Old version of illustrator and photoshop for older computer

Hi,
I would like to buy an older version of illustrator and photoshop for my slightly older cojputer:
Toshiba Satellite Pro U400-142 - Core 2 Duo T9400 / 2.53 GHz - Centrino 2 - RAM 3 GB - HDD 320 GB
I think that CS 2 creative suite would probably be okay, but I would be really happy to have an even older copy that ran really fast. I have win XP. Does anybody know if it is possible to buy such software now?
I qualify for the educational discont too.
Thanks,
J

Very risky to buy old versions. Make sure you know who you’re buying from and that you’re protected in case it’s pirated or previously registered software.
Adobe does allow for transfer of licenses but this must be done by the seller.

Some questions
Can you do what you want with 3+ year old versions, or do you need the latest features?
Do you want to pay one time for a perpetual license, or do you want to pay monthly rent?

houseofrest,
According to this page, you can use it for CC:
Adobe Illustrator CC for Mac, Windows, PC - Tech specs
Or you can buy CS6:

Illustrator and Photoshop for creating web banners?

My company for years has worked with print products. We recently started creating web banners. We use Illustrator for the layout for print and Photoshop for the layout of web products. I have artists who dont see the difference between the two. They want to continue to create web banners in Illustrator. Or they want to export the Illustrator file into Photoshop with the layers. But, to export it this way it has to be cmyk. ugghhh. Can somebody please give me valuable reasons on what application is best and why? Thank you very much!

>But, to export it this way it has to be cmyk.
Not true.
Illustrator is "best" for vector. Photoshop is "best" for raster.
I would let your artists work in whatever program they feel they produce the "best" art. You should be able to quickly and easily develop a workflow around their needs. If you cannot, then you have your answer too.

Best file for importing images from Illustrator and Photoshop for small file sizes

Hello Adode consults!
I'm in the process of preparing an inDesign file for a school project -- I've already had a few harrowing experiences sending large files to the printer that are too large to process (and a very grumpy computer, etc). The end result will be a poster around 36 inches by 4 or 5 feet.
I'm wondering if there are any best practices for making sure that the files imported into InDesign are a manageable size to begin with. Should I, for instance, be saving each file as a jpeg before placing in Indesign?
Thanks!
-Katherine

No, you should not save every file as JPG before placing it in INDesign. JPG is only usefull for raster images (like photos) without any transparency in high quality.
When you place images use:
For raster images from Photoshop psd (rgb with color profile)
For raster images from Photoshop with form layers, texts or any vector element use PDF (or PDP) with layers.
For vector graphics from Illustrator use AI files or PDF.
For layouts from other InDesign projects use either the INDD itsself or export a PDF/X4.
But to the printer deliver a PDF according to their standards. E.g. when they need CMYK files export as PDF/X1a with the required output color space and the resolution they want. Produce the pdf via Export (Print).
Don't deliver open INDD. File size should for printing projects not be an issue.

Installing classic illustrator and photoshop to Mac os Tiger

How can I install classic illustrator and photoshop applications to Mac os Tiger
Mac OS X (10.4)

Illustrator 10 and Photoshop 7 were the first OSX version, the next version of each they called CS (for Creative Suite, they were really pushing buy the Suite of 4 or 5 Adobe programs which cost big bucks) and the latest versions are CS2. I've heard of many having problems with CS2 so I haven't upgraded. Both Illustrator CS and Photoshop CS work well in Tiger.
But!!... on an Intel Mac programs need to be Universal versions, specifically designed to run on Intel Macs, older version can run but will open in to an emulation mode, Rosetta, that runs much slower, you will be running at least 50% slower than on a G5. But it's not like Classic, you won't even know when Rosetta is running.
And, apparently there are problems converting Illustrator and Photoshop to Universal and it's going to take a while. The rumor is that CS2 will not be updated, you'll have to wait for CS3 and there is no planned release date for that yet.
On the other hand, I read a recent article that said if you install Windows XP on an Intel Mac (Apple has a free program called Boot Camp that will do this but you need to buy XP), then the XP version of Photoshop will run really fast, faster than most boxes running XP. Oooo, the irony!
Anyway, there is a program that allows you to run a Classic emulation on the Intel Macs but I can't find my bookmark on it so you'll have to do a web search (or someone can post it).
I'm assuming you already have the Classic versions. You'd probably be better off getting the Classic emulation and running those until Adobe upgrades to Universal software. Kind of a waste to spend the bucks on brand new versions of Illustrator and Photoshop now when the versions you need are probably a year away.

