Photoshop CS2 trial to full lic - impact on LR

Hi,
Here are what I have installed in this order:
- Expired trial Photoshop CS2
- Lightroom (CS2 already expired when I install LR)
I am going to reinstall a full license Photostop CS2 soon, would this have an impact on my existing LR?
1. Do I need to reinstall LR so that LR can use (or rather can 'see')
2. Photoshop CS2 to open individual files?
3. Would changes on the RAW images done by LR are reflected in CS2?
4. I like LR's Library layout, do I really need to install Adobe Bridge?
5. If I use CS2 top open files direct from LR (bypassing Bridge), what colour management is best for both worlds? ProColor RGB?
I use a Mac by the way.
Thanks.
Thomas

1. No, LR is not affected by CS2 licencing procedures. LR not even uses activiation like CS2 which is very much appreciated.
2,3 You have to ensure that you use the latest Camera Raw plugin for CS2 (ACR 3.7). If you activate the automatic update of XMP metadata you will be able to see changes you made in LR in Bridge and CS2.
4. You do not have to. But if you are using CS2 heavily besides LR I personally would recommend Bridge
5. It makes absolutely no difference if you open a file directly in CS2 or via Bridge concerning color management. ProPhoto RGB is very well suited to deal with 16Bit raw photos and it is the internally used color space of LR. But please note that there is no best choice. It really depends on your workflow and output.

Photoshop CS2 Trial Install Crash on Mac Pro

Well, I've seen the benchmark sites running Photoshop CS2 on a Mac Pro, but when I try to install the trial version, it crashs during the install process. I tried re-installing Mac OS X and re-installing Photoshop first thing, but with the same result.
A search only brought up a previously known issue with QuickTime 7.1, but the fix was to update to 7.1.1 - since my install has QT 7.1.2 this doesn't seem applicable.
Doom3 is the only other Rosetta app I've tried, and it runs fine - heck, I didn't even initially realize that the demo is the PPC-only version.
Has anyone else gotten it successfully installed? I don't want to spring out the cash for the full thing until I know it works (and I want to test out the Kodak Digital ROC plug-in to make sure it works as well.)
(I'm asking here since my lack of search results leads me to think it might be Mac Pro specific.)
Take care,
P.M.
Mac Pro Mac OS X (10.4.7) (2.66/160GB/7300GT/2GB/BT + 250GB PATA drive)

This worked for me....
Restart
During restart, hold Ctrl + Command + P + R to reset the PRAM
After this, the computer will flash and reboot again and should boot into the Mountain Lion Installer.
Good luck.

Photoshop CS2 trial

Ok, so I have tried downloading Adobe's trial version of Photoshop cs2 because it would be a lot more convenient to have a copy on my computer rather than walking to the library any time I need photoshop. Anyway after the file has downloaded and I try and actually install Photoshop it pops up with an error message saying the installation has failed. I have tried several different things and nothing has worked(redownloading, restartign the computer...) Does anyone no why this is and if there is a remedy?
I don't want to invest in an actual copy of cs2 because cs3 will be out soon enough and my graphic design courses don't really require that I have photoshop yet, it would just be nice.

oh and I have successfully downloaded a trial version of Illustrator and had no problems.

How to download photoshop cs2

how i can download photoshop cs2 trial version

Is there a particular reason you wanted a trial of photoshop cs2 and not a newer version of photoshop?
I don't know if you get a photoshop cs2 trial from adobe anymore.
Which operating system are you using?
Here are the trial versions of photoshop and photoshop elements adobe still has, but keep in mind, you can only actually buy photoshop cc or photoshop cs6 and photoshop elements 13 as of now.
The rest are just provided for owners of previous versions that may have misplaced their install media.

Can someone please help a friend of mine get a permanent registration key (not a trial key that expires in 30 days) to replace his lost registration key for Adobe Photoshop CS2? His previous hard drive crashed and he no longer has his registration key. This is vital for his wedding business.

Thanks to everyone for the tips on my CS2 question. It turns out in the end it was some plug-in filter software that was causing the glitch, not a lack of an Adobe registration key. As for why he still uses CS2, it does the job for him, so that's all he needs.

