From CS2 to CS4 and from 32-bit to 64-bit

This might make some of you laugh but i upgraded from Ps CS2 full version which is 32-bit to CS4 and i want to install my upgrade CS4 on a new Vista 64-bit system. Will this enable my upgrade to run as 64-bit? Or do i have to buy the full version of CS4 in order to have it run as 64-bit?

Personally,I don't think is a strange question, mainly because I will be in the same position soon. If I understand correctly, you are concerned that you wont be able to install CS4 64bit if you have to install CS2 first. Is that correct?
If so, I'm in the same boat. I assume that it will be possible as it is possible to run CS2 in 64bit mode.

  • Can I upgrade from CS2 to CS4 and skip CS3?

    Can I upgrade from CS2 to CS4 and skip CS3? It would save me time.

    Colin,
    >But I did exactly what everyone on here said they did, went onto adobe.com to do our research, saw that the upgrade works from CS2-CS4
    Adobe shows there are multiple versions of the suites on their site and clearly points the way for purchasing at the Adobe Store. Just for the heck of it, I also went to MacMall.com and MacConnection.com, two well-known online resellers. I checked their Adobe CS4 upgrades, and they clearly indicate which older versions they are meant to go with. Not quite so clear from MacZone.com and a few other reseller sites I visited.
    >I am an IT person for a printing company, and as such I spent hours upon hours preparing for this transition.
    It took me just a few minutes to find the correct version I needed.
    >no one can tell the difference, and most vendors don't know it exists. We could help you, but you didn't buy it from us."
    Maybe the reseller you bought from is just sloppy and didn't mark the SKUs properly. But how is this Adobe's fault -- particularly when other vendors can and DO get it right?
    Also as both Mac and Win upgrades are pretty much determined and marketed the same way, what does this sloppiness have to do with Mac market share?
    But that said, there is enough good information on the Adobe site that should trigger some questions if you as the IT guy have any doubts and are responsible for buying for your company. At the least, doesn't it make sense to call Adobe and ask which SKUs you should buy? It could've saved hours of research time.
    If you truly did your research and purchasing carefully and were still fooled, I suggest you start with a complaint to the reseller who sold you the goods.

  • Upgrading from CS2 to CS4

    I've upgraded from CS2 to CS4 on my WindowsXP, and my question is, can i now safely remove CS2 from my program roster without impacting any of my CS4 applications?

    If you're low on disk space, uninstalling CS2 will accomplish NOTHING. If you've reached this point, you need a new harrdrive.
    Working with a system drive with under 20% free space is a disaster waiting to happen.

  • Dictionary transfer from CS2 to CS4

    Hi, all.
    I've built up quite a specialized dictionary in CS2. Now, our company is going to CS4. Will my CS2 dictionary transfer over, and if so, how?
    I appreciate any help.

    Hi Michael,
    Honestly I don't know if the custom dictionary files changed format or anything from CS2 to CS4.  When you get CS4, try linking to it from Preferences > Dictionary.
    If you're saying though that you're not working with an auxiliary custom dictionary, and instead have added/removed words from your User Dictionary (the default one), then my best guess is you're going to lose those. So, don't uninstall CS2 yet ... boot the program, go to Edit > Spelling > Dictionary, and export the words you see in Added Words. (Maybe also in Removed and Ignored Words). There's an Export button there.
    Then when you install CS4, if the dictionary was overwritten, you could always go back to that Dictionary dialog box and click the Import button to bring the added words back in.

    I am trying to update ITunes from 10.4 to 10.5 I have tried from both the program, and from a download on Apple's website. Regardless, I get the following error messages: (1) Installation package for iTunes cannot be found. Try installing to find the installation package 'iTunes.msi' in a folder from which you can install iTunes.  I can't find this folder. I have tried to completely unistall iTunes through the Control Panel, but it wouldn't let me: I tried going directly to the files themselves, but cannot uninstall. Any help would be greatly appreciated. System OS: Win XP SP 3.

    Set the permissions for Everyone in the folder in which CCPackager created, to "Read/Write" enabled. This is strange since there is only an administrator account on the Mac (and that account already has read/write), but it seems to resolve the issue.

  • I have problems transferring files from PC to Mac and from Mac to Mac

    I have problems transferring files from PC to Mac, and from Mac to Mac.  PC to PC is fine.  Nothing but problems with the Mac.  One example:
    While working on my PC, I open shared folders on an external HDD connected to the Mac.  I click on paste to move the files.  I get an error after a few seconds to a minute of trying to move several files from my PC Win 7 to Mac OS Maverick, that there is a file already at the destination on Mac. This statement is true, but it was just put there because I am copying them over in that same action.  It reads 0Kb and wasn't there before I started.  Then I get an error: The Action Cannot be completed because the folder is open in another program.  Close the folder or file and try again..
    Whether I click on it a bunch right of way or wait, it still takes about 45 seconds. I have to do it with every file and it only happens when copying from a PC to Mac.  I have even restarted both computers so nothing is using any files.  If I copy one file at a time, I don't get any error.
    So I have one file to move, no problem.  If move 5 files, The first will go fine, but it shows all 5 files in folder at once.  All other files than the first show 0kb. I get the file already existing error once it starts the second file transfer, and I select move and replace.  Then I get The Action Cannot be completed because the folder is open in another program.  I wait or click repeatedly until it starts to move file.  That file will then show something other than 0kb.  When it is done, the error process starts all over.  I tried checking the PC with unlocker, but the files do not show themselves locked on the PC.

