Photoshop re-installation

What is the honest way to migrate my Photoshop Elements 9 from my old onto my new computer?

The honest way is to use your disks that came in the box of the software. The discs are also needed to get the serial number because the numbers are affixed on the back the CD/DVD case.
If you are not using the old computer then it is a good idea to deactivate the product from it by going to:
Help >> Deactivate.
I hope this helps.

Photoshop CS2 installation failures

I have been having trouble with Photoshop CS2 installation. PS was working fine bur 3 days ago told me there was a serious error and I had to reinstall which I have tried 5 times but it gets to the end and tells me a file is missing and to quit which I do but no PS. Adobe told me to create a disc image using disk utility and install from that. Still failed. I had to install on another bootable disc with 10.4.0 and it worked so there is a software conflict somewhere, probably with the latest security update (2007) but I do not want to have to reformat my HD and reinstall ALL my software from scratch and then NOT update to latest software without knowing what is going on. Can anyone offer any suggestions please.
Adobe say there is no conflict issue with latest security update. Have tried all sorts of install methods but it always fails at the last hurdle!
David

Firstly I am not installing the whole suite of software, only PS CS2 so Version Cue is not a problem.
Adobe also say there is no conflict issue with Apple security update and CS2. They tell me about making sure I have admin read and write for registrations database but this asumes I have PS installed which I cannot
Secondly I tried the CS3 Beta download which incidentally is 685Mb and it will not mount, so I will have to try another lengthy download

Photoshop CC installation hung at "Waiting..." in Creative Cloud window.

2013-06-17
Downloaded and installed new version of Adobe Application Manager which magically turned into the new Creative Cloud window. Found the Photoshop CC entry and clicked "Install" after which the download took lots of minutes and then switched to an "Extracting Photoshop CC" message which took more minutes. Okay, now it's saying "Installing Photoshop CC." After a few minutes, seems stuck at 70%. After a few more minutes, it's still stuck at 70%.
Clicked the "x" button to stop the installation and waited for the "Install" button reappear. I pressed "Install" again and got the messages "Installing Photoshop CC" followed by "Extracting Photoshop CC" which is still on the screen. Down where the "Install" button was appeared the message "Extracting..." but that soon changed to "Waiting...". After 10 minutes of "Waiting...", I clicked the "x" next to the "waiting" message to cancel the "Photoshop CC" installation. The "Install" button returned almost immediately.
I went to the https://creative.adobe.com site then to the Download Center. I clicked on the "Photoshop" icon and then on the "Download" button on the "Photoshop CC" page. That action fired up the Creative Cloud app on my machine and the download started again. The first message is "Installing Photoshop CC" and the percentage value is increasing (good)! There's a little progress bar in the Creative Cloud window. The display changed from "Installing Photoshop CC (49%)" to "Extracting Photoshop CC..." and where the progress bar was in now the word "Extracting...". After a couple of minutes (maybe 3 or 4), the word "Extracting..." turned into "Waiting...". I think I hate this. The legend at the top of the Creative Cloud window still reads "Extracting Photoshop CC...". After 10-11 minutes, the message "Waiting..." is still there. Someone suggested "close your browser" to get the ball rolling again, so I closed Chrome at 11:47 PM. I still have the "Waiting..." message. I'm going to click "x" and try again. Did so at 11:48 PM. After taking a break (time now 11:59 PM), message is "Extracting..." but at 12:00 midnight the message changed to "Waiting...". What the heck is it waiting for? Behavior is identical to when browser was running. Now it's 12:12 AM and still "Waiting...". I suppose it'll be like this until morning. Maybe I should kill all other processes. Did so but no help. Now it's 12:55 AM and still "Waiting...".
I have PS CS6 and LR5 installed (but neither running) on my Windows 7 64-bit 16GB machine. I'm running Webroot Secure Anywhere.
What next steps should I take to get past this Ps CC installation blockage?
Update 1:36 AM
It's now 1:36 AM and I still have the "Waiting..." message.
There are four copies of "Adobe CEF Helper.exe *32" running and one copy of "CEPServiceManager.exe *32" (a.k.a., "Adobe CEP Service Manager"). Also, one copy each of "Creative Cloud Helper.exe *32" and "Creative Cloud.exe *32" are running.
Thanks,

