I need help with up dats for CS4 if it’s possible, can I ad on the extension for 3D when I boughy my version I opened it before I realized they sent me the wrong one. I have the sixty-four bit edition. All my old plug-ins will not work either they are all 32 bitis is there some way i can make them work. thank you very much
Hi Len. You need help with CS4? How long ago was that? You’re probably past the point of being able to return/exchange it Photoshop Extended. If you’re talking about Photoshop CS5 and you just recently purchased, you should contact customer care to make an exchange. Read this article for details on running 32bit plug-ins:

Some of us Jeffrey cannot afford to upgrade photoshop every time it upgrades(too often) so dont be such a bloody snob, i know people who are still using versions of photoshop far older than CS4.
As far as i am concerned, if a program works it don’t need fixing, so if ‘somebody’ is using Adobe photoshop 6, and buys a Canon Eos 6d, there should be updates available for the program to make the compatibility between the two seamless.
Hi Lee,
That’s perfectly fine if you’re happy with your older version of Photoshop. You don’t need to update. We provide free camera compatibility for versions of Photoshop going all the way back to Photoshop CS2 via the Adobe DNG converter. More details here: http://adobe.ly/ACRandDNG
And, please, let’s not start name calling and keep things productive and positive on my pages, please. Thanks
“As far as i am concerned, if a program works it don’t need fixing, so if ‘somebody’ is using Adobe photoshop 6, and buys a Canon Eos 6d, there should be updates available for the program to make the compatibility between the two seamless.”
You’re joking right? By your logic I should be able to play MP3s on my grandparents gramophone.
i agree with andy. i’m sick of forever updating stupid workarounds to broken fixes that never worked in the first place. by the way, your grandparents gramophone worked and never needed updates.
What if I run CS2?
how simple…thanks for the heads up- even checking the downloads area doesn’t cover it as well!
Im trying to install an update for CS4….however it keeps telling meto close Adobe Bridge. The problem is that Adobe Bridge is NOT open. As a result I cant upgrade. Any ideas?
Please see this post “Error “Installation cannot continue until… Adobe Bridge is closed” | Installation | CS5:”

Please note that 12.0.4 was released on 5/3 and John Nack has a blog post:
http://blogs.adobe.com/jnack/2011/05/photoshop-12-0-4-update-for-cs5-arrives.html
How can I find out what is new in the newer versions and how important an update is? I have Photoshop ver 12.0.1 x32 and Camera Raw ver 6.0.0.205. The IT people here are reluctant to make available each and every update to each and every application, and I understand them well.
I’ve added a link to John’s blog which outlines the key fixes:

I have CS4 suite and a D7000. Bridge nor photoshop will read raw files. Why is this?
Hi Adam, you need to use the DNG Converter for legacy support: http://adobe.ly/ACRandDNG
So now all we need is the $500 to buy Photoshop right?
What if your computer with photoshop doesn’t have internet access? Then what?
You’ll need to find a computer that does, and download the update to an external drive or media that you can move to the computer that’s not on the ‘net:

I have Photoshop CS5. Will be available CS 5.5 for me as free upgrade?
There is no Photoshop CS5.5: http://phtshp.us/5_5_Faq
Thanks for your answer.
I have Photoshop CS5 ME version (Middle Eastern) & i cant update to 12.0.4 through update inside Photoshop
any idea!!
Hi Osama, when you say you can’t update, does the update not show up at all when choose updates? Or does it appear in the list of updates and not install? If so, does it give a warning? If it’s the later, try this: http://kb2.adobe.com/cps/902/cpsid_90228.html
It appears that there is no 12.0.4 update for Middle Eastern version. This update does not appear in the update list. It also does not appear on Adobe website. I believe the Middle Eastern version is abandoned.
What version do you have? If you have 12.1 (as opposed to 12.0.1) you have the same version as 12.0.4.

I administer a computer that has 12.0.0.0 ME, digitally signed April 23, 2010.
No update for Photoshop CS5 ME 12.0.0.0 is available, either via Updater or via Adobe website.
Why standard CS5 update won’t work on that edition?
Not sure I understand your question.
I lise John here, am an administrator of a few computers, all with Photoshop CS5 12.0 Middle Eastern version (for Macintosh)
I’ve tried to find an update to 12.0.4 (or any other update for that matter) and couldn’t find any.
Nothing came up when I tried updating it from the application (using Help->updates)
and nothing appears to be relevant for the ME version in Adobe’s documentation here: http://www.adobe.com/support/downloads/product.jsp?product=39&platform=Macintosh.
Have I missed something, or are there no updates for the ME version? If so, how should patches and other fixes be applied?

I am currently running CS5 under Wiindows XP with a 32 bit processer. I want to upgrade to 64 bit system with correct operating system but am worried about all the plug-ins I have installed under CS5. If I upgrade to 64 bit operating system and machine what must I do about the plug-ins. Incidently all my plug-ins are of the OnOne, Nik, Pictocolor,Akvis, Neat Image, Noise Ninja variety. Thanks a lot.
FIrst, take an inventory of all your third party plug-ins, then visit the site of each of the plug-in developers. Many have 64bit updates, some free, that you can take advantage of.
Even if there isn’t a 32bit version, you could always run the 32bit version on a 64bit OS in order to use the plug-in.

