Windows 7 operating system won't load Photoshop CS2?

I've purchase a new computer with Windows 7 operating system. My photshop CS2 won't load. I've
tried adobe support. They said I have to upgrade to Photoshop 3 or 4 unless you have a s
olution here.  If you don't can I just purchase the upgrade and if so, how can I get the upgrade
on my new computer if the originals won't load.

Hi, and welcome to Apple Discussions.
Try booting into Safe Mode. This will take quite awhile longer than a normal startup because it does a file check and repair of the hard disk.
If this works you will see your normal desktop. Once completely started up in Safe Mode, try to restart normally, and go to Applications > Utilities > Disk Utility. Click on the top hard drive icon in the left sidebar and note the S.M.A.R.T. status at the bottom right of the pane. What does it say?
Select the named boot volume in the left sidebar, ("Macintosh HD" unless you've renamed it). What is the hard drive capacity and how much space remains available on it? Repair permissions on it.
See if you are able to do a little hard drive maintenance to help things out. If Safe Mode doesn't work for you, post back and we will explore other options.

  • Tiger operating system won't load

    I put my flash drive in my system froze so i rebooted now all i get is the apple logo just sits there loading. HELP!!

    Welcome to Apple Discussions!
    1. If your data is backed up, just restore your backup.
    2. If your data is not backed up, wait a half hour to see if there is a change. If you have another Mac, see if you can see your data and restore it with Target Disk Mode desctibed below:
    http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=58583
    You may also be able to restore your system back to normal simply by zapping the PRAM:
    http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=2238
    If you are unable to restore either way, purchase a Firewire external hard drive at least as large as your internal drive, and Prosoft Data Rescue or Subrosasoft Filesalvage on CD. Boot from one of them with the startup manager:
    http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=106178
    And attempt to restore your data to the external hard drive.
    Let us know where you stand after that, which steps you took, and we can tell you the next step.

  • Operating system won't load

    I'm using an iMac with Tiger, and about an hour ago my Safari shut down and wouldn't reopen, nor would any of my other programs. So I shut it dwn, and when I try to turn it back on, it gets to the screen where it says Mac OS X and would normally load and go to profile select, but doesn't load. What's wrong with it?

    is it possible to redownload that stuff without paying as long as you have the account information?
    Nope. When you signed the agreement, it was pointed out that it is your responsibility to backup everything.
    You might be able to recover it with Prosoft Data Rescue and a Firewire external hard drive of at least the same size as your existing hard drive, or if you have another Mac, to use Target Disk Mode to see if the drive is visible from that other Mac.
    http://www.prosofteng.com/ makes Data Rescue
    Target Disk Mode is explained here:
    http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=58583
    If your Mac is invisible using Target Disk Mode, then you have to use a data recovery software.

    Try downloading the trial. It ought to detect that you have a 64-bit system.
    You aren't using Vista, are you? PSE 13 requires at least win 7 and I think a few folks with vista have gotten a similar error message on trying to install it.

    What operating system and version of photoshop are you using?
    Did you move/copy any plugins from an earlier version of photoshop into your present version?
    Did you point the Photoshop (Edit)>Preferences>Plug-ins>Additional Plugins Folder to an earlier version of photoshop?

    You will also need good 3D drivers. Unfortunately, Gallium3D drivers aren't in a usable state today.
    Speak for yourself.  The AMD and Intel drivers are getting better at a very decent pace, and it won't be long until they're the preferred ones for nearly everyone on GNU/Linux using that hardware.
    Also, according to the Phoronix article, it'd be fairly simple (and nearly no overhead) to get this to play nice with NVIDIA and AMD binary blobs.

    Yes, but note that the blog there is saying:
    "What I was talking about is adding features to the Gallium interfaces that will allow us to support those API's, not about actually releasing any of those API's as state trackers for Gallium."
    Well, what this news is all about is that Direct3D 10/11 _is_ being added as a state tracker for Gallum
    He's right of course that Direct3D isn't everything, and there's all this boatloads of other stuff meant for Windows to work around (notice it says Direct3D, not DirectX -- Direct3D is only part of DirectX), but that's what Wine is working on, and doing a pretty damn good job of it if you ask me.

