Registration PopUp Window Won't Go Away

I got no help with this calling support, and no help doing the 'Chat Live', so hopefully there's ppl here who might be able to help.
I have Photoshop CS2 v9 for Windows.  It used to be on a Windows XP computer, but that computer died a few months ago.  I now have a new computer with Windows 7 Ultimate, 64 bit.
I installed my Photoshop CS2 v9 on the new computer, and the registration window popped up.  I click 'don't register' because I had already registered it on my old computer.  But every time I opened PS, the Registration window opened.  I finally just decided I would go ahead and go through the registration process again just to get rid of the window.
Now, every time I open PS, I am still getting the 'Register' window.  I chatted with an online support person who referred me to tech support.  I called tech support and they were no help either.  Tech support said it's not an activate or re-activate situation because the software works fine.
The online chat guy said there was a file somewhere on the computer I could open in a text editor and change regisration to "never" and it would stop.  But my computer has no such file.
Is there any way to make the window quit opening?  The software is registered and needs no further activation, so what is the problem?
Thanks.

Hi Noel,
Thanks for the reply.
That did the trick - it's no longer popping up, thanks!
Now I just have to solve the "escape key disabled" issue, that I've been researching on the Adobe Forums.
(when PhotoShop CS2 is running, the escape key is disabled on all other programs.  example: open notepad, choose "file / open" and then if you decide "I'm not going to need notepad after all" you can't hit escape to close the open file dialog - you have to click to close it)
http://forums.adobe.com/thread/372523  - but that's another topic
Regarding this topic, I appreciate the quick response that you have provided - it's been very useful.

  • The iTunes Popup Screen Won't Go Away On My iPod. Help :c

    There's an usb and the iTunes logo on my iPod and it won't go away. I've tried turning it off and back on but it still does it. Also, I've tried pluging it into my laptop and taking it out, as well as, "ejecting" manually on my iTunes window on my laptop, but nothing seems to work. Please Help Me Out. /:
    I don't want to restore it...

    The screen is telling you to restore the iPod via iTunes. You have to do that.

  • Popup window won't appear, even after allowing website in IE 10's popup blocker

    I have tried desperately to download iTunes onto my Win7 computer, but even in Google Chrome 35 & IE 10, the popup window refuses to appear, & therefore I cannot download iTunes. What else is causing this? Is there a direct download link that I can email to myself to download iTunes? My iPhone 4s is almost full, & I need to take off some files to allow more room.

    I'm using Chrome 35 (latest build):
    Go to http://www.apple.com/itunes
    Click on the green Download button (top right).
    On the next screen, click the Download Now button
    The installer should download immediately - no pop-up window - by default it'll be saved in C:\Downloads.

  • Popup Error - Won't Go Away

    Recurring pop-up window on boot:
    Popup Error
    Failed to listen for incoming Popup jobs. You will not be able to use Popup printing for the duration of this session. Please report this incident to a system administrator.
    How do I make this go away? I just upgraded my MacBook from Tiger to Leopard, everything else seems to work fine except for this strange error message. I haven't figured out what Popup printing is, don't really care. Just want this to go away.
    Thanks...

    I am having the same issue. Popup printing, I believe, involves printing over a network. For example, at school, I can print from my Mac to any access printer on the school's network through popup printing. It's a great feature, but isn't working because I'm getting this message error as well. I am making a list of all the problems I've had with Leopard since installing. I should be studying but instead I'm having to fix my Mac. Never thought I'd say that. Please, if anyone can help, I need my printer back.

  • Registration Unsuccessful error won't go away

    Registration Unsuccessful error message appears every time I open Adobe Acrobat 8 Standard. I recently loaded it onto new computer running Windows 8.1 and successfully registered it. I spoke to tech support and they confirm that it is registered on my new computer. I have tried all the options: submit again, register later and never register but it still comes up every time. Tech support did not know how to stop the message from appearing and suggested I ask the community. I tried the registry fix someone posted for Windows 7 but the path was not the same. I found the Adobe Viewer and changed it as recommended but it didn't work.  Please don't recommend I purchase a newer copy of Acrobat - no money left after getting the new computer and A8 meets all my needs. Does anyone have any ideas?

    Hi Jodiwer,
    ThankYou for posting on the forums, Adobe Acrobat 8 is not compatible with windows 7 and above.
    Thanks,

  • The popup window won't open at a normal size. Any ideas on how to keep the popup window a normal size when opening?

    I recently did the latest update for my MacBook Air and when I use a specific website it won't open the popup blocker at a normal size. Any ideas on how to keep the popup blocker at the size that I select?

