Is there any way to use Illustrator (CS5) with Windows 8.1?

I'm in the middle of installing CS5 Design Premium on new machine (Win8.1) and see error beside Illustrator that the system requirements are not met.  Windows help site suggests CS5 and Win8.1 are compatible.  Surely there is some way to make these work together like the rest of my creative suite...?

Without exact system info we cannot know. There could be any number of reasons why it thinks it isn't compatible and generic "It's Windows 8.1" don't help.

  • Is there a way to use PM4.0 with Windows XPH?

    Is there a way to use PM4.0 with Windows XPH without purchasing the latest suite or upgrades?  I origionally purchased a suite with Pagemaker, Photostyler and Freehand just before Aldus went Adobe, and Win3.1 went Win95, then WinME and WinXP.  I miss PM and have several manyscripts saved on PM4.0 and can not export or import them to any current wordprocessing programs.  I was very far into one manuscript and am now in a position to finish it up but don't want to have to purchase a whole suite in order to do so.  Any suggestions for this old tightwad?  [email protected]

    Shouldn't that be Win3.0  c.1991?  And with a very early of version ATM (Ver 2?)  if you want to do anything with fonts?
    I think I have a WinME PC in the garage, which if you can re-format with DOS 5 and install Win3 instead (I may have the disks in the garage too), PM4 will positively scream along.
    I reckon it's non starter on a modern WinXP PC, as the OS is so different, but if you're willing to experiment, you never know!
    But if you want to open some old files to extract the text, you can open the PM4 files and save them with a d/l'ed trial copy of PM7, which will be OK on WinXP

  • Is there any way to use Compressor 4 with iMovie '11?

    I'm a student filmmaker without the money for Final Cut Pro X. Footage from my Canon VIXIA HF S20 (AVCHD format) looks just about perfect when I import it into iMovie and when I cut together a project. However, when I finalize the project, the darker hues in my footage always come out pixelated and crappy. Whether it's 1080p or 480p, this is always the case.
    I've been told that Compressor 4 does a much better job of encoding and exporting, but it's completely integrated with Final Cut Pro X and not iMovie. Is there any way I can take raw project files from iMovie and export them using Compressor? Or must I be forced to save up for Final Cut Pro X?

    You should be able to use Compressor with iMovie - it's a standalone app - but, of course, there will be no "Send To" buttons. But I really doubt that it will help you much.

    Finalizing means that iMovie renders your video in different sizes. Have you tried to export or "Share to Media Browser"?

  • Is there any way to set up icloud with Windows XP?

    Is there any way to set up icloud using a PC with windows XP?

    Yes there is.
    There are many threads on this forum discussing this issue already (it's good to search before asking the same quesiton again).
    There is a simple hack to get iCloud control panel to work on Windows XP to give you synced access to Contacts, Calenders, Reminders and Bookmarks. It also can be used to set up your me.com mail. Photostream doesn't work.
    I found a solution here, have written it up in clearer english and added details re IMAP support for me.com addresses here:
    http://xlii.be/s/1ii
    In summary:
    You need:
    Unpacking program e.g. 7-Zip or WinRar
    Orca MSI editor
    The iCloud setup hack for Windows XP:
    Download iCloud Control Panel for Windows.
    Open iCloudSetup.exe file with WinRar or 7-Zip and extract.
    Navigate to and open the iCloud.msi or iCloud64.msi (for 64bit systems) with Orca.
    In the left table select LaunchCondition. Then change in the right table “VersionNT> = 600” to “VersionNT> = 200” and Save.
    Run modified iCloud.msi and install.
    Run iCloud Control Panel, located in the Windows Control Panel, and set up as you want.
    I've had reports that you need to keep the files extracted from the .exe file in the same directory during installaton of the .msi file.
    Have fun!

  • Is there any way to use iPod touch with Win2000/SP4?

    Got an iPod touch for christmas... very cool. It doesn't synch with my computer... not so cool.
    The information I've found - compatibility chart at http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=60971 - suggests that I'm SOL with Win2000 - it appears that I can't upgrade past iTunes 7.3 whereas 7.4 seems to be required for the Touch. Are there any hacks our ways around this, or am I just going to have to suck it up...? I don't like using sketchy pirated OS's but I'm not real excited about going out and buying a new OS either.

    There is no way for you to use iTunes with Win2K and the Touch. You can use 3rd party software, WinAmp, with a plug-in: http://www.winamp.com/ but this will not let you download upgrades and purchase 3rd party software for the Touch when it becomes available.

  • HT4864 Is there any way to use POP mail with iCloud?

    Hi newbie here, so be kind!  Just trying to set up iCloud on my new iPad, my iPhone 3G and my oldish Windows PC running Vista.  I have managed to get the iPad and iPhone running relatively well, but the real reason I wanted to synch all my devices was because I am buried beneath all the emails that I receive each day and cleaning them off three devices was a real hassle (1st world prob I know).  My PC is running Windows mail because I couldn't get Yahoo mail to run on POP or IMAP settings. So I have been happily downloading Yahoo mail (via) POP into Windows mail for a few years now.  However I have hit an Apple Support doc saying that I cannot use POP settings in iCloud (if you know what I mean), I have to use IMAP.  Can anyone help me with what settings I need to put in Windows Mail to make it sync with the mail client on my phone and iPad?
    Any help would be much appreciated.

    Gmail and all POP systems are not iCloud mail. iCloud mail ends with @mac, @me or @icloud.com, Gmail and POP systems are not handled by iCloud mail systems.

    Internet Explorer is not available for Mac.
    But you can make Safari pretend to be Internet Explorer in some cases.
        Safari > Preference > Advanced
        Checkmark the box for "Show Develop menu in menu bar".
        "Develop" menu will appear in the Safari menu bar.
        Click Develop, move mouse down to "User Agent".
        Select Internet Explorer from popup on the rightside.
        After using Internet Explorer, revert back to Safari, doing the same routine.

  • Any way to get Illustrator CS5 to display full screen mode like Photoshop?

    Is there any way to get Illustrator's screen modes to behave like Photoshop's screen modes?
    One of the things I like most about Photoshop is the way it toggles from standard screen mode to "full screen with menu bar" to just "full screen".
    For example, in Photoshop's standard mode, the window is no bigger than the size of the canvas. Why can't Illustrator do that?
    And, is there anyway to get Illustrator CS5 to display the full screen mode where the background outside the artboard or canvas is black instead of white. Working in Illustrator for long hours, it would much easier on my eyes if the surrounding background could be black like in Photoshop.
    Thanks very much in advance for any help,
    - Nick

    At the bottom of the Tool bar is a toggle button (F) which will change the Screen Mode.

  • I'm using TestStand/Labview to do a string value test. Is there any way to use a variable in the edit string value test?? This forces you to hard code a string to test against.

    I'm using TestStand 2.0/Labview 6i to do a string value test. Is there any way to use a string variable in the edit string value test instead of an actual string?? This forces you to hard code a string to test against.

    Hi ART,
    You can also use the LimitLoader step to load your string into to step similar to the Numeric Step type.
    There should be an example of this in the Resource Library | TestStand
