Adobe Creative Suite CS2 Universal?

Hello! I've installed my an old version of Photoshop recently on my MacBook Pro and I noticed a lot of lag and slow downs when I'm drawing with my Wacom tablet on the canvas. I was just wondering if Adobe released a universal version of Photoshop and Creative Suite as I need to design my art portfolio for my clients to see. Thanks!

There's a Universal Binary (Beta) of CS3 available here

After downloading & installing application of adobe creative suite cs2 version 6, screen of adobe photoshop cs2 is not opened by clicking icon . message is giving " ausba4.dll " was not present. Please guide me.?

I have downloaded & installed adobe creative suit cs2 version 6 but when I click the icon of adobe photoshop in desktop it is not opened & giving message " this application has failed to start because " ausba4.dll " was not found. reinstalling of the application may fix the problem " I have reinstall & opened many times but even then it is not opened. Please guide me accordingly.

I'd try disabling the Twain_32.8BA plugin in
C:\Program Files\Adobe\Adobe Photoshop CS2\Plug-Ins\Import-Export
You can disable the plugin by putting an ~ (tilde) in front of the name or moving the plugin to your desktop.
Then try photoshop cs2 and see if you still get the error message.
I suspect the error has to do with your scanner driver, since photoshop cs2 does not have an ausba4.dll

Hi I've just upgraded my MacBook Pro from Snow Leopard to Mountain Lion. Now my installed programs:- Quarkxpress 6.5 - Adobe creative suite CS2 - Adobe Acrobat 7.0 professional and Microsoft Office 2004 will not open - I get a banner saying not supported by power mac. Can anyone please help me I really need these programs for my work. Thank you!

hi tuggerose
i think it is bad new for you. if it's any consilation i went through the same thing when i loaded mountain lion when it first came out. i think the problem is that mountain lion is a pure 64bit operating system and the software you have is 32bit. earlier os's were able to emulate 32bit but the new system does not. the answer is new software. i did it and it cost me a load of money and much angst so your not alone.

Note: Mac OS X 10.5 Leopard & Adobe Creative Suite CS2

Hello,
here is an important note for Apple & Adobe business users who are using the Adobe Creative Suite CS2 package for their daily workflow.
http://www.adobe.com/go/leopardfaq
<--- quote from Adobe --->
Question: Will older versions of Adobe creative software—such as Creative Suite 2 and Macromedia Studio 8 software—support Mac OS X Leopard?
Answer (Adobe): While older Adobe applications may install and run on Mac OS X Leopard, they were designed, tested, and released to the public several years before this new operating system became available. You may, therefore, experience a variety of installation, stability, and reliability issues for which there is no resolution. Older versions of our creative software will not be updated to support Mac OS X Leopard. ...
<--- Quote from Adobe --->
In clear words. If an application of the Adobe Creative Suite CS2 package does not work properly under Mac OS X Leopard, you might notice several issues such as bugs, crashes and other incompatibility problems.
So, in the end this means:
" Dear Apple & Adobe user. Use Mac OS X 10.5 on your own risk. "
graphically & sincerely,
" Innovation is good. Too much innovation in a short period of time is becoming counterproductive. "

Thanks Tony, this helped me get some functionality out of InDesign CS2. However, is there a way to get it to keep all the palette options?

Adobe Creative Suites CS2 file compatibility between PC and MAC

We produce a 140 page catalog that was created by a third party for us on a MAC with Adobe CS2 using PhotoShope and InDesign.
I would like to make updates and changes to our catalog file using a PC with Adobe CS2 and send the file back to them for the more complicate work.
How could I do this? The people that created the catalog don't think it is possible and think it would not work. I know this is probably better suited for Adobe to answer but I wanted to obtain as much information from as many sources as possible.
Thanks,
SWFA

This is entirely possible; however, there are a few things you should be careful/aware of. Fonts are always a crossplatform (and even a cross-computer) issue. Even if you have the same opentype or true type fonts loaded on the PC as the Mac users had, there can be reflow problems which can drive an editor batty.
If you are just making copy/text revisions and correction, you might consider by InCopy, InDesign's sister copy editing software. That program allows you to open the designers' InDesign file and make adjustments to the text without altering their graphics and layout. From experience, this is very important!
Until you get that, you can make due opening the Indesign file and making changes. If you get any font subsitution prompts leave the original fonts alone. Things might look wonky, but the designer won't have to lay into the typography after every edit.
Indesign and Incopy rock. and the world needs to see more cross-platform integration.
Have fun.

Adobe Creative Suite CS2 freezing/crashing

I'm not sure if this is an isolated issue or something bigger, but I'm having problems with CS2 programs crashing and freezing up on me. I often run photoshop, illustrator, and inDesign at the same time, and 1 out of the 3 will always freeze up or crash on me either randomly or when it comes to saving a file in one of the 3 programs. I have the 2ghz macbook with the 100gb 7200rpm HD upgrade.

Sorry to be the bearer of bad news but I heard CS simply doesn't work. Might want to check that statement though, its not from experience. From what I heard Quark 6, Virtual PC and CS all don't run, but like I say thats not from experience. I'd suggest using your old one until the Universal Binary is released...