To whom it concerns.
I put Adobe CS5 onto a G5 and My Apple laptop. Recently, the G5 became unserviceable and I got rid of it, however I forgot to deactivate CS5 before it went to the tip. I have now tried to activate it on my new G5, but it is telling me that the limit of 2 has not been disabled etc. So it does not recognise the trashed computer.
I then tried to delete the whole program from my laptop but it won’t recognise that action either. I still have the disk, what am I supposed to do?
Hi Andrish, I had support check the account for the email address you used to post and they didn’t see a copy of CS5 registered. I’ve sent you an email. I’ll need more info to have someone assist you.

I have been using PSCS5 on my iMac & I want to install it on a MacBookPro but I just moved and must have thrown out the disc. Is there any way out of this dilemma? (Other than to buy the full version)&what could I do when the next upgrade comes along & I try to register it?
I have Lightroom 2 & 3 if that’s any help. And I think the last full version was PS3 or 5.
your help would be much appreciated.
If you registered your serial number on Adobe.com (which is always a good thing to do when you first install a product) you can log into Adobe.com and retrieve your serial number. Then you can simply download the Photoshop CS5 trial and enter your serial number.
I’m getting error messages when trying to open a PS file:
first one says, “There was a problem reading the layer data. Read the composite data instead?” And I click “Read composite data” button.
then I get this, “Could not complete your request because the file is not compatible with this version of Photoshop.”
I have Photoshop CS 5 Extended v12.1 – why am I getting this message? I can’t find a newer version than what I have.
hi Kanon,
Where did you get the file from? It may indeed be damaged in some way. Otherwise, the file may not be associated with the correct file type in some way. Can you post more details and a link to the file here: http://phtshp.us/report_a_problem

You shouldn’t. When you register the product, it gets registered to your Adobe ID.
I’m currently running OSX 10.5.8, Photoshop CS4 11.0.2, and Lightroom 3.6. I want to upgrade to Photoshop CS5, but I can’t seem to find a trustworthy place to buy an upgrade from CS4.

Jeff: recently updated to LR4.2 and I use PS CS5. Now I get that dialogue box when going to CS5 from LR, that asks you if you want to have lightroom render your photo and you need to update CR 7.2. Of course you can’t do that in CS5. This seems to happen every time Adobe updates lightroom. It happened when lr4 replaced lr3. Any ideas to fix this?
What camera? What happens if you have Lightroom render the photo? That would be the recommended workflow to use the RAW files in CS5 since the ACR 7.2 update doesn’t apply to CS5.
Your other alternative would be to use the DNG converter to be able to work with both applications outside of the camera’s RAW format.

How can I get Version 12.1 for Photoshop CS5 updated from my Version 12.0.4 on my Mac.
Apparently Apple says the 12.1 version will work with Mountain Lion while 12.0.4 will not.
I don’t know why Apple would say that. They are identical except that 12.1 allows for subscription. Are you having a problem running Photoshop? Are you getting an error?

Thanks. Errant space in the URL. Fixed now.
Is there a 13.02 update for windows users with a perpetual license?
from above
“Photoshop CS6
The most current version for Photoshop CS6 is 13.0.2 for perpetual/boxed licensed product and 13.1 for Creative Cloud members.
The most current version of Adobe Camera Raw for Photoshop CS6 is 7.3 on both Macintosh and Windows.”
Hi Rob,
Sorry. 13.0.1 is the most current version for Windows perpetual license users. 13.0.2 is a Mac only update adding support for Retina Macbooks. I’ve updated my post.
I updated to 7.3 and still cant process the raw photos from my Fuji X-E1. Also my macbook is not letting me preview the files
That camera should be supported in 7.3. That Mac OS has it’s own raw codec, so if it’s not rendering them either, I wonder if there’s a problem with the files themselves. Post more details on the Camera Raw forum, we can help you there: http://forums.adobe.com/community/cameraraw
Is there a raw converter for elements 10 for a nikon D5200
Hi Ivan,
You can use the free DNG converter mentioned in the article above for support of the D5200 in Elements 10. Otherwise, Elements 11 supports this new camera natively.
I have tried to install the dng convertor without sucess it looks as if I will need to update to Elements 11 many thanks for your reply
Is it not possible to get ACR 7.3 for CS5?
No. But the free Adobe DNG converter gives new camera support to CS5 and earlier versions of Photoshop.

Photoshop CS5 12.0.4 update on MacBook Pro with osx 10.5.8
This is what I did: I already had a clone of my hard drive and since I had a clone that means I had a copy of all the fonts in font book(you can probably just copy all your fonts to an external drive). Step 1: go to font book and select ‘All Fonts’ in the Collection column and all your fonts should show up in the Font column.
Step 2: highlight all your fonts in the font column and then hold down the command key as you deselect the few fonts your going to keep(I kept Arial, Arial Black, Arial narrow, Ballantines(bold, light, regular, demibold), Courier, Geneva, Helvetica, Helvetica neue, Lucida Grande, Monaco). This way your computer has some fonts to use since your about to remove the rest.
Step 3: go to the file menu and choose ‘Remove Fonts’ (have patience as it may take a few for the computer to delete them)
Finally: restart your computer or just leave it on like I did and open photoshop cs5 and your text tool shouldn’t crash your system.
Just add the fonts u want to use now or as time goes by. I had over 1000.
Hi T.holy,
The other option is to validate the fonts, remove the corrupt/duplicate versions, and rebid the font cache. This document has tips and links for troubleshooting fonts.

