Help feature for CS2

I have used the 'help' feature for my CS2 applications successfully for the past two years. Now, for some reason I can no longer access 'help' in any of the CS2 applications. Do I need to reinstall 'help' or ???

Peter,
Thank you for your response.
I went to the above web site per your insertion. I followed the "Tech Note" instructions for reactivating the 'help' feature of my CS2 applications.
1. I did verify that the Help content files do exist on my computer as listed (Exception - I do not have InCopy 4.0_en-us-zip.)
2. I followed steps 2 and 3 for deleting the appropriate files.
3. In manually launching the Adobe Help Center I found the file ahc (with no exe extension) The file did have a shadowy ? on it. The files seemed to be relaunching ok. but --------
4. I opened Photoshop and when I clicked on 'help' I received the following error messages: 'Model subsystem returned this error 1034. then 'The instruction at "0X00864a4d" referenced memory at "0X00f50608". The memory could not be "written". Click ok to terminate the program.

Help required for CS2...

I have CS2, and prior to today all jpegs would open in Photoshop from Bridge. Now they open in Illustrator. Right-clicking on the jpeg shows the 'open with' command, but Photoshop is not listed - even though I have it open! Also, the double click on RAW files is not working in Bridge, so it seems I have to use the taskbar. I'm stumped, as all else seems to be okay. Can anyone give me guidance?
Thanks in advance...

Check your file associations in the Bridge preferences.

Old school with CS2. Haven't used in a while and am unable to use the program as it says my serial number is invalid. Customer service tells me the server for CS2 has been shut down. Then they sent me here for help. Does anyone have any advice?

I don't have a clue what I am doing with this. Here is my discussion with Customer Service:
Naresh: Hello! Welcome to Adobe Customer Service.
Naresh: Hi Mary.
Naresh: I understand you have been getting invalid serial number, am I right?
Mary Vance: Hi
Mary Vance: yes
Naresh: Please provide me with the serial number, Mary.
Mary Vance: I provided my serial number here
Naresh: Thank you for the serial number.
Naresh: Please allow me 2-3 minutes while I check your serial number.
Mary Vance: no problem
Naresh: Thank you.
Naresh: Thank you for being online.
Naresh: I would like to inform you that the server for CS2 products have been shut down by adobe since then you are not able to install the product.
Naresh: However, I will provide you the link to download CS2 application. Please visit the following link.
Mary Vance: will this allow me to reinstall Photoshop?
Naresh: Yes, Mary.
Mary Vance: ok...what is that link?
Naresh: Please clcik here to download.
Mary Vance: thank you....trying it now
Naresh: You are welcome.
Naresh: I will also provide you the link for further information regarding the installation of CS2 products.
Mary Vance: the download doesn't have anything regarding installation
Naresh: Please click for the information.
Naresh: I am sorry for providing wrong link.
Naresh: Please click here to download.
Naresh: The 3rd link is for the download of CS2 Photoshop.
Naresh: Were you able to view the download link, Mary?
Mary Vance: what file in that download is supposed to help me?
Mary Vance: the first and 3rd link were the same
Mary Vance: when trying to load from my software, I get the message saying my serial number is not valid. All I need is a serial number that works. Is that going to be possible?
Naresh: Mary, Adobe has disabled the activation server for CS2 applications, including Acrobat 7 and Audition 3, because of a technical issue.
Naresh: So you will have to download the software from the above link.
Naresh: May I know in what OS you are trying to install the software?
Mary Vance: the link sends me to a CS2 help package
Mary Vance: windows 7
Naresh: I am sorry you will not be able to install the CS2 application on Windows 7 since it does not support CS2 version.
Mary Vance: I have had on here for a few years...why all of a sudden would it not work? Illustrator is fine.
Naresh: Okay.
Naresh: You can try downloading the software.
Mary Vance: was the original link that you sent me suppose to allow me to download Photoshop?
Mary Vance: I did try and got the message that the serial number is invalid. Is there any way to get around this or should I throw it away?
Naresh: May I know whether you uninstalled the product.
Naresh: ?
Mary Vance: I did uninstall Photoshop only. Then I tried reinstalling Photoshop only and got the message about the serial number.
Naresh: I check and see that it seems to be a technical issue, I request you to please post your query to the forums so that you will get the resolution from our expertise and I'll provide you the link to visit the forums.
Naresh: Please click here to visit the forums.
Mary Vance: I guess I will try that.
Naresh: Yes, please.
Naresh: Is there anything else I can help you with?
Mary Vance: I don't see where you helped me with this yet, so I guess not!
Naresh: I am sorry for the inconvenience.
Naresh: Thank you for contacting Adobe. We are available 7 days a week, 24 hours a day. Goodbye!
Any help would be appreciated.

