CS4 Windows 8

I've tried multiple times and each time the installer stops at about 80-90% on the install.  No error message just stops.
I even tried just installing single parts of the CS4 package and the same thing.  I am running Windows 8 64 bit.
just trying to get photoshop installed.

  • Flash CS4 Windows Projector

    Hi All,
    When publishing a Flash CS4 Windows Projector the file size is 4MB is there a way to reduce this size say down to about 1.5MB.
    Also the fscommands do not appear to work. Does anyone know how to fix this.
    Thanks,

    Hi kglad,
    I am a bit new to this and can not find any info on allowscriptaccess.
    Also most exe files that I have found are 2-3MB and I was just wondering if 4MB is normal as I can not find much info on this.
    Also if 4MB is normal, why the increase in size?
    Thanks,

  • I'm a registered user of cs4, windows version, can I download a copy of cs4 for mac to a new mac

    I'm a registered user of cs4, windows version, can I download cs4 for mac to a new mac computer?

    that's not the problem.
    to obtain a mac license, you need a cross-grade:  http://helpx.adobe.com/x-productkb/policy-pricing/order-product-platform-language-swap.htm l
    unfortunately, adobe only offers cross-grades for current versions of software, and not previous versions.  so, you cannot use cs4 for mac.

  • Upgrade from InDesign Mac to InDesign CS4 Windows, Is this possible?

    Hi all, I have Indesign CS2 Mac, now I am switching to Windows platform and i want to upgrade to Indesign CS4 Window. Is this possible from my copy and  serial number of InDesign CS2 Mac.

    You had better hurry, as when CS5 comes out (sometime in April or early May) there is a very short grace period to do this. I found out the hard way and was too late and had no other choice than to pay to get CS4.
    It's not certain when InDesign CS5 might be released, until Adobe makes a formal announcement. You might want to discuss with an Adobe customer service SUPERVISOR whether you can make the cross-grade after CS5 is formally announced (not released, just announced), and also ask the SUPERVISOR whether your purchase of the cross-grade after the announcement will qualify for a free upgrade to CS5.
    Sometimes policies change, but, I believe that there's a period after announcement of a new release, before it's shipping, that by purchasing the outgoing release, you get a free upgrade to the announced release. I think there's a charge for a boxed product, but not for the downloaded product.
    I'm suggesting SUPERVISOR, because information of this kind often isn't made completely clear to regular customer-support folks. If a supervisor can't give you certain info, ask for the supervisor's MANAGER. Get the name of the person who gives you the info, so you have someone to work with if a problem arises.
    Buying an expiring product in the brief period between announcement of the next release and its actual shipping date, usually results in such a free upgrade. It's important for you to get accurate information about whether upgrading a product in this period works the same way..

  • Photoshop CS4, Windows 7 - move and type tool bugs

    My company recently had me upgrade my Dell Lattitude E6400 laptop from Windows XP to Windows 7. It was a reimage, so I had to reinstall all my software. Previously, I never encountered any bugs with Photoshop (barring the one that doesn't allow you to exit layer options, e.g., opacity, without physically changing layers)... anyway, now I've got two rather - extremely - irritating issues that resolve only when I restart Photoshop.
    1. Move tool (I use CTRL + Click and hold most often): when I place my cursor on the screen, on the object I wish to move (with the correct layer selected), then I try to move this object, suddenly the object JUMPS to some far away corner of the screen. All I am trying to do is what I've always done, move something over a small bit; instead, I have to chase it around. It's like the center of the object/layer suddenly changes.
    This issue seems to go away - at least for a while - if I restart phothoshop. But, if I leave it open for a while (as I use it 4+ hours a day) it returns, inevitably. SOOO frustrating.
    2. Changing text box size: Every so often when I go to adjust the width/height of a text box - while using the text tool - something happens that causes the text box to actually skew/scale/distort/etc. the text. I've never seen this happen before - not on my personal copy/machine, nor on the Windows XP install.
    I've Googled these issues, but to no avail. I'm hoping *some*one out there has some thoughts, particularly for the first issue, which is by far the more irritating of the two, as I end up chasing things around the workspace. (I often have to zoom WAY out, hit CTRL + T to get the transform box to show me where in the workspace it is, and it's generally FAR out of view.)
    Thanks, in advance.

    Some screen interactivity will be reduced without OpenGL, but it's livable.
    OpenGL use was new for CS4, and as it was a whole new way of getting information onto the screen it did cause some problems.
    If you do find the problem is gone without OpenGL (and I suspect it may be; I used CS4 for a long time without seeing what you're seeing so I'm convinced it's a problem on your specific system), check the video driver upgrades from Dell.  A lot of drivers are coming out specifically to support OpenGL as Photoshop needs it - of course, nowadays, that's for CS5 mostly but it's likely helping to make OpenGL more stable for CS4 as well.

