CS4 closing issues

I have read a few topics on this however there has never been any form of real answer.
I have been looking at using Photoshop CS4 and downloaded the trail. All was going well and I liked it, then it starting closing itself down for no reason at all. No warning messages, nothing. I deleted the preference file and I managed to work with it for over an hour wihout problems. Closed it in the usual way and continued with someother work. Then I started PS again and the closing issue returned - so back to deleting the preference file and restart the app. This time the problem did no go away, so I am stuck with this closing issue.
I really want to buy CS4 so would welcome and suggestions. I am running XP SP3, 1.1Ghz with 1.5GB RAM. When it works it works well and fast too!
Cheers
Andrew

The minimum system requirements states at least a 1.8GHz processor. And that's likely problematic, or at least slow.

Dreamweaver CS4 strange issues happening

Suddenly when I do a find and replace and I do a carriage return in the replace portion of the find/replace window to make my edit go to an extra line, the carriage return occurs behind it on the page I'm editing. It doesn't add a <p> tag in the document, just kind of highlights what I have in the find window and each time I hit Enter the next instance of the what I'm trying to find gets highlighted.
Also, when I try to add <strong> tags to my document this appears on the page instead <strong>
What the hell?
I tried recreating my configuration folder (I'm on Windows Vista) but it still happens.
Any ideas??

Re :Re: Dreamweaver CS4 having issues after installing PS CS6 Beta
Just a thought ...
This may help!
Uninstall the Beta Version of Photoshop CS6 now and then restart your computer and see if that works.
Open the CS4 programs and see if that fixed the problem and it is all working as it should again.
It is worth a try!
All the best.

Dreamweaver CS4 having issues after installing PS CS6 Beta

Hi All,
I'm having issues with Dreamweaver CS4 after installing Photoshop CS6 Beta. I'm getting the follwing erros when trying to open any html file (see attached image).
Once I click OK, the file will open, also now; any copy and paste commands will not work. Anyone else experiencing any problems with other apps after installing this beta version?
Any help and feedback is much appreciated, thanks!

Premiere Pro CS4: Timecode issues (Scene Detect, Free Run)

Hi folks,
I am most familiar with Premiere Pro CS3. In the past, I have created multi-camera sequences that are synchronised by timecode. I have been shooting using the Free Run timecode feature across all cameras, as to maintain a sync'd timecode.
Now that I am using Premiere Pro CS4 at work, I am running into a few issues in preserving my timecode values during capture. I have recorded HDV footage using two Sony Z7's. I downconvert the HDV footage into DV upon capturing - this is so that I can use the scene-detect feature, and still supposedly preserve the timecode for each media file. I captured all of the tapes using scene-detect, and the timecode values were correct for each media file captured.
Having saved, closed, and reopened my Premiere Project the next day, the timecode values for the majority of the media files have been reset (ie, they all start at "0:00:00:00". This is very odd! Only a few of the media files have retained their correct timecode values.
Has anyone else experienced this? Could they please shed some light on this problem or quirk? Am I taking the wrong approach in capturing/organising media? I am following the same procedure as I had done in PPro CS3.
I have since deleted the Media Cache/Preview Files, requiring Premiere to re-index, and re-conform the media files. The timecode values are still incorrect. When I select all of my media files and tell them to go 'offline', the correct timecode values re-appear.
Many thanks for your help,
Andrew

Does anyone have an answer to this problem?? I think I am having the same problem. I don't have as much experience as the others on the
forum, but basically what I tried to do was filming a multi-camera event in free run timecode, then
captured in HDV split, and assumed I could get Premiere to align the clips accordingly. Anyone have any idea how to do this????
Any help is appreciated,
Thanks,
Aaron

Web Premium CS4 Installation Issues

I've been trying to install Web Premium CS4 on my Windows Vista Home Premium computer and keep getting a "setup error->contact customer support" message every time i click the install button, it happens almost immediately. Seeing how customer support isn't available on the weekend i figured i should post my problem here. This is my first time installing any Adobe CS product, so there shouldn't be any conflicting programs on my computer. Any help would be very much appreciated. Thank you!

