Can Photoshop 5.0 LE be installed with Windows 7?

On our previous computer with Vista, Photoshop 5.0 would install with no problems, but it's not compatible with Windows 7. I've googled for solutions, but none of them were successful. Has anyone been able to do this? I've been using Artweaver, but it's not quite the same.

I'm a little late to this party, but I just tried to install 5.0LE on a windows machine as well, and after countless attempts at things suggested by numerous sources (including Microsoft's Virtual PC, which won't install cleanly), I can say that yes, you absolutely CAN run 5.0LE on Windows 7... well, on Windows 7 Enterprise, at least. I haven't tried other versions yet.
Here's what I did:
Running the installer in compatibility mode wouldn't work for me. However, if you go to the Start Menu, type "windows update" in the search box (do not hit enter), I got an option for "Run programs made for previous versions of windows" under control panel. I chose this, and it brought up a new window for program compatibility. Choose next, and it will search for programs it can run. It won't find 5.0LE as it isn't installed. Choose "not listed" at the top of the list and then next. At the next window, choose "browse", then browse to your installation disc. Go into the Photoshop LE directory and choose the setup file. Then click open and the installer should kick in.
Worked beautifully for me. Perhaps trying to run compatibility mode on the setup.exe file would work as well, but it certainly didn't work on the installer package on the disk.
In any case, though, it does work for me - all the functionality is there....

Can Adobe Photoshop Elements 5.0 be used with Windows 8?

Hi,
As far as i can tell pse 5 does work on windows 8, but after installing you need to apply the 5.02 update.

The workaround for this problem is to revert to IE9 or earlier, install your old PSE, then reinstall the latest IE version.

It is not compatible with Windows 7. Advice could include telling you to purchase the latest version. The other option would be to buy an old computer that is capable of running it.

You can direct download and install the updates here: Adobe - Photoshop : For Windows
The updater for CS5 is well...outdated.

Impossoble installe Photoshop 5.0 on new PC with Windows 8.1

Impossible install Photoshop 5.0 on new PC with Windows 8.1 - What can I do ?

if that's really ps 5 you might be able to use compatibility mode to install but that's a long shot because i don't think there's a compatible os option.
better would be to upgrade to ps cc. the most economical option is a special $9.99/mo photography program, http://www.adobe.com/products/photoshop/buying-guide.html

2011 MacBook Pro, 64 bit i7 quad core, upgraded to Lion OSx, Bootcamp installed with Windows 7, wanting to install Windows 8 (don't ask), tried downloading/installing bootcamp 5.0.5033 (both on the mac/windows partitions (actually using a parallel to run Windows)), error message something similar to bootcamp doesn't support this Windows
So the question is am I doing something wrong? Should I just try and install windows 8 through my windows 7 partition and see if I can use the bootcamp 5.05033. Or do I solely have to use the bootcamp to install Windows 8? I'm not too familiar with bootcamp and how it runs.

if you're using parallels and full bootcamp then you're making it 100% more troublesome for youself then it needs to be
bootcamp is running windows directly on the hardware this give full memory and cpu and 3d video game power
running windows in parallels is running a virtual machine where one can't run powerful games and the like but one can have it in a window and change fast between osx and windows
parallels as the only virutal machine (as far as I know) support not have the operating system as a file on the osx harddisk but can access a bootcamp parition as virtual machine but without the benefits bootcamps provides
it's a service parallels provide for those who want both to play games in normal bootcamp and sometimes use windows in a virutal machine
just install it like a normal virtual machine and you need not worry about bootcamp drivers and the likes
plus it would mean that the windows part would be a part of the timemachine bacup of osx
which it is not when it's in bootcamp

To fix your issue is too complicated and lengthy to go into all of it here, it will require the services of person very familiar and experienced with Mac's to first recover your data and then restore OS X back to a functional state, then hopefully achieve the goals you were attempting.
I advise you hire the services of a local Mac computer support technician experienced in these matters.
Have them look at your Wifi and computer backup proceedures in the process.
Good Luck.

You can get the software from your printer's website:

Select your exact model, put in your Operating System...
You are looking for the Product Installation Software -- the Full Feature Software for your OS
Download the package, it may be large..
Then install it... Reboot your computer after the installation.
That may do it!

IMNSHO, always go with a 64 bit OS. With Win 7 32 you will probabaly be able to use all of your RAM, but if you add more RAM at some point you won't be able to use it without going to a 64 bit OS.
A 32 bit system can address 4G of address space but Windows tends to reserve the top 1G (more or less) for addressing installed (and future) peripheral devices and graphics card RAM. Any RAM above ~3G simply goes to wast.
Just my $.02. You asked...

Trying to download itunes onto PC installed with windows vista. Download keeps getting to 99% with 1 second remaining and then freezes / does nothing? Any help appreciated.

I solved the problem! The updates orignally were downloaded to the C: drive of the server. I've since moved them to the E: drive and for some reason the Content folder in IIS didn't change the file path to the new WSUScontent folder.
The root cause for this was failing to use the UTILITY designed for this very purpose.
I edited the virtual directory settings in IIS and was able to put the correct path in.
You still need to use the UTILITY.. to fix all the other stuff you're still missing.
In the %ProgramFiles%\Update Services\Tools folder...
WSUSUTIL MOVECONTENT E:\WSUS E:\WSUS\MoveContent.LOG -SKIPCOPY
This problem was caused by moving the WSUS updates to a different local drive.
No. This problem was caused by IMPROPERLY moving the WSUS updates to a different local drive.

Can not print PDF file at all with Windows Vista

I have Acrobat Reader 9.3.2. I am working off of Windows Vista on my laptop to a network wireless printer (Brother MFC 9440). I am unable to print pdf files. About a week ago, we had problems with our printer printing anything. I had to uninstall it and reinstalled it and it now works fine except the pdf files. I have had no problems printing any other files on any other programs but this one. I am unsure what specific "updates" I ran while trying to figure out printers issue. When in Reader, everything seems normal. When I hit print, the printer box pops up as normal and then I hit ok, my printer icon at bottom pops up for about 5 secs and nothing happens. I know that I am connected to printer due to all other programs can print. I do not have access to another printer to see if pdf will print on another printer, but do know that the other two computers used in this office (mac laptop and mac desktop) both are able to print pdf files to this printer without a problem. I have gone thru all the other help steps to try to resolve the situation: it still will not print when I hit "print as image", made sure that my printer is marked as network and is default printer, made sure to check that I have all upgrades, etc. I am not getting any error message, so am unsure what is wrong. It just will not print. Is there anyone that could give me some suggestions that I have not tried? I would REALLY appreciate it! Thanks!

Another user experience exactly the same issue with vista and printing from Adobe reader.
http://forums.adobe.com/thread/642000?tstart=1 Its copied below as a reference.
The problem was on my Auntys PC, and yes i did updated Adobe Reader to v9.3.2 and still the same issue underlned below.
My Aunty lives 70 miles away so will not be trying anything else.
The printer works fine with every other application only Adobe Reader files will print.
