From cs2 to cs5 and i'm stuck already!

Hi,
just loaded my brand new photoshop cs5 extended, a big jump from cs2, and i'm stuck!
I create a new page to build a design on, i open an image and it replaces the page, i open a different image and it replaces the last image. if i delete the last image every file goes. what has changed from cs2 to cs5 that wont allow me to build a project?
HELP!!

i should have stayed with magic markers!
Wouldn’t that have been a strain on your nasal cartilage?
Maybe you can still find the Help-pdfs for CS3 and CS4 online and check out their respective »What’s New«-sections to get a more or less full list of the changes.

  • Can I remove photoshop cs2 after I have upgraded from cs2 to cs5?

    Can I remove Photoshop CS2 after I have upgraded from CS2 to CS5?  I upgraded from CS2 to CS5 quite a while ago and I have never removed CS2.  Will it affect CS5 to remove the old CS2 if it was an upgrade?

    If I were you I would just delete the installed  Adobe CS2 folder. Adobe CS2 uninstaller my remove settind CS5 made to your system after CS2.   The CS2 uninstaller may try to restore settings to a point in time where there was no Photoshop installed on your system.  If you do a CS un-install you may need to then Install CS5 on top of itself the update cs5 for the install will not have the updates you will be back at CS5 level .

  • I bought the photoshop cs2 cs3 cs5 and lightroom and lightroom 4. i can't install on may new macbookpro 13inch?

    i bought the photoshop cs2 cs3 cs5 and lightroom and lightroom 4. i can't install on may new macbookpro 13inch?

    On which operating system are you trying to install these Adobe apps?
    Please specify the operating system name and version.
    If you have purchased new Macbook Pro, then you should have atleast Mac OSX 10.9 or later. However, i doubt you will be able to install most of these apps on it as they are pretty old apps except CS5 & Lr4.
    Still you can give it a shot and check.
    What happens when you try to install them?
    Do you get any error message? An error screenshot or full text of the error, should be helpful.

  • I want to upgrade from CS2 to CS5.

    I want to upgrade from CS2 to CS5. Will my system requirements be adequate? Thank you!
    Hardware Overview:
    Model Name:          iMac
    Model Identifier:          iMac7,1
    Processor Name:          Intel Core 2 Duo
    Processor Speed:          2.4 GHz
    Number Of Processors:          1
    Total Number Of Cores:          2
    L2 Cache (per processor):          4 MB
    Memory:          4 GB
    Bus Speed:          800 MHz

    I don't think you will be able to upgrade to CS5 as it is not for sale thru Adobe.  I don't think anyone outside of Adobe sells upgrades.  Thru Adobe you would have to purchase a full version of CS6 (or subscribe to the CLoud)... there is no upgrade path from CS2 to CS6

  • 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.

  • Why am I having performance Issues with an upgrade from CS2 to CS5.5?

    I am struggling hard with an upgrade from InDesign CS2 to CS5.5 (part of CS5.5 Design Standard)
    There is a very slow response when trying to produce a 45 page document which needs many .jpeg images inserting, sometimes up to six on each 3-column page. While InDesign behaves sort of normally on text only pages, it slows to a virtual standstill when on the pages with images. (But this is what its for and I didn't have this problem with CS2!!)
    Having read through some of the postings on this topic I have followed all the advice without success :-( 
    1) disable LSD in Preferences – Interface
    2) disable thumbnail display in Pages
    3) adjust view settings to Typical with Raster and Vector Images greyed out
    4) disable Save Preview Images with Documents
    5) check Links before opening documents
    7) switch Preflight off
    I shouldn't need to do all this should I???
    I am operating with the following:
    Packard Bell ixtreme M5740 64 bit
    Intel Core i5 CPU [email protected]
    4.0 GB RAM
    ATII Radeon HD5570 graphics card 2779 MB available memory, 1024MB dedicated
    plenty of free space – 274GB on c: drive and 296 GB on a D: drive
    My hardware conforms to/exceeds the Indesign recommended hardware spec. Oh yes I am working on my local drive and  I don't have these problems with Photoshop or Illustrator CS5.5.
    Has anyone an idea about what's going on?
    I've lost a good 6-8 hours so far trying to sort it out. Any help and observations will be gratefully received!

