How do I unlock Photoshop 6?

I just installed the CS6 upgrade, but when I try to launch Photoshop I am told that I need to unlock it through the properties tab in Windows. I went to the properties tab, but I don't see anything there that says lock/unlock.
What am I missing? Thanks.

It refers to the PS swap file. You either have a mundane permissions issue with your hard drives or UAC is acting up. Run as admin, fix your user privileges and file permissions, turn off UAC.

  • How do I unlock the BRUSHES in PHOTOSHOP CS6?

    How do I unlock my bushes in PHOTOSHOP cs6?
    [ font size and color fixed by admin ]

    Hi Catherine (catherinemary2012),
    I imagine you already found out how to unlock brushes, but I'll share what worked for me. I had the same issue while trying to create a new brush shape and then edit it.  After some poking around I tried selecting the "Brush Tool" icon on the menu to the left side of my work area before trying to edit my brush shape.  After selecting the "Brush" icon, the "Brush" and "Brush Presets" became active and the brushes were able to be locked or unlocked. Also, I don't think you are impolite .

  • How do i unlock pictures for my slide show?

    how do i unlock pictures for slideshow? do i have to save them? where?

    Which operating system are you running on?
    Which version of Photoshop Elements are you using?
    If you have made changes to a photo, those changes have to be saved before you can use that photo in a slideshow. Where you save it is really up to you.
    Do you use the organizer and import all your photos into it? Please note that Elements itself does not keep a copy of your photos - you always have control over where the photos are stored. The elements organizer just saves the links to your photos.
    If you have selected a photo in the organizer and then selected edit, the editor will open and you can make your changes. While the photo is open in the editor, it is marked as locked in the organizer. When you have finished editing the photo, save it and the close it in the editor. The lock in the organizer is then released.
    I hope that helps you. If you still have a query, please tell us how you are working and we may be able to provide other advice.

  • Newbie Question ... How do you Unlock Background Layer

    How do you unlock the background layer?  I put together an image then flattened it.  Now it is showing as locked.  I want to make changes to the various layers I used to make the image.  The lock symbol in ghosted, as well as the Lock Grid image.
    Can anyone offer any quick assistance?
    Thanks.

    You'll get better response on the Photoshop Elements forum for a Photoshop Elements question, of course.
    But, meantime, try double-clicking on the Background layer on the Layersa palette.

  • How do I unlock my brushes

    How do I unlock my preset brushes in photoshop cs6 it is not highlighted and when I click on it it wont allow me to check it.

    Basic phones as well as smartphones can sometimes utilize some of the frequencies and bands from other carriers, but function is limited since, for example, Sprint uses 800 and 1900 and Verizon uses 850 and 1900...therefore only one frequency would work in this case.  So, it's not the most efficient use of a phone.

    I did not deactivate a photoshop cs6 before there was a new "C" hard drive installed on my computer and a Win7 Pro fresh install too. How can I activate photoshop on the new hardware if I can't deactivate it on the old hardware that is no longer available? Any help will be appreciated.

    If it's the same machine (same CPU) there should not be any need to activate.  The actiovation is tied to your CPU.

  • How do I unlock voice activation on iphone

    How do I unlock voice activation on iPhone 4

    Hi Kilted Tim, thank you for your quick response.
    Yup, I've had the unlimited plan for about 4-5 years, and I do everything I can to keep from losing it, for obvious reasons.
    As you advise, I've been using the iphone in airplane mode with wifi activated which works fine when I am in wifi range. But of course when I'm out and about I want to use my data roaming for internet, maps, skype, whatever so I take it out of airplane mode.
    The trouble is that I get incoming calls and am charged international rates even when I dont answer. I havent looked lately but I think AT&T charges me for one minute even for unanswered incoming calls.
    Any ideas?
    Many thanks!

  • How do I unlock an iPhone 4 with iOS 7 and bypass the activation lock?

    How do I unlock an iPhone 4 with iOS 7 and bypass the activation lock? I can't find the previous owner and I really want to use my new iPhone, I did purchase it Second-Handed.and now I'm stuck. Ive tried recovery mode and nothing still restores and asks me the same thing. Been working on this forever- Please Help!

    If you want to risk your money, fine. 
    To answer your questions
    Is this just an iOS 7 feature?
    Yes, Activation Lock is an iOS 7 feature.
      Could you not restore the device to an earlier version?
    No, you cannot downgrade your iOS device.
    That may mean jailbreaking, I'm not sure.
    Jailbreaking is not supported by Apple or this forum.
    Or what about replacing the motherboard?
    There are no user serviceable parts on an iPhone.

  • How do i unlock my Sprint iphone5 with IOS 7.4 0 to use any network here in the U S?

    How can i unlock my Sprint iphone5 with IOS 7.4.0 to be compartable with other service providers here in the U S?

    You can't. Sprint phones can be unlocked ONLY for use on non US carriers. They can not be used on any US carrier other than Sprint. If you want to use a different carrier in the US, sell the phone and buy one you can use.

  • How do I unlock an iphone 5 with Sprint. The SIM is in and Sprint gave me the unlock code, but what are the steps to unlock it?

    How do I unlock an iphone 5 with Sprint 15.1 at IOS 7.0.6 IMEI 99 000320 012095 0 .
    The SIM is in and Sprint gave me the unlock code, but what are the steps to unlock it?

    There is no such thing as an unlock code.   Sprint may have processed the unlock, and then requested you restore the iPhone using iTunes to complete it. But that's it. There is no code to enter, and nowhere to enter it any way.

  • I got an iphone from Hong Kong which is locked one. Can anyone explain me what does a locked iphone means. How do I use it in India now, with my own sim card. How do I unlock it???

    I got an iphone from Hong Kong which is locked one. Can anyone explain me what does a locked iphone means. How do I use it in India now, with my own sim card. How do I unlock it???

    If your iPhone is locked to a wireless provider, only that wireless provider
    can unlock it. Contact the wireless provider in Hong Kong to see if they
    offer unlocking and if you qualify.
    If your iPhone is locked to an AppleID that you do not know, return it for
    a refund as it is useless. Only the person whose AppleID was used for
    activation can remove the lock. There is no workaround for Activation Lock.
    If neither of the above is what you are facing, provide more detail so someone
    may offer a solution.

  • I am locked out of my iPod touch and i can't restore it as it asks for my password which i don't know how do i unlock it?

    I am locked out of my iPod and it says i cannot restore or back up due to me needing to unlock it and obviously i don't have my password. Please help, how do i unlock it?

    Options for when an iOS device gets locked because of forgotten password:
    Restore (and reset password) on your device by connecting it to the last computer to which it was connected:
    iTunes: Backing up, updating, and restoring iOS software - http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1414
    If you cannot connect it to the computer to which the device was last connected you will have to use recovery mode to completely reset the device, losing all data:
    iOS: Unable to update or restore - http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1808 - recovery mode (e.g., cannot connect to computer last used to sync device, iTunes still asks for a password)

    Trying to update OS on an original iPad.  Connected to iTunes -- screen is locked showing iTunes/USB cable icons.  iTunes says must restore to default settings, but receive an error message 3014 that this cannot be done.  Cannot unlock screen to use nor can I update or restore, so iPad not usable at this point.  How can I unlock screen so I can use iPad, how do I fix this error?  Latest version of iTunes is downloaded and I've followed all the instructions in regard to Windows.  I'd at least like to unlock iPad so it can be used.  Thanks.

    bummer. *Note that if you are actually running iOS 5.1.1, that's it for the iPad 1st Gen.
