Can I open a CS2 file in CS4 without any problems?

I need to send a file to someone with CS4, and I'm still running CS2. I'd like to know if they'll have any trouble before I send it.

The Paragraph Composer was updated for CS4. Editing existing text will make it re-format (it might be a consolation CS4's paragraph do look better, actually).

  • Can't open InD CS2 files in InD CS4

    I have tons of files created in CS2 version of InDesign on Windows XP Pro. On my machine, I installed CS4 Design Standard on the same OS. Now, when trying to open most of CS2 files, I'm getting the error message "Cannot open "filename". Please upgrade your plug-ins to their latest version, or upgrade to the latest version of Adobe InDesign." But no plug-in mentioned in this message.
    Is there any solution to a problem?

    Are you being offered the option, in CS4, to open the CS2 files with
    missing plugins?
    That's the message I get when I'm trying to open CS2 files (not all of them but many):
    CS2 is installed on machine nearby. I tried exporting CS2 files to INX on that computer and then opened them in CS4, and noticed another issue: some content was missing (e.g. anchored text frames).
    By trial and error worked out such a routine:
    1) In CS2, disable all 3d party plug-ins
    2) Open CS2 file, delete all the content and export in INX
    3) Open INX, drag-and-drop pages from CS2 file
    4) Save as a new CS2 file
    5) Open in CS4
    It works, but I wonder if there's an easier way?

  • Can't open flash/fla files (with CS4) - might be version issue

    Hi,
    I am trying to edit a website for a friend (built with Flash and XML) and i can't seem to get into any of the .Fla files.
    I don't know if it is my version of Flash (CS4) or the files and not sure how i could test it. Could also just be a CS5 file hence i can't open it.
    Any help or suggestions would be great. Please help i don't know what to do, haha.
    Here is an upload of one of the files i am talking about
    http://www.2shared.com/file/kb2NKm0i/book-verification.html
    I wasn't sure which hosts were allowed so if i messed up please let me know.
    Thanks

    Hi Asher,
    You  cannot open a file which is saved in future version such as CS5  version  in Flash CS4 .This is as designed .
    If you need to open a CS5 file in CS4 , You need to save the file as CS4 file  and then open in Flash CS4 .
    Thanks

  • ID CS4- Can only open ID CS2 files through ID not by clicking

    Running Windows XP and just installed CS4 upgrade from CS2. Love the new look, but now I can't just open CS2 files by double clicking on them. Have tried to right click the file and use "open with CS4 all the time" but that doesn't work either. I always receive the same error message: "xxx.indd is not a valid Win32 application."
    The only way to open my old CS2 files is to go through File>open inside of CS4. It's becoming a little annoying... does anyone have any ideas of how to fix it?
    Thank you!
    -Julie

    I'm not sure what that is, so I guess not... My computer is on a network at work and the IT department is often skeptical of downloading new programs--- is there a built-in optimizer in Win XP?

  • Can't open canon raw files in cs4

    I recently had to rebuild my pc after a problem that stopped a few of my programs working (I'd installed xampp so I could use wordpress on the pc but it stopped cs4, firefox, video studio and a bunch of other stuff working - removal and reinstalling did no use, I had to build a new disc).
    I reinstalled cs4 and got all the updates but now I find I can't open can raw files with cs4 or bridge. I tried replacing the Camera Raw.8bi file with the latest file from adobe as per their web instructions but it still doesn't work. So I tried the adobe dng convertor (version 8.3) and ran the files through that, still no luck, I can't open the files.
    I could open them wwith canons own software and save as a tiff, but then I'm losing a lot of information.
    I'm still running vista home premium - no I can't upgrade to windows 8.1 and use the latest photoshop and lightroom software because 8.1 doesn't work with my nikon scanner or my epson large format printer. It doesn't like a few other items I have either.
    I remember I had to download a few files a couple of years ago when I first bought the pc (a whole 3 years ago) as I was having trouble with photoshop and raw files then but I can't remember the name of the file or where I got it from.
    Anyone able to help? much appreciated if you can.

    Hi John,
    Adobe told me to replace the relevant file, which I did. The trouble is that went I do this then 'camera raw' disappears from the 'help / plugins' list and there doesn't seem to be any way of getting back other than uninstalling and reinstalling cs4, and once I do this it overwrites the files again...
    I can't remember having this trouble when I first installed it a couple of years ago but I do seem to remember having to replace a file somewhere but that may have been on an earlier version.
    I have an old EOS 5d mk1 & a 7d mk1, so it's not as though the camera is unknown to cs4.
    Regards,
    Doug

  • How can I open 100D RAW files in CS4, I have tried everything.

