Photoshop free alternative for leopard?

anyone know of any free photoshop alternatives for OS X Leopard?
I've heard people say they are out there along with the free open office so you can avoid Microsoft
any of them actually able to use and maintain .psd files?
while I'm at it, any alternatives to dreamweaver out there? though I doubt that even more
thx!

The regular Gimp will open Photoshop files, recognizes layers, has many features, and is free. It runs in X11, and although there are some issues with X11 in Leopard, it does run. I had the 2.4.0 release candidate, just downloaded the 2.4.3. Both will run. There is something on the downloads page about requiring a patched X11-user, but I didn't do that and it seems to be fine. Of course, I didn't do much with it....The chief reason I don't use it much is that it requires a learning curve, it is rather different than anything you are used to on the Mac, and rather different than Photoshop as well. I've just never spent the time with it necessary to become proficient. My habits are pretty set after using Mac apps and Photoshop for many years. But it is powerful and free. You can get the Mac version here:

You do have to have X11 installed. It is in the Optional installs of Leopard install disk.

PhotoShop Elements 6 for Mac under Snow Leopard?

Hi. Apple's new operating system for Mac, Snow Leopard is being released tomorrow.
According to the Snow Leopard wiki, Photoshop Elements 6 does not work under Snow Leopard:
http://snowleopard.wikidot.com/
I contacted Adobe to ask if they had any plans to update Photoshop Elements 6 to work with Snow Leopard. The response I got from their support was that Adobe Photoshop Elements was programmed before Snow Leopard and so they weren't responsible if it didn't work.
I am pissed because of course Photoshop Elements was programmed before Snow Leopard. EVERY software program was. Most of my software (and I have a lot of apps) are being updated for Snow Leopard by their developers.
I'm writing this post just to make sure that Photoshop Elements doesn't work under Snow Leopard. It's possible whoever posted that Photoshop Elements didn't work under Snow Leopard could have been having an isolated problem.
So, if anyone tries Photoshop Elements with Snow Leopard, please post here whether or not it works.
Thanks a lot.
Mirskyman

No, there are no significant known conflicts with Snow Leopard, so that's not your problem. Have you deleted prefs since the upgrade? Was this an upgrade in place rather than an erase install? If so, go to your username>library>preferences and delete:
com.adobe.Photoshop.Elements.plist
Adobe Photoshop Elements 6 Paths Folder
Adobe Photoshop Elements 6 Settings Folder
Opera preferences
repair permissions and see if it's any better. Do you have any third party content installed in PSE? There may well be conflicts with that, if so.

Why is my free Beta Photoshop Lightroom asking for a license?

In the nearly daily Flash Update I received an offer for a "Free Beta Photoshop Lightroom" and for once took Adobe up on one of their offers. I figured even though it was a Beta it would be nice to have a free program to go along with my paid version of CS Master Collection. I installed the flash update and recieved no notification that Lightroom had been installed. First bad sign. I checked my applications and yes, it was there, great. I clicked on it and it then asked me to decide to enter my license number or to choose the 30 day free trial.
Free Trial?
The offer was not for a free trial. It was for a Free Beta version with no mentinon of a trial period. Is Adobe familar with the false advertising laws in America? I am saddened with the direction that Adobe seems to have taken with their advertising and promotional inaccuracies. Had I known this was a free trial I would not have accepted the download. Considering it was advertised as free I want my free light room.
I dont think it is wise for Adobe to be making their long time customers unhappy. Is adobe going to stand behind their advertisement in the updates?
I was told by the chat help that they do not know anything about this as well. How can adobe not know what ads they have with their flash player updates?
I am getting very dissappointed with the games Adobe is playing.
I have to add, that Mohammed in the chat window was very good and patient. Adobe, your slipping and I for one do not like it.