Adobe Creative Cloud and Adobe Creative Suite: New Choices for Customers

Adobe has announced the new Cloud-based model for software distribution, along with new terms for boxed product upgrade eligibility. Beginning with the CS6 releases, when they happen, upgrade pricing on boxed products will only be availble one generation back. There is a limited window to upgrade now to the current versions at a discount.
See http://blogs.adobe.com/conversations/2011/11/adobe-creative-cloud-and-adobe-creative-suite -new-choices-for-customers.html

Eugene:
Based on the current information we have (from the blog post), which may not be correct and which you should not rely upon:
There is some confusion about the word "discount." As used in the blog post, in general there are no "discounts" for upgrades, there is the upgrade price and there is full price. But, also in the blog post, there is a special "discount upgrade" if you choose to upgrade to CS5.5 today (prior to Dec. 31, 2011), which is 20% off the regular upgrade. However, Peter used the word "discount" to distinguish between upgrade pricing and full price. It's probably a good idea to avoid using that word there because of the potential for confusion.
I have CS5 InDesign in work. So I will be able to upgrade that to CS6 when it comes out at the discount price?
You will be able to upgrade to CS6 at upgrade pricing. Not the 20% discount, but it is "discounted" from the full price of CS6.
I'm still using CS2 Illustrator and Photoshop, for the little work I do in those programs, they're fine. But if I want to upgrade them to CS6 I have to pay the full amount of an upgrade, with no discount... or will I have to pay for CS6 in full for both of these programs?
You will have to pay the full price (not the "full amount of an upgrade," whatever that means).
If you elect to upgrade to CS5.5 prior to Dec. 31 of this year, however, then then you can pay the discounted upgrade price to upgrade to CS5.5 (well, CS5 since Photoshop CS5.5 doesn't exist), and then you can pay the CS6 upgrade price in March/April. So you can pay for no upgrades (full price) or two upgrades (one of which is 20% off).
At the moment I can upgrade CS2, photoshop and Illustrator for €240 each, to CS5. So wouldn't I just be able to do that now and then buy the CS6 upgrade at a much later date perhaps just before CS7 comes out?
Yes, you can do that.
If CS6 has the tools to basically go "File>Export>Epub" and I get a fully working epub file without having to trash about in code afterwards or make complex tagging in InDesign, then I'll be buying it.
It looks like EPUB is evolving pretty fast, so even if ID CS6 fully supports what you want out of EPUB on Day 1, I bet you'll need to be prepared to postprocess it on Day 2. Or at least long before Day 200.

Adobe Creative Suite 2 Will not work after deactivation

First off, I don't get this company. I had to let that out.
I had an issue I started out with by not knowing which computer had my Adobe Photoshop on so I ended up Googling an answer over how to deactivate my product. It led me to a chat with a representative:

After doing what she asked, I deactivated, and uninstalled my Adobe Creative Suite 2. Everything. So after all this, I reinstalled, entered in the new serial I got through their webpage for the special version after creating an Adobe ID. Guess what? After an unpleasant re-installation process (there is three downloaded parts you have to download for CS2 in which disc2 and disc3 are set on a default path that is separate from disc1 which you need to converge being it creates two folders with similar naming structures), and I ended up opening Adobe Photoshop only to find it say the very same thing I meant to avoid: your serial, name, organization, yadha, yadha, is incorrect/missing. Adobe will now close.
So frustrated with this company, and its support.

Well, now I cannot reproduce the error because I cannot install it again! Woohoo! For some reason, all three discs executables try installing the folders, files, etc... into a different folder making it when I try installing CS2 impossible since it asks for Disc 2, Disc 3, etc..
ANYWAY, my main issue was began with when I somehow managed to install it correctly, I got the very same message I contacted you guys over: Adobe Photoshop will now close because missing serial number something like that, and following it saying it will close.

I tried to install my adobe creative suite 6 design standard but it wont let me install. How can i install it?

My mother purchased Adobe Creative Suite 6 Design Standard back in 2012. When she purchased it for me, i did not need it at the time. However I am now a second year architect major at Hampton University and i need the Adobe Suite to use for my representation class. So i decided to finally open the box this semester and install but it wouldn't let me install because i have a MacBook and the adobe suite is for windows. My mother paid $350 and i still have the proof of purchase. What can i do or you guys do to help me install my purchased product? I have the impression that my mother wasted her money. Please help

G4 MMD with OS 10.2.8 using Adobe Creative Suite 2 & upgrading to Tiger?

I have a Powermac G4 Mirror Door running Mac OS X v. 10.2.8. It has, Adobe Acrobat 7.0 Pro, Adobe Bridge, Adobe Creative Suite 2, Adobe Illustrator CS2, In Design CS2, Photoshop CS2, Version CS2, Creator Professional 7.0.3. My question is, if I upgrade my OS to Tiger using Archive and Install will the above listed programs still work?
Thanks everyone,
kryla

Hi- actually no, I had nothing unusual- anything questionable went into the previous system file, but I've had no cause to deal with the previous system file.
Offhand, if I remember, here's what worked without any problem, although there were some complaints when leopard first came out that these things would NOT work.
these were ok:
office 2004, filemaker pro6, quicken 2005, gradebook, personal organizer (chronos),photoshop elements 4, stuff for canoscan 8400F, inspiration, isay, ....can't think of anything else off hand; no problems with printers either.
Those programs you mention...I just don't know.. maybe disable them? All I can say is that Leopard is running great on my old pb and I'm going to keep it going as long as I can.
I'm not sure I'm going to put leopard on the mirrored doors desktop, it is still stable, never crashes, but maybe, or maybe I should just quit while I'm ahead.

Multiple Errors on Adobe Creative Suite 5.5 Program Launch

Hi, I'm having trouble with my Adobe Creative Suite - I have the Master Collection 5.5 on Windows 7 that I installed a few years ago but recently (without any changes to the computer at all now...) I have error messages occurring when I try to launch every program - Photoshop for example says 'either not designed to work on windows or contains an error' and Illustrator just says 'an unknown error has occurred' . How can I fix this?
P.s I do have the disks and serial numbers but I cannot remember my activation key. I also bought the programs at university and was assured I could keep using it after I graduated - will this be a problem?
P.p.s I'm dreadful with technology - can anyone walk me through this in baby steps please?
Thanks
Amy

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.