    Hi guys, can someone please help me.  I am trying to open 100D RAW files in PS CS4.  I have tried so many things including downloading the plug in and even DNG converting but would rather be able to open RAW files direct and not have to convert everything to DNG anyway as it is time wasting.  Can someone please help!  Thanks, Jen.

    http://helpx.adobe.com/creative-suite/kb/camera-raw-plug-supported-cameras.html
    The 100D is supported from ACR 7.4, which was released shortly after the camera came on market. ACR 7.x requires Photoshop CS6 to run, and won't work in the by now very old Photoshop CS4.
    So your only option is to convert to DNG and open those in ACR 5.x / PS CS4. (or upgrade, of course, but I take it you don't want that).
    EDIT: assuming Canon 100D.

  • Message - Can't open a Scratch File & Photoshop CS4 Won't load

    I just installed Photoshop CS4, both the 32 and 64 bit versions (part of the "Master Collection"). After opening the programs I changed the scratch disk location to two separate drives other than where Photoshop resides, where it had placed said file as a default. Now neither Photoshop versions will open.
    I get the following message:
    "Could not open a scratch file because the scratch file is locked..."
    Just one problem, there is no scratch file visible on either of the two drives...
    My operating system is Vista Ultimate on a 64 bit Quad CPU machine with 8Gb of ram, two Raptor HDs, four 750Gb HDs configured into one RAID 5 drive and Nvida GEForce 8800GTS graphics card.
    Has anyone here experienced a similar problem???
    Cheers,
    Michael

    Had the same problem, and called Adobbe tech support, who solved the problem <g>.  In Computer find the disk you want to use as a scratch disk, select, right click, and choose properties.  Go to the Security tab and highlight Users (your name) and look at the Permissions.  To use as a scratch disk, Full control needs to be checked (Allowed).  If it's not, edit the Permissions for Users, and check Full Control.  Apply and OK. Setting that disk as a scratch disk should now work fine.

  • Is it possible to open a CS4 file in CS3 without any problems?

    Or do CS4 files have any extra things that would cause problems if I tried to open it in CS3? If so, what could I do to solve this?

    It's not possible to open a CS4 .indd file in CS3 at all.
    You can open a .inx file exported from CS4, but text will probably flow a little differently and any unsupported new features that were used in the file will be lost. Your CS3 must be updated to the last patch.

  • How can I remove the first exchange server 2010 without any problems in DC

    Hi,
    our actually exchange is running on windows server 2008R2 with exchange 2010. I already install & configured a second Exchange 2010 server in the same domain. I also moved every mailbox to the new server. Now I have to deactivate the first server and
    I don't know, if I have to do something or can I deactivate the "old" server without any issues.
    If I can deactivate it, how can I do this? Is it enough to uninstall exchange 2010 on the server and after that I uninstall the windows server? Did I have to change something before?
    Thanks,
    Mesut Uygun
    btw. sorry for my bad english

    Hi MesutU,
    When you remove first Exchange Server 2010 in your organization, please confirm finish following steps:
    1. Move all mailboxes (including discovery and arbitration) to another server
    2. Move all Public Folder replicas
    3. Move OAB generation server
    4. Update SMTP flow from internet
    5. Update OWA/IMAP/POP/OA access from internet.
    6. Update any routing group connectors if 2003 is present
    7. Turn the old server offline for some days to check whether the new server works well.

  • Opening Indesign CS2 files In CS4

    Hi everyone,
    I have just started using Indesign CS4 for work but found that it is mostly a waste of time as most clients send me documents made with older versions of Indesign which i just cant open with CS4. Is there anyway around this using the standard software or are then any plugin's that will do the job for me?
    Thanks in advance,
    Loki

    Hmm...very odd. I simply get the old "this
    file is not compatible" error come up when ever i try to open CS2. CS3 seems ok but not tried anythng older yet. I thought it seemed a little weird not opening, I guess that who ever was doing the job before me just screwed it up some how. :/   guess i have a few hours of system cleaning tomorrow ahead of me, if anyone can think of anything they could have done to stop it working i would be greatful for the advice if nto ill just try a re-install.
    No worrys about the clients not being able to reopen the file Ill be sending it strait to the presses once finished.

  • Can't open my .psd file using CS4 windows XP & Mac OSX

    I am using photoshop CS4 on windows XP I cannot open my file. the message reads: Could not complete your request because the version is not compatible with this version of photoshop.
    I did open the file on my mac OSX CS4 as well to try to use some of the fonts installed there. Now the file will not open on either platform. Are there known issues with crossing platforms? I believe the files were always universal before?

    There is normally no problem.
    You failed to mention what format the file had.
    If fonts are missing, it should still open with an error message about the font.

  • I can't open an .ai file in Illustrator without a dialog box appearing "Open PDF."  I have no idea what I can't open it as an Illustrator file (and not a PDF)

    Once I open a page as a PDF, all my layer info is lost.  I've tried opening it on two machines and the dialog box continues to appear.  Again, it's not a PDF extension. 
    Thanks for the help!

    Since you're sure you saved it back to CS5, the issue might have been caused by saving directly to the server. Illustrator does not particularly like that.
    90% of corrupt files are caused by saving directly to the server.
    You might try and first copy the file to your harddisk and then open it from there. Opening files directly from the server is an issue as well.