  • Cannot view cr2 files in Bridge cs4 & Windows 7

    I can not convert the cr2 files in cs4      nor read them with new Windows 7      Home Edition 64 bit computer
    Upon      downloading from my camera I am unable to view the images.
    After      downloading the file, when clicking on the file in Bridge to bring it into      Photoshop I get the following message” Could not complete your request      because it is not the right kind of document”
    I am      able to view the images on the media card from the camera.
    I have      contacted Canon and they suggest that it’s a software issue and that I      should  go to the Adobe website and      look for Windows 7 64 updater.
    I was      unable to find anything with this reference but I updated to Bridge 5.7.
    After      trying to see the images after the update I was still unable to view the      images so I logged onto the Adobe Support site and was told that they no      longer support cs4.
    Any suggestions ?

    Keep in mind that if your camera is newer than the last released version of Camera Raw (5.7) for Photoshop CS4, Adobe does provide a free solution for compatibility, as Curt has mentioned, through the use of the free DNG Converter application.
    The way that works is this:
    1.  You get your raw images from your new camera into a folder on your computer.
    2.  You run the latest DNG Converter application and choose the folder.
    3.  It converts the entire folder full of images to .DNG files.
    4.  You open a DNG file as you would an older raw file, with your old version of Photoshop.
    While the DNG Converter provides you a way to continue to use your older Photoshop software with a new camera, keep in mind that there are significant improvements in the raw converter in the latest version of Photoshop that may allow you to make better images out of your raw files if you do choose to upgrade Photoshop.

  • My Open GL is not working in CS4 Windows 7

    I recently got a new computer and loaded my Photoshop CS4 on to it and the features of Open GL such as holding down the z key and using the scroll on the mouse to zoom in and out and also the left and right bracket key inceasing or decreasing the size of the brush do not work.  The new computer is using Windows 7 64 bit and has an AMD quad core with 8 Gb RAM.  I checked to make sure that Open GL is selected in the Edit>Preference>Performance where it also tells me that the graphics card does support accelerated graphics for Open GL. 
    Does anybody have any other ideas on what I can do to get this to work?

    What version of driver are you running?
    If it's Catalyst 12.4, I suggest you try downloading specifically Catalyst 12.2, uninstalling Catalyst 12.4, then installing 12.2 and testing again.
    I don't have exactly the same card you do (mine's a 5760) but I've had 12.2 in for a while and that versoin works very well with Photoshop.

  • "Unable to create font" error when starting After Effects CS4 (Windows Vista)

    Hi all
    I have read a hundred posts about the "unable to create font" message that appears when running After Effects in both CS4 and CS5 versions.
    On MAC, it seems that installing the Verdana fonts family is enough.
    On my PC running Windows Vista, i tried unsuccessfully :
    - uninstalled and reinstalled After Effects
    - installed all the fonts of the Adobe Font Folio v11
    - looked for the "AdobeFnt.lst" to delete it, found no such file in my whole hard drive
    - changed my system language to English (USA)
    Other CS4 softwares work.
    What can i do?

    See this page for some additional information about this error.
    > I forgot to mention that i also installed the 9.0.2 update. Didn't work either!
    You should also install the After Effects CS4 (9.0.3) update.

  • Adobe Bridge CS4 window will not open MAC

    I was using Bridge CS4 on a MAC OSX 10.6.8 yesterday and all was fine. Today when I went to use Bridge, there was no window open. Bridge started up and appeared normal. However, there is no window. When I select "new Window" nothing happens. I uninstalled manually and reinstalled all Photoshop software from the start. I went to open Bridge and the same thing occured. How do I get a new window in Bridge to operate?

    Yes!! Success at last. Thank you Omke. Holding down the Option key while starting fixed it. That's an answer that nobody at Adobe could provide me with in 9 hours. Regards.

  • MXF clips do not open in CS3 of CS4 (windows vista ultimate)

    I have Sony DXCAM's MXF's which I can not import in Premiere (neither CS3 nor CS4). I did convert the original MXF's using Sony's DXCAM software.
    Adobe claims it supports MXF files. Another editing company which uses CS3 can import XMF's using a Windows XP machine. I work on Vista Ultimate.
    I have an itch that I am missing a vital codec of somekind, but I can not find out why my copies of CS3 and CS4 of Premiere Pro do not allow me to import MXF files. From within the Media browser in CS4 it results in the same disappointing result. It doesn't open.
    When I tried to open one MXF file in CS3 the program crashes and forces me to close it. In CS4 I get an error message after importing which reads; "Unsupported format or damaged file."
    Any help is very much appreciated, as I need to start my editing ASAP>
    Thx!

