It won't let me install Photoshop CS5.1 Extended Edition, but it says it has

I bought the student edition of Photoshop CS5.1 online maybe a month ago and I still can't actually use the program. I run the intstallation program and it notes that it has already been installed because I've been through this quite a few times but I continue with the installation anyway. When it's done loading it gives me a thany you message that says intallation is complete. I press done, but when I access the file in applications, the image is transparent and has a don't enter sign through it. When I click that I get a message that says "You can't open the application Adobe Photoshop CS5.1 because it may be damaged or incomplete."
To note: Mac OS X Version 10.7.2
             I was using a free trial of photoshop CS5 in the beginning of summer

You need to remove the trial prior to installing the purchased version.  You can find the uninstaller inside the Utilities folder and Adobe Installers. Remove the software and then try your installation again.

  • Where can I download Photoshop CS5.1 Extended Edition?

    Platform: Mac
    OS: OSX 10.9.4
    I have Adobe Photoshop and Illustrator CS5.1 Extended editions on my desktop. I purchased these in December 2011, the serial numbers for them show up on my Adobe account when I login and look at my products.
    I wanted to install these on my new laptop - so I went to 'Downloads' - Older products, and can only find CS5 for each, not CS5.1
    So I downloaded CS5 versions instead, and installed them. These activated successfully using my serial numbers. Then I tried to update them. The only updates available are 12.04 for Photoshop (CS5.1 is version 12.1), and also, the updates wouldn't download?
    Any suggestions as to how I can get 5.1 onto my laptop?

    if you follow all 7 steps you can directly download a trial here:  Download Adobe CS5.5 Trials: Direct Links (no Assistant or Manager) | ProDesignTools
    and activate with your serial number.
    if you have a problem starting the download, you didn't follow all 7 steps, or your browser does not accept cookies. 
    the most common problem is caused by failing to meticulously follow steps 1,2 and/or 3 (which adds a cookie to your system enabling you to download the correct version from adobe.com). 
    failure to obtain that cookie results in an error page being displayed after clicking a link on prodesigntools.com or initiates the download of an incorrect (eg, current) version.

  • Installed Photoshop CS5 in Design Premium, but cannot install Photoshop 64-bit that comes with it

    I've Creative Suite Design Premium and everything installed perfectly including Photoshop. However, the 64-bit Photoshop has fatal errors when installing and ceases. I've a new Windows 7 Computer and this problem is persistent. Can anyone help me? Here is the error:

    Thank you so very much!!!

    On the off chance, have you installed any prerelease software from Adobe prior to installing Design Premium?

  • HT1338 I downloaded OS X moutain lion but it won't let me install it on my MAC HD drive. it says it can't becease time machaine use the MAC HD drive. How do I get this Installed?

    e time machaine use the MAC HD drive. How do I get this Installed?

    Welcome to Apple Support Communities
    That's because you have a "Backups.backupdb" folder at the root level of the hard disk, so the Mountain Lion installer detects that your OS X partition is being used by Time Machine. Just open Finder, select Go menu (on the menu bar) > Go to Folder, and type "/" (without quotes). Finally, delete the "Backups.backupdb" folder and run the OS X installer again

  • I just installed photoshop in my new macbook, but it says i don't have enough memory

    I haven't used much of my memory, the only programs i've installed are adobe c5 and microsoft office. When I open photoshop and try to use it says "cannot complete your request because there is not enough memory" after every click of the mouse.

    ya, that is just kind of a band-aid though. later if you decide you will need to add more RAM, go to crucial.com and download their mac scanner. it will tell you what kind you need and usually they have pretty good prices. buying RAM from apple would cost you.

  • Unable to activate adobe photoshop cs5.1 subscription edition

    So i try to open photoshop and this window comes up saying that i have to activate adobe photoshop cs5.1 subscription edition but then it keeps say to "please connect to the internet, then press continue" even though my internet is working PERFECTLY, i click continue and then a few mintues later it says the same thing all over again?? help!

    d1235234 can you please confirm that you are still installing Photoshop CS5?  All point product subscriptions were converted over a year ago to Creative Cloud point product memberships.  You should be able to utilize the directions listed at Install and update apps - https://helpx.adobe.com/creative-cloud/help/install-apps.html if this is the case.

