Cannot reinstall GL CS2 from Suite

G5 dual 2.7 with 10.5.3
GL is acting up. Trashing prefs does not help. Need to try reinstall.
GL is part of my CS2 Suite install disks. Have complete CS 3 Suite installed.
Only want to install GL, but all programs are grayed out with no checkbox checked except for PS with ImageReady and Version Cue. I can check or uncheck these. Cannot select any of the core products, as a group or individually. It's not an upgrade set.
Any ideas?

If you cannot get support from Adobe on it, and you own the copy you have, then install it on another harddrive with a system, then copy the relevent files from the other drive to the one you use. Make sure to include all files that are needed to run the programs that are scattered about. That will work if you have time and find all the files. Don't ask me which ones, it has been a while since I looked for them. If you put the install on a fresh drive it is easier to find them.

  • Reinstall of cs2 from downloaded files

    reinstall of cs2 from download worked but illustrator wont launch, other programs working fine

    I have a similar problem. I reinstalled CS2 but for the time being just chose to install Illustrator from the package. That was successful up until the point that I tried to launch or open the program. I get the following pop-up box every time:
    Microsoft Visual C++ Runtime Library
    Runtime Error!
    Program:...rator CS2\Support Files\Contents\Windows\Illustrator.exe
    This application has requested the Runtime to terminate it in an unusual way. Please contact the application's support team for more information.
    Windows also says:
    The color scheme has been changed.
    The following program has performed an action that requires Windows to temporarily
    change the color scheme to Windows Vista Basic.
    Program: Adobe Illustrator
    Publisher: Adobe Systems, Inc.
    Process identifier (PID): 4064
    Windows will automatically change the color scheme back to
    Windows Vista Aero when this program or other programs performing similar
    actions are no longer running.
    Please decode. Will it be impossible for me to get it up and running? I need to work with it for a class that has already started.
    If I have to buy a new cs suite (or just the illustrator as I only need that for now), what is the best package for a student?

    You don't need to have Lightroom 3 and 4 installed on your computer to install Lightroom 5.  Just install Lightroom 5 and input your serial number for 3 in the previous version box and your serial number for 5 in the upgrade box.

  • Unable to reinstall Photoshop CS2 from Creative Suite

    I had to uninstall Creative Suite CS2 because I wanted to try CS5.  Come  to find out after a lot of frustration unable to do because I have a  G5  that does not have an intell processor.  When I tried to reload the  Creative Suite CS2 the Photoshop was grayed out.  Unable to click onto  it to install.  Any suggestions?  I am a web and graphic desighner with  no photoshop! UGH!  Please respond.  Thank you

    If you find no other option, try cleaning up your machine and then run the installer again. Following kb will help you to cleanup your machine manually -
    http://kb2.adobe.com/cps/331/331301.html
    Or if you are able to run CS5 cleaner tool and you have *NO* other Creative Suite product installed. Click 'Clean all' button for CS3/CS4 and CS5. You can download the cleaner tool from the following location -

    Also empty your trash before running the CS2 installer.

  • I cannot reinstall an app from the mac app store

    I've purchased, downloaded, and installed an app named Magic Number on my MBP. However, apparently something went wrong when downloading it to my iMac, because the app simply is not present on the system - it isn't in /Applications, it isn't in Launchpad, and it isn't anywhere on the file system according to find(1). When I go to the purchased tab in the App Store.app, the application shows up there as installed, but there is no way for me to reinstall it - I can't even delete it from my system because it isn't on my system.  How can I tell the App Store to redownload and reinstall this app?
    Please note that I am using the appropriate Apple Store id.

    Figured it out.
    Apparently, the Mac App Store can see the app if it is installed on an external drive. I have a backup drive attached to my iMac that also contains backups for my MBP - the MAS was seeing the app on the MBP backup partititon, and assuming that I had it installed.  Oy.  Thanks for trying to help...

  • Cannot Reinstall Photoshop CS2 Upgrade

    I am migrating to a new Win7 computer. I have a Photoshop CS2 upgrade CD, but the installer wants to find an older version on the hard drive. I no longer have older versions (stretching back to 3.0). I had to replace a bad hard drive last year and was able to pull this off then, but I can't recall how.
    Any ideas?

    If you go to the Adobe.com website and log into the your account you will find all the serial numbers for your registered products.

  • I have the disks from my initial installation of elements 10. My computer crashed and I cannot reinstall elements on the new one. What's wrong?

    I cannot reinstall elements 10 from the disks I have. My original computer crashed. I would like to retrieve the work that I have in elements and continue. What can I do?@

    hi rick,
    don't forget that, in fact, your photos were not "contained" in photoshop, but on the hard disk of your ( now crashed ? ) computer. Tell us something about that crashed machine: do you still have it , did someone try to retrieve some info out of it, what was the diagnostic of repairmen, etc...Did you have a backup of these photos ?

  • How can I install the Dreamweaver 8 from my CS2 Creative suite?

    When I originally installed my Adobe programs for CS2 about 5 years ago, I did not at that time install the dreamweaver from the CD. Now I'm trying to download it, but it will not accept the serial number from the suite (Dreamweaver 8 was still from Macromedia back then, but was part of the Suite) so I am unable to activate the program.I'm using  hp pavillion a 1430n w Windows XP-Media Center edition. My Serial number is a series of 6 four digit numbers. The activation site will not accept nearly that many numbers, nor does it accept them in four digit combinations. Any suggestions ?

