Install photoshop on different volume

As a unix person all my disks are formatted to be case sensitive. Photoshop will not install on them. So I added an external disk and formatted it to be case insensitive. But I can't get photoshop to install on this external disk. It keeps trying to install on the system disk. Then says it is case sensitive and suggests I install on a different volume...but there seems to be no option to choose where to install it.
I am using Mac OSK 10.9 Mavericks

"This limitation applies to both the startup drive as well as the drive onto which the software is installed."
So Adobe is telling me, to install photoshop I MUST reformat my system drive to be case insensitive
There is NO mention of this in the "System Requirements Tech Spec" page
Adobe has sold me something that is not fit for purpose!!

Installing Photoshop on different computer

How do I install Adobe Photoshop Elements 10 on my computer after my mom downloaded it on hers? I have the discs and the box and information but I insert the disc and nothing comes up. I can see the disk is in on my desktop but when I open it there is a big list of different folders and icons that need a program to be directed to and it is confusing as hell.

that looks like pse 10 for windows and it looks like you're trying to install that on a mac. that's not going to work.
also, a single user license entitles one person to install/activate pse on up to two computers but it's not intended that two people (you and your mom) both use the same program on two different computers.

I am unable to reinstall Photoshop CS6 (I do have the serial number) on my Macbook Pro 10.9.5 (Mavericks os). and am getting the message "Installation on case-sensitive volumes is not supported. Please choose a different volume for installation." I am further told that "Adobe apps cannot be installed on case-sensitive drives, you need to Install the product onto an HFS+ or HFSJ non-case-sensitive drive."
What I don't understand is this: I originally bought and installed Photoshop CS6 back in March 2013, and it worked fine. Yesterday my hard drive had to be replaced and my computer person salvaged as much of what was on it as he could, but now I have to reinstall Photoshop. 1) Why did it work before and it's not working now? 2) Is there anything I can do that does not involve reformatting the hard drive?

It means what it says. The "computer person" formatted it wrongly/ unsuitably. it needs to be formatted again.

I am trying to install MasterCollection_CS6_LS16. When I click the install file I get this error message: We've encountered the following issues. Installation on case-sensitive volumes is not supported. Please choose a different volume for installation.

I am trying to install MasterCollection_CS6_LS16. When I double click the install file I get this error message: We've encountered the following issues. Installation on case-sensitive volumes is not supported. Please choose a different volume for installation. What does that mean? How should I proceed?

Hey iraravitz,
Could you please let me know what version of OS are working on.
You might receive this error when you attempt to install on a drive with the HFS+ Case Sensitive file system, which is not supported for installation of Adobe Creative Suite 6.
So, please try installing on a drive that has been formatted with a supported file system.
You might refer the KB doc link mentioned below for the same:

Let me know if this helps.

Possible, but not recommended. Get a larger drive.

Can't install Photoshop, what's a Classic Volume??

I want to install Photoshop Elements 2 in my new MacBook Pro.
I put the disc in and eventually get a warning message that says:
"You have no Classic volume is selected."
Quit the installer and go to System Preferences Classic.
Select the volume on which your Classic environment is installed,
and then quit the System Preferences and begin installation again."
So I went to System Preferences but I don't see a Classic volume or a Classic anything anywhere.
But I continue with the installation and then the s installer alerts me
that no Classic environment is installed,
and I will only be able to run Photoshop Elements in OS X native mode.
What in the world does all this mean??
More importantly,
how do I get Photoshop Elements installed
in my Mac?
I continued with the insalllation anyway, but alll I got is a Photoshop E folder in Applications.
There is no program anywhere insde or anywhere else.
Can someope help please?

PSE 2 is requires OS 9 (operating in the Classic environment) to run. Unfortunately your Intel powered MBP cannot run OS 9 without resorting to hacks like Sheepshaver. So, essentially, it's time to upgrade your PSE.

I need to buy Adobe Photoshop to install it on different PCs no internet connection

Hello, I need to buy Adobe Photoshop to install it on different PCs at our client.
The computers have no Internet access, while they are connected to the local network.
What packages are available?
What is the cost?
The licenses have a minimum and maximum installation of many computers?
Thanks!

Hi ,
There is one possibility to have creative cloud subscription without internet connection,it's enterprise subscription .
To have this subscription ,you must buy minimum 100 licenses and a 3 years contract ( You can confirm this with your reseller ).
Here more info about Serial Number licenses enterprise subscription :

Re-installing Photoshop CS6 on new iMac problem.

I transferred my Photoshop CS6 to a new iMac Retina running OSX 10.10.1, having taken care to deactivate on the old Mac first and then reactivated on the new. Photoshop comes up with an error message now each time I launch saying that "One or more files in the Adobe Application Support folder, necassary for running Photoshop, are missing. Please run the Photoshop installer and re-install Photoshop." So I did just that with my original installer disc. At the end of that process it said that there had been some errors and referred me to a log file which said:
Despite all this Photoshop seems to be working, but every time I launch it I get the same error message. I've not used it enough since the move to the new Mac to discover if any other faults have developed. As well as using my original install disc I also tried downloading the CS6 installer from the adobe.com site but exactly the same thing happens. I would welcome suggestions for a fix...

