Transfer pattern overlays from layer styles Photoshop CS2 to CS4

Hi all,
I was wondering is there a way to transfer my pattern overlays from my layer styles from Photoshop CS2 to the CS4?  Thanks in advance.

Save them from the flyout menu in the top right corner of the Actions palette in CS2, then load them into CS4.

  • I have tried downloading photoshop cs2 and cs4 on a new computer.  I have the disc available for cs2 and the serial number for cs4.  They are both registered in my name.  I need help doing a download.

    I have tried downloading photoshop cs2 and cs4 on a new computer.  I have the disc available for cs2 and the serial number for cs4.  They are both registered in my name.  I need help doing a download.  I was able to get part way through cs4, it showed up in my downloads but never got as far in the process as to ask for serial numbers.  I tried with cs2 and I got an error message that some bit of information was incorrect.  I currently have both downloaded on two other lap tops I own.  One is operational and one is dead.  I cannot access the dead one to remove the program. Thank you in advance for any assistance.

    For CS2 you will need to download a special new version

  • Photoshop CS2 Create Layer from Layer Style workaround?

    In newer versions of Photoshop I have created a layer from a layer style so I could edit the layer style directly .  Any way to do this in CS2? Workaround or equivalent?

    You can do the same thing in photoshop cs2
    Layer>Layer Style>Create Layers
    Or right click on the fx to the right of the layer thumbnail that has the layer style for the same options

  • Need help saving layer styles Photoshop CS6 Extended for Mac (Mountain Lion)

    I have been trying to learn Photoshop. I am using Photoshop CS6 Extended on a Macbook Pro (Mountain Lion). My Adobe software has been updated. I have been doing tutorials using a lot of layer styles. In one of these tutorials, it was suggested that if I would possibly want to use the style again that I should save it. At this point I had entered all my layer styles info and was still in the window with the list of layer styles on the left (bevel and emboss, drop shadow, etc., and the "New Style" button on the right. I clicked on the "New Style" button and when another window popped up asking me to name the style, I named it. When I looked at my styles in the styles panel, I saw the little button for the new style. I saved my graphic and closed it. Later I wanted to apply this style to text in another graphic. The style was used on text originally. When I clicked on it though the style didn't look the same. Upon investigation, a couple of setting under Bevel and Emboss had reverted to defaults. They were different numbers when I saved the style. I could go back in and change these two numbers and get the same results, but I don't understand why these numbers changed on their own -- why the style didn't completely "save." Is there something I have done wrong, or is this some kind of bug? Any help would be greatly appreciated! Thank you in advance!

    Thank you very much for your reply! Yes, both documents were at 72 resolution. This morning I tried to save yet another style (same resolution document). It worked when I used it the first time. Then I switched to the other style I had saved. That one took some of the bevel and emboss settings from this morning's style. The numbers which will not save are the angle and altitude under the shading section. Just now I made another document (text at 72 resolution) and both styles had changed these numbers to 120 and 30. Is this something I am doing wrong? I am trying to use text of a similar font and size. I updated my software last night in the hopes that that would help. This morning I reset preferences. Don't know what to do! Thanks for helping me!

  • Problem upgrading from Photoshop CS2 to CS4 Extended

    I purchased the retail box Photoshop CS4 Extended Upgrade (Windows) from a retail store ($349.99 + tax). I am upgrading from Photoshop CS2 and this is the version that the Adobe website says to purchase for this upgrade path. The problem is that CS4 doesn't see my installed, working, activated, and registered CS2 installation so it brings up the next screen offering to allow me to install it as a trial version OR list my qualifying product and serial number. The way that it offers to let me enter my qualifying product is via a drop down box with a single entry of CS3 Extended. No way of entering my CS2 there and it doesn't like my CS2 serial number entered with a CS3 product being shown there (says it isn't a valid CS3 serial number...of course it isn't). Does anyone know how to get this thing to install? Adobe tech support is gone until Monday and then I'll be at work, unable to try anything they might suggest.
    Why does Adobe make upgrades so painful? I remember CS2 was a PITA and took Adobe tech support a week to figure out how to get it to install.

    No, this shouldn't be extended to extended (I wouldn't expect to shell out $350 twice for extended). This is Adobe P/N 65015396 which their website says is for PhotoShop CS, CS2, CS3, and CS3 upgrades and retails for $350. The face of the box is identified as Adobe Photoshop CS4 Extended Windows and the side of the box only says that I must have an "eligible older version of Adobe or Macromedia software." It also says to check the website, which says this P/N is what to buy for my upgrade path. A mess? YES!!!

  • Creatiing curves layer in Photoshop CS2

    Anyone know the applescript command(s) for creating a curves layer in Photoshop? I can create a layer but not a curves layer with the following:
    tell application "Adobe Photoshop CS2"

    end tell
    I can't find any documentation regarding this.

  • Upgrading from Photoshop CS2 to CS4

    Due to having PowerPC machines we're unable to use Photoshop CS5 so we want to upgrade as far as we can, which is CS4. The Adobe store doesn't seem to sell CS4 any more, so we're looking at buying through a third-party vendor. Vendors sell both CS4 Full Versions and Upgrades; would we be able to use an Upgrade version with a CS2 serial number? Thanks!

    An upgrade should work for you, because you are less than three versions behind CS4, which is Adobe's usual limitation rule.
    Just be sure you get it from an authorized reseller - there is a lot of fake and damaging software out there...

  • How do you transfer line art from Illustrator to Photoshop?

