Recently my CS5 illustrator and Photoshop is not responding frequently. How to rectify?

Recently my CS5 illustrator and Photoshop are not responding frequently. keep crashing. Any solution?
Thanks,
Mike

Hi Mylenium,
My imac processor 2.66GHZ intel core i5
Memory 8G 1067MHz DDR3
Mac OS X 10.7.5 (Lion)
When I try to launch CS5 illustrator, sometime it is not responding. It also happen after I launched illustrator and I was just doing some basic design, change type and zoom in and out.
If I opened both CS5 illustrator and photoshop, while I was working on illustrator and when it start not responding, photoshop also become not responding and vice versa.
I hope this information is adequate for you and troubleshoot for me what's wrong with my mac.
Thanks
Mike

    Mac,
    Nothing shows up here?

    With CS5 you must have registered, hopefully under your present Adobe ID.
    I am afraid the chat and phone support are off until the beginning of January.

  • CC 2014.2 Illustrator and Photoshop will not work properly on 10.7.5

    I have recently download Illustrator and Photoshop CC 2014.2 on my MacBook Pro version 10.7.5.
    I notice some of the functions where not working properly. For example Bounding box in Illustrator will not appear for rectangle tool. Color strip on the color box will appear as sold color instead of strips of different colors for me to choose.
    I called the Adobe to find out why is this happening and they told me it was because I don't have the latest OS on my MAC. Do to company policy I can't upgrade my OS to the latest version. Adobe send me the link that is not working for two times and need the correct link ASAP.
    Can you guys please send me the right link for me to downgrade?
    Thank you

    Piruki have you tried utilizing the Previous version option within the Creative Cloud Desktop application?  You can find additional details under the install Previous version section of CC desktop lists applications as "Up to Date" when not installed - http://helpx.adobe.com/creative-cloud/kb/aam-lists-removed-apps-date.html.

  • My InDesign, Illustrator and Photoshop will not launch - error number 213:19

    Can someone please help me?
    After attempting Launch all three applications I was sent error 123:19 and asked to restart my computer however it has still come up.
    What does this mean and how do I fix it

    I think this is a permissions issue. Are you using an account with Adminsitrator or restricted permissions?
    Are the the applications fully patched? That's helps some users with this error. If you can launch any of the CS5.5 programs you should be ale to launch the Adobe Updater from the Help menu, otherwise try downloading the latest patches manually for each application from the Adobe.com website.
    Finally, see http://helpx.adobe.com/photoshop-elements/kb/licensing-problem.html This particular article is for Photoshop Elements, but it appears to be generic in application.
    If all else fails, uninstall, run the clean tool (CS Cleaner Tool for installation problems | CCM, CS6, CS5.5, CS5, CS4, CS3) and reinstall.

    No problem, glad to help! According to the link in dougofakkad's post CS6 is the earliest version compatible with Mavericks.
    "Adobe Photoshop CS5, CS4, and CS3 were also tested with Mac OS X Mavericks and there are currently no known major issues"
    from the link. i don't know what the legal deal is with buying/using secondhand older versions, someone else may be able to fill you in.

  • InDesign CS5 is not opening after deactivation/activation. How can I fix this? Illustrator and Photoshop open and are working fine. Please help!

    First of all, thank you for replying so promptly to my posts this morning!
    I can't remember how I got the software on his computer, but I'm pretty sure it wasn't through migration assistant.
    I was looking into doing an uninstall of InDesign and a fresh install. However, I initially downloaded the CS5 suite digitally and I can't find out how I am able to perform a fresh install of InDesign. Do you know where I find this info or gain access to download just InDesign again? I can't seem to find anything in my Adobe account that shows where I might do another download.

  • I have Windows 7, and I am being told that it does not support the newest Ai Illustrator, Are there any other alternate routes I can take to get adobe illustrator and photoshop on my computer? Perhaps an earlier version? Thanks! ~

    houseofrest,
    According to this page, you can use it for CC:
    Adobe Illustrator CC for Mac, Windows, PC - Tech specs
    Or you can buy CS6:

  • Illustrator and Photoshop CS6 both will not allow me to print from them

    Illustrator and Photoshop CS6 both will not allow me to print from them. InDesign will, but illustrator keeps popping up with "can't print the illustration." i have read other forums and i understand outlining typefaces, and spot colors but, it still will not allow me to print. Even if i open a completely new file and just try to print a black square it will not allow it. the problem might have started with an emailed EPS file? but im not 100 percent sure. i have disconnected and re connected the printer but the problem just seems as if all Illustrator, and Photoshop files will not print from the program and the connection with the printer is non existent (even though it says it is). please help!