    System specs short:
    Windows Vista Ultimate

    Hi Jim,
    Thanks for your feedback. The first thing I tried was to import the MXF packages (I don't see lone MP4's) into Premiere. That did not work. So I exported the MXF files using Sony's U1 player/recorder.
    I think its a Vista and/or codec problem, as my friend who workes on an XP machine is able to open MXF's in CS3.

  • Photoshop CS4 - Windows XP/64bit

    So, i recently brought Adobe Production Premium CS4, and like alot of people, Photoshop is definatly one of my main tools of trade. I use it primarily for digital painting. However, i currently run the program on Windows XP 32bit, 500GB Hard Drive, 4GB RAM (Seen as 2.6GB due to being only 32bit...annoying i know), 9800 GTX NVidia graphics card, and a 2.4ghz Quad Core processor. This runs very fast with most programs, but not Photoshop CS4 it does not. It isn't as bad as it used to be, but still runs like crap, and is making it almost impossible to paint/draw fast at all. I have all OpenGL support, on, as my computer should be able to handle it fine as it has no problem with other applications such as Maya, but even with this off it still runs slowly.
    After monitoring Photoshop resource usage on my PC, i realized it page-files about 2GB of Page file or more, and seems to only really use my first and last processor cores. So i was wondering, if i updated my operating system to Windows XP 64bit, would this make a very noticable difference to its preformance to make it more like CS3 or 7.0, or would this be practically pointless? I am trying to stay away from Vista due to the fact that i generally dont like it, and its compatability problems are annoying. So are there any bugs/things i should know before spending money to get 64bit XP, or should i change somthing on 32bit? or is there even a good noticable difference? Or am i unfortinatly better off upgrading to vista? Or does anyone happen to know how windows 7 will act with it yet?
    Thanks, Ricky

    Interesting....
    My graphics card has no option to fource what it uses to render, and Photoshop CS4 aprantly is only programed to use OpenGL anyway. Ironically, after creating this topic, i found out about Adobe's update release of Photoshop CS4 11.0.1, which i didnt have installed. I have it now, and it has definatly made one hell of a big diffeence!! However, the program still lags in many places. Navigating around the image and clicking the text tool (which used to be very slow for whatever reason), are much faster now, however i am still quite confused about one thing it still insists on doing:
    I tested 11.0.1. I found it much faster. However, memory usage still seemed a little off. It started at 0.99GB (is what task manager said, even though that is a weird way to say it....), which is much betetr than before. I opened a document of about 3000px width, and 2000px height. It came to using about 1.16GB pagefile then. I painted all over it rapidly to see how much the lag had improved, and i zoomed in and out fast and really shook it around to see if it lagged there, which it didn't...so good news. BUT, then i close the image, and the pagefile goes UP? to 1.28GB... And then drops down to 1.21GB..and stays there. I open another image that was 141.5MB. The pagefile went upto only 1.25GB, and the preformance was really good still....unlike it was in photoshop 7.0 for some reason even though ive always called Photoshop 7.0 to be the most stable realease of it yet....
    So i don't really know what to think now. Is there a problem? After closing the image the pagefile was still at 1.25GB, so it didnt drop down the memory like it should have for some reason. I think CS3 had a similar problem that eventually caused an error sayign there is not enough RAM avalible, even if the image was tiny, and i still had 2.5GB of RAM. Some how i got around that by saving the image in PS 7.0, and the opening it in CS3, then it didnt care for some reason.
    blizzman, do you have another hard drive for Photoshop to use as a scratch disk? I was thinking of getting a 74GB 10,000 rpm hard drive for it and other programs, but i was wondering if it really requires it for a difference? Below is an image of my task manager with photoshop preferences if anyone has any suggestions?
    Thanks for the reply blizzman.

  • Photoshop CS4 Window Stays In Background

    When I drag an image file into Photoshop CS4, the file opens but Photoshop remains in the background – i.e., in the window behind the one that I dragged the file from.
    For example - I open Photoshop, then open Bridge, with the Bridge window mostly covering Photoshop’s window. Drag a file from Bridge to PS. The file opens in PS, but the PS window is still behind Bridge’s window. I have to either ALT-Tab or click on the PS Window to bring it to the front.
    On prior editions of PS, it would come to the front automatically when a new file was opened. I still have CS3 on my computer, and verified this.
    This happens whether the file is dragged from Bridge, Windows Explorer, or Thumbs Plus. It happens in both the 64 and 32 bit versions of CS4. I looked through the preferences and don’t see anything that seems to relate to this behavior. Is this how CS4 is meant to work? Is there any setting I can tweak to change this?
    Thanks in advance –
    TR

    It doesn't happen here.
    Sometimes I have to use the Arrange Documents menu to float the image.
    However, I normally jut "Open" them from Bridge with a double click or right-click, rather than dragging.
