How can I get Photoshop CS4 to open?

I just got the Adobe Production Suite CS4 Student Edition, I installed it onto my computer (Windows XP Media Center Edition), All of my programs run great except for Photoshop. When I try to open Photoshop it gets to the building twain portioin of the startup and then an error pops up stating that Photoshop has encountered a problem and needs to close, so I have yet to succesfully open photoshop, how might I fix this problem?
P.S. I have already installed the Patch 11.01 and i have alreadey updated my graphics card.

Try disabling the Twain plug-in by placing a Tilde (~) in front of it.
It's in C:\Program Files\Adobe\Adobe Photoshop CS4\Plug-Ins\Import-Export

How can I get photoshop elements to open my nef images?

How can I get photoshop elements to open my nef images?

The D3200 requires at least ACR 7.1, which isn't compatible with any version of PSE prior to PSE 11, so no, you can't do this directly in PSE 9.
You could upgrade PSE, use the Nikon software to convert the files and then open the resulting images into PSE for further editing, or download the free Adobe DNG converter to convert your NEFs to DNG files that your version of PSE can understand.

How can I get Photoshop CS4 to work now that I have CS6 (which I dislike for many reasons), on the s

I have recently purchased CS6 Mac, and now that it's on my computer CS4 won't work. Adobe told me to post the question on this forum because they refuse to provide any tech support for CS4 or earlier versions of PS now that 6 is out.
Also, they won't provide any help regarding the fact that all my images from CS4 open at 25% instead of 100% which they did in CS4. They say I just have to highlight the 25 and type in 100. Needless to say that is absurd and a big time waster.
Any help is appreciated. OS mountain lion on a mac mini, also new.
Thanks,

HI and thank you both for your help. Here is the screen shot. I don't know if you can see that there is actually an image open. It's a business card so it's small to begin with, but this is NOT how things opened in CS4.
The percentage in the lower left cannot be seen because the window is too large and even though I quite the program, it still opened as large as when I closed it. But it was something like .38%
How do I get it back to normal working size?
Another thing I dislike is that when I do a screen shot there is no way to save it without first clicking the red 'close this' button and then reopening it and using 'save as' to type in the correct name. If I use command s I just get 'untitled with a number'. It's a lot of unnecessary steps. Also, is there no other way to save a screen shot other than as a tif and then reopening it to save it as a jpg?
The cyan lines seemed to have disappeared when opening the other images. This version is making me nuts. That's why I want my CS4 back and operational.
ALSO, I want my brushes that I have collected over the years... they didn't make it over from the dying Mac Pro to this Mac Mini. They are all in CS4. How do I do that?
That's a good beginning for why I don't like it.
Thank you,
bonnie

How can I get Bridge CS4 to open DNG automatically in ACR?

I just did a reformat, and I used to be able to open DNG's in ACR just by double clicking them, but I can't figure out what setting that was. It was nice to avoid having to right click and select Open in Camera Raw, and just press enter. Does anyone know how I managed to set that last time?

o sh**, how could I have missed something so simple! I suppose because I was looking in file type associations... thx

Hello, I have been experiencing similar problems and followed the suggestion and yes, the raw icon comes up as illustrated but there is nothing there to indicate any further action can be taken. So I am presuming that means it is installed and no further action required?
Here's my problem: I have had no problems getting my pics into my organiser in Elements 12 from either my Nikon D7100 or my Fujifilm X100S - until last week. Suddenly when they are imported all I see is the timer icons but they don't open to let me view them. If I click on one it will open and I can then edit it but it will not save an image onto the grid for me to view so it's really frustrating not being able to view all my photos in order to decide what to edit and compare them.
Here's what action I've taken so far - restarted the computer (endlessly), checked the updates and installed them, checked I have the latest raw plug in (I do) and gone into edit/update thumbnail (doesn't do a thing) - and torn out a fair amount of my hair. So anyone out there experienced this and can give me some advice? Please?

I bought and downloaded some music off of the internet on my laptop that uses Windows 8. How can I get my music to open automatically in my itunes instead of opening in the music app (the orange sqaure with headphones)? Currently I have had to often downloads and sift through all my files to find the ones I want to open into itunes, and it's irritating.

Media is only where the user puts it.
Installing iTunes does not and has never caused media to magically appear on the computer.
Copy the ENTIRE iTunes folder from the old computer (or backup of the old computer) to the new computer.

