARP entry its showing "Adobe creative Suite" only . I am also not getting how to do silent installation of this product because its not extracting any Install.xml OR deploy.xml,Uninstall.xml OR remove.xml,setup.xml,Application.xml.override files. Also no folder is there like Payloads and deployment.
    So my question is how to identify version and how to do silent installation?

    You don't.  Registration is a one time thing that you do the first time you install an application.  Once registered it does not need to be done again.
    You should see if yoiu can have the activations reset before you try installing on a new machine so that you still have the two activations that are available to you.  If not, you should still have an activation available for use with the new installation.
    To reset activations contact Adobe Support and ask them to reset your activations....  For the link below click the Still Need Help? option in the blue area at the bottom and choose the chat option...

    To get it working on the new machine you just install and activate using the serial number you should already have.

  • Old Creative Suite Premium product

    I have recently moved to a new home. I am running the same computer with the same software, but suddently Photoshop won't run unless I "activate" my product. When I try to activate over the phone, it tells me my activation code doesn't have the right number of numbers. I suppose i it is because it is an older product. Has anyone else run into this problem?  I don't understand why it de-activated itself in the first place.  Chat was no help at all and told me to try the forums.

    Adobe Creative Suite Premium, running on Windows XP Professional 5.1. The disks say 3/04  1.1.1  on them. I bought the full package and my receipt is from 7/27/2004. InDesign (version 3) still works, Adobe Acrobat Professional still works (version 6.0), GoLive still works (version 7).  Photoshop (version 8.0) seems to be the only problem. I've pasted below the message I get when I try to use Photoshop.
    Does that help?

  • Macbook and original Adobe Creative Suite (CS1)

    Will the original Adobe Creative Suite and all plugins, intended for powerpc, run okay on an intel mac? I realize that it would have to run with the rosetta emulation, and thus slower if at all, but will this performance be equal to that of an iBook g4 1.33ghz 12inch? Many thanks in advance if anyone has any experience on trying to do this. CS1 still does great for what I need it to do, and I don't care to go spend a huge amount of money on CS3.

    No problem. If it is just Photoshop you are worried about, there are many alternatives, and many of them very cheap or otherwise affordable.
    Photoshop Elements is arguably the most popular prosumer photo editing software. You might also check out Pixelmator, as it's cheaper and does many of the same things as PS Elements (and more, in some cases).
    There is also GIMP, which I think is completely free.
    Please be aware that Elements and Pixelmator do not support CMYK editing, so if you are doing print work it's best to stick to the 'real' Photoshop. I cannot speak for GIMP, as I have never used it.
    Of course, if you need InDesign or the other CS apps, then all this is moot.
    There is definitely a version of Photoshop CS4 out there in beta form. Screenshots have made their way to the Internet, so I don't think you will have to wait TOO much longer, whatever you decide .
