CS2 InDesign and Windows 7 x64

Today I installed a copy of CS2 on a CAD Capable workstation (High powered), Windows 7 Professional 64 bit. (I know it's an old CS version)
Can anyone tell me if the OS and CS versions are compatible? I am getting an appropriate permissions error after install (As domain admin) when I go to run InDesign. I can run Photoshop and Illustrator, but not InDesign.
Any suggestions?
I have looked for any updates, but found none.

Completely unsupported and total crapshoot.
You can try Peter’s method but my experience with XP Mode was a disaster.
Time to move on.

Font management with InDesign and Windows 7

Hello
I am presently looking to upgrade to Windows 7 and use InDesign CS4. I have had a play with installing postscript type 1 fonts using the windows font manager and it seems absoloutley average, but it worked (I think). I was wondering if you had any suggestions of what would be best practice in this setup.
Thanks for your time

Thanks for that. I spoke to the team using indesign and they would love to move to Extensis Suitcase but they had experienced problems with MathMagic pro. I am going to test this out and hopefully resolve it but I wondered if you had any knowledge of compatibility issues?
Thanks again

TSP and Windows X64

I have a CCM in version 4.0 and TSP version was 4.0(0.2203).
I try to install the CISCO TSP in Windows X64 but it is doesn't works.
In the Advanced tab, I can't see any "Cisco IOS Telephony Service provider". All works perfectly in other windows version.
Witch TSP version was compatibly with Windows X64??
Thanks for your help
Regards
Sebastien

As of now TSP is not compatible with Win xp 64 bit because TSP drivers are not yet available.Drivers for all the other versions are available.

InDesign and Windows 7 on laptop

Hello all. I have Indesign CS5. It is installed on both my desktop and my laptop, of which both have the Windows 7 Professional OS.
Problem: The workspace panels do not function on the laptop. I can close the panels and open them but I cannot click on a specific page or master. I cannot choose a swatch. I cannot select a stroke value, etc etc. If I draw a rectangle on a blank document, I cannot use the tool panel and select the pointer tool, I have to use keyboard shortcut "v." And even after doing such and clicking on the rectangle I cannot assign it a color from the swatch panel or anything. Basically Indesign is a worthless application on my laptop and I NEED it.
Attempted solutions include: use a mouse instead of finger pad, use a different mouse, reinstall Indesign, uninstall and reinstall Indesign, uninstall and reinstall the entire CS5 Design Premium Suite.
All other programs appear to work fine: Bridge, Photoshop, etc.
Any ideas on how to resolve this? Thanks in advance!

Yes, I saw ther link.
Well good gravy! I could NOT find that through my searches. Thank you so much! (now I need to buy some reading glasses :sigh: )

For anything beyond that you will have to better explain what "will not work" is supposed to mean. There is no point in generic and vague statements.

Nano and windows x64

Hi,
I've just got my computer up and running after getting a replacement motherboard. During the time I didn't have my computer I purchased a Nano which I used on the family computer with no problems (running windows xp). When I plugged my Nano into my computer windows and itunes doesn't recognize it and I think its the sign for an empty battery shows up on the screen of the Nano when it is connected. I'm already running version 5.0.1 of itunes, which I was told on another forum would fix my problem, but it hasn't
Any help would be greatly appreciated.

You'll probably need to go to Microsoft and Apple to seek support for the iPod (of any type) on Windows XP x64 Edition... and I don't think you'll have much luck.
I personally decided against XP x64 because I saw this kind of thing coming... In my opinion XP x64 is no more than a Windows ME... for M$ to make a few bucks on and offer limited support to those that will unknowingly help them develop Longhorn/Vista. There are not enough significant improvements to move me from XP 32-bit considering some of my peripherals would no longer function and the mfg's indicated they were not going to produce drivers unless there was a huge demand... there has not been.

IPod and Windows x64 Professional?

Ok, This is the day i have waited for. Windows XP 64bit edition. I tried my new iPod and it could not read it for the life of me. So i reinstalled the old windows xp w/service pack 2 and all is well. Does iPod not work for windows xp 64bit edition?

Just wouldn't read the iPod at all. In iTunes or in My Computer.
hmmmm. okay, haven't heard this reported as a problem for 64-bit, but i don't think i've seen a case of someone using it with an ipod video before.
just checking ... have you seen this document yet?

