How do I install Photoshop CS3?

How did you install Photoshop CS3 originally? If you originally had the application on disk but no longer have the disks available, you'll need to download a copy (unless you can find someone who still has a disk). If you originally purchased it from us via download, just log into your account and you can download another copy. If you need to download, but didn't download it from us originally, you can get a copy from here: http://prodesigntools.com/download-adobe-cs4-and-cs3-free-trials-here.html
And Frank, CS6 will continue to be available for sale (not "rent") for the foreseeable future.

  • Installing Photoshop CS3 on Windows 8

    How can i install Photoshop CS3 on Windows 8 - install does not complete - error message "Installer Database corrupt".  The Abobe help chat system is unable to help.
    Rebooting my computer and re-downloading the software from the Adobe website for another clean install made no difference.
    Is this a compatability problem and if so how can I fix it?

         Something else to try:

  • How to uninstall supported Photoshop CS3 programs like Adobe Bridge CS3, Device Central CS3 etc.

    Hello
    I have installed Photoshop CS3, but it also installed other programs like Adobe Bridge, Device Central, Stock Photos, Camera Raw etc. I want to ask how can I uninstall them because I am using Photoshop only. And all of this other programs just take a lot of space on my HDD. Please help how to unistall them...!

    You are saving maybe 600 MB and Bridge is an integral part of Photoshop as is Camera RAW which is a whopping 23MB.

  • Getting a "Setup Error" when I try to re-install Photoshop CS3

    I've had a nightmare week.  My iMac crapped out and I lost the harddrive.  Now I'm slogging through the process of re-installing all my software.
    Per the instructions of the Adobe Customer Service, I went into "My Adobe" > "My Orders" and downloaded the Photoshop CS3 I purchased in Sept. 2007.  (I know it's old but it serves the purpose I need).
    But when I double click the "Setup" application, I get the following message:
    Setup Error
    Setup has encountered an error and cannot continue. Contact Adobe Customer Support for assistance.
    When I contacted Customer Support, they told me they could not help me because they do not offer support for old versions of CS and to post a question here, so that's what I'm doing.
    Does anyone know what the "Setup Error" is and how I can re-install Photoshop CS3?

    Is IE your default browser?
    The address in that error is somewhat peculiar, in that it points to a process running on your computer (127.0.0.1 is a loopback address that points to your own system).
    I suggest that after downloading and saving the Flash installer to a folder, you completely exit Firefox, and do the installation with Firefox closed in case having Firefox open is interfering in some manner.
    Of course, make sure you get the official installer from Adobe, and '''uncheck the box for any tag-along software that you do not want''':

  • Cannot install photoshop CS3!!

    Hello there. I currently have Windows vista installed on a laptop. I recently tried to install Photoshop Extended. However, when it get's to "initializing Adobe Photoshop" It just stops...nothing pops up. I had it installed on my computer before then I had to restore my computer using recovery cds. I was able to install Adobe After Efects but can't install photoshop CS3. It has an entry in my add/remove program in control panel but when I click uninstall nothing happens.

    yeah, i had the same problem as you too, but i got it fixed =]
    I think this happens because we uninstalled photoshop incorrectly
    heres how i did it, its kinda risky though...
    go to your start and click on run and type in "regedit"
    then from the beginning of your registry (by this i mean go all the way top of your registry and click on your My Computer) hold ctrl+f and search for "photoshop"
    delete (the folder) everything that is related to adobe products (careful though, some registry are not related to adobe...)
    just press F3 to search next...
    you might want to try other search terms, i used "cs3" and "adobe" but the bad thing about this is a lot of other adobe products show up
    hope this helps...
    oh yeah.. i am on windows xp, but i think on vista should be the same...

  • Trouble installing Photoshop CS3

    I've just recently had a clean install on my Apple iMac. I'm now re-installing all the software that I need. I'm having a problem installing Photoshop CS3. I have the folder, the serial number, and its on the list of products registered with Adobe. How do I install?

    If your lucky, using the photoshop cs3 unistaller in the Applications>Utilites>Adobe Installers>Add or Remove Adobe Photoshop CS3
    might work for unistalling cs3.
    Then doing a fresh install from the dvd or downloader installer might work.
    If not, then you'll have to download and run the CC Cleaner Tool
    http://helpx.adobe.com/creative-suite/kb/cs5-cleaner-tool-installation-problems.html
    Then search around on your hard drive (check especially hard  drive>library>application support adobe, as well as Applications)
    and remove all the bits you can find, then reinstall from your original  installation media.
    Do you have any later versions of photoshop like cs4 already installed?

  • How to deauth. Photoshop CS3 on computer w/ dead network card?