Problem FIXED!
Round one with Adobe:
I called Adobe once in the morning and discussed how could fix my setup error message and actually install Web Premium CS4 on my computer. They told me the usual such as turn off my antivirus software, mess with msconfig and restart, turn off UAC everything i have already tried but i did it again just to see if by magic it would work, but alas, it did not. Then Adobe told me there was pretty much nothing they could do and to call my computer manufacturer. So i had a conversation with DELL and they basically told me to contact Adobe again....by this point i have spent over 3 hours making phone calls, and it's becoming very irritating. So i think to myself, i'm calling Adobe again and if they can't help me today with this problem i want a refund because it just not worth all this crap. My morning is gone and now my afternoon is about to be, also, i've restarting my computer what feels like 20 times, that can't be good for it.
Round two with Adobe:
I call Adobe again, have another hour plus conversation with them but this time they were much more helpful and they gave me a customer number(why they didn't do that the first time, i'm not sure)and a case number. What i ended up doing was running CS3 cleanscript(i didn't have any previous Adobe software on my computer but they still told me to run it) on my computer about 6 times, then they directed me to microsofts website to download something random for my 32bit Vista machine which checks my machine and made sure certain javascript.dll and vgscript.dll files were running. Also Adobe had to take care of some registration issues on there end. And BAM! problem fixed. And now i have Adobe Web Premium CS4 on my computer and so far so good. Anyways, for everyone who is getting the "setup error-please contact customer support", you need to do exactly that because they had me doing some things to my computer which the average person wouldn't know how to do.
So basically what i'm saying, don't waste time like i did(i was forced becaue it was the weekend and Adobe support is closed) and restart your computer 20 times changing this and that crossing your fingers hoping it will work. Adobe should be able to help. They were not helpful the first time around but the second time i called(the same number) it was almost like i dailed a completely different number and unlocked the "real" Adobe because the experience was completely different.. So call them multiple times if you have too because it seems like it will be a different experience each time. So basically it was a 4 hour ordeal that i hope to never go through again. So goodluck!

Photoshop CS4 Extended, issues with resolution and font sizes on Mac

I have Photoshop CS4 Extended, which worked fine on my old 15 inch Macbook Pro, I think it was 2011 and had high definition display.
I now have a new 15 inch 'late 2013' Macbook Pro with retina display (2880 x 1800), and OS 10.9.4
I have 2 problems:
1) Using photoshop now, the resolution is a lot worse than with my old computer, even though my screen is higher resolution.
For example, the images themselves are worse resolution on my display, far less crisp and more pixelated than any of my other programs. And even the windows such as 'save as...' screens are terribly pixelated also. Is there a way to fix this?
2) When using the type tool, I cannot find how to change the size of the font. There used to be numbers which I could change, and also select the font type, both on the top menu bar always visible. Now there is not anymore. What there is there at the top, is what looks to be a bar on top of another bar. The top layer bar is on the left and reaches about one third of the way across the top, and I can drag it by its corner so it can extend more, but not less. It looks like there are things behind it which I cannot see, because it is over the top of them. Perhaps the text size and font options are stuck behind that. What can I do?
Many thanks!
Justin

Hi JJMack, you said "Seems like you want a low resolution display hook and external display to it." I do not know what that means. I did a google search for "low resolution display hook" and it came up with zero results. Also I do not have an external display, only my laptop.
Does anyone know what I can do to fix this issue? I would greatly appreciate any solution.
Thank you!

