Photoshop CS "Locked" in windows vista 32 bit

Everything in CS works except for Photoshop. Error msg "failed to initialize. go to properties in windows explorer to unlock". I can't find any tab or button in explorer that has "lock" or "unlock". I've tried uninstalling and reinstalling. Run as administrator is set. All the properties match the same as properties for Illustrator and Indesign. Anti virus and windows defender are turned off. Any suggestions would be appreciated.

Zeno Bokar, YES, YES, YES, that worked. Thank you very much.

  • Is anyone running Photoshop CS6 on a Windows Vista 32 bit machine  without problems

    Is anyone running Photoshop CS6 on a Windows Vista 32 bit machine  without problems? I have over 400 GB,s  free disc space (c drive) and still am getting lots of errors and program closing problems.  I do not have USB3 on my machine so if I purchased a few 256  GB ssd drives would this help it from crashing?
    Thank you in advance for any guidance.

    Jack, as Curt has suggested, available drive space comes well down the list regards a happy experience with Photoshop.   You have also asked a self-defeating question, because the fact you are running Vista, and a 32bit version at that, more or less precludes the ability to run without problems.
    Windows 7 was billed as the first MS OS to need less system resources than its predecessor.  If your system hardware will support 64bit, then consider paying $90 for an OS upgrade  What is your system out of interest?  I have a feeling you are running with just 2Gb RAM, which just isn’t enough.  Post your specs or make and model, and I am sure you’ll get some help with what your mainboard will handle by way of RAM and whether it will support 64bit.

  • Indesign CS3 Locks up (Not Responding) In Windows Vista 64 bit

    Fully updated InDesign CS
    Fully Updated Windows Vista 64 bit
    90% of the time it locks up right away upon opening any file.  When I create a file from scratch it locks up as I try to save or export as a pdf.  Basically I can't touch anything except for the settings under Edit.
    Not sure how to fix it.  I'm a graphic designer, and it's been like this since I reformatted 3 weeks ago, can't accept any projects until I get it up and running again.
    Any ideas?  Any advice is greatly appreciated!
    Thanks

    The subject line says CS3 and the body copy says CS?
    Which is it. Note: CS3 is version 5 and CS is version 3.
    CS3 is the earliest version supported under Vista.

  • How can I get a Windows Vista 32 bit version of Photoshop, please?

    How can I get a Windows Vista 32 bit version of Photoshop, please?

    Hi Kevinhannan,
    No current Photoshop supports this configuration.
    Photoshop CS5 was the last version of Photoshop to support Windows Vista.
    Photoshop Elements 12 was the last version of Photoshop Elements to support Vista as well.
    We no longer offer Photoshop CS5 or Elements 12.
    You might look at Amazon to see if you can get either product listed above. Just be careful when purchasing, make sure you know who you're buying from!
    Regards,
    Pete

  • Want to use Premiere Elements 4 or newer with Windows Vista 64 bit??

    We bought a new pc with Windows Vista 64 bit - but are now having problems using my Photoshop Elements6 and Premiere Elements 4 with our new pc.  it says on the box and on the web - that it is compatible with Vista - so why isn't it working for us?  Do i need to buy something else - and if so what?

    I am not sure completely about Photoshop Elements - but my main issue is with Premiere Elements....i need to find a program that will work so i can work with all my videos.  Trying to find out why it doesn't work or how to get it to work.

  • Camera raw cs5.5 in windows vista 32 bit

    I have to install Photoshop again. Version is CS5.5 on a windows vista 32 bit system. It did what it needed to do. Photoshop runs, Bridge runs. That is all I need. However it installed only camera raw 6.0 something. For my files I need at least camera raw 6.3 or newer. Installation however fails. If I try it alone, it says it needs the application manager, if I install the application mnager, it says everything is up to date (which it is not) and if I try to install camera raw, the application manager window pops open, says it is broken and needs to be updated or reinstalled.
    True, dng converter works, however it is slower than needed, and I would prefer to get it working right. Any suggestions?
    Thanks
    Michael

    Michi555555 I would recommend reviewing the installation log files for the Camera RAW update which is failing to apply.  You can find details on how to locate and interpret the installation log files at Troubleshoot with install logs | CS5, CS5.5, CS6 - http://helpx.adobe.com/creative-suite/kb/troubleshoot-install-logs-cs5-cs5.html.  You are welcome to post any specific errors to this discussion.

  • After rebooting my Windows Vista 64 bit system, could not access iTunes; after uninstalling I tried reinstalling, but it has been running for more than 24 hrs. Should I cancel installation?

