Grayed out Photoshop CS2 on Creative Suite install disk

I had to uninstall Creative Suite CS2 because I wanted to try CS5.  Come to find out after a lot of frustration unable to do because I have a G5  that does not have an intell processor.  When I tried to reload the Creative Suite CS2 the Photoshop was grayed out.  Unable to click onto it to install.  Any suggestions?  I am a web and graphic desighner with no photoshop! UGH!  Please respond.  Thank you

If you find no other option, try cleaning up your machine and then run the installer again. Following kb will help you to cleanup your machine manually -

Or if you are able to run CS5 cleaner tool and you have *NO* other Creative Suite product installed. Click 'Clean all' button for CS3/CS4 and CS5. You can download the cleaner tool from the following location -

Also empty your trash before running the CS2 installer.

  • Can I upgrade from Photoshop CS2 to CS5 after installing Lion?

    Can I upgrade from Photoshop CS2 to CS5 after installing Lion?   Or should I have done it before installing Lion?

    I think you are missing my point.
    For the last many editions of the creative suite they have each been completely independent. There is no "going over a previous version. Each version stands on its own and is a clean install — as long as you haven't installed that specific version before.
    And "obsolete" is a pretty relative term. With products as complex as the creative suite there are often features (or even whole applications) that change between versions. Many people I know keep earlier versions around, just for that very reason.

  • Is there no upgrade path to Photoshop CS6 from Creative Suite 5 Design Premium?

    Is there no upgrade path to Photoshop CS6 from Creative Suite 5 Design Premium?

    Correct. The only upgrade from a Suite is to a Suite. You get a great price reduction by purchasing a suite, what you loose is the ability to upgrade any components individually.

  • Photoshop cs2 disc will not install

    I had Photoshop CS2 installed on my old iMac, which recently crashed, so I purchased a new MacBook Pro. I used Time Machine to transfer all my data from my 2006 iMac to my new MacBook Pro. Transfer of data was successful, except for Photoshop CS2, which was "X-ed" out and would not load when selected. So I took out my purchased Photoshop CS2 disc (which I bought new and still have the receipt for) and attempted to re-install, but with no luck. I removed all previous PS files like several forums recommended and attempted several more times to install PS via disc, but again, no luck. The Message I get is "The installation failed. The installer encountered an error that caused the installation to fail. Contact the software manufacturer for assistance." So I am contacting you for guidance on how to resolve this issue. I understand PS CS2 is no longer supported (I even downloaded the file from you site to install PS CS2 https://www.adobe.com/cfusion/entitlement/index.cfm?e=cs2%5Fdownloads but this was also unsuccessful), but I sure could use your help. Thank you.

    CS2 will only work on old PowerPC Macs. It isn't compatible with the Intel processor in new Macs. There is nothing you can do I'm afraid.

  • Adobe Creative Suite 4 Disk Doesn't Show All Applications for Install

    I've been using Creative Suite 4 (Web Premium). I had a licensing error that required me (apparently) to reinstall my Adobe Illustrator. So I uninstalled all my Adobe products (except Acrobat, which I bought separately).
    Now when I go to reinstall using the disk, none of the "main" applications (Illustrator, Photoshop, Dreamweaver) are shown under "Available Products" to install!!
    I've tried a bunch of different things, including trying to install in safe mode.
    Anyone have any ideas???

  • Extensions grayed out - Photoshop CC - Win7

    I had extensions, they worked. Now the folder is grayed out. However the extensions are in extension manager, they just don't seem to work.

    My garage used to have cars inside it, but strangely, although I can see the cars (when i look through the window) - when I try to use them, they become invisible.
    What kind of strange magic is adobe spinning?
    Updated Magicpicker Download Photoshop Color Wheel / Photoshop CS5 CS3 CS4 Panel plugin by Anastasiy for picking colors / MagicPicker / The … software.
    It worked well, but after I updated MagicPicker,  I went to PS CC to use it, and noted that the extension folder was grayed out - Indicating no extensions were available.
    I can see that the extensions are in the extension manager - but they just do not show up in PS anymore.
    I tried downloading another extension, different plug in from Adobe - I installed it, and it too didn't work. I have tried uninstalling all Adobe software and re-installing, I have run the adobe cleaning tool, but still no extensions available.