CS2 is very old and reached its "end of life" a while back. So probably won't run on modern operating systems. If you can still run it, you'll need to uninstall what you have and re-install with the download link below to activate it.

I have tried downloading photoshop cs2 and cs4 on a new computer. I have the disc available for cs2 and the serial number for cs4. They are both registered in my name. I need help doing a download.

I have tried downloading photoshop cs2 and cs4 on a new computer. I have the disc available for cs2 and the serial number for cs4. They are both registered in my name. I need help doing a download. I was able to get part way through cs4, it showed up in my downloads but never got as far in the process as to ask for serial numbers. I tried with cs2 and I got an error message that some bit of information was incorrect. I currently have both downloaded on two other lap tops I own. One is operational and one is dead. I cannot access the dead one to remove the program. Thank you in advance for any assistance.

For CS2 you will need to download a special new version

Help File for Photoshop CS2 Missing

When I click on the "help" button in the tool bar I get the help center. The pull down menu does not have Photoshop CS2, but does have most of my other Adobe products. The "pointer" that takes me to the on-line help for CS2 is either corrupted or missing. How do I restore my help?

Error when compiling AppleScript for CS2, need help

I've recently started learning AppleScript, and while I'm no stranger to programming I'm a little lost when it comes to errors like this one. I have both InDesign CS2 and InDesign CS3 installed so I'm not sure if my problem is caused by that, they were installed before I started working on this mac. I've also been recently upgraded from Tiger to Leopard, in case that might be a probable cause.
Basically, my problem stems from this:
tell application "Adobe InDesign CS2"
    get active document
end tell
When I try to compile this I get a Syntax Error that says "Expected end of line but found class name." and highlights "document". I've also had problems trying to use things like "page 1" or "view preferences" with similar errors. With the case of things like "page 1" I've had to replace it with "item 1 of pages" to get it to compile.
If I change it to "Adobe InDesign CS3" it works fine, but I need to compile for CS2 for backwards compatability. Strangely, this method works:
set indesign to application "Adobe InDesign CS2"
tell indesign
    using terms from application "Adobe InDesign CS3"
        get active document
    end using terms from
end tell
Does this mean my CS2 dictionary is broken? I can view it fine from the Script Editor, and I've seen things like "active document" used in example scripts, so this syntax error is confusing me.

I'm not sure why you're getting that error, but a couple of things:
Using "document 1" instead of "active document" is not a bad habit,
because there are cases where active document doesn't work.
When you compile the scripts, the version is somewhat irrelevant -- when
you go to run them, they look for a running application of the same creator
code, and use that. It's a bit like when you double-click on a document in
the Finder -- it doesn't matter what version of ID you made it in, it will
try to open in whatever version is running first.

New Features for UPK with PeopleTools 8.53 and PeopleSoft 9.2

Hello,
does anyone know, where I can find information about the effect or new features PeopleTools 8.53 and PeopleSoft 9.2 have especially for UPK 11.0.0?
I've searched a lot, but couldn't find any information of new features or changed integration of UPK in PeopleSoft according to the Upgrade.
Thanks for your help.

Support for PeopleTools 8.53 and PeopleSoft 9.2 are planned for UPK 11.1 ESP 2.
Best regards,

Are there any amazing features for people with disabilities not available in Windows?

