CS4/CS4 Extended with Win7?

I have Windows 7 Home Premium 64-bit software and have a chance to get CS4 or CS4 Extended.  I currently run PSE 8 but I'm wanting to upgrade and can't afford CS5.  My question is, is CS4 compatible?  Before CS5 was out Adobe was saying CS4 was LIKELY compatible but now I can't find anything. I do a lot of photo editing, making wallpapers/icons/signatures/photo manips, etc.
Sorry if this has been asked before but after shuffling through 20 pages I didn't see anything similar.  Doesn't mean it wasn't there, just that I missed it.
Thanks for any help you can give me.

Yes, Photoshop CS4 works great with Windows 7 x64.  I used that combination all the time since Windows 7 was released and before CS5 was released.

  • Exit code 6 when installing PS CS5 Extended with Win7

    Hi all,
    I'm sorry to do this again, I know it is a fairly common problem but I've tried everything and still can't install.
    As the subject line states, I'm trying to install PS CS5 Extended on a Win7 machine.
    I had installed this same disk successfully on my old computer running Vista but now that I've upgraded my computer, I can't install this program onto it.
    I have tried starting win in 'safe mode'
    tried 'run as administrator'
    tried copying the disk onto the hard drive and running startup from there
    tried the clean up file download
    tried fixing windows install logs
    tried switching off conflicting applications
    tried uninstalling anything Adobe, cleaning and then installing
    tried turning off all firewalls etc
    I'm really at a loss.
    If anyone can help me out, that'd be fantastic because I am frustrated and just want to play with my photographs and have some Photoshoppy good fun!
    The install errors I get are listed below:

  • Installing photoshop cs4 extended with cs3 suite

    Hi,
    I would like to install photoshop cs4 extended with cs3 suite on the same drive.
    Is it possible?  Should I uninstall photoshop cs3 (not extended) from the drive first?
    Should I use the WinCS4Cleanupscript before I do that.
    I dont want to uninstall the whole suite cs3.
    Thanks for your advises

    CS3 will co-exist quite happily on your computer with CS4.
    Do not remove it until you are completely satisfied with the new version!
    There is absolutely no need for the clean script at this point. It is only to clear up after messed up un-installs.

  • Is there a 3D rotate tool in Photoshop CS4 (non-extended)?

    I have just installed Photoshop CS4 of my new iMac.  Although I had been led to believe that even the non-extended version came with the 3D rotation tool, in fact, I can find no evidence of it!  Was I misled? If so, I am sad.  Please advise how I might find it, or even add it?

    Yes, you are probably right about how I was led to believe the 3D tool was on the "basic" CS4 Photoshop.  Thanks very much.

    Hi Meredith,
    Illy aka Adobe Illustrator aka AI.
    Photoshop CS4 (non Extended) has a Rotate view tool that works with support video cards to rotate the document canvas. Could that be what was mistakenly called out as 3D rotate tool. (http://www.adobe.com/products/photoshop/photoshop/features/?view=topnew) Depending on the configuration/age of your iMac model you may not se this.
    All the 3D features in Photoshop are for Extended only. (http://www.adobe.com/products/photoshop/photoshopextended/?promoid=DRHXB)

    Heath: I will be glad to help you with that.
    Heath: We do not have the option to upgraded from Photoshop CS3 Extended to Photoshop CS4.
    Visitor: under upgrade eligibility on the store screen. he posted this immediatly after cs4 was released, but the site still hasn't been updated. any word on if us cs3 ee users will be able to go to the standard version or are we going to be stuck doing ee forever now?

    hmm... i wonder if that's "official" or if the installer just doesn't check. i still have cs2 installed on this box, as well as cs3 ee. the rep said that didn't matter as far as the terms of the license went though. (i still say that's not clear and is up for interpretation.) i still haven't decided which i'm going for. the point of my query with the online rep was really to get it cleared up once and for all.
    do you still have cs2 or cs installed there too? or just cs3 ee and cs4 standard?
    thanks for the info nick.

  • Will Dreamweaver CS4 work properly with 10.6.1 Snow Leopard?

    Hello
    Can anyone tell me please, if Adobe Dreamweaver CS4 work properly with my MacBook OS 10.6.1 Snow Leopard? Adobe state "Mac OS X v10.4.11–10.5.4" in the system requirements, but does this mean, in practise, that Dreamweaver will not work properly with Snow Leopard?
    I have tried to find info about this here, but have spend ages wading through masses of complaints about various applications crashing for people after they upgraded to 10.6.1 Snow Leopard. Personally, touch wood, I've had no problems with Snow Leopard, but I only really use it for Internet surfing and word processing (my work, music stuff on Logic Pro 8, is done on my Mac Pro which came with Leopard and which I am NOT upgrading - not yet!).
    I have also attempted to get an answer from Adobe - I 'phoned their "Pre-sales enquiries" number 0800 028 0148 (in the UK) and spoke to someone who sounded as if she was on the moon and who clearly had absolutely no idea what I was talking about. I gave up with them! They didn't give an email address to ask on.
    I'd be very grateful if anyone can give a clear, authoritative answer please - if possible.