Alas, this did not work. I first of all tried the reinstall in Safe Boot mode and at the end of the process exactly the same install error message as shown above. I then moved to the part of those instructions that said to ditch Adobe AIR and reinstall it. AIR was not visible anywhere on my machine, nor did that folder /Volumes/Adobe Master Collection exist. Maybe there's a difference between what CS6 installs compared with the CS5 your instructions refer to (?). So I went back to the Adobe.com downloads page, got Adobe AIR and installed it - during that it told me it was upgrading my AIR (wherever that was hidden - Find file could not see it) to version 16. Otherwise no reported errors. I went a step further and used the Uninstall tool to remove the existing CS6 installation, then tried reinstalling Photoshop - again same issue, same error. So I'm no further forward after several hours of trying different things.
Any more ideas please?

I clicked the link you supplied and still can't figure out how to attach a screen shot.
However I found out that I did leave out a part of the screen shot message when I
I sent it to you. Here is the message in full. The part I left out is in bold. The reason
I missed it is that it was in the top of the blue border surrounding the text.

If you continue to see this message after restarting your computer, please contact

"Failed to initialize" error message when installing Photoshop Elements 12

Hi,
I kepe getting an error message when trying to install Photoshop elements 12. I have re-downloaded the files multiple times from different places and none work so I know it isn't a corrupted file. Tried a system restart. Tried using support advisor but it found no issues.
I'm running Mac OS X 10.9 on a 2012 Macbook Pro that meets system requirements.
Any help is greatly appreciated

I have gone through the install logs and the error I am getting is 'PIM - Error could not create PIM Common Folder Path'. I have gone to the PDApp folder and it does not have any permissions on it. I have gone to the folder PDApp and it doesn't have any permissions, I'm not sure what to do from here. The PDApp folder is a alias that leads to the Adobe Application Managers folder. Sorry for the font being bold, it wouldn't turn off after pasting the error message.

Creative Cloud App just showing blank white box! Cannot install Photoshop

I'm trying to install a Photoshop trial - have followed instructions to install the CC app. The icon appears on my desktop and a Creative Cloud folder appears in my Explorer folder but when I click on the CC app, all I see is a white box.
Occasionally, I have managed to get list of apps to show - but when I click on the "Try" button next to Photoshop, again it goes to a blank white box. Can't do anything! No spinning icon showing that something is loading - just blank white.
Very frustrating. Just want to download the trial so I can decide if I want to buy. Am on Windows 8 (64 bit). Have tried uninstalling and re-installing using a different browser (Firefox & Chrome) but still same result.
Please help!!
Thank you,

Hi again Jeff - I just read on a similar thread that another user had the same issue with blank CC app and realised the problem was her username having an ampersand "&"
I have an ampersand also in my username on the computer - do you think this might be affecting the issue?
She gave instructions for changing the username (although the link is for Win 7 and I'm using Win 8) - but I'm nervous about changing big system things like that. What happens to "permissions" on certain folders - am I likely to be locked out of making changes in certain folders?
Here is what she wrote on that thread:
If you have ampersand (&) or other non-alphabet characters in windows user folder name (Example: C:\Users\Bob & Mary), then Flash Builder will fail to install (happened to me), Creative Cloud will display white screen, and/or other miscellaneous problems.
I confirmed this to be true and works:
1) I had blank Creative Cloud window as shown in the first post.
2) I renamed the display username and window user folder name by doing the instructions here:
http://www.ghacks.net/2011/03/28/how-to-change-a-windows-account-name-and-user-profile-fol der-name/
(Example: Change from "Bob & Mary" to "Bob n Mary" - without the quotes)
3) After logging back in my newly renamed account, I opened Creative Cloud and login interface shows up! :-)
I would prefer not to do this if you have another suggestion? But just thought I'd mention this as well to see what you thought.
I have also since tried uninstally CC, deleting both the OOBE folder and the AAMUpdater folder, then re-installing CC again... same result. I always get to the list of Apps fine but the minute I click on the "Try" button next to Photoshop, the whole App window goes to a blank white screen and freezes.
Thank you.

Bought a package photographer, installed photoshop and Lightroom 5.6 64-bit, Adobe Photoshop CC 2014 was Russian, and Lightroom 5.6 64-bit is not and was not in a sample of Russian language. Tell me what to do?

Well, the quick summary that you are not going to like: This system is pretty short on RAM and processor power, your graphics driver is outdated and you are using two screens with different resolutions, which eats up all graphics acceleration plus your card has only 256 MB of VRAM in the first place, which doesn't meet the requirements. You will never be able to use 3D under those conditions.

How to install Photoshop cs6 extended?

I bought two different cs6 software packages at different times. I bought and installed design standard first. This included photoshop cs6. I then found a good deal on production premium so I bought it. Production premium is supposed to come with photoshop extended. I installed prod. premium and I still only had the regular photoshop (opening splash screen was just the photoshop version with the circles instead of the photoshop version with the paint splatter).
I tried uninstalling photoshop and reinstalling from the prod. premium disc but it will only install photoshop it seems.
How can I go about installing the photoshop extended version that I should have access to?

Please follow the below mentioned steps:
Open Photoshop
Choose Help > Deactivate
Select Deactivate Permanently from this computer after deactivation completes
Click Deactivate.
Reopen Photoshop. You are prompted for a serial number. Enter the Extended serial number.
