Photoshop CS Installation Problem

My husband's computer had a malicious virus and the geeks had to wipe his hard drive.  We've been able to load all programs but Photoshop CS ( yes, we're out of date).  Is it necessary to upgrade Photoshop, or is there a fix.
I was able to use this disc on my last new computer.  Ideas?

Adobe Photoshop CS is not available from Adobe. Use the disk that was provided to you when you purchased Photoshop CS as to the best of my knowedge that was not available as a download.

  • Photoshop elements installation problems

    Hi there. I have a purchased disk of adobe photoshop elements 9 and i am having problems installing it on my MAC.
    I tried to download it as well in case there was something wrong with the CD but the same problem appeared as well. It says "Inconsistency in the installer database. Please restart your computer and install again." This appears in the middle of the installation procedure. My MAC runs OS X and the version is 10.6.7.
    I also tried the adobe support advisor but it didn't detect anything.
    PLease help

    Hi Jeff,
    thank you for you're answer. As already posted before, i tried every solution that came from the adobe support or i found in the web.
    This included the solutions in the posted link. I deinstalled every adobe product on my Laptop and my complete antivirus and web Protection suite. I even made changes in the registry, that were suggested from the adobe support.
    I had solutions from adobe developer after analycing my log files. That is the reason I spent this much time with installations tries.
    That is the reason I asked for a service pack, because I see no chance in getting this version installed.
    will there be a patch or something like that?
    thanks Michael

  • Photoshop 12 Installation Problems (boxed version)

    Clicking on setup.exe (in Windows 7) produces this error message: adobe photoshop elements12\setup.exe is not a valid Win32 application.

    Generally this error occurs because there is a problem reading the disk. Try copying the contents of the disk to a folder on your desktop and then running Setup.exe from there. If you get an error during the copy process (like and in/out error), then there is some sort of damage to the disk. Simply go to Adobe.com and download the trial version of the software. Your serial number will turn it into a full version (the trial installation files are exactly the same as the files on your disk).

  • Photoshop CS5 installation problem

    Hi there,
    I had PS4 and PS5 co-existing without problems on my system. Finally, I decided yesterday to uninstall PS CS4 since all my plug-ins are now available for CS5. I removed CS4 using CleanMyMac, which unfortunately also uninstalled CS5. No problem, I thought, and reinstalled from my CS5 download - and PS5 won't install! No Photoshop CS5.app on my system! I verified permission, repaired them, had no other programs open during install. I tried three times, three failures, and now I don't know what to do! I have no back up available since I am away on vacation and my back-ups are at home. I need this for x-mas! Any help is greatly appreciated. Thanks in advance,
    Regards
    GS

    Are any errors being reported or does the installer claim success?
    If remaining parts of the old installations should be part of the problem maybe the Cleaner Tool can help.

  • Photoshop cs4 installation problems

    hi im having big problems getting Photoshop on and off of my mac book iv tried to uninstall it (i did it complete wrong by dragging and dropping it in to the trash i now know that’s not the way) iv put a post on the mac web site and was told to do this,
    "You won't be able to install CS4 until is is properly uninstalled. In the Utilities folder, you'll find the folder "Adobe Installers". There will be an alias in there named per the Adobe software you installed. Double click that to launch it and start the uninstall process. You'll get a list of software you can put check boxes in to remove from the hard drive. There's also a Select All button at the top.
    This may or may not work since you already manually removed some of the items the uninstaller will be looking for. If it appears to finish, then try installing PS CS4 again.
    The blunt approach is to use Adobe's Clean Script tool. This will remove anything to do with any piece of CS4 files from the hard drive. You will definitely be able to reinstall after running it. Be aware though that it will remove ALL CS4 software on the hard drive. InDesign, Flash Pro, Photoshop, etc. You don't get to pick and choose."
    non of this worked  and when i put the disk in it brings up the setup program but wont accept the serial number and when i try to install the trial version it asks for the disk to be inserted which is all ready in the disk tray iv got no idea what to do can any one help me please

    any one ????

