Will Photoshop 7.0 work under Windows 7?

Will Photoshop 7.0 work under Windows 7?

To get Photoshop 7.0 (or 7.0.1 in my case) to work under Windows 7 64-bit, I ran the CD's Autorun under Windows XP service pack 2 compatibility. I also set the same compatibility prefs in Win 7 for the setup.exe file in the Photoshop directory of the CD-ROM.
You'll possibly encounter an error about the scratch disk being full - this is because PS 7 fails to understand big hard drives (the huge free space number looks like an empty disk, it's kinda like a Y2K problem, since PS7 programmers or the API writers never imagined so much free space, I guess). In this case, two things are important:
You need a partition that's less than 1TB (not sure about the size, it's in another thread) for the scratch disk. I used my system's recovery partition (only 2GB free, however). Other advice I found was to create a scratch partition using Windows 7 partitioning. Maybe a USB key would work? Surely not very fast...
PS 7 will fail on startup with the "scratch disk full" error and exit. To get PS 7 to allow you to specify it, hold down CTRL and ALT when the program is launching. You'll be given a chance to indicate the partitions.

    PSE6 would install and work on windows 7 fine. There might be some issues where application interacts with OS, so you can expect some issues in OS dialog boxes that are opened in application like import dialog box.

  • Will Photoshop Elements 7 work with Windows 7?

    I am considering upgrading my laptop's operating system from Windows Vista to Windows 7 and just wanted to make sure that my photoshop (ver7) which i payed for when i bought the laptop, would still work even with the upgraded operating system.
    Thanks.

    You should be alright, however you would have to save you actual catalog files, and also transfer the photos to another machine while you make the upgrade, then reconstruct the file structure exactly as it was in Vista. This supposes you will be doing a clean install of the new OS, which would include a reformat of the HDD. Even if you are planning an upgrade installation, you would be best advised to back everything up.
    What I'm saying here is, if you want to install PSE-7 in Windows 7, yes, it will work, even in 64bit Win 7. But, if you expect to be able to transfer the collection intact to the new installation, you will have to do some prep work to make this happen.
    Transfering catalogs to a new machine, operating system, or a different version of PSE is a common discussion here, and some research of these types of threads would likely be of great benefit to you before you make the move.
    There is another consideration with respect to the laptop itself. You need to check if the proper drivers will be available from the manufacturer's website for Windows 7. If your machine never shipped with Win 7, you could have problems. Many Vista drivers will poissibly do the job under the new OS, but it isn't anything I would count on as a certainty.

  • Will Photoshop 5.0 work with Windows 7?

    I have loaded Photoshop 5.0 on to my laptop which is running Windows 7 and I cannot organize my photos.  Is this a compatability problem?

    Thanks for all of your help.  I found PS 5.0 on sale a number of years ago for about half price so I bought it with intentions of learning all of its features and to use it but all I have been doing is tag the photos and create collections and hardly any editing at all.  I think I can do the same with some free programs out there plus I still have it installed on my desktop which is running Vista and without problems.  I wanted to move everything to my laptop since it is much faster but as often as I use it I can still use the desktop.
    FYI.  AFter loading PS Elements 5.0 on to my laptop running Windows 7 I am able to get to each photo to edit it if I choose the Edit feature.  When I choose the Organize feature the circle (hourglass) just spins for hours until I shut the program down.  That is where I am having the compatibility issue.
    Again, Thanks

  • Will Photoshop Elements 10 work with Microsoft 8.1 operating system?

    When selecting the option e-mail from the Elements Organizer to share a picture, the program stops with a note from Elements Organizer stating they could not finish creating the e-mail message. I never experienced this problem when it was operating in my older computer running on Windows XP.  Will Photoshop Elements 10 work with Windows 8.1?

    Depends on what e-mail client you're using. I believe that for W8 you need to install the Windows 7 version of Windows Live Mail.

    Adobe Premiere Pro CS6 will work under windows vista?

    Hi,
    Thanks for posting on forum. Windows Vista is not a supported platform for Adobe Premiere pro CS6 but, you can try the installation on Vista and check if it gets installed on it. Also, if it gets installed you might face further issues while using the product.
    Thanks,

    I don't know. If Apple put the capability into the video driver it will. If they did not put the capability into the video driver it won't.
    You will probably get better information if you ask the question in the bootcamp forum. I stopped using bootcamp at least 2 years ago.

    Well it came installed on my brand new Windows 8 pro w530 I received 4 weeks ago and has never worked. When you try to open power manager it just crashes. If you uninstall it the Lenovo software just keep reinstalling it. If you uninstall the Lenovo PM driver but do not reboot you can then open Power Manager. The minute you reboot the Lenovo software reinstallls the driver. 
    Why would Lenovo install software on a brand new Windows 8 laptop that is broken and useless? Tech support is absolutely no help they transfer you to the software department which wants to charge you to fix a problem that Lenovo created!!! It is crazy!! I was hoping someone here could solve this problem or maybe someone at Lenovo would see this and get the problem resolved. Tech support has been useless. I reported the problem to them at least 5 times.

  • Driver for HP Laserjet 1012 to work under Windows 7- 64 bit

    Am trying to install a HP Laserjet 1012 to work under Windows 7- 64 bit and at HP Support, could find drivers for Vista -64-bit only.
    I have tried to install this Vista - 64 bit driver and it does not seem to even print a test page.
    Is there some other tweak that I need to make or
        or
    does it mean there will be no driver specifically usable for Win - 7 and I might as well junk the printer?
    Thanks in advance.