    Hi Peter
    Thanks - I've found that the files were marked as 'hidden' and thus by switching them on gain I was able to recreate the original location.  Regrettably this has had absolutely no effect on my problem. :-( 
    I have now created a  fresh document, studiously linking all my images properly  (similar number to a DK 'Eyewitness Travel Guide') and by the time I got halfway through its 80 pages, InDesign had slowed to a crawl - ie 15-20 seconds to respond to any command.  It is clearly doing something that it thinks necessary despite all the 'workarounds' people have suggested. Please please Adobe what's going on???

  • Upgrade from CS2 to CS5 multi-questions

    A few questions actually..
    I very recently just bought an upgrade from Photoshop CS2 to CS5. Everything went well but I don't understand a few, possibly trivial, things.
    During the installation process, I in no way had to supply information about my CS2 licence to prove that I even have it. How do you guys make sure that someone who doesn't own a previous version of Photoshop isn't saying that they want an upgrade, thus avoiding the full price of the product?
    Also, when you upgrade, does your old previous version license become deactivated? Are you suppossed to remove it from your computer or some other process?
    Lastly, when I downloaded the upgrade, I downloaded both CS5 for 32 and 64 bit by default as they were both there. Do I need both on my computer and what's the difference between using/having the two?
    I'm running Windows 7 Home Premium 64 bit to clarify.
    Thanks in advance!

    If you purchased and upgrade then it should ask for a qualifying serial number.  It is also possible you purchased an upsell which means you were basically given a copy of the full version at a discounted price.  The qualification process is done when you purchase the software.
    You can continue to use your CS2 license.  You can not however sell it as it is qualifying you to utilize CS5.
    For questions about 64-bit I would recommend reviewing http://blogs.adobe.com/scottbyer/2006/12/64_bitswhen.html

  • Upgrade from CS2 to CS5 will not connect to Elements 5.0 "catalogue" files.

    Until now, I have been seamlessly using CS2 as my Photoshop Editor which was accessed through the Photoshop Elements 5.0 Catalogue function. 
    Within the Elements catalogues, raw or processed photos were acquired to Photoshop CS2 by left clicking the drop down menu "Edit" > and then left clicking to select, "Edit with Photoshop".
    This no longer happens for the upgrade CS5.  How do I restore (re-appoint) CS5 as my external editor, still from within the drop down Edit menu in Elements 5.0?  Note: As the CS5 upgrade "glopped on" to the previous CS2 version, I cannot return to CS2 even if I wanted to -- (I don't).
    It must be something obvious that completely eludes me.

    Hi Noel,
    Went through the sequence in Elements as you suggested -- and was informed by the folllowing box:
    "You do not need to choose Photoshop or Photoshop Elements (dropped the suffixes in each case) as the other editor.Photoshop elements already supports using these editors from the Edit menu and Edit toolbar button."
    I tried going through Bridge, again as you suggested:  Bridge Label Preferences > File Type Associations .  However, nothing there to be found in the very extensive list. 
    I think the problem is access through elements. 
    It may be that I'll need to buy an Elements 9.0 upgrade to continue using the Elements catalog.   
    Thanks again for sharing your knowledge.

  • Format issue with transfer from Cs2 to Cs5.5

    I transferred my InDesign files from CS2 to a new computer with CS5.5 and the formatting is all off when attempting to print. All the print settings appear to be the same on both computers but the image in Cs5.5 is way over to the left and top side of the paper. Yikes! Any suggestions?

    Are you referring to a selection on the printer or on the InDesign page? Not clear. Thanks.