  • Photoshop CS3 Installation Problems

    A customer has purchased Photoshop CS3 & is having problems installing on Vista Business
    If I logon to the Users PC as Administrator & install it there, what steps will I need to take to access it from the Users account
    Thanks

    Well, who told you it was for a Mac? If you bought it at a retail store, you should be able to take it back there and exchange it for a Mac copy. If you bought it used, you should demand a refund from whoever you bought it from.
    Of course, that is all assuming it's actually a Windows copy, and there's not something else going on... What does it say on the CD? My Photoshop Elements CD is very clearly labeled "Macintosh."

  • Photoshop Element Installation Problems

    As the installation wizard gets to the end, it stops and says that the wizard was interrupted and I need to run setup again.  It deletes all the files that was installed.  It happens when it says "rolling back actions".  I am running Vista Ultimate 64x system.  Please help someone.  This is the free trial I am trying to install.

    With my VERY grateful thanks to Aedan, I have now successfully loaded Elements 8 on to my PC (XP) and my laptop (Vista Home Premium)..hooray. Try the following steps which worked for me:
    C:\program files\common files\Adobe pcd\cache...delete "cache.db" to re-cycle bin.
    Try installing Elements 8 again.
    These steps sorted my Elements 8 loading problems so hope that they work for you too. Please let me know if this works for you.
    Go Well.

  • Photoshop CS4 installation problem

    I have bought CS4 and installed it successfully. I now have the upgrade disc to CS4 extended (bought from Adobe). When I run the disc, it offers to install CS4 NOT extended. When i install...i have the basic program ...not extended. Why?. I tried uninstalling the original version and re-installing from the disc...original version still on my computer.
    I uninstalled, re-installed a trial version of cs4 extended from the web..it would only acccept the serial number from CS4 and NOT my extended box...
    I cannot seem to get extended onto my computer! any ideas?

    The old version must be deactivated and uninstalled. Extended features are solely differentiated by the serial. If your PS Standard is part of a suite, then the whole suite must be upgraded, e.g. Design Standard to Design Premium, not just Photoshop. Only one serial can be valid at any one time, so there is no such thing as having a suite and a separate PS extended on the same system.

