Photoshop installation affects MS Access bitmap handling

I have a problem, after installation of Photoshop CS5 in Windows, MS Access (I tried on Windows 7 and XP) does not longer show embedded bitmaps in database forms. Access can show only BMP files, so Photoshop installation somehow interferes with MS Office handling of this format. After deinstallation, everything returns to normal behaviour. The only workaround I came up is to backup Windows registry before Photoshop installation, then install it, and restore registry from backup afterwards. However, it removes all Photoshop's associations and stuff which is in registry. I wonder if anyone had the same problem, and if there are any solutions?

Welcome to the forum.
I wonder if this in not just a simple file association issue. As PS can handle BMP's, it might change the File Type Association (Control Panel>Folder Options>File Type), and if one goes there, and re-assigns the File Type Association back to MS Access, whether it would work, as before?
I'd reinstall PS, and then change the BMP File Type Association to MS Access, and test.
Good luck,
Hunt

  • Creative Cloud Creative Cloud Photoshop installs but will not launch

    Hi, my Creative Cloud Photoshop latest version installs but will not launch. When I try it opens a page with a long error code report. I uninstalled and reinstalled Photoshop several times with the same result. I downloaded and tried the Adobe Creative Suite Cleaner Tool, as I found as a solution in the help forum, but since I uninstalled Photoshop before I ran the Cleaner Tool there are installed applications, and AdobeCreativeCloudDriver. Should I hit the clean all CS6 button at the bottom of the window. There is nothing including Photoshop in this list.

    You will have to provide system info and the exact errors. Nobody can help based on vague "This doesn't work" posts.

  • Why doesn't Photoshop touch ask for access to local photos on my iPad so I can grant access and edit?

    Why doesn't Photoshop touch ask for access to local photos on my iPad so I can grant access and edit?

    That's odd. Does this mean that you want to have the request or that you can't see the photos even though you enabled it over the privacy/photos?
    If you enable it - it's not necessary to get the request. If you want the request the safest way to get it back is to reset the privacy settings by going to iPad settings/General/Reset/Reset Location & Privacy

  • Please run the Photoshop installer and re-install Photoshop

    Hi!
    I just upgraded to PS CS% from PS CS3 Extended. Download went well as well as installation.
    After, i deactivate CS3 then i uninstall it using Adobe installer.
    Each time, i opened CS5, i have the following message:
    "One or more files in the Adobe Application Support folder, necessary for running Photoshop, are missing.  Please run the Photoshop installer and re-install Photoshop."
    I reinstalled it but i'm still having the same message. I didn't play much with it but it seems to work properly...
    What could it be?
    Regards!

    The problem most likely is uninstalling an older version after installing the new one.
    The Uninstaller removes certain support files which it can't tell are the new ones.
    The solution in your case is to uninstall CS5 first, then uninstall CS3, run the Adobe CSClean Script, Repair Permissions with Apple's Disk Utility, only then install CS5, and the Repair Permissions with Apple's Disk Utility again.
    All Adobe upgrades are full installers and do not need to find a previous version of the software installed.  When they don't find a previous version of the software installed, they'll just prompt you for the old serial number.
    It's not mandatory to uninstall older versions, but if you don't want to keep the older versions, uninstall them first, before installing a newer version.  I have all versions of Photoshop from 7.0.1 through 11.0.2 ("CS4") happily coexisting on my machine.  I can even run two versions of Photoshop simultaneously, just by launching the older version first and assigning separate scratch disk volumes to each.

  • Just updated CC 2014, Photoshop launches with message to run Photoshop Installer: where is this?

    On updating Photoshop CC 2014 and launching I get a dialog, "One or more files in the Adobe Application Support folder, necessary for sunning Photoshop, are missing. Please run the Photoshop installer and reinstall Photoshop."
    Where is Photoshop Installer?
    This update also wiped all my extensions without warning, not so cool Adobe.

    Sometimes uninstalling old versions can take out common files. I uninstalled CS4 only to get errors with CS6. I had to reinstall CS6 to get rid of the errors.
    In any case you may want to keep/install CC for a while. The extensions technology has changed and what ran in CC, won't in CC 2014.
    If you depend on your legacy extensions, at least you want to hold on to CC until they are updated. And of course if any glitches show up in 2014.2 and future updates, you may want CC as a backup until it's corrected.
    I may have missed some details, so these links should help you.

  • CS5.1 overrides CS5 registry entries, how do I get the photoshop installation location safely?

