When I try to install Photoshop CS4 extended, machine locks up

Down loaded LION.  Photoshop CS4 extended was working initially.  Then experienced hiccup, my daughter was going to clean up my machine for me and deleted a bunch of files.  Things were so screwed up I had to restore LION.  In the process, CS4 got corrupted somehow.  Tried to reinstall and whenever I do, the machine locks up and the dark screen of death appears.  I've tried everything to get CS4 to work but to no avail.  Sure would appreciate some suggestions, I really depend upon CS4 for my photographic work.  Thanks

Since my last post (initial question/problem) I logged onto Adobe.  Among their recommendations was to download Adobe CS5 cleaner; which I did.  Still cannot even install Photoshop.  As soon as I try, I get the dark screen of death which requires that I power down and restart.  Any ideas?

  • I need to install photoshop cs4 extended from a disk to a new computer because my old computer had a hard drive crash. There is no serial number on the back of the case.  How can I obtain a usable serial number?

    I have to install Photoshop CS4 extended on a new computer from a disk because my old computer had a hard drive crash.  There is no serial number on the back of the case.  How can I obtain a usable serial number?

    Find your serial number quickly
    You can activate software without following up and registering it... at least that was the case in the past.  The serial number is normally located on the disc case or a box inside the main box.  If you did not purchase the disc from Adobe then it is possible you would have dealt with a redemption code, in which case it would have been up to you to keep a record of the serial number, especially if you did not follow up and register the software.

    I own both Photoshop Elements and Photoshop (the original editor).  I find the elements editor to be too cumbersome to use and would just like to edit using Photoshop.  When I try to install Photoshop as a secondary editor in elements I get an error message that I don't need to this because it is already supported on the edit menu and task bar.  I can not find any way to send images to Photoshop for editing - all I can do is send them to elements editor or the premier editor.  Can someone tell me how to send them to Photoshop?  Thanks!

    Hi,
    The D810 requires Camera Raw 8.6 or later - the latest version that is compatible with Photoshop Elements 12 is Camera Raw 8.5 as far as I can see.
    You need to either buy a new version of Photoshop Elements or use the free Adobe DNG converter.

  • I have the system "windows 8.1". When I try to install Photoshop Elements 9 I became the error Message; Photoshop can't be install, I need the Internet Explorer 4.0 or higher. The setup will be closed.

    There is a problem with IE10+ in that it is mistakenly seen as being IE1.  To get around this either use a different browser or use compatibility view (http://windows.microsoft.com/en-us/internet-explorer/use-compatibility-view#ie=ie-10)

  • Installing photoshop cs4 extended with cs3 suite

    Hi,
    I would like to install photoshop cs4 extended with cs3 suite on the same drive.
    Is it possible?  Should I uninstall photoshop cs3 (not extended) from the drive first?
    Should I use the WinCS4Cleanupscript before I do that.
    I dont want to uninstall the whole suite cs3.
    Thanks for your advises

    CS3 will co-exist quite happily on your computer with CS4.
    Do not remove it until you are completely satisfied with the new version!
    There is absolutely no need for the clean script at this point. It is only to clear up after messed up un-installs.

  • When i try to install Photoshop Elements 10 why does it keep telling me to insert disk

    I purchased a Wacom Bamboo Create and it came with a software package which included Photoshop Elements 10 but when I try to install it, it accepts my serial number but won't let me complete the process. It keeps telling me i need to "insert Photoshop Elements10" to continue.....but the software package disk is already in the disk drive. I have a macbook pro retina that runs on Yosemite....anyone know how to solve this?
    thanks

    did you download the installation files?
    if yes, what files (names/extensions) and what sizes?
    if no, copy your cd contents to a desktop folder and attempt to install from the desktop folder.

  • Installing Photoshop CS4 Extended upgrade on my Mac Pro. query

    Hi all I do hope you can help me. I have just purchased ps cs4 extended upgrade for my Mac. On attempting to install the istall program checks my system profile then asks me for the serial number for the new product. all well up to this point, then on the next page it tells me it cannot find an existing product to upgrade from and asks me to insert the serial number of the qualifying product. I have the full version of cs3 standard on my Mac so i insert the number. Ok so far. on the same page it asks me to choose my qualifying product showing cs3 extended in the box. However when I try to insert cs3 standard I find there is nothing to change to only this one option.  On the adobe website it clearly shows that I should be able to update from the standard version  to extended. Can anyone dvise me. I purchased the upgrade from Apple and I note it is the international version.

    Thank you for your Help, just come off the phone to Adobe. I had to put a Challenge code in as it was as you suggest the wrong package only allowing Upg from CS3 Extended. All sorted now thanks to a very patient and helpful Adobe guy.  Have since updated and everything seems ok even though I am on Snow Leopard.
    Thanks again Denis

  • Problems with installing Photoshop CS4 Extended (Windows)?

    Just got new software today and am unable to install it. I keep getting the following error message: DATA_FILE_VERSION. I then have to click ok and then the screen gets hung up with the hour glass. When I try and force quit, I get another error: autoplay.exe not loading.
    Anyone else have this problem with this particular program? I've never had a problem installing any software from Adobe or otherwise. Can't seem to get support techs to answer the phone to get help.

    Googling only comes up with a couple things where someone was trying to
    install a cracked version they downloaded, so it could be a corruption
    problem.
    If this is a downloaded installer, then redownload it and try installing,
    again.
    If you are inserting a DVD and autoplay is starting up and you get this
    message, you can shut down the installer process as you've done then instead
    of double-clicking the DVD, use right-click Explore to view the files
    directly on the DVD without running AutoPlay, then find the setup.exe or
    something.MSI with EN in it's name to run the installer, directly, without
    goint through autoplay.  This would only make a difference if the autoplay
    is corrupted somehow but everything else is ok.  Since your error message
    talks about autoplay then maybe that is the case.
    If you are calling Adobe for support, it can take hours, depending on when
    you call.

  • When I try to install Photoshop CS2 I receive a message that PowerPC is no longer supported.

    Hi,
    I bought a new laptop to my company to work at, and now im trying to install Photoshop on it.
    Since my last 2 versions of Photoshop have been upgrades and i only have the full version of PS2.
    I've been trying to install the PS2 but it keeps telling me "You cant open the installer cause PowerPC-program no longer is supported".
    So i've been trying to download it via ur homepage instead (yes the products are registered).
    But i cant seem to find any way to download my product from ur page? I've checked all over ur homepage but without any luck.
    Is it not possible to download a product from ur homepage that i've payed quite a fortune for????
    Hope i can get a reply asap.
    - Tore

    ToreHagman did you purchase a new Intel processor based Mac?  If so then the error message will be accurate.  Looking at the system requirements for Photoshop CS2 it appears it required a PowerPC based processor as opposed to an Intel processor.
    You might also be having additional problems if you are using 10.7 as Rosetta/PowerPC emulation support was dropped in 10.7 as well.