I have been showing an update available for Camera Raw since I purchased CS6 last year, however every time I try to update it the update fails, and suggestions?? I cannot edit my raw files due to this in Photoshop (I have to use Lightroom). I shoot with a Nikon D3100 and my OS is Windows 7. Also I am in the market for a new computer, and all have Windows 8 since I cannot afford a Mac. Will I be able to send my programs over to the new computer or will I have to buy them again??

I just got the RAW 7.3 update for my PsE11, and when I read thru the description, I wonder why I actually need it. The lens profiles don’t help anyway in Elements, and the fixes for iphones, LR and TIFF for bridge ect are irrelevant in my case. Obviously I took it anyway … (keen Adobe addict here), just curious if there’s anything in it I will notice? And (knowing this isnt the thread to ask), when will RAW for Elements include lens correction?
Updates include bug fixes and newer camera support – in this case you may not see any differences. http://blogs.adobe.com/lightroomjournal/2012/12/camera-raw-7-3-and-dng-converter-7-3-now-available.html
I want to open my photos in camara raw using adobe bridge, but not works only show this window:
¨Camara raw editing requires that a qualifying product has been launched at least once to enable this feature. ¨
what can I do?
Launch Photoshop to enable the feature.
I have Photoshop CS6, Lightroom 4 and Camera Raw 7.3. When I open images from a Nikon D7000 in Camera Raw, I have no lens correction data or camera profiles available. In Lightroom, all lens correction settings and camera profiles are available for the same images. Any ideas what I should do to fix that?
I thought I might reinstall Camera Raw but the latest version available from Adobe is 7.1. Why is that?
Are your files JPEG or raw?
Jeffrey,
Why aren’t the Camera Raw updates available from the regular Product Download pages? The latest Camera Raw update listed on that page is 7.1. It seems a little strange to have to look for these on a Blog, so where can we find them on the Adobe site?
We’re promoting the use of Help>Updates… mechanism to install updates – our data indicates customers are much more successful installing updates this way.
Help>Updates wasn’t updating my version of camera raw. It showed as an older version 7.1 or 7.2 I forget which exactly but it was 1 or 2 versions behind. Was able to upgrade via the direct download link you posted on FB. Thanks!
I tried to download the new raw update but I have CS4 and it wont install….I can not get my RAW images to open anymore. Can I get any help?
What camera are you having trouble with? Are you sure CS4 supports your camera? Did you select Help>Updates… in order to install the latest camera raw for CS4?

And also is a little problem on Lightroom v 4.3 i try to use my Nikon D80 in capture mode with him but Lr is not seeing my camera. I can fixed this problem somehow?
Best regards.

Camera Raw 7.4 is not compatible with Photoshop CS5. For the latest camera support in older versions of Photoshop, please use the free Adobe DNG converter: http://adobe.ly/ACRandDNG
There is a Lightroom 4.4 update available. “Capture Mode”? are you referring to Tether? Doesn’t look like the D80 is a supported camera for tethering. http://helpx.adobe.com/lightroom/kb/tethered-camera-support-lightroom-4.html

Using Lightroom 5 beta and exporting to CS6 invokes the question for Camera Raw plug-in version 8.1. Is there a beta ACR 8.1 available?
No, not yet, but stay tuned.
I have two older versions of Photoshop on one computer: Photoshop Elements 3.0 with Camera Raw 2.3 and Photoshop Elements 8.0 with Camera Raw 5.5. (The PS Elements 8.0 came as a package with a version of Adobe Premiere I purchased.) The computer has Windows XP Pro 32 bit installed.
I currently use a Nikon D70 (NEF files) but am considering the addition of a Nikon Coolpix P7700 (NFW files). I want to be sure the NFW files will open in the PSE versions mentioned above.
Can I just download and install Digital Negative Converter 7.4? I will eventually move the PS Elements 8.0 to another PC with Windows 7 installed. Any potential problems with two versions of PSE on the same computer?
You would need to use the free DNG converter to open P7700 in older versions of Elements (Elements 10 or earlier): http://adobe.ly/ACRandDNG

Vista is not an officially supported OS for CS6 (13.0). Installation on Vista isn’t allowed for 13.1 or later.
You were able to provide me with the update for camera raw 8.0 that Adobe was unable to do…thank you so much…
Is there such a update as Camera Raw 7.3 and if there is where can I get it?
If you have Photoshop CS6, just choose Help>Updates… to install the latest version of Camera Raw 7.x. If you have CS5 or earlier, version 7.x is not compatible with older versions of Photoshop. You’ll need to use the free DNG Converter for the latest camera support in older versions of Photoshop.

I had Photoshop CS5 and have subscribed to the subscription service for over a year now, at which time my Photoshop was upgraded to CS6. However, my present version is 13.1.2 x64, and I don’t understand, since I am paying for the subscription, why my Photoshop hasn’t been upgraded to the CC version. I understood that by paying for the subscription, I would always have the latest and greatest version of Photoshop.
Hi Don,
13.1.2 is the latest version of PHotoshop CS6. So you’re up to date on that front. If you want to install Photoshop CC, which you are certainly entitled to do, you can by downloading the Creative Cloud application installer and directing it to download and install Photoshop CC.

