Does Photoshop CS4 Extended for PC (Vista) remove TWAIN devices?

I hadn't scanned anything at least since last year (at least that I can remember- Maybe I did, but I cannot remember). Last year, Photoshop listed my Mustek 1200 UB Plus and some other device under TWAIN (or TWAIN 32) under import. Recently it stopped displaying. The TWAIN32 plugin is listed in the Import/Export directory under Plugins in the Photoshop directory. Photoshop does load "Twain" when loading plugins, but it no longer displays the TWAIN section, and therefore I cannot scan anything into Photoshop.
Windows Vista shows that the scanner is working properly and the driver is up to date.
I did try to scan with the Adobe Acrobat, but it doesn't seem to show the scanner as well. My system does recognize it when it is plugged in. I would like to scan a large printed document to put into a PDF.

How do I call up the scanner software inside Photoshop? Previously, I was able to do that through "Import > Twain32 > Mustek..." Now I cannot. If that was separate software that was called up, before, I am not aware of it. But I did notice that no software is able to import anything from that scanner suddenly. I don't know if it somehow got uninstalled (though the scanner and driver are still installed). I don't remember any scan software ever being listed anywhere. I only used Photoshop to scan in documents before.
I noticed that Twain32.dll used to run in my windows services but is not running now, but the libraries are still available.

Exmakkina I am sorry but it is only possible to request a platform swap for the current shipping version which is Creative Suite 6. You can find more details at Order product | Platform, language swap.
As a previous Creative Suite owner you also qualify for an upgrade price to the Creative Cloud. You can find more details at https://www.adobe.com/creativecloud.html?promoid=KLXLR.

Photoshop CS4 extended with Vista 64?

My question: Is Photoshop CS4 extended supported by Vista 64? (I want to change from Windows XP to Windows Vista 64). Thanks for information.

Yes it is. The installation will put a 64-bit and a 32-bit version on the computer. The latter is handy if you use plug-ins* which are not available in 64-bit.
You may also need to get new drivers for printers, scanners, etc, and probably need to update your video drivers.
*Do not bung a load of old plug-ins in the plug-in folder without checking first.

Photoshop CS4 Extended quick question

Hello,
My question is simple so I'll keep it brief. I'm able to buy Photoshop CS4 Extended via the University I go to, but I would only use the photography features. Does Photoshop CS4 extended work the same way Photoshop CS4 does in that regard, but with just more advanced features for video etc?
In other words, will Photoshop CS4 extended work the same was as Photoshop CS4 would with my photos?

This is what I thought, but I wanted to make sure considering even with my student discount it's still upwards of $400 and with no return policy once opened.
Enjoy it you lucky guy!
Most of us have to pay a lot more, especially here in UK!

My current Camera Raw 5.7 for Photoshop CS4 Extended does not support Canon EOS 6D. What can I do? Will there be a Photoshop Camera RAW for that?

You would need Camera Raw 7.3 or later to open those files. Adobe is not going to update CS4. You can either get a newer version of Photoshop that comes with a current version of Camera Raw, or you can use the DNG converter to save your files down to the ACR version that works with CS4.

Cancelled Serial Number for Photoshop CS4 Extended

In 2010 I purchased a copy of Photoshop CS4 Extended. I have been using it happily ever since until last weekend when I made the mistake of upgrading my PC to Windows 8. I reinstalled Photoshop and all worked well until a few hours later a message came up saying that my Serial Number was invalid. I contacted Adobe on-line chat service and went through my problem in detail. They confirmed that there system was saying my SN was a fake. I was asked to contact the Piracy department which I did sending them scanned images of the CDs and packaging showing the serial number etc. That was at the beginning of the week and I am now left with a locked out application and no way of escalating the problem. I have been told that eventually the piracy whiz kids will contact me.
Has anybody had this problem before and does anybody know how I can actually talk to a living being in Adobe. I have spent hours trying to find a telephone number that I can use to contact the piracy department.
It is just as well photo editing is not my main job!! The kids would be starving.

Vanwell did you purchase the software originally from Adobe? If not have you tried contacting the reseller who sold you Creative Suite 4?
Our piracy team will likely investigate the details but it is likely you will need to work with the seller of the software if you wish to obtain a refund or be compensated for your purchase.

Adobe Photoshop CS4 Extended, owned for ages, licensing for this product has expired? Was using it two months ago.

Hello,
I have been trying to get Adobe's help for over a month now. I've been on the phone twice to them, opened up three seperate cases and still arrived at no solution. I was bought Photoshop CS4 Extended awhile ago and use it for my studies (I'm an art student). Two months ago my harddrive on my computer failed and I had to have a new laptop. I went to reinstall Photoshop and "Licensing for this product has expired" comes up. I've uninstalled, inreinstalled many times and used Microsoft Fix It Programme for uninstalling to make sure all the files are gone.
Surfing the forums I learned that there should be a folder with back up and Adobe PCD but I don't have that folder at all. The serial number I use is my original serial number that I know works and adobe have even said it's a technical error. What do I do? College starts again in two weeks and I don't have the programme I use for it!

Try the License Repair Tool Adobe - Adobe Licensing Repair Tool
Other suggestions if this doesn't work: Error "Licensing has stopped working" | Windows
Also if you must uninstall, use the Adobe CS Cleaner tool, not the Microsoft one. Use the CC Cleaner Tool to solve installation problems | CC, CS3-CS6

After many months of non-use, when I opened Photoshop CS4 Extended, I got an error message 148.3. "Licensing for this product has stopped working." I need help, please.

