Can photoshop CS5.5 work on a 32 bit processor or does it need 64 bit. It keeps crashing on 32 bit.

My photoshop CS 5.5 keeps crashing all the time. Can photoshop CS5.5 work on a 32 bit processor or does it need 64 bit. I am running it on 32 bit. Could this be the problem?

Hi, thanks for that. I just had a live chat with adobe and they sent me
through the system specs for CS5.5 and it said a 64 bit processor, nothing
about 32 bit, but I have no doubt you are correct because I do think I may
have read that somewhere else myself. I am not computer savvy so am loathe
to uninstall etc. Am looking to update my computer and getting CS6 so
hoping that will sort the problem out. Do you know much about plugs in? I
do have a few plug ins such as topaz adjust, nik silver efex, imagenomic and
one one perfect photo suite 7. It has been suggested to me that I uninstall
them all but again not too good at that sort of thing.
Thanks for replying to my query. I appreciate it.

I get an error message saying 'An error has caused Photoshop to stop working correctly. Windows will close the programme and notify you if a solution is available'. I have had no notification. My old Photoshop CS5 works fine, but as I'm paying for CC2014

I get an error message saying 'An error has caused Photoshop to stop working correctly. Windows will close the programme and notify you if a solution is available'. I have had no notification. My old Photoshop CS5 works fine, but as I'm paying for CC2014 I would like to use it. I have tried renaming the 'sniffer' file to 'snifferold' as bobmiller4002 suggested but the problem is not resolved. Lightroom works fine.

Hi Nancy,
             I'm not sure I have the answers to all your questions. Although I use Photoshop and Lightroom extensively, I'm not a 'techy'.
My system;
Packard bell imedia S2885
1TB hard drive
500G RAM
Windows 8.1   64- bit
Intel core i5 4440
If I open Photoshop cc14 without opening any image, I still get an error message that reads: 'Photoshop has encountered a problem with the display driver, and has temporarily disabled enhancements which use the graphics hardware'.
There is also a link to the Adobe help site, but I'm not sure exactly what I should be downloading from there.
         Thanks,
                    Dan.

Will photoshop CS5 work with Lion

I need to get a new photoshop, mine is out of date. Will Photoshop CS5 work with OS 10.7.2? Adobe doesn't include 10.7.2 in their tech specs.

I have it and it runs fine on Lion.

Will a Serial Number for Photoshop CS5 Work for CS5 Extended?

Hello,
I've recently subscribed to Photoshop CS5 and Dreamweaver CS5.5. In my Order History, it says 'Photoshop CS5', not 'Photoshop CS5 Extended'. However the download links in my Order History does not work (yes, I do have Adobe Download Assistant--in fact, I used it to download Dreamweaver CS5.5 without any problems).
So, I decided to download the trial version instead and enter my serial number that way. However, the problem is that I see Photoshop CS5 on Adobe's Products page, yet when I click on it, it leads me to Photoshop CS5 Extended.
I don't want to waste my time downloading CS5 Extended, only to find out that my serial number for CS5 does not work on it. So my question is: Will a Serial Number for Photoshop CS5 work for Photoshop CS5 Extended?
Thank you for your time!
-Mari

Resolved!
For anyone else having the same problem: I contacted Adobe via phone, and they said that a serial number for Photoshop CS5 will work with Photoshop CS5 Extended.

Can an installer work on either xp or win7 or do I need two installers?

can an installer work on either xp or win7 or do I need to create 2 installers?

Yes, you can create an installer that will run on either XP or Win7. Does your application use any config or .ini files? If so, you will need to pay close attention to a couple of details to make sure you don't run into any security issues.

Can I make Photoshop CS5 work with a 6 year old onboard GPU?

Recently, my graphics card stopped working, so I've been forced to use an onboard GPU until I can get the money to buy a new one. The problem though, is that the onboard GPU is VERY old (approximately 6 or so years), and every time I try to save something in photoshop CS5, the program crashes without even giving me an error message. Is there some way I can change the settings in CS5 to make it work? The GPU options in the preferences tab is already grayed out and has OpenGL automatically disabled, but I'm still having problems.

That's probably utterly unrelated to Photoshop. In so many words: The driver from your dedicated graphics card has left remnants and configuration information and Windows itself is trying to use it when drawing fiel dialogs etc.. Short of reinstalling the operating system from scratch it's probably nothing that can be fixed fully, but feel free to check your device manager and registry for that info. Though, really, in that 5 hours it would take you could just as well do that OS reinstall...