Thanks Pete. I tried to update my Application Manager, but it flashes an error message near the beginning of the process (it disappears too quickly to be able to read it), and then after waiting for a couple of minutes for the application to finish updating, it gives me an error.

“Adobe application manager is corrupted and must be reinstalled. Please contact customer support”
I’m going to reboot and try again, and if that doesn’t work, then I’ll have to call customer support I guess.

J’essaye de faire remonter l’info sur un forum Photoshop en francais de preference. Depuis que j’ai remis la version en 14.1.2 de photoshop CC que j’utilise pour mes Nef Lightroom 5.3 je n’ai plus de probléme.
J’ai banni Bridge et Camera Raw car si j’ai le malheur d’ouvrir un raw par bridge et camera raw pour l’ouvrir dans photoshop le pb reviens. Je ne dois plus me servir de bridge…super.. Il suffit de le savoir.
Pour info une nouvelle mise à jour de Photoshop CC 14.2.1 vient de sortir et miracle les bugs sont toujours présents voir pire. Les recadrages dans lightroom disparaissent dans l’exportation ds photoshop, la copie virtuelle 1 apparait sans réglage, les copies virtuelles 3,4..ne s’ouvrent plus dans photoshop….. Quelle avancée…..merci l’abonnement….retour à la case départ.
La suite à la prochaine mise à jour…avec Camera Raw 8.4 release…

Il me semble que vous utilisez aussi des plug-ins Nik Google qui causent des problèmes avec Camera Raw et d’autres plug-ins Photoshop. Si vous désactivez les plug-ins Nik les choses fonctionnent correctement? http://blogs.adobe.com/crawlspace/2012/07/photoshop-basic-troubleshooting-steps-to-fix-most-issues.html#Plugins
I was using CS3 just minutes ago and then closed out, decided to work on my design a bit more and now nothing loads at all. The window around the tool bar and all the way around turns black and when I select any of the tools, I get a message Photoshop has stopped working. I have screen shots as well as my license information. I need to get this back working. I have tried restarting to no avail. HELP!!
Hmm. I would try restoring your preferences: http://blogs.adobe.com/crawlspace/2012/07/photoshop-basic-troubleshooting-steps-to-fix-most-issues.html#Preferences
Sounds like you’re on Windows. Did you update the OS and any drivers?
Bonjour, Je vient de mettre à jour le Plugin Nik software en version 1.1.1.1 Camera raw en 8.4 Photoshop CC en 14.2.1 TOUT fonctionne normalement It’s good…..OUF…
Thank You No Problem now…

Super! Heureux d’entendre que de résoudre le problème.
I am trying to open .ARW files taken by Sony a7R in Photoshop. ARW files are converted nicely by DNG converter 8.3, but the resulting .DNG files are not recognized by Camera Raw. I have Photoshop CS4 and Camera Raw 5.0. Tried to update CR to 8.3 or whatever available later version either directly from Photoshop (“no updates found”) or by downloading installation file (installation does not work, ” this update is not suitable for your product”). What do I do? Thank you!
If you launch the Adobe DNG Converter and click [Change Preferences] in the dialog, then choose “Camera Raw 4.6 and later” from the Compatibility pop-up and convert your files, do they open?
Jeffrey,
Comment modifier lors d’un recadrage l’arriere fond car depuis le passage à la version CC 14.2.1 l’arriere plan est toujours blanc quelque soit la couleur choisie. Impossible de la modifier.
Merci d’avance

I downloaded and installed ACR 8.4 for CS6 from the link provided above, only to discover that it doesn’t work on Mac OS 10.6.8 (note to Adobe: The damn installer should realize that and not perform the install). So I found a link to ACR 8.3 for CS6 (http://swupdl.adobe.com/updates/oobe/aam20/mac/PhotoshopCameraRaw7-7.0/8.3.52/setup.dmg), but it would not install, presumably because a later version had been installed already. It gave me error code U44M2P7. What can I do to fix this?
Hi Dick C,
Sorry about that. Here are instructions to manually replace 8.4 with 8.3 on Mac 10.6.x, XP & Vista: http://helpx.adobe.com/x-productkb/multi/camera-raw-84-support-policy.html#To%20run%20Camera%20Raw%20on%20Mac%20OS%2010.6,%20Windows%20XP,%20or%20Windows%20Vista,%20remove%20the%208.4%20plug-in%20and%20manually%20reinstall%20Camera%20Raw%208.3.
That did the trick. Thanks!
thank you so much!!! finally it works!
however , the file from the link above “Direct download links for Camera Raw 8.3 for Photoshop CS6: Camera Raw 8.4 Macintosh” does not work. it destroys any installation of camera raw. I’ve experienced the same problem as Dick C.
Adobe stated:
http://blogs.adobe.com/lightroomjournal/2013/12/camera-8-3-for-photoshop-cc-and-photoshop-cs6-available-now.html
“Please note that this is the final version of Camera Raw 8 and DNG Converter 8 that will be available for Photoshop CS6 customers on Windows XP, Windows Vista or Mac OSX 10.6”
But the updater does not work. why?
which is the better solution for updating from CR7
replacing the file directly, as described above?
or
first updating to camera raw8.4 and then replacing the file?
–
Before I have seen this site, I wasted hours of installing, cleaning… and searching for solutions on the web or calling the german adobe support several times, who, obviously does not know this site!!! Rather they laughed at me for my little worry, asked weird questions like: why would I want to use cr8? macos x.6? why not DNG? and since I’m using an edu-version (what’s wrong about?) I should not complain. It seems, there are still different classes of customers! This is insulting.
Doesn’t work.
I have CC, latest version 14.2.1 x64 (on Windows), and both updates packages say the update is not applicable for me.
Auto update from Photoshop doesn’t update CR either. Installing DNG converter 8.4 doesn’t update CR either. So how the hell to I update CR to 8.4 for sure?
Hi Martijn, was Ashutosh able to get you fixed up?
Não consigo instalar o câmera RAW 8.4…. diz que não é compatível com minha versão e estou usando a versão Photoshop CC 14.2.1.