Keith, of course public offerings. I am sorry you do not have the experience of going to a Software site and seeing the offer of Beta software. The largest of course is MS who has offered Beta in a number of different manners. Some with a year time limit others with no time limit due to it being a beta. Many companies offer it.
This is a customer complaint and a resolution should be found and not disbuted because of your personal expereinces that have no bearing on my experiences or your disbelief.
An example of a good helpful post is Vicotria's post. She is attempting to find out what is going on, you and the other guy are provoking an argument, and that is not staying on topic. I dont care that you need proof that I have beta's from whatever source I received them from. I would like to know what happened.
Victoria,
Thank you for trying to find a solution. The windows are not the same but are similar. Considering I do not have a screen shot, could I have misread it? Maybe. I dont have a screen shot to disbute it. Why I am considering that I misread it is because you tried to duplicate my experience and had appear on two different machines. That unlike the other off color posts suggests I misread it and was not dillusional about companies offering betas and my beta releases on my shelves.
I will take a screen shot from now on when these offers come up. Thank You Victoria.
PS Victoria,
That screen capture you have is the web page also. The update comes up in its own seperate window on the computer when a new update is available. I have the settings where it will not do auto updates. It will inform me when an update is available.

I am looking for a free downloaod for photoshop cs2. can anyone help me?

I am looking for a free downloaod for photoshop cs2. can anyone help me? I had downloaded it previously and then I had my computer cleaned up and it was taken off. Now, when I go to open it, it wants the license number. Where can I find that as I know that I had downloaded it before. The one website that has it for free must have a virus in it and my AVG will not allow it to download. I am lost and need it really fast! Please help me!

If you were a legitimate CS2 licensee, you'll find the link to the CS2 replacement download and new s/n in the above thread, despite its subject title.
This may explain it to you in a more convincing way:

Is there a free Trial for Photoshop CS6? [was:hi]

um i want to know if there is a free trial for photoshop cs6? i want to try it out before i buy it

I already have CS6 and CC installed so I cannot test it, myself, but try this:
Go to: http://creative.adobe.com/#products/photoshop
And on that page, change the dropdown from Photoshop CC to Photoshop CS6 and choose Download Photoshop CS6 at the top and see what happens. For me it started up the Create Cloud installer with PS-CS6 (and PS-CC) already up-to-date, but for you it might do something different.

Adobe Brings Retina Display Support To Photoshop And Illustrator CS6 As A Free Update For All Users

Hello Daisy,
It sounds like when you try to sign into the iTunes Store, you are prompted to review your account information. You click review, but nothing happens. Usually what should appear here is your billing information according to this article:
Using an existing Apple ID with the iTunes Store and Mac App Store
http://support.apple.com/kb/ht2589
I recommend just accessing your account settings and verifying your billing information using these steps:
Changing your account information using a computer:
Open iTunes.
Choose Store > Sign In.
Enter your Apple ID and password, then click the Sign In button.
Choose Store > View My Account.
Enter your account password, and click the View Account button.
To update your name, billing address, or payment information, follow these instructions:
From the Apple Account Information page, click the Edit Payment Information button.
Edit the information that you would like to change.Note: The payment methods that the iTunes Store accepts can be found in the payment type section. If you do not want a payment method on your account, select None in the payment type section.
Click the Done button once you've updated all of your information.

Hi tay-fun@livefr,

I am trying adobe Photoshop and adobe illustrator because I can't decide which one to buy so I want to try both, after I downloaded Photoshop I can not see the option "free trial" for adobe Illustrator, it is because I can only free try one at the time??

Bryan,
You can download both at the same time.
But you may wish to start off with one and use it full time, then download the other later, so you get the maximum possible time with both.
If you have trouble getting the free trial on the Adobe site, you may try here or here:

I downloaded the free trial for photoshop

I downloaded the free trial for Photoshop tonight about 11ish and once it finished downloading I tried to open it and it came up saying my trial has expired. so I uninstalled creative cloud and Photoshop and tried again I've done that 3 times now and there's no change? I've never had Photoshop on this laptop before or even had an adobe account on this e-mail, I'm a graphic student at college and really need Photoshop for this project.

Sometimes if you sign out (deactivate) then sign back in it works.

is there a free alternative to indesign that anyone can recommend or someway of me getting it from a windows to a mac?
Thanks

No. I have seen nothing even close to InDesign in the free department. You could install Windows in bootcamp on your Mac and install it there.