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!

How do you make a 3d octagon in photoshop cs4 extended?

How do you make a 3d octagon in photoshop cs4 extended that you can map artwork to? I've been searched online for a solution that doesn't involve using a 3D program but can't find anything. Can't you extrude a shape like in Illustrator, or exporta true 3D shape from Illustrator that will work? I'd use Illustrator but the mapping thing is finicky, and doesn't alow wrapping images around angles. (now someones going to say: "Don't mention any other programs in a PHotoshop forum!" Yeah yeah, there should be a forum then about using different Adobe programs together.) End of rant, any suggestions much appreciated.
Thanks,
Mike

Thanks for your prompt response!
Suggested Bridge Update
It turns out that I got a message that this update had already been installed, which led me to more carefully look at the Bridge window and (finally) see that the Output module had a Quality dropdown: Full, 300 ppi, 150 ppi, 96 ppi and 72 ppi. Thanks! I decided to compare the CS4/Bridge results to those I got in CS2 with its convenient File/Automate/PDF Presentation/Multi-Page Document routine that I like.
My project was an 8-page PDF made from scanned pages of handwritten notes into which some fairly small type had been insert using the Photoshop CS2 Type tool. In Photoshop CS2, I had settled on "medium quality" JPEG compression as giving a "reasonable" file size (about 7 MB) and "very good/excellent" image quality. I experimented with making the PDF in Bridge, using all five Quality levels. See table below. The Bridge "good minus" file was about the same size as the file produced in CS2, which I judged to be "very good/excellent" and slightly better visually than the 300-ppi, 23.5-MB Bridge file.
Bridge Quality:
Full
300 ppi
150 ppi
96 ppi
72 ppi
File Size:
25.2 MB
23.5 MB
7.6 MB
3.2 MB
2.1 MB
Subjective Quality:
Very good
Very good
Good minus
Poor
Useless
I appreciate that you may not be all that interested in these observations, but it seems to me that Adobe has done us no favors in the multi-page PDF department in going from CS2 to CS4!
Install the Old Contact Sheet/Picture Package Plug-Ins
I had already done this some time ago, in order to get in CS4 the File/Automate/Contact Sheet II feature I liked in CS2. It does not appear to me that this plug-in has anything to do with make multi-page PDF's. Perhaps I'm missing something.
Again, thanks for your response!

Photoshop CS4 Extended and Lion 10.7.4

Does Adobe Photoshop CS4 Extended work on Lion 10.7.4? when I get the "Licensing for this product has stopped working" and I advance to where I'm to click on the License RecoveryLauncher.app it does not appear. A file called License Recovery Launcher does appear with the circle with the line through it.

Since this post is 4 months old, but for some reason only appeared today, assume problem solved.

Photoshop CS4 extended upgrade problems.....Help!

I am using Photoshop CS3 (registered and activated) on my old computer.
I built a new computer and want to install CS4 extended on it. I purchased a Photoshop CS4 Extended update from Amazon for $342.99. During installation of CS4 on my new computer I entered the serial number. The next page that pops up is Upgrade Check that asks: 1) Select product that you already own: The only choice is Adobe Photoshop CS3 Extended and 2) it asks for the serial number. I am upgrading from Photoshop CS3, not the extended version, so it will not accept my serial number. Photoshop is installed on a trial basis right now.
I tried installing Photoshop CS3 on the new computer but that did not help and CS3 did not recognize the CS2 installation disk that I put in the CD drive to prove that I was allowed to install a CS3 uprade.
The new computer I am trying to install on is an Intel i7 920 processor on a Gigabyte GA-EX58-UD4P motherboard, with 12Gb RAMM, a Sapphire Toxic Radion HD 4870 graphics card, and running Windows XP pro 64 bit. I installed the operating system on the D drive. This computer is not setup to connect to the internet.
I am also trying to install Adobe CS2 Creative Suite (everything except Photoshop), but the CS2 installation does not recognize the Adobe CS1 disk 1 when I put it in the CD drive as requested.
This is all very frustrating considering how happy I have been with my Adobe software all the way back to Photoshp 5. I called the 800-833-6687 number and after playing phone tree for a while was informed that I was calling outside their hours (at noon on Sunday) even though the webpage I got the number from says they are available 7 days a week.
It was bad enough that after spending $195 to upgrade to Photoshop CS3, 3 weeks later Adobe announced Photoshop CS4.
Thanks in advance for any help,
Steve

You do like making things complicated don't you?
From your message I deduce that you purchased an upgrade that is not in the upgrade eligibility path from the version that you had.
It's not logical but then what is these days in Adobe marketing? The only solution seems to be to get back on the telephone.

3D not accessible in Photoshop CS4 extended trial?

I have just downloaded the photoshop cs4 extended trial. I want to convert an existing photo to 3D however the entire 3D menu items are greyed out.
Any thoughts please?

No idea. I can only speak for the full Master Collection and there it works when installed as a trial. I would assume that the standalone PS trial supports all the features, otherwise it wouldn't be PS Extended. Even more so, as the 3D part is Adobe's own concoction that does not involve third-party licensing rights which could possibly prevent them from having this in the trial...