    Its not only French. Even certain characters in English will come across as gobblydegook from 1 platform to another. I see this in emails that likely were composed in Word & the characters don't come across.
    Not sure if this is still true, but years ago someone explained that there is a standard character set & then I think its extended characters & those vary from platform to platform or language to language, etc.

  • I accidently deleated file from the Elements organizor and from the hard drive. Can I get it back?

    I accidently deleated a file from the Elements organizor and from the hard drive. Can I get it back? How to do it?

    There's a good chance that you can if you haven't done too much work after deleting it.  Typically files are not actually wiped from the hard drive, rather the space they take is marked as free to use by another file if needed.  So if it hasn't been used by another file it can be recovered.
    Try this program...  it will help if you know where the images were stored.

    Re: Is Iphoto gone ? i want it back!
    in response to Johannes666
    Recommended
    Go to the App Store and check out the Purchases List. If iPhoto is there then it will be v9.6.1
    If it is there, then drag your existing iPhoto app (not the library, just the app) to the trash
    Install the App from the App Store.
    Sometimes iPhoto is not visible on the Purchases List. it may be hidden. See this article for details on how to unhide it.

    One question often asked: Will I lose my Photos if I reinstall?
    iPhoto the application and the iPhoto Library are two different parts of the iPhoto programme. So, reinstalling the app should not affect the Library. BUT you should always have a back up before doing this kind of work. Always.

  • New hard drive, reinstall upgrade from CS2 to CS4 Question

    Hi,
    I upgraded my CS2 to CS4 Extended early this year, my hard drive just bit the dust and I have to re-install the CS4, will I have to call customer service again to get my copy of CS4 Extended activated, again?
    Thanks, Charles Grubbs / futurexboy

    Like you, I've completely recovered from a hard drive failure - one of two in a RAID 0 arrangement in my case.  Windows Backup restored it completely, likewise without re-registration, etc.  A key difference is Windows Backup runs for me late at night, in a set-it-and-forget-it fashion (my computers stay on 24/7).  I don't have to boot up a separate system to run it.
    But I don't doubt Image is a good product.
    It's good to have good alternatives to choose from.

    Wouldn’t that have been a strain on your nasal cartilage?

  • Upgrade from CS2 to CS4?

    I work for a legal education company and our Composition Department currently uses CS2 InDesign for our manual and brochure production.
    We use the Data Merge functions in InDesign for every marketing piece created, as well as scripting. The majority of our product is mass-produced, quick turn-around mailings, with occasional individual pieces for specific programs.
    Our mauals are created from materials submitted by faculty members for each program. These are converted to PDF or scanned and compiled in Acrobat; with the cover, title pages and table of contents created in InDesign.
    I use the entire CS2 suite for all of our other printed media and web design components, as well as individual creative pieces for partners.
    We are discussing upgrading and I was wondering if anyone could tell me if there are any new and fantastic time-savers that I can research to see if they would suit our purposes before I write my proposal. Anything you have used and liked/disliked? New features that have cut times down?
    We operate on PCs, not Macs, incase that will make a difference in your thoughts.

    Here's my top 10 for InDesign: http://theindesignguy.com/cs4-thoughts.shtml
    Keep in mind that those are my top 10 from CS3 to CS4. It doesn't even touch on the new CS3 features.

  • Use Preferences from CS2 in CS4?

    I have deleted CS2 and installed CS4.
    How can I use my preferences from CS2?  I hate the thought of trying to reconstruct my actions, function keys, menu colors, etc.

    First of all, regrettably there is no adobe warning other than here and in various obscure Tech notes about the advisability of saving the panoply of brushes, actions, plug-ins and preferences that many users accumulate during their use of Photoshop. It seems you have to learn by bitter experience.
    Third party plug-ins should always be kept in a separate folder, identified in preferences. Actions and brushes should be saved in sets and backed up along with any styles, presets, and such like.
    The whole folder containing a "good"set of preferences should also be backed up.
    All this makes life easier if you have to re-install or, as in your case, upgrade.  The only help adobe gives is a warning during the uninstall process about shared files.
    Regarding your questions, if you saved any of the above, they may be still on disk or on your image backup, and can be loaded into the new version. However I am pretty sure most of the preferences (psp files) will not be applicable to CS4 anyway.
    Re-installing CS2 will obviously not bring back your personal items (although you will need the disk for the upgrade).
    Rebuilding preferences from the edit menu in a new version only takes a few minutes and is essential in CS4 owing to the many changes. Also, even if you manage to locate and reload the other things mentioned, be prepared to find a lot won't work.
    Sorry for the long answer – I hope some of it helps!