I do volunteer work at a group in Tokyo which provides English conversation and light computer lessons for people with various kinds of disabilities on Sundays at a community center.
They want me to come in on Sundays for a few months and teach people - such as their other teachers - how to use Apple computers. And they bought all the teachers, including me, new MacBook Airs or MacBook Pros.
The thing is, these people are basically all Windows users, and they seem, somehow, to use their Windows machines just fine with varying disabilities. In particular, some portion of the group are blind. There is a Mac enthusiast who has gotten it into his mind that he wants more of his fellow members using Macs, rather than Windows, so he is behind this new project.
I know there are "accessibility features" for the Mac, though I've not really made use of them myself except for some light testing so far to see that they work.
My question is "why Mac?" I am a Mac user myself, and I enjoy using a Mac. But I think it is probably a matter of what you are used to. If these people are happy using their Windows machines I don't know of anything I can say to make them want to switch. So I'm not sure how practical or productive the entire plan is, though I'm happy to try to help out, and I enjoy working with the group.
I can certainly teach these people, who are not familiar with Macs, how to use them. I've been using Macs for years and years.
But is there anything I can say about why Mac features for people with disabilities are better than Windows features? Any examples anybody can point me to?
Like I said, I'm happy to go over there on Sundays and help out and bring my new MacBook Pro over and hook it up to the projector and point out interesting things you can do on the Mac and answer questions.
But the big question that I can't answer is, "Are there benefits to using a Mac over Windows for people with disabilities?" If anybody knows of any, please let me know! I don't want the person promoting this project to feel it was a waste at all. I think basically he feels left out being basically the only Mac user there and wants to generate more of a circle of supportive people around him who are Mac users since he himself is losing his sight. So if there are factual, practical reasons for "Why Mac for people with disabilities" I would like to explain them.
Thanks,
Doug

Hi Doug
It sounds like you are doing a good job with your technology students. I've been an Apple Mac user for well over 30 years and occasionally had to use Windows when using MS Access. To my mind, the Mac is much easier to use from the "Starting Grid" than Windows. And having worked in a University with both platforms, the cult is fairly evenly balanced. However, the current generations of Apple Tablets are infinately easier to understand than OSX or Win7/8. I think there is an old saying here which has many merits "If it ain't broke" don't try and fix it". If your students are learning to understand Windows and are coping with it, the confusion of teaching them Mac, might actually give yourself a potential nightmare scenario. Certainly Microsoft with Windows 8, is trying to bring the latest operating system into the 21st Century, and whilst it wouldn't suit me, why create a dilemma for yourself when they seem to be happy with what they've got.
In terms of your final paragraph, and reaching for the proverbial glass ball, I can see a future of tablets gaining even more popularity, and with the likes of Siri, which is in part available now on the iPhone. Surely this is the path of the future where one can talk to the device and gain an immediate response. Even Steve Wozniak hinted at this in a television interview on BBC's Click television programme. I'm sorry there's no definitive answer to your question, but hats off to Gene Roddenberry whose imagination has given inspiration to the makers of our devices that has created a communications world and is infinately getting closer to the audience you are trying to reach out to.

Is there still any hope to have virtualization feature for my compaq 620 energy star notebook?

Dear HP Support,
it looks like that the motherboard of my compaq 620 energy star notebook doesn't support virtualization technology, even though replace the processor with one with virtualization feature, my notebook still can't have virtualization feature. moreover it is said the CPU socket type of notebook is soldiered to the motherboard, so the processor of notebook can't be replaced. if this is the case, it seems that i can't replace the processor of my notebook.
am i correct? is there still any hope to have virtualization feature for my compaq 620 energy star notebook?
thanks,
q.s.
This question was solved.
View Solution.

The processor can be upgraded; it is socketed. However, virtualization must be implemented in the motherboard and BIOS and without that, upgrading the processor will do no good. Which processor do you have?
Here is the Service Manual:
Manual
See page 120....virtualization is possible on some models but I am going to assume only the models with a Core2 Duo processor. Celeron and Pentium Dual models use a different chipset on the motherboard so even if you put in a Virtualization capable CPU it would not work.

New feature for Preview - Where to submit?

I have a thought for a new feature for Preview that I wonder how many people would say it is worth submitting to Apple, and if so, then where and how do I send it to them?
The problem I face is that I get a lot of PDF forms off websites (usually financially related) that are not created with proper form fields, so I am forced to print the form off and use my "chicken scribble" handwriting to fill it in, then I usually try to email it back, but sometimes I have to fax or mail it.
Well, the thought I had was, "Why can't I use Preview to select a font, click on the page with the Text tool and start typing in what I need?"
Ideally it would be good to be able to save the document with your "overtyping", but I understand that some PDF files are protected, so how about saving just the stuff I have added as to a PDF file that when I open that, it opens the original (blank) form as well?
Surely I'm not the only one that has to fill in PDF forms. Anyone else think this is a worthy addition to Previews already good capabilities?
If so, how do I pass this idea onto someone that cares?
Cheers,
Mark

Welcome to the Forums!
It is a good suggestion. FYI, Acrobat Professional can do this (not the free reader, of course).
Thanks also for understanding that this is not the place for suggestions to Apple!
There's no specific feedback page for Preview, so you should submit to the general OS X feedback page.
Links to other feedback pages (for your future ideas) are here.
Hope this helps...
