  • Validating software licence problem

    When I open an application the validating software licence screen just keeps re-opening over and over again. It was working fine 2 days ago. Can't open premiere or any app. Deleted opm.db file and tried numerous other things but still wont open. Have a client sat here waiting to edit! How the hell is this professional software? It's a fresh install and my subscription is less than a month old.

    Lightroom suddenly stopped while I was working in it.  I got the Windows message "Adobe Photoshop Lightroom 64 bit has stopped working.  A problem caused the program to stop working.   I have tried re-booting as well as reinstalling Lightroom 5.7 but whenever I try to start the program I get the same message.

    Is that really the exact message you are receiving?

The program is closed and there is a notification if a solution is available.

    I may have just solved my own problem. Right after posting this I googled bezel lightroom and found this: Flickr: Discussing The word 'bezel' appears in the taskbar. in Adobe Lightroom
    I changed the setting in the view menu and now everything appears to be working fine. I cannot explain why it stopped working before because I hadn't made any previous changes to the view options.
    Still am curious about the memory usage, though.

  • Can I download my copy of Adobe Photoshop 11 and Premiere 11 online using my product key?

    Can I download my copy of Adobe Photoshop 11 and Premiere 11 online using my product key?

    if you follow all 7 steps you can directly download a trial here:  http://prodesigntools.com/photoshop-elements-11-direct-download-links-pse-premiere-pre.htm l
    and activate with your serial number.
    if you have a problem downloading, you didn't follow all 7 steps, or your browser does not accept cookies. 
    the most common problem is caused by failing to meticulously follow steps 1,2 and/or 3 (which adds a cookie to your system enabling you to download the correct version from adobe.com). 
    failure to obtain that cookie results in an error page being displayed after clicking a link on prodesigntools.com

  • Uninterrupted useage of my legally purchased and registered Adobe Photoshop elements 10 software.

    Good afternoon,
    This IS not the first complaint of this nature (as it has happened to me once before, with an older version of the Adobe Photoshop software).
    I have been the legal and registered owner of this software (Adobe Photoshop Elements 10) for over 2 years.  In the past few weeks, each time I try to use my software, I am prompted in every instance to use my software, that an unusual request to treminate this operation has been recorded and that Adobe Photoshop 10 has become unresponsive .... with NO explanation offered.  Naturally Windows has no interest in restricting my usage of a software which I paid for and duly registered when I installed it.
    I have been an Adobe Photoshop Elements registered supporter/user for years (starting with Version 7).  Since NO legitimate reason is known for this unexplained harrasment, I am left with no other alternative but to register a complaint.  In the previous instance when this identical intrusion happened, after I investigated the reason behind such obstruction of service to a software which I was a legitimate and registered owner of, I was advised that I had more than one copy installed.
    When does Adobe intend to join the rest of us in the 21st. centry and realize that most likely the majority of their customers run more than one hard drive in their PC cases, and that as a back-up precaution, the same software might be installed on the back up hard drive as well, (and still in the only PC case the owner has)?
    I would respectfully request that this harrasment be discontinued IF us, "your customers", are expected to continue supporting the future Photoshop Elements releases.  It is NOT our fault, that Adobe seems to be legally behind the times?  
    The courtesy of a response and correction of this ongoing unjustified interruption of services would be the minimum reaction that would serve as a sign of good faith and proper cutomer rights recognition?

    Wing Rider 11.

    Hello Thomas,
    *I have worked with people whose first language was NOT, English as it also
    is not mine, but I have been here in Canada 59 years, so I had some time to
    get better at it.*
    *Thank You for your suggestion.  In frustration with this endlessly
    stubborn process, I completely removed the software and re installed it all
    over again, it seems to be working as it used to be before my problems
    started some weeks ago.  Here it is now 5:42 PM in the early evening. it
    becomes dark after 6:30 PM in our area, but here it is a comfortable +13 C,
    which is probably a lot cooler than where you are.*
    Best wishes to YOU,

  • Windows 7   " Adobe Photoshop CS3 has stopped working "

    Okay let me stir up a whole new kettle of fish WINDOWS 7 VS CS3 PHOTOSHOP.
    I have Windows 7 Ultimate Edition 64bit. I am running (or trying) CS3 Master suite. Most all progams function except Photoshop. I try to load it and I get "Adobe Photoshop CS3 has stopped working" and then there is no fix and no help. Photoshop ran on Vista 64bit just fine.
    I'm curious if anyone else is having this same issue? If so have you found any clue as to the issue?
    I get the feeling this could be a conflict with a windows 7 update or something?
    Any fixes?

    Try right clicking on the PS CS3 icon and run as admin. I can tell you that people have a lot of problems in running PS CS3 in Windows 7 and had to download the Windows XP virtual and run CS3 in virtual mode.
    Anyways here is a link to the suite forums. They may have a better answer there for you.

  • I need to re - install my Windows based Adobe Photoshop CC onto an iMac.

