OLD PHOTOSHOP 4.0 and 6.0 install in Windows 8.1

I have an OLD PHOTOSHOP 4.0 CD and a PHOTOSHOP 6.0 UPGRADE CD.
I am running Windows 8.1
I had no problem in Windows 7 installing the 4.0 CD - then the UPGRADE 6.0 over that.
But Windows 8.1 would not allow an install of PHOTOSHOP 4.0 but probably would accept a full PHOTOSHOP 6.0 install...... but I only have the 6.0 UPGRADE.
So I have a Catch 22.
If I try to install the 6.0 UPGRADE CD first it wants to look through my HDD for the 4.0 install first.
But - it isn't there cause it wouldn't install on Windows 8.1.
WHAT TO DO ???????

You should not need to have 4.0 installed, you should only need the serial number from it to confirm the upgrade installation of CS6.  When you are activating CS6 it should provide the option of specifying the serial number for 4.0 when it is unable to find a qualifying version on the machine.

  • I bought Photoshop Elements 12 and I cannot install it..It says invalid serial number and says invalid Redemption Code

    I bought Photoshop Elements 12 and I cannot install it..It says invalid serial number and says invalid Redemption Code when I try that way.  I need the program and because I have opened the box it can't be returned to the store.  I have over $100 tied up in this product that I can't use.  Someone said install the free trial version...Ok, I did...but it is just a 30 day trial and I want the full version of the product I paid for!! So how do I get a valid serial number?  The serial number on the box and the redemption code card both come up as invalid.  Not a very happy customer right now!!

    You will need to contact Adobe Support by chat or by phone.

  • Where to download and how to install X Window System for Oracle Linux 5 ?

    Folks,
    Hello. I am using Oracle Linux 5 and Oracle Database 11g for PIA.
    Before install Oracle DB 11g into Oracle Linux 5, we need to install X Window System according to the document page 2 http://download.oracle.com/docs/cd/B28359_01/install.111/b32285.pdf
    But I don't know where to download and how to install X Window System for Oracle Linux 5.
    Can any folk provide a link to download X Window System and tutorial to install it for Oracle Linux 5 ?

    You can address the problem in a number of different ways.
    You can install X-windows from the installation DVD or setup access to the Oracle public software repository as described in http://public-yum.oracle.com. In which case, the command to install X-windows is: yum groupinstall "X Window System"
    Or, you login remotely and and use SSH with X-forwarding, in which case the software on the server will use the X-Windows server on your client system. This is probably the preferred way since you do not have X-windows installed on the server. For more details about SSH forwarding and howto, please see Install Oracle 11gR2 on Ubuntu Linux 11.04 (64-bit) Howto part 2 Oracle Universal Installer.

  • How do I get my photos and books after installing new Windows?

    I installed a new Windows 7 on an SSD to speed up the desktop computer. The new iTunes, of course, was empty. Now I want to sync my iPad with the new iTunes but I'm afraid that I will loose all my books (freely available ones that I downloaded and imported to the media library as well as work related PDFs).
    All the data should be still on the old drive (that still is in the computer) somewhere (so I'm hoping that my problem can be resolved). I was able to find the music but where is all the other data? Can I use a backup made on the old iTunes? Where would I find that?
    When connecting the iPad iTunes says that the iPad is tied to another iTunes database (well, yes, but not by my choosing, would have loved to continue using my old one, thank you) and I either can erase everything from my iPad and start with this one or never ever sync again. So, do I choose the rock or the hard place?
    This restrictive syncing is a real pain in the neck. Have the same problem when I go out to sea (i.e. without internet connection) and my MacBook Pro. Everything from the iPad is erased and replaced by the MacBook Pro contents. If I forgot to add anything to the MacBook, tough luck.
    Anyone who can tell me where to find the documents from iBooks on my old drive and how to get them included in the new system's iTunes?
    Syncing across different devices? No such thing in reality. iCloud sounds great but seems useless...
    Prieni