    This is a user to user forum and Adobe Staff does drop by.
    First thing to try is Reset the Type Tool by right-clicking on its' icon in the Options bar.
    If you still have problems, it could be related to fonts. Here is a step by step troubleshooting help doc for that.

  • POP UP WINDOW won't go away!

    Using Internet Explorer.  Small window pops up in the middle of the screen and it says Adobe Flash Player Setting
    cc1.midasplayer.com is requesting permission to store information on your computer. 
    Requested up to 10 kb
    Currently used 8kb
    Allow         Deny
    I click deny as I do not know what this is.  Sometimes the window will close but most of the time it does not.  Since it won't cloce I can no longer use the web page that I was originally on.  I close out and start all over.  The same thing happens.  What is this and how can I get rid of it????  Thank you

    Applications that run in Adobe Flash Player may want to store some information on your computer, but the amount they can store is limited to 100 kilobytes unless you agree to allocate additional space. Local storage settings let you specify how much disk space, if any, applications from a particular website can use to store information on your computer. Note that it is the person or company that has created the application you are using that is requesting such access, not Adobe (unless Adobe has created the application that wants to save the information). In the dialog box shown above, [website] represents the name of the person or company requesting access. It is the responsibility of the person or company requesting access to make it clear to you why they want access and how they plan to use the information they save. You should be aware of the privacy policy of anyone who is requesting access to your computer. For example, see Adobe's privacy policy. Contact the website requesting access for information on their privacy policy.
    It's important to understand that even though this settings panel is part of Flash Player, the information will be used by an application created by a third party. Adobe assumes no responsibility for third-party privacy policies, actions of third-party companies in storing information on your computer, or such companies' use of such data or information.
    What kind of data can an application that runs in Flash Player store on my computer?
    The kind of information stored depends on the application. Information can be anything from your user name to your current score in an interactive game to a list of stocks in your portfolio. The application should make it clear what kind of information it wants to store.
    Who has access to the information?
    This information may be accessed by an application that is currently running in Flash Player or by another application that runs in Flash Player on the same website. Adobe does not have access to this information (unless Adobe has created the application that wants to save the information).
    As discussed in What are local storage settings? above, it is the responsibility of the website requesting access to make it clear to you why they want access and how they plan to use the information. For example, will it be available only to you, or will it be posted in a public place? Who will have access to it in the future? Will it be deleted after a certain period of time? The privacy policy of anyone who is requesting access should address these sorts of issues.
    I've already set privacy and disk space options in my browser. How do these settings interact with my Flash Player settings?
    You may be aware that some websites work together with your browser to store small amounts of data, called cookies, on your computer for their own use in the future. For example, when you go to a website regularly, it may welcome you by name; your name is probably stored in a cookie, and you can use browser options to determine whether you want cookies or not. You may also have specified in your browser that pages you visit can take up only a certain amount of disk space.
    When SWF or FLV content is being played, the settings you select for Flash Player are used in place of options you may have set in your browser. That is, even if you have specified in your browser settings that you do not want cookies placed on your computer, you may be asked if an application that runs in Flash Player can store information. This happens because the information stored by Flash Player is not the same as a cookie; it is used only by the application that runs in Flash Player, and has no relation to any other Internet privacy or security settings you may have set in your browser.
    Similarly, the amount of disk space you let the  application that runs in Flash Player use has no relation to the amount of disk space you have allotted for stored pages in your browser. That is, when SWF or FLV content is being played, the amount of disk space you allow here is in addition to any space your browser is using for stored pages.
    No matter how you may have configured your browser, you still have the option to allow or deny an application that runs in Flash Player permission to store the information, and to specify how much disk space the stored information can occupy, as discussed in the rest of this document.
    What are my local storage options?
    If you don't want to let applications from this website save any information on your computer, and you don't want to be asked again, select Never. Note that applications from other websites may later ask to store information on your computer. If you don't want applications from any website that you haven't yet visited to store information on your computer, and you don't want to be asked again, use the Global Storage Settings panel.
    If you want to let applications from this website save information on your computer, but you want to decide on a case-by-case basis for each application, move the slider to the far left (None). Each time an application from this website wants to save information on your computer, you will see a question asking for more disk space.
    If you want to let applications from this website save as much information on your computer as they need to, move the slider to the far right (Unlimited).
    If you want to let applications from this website save information on your computer, but want to limit the amount of disk space they can use, move the slider to select 10 KB, 100 KB, 1 MB, or 10 MB. If an application needs more space than you have allotted, you will see a question asking for more disk space while the application is running.
    If an application from this website has already saved some information on your computer and you select a value that is lower than the amount of information already stored, Flash Player informs you that any information that has already been saved will be deleted.
    If you don't want existing information to be deleted, click Cancel to return to the Local Storage Settings panel, and then select a higher value. Otherwise, click OK to delete the information and return to the application.
    How can I change my local storage settings?
    You may want to change your local storage settings if, for example, you want to allot more space for information from this website. To display the Local Storage Settings panel:
    Right-click (Windows) or Control-click (Macintosh) the application image while it is running.
    From the context menu, select Settings, and then click the Local Storage tab.