    If the serial number from the CS2 Premium suite is not working with the install, there is not much you can do at this point.  You can try to uninstall the whole suite and this time install all of the applications at once.  But you then risk the other applications.
    Your only other option is to pay the upgrade from CS2 to CS4.  Adobe, unlike Macromedia, does not restrict educational users from upgrading.  All they ask is that you pay the full retail upgrade price and they will allow you to have your license converted from a student license to a commercial license that will allow you to keep upgrading.  Or if you are still a student, you can opt to buy the new student release.
    Based on what I was able to look up online about your system, it meets the requirements for CS4 as long as you have upgraded to SP2/3 of XP. 

  • I had to erase my hard drive and then reinstall everything back from my passport external hard drive. Now my iPhoto edit is not working. I get a blank screen when I want to edit. The photos show up in the library but I cannot edit them. Help?

    I had to erase my hard drive and then reinstall everything back from my passport external hard drive. Now my iPhoto edit is not working. I get a blank screen when I want to edit. The photos show up in the library but I cannot edit them. Help?

    There are several possible causes for the Black Screen issue
    *1. Permissions in the Library* : Back Up and try rebuild the library: hold down the command and option (or alt) keys while launching iPhoto. Use the resulting dialogue to rebuild. Include the option to check and repair permissions.
    *2. Minor Database corruption*: Back Up and try rebuild the library: hold down the command and option (or alt) keys while launching iPhoto. Use the resulting dialogue to rebuild.
    *3. A Damaged Photo*: Select one of the affected photos in the iPhoto Window and right click on it. From the resulting menu select 'Show File (or 'Show Original File' if that's available). Will the file open in Preview? If not then the file is damaged. Time to restore from your back up.
    *4. A corrupted iPhoto Cache*: Trash the com.apple.iPhoto folder from HD/Users/Your Name/Library/ Caches...
    *5. A corrupted preference file*: Trash the com.apple.iPhoto.plist file from the HD/Users/ Your Name / library / preferences folder. (Remember you'll need to reset your User options afterwards. These include minor settings like the window colour and so on. Note: If you've moved your library you'll need to point iPhoto at it again.)
    If none of these help:
    As a Test:
    Hold down the option (or alt) key key and launch iPhoto. From the resulting menu select 'Create Library'
    Import a few pics into this new, blank library. Is the Problem repeated there?
    Regards

  • I have Cs2 andOffice for Mac 2004 installed on an Os 10.6.3 system. This weekend my computer did an auto pdate to Os 10.6.8 and now I cannot save or print from any office or CS2 Apps. What happened. Office also freezes and I have to force quit.

    I had Cs2 and Office for Mac 2004 installed on an OS 10.6.3 system. Worked fine. This weekend my computer did an auto update to OS 10.6.8 and now I cannot save or print from any office or CS2 Apps. What happened. Office also freezes and I have to force quit. Any advise. System or Software problem?

    Bad timing.  Reapply the security update:

    What happened is that version 1.0 of the security update was available for a bit of time this weekend, and that disabled Rosetta.  Version 1.1 brought it back.

  • App hung on "waiting"; during update, I lost my wifi connection; now cannot delete to reinstall (no X), syc does not help; itunes store says it is installed and I cannot reinstall; deleting from itunes and synching does not remove "hung app"; HELP

    App hung on "waiting"; during update, I lost my wifi connection and the app hung; now cannot delete to reinstall (no X), synching does not help; itunes app store says it is installed, therefore I cannot reinstall; deleting the app from itunes and synching does not reinstall the app on the ipod; the app developers have not helped and told me to check with Apple (which I am doing, since I am past my 90 day tech support). Hoping someone can help with this hung "waiting' app problem.

    - First try resetting the iPod:
    Reset iPod touch:  Press and hold the On/Off Sleep/Wake button and the Home
    button at the same time for at least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears.
    - Next download the app on the computer and try to sync.
    - Last, restore from backup.

    I'm no Lion expert, but I believe you can boot from the Recovery partition by pressing the Command and R keys on startup, then reinstall.

    Hi,
    Could be many things, we should start with this...
    "Try Disk Utility
    1. Insert the Mac OS X Install disc, then restart the computer while holding the C key.
    2. When your computer finishes starting up from the disc, choose Disk Utility from the Installer menu at top of the screen. (In Mac OS X 10.4 or later, you must select your language first.)
    *Important: Do not click Continue in the first screen of the Installer. If you do, you must restart from the disc again to access Disk Utility.*
    3. Click the First Aid tab.
    4. Select your Mac OS X volume.
    5. Click Repair Disk, (not Repair Permissions). Disk Utility checks and repairs the disk."
    http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=106214
    Then try a Safe Boot, (holding Shift key down at bootup), run Disk Utility in Applications>Utilities, then highlight your drive, click on Repair Permissions, reboot when it completes.
    (Safe boot may stay on the gray radian for a long time, let it go, it's trying to repair the Hard Drive.)
    If perchance you can't find your install Disc, at least try it from the Safe Boot part onward.
    Open Console in Applications>Utilities & see if there are any clues or repeating messages when trying to open CS2.
