Can't install Photoshop CS4 on Macbook Pro 10.8.3

When I try to install from my original disc, it freezes and stops the install about halfway through. Any fixes?

Hi RodWS,
Photoshop CS4 has not been tested and you might face compatibility issues with MAC OS 10.8.3
Please consider upgrading to the latest CS6 version. You can even opt for a monthly subscription for it from Creative Cloud at a very nominal fee.

I need help installing Photoshop on my Macbook Pro.

I am trying to install Photoshop on my Macbook pro running OSX 10.6.8 for my student photographer daughter. Every time I try to install either the 30 day trial or buy the monthly plan it tells me that the computer can't establish a secure connection and suggests that the url has changed. I checked it on my Mac at work, today but it looks fine. She needs Photoshop, not necessarily the fastest newest version for college, but needs to use it from this older Macpro. Any thoughts?

Can't install Snow Leopard on Macbook Pro MC700 - 3 beeps after installer starts.

can't install Snow Leopard on Macbook Pro MC700 - 3 beeps after installer starts (10.6.3 retail). Lion installer starts normally. What's a problem?

I have the same trouble, I try installing rEFI but when I try start my Pro from DVD doesn't recognize.
Can I start from USB Memory? with files from SL DVD? or have some thing else?
I have original DVD of SL 10.6.3, if I buy the latest stable version, can I install? or the EFI firmware with Lion change again?
I try to use Lion, more than one week but I can't, and some app that I use for my profession, doesn't work, I really need downgrade to SL.
Really Thanks for any help.

Can't install Photoshop CS4 Ext

I have a computer with Win XP SP3 with CS4 Design Standard already installed.
I installed Photoshop CS4 Extended, but when I start Photoshop Ext, Photoshop (not Ext) starts.
I deinstalled Photoshop Ext and Photoshop in CS4 Design Standard, then installed Photoshop CS4 Ext again.
But when I start it, Photoshop (not Ext) starts.
So I deinstalled Photoshop Ext, deinstalled complete CS4 Design Standard. I used Clean Script CS4, deleted preferences files, then installed Photoshop CS4 Ext again. But still the Photoshop starts (not Ext).
Does anybody have any idea?

There is no upgrade path from 7 to CS4 if that is what your asking. You will have to buy the whole PS CS4 Ext product.
Is it worth it? Depends on what you do with the software. PS CS4 Ext comes in 64 bit and can handle all the RAM you can throw at it. But your system must be able to support the CS4 requirements and that in itself could be costly upgrade wise. Photoshop elements is pretty good for the average user. However if you want it all CS4 would be the way to go and is geared for the professional user. I don't consider myself a pro but I use it for my hobby and such.
If you can hold off CS5 is coming down the pipeline. If you buy CS4 extended now at the full blown price and CS5 comes out and you want CS5 you have to eat the price of CS4 plus the CS5 upgrade. Just food for though (No pun inteneded. Ok, just a little one). PS CS4 is a lot of bucks for just casual photo adjustment usage.

Can't install photoshop CS4

I am using windows XP SP3 and tried to install photoshop CS4 many times. But every time, after a certain extent of the completion of the setup, my system automatically restarts. I checked the setup log file and found that the last line of the log file is same each time I try to install it. That means some particular operation is creating some problem. The last few lines of the setup are as follows:

Can't install Photoshop CS4 in Lion

Hi, I have a new iMac Core i7 that came with Lion installed. We have Creative Suite 4 Design Premium as an upgrade from the original Creative Suite Premium which was itself an upgrade from Photoshop 7. I only want to install Photoshop from CS4. The installer asks for the CS4 serial number which I enter, then it says this is an upgrade so enter the original serial number from CS1 which I then enter. When the install screen comes up all the apps show up except Photoshop. I thought maybe all the information wasn't fitting in the window but there are no scroll bars and the window isn't resizable. We installed this with no problem on the old MacBook Pro but we installed the whole suite. Any idea why Photoshop won't show up? I looked through other forums and Photoshop CS4 seems to work in Lion and in 64 bit so I'm guessing that's not the issue.
Thanks for any help.

Doh!! Bonehead!! It was a scrolling issue. When I mentioned scrolling in my first post I got to wondering how hard I actually tried to scroll the installation window down. So I tried to install one last time and sure enough there were several more pages of info below the bottom of the window. All is good now. I guess I'm still getting used to all this gesturing stuff in Lion.

