Trials cs4

Trials are gone for the moment since cs5 has arrived. But I was planning to download the cs4 trial for design premium. Is there perhaps a 'previous versions' section on adobe.com where I can download the cs4 trials?

HI
I'm using the trial and love a lot of the added features but
like others the
economic climate means a reduction of work and the cost here
in the Uk is
prohibative.
Adobe should perhaps remember loyalty and reduce the cost for
exisitng users
especially in the UK
cheers

    But when I open a photo in CS4, is takes a LOONG time when I use any tool. Ìt`s not possible to work with is when it is so slow.

  • Trial CS4 Install Help

    Hi there,
    I'm trying to install the trial version of Fireworks CS4 on my laptop.
    I keep on getting the error message "Please insert CD".  I've Googled this problem, and one sugestion was to delete the "<Media></Media>" tags in the Setup.xml file.  Tried that, but still no luck.  Tried uninstalling the Flash player plugins as well, but still nothing.  Not sure what to do about this one.
    Laptop specifications - Windows 7, 4GB Ram, 500GB hard drive space, brand new!
    Thanks
    Douglas

    Problem solved.  My laptop came with Adobe Reader pre-installed.  I uninstalled that and bingo, it worked.  Why do I always end up answering my own questions?!

    What do you mean you downloaded the trial but cant find it?  Thats a matter of where your download program put it.
    Regarding errors; what platform are you installing on?  HW & OS

  • Uninstalling adobe photoshop trial CS4 crashes explorer (versionCue.dll)

    Running XP pro, 4gb ram, Radeon HD 4800, Intel Pentium E8400. None of that is relevant in the least but I figured someone would ask if I didn't put it up.
    Anyway: I installed the photoshop CS4 30 day trial (photoshop and bridge only). Then I uninstalled it. After a restart (I believe), every time I perform certain actions (bring up context menu, cut/copy files...) in window explorer, it will crash, saying the specified module could not be found: C:\Program Files\Common Files\Adobe\Adobe Version cue CS4\Client\4.0.0\VersionCue.dll .
    Reinstalling the trial fixes the issue.
    Uninstalling it again causes the issue to resurface.
    I want all adobe software off my computer please! I've learned my lesson! How do I fix explorer? my "keep a crappy expired trial on perpetuity" stratagem is starting to grate.
    Similar problems were elsewhere when I searched, but the solution was always "doing X and Y will put cs4 back into you context menu, don't worry." This is not adequate for me. Ideally, the solution to this problem would eliminate all instances of the word Adobe from anywhere on my computer except for my internet history of this page.
    Thanks in advance,
    -Ben

    I went into the folder and discovered only the file VersionCue.dll1. As using and type of dragging and right-clicking all crash explorer, I then copied this file into VersionCue.dll using cmd.exe
    So now I
    -Lost the software (good)
    -Stabalized Explorer (good)
    -Restored the drive cs4 options to explorer's context menu (bad).
    I really don't want to have to reinstall windows just because I made the mistake of installing adobe software on it. Can anyone help me clean this menu up?
    Thanks,
    -Ben

  • Bridge in trial CS4 doesn't read my Canon G10 .CR2 files

    One of my motivations for upgrading to CS4 is to use my canon G10 files through bridge.
    I've transferred the files from the camera to my computer. I've also run them through the latest DNG converter to use with CS3 - that worked fine.
    Now bridge in the CS4 trial lists the .CR2 files, but with no metadata or thumbnail. If I double click on the file, CS4 says "Could not complete your request because it is not the right kind of document." The .DNG versions load without any problem.
    Can someone tell me what I'm doing wrong?
    Thanks,
    Arthur

    Thanks Don.
    I had just come to that conclusion and tried to edit my post but it didn't seem to work.
    My question now is, if I update to CR5.2, will that mess up CS3 (in case, for example, I don't end up keeping CS4)?

  • Trial CS4; also cache management

    I am considering the trial of CS4, but concerned because it seems from what I've read on forums that installing the retail version after a trial sometimes causes problems. Are there preventive measures I can take or would it be best to try it on a cloned drive?
    Also is the retail version updated and better than the trial? I noticed that last November Ramón found Bridge cache management still weak in CS4. Has that been fixed? Is it best to choose to save the cache files to the folders, or keep them in one place?
    Thanks for advice. I'm not rolling in money (few of us are, of course) and really don't want to upgrade unless the new version is a LOT more stable. I don't need the new features even though they sound nice.
    (Ramón , I did apply the update to Bridge CS3 as you advise. It opened ok but with a message that I needed to update versionque. Since I never use the feature i just disabled in in my preferences. Hope that won't cause problems.)

