Has Adobe disabled my Photo DeLuxe 2.0?

No sooner do I consent to a free Abobe update that appears as a pop-up on my computer, than my Photo Deluxe 2.0 ceases to be able to locate various types of files and open them.  Jpeg files can't be opened.  The error message says the app can't find the file I've selected.  I have reloaded the app using the disk and re-registered but this has not solved the problem.

What system are you on? Sounds like your update seriously busted up something, but the software being so old, it will be difficult for anyone to provide assistance since most of us don't even remember. It might be a lot easier and less painful to use a free image viewer like IrfanView or get Photoshop Elements than work out potential technical issues that are quite elusive. As a start, you might try to reinstall once more, but making sure to run with administrative privileges...

  • Adobe photo deluxe 3.0 and Vista compatibility

    I recently upgraded to Windows Vista. Adobe Photoshop 3.0 was installed on my prior Windows XP version but did not transfer over to Vista so many of my photos on my hard drive I cannot open.
    #1: Is there driver software that I can download so that I can install Adobe 3 or do I have to buy new Adobe software.
    #2: If I do have to buy new software, will I beable to open the pictures that I cannot open.
    Please and thank you.

    Photo Deluxe is NOT the same as Photoshop.
    And there is no such thing as "Adobe 3". Adobe is the name of the company which creates many different software titles, each of which has their own specific name.
    Which software EXACTLY do you currently have?
    The details are important, otherwise, discussions aren't much more than spinning tires and slinging dirt.

  • I'm getting the error message "Photos folder syncing has been disabled for the iPhone my iPhone because the folder "Pictures" cannot be found."

    I'm getting the error message "Photos folder syncing has been disabled for the iPhone <my iPhone> because the folder "Pictures" cannot be found." lately.
    Normally, all I do with photos is move them from my iPhone to my computer's (Windows 7) hard drive. I do this by connecting the iPhone with the cable, a box pops up on the screen asking me what I want to do, and I choose "Import pictures and videos". I've previously selected the "delete photos from the device after move" option (or however it's worded...), simply because I don't want this device to fill up with photos.
    Lately, it has been importing the photos fine, but it won't delete them from the iPhone. This used to work just fine, now it doesn't work and I don't know what changed, if anything. In iTunes, I get the error message I list at the beginning of this message.
    How do I fix this?

    Hi there scarbo59,
    You mentioned that you are still able to import without issues, but you may still want to run through the troubleshooting steps outlined in the article below.

  • I'm new to the whole thing of forums, so I apologize if I'm doing this wrong . . .  I need help on with an old version of Adobe Photo Deluxe 2

    I have the disc for Adobe Photo Deluxe 2 --- I know it is a very old program, but it does what I need to do in a very easy way.  I have tried downloading PhotoShop Album starter edition and Adobe Photoshop Elments version 7 - and they just don't do what I need as easily - or I can't figure it out.  Anyhow, I'm using vista on a new machine and cannot run Adobe Photo Deluxe 2 - any help to get this program running would be greatly appreciated.  I'm mainly using it to fix and edit clip art for a church newsletter.  So I really don't have a lot of money (like none) to spend on buying a new program that still won't do what I need it to do.  Thanks for any and all help on this issue.

    First use JPanel not Panel.
    Panel panels[]=new Panel[4];becomes
    JPanel panels[]=new JPanel[4];Then refactor your code so that you use arrays correctly:
    panels=new Panel();
    panels.setLayout(new FlowLayout(FlowLayout.LEFT));becomes
    panels=new JPanel();
    panels[i].setLayout(new FlowLayout(FlowLayout.LEFT));
    I did the above changes to your code and it worked fine.

  • Adobe Photo Deluxe 2 won't load photo from scanner

    I have been using APD2 with my scanner and as stand-alone for a long time. Recently, it stopped accepting the scanner files - something about not recognizing the file type or extension. What can be done on this?
    Also after loading and editing a photo file from My Documents, I tried to export it back to My Documents as JPG file. APD2 abruptly shut down - my edited file lost. Help on this also, please.

