Photoshop CS4 32 bit settings work for 64 bit version?

Anyone know if Photoshop CS4 32 bit settings work for 64 bit version?  I just installed Windows 7 x64 and I want to use my backup Photoshop CS4 settings from the 32 bit version.  Will there be any problems?
Also, it seems that since I'm on 64 bit Windows 7, the installer forces me to install the 64 bit version of Photoshop CS4, although the 32 bit version is optional.  Are the 32 bit settings stored in a different location from the 64 bit version?  Or will both version use the same settings from the same place?

I think you are misunderstanding me. The sharing happens via the user home directory (C:\Users\[You]\AppData\Roaming\Adobe ...). 64bit specific settings will be denoted with an X64 in their file name, 32bit settings will be without any extra tags. Beyond that, the programs do not access each other's program directory, which shouldn't be required in the first place, as the default templates are the same for both to begin with. You can of course also copy your brushes and presets to the program directories, but then you will have to worry twice about keeping them in sync.

  • Photoshop CS4 serial not working for 64 bit

    Ok heres the story, ive been using my copy for about 8 months straight without any problems, yesterday I start up photoshop as I do every day and BLAM, it tells me the serial Ive been using is no longer valid.
    When i try to re enter the serial it gives me a big fat red cross.
    The weird thing is that the 32bit version seems to work just fine.
    I already tried re installing the program, used the CS4 cleaning utility and whatnot, but still the same problem, 64 bit asks for serial, 32bit works, I have 8 gigs of ram in my rig and hate to let it all go to waste by using the 32 bit, so if anyone has any clue about my problem, please share.
    Cheers

    Sounds like a specific part of the licensing service does not launch. Have you checked your event viewer and your Services panel?

  • Synaptics touchpad on HP Mini 110 Windows 7 32 Bit - not working for one user - working for another

    Hi,
    I recently have an issue with Synaptics touchpad on HP Mini 110 Windows 7 32 Bit - NOT working for one user - working for another.
    Windows 7 updates recently installed ???
    By checking the device properties on the user that works - "Synaptics PS/2 Port Touchpad 13/10/2011 Version 15.3.29.0"
    When the other user logs on, the touchpad works for a few seconds, then a displays a black square with a red diagonal line through it, then the touchpad won't respond. Trying to use the keypad to navigate to system diagnosics or anything to find further info is useless....

    Hey eagle_no11,
    Thank you for joining the HP Support Community!
    I will do my best in assisting to hopefully get the TouchPad to work on the second user profile.
    What I would like to start off with, is to restore the original Synaptics drivers onto the profile that is not working correctly. I have included the document Using Recovery Manager to Restore Software and Drivers (Windows 7).
    Once you have installed the original drivers, you will need to complete all updates from both HP, as well as Windows. For these updates, if you open the HP Support Assistant, and select Maintain, you should see an option for updating.
    Please let me know how these steps do work out for you.
    Have a great day!

  • Problems with photoshop CS4 in Windows Vista 32 bits

    I have installed Photoshop CS4 in Vista Ultimate 32 bits, in the installation i don´t have any problems.
    When click to run Photoshop, Vista launch a message saing me to close de application, so i can´t start Photoshop.
    Then i update de drivers of my Graphics card (ATI HD2900), and i try to start photoshop with the new drivers. The photoshop starts without problems.
    I open it and i click in the right pane of styles, and Windows launch another message to close de application.
    After that i start Photoshop and i read a message that says that Photoshop have desactivate the aceleration of GPU because there were some problems.
    I go to the menu of performance in settings and Vista launch another message to close de application when i click in performance to open the settings.
    Then i try to open another time the application and i try to open a *.png image file and i paint something in it, then i click in the "X" to close, but the application doesn´t close (i prove with "X" of the application and with the "X" of the image tab). I have to close it with de Task Manager.
    Then i try to open a *.jpg image file and Vista launch another message to close the application.
    I don´t know the reason of these problems, i´m trying to find something in internet.
    I hope you can help me to resolve this problems, i need photoshop.
    Thank you in advance.

    Have you checked that the files actually "belong" to anyone? If you reinstalled your system recently, they may have invalid security descriptors. Try to check. Right-click one of the offending files, choose "Properties", then go to the security settings tab. You should at least see 3 entries (Administrators,[your user name], System). If you see additional entries only consisting of numbers and letters, uncheck the "inherit parent folder settings" option, choose to copy all permissions in the prompt that comes up, then delete those invalid entries. In addition, you may need to set a new owner in the "Advanced" options (it should however default to Administrator after the previous steps)...

