Running Both PSE 7 and Photoshop CS4 Trial

Hi, I am new to this forum and would like to ask if it is possible to run both PSE 7 and PS CS4 on the same computer.
I am currently a PS Elements 7 user, and would like try the Photoshop CS 4 trial version, and possibly buy it if I decide that the added features will useful to me.
But I do not want to have to uninstall PSE 7 for this trial period.
Also if I decide to buy PS CS4 then would I be able to keep PSE7 installed also, in case for any reason I want to run it ( eg a friend might ask me a question about PSE7, then I can go and look at that issue on PSE7 on my own computer).
Also, can I run both these programs simultaneously, or is it just one at a time that is possible? That would not be a major problem as long as I could have both installed at the same time.
Any advice on the grounds rules for this, or any caveats etc would be much appreciated, thanks.

Whoa! You can't have 2 or 3 versions of the same app open & running on Windows? I find that limiting.
and Elements isn't even the same app as Photoshop.
You can run both on a Mac.
I never needed to have 2 or 3 versions of the same app open & running but I understand it's not possible on Windows.
I never owned Elements – I was just being cautious.

  • I'm running Lightroom 2.7 and Photoshop CS4 and can't open or import NEF files from a Nikon D600

    Need help understanding why the NEF files created by my D700 work fine in both Lightroom 2.7 and Photoshop CS4, but the same file format created by a Nikon D600 keep getting a unkown error when I try to import or open them.

    You can either upgrade Lightroom or use Adobe's Free DNG Converter to make a backwards-compatible file for LR 2.x to read. New camera support is only effected on current versions of LR and Adobe Camera Raw and your version(s) do not support the D600.

  • I am using both PSE 13 and Lightroom 5.  When I use Lightroom as an external editor and save the photo, it shows up in PSE13 as an edited file but does not look any different.  Why doesn't it appear edited?

    I am using both PSE 13 and Lightroom 5.  When I use Lightroom as an external editor and save the photo, it shows up in PSE13 as an edited file but does not look any different.  Why doesn't it appear edited?

    People who have Photoshop, but don't have Lightroom, need ACR so that they can use Raw files. Without ACR they could do nothing with those (they may also like having ACR so that they can work on other kinds of image using the same kinds of adjustments and techniques, as are used with Raw files).
    People who have Lightroom, can get access to Raw files regardless whether ACR is present or not. They can use Lightroom on other kinds of image also, using the same methods. LR can pass images directly into Photoshop without passing via ACR (or else does so transparently, which amounts to substantially the same thing).
    ACR does not, strictly speaking, even need to be installed for this external editing to happen. In fact, not even PS needs to be - since a different image editor can be used instead, while still retaining the Adobe Raw conversion etc.
    Lightroom "subcontracts out" specialised external tasks, in this workflow, but is still your "main contractor": the image is otherwise located, viewed, managed, adjusted/presented and output entirely using LR.
    So IMO we can divide image processing into:
    operations that involve pixels and layers and layer masks and adjustment layers etc (of the kind done inside Photoshop)
    operations that involve parametric edits (of the kind done in ACR where you are not using a Lightroom based workflow; otherwise, done inside Lightroom)
    When PS is called in, that's because those tasks are impossible or unsuitable to do in Lightroom. But those tasks can't be done in ACR either - by definition, since LR and ACR have exactly the same image processing "feature set".
    Lightroom is irrelevant to the Bridge + ACR + PS workflow. This workflow requires both your PS and your ACR to be current enough, to support your Raw format etc.
    ACR and Bridge are irrelevant to the LR + (image editor) workflow. It is in this case, only LR which needs to be current enough to support your Raw format etc.