X800-XT Mac Edition and Photoshop CS2 in Full Screen Mode

I recently installed a new ATI X800XT AGP Retail card into my Dual 2-Gig G5 Mac. I have (2) Sony CRTs connected to this card - a 21" Artisan and a 24" GDM-FW900. So far I have only found one problem and this involves Full-Screen Mode in Photoshop CS2 under a certain condition.
All of the following conditions must be met to reproduce this anomoly, but it is at least consistent and happens 100% of the time. Here are the conditions:
(1) Open any image in Photoshop CS2
(2) Zoom in on the image until the image area exceeds the boindaries of the screen.
(3) Go into Full-Screen Mode (without Menu Bar showing) but hitting the "F" key twice.
(4) Hit the Tab key to hide toolbars (the image should now fill the screen and extend off all four borders.
(5) Now - holding down the spacebar to get the hand tool - pan the umage around the screen with the grabber hand. You will notice that the image will not refresh properly.
(6) One other condition must be met - you must perform this while on the main monitor which normally has the OSX Menu Bar present. Note: changing the menu bar to the other monitor causes this problem to migrate to that monitor only.
Can anyone else reproduce this?
G5-Dual-2Gig Mac OS X (10.4.6) 4.5 Gig Ram

Post this over at the Adobe forums to see if it's just a CS2 problem.
Also you might want to file a bug report with them.

I Need to Update CS2 Trial Key to Full Key

I have several users who are on CS2 trial keys which are going to expire at the end of the month. Does anyone know of a way I can update them with the full licence without uninstalling? Ideally I would like to roll out the updated key via SCCM (SMS). Also, is there a way to find out which key a machine has got remotely? By this I am talking about a text file, reg entry, etc, not the splash screen/help menu.
Thanks in advance.

I can't believe Adobe would agree to extending CS2 to anybody. I'm sure they thought you were trialling CS4. <[email protected]> wrote in message news:[email protected].. >I know and we're moving to CS4 shortly but for reason I can't be bothered >going into now, we have to keep with CS2 for another month or so.

Is the EULA for Photoshop Elements 9.0 full version the same as the trial version?

Is the EULA for Photoshop Elements 9.0 full version the same as the trial version?
Is it acceptable to read the .pdf for Photoshop Elemetns 9.0 Full Version and then to install the trial version?
Reading what I assume to be about 14 pages of dense A4 Text through a small windowed box is unnaceptable. How can I agree to something unless I have read it?
Pete

Hi Pete
The trial is exactly the same as the boxed product.
In fact if you purchase the boxed product from your favorite retailer you can simply enter the serial number from the DVD case into the trial to make it permanent - no further installation required.

Photoshop CS2 (program error msg)... Help please!!

I have installed the full creative suite 2 on my new iMac. everything works fine except photoshop?!!?
Illustrator works great, In-Design works great, But when i try to open a file or create a new page in PS it tells me "Could not create document because of a program error"???? ***?
I had a previous version of CS and it worked fine for one day, then that started happening. I installed the CS2 trial version, and it would still give me the same error msg. I erased everything and installed the new CS2 (photoshop, illustrator , in-design and acrobat). It still gives me the same darn msg.???
Any help would be greatly appreciated!
thanks

See the Adobe Knowledge Base document"Error 'Could not complete your request...' or 'Could not create a new document...' (Photoshop CS2 on Mac OS X v10.4)"
I suggest whenever you have problems with third-party applications, the first place to start troubleshooting is with the application's documentation, then vendor's web site. Usually their sites have FAQs, lists of known bugs, or application-specific forums similar to these Discussions. Sometimes, unlike the Apple Discussions, the questions are even answered by employees of the vendor.

Adobe Photoshop CS2 Install

I am attempting to install Adobe Photoshop CS2, I know it is an old version, but I am unable to upgrade at this time. However, I have the full version of Adobe Photoshop CS2, and when I run the install it states that it is looking for a previous version of Photoshop. I have verified that this is not an upgrade only cd. Please advise.

Thanks for trying to help out guys but after hours of toying with this thing it finally hit me like a brick wall. I found a work around.
For anyone that may run into this issue in the future:
When you run the Adobe Photoshop CS2 install and it will not let you install due to looking for previous versions
Install Adoby Photoshop CS2 as the 30 day trial, which will install without any issues.
After the installation is completed then ender the serial number manually after that.
Not sure why it has to be a PITA about it, but it works.

Can't Access Supplementary Editing with Photoshop CS2

I was a user of Elements3 for a long time mainly because I liked that the catalog's "edit with" feature worked with Photoshop CS2. I recently got a new PC with Windows 7 so I could not install PSE 3. I downloaded PSE9 trial version to see if all worked well and it was worth the purchase. The problem I am having is that I cannot seem to get my Photoshop (CS2) as a supplementary editing option. When I try it tells me this
But if I don't add it like it says, there is not a Photoshop option when I go to the "edit with" list.
I don't know if this is right, but from the little bit of research I did it thinks I am trying to add Elements again because the Elements program exe file starts with "Photoshop" so when it reads the Photoshop.exe file it thinks it is a duplicate. I tried creating a copy and renaming the Photoshop.exe file which almost worked. Elements allowed me to select it as a supplementary editor and afterwards Photoshop was an edit option. I tried to edit a photo with it and while the program opened, it then got an error message and ended up closing before the photo came up for editing.
Can someone give me a fix to use Photoshop as my editor. I really liked how I could edit in PS and keep a neat catalog of edited versions with the Elements versioning capability. If I can't do it I probably won't end up purchasing the PSE9 program.