  • Troubleshoot installation problems in Photoshop Lightroom on Windows Vista

    This document can help you to resolve system errors that occur while you use Adobe Photoshop Lightroom on Windows Vista. System errors can manifest in many different ways, including (but not limited to) the following:
    A blank or flickering dialog box
    A frozen cursor or screen
    A blue screen
    An unexpected restart
    An error message such as:
    "Setup is unable to load the installation script file."
    "Unable to create a directory under C:\Windows\System. Please check write-access to the directory."
    "Uninstalling: C:\Program Files\Adobe\Adobe Photoshop Lightroom refers to a location that is unavailable. It could be on a hard drive on this computer, or on a network. Check to make sure that the disk is properly inserted, or that you are connected to the Internet or your network, and then try again. If it still cannot be located, the information might have been moved to a different location."
    Note: If you attempt to install Photoshop Lightroom to a drive that doesn't have the minimum required space available, the installation will fail. You must then completely reinstall to another location that has sufficient free space.
    Many different factors can cause system errors, including conflicts among device drivers, applications, operating system settings, hardware, and corrupt elements in specific files. Although a system error may occur only when you work with Photoshop Lightroom, Photoshop Lightroom may not necessarily be the cause; it may be the only application that uses enough memory or processor cycles to expose the problem.
    To benefit most from this document, perform the tasks in order. Keep track of the tasks that you perform and the results of each, including errors and other problems. Adobe Technical Support can use this information to better assist you if you need to call.
    You must be logged on as an administrator to perform some of the procedures in this document.
    Important: Some of the procedures in this document may initiate a User Access Control dialog that asks for your permission to continue. Read the details in the dialog to determine if you want to continue. If you choose to cancel the dialog, then you will not be able to continue with that troubleshooting step.
    The steps in this document that refer to the Control Panel are in reference to the Classic view. For information on switching the Control Panel to the Classic view and many other common OS procedures, see Common Microsoft Windows Vista procedures (TechNote kb401275)
    Some of these procedures require you to locate hidden files and hidden folders. Some procedures require you to locate files by their full file names, which include extensions (for example, example_filename.ini). By default, Windows Explorer doesn't show hidden files, hidden folders, and file name extensions that it recognizes.
    To show hidden files, hidden folders, and all file name extensions in Windows Explorer:
    In Windows Explorer, choose Organize > Folder And Search Options.
    Click the View tab in the Folder Options dialog box.
    In Advanced Settings, select Show Hidden Files And Folders.
    Deselect Hide Extensions For Known File Types.
    Click OK.
    Note: The procedures in this document are based on the default interface of Windows Vista. If the interface is customized, some procedures may vary. For example, a commonly encountered difference is the navigation to Control Panel from the Start menu: You may navigate Start > Settings > Control Panel instead of Start > Control Panel. Additionally, the procedures in this document assume you are using the Classic View of the Control Panel: To view the Control Panel in the Classic View, click Switch To Classic View on the Control Panel navigation bar on the left side of the window.
    Beginning troubleshooting
    The tasks in this section can help you resolve the most common system errors. Before performing any of these tasks, back up all personal files (for example, Photoshop Lightroom files you created). Always restart the computer after a system error occurs to refresh system memory. Continuing to work without restarting the computer may compound the problem.
    1.Make sure that the system meets the minimum requirements for PhotoshopLightroom.
    Photoshop Lightroom may not run correctly on a system that doesn't meet the following requirements:
    Intel Pentium 4 or equivalent processor
    Microsoft Windows XP, Windows Vista, Windows 7
    768 MB of RAM (1 GB recommended)
    1 GB of available hard-disk space
    CD-ROM drive
    In addition to these requirements, a video card that supports 24-bit (16 million) or more colors, and a resolution of 1024 x 768 or higher, is recommended.
    * Photoshop Lightroom 1.0 will install and run on Windows Vista but Adobe cannot guarantee the quality of the software experience until Adobe fully certifies Photoshop Lightroom for use on Windows Vista.
    To check basic system information, such as processor speed and how much RAM is installed, choose Start > Control Panel > System.
    2. Delete previously installed application files, especially if you had the public beta version of Photoshop Lightroom installed.