Closing Issue of P&L a/cs

Hi,
I'm using SAP B1 2007 B PL:07 from the last financial year(2008-09).
But, after last year closing ,the system still showing the closing balances of
P&L Accounts(i.e.- Sales & Expenditure a/cs) as on 01/04/09.
Whereas, only balance sheet a/c balances should come.
Can anyone tell me the solution.
Rgds
Subrata

Hi,
Make sure that you have chosen all periods to process 'Period End Closing'.
Also make sure to use that the following criteria is used in the Trial Balance Report;
- Disp Opening Balance for Period
- OB from start of company Activity.
- Trial Balance
I think you are using 'OB Start of Fiscal year' instead of 'OB start of Company Activity'.
'OB start of fiscal year' is only relevant in case you are not running the TB with a start date that is not the first date of the fiscal year. This selection criteria will give you the transaction fro m the start of the fiscal year to the start date of the report date.
NB:If there are balances on all P&L accounts in the new fiscal year,that amount would not be carried over.
Hope this will clarify your issue !

Asset period end closing issue

Hello Experts,
I am facing an issue in year closing for 2009. The error says that Asset balance sheet values not completely posted. This is in Area 11 where APC values are not completely posted. This depreciation area is set up in 2009 only with post to general ledger indicator 2 (Area Posts APC and Depreciation on Periodic Basis) in OADX.
The error message takes me to start APC posting program(ASKB). When I execute this I get an error that "Account 'Acquisition:Acquis. and production costs' could not be found for area 11"
My question is if I give an account for this for area 11, what will be the accounting entry. What will be the offsetting account?
What other alternatives I have?
Many thanks in advance.
Sangram

Hi
You need to maintain the APC Account for Dep Area 11 inorder for ASKB to go through....
You can use the same account maintained in Dep Area 01....
The posting generated in ASKB is as explained above... i..e One leg of the entry goes to Contra Account and another goes to APC account or Profit/Loss on sale of asset, as the case may be

Asset year end closing issue

Hi, I run ajab to close year 2010 (not 2011)and encounter below issue:
Asset 004110000555-0000 in company code 0000 (depreciation incomplete)
Message no. AU070
Diagnosis
The planned depreciation was not completely posted to Financial Accounting for asset 004110000555-0000 in company code IN00 in depreciation area 90.
System Response
Year-end closing cannot be carried out for company code IN00.
Procedure
Post the depreciaton using the appropriate posting program (Periodic processing) in Financial Accounting. Then start a repeat run for this asset, if necessary
My depreciation area 90 is "Post assets periodically in General Ledger", what should I do?

Hi
Is depreciation fully posted for the year 2010. Try to run AFAB in repeat mode for the last period of 2010 in test run to see if any values are coming for posting.
If depreciation values exist, then same needs to be posted before you close the Asset fiscal year.
Also please note for posting the depreciation your Fiscal year and period should be open in accounting.

Photoshop CS4 setup issues..

I have windows Vista 32 bit, I doubled clicked on the startup, run as admin, and........nothing happens. What's going on?

Unlock:
Right click on the .exe file or Icon that was down loaded. On the general tab, right below the advance button, sometimes the download will have a statement that the downloaded software was downloaded from another computer (something like that) and there is a button to click to unlock it. Click the button then click apply. Sometimes it is there and sometimes it is not. Just depends on the download.
To shut off windows defender:
Go to control panel, control panel home view. Click on Security. Look for windows defender in the right pane and click on that. On the windows defender window look for tools (next to the question mark). Click on tools. Click on Options. Uncheck Auto scan my computer. Then uncheck Use real time protection. You can turn on defender back on with the alert icon in the tray next to your clock. I have had no issues using CS4 with defender on.
Windows installer to auto:
Easy way is to go to the search pane and type in services. Click on services and click on continue when the window pops up. On the services window go down the list and look for Windows Installer. Under the startup type it should read manual. Right click on manual the look for properties then click on properties. Under the general tab, about mid section, look for startup type. Click on the down arrow and select automatic, then click apply. Look for service status and click on start. When I was done installing CS4 I went back and reverted back to manual.