  • MuVo V100 - Windows Operating System Not Suppor

    Just bought a MuVo V00 - After inserting the program disc, the following message appeared: "The Windows Operating System running on this computer is not supported by this product". The package shows that W98SE is supported and this is what my Dell computer has loaded (W98 SE Build 4.0.2222). What's confusing however, is that in the instructions, it says that to check the operating system version, go to START/RUN and type WINVER. After doing this, it responds with W98.

    This is going to sound dumb but I just got a call from someone claiming to be with Microsoft Windows tech dept. Apparently something malicious attacking my computer.  I hung up because Mac doesn't use Microsoft Window Operating System - right?  I have Mac OS X.  I have loaded Microsoft Office 2011.  Can that allow something malicious or is this guy a scammer and I was right to hang up???

    Actually you can install Windows on your MBP via Bootcamp.
    You should have kept the individual on the phone for as long as you can tolerate.  The time he wastes with you is time he cannot spend scamming an innocent victim. 
    You can always politely ask the caller to hold while you 'answer the front door' or the like and just set down the phone and go about your business.  The caller will eventually hang up. 
    But your analysis was 100% correct.

  • HT1678 How do I synch/download photos from my iPod classic to my computer, which has a Windows operating system?  Thanks.

    I am trying to download photos from my iPod to either an external hard drive or my computer, which has a Windows operating system. The iPod should function like an external hard drive, right?  My photo files/computer/hard drive were damaged. Can I put my photos on the iCloud, and then save on external drive?  Not sure how to o this either.  I lost a few years of baby photos. Thanks for any help!

    iTunes syncing to iPods (that are not iPod touch) mostly goes one way, from computer to iPod.  For photos, at the time you synced the photos to the iPod, there is a setting that you needed to have enabled in iTunes if you later want to recover them from the iPod.  This setting is on the iPod's Photos tab in iTunes (where you set up photo syncing).  There is a checkbox for Include full-resolution photos.
    IF that checkbox was checked, you can Enable disk use on the iPod's Summary tab, and find the full-res photo files in the Photos folder on the iPod.  Otherwise (if setting not checked), when iTunes syncs the photos to the iPod, iTunes converts the images to a very low-resolution version that is optimized to fit the small iPod screen and stores the image data in a single database file (to save storage space).  There may be third-party software that can extract separate photos from that database file, but the resulting photos will look bad blown up to computer screen size.

  • P35 platinum ms7345, system won't load OS, stops at msi splash screen

    motherboard in question is a p35 platinum ms7345
    system won't load the OS, stops at msi splash screen, can't get into bios.
    LED code stops at G-R-G-R "Testing Base and  Extended Memory"
    this is a system that I built over 8 months ago. the only thing I
    did was upgrade the cpu to a E8400( from a e6750). I had no previous
    problems. but after the upgrade. I first received an error
    = attempt to overclock failed = ( cant quote but as I remembered it)
     press any button to reset bios.( I have received this message before with the old cpu but with a restart the system went on as normal). After the system restart, it just sits on the splash screen. I never attempted
    to overclock the memory. the jb1 & jb2 jumpers are on 1 & 2 pins(same way it
    came from newegg). I tried to use different memory( in all of the slots) same outcome.
    I unplugged
    all other hardware except vid card> same outcome. I even used a different
    vid card> same outcome.
    system specs
    core 2 e8400
    msi p35 platnum

    any suggestions? I appreciate any help. I hope the board isn't   finished
    thanks in advance
    NFIXIT

    There are three possible solutions to solve the situation:
    1) Install a processor supported by the current BIOS Version to be able to properly turn on your system and then update the BIOS to the latest Version to be able to use your E8400/E0 (update should be done from DOS only).
    2) Ask in a local computer shop or contact your reseller to do the same thing for you.
    3) Connect an internal floppy drive and a PS/2 Keyboard and then try to force the system into AMI BIOS Recovery Mode.  Instructions:
    Quote
    Rename the desired AMI BIOS file to AMIBOOT.ROM and save it on a floppy disk. e.g. Rename A7345IMS.1xx to AMIBOOT.ROM
    Insert this floppy disk in the floppy drive. Turn On the system and press and hold Ctrl-Home to force update. It will read the AMIBOOT.ROM file and recover the BIOS from the A drive.
    When 4 beeps are heard you may remove the floppy disk and restart the computer.
    Even though the AMI BIOS Recovery Procedure is the only chance you have to solve the situation without installing a different processor, it does not work in all cases.  However, as it is an easy procedure, it is at least worth a try.