    To delete files from a previous Adobe Photoshop Lightroom installation attempt:
    Choose Start > Control Panels > Add or Remove Programs.
    Select Adobe Photoshop Lightroom and choose to remove it.
    Close the Add Or Remove Programs window and the Control Panel.
    Open Windows Explorer.
    If the Lightroom.exe file is still in the Program Files\Adobe\Adobe Photoshop Lightroom folder, delete it.
    If the Lightroom Preferences.agprefs file is still in the Documents and Settings/[username]/Application Data/Adobe/Lightroom/Preferences folder, delete it.
    Empty the Recycle Bin.
    Try to reinstall. If you cannot, continue with the next two sections in this step:
    Move all the folders under the Users/[username]/AppData/Roaming/Adobe/Lightroom folder into a new folder on the desktop; name the folder Lightroom Presets. These are the presets that were installed with the application and that you created.
    Move all the folders under the Users/[username]/Pictures/Lightroom/Lightroom Previews.lrdata folder into a new folder on the desktop; name the folder Lightroom Previews. If you have a large number of images, you can move this folder back to its original location before you open Photoshop Lightroom, once it's installed. Or you can delete this folders to re-create it when Photoshop Lightroom opens. If there are further problems with Photoshop Lightroom after it's installed, it might be due to corruption in the previews, in which case you need to delete this folder and re-create it.
    Try to reinstall.Important: Do not delete the Lightroom Database.lrdb file!
    If there are further problems with Photoshop Lightroom after it's installed, these issues may be due to corruption in the preset files you created, in which case you need to remove them and re-create them, or test each preset individually.
    Note: If you can reinstall, and if this is not the first time you opened Photoshop Lightroom, then Photoshop Lightroom will look for a library database file. If it does not find a library in the expected location, it will prompt you to create a new library, locate the library, or exit. Exit will close the dialog box, and Photoshop Lightroom will not open. Although you can tell Photoshop Lightroom to locate your library, it's best to put it back in the default location and then open the application.
    If you can reinstall, close Photoshop Lightroom and then copy any presets you created from the Lightroom presets on the desktop back into the Users/[username]/AppData/Roaming/Adobe/Lightroom folder.
    If you cannot reinstall, then move the Lightroom Database.lrdb file from the Users/[username]/Pictures/Lightroom folder into a new folder called Lightroom Database File and save this file on the desktop. This is your database, if you previously had Photoshop Lightroom installed.
    Reinstall Photoshop Lightroom. If you cannot reinstall, continue with the next task in this document.
    3. Log in as Administrator before installingPhotoshopLightroom.
    In Windows Vista, you must be logged in with local (that is, machine) Administrator rights to install Photoshop Lightroom. If you don't have administrator rights, contact your system administrator for assistance.
    4. Check the CD and CD-ROM drive.
    Dust or dirt on a CD can interfere with an installation and prevent the CD-ROM drive from recognizing the CD. Examine the Photoshop Lightroom CD for dirt, dust, or fingerprints. Gently wipe the bottom of the CD from the center outward with a soft, lint-free cloth.
    Verify that the CD-ROM drive can read other CDs. If it can't, examine the CD caddy or loading tray for dirt, and clean it with a lint-free cloth. If it still can't read other CDs, contact the CD-ROM drive manufacturer or the computer manufacturer.
    5. Install current Windows service packs and other updates.
    Updates to the Windows operating system improve its performance and compatibility with applications. You can obtain Windows service packs and other updates from the Microsoft website at www.windowsupdate.com. For assistance installing service packs and other updates, contact Microsoft technical support.
    Important: Before you install a system update, check the system requirements for Photoshop Lightroom (and any third-party software or hardware you may use with Photoshop Lightroom ) to ensure compatibility. If the update isn't listed, then contact Adobe or the manufacturer of your third-party software or hardware.
    6. InstallPhotoshopLightroomfrom the desktop and use the default installation folder.
    Some system components such as device drivers and virus protection utilities can conflict with the Photoshop Lightroom installer and result in an incomplete or failed installation, or they can cause problems when you install to a folder or when you use a path to the default installation folder that contains a special character, such as #. To prevent these conflicts, install Photoshop Lightroom from the desktop, and use the default folder name and path.
    If Photoshop Lightroom autoplay displays, click Cancel when you are requested to Select the Language.
    Copy the Adobe Photoshop Lightroom folder from the Photoshop Lightroom CD-ROM to the desktop.