    Look at your scanner preferences.  For some reason, it has decided to save your scanned documents in a format that Photo Deluxe doesn't recognize. 
    If the scanner preference insists that it is saving the scanned documents in a common format - like jpg or TIFF, then change the preference into something else, wait a second, and then change it back to jpg or TIFF.  This would force the application to re-write all of the preferences back to your hard drive.  This can help you if the scanner preference is "slightly" corrupted.
    I'm not familiar with Photo Deluxe, so the following might not make sense.  I'd save the next scanned file to a folder, or to the desktop, so I could actually see what file extension is being added by the scanner.  Then I'd tell Photo Deluxe to import the file.  Making this a two-step process allows you to determine where the problem is.
    It's conceivable - but highly unlikely - that your copy of Photo Deluxe has become very slightly corrupted, and really can't recognize jpg or TIFF files.  In such an unlikely case, you just would have to delete it and re-install it from your master disks.

  • Photos stream has been disabled after last update

  • Ever since the update of 3.6.8 I am unable to use Adobe Flash. It says the plug in has been disabled. I have the newest update for Adobe. Please help.

    I am operating Windows XP on my laptop. Firefox 3.5 was working fine until I upgraded to Firefox 3.6.8, ever since then all websites that have streaming video the same screen tells me my plug in has been disabled. I also have Quicktime installed and DivX.

    Firefox recently split off a portion of the program used to run Flash and some other plugins into a new program named plugin-container.exe. If you have firewall software that tracks permissions for different programs, then it might be blocked.

    1)
    Do not click 'run' after unzipping. Find the contents that are unzipped. Right-click on the setup.exe and choose to 'run as administrator'.
    2)
    When asked for a destination directory, use this:
    C:\progra~2\deluxe\

  • Photo Deluxe 2.0

    Is there anyway Photo Deluxe 2.0 can be made compatible with Windows 7 or above?  There are no longer updates or support for Windows XP and that is the program that many of us used to run 2.0  It's such a perfect and easy photo editing program for the amateur and older adult.  Nothing else out there comes close to 2.0 and from what I've read on the Internet, there are plenty of people that want to continue using it, but no longer can.
    Thank-you for any feedback!

    Unfortunately you seem to be lost in the maze of Adobe forums. I don't even think there's any way to find out any information for anything as old as Photo Deluxe. Sorry, but it's time to move on to something a bit more 21st century. There are scores of photo apps including many that are free.

    Since this has nothing to do with Adobe Digital Publishing Suite, I'm going to lock this thread.

  • Comparison between Photo Deluxe Bus. Edition and current Photoshop programs?

    I'm still using Photo Deluxe with Windows XP, and I know the XP emulator on Windows 7 Pro should allow PD to still work, but the next OS may not.
    Can someone who's familiar with Adobe Photo Deluxe Business Edition and Photoshop tell me what current version of Photoshop will give me the same abilities as Photo Deluxe Business Edition did?  (Or will come the closest.)
    If anything possible in Photo Deluxe just CAN'T be done with current Photoshop programs, could you also specify what those lost features would be?

    Perhaps this will be helpful from an old thread on web. 
    "I transitioned from Deluxe 2 to Photoshop Elements (V. 1 and now 2) last year. I do the same kind of projects as you and really enjoy using Elements. Elements is much closer to providing the same functionality as the pricier Photoshop. The interface has less obnoxious "guide me" kinds of presentations that mar Deluxe and allows you to control the amount of application-provided help to a greater degree than with Deluxe. The only thing Elements lacks that Photoshop offers are color management and separation functions for commercial printing.
    Elements also has some tricks that Photoshop doesn't, especially the Photomerge feature. This lets you stitch (or rather blend) two or more images into one. I use it a lot in scanning items that are larger than my scanner window. Also great for panoramic shots and artsy collages.
    Opinion: Elements is far superior to Deluxe. The clone tool alone is worth the new software."
    Note:  Believe they are now on Photoshop Elements 11, so should be even better.    Still under $100 I believe.

  • How can I disable the Photos app from automatically running when I plug in my iPhone?

    How can I disable the Photos app from automatically running when I plug in my iPhone?
    I have no intention of ever using Photos, in fact, having to abandon Aperture takes me one step close to moving back to Windows, but I digress.
    I just want to NOT have to kill the Photos app every time I plug in my phone.
    Thanks.

    I am still seeing the option Image Capture, like shown in the screenshot that Rysz posted.   But it is another example of the hide-and-seek Apple likes to play with us.
    The option has to be set for each device individually. With the device connected to USB, you have to click the tiny disclosure triangle in the lower left corner of the sidebar to reveal the option.
    I was perfectly happy with the program I paid for (Aperture), and now to maintain the functionality I have to pay for another application (LightRoom) to get the functionality that I paid for in Aperture.
    Aperture 3.6 is working well with Yosemite. I will use it, as long as I have a Mac, that will run Yosemite or a compatible system.
    Have you looked at Capture One?  It looks much more similar to Aperture than Lightroom.

