Suite CS3

I've been attempting to install the Adobe Suite CS3 on my Mac OS X Tiger 10.4.11. It installs fine. Any time I try and run Illustrator, it gives me an error message that says "Missing BPS Pencil Tool" and then it crashes. I have searched multiple forums, done a clean install of the OS, and even tried re-installing the software several times....nothing seems to solve the problem. Can anyone help me?

Installed, licensed, and working Creative Suite CS3 fails. How do I clean Adobe off my system for new installation?

I run Macbook Pro with Mavericks. I have a licensed copy of Creative Suite CS3 installed. It simply stopped working. InDesign, Photoshop, and Illustrator close upon opening. Tried repairing the installation, uninstalling, and reinstalling. Didn't work. The reinstallation did no provide an opportunity to enter the serial number. Tried CS5cleaner. Didn't work. It left the applications installed and deleted the uninstall application. Any help would be greatly appreciated!

The system requirement for CS3 is :
Macintosh
PowerPC® G4 or G5 or multicore Intel processor (Adobe Premiere® Pro, Encore®, and Soundbooth™ require a multicore Intel processor; Adobe OnLocation™ CS3 is a Windows application and may be used with Boot Camp)
Mac OS X v.10.4.9; Java™ Runtime Environment 1.5 required for Adobe Version Cue® CS3 Server
1GB of RAM for DV; 2GB of RAM for HDV and HD; more RAM recommended when running multiple components
24GB of available hard-disk space to install all core components (up to 1GB of additional free space may be required during installation); custom installing select components requires less space
Dedicated 7,200 RPM hard drive for DV and HDV editing; striped disk array storage (RAID 0) for HD; SCSI disk subsystem preferred
Core Audio compatible sound card
1,280x1,024 monitor resolution with 32-bit video card; Adobe recommended graphics card for GPU-accelerated playback
For OpenGL support: Some 3D features in Photoshop CS3 Extended require an OpenGL 1.4 capable graphics card with at least 64MB of VRAM; Adobe After Effects® supported OpenGL 2.0 card (NVIDIA recommended)
DVD-ROM drive
Blu-ray burner required for Blu-ray Disc creation
SuperDrive required for DVD burning
QuickTime 7.1.5 software required to use QuickTime features
Internet or phone connection required for product activation
Broadband Internet connection required for Adobe Stock Photos* and other services
Please compare it with your system specification.

Adobe Creative Suite CS3 Design Premium Student Upgrade?

I bought a student edition of CS3 Design Premium.
After purchasing it I found that I only use the Photoshop part of the Suite.
Am I able to upgrade the Photoshop portion, upgrade the complete Suite or do I have to purchase a new student copy of CS5 Photoshop.
Thanks in advance.

Bob -- I appreciate your bad news
Looks like I'll qualify for a teachers copy of CS5 -- I guess I'll pick one of those up.
I had a quick glance at your article & am sure that both I & my children (students) will find it of use.
Best to you & thanks again.

Subject: Adobe Creative Suite CS3 Design Premium Student Upgrade?
First things first...there are no student upgrades. If you're still eligible you can buy the software at student prices.
In the case of actual upgrades, no, you can't upgrade an individual sutie component.
I have an article on my web site that might be of interest to you: http://www.theindesignguy.com/purchase-advice.shtml

Adobe creative suite cs3 design premium

Hi there,
I've recently bought the new macbook pro (10.9.2) and was wondering if the ADOBE CREATIVE SUITE CS3 DESIGN PREMIUM software would still work on the new laptop? If anybody could help me, it would be most appreciated.
Regards,
Amy

I just had a look at some of the Adobe CS3 products at Roaring Apps (http://roaringapps.com/apps?index=a) and it seems that most of the apps in the CS3 Design Premium Suite will, surprisingly, work with Mavericks.
Not you'll just have to find a way to install it (unless you're restoring from a backup - in which case you'll probably still need your activation code).
Good luck,
Clinton

Adobe Creative Suite CS3 Student Edition... Serial number problems!

Hey I was wondering if anyone could help me!
I purcahsed the Creative Suite CS3 Design Standard, Student Edition, about 8 months ago, and sent off a copy of proof of being in full time education to retrieve my serial number. I haven't recieved one as of yet, and I am a bit lost as to what to do next! As I'm sitting here with software that I cant even use! :(
Would anyone know who to contact about this?
Any help would be REALLY appreciated (as all my design coursework is slowly pilling up haha!)
Thanks,
Karen.

after reloading adobe creative suite cs3 on my mac 10.4.11 acrobat will not open any pdfs it previously opened. help!

hello.   hey, thanks very much for writing back. i got some good info with a search or two. (info about what regedit is and what corresponds to it in OS X -- regedit allows you to edit "preference" keys for individual programs, OSX's equivalent for these keys are the .plists in User & System: Preferences and Application Support)
what i ended up doing was uninstalling Premiere Pro (not the suite, just PPro).   Then i deleted a few preference files:
from User /Preferences/Adobe:
com.adobe.AdobePremierePro.plist
com.Adobe.Premiere Pro.5.0.plist
and from System Preferences:
the file: Adobe Premiere Pro Prefs
and..
/.../Premiere Pro/5.0/...
AMEPrefs.xml     (i noticed that there's also a preference file in Media Encoder's own folder so i didn't sweat this one)
Debug Database.txt
Placeholder Preset.epr
PostEncodeCmds.pref
PresetCache.xml
Trace Database.txt
NOTE:
of course i don't know if deleting any files beyond the 2 .plist files in User Prefs was necessary, but... it seems to have worked.
I then reinstalled Premiere Pro CS5, and fired up an old project and i've got playback of HD and DV files, and snappy editing and rendering, so hopefully i'm good to go.   I'm just going to stick with v5.0.0 because i actually don't remember ever having any trouble with it, and i don't remember v5.0.4 adding anything i was 'missing' or 'needed'
hopefully, this thread will be useful for any future folks that run into trouble - and it's got a solution for both Windows and OS X
happy editing,
peace

Creative suite CS3 lost Licensing and stopped working. support sent me to a site to download CS3 application but got error 404. How do I download?