    Open the Adobe Photoshop Lightroom folder on the desktop.
    Double-click the Adobe Photoshop Lightroom.msi file, and follow the on-screen instructions.
    7.Re-create thePhotoshopLightroompreferences file.
    Re-create the Photoshop Lightroom preferences file to eliminate problems that a damaged preferences file might cause:
    Quit Photoshop Lightroom.
    Rename the Lightroom Preferences.agprefs file (for example, to Lightroom Preferences.old) in the Users/[username]/AppData/Roaming/Adobe/Lightroom/Preferences folder.
    Start Photoshop Lightroom. Photoshop Lightroom creates a new preferences file.
    If the problem continues, the preferences file isn't the cause. To restore custom settings, delete the new preferences file and restore the original name of the previous preferences file.
    8.Install and run Photoshop Lightroom while no other applications are running.
    Some applications may interfere with installing or running Photoshop Lightroom. Virus protection programs are meant to stop viruses from installing on your computer. Before installing or starting Photoshop Lightroom, disable other applications, including virus protection programs and startup items (items that start automatically with Windows).
    To disable startup items and non Microsoft services:
    Quit all applications.
    Choose Start, type msconfig in the Search text box, and press Enter.
    Write down all unselected items under the Startup and Services tabs.
    Click the General tab, and choose Selective Startup.
    Click the Startup tab and select Disable All.
    Click the Services tab and select Hide All Microsoft Services.
    Select Disable All then re-select FLEXnet Licensing Service. If you are unsure whether an item is essential, then leave it deselected (disabled).
    Click Apply, and restart Windows for the changes to take effect.
    Note: Upon restart, you'll be notified that the System Configuration utility has made changes to the way that Windows starts up. Click OK. When the System Configuration utility appears, click Cancel.
    Right-click icons in the Notification Area and close or disable any startup items that are still active.
    9. Install Photoshop Lightroom to a different hard disk after disabling startup items and installing from the hard disk.
    Hard disk problems can prevent Photoshop Lightroom from installing correctly. By installing Photoshop Lightroom to a different physical hard disk, you can verify if the original hard disk is preventing installation. First, completely remove Photoshop Lightroom from the hard disk.
    To install Photoshop Lightroom to a different hard disk after disabling startup items:
    Follow the steps in task 8 above to disable startup items.
    If Photoshop Lightroom autoplay displays, click Cancel when you are requested to Select the Language.
    Copy the Adobe Photoshop Lightroom folder from the Photoshop Lightroom CD-ROM to the desktop.
    Open the Adobe Photoshop Lightroom folder on the desktop.
    Double-click the Adobe Photoshop Lightroom.msi file, and follow the on-screen instructions.
    Click Change and select a different hard disk in the Change Current Destination Folder window. Click OK, and then follow the on-screen instructions.
    Intermediate troubleshooting
    If the tasks in the previous section don't solve the problem, try the following intermediate troubleshooting tasks.
    10. Install and run Photoshop Lightroom in a new user account.
    Create a new user account that has the same permissions as the account that you use when the problem occurs. If the problem doesn't recur, the original user account may be damaged. For instructions on creating a new user account, see To add a new user to the computer in Windows Help or contact your system administrator.
    11. Optimize handling of temporary files by Windows Vista.
    Windows and applications store working data in temporary (.tmp) files that they create on the hard disk. Excessive or outdated temporary files can interfere with performance of Windows or applications.
    Delete temporary files by using the Disk Cleanup utility included with Windows or by using the following instructions. Make sure that at least 1 GB of free space is available on the hard disk to which temporary files are written. To start Disk Cleanup, choose Start > All Programs > Accessories > System Tools > Disk Cleanup. For information about Disk Cleanup, see Windows Help.
    To manually delete temporary files:
    Note: Windows deletes temporary files when Windows and applications close normally. However, when Windows or an application crashes, temporary files can accumulate on the hard disk. Windows may prevent you from deleting some temporary files as they may be in use. Delete as many temporary files as you possibly can, without deleting the files that are in use.
    Quit all applications.
    Choose Start and type %tmp% in the Search text box and press Enter.
    Delete the contents of this folder.
    Note the drive letter where this directory is located.
    To ensure that at least 1 GB of free space is available on the hard disk to which temporary files are written:
    Choose Start > My Computer.
    Select the drive noted in step 4. Right click and select Properties.