Virus? Antivirus software for Leopard?

Recently, our flawless iMac (currently running 10.5.8) that we've owned since December of '07 and that has worked perfectly has started freezing or not coming out of 'sleep'.
We've successfully rebooted and everything seems fine but once in a while it will just freeze in the middle of a screen change or something else entirely innocent.
Do you think it's a virus? Are there ANY Antivirus programs out there that we should be using?
Do we even NEED an antivirus program for this OS?
Any help will be greatly appreciated.

No viruses that can attack OS X have so far been detected 'in the wild', i.e. in anything other than laboratory conditions.
Do not be tricked by 'scareware' that attempts computer users to download fake anti-virus software that may itself be malware. More on that here:
http://news.bbc.co.uk/1/hi/technology/8313678.stm
Beware of PDF files from unknown sources. A security firm announced that by its counting, malicious Reader documents made up 80% of all exploits at the end of 2009.:
http://www.computerworld.com/s/article/9157438/RoguePDFs_account_for_80_of_all_exploits_saysresearcher
It is possible, however, to pass on a Windows virus to another Windows user, for example through an email attachment. To prevent this all you need is the free anti-virus utility ClamXav, which you can download for Tiger and Leopard from:
http://www.clamxav.com/
The new version for Snow Leopard is available here:
http://www.clamxav.com/index.php?page=v2beta
(Note: ClamAV adds a new user group to your Mac. That makes it a little more difficult to remove than some apps. You’ll find an uninstaller link in ClamXav’s FAQ page online.)
However, the appearance of Trojans and other malware that can possibly infect a Mac seems to be growing, but is a completely different issue to viruses.
If you allow a Trojan to be installed, the user's DNS records can be modified, redirecting incoming internet traffic through the attacker's servers, where it can be hijacked and injected with malicious websites and pornographic advertisements. The trojan also installs a watchdog process that ensures the victim's (that's you!) DNS records stay modified on a minute-by-minute basis.
You can read more about how, for example, the OSX/DNSChanger Trojan works here:
http://www.f-secure.com/v-descs/trojanosxdnschanger.shtml
SecureMac has introduced a free Trojan Detection Tool for Mac OS X. It's available here:
http://macscan.securemac.com/
The DNSChanger Removal Tool detects and removes spyware targeting Mac OS X and allows users to check to see if the trojan has been installed on their computer; if it has, the software helps to identify and remove the offending file. After a system reboot, the users' DNS records will be repaired.
(Note that a 30 day trial version of MacScan can be downloaded free of charge from:
http://macscan.securemac.com/buy/
and this can perform a complete scan of your entire hard disk. After 30 days free trial the cost is $29.99. The full version permits you to scan selected files and folders only, as well as the entire hard disk. It will detect (and delete if you ask it to) all 'tracker cookies' that switch you to web sites you did not want to go to.)
A white paper has recently been published on the subject of Trojans by SubRosaSoft, available here:
http://www.macforensicslab.com/ProductsAndServices/index.php?mainpage=document_general_info&cPath=11&productsid=174
Also, beware of MacSweeper:
MacSweeper is malware that misleads users by exaggerating reports about spyware, adware or viruses on their computer. It is the first known "rogue" application for the Mac OS X operating system. The software was discovered by F-Secure, a Finland based computer security software company on January 17, 2008
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/MacSweeper
On June 23, 2008 this news reached Mac users:
http://www.theregister.co.uk/2008/06/23/mac_trojan/
More on Trojans on the Mac here:
http://www.technewsworld.com/story/63574.html?welcome=1214487119
This was published on July 25, 2008:
Attack code that exploits flaws in the net's addressing system are starting to circulate online, say security experts.
The code could be a boon to phishing gangs who redirect web users to fake bank sites and steal login details.
In light of the news net firms are being urged to apply a fix for the loop-hole before attacks by hi-tech criminals become widespread.
Net security groups say there is anecdotal evidence that small scale attacks are already happening.