Mac OS 10.7.5, CS6. Downloaded and installed CR 8.4 as soon as Updater alerted in Mac toolbar – April/14.

New features in 8.5 aren’t available in CS6, just new camera support. Details here: http://blogs.adobe.com/lightroomjournal/2013/05/adobe-camera-raw-8-support-for-photoshop-cc-and-photoshop-cs6.html

I’m having problems upgrading my Mac 10.9.4 Camera Raw for processing ARW images from my new Sony a77ii. Am very frustrated after searching Adobe, Adobe forums, doing the manual Camera Raw plugin installation and installing DNG 8.6 Converter. Why can’t Adobe provide a simple download link for making this upgrade so I can process my new images in Photoshop CS6 13.0.6 x64, Bridge 5.0.0.399 and Lightroom 4.4?
Adobe’s not new in this business, and clearly, this frustration has been allowed to continue for months without proper resolution for those in this forum.
Did you try selecting Help>Updates? What error are you getting?
Hello,
are there no news about Camera Raw 8.6 ?

The post has been updated with direct links. Thanks.
I just downloaded ACR 8.6 on my computer, using PS CS6. I see absolutely no change and cannot see the before and after feature that is available in the 8.4 version. Was that just for CC or shoud it be in 8.6 for CS6 too. Also the Spot removal does not have any of the new features either.
New features aren’t available in Photoshop CS6, just new camera support: http://blogs.adobe.com/lightroomjournal/2013/05/adobe-camera-raw-8-support-for-photoshop-cc-and-photoshop-cs6.html
Hi there, Is there any way to install Camera Raw 8.2 now? I updated my Camera Raw from Version 7 to 8.6 and found that it doesnt have some new features of the version 8.2 or earlier. Looks like the Spot Removal Brush of Version 8.6 are almost the same. Pls help. Thanks.

Adobe Photoshop CC 2014 has stopped working. A problem caused the program to quit working correctly. Windows will close the program and notify you if a solution is available.
I downloaded and installed the trial version of Adobe Photoshop CC 2014. When I run the program photoshop comes up with a window to continue trial then a window with the above message then it shuts down.
I have a Window 7 Probook 4730, 5 core, Radeon Graphics.
I’ve checked to make sure I have the installed the newest version.
Any help would be appreciated.
What does the crash log say the faulting module is?
ITs a pretty simple question, I think. I just bought a new mac and currently own an HP desktop with windows. The HP has Photoshop Elements 12 and the companion video editor (12). Do I have to purchase new mac software or do I receive some type of credit?

I uninstalled photoshop at one point, have since purchased it but it wont let me download it again because the cloud says i’m up to date on my product! help!
How did you uninstall previously? If you just deleted the app folder, that won’t work. You need to use the uninstaller on Mac or Remove Programs control panel on Windows.
I have photo shop dulex and can’t find out how to make sure the program knows I have 4 gigs of ram now and that everything is adjusted for the vertual memory on auto. and I didn’t really want to pay a lot of money for a new photo shop, I like the old tools on the old photo adobe shop dulex program is there a way to get updates for photo shop dulex 4.0 my old computer crashed and I put it on my new one and maybe I’ll put it back on the old one it is not on there now. Even thought I know I can put it on a lap top also I only have it on one computer right now and I don’t understand what give. I didn’t want to mess with the vertual memory of this new computer to get it to run. For giminy sakes it has four gig. I’ll try reinstalling it and see if that works.
PhotoDeluxe is an older 32 bit application and cannot allocate more than a couple GB of RAM by definition. You’d need to upgrade to Photoshop Elements 13 which is a 64-bit application that can allocate more than 4GB of RAM.

Hi Jeffrey
Can’t seem to find an answer to this. I’ve had CS5 Design & Web Premium plus CS5 Indesign for 4 years, and disliking the new CC assembly, because I’m not a professional user, bought a digital download of Master Collection. This is a new serial number as you can’t upgrade a suite unless it is the same suite. This should allow me to use the CS5 on another computer since it is a separate licence, but wanted to know if I install it on my main 64 bit Win7 computer, will there be any issues, or will they simply coexist in their own directories. It seems to me a few years ago I had a similar situation and newer versions of Adobe programs like Photo Elements, and they simply installed separately. Thought it wise to check first in this case. Can’t see any reason not to de-install CS5 first but curious.
Thanks
Your Master Collection is CS6? If so, it will install separately from you CS5. Yes, you can install it and activate on two of your personal computers.

