Are there issues with running CS 6 on Windows 8? (NOT the CC edition)

I'm looking at getting a new computer and am wondering what issues I'll have using my CS6 suite if I get a Windows 8 machine. I know that the Creative Cloud versions are compatible, but what about the 'old' software?

So, it seems my issue with the Limited Internet connection has been resolved. I didn't use my computer for two days and this afternoon when I turned it on I was still having issues. However, I went into the HP Support Assistant and it popped up that I had some updates to download and install, so I let it do its thing. It took a while because the Internet kept cutting out, but once the update for the Intel Wireless finally installed, my connection has STAYED CONNECTED. Finally!
I don't know why when I went into the wireless properties it said "device is working properly" and when I tried to Update the driver it said "your driver is the latest version" or whatever.
I suggest you go to the HP Support Assistant and check for updates in the "Updates and Tune-Ups" section. It was kind of random, but knock on wood my Wireless connection issue looks to be gone.
Hope this helps
P.S.
Here's a screen shot of what the HP Support Assistant (it is the one with the big question mark logo) main screen looks like :

Are there issues with Photoshop Elements 4.0 and Internet Explorer 8.0?

I recently upgraded to IE 8.0 and got a message that My catalog.psa file was missing. I recreated this file and then was able to open the organizer. My original tags, collection etc. were missing. I have done a search for any.pas file and cannot find the original extensive file I had that must have had about 2000 photos organized in that catalog. Because of Outlook Express issues at the same time of the IE 8.0 upgrade Microsoft backed out the IE 8.0 to IE 7.0 and this did not help me to restore my original My Catalog.pas file. I see two psa files associated with 4.0 : My Catalog-undo.pas and My Catalog.psa. If I tried to select the My Catalog-undo.pas I get the following message...There was a problem opening The Catalog named "My Catalog-undo.psa. Another user or application may have the catalog open, or one or more files may be missing, out of date, or damaged. The ODBC data source reported the following error: "[Microsoft] ODBC Microsoft Access Driver] The Microsoft Jet database engine cannot find the input table or query IdTable.' make sure it exists and that its name is spelled correctly.* Attempt to compact and recover this catalog, then open again? OK Cancel
Please help me understand what i must do to get my original My Catalog file installed. Thank you.

"I recently upgraded to IE 8.0 and got a message that My catalog.psa file was missing." Aside from the fact that IE 8.0 has nothing to do with PSE, I am extremely skeptical that the upgrade to IE 8 gave you an error message that your My Catalog.psa file was missing.
Your catalog may have been accidentally moved or deleted, but I refuse to believe that it has anything to do with IE 8. By now, there are many PSE users who have upgarded to IE 8, and I hear no complaints from them.
When you did the search, did you search in hidden folders? Usually, PSE puts its catalog into hidden folders, so you need to make sure you search hidden folders.
If you can't find the catalog file via searching in hidden folders, you might want to look in the trash can, or if that fails, try something called an "undelete utility" which may be able to recover erased files. There are freeware versions you can download.
As you discovered, you cannot recreate catalogs. Which means that you need to make regular backups of your catalog file and your photos, so if something accidentally happens to your catalog, you still have a recent copy. I am assuming that you have not done so. I am also assuming that whenever your fix this problem, you will begin making regular backups.
Good luck.

Are there issues with DNG Converter reading CR2 files from Canon 5D Mark III?

Are there any problems running Firefox 4 on Windows XP?

I was unable to run a football match on VIPStand.net yesterday with Firefox 4 on Windows XP.

I would not expect a problem under normal circumstances.
Oracle's listener is set for a default port 1521 for database requests, port 8080 for HTMLDB requests. The database connections generally find an empty port above 1024 when establishing a connection.
So, if IIS does not want to use 1521 or 8080, you will generally see no challenges. Even then it is fairly easy to move ORacle's port requirements elsewhere.
Using port 8080 seems reasonably common, but that is easily changed - search for sethttpport in this forum. IIS tromping on 1521 would be rare as it has been a well known Oracle service port since, roughly, forever.

Issue with running Linux on a Windows 7 64 bit (on MC7 mac book pro via Boot Camp)

Having issues with your Card Readers in Windows 7 not working? Here's resolution!

You do not need drivers for the card reader. There are NO Windows 7 drivers.
(1.) Click on the Start button and then choose Control Panel.
(2.) Click on the Administrative Tools a window will open.
(3.) In the Administrative Tools window, double-click on the Computer Management
(4.) When Computer Management opens, click on Disk Management on the left side of the window, located under Storage.
(5.) This is where you will see Drives listed. The Card Reader will be listed as 1-4. Just right click & assign Drive Letter.
Right click on each of the drives 1-4 and assign a Drive Letter. Now place your SD card in the correct slot and an a pop up for auto play will show. Now you reader works and will also show when you open COMPUTER it will show them as removable drives with proper drive letters. It took me several days to figure out after no help from HP or internet search. So when found the drives listed I just right clicked saw assign drive and it worked. Hope a lot of people searching on internet find this reply so that it will help them get there card reader working again under Windows 7 because even there tech's don't have an answer. Well good luck because this will work!!!