Cs2 premium - Middle Eastern version- InDesign and reverse hebrew - windows vista

i have cs2 and after installing the package, i have a very strange problem
in indesign, when i want to write text in hebrew, i get the word reversed, so for example(in english now) if i write in hebrew: moshe, i get ehsom (reversed word)
the example is in english, but the english is fine. i did it in english so you will understand what i get in hebrew.
CS2 is installed on windows Vista
also i installed illustrator(part of the CS2 package) and there, there is no problem at all!.
the hebrew works great.
no reversed words.
i dont know what to do and how to solve this problem.
i tried to uninstall CS2, and then reinstalling it again, but the problem stays.
how can i fix this problem?
thanks for your help!

i dont have an option to chose between RTL or LTR languages.
That's the whole point of the ME editions
I stole this screenshot from Winsoft's site:
So, at least in CS3, that's where the paragraph-direction button is; it's on the Paragraph palette, which you can find in CS2 by going to Window -> Type -> Paragraph (if you don't know exactly where it is already). I think it's in the same place in CS2 but it's been a looooooong time since I've looked at CS2ME.

CS1 and CS2 InDesign file type problems and Tiger

Dual 2.7GHrz G5, 2GB RAM, OSX 10.4.5
Previously, InDesign 3 (CS1 version) was installed on this Mac. I needed to install the full CS2 package. Everything installed just fine. The problem I am having is the file type associations. The Mac now sees CS1 InDesign files as Indesign CS2 files. I got info on a file I knew to have been created and saved in InDesign CS1. I changed the "open with:" to InDesign CS and it worked until I hit "Change all". It then reverts back to a CS2 file type. On other sites I found some different things to try like rebuilding or deleting the LaunchServices pref files, checking to see if their was a CFBundleIdentifier, etc. Anyway, what I seem to have found is that Tiger gets confused when the Type and Creator are the same in the info.plist files. Panther, however, does not seem to have this same problem. We have 10+ other G5's of similar hardware specs as the one listed above, running Panther 10.3.9, have CS1 and CS2 installed, and we are not having the same file type problems.
As a test, I modified the CFBundleIdentifier to be different than the one found in the CS1 info.plist, and it let me "change all" the CS1 files to CS1. Of course, CS2 files could not be associated with CS2 now.
Is there a fix for this? Or, is there a patch being worked on that will fix this problem? We really need to keep both versions of the software installed, and I don't want to have to rely on users making the decision about what version they are working in.
Tom

If Get Info shows both app versions (& it should) as "Open with:" choices, you can at least still set individual docs to open with the preferred version. Instead of having to open Get Info windows, you can do the same thing a bit more easily with the contextual menu that pops up when you right (or CMD) click & hold on a Finder document icon.
Normally, the "Open with >" choice in this menu is a one time thing, but if you hold down the option key, it changes to "Always Open With >" & makes the new app choice permanent as it opens the doc, all in one step.

ITunes 11.2.2 for Windows x64 will not successfully install. Removed prior iTunes, and still will not install. 10.7 installs just fine, but constantly asks to upgrade to 11.2.2. Any Thoughts?

iTunes 11.2.2 for Windows x64 will not successfully install. Removed prior iTunes, and still will not install. 10.7 installs just fine, but constantly asks to upgrade to 11.2.2. Any Thoughts?

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.
The section Install missing components has advice on breaking down the iTunes installer into the individual .msi files which might prove useful if one component won't install normally.
If needs be, the Microsoft Program Install and Uninstall Utility (MS Installer "Fixit") may be able to help force through the installation.

I am trying to install cs2 on a windows pc running 8.1 and it keeps giving a file error message asking me to re install and shuts down

question
help I am trying to install a cs2 on a windows pc running 8.1 it gives me a missing file message and asks me to re install them shuts down the program?

CS2 was not built to run on modern operating systems. It's too old & no longer supported.
That said, see these links:

