Downloaded CS5 Trial version, photoshop doesn't work

I just downloaded the trial version of CS5.  All the applications open and work except photoshop.  When you open it it states "Some of the application components are missing from the application directory, please reinstall the application".  If I un-install it, how do I reinstall it from the download.
I had CS2 installed and working just fine, then all of a sudden it would no longer open correctly.  I uninstaled it and reinstalled several times before deciding to try CS5.

The reinstall process is the same as install and is described here :-

Did you run the installer and see any errors?

  • Where can I download the trial version of Photoshop CS6 NOT Photoshop CS6 Extended

    I'm trying to download the trial version of Photoshop CS6, but adobe just returns me the download page of Photoshop CS6 Extended. Where can I download that? Is that available as a trial?

    The only way is to buy a license I have complained to Adobe for I do not want to be a beta tester and do not want to even see extended feature during a trial.  I talk for over an hour with their support on the phone before paying for a licence.  They told me the bug I wated fixed in CS5 was fixed in CS6 so I sprung for a license only to find out they lied the bug is still in CS6 andAdobe has added additional bugs. Things that work in the past now have bugs.  IMO what I paid for is a beta not a good release so many Actions and Scripts fail if your preferences is set to edit in floading windows. The Only way to even use CS6 it to edit with preference set to open in tabs then float windows with tabs option in effect.   New features support like Bicubic Automatic was not added to Photoshop Scripting which breaks Script that reference a users interpolaton preference when the preference is the default Bicubic Automatic.  Installing the Script listener disables the new allow tool recording option. The new Allow Tool Recording is machine dependant recording a massive amount of data on fast machine and a small amount of data on slow machines. Playing an action that record tools on a fasts machine when played on a slow machine is unuseable. There is at least one new bug in the Action player and one new bug in the Action recorder.  The there are other new features like content aware move the feature may work on a document where the move is relatily easy to pull off.  Professional as well as well as amatures tha pay the price for Photoshop want tools that are well designed and work not tools that may work on some machines or  work on easy problems not hard ones. IMO CS6 as is is beta code and has some design flaws as well.

  • I can't download Elements 13. It said an error occurred. I downloaded a trial of Lightroom and it worked. However, when I bought Lightroom, it doesn't download.

    Which operating system are you running on?
    We might be able to help with Photoshop Elements but lightroom has it's own forum
    Photoshop Lightroom
    It would be useful if you could give us any error message you are seeing.
    Are you trying to download Photoshop Elements from here

    For Lightroom, you need to say if you have bought the standalone version or the cloud version.

  • Downloaded and installed CS5 trial version

    I downloaded Adode Download assistant and was able to do installation of Download Assistant and did an apparent download and install of CS5 trial version.  However, the Download Assistant did not start the application as promised.  What I got was a "Finish" screen that suggested I start out with tutorials on Adobe TV.  They all appeared unrelevant to CS5 and CS5 itself could not be started even by going to the folder CS5 had created in my user file.  What do I need to do to actually run the CS5 trial version? My operating system is Windows 7 Home Premium, the computer is a Toshiba Satellite E305-S1990 that has worked fine on other dowloads though none were from Adobe.  How do you expect people to purchase your programs if they can't run the trial versions?

    The trial I was attempting to install was the Photoshop CS5.1trial.  No, I didn't receive any error messages while doing the download or install.  I have tried installer several times.  It does not indicate that the trial has already been installed, but goes through what looks an installation process as follows.  Each time it says it has completed installation and shows me a page with a finish tab at the bottom of the installation steps listed on the left side.  In the center of the page is a message which says something like "Continue on to the next step to learn about CS5" or something to that effect.  If you click on the message you are taken to "Adobe TV' which appears to have little to do with CS5.  If instead to hit the 'Continue' or 'Next' tab at the bottom of the page it does something I can't remember at the moment (and the PC I loaded onto is packed away for a trip I'm leaving on tomorrow).  In any case, yes there are files in my user
    folder and I have clicked on the file marked CS5 to no avail.  If there is a secret to actually running the program, I obviously don't know it.

  • Can I download the trial version of photoshop and use it as the full version with my serial number?

    I have photoshop 6.0 on my current computer, I got in in college 4 years ago and the disc subsequently came to a tragic end after a collision with my dogs teeth T_T I still have the serial number though.  My problem is I've just bought a new computer and I was told that to transfer photoshop to my new computer I had to deactivate it on my old computer and then download the trial version using the original serial number.  Will this work?

    Is this Photoshop Elements 6 or Photoshop 6?  Either way this would not be the current version so it will be difficult to obtain the installation files as we only offer replacement media for the current version.  If you have your serial number though you will qualify for upgrade pricing.  For additional details please review http://www.adobe.com/products/photoshop-elements.html.

    Hello, I recently downloaded a trial version of Lightroom and then decided to get the monthly photoshop membership.  Now, when I launch Lightroom, my choices are to enter a serial number to continue the trial.  On the adobe website, it says "You can convert your trial to a Creative Cloud complete or single-app membership by purchasing on the Creative Cloud website. After you purchase your membership, your desktop product trial will automatically be licensed upon relaunch."  But this is not the case.  I do not want to risk losing my catalog and the work I have already done in Lightroom, so what should I do?

  • How do I download the trial version of Photoshop Extend?

    I am trying to download the trial version of Photoshop Extend but I am having problems doing so.   My computer meets all the system requirements, I have cleared out my temp files and tried switching web browsers from Windows Explorer to Mozilla Firefox.  Nothing works.  I go to the trial download page for Photoshop Extend, select the drop-down menu for "English/Windows/815.5" and click "Download".  In Windows Explorer, I get that exclamation mark over the pointing finger then I'm directed to the page that says, "try again".   Basically the same thing in Firefox.  Why can't I download this program?
    Many thanks!
    Regards, Lewis J.

    Turn off windows internet explorer popup blocker.
    If your on a router turn off windows firewall. Most routers already have a builtin firewall and using 2 firewalls does not help matters in downloading.

    can you re download a trial version of photoshop cs6 if already downloaded in the past?

    You can download as often as you want, but it will only work once on the same system. if you already have used up the 30 days on your machine, reinstalling will not give you another 30 days.
