Photoshop cs2 won't load anymore

Hi
When I try to load ps cs2 it will not get past the Reading Preferences part on the opening screen, I have re installed it and it still wont work.
Any Help?

Press and hold Ctrl - Shift - Alt IMMEDIATELY after starting Photoshop from its menu item or shortcut. This will allow you to reset the preferences to initial defaults.
I'm betting that will help.

Photoshop CS5 won't load since I installed Yosemite!

Since loading Yosemite, Photoshop CS5 won't load and I get this window!
I'm on an iMac 21.5 mid 2011.

It seems a lot of people are running it without a problem, just seems to be me that has this issue at the moment, I have just got CS5, but I need it and can't afford the stupid leasing system they now have. I just want the product I paid for to work, or I will have to find a similar system that I can simply buy and use, not pay out for every year!
I had this when Mavericks came out and it was sorted, something to do with Java, but can't remember what...

Adobe Stock Photos Stuck in Trash and Photoshop CS2 won't run!

Okay, I apparently did something stupid. I'm not even sure how this happened, but I realized that Adobe Stock Photos folder was sitting on my desktop (I'm using OS X 10.5.6). I don't know when this happened and I didn't think I needed it so I dragged it to the trash. NOW I cannot run any of my Adobe software (includes Photoshop CS2, Illustrator CS2 and GoLive CS2).
I can see the folder sitting in my trash, but it won't let me drag it back out. So, just as a test, I tried dragging out the one other file (.jpg) and I can't get that one either. I know this isn't a Mac forum, but I'm desparate and cannot find anything to help me.
Probably I am going to have to reinstall everything and (of course) I can't find my CDs!!! Please don't get angry if I'm asking the wrong question. I've done an internet search and I cannot find any solutions.
Thanks, Anne

Adobe stock photos does not even exist anymore.
Have you tried deleting your trash? I have no Adobe stock Photos on my computer and everything works. try restarting the computer.

My Photoshop cs2 won't install

I used photoshop cs2 on my last computer, and now i've got a mac. But photoshop won't get installed. When I press finish it just fail every time. What should I do?

If you mean you have a new Mac then CS2 is far too old to be useable. CS2 is only compatible with old PowerPC Macs and won't work at all on Intel Processor Macs.

I had a geekbuddy tech supposedly removing software on my computer and now my photoshop elements won't load. Do I do trial and then add my key

Hi
I had a tech from GeekBuddy supposedly removing software from my computer but now my photoshop elements 6.0 won't load. Says I'm missing information and have to reinstall.
Do I need to uninstall, then install trial and put in my key? I'd like to do this correctly without issues if possible.
Thanks

IPAD NIGHTMARES: NYTimes app won't load anymore... and more!!

That's the thing: a week short I bought my iPad in Spain, I'm back to Brazil and bad surprises started happening:
1. My NYTimes app does not open anymore (the screen shows for minutes that it's "loading". Forever);
2. My Mail app (yes, the Apple one) crashed today out of nothing for the second time while I was busy typing an important letter;
3. The Twiterrific app won't open anymore, even though I'm placing and replacing the correct username and password (on the site it works just fine);
4. Songs playing on the background crash the moment I open the Youtube app.
Any chance this is due to the iTunes hacking? I'd appreciate some expert opinion.
Sorry for my bad english and thanks a lot in advance,
Sylvio

Well, Steve,
That was quite helpful, but I'm afraid it won't solve the problem either.
Once I got back to Brazil, I still could access my NYT apps (the editor's choice and the regular one for my iPhone and iPod) for five days in a row. But I'm telling you: out of nothing, they suddenly started behaving like that. This is driving me crazy because I think I've done at all, especially delete the apps a dozen times.
Anyway, this Twitterrific app once showed me a message that could possibly explain what is happening and it probably has something to do with your guess: it said I had to reconfigure my iTunes account for some reason. I didn't get what it meant in the first place, and then it never showed the message again.
But it's certainly something related to my bank account, because my apps ipon the ipod and iphone won't work anymore either. How can I deal with this "checking-account" procedure??
Somebody please help!!!

Photoshop cs2 won't start

I am out of town. I know that I have an old version of photoshop (CS2), but when I return home, I plan to buy a new computer and update photoshop to the latest version.
In the meantime, I'm having problems starting photoshop on windows xp. When I start it, I get a window, "Adobe Photoshop CS2 has encountered a problem and needs to close. We are sorry for the inconvenience." If I click, it gives technical information about the problem.
I've rebooted, and the same things happens. If I were back home and had access to my install disks, I would reinstall. Is there anything that I can do while I'm here in LA?
Thanks a lot for your help.

You have to be VERY quick to get those keys down IMMEDIATELY after starting Photoshop from it's menu entry or shortcut, and it sometimes takes several tries.

Photoshop CS2 won't let me open?