  • Why won't my Photoshop CS2 still open after installing CS4?

    Hi,
    I've just installed CS4 Design standard on my PC - alongside my existing CS2 installation, because I didn't want to uninstall CS2 until I'd spent time getting used to CS4.
    However, when I try to open images with Photoshop CS2, it's almost impossible to do so - CS4 Photoshop opens up instead. If I try to open an image using Bridge CS2, the only option is to open it with PS-CS4. Alternatively, if I right-click on the image in Windows Explorer and select 'Open with', my only option is PS-CS4 (Even if I select Browse at this point and navigate to the PS-CS2 exe, it still insists on opening PS-CS4.)
    The only way I can successfully open images in PS-CS2 is to open the application first, using the shortcut in the Start menu or Quick Launch, and then I have to use File>Open to open the image.
    Interestingly, I have no problems with InDesign - yes, ID-CS4 is the default if I double-click an ID file, but I can choose to use ID-CS2 by right clicking and selecting 'Open with'. Same goes for Illustrator.
    Has anyone else had this problem with Photoshop CS2 and been able to work around it?
    Thanks,
    Steven

  • Iphoto still grayed out after iphoto upgrade after mavericks install, what should I do?

    After upgrading to mavericks Iphoto was Grayed out. The computer Notified me that I would have to upgrade iphoto from 9.2.1 to to latest version.
    went to the mac app store, the upgrade page showed the iphoto upgrade, it downloaded and installed the upgrade but iphoto is still grayed out in the dock and in the applications folder. The mac app store shows the iphoto upgrade as being installed. whot should I do?

    First, make sure the new copy of iPhoto was not installed as a separate icon in your Applications folder.
    If that's not the case, try launching it anyway; I've seen instances where the icon fails to update until the associated application is launched for the first time.

  • Corel Sketchpad came with my Adobe Photoshop 5.5 Creative Suite: question

    Hi,
    I purchased Adobe Photoshop CS 5.5 a few years ago and it came with Corel Painter Sketchpad.
    I have been using the sketchpad once in a while since then.
    Recently I could not see the media settings in the Sketchpad so I decided to update the program, but instead, I upgraded it without realising it. As a result, Corel upgraded it for me and gave me one month trial and then I would have to buy the program. This program came together with Photoshop CS 5.5 in 2012 and I had it since then.
    I would like to ask you very much to update my Corel Sketchpad so I can use it as I was before since it came with my Adobe Photoshop Creative Suite.
    Thank you so very much,
    Georgeta
    954-643-5316

    Adobe and Corel are totally separate companies.
    Adobe would never bundle software for a competitor.
    Maybe you misunderstood something  and bought from someplace that sold these separate products together in a bundle.
    If you have a problem with Corel Sketchpad you need to talk to Corel.
    Adobe has nothing to do with Corel.
    By the way, the vast majority of people in this forum are users just like yourself.
    This is not a way to contact Adobe. (Nor Corel either)
    Also, not a good idea to add your phone #.
    On the internet bots regularly harvest phone #s, email addresses, etc. You might be setting youself up for a torrent of unsolicited phone calls.

  • HELP !!!! Can you upgrade to photoshop sc5 from creative suite 3?

    I bought adobe creative suite 3 like 2 years ago. I just bought a new mac and want to upgrade my photoshop that came in the creative suite from cs3 to cs5. I tried to do it but it would not let me and gave me an error. I started doing some research and am wondering if I need to upgrade my whole creative suite from 3 to 5, Or can I just up grade my photoshop cs3 with photoshop cs5?
