It worked perfectly before I wiped my computer.
Any Advise?

Sounds like you have the driver problems worked out, Bazooka, but for reference:
1. Go to nVidia's web site (www.nvidia.com).
2. Click the DOWNLOAD DRIVERS link.
3. In the Option 2 section, press the [ GRAPHICS DRIVERS ] button.

Trouble with photoshop(cs4) manages colours

Hello there. I have callibrated my printer, and have callibrated my monitor monthly over the three months since I purchased my Color Munki. I have set up a printer profile that I want to use. I have CS4 and using a "two up view" for soft- proofing, the copy to be printed (on screen) was at first rather dull with a green cast and with blacks greyed off compared to the master copy and very difficult to match the master even closely. The prints were passable after a lot of fiddling but not as good as I had hoped even compared to prints I produced before I used my own printer- paper profile .. However recently the prints have got even worse. They are really, really dark when printed even though they dont look so on screen.They also still have the colour cast etc. I have been selecting "no color management' in the printer dialogue along with the printer- paper profile. I have had to resort to using "Printer manages colour" and a generic printer paper profile again as I used to do. I am getting far better prints with good colour matches this way so it would seem that there is nothing wrong with the printer. I have concluded that it must be a problem with the colour management in my CS4 Photoshop. I have an Epson Stylus photo 1410 printer, a Dell flat screen U2410 monitor and a nikon D90 camera. I feel so disappointed after forking out for the Color Munki etc hoping to get really top class prints. .I would really appreciate some advice.

You have to make sure you have configured everything to work together - i.e., to make the printer driver expect that Photoshop is going to do the color transform.
However, there were some posts last year implying people with Epson printers were seeing "double profiling" - meaning somehow two color transforms were being invoked, and they couldn't turn the behavior off. I think at least some people just broke down and bought new printers, as Epson apparently would not fix the drivers to work properly with Photoshop CS5.
I don't know whether yours might fall under the same issue, but you could double check with Epson.com and see if there have been any newer drivers released for your model.

Trouble with Photoshop CS4 Upgrade

I recently bought a CS4 Photoshop upgrade on Ebay, but when I enter my old photoshop serial number, it says it is not valid.
The CS4 serial number works, but I cannot continue the upgrade without the CS2 serial number.
"Invalid Serial Number" comes up.

Well, there's always the chance it's a scam. In any case call serial number support or use the web chat. they can check the number and tell you what is going on.

nope... this is a known issue for users. Hopefully will be resolved soon (not holding my breath though). Some people have suggested resetting pram, uninstalling flash, quitting Safari, updating java, installing third party mouse driver software etc... but for me nothing has worked yet.
I have 2 monitors and this happens quite a lot, but ONLY on my iMac monitor. If i move the mouse cursor to my second screen it's visible there, move it back to my iMac screen and it disappears.
My workaround is to hover over the dock to claim my cursor back, but that is really just an annoying thing to do every 5 mins.
I am convinced this is a OSX issue but the two companies are just pointing fingers which will not result in any fix any time soon.
Thinking about selling my two Apple machines because of this bug.

Trouble In Photoshop CS4

Hello
Trouble In Photoshop CS4
Windows 7 build 7100
Proved when Photoshop opens and closes the window
Is there a solution
Trouble
Proved Photoshop CS4 when
Opens the window and disappear in less than a sec
This problem in Photoshop CS4 Only
Program Illustrator CS4 Works very well

My PS CS4 is working great in Windows 7 RC.
When you bought the CS4 software did you buy it as a download or did you buy the CD?
Either way you still have to run the install as administrator.
Look in event viewer. If CS4 hung like that event viewer would record it.
With Windows 7 RC your on your own. Here is a helpful website:

Problem with Photoshop CS4 after migration to new Mac

I just migrated from an old Mac to a new Macbook Pro running Mavericks. I'm having a problem with Photoshop CS4. Specifically, two things:
1) When I open an image in Camera Raw, I get this error:
Fatal error - missing component
/Library/Application Support/Adobe/Adobe Version Cue CS4/Client/4.0.0/VersionCue.framework
2) When I try to save anything, it tells me it can't because of a program error.
I've looked around for a solution. Apparently I had to install Java, but that hasn't solved the issue. A couple of people mentioned that reinstalling would work for a similar problem. My problem with that is that my disk is on the other side of the world and my new macbook doesn't have a disk drive anyway. So I logged into my Adobe account hoping to see a download link for software I have licences for, but there isn't one.
So my question is firstly, whether there is a simpler solution to the errors I am getting and, if not, if there's a solution to reinstalling Photoshop CS4 without the disk.
Thanks!

