Photoshop CS2 and mac upgrade to OS 10.6 ?

I just upgraded my imac to OS 10.6 and now my Photoshop CS2 tries to open but then closes down suddenly. My Illustrator works fine.

When you installed OSX 10.6 it doesn't install Rosetta by default.
Rosetta is necessary to run Power PC applications in 10.6 on Intel Macs
You need to use your OSX install disk and just install Rosetta
Then without opening PS, Click the PS CS2 application icon in the Finder (the application not the folder) use Get Info (command I) and make sure "Open using Rosetta" is checked.
Snow Leopard OSX 10.6 is the last version of OSX that still has Rosetta and you won't be able to use any more OSX upgades.
You should either upgrade to CS6 or you will be stuck using Snow Leopard forever. CS2 is already out of the upgrade path.

Lion is Not compatible with PPC (Power PC) based software, such as your older version of PhotoShop. Your choices are you can either upgrade to the newer version of PhotoShop, or you can backup your data and apps, erase your harddrive and reinstall Snow Leopard.
Hope this helps

Photoshop CS2 in Mac Snow Leopard: faint, pale colours when printed

I used to use Photoshop CS on my old PPC eMac with OS 10.4.11 (Tiger), and printed succesfully on good quality glossy photo paper using an Epson Stylus Photo R340 printer. I have now upgraded to an Intel Mac mini with OS 10.8.3 (Mountain Lion). I am afraid I cannot afford to buy the latest version of Photoshop, so I have installed Parallels Desktop and, within it, Snow Leopard Server, so that I can run Photoshop CS2.
I have now got the correct driver for my printer and all the printer and paper profiles. Using exactly the same profile and other settings that I used to use with Photoshop CS on my old computer, when I printed a TIFF image, the results were a print with extremely pale, washed-out colours. When I used the 'Preview' feature of the printer software, the colours looked good, but when I printed they were hopeless.
I don't think it is the printer. If I set the Photoshop output to let the printer determine colours, I get quite good results. But when I switch to letting Photoshop determine colours, I get these impossibly pale colours. I have checked through all the preference settings of Photoshop CS2 and cannot find anything that might account for this misbehaviour. I should be most grateful for any help or advice.

Since posting the above, I have made a discovery. I looked up the system requirements of different versions of Photoshop. Here is the relevant part of Adobe's list:
This suggests that CS2 will not run in Snow Leopard (OS 10.6)! But it also suggests that CS will not run in Tiger (10.4), and I used CS succesfully for years in Tiger on my old PPC computer. So what does all this mean? Are these minimum requirements? In that case where can I find the upper limits? Is CS2 supposed to run properly in Snow Leopard?

I have Adobe Photoshop CS2 and it closes down every time I open it.

I have Adobe Photoshop CS2 and it closes down every time I open it with the following error: "Photoshop Quit Unexpectedly". Is there anything I can do to troubleshoot this?

The first question is have you used this version on this computer with the operating system you have now. The issue might be (if you are on a Mac) that CS2 was a Power PC application and you have upgraded to a new computer with an Intel processor. CS2 will not work on an Intel processor with system (I think) OSX.6 or greater.
If you have used this release on this computer with the same OS, than try deleting the preferences by holding down the Comand/Control-Option-Shift keys when starting the application. You will get a message asking if you want to delete the preferences, say yes.
Let me know if any of these work.

Using LR2 w/ Photoshop CS2 and Camera Raw 3.7

I am using Photoshop CS2 and Camera Raw 3.7 on a Mac G4, OS X 10.4.11.
I am about to install my upgrade to Lightroom 2. Is this a bad idea?
I have read about some compatibility issues re Camera Raw, and I have also read about how to solve the issue of exporting the keywords.
Will this keyword issue fix work on my system?
What are the real-world practical implications of still having Camera Raw 3.7? I usually adjust images in Lightroom, then any further adjustment is done in Photoshop (not CR). So is the only downside going to be that if I revisit the image in Camera Raw, the adjustments will not show up? Or will it also not show up in Bridge?? And if it is only in CR, is it that the image does not have the adjustments; or does it show the adjusted image, but has just all the sliders zeroed out?
I am hot to install LR2, but I want to make sure that I am not going to open a can of worms. And yes, I could buy PS CS4 (which would get me CR 4.5), and I would like to, but I don't have a G5. And I cannot afford to buy a new desktop computer right now.
Any input would be much appreciated. Thanks.