I received Photoshop CS2 from Adobe because they shut down the CS server, killing my program. I installed the program using their serial number and when I open it, it says the serial number was not installed and then when I push 'ok' it shuts down. How do I fix this

Hi there! Because the forum you originally posted in is for beginners trying to learn the basics of Photoshop, I moved your question to the Downloading, Installing, Setting Up forum, where you'll get more specialized help.

Photoshop CS2 won't install on a Powerbook

I've been trying to install PS CS2 all day today and it keeps failing. It'll get through the welcoming and licensing process, but once I authenticate, the installer prepares my volume and then stop immediately after the installer script begins to run. The following message is shown in the installer window:
There were errors installing this software
Please try installing again.
I checked the installer log and it shows that my volume is not supported:
Target volume type not supported:
Apple_HFSX
Jun 10 13:37:43 Dan-Rosellinis-Computer : preflight[1166]:
Jun 10 13:37:43 Dan-Rosellinis-Computer : Install failed: The following install step failed: run preflight script for Adobe Photoshop CS2
I tried all the suggestions by Adobe, (removing fonts, reboot with extensions off, disconnected all external devices) and I tried to install this on a iBook and an external volume, but still no luck.
Anyone have any suggestions?

After talking to Adobe's help desk and trying several things that didn't work, I went back to the install log. Specifically the part that said the target disk wasn't supported. I replaced by internal drive about a year ago, because it was failing, and I formatted the new drive as Case Sensitive Journaled". The Adobe tech said that that wouldn't be the problem, but after a Google search on Case Sensitive Journaled (CSJ), I found several cases of install errors of Adobe Creative Suite when attempting to install on a drive formated as CSJ.
I made a disk copy of my drive using Carbon Copy Cloner then, using Disk Utility from the install disk, reformatted my drive and restored it from the disk image. Rebooted and all worked well, even the install of PSCS2. As a bonus, my copy of Macromedia Contribute now works again. Go figure....

Photoshop CS2 won't save files in JPEG format

I have Windows Vista and am using Photoshop CS2 Version 9.
Until today everything was working fine, but there are two problems.
1. Only today I have a limited amount of formats to save a .PSD file in:
PSD, CIN, PDF, RAW, PNG, and TIFF.
Whereas if I want to save a JPEG file per say as another format, I get the full list to choose from.
2. If I choose a layer on an image, not all the filters show up that I can run it through. The 'Artistic, Brush Strokes, Pixelate, Sketch, and Stylize' are not clickable.
Thank you.

Photoshop CS2 won't install on MacBook Pro, 10.4.6

I have a 15 inch, 2.0 ghz MacBook Pro running 10.4.6. At this point I have installed all of the current Apple software updates.
I'm trying to install Photoshop CS2 and the installer hangs up and freezes the entire screen (although I can move the mouse) at the very beginning of the installation. The installer reads "Running Installation Script". The only way out is to do a hard reboot.
I've searched this forum and the Adobe forum and can't find any work arounds. On the Adobe forum it was suggested to do a clean install of OS X and it should work. I'd like to avoid that because of the time and possible loss of data.
Any ideas? Thanks.

Yup ... same for me. Both PS and Common Files are greyed out and I can't uncheck anything.
Also, I did verify the disk permissions; created a different account; and even booted in Safe Mode.
It looks like Adobe is using the "we don't support Intel Macs yet" line so any fix for this may need to come from Apple.
I do have PS 7 running (I didn't install it on the MacBook, it ported over from my old machine when I set the new machine up) so I'm not completely dead. Sure wish I could use Adobe Bridge though.
EDIT: I just found this on the Adobe forum:
"Apprently there are some problems with the QT7.1 update.
Unfortunately, the only solution is to reinstall your OS and then install every update other than QT7.1. "

Photoshop CS2 won't install!

Hello!
I have installed Photoshop CS a long time ago and have been using it ever since, but I would like to install Photoshop CS2 and use that instead. However, whenever I try to install it, the installer always gets stuck on "Running Installer Script" or something like that. I have kept it running for hours, and it never progresses, yet it my Mac never freezes or anything.
Does anyone have any idea on how to go about correctly installing Photoshop CS2? Thank you!

Installed CS3 instead...

What version of iPhoto? Assuming 09 or later:
Option 1
Back Up and try rebuild the library: hold down the command and option (or alt) keys while launching iPhoto. Use the resulting dialogue to rebuild. Choose to Rebuild iPhoto Library Database from automatic backup.
If that fails:
Option 2
Download iPhoto Library Manager and use its rebuild function. This will create a new library based on data in the albumdata.xml file. Not everything will be brought over - no slideshows, books or calendars, for instance - but it should get all your albums and keywords back.
Because this process creates an entirely new library and leaves your old one untouched, it is non-destructive, and if you're not happy with the results you can simply return to your old one. .