  • Re installed photoshop CS5 onto new computer & now plug ins won't work?

    I recently bought a new computer & re-installed photoshop CS5.1 successfully, but can't get the plug ins to work (phototools 2.5 & perfect effects 3, which were a free download with purchase). I am running windows 7 64bit. I copied & pasted them into the plug ins folder (in both applications of photoshop - there is the 32 bit version on 'program files (x86)' & the 64 bit version in 'program files'), but neither will work.

    You probably won't get those plugins to work by just copying them.
    I'd remove the plugins that you copied and pasted and use the phototools 2.5 & perfect effects 3 plugin installers, as they probably install some other files besides just the plugin itself.

  • Cannot Install Photoshop CS5 [Please Help] :(

    I have tried multiple times to install Photoshop CS5; it never works. I have tried using different Internet browsers, with and without the Akamai download application, and by clicking 'Run As Administrator'.
    The first time I tried to install Photoshop CS5, I used the Akamai downloader. Because the Akamai application is a writhing piece of garbage, I, of course, came out with an error. I then decided to download the files directly, without the Akamai downloader.
    After downloading the files directly, I was certain I would not have any issues. Wrong. Windows found a way to piss me off and gave me an error while extracting the files using PowerArchiver. The error stated that the following:
    "Error writing to a file.
    "Possible reasons: Disk full or no write permissions.
    "Please check if you have permissions to write to this folder.
    "Vista users:
    "In Microsoft Vista, writing to certain folders is not allowed (i.e. C:\Program Files). You will need to start PowerArchiver as Administrator. If you are extracting files you can use drag and drop from PowerArchiver main interface to extract files to that error.
    "Error: 0."
    I have checked my hard drive space - I have enough space. I checked the write permissions of the folder I was extracting to - I am permitted to extract the files to that folder. I have tried 'Run As Administrator' in PowerArchiver, and still no success.
    Could someone please assist me because I want to use try out Photoshop CS5 until it expires, and I can't do so if Windows wants to screw me over all the time.
    Some Things to Note...
    I am using Windows 7 64-Bit
    My computer can handle Photoshop CS5 (I checked)
    I have tried using Firefox and Google Chrome
    I have tried using the Akamai downloader and not using the Akamai downloader
    I have tried multiple fixes
    Windows is trash - I knew I should have bought a Mac...
    Thanks in advance I apologize for my sour attitude. I am just really fristrated at the moment.

    I feel your frustration, but take heart, Windows 7 is not trash.  You just need to become its master, and doing so requires different machinations and skills than with past versions.
    Let me also say that the greener grass on the Mac side is spray paint.  Trust me, I am involved with both.  Windows is more powerful - once you master it.
    First, if you're having problems you perceive as the system blocking you from getting what you want done, may I suggest that you may be a candidate for disabling User Account Control.  This is not a decision to be taken lightly - you should fully understand what UAC does for you and why you might want to disable it.
    In a nutshell, UAC makes everything you do, even though you may be logged-in with an account that's in the Administrators group, operate as though you are a lowly non-privileged user, and attempts to prompt you with an annoying dialog every time you try to do something that requires Administrator privileges.  I say "attempts" because it doesn't always happen when it needs to.
    I suggest reading further here:
    http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/User_Account_Control
    If you become convinced you'd rather be an Administrator all the time, and are willing to take the risk that software you run from now on will be able to make arbitrary changes to your computer that require Administrator privileges, you can disable UAC; it's really quite simple to do.
    To do so, click Start and type UAC into the search box.  When Change User Account Control Settings comes up, click it.  Drag the slider to the bottom, confirm the dialog, then reboot your system.
    If you had any problems because of UAC, this will work around them.
    ALL THAT SAID...
    I suspect your problems run deeper than just UAC, and possibly disabling UAC won't help you with this specific problem.  You may have permissions issues...
    Did you upgrade your operating system from an earlier version?
    Was the disk originally formatted or the data put on the disk by another computer?