I have the identical problem trying to use Photoshop as the editor from Photoshop Elements 11.
Please can some-one let us in on the secret of how to get PSE to recognise that a full Photoshop is installed.
Thanks
Dave

Date preferences problem - Photoshop CS2 and OS X 10.4.6

I am running Photoshop CS2 9.0.1 on two Mac G5s (Mac OS X 10.4.6) and Photoshop CS 8.0 on a Mac G4 (Mac OS X 10.4.6) but now have a problem with the correct display of dates in File Info on the pair of G5s running CS2 9.0.1.
However I configure the date display preferences in International in System Preferences (UK prefs - DD/MM/YYYY) File Info will now only display the date as 'short', i.e. 1/6/06, for example. Naturally this presents a major problem with all my pre-2000 dates. By contrast, with exactly identical System Preferences on the G4 with Photoshop CS, the dates display correctly, i.e. 01/06/2006 or 06/06/1944. One of the G5s also has Photoshop CS 8.0 and also exhibits the same problem.
Is this an OS X 10.4.6 update problem, as I believe, or a combination of flaws between Apple and Adobe? Is there a cure? With a vast number of images in a picture library it is essential to have accurate, pre-2000, dates embedded in the File Info metadata. Can anyone offer an answer, a solution or a workaround?

After much trial and error I eventually discovered a fix. When customizing the Date Format Preferences (UK) (in System Preferences/International) select 'Short' and then drag the day of the week from the list below as the first item in the displayed date; i.e. Thursday 08/06/2006
Then modify the DD, MM and YYYY by highlighting the numbers and selecting the full 2 or 4 number digit from the drop-down menus. This is something that seemed to be fine in 10.4.5 but has changed in 10.4.6!

Adobe Photoshop CS2 in Macbook Pro

During installation of Adobe Photoshop CS2, the installer runs and freezes in the midst. There is no way of installing Adobe Photoshop CS2 with intel processor. Full reinstallation of Mac OSX doesn't help. Running disk utility doesn't help either. Problems occurred with or without installing of Apple Security Update 2006-003(intel). Any comments?

Edwin, thanks for the input, and I do apologize. You are right. I should be easier with which to live. There are two major problems out there right now. That is also part of the problem. We are not used to two problems in our domain.
I own 20 Mac's in my office, and I only did these updates on my MacBook Pro 17 inch and my G5 Dual 2.3 Ghz machine that has two 30-inch Cinema Displays. I had both problems on my MacBook Pro, and the G5 had the reboot glitch. I won't update the other machines untill these problems are resolved by the OEMs.
Of the two major hiccups out there, this link indicates Quicktime's update is the source of the inability to restart machines, fixed by deleting startup items, I believe. I had this reboot problem also.
http://www.macworld.com/news/2006/05/24/cs2quicktime/index.php
Accrobat's freezing the system, the question at hand, is a result of the Security Update, fixed by rolling back to a pre-Security Update state using Archive & Install re-installation of the OS. Archive & Install does not erase your files or network settings.
Apple has released two products that fouled these systems. Bad Quality Assurance I think. I am not sure if the Security Update problem is an Apple or an Adobe software problem, i.e., Adobe may have not followed some software guidance. I am certain both companies are aware of the problem, but I am uncertain of the fix for Acrobat. We probably do need to update for security, but I can't live without Acrobat. So I will wait it out without the Security Update.

PhotoShop CS2 "Program Error" when printing

I am posting this to the Adobe Forums as well, but thought someone here might have some ideas. am having an intermittent problem printing from PhotoShop CS2 to an Epson 9800. When printing large files (200 MB average) to the Epson, PhotoShop will spool the job, taking about 50% longer than normal, and when complete, displays the following message..."The file XXXX.tif could not be printed because of a program error" No job ever gets to the print que. This happens about 80% of the time when printing. Quitting and restarting PhotoShop generally fixes the problem, and the file can be printed from another computer without issue, so this is not file specific. I have 8GB of RAM installed and PhotoShop running under 100% available memory, cache level at 8, with a dedicated 180GB scratch disk. Memory should NOT be the problem, though I do often have the full layered version of the file open in the background (I am printing from a flattened copy. I have observed that the problem is less likely to occur if no other files are open. I have a second G5 with the exact same software setup (OS, Print Driver and PhotoShop down to the decimal version #) that works perfectly every time. I have run all of the System utilities (Repair Permissions, FSCK, etc), reset the OSX printing system, reset PS preferences, trashed and re installed CS, as well as the Epson printer driver, all with no success. Any other trouble shooting ideas would be greatly appreciated. I would love to avoid a System reinstall.
