I'm using Adobe Photoshop CS5 Extended and am having trouble with it.

I just reinstalled Photoshop CS5 Extended from my original disk because I was having trouble with it. I did do an uninstall before installing. Every time I quit Photoshop I get this message: "Could not save Preferences because the file is locked or you do not have the necessary access privileges. Use the ‘Get Info’ command in the Finder to unlock the file or change permissions on the file or enclosing folders." Can you tell me what to do to fix this? I went to get info and made changes to read and write, but it made no difference. Thanks for your help.

Some folders are hidden in the Finder. Use the "Go to Folder" command for that.
Go menu > Go to Folder, enter:
/Users/YOURUSERNAME/Library/Preferences/Adobe Photoshop CS5 Settings

    Which operating system are you using?  It should open in the usual manner depending on your OS.

  • Using Adobe Photoshop CS5 Extended with MacBook Pro Retina

    I intend to buy the new MacBook Pro with retina display. Does anyone know if I will be able to use Photoshop CS5 Extended with it? I could upgrade to CS6 but it seems an unnecessary cost given that I am still quite happy with CS5.

    CS5 does not offer Retina quality display - in fact, it looks awful. The current version of CS6 was updated to work with Retina display models (you'll need to check with Adobe to see what the current version of CS6 is... I know they haven't 'abandoned' it, but I subscribe to CC so I'm on CC 2014).
    Good luck,

  • Does my computer meet the system requirements for Adobe Photoshop CS5 Extended?

    I am planning to buy Adobe Photoshop CS5 Extended but I have tried to understand if my computer 's system is enough for the software. Please help me, the Adobe requirements I am unsure of are in bold and my system is in italics (My laptop is an Acer Aspire 5715Z):
    Windows
    Intel® Pentium® 4 or AMD Athlon® 64 processor - Intel Pentium Dual CPU T2330  (Should be higher than Pentium 4???)
    1024x768 display (1280x800 recommended) with qualified hardware-accelerated OpenGL graphics card, 16-bit color, and 256MB of VRAM - display is no problem, Mobile Intel GL960 Express Chipset with Integrated 3D graphics, featuring Intel Graphics Media Accelerator X3100 with up to 358 MB of Intel Dynamic Video Memory Technology 4.0)
    Some GPU-accelerated features require graphics support for Shader Model 3.0 and OpenGL 2.0 - I haven't got a clue what to look for.
    Thank you for all help!

    That's from the Acer website.
    It IS a pentium processor, but I see nothing to indicate if it's 64bit. I'm guessing it's 32. CS5 works best in a 64 bit environment, that's my personal opinion. I've used it in both and 64 outperforms 32.
    2Gb of Ram will cause some performance issues too. If your aspire can be bumped up to 4Gb do that first.
    80Gb of HD with Vista and I don;t kow how much other software and files you have, but it isn't a lot these days. I had a Toshiba with an 80Gb drive and I lasted about three months before I HAD to put a 250Gb in it. Once I had Vista Ultimate, CS4 Master Collection, Office 2007, Roxio Creator 10 and about 4 Gb of websites. I had to connect an external drive for my Photoshop files because I had about 6Gb left on the drive.
    It will run (in 32bit mode) but with the "factory" specs, it will run slower and you may experience issues with it freezing up on large files (2Gb or bigger).

  • 3D Text with Repoussé in Adobe Photoshop CS5 Extended | CSInsider | Design | Adobe TV

    In this episode of CSInsider, Rufus Deuchler, Worldwide Design Evangelist at Adobe, introduces you to how easily you can extrude text in Adobe Photoshop CS5 Extended to create fully fledged 3D objects. These 3D objects can then be rendered using Photoshop's own Raytracing engine, including cast shadows. This feature lets you add a 3D flair to your 2D images.

    When I go into either CS 5.5 extended, the 3d features are ALL greyed out??? What is wrong?

    I'm trying to process RAW images from my new SanDisk Ultra memory card and unable to do so. I'm currently using Adobe Photoshop CS4 Extended, is this the right one or do I need to update?

    …and you absolutely have to specify the camera model that generated those raw image files.

  • Necesito actualizar la versión de prueba de Adobe Photoshop CS5 Extended, para mi curso en Deusto

    Necesito actualizar la versión de prueba de Adobe Photoshop CS5 Extended, para mi curso en Deusto Formación. Pues en la página de descargas, ya no está CS5 Extended, sino el nuevo CS6 Extended; pero yo necesito seguir con el que utilizo en el curso, al que estoy matriculada por un año (hasta marzo de 2013)

    Let me see if I understand correctly: You want to extend a trial version so you can finish your course? That's not possible. Unless you bought the product and have a serial number, there is no way to extend a trial version.

  • Serial number incorrect for Adobe Photoshop CS5 extended education edition

    I received a serial number for my Adobe Photoshop CS5 extended education edition, but I get the message: this serial number is not valid for this product.
    Apparently it's not possible to send an email to Adobe NL, so I hope someone can help me out.
    Thanks in advance!

    Hi there
    I've checked your record and it looks like you've been provided with a CS6 serial number instead of CS5.
    Please provide the details from the bar code label on the box & I'll arrange for the correct serial number to be sent to you.
    Kind regards

    I have Photoshop CS5 Extended and it says updates available but when i download the updates it says updates failed please try again later, i have tried a few times and get the same message any help would be great i am running 64bit on windows 8.

    I am running Windows 7 64 bit ultimate and have the same problem.  My hard drive crashed, installed a new one and then reinstalled CS5 extended.  Installation went fine, but can no longer open my camera RAW files from Photoshop (camera is a Canon EOS T2i.  The message also tells me I am not eligible for the update.  I am... and I cannot open my files and I could before.  I can find nowhere to contact Adobe to tell me how to proceed.  My daughter is all a registered user of the same product and she had no problems upgrading... we purchased ours each at the same time. I do know the difference is that I had to reinstall and she did not.  If that means anything.