    Hi,
    The network card on my ~4-6 years old Windows XP PC at work died and the tech guy said the network card is part of the motherboard so it would make more sense to just get a new machine instead of fixing the existing machine.  Since I will be getting a new machine, I was wondering how to deauthorize the Photoshop CS3 that is currently on the broken computer since I can't get on the network.  I have the Photoshop CS3 install disk and codes and will need to reinstall Photoshop on the new machine once it arrives.  Thank you.

    and the tech guy said
    I agree with Marian - any halfway savvy network admin usually has a cheap replacement card in reserve or an USB to Ethernet adaptor that just need to be plugged in. Even without the correct driver, they normally run as a "Generic ethernet card on adress XX:XX:XX:XX", they may just be locked into the slowest of modes. That aside, calling is of course the next best alternative. It's really no big deal, as long as your current install is still functioning and you are able to produce the verification code.

  • I want to install Photoshop CS3 on my new PC

    I want to install Photoshop CS3 on my new PC.  I had it on my old PC.  How do I do it?

    It depends partly on what media you have the CS3 file in to be able to install it and partly on the system characteristics of the new PC.  If you do not have disks, then you will need to download the installation file from a site that provides trial version.  It is possible CS3 will not install depending on the system.

  • Difficulties installing photoshop cs3

    Wondered if anyone else experienced problems installing Photoshop CS3 on Windows 7?
    It works, but there are known problems with installation and use so you should consult the Adobe support forums. If you're trying to install it on a new PC, just get the latest upgrade package from Adobe. You'll get A LOT more out of the latest version than you would CS3 since CS3 doesn't support the newer technology and lacks hardware acceleration.

  • Having problems re-installing Photoshop CS3 onto my Mac

    Hi, I am having a few problems with re-installing Photoshop CS3 (consisting of licensed versions of CS and the CS3 upgrade) onto my Mac after a repair.  I run a 2.8GHz Intel Core 2 Duo Powerbook and OSX mountain Lion).  On installation I had to ok the following error messages...."Could not import clipboard because unexpected end of file was encountered" and "Could not Synchronize colour settings because of program error" CS3 is running but simple action requests such as levels are unavailable in the batch processing and Adobe Bridge quits unexpectedly all the time aswell.  Any advice on how to get a quality re-install and/or how to fix these problems?  Any help much appreciated:)
    Ian.

    I do not know what I did differently this time, but I finally got this printer to install. I wish I could leave a better solution in case others are running into a similar problem; however, I honestly have nothing to say besides uninstalling everything and then installing it again using the HP Printer Install Wizard.

  • Can't Install Photoshop CS3 Trial

    I began the setup process for photoshop cs3, and while installing it crashed. I tried to run the program, and it wouldnt load. I attempted to uninstall it through Add/Remove programs, and it would not work. I tried re-installing the program, but the setup program will not run. Nothing about this program will run/work correctly for me. If you have any ideas as to how I can uninstall/repair/re-install photoshop CS3, please let me know.
    Thanks in advance for any help.

  • Installing Photoshop CS3 on a MBA

    Hey guys, I need your help.
    Here's my problem: How to install Photoshop CS3 Upgrade on a MBA?
    I've tried first using Remote Disc - it installs but when I open PH CS3 there's a window saying that a few files are missing because the original installer is out of place, and asking to reinstall. It doesn't work.
    Second try _ I copy PH CS3 from my MacBook using an USB stick and install- the same window appears.
    Third try- I copied the whole PH CS3 install DVD to an USB stick, copied to my desktop and the same thing.
    I believe the installer is looking for a previous version, but how can I tell PH that I've a previous version and how to point in that direction.
    Any help is welcome.
    P.S. With Illustrator CS3 I didn't have any problem, and it's also an Upgrade.
    Thanks
    Pedro

    Happy ending of the "saga".
    I tried downloading from the Adobe site more than 20 times, and never got it through, so, I did what I wasn't willing to do: bought a SuperDrive for the MBA, trashed everything with the word "Adobe", and reinstalled first PH CS3, which went very smooth, then, reinstalled Illustrator CS3, and it also went perfect.
    The reason I decided to buy the SuperDrive was simply because I didn't want to spend endless hours doing the installation of PH and Il using Remote Disc.
    Remote Disc is a good idea, but not for massive installations, since it crawls when compare to the SuperDrive.
    Anyway, thanks for all the suggestions and help.
    I love my NBA.
    Regards
    Pedro

  • How can I download Photoshop CS3?

    i previously had a pc and now have a mac.  I would like to download my photoshop CS3 on to my mac but don't have a CD drive.  Please advise.thanks.

    Cjb24 your Creative Suite 3 serial number is OS specific.  If you have a license for a Windows version of Photoshop CS3 then you will be unable to utilize that license on Mac OS.
    I would recommend setting up a virtual machine with Windows 7 and installing Photoshop CS3 within the virtual machine.
    You can verify the operating system of your Creative Suite 3 license by viewing it under your account at http://www.adobe.com/.  You can find more details on how to locate your serial number at Find your serial number quickly - http://helpx.adobe.com/x-productkb/global/find-serial-number.html.