Further details here: http://news.bbc.co.uk/2/hi/technology/7525206.stm
A further development was the Koobface malware that can be picked up from Facebook (already a notorious site for malware, like many other 'social networking' sites like Twitter etc), as reported here on December 9, 2008:
http://news.bbc.co.uk/newsbeat/hi/technology/newsid_7773000/7773340.stm
You can keep up to date, particularly about malware present in some downloadable pirated software, at the Securemac site:
http://www.securemac.com/
There may be other ways of guarding against Trojans, viruses and general malware affecting the Mac, and alternatives will probably appear in the future. In the meantime the advice is: be careful where you go on the web and what you download!
If you think you may have acquired a Trojan, and you know its name, you can also locate it via the Terminal:
http://theappleblog.com/2009/04/24/mac-botnet-how-to-ensure-you-are-not-part-of- the-problem/
As to the recent 'Conficker furore' affecting Intel-powered computers, MacWorld recently had this to say:
http://www.macworld.co.uk/news/index.cfm?email&NewsID=25613
Although any content that you download has the possibility of containing malicious software, practising a bit of care will generally keep you free from the consequences of anything like the DNSChanger trojan.
1. Avoid going to suspect and untrusted Web sites, especially p'orn'ography sites.
2. Check out what you are downloading. Mac OS X asks you for you administrator password to install applications for a reason! Only download media and applications from well-known and trusted Web sites. If you think you may have downloaded suspicious files, read the installer packages and make sure they are legit. If you cannot determine if the program you downloaded is infected, do a quick Internet search and see if any other users reported issues after installing a particular program.
3. Use an antivirus program like ClamXav. If you are in the habit of downloading a lot of media and other files, it may be well worth your while to run those files through an AV application.
4. Use Mac OS X's built-in Firewalls and other security features.
5. Stop using LimeWire. LimeWire (and other peer-to-peer sharing applications) are hotbeds of potential software issues waiting to happen to your Mac. Everything from changing permissions to downloading trojans and other malicious software can be acquired from using these applications. Similar risks apply to using Facebook, Twitter, YouTube and similar sites which are prone to malicious hacking: http://news.bbc.co.uk/1/hi/technology/8420233.stm
6. Resist the temptation to download pirated software. After the release of iWork '09 earlier this year, a Trojan was discovered circulating in pirated copies of Apple's productivity suite of applications (as well as pirated copies of Adobe's Photoshop CS4). Security professionals now believe that the botnet (from iServices) has become active. Although the potential damage range is projected to be minimal, an estimated 20,000 copies of the Trojan have been downloaded. SecureMac offer a simple and free tool for the removal of the iBotNet Trojan available here:
http://macscan.securemac.com/files/iServicesTrojanRemovalTool.dmg
Last but not least, there is the potential for having your entire email contact list stolen for use for spamming:

Photoshop CC 2014 for PC will not copy or paste

Running:
Photoshop CC 2014 for PC
Windows 8.1 Pro, R2 64 bit, AMD FX3 8350 with 16GB RAM. 75% of RAM free
Photoshop CC 2014 for PC will not copy or paste.
When I create a line of text and want to copy and paste the text in the same document, the copy and paste functions are not working. The commands on the Edit menu are grayed out. CTL+C and CTL+X and CTL+V do not work.
I have the correct layer selected.
There is nothing else selected, just the text.
Copy and paste fail on new documents, existing documents, documents with backgrounds, documents without backgrounds.
I deleted all my Photoshop settings in Roaming>Adobe>Photoshop CC 2014
I uninstalled Photoshop without saving preferences, removed all files and folders and then reinstalled.
Photoshop will still not copy and paste.

I honestly don't know what may be wrong on your system to cause what you're seeing, but I can confirm that on my fully updated Windows 8.1 Pro x64 system equipped with ATI 7850 I can do cut/copy/pastes as you would like to do, so it's not a basic incompatibility.
Are you selecting the characters by dragging the mouse across them, then copying?
When pasting, have you set an insertion point first?