Can't install Snow Leopard on MacBook Pro - DVD won't mount

I am unable to install Snow Leopard on my MacBook Pro as the DVD won't mount. This is an early 2008 vintage MacBook Pro, intel core duo...
I'm using a OS X Snow Leopard install DVD (family licensed). This DVD has been used to install 3 other Macs in my house without a problem (about a year ago), but cannot be used to upgrade my MBP. Actually, this disk mounted on the MBP exactly once - inserted with system up, the disk mounted. Upon running the installed (a year ago), the computer restarted but hung in boot. After getting the disk ejected and the computer restarted, the disk would never mount again. I've defered upgrade for a year but at this point need to upgrade my MBP at least to Snow Leopard and possibly Lion.
The problem doesn't seem to be with the DVD, since it continues to mount fine in other computers, and in fact a borrowed Snow Leopard DVD also will not mount on the MBP.
BUT ... the problem also does not seem to be with the optical drive in my computer, as it can read & mount the install/restore disks that came with the computer as well as other CDs and DVD ROMs. Only the Snow Leopard install DVDs fail to mount.
I've also tried mounting the 10.6 install DVD on my Mac Pro desktop, making it available over the network (ethernet) with DVD/CD sharing. I can mount the remote disk from my MBP that way, but when I launch the installer, the application launches (its own menus are displayed, I can quit from menu, for example) but does nothing -- no windows open, nothing.
I've also tried "Remote Install" (again with the DVD made available with the Remote Install MacOS X application on my desktop), but when I boot the MBP with option held down, the remote disk is not available as a startup disk.
Zapping the PRAM did not help.
Am off to the store to get an optical drive cleaning kit and a blank DVD big enough to burn a new disk image, but would appreciate any further ideas at this point....

Solution that worked: Copy the Install DVD to a USB flash drive and boot from that.

How can i install windows 7 on macbook pro lion from usb?

hello am sorry to disturb you
i would like to know the above question since i have looked almost everywhere and i have received no answer
i have a macbook pro i5 with lion
i have been trying for month to install windows 7 as a secondary boot to my mac
but i haven't been able to
things that i have done
-i had downloaded win7 iso
-using another computer i installed win7 on the usb { win to flash }
-i have used bootcamp assistant but apparently i need a dvd of win7 which i currently don't have
-i have installed Reffit but i always get a flashing screen when try to load windows
please i hope you can reply me back if possible
my thoughts are
is that apple disabled the efi on lion to not be able to boot from usb flash drive
my reasoning to this is that is used to work on leopard but not lion
again am trying to boot from usb not burn a disc
please help att alcidio

Rule #1 that TP missed: ISO have to be burned at SLOWEST 2X burn speed to work.
There is/was a long thread but booting Windows from USB-DVD or flash is hit or miss, it may work. USB-DVDs often do not but it is possible to edit the plist to add the Mac ID string to it.
Boot Camp Assistant -
create a partition (done)
download Windows Support Software (drivers to install after Windows is running) (done)
Start the install and boot process - not really needed or essential
And you can use Paragon, you can use Windows 7 or later DVD and do entire install (but on a dedicated 100% Windows hard drive).
Flash drive: has to be MBR and FAT or NTFS (I think, sounds right) same for putting Apple drivers on flash card for which there is an Apple Tech Article.

Installing photoshop cs2 onto macbook pro

I had the old version of photoshop cs2. I want to put it on my new macbook pro. I was given the link http://www.adobe.com/downloads/cs2_downloads/index.html". I have downloaded it but when I try to install the message says 'Installation failed. The installer encountered an error that caused the installation to fail. Contact the software manufacturer for assistance'.

Looks like you're looking at buying a full version of CS6 or subscribing to the cloud. :-/

Can I install Snow Leopard on MacBook Pro 2013

Can I install Snow Leopard on my new MacBook Pro 2013. I'm so tired of the UGLY grey icons. I keep thinking that the mail or iPhoto window is not the active one because everything is grey. I use Snow Leopard on my 27inch iMac and love it. Nice RED delete button for mail, etc. Thanks

Firmware restrictions prevent directly loading any OSX earlier than what came with the system.
The *only* way around is to load SnowLeopard *Server* (not Client) into a virtual machine (Parallels, VMWare Fusion, VirtualBox). But that costs $20+shipping/tax for the disk and is a learning curve into SL Server. And you *still* need your host OSX to run it, and the VM will not most efficiently use the hardware resources.

Can't install Snow-Leopard on Macbook pro (Midd 2010)

Hi there,
i have i big problem, i can't install a retail-version from snow-leopard (Version 10.6) on my Macbook pro.
Follow Situation: yesterday i get the Developer-Preview from Lion and install it onto my productiv-system. Not a good idea, i know, but i have a backup and will back to Snow Leopard. So, i try to start the Retail-Version DVD and she start, but only to the gray Apple-Symbol. Then they stop and don't go away.
I try to reset the PRAM, the SMC, no result. I try to start the installation from a USB-Image, same result. I try to start the installation from another harddisk/partition, the same result.
When i press cmd-v at the start i can read, that they stop after the load from the extensions.kext.
I have a Problem, a big Problem, i know. But what can i do?

You will need to use the system disk that shipped with your unit, the build is most likely different then the one on the retail version
Then after it is installed- you can use the migration assistant to import your data from your backup.
