Please help me go from PS Ver 6 to what works in Windows 7

Hi - I have been under a rock using my Photoshop 6 for eons. I'm about to get a new laptop with - da da duuuun - Windows 7. Low and behold, I figured I check and see if my dinosaur Photoshop 6 will work *big buzzer sound* not gonna happen. So I'm all 'duhhh' I'll just get the new version of Photoshop that works uhhh ... no. Can someone PLEASE help me? I edit photos, make designs to do home silkscreening and make print material like business cards. I am not that great compared to professionals but my friends all ask me to make stuff for them they think I'm a wiz - - never had a class and can never remember what lots of the tools do so I have limited use but make some pretty nice stuff in the end.
What version would you recommend? Basically I do have a business and make my own graphics and edit scanned in drawing and edit clipart, ect - I don't even know how to make designs/art on the computer - use a lot of fonts - so the super professional stuff is obviously not for me. I also have Illustrator 11 and streamline 4.0 - if any of you remember those
So what do you think??
Thanks so much in advance!

I don't use it a lot, but as far as I can see everything seems to work.  I didn't do anything special to install it; I don't even have the compatibility stuff checked.  I'm running Windows 7 Ultimate x64.
I have UAC disabled (and I know all the things that implies), but conceivably even with UAC enabled if you set Photoshop 6's shortcut attributes to Run As Administrator I imagine you shouldn't have any problems.
Best thing to do is try it.

    You probably need to either uninstall and reinstall itunes or to download the apple application support by itself
    you can download the itunes http://www.apple.com/itunes/ here
    then to do a complete uninstall / reinstall follow these instructions http://support.apple.com/kb/ht1923
    you could also use 7zip to extract the individual installer for apple application support from the itunes setup file http://www.7-zip.org

    Hi polachan,
    Since this is SQL Server forum, as other post, you need to describe your table structure, the data and expected results. Then it is appropriate and more experts will assist you in there.
    According to your code message, it does not regards SQL Server T-SQL statement. We need to verify if there are two tables (workhrs and I_db_hrs), after checking the values of “ Monday”,”Tuesday”,”Wednesday” from the workhrs table, then copy the related working
    hours into the new table (I_db_hrs),  right?
    If yes, you can refer to the following T-SQL statement.
    create table workhrs
    (id int, workname varchar(20), ardate varchar(10), hrs int)
    insert into workhrs
    values
    (1, 'A','monday',1),
    (1, 'A','tuesday',3),
    (1, 'A','wednesday',5),
    (2, 'B','monday',1),
    (2, 'B','tuesday',1),
    (3, 'C','monday',1),
    (3, 'C','wednesday',2)
    select * from workhrs
    select id, ardate, hrs into I_db_hrs from workhrs
    select * from I_db_hrs order by ardate
    ---the result:
    id ardate hrs
    1 monday 1
    2 monday 1
    3 monday 1
    2 tuesday 1
    1 tuesday 3
    1 wednesday 5
    3 wednesday 2

    iOS 4.2.1 is the latest version of iOS for the 3G.
    Facebook and Whatsapp both require 4.3 or higher.
    If you want to use those apps, either use the old version that should be in your iTunes library or upgrade the hardware to a 3GS or newer device.

    Yes, I am connected to the Internet through my wifi. Everything is working fine with the e  eption of youtube.  I have reset all Internet settings and have tried synching to iTunes followed by rebooting.  This is all the advice I have found although none of it has been helpful.