    I've been a Mac user since 1987 and have never upgraded the OS too soon after a new version was launched. Any new OS, like new houses, will have a 'snagging list' - unforeseen problems that arise and need to be sorted before your purchase is truly habitable and functions as expected.
    But the stability of OS X 10.5 paved the way for my lapse of judgement when I upgraded to Snow Panther last week, while its compatibility with some major software is still clearly too buggy.
    I've been using Dreamweaver (DW) CS4 successfully on OS X 10.5 for some time. Since installing OS X 10.6.1 I now have problems with DW, which I've alerted Adobe to.
    When using Design View in DW CS4, any formatted text - from html tags to css tags - disappears from the Design view. The code appears correctly in the Code window and even if you highlight text that has coding attached in Code view - eg text with a url link attached - the Design view continues to ignore it and removes the text from its view. I've discovered that my heading tags (h1, h2, etc) all make the text disappear in Design view in a way that would be the envy of members of the Magic Circle! The only thing that seems to get through is text that is surrounded by paragraph tags.
    Thing is that 'Preview in Browser' shows the page correctly (except in Opera, which I've only installed since installing Snow Leopard, so I can't say how this displayed in the previous OS versions).
    Also when I upload the site to the server it all seems to display more or less as it should.
    So currently it seems that DW CS4's Design view is no longer WYSIWYG! Expect to find lots of text hidden in Design view and have to use Code view much more.
    It would be nice to think that Apple and Adobe would talk to each other and work it out between them.
    re: Dreamweaver, I'd check back to Adobe.com regularly to see when they upgrade the OS requirements to 10.6.1 (I hadn't spotted before I bought Snow Leopard that they only go up to 10.5 in their OS recommendations).
    My advice if you're thinking of upgrading to Snow Panther: delay it until it more of it works compatibly with your major applications. Check the OS spec from each software manufacturer first. Meanwhile I'll just have to wait patiently for Apple & Adobe to get their act together...

  • Why does Illustrator CS4 save pdfs with clipping paths and make rasters of gradient areas

    I am on a IMAC and upgraded to 10.6.8 Jan 2014. I am using CS4 Illustrator to create with. When i save my work as a pdf then reopen the pdf in Ill to make changes, the whole page has:
    A.) Multiple clipping paths around it
    B.) Most text has now become outlined. Not editable anymore.
    C.) Gradient areas have multiple clipping paths of the single gradient area
    D.) The gradient areas now become rasterized.
    This is very frustrating as now all of my marketing files, some 300+, are worthless. I don't know where to look anymore to find the problem.
    Please help.
    Thank you very much

    John,
    I have the presets as you have shown. I had been editing the supplied items as you suggested. Then figured i should ask the questions of those who are better than I.
    But still a bit confused as to why the new save places clipping paths around the document.
    Thank you John and Monika for your help.
    why does Illustrator CS4 save pdfs with clipping paths and make rasters of gradient areas
    created by John Mensinger in Illustrator - View the full discussion
    I do a save as "pdf" in the format pull down tab. I save to a folder on the hard drive. Where is the "Illustrator editability" check box? I presumed it is in Acrobat some where
    but i seem to be lost.
    It is in Illustrator's Save Adobe PDF dialog, which pops up before the saved file is written.
    https://forums.adobe.com/servlet/JiveServlet/downloadImage/2-6439399-644928/450-397/Untitl ed-1.jpg
    Sorry i didn't mention this, but this seems to have occurred when using images and text from provided pdfs.
    That's a critical fact. If you didn't do the original save, the above is moot, and it's too late to exercise any control over the save process. Someone else failed to save for editability. The only thing you can do is clean up/repair the content, (release clipping masks, rebuild rasterized elements, expand objects, etc.), and save correctly as AI. Then, if necessary, re-save as PDF with the correct settings.

    I'm doing a transfer from one macbook pro to another. I have CS4 Photoshop Extended. When I go to open it on my new computer it says error 150:30.

    Don't try transferring Adobe software. It rarely works and usually breaks the activation mechanism (150:30 error).
    Uninstall, run the Cleaner tool then re-install from scratch.

