Appleworks 6, photoshop and Illustrator CS2 will not open!! Am I totally screwed?? or does someone have a solution, the most expensive £20 I've spent as I have lost my livelihood!! HEEEELLLPPP

Please HELP ME!!!

All of those applications are PowerPC applications, which will no longer work in Lion. You really should have done your research before you upgraded. The only 2 solutions are: Go back to Snow Leopard OR upgrade your apps. I would recommend upgrading your apps. AppleWorks was discontinued a long time ago. I would suggest Pages or Microsoft Word.

Illustrator CS2 will not open (I do think it can be acrobat)

Illustrator, hangs at the startup screen when “reading fonts”.
I have read about the acrobat issue but I am running on Mac 10.6.5 the Adobe reader 9.4.1
http://kb2.adobe.com/cps/534/cpsid_53468.html
I read many forums and the above link fixed the issue for people.
If I am not using 8.2 then what else can be going on ?
It might be a font issue. I am not sure how to tes that.
Thanks for any help you can provide. I do not use the program often and wanted to give it a try again.

Open your Font book application and remove/ disable any fonts you do not currently need, then selectively reenable/ add them back until the issue reoccurs.

CS2 will not open. Greeted with "Your Adobe Photoshop user name...

CS2 will not open. Greeted with message "Your Adobe Photoshop user name, organization, or serial number is missing or invalid. The application cannot continue and must now exit." I click OK and PS closes. I've been using this regestered copy on this PC (running Vista 32) for years (daily or at least weekly) without problem until today. Any ideas on how I can get it working again? I have disc somewhere? Thank you.

Unfortunately your cs2 disc is no good except for the things such as the goodies or extras that came on the cd, because adobe disabled the activation servers for cs2 products.
You can try this:
(in other words something removed the info from the windows registry)

More than likely though, you'll have reinstall photoshop cs2 using the new non activating installer.
Use just the photoshop cs2 download and serial on that page.

I re-downloaded my Photoshop recently and Adobe Bridge no longer displays my Nikon NEF files and Camera Raw will not open them.

I re-downloaded my Photoshop recently and Adobe Bridge no longer displays my Nikon NEF files and Camera Raw will not open them. I get a message saying that Camera Raw does not support my camera type but it always has in the past. The bridge no longer shows the picture view of my NEF files. These are Nikon NEF files from the Nikon 5100 DSLR camera. How do I fix this?

When you re-installed Photoshop, you also re-installed the version of Camera Raw which shipped with Photoshop - in other words you reverted to an older version of Camera Raw which does not support the D5100.
Camera Raw plug-in | Supported cameras
The D5100 was first supported in Camera Raw version 6.4.

Freehand can't convert EPS files into editable vectors. I
usually run
EPS files through Illustrator and then into Frehand. If you
don't have
Illustrator you can convert the EPS into a PDF and that
Freehand will
sometimes convert into editable vectors (though it does
involve a lot
more clean up than going through Illustrator.)

Illustrator Cs5 will not open. Recently upgraded hard Drive and upgraded to Maverick OS 10.9.3. Where should I start troubleshooting?

gj,
Unless it has worked since the upgrading, I believe you should uninstall, run the Cleaner Tool, and reinstall.

Just upgraded Photoshop and now it will not launch

Just upgraded Photoshop and now it will not launch.

The rule of thumb I follow says to figure on 50 to 100 times the size of your largest file ever multiplied by the number of files you have open. I have seen the scratch file exceed 300 GB once, an admittedly rare occurrence, but it often exceeds 200 GB when stitching large panoramas and the like.
As an example—and stressing that I'm aware that others have even more scratch space than I do—I keep two dedicated, physically separate hard drives as my primary and secondary Photoshop scratch disks and a lot of GB free on my boot drive for the OS. I also have 16 GB of RAM installed.
Additionally, if you only have a single HD, i.e. your boot drive, you'd need it to be large enough to accommodate both the swap files of the OS as well as Photoshop's scratch.
The scratch often exceeds 300 GB when working with very large pano shot, for instance; and in one extreme case I've seen it grow to over 800 GB.

Adobe Illustrator CS6 will not open.

I have a problem: the illustrator app will not open. I get the pop-up: To open "Adobe Illustrator CS6" you need to install the legacy Java SE 6 runtime. Click "More Info..." to visit the legacy Java SE 6 download website.
Both clicking "More Info..." and "OK" only make the pop-up disappear, but lead absolutely nowhere.
From Oracle.com I have already downloaded and installed 'jre-8u25-macosx-x64.dmg'. After install and restart i keep getting the same pop-up as before and i still can't open Ai. Any advice?

hi,
I updated from mavericks to Yosemite today which was a very bad idea. I had issues with my internal sound adapter and the system start is now very slow. I might going back to mavericks..
However, I wish the above link you gave here would work. After clicking the blue download button nothing happens. Any other idea how I could go back from my actual java 8-31 back to java 6?
Thanks, H

Photoshop's licensing information might have lost when you restored it to new HD. Re-install Photoshop CS4 and enter the same serial key for PS CS4 which you used before.
In case you need the download link for PS CS4, you can get it from here. Download CS4 products
Let me know in case you still get any issues.

I have a Macbook Pro. I updated to 10.9.4 an downloaded the trial for Creative Cloud. It downloaded and installed but will not open. I shut down and tried reinstalling. Same problem.

Thanks.

I stumbled upon the solution. In addition to downloading Creative Cloud, I needed to go back to the website and download trials for the programs I want to use--Photoshop and Lightroom. Once I did that, I was in business. Would save trouble if that was made clear on the download site.
Thanks

PhotoShop Elements 9 Edit will not open.

After opening 2 or 3 images in Elements 9 edit a dialog box will come up and say "Elements is already running but is not responding close the Elements process or restart your system". I do not see where I can close the running Elements process. I have used Elements 9 for several months and have never run into this problem. Can anyone suggest a solution to my problem?

Thank you for the response. My Elements 9 Editor problem seemed to fix its
self. After restarting the computer the Editor would open for 2 or 3 images
then refuse to open again. After the fifth restarting of the computer the
Editor has continued to work and now seems fine. Not sure what caused the
problem in the first place. I will use the advise given below if the problem
starts again.

I was told I had to upgrade Firefox to 4.0, downloaded the dmg, launched it and now Firefox will not open at all.

I was told I had to upgrade Firefox to 4.0, downloaded the dmg, launched it and now Firefox will not open at all. It tells me "The operation can't be completed because you don't have permission to access some of the items." Also, that "Firefox cannot be opened because of a problem." And it give a bunch of code. This is my main browser. What is happening here? My OS X is 10.6.7. Has this caused a problem?

If you right-click on your Photoshope.exe, select Properties, there should be a Compatibility tab. There you can select Windows XP, Windows 2000, Winows 98 or 95. One of these should allow you to open Photoshop 6, unless you mean CS6.