    Hi,
    I suggest you check the fix in this article:
    Fix: Internet Explorer freezes, crashes, hangs in Windows 7 | 8
    http://www.thewindowsclub.com/internet-explorer-freezes-crashes-hangs
    If it doesn't work, please help to post back the IE crash dump file here for our research:
    First enable app crash dump collection by copying following words into notepad, saving it as dump.reg and importing it:
    Windows Registry Editor Version 5.00
    [HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\Windows Error Reporting\localdumps\iexplore.EXE]
    "DumpFolder"=hex(2):63,00,3a,00,5c,00,63,00,72,00,61,00,73,00,68,00,64,00,75,\
      00,6d,00,70,00,73,00,00,00
    "DumpCount"=dword:00000010
    "DumpType"=dword:00000001
    "CustomDumpFlags"=dword:00000000
    Then, open IE to repro the issue. If crash issue appeared, please find the crashdump file under c:\.
    To further help you, please upload this file into Skydrive and shared the link here.
    Also, you can try to analyze dump by yourself if you would like to:

    Did you download and install the Windows Support software? If you did, did you use the Boot Camp Control icon to set up the trackpad how you want it?

  • Help -- Getting my Audigy Pro 4 RM-1500 working in windows 7 X64

    @Help -- Getting my Audigy Pro 4 RM-500 working in windows 7 X64. To anyone who can help
    ?I used the latest version of daniel_k's most excellent drivers to install?my Audigy Pro 4 ?(with external box) on a Windows 7 X64 operating system and all the audio devices I have tested so far have worked great.
    However, I can't seem to get the rm-500 remote working. I have installed the lasted (0/30) version of mediasouce5;? and the drivers for my remote do not seem to be included.
    The closest I can come is the beta version of the vista entertainment center which does install a remote control settings configuator. However, it doesn't seem to recognice the Audigy Pro 4's version of the rm-500, even though it is listed as an option. I get a "can't find an ir device" error.
    Any suggestions for me as to how I can get it working, if it all?
    Much Thanks!
    Jackalope

    D When I was beta testing Windows 7, I had the same problem with my remote for X-Fi Platinum Fatalty Champion. I discovered a program called Intelliremote (just Google it) that worked great. It works with Creative remotes. I found for some reason the beta driver of entertainment center, in compatibility mode, works with the final version of Win 7. I hope this hel

  • PLEASE HELP LOCATE SONGS FROM EXTERNAL HD (Cloud)

    First off, I would like to thank ANYONE who can help me out please! I am desperate now for some advice to help me through this, I have spent the last 10 Hours (Not Exaggerating) trying to find a solution to my problem online and reading through countless things I HAVE NOT been able to get an answer to resolve the issue that I am having. Please I beg you to help me! I just wanna call Apple Support so that someone can walk me through this but I am using a Windows and they won't take calls from Windows users (which is kind of lame since I am an Iphone/Ipad/Itunes customer just not on an Apple Computer) and honestly I would even pay money to have this issue fixed already I just don't wanna waste any more time on it!!!
    SO, that being said. Here is the most concise explanation I can give you of my troubles!
    1. I have both a Laptop and a Desktop. My Laptop has been my primary source for Itunes for the passed 8 years, however, it is old and I want to start using my Desktop for Itunes from now on..also, I NEED to free up space on my Laptop so that I can back up my Iphone 5 which has a broken screen, but that's another story!
    2. I Purchased something called a "WD MY CLOUD" Which is basically a personal ICloud that has 2TB of external HD Space on it. I hooked up my WDMyCloud and configured it, got it working perfectly, and I began the multiple hour long process to transfer my ITUNES Folder from my Laptop over to the WDMyCloud.
    3. All of the files and songs were successfully transferred from my Laptop to the WDMyCloud.
    4. I Installed Itunes onto my Desktop.
    5. I shift+clicked Itunes and chose the Itunes Library from my WDMyCloud. I believe the file is found in: \\WDMYCLOUD\Oliver\iTunes\iTunes Library. (And that is the .itl)
    6. When I have Itunes open, I go to preferences, and I change the MEDIA Folder to the iTunes Music Folder located on my WDMyCloud. I believe the file is found as: \\WDMYCLOUD\Oliver\Itunes\iTunes Music. (It does have all of my songs in there on the WDMyCloud in Folders by Album or however itunes had it organized)
    7. Now I am staring at my Itunes Playlists and All of my Songs are there, however, whenever I try to Play ANY Song on there I receive this error: "The song "xx" could not be used because the original file could not be found. Would you like to Locate it?" (And no, I would not like to manually locate over 3,000 songs)
    Also, every single Song has an "!" Exclamation mark next to it.
    8. If I use "Get Info" about the track to see where Itunes is looking for the track, I will show you an example now here to what it says:
    "file://localhost/C:/Users/Oliver/Downloads/Firebeatz - Gangster (Original Mix).mp3"
    (Now I do realize that this is incorrect, it should be looking for the songs in my WDMyCloud, that path above is from my Laptop's Downloads Folder and I have no idea how to fix this.)
    9. I have also tried using the "FindTracks.vbs" on my \\WDMYCLOUD\Oliver\Itunes\iTunes Music Folder and this did nothing, at all.
    10. I have opened the Itunes Library XML that is saved onto my WDMyCloud from my Laptop, and it shows the script as:
    <plist version="1.0"><dict><key>Major Version</key><integer>1</integer><key>Minor Version</key><integer>1</integer><key>Date</key><date>2014-05-24T16:40:35Z</date><key>Application Version</key><string>11.2</string><key>Features</key><integer>5</integer><key>Show Content Ratings</key><true/><key>Music Folder</key><string>file://localhost//WDMYCLOUD/Oliver/Itunes/iTunes%20Music</string><key>Library Persistent ID</key><string>5C3728163E81BB1D</string><key>Tracks</key>
    <p
    ^^ Now I'm not really sure how clumped up that is going to look once I post cuz when I tried copy/pasting it from the XML on to here it came out looking super weird, but as you can see the key thing there is that the file it says it's looking in is the Itunes Music file in my WDMyCloud. So I don't know what could be wrong with the XML script path if there is anything wrong with it at all. The rest of the XML is super super long list of all my tracks and albums an such which is obviously unimportant to this matter. But maybe this can help figure out my problem.
    Anyway, that's about as far as I was able to get after 10 hours of research, and like I said, still no solution. I'm stuck! Please please please help me figure this out! One of the biggest reasons I purchased this WDMyCloud was to use it as a consistent Itunes mediator between my devices and I absolutely MUST free up space on my Laptop ASAP and this is the only way! Thank you so much for your help in advance!!

    See Make a split library portable for some general advice on making a working library portable. It should be less hassle than fixing a broken one.
    Since the library works perfectly on the laptop I would suggest you start over and do it like this;
    1. Create a new iTunes folder in the root of the external as \\WDMYCLOUD\iTunes (capitalised as shown please, just to appease my OCD)
    2. Copy into it the following items from C:\Users\Oliver\Music\iTunes
    Album Artwork
    iTunes Library.itl
    iTunes Library Extras.itdb
    iTunes Library Genius.itdb
    sentinel
    3. Shift-start iTunes and open the library at \\WDMYCLOUD\iTunes\iTunes Library.itl
    4. Under Edit > Preferences > Advanced change the media folder to \\WDMYCLOUD\iTunes\iTunes Media (again capitalised as shown please)
    5. Use File > Library > Organize Library. Tick both boxes, or the one that isn't greyed out, then click OK.
    iTunes will gather in copies of all your media files, putting them into the correct locations so that the library is in the modern layout, and able to be moved from one machine to another.
    I'd recommend you clone the entire iTunes folder to another drive (see this backup tip) before you think about cleaning the originals.
    If your library is large then having the library files on a network share will slow things down as the database has to be written out almost any time you do anything with your library. Once you've connected the library to the new computer and had it opened and working you can copy the library files and Album Artwork folder into the local C:\Users\Oliver\Music\iTunes folder (deleteing what is already there first) then shift-start-iTunes and connect to C:\Users\Oliver\Music\iTunes\iTunes Library.itl. If/when you want to move the library to a different drive/computer copy the files back out to the drive and access the library there at lease once before the move.