    Seems like I'm always 3 days late checking my emails :-(
    I used to save in PSD, but became concerned at one point because TIFFs seem more standard. I hadn't noticed any delay in opening them, but it's been awhile.
    I'm with you on the copies, only more so. Paranoid is the word. Three copies on three internal hard drives and two more on external drives. I need to update my DVDs but want to wait until I'm through with another marathon scanning task. So I just took one of my hard drives with photos updated (well boxed) and a huge bag of DVDs with all the other files, to my daughters house.
    I went through a box of DVDs from the past three years and cataloged them. A lot of repetition, of course. One hates to discard them though, because what if the newest ones turn up with errors? It would be a nightmare putting those old ones back on the drive because I went to a different naming system, using dates, and renamed most of my photos. not to mention all the work this year keywording. I haven't found a good duplicate finder for the Mac. File Buddy misses a lot of dups with different names and the keywords would actually save the file contents anyhow.
    Meantime I'm trying to decide whether to invest in a new scanner. Mine is still good (the Epson 4870 Photo) but everyone that I've had seems to eventually collect dust and it affects the scans.
    So I have to decide if I want to keep using this one and do more work cleaning up the dust in Photoshop, or buy an inexpensive one (maybe the V500) to hopefully finally finish the backlog of years of photos. The specs on the V500 sound as good as my 4870, but I don't know about the optical stuff.
    Wow, I'm sorry this got a bit wordy! I don't know anyone around here who works with Photoshop so I can get carried away with electronic chatter

  • Do I need to uninstall CS3 for Camera Raw to work on a trial CS4

    I have CS4 on trial and have downloaded camera raw plug - i am not able to open my raw files do I need to uninstall CS3 for this to work?

    You are looking at the WRONG Library, Catherine.  What you describe is the Library in your user folder (home folder) and you don't want that.
    You want the Library at the ROOT level of your hard disk, not your user Library.
    This image shows ACR 4.x installed for CS3:
    Click on thumbnail for full-size image.  Command-Click on thumbnail for faster opening in a new browser tab.
    And here's the Path for ACR 5.2 in CS4, which is the same for ACR 5.3:
    Catherine Cotton 1 wrote:
    - is there an easier way to install this -
    No.
    If you have CS3 only and your camera is not supported by ACR 4.6, then you also need to download the free, stand-alone Adobe DNG Converter 5.3 which does not need any version of Photoshop to run.  You need to launch it, convert your raw files to DNGs, then open the DNGs in Camera Raw 4.6 hosted by CS3.
    Here's a list of which version of Camera Raw supports which camera models:
    http://kb.adobe.com/selfservice/viewContent.do?externalId=kb407111&sliceId=2
    You can skip the DNG Converter step if you upgrade to Photoshop 11.0.1 ("CS4") and update to ACR 5.3, which is a far more powerful and versatile version of Camera Raw.

  • Can't find photos, have a 30 day trial  CS4 want pics imported

    Any help would be appreciated. Need to get the doctored pics that I did in Photoshop CS4...trial version, imported into iPhoto. HELP! Got this iMac 3 weeks ago and it's all new. Use a PC at work.

    Using Photoshop (or Photoshop Elements) as Your Editor of Choice in iPhoto.
    1 - select Photoshop as your editor of choice in iPhoto's General Preference Section's under the "Edit photo:" menu.
    2 - double click on the thumbnail in iPhoto to open it in Photoshop. When you're finished editing click on the Save button. If you immediately get the JPEG Options window make your selection (Baseline standard seems to be the most compatible jpeg format) and click on the OK button. Your done.
    3 - however, if you get the navigation window that indicates that PS wants to save it as a PS formatted file. You'll need to either select JPEG from the menu and save (top image) or click on the desktop in the Navigation window (bottom image) and save it to the desktop for importing as a new photo.
    This method will let iPhoto know that the photo has been editied and will update the thumbnail file to reflect the edit..
    NOTE: With Photoshop Elements 6 the Saving File preferences should be configured: "On First Save: Save Over Current File". Also I suggest the Maximize PSD File Compatabilty be set to Always.
    If you want to use both iPhoto's editing mode and PS without having to go back and forth to the Preference pane, once you've selected PS as your editor of choice, reset the Preferences back to "Open in main window". That will let you either edit in iPhoto (double click on the thumbnail) or in PS (Control-click on the thumbnail and seledt "Edit in external editor" in the Contextual menu). This way you get the best of both worlds
    2 - double click on the thumbnail in iPhoto to open it in Photoshop. When you're finished editing click on the Save button. If you immediately get the JPEG Options window make your selection (Baseline standard seems to be the most compatible jpeg format) and click on the OK button. Your done.
    3 - however, if you get the navigation window that indicates that PS wants to save it as a PS formatted file.

  • Attempting to install trial CS4 Creative Suites

    Attempting to download trial version encountered this message: An applet from “dim.tools.akamai.com” is requesting unrestricted access to your computer.
    The digital signature from “Akamai Technologies, Inc.” has been verfied
    Concerned stopped download. Next day tried again and decided to accept. Computer acted wild and had to force quit Foxfire. Any suggestions?