  • Deactivating a photoshop cs4 trial license

    Does anyone know how to deactivate a photoshop cs4 trial license?
    Basically i need to deactivate this license so i can use the creative suite 4 i have just bought.
    So every time i try and open the photoshop application, a window opens saying 'license expired'.
    Plus there is no 'help' option at the top of the screen in order for me to deactivate the license, the only option
    reads 'photoshop' containing 'hide this' or 'hide all'.
    The adobe support team have been useless in trying to help me.
    I would be very grateful if someone knew of how to go about deactivating this license.
    Regards.
    Tom Haywood

    Hi again, i have followed your advice but the same thing is happening again. All of the other programs on the
    suite are working apart from photoshop. which keeps saying the license has expired.
    Do you have any other suggestions please?
    Thanks.

  • Photoshop CS4 Trial Version?

    Hello everyone, for the past hour or so I've been trying to install Photoshop CS4 (trial). Now, I've gone through the installation successfully, but when it was done it said I would need to restart and reinstall to add the missing components. It came back up as this  and if I check Adobe Photoshop CS4, everything gets selected. Now, I've already installed this, and have no more room to install it again. But even with nothing checked, it still says the total size is 6.9 MB. So I tried with nothing selected, and it went successfully, but when I went to open Photoshop, it said I needed to reinstall and add missing components. I've tried restarting, and I've tried reinstalling (the same as above).
    Exactly what comes up when I try to open Photoshop is: "Some of the application components are missing from the Application directory, Please reinstall the application."
    Can someone please help me? Thanks in advance!

  • Can't extract the Photoshop CS4 trial version archive

    Hello,
    i downloaded the Photoshop CS4 trial version with the help of the Akamai download manager and now i have some trouble to extract the archive. I tried it with the Adobe extractor, with 7-Zip and Win-Rar, but i always get the message that some files (about ~500 files) are corrupted.
    I downloaded the trial version (archive size 857MB) about 4 or 5 times from the Adobe website, but i always have the same problem. I can't extract the archive properly. Does somebody have a solution for my problem? Thanks in advance!

    The size I'm seeing for the English/Windows version of the PS CS4 Ext Tryout .7z is:  853,860,607 / 814.3MB which took 20-25 min to download on a 500-1000KB/sec connection at work.
    Using Test in WinRAR 3.80 trial says everything is ok.
    Some questions that suggest things to try:
    Are you on a wired internet connection all the way to your computer?
    Are you extracting from your local C: drive?
    Are you deleting what is downloaded each time before retrying?
    Have you turned off your virus scanner before downloading and/or when trying to extract the files?

  • Photoshop CS4 Trial Download?

    Can i still download the photoshop cs4 trial version?

    Since you can no longer buy it, that would be slightly pointless, assuming you really are a new user. Cs5.5 is your only option then. If you already have a serial and only need to download the installer, try this.

    Ned, thanks for responding. Internet access is not the problem, I will have a tower computer connected to Comcast.
    Isolating the laptop  from the internet is the issue.

  • Keywording problem in Lightroom 2.4 and Photoshop CS4

    I'm experiencing a problem with keywording in Lightroom 2.4 and Photoshop CS4. When i export a batch of photos that were keyworded in LR to the desk top then open a photo in PS I  find only one keyword when I look through the "file info" menu item.  Any ideas on how I might resolve this problem or what I may be doing wrong.
    Many thanks in advance.

    Make sure that you have the keywords setup so that they will export. You can check by right clicking on a keyword in the Keyword List panel and choosing Edit Keyword Tag. The dialog shown below should open and should see a checkmark against Include on Export and Export Containing Keywords. It's fairly easy to get this wrong when working with hierarchical keywords.
    Also, you can configure the Keywording panel so that it shows which keywords will be assigned when image is exported.

    It would harm the PC industry because you wouldn't have to buy one since the Mac can do both. But with only a 128 GB SSD in your rMBP, you may have trouble fitting both on it.

    Hi. I am downloading the trail versions of both Lightroom 5 and Photoshop cc. When I purchase will I be given the option to have the 'Photography' package?

    Yes, of course. They are separate things - while technically identical, there are simply different licensing models, but this is not in any way apparent in the demo versions.