Adobe support sent me to a Photoshop suite CS3 site but when I clicked the download for mac option I was redirected to a site with an error 404.

Download CS3 products
For anything beyond that you will have to be a lot more specific and provide proper system information or details like what browser you use.

Need replacement disc for Creative Suite CS3 Design Standard

My hard drive on my MacBook Pro is crapping out on me and refuses to let me make a full bootable backup so I can replace the disk. Problem is that I've foolishly managed to lose my physical disks for Creative Suite CS3 Design Standard so I can't do a reinstall. Can anyone on the forum help? Thanks in advance.

If you still have your serial number somewhere, you may call Adobe Tech Support and provide them with the details that you have. If you are really nice to them, they may send you a replacement disc. Good Luck.

Can you install Adobe Creative Suite CS3 on a 2012 Macbook Air running Lion?

Can you install Adobe Creative Suite CS3 on a 2012 Macbook Air running Lion?

Are you talking about adobe creative cloud?
If you are, the Adobe Creative Cloud give you most of Adobe's tools (and all that most would need) to do anything. I will warn you about this though, is that it is a subscription, and you are basically renting it. that means you really do not own it.
About the hard disk space, all Adobe apps seem to take up at least a GB (and this does not matter if you get the master collection or the Creative Cloud). so ether way, it will take some space.
Also, if you want to try-before-you-buy, you can go to creative.adobe.com, and get a free account and try out all of he adobe apps available for creative cloud. The best part of it, your apps will be updated to CS7 (if or when it comes out) instead of buying the apps again in your subscriptions. if you need even more information, you can go to adobe's site to find out more (www.adobe.com)

Adobe Creative Suite CS3 - Adobe Indesign CS3 Debug: Installation on the same PC?

Hi
Is it possible to install Adobe Creative Suite CS3 and Adobe Indesign CS3 Debug on the same PC?
If yes how can I do that?
I have tried it but if I install the debug version there is a message that I can't install it because there is a conflict.
Thanks

Hi All,
I'm hoping someone can help me :S
I have designed a card measuring 210mm x 74mm. The printer has asked me to impose as head to head, 5mm double trims and bleed. I have no idea how to do this and seem to be wasting my time tring to google it. Trouble is I am trying to impose 4 pdf's into the 1 indesign file and when i export it as a pdf i can't see any trim mark/crop marks surrounding the edges of any of the 2 files (apart from the corners of the pages). I've probably just confused the hell out of you now but if you can help me I would really appreciate it. If I need to clarify anything please let me know.
Thanks in advance!!

Creative Suite CS3 - Windows 8 Pro

Dear all,
I bought a new laptop for higher performance but it is with Windows 8 Pro.
Do you know if Creative Suite CS3 is compatible with Windows 8 Pro? If not how many costs the upgrade? I weekly use Photoshop almost, the other ones less than monthly.
Thank you for your support,
Kind regards,
Sandra

yes, it's compatible though you may need to install using compatibility mode.

Creative Suite CS3 installation errors

Hello,
I have installed my copy of Creative Suite CS3 several times on my PC. However, recently my PC was hit with a virus. I reinstalled Windows XP/SP2. When I now try to install Creative Suite, I get errors every time.
I've tried to install it now five times. The message that I'm getting is similiar to "component installation failed". (I'm recalling the message from memory.) I'm trying to put Photoshop, Illustrator, Flash, Fireworks and Dreamweaver on my machine, but this error appears with every application I attempt to install.
I'm not aware of any error log that Adobe is keeping with the installation process.
Does anyone have any suggestions? thanks.

Adobe customer support has kindly provided me this KB article:
http://kb.adobe.com/selfservice/viewContent.do?externalId=kb401401&sliceId=2
I'm going to go through these steps this weekend.

Creative Suite CS3 and InDesign CS4 Issues

Hi,
I'm hoping this is the right place to post. I installed parts of Creative Suite CS3 on my system (just the basics, PS, ID, Illustrator, etc.).
Later on I just got Photoshop CS4 and Installed that.
Now, months later, I want to instally the rest of CS 3 on my system, yet half way through Disk 1, it ejects the disk and asks me to install the InDesign CS4 disk. I don't have InDesign CS4! I did install the trial version but then uninstalled it.
Any ideas?
Thanks!

A,
Uninstall anything CS4 (use Adobe's uninstaller; do not just drag to trash). Install your CS3 components; then install Photoshop CS4 again. It would seem there is either some dependence upon certain components shared by both versions; or maybe it's the way some data is transfered behind the scenes from one version to the other.
Remember to repair permissions and run DiskWarrior to fix any permissions, disk or directory issues that sometimes crop up.
On a slightly different note, on my well-maintained system, I had the Master Collection CS3 on my Mac; then installed the Master Collection CS4. When I recently decided to uninstall most of CS3 (per instructions), I found that for a few CS4 apps, I had to enter my password the first time I launched them. But Photoshop would tell me some scripts were missing, and the solution was to uninstall Photoshop CS4 and reinstall it.
Go figure!
Neil
