Photoshop CS4 Extended quick question

Hello,
My question is simple so I'll keep it brief. I'm able to buy Photoshop CS4 Extended via the University I go to, but I would only use the photography features. Does Photoshop CS4 extended work the same way Photoshop CS4 does in that regard, but with just more advanced features for video etc?
In other words, will Photoshop CS4 extended work the same was as Photoshop CS4 would with my photos?

Thanks,
This is what I thought, but I wanted to make sure considering even with my student discount it's still upwards of $400 and with no return policy once opened.
Enjoy it you lucky guy!
Most of us have to pay a lot more, especially here in UK!

Photoshop CS4 Extended Trial question?

If I download the trial of PS CS4 Extended and then later purchase the full version can I use the key from the full version to activate the trial?
Or would I have to uninstall the trial and install the full version?
Thanks.

In theory yes but, bearing mind all the problems being reported here, I wouldn't do it.

I'm trying to process RAW file images from my SanDisk memory card on Adobe Photoshop CS4 Extended and am unable to do so. Which level Adobe Photoshop do I need to process SanDisk images?

I'm trying to process RAW images from my new SanDisk Ultra memory card and unable to do so. I'm currently using Adobe Photoshop CS4 Extended, is this the right one or do I need to update?

…and you absolutely have to specify the camera model that generated those raw image files.

I need to install photoshop cs4 extended from a disk to a new computer because my old computer had a hard drive crash. There is no serial number on the back of the case. How can I obtain a usable serial number?

I have to install Photoshop CS4 extended on a new computer from a disk because my old computer had a hard drive crash. There is no serial number on the back of the case. How can I obtain a usable serial number?

Find your serial number quickly
You can activate software without following up and registering it... at least that was the case in the past. The serial number is normally located on the disc case or a box inside the main box. If you did not purchase the disc from Adobe then it is possible you would have dealt with a redemption code, in which case it would have been up to you to keep a record of the serial number, especially if you did not follow up and register the software.

Photoshop CS4 Extended- change from PC to Mac and a lost licence key.

Hi,
I have been trying to get into adobe chat to ask these two questions, however it always comes up with an 'chat is unavailable' and I'm unsure of where else to turn- as there is no email contact and no number.
I bought Photoshop CS4 Extended (Student edition) a few years ago and got a disk which i have been using on all my pc computers (deactivating old computers and re-activting new ones), However i have now changed to Mac- and the disk will not load on the mac as it is set for windows. I have then tried to download, CS4 online- but my licence key comes up with a red cross and it will not be accepted. I have looked at other chats and looked at different sites to download the cs4 (and apparently the extended cs4) however i can never find the right download or its just a read me pdf document.
I just want my CS4 photoshop on my new mac computer and unsure how to get it.
Secondly i lost a licence key when one of my family computers died- and have only had one licence key since then. I'm just wondering is there a way to get this back?rent
Is there a different way to contact adobe? Chat just doesn't seem to work for me- and i would love to get these two questions cleared up.
Thanks,
Rachael

Prior to the subscription models—and of course that includes CS4—the Photoshop license was platform specific, either Windows or Mac, but not both. Your CS4 Windows serial number ("key") will never work on the Mac version.
CS4 is out of the loop as far as requesting a platform swap for a nominal fee. It is no longer supported by Adobe in any way. A platform swap required the destruction of your PC version, so you could not use both the PC and the Mac versions.
For a time, you could have used CS4 to upgrade to CS6 for about $200, but that time window has closed by now. Now you would have to own a legitimate version of CS5 in order to be eligible to buy an upgrade to CS6.
You can of course buy the full version of Photoshop CS6 Extended for $1,000 from the Adobe store:
Creative Suite 6
Alternatively, you can subscribe to Photoshop CC and Photoshop CC2014 on a monthly basis without ever owning the software. If you stop paying monthly, the software ceases to work.
The cheapest subscription is the Photography plan, which includes both Photoshop and Lightroom for $10 a month.

Photoshop CS4 extended

Can anyone tell me the difference between Photoshop CS4 and Photoshop CS4 extended? I bought the extended Version at the end of 2009. I had only been working with Photoshop Elements until then and I didn't need a user's guide for that. What are the "extensions" on CS4 extended? I cannot find any information anywhere and neither the installation CD nor the included "learning Adobe Creative Suite"- CD contains a user's guide that would answer my question. I'd really be grateful for an answer.

I'm having a problem creating a slide presentation in CS4. Is this a feature spec

Opening raw images in PHotoshop CS4 extended

I appologize in advance for this DILETTANTE question. I was happily using Lightroom II until recently when I decided, like an idiot, to buy Adobe Design Suite, which includes Photoshop Cs4 Extended.
I am unable to open raw images, I get "could not complete your request because it is not the right kind of document.". The camera I use right now is Canon 5D Mark II. Lightroom does not have any problem either importing the raw images from the card or importing them from my hard disk, if I had already copied them there from the camera card.
Could anybody help me?

For that camera you need the ACR plug-in version 5.2 or higher; you probably still have 5.0 from the installation of the software.
Check in PS Help > About Plug-in...
For 5.5 for Mac look here: http://www.adobe.com/support/downloads/detail.jsp?ftpID=4577
For 5.5 for Windows here: http://www.adobe.com/support/downloads/detail.jsp?ftpID=4578

Setting the Bleed in Adobe Photoshop Cs4 Extended

I have been to the page in support where it points to the window that pops up after you click the print button. I do not see anything on that window that has anything to do with a bleed. Any help with this would be greatly appreciated.

Since I found the answer to my question from a friend and not here I figured posting the answer might be of use to someone who is having the same trouble finding it as me. For my current version Adobe Photoshop CS4 Extended I found the place to add a bleed in the tab Image>Canvas Size.