Did you use Apple's migration tool? It misses a lot of support files, especially in the Application Support directories.
You'll have to copy those files manually, or reinstall the app.

Using Lightroom 5 with Photoshop CS4

Hi folks. New Here. I am a novice convert to digital photography and I have browsed the discussions concerning Lightroom and Elements in the main.
Is there any need to buy Lightroom 5 to deal with cataloguing and searching imported RAW images with Photoshop CS4, as Photoshop Bridge 4 comes with Photoshop CS4? What is a good strategy for dealing with libraries of images? I have the chance to aquire inexpensive versions of LR 5 and P CS4.
For your information - I am using a MacBook Pro with a quad core i7 processor, 16 GB RAM, 1 TB Flash drive and my camera is a Canon PowerShot SX50 HS.
Many thanks.

Thanks 99jon,
I appreciate the careful and easy to understand reply, Jon99. Versions of P higher than CS4 are prohibitively expensive for me at this stage. If I get on with digital photography then I might look at the PCS and L CC subscription option in the future.
I went ahead I aquired my bargain basement version of P CS4 and like it so far, but I held back on LR5 until I had a clearer view of what it enables me to do and thanks for the information.
Do you or anyone know if I can sell my version of P CS4 when if I decide to move up to the Cloud solution? Flicking through another Pogue-style book seems to suggest that the latest versions of P CS and L are the current state-of-the-art. Is there a simple list of what users of this option consider to be the main, *essential* improvements of the latest versions of these two pieces of software that possibly make it a must-purchase. I am not after an exhaustive list, but just the main improvements that may make this an essential purchase after I cut my teeth with P CS4.
I am a real novice and have included the specs of my camera and MacBook Pro in my previous post for anybodies info in order to help me.
Many thanks,
David

Help with add file name problem with Photoshop CS4

Frustrating problem: Help with add file name problem with Photoshop CS4. What happens is this. When I am in PS CS4 or CS3 and run the following script it runs fine. When I am in Bridge and go to tools/photoshop/batch and run the same script it runs until it wants interaction with preference.rulerunits. How do I get it to quit doing this so I can run in batch mode? Any help is appreciated. HLower
Script follows:
// this script is another variation of the script addTimeStamp.js that is installed with PS7
//Check if a document is open
if ( documents.length > 0 )
var originalRulerUnits = preferences.rulerUnits;
preferences.rulerUnits = Units.INCHES;
try
var docRef = activeDocument;
// Create a text layer at the front
var myLayerRef = docRef.artLayers.add();
myLayerRef.kind = LayerKind.TEXT;
myLayerRef.name = "Filename";
var myTextRef = myLayerRef.textItem;
//Set your parameters below this line
//If you wish to show the file extension, change the n to y in the line below, if not use n.
var ShowExtension = "n";
// Insert any text to appear before the filename, such as your name and copyright info between the quotes.
//If you do not want extra text, delete between the quotes (but leave the quotes in).
var TextBefore = "Lower© ";
// Insert any text to appear after the filename between the quotes.
//If you do not want extra text, delete between the quotes (but leave the quotes in).
var TextAfter = " ";
// Set font size in Points
myTextRef.size = 10;
//Set font - use GetFontName.jsx to get exact name
myTextRef.font = "Arial";
//Set text colour in RGB values
var newColor = new SolidColor();
newColor.rgb.red = 0;
newColor.rgb.green = 0;
newColor.rgb.blue = 0;
myTextRef.color = newColor;
// Set the position of the text - percentages from left first, then from top.
myTextRef.position = new Array( 10, 99);
// Set the Blend Mode of the Text Layer. The name must be in CAPITALS - ie change NORMAL to DIFFERENCE.
myLayerRef.blendMode = BlendMode.NORMAL;
// select opacity in percentage
myLayerRef.opacity = 100;
// The following code strips the extension and writes tha text layer. fname = file name only
di=(docRef.name).indexOf(".");
fname = (docRef.name).substr(0, di);
//use extension if set
if ( ShowExtension == "y" )
fname = docRef.name
myTextRef.contents = TextBefore + " " + fname + " " + TextAfter;
catch( e )
// An error occurred. Restore ruler units, then propagate the error back