  • Adobe Photoshop CS4 has Stopped Working on Windows 7

    Hey guys and girls. I recently got a new computer running Windows 7 64bit. I still have good ol photoshop cs4 and wanted to use it on this new computer. The install process was completed and as I started the program, I get the "Adobe Photoshop CS4 has stopped working" box. I've looked through some forums, and a lot of them mention the wacom tablet issue, which is not the issue since I've yet to install the drivers for my tablet. Has anyone come across this problem at all? This is what shows up when I get that error box.
    C:\Users\Administrator\AppData\Local\Temp\WERCA9F.tmp.WERInternalMetadata.xml
      C:\Users\Administrator\AppData\Local\Temp\WERE1B8.tmp.appcompat.txt
      C:\Users\Administrator\AppData\Local\Temp\WERE246.tmp.mdmp
    Please help, thanks in advance

    The first thing that I would do is insure that you have the latest video driver installed (but do keep any older ones, just in case you must roll-back - newest is not always the best).
    If that does not help, then open Even Viewer, and check for all warning, or error messages in System and Application tabs, for the time that PS crashed. If you find any with links, follow those links - be patient, as some might take a few moments to send data to MS, and then for MS to process it, to open the proper page for that link plus the data gathered. This ARTICLE goes into a bit more detail, and I do not think that it is too Adobe Premiere-centric.
    Good luck,

  • Photoshop CS4 has stopped working--importing video frames to layers

    Whenever I get the part of the video selected that I want and hit okay I get a message saying:
    "Adobe Photoshop CS4 has stopped working"
    How can I fix this?
    Thanks

    Also, you can make sure your system is 64 bit capable by:
       Open Performance Information and Tools by clicking the Start button , clicking Control Panel, clicking System and Maintenance, and then clicking Performance Information and Tools. 
    Click View and print details. 
    In the System section, you can see what type of operating system you're currently running under System type. Under 64-bit capable, you can see whether you can run a 64-bit version of Windows. (If your computer is already running a 64-bit version of Windows, you won't see the 64-bit capable listing.)

    It depends on the original format and the destination format of the file.
    PS: You should upgrade to version 11.0.1

  • My Photoshop CS4 has stopped working - Error 148:3 (Licensing has stopped working).....help!

    My Photoshop CS4 has stopped working - Error 148:3 (Licensing has stopped working).....help please?
    I've not changed anything since the last time I used it but it's just refusing to work.

    Ed,
    It seems that there might be some gremlin in the licensing module. The PS CS4 board has several similar instances. I do not know exactly what the problem is, but this should be an easy reset by Adobe. It has worked for the PS users and requires one free telephone call. I am with Harm on this. I doubt that many, if any, users can be of much help. The installation issues *used* to be simple and quick, but I have not had to make that call, since Illustrator 3. Have your S/N handy. If you purchased from the Adobe Store, a receipt # might come in handy too. Once your product has been verified, you'll probably be asked to enter a key, and away you go.
    Good luck,
    Hunt

  • Will my serial number work for old versions?

    I am a teacher and have a newer version of the software than my students do. I would like to demo in the same version they use, but it is no longer sold - will my serial number work for older versions of the same program?

    No, the serial number is tied to the version/license you purchased.  Can't you acquire the software in the same way that your students have to?

  • Does the Acrobat for windows license key work for Mac version?

    When I try to purchase a Acrobat standard license, it shows only 'Windows" in Platform.
    My question is, will the key (if I purchase) work for Mac version?
    Thanks

    Never have figured out why they do not allow one S/N for both versions, particularly since some folks may have a Windows desktop and a MAC laptop. Unfortunately they do not and you have to purchase a version for each.

  • Lighting effects in Photoshop CC doesn't work for me ... just shows ALL black .. any advice to get it to do what it is supposed to?

    Lighting effects in Photoshop CC doesn't work for me ... just shows ALL black .. any advice to get it to do what it is supposed to?

    So, you're totally new to computers?
    Go to the Help menu in Photoshop and select the System Info menu item.  Copy all that information and paste all of it here MINUS your serial number.
    Yes, Photoshop can delegate a lot of the computing tasks to the GPU on your graphics card.  You may have to disable that feature in Photoshop Preferences > Performance.

  • Photoshop CS4 only installed in 32-bit version??

    I bought Adobe Photoshop CS4 (Extended) 2 years ago. It was the disc-based copy for Windows. I recently got a new computer (now with 8GB ram and a 64-bit OS) So I instaleld PS CS4 the other day, and I now just realized that there is no 64-bit exe of the program. It only installed a 32-bit executable. It never asked me during install either if I wanted to choose the 32-bit or 64-bit version.
    Does PS CS4 not have a 64-bit version? Or did I not get it? What's going on here?

    There was a 64-bit version of CS4 for Windows but not for the Mac.  You might browser the DVD and see if you can find a 64-bit installer.  I don't have my DVD handy to tell you where to look.