Can Photoshop CS5.1 open files created/saved in CS6?

I work in a collaborative environment. I've upgraded to CS6, but those i work with are working in photoshop cs5.1. Will they have problems opening files i create or save in CS6?

I don't know that I can offer a better long answer, nor do I know of any published list of things you can save in a Photoshop CS6 document that won't open properly in an earlier version. I have tried a few things myself, like creating shapes, text, etc. and found that Photoshop CS5 sees them all just fine. But it's not hard to think of things that wouldn't work, such as putting a brand new filter as a smart filter in a document.
Just using the cool new features would not necessarily net you incompatibility. For example, doing a Content Aware Move or one of the new blurs just manipulate pixels, and at the end of the day the layer will just have pixels on it, which every version of Photoshop has known about all along.
Things like recording brush strokes in an action and trying to run the action on an earlier Photoshop would yield incompatibility, because older versions wouldn't know how to play such brush strokes back.
There is a "Maximize PSD and PSB File Compatibility" setting in the File Handling preferences, and the implication is that others will always be at the very least able to open a flattened version of the document, but I'm not sure that covers every case of individual incompatibility between recent versions of Photoshop. I've never had occasion to test it out thoroughly.
Maybe one of the Adobe people can speak to this in more detail.
Do you still have a copy of Photoshop CS5 installed? If so, and you're not sure about whether your PSD file is going to be compatible, you could of course try it yourself to be sure.

Can Photoshop CS5 save as previous version?

I never get any option to select a previous version when I do Save As... in Photoshop CS5. How can I do it? Is it just not able?

There is no "previous version" to save as.
Just save as PSD, and it's compatible back to Photoshop 3.0.

Will Photoshop CS5 work with Adobe CS 4 Design Premium Suite?

I have been debating to upgrade just the Photoshop to CS5 from my CS4 Design Premium Suite. I still need training and skill development time with the other software in the suite, but feel pretty good with photoshop CS4 to upgrade to CS5. Will everything still work together or do I need to upgrade the whole suite? Thanks

The two applications will work together fine, but…
You CANNOT upgrade to a single, stand-alone application from a suite license under the terms of the EULA, which was clear when you bought the suite. When you bought the suite, you commited to upgrading the whole suite forever.
So, unless you have a license for a full version of stand-alone Photoshop that has never been used to upgrade to anything, you are stuck with the suite.
I've never bought the suite and use very different versions of Photoshop, Illustrator, Acrobat and InDesign with no problem.

Does photoshop cs5 work with mavericks?

Hi all
I have 2 iMacs with photoshop cs5 installed on one. I have upgraded to mavericks on my non-photoshop machine - which was more of a bumpy ride than I had expected.
Now I wonder whether I should upgrade my photoshop iMac which is currently running os x 10.8.5. Have anyone tried running photoshop cs5 under mavericks - and if so how did it go?
Kind regards
Jack Jorgensen

Since when I installed Mavericks my Photoshop CS5 - without warning - becomes all of a sudden unable to display the pull-down menus: they appear but are are solid white. That is, I lose completely control of Photoshop, and of all teh changes I made to a picture in the meantime. I does maintain a connection with the keyboard, but all the windows that may result from a keyboard command are also white. Flying blind, looks like.
It never happened to me before, and it started happening after I installed Mavericks (and I checked online whether PS CS5 was ok with it before installing it, of course .... sure .... ).

HT1926 I am trying to install iTunes on a windows 7/64 OS. The 32 bit version said that I need the 64bit version. the 64 bit version says that it is not a valid 32 bit installation. How can I fix this??

I am trying to install iTunes on a windows 7/64 OS. the 32 bit version said that I needed the 64 bit version. The 64 bit version syas that it is not a valid Win32 application. How do I get around this problem??

For general advice see Troubleshooting issues with iTunes for Windows updates.
The steps in the second box are a guide to removing everything related to iTunes and then rebuilding it which is often a good starting point unless the symptoms indicate a more specific approach. Review the other boxes and the list of support documents further down page in case one of them applies.
Your library should be unaffected by these steps but there is backup and recovery advice elsewhere in the user tip.
