Photoshop CS2 Question

Any Photoshop CS2 users out there experienced any problems installing with Windows 7? Or is a plot by Adobe to force sales of CS4? I really don't have the $1700 for the CS4. This has got my workflow at a halt. :su:mad:

No I have not, but the upgrade from CS2 to CS4 is not $1700, last I checked it was $199.

Thanks, Bro! Maybe I just need to call Adobe. For some reason I get an error message when the program file is created by the software that there are invalid characters. who knows? :confused:

Question is your Windows 7 64bit?

What OS did you have it installed on before?

I had issues installing it on Vista 64bit but I worked it out.

Oh and if you do think about an upgrade... wait a while CS5 is due, as far as I can see, in April 2010.

Sorry I forgot I didn't post the fix :( must be the cold weather playing on my mind!

May not fix your issue... as it does sound different than mine... BUT I had to change the install directory from C:\Program Files (X86)\Adobe to C:\Progra~2\Adobe

When I did that all was well.

Re: Photoshop CS2 Question

Something ive learned with running 64bit OS's, programs that arent specifically 64bit versions or whatever, install to a generic folder on your C drive. In my case, i even had issues with Adobe CS4 and had to install it into an adobe folder on my root. Works better and also runs a bit faster as the generic folders arent search indexed unless you specifically tell it to, all of hte program files folders are indexed by default however.
