Trouble Opening Illustrator and Photoshop CS2??

When opening Adobe Illustrator CS2 I receive a Windows Box showing Adobe Illustrator: Illustrator.exe - Application Error The instruction at "0x003c197d" referenced memory at "0x000000000". The memory could not be "read". Click on OK to terminate the program.
I am also having trouble accessing Adobe Photoshop CS2. When I open the program it simply stays in one sequence as a loop and does not completely open.

32 bit Windows XP
I also tried uninstalling and re-installing the full program and it still has the same problem.
I even checked my ram by moving a single memory card from one slot to the next to see if that was the problem but still the same error messages.

Slow to open Illustrator and Photoshop files from FileServer

I have a client that has 5 or so Mac users who cannot open Illustrator and Photoshop files from our Windows Server 2008 R2 Standard. At first, we thought it might be the size of the files over the network because some files are 2-3GB, but they are even having issues with files 200KB. We also tested network and bandwidth speeds, but they are all connected to Gigabit connections and running with PowerMacs.
Some users have a workaround by copying the files to their desktop to open, but that is becoming tedious as well.
Does anyone have another solution or know what might be cause to this?

>Anyone know a way?
You want to edit a Photoshop file, buy Photoshop. You want to edit an Illustrator file, buy Illustrator.

Illustrator and Photoshop CS2 freeze up when placing objects.

When I try to place an object, in both CS2 Illustrator and Photoshop, the software freezes and must be restarted. Also when I click on the top of the window that a document is opened in, the document disappears from the screen. It is technically still open, but I can't retrieve it by scrolling. The window is literally off the screen, unable to be reached. I've been having problems with this software since I got it, is there a chance that there is a bug of sorts messing with me in the software?
This is very annoying, I hope there is a solution for it. I end up losing 75% of my work because I have to tip-toe around the software so much.
Thanks,
Ryan D

Illustrator and Photoshop CS2 have both suddenly "Quit Unexpectedly"

I haven't upgraded because I've been comfortable using this version and didn't see any need to up grade. Until now. I called Adobe and was told that they won't support or gaurantee any of their product older than CS6. Any Ideas why they both suddenly quit would be appreciated.

Trouble opening the free photoshop and illustrator trial downloads, please help!

Dear Michael,
In response to your questions, please see below;
What OS? OS X 10.8.2
What happens? When i click on the ''AdobePatchInstaller'' i get this message, ''Update Failed, Updates could not be applied. This patch is not applicable for you. Please check for updates from the Help menu in your product to see a list of latest updates available. If the problem persists, contact customer support for further assistance.
Any error messages? No
Did you have previous versions of the software on your system? No
Is the trouble with the download or the installation of the software? I am not sure but i think it may be the download. It shows that the download was complete and icon appears on the desktop. I plan to buy the ''Adobe Creative Suite 6 Design & Web Premium'' but i wanted to try it first via the free trials, especially Photoshop and Illustrator. So please let me know what i need to do.
Kind regards,

My Adobe Illustrator and Photoshop CS6 aren't opening...

Hello, I am having issues with my Illustrator and Photoshop CS6. Both software are encountering different issues. For Illustrator, the issue is that when the software is trying to start up, it crashes unexpectedly (it seems to get stuck on the "ColorHarmony.aip" then quits). Illustrator opens maybe 5% of the time when i sit there and try to open it, but its rare to get it to work.
For Photoshop, it crashes 50% of the time during start up (similar to Illustrator), but the main issue with Photoshop is that when it actually opens, everything becomes incredibly slow. The mouse glitches and it takes extremely long for anything to actually work, I can't even select tools because the mouse glitches so bad.
inDesign however is completely fine.
I own the Adobe Creative suite : Standard
My computer is a HP Envy laptop with windows 8.1. It has 16b of RAM, an i7 processor and has a nvidia geforce graphics card.
I have already un-installed and re-installed the software and even did a system restore and it didn't solve the issue.
Please help I need this for school.
Thanks,
-Eric

Moving this discussion to the Illustrator forum.
Eric you have not posted any installation errors thus I moved this discussion to the Illustrator forum. I would recommend you post any specific launch error or performance inconsistencies in the forum relevant to that software title. You can find a list of available forums at https://forums.adobe.com/welcome.