We are having issues with WLS 5.1   pdf   SSL

We are running IE 5.0 and above browser with our application and the server is Weblogic 5.1 We are having issues with a generated pdf being sent down from the server using the response outputStream in an SSL connection. We tried setting the content type before getting the outputstream. IE comes back with a dialog for download. When we select either of the options IE comes back with "Unable to download <url> from <server>. We are using WLS 5.1 service pack 6. Any help will be greatly appreciated


          I tried this option, but did not help. We have two weblogic servers on different
          machines. One works fine in downloading pdf file over https, but not the other.
          The error we are getting after selecting it to save it to a file:
          IE cannot download xx.pdf from www.xxx.com
          From the link, when we say "save target as", we get different error as:
          This file could not be written to cache.
          Someone suggested to pass "pragma: public" or "pragama: no-cache" in the header.
          But we are just simply serving it as a file, neither from servlet nor from jsp.
          So I suspect it something to do with our weblogic proxy or security configuration.
          Any ideas/help is much appreciated.
          Thanks

TS1717 are there problems with iTunes upgrading from Vista to Windows 7?

are ther problems upgrading iTunes from Vista to Windows 7?

The best method is to use Windows Easy Transfer first to backup all your data, and do custom clean install. And install all your apps and drivers afterwards.
Yes it should work. Make sure you are ready, and have all the latest drivers and applications ahead of time.
There are some "gottchas" with the upgrade from Vista.

A common misconception of unknown origin. The intake and the exhaust for the cooling fan on the 13" MB and MBP are both located on the rear slot at the base of the hinge. In fact, you can actually see the divider that separates the intake flow from the output flow. If it were through the keyboard crevices, then an awful lot of overheats would result from people using impermeable keyboard covers, as well as Apple's warranty department would be flipping out over the Apple store carrying such covers. iSkin ProTouch FX Keyboard Cover for all MacBooks - Black Printed Keys on White - Apple Store (U.S.)
Does one think that Apple sells these only for use when the Notebook is off??? http://store.apple.com/us/product/TW...co=MTM3OTUwMDE Closing the lid, whilst operating the unit actually results in cooler operation due to reduction in power consumed by operating the display, which in supporting the on-board display generates heat far greater than simply powering the video port..

once again, I've tried a few of these keyboard covers. the Moshi keyboard cover is the ONLY one I can recommend. the others are too thick or change the keyboard experience too much.

Re: Is it safe to use MBP with screen lid closed? Leave charge on always?
1. Closing the cover will cause more heat. This is not because of covering the keyboard very much (though it does help some heat be retained). It's mainly because of the shape of the hinge and the fact when closed it covers up the back vent a lot more. For the best cooling, it is best to have the screen open. Just run it as a dual monitor, but make the external the Primary monitor, and if you don't want to use the built in, just turn its backlight off and don't use it.
2. The thing you plug into the wall is not a battery charger. The actual "charger" is built into the computer. It knows when to charge and when not to. If the little light on the power plug is amber, then its charging your battery. When its green, its just powering the laptop and NOT charging your battery at all.

Re: Is it safe to use MBP with screen lid closed? Leave charge on always?
I'd leave the lid open, at least partially...yes it may be fine not doing that, but you are making heat dissipate worse, of course could even theoretically hurt the screen.
As for the battery...well there's really only two choices, have it plugged in or not. As others mentioned, you can't overcharge the battery. It can be damaged a bit from heat, but of course the number one thing that's going to damage it is discharging it...so it's a no brainer-use it plugged in whenever possible, and try to charge it whenever possible when it's not plugged in.

Nope. Apple would disagree with you on that one. Any "closure", which is, when compared to the amount of CFM, is insignificant. In fact, the opening size remains the same. it is only deflected at a slight angle when the lid is closed. Tilt your MBP and see. As well, shutting down the display lowers the heat being generated, even in the lower case. As I said, if it were a problem, Apple would not be selling stands designed to operate your unit in the closed position as the original poster of this thread proposes to do.

Check your trash. I had some old uninstalled files in there. Deleted and restated itunes. seems to work.

After several years of use very satisfied with Firefox, recently loaded version (4.0.1) severely slows my browsing, and even my system, especially when there are pictures or videos. I said that this was not the case before and my system is Windows XP SP3.

I have had a similar problem with my system. I just recently (within a week of this post) built a brand new desktop. I installed Windows 7 64-bit Home and had a clean install, no problems. Using IE downloaded an anti-virus program, and then, because it was the latest version, downloaded and installed Firefox 4.0. As I began to search the internet for other programs to install after about maybe 10-15 minutes my computer crashes. Blank screen (yet monitor was still receiving a signal from computer) and completely frozen (couldn't even change the caps and num lock on keyboard). I thought I perhaps forgot to reboot after an update so I did a manual reboot and it started up fine.
When ever I got on the internet (still using firefox) it would crash after anywhere between 5-15 minutes. Since I've had good experience with FF in the past I thought it must be either the drivers or a hardware problem. So in-between crashes I updated all the drivers. Still had the same problem. Took the computer to a friend who knows more about computers than I do, made sure all the drivers were updated, same problem. We thought that it might be a hardware problem (bad video card, chipset, overheating issues, etc.), but after my friend played around with my computer for a day he found that when he didn't start FF at all it worked fine, even after watching a movie, or going through a playlist on Youtube.
At the time of this posting I'm going to try to uninstall FF 4.0 and download and install FF 3.6.16 which is currently on my laptop and works like a dream. Hopefully that will do the trick, because I love using FF and would hate to have to switch to another browser. Hopefully Mozilla will work out the kinks with FF 4 so I can continue to use it.
I apologize for the lengthy post. Any feedback would be appreciated, but is not necessary. I will try and post back after I try FF 3.16.6.