  • CS4 & CS5 Indy with same serial number

    Can CS4 & CS5 Indy with same serial number both be open on the same machine?
    Thanks!

    I'm wondering how you have two versions with the same serial number? Volume license maybe?
    In the world of single licenses an upgrade from CS4 to CS5 would get a new new number, at least in my experience. As far as installing multiple versions (but not differnt localizations, like US and ME, of the same version) no problem, and I often have multiple versions open at the same time for testing and answereing questions here on the forum.

  • Will all of the CS4 programs work with Terminal Services?

    I think the title sums up my question...
    Will all of the CS4 programs work with Terminal Services?

    You should be able to solve that problem.
    MiFis have a default power setting on them that turns off the device after XX minutes of no use (As determined by the MiFi).  You can find and modify this setting in the MiFi Admin webpage.  It should be under the advanced area and can be configured to leave the MiFi on all the time.
    That being said, no MiFi model will behave very well as an always on home internet replacement device.  Dedicated home cable routers and modems will always perform better, they are designed for that scenario.  By comparison MiFis are designed to be light weight travel devices, they simply do not have the hardware necessary to be left online all day long with acceptable results.  MiFis are more appropriate as a backup, mobile or temporary internet solution.
    If you are looking for a home internet always on internet connection device you would be safer going with stronger hardware like a USB Modem+CradlePoint router, the VZW 4G LTE router or VZW HomeFusion.  Any of those devices are going to provide you with a better experience for your home than the MiFis without additional equiptment like boosters and antennas.  Some CradlePoint routers can be expensive but perform very well, the 4G LTE router has mixed review and the nice thing about HomeFusion is the special data plan and high powered equiptment.

  • Lost CS4 Photoshop Extended disk

    I misplaced my CS4 Photoshop Extended installation disk and I need to install it on my new laptop.  Where can I download this version?  I have seen the link for Prodesign tools but I was concerned to use it because its not on Adobe's website. 

    The download links work fine. They're successfully used by people in these forums every day.
    The secret is to follow the Steps 0 to 6 of the Very Important Instructions (which appear on every download page) first BEFORE you click the download links.
    If you see errors when clicking the links, it's simply a matter of following the instructions then clicking the links.

  • IS CS3 Production Premium incompatible with Win7 Home Premium 64bit?

    I installed CS3 on my new machine with Windows7 Home Premium 64bit on it and it appeared to install correctly.
    So when I click the photoshop.exe file it opens a window and freezes.... (not responding) I have sat for an extended amount of time and nothing ever happens beyond that.
    If I use after effects or illustrator or flash... nothing happens at all... no windows... however If I open up my task manager, I can see the processes running for those programs... just no applications...
    I have run as admin and in WinXP SP2 mode.
    Disabled DEP and UAC.
    Updated everything in the book.
    I dont' get it...
    So I am starting to wonder if it just isn't compatible with Win7.
    Can anyone shed any light on the subject or direct me to anything that could help out?

    Hudechrome,
    Can you clarify on CS4 running in Windows 7? My employeer is upgrading to 64-Bit Windows 7 Ultimate (new laptop w/8 GB ram). I can re-install with XP if I really want to.
    For Win7 Ultimate, do I just run the 32-bit PS CS4 app for best results or is there something special I need to do?
    Thanks!
    Please read what I said, excerpted here:
    "...and they work fine in all 64 bit OS including Win7...as 32 bit programs."
    Now Dec9 has some further notes above which should work fine. Personally, I will change everything when CS5 arrives. Hardware, OS and programs. Since I am still running CS3 (which should also run on Win7 at 32 bits) I am in no hurry to upset a rather well oiled editing system. Yesterday, I did upgrades to my hardware, adding an additional 1TB drive. I needed extra sata connections so I added a PCI sata card, blew out the dust bunnies, installed the HD and the damn thing wouldn't even post!
    It runs now.
    Wouldn't dare not !!

  • Am I able to use a Hawking 300 Range Extender with the Apple Extreme connected to a PC?

    I am puchasing an Apple Extreme to replace a Linksys router connected to a PC with Win7.  I have been using two Hawking 300 Range extenders to get a better single throughout my home.  Will I be able to continue to connect the Hawking 300 Range Extenders to the Apple Extreme? 

    Will I be able to continue to connect the Hawking 300 Range Extenders to the Apple Extreme?
    Apple's "extend a wireless network" feature on the AirPort Extreme appears to be a proprietary setting that only works with other Apple products.
    So, it is extremely unlikely that the Hawking devices will work with the AirPort Extreme.
    No harm in trying though.
    Please post on your findings.