Is your file a 32bit file? Image>Mode>32 Bits/Channel
Sounds like the files might have got into 32-bit/channel mode. Check the IMAGE>MODE settings and make sure it’s set to something like 8-bit/channel RGB.
I have Photoshop CS5 version 12.1 running on OS X Yosemite on a 27″ late 2012 iMac with an i7 orocessor and 8 gigs of memory. I finally got my Epson 7800 printer driver version 9.33 installed, but when I try to change the custom paper size, the program thinks about it for 15 seconds then quits. There’s something I’m not doing right and don’t know what it is.
Is your driver up-to-date? Just updating the driver may not work. Many customers are reporting the need to delete the driver, delete the printer, install the latest driver then install the printer.
Also, see this document from Apple on troubleshooting printing on OS X: http://support.apple.com/en-us/HT201539
Did it work properly prior to upgrading to Yosemite? I don’t recommend that customers upgrade to Yosemite without doing testing to ensure that it will work for their needs with their current hardware and drivers.
Photoshop CS5 runs on Yosemite, however, it wasn’t designed and nor extensively tested to run on this new OS. I don’t recommend that customers upgrade to Yosemite without doing their own testing to ensure that it will work for their needs with their current hardware and drivers.
If it’s not obvious, you should never upgrade your critical production environment before testing. Always use a separate partition or drive.
I also recommend that you do a clean install of the OS and your software so you don’t introduce any issues through user migration or bring along any incompatible cruft.
I’ve been on the phone with Epson and have according to them downloaded and installed the correct printer driver software.
Do you recommend upgrading to CS6 would there be any advantage? Everything has worked flawlessly prior to Yosemite.
I also did reset the entire print system along with a clean install of the new OS and printer driver.
The only other thing I haven’t done, is a clean install of Photoshop. All the versions I have done have been upgrades starting from Photoshop 3.0. How can I get a fresh clean full copy of Photoshop CS5?
You can download a fresh installer for CS5: http://www.adobe.com/downloads/other-downloads.html
Hey! Windows 10 is going to be a free upgrade. So, all Windows users rush-off and get a ‘free’ upgrade and, guess what, no current Adobe program (and lots of others) will run on it. Or am I being cynical?

Hello,
I just switched to a new computer and deactivated and reinstalled CS6 on my laptop. Everything is sooooo tiny. My Kubota dashboard, my tools, etc. How can I fix this?!
CS6, nor your older plug-ins, have support for HiDPI monitors. The latest version of Photoshop CC (2014.2.2) has support for 200% scaling: https://helpx.adobe.com/photoshop/using/photoshop-experimental-features.html#Scale%20the%20UI%20200%20percent%20for%20high-density%20displays
I have CS6 Photoshop CC and until yesterday had no problem printing to either of my (HP) printers. Now it’s like there is no message getting from Photoshop to the printer. The whole thing freezes up. When I hit File>Print everything freezes and I have to shut down. I’ve done updates to the printer driver, etc. and with CC all updates have been done. What do I do now?
Are you on Windows or Mac? A system hang or freeze requiring a computer restart usually means a low level failure such as a driver (in your case I’d suspect the printer driver is damaged).
All I am trying to find out is as follows; I have an older computer running Windows XP and on it I have Photoshop 7. Up until a few months ago I would automatically receive updates to Photoshop. Then although the Updates continued to come,
there was an Adobe Online Error, File could not be downloaded, http://cgi…tform=ODLLVer=2.8.3.3ADMVer=2.8.3.3, There was a problem connecting to Adobe Oonline. Please check your Internel Settings in your Inernet Control Panel.
Am I not getting updates because WINXP is no longer supported so why do I still get updates every month?
See this post: https://forums.adobe.com/message/5477690#5477690
Once you download PhotoShop off of the Adobe web site then cancel the 10$ a month am i able to still use it or do i have to keep paying the 10$ a month just to use it?
It’s an ongoing membership. You won’t be able to access Photoshop, but you can still manage your images in Lightroom: http://blogs.adobe.com/lightroomjournal/2014/07/what-happens-to-lightroom-after-my-membership-ends.html
I have Lightroom 4.4 but it does not support DNG conversion of Olympus OM-D E-M1 RAW files. I have DNG 8.3 converter running as a stand-alone which works fine, but I want to convert the Olympus files on import in Lightroom, rather than having to go through the stand alone programme first, but can find no mention anywhere of how to do this. I have been through the and it tells me my version is up-to-date and is empty. So how do I update the DNG conversion part of Lightroom ?
The internal converter for DNG in Lightroom 4.4 can’t work with that camera model for the same reason it can’t read the native raw files. You need to use the external DNG converter to convert the files to DNG before Lightroom 4.4 can read them in.
That looks like poor planning in software development. With new cameras and RAW formats coming out practically every month I would have expected the RAW conversion in Lightroom to be a module that can be updated as and when required.
Are we stuck with the same drawback in Lightroom 5?
I have tried to load RAW images from a Canon EOS 350D to my Dell laptop. I have PhotoShop CS2 and microsoft XP. My camera stayed busy for 30 minutes but the six images never came through. Do I need some other software? I see others in previous questions discussing certain ones. What am I missing to be able to do this or isn’t it possible?
Is your camera raw up to date? You should be on Camera Raw 3.7 to access the files from the 350D.