Thank you, Arpit. With your help I seem to be up and running with Photoshop CC.
I did these things:
Manually killed all Adobe processes including a "setup.exe" I had not noticed before.
Used Add/Remove programs to remove the Creative Cloud app and a partially installed version of Adobe Photoshop CC.
Restarted computer
Renamed the two OOBE directories you specified.
I ran AdobeCreativeCloudCleaner.exe as admin but elected to exit when I saw that I'd have to remove Ps CS6 as well as CC.
Restarted computer, again.
Downloaded and ran CreativeCloudSet-Up.exe then signed in and navigated to the "Apps" panel.
Clicked "Install" next to the Photoshop CC icon at 5:58 AM; the installation completed at 6:12 AM with an "up to date" message near the Photoshop CC icon.
I quickly tested both Ps CS6 and Ps CC to see that both would run -- they both did run.
In LR5 I noticed that the "Edit In > Adobe Photoshop CS6" has been replaced by "Edit In > Adobe Photoshop CC"
When I attempted to open an image in Ps CC via LR5, I was told to "Update Adobe Camera Raw" so I opened Ps CC manually, checked for updates -- there were three total including ACR, Ps CC itself, and one other which I think was "something something Extensions"
Restarted computer, again (following advice from updater mentioned above) after which Ps CC seems to work well with LR5.
Deleted the two renamed OOBE directories (step 4 above) after verifying new OOBE directories had been created.
My only problem now is figuring out how to get Ps CC to see my third-party filters (e.g., NIK, Topaz, Redfield). I'll probably just have to reinstall them all.
I supposed I can uninstall Ps CS6 without affecting Ps CC, right?
Thanks again for your help,

Photoshop CS3 installer

Hello,
I bought Photoshop CS3 a few months ago, but I lost the installer disc. I still have product key. I only need a link for Photoshop CS3 installer 30day trial, and then I can activate it. Could someone give me link to the Photoshop CS3 installer? (Not the extended version)
thanks

Obviously not from Adobe. It hasn't been available from Adobe since 2008.
If you registered it with Adobe, the serial and download link should be available by logging in to your Adobe account.
Try http://prodesigntools.com/download-adobe-cs4-and-cs3-free-trials-here.html
If successful, KEEP A COPY locally for future use. No guarantee that these links will hang around forever.
Photoshop Std and Extended is the same file. Standard version or Extended will be unlocked when you enter your serial number.
The installer will recognize your serial as a Standard version and that's what'll be installed on your machine.

Photoshop CC Installation issues are causing a bsod

Tried installing Photoshop CC 4x, only Photoshop, same result. BSOD detailing a kernal fault. Ran memtest, chkdsk. No errors found.
It would install to 95%, stay for 5min or so, then typically blue screen.
The last time I tried I got an interesting error:
"Setup.exe - Application Error
the instruction at 0x00000000770CAFCB referenced memory at 0x000000005C35A38C. The required data was not placed into memory because of an I/O error status of 0xc0000056."
In the Creative Cloud app, it stated Photoshop CC installation failed and had a "more info" link:
"There was a problem installing Photoshop CC
For more info....
Installation failed
Installation completed though some optional components failed to install correctly. (6)"
I had to then manually shut down the computer as it was frozen.
Specs:
Windows 7
intel core i7-2860QM
16GB RAM
NVIDIA GeForce GTX 580M
C: 32GB free

And what disk setup? This behavior is typical of flakey SATA drivers and/or sectors of your harddrive being inaccessible to produce the activation footprint, which on some SSDs or platter drives with "reserve" is by design and may require setting certain options eitehr by using configuration tools or physically changing the dip switches/ contact bridges used to confiure the drives...

How do you add existing plugins to a new Photoshop cc installation?

How do you add existing plugins to a new Photoshop cc installation?

If it's CC or CC 2014, you check with your plugin makers and download their latest installer. Never attempt to move plugins from an old to a new install.

Adobe Photoshop CS4 Installation Error

I'm new to this site and my computer has Vista Home Premium Service Pack 1.
After I installed Photoshop CS4 trial, it failed to install Photoshop, but the rest were successful. I went to get more information and this is the message:
Adobe Fonts All
Error:
Error 1603. Error 1907.Could not register font . Verify that you have sufficient permissions to install fonts, and that the system supports this font.

If there is a topic similar to this one, then I shouldn't be here!