    I had been updating my Windows Vista 64 bit system and as a result of a problem, had to reboot my system. Afterwards, I was no longer able to access iTunes.  I got a message stating that there was a problem with some of the files associated with the application.  A phone rep at Apple's Customer Service provided me with emails linking instructions on completely uninstalling and reinstalling iTunes. I did the uninstall, then checked for lingering iTunes files and couldn't completely remove some, but tried intalling the latest version of iTunes. It has been running for roughly 24 hours.  The status bar is green all the way across, and when I try to cancel, I get the following message: "Are you sure you want to cancel iTunes installation?"  I keep hitting "no," but am staring to wonder if there is a problem with the install.  Should it take this long if I have roughly 134 gigs of music?  I can still see the music in my computer's C drive, so I am worried that there is an error, perhpas because I didn't clear out all the lingering C:\Program Files\Common Files\Apple\ and all the lingering C:\Program Files\iTunes\.  Any thoughts?

    It is not just the HP. I have 3 HP computes and 2 Dell computers. 2 of the HP and 1 Dell suffer the iTunes internet block. Took me a while to figure it out also. But, the one thing that is different on the Dell, is that I can leave iTunes installed and not open it and everything works. As soon as I open it, internet access goes down. BUT secure sites (https:) works fine.

  • Can't install itunes on windows vista 64 bit

    I'm trying to install itunes on a windows vista 64 bit machine but keep getting the error message "could not access network location %appdata%\." Does anybody know what is the matter?

    could not access network location %appdata%\
    It looks like it's having trouble getting one of the iTunes preference files in. There's a couple in each user account (usually in C:\Users\<username>\AppData\Local\Apple Computer\iTunes and C:\Users\<username>\AppData\Roaming\Apple Computer\iTunes).
    Has a version of iTunes previously been successfully installed on that PC? If so, was it working properly prior to your doing the current installs?
    What hard drive is your "Users" folder on? Is it the C drive or somewhere else?
    If it's somewhere else, are your Program files also on that other drive or are they on the C drive?

  • Why can't I install Itunes on windows vista 64 bit?

    Why can't I install Itunes on windows vista 64 bit? I have removed all apple software and repeated the reinstall many times but it fails.  I get this complicated error mesage and then the installer rolls back and fails.

    I get this complicated error mesage and then the installer rolls back and fails.
    I'd like to have a closer look at that error message please.
    Generate the error message again. While the error message box is open, hold down the Alt key and hit the PrtSc key. Paste the screenshot into an image file (using a program like Paint), and save the file.
    Start a reply here and click the wee camera icon at the top of the reply window. Click "Choose file", browse to the image file, select the file and click "Open". Now click "Insert file" to insert the screenshot into the reply.

  • Can I install iTunes in separate user accounts on Windows Vista 64-bit?

    Hi,
    My wife and I use different user accounts on Windows Vista 64-bit. Before I go and mess things up on my computer, I wanted ask some questions:
    1) Has anyone has successfully installed iTunes to multiple user account?
    2) If so, has anyone successfully shared the same music root directory for 2 different iTune instances.
    I'm thinking with iTunes very tight integration with the music files (for indexing/searching, etc), that it would be bad to have add/change/delete on the same music root from 2 independent installations.
    Experience OR opinions welcome!

    ) Has anyone has successfully installed iTunes to multiple user account?
    You don't install the iTunes application more than once. Each user account in Windows will have its own iTunes library.
    If so, has anyone successfully shared the same music root directory for 2 different iTune instances.
    Many people have done so. This should help:
    iTunes: How to share music between different accounts on a single computer
    Note that iTunes has no folder-watching capability, so if you add a track in one user account, the other user will have to add that new item manually, either by using the Add To Library command or dragging the item into the iTunes window. There are a couple of potential solutions from other developers, though:

  • Is there a way to install just the 32 bit version of Photoshop CS5 on a Windows 7 64 bit machine?

    I have a custom built Java 6 application that doesn't like Photoshop CS5 64 bit edition.  The program copies over a file from the network to the local machine and then opens it in Photoshop.  The user manipulates the image and saves the changes.  The user then completes the image and the application copies the image back to the server.  The problem we're having is: When we use Photoshop CS5 64-bit, it takes about 2 minutes for Photoshop to open the image.  The file is copied over within 2 seconds and the Photoshop icon on the windows taskbar starts flashing.  But then you spend a few minutes waiting for it to open.
    Some things that I have tried to isolate the problem:
    - I found you can copy the file somewhere else, double click on it and the image will open in Photoshop before the script is able to open the file.
    - I tried uninstalling Photoshop and reinstalling just the 64 bit edition without the 32 bit installation.  The script just stops working in this situation.
    - I tried uninstalling CS5 and installing CS3.  The image opens as soon as the file is copied over.
    What I would like to try next is to install just the CS5 32 bit version.  But the installer is being uncooperative and will only allow either the 64 bit version or both the 64 and 32 bit versions.  So, back to my question: Is there a way to install just the 32 bit version of Photoshop CS5 on a Windows 7 64 bit machine?

    Do you mean schroot?  If so I'm not sure exactly how well that will work out, because the part that depends on python is a deamon that handles communication between the USB dongle and the Tux Droid which may mean hacking the deamon a bit so ether way this does not seem like it will be a easy task.