  • Adobe Jensen Pro from CS2 to CS5

    In Indesign CS2 one of the fonts was Adobe Jensen Pro, which I liked. Now in CS5 it seems not to be one of the Adobe fonts provided by the software. Can one transfer the font Adobe Jensen Pro from CS2 (running in a Windows machine) to CS5 (running on a Mac)? And if so, how?
    Many thanks for any help

    Many thanks for all the answers.
    When I first saw Peter Spier's answer, I thought that everything would be easy (I only needed to learn how to copy and install the font, which I still don't know how to do...). But it seems that there are licensing issues here, and I don't want to do anything ilegal!
    Let's see if I can add a bit more information. First, I have paid for the licenses for both versions, they are legally mine. I upgraded form CS2 (Windows XP version) to CS5 (Mac version). And I am running Windows XP (where Indesign CS2 is loaded) on the same  iMac that has Indesign CS5 on (I use Boot Camp to do that). Because it is BootCamp, I can only use one of the Indesign versions at a time. So the two licensed versions of Indesign are in the same computer, albeit under different operating systems. How does that affect the license issues?
    Many thanks again

  • Upgrading from CS3 to CS5 and changing PC

    I have CS3 Web premium running on Windows XP machine. I want to migrate to CS5 but also to migrate the desktop to Windows 7. Will I have to first re-install CS3 on the re-built machine and then upgrade to CS5 or is it just a case of deactivating CS3, installing CS5 and activating the new copy?

    No, you don't have to install CS3 to use the CS5 upgrade. Have the disks and serial numbers handy.
    If you're removing CS3 from another PC then deactivate it first.
    Finally, if there's any chance you'll need CS3, then install it on the new Win 7 machine. It will run just fine.
    I have CS3, CS4 and several CS5 apps all running quite nicely on Win 7 Ultimate 64 bit.

  • Upgrade from CS2 to CS5?

    I just upgraded to a new Intel-based Mac Pro after my old 2006 Pro PPC bit the dust. I know I cannot run CS2 on the new machine, and was pricing out the replacement software.
    I cannot find on the Adobe site if I can use my old CS2 license (it is Design Premium) to apply toward purchasing the CS5 upgrade. And also looking at the new software out there, for those running OSX 10.7 what has your experience been with Lion and CS5?
    Thanks in advance for your advice and thoughts.

    CS5 is no longer available. You'll need to upgrade to CS5.5.
    Here's the CS2 to CS5.5 Design Premium Upgrade:http://amzn.to/kZOsu7
    Your timing is pretty good. CS2 is the earliest version eligible for upgrade pricing. Should the current policy hold, you'll be out in the cold when the next version ships.

  • Upgrade from CS2 to CS5 leaves CS2 applications

    Is it normal for a CS2 to CS5 upgrade to leave all the CS2 and Studio 8 apps installed?  Be nice to buy back some space but I don't want to mess things up.
    Tom

    Thanks.
    So, like me, you think the old versions should have been deleted by the install.
    It turns out Acrobat (9 Pro) is installed separately in CS5 (separate DVD, separate license code) and all previous versions of Acrobat had to be deleted before installing.

  • Hi transferring data from old to new and it is stuck on 1 min remaining for 1.5 days now.  any ideas

    transferring data from old to new and stuck on one min remaining for 1.5 days.  any ideas

    If you have already tried restarting the process and it continues to stall out, the only way to do it is through target disk mode. Because USB C is so new there is not an official way to do it. If you take it into an Apple Store they should transfer your data for free.

  • Upagrading from CS2 to CS5.5 Design Standard

    I'm here for some re-assurance and hand-holding really, as these new style installations seem to get more complicated despite all the unconvincing blurb about how easy it is.
    I've ordered CS5.5 upgrade - at last - because
    a) CS2 (especially Illustrator) on Win7 32 is a bit clunky to say the least;
    c) I'm struggling to open/edit files from newer versions; and
    b) Adobe made me an offer of 20% off which I couldn't refuse.  (CS5.5 for £444 + VAT is excellent value.)
    The disks should arrive early next week from Adobe in Dublin, having probably shared a ferry boat with a dozen 30,000 litre articulated tankers full of Guinness.
    I guess it's just a matter of inserting them one by one, and I expect it'll be the usual Adobe convention of checking the existing licence number (from the installed apps or their installation disk?) and installing a new version along side the old. Am I correct?
    I see there are lots of thread about what happens when the new CS5.5 app opens the old style files, so I'll check them out in due course.
    Iechyd da!
    John.

    Of course file associations will be adjusted to point to the latest version.