I have been using Adobe Photoshop CS4 for a few months now without any problems or errors.
But last week.. i had a virus problem and decided to do a Clean Installation of my Operating System.
I was not too worried because I have done this millions of times already... and know the process like the back of my hand.
Well.. after the clean installation was complete, i started to load my applications.
To my surprise.. Adobe Photoshop CS4 would not install. Nor would Adobe Illustrator CS4.
It would get to the screen "Adobe is beginig the installation process" and would stall ..
At first... i thought it would eventually complete on it's own.. but after a few attempts and hours of the same screen with no progress.. it was obvious Adobe was no longer responding at that stage.
I searched high and low, night and day, over a few days trying to figure out the problem.
I was trouble-shooting everything.
In the middle of trouble-shooting, i took a break to surf the Net and see if i could find any suggestions when i ran into this Forum.
Someone mentioned disabling your Internet Security & Windows Defender.. and i thought.. no way.. it can't be that easy.
Well.. what do you know.. it was my Internet Security (Kaspersky Internet Security 2010)
After disabling Kaspersky Internet Security 2010, Adobe flew right pass the part where it was stalling, and finished installation without incident.
Adobe Illustrator CS4 also installed without any problems ...
I just wanted to share my experience as i know how frustrating it can be when software refuses to install.
Good Luck to everyone.. be patient.. trial & error. .. and im sure you'll figure it out.

"downloaded Photoshop CS4 here and i tried to install as trial (30 days), Error: "Please insert Photoshop C4 into drive E:/ to continue instalation" what's wrong? What should I do? To install free trial? Tks"
@ ApologetX
I had a similar problem when i extracted the contents of my Adobe DVD and made an ISO file out of it so i would no longer need the DVD for installation.
But what i realized is that.. Adobe will not install if it's installed from the ISO.. and during installation.. an error would pop up.. and ask for the DVD
You probably have done something similar.
Here's what i did to fix:
- Extract the contents of Adobe Photoshop CS4 into a Folder
- and install from that ..
After i extracted the contents and installed from "setup.exe" .. the installation completed without error ..
DVD
- If you're having problems from the DVD .. then try to extract the Contents of the DVD on to your Desktop..
and install from there ..
Trial Installer
- As for the Trial you are referring to .. im not familiar with it ..
but try to extract the contents of it to your Desktop .. and go from there ..
Good Luck

Photoshop CS4 Installation Crash Issues

Hey all.
I was installing the trial version of CS4 (on Vista) when my power went out. When I tried to install again, I kept getting this error message:
>- undefined
>- The installer database is invalid: please re-install the product from the original media
I checked the log and these are the errors I picked up:

I've tried a ton of different *solutions* to try and fix this. My attempt to uninstall via control panel failed, i got the same error message is the install. I can't find any CS4 folders in the regedit, so that didn't work. I downloaded windows install wizard utility, ran that, as well as the adobe cs4 cleanup script.
I manually deleted the common files > installer folder. I even uninstalled the illustrator CS4 trial.
Lastly i did a system restore.
Nothing seems to work.
Any suggestions?
Thanks in advance!

Could You post the file (provided it’s not too big) or at least a screenshot of the 3D (Materials)-Panel with some of the problematic Material selected?

Photoshop CS3 installs but won't run on new OS install

Hello,
I've been searching through the forums and have seen some users with a similar problem, but haven't found any info that's relevant to my situation.
I have done a fresh install of Windows XP Pro SP2 and decided to install a brand-new copy of CS3 at the same time.
This computer is totally fresh - there are no printers, no TWAIN drivers, no funny fonts or games installed. The only software on this machine is Windows and whatever updates Windows Update has pushed out.
The Photoshop installer runs fine - no crashes or error messages. However, when I try to start up Photoshop, I just get the outer frame of the app window and (usually) the File / Edit / Image / Layer... menu bar. There is no splash screen, and no palettes appear. If I click anywhere in the app window, the menu bar disappears and the title bar says "Not responding".
I've tried uninstalling and reinstalling from both the DVD and the web download. I've tried selecting the "repair" option on the install screen. I've tried downloading and installing the 10.0.1 update.
I tried installing Lightroom and Reader to see if those work (they do).
I tried installing the latest video driver for my gfx card.
None of these change the behaviour I've been seeing at all. I opened a support case with Adobe about 4 days ago but haven't gotten a response yet.
Any thoughts? I was able to run PS CS1 on this computer just fine before I formatted the hard drive and reinstalled everything, so I don't think it's a hardware issue.
Thanks,
Thomas Park

Hi Guys,
Ive got the same problems as you, Win XP SP2 on RAID 1 hard disk set on an AMD raid controller, but I have no driver to roll-back to.
Ive installed Photoshop CS3 and also Acrobat Standard 8 (which used to run fine on an old system), but all i get now is the blank window with the menu and title bar and thats all.
Can some one help? (will this licensing patch resolve the issue - and where can i get it from?)
Thanks
