El Capitan and CS4 Photoshop / Illustrator CS4 / Excel 2008
I held off upgrading to El Capitan and currently still use Yosemite on a MBPro. Anyone using El Capitan on MBPro with:
Photoshop CS4
Illustrator CS4
Excel 2008
These are my main apps that I'm worried about compatibility with upgrade. I don't want to upgrade to Adobe and Microsoft versions of subscription based programs - ones I have do the work I just need very well.
Other more minor things that I use are:
MenuMeters - is not officially supported by El Capitan, but I read a work about 1.9
DejaVu
1.3.9 fantastic
CarbonCopyCloner
GraphicConverter
Panorama360
Acrobat 9 Pro Pro
OmniOutliner 3.10.5
Fetch 5.7.5
I would be interested in the compatibility reports.
There is no guarantee anyone, that it will work and if you find it does not work for you no one will solve this problem, never.
in order to maximize the possibility that it will work, I suggest a clean install with nothing that can be present to interfere.
to do this follow these steps:
Back up your computer with Time Machine
do a clean install of the OS 10.11.3
Since your administrative account to install CS4 and run photoshop
install JAVA 2015 for Mac
https://support.Apple.com/kb/dl1572?locale=en_US
Update CS by photoshop.
Restore your Time Machine data for the remaining data.

Installation of Adobe Creative Suite Web Premium CS4 - No PhotoShop/Illustrator
I have registered for Web Premium CS4 serial number that I'm trying to reinstall on OSX Yosemite. I removed the superdrive in my machine last year, so I downloaded installation program appropriate to the Adobe site.
I launched the program installation and my key entry, which was accepted, but in the list of installation options customized, I wasn't able to select all commodities (Photoshop, Illustrator, Dreamweaver etc.), ancillary products like Acrobat, AIR and so on. I went with the standard installation instead, but this has not yet installed all the commodities.
The re - run the installer, I get only the option to install or reinstall the auxiliary products: Photoshop and others still do not appear as options grayed out now.
My series was licensed student, acquired in 2009. It is true that it is now expired? The software worked fine until I had a game with 30 day trials CC last year, but I don't feel the amount I use the software would justify the cost of the subscription/upgrade.
Any help to restore my Photoshop and Illustrator would be greatly appreciated.
Thank you!
It is likely CC interrupted your ability to use the Creative Suite.

I have Photoshop/Illustrator CS5.5 and work on MacBook Pro OSX 10.9.5. I want to upgrade to El Capitan OSX 10.11.3. My Photoshop/Illustrator won't be compatible?
Long discussion about it here: is El Capitan compatible with Adobe CS5? Apple Support communities
The problem is that once Adobe removes in a CS, but is no longer being updated for the future versions of OSX. This means that if something new in El Capitan causes CS5.5 does not operate normally, you are out of luck.
10.9 is good that at least you can run Chrome or Acrobat DC where 10.9 is the minimum. It is always the test.
Do not go to 10.11 if that's your only Mac and that you make your living with her.

Change my plan of Adobe Creative Cloud to Photoshop, Illustrator and InDesign only
Hello
I am currently on creatively Cloud subscription (one year) complete but want to "downgrade" the plan I use not anywhere near any of the application in the plan. What I'm after is a plan that would include Photoshop, Illustrator and Indesign only, the rest I need, and why pay a lot for the apps that I will never use isn't something I want to do.
If someone could give me an idea where I might find a plan like this, or contact information for Adobe Creative Cloud, I would be very grateful.
Kind regards
Anina

How to charge the PS CS3 and CS4, after the disk (C) computer crash?
Had a computer disk (C) in Win10 crash; desktop computer and need to reload programs! How can I recharge
My PS CS3 and CS4, reloaded actually programs them but need to activate without the need of upgrades. HOW TO MAKE!
If CS3 is an upgrade, it would need a serial number to a version prior to installation qualification and the serial number for CS3 would be eligible for the upgrade to CS4.
If you have your registered Adobe products, you can go online and get them.

I had a plan that was built to use about 5 total programs, mainly Photoshop, Illustrator and InDesign, but now I see not as an option and I'm a graphic artist, not a photographer, and I don't want to have to buy subscriptions to each individually... is possible to retrieve the map I had? (I had to cancel when I was unemployed for a while and couldn't afford to keep paying my membership)
I don't know what you had, but you can buy now is the special plan of photography at a special price and individual programs can do for (I think) $20 each
Go to Cloud Plans https://creative.adobe.com/plans and check price... you CAN do better with the overall plan cloud

I just installed Mac OS 10.11 (El Capitan) and now can't print from Photoshop CS5. All other software installed, including 4 of Lightroom, has not printing problems. Contacted Apple and they said that it is a problem for Adobe.
Help?
When you reinstall CS5, you start to 12.0 there's a 12.0.4 update that includes bug fixes.
You need to directly download this update and before you install, go into osx security & privacy > general tab and temporarily allow app installs anywhere.