It should not; removing newer ones may wreck older ones.

Need help about buying the month package (illustrator and photoshop) converting computers

I currently pay for a package where I use
illustrator and photoshop for £15/17 a month. Recently my Macbook is being repaired which is what it was brought/downloaded from but I still need to use the programs. I am currently using my dad's PC at the moment but not sure what to do because I have logged in to my account, but it doesn't recognise that I have already paid for it on this account. Any suggestions??

I am trying to run my registered CS6 Design Standard programs for the first time after install. InDesign runs OK, but Illustrator and Photoshop will only run in trail mode. How do I activate those two?

I can't get my registered versions of CS6 Photoshop and Illustrator to run in full mode. I installed CS6 Design Standard online end of June (an upgrade from CS5.5), on my old MacBook Pro. I didn't run the programs then as I was waiting on arrival of new MacBook Pro. I migrated the programs from my old MacBook to the new, and today tried to run those programs for the first time. InDesign work OK (after an initial hiccup) but Illustrator and Photoshop will only run in trial mode, and won't let me save files. My CS6 Design Standard shows with it's registration in my Adobe Account. All seems in order, but Illustrator and Photoshop won't run in registered mode. Can you please help?

Demons1 in the future please only migrate your documents and settings.
Please use the uninstallers to remove your current installation. They are located in the Applications/Utilities/Adobe Installers folder. Once the uninstall is complete you will also want to run the CC Cleaner Tool. You can find more details at Use the CC Cleaner Tool to solve installation problems | CC, CS3-CS6 - http://helpx.adobe.com/creative-suite/kb/cs5-cleaner-tool-installation-problems.html.
If you need to download a fresh copy of the installation files for Creative Suite 6 you can do so at Download CS6 products.

I am trying to locate my serial numbers for the two creative cloud products? Illustrator and Photoshop.

We subscribed to Adobe Creative Cloud last October, purchasing a single copy of Illustrator and Photoshop.
The Web developer we had subsequently left the company, and I removed and re-assigned the products to our new Web developer in the Adobe Creative Cloud admin console and sent the 'welcome' emails to him.
He said the mails weren't sent, so I re-removed and re-added him in the console but although it states the welcome email has been sent, the user is still marked as pending?
James has fried to use the products, both of which show up as trial versions, asking for the serial numbers to be entered to unlock the full products & I don't have any record of them, nor can I find them under the CC profile?
I purchased the software through Softcat and received confirmation emails from Adobe that the products were activated and ready to download.
What have I done wrong?
All help welcomed!
Regards,
Martin.

Do you at least have the serial-numbers for them? Did you buy discs or download them? What versions, specifically?
If you purchased them as downloads from Adobe, they may be available under My Purchases (or whatever it is called, exactly) if you log into www.adobe.com and check the My Account area, then look at the products you’ve purchased.

Have subscription to current versions of indesign and photoshop, lost a laptop, need older versions

A couple of weeks back, I purchased subscriptions to Indesign and Photoshop, to use on a cutting edge mac laptop.
Then I lost the laptop. I have a police report if you'd like to see it.
Now I'm back running my older mac, with os x 10.5.8 on it. I've got a 10.6 snow leopard disc on the way.
I'd like to be able to download older versions of Indesign and Photoshop.
Even if they're 30-day trials, they'd be helpful, as I've got a project I'm working on I'd like to finish.
Thanks!
- Johnny

You won't get a call from an Adobe employee unless you call them first, and probably not then (the call-back track record is pretty poor). Nobody who is participating in this thread so far works for Adobe, by the way. We're just volunteer users doing our best to help others like you. We do know the current state of licensing and program availability, however, and the information you are getting is correct. Adobe has a price structure, including a few incentives for users of previous versions which don't happen to help you unless you upgrade your OS so you can run the CC subscription versions, and they are not going to change the pricing to make you, or me, or anyone else happy.
I'm sure you can probably find a version of CS3 for sale on the aftermarket, but be very careful. Most of the early version offers are either counterfeit or cannot be registered because they are not eligible for transfer being either education versions or part of the original owner's upgrade chain.
