Help installing Photoshop CS4 on aWin 8.1

I have just received my new HP laptop with Windows 8.1
I have installed Photoshop CS4, which does work BUT it causes the store and other apps to not work.
Is thee some work around I can use?  Will CS4 actually work with Win8.1 ??
Thanks.

After I install CS4 all programs still work right.  But the Windows Apps Store and all apps shown do not work.  If I click on the Store app it appears to try to start the app but after a few seconds the screen returns to where it ws before I clickec on the Store app.
I have re-installed windows twice now since that was the only way I could get the store and apps back working.  I have contacted the HP manufacturer and they did send me a process to follow to try to correct the installation problem, but that never solved the problem.

  • I have Creative Suite 3 Master Collection. Am trying to install Photoshop CS4 upgrade. It will not accept any of the serial numbers from my Creative Suite 3 Master Collection. The upgrade is for Photoshop CS 4 only

      Need help installing Photoshop CS4 upgrade. I have Adobe Creative Suite 3 Master Collection installed on my computer. When trying to install Photoshop CS 4 upgrade. I am ask for serial number of Photoshop CW, CS2, & CS3 I put in the serial number from my Creative Suite 3 Master Collection. None of which are accepted. What do I need to do to accomplish upgrade?

    When you purchase a Creative Suite collection, you can't run an upgrade on an individual product within the Suite. You have to upgrade the entire collection.
    You could purchase a copy of Photoshop CS6, or a subscription to Photoshop which can be as little as $9.99 with the Photography plan to the Creative Suite.
    Adobe no longer sells upgrades to CS3 or CS4.

  • Need help installing photoshop onto new computer.....

    Need some help installing photoshop onto my new computer. Way back when I was in college I purchased photoshop. It has worked fine for everything that I do, plus I know all the tricks to this particular version. It has only been installed on 2 computers before...both my own computers. Now we have a new computer because the last one broke & I haven't been able to download the program. I have the cd etc but wondering why I can't download it. Could it be because it is so old....?? It's Photoshop 4.0  I have several docs that I need to open but can't because they're in photoshop....ugh... Please someone help. Thanks!!

  • Im having trouble installing photoshop CS4.

    i deleted all my adobe products so i could reinstalled photoshop cs4 but now when i try to install photoshop cs4 i get this message and cant get rid of it..
    " Steup error "
    "Setup has encountered an error and cannot continue. Contact Adobe customer support for assistance."
    can sum1 help me plz!!

    The Adobe Cleanscript CS4 should take care of things. On the Premiere fora, we normally recommend that one run it several times, rebooting between each.
    Also, here is a general CHECKLIST for installing most Adobe programs.
    Good luck,

    Please do not use the post title to post the entire question (no offense, it just makes the forum look ugly). As for your question - you really did install it? I mean with serial and install disc? If so, the update would work, because it would find the proper install info. That not being the case, there are a few things that may be wrong:
    - due to you language settings, the installer cannot find the folder because it has a different name (though on Vista, that shouldn't be an issue)
    - at some point, you used the CS4 Clean Utility/ Script to remove install info
    - you are using a pirated copy that you may have bought on eBay or elsewhere that has a modified installer to circumvent licensing
    - you are using an unlicensed version a "friend" gave you and that never was installed, but merely copied to the harddrive
    That pretty much covers the immediate options, now it's up to you to tell us, which one may apply. Assuming, we are talking about perfectly legit software, re-installing it from the original media should take care of the problem. For illegal software, you should understand, that you are utterly on your own and nobody will help you, much less on the forums of the company producing the software.

  • I need to install photoshop cs4 extended from a disk to a new computer because my old computer had a hard drive crash. There is no serial number on the back of the case.  How can I obtain a usable serial number?

    I have to install Photoshop CS4 extended on a new computer from a disk because my old computer had a hard drive crash.  There is no serial number on the back of the case.  How can I obtain a usable serial number?

    Find your serial number quickly
    You can activate software without following up and registering it... at least that was the case in the past.  The serial number is normally located on the disc case or a box inside the main box.  If you did not purchase the disc from Adobe then it is possible you would have dealt with a redemption code, in which case it would have been up to you to keep a record of the serial number, especially if you did not follow up and register the software.

    Tina Hadley did you migrate/transfer your applications over to your new Macintosh?  If so this could cause problems with your serial number being recognized.  Please run the available uninstallers located in Applications/Utilities/Adobe Installers folder.  Once this is done you will also want to run the CC Cleaner Tool.  Details on the use of the CC Cleaner Tool can be found at Use the CC Cleaner Tool to solve installation problems | CC, CS3-CS6 - http://helpx.adobe.com/creative-suite/kb/cs5-cleaner-tool-installation-problems.html.

  • What has happened to "Help" in Photoshop CS4?

    When you click on "Help" in Photoshop CS4 it no longer opens a document with explanations of the functions of Photoshop. I'm trying to import a font into Photoshop.

    I am having the same issue with Photoshop/CS5!  Having been away from any Photoshop work since June, I just sat down to review how to edit text.  Boy am I pissed that I can't access the "user manual" help, which I have found to be some of the best software help out there!  The change must have happened in the last few months.
    What is EVEN WORSE is when I do click on any "text" articles found via search, they take me to a nearly BLANK screen!  The only things showing are a useless, tiny search box that doesn't work, and a survey window that pops up and says "How useful did you find this?"  UH, a nearly blank screen is NEVER useful - seriously?
    I'd love a link to CS5 Photoshop user manual so I can go back to getting exactly the information that has helped me in the past.
    BAD, BAD move, Adobe.  You software companies just can't leave well enough alone - you "broke" something that I thought was a very helpful feature.  It wasn't broke - why did you have to mess with it?