My solution for No Audio -- Conexant drivers and Windows 7 x64

My son and I have the L2000 laptop that came with 32 bit XP and used the Conexant chipset for Audio. I had been using an SB Audigy PCMCIA card so I am not sure when Audio was really lost; however, he noticed it when I upgraded his PC. I scoured various forums looking for 64 bit Windows 7 drivers for Conexant audio but to no avail. Microsoft and Conexant both said that HP should supply the drivers. By the way HP, the Conexant website says that they do not supply drivers even though they make the chipsets "at the request of the OEM's." Another post said that HP was not going to supply these drivers for Windows 7. The solution from HP for my model and Windows 7 was the "HP Software Advisor" which was 67MB and totaly useless. It appears that this is a very common problem. Anyway, here is what you do:
First you need 2 files which ironically enough come from HP, they are SP35558.exe and SP35558.cva They contain the Conexant drivers for Vista x64. (I subsequently have found the 32 bit drivers and the procedure should be very similar except the files are SP34789.exe and SP34789.cva). Type the following into your browser address bar ftp://ftp.hp.com/pub/softpaq/ About half way down you will find the sub-directory with these files. Just right click each one and save to your desktop.
Double click SP35558.cva and tell Windows to use Notepad to open it. Scroll about half way down to "[Operating Systems]" and after "WV64UL=OEM" insert:
W764HB=OEM
W764HP=OEM
W764PR=OEM
W764UL=OEM
( For 32 bit systems use W732HB=OEM, etc.)
I next went up about 10 lines to "[System information]" and added
SysId3=0x3091
SysName3=HP Pavilion ze2000 series
SysId4=0x3096
SysName4=Compaq presario M2000 series
SysId5=0x3097
SysName5=Compaq Presario M2000 series
SysId6=0x3097

SysId7=0x3093
SysName7=Compaq Presario M2000 series
SysId8=0x3093
SysName8=HP Special Edition L2000 series
I got this information from another cva file on my PC at C;/swsetup/ This is the directory where HP updates default to.
After modding the cva file, I saved it to C;/swsetup/sp35558/
I then executed the SP35558.exe file. It did not work the first time -- I missed a line in my cva file. However, I then manually installed the Conexant drivers as follows and voila I had sound, nice crisp clear sound.
Under Device Manager, right click "Multimedia Audio Device" under "Other" and choose "Update Driver" Then" Browse your PC" and "Choose from a list". Select "Sound, audio and game controllers", then Conexant, then "Have Disk" . Browse to C:/swsetup/sp35558/ and open "cp6308Ba.inf" (64bit remember). Now choose "OK" and ignore any warnings about incompatibility, WHQL, etc. Give it plenty of time, you might think you are in a loop, but you are not. Congratulations, you are done.

I thought that I would recompile my answer and then mark this thread as solved since it was not a post about a problem but rather how I solved a very common problem that might be of benefit to others.

The use of the cva file is to streamline the driver install and it is kind of cool if it works. If you cannot find it or you are not successful the first time or you do not want to bother with modding anything, do not worry, the manual install will work for sure.
Run sp35558.exe to extract everything and let it strike out. Then go to Device Manager and update the driver manually as follows:
Under Device Manager, right click "Multimedia Audio Device" under "Other" and choose "Update Driver" Then "Browse your PC" and "Choose from a list". Select "Sound, audio and game controllers", then "Conexant", then "Have Disk". Browse to C:/swsetup/sp35558/ and open "cp6308Ba.inf" (64bit remember).

I am trying to use the trial creative cloud software on a PC windows 8.1 - I've downloaded and removed Photoshop CC 2014 two times - every time I open the file it says there is a problem and it shuts down and closes. I can open indesign and maybe other apps but photoshop no. Any ideas?

I don't think I can access the crash report? Excuse the ignorant questions I'm about to make am a relative tech novice.
Soo - as mentioned every time I open photoshop it crashes - it just says there's an error and the program will shut down and if there's a solution windows will notify me. Then nothing...
I've tried to look in photoshop files for the detailed crash report & the system event viewer but cannot find a file with those names. I've also looked in the windows files for files with those names but cannot find them either - so I don't know where to look.
Any guidance would be great.

ITunes and Windows 7 (or Vista) x64

Hey there,
the current state with syncing my iPod under Windows Vista x64 and Windows 7 (RC) x64 is horrible. iTunes locks itself up for several minutes, syncing large Music libraries takes hours - and might break halfway through the progress. It's a shame that I have to experience such lacky behaviour from Apple Products.
Having ordered an iPhone 3Gs, I wonder if I'll experience the same trouble with it.
Will Apple make it to provide a working sync solution for Windows 7 x64?
Windows 7 is no longer pre release, so it's time to take some action. You should've downloaded the RTM copy of Windows 7 x64 already, MobileDeviceDriver Team.
Pretty Disappointed

Failed while scanning for CD / DVD drives, error 2380.
Error while opening iTunes CD driver. This could be caused by a corrupted iTunes file or a conflict with other older CD burning applications, either currently installed or previously installed and uninstalled incorrectly.
what typically works with the 2380s on 64-bit OSs (it hits XP too) is reinstalling the 64-bit version of the GEAR drivers that iTunes uses for burning and importing.
the GEAR drivers are available from the following page. note that there are two different versions of the 64-bit driver, so be sure to get the one that matches your hardware:
