Problems with Help menu in photoshop CS2

When I try and access the help menu and then "photoshop help" (or press the F1 Button) in photoshop cs2 I get the following error.
"the operation could not be completed"
I then press ok on this and the following pops up.
"The instruction at "0x00864a4d" reverenced memory at "0X00F40B08". The memory could not be "written". Click ok to terminate the program"
I have win xp professionals sp2 and am using cs2.
Pc is lintel dual core with 2gb of ram.
I have uninstalled and reinstalled but still recieve error.
Does anybody have any ideas how to fix this?

MTSTUNER's advice is right on in this case.  I've seen problems with the older versions of Photoshop not being able to write to their installation areas because of UAC.
If Run As Administrator doesn't work, one additional thing you can try is to turn the UAC level down to the lowest setting, run Photoshop once, then return UAC to its default (or leave it off, your choice).

  • Problems with my registration of Photoshop CS2

    I have owned different versions of Photoshop over the years, and the latest version I have is CS2.
    I have it installed on two computers, one running Windows XP and the other running Windows Vista.
    Apparently,  Adobe has me under two IDs, both  using the same email address,  but with different physical addresses, my old one and my new one.   All my registration information is apparently stored under the one with the old address, but I can only get access to the one with the new address when I go to the Adobe website.   That one doesn't see my registrations.
    For the past several years I've worked primarily under Linux, using gimp, but I just got a new printer, which is not supported under Linux, so I have to use Windows and Photoshop to print.
    Every time I start Photoshop CS2 on the second computer, it tells me I need to register.  If I do---needlessly I presume---it accepts the registration, but then the next time I start  the program, it does the same thing over again.
    I can live with this, but if there is some simple way to fix it, I would like to do so.  I've spent a lot of time talking to Adobe on the phone or using chat online, but haven't got any help on this matter.
    Also, I hope to make some changes to my system in the near future.    First, I will probably upgrade both computers to Windows 7.  Second, I may replace one of the computers with a new computer.  Finally I may  upgrade to Photoshop CS5.
    Can anyone give me any advice about how to go about these things so as to end up with two legitamate versions of Photoshop on two computers, and so as to avoid problems..    I am worried that I may have to spend hours on the phone trying to get it done.

  • I'm new to Mac, after many PCs. I have a new "all in one" I use Hughesnet gen 4 for Internet. I can't use my Mac help menu...I get message that it is not available. I took it back to store and no problem with help menu. I was told by Apple Genius bar that

    I can't get to computer help menus, get error not available at this time. I was told by apple that the problem is with Hughesnet Gen 4. I called them and they have no answers. No other problems accessing the net.I have lots of questions as I am new to Mac and this is very frustrating. Can anyone help?

    Can't really help with your Internet issues, but I can put you on the path to leaning more about Macs.
    If you're a former Windows user, there many resources on Apple's web site to get yourself familiar with how Macs and OS X work.
    Here ard a few areas to spend time with

    http://support.apple.com/videos/
    http://www.apple.com/support/lion/
    http://www.apple.com/support/osx/
    For the video tutorials, in the video search box, just type in OS X. You'll get a list of OS X video tutorials to watch  as you learn to use your iMac.
    Start with the Anatomy of a Mac video first, Then the Finder Basics video second. After you have watched and put to use these two videos, you can watch any other OS X video you want in any order.
    Here is a free eBook download of David Pogue's OS X Snow Leopard The Missing Manual here. While OS X 10.7 LIon and OS X 10.8 Mountain Lion work a bit differently than OS X 10.6 Snow Leopard, there are many things that still apply.

    Yes, you have to have a document open or you can open a 3D file (OBJ, 3DS, DAE, LMZ, or U3D)
    If you open a document and then open the 3D Panel there are a variety of create 3D options.

  • Has anyone else encountered problems with Adobe CMM clobbering Photoshop add-in filters?

    I recently tried to install Adobe CMM, as a pop-up window suggested after I installed Photoshop CS5 on a new computer, running Win7x64 Ultimate. Before trying to install CMM, my Akvis Sketch Plug-In for Photoshop worked fine. Afterwards, Akvis Sketch runs under the filters menu, but will not accept mouse clicks from my Wacom tablet. Prior to Adobe CMM, all was fine. Somehow, the frustrating attempt to use Adobe CMM broke links to Akvis Sketch.
    By the way, Adobe CMM setup tried to run and vanished without a trace - no indication of success or failure. CMM doesn't show on my control panel as installed software, so I can't de-install it.
    I did un-install Akvis Sketch and re-install it. No luck as a filter, nor as a stand-alone program.
    Additional point of interest - a second identical software/hardware workstation continues to run Akvis Sketch just fine because we didn't try installing Adobe CMM on that machine. It certainly looks like CMM is the culprit here.
    Since Akvis Sketch is broken as a stand-alone, I doubt that de-activating, uninstalling and then re-installing, re-activating Photoshop CS5 will help, but it will take a lot of time to recreate actions and re-install other add-ins, plus preferences settings.
    Has anyone else encountered problems with Adobe CMM clobbering Photoshop add-in filters, and have you found a work-around?

