Trouble after loading the Adobe Design Suite CS5.

I just loaded CS5 onto my MacBook Pro.
Running OS 10.5.8.
I have been having trouble with getting my custom workspaces to save.
I get all the palletes and panels set up where I want and Save Workspace with a name.
That all goes well until I shut down. When I restart, the recently saved Workspace is nowhere to be found.
It is not in the Window-Workspace, or Manage Workspace areas.
Can I use my previous version CS4 custom Workspace file? If so, where do I find that? And then where do I drag a copy of it to make it work for CS5?
And with Photoshop CS5 I get the palletes all in their custom places and when I go to Save Workspace Photoshop crashes.
I have uninstalled the entire package and run the CS5 Clean Tool and then re-loaded the entire Design Premium CS5 and still the trouble.
Can anyone help?
Thanks!

The reason Illustrator crashes on quit is that as a last step in quitting it tries to write the preferences files to keep any changes made during the session. If it does not have permission to write these files it crashes and any changes made to the preferences are not saved. Try doing a "Get Info" on the following folder Users/<yourname>/Library/Application Support/Adobe/Adobe Illustrator CS5. What are the permissions for that folder? Also you can try to make a new user account and try from there. If it works then you have a problem with you old user account.

    Hello
    Recently, I asked about the possibility to swap from windows to mac with Adobe Design Standard CS5.5. In response, I was directed to the help page and i know that it is possible. But today I see that the help page is out of date.
    How cann I now swap platforms for Adobe Design Standard CS5.5? Do I realy need to buy CS6? Or afer dowloading the mac version of CS5.5 I get the key. And if I realy need upgreade the CS5.5 cann I use the Mac version of CS6 for the dowloaded mac version of CS5.5? Is it possible?

    Thanks !
    I didn't know that I cann buy CS6 Mac upgrade in Adobe Store.
    So I have only to buy the CS6 Mac versions and upgrade CS5.5 Win to CS6 Mac?
    How does look the procedure?
    Do I need to install first the CS5.5 Mac on my Macbook and then upgrade it or is it not necessary?
    Thanks

  • Where can the install.app file be found when installing Adobe Creative Suite CS5, download version ?

    I have the same problem that the user who wrote the post "Trouble installing content files on Mac", but his post went unanswered. Here is the link: http://forums.adobe.com/message/4221280. I am trying to install the adobe creative suite CS5 downloaded from the internet, and what I have is a dmg file. When I open it, there is only a read me and a folder named "English". In the read me I go to the install instructions, and they tell me to double-click in Install.app, a file which doesn't exist. What am I doing wrong?

    I downloaded it from Adobe Store. When I open the dmg file I see the read me.pdf and the English folder, nothing more. Perhaps the problem is that I have already installed the program in one computer, this is happening to me trying to install it in another one. Could that be it, that I need another license in order to make it work?

  • Download adobe design std cs5.5

    Hi,
    I'm mattia. Where can i download the adobe design std cs5.5 for mac? thanks

    You can download the trial installer directly from the link below. You will need to be on a trial download page in order to use the links, otherwise you will get an error message. For example load up the following page: http://www.adobe.com/cfusion/tdrc/index.cfm?product=production_premium before pasting the link into the address bar and login with your adobe id and then cancel the download.Then open the below link and try downloading the application.

  • While upgrading Adobe Creative Suite CS4 ME into Adobe Creative Suite CS5.5 Design Premium, I get an error saying This serial number is not of a qualifying product, please try another. I used to be able to get a code from customer service but I can't get

    While upgrading Adobe Creative Suite CS4 ME into Adobe Creative Suite CS5.5 Design Premium, I get an error saying This serial number is not of a qualifying product, please try another. I used to be able to get a code from customer service but I can't get to the chat. Please advise!!!!

    MoeGhazal I reviewed your account and it looks like you have have upgraded from a CS4 volume license for Design Premium to a retail upgrade of Design Premium 5.5.
    I also show that you made two purchases of CS5.5 Design Premium but the second purchase was canceled.  Please make sure you are utilizing the serial number which ends in 7886.
    If you are using the correct serial number then it is likely the installer will not recognize your volume license CS4 serial number as being valid for an upgrade.  If you can contact our support team then you can be walked through an unlocking procedure to allow you to proceed with the installation.  You can contact our support team directly at Contact Customer Care.  You may want to try installing a web browser you have not previously utilized.  It is likely a toolbar or some other software application is affecting your ability to access chat support successfully.
    If you are still unable to reach our support team then please verify the information under your account is accurate.  If you can please then update this discussion after confirming this then I can request a member of our support team contact you directly.
    Again I would recommend reaching out directly if possible as it will be the most efficient method of resolving your current error.

  • I have purchased the Adobe Creative Suite 6 Design & Web Premium but will not allow me to register?

    I have purchased the Adobe Creative Suite 6 Design & web Premium & it will not allow me to register the software --- I'm having to use the trial version --- will you please help me in updating --- the products that I have paid lots of money for?
    And I currently have Adobe Audition 1.5 --- please contact me via [email address removed]
    but I would like to get this registered immediately ---
    Currently I have been the recipient of a very bad experience regarding the manner in which Adobe is forcing me to spend more money on products without allowing me to upgrade accordingly --- or in having to speak to a FOREIGNER --- who cannot communicate properly .... please respond as soon as possible ... please.
    My experience in trying to speak to someone with a 'Extremely Thick Accent' was very unpleasant and aggrivating ... and ended up 'going no where.'
    I need to speak/communicate  with someone who can help in using the product that I have paid a lot of money for.