Photoshop CS4 Install Issue (corrupt file)

As someone else below had this problem, and apparently solved it, I'm reposting here because I haven't solved it, and the issue doesn't seem to be going away like it did for them.
I purchased the CS4 PS upgrade from Adobe's site. After downloading it (using the latest non-beta firefox) I double click the EXE file (of the two it downloads) and get an error stating "A problem occured when extracting some files. Check available space and write privledges"
My drive has over 300gb free space, and I'm running as admin.
I have tried disabling UAC and turning off my AV software to no avail, re-installing and redownloading both with no UAC/AV going. The gentleman (kfallsbob) that had this problem solved it by repeatedly downloading the software until he got a good copy. After this revelation was made, I downloaded the trial version of the latest winzip to get to the .Z7 file and see if it was valid. It extracts part way and gives a data error, so it appears the file is corrupted or becomes corrupted during the DL process.
I have downloaded this 7 times so far. I'm reaching the limit of my patience.
Does anyone have a solution for this? I submitted a request for help through the website, but apparently the case has dissapeared. I will try calling when I get home, but I often work late.
Any help would be greatly appreciated!!!
Thanks.
System: Intel E6700 running vista ultimate 64 with 8gb ram

Looked through that, looks like it's for non Akamai (the DL manager) downloads since those bypass the whole internet cache and whatnot. I tried digging up the FTP site, but looks like they host only their free apps there (go figure...) I'm hoping that they have some alternate DL method I can get to, but still haven't heard from them. Unfortunately phone support is only around until 5pm pacific time and strangely enough, I work until 5pm pacific time... I would love to see a company that has people around later than normal work hours for support!
WHEEEEE!
Edit:
Given that the regular install process and winzip both choke at about 4% through the extraction process, I'm going to call that sufficient as far as unzipping the compressed file goes.

Photoshop CS4 performance issue

HI
we use App-V for almost all of our applications and we work with a local cache mode
as far as I know - the performance of a local application and the virtual application should be the same even if the package is big. a great example is Office 2010 App-V package which works the same as a local installation
We saw that there are some applications that run very slow comparing to a local installation on the same hardware
specifically - Adobe PhotoShop CS4 is a good example. when we load a 10MB picture and try to make a simple task like mark a selection - it takes forever for the application to response!
the weirdest think is that we tried to sequence the application both in App-V 4.6 SP3 and App-V 5.0 SP2 we got the same results. we tried the default things as reset the client's cache or allowing local interaction, com objects... etc.
I really have no idea what else we can do. as I wrote, larger applications work in our environment just fine, but there are some that stuck us. another application that works slower is NIS. I'm not sure if the performance issue is always from
the same reason but I'm trying to figure out what can we do to improve it
would love to get some ideas
Tamir Levy

Hello,
Since Microsoft made this claim (as stated by you), my recommendation to improve your situation still stands;
Open a ticket with Microsoft to understand the topic. My assumption would be that you could name the engineer who visited you a few years ago, and revisit the discussion you had with him and Microsoft directly.
(the statement of course goes against any independt benchmarking - such as
Project VRC,
acknowledged facts by the Community and more..)
As stated already; If you have tested all that you described, I can't offer anymore suggestions apart from the above.

CS4 Installation Issues

Hi,
I'm having a rather difficult time re-installing my Adobe CS4. I had it installed on windows 7 before, but recently crashed it. When I went to reinstall Adobe it comes up with "Installation Error" on the first disk and tells me all the programs have failed to install. An error number is not given. I downloaded the Adobe Support Advisor and it says there is no issue? I then contacted customer support via telephone and they reccomended that I go onto my admin account, run a CS4 Cleaner Utility then try installing again. I have tried this, but I still get the same error message.
I am running Windows7 Home Premium 64bit.
Intel(R) Core(TM)2 Duo CPU T5750 @ 2.00GHz
4GB Ram
I've no idea how to fix this. Has anyone ran into a similar issue and is there any way to resolve it?
Help much appreciated,
Chelsea

I was on the phone with customer service again today and copied the files to my desktop, yet it still
won't install. Looking into the matter more I found the two errors were error numbers 1603 and 1935. I looked through the forums and googled around a bit, but the fixes still aren't working.
I've booted off the disks before which is why it's so puzzeling to me now.

