Windows 8 and CS5.5 Design Premium

I got a new computer for Christmas and it is running Windows 8.  Do I need any updates for my CS5.5 Design Premium?  The Adobe Flash Catalyst does not appear to be installing properly and the "Read Me" documentation does not address Windows 8 issues.

Sorry, but Flash Catalyst was discontinued by Adobe, and will not be supported on newer operating systems.

  • Hello, I own a license for Adobe CS5 Production Premium and Adobe CS4 Design Premium for Windows/PC. I am switching to an OSX/MAC system. Is it possible to transfer my licenses to the new platform?

    Hello, I own a license for Adobe CS5 Production Premium and Adobe CS4 Design Premium for Windows/PC. I am switching to an OSX/MAC system. Is it possible to transfer my licenses to the new platform?

    It's possible to transfer licenses but it must be done by contacting a Customer Service representative by phone or web chat. They'll probably have you submit a form.

  • I have Photoshop CS5.5 Design Premium and need to open Nikon NEF files

    I have Photoshop CS5.5 Design Premium and need to open Nikon NEF files.
    I just downloaded the plug in for CS5.5 and it does not work. I put the Camera Raw.8bi file in the correct location as specifiec in the "read me" file.
    Can someone guide me on how to do this, adn make it work?
    Thank you.
    Jay

    so far no luck.
    I ran DNG program for Windows (I have Win 8) and ran the menu to convert
    the files on the same memory card from the camera.   Of 135 files, the
    status column for the first 68 files said "converted," but the for all the
    rest, it says "There was an error writing the file."
    Of the files that "converted," they do not open, and I get the same error
    message as before: "Could not complete your request because it is not the
    right kind of document."
    So, what a mess.
    I get conflicting indications of the version of Photoshop I have. When i
    click "About Photoshop in the Help menu, it says CS5 Extended.    The Error
    message for the dng files says CS5.1 Extended.  Does it make a difference?
    I've been at this three hours now.  It's a pain.   For many years I had no
    problem with NEF files, as I had installed the plug-in as required. This
    time it is not working. So I am not new to this.

  • Download Link For CS5.5 Design Premium (Windows)?

    Hey there,
    After reading http://forums.adobe.com/thread/1006822, I have the same problem but with Windows.
    I am having trouble finding the download link for CS5.5 design premium link, as all links lead to CS6 downloads...
    Any help here?
    Thanks,
    Victor

    You can download the trial installer directly from the link below. You will need to be on a trial download page in order to use the links, otherwise you will get an error message. For example load up the following page: http://www.adobe.com/cfusion/tdrc/index.cfm?product=production_premium before pasting the link into the address bar and login with your adobe id and then cancel the download. Then open the below link and try downloading the application.

  • CS5.5 Design Premium: installer failed to initialize

    Ok, I'm having this problem.  This started because I had to perform a system restore.  I ended having to go back so far with the system restore that all of my Adobe Products(among others) no longer appeared to be installed. 
    So I downloaded Adobe CS5.5 Design premium from a link mentioned elsewhere in the discussions.  Everything extracts fine, but when I execute the installer it always prompts "installer failed to initialize".  I have downloaded the Adobe support advisor.  It shows multiple:
    cpsid_82829s1: "A restart is pending," bootstrapper error has occurred.
    Click here for details and corrective actions related to this issue.
    I have clicked the links(http://helpx.adobe.com/creative-suite/kb/troubleshoot-error-messages-bootstrapper-cs5.html)  below and followed the instructions.  There is no "InProgress" Entry in the registry in the locations provided.   I have also ran the "Adobe CS5 Cleaner Tool " Multiple times and have removed ALL.   I have deleted every directory on this computer that says Adobe.   
    This is a clients computer and we REALLY don't want to wipe and reload(Money/time and all that).  Can anyone help me with this error?

    System restore is a first resort for most people when there is a problem in Windows.  Obviously it wasn't a hit in this situation.  I know a wipe and reload would fix it.  If you read my post you'd see I'm trying to avoid that.  If you have any information that can help me there I would love to know it. 

  • CS5.5 Design Premium Installation Help

    I have downloaded CS5.5 Design Premium through a download link given to me by an Adobe live-chat officer. I wish to re-install it (after losing all the programs from my Mac OS X 10.9). I do not have any installation DVD.
    When I double-click 'Install', a window pops up and reads "Install" can't be opened because it is from an unidentified developer. How can I install the CS5.5 Design Premium Suite?

    It's because of the Security options.
    Go to System Preferences... > Security & Privacy and there should be a button saying Open Anyway, under the General tab.
    You can avoid doing this by changing the options under Allow apps downloaded from:, however I would recommend keeping it at the default Mac App Store and identified developers.

  • We are unable to activate your CS5.5 Design Premium

    Hello,
       I'm unable to activate my CS5.5 product and getting the error as "We are unable to activate your CS5.5 Design Premium" and later it says Please connect to Internet. I tried all the possible steps mentioned in this forum and also followed the steps mentioned under this below document:
    http://helpx.adobe.com/x-productkb/policy-pricing/activation-network-issues.html
    I'm in Home netwok, firewall is disabled, no anti-virus.
    Creating a new Admin account is the only option?
    System Info: Mac OSX 10.5.8 core 2 duo
    My serial key is correct.
    Any further suggestions?? Please help!
    Thank you.