    Thank you for replying. On the second try, I accepted and messages started coming up concerning my acceptance. I attempted to keep "accepting", when the message started flashing and then froze Foxfire. It took several attempts to quit Foxfire. I don't remember the specific messages. I haven't attempted it again and really need to get this trial copy downloaded.

  • Flash Web Gallery edited in DreamWeaver CS3 or CS4

    I use Lightroom 2.6 to create Flash Galleries. I'd like to add a link to the template in Dreamweaver CS3 or Trial CS4. However, the following message keeps appearing:
    Sorry, this photo gallery requires that scripting be enabled on your web browser and that the Adobe Flash Player be installed. Down
    load the Adobe Flash Player
    I have checked to verify the Flash Player is installed and working properly. I have doubled check to make sure scripts are allowed in my browser...Mozilla. I also installed, uninstalled and installed Flash Player several times.
    The index page is html so what am I missing?
    Grace_h

    Hi
    It's probably due to the way you have 'linked' to your images in lightroom not being relative to the images address in your dreamweaver page.
    Place your images in a folder within your dreamweaver site and create your lightroom page in the same folder.

  • Remove Flash CS4 Files

    I am trying to reinstall Flash in Creative Suite 3 after trialing CS4.  (CS3 Flash had some DLL issues and had to be uninstalled since it wasn't working)  I have uninstalled CS4 but when I go to install CS3 I get this error "Please insert Adobe Fireworkd CS4  to continue installation"  Now, I did trial fireworks but removed it a while ago, so it appears that there are some remnant files.  I ran a CS4 cleaner script from Adobe but it shows that there are no CS4 files that need to be cleaned.  Adobe is NO help on this.  Any suggestions?
    THANKS!

    Hi mfmsillie
    What operating system are you running windows XP/Vista?
    Are there any other Adobe CS3/4 Applications showing in Add/Remove Programs?
    You might have to remove these as the common files entries in C:/Program Files might have some left over dll files that are conflicting with the install of CS3.
    You could try the windows cleanup utility which can remove any left over files for applications also

  • Need to uninstall-reinstall CS4

    I have CS4 Design Premium on a Vista Biz 32 bit
    system. It's not an upgrade but a new purchase. The only trial CS4 product I had
    was DW which was removed long before installing CS4. The original install seemed
    fine...no known issues. Been successfully using PS, InD, DW & Illustrator.
    Just learned that my Flash install doesn't work...also my Distiller.
    I have a ticket with Adobe. They said I had too
    many fonts installed which seems like a crock. But I managed to get down to 230
    fonts and tried a new install of Flash from Safe Mode. Still no joy. I didn't
    know at the time that Distiller was also broken. I'm not sure if trying the
    CS4Clean Script is appropriate or not. I haven't wanted to uninstall my working
    stuff as I'm WORKING!
    But I have an open day on Saturday. So what would
    be the most effective approach to try to get my entire suite running? I don't
    want to loose what I already have working. Should I do a complete uninstall, run
    the clean up, reboot and then try a complete new reinstall? Are the fonts an
    issue? Should I get them all off again? I know nothing else can be open
    including AV. Anything else I need to know to make this work? I do not want to
    spend my entire weekend on this.
    Thanks,
    Sheila

    I feel like I'm talking to myself here...but I'll keep posting on the off
    chance SOMEONE will help me?!!!
    Did you know Adobe Tech is closed on the weekends? I sure didn't. That was a
    big disappoinment. So I went it alone today and got absolutely nowhere...
    Here's what I just posted to them...
    I got down to 220 fonts despite everyone on the message board saying they
    have 1000+. I completely removed CS4 including using Windows Install Clean
    up and CS4 Clean also. I rebooted, had everything closed and off (AV,
    firewall, no internet connection)...reinstalled. Experienced the following
    issues:
    1) when installing it says I need a Vista service pack but I'm up to date
    2) every time I right click on anything it initialized Acrobat Installer
    again. This was my previous ticket which you guys never solved. But I solved
    it using Windows Install Clean Up. So I'll do that again this time.
    3) When I tried to uninstall Adobe Media Player I got the attached error.
    4) When I first rebooted after install I got a error that there was already
    a copy of Distiller running.
    5) I STILL cannot access Flash (all other programs appear at this time to be
    functional). It always crashes at the same point, when it's building the
    workspace.
    The only trial version I had installed was for DW and it's long gone and
    cleaned off. I still have CS3 installed. This is not an upgrade but a full
    new version.
    I have a lot of time into this. Your response time on the last issue was
    more than a week and by then I'd solved the problem. I was going to try to
    work with tech on the phone today but you're not open on the weekends!
    Pretty sad. I hope I get some timely and helpful answers from you this time.
    I don't know what else to try.
    Thanks,
    Sheila