    Hi there,
    I'm creating a installer for my Photoshop plugins, so I need to find out Photoshop installation directory. I did this by looking for registry 'HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Adobe\Photoshop\', but I found that CS5.1 will override the CS5 registry entries - they are both in ’HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Adobe\Photoshop\12.0‘
    So how can I distinguish CS5 and CS5.1 in the registry? Or how can I get the correct installation direcotry for both CS5.1 and CS5?
    Thanks,
    Daniel

    You can't on Windows. On Mac they did the right thing and made a seperate .paths files. On Windows they just tromped on the CS5 registry entries with the CS5.1 entries, even though it's a completely seperate application installation with its own plugin path. Not too cool.
    Although, it only matters if you encounter the probably rare corner case where a user has both CS5 and CS5.1 installed AND wants to put the plugins into the CS5 plugin path. We just punted and can only install into CS5.1 in that case, unless the user manually selects the installation location. It hasn't generated any significant support issues for us that I know of.

  • Photoshop Elements won't access my HP printer

    When I click on Print, my HP Fax software is opened even though the printer is selected.  I reinstalled my printer software and still no luck.   The printer software is the default.   I see that others have had this problem but I haven't seen any suggested solutions for this.

    Thanks, that did the trick.

    This solution has been mentioned several times: The names of the printer and fax are too long.  In Windows, open the properties of each device and rename them to something like "HP Printer" and "HP Fax". Ken

  • How to access the handle of  the Frame window ?

    How to access the handle of the frame window through out the application ?. I want to display an alert box, while I click the fifth inner child component of the Frame . I am using Dialog Class for the alert box, I have to pass the frame handle to the Dialog constructer, I am getting the handle of the frame by getParent().getParent()......getParent().. But can any one suggest any better solution.

    If you application extends Frame or JFrame, you could simply refer to "this", or if you create a global or final Frame object that you use as your "top-level" component, you could refer to it this way. Additionally, if you're ever in a situation where you really need to go all the way to the top through n levels of components, I believe you could always do something like this...
    // assume myContainer is the "child" component that you're on, and you want to find its top-level parent
    Container c = myContainer;
    while (c.getParent() != null) {
         c = c.getParent();
    }

  • Ios VPN access form handled devices

    hi
    someone here had configured on a router the vpn access form handled devices?
    Really i don't know where to start!

    You must select one of the following modes of operation when you enable the PIX Firewall as an Easy VPN Remote device:
    Client modeIn this mode, VPN connections are initiated by traffic, so resources are only used on demand. In client mode, the PIX Firewall applies Network Address Translation (NAT) to all IP addresses of clients connected to the inside (higher security) interface of the PIX Firewall. To use this mode, you must also enable the DHCP server on the inside interface, as described in " Using the PIX Firewall DHCP Server."
    Network extension modeIn this mode, VPN connections are kept open even when not required for transmitting traffic. This option does not apply NAT to any IP addresses of clients on the inside (higher security) interface of the PIX Firewall.
    In network extension mode, the IP addresses of clients on the inside interface are received without change at the Easy VPN Server. If these addresses are registered with the Network Information Center (NIC), they may be forwarded to the public Internet without further processing. Otherwise, they may be translated by the Easy VPN Server or forwarded to a private network without translation.

  • CS4 Photoshop Installer Hangs

    When I try installing Adobe Photoshop, the installer will pop the setup for a second or two, close it and continue system checking at 80%. Ive tried all the things the said on the Knowledge Base, and still cant get it to work ( This page to be precise http://kb2.adobe.com/cps/407/kb407428.html ) It Shows in Add/Remove that Photoshop is installed, yet if I hit the button to remove it, it Crashes the setup. I Have also tried Multiple Downloads, which futilely changed nothing.

    The Photoshop installer has always been garbage. You didn't post your operating system so try this:
    Turn off any anti-virus and windows defender.
    If you have Adobe reader installed remove it.
    Defrag the hard drive before install. I would run defrag again after install.
    If you DON'T have Vista SP2 installed or Windows 7: Download and install the windows installer 4.5 as it fixed many software install issues.
    http://www.microsoft.com/downloads/details.aspx?FamilyID=5a58b56f-60b6-4412-95b9-54d056d6f 9f4&displaylang=en
    Now is CS4 a trial downloaded from the Adobe site? If so then there is nothing you can do.
    If you have downloaded the paid version off the adobe website put the whole folder on the desktop and run the .exe file, in the folder, as Admin.
    If you have purchased a PS CS4 CD put the disk in the DVD drive and let it start but don't run the software. Close out of it. what you want to try is go to your computer and find the DVD drive and open or explore. Look for the .exe file, right click on that and choose run as administrator.
    When you get it installed remember to run the software as Admin too. also remember to update the software to 11.0.1
    If the software is installed messed up you need to run the CS4 cleaner. don't run it as 1 or 2 level, type in level 3.
    also search your hard drive for any remaining adobe folders and remove them.
    Also run the MS installer cleanup utility:
    http://support.microsoft.com/kb/290301
    You can run a free software program called CCleaner. I use it all the time to clean out left over crapola.