HELP- Printing Problem with Photoshop CS4

Hello Everyone,
I just bought the PHOTOSHOP CS4, and I am having problem when it prints. The image is not clear, it has dots (pixels). This computer where I installed this program is brand new. I have previously worked with Photoshop CS2 and never had an issue but was force to buy this new one because the computer that I bought has Windows Vista and CS2 is not compatible. I thought maybe the problem was my printer but is not I have a Brother HL-5140 (black and white). I have connected my old computer with the printer and the images print perfectly fine. I have printed photos and it prints clear. But this only happens with Photoshop CS4. It prints dots, can someone please help me. Is driving me crazy.

Really I'd be willing to bet it's your driver under Vista.
I have the same problem using Vista and a older HP LaserJet, under XP and CS2 it prints well. Under Vista it's a bunch of dithered pixelated dots.
They want you to buy a newer printer.

I haven't heard of anyone else with those specific symptoms.
But another poster has had problems with his Canon 9900 not printing (but no blank page).
The first thing to do is make sure you are using the Canon drivers and not the GutenPrint/GimpPrint drivers.
After that, you probably need to check with Canon.

Problem with Photoshop CS4

I bought Web Creative Premium CS4 on Nov. 2007, with the hope and dreams that Photoshop CS4 could help me bring in a second income and help me with old family pictures. I wanted to install the product on another hard drive I had bought for my workstation computer. The hard drive is a western digital 150 gigabyte hard drive and I made a 40 gigabyte partition of free space for Photoshop CS4 to play on. At the time there were no advanced tutorials on advance installation of the product on another partition on the internet. CS4 was new on the market. I sent an email in to the forum and explained my disposition. I wrote an essay form question. Something to this affect. I would like to be able to install Adobe Photoshop CS4 to another partition, where CS4 can build out the configuration folder, the brush folder, the template folder, etc.. on another hard drive other than C:\ and the registry configuration can build out the proper configuration commands in the registry to point CS4 to those location on startup. After that long question I got a one sentence answer. “ Yes you can install Adobe Photoshop CS4 custom to any hard drive”. I assumed from the answer I was not dealing with an intelligent community, so I decide to just suffer the best I could. With over several updates and several re-installs of the product I have concluded that Photoshop CS4 is not user friendly. I go through a daily step of procedures, which gives me an outcome of a final product. Though Photoshop CS4 does not work in a perfect world, even though you pay your life’s dreams into it. I have to change my procedure steps every time after a new update is installed. Since I cannot get any help with this problem, or an advanced computer technician with a B.A. in Computer Science to help me. I see no other recourse in keeping this product, and would like to know how I can get a full re-fund. I have only made one digital print with Photoshop CS4. That took me one year to get the general ideas without any tutorials. I happened on some basic trail and errors to get an awesome outcome with layering and lighting effects. Just some general FYI on something’s I have noticed over the years, which changed. At one time I was able to create a new layer and the background would fill in automatically white. Now I have to do it manually and sometimes when I use the magic wand to copy an object to paste it to another layer, when I go to that layer and click on the object to move it. I move the whole layer. You have to laugh, because if you don’t you would probably want to run your fist through your 22’ wide LCD screen. Thanks for listening.

Best practice is to install PS CS4 on C drive. PS Expects certain files and folders to be on C drive. Since this is a user to user forum and we (I) don't work for Adobe you will have to call Customer service for a refund.

Trouble with Photoshop Cs6

Having trouble with Photoshop cs6. Brushes that i have downloaded from 3rd party websites were deleted from Photoshop after months of use. We replaced all the brushes 1 by 1 but now there is an extreme lag in almost every function in photoshop that i had never experienced before. Dont know what is going wrong.

CS3 file not compatible with Photoshop CS4?

My son uses Photoshop CS3 at college. He worked all day on an image (120MB), and saved it on a USB stick. When opening at home with Photoshop CS4, the "Reading Photoshop format" appears, then an error message "Could not complete your request because the file is not compatible with this version of Photoshop."
He has been burned before by a USB stick, but all the other files seem OK.
Is there a solution to this?

^First thing I did was make a copy.
QuickTime Picture Viewer (which seems to open other PSD files) says it is corrupted.
Adobe Bridge can read the metadata, gives no preview, and won't open the file.
Any other thoughts?