I’m hoping someone will be able to help me. My Photoshop just refuses to open – it will bob up and down but then the program never opens. It is CS5 and I am on MacBook Pro 10.6.8 OSX. Please help..
Have you tried a reinstall? What troubleshooting have you tried?
Downloaded PS15.
Now have confusion…
It’s verified for C.R. BUT, BUT still have PS14 running. I thought the new version would automatically replace the older one.
What do I do?
You people need to make updates a lot more straight forward.
We’re not all techies !
Thanks.
What OS are you on? It sounds like you just updated Camera Raw for CC 2014. Per my FAQ above: If you install CC 2015, by default it will uninstall CC and CC 2014 unless you change the Advanced Options.
I’m on OS Mac 10.9.5.
Don’t think I changed any A.O.
I thought I downloaded PS15 and then installed it by following the prompts.
But all I have, I think, is the latest CR, but not the latest PS.
When I try to re-download PS you tell me my computer is up to date.
But of course it’s not !
OK> I’ve asked someone to follow up with you directly.
Just got a message from someone at Adobe.
They said call back. But there was no number !
Please make this process a better one for the buyer …

Does your system have an AMD Graphics processor? I would suggest rolling back to a prior video driver:
Install the older AMD ”14.4” driver from April 2014 *
* The range we’ve identified includes AMD Radeon HD 5xxx to 8xxx Series graphics cards running driver versions 14.501.1003 & 14.502.1014.
Or simply disable “Use Graphics Processor” in the Lightroom>Performance… preferences until AMD released an update.
Hi!
I’ve updated lightroom to CC 2015 (and adobe camera raw to 9.1.1 – manually) (before I had LR CS) but in “Effects” don’t have Dehaze feature. I’m reinstalled few times Lr and Ps – but don’t have it. (In PS CameraRaw Dehaze works fine). What should I do to solve it? (OS Yosemite)
If you have a Creative Cloud membership, I suspect you have an older process version set. You need to have Process version set to “2012 current” for dehaze to show up: https://helpx.adobe.com/lightroom/kb/compatibility-of-new-dehaze-adjustments.html
Hello,

You are missing the Lightroom CC 2015.1.1 updates.

“Update Failed / Updates could not be applied. This patch is not applicable for you” whentrying to update Photoshop CC 2015?
Thanks for any help
Is this an enterprise licensed machine? Sounds to me like updates are disabled by the admin.
The 9.1.1 is NOT a plugin for Photoshop. It is a standalone conversion module that takes a RAW image from an unsupported camera – in my case a Canon MK5sr – and converts it to something you can load into PS CS6.
This is a time consuming and awkward process. When you have several hundred images to review, you can go to lunch while the time is burned up.
I urge everyone who owns and depends on CS6 to protest this marketing strategy. Give your previous customers a real plugin for CS6.
Sounds like you have the DNG Converter installed. It is not needed. Camera Raw 9.1.1 is a plug-in. It is available for CS6. See: http://adobe.ly/ACRandDNG
I have Photoshop 11, and a Sony a7 camera. When I use this camera in RAW I am unable to down load pictures to PS11. Is there a solution to this problem other than purchasing a more recent version of PS Elements ?
Use the free DNG Converter. Details here: http://adobe.ly/ACRandDNG
I am on a Mac OS 10.9.5 and looking for the best suited Photoshop version. My old Photoshop 7 version does not work anymore since my last update of my OSX. What would you recommend?
Elements 7? If so, Elements 14 is probably your best bet.
I am on a Mac OS 10.9.5 and I am looking for the best suitable Photoshop version as my my old Photophop 7 does not work anymore since my last OS update. What would you recommend?