Adobe Premiere Pro CS4 - Export issue.

Hello to the Adobe Community!
Maybe someone here can help me out with some Premiere issues.
I am using Premiere Pro CS4 4.2.1.
I'm on Windows 7 64 (Ultimate N).
My system is:
Intel Core i5CPU [email protected]
3GB RAM
I have updated all Adobe software, and my drivers.
I've had a good look over the forums and I found this article. It's very useful, and hoping it would be my saviour, I went through all the advice given.
Still no luck!
I'm trying to export the media from Premiere to Media Encoder.
My sequence settings are:
1280 x 720
Square pixel aspect ratio
25fps
48000HZ - Stereo
My render settings are:
MPEG2 - DVD
PAL HIGH QUALITY
Everything else is left to the default setting.
When I try to encode via the Media Encoder, it gets to about 1/3rd of the way through and I get a message:
'Encoding Failed
Error compiling movie.
Unknown error.
I have also tried, as per previous posts, to use the Adobe Dynamic Link, both from Premiere out to Encore, and importing in from Premiere when I'm in Encore.
Still no luck! I get an 'encode failed' message when I try to transcode it. I'm pulling out my hair with this one.
Can anyone shed any light on this?
NB: This is my first post on this forum, so apologies if I have missed anything out.
Thanks in advance for any advice,
Em.

Thanks everyone for your help and suggestions - Evan I think you might be right on the memory issue.
I tried one last thing - running Premiere in compatibility mode as an administrator.
Again, it failed after about 7 minutes. It's quite a complicated project, but it's only 14 minutes long.
The strange thing is that although it doesn't seem to render on my work pc, it renders on my home pc, which has similar specs:
CPU: Intel Core i5 760 2.8GHZ 8MB
MEMORY: 4GB (2x2GB) PC12800 DDR3/1600mhz Dual Channel Memory
MOTHERBOARD: Asus P7P55-M Intel P55 Chipset
NVIDIA GeForce GTS 450 1GB
I forgot to say that my work pc, listed above uses an NVIDIA GeForce 8800 GT card.
Do you think that 1GB can really make all the difference?
Sorry if that's a stupid question, I don't have a massive amount of technical knowledge.
Cheers!
Em.

Adobe CS4 OpenGL issues with 10.6.2 and Intel GMA950 video card

I just upgraded to Adobe CS4 and in PS I cannot enable OpenGL. I'm running 10.6.2 on a Macbook with the Intel GMA950 video card.
I was wondering if 10.6.2 does not have the relevant drivers for CS4 to recognize this chipset or that since the video card is integrated (as opposed to a stand alone with the newer Macbooks) that Intel has not update the drivers? It ***** since I cannot use some functions inside PS without OpenGL.

Hello blue20 & welcome to discussions
1.) You can search these forums for the topic of:
Adobe CS4 GMA950
As an example, if you haven't already, in an effort to parse what's already been discussed.
2.) Have you looked at any of the Adobe forums:
http://forums.adobe.com/message/2356530
3.) How many fonts are you working with?
The general approach at this time is to ask if you've checked for any problematic fonts (all languages) with Apple's Font Book (look in the Applications folder). Find and remove all duplicates also.
Start there to be sure all fonts that are in play come out with a clean bill of health.
Don't hesisate to perform wholesale deletion of old and/or little used fonts - be skeptical of anything that has come from Office 2008, including those related to an Equation Editor installation.
By all means be sure any 3rd party apps AND plug-ins are Snow Leopard compatible.
An additional measure is to clear the existing font caches:
http://www.macworld.com/article/139383/2009/03/fontcacheclear.html
That said, 10.6.2 release notes have this to say about fonts:
http://support.apple.com/kb/HT3874
Fonts fixes provided for:
• an issue with font spacing
• an issue in which some Fonts are missing
• font duplication issues
• an issue with some PostScript Type 1 fonts not working properly
Good luck in any case.