>so is the LR version of RAW as good as the one in CS3?
It's far better as it has local adjustments and such. Lightroom is more equivalent to the ACR in CS4. To make changes you make to images in ACR outside Lightroom show up in Lightroom, you need to sync the metadata. ACR does not write the changes to RAW images to the Lightroom database, but it writes it into xmp sidecars either right next to the RAW file or embedded into it. So Lightroom has no idea you did anything until you specifically ask it to check for updated metadata.
Note that trying to work with both bridge/ACR and Lightroom on the same set of data will inevitably make you lose data or edits at some point as you're dealing with a synchronization issue, so be careful.

Adobe Photoshop CS2 and Photoshop CS4 on the same system?

Hi all,
I was wondering is it possible to have both Adobe Photoshop CS2 and CS4 on my computer at the same time. I heard that this would cause errors, but if there is, is there a work around for it. Thanks in advance.

Quite a few people keep an older version in case there is something not right for them in the newer version.
Just make sure they are installed in that order.
Be prepared to have your file associations changed.
What is you OS by the way?

I am using a Photoshop cs2, and I wonder if it is possible to keep the settings of the guidelines when closing an image, with the actual document ? It would be nice to have the guidelines locked down, I find it than when opening the same or another image,

I am using a Photoshop cs2, and I wonder if it is possible to keep the settings of the guidelines when closing an image, with the actual document ? It would be nice to have the guidelines locked down, I find it than when opening the same or another image, the guidelines are not locked, it is annoying to have to lock them down again. and it would actually be nice, to ba able to give specific directions when placing the guidelines. Thanks

Then why are the guides unlocked when I reopen a document that I saved with the guides locked ?
Thanks.

Pagemaker is ancient, obsolete and unsupported. It was discontinued over 10 years ago. (Though why it is still sold is a mystery.)
If you want to run PageMaker, your best bet is to use a Win2K or WinXP PC.
Otherwise move to Indesign or look at Serif's PagePlus or Scribus.

Can not install photoshop CS2 on Mac OSX. 10.9.5, It shows "error" no error number, suggest to contact the software supplier, only choice is to quit.

I tried to install Photoshop CS2 on Mac, OSX, 10.9.5.
By the end of the installation, it shows, error, but no error number for reference,
The only choice is "quit".
Please help

That is correct Das_Sad. CS2 will not run on Intel based processors under Mac OS. You will need to find a Mac computer with a PowerPC processor if you wish to run Creative Suite 2.

Photoshop CS2 and Windows 7

I have Photoshop CS2 and recently acquired Windows 7. I want to bring images in directly to Photoshop but the images go through Photo Gallery in Windows. I can import them into PS, but i want them to come into PS directly. Also I cannot include images with an email through Photoshop. How can I change this?
Thank you,

Did you download and install the replacement CS2 installer Adobe made available for their old CS2 customers?
I want to bring images in directly to Photoshop but the images go through Photo Gallery in Windows.
This behavior is most likely happening when you connect you camera to your Windows system or Plug you Camera media card into your Window's card reader because the autoplay is set to open Windows Photo Gallery. You need to change the default but though I have CS2, CS6, CC an CC 2014 installed the only Adobe Autoplay options I see is Bridge CS6 and Bridge CC do not see Bridge or CS2
Also I cannot include images with an email through Photoshop. How can I change this?
What email application are you using that can use applications like Photoshop.

I have tried downloading photoshop cs2 and cs4 on a new computer. I have the disc available for cs2 and the serial number for cs4. They are both registered in my name. I need help doing a download.

I have tried downloading photoshop cs2 and cs4 on a new computer. I have the disc available for cs2 and the serial number for cs4. They are both registered in my name. I need help doing a download. I was able to get part way through cs4, it showed up in my downloads but never got as far in the process as to ask for serial numbers. I tried with cs2 and I got an error message that some bit of information was incorrect. I currently have both downloaded on two other lap tops I own. One is operational and one is dead. I cannot access the dead one to remove the program. Thank you in advance for any assistance.

For CS2 you will need to download a special new version