  • Anyone as frustrated as i am...just bought a brand new 13" powerbook to find that I can't load my adobe creative suite 2.3 software! i need solutions that do not involve spending more $$$$ one the newest version.

    Is anyone  as frustrated as i am...just bought a brand new 13" powerbook to find  that I can't load my adobe creative suite 2.3 software using the lion os! I need solutions  that do not involve spending more $$$$ one the newest CS version. After googling problem, I find I am not the only one. Apple told me Creative Suite 3 would work, but others said no.  Version 5.5 seems to be most reliable. Any feedback would be greatly appreciated.

    No, you're not the only person who failed to do any homework before making your purchase. You will have to upgrade your Adobe software at the very least. Before you post another complaint about what doesn't run see
    About incompatible software (OS X v10.6, OS X Lion, OS X Mountain Lion)

  • CS3 freezes at Adobe Design Suite window upon loading

    All of a sudden on both my macs running OSX 10.7.5, I can't load any of my CS3 programs. My computer keeps freezing on the window titled "Adobe Design Suite Standard CS3". The window below is blank and the only active button is the yellow one, not the red or green. I have tried restarting several times to no avail. Anybody know what is happening? Should I try reinstalling the entire suite on both my computers? Thanks for any assistance.

    Hi KJess,
    Did you install any new updates that might have caused this? When was the last time that it was working fine?
    Try launching the app in Mac's safe mode and check.
    Are you not able to launch any of the application from the Design standard Suite?
    In case you still face issues consider removing the program and reloading it,

    About a year ago I purchased the student addition of the Adobe Creative suite 6 Design Standard and just recently purchased an additional computer for my home. Can I use the same disc that I previously purchased to download the program?

    Yes, as long as the machine meets the system requirements for the software you can install and activate it.  Your license allows you to have the software installed and activated on two machines.

  • Why is my trial download for the Adobe Creative suite taking so long?

    Hi-I have a MacOSX 10.6.8 laptop with decent internet service.I started downloading the trial for the Adobe Creative Suite 5.5 Design Standard in the morning and it is now 8:59 p.m. and it still says 20 hours left.This trial is only for 30 days-a day has gone by-that has taken away from my trial and learning this with the intention to buy after.What is the possible reason for this and do I get a day back in my trial?
    Thhanks for your immediate response.

    Copying a solution from this doc: Troubleshoot download problems (http://kb2.adobe.com/cps/152/tn_15296.html)
    Estimated download times
    Many factors, such as the connection type and network traffic, affect download speed. The following table provides estimated download times for different file sizes at typical connection speeds. These estimates assume ideal network conditions. Your actual download time can be longer. For faster downloads, avoid peak hours (9am to 6pm Eastern time). Demand for downloads can also be high the first week after a  product release. Some products, typically applications that are about 1 GB or larger, require that you have a broadband Internet connection for download.
    Note: When you order, look below or to the right of the Delivery Method pop-up menu for the file size and estimated download time.

  • After load the pdf in this program, what commands must follow to make the correction (edit),

    if you use
    http://www.doc2pdf.net/
    you can convert doc >> pdf.
    I did try with some samples of files but, in some pages where a subheading is in eg page45, in pdf moved to page44, well to modify the pdf so is exact alignment like doc I must use ACROBAT? Well, conversions from this site must done non-restrict modify the pdf? well since I have Acrobat Pro 9, after load the pdf in this program, what commands must follow to make the correction (edit), and save the file?

    Unfortunately, for your endeavor, PDF is not a file format that supports edit-layout-format activities such as are in word processors.
    Not an "issue" - rather, it reflects what PDF was/is designed to be.
    While minor editing ("touchups") are possible extensive editing of PDF content is not.
    What you appear to have encounterd with the process used to convert something to PDF is something that happens rather too often.
    That is, many non-Adobe PDF creation processes to not provide "proper" PDF.
    Which is to say PDF built to the Adobe PDF References or, now, the ISO Standard for PDF (32000-1:2008).
    As you have Acrobat Pro perhaps using it to convert the document's authoring file to PDF via print to Distiller or via Adobe PDFMaker is something to consider. These convert to PDF per the PDF References/ISO Standard.
    Be well...

  • Adobe Creative Suite CS5 is acting up. In Illustrator i was unable to move objects with my mouse, so

    Adobe Creative Suite CS5 is acting up. In Illustrator i was unable to move objects with my mouse and tried solving the problem in different ways - it still didnt work. So i opened up photoshop. I was unable to open a file in photoshop (new or old) and when i finally did manage to open something, I am unable to do many things.
    1) i cannot crop canvas    
    2) i cannot resize canvas
    3) text dissapears after i type it
    4) brush strokes dissapear after i release mouse
    etc
    What should i do??
    Thank you!

    Nobody can help you without system info or otehr details. From your description this could be driver issues with a tablet if you use one or similar issues with a programmable custom mouse... Most definitely not an issue within the programs. Unplug your mouse and tablet, uninstall and reinstall the drivers, try another input device...