If you do not own a license for CS5 there is not much you can do to get it thru Adobe. They only sell current versions of their software (CS6 or Creative Cloud). You would need to find a third party vendor and take your chances with them.
If you do own a CS5 license you can download the software thru the following page and use your serial number to activate:

How can you get your ipod touch open when you forgot the password and its disabled and not connected to wifi

How can you get your iPod touch open when you forgot the password and its disabled and not connected to the Internet Connection and you don't want to reset it.

Disabled
Place the iOS device in Recovery Mode and then connect to your computer and restore via iTunes. The iPod will be erased.
iOS: Forgot passcode or device disabled
If recovery mode does not work try DFU mode.
How to put iPod touch / iPhone into DFU mode « Karthik's scribblings
For how to restore:
iTunes: Restoring iOS software
To restore from backup see:
iOS: Back up and restore your iOS device with iCloud or iTunes
If you restore from iCloud backup the apps will be automatically downloaded. If you restore from iTunes backup the apps and music have to be in the iTunes library since synced media like apps and music are not included in the backup of the iOS device that iTunes makes.
You can redownload most iTunes purchases by:
Downloading past purchases from the App Store, iBookstore, and iTunes Store
If problem what happens or does not happen and when in the instructions? When you successfully get the iPod in recovery mode and connect to computer iTunes should say it found an iPod in recovery mode.

How can I get a book to open that is downloaded on my Ipad 3, I have uninstalled, reinstalled. Held the turn off button and home button down to reboot, nothing has helped.

How can I get a book to open in my nook app, it downloaded, and installed, it just want open, I have never had this problem before.

This is entirely my complaint.
I have to sit without useable internet for 5 days when there is no fault, before anyone does anything about it ? BT visit the village to do something for another customer, mess up my perfectly working broadband, and then refuse to do anything about it for 5 days. And I pay full price during that time. Let's just hope they don't come back to do something else within those 5 days !!!
There isn't a fault with the line, it is perfectly stable. I just need somebody to use common sense and set the IP profile back to what it was.
If the system is so clever, it could at least try moving off 135k to 512k say after an hour or so.
I will try using that link though and see if somebody can do something !!
Frustrated is not the word ! If I ran my business like this I'd have no customers left. I'm pretty sure that's not the first time somebody has posted that on here

How can I get Mac mail to open winmail.dat attachments on lion 10.7.3

How can I get Mac mail to open letter attachments winmail.dat?? (Lion 10.7.3) Any help appreciated...

Sorry peterskine,
it's true in part. There's more then one article on the subject "Recipients receive a winmail.dat attachment":
http://office.microsoft.com/en-gb/outlook-help/recipients-receive-a-winmail-dat- attachment-HA010153018.aspx?CTT=1
The odd thing is that my colleague and me use the same release mountain lion and we received the same email from someone on Outlook2007. He received the mail with the attachment, whilst I saw a "Winmail.dat". It already happened to me on snow-leopard, some month ago. Up til today I don't know what the difference between our machines is.
But it is interesting: the same OS, the same mail-clients (Apple Mail) and still different results.
Note: on my machine it used to work properly. It just suddenly happened that I started to receive winmail.dat files in stead of proper attachments.
When I have more time on hand, I cant try to find out why this happens.

How can I get Elements 11 to open up in Organizer rather than Editor?

How can I get Elements 11 to open up in Organizer rather than in Editor?

Well, you can go to Window>Welcome and make your change there, but the welcome screen leaves a process always running, so you would do better to go into the Program Files or Program Files (x86) in windows or the applications folder on a mac and find the actual .exe/application for the organizer and make a desktop shortcut/dock icon and use that in the future to launch the organizer, avoiding the welcome screen entirely.

How can I get Win 10 to open to my prefered user account?

How can I get Win 10 to open to my prefered user account? It insists on going to my Administrative account.

Hi,
We could click the Back button beside the account Picture, then the screen would list the account available on this PC:
After that, we could choose the account we want to use.
Another way is to enable this policy:
Interactive logon: Do not display last user name
If this policy is enabled, the full name of the last user to successfully log on is not displayed on the Secure Desktop, nor is the user’s logon tile displayed;
If this policy is disabled, the full name of the last user to log on is displayed, and the user’s logon tile is displayed.
Press Win +X, then open the Run box, type Gpedit.msc, when opening the Local Group Policy Editor, navigate to the following path:
Computer Configuration\Windows Settings\Security Settings\Local Policies\Security Options
On the right pane, find the above policy and then enable it.
More information about that policy, please see:
Interactive logon: Do not display last user name