Opening files with Illustrator and photoshop doesn't work, i have to drag the files from finder in to the program.
This problem appears after opening 4 a 5 files, rebooting helps another 4 a 5 times and appears again.

I'd recommend reposting in the Boot Camp forum, that is where the Boot Camp and Windows gurus hang out.
Good luck.

Mac,
Nothing shows up here?

With CS5 you must have registered, hopefully under your present Adobe ID.
I am afraid the chat and phone support are off until the beginning of January.

First of all, thank you for replying so promptly to my posts this morning!
I can't remember how I got the software on his computer, but I'm pretty sure it wasn't through migration assistant.
I was looking into doing an uninstall of InDesign and a fresh install. However, I initially downloaded the CS5 suite digitally and I can't find out how I am able to perform a fresh install of InDesign. Do you know where I find this info or gain access to download just InDesign again? I can't seem to find anything in my Adobe account that shows where I might do another download.

I'm having problems with CS2 (mainly illustrator and photoshop

I'm having problems with CS2 (mainly illustrator and photoshop ) randomly shutting down while trying to save a file. Reformatted my laptop for fear of a virus and reloaded... I have gotten nowhere.
Please Help!

CS3 still had issues with the preferences becoming corrupt, so a possible workaround would be to reset the preferences.
The file is called AIPrefs and is located under 'Documents and Settings/User/Application Data/Adobe/Adobe Illustrator CS3 Settings'. It is a hidden file. Delete it with Illustrator closed and when you launch the program again the file will be rebuilt.
May be it is also sounds like you need more memory for your computer. If you can navigate to your computer's memory controls, and allow your operating system to use a portion of your hard disk drive (HDD) as RAM (maybe 2Gb or so) it may solve your issue.
How is about: http://www.filerepairforum.com/forum/adobe/adobe-aa/illustrator/383-%E2%80%8Bcorrupted-fon ts-in-illustrator-file-urgent-help-need – resource has non-commercial specialty
Third party software Illustrator Repair Kit also must be good solution
It has free demo version at:- http://www.illustrator.repair/
Hope this will be helpful.

Is Indesign CS4 compatible with Illustrator CS2 and Photoshop CS2?

We are a small business and have been working in the CS2 suite forever. We had someone do some work for us in Indesign CS4 and are looking to upgrade to that version so we can work with these files as changes happen. If we upgrade to Indesign CS4 will it still be compatible with the rest of my CS2 programs (Illustrator and Photoshop). Placing files and such. Thanks in advance, I know I am way behind here but it is what is cost effective for now.

Adobe only sells InDesign CC (by subscription) or InDesign CS6. You might find boxed legal copies of CS5 or 5.5 from a vendor like Amazon.
You should be very wary of buying older Adobe software on the Internet or eBay. Many copies don't have a legal license and may cause you problems in the future. Caveat emptor.

Issues with Win 7 & CS2. Illustrator and Photoshop have "Stopped Working"

Hi, New to this so I apologize in advance. Bought a new computer in December '09. 6gig quad processor and plenty of 500gigs of disc space. NOt a Memory Issue! Installed CS2 ( 'cause the computer took all of my money!) and all worked fine until 4 days ago. I mainly use illustrator and photoshop. When I tried to save a document... The programs simply "Stopped Working" I'm a rookie with the tech stuff so please speak slowly and simply.... I would appreciate any help as I'm losing money and work right now! Thanks

CS2 is totally unsupported under Win 7. And if you have 6 gigs of RAM I'll guess that it's a 64 bit system which simply adds to the complexity.
Sorry, but the best advice you'll get is to upgrade.

Illustrator and Photoshop Quit together?

I have Illustrator CS2 and Photoshop CS2. If I have one of the programs open, then try to open the other, the first program quits. i.e. I can't have both of these programs open at the same time. I have a Mac Pro which is a newer computer than my Apple computer at work and at work, I have no problems with both programs open at once. My operating system is Mac OSX (v 10.4.11). Please, please help!!!! Can e-mail me at: [email protected]

CS2 is not a native intel app. (it was written before Apple was using Intel chips) You have to update to CS3 or above in order to be able to reliably use them simultaneously on an Intel Mac. Sorry!