  • Conflict Resolver Pop-up Window Won't Go Away

    Since recent update of Snow Leopard, I have been unable to resolve between 8 and 10 (the count changes) calendar conflicts between iCal and Entourage 2008. The notifications are apparently generated by MobileMe though I do not subscribe to the service.
    Entourage groups my sync services as calendar/Mobile Me and contacts/Mobile Me and there does not appear to be an obvious way to unlink the two. Nor can I access any preferences in MobileMe without ostensibly signing up for an account. And I am stuck with pushing data from Entourage to iCal and address book so I can sync my iPhone.
    No matter how many times I go through the exercise of "resolving conflicts and re-syncing" via the pop-up, the window reappears on top of any program in current use. Even "x-ing" out the window is only a max 5 min fix before the window reappears. I was using the same settings in Entourage prior to the new OS 10 update so I think this is just a VERY annoying bug. Advice please? Apple, please fix asap!!

    I am having the exact same problem. I just, finally, installed SL today, and updated everything, including the 800+ mg security update to SL. I use Entourage and an iPhone. Prior to this installation I had no trouble syncing my Entourage cal with my iPhone cal (via iCal, of course, but I never use it separately). I got a Sync Conflict box with about 12 errors. There had been some odd changes in the times of the events, but as they had all occurred in the past I didn't care that much. I went through choosing the best version (sometimes between just Entourage and iCal, sometimes with the iPhone tossed in the mix), thinking it was done. But I've been repeatedly asked to review the same events more than four times in the past half an hour. It would appear that this is a bug of some kind. As I'm new to SL I don't know if it is from the update or the original disk, but I'd like it to go away. Please help.

  • ITunes song pop-up window won't go away.

    When I click a song and play it on iTunes 8, a gray window pops up that tells the song name, artist, album, duration, and rating (plus a square where the album artwork would be).
    For the past few days, it has popped up without going away like it usually does. I can choose another song (which makes the window just name the new song), but it doesn't go away entirely and just "sits" there.
    The only way I've been able to get rid of it is to restart the computer. Is there an easier way? Thanks!

    The gray window you describe doesn't sound like something native to iTunes but one of the features from Synergy. Are you using Synergy? It is a menubar controller and one of the features is a floating gray box that appears at the beginning of a song that contains the information you identify and then fades away until the next song.

  • Safari popups that won't go away

    I think that I accidentally clicked something I shouldn't have and now I had all these popups going on and I keep "okay"-ing them but they just keep popping up again and I don't know what to do. I've already restarted my computer, but every time I open the Safari app the webpages and the popup warning things keep coming back no matter how many times I try to click out of them. And the popups have number on them for me to call, but I don't think they're very reliable because they are giving two different numbers so I don't know which one would be legit enough for me to try I don't want to mess up any more than I already have

    1. Click here and follow the instructions, or if there’s a type of adware not covered by them on the computer, these ones. If you're willing to use a tool to remove it(you don't need to, but may find it easier), you can instead run Adware Medic; this link is a direct download.
    2. None of those numbers are legitimate. If you can’t simply dismiss those popups, choose Force Quit from the Apple menu, close Safari, and then launch it with the Shift key held down; if that doesn't work, temporarily disconnect the computer from the Internet.

  • BT Parental Controls window won't go away

    Hi there,
    I use BT Internet and am on wifi. Today I switched on my PC and every time I open a webpage in Google Chrome or Internet Explorer, I get a little window from BTInternet asking me if I want to activate Parental Controls. I click "No" and it takes me to a page, saying "You have chosen not to enable parental controls." All fine and dandy. So I click "Close" on that page and it tries to do something, then just times out. I usually use Chrome but I tried it on Internet Explorer as well, where it closes instead of timing out. 
    HOWEVER
    It doesn't seem to be registering that I DON'T want to use parental controls because the message appears on every online shopping website I try to visit, and because it's there, I can't browse any of the pages.
    The other PC connected to the router via ethernet is not having this problem. 
    I've tried clearing cache and cookies and using a different browser (Internet Explorer) but this doesn't work.
    Can anyone please help me?
    This is what I'm seeing.

    Hi laalaa,
    Welcome to the forum and thanks for posting!
    Sorry for the problems you're having.  There was an issue with parental controls but everything should be sorted now.  Can you post back to let me know please?  If you're still having problems I'll give you a hand from here if needs be.
    All the best,