Thanks for your (as usual) informative post Jeff. Question though: in CC Updater, how do we tell what version will be installed BEFORE installing it (and then manually having to roll it back)?
Wouldn’t it be a trivial mod to include the full version number of updates under “What’s New”?
It’s particularly relevant now with the LR 6.2 issues. Even clicking “What’s New” just says is “Lightroom CC?6 Update – October 2015: This release includes fixes for crashing and performance issues.” (except for the date, this is a next to useless description.)
Thanks for the feedback, Chris, that’s a good suggestion. I’ve pushed for an easier rollback method from the CC app as well.
Hi!
Camera raw 9.4 does not recognize any file jpg,dng or nef,cr2,etc, all files open normally in photoshop but none of them in camera raw.
What can be done?
Thanks in advance
Post more details on the Camera Raw forum, we can help you there: http://forums.adobe.com/community/cameraraw
I can’t open camera raw 9.4 in pcs6 after installation of camera raw.how can fix this problem?
9.1.1 is the newest version of Camera Raw supported in CS6. http://blogs.adobe.com/lightroomjournal/2015/07/update-to-camera-support-policy-in-cs6.html
You can install 9.1.1 for use in CS6 from here: https://helpx.adobe.com/camera-raw/kb/camera-raw-plug-in-installer.html
After the Camera Raw 9.4 Update (Win 7 x64 in the latest version of Photoshop C2015 x64) the radial filter does not work properly. All other tools work correctly. The radial filter can be moved and changed (size and form) only with a massiv delay.
Is “Use Graphics Processor” enabled in the Camera Raw preferences?
Wäre nett wenn ihr endlich in Camera Raw (Photoshop) die Beschränkung der Adjustment Brushes aufhebt. Habe über 170 adjustment Brushes von Lightroom nach ACR übertragen kann diese aber nicht auswählen da anscheinend nur 100 angezeigt werden.
Zudem sollte in Lightroom und ACR die Möglichkeit bestehen, die Adjustment Brushes in Ordnern zu sortieren / zu speichern. Dann hat man in der Anzeige nur einige Folder z. B. für Protrait- oder Landschaftsfotografiere und kann nach dem aufklappen der Folder die einzelnen Adjustment Brushes auswählen.
I had gotten a new computer and had to have Photoshop pro x5 reinstalled on the new one. when it was installed however it no longer had all of my old plug ins. such as my nikon ones. Where can i go to get them back or is it something that i will not be able to get back?
Thank you in advance
Just reinstall your plug-ins: https://helpx.adobe.com/photoshop/kb/plugins.html
I’ll probably never do business with your company again!
I don’t see any registered products or memberships under your account. Is there something I can help with?
I’m having trouble locating a download for Camera Raw 8.4; I’ve only located the DNG converter link. Searches for 8.4 have not been productive, I’ve scoured the forums and blogs for over an hour. Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Just select Help Updates to install the latest version of Camera Raw for your version of Photoshop. If you’re using a version of Photoshop prior to CS6, you cannot install version 8.x.
See this doc for more info: https://helpx.adobe.com/photoshop/kb/why-is-my-camera-not-supported.html
Photoshop CC 2015.5
I cant find the Windows 32-bit Updates.
Where i can download it.
The AdobeCloud show no new Update CC 2015.5 of the 32-Bit Version.
You can find the 32-bit Windows installer here: https://helpx.adobe.com/photoshop/kb/download-photoshop.html
I want the following changes in Adobe Photoshop / Camera Raw.
You can stitch panoramas in Camera Raw, but you cannot apply the adaptive wide angle correction to a RAW file. Please make this possible.
After I have applied the adaptive wide angle correction I want to crop the image and want, that ACR do a content aware fill.
Since the last update has Photoshop a font recognition. You can compare the fonts with the text “sample”. That is good, but not perfect. It makes more sense, to input the selected word and compare it then.
ACR is not able to save more than 100 (?) local adjustment presets. Please change that. I want to save much more presets. But I want to save the presets in “local adjustment folders” that I have created and named (for example portrait, landscape, food, etc.). The folder content must be visible or invisible by a tree-view-structure (+/-). And I want to drag the presets from one folder to another folder.
Content aware crop is good. But if you stich a panorama or do a wide angle correction and do a normal crop (without rotating), then is content aware not working. Please change that.
And I want to save ALL the local adjustment settings, that are under the sliders (brush size, etc.).
I want to create severals folders (add, rename and remove them) for the ACR development presets and display/open/close the folders like a treeview element. I want to copy the presets in ACR into and between the created folders.
If that is not possible I want, that the last used ACR developent preset is shown in the listview if I open a new image / photoshop again. I droves me crazy to search and select a specific development preset each time new, if I start Photoshop new.
I need the 5D Mark IV RAW development in ACR.
Is it possible to get the Beta ACR development for the 5D Mark IV. I know that the beta ist out.
No, but stay tuned. The official release is very near. Stay tuned!
Thank you for the 5D Mark IV and Hasselblad H6D-100c ACR develoment possibility.
Now I need the ACR development for the Hasselblad X1D-50c.
Bonjour,
Je vous écris en français mon anglais n’étant pas parfait, merci de votre compréhension.
Je suis l’administrateur de mes Mac OSX (sierra) dont un qui n’est connecté sur internet. j’ai fait les mises à jours Photoshop CC 2017 et Lightroom CC2015.8 sur l’un mais sur le deuxième les mises à jour manuelles camera raw 9.8 et lightroom CC 6.8 sont impossible. J’ai une fenêtre qui me dit: ” Si vous souhaitez appliquer les mises à jour sur votre machine contactez votre administrateur car celui-ci a supprimé les mises à jour en question”, je suis l’administrateur. Chez Adobe cela correspond à l’erreur 23 mais aucune solution. Avez vous une solution? Merci d’avance. Daika
Install from here: https://helpx.adobe.com/camera-raw/kb/camera-raw-plug-in-installer.html
Merci Beaucoup, l’installateur pour Camera Raw fonctionne parfaitement. Avez vous un installateur pour la mise à jour lightroom 6.8 car le set up sur le site d’Adobe ne fonctionne pas (https://helpx.adobe.com/lightroom/kb/lightroom-downloads.html).
Merci d’avance
Cordialement
Daika
Bonjour,
La Mise à jour de Photoshop CC2017.1 a tout résolu. La Mise à jour de lightroom en CC 6.8 à bien fonctionné tout est OK.
Merci
Daika
After the installation of ACR 11.2 I can see a thumbnail window on th left side, which normally only appear if I want to make a HDR image or panorama.
Please make it possible to hide this window for the normal RAW development as in the older versions.
Thanks in advance
