Is it possible to load my Adobe Illustrator/Photoshop CS2 on my wife's new iMac version 10.7?

Greetings All,
Is it possible to load my Adobe Illustrator/Photoshop CS2 on my wife's new iMac version 10.7?  So far, no luck.  Message says: "won't support programs for Power PC"
Apparently it's time to dole out a chunk of change and upgrade.  Your advice, comments, suggestions are welcome. 
Thanks,
George

George:
Always an excellent idea to have a backup somewhere. Make sure you purchase an external drive that is big enough that you can create a few partitions. That way you can have a partition for the "clone" and then maybe two more partitions: one for your files as a backup and one for your wife's. And you can move the external around between your computer and your wife's, as long as they are both Macs.
And for cloning, I suggest and recommend Carbon Copy Cloner:

  • How to download Adobe Premiere pro CS5 for windows to my new imac 27 inch

    How to download Adobe Premiere pro CS5 for windows to my new imac 27 inch

    IMHO Windows would be the place to start.
    Why do you want to load CS5 for Windows?
    Adobe does produce a version of CS5 that runs on OS X so that it would not be necessary for you to have to screw around with Windows. Personally that would be the way to go and avoid the hassles of Windows.

    why is it not possible to install apple remote desktop (from appstore bought earlier) on my new imac 21?

    hello Dahveed, thanks for your reply, i solved it with the help of the migration assistant from another mac - now it works (but before as more info: for my new imac it was not possible to install apple remote desktop from appstore (the install-button not available, the same as installed already...) - and i don't know why...? - is it possible that the reason is the number of owned macs?)

    Welcome to the Apple Support Communities
    Adobe software is conflictive when you use Migration Assistant because their applications don't work properly after migration. If you keep the DVDs or the installers of your software, use them to reinstall all your Adobe applications and they should start working correctly

  • MacBook Air - ok for adobe illustrator/photoshop?

    Looking into the new MacBook Air (13" 512gb upgraded version) as a secondary computer to use for travel
    Is the new air powerful enough to use adobe illustrator to create / edit art files ? ( graphic accessories fashion design)
    I use a new IMac at work - so Im looking for a new laptop  to use this when I travel or on weekends
    I have an old pro (7 years old) but I'd rather not shell out the $$ for a new one since I also have an iPad. So the air seems like a nice option.

    So I just imported a 10-second clip into FCPX with the built in FaceTime Camera and then added a bunch of effects to it and it ran reasonably well. The fan did not immediately come on like it did when working on a project from an external HD via USB... although the iStat temp reading on CPU was 200+ degrees Farenheit and the HD ran close to 180. So, I'm pretty sure under more use it'll run hotter but I think A Jungemann has a point that perhaps working straight from the SSD as opposed to an external HD (at least via anything other than Thunderbolt) will speed things up. The only problem is that the limited disk space on the 256GB SSD is just way too small to complete any substantial video project in 1080p. I know I'm looking forward to getting my hands on a Thunderbolt external HD!
    best news I have heard all day! I agree the limited SSD space makes it "impractical" now but in a few short months, i am sure lacie and others will external hd's available. Can you imagine a time when EVERYTHING is SSD and thunderbolt (or better)? Life will be nothing but rainbows and butterflies!

  • LaserJet Output Changes between Illustrator & Photoshop (CS2)

    Win XP on Dell PC, Adobe CS2 + Bridge, Huey Pro 1.5.0 color management, HP Color LaserJet 3800 Postscript Printer, printing a hi-res CMYK TIF.
    1. How can I synchronize the color output of a TIF file between Illustrator & Photoshop.
    2. And what is causing this variance?
    3. Also, Huey Pro is new on my system. Would it be my best option to color proof this image onscreen for the closest representation for final output (by digital printing press)?
    When I print this TIF file directly from Photoshop CS2 = darker/richer CMYK output.
    When I print a layout in Illustrator CS2 with this exact same TIF linked into the layout = different/lighter CMYK output on the same PS printer.
    My system is color managed by Huey Pro & my educated guess would be that Huey is not causing the differences in output. Right?
    Is there something in Bridge I should check?
    This has been a longterm problem I've been needing to resolve...

    What exactly do you want to do with both the apps?
    Since the exchange of files from AI to PS is based on PDF, I wouldn't expect problems. The only question is, if Photoshop CS2 will be able to read PDF 1.5, since that's the format AI CS6 embeds in its files. If it doesn't work, you could still save a PDF from AI and make it any other PDF version.
    Illustrator can read lower version PSD.
    Copy-Paste might be a problem. I can't experiment, since I don't have that PS version any more.

  • Can I use Adobe Photoshop CS4 Extended on my brand new iMac? I had PS on my old Mac using the student licensing.

    About four years ago, I purchased Adobe Photoshop CS4 Extended while I was in undergrad. I downloaded it to my Mac. Since then, I've purchased a brand new iMac. Can I use this same software? I know it's been four years so the software is very updated, AND my new iMac does NOT have a cd drive. This may all be in vain. I'm just clueless! Thanks!

    Emalexander89 you are welcome to install Photoshop CS4 on your new Mac.  You can download a fresh copy of the installation files at Download CS6 products.

  • My computer was formatted, I lost Adobe Illustrator, Photoshop, etc and I don't have my license code.

    Windows 7 PC.
    License (CS6) bought and installed. My work computer was reformatted by the I.T department and I sub-sequentially lost all my programs. I don't have the license code. Is there any way of retrieving the license and re-downloading?
    Please help as I urgently need to use Illustrator and Photoshop for  work purposes.

    Hazel,
    Installation rules will let you install the software on two computers. If you have already installed the software twice and you don't have access to your previous computer or you upgraded your computer's hardware, replace a hard drive, upgraded your operating system, or reformatted your drive before deactivating your software, you can ask Adobe Support to help you deactivate the software from the machine. Just have your serial number or Adobe ID ready, and then contact support. Then you can install the software from the links above and enter your serial number to re-activate the software.
    If you need to find your serial number, sign in to your Adobe account. On the Manage Accounts page that appears, all of your registered products and their serial numbers are listed in the Plans & Products section. For more information on locating serial numbers, or on registering a serial number, please see Find a serial number.

  • My laptop recently crashed and had to be restored back to it's original factory settings. I lost my entire iTunes library and have had to start from scratch again. Is it possible to load everything i currently have on my iphone4 into my new iTunes library

    When i connect my iphone to the new iTunes library it tells me that it's going to erase everything on my iphone and upload everything from the new iTunes library onto it. Is there a way to save everything on my phone into the new iTunes library?

    Thanks for all of your advice.
    I just downloaded a copy of TuneJack for the small price of $9.95.
    It retrieved all my music from my iphone and loaded it all straight into my iTunes library for me all at a click of a button and only took a few minutes.
    Problem solved I can stop stressing now!

  • How can I turn off automatic loading of Bridge in PhotoShop CS2?

    For the life of me I can not find the way to turn off automatic
    startup of bridge in CS2. Please help....

    Thanks for the reply. On my computer I am running PSCS2 and InDesign CS4. I went into InDesign Preferences and disabled running scripts. Then I opened PhotoShop, preferences and there was a option to uncheck, automatically start Bridge with PhotoShop. I swear I looked for this option 4 or 5 times and it was not there. Now either I am going looney or disabling the option to run scripts in CS4 did the trick. If any of you are still using CS2 would you confirm that the option is or is not there to disable bridge when starting PSCS2.
    I am thankful that you guys have helped me to resolve this. I am still curious as to whether I am going looney....you guys are the best!