    Reset your illustrator prefs
    Hold fingers over Shift Alt CTLR (PC) or Shift Opt Command (Mac)
    Boot Illustrator
    Immediately after booting depress the 3 keys as fast as you can.

  • Indesign, Illustrator and Photoshop Freezing. Arrgggggghhhh!

    Hi All,
    I've recently installed Fusion 3 and now I'm having a diabolical problem with my Creative Suite. Indesign, Illustrator and Photoshop (though less often the latter) freeze - not just after a sleep etc, but up to every 5 or 10 minutes. I am going absolutely CRAZY and am becoming extremely frustrated. I googled the issue and have read in many forums that Extensis and the latest Fusion 3 update is the source of the problem. At this stage I am forcing quit and reopening documents consistently. The interruption to my work, schedule and deadlines is creating intense stress. I installed Fusion 3 last week but it's only since yesterday that the freezing has become apparent and immediately unbearable.
    Does anyone have any advice? I can't go on like this. If I dump Fusion 3 and unistall it, will my problems go away? Sure, I won't be able to manage my fonts very well, but considering the alternative I couldn't care less. Can anyone recommend an alternative font management program that doesn't send Adobe programs into a full meltdown?
    Here are my stats;
    iMac running Version 10.6.8
    Processor 2.8 GHz Intel Core i5
    Memory 4GB 1333 MHz DDR3
    Adobe Creative Suite 5
    Please please - any advice greatly appreciated.
    Thanks,
    PPP

    Hi Manish,
    Thanks for your response. In the preferences window I have this option;
    "Global Auto-Activation Options"
    and then to check or uncheck...
    Auto-acticate fonts for the following applications - the only application listed is Textedit
    So I've unchecked it where I can.
    I am running CS 5 and can't find the specific plugins you have noted, but have found the following pertaining to Extensis;
    Illustrator/Plug-Ins/Extensions/ExtensisFontManagementAICS5.aip
    Indesign/Plug-ins/Font Activation/ExtensisFontManagementIDCS5.InDesignPlugin
    Photoshop/Plug-Ins/Automate/ExtensisFontManagementPSCS5.plugin
    Are these the ones I should delete?
    Many thanks,
    PPP

  • Recommended hardware configuration when using Adobe Illustrator and Photoshop

    Hello!
    I am an Illustrator who uses Adobe Illustrator and Photoshop most of the time. Today I am using Adobe CS5.5 suite and is thinking of getting the Adobe CC. As my computer today is abit old and "tired", I am unsure about what to focus on when updating my hardware?
    I am using today a HP workstation with following hardware:
    Software:
    Windows 7
    Adobe Creative Suite CS5.5
    Hardware:
    Processor:              Intel i7-2600 3,4GHz
    Internal memory:     8,00 GB DDR3
    Disc drive:               500GB SATA disk 7200rpm
    Graphics card:        NVIDIA GeForce GT 1GB
    Since I work both with Technical Illustrations with loads of anchor points in Adobe Illustrator, I get sometimes error messages like "Out of memory" and such. I read about having two discs, one system disc and one work folder disc, that would solve that problem. But I am also working alot with large illustrations for comercial and advertising situations and I feel that it tend to get a bit slow, especially when I add gradients and blendmodes to an illustration.
    So If I could get som recomendations of what to focus on to boots the speed in my system, also taking into account that my budget is somewhat small, I would really appreciate it!
    Best regards
    Ulf

    I have similar setup to yours.
    From my point of view you need more RAM. I have 16GB. Than you will need to change in preferences to adjust memory used by PS and Illustrator. Maybe take a look at virtual memory in Windows and disable aero effects.
    Disk. It is better to have one disk for system (eg.SSD) and one for documents. But don't buy something like WD Green series that is intended for backup.
    Graphics. It is not a major player I think for your tasks, but OpenGl can speed up rendering in Photoshop and Illustrator.
    When exporting AI with layers to PSD it will always show "out of memory" unless you turn off anti aliasing.
    and the most important thing reinstall Windows after some time... It will work faster.

  • Need help about buying the month package (illustrator and photoshop) converting computers

    I currently pay for a package where I use
    illustrator and photoshop for £15/17 a month. Recently my Macbook is being repaired which is what it was brought/downloaded from but I still need to use the programs. I am currently using my dad's PC at the moment but not sure what to do because I have logged in to my account, but it doesn't recognise that I have already paid for it on this account. Any suggestions??

    download the cc desktop app to your dad's pc, Download Adobe Creative Cloud apps | Free Adobe CC trial
    (make sure you use the same adobe id used to pay for your subscription) and use the desktop app to install ps and ai