    Confirm the drive has at least 1 GB of free space.
    12. Repair and defragment hard disks.
    System errors can occur if hard disks contain damaged sectors or fragmented files. Repair and defragment hard disks, either by using the Error-checking tool and Disk Defragmenter utility included with Windows or by using a third-party disk utility. You should run such utilities on each hard disk or partition. More information about the Error-checking tool and Disk Defragmenter appears below; for more information about a third-party disk utility, refer to the documentation for the utility.
    The Error-checking tool repairs bad sectors, lost allocation units and file fragments, cross-linked files, and invalid file names. To access the Error-checking tool, choose Start > Computer, right-click the desired hard disk, and choose Properties from the menu. In the Local Disk Properties dialog box, click the Tools tab, and then click Check Now in the Error-checking area.
    Note: To prevent Disk Defragmenter from moving files to bad sectors of a disk, run the Error-checking tool before running Disk Defragmenter.
    Disk Defragmenter rearranges the files and free space on your computer so that files are stored in contiguous units and free space is consolidated in one contiguous block. To access the Disk Defragmenter utility, choose Start > All Programs > Accessories > System Tools > Disk Defragmenter.
    13. Scan the system for viruses.
    Use current anti-virus software to check the system for viruses. Virus infections can damage software and cause system errors. For more information, see the documentation for the anti-virus software.
    14. Try to install Photoshop Lightroomon a different computer.
    Try to install Photoshop Lightroom on a different computer to determine if the problem is unique to your computer. If the problem is unique to your computer, contact the computer manufacturer; if the problem occurs on multiple computers, contact Adobe Technical Support.
    Advanced Troubleshooting
    If the tasks in the previous section don't resolve the problem, you may be able to resolve the problem by reinstalling Windows Vista and Photoshop Lightroom, reformatting your hard disk and reinstalling Windows Vista and Photoshop Lightroom, or by determining if hardware is conflicting with Photoshop Lightroom.
    Disclaimer: Adobe doesn't support hardware and provides these procedures as a courtesy only. For further assistance, contact the hardware manufacturer or an authorized reseller. If you troubleshoot hardware problems yourself, you may void the warranty for your computer.
    Note: Before you remove or rearrange hardware, turn off and disconnect power to the computer and any peripheral devices.
    15. Log in using the built-in Administrator account.
    The built-in Administrator account has a higher access level to the system than a normal local administrator account. By default the built-in Administrator account is disabled. For information about enabling and logging in to the built-in Administrator account, contact your system administrator. You can also refer to this support document on the Microsoft support website: http://support.microsoft.com/kb/926183/en-us?spid=11737&sid=73.
    16. Reformat the hard disk, and reinstall only Windows Vista and Photoshop Lightroom.
    Reformat the hard disk, and then install only Windows Vista and Photoshop Lightroom from the original installation media. Reformatting a disk erases all files it contains, so be sure to back up all personal files first. Also make sure that you have all application and system disks.
    For instructions on performing a clean installation of Windows Vista, see document 918884, "How to install Windows Vista" on the Microsoft website at http://support.microsoft.com.
    Note: Don't install additional software or hardware until you're sure that the problem is resolved. Don't back up the hard disk and restore Windows and Photoshop Lightroom instead of reinstalling them. If the problem is caused by an application or Windows, and either one is restored instead of reinstalled, the problem may recur.
    After you reformat the hard disk and reinstall Windows and Photoshop Lightroom, try to re-create the problem:
    If the problem no longer occurs, then install other applications one at a time and try to re-create the problem after each installation. If the problem occurs after an installation, then the recently installed application may be the cause.
    If the problem occurs when only Windows and Photoshop Lightroom are installed, then the cause may be hardware-related, and you should contact the hardware manufacturer or an authorized reseller for assistance.
    17. Check for problems with RAM modules.
    Ensure that the RAM modules are installed properly and are not the cause of your problem. Do one or both of the following:
    Change the order of the installed modules.
    Remove all but the minimum number of modules needed to run Windows and [product], and test to see if the problem persists. If it does, replace the modules you removed and remove the others, testing again to see if the problem recurs. If it doesn't, then one or more of the removed modules are the cause. For assistance, contact the RAM manufacturer.