    How do I install my current Microsoft based Adobe Photoshop CC and Light Room onto my new iMac?

    You need to get the Mac version, do not try to install the Windows version on a Mac.  Just install the Cloud onto the Mac and get the applications  like you did with the PC.

  • Offline Adobe Cloud downloadable validation software?

    I have a laptop and a desktop, and I dont have internet access at home. I know Adobe Cloud is a monthly subscription allows you to use it every 30 days with no internet connection. The way The Foundry does it, is a yearly plan, and when its time for me to pay, I just get a new license key, and if I am not connected to the internet at home, I can take my laptop to some public WiFi, and download an installer with the key in it, so that way I dont have to be connected to the internet at home. With the cloud for my laptop I could put the Adobe Cloud on that and just goto the library once a month, but my desktop is stuck at home. Does Adobe about have any plans on making a way for those of use who desktop machines and are not online to validate our software with a license updater or something that I can download on my laptop, bring it home and install on to my computer. I dont currently have the Adobe Creative Cloud for this reason.  If not, is there are suggestion area I could suggest this? It seems like a long shot but I would at least to to try to bring this sort option to there attention if no one else has.  Adobe's "competitors" are doing it, so why not. Not really sure if The Foundry is that much of a competitor aside from compositing with After Effects vs Nuke, but I think this would make the cloud more accessible and give less of an excuse to pirate.

    The only CURRENT "no Internet" process I know of is for Government accounts https://forums.adobe.com/thread/1483694
    I do NOT know if Adobe will ever make such available to individuals

  • Windows 8, Adobe Photoshop CC, Error 16 when trying to open the program

    Hi, I recentally purchased CC and I have encountered an issue that whenever i turn my computer off and turn it on it prompts me with Error 16 asking me to reinstall. I tried the how to in the front but noticed I don't have the folders specfied in the directories NOR do I see a Windows 8 option.This is quite frustrating since I've had to reinstall the program twice.

    Hi AFNcoastal,
    In case still you get the same error please disable UAC, restart your machine and try to launch the software: http://blogs.msdn.com/b/hyperyash/archive/2012/07/18/disabling-user-account-control-in-win dows-8.aspx .

  • Adobe Photoshop CS5 (Windows 7) Lagging Brushes & Tools

    What I'm Using:
    - Toshiba F60 Qosmio Laptop w/ Windows 7
    - Adobe Photoshop CS5 (64 bit)
    Hey Everyone,
    I'm having an issue with my new Adobe Photoshop CS5 (64 bit) installed on my Brand new Laptop (Toshiba F60 Qosmio). Basically I have optimized via the Edit > Preferences > Performance menu in Photoshop CS5 but Im still having major issues with my Brushes, Patch, etc. Tools lagging while using them. When you enable the tool and use it, it will be atleast 0.5 - 1.0 Seconds behind the movement of the cursor. My Laptop is brand new and fully optimized for graphic design and seems to run every other application seamless. Adobe Photoshop launches quick and smoothly but once using the tools it has the same lag time.
    Does anyone know what I can do to fix this? Its driving me nuts and really cutting into my work schedule.
    Any ideas?
    Thanks
    Darren  

    Hi Chris,
    I will definitely give that a try. I had a tech set up my computer after i purchased it less than a week ago but it is a possibility that he missed it. I will try and run an update this weekend and see if that increases the speed when OpenGL is enabled. I will get back to you on the issue in the next few days.
    Thanks for your insight and helpful suggestion.
    Much appreciated.

  • Failed to install Adobe Bridge CS4 & Adobe Photoshop CS4 (Windows)

    I have done everything Adobe had instructed me to do.  From the clean script to the clean up utility.  Ended up doing a restore point to recover lost programs in the add/remove programs.  Adobe neglected to tell me to back up files first. I have even uninstalled every adobe program that I could and tried to install once again.  I did restart my computer each time I performed an action on my computer.  I am back to square one on trying to install my Adobe Photoshop CS4 Extended software.  If anybody has any suggestions or solutions I would appreciate any help that you can give.  I need this program for a photography class that I am enrolled in.  Classes already started & I cannot complete my first assignment without this program.  Please help me if you can.  Adobe sure couldn't
    This is one of the worst experiences I have encountered with installing a program.  I have a headache from all of this!!!
    Thank You
    Diana

    So should I manually delete everything that says Adobe?
    No, god forbid. That would be disastrous and make the situation worse. Please download the CS4 Clean Script and have it remove all traces of your damaged install. Then, look through your Add or Remove Software list in your system control panel and uninstall everything that still referes to Adobe, including AIR, Adobe Media player, Adobe Reader etc.. Once done, run the Microsoft Installer Database Cleanup that you were required to downlaod for the CS4 script manually. Look for lingering instance of Adobe Installer 2.0 and remove them. Then attempt another install. Warning: If you have other working Adobe software on your system, it would be smart to deactivate it. All the previous operations may render the software defunct and you will be required to reinstall.