Photoshop CS4 Extended Trial - Available yet?

Hi all,
Not sure if i am behind the times? But is Photoshop CS4 Extended trial available from adobe yet? If not, do we know when it will be made available?
TIA

I'll tell you EXACTLY why, billhughlett.
Because in the time it takes to type out and submit a simple question like that, post it, then wait for an answer, the questioner could easily spend 30 seconds finding it themselves. Even a poor Googler or surfer could rustle up the answer to this particular question in about 2 minutes.
It's not that many of us wouldn't deign to answer, it's just that our free, voluntary time is better spent in dialogue about issues that aren't so easily found. The esoteric, the arcane, the anomalous, the exceedingly difficult...that's kind of where this forum earns its keep.
You want nicey-nice, spoon-fed answers to "Where's the Paint Bucket?" and questions on that level? Perhaps any of the hundreds or thousand independently-run beginner Photoshop-focused sites/forums is where you wanna be. It's not that we won't answer simple questions, but I think most of us don't like to feel we're being taken advantage of.
Maybe the "attitude" is just a harsh little lesson in being a little more self-sufficient.
The mid-November date may not have slapped you in the face, but it's there, and it's relatively easy to find.

When I try to install Photoshop CS4 extended, machine locks up

Down loaded LION. Photoshop CS4 extended was working initially. Then experienced hiccup, my daughter was going to clean up my machine for me and deleted a bunch of files. Things were so screwed up I had to restore LION. In the process, CS4 got corrupted somehow. Tried to reinstall and whenever I do, the machine locks up and the dark screen of death appears. I've tried everything to get CS4 to work but to no avail. Sure would appreciate some suggestions, I really depend upon CS4 for my photographic work. Thanks

Since my last post (initial question/problem) I logged onto Adobe. Among their recommendations was to download Adobe CS5 cleaner; which I did. Still cannot even install Photoshop. As soon as I try, I get the dark screen of death which requires that I power down and restart. Any ideas?

Photoshop CS4 extended with Vista 64?

My question: Is Photoshop CS4 extended supported by Vista 64? (I want to change from Windows XP to Windows Vista 64). Thanks for information.

Yes it is. The installation will put a 64-bit and a 32-bit version on the computer. The latter is handy if you use plug-ins* which are not available in 64-bit.
You may also need to get new drivers for printers, scanners, etc, and probably need to update your video drivers.
*Do not bung a load of old plug-ins in the plug-in folder without checking first.

Adobe Photoshop CS4 Extended, owned for ages, licensing for this product has expired? Was using it two months ago.

Hello,
I have been trying to get Adobe's help for over a month now. I've been on the phone twice to them, opened up three seperate cases and still arrived at no solution. I was bought Photoshop CS4 Extended awhile ago and use it for my studies (I'm an art student). Two months ago my harddrive on my computer failed and I had to have a new laptop. I went to reinstall Photoshop and "Licensing for this product has expired" comes up. I've uninstalled, inreinstalled many times and used Microsoft Fix It Programme for uninstalling to make sure all the files are gone.
Surfing the forums I learned that there should be a folder with back up and Adobe PCD but I don't have that folder at all. The serial number I use is my original serial number that I know works and adobe have even said it's a technical error. What do I do? College starts again in two weeks and I don't have the programme I use for it!

Try the License Repair Tool Adobe - Adobe Licensing Repair Tool
Other suggestions if this doesn't work: Error "Licensing has stopped working" | Windows
Also if you must uninstall, use the Adobe CS Cleaner tool, not the Microsoft one. Use the CC Cleaner Tool to solve installation problems | CC, CS3-CS6

Photoshop CS4 Extended, issues with resolution and font sizes on Mac

I have Photoshop CS4 Extended, which worked fine on my old 15 inch Macbook Pro, I think it was 2011 and had high definition display.
I now have a new 15 inch 'late 2013' Macbook Pro with retina display (2880 x 1800), and OS 10.9.4
I have 2 problems:
1) Using photoshop now, the resolution is a lot worse than with my old computer, even though my screen is higher resolution.
For example, the images themselves are worse resolution on my display, far less crisp and more pixelated than any of my other programs. And even the windows such as 'save as...' screens are terribly pixelated also. Is there a way to fix this?
2) When using the type tool, I cannot find how to change the size of the font. There used to be numbers which I could change, and also select the font type, both on the top menu bar always visible. Now there is not anymore. What there is there at the top, is what looks to be a bar on top of another bar. The top layer bar is on the left and reaches about one third of the way across the top, and I can drag it by its corner so it can extend more, but not less. It looks like there are things behind it which I cannot see, because it is over the top of them. Perhaps the text size and font options are stuck behind that. What can I do?
Many thanks!
Justin

Hi JJMack, you said "Seems like you want a low resolution display hook and external display to it." I do not know what that means. I did a google search for "low resolution display hook" and it came up with zero results. Also I do not have an external display, only my laptop.
Does anyone know what I can do to fix this issue? I would greatly appreciate any solution.
Thank you!

Can I use Adobe Photoshop CS4 Extended on my brand new iMac? I had PS on my old Mac using the student licensing.

About four years ago, I purchased Adobe Photoshop CS4 Extended while I was in undergrad. I downloaded it to my Mac. Since then, I've purchased a brand new iMac. Can I use this same software? I know it's been four years so the software is very updated, AND my new iMac does NOT have a cd drive. This may all be in vain. I'm just clueless! Thanks!

Emalexander89 you are welcome to install Photoshop CS4 on your new Mac. You can download a fresh copy of the installation files at Download CS6 products.
