Both 32 and 64 bit versions of Photoshop CS6 installed

Hiw can I uninstall the 32 bit version?

You can't. You need to uninstall both and then reinstall only the 64bit version, if that is what you want.

How to define 64 or 32 bit version of Photoshop is installed on computer?

Hi,
Is there way to determinate (from registry for example) 64 or 32 bit version of Photoshop is installed on computer?
Both versions (32 and 64 bit) have identical records in registry.
Dmitry

If you are a 64 bit app you can see both the 32 and 64 bit parts of the registry. See the WOW64 section for the 32 bit entries. If you are a 32 bit process you should only see the 32 bit side of the registry.
The interesting keys would be here
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Adobe\Photoshop\12.0\
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Wow6432Node\Adobe\Photoshop\12.0\
If you can find the second key then you are a 64 bit machine and the wow6432 is where the 32 bit version is and the other key is where the 64 bit version is. If you only find the first key you are 32 bit version and that is where the 32 bit version is. This is in theory as what happens if a user only installs the 64 bit version.
What I do is...
If I want to launch 32 I run cscript out of windows\syswow64. The 32 bit version of cscript.
If I want to launch 64 I run cscript out of windows\system32. The 64 bit version of cscript.
Which is pretty funny given the names of the folders!
The type of user running the program of course plays into this as well. I am an Administrator and have that pesky 'are you sure you want to do something' dialog boxes OFF.
I also think you can look at some environment variables to see if you are 32 running on a 64 bit os. But I have not played with those much. Here are some interesting ones from my machine.
PROCESSOR_ARCHITECTURE=AMD64
ProgramFiles=H:\Program Files
ProgramFiles(x86)=H:\Program Files (x86)
ProgramW6432=H:\Program Files

Files default to 32 bit version of Photoshop CS6

After I installed Photoshop CS 6 64 bit on my PC, I discovered I also needed the 32 bit version for twain support, so I then added the 32 bit version. My problem is now all tiff, PSD, etc. files in Windows Explorer as well as the "Edit In Photoshop" command in Lightroom defalts to and opens up the 32 bit version. How can I change this to default to the 64 bit version?
I would appreciate any help in correcting this problem. TIA

No it was in install on a brand new machine, no previous version installed. I did first install just the 64 bit version and when I discoved 64 bit did not support 32 bit, I added the 32 bit version.
And yes I am selecting the 64 bit version in the open with dialog box, but it still defalts to the 32 bit version. I have the save problem with Microsoft Powerpoint, I have an older version installed to assist some clients that haven't upgradded, and I can not get explorer to open the older version and keeps opeing the current version.
So yes it is a windows problem, just wish that Lightroom could be set to open the 64 bit version like you can with Bridge.

Issues with 64 bit version of PS CS6 and now CC hanging, also sniffer_gpu.exe

I cannot use the 64 bit version of Photoshop for awhile now. I had hoped that with CC coming out that would fix the problem, but it hasn't. I am able to use the 32 bit version, so after putting some time in with Adobe tech support to no avail after some hours, I'd just used that, but with the problem continuing in the latest edition I figured I should deal with it.
I am running Windows 7 pro, an intel core i7 950 processor, and an AMD (ATI) Radeon HD 5700 video card.
Both 64 bit versions of Photoshop hang for me before I can open any file. Looking in the resource monitor, at the wait chain, it states, 'one or more threads of Photoshop.exe are waiting to finish network I/O.'. The only way I can close the app then is by manually killing it in task manager or resource monitor.
One thing I've noticed that may or may not be related, sniffer_gpu.exe only appears in the resource monitor while running a 64 bit version of Photoshop, both CS6 and CC. Once it appears, it seems to continually use 12% of my cpu, and even after I kill Photoshop, it continues to run and use 12% of my cpu, until I kill it as well. This does not happen at all when I run the 32 bit versions, I do not even see sniffer_gpu.exe appear.
Anyone have a clue what the problem might be?

Way back when, I did indeed uninstall and reinstall my Catalyst drivers, still no luck, still same problem.
Finally today, some 6 months later, I was again dealing with Photoshop Phone tech support for another hour or two, including much hold time, finally having the issue excalated, as all software and drivers seemed up to date, and yet all versions of the gpu sniffer program still could not identify my gpu.
After I got off the phone with them, I went to the AMD site and followed instructions on how to uninstall and reinstall their software. One step I had not thought of or tried was, after uninstalling the Catalyst software, repairing the .Net 4.5.1 framework through the Microsoft site before reinstalling the Catalyst software. It somehow seems that though the Catalyst installer software supposedly installs the .Net 4.5 framework, it cannot, unless the framework is already installed...
Anyway, this does seem to have finally gotten the 64bit Version of Photoshop to finally work on my desktop.

How to download a font onto Mac version of photoshop CS6?

How do I download a font that I had on my older pc version of photoshop onto my new mac and mac version of photoshop CS6?