  • App manager will not let me install photoshop after I put it in trash and emptied?

    When I go to the app manager it says "up to date" for photoshop and won't let me install it again. I have read a bit and found a suggestion to look in utilities to properly uninstall it, but there are no photoshop files in the utilities folder and when i search photoshop nothing comes up on my computer. Another suggestion I read was to completely uninstall everything, but I would really rather not have to go through all my ID Muse, and AI files and upload the ones I want to keep to the cloud. Is there a workaround for this problem at all? When I do click the adobe air uninstall thing it just says it will delete Adobe Muse, photoshop doesn't show up. I wish it wasn't so hard to get the program I'm paying for even though I understand I made a mistake uninstalling it incorrectly.
    Thank you

    Thanks Nancy. I followed your advice, but photoshop still does not show up on the cleaner tool. The programs that show up are;
    Creative Suite 6 Design Standard
    Adobe Muse
    Adobe InDesign CS6 Application Base Files
    AdobeCreativeCloudDriver
    and Adobe Illustrator CS6 Core
    Like I said, since I don't want to impact my ID and AI files I'm not sure if Creative Suite 6 is what I want to uninstall or if that would delete ALL my Adobe files? I'll await a reply or start another thread. Thanks

    Apple provides repeat downloads as a convenience, not a substitute for your computers being the primary source of file transfers.  All your iTunes information such as playlists, ratings, etc. are in a file on your computer, not in the Apple Store.  Typically when you move computers you copy the whole iTunes folder and everything it contains to the new computer.  Moving media files can be done with a drive, or by Home Sharing.  You can also redownload media but let's say somebody desiced Apple may no longer sell a certain album; it cannot be downloaded again but if you already have it on a computer you can move your copy of the file.
    5 authorizations:  Some households have multiple computers.  If you want ot use one with an account it has to be authroized.  It means you can use any computer in the house to make purchaes, etc.
    Okay, my 5 minute typing limit for any one response is up.

  • Re-installing Photoshop CS5 (Win) on Mac

    Hello,
    A few years ago, I purchased Photoshop CS5 Windows Student Edition. I am now trying to install it onto my new mac desktop. Problem number 1: it won't read. Problem #2: I can't find a way to install my already purchased product onto desktop without having to repurchase a second version of it. Since I already own all the entry codes needed and still able to access validation, I was wondering if there's a way to install Photoshop CS5 electronically. Because that's all I'm missing, the installing CD or link. Please... Help

  • Can I install photoshop CS5 on a PC with an intel Core i3 processor?

    Can I install photoshop CS5 on a PC with an intel Core i3 processor? Will it run?

    I expect it would install and run, but Photoshop became resource hungry with CS4, and I suspect that a typical i3 system is not going to have heaps of RAM, so it won't run very well.  What is the operating system?  I'm guessing it is 32bit

  • Just installed Photoshop CS5 and cannot figure out tablet sensitivity...

    Hi everyone.
    Previously with my computer running Photoshop Elements 7, I had no problems using the brush tool with my Tooya Pro tablet. The harder I pressed, the thicker the line would become up to the full diameter of the brush selected.
    Just yesterday I installed Photoshop CS5 (wahoo!), and the brush works fine with the tablet- except there doesn't seem to be any pressure sensitivity. Clicking "Tablet pressure controls size" box on the top tool bar doesn't appear to do anything, and neither does setting the size jitter to "pen pressure" in shape dynamics in the brush menu.
    Does anyone know anything else I should try? I've gone back to PSE7 and found out it still works as it used to, but just for some reason it won't work right in CS5.
    Thanks for any advice!
    Additional details: running Windows 7 64 bit.
    I have tried the solutions in this troubleshooting section: http://help.adobe.com/en_US/photoshop/cs/using/WS7EE7587B-452F-4271-8252-898FCA43C27Ca.htm l#ionCTAAnchor

    Did you try it with the 32 bit version of Photoshop CS5?
    Normally both a 32 and 64 bit version are installed on an x64 system.