    You should be able to copy iTunes purchases (which should include PDFs in the iBooks app even though they aren't purchases) off the iPad to your computer's iTunes via File > Transfer Purchases.
    On Windows 7 your backup should be stored under :
    \Users\(username)\AppData\Roaming\Apple Computer\MobileSync\Backup\
    But without restoring onto a device you probably won't be able to make much sense of the backup files.
    If you want to copy off photos that were originally synced from a computer you will need a third-party app such as Simple Transfer which can copy them off via your wifi network. But as photos are 'optimised' when they are synced to the iPad, any that you then copy back to a computer may not be exactly the same as they originally were on your computer

  • Photoshop CS6 Menus and Icons too small on Windows 8.1 with 4K UHD display

    Hello,
    So I have seen that I am not the first one to ask this question, but I have yet to find any true resolutions.  I recently bought anew laptop, a Lenovo with a 4K UHD display which I already love for so many things.  But, like a few other programs, the high resolution means the icons and menu text of PS CS6 are incredibly small, which may be alright on a TV, but on a laptop screen, it make it incredibly difficult to work.  I have tried all sorts of different approaches in Windows, such as changing the OS font sizes and icon sizes, which do indeed change everything else on the computer, but PS is still the same tiny size.  I have also increased the text size under the interface preferences to large, but with little real change.  I understand why this is happening, but I am hoping that there is some sort of workaround, beyond just bumping down my screen resolution, which defeats the whole purpose of using UHD to edit photos.  I have heard rumors of being able to code in some UI changes manually, but have found no concrete examples of how to actually do that. 
    I am sure that it would not take Adobe too much time and effort to create an update to help with scaling, but they are very set on pushing forward with Creative Clound, leaving the rest of us loyal customers to the dust until we pay up.  If anyone has found any resolutions or workarounds, I'd really appreciate it.  Thank you. 

    Well other than that, I can't offer anything else as a forum volunteer. I have no idea if anything, what Adobe plans to do for CS6.
    I do know that Photoshop CC 2014 has a 200% ui feature for Windows and you might like the Photography Plan which for $10 monthly includes Photoshop CC 2014 and Lightroom for $10/month.
    You can trial CC 2014 to see if it does solve your situation

  • I have a MacBook (mid 2009) running 10.8.3 and want to install a Windows operating system. Which version of Boot Camp and which version of windows do I need.

    I have a MacBook (mid 2009) running 10.8.3 and need to install Windows, at least XP, to run some software for work. What version of Boot Camp will work and where do I get a licensed copy of XP or Windows 7

    The version of Boot Camp on your Mac will work, you must buy a copy of Windows 7 or 8 (not XP)

  • ITunes install when old HD with library and media is installed as 2nd local HD on new computer

    Hello support community:
    My (Windows 7) laptop died unexpectedly. I didn't have a chance to consolidate my itunes library, and my files are not all in the itunes folder.
    The replacement (Windows 7) laptop has space for a second hard drive, so I installed the hard drive from the dead laptop, with all my music files and itunes library. All my old data is now on my new Local Disc E. Windows is installed on C. I could copy all my music to C, but will probably leave E installed for the life of this laptop anyway.
    Is it possible to move my itunes library data, such as playlists, play counts and star ratings,  to the new itunes installation?
    Will iTunes library search for the media files on the same drive where the library folder is located (E:folder\subfolder) or at the path where it was previosly located (C:\folder\subfolder)
    Thanks for any advice!
    -M

    If you still have the old computer, you should be able to connect the iPad, run iTunes and restore from a backup from a previous sync.  Now that you have it updated, you will not need to do that again.

  • Can Photoshop elements 7 and 8 be install at the same time?

    I currently have 7 installed, can I install 8 trial without uninstalling or breaking 7?

    Yes, different versions of PSE can coexist peacefully. Just be sure to run one version at a time. Also, if you use the Organizer, beware that changes you make to the PSE 8 catalog won't be visible in the PSE 7 catalog and vice versa.