  • Rreading and writing this file's metadata (xmp) has been disabled. Renders unplayable/corrupted files

    Hi everyone,
    I've been using Premiere Pro CC for a while now, as I have a YouTube channel, and I've rendered, exported and edited around a dozen different videos, and have had no issues until now. I haven't done anything to my settings, but randomly, I am now unable to export any videos. I've tried exporting multiple times, using different formats, and I still get the same error:
         File importer detected an inconsistency in the file structure of [FILE NAME]. Reading and writing this file’s metadata (XMP) has been disabled.
    I've looked around, and I've seen just about no help in fixing the issue, so I was hoping that someone could help me out.
    Some of my computer details are:
    Premiere Pro CC
    Toshiba Z10T
    Windows 8.1
    Hopefully that's enough to go by
    Thanks guys

    After moving LR3.5 and catalogs to a new computer running Windows 7 and LR from an XP system, I suddenly had 6400 files with exclamation points--failure to synch metadata or similar warnings on every file.  If I thought I had one without the error, if I clicked on it--there error showed up.    It was very frustrating and I was wondering if I was going to have to keep my old computer forever.
    After I searched for a couple of hours and found that there have been several discussions concerning failures to sync xmp sidecar files and failures to write metadata on this forum and others.  Some of the postings had angry rants against Adobe.  On my system, it was not Adobe that should be blamed, it was Microsoft:
    On one of the Adobe threads, I noticed a post that the person had multiple external drives and the problem did not show itself on one drive.  The person said that changing the permissions on the other hard drives solved the problem.   I tried this and it worked for me.  I did not have this problem with this same drive on my XP system.  I will try to find that other forum and thank the person who gave me the solution.

  • I own LR and Develop module has been disabled---asking for me to renew membership??

    I purchased Lightroom in 2013 (not Creative Cloud subscription). I recently purchased a new computer and downloaded LR to that one. I have LR registered under my Adobe ID and its listed under "products" that I own, I'm signed into LR with my Adobe ID on my desktop. When I downloaded the program, I used my key I received when I purchased the program to get it up and running. Today I tried going into the Develop module and it says that it has been disabled and to renew my membership to get access to the Develop module again. I do not have the CC subscription...I own it. SOOO, I've been searching and trying to follow Adobe troubleshooting for a few hours and now I've decided to see if I can just get the answer here. Where can I input my key in the program on the desktop or get it to see that I OWN the program and do not need to purchase the membership? On my desktop CC icon, it says that my "trial version" has expired.
    Thanks in advance!

    LR Develop module shows "Disabled.Please renew your membership".You can reinstall the creative cloud application from the below link and then sign in with your Adobe ID(email address registered with Adobe)

  • HT1212 my i pad has become disabled. it has been said i will have to wipe out everything, which will mean i will lose all of my pictures. there must be another way i can open my i pad!!! I am not able to connect to i tunes which was another choice.

    i need help with my i pad which has become disabled. the screen is saying i have to connect with i tunes but that is not possible. i don't want to wipe everything out and lose my pictures. please tell me there is another way to open up my i pad without losing my pictures. thanks for any help!

    Sorry, but you'll have to restore it.  And if it's running iOS 7 with Find My iPad enabled, you'll have to force it into recovery mode in order to restore it, as explained here: http://support.apple.com/kb/ht1808.
    If you have a backup to restore from, that will include your camera roll photos.

  • Why has my Develop Module has been disabled?

    I have just uploaded some photos and find everything works except the develop module which has been disabled.
    It says "Please renew your membership to reactivate the Develop module".
    There are no instructions on how to do this or explanation.
    I purchased LR5 in July 2014 and am totally unaware of a Membership arrangement.
    Please can anyone explain this and what I have to do?

    Hi Jim
    Sorry to interrupt your Christmas but thanks a lot for your help.
    It was a bit of a shock when it happened.
    July 22 this year (5 months) was the first time I purchased LR and I didn't know about CC then and I don't use it.
    I have followed your instructions and lo and behold it worked perfectly. Even all my plug-ins are still there.
    Let's hope it keeps working!!!
    Enjoy the rest of your holiday and have a Happy New Year.
    regards
    James