    I created a set of icons in illustrator and would like to move them to photoshop as shape layers. The icons are created from the strokes of shapes, and when I paste them into photoshop, the shape fills in and I lose the stroke. I could add a stroke in photoshop, but it misses any internal strokes that I have drawn. I could plate them as smart objects, but I would prefer them to be shape layers. How can I get these icons into photoshop?

    Dear vbach: If by "Line art" you mean Line art in the original sense, i.e., black lines on a white background, I've been doing it for twenty-odd years, copying from AI to PS. It's gotten better lately with the shaped lines now available in AI. I don't have to outline anything. Select lines in Illustrator, copy, switch to PS, and paste into a new or existing file. See attached half-size jpeg. Is this what you mean?

  • Locate Pattern in Layer Style?

    I have a photoshop file that's using a tiled pattern within a Layer  Style.  When I open the Patterns Overlay dialogue, it's not listed  within the pattern icons,  yet Its obviously still referencing from  somewhere..  How can I locate this pattern?
    thanks
    Jeff

    The layer styles can embed patterns (textures) so users on another computer
    don't need to have the pattern (texture).
    You define the pattern from within the layer styles dialog, which works with both
    the pattern overlay and texture (under Bevel and Emboss) and then you'll always
    have that pattern (texture). You also can find the size of the patterns (textures) used by
    holding the mouse over the pattern and reading the size. (show tool tips needs to be
    enabled under Preferences>Interface).
    Added: This also works for gradients and contours and be sure to save the patterns, etc
                so you don't lose them when switching to another set of patterns, etc.

  • Photoshop CS5 x64 crashing while editing layer styles

    Hey there,
    I searched and seeked through the whole interweb, but hardly anyone seems to have ever had such a problem, so I am guessing this is the right place to ask and hopefully be helped . Short version is: Photoshop CS5 (x64) is constantly crashing when editing a layer style.
    I recently installed my CS5 Design Premium on a new laptop (Fujitsu Lifebook AH351) and am having severe problems with Photoshop CS5. On first run everything was fine, and it kept that way for a while. Now everytime I try to edit a layer style Photoshop crashes immediately. I do not need to alter anything, just open the layer style, press OK and Photoshop is gone. I can workaround by resetting preferences which works until next reboot, no matter if I change ANYTHING on the settings or not. Had tried this on the initial PS release and on the latest update (12.0.4). Once I reset settings again, I can work on layer styles again. Did anyone of you have a similar problem or a hint at what I might look?
    The Lifebook has a decent feature which I suspect to somehow be the culprit of this case: it has an onboard graphics unit and a separate GPU (nVidia GForce GT 525M) which can be added in on a program-to-program basis. Photoshop indeed recognizes it and lets me activate OpenGL features as well, so from that point it seems fine. The internal GPU cannot be disabled since you connect your monitors to it.
    Some data about my system:
    Fujitsu Lifebook AH531
    Intel® Core™ i5-2410M
    RAM: 8 GB DDR3 1333 MHz
    750 GB SATA HDD 5400 U/Min
    Windows 7 Home Premium x64 (up to date)
    NVIDIA® GeForce® GT 525M with 1GB VRAM
    Photoshop CS5 x64
    no plugins in use/installed
    no settings changed, not even shortcuts
    Thanks in advance

    Funny replying to myself repeatedly. It seems I have found the problem with no solution in sight. My findings are as follows:
    I am running two external monitors on my laptop (HDMI and VGA), the laptop screen is off. If I unplug one screen, Photoshop is fine with me. No crashes.
    In nVidia settings you can choose what GPU is being used for specific programs. Changing it to the internal one, Photoshop is fine with me. No crashes. Crappy performance.
    I came to the idea of it having to do with dual monitors in my long way through help forums, and one thread here (on problems with 4 monitors) suggested to disable the ScriptingSupport.8li via re-naming which didn't work for me nonetheless. Now it seems up to me whether I'd love to farewell either my powerful GPU or my second monitor for working with Photoshop.
    Still, does anybody have a notion of what else I could possibly do? I won't assume Fujitsu to offer a fix for this, since it is hard to track down precisely where the problem comes from.
    All the best
    enoversum
    Edit: BTW, Windows settings confirm both screens are handled by/connected to the internal GPU, no matter what Photoshop is using ultimately. That seems like normal behaviour, and I cannot switch since the two ports are on the internal card.

  • Transferring notes/grades from CS5 to photoshop element 10

    Hello,
    I own CS5 and just purchased photoshop element 10.
    I have a question concerning how to transfer notes/grades from CS5 to photoshop element 10 ?
    For example, in CS 5, I have given a 5 star grade to a picture. However, when I open photoshop element 10, this grade doesn't show up. Would you know how to transfer it so that I don't have to re-grade all the pict in PE10.
    thanks in advance and best regards,
    Pascal

    Barbara - thank you for this tip.  I did so, and ended up with this
    message:  "This catalog is from an older version of Elements and is
    currently not supported on the Mac platform.  Please create a new catalog
    and then import your media files."  It goes on to indicate that I may be
    able to get membership services through Photoshop.com. . .but I'm wondering
    if you have any advice on the first suggestion, that is - specifically how
    to create a new catalog and then import media files?
    Thanks again!

  • Adobe Photoshop CS2 and Photoshop CS4 on the same system?

    Hi all,
    I was wondering is it possible to have both Adobe Photoshop CS2 and CS4 on my computer at the same time.  I heard that this would cause errors, but if there is, is there a work around for it.  Thanks in advance.

    Quite a few people keep an older version in case there is something not right for them in the newer version.
    Just make sure they are installed in that order.
    Be prepared to have your file associations changed.
    What is you OS by the way?