Hi there,
If you still have access to your older PC, you can take the fonts from that computer by following these directions. You should be able to put them onto a flash drive or external hard drive, then install them on your Mac from there. Depending on how you got the fonts in the first place, you may be able to download them online (be wary of font licenses, however—make sure it is legal to be using them). To install a font onto your Mac:
1) Locate the font file on your flash drive/external/CD/downloads folder (I'm installing a downloaded font in this example). Double click to open the folder.
2) Double click on the font file (typically a .ttf or .otf file) and the following window will pop up. Click "Install Font."
3) This automatically opens FontBook, which is the basic font management software that comes with your Mac. You will then be able to see the font in your installed fonts list, which will make it available for use within Photoshop.
I hope this helps. Let us know if you need more assistance!

How to set up the interaction between InDesign CS6 8.0 and Photoshop CS 6 - if Photoshop is installed and the 64 and 32-bit?? default InDesign refers to the 64-bit version of Photoshop and scripts do not work.

Nice of you to point it out here as I at least don’t follow Mr.Nash’s blog regularly.

I downloaded the 32 bit version of photoshop cc 2014. When trying to install I get the message that installer failed to initialize and that this could be due to a missing file. Has anybody a solution ?

Did you unzip the entire contents of the download zip file onto your hard drive before running the installer? You need to do that.
I have installed it myself and it went in just fine.

Why does CC install 2 versions of Photoshop CS6

Why Does CC install 2 versions of Photoshop, CS6, a 64-it version and another version, on my 64 bit windows8 machine? Why not install just one version?Do I need both?
Thanks

32 bit is installed in case you need to use plugins which have not been updated for 64 bit Photoshop e.g. TWAIN for scanners.

Is there a way to install just the 32 bit version of Photoshop CS5 on a Windows 7 64 bit machine?

I have a custom built Java 6 application that doesn't like Photoshop CS5 64 bit edition. The program copies over a file from the network to the local machine and then opens it in Photoshop. The user manipulates the image and saves the changes. The user then completes the image and the application copies the image back to the server. The problem we're having is: When we use Photoshop CS5 64-bit, it takes about 2 minutes for Photoshop to open the image. The file is copied over within 2 seconds and the Photoshop icon on the windows taskbar starts flashing. But then you spend a few minutes waiting for it to open.
Some things that I have tried to isolate the problem:
- I found you can copy the file somewhere else, double click on it and the image will open in Photoshop before the script is able to open the file.
- I tried uninstalling Photoshop and reinstalling just the 64 bit edition without the 32 bit installation. The script just stops working in this situation.
- I tried uninstalling CS5 and installing CS3. The image opens as soon as the file is copied over.
What I would like to try next is to install just the CS5 32 bit version. But the installer is being uncooperative and will only allow either the 64 bit version or both the 64 and 32 bit versions. So, back to my question: Is there a way to install just the 32 bit version of Photoshop CS5 on a Windows 7 64 bit machine?

Do you mean schroot? If so I'm not sure exactly how well that will work out, because the part that depends on python is a deamon that handles communication between the USB dongle and the Tux Droid which may mean hacking the deamon a bit so ether way this does not seem like it will be a easy task.

I own a PC version of Photoshop CS6. Just bought a Mac and want to use it... what can I do

I am now a mac user but still have my registered PC version of Photoshop CS6. Can I pay to change it over and how do I do this ? I am willing to spend the $10 per month too. I was able to install my lightroom on the mac with the registration number but not ohotoshop

Lightroom serial numbers are multi-platform: they work on both Mac and Windows.
Photoshop serial numbers are platform specific: Mac only or Windows only.
Obtain a Mac serial number using this process (available for CS6 only, not earlier versions)
Order product | Platform, language swap
Then obtain the CS6 Mac installer from Download CS6 products
Install then enter your new Mac serial number when prompted.

Why when I install a stand alone trial version of Photoshop CS6 I get extended installation?

Why when I install a stand alone trial version of Photoshop CS6 I get extended installation? I want only CS6.

Hi Ilya Nazarenko,
We would like to inform you that the installer for both Standard and extended version are same, as trial you get Extended version.

Try downloading the trial. It ought to detect that you have a 64-bit system.
You aren't using Vista, are you? PSE 13 requires at least win 7 and I think a few folks with vista have gotten a similar error message on trying to install it.

I have used Photoshop 5.5 for many years and it is all I need and more. I just bought a new HP Win 7 computer and tried loading my old CD. I won'f work because meant for 16-bit computers. Can I buy a 64-bit version of Photoshop 5.5?

I have used Photoshop 5.5 for years and it is all I need and more. I bought a new PC with Win 7 and tried loading my Photoshop 5.5 CD. It won't work because it is 16-bit, the new computer is 64-bit. Can I buy a 64-bit version of Photoshop 5.5?

Hi,
You actually tried to install photoshop 5.5 and got the message about it being 16 bit?
(usually it's only the installer that is 16 bit and the actual program is 32 bit)
Photoshop 5.5 should work on windows 7 x64 if you don't have more than 1 TB of free space on your hard drive.
Your sure it's photoshop 5.5 and not an earlier photoshop version.
You might try copying the folder that says photoshop off the cd onto your hard drive and then running the Setup.exe
Anyway, check how much free space your hard drive has and if it's more than 1 TB, then no use trying to use photoshop 5.5 because it won't work.
(photoshop versions before photoshop cs can't see free space on hard drives if it's more than 1 TB and would give a scratch disk full message if you try to run them)

Both 32 and 64 bit versions of Photoshop CS6 installed