    Thanks for your response. Recent evidence points to Wacom's tablet driver, not the plug-in.
    Fact #1 - another identical system with ms mouse worked fine so I swapped out the Wacom tablet and bingo, the Akvis plug-in works again.
    Fact #2 - So does Amazon's Kindle for PC app, which also quit working after running the Adobe CMM setup I'd downloaded.
    Suggestion - since there's a legacy for CS5 users getting the "you should download CMM" pop-up, yet no need to do this, maybe Adobe should remove the CMM download page from its website - or flag this download as unneccessary for photoshop users. All Best, Charles Pierce.

    Hi
    I have a problem with color prints from photoshop elements 12. The pictures are too light and with strange colors. I have a Canon pixma mg615I0 printer and use mac os X yosemite. The pictures are taken with a coanon eos 550d in the color space sRGB. I have followed adobes recommendations and have tried both letting the printer respektive photoshop manage the colors. But nothing works. I see that there are different opinions about which is best to do so I tried both. I have the latest printer driver installed. Can anyone help me with this?

    Do the following:
    Print a test page from the printer. Perhaps the print head needs cleaning via its maintenance facility.
    Let the printer manage colors, not PSE
    Calibrate the monitor

  • N95 problem with ''Help'' application

    Dear all,
    I've update recently my N95 with new software release 20.0.015, but the problem with help application is not resolved...The problem is the following: when I try to open HELP I receive the error message MEMORY FULL, but my free RAM is 23/24 MB and the free memory on the device is 112 MB. Can you help me to resolve this problem?
    Thanks

    I have the same problem - no in any applications or using the Help application itself.
    Of possible interest ?>: is a 'help folder' I have with a name displayed in the Help application as 4x boxes.
    Using: -Menu -Tools -Utilities -Help
    ...I have an odd looking file listed at the end (after 'ZipManager' & before '3-D ringing tones'). The name is displaying as 4 x boxes - presumably non display characters ?>
    Is this folder on all N95s ? (i.e even those with a working Help) ?
    Anyone know how/where to locate this folder ?

  • Problem with Help Link in search result screen of PCUI

    Hi,
      I am trying to access the pcui applications that came out of box with crm using BAB,everthing is working fine but got a problem with "Help" link in top right (beside personalize link) the search result area of all the PCUI screens.
    when i click on that i get "page cannot be displayed" error, seems that it is pointing to some wrong URL, where should i change the url to point to our company's help site for that link..
    clicking on the properties of that link shows that it is pointing to

    My response help resolve Kodru's Message which he also posted in EP Implementation Forum. He resolved it by changing the variant noted below.
    The link http://help.sap.com/saphelp_crm40/helpdata/EN/70/B4ED8E03595645A6ABA33B4576BB57/content.htm should display Activity Info.

    Secondly I would check the settings in the IMG -> SAP WAS -> Know. Mgt. -> Settings in App. Sys. -> Usage of Help Type "Dynamic Help". The Tab PlainHtmlHttp should have a variant called CRM_HELP, Server Name (help.sap.com) and path.

    /* Tips for Elastic layouts
    1. Since the elastic layouts overall sizing is based on the user's default fonts size, they are more unpredictable. Used correctly, they are also more accessible for those that need larger fonts size since the line length remains proportionate.
    2. Sizing of divs in this layout are based on the 100% font size in the body element. If you decrease the text size overall by using a font-size: 80% on the body element or the #container, remember that the entire layout will downsize proportionately. You may want to increase the widths of the various divs to compensate for this.
    3. If font sizing is changed in differing amounts on each div instead of on the overall design (ie: #sidebar1 is given a 70% font size and #mainContent is given an 85% font size), this will proportionately change each of the divs overall size. You may want to adjust based on your final font sizing.

  • Problem with blue color in Photoshop CS4 after calibrating monitor

    Hi to all! I would appreciate if someone can help me!
    Before some days I calibrated my monitor with Pantone Huey Pro and after that I find out that photoshop doesn't show blue color corectly. I create a blue (0,0,255) page and it looks a bit like violet, while I don't have any problems with red and green (which are perfect), or with other programs (other programs display blue and all colors correctly). But when I save this blue page and open it with a different program I see the real blue color. So the problem is that during editing in Photoshop blue color isn't correct, it's a bit violet.
    Can anyone tell me why blue color doesn't behave properly in Photoshop? Is there any setting I should change in Photoshop Color Settings?
    I use sRGB on my camera, and sRGB in Photoshop (North America General Purpose 2, sRGB IEC61966-2.1, U.S. Web coated (SWOP) v2, Dot Gain 20%,  Dot Gain 20).
    Thanks for your time!
    George

    Thanks for your quick responce!
    I update Huey and Photoshop and did the calibration again but it didn't fix the problem. Is it possible that the calibrator doesn't work properly?
    My monitor isn't very new, so I don't think it has wide gamut display.
    When you say that "if your display is not truely sRGB" you mean that maybe the profile created Huey isn't correct? I have done many times the calibration and the result is always the same.
    I think that Paintshop uses color management, too, shouldn't it display the same wrong blue color if Huey's profile is wrong?
    How can I check if Huey works properly? Maybe I should try it on a different PC?
    Thanks for your time!!!
    Best regards,
    George