    Hello,
    I too had the same issue and tried all the steps mentioned in the above document. But it failed. I contacted my IT guy who informed that there is no firewall enabled in the modem. I'm using a home pc.
    Lately, I contacted your support team who performed the same steps again and did not resolve the issue. Finally one guy said do something called selective startup on my Windows 7. I'm uneasy with this. He said that it is a part of their troubleshooting steps and can enable them back. I said okay and did it which did not resolve this issue. At last he said to create a new admin account!!! I was not at all satisfied with this resolution but yes I did and it did work! But I'm greatly confused. What could have been the issue? I don't want to create a new account everytime I face this issue. So any possible reasons other than which are mentioned in the document?
    TY!
    Mr. Lowell

  • Adobe CS5.5 Design Premium - What is the most logical order to learn the programs in this suite?

    Okay, so I want to become a real Adobe fan.  I have CS5.5 Design Premium, I am running Windows 8, I have both a digital camera and video recorder and I have a Bamboo drawing tablet. 
    What would be the most logical order to learn the programs in the Adobe CS5.5 Design Premium? 
    Could you provide recommendations for using the online video trainings?

    The most logical order is dictated by your own needs. Sorry to be so blunt, but trying to determine the order of which tools and workflows based on "I'm hip when I know Photoshop." or similar is bound to take you nowhere. Any of the individual programs has more features than even pros who use them every day will ever use. Everyone only uses the part relevant to get the work done. That being so, you could be watching tutorials for the next 5 years every day and still not have learned anything relevant. With that in mind there's realyl only two reasonable ways to learn:
    a) Attend a structured course.
    b) Come up with an idea for a specific project of your own.
    A good place to start would be e.g. creating a photographic essay/ story - shoot some photos, edit them in PS, create a layout in ID, some logo in AI. Then you can look up specific tutorials for techniques as you go along.

  • CS5.5 Design Premium software downloaded; file corrupt error

    I downloaded CS5.5 Design Premium for windows three times, and each time I got an error saying the ZIP file was corrupt.  Where can I get the software, I reformatted my hard drive, I own CS5.5 design premium and I have a serial number, but I don't have the installation disks.  Yes, I downloaded both files 1 & 2.  The 3.6 gig zip file wont open when I run the .exe
    I had a chat session with an Adobe rep, he said this issue was too technical for him to handle and to go to the forums...

  • Installing CS5.5 Design Premium on new Mac Book Pro

    I own CS5.5 Design Premium. It's on my desktop, I need to install it on my new Mac Book Pro laptop.
    Successfully downloaded "DesignPremium_CS5_5_LS1.dmg" entered the correct serial # in the first window, then it asks for it again and will not accept it.

    enter the correct number at the correct time and installation should proceed.

  • Need help downloading entire CS5.5 Design Premium application

    I own CS5.5 Design Premium and I want to download it onto my new Mac. Except, this Mac does not have a place to put my installation CD in. So I am wanting to download Design Premium either in trial version or whatever in which I will input my serial number and thus have full access to all the design premium applications. Yet, I am unable to find the trial version for CS5.5 Design Premium... I have tried to download it via this link here but each time the download does not seem to work/finish. I think it is because it is the full version and believes that I don't have a serial number. I'm not sure. Someone please help me.

  • Adobe CS5.5 Design Premium Serial Number Not Working

    I just wiped my macbook pro harddrive and upgraded to Lion OSX. I bought the CS5 Design Premium last year (in a case). Unfortunately, my discs are unavailable, but I do have the correct serial number. When I downloaded the CS5.5 Design premium trial (to plug in my serial number), it says it isn't valid. Is there a place that I can download the CS5 Design Premium Suite so that my serial number will work? Help! I'm a photographer and I need PS to work immediately!

    Maddiewilbur have you lost your installation media or is it just unavailable for the moment?  If you will have access to the installation media at a later time I would recommned installing the trial of Design Premium CS5.5 and then remove it and install CS5 once you have access to it.

  • While upgrading Adobe Creative Suite CS4 ME into Adobe Creative Suite CS5.5 Design Premium, I get an error saying This serial number is not of a qualifying product, please try another. I used to be able to get a code from customer service but I can't get

    While upgrading Adobe Creative Suite CS4 ME into Adobe Creative Suite CS5.5 Design Premium, I get an error saying This serial number is not of a qualifying product, please try another. I used to be able to get a code from customer service but I can't get to the chat. Please advise!!!!

    MoeGhazal I reviewed your account and it looks like you have have upgraded from a CS4 volume license for Design Premium to a retail upgrade of Design Premium 5.5.
    I also show that you made two purchases of CS5.5 Design Premium but the second purchase was canceled.  Please make sure you are utilizing the serial number which ends in 7886.
    If you are using the correct serial number then it is likely the installer will not recognize your volume license CS4 serial number as being valid for an upgrade.  If you can contact our support team then you can be walked through an unlocking procedure to allow you to proceed with the installation.  You can contact our support team directly at Contact Customer Care.  You may want to try installing a web browser you have not previously utilized.  It is likely a toolbar or some other software application is affecting your ability to access chat support successfully.
    If you are still unable to reach our support team then please verify the information under your account is accurate.  If you can please then update this discussion after confirming this then I can request a member of our support team contact you directly.
    Again I would recommend reaching out directly if possible as it will be the most efficient method of resolving your current error.

  • Can files created in cs5.5 design premium be saved so they open in Photoshop CS2 or Illustrator CS4?

    Can files created in cs5.5 design premium be saved so they open in Photoshop CS2 or Illustrator CS4?

    Yes, you can save compatible files as long as you obey the rules like not using unsupported features such as nested groups, per group clipping masks, smart objects and several other things in Photoshop and use the "Maximize Compatibility" option. Illustrator will simply expand the appearance of objects or rasterize/ flatten them when going back to older versions if a feature is not available or changed in those old versions.
