• Adobe Photoshop CS3 will work with El Capitan?

  Adobe Photoshop CS3 will work with El Capitan? I am considering getting a new Imac (OS of my current Imac is 10.6.8) and do not want to get involved with a monthly term using Photoshop.

  No, it won't.

• El Capitan & Photoshop

  I installed El Capitan in January 2016.  HUGE mistake, because I was not able to use my Photoshop CS3 since then, and I'm an artist.  I lost business as a result of the loss of Photoshop.  El Capitan does not allow me to install Java 6 legacy, and I'll be doomed if I have to pay a monthly fee for what I already have and have Adobe hostage my work if I stop paying.

  I'm afraid to go to Sierra, because this last nightmare with El Capitan.

  What can I do to get Photoshop CS3 to work again?  If it is not possible, is there another program like Photoshop (and Adobe Illustrator, who also no longer works) is not require a monthly fee, to replace? (I'm looking for this answer for months, and nothing I saw was useful.)

  Alternative to Photoshop, you may consider Pixelmator or affinity Photo.

  They are great and pretty inexpensive. No rental, only buy them on the App Store.

  I think that Pixelmator is $30 and $ 50 for Photo affinity; Pixelmator I 50% discount on a promotion, and it serves me very well; but I'm not a photographer or an artist. Unless there are some Photoshop features that you need, neither of these is likely to do very well.

  As a possible replacement for Illustrator, consider affinity Designer. It looks pretty good, but I have not yet used.

  All three of these programs offer a free trial, so there is nothing to lose.

  Try them out and decide for yourself.

  Hi ramona1962,

  Adobe Photoshop CS 3 is a very old software and the operating system that you are using is the most recent, so there may be compatibility issues that adobe has not tested these applications on newer operating systems.

• Photoshop CS3 - need to uninstall and reinstall but disable is grayed out

  Photoshop CS3 lived happily for a while on my system running Windows 7 32-bit, however, lately, at the closing, it freezes, requiring a Ctrl-alt-del to force her to leave. There are the 10.0.1 patch, later. A re-installation of repair has not fixed the problem, and I'm not aware that I installed everything recently with which he must come into conflict. I tried the various tips and tricks on the forums related to refreshing hide, etc., but nothing works. Something has broken I hope to solve with a clean install. Buy the latest version of Photoshop cloud isn't in the budget... I want to just go back to where I was...

  I think I do an uninstall full of PS CS3, including deleting manually all entries in registry associated with CS3, Adobe, Photoshop, etc + run cleaner utilities. While it is not too happy about it, I'm willing to try. This is the problem, I think I also have to disable everything first to avoid some problem with Adobe to later reactivate the new facility... the problem is part of this which seems to be corrupt are the menu relating to 'disable', 'activate', etc... they are gray, so I have no way to turn it off until I try a complete uninstall.

  A few questions;

  • Is it a known issue and the difficulty for a lack of deactivation / activation for PS CS3 menu options?
  • Is there a way to preserve the activation manually key and delete all the other possible corrupted files and registry entries so that I can do a clean install?
  • Is there another way to repair a damaged installation of PS CS3?

  Thanks in advance for any ideas!

  In the end, PS CS3 became unresponsive and activate - deactivate the menu grayed out again. After trial and error a lot more, the only way to reinstall was to completely erase the hard drive, reformat and install a new OS, etc. Since I had done similar work to solve a CAD program which had problems with a re - install a player, I think that Photoshop CS3 should write files of system flags hidden in some sectors of the HDD outside the volume of Windows OS, not only hidden or obscure entries in the Windows registry, so without a way to manually find and fix roadmap / remove these flags or powerful to remove utility completely all traces of a program, a pavilion of sector or software disk corrupted outside normal windows volume can prevent or corrupt future attempts to re - install the software... that's my theory at least that other software publishers use these plans to try to protect their software licenses; Woe to the poor soul who blocked a drive hard after that software support is complete!

  Because I needed to save the volume as-is due to other software that cannot be easily re-installed, workaround to fix PS CS3 was rather install my last open license for PS CS4, which now is now installed on the same drive and continues to work perfectly.

• In Photoshop CS3 sPSActionDescriptor-> Make (& desc1) error

  Hello

  In Photoshop CS3

  "sPSActionDescriptor-> Make (& desc1)" returns null and code execution breaks while same source works for CS5 and CS6.

  Please help me to resolve this issue.

  Thank you.

  What version of the SDK are you using? My guess is that you use CS6 or previous SDK and the version number of this suite is more recent and CS3 does not expose the version of the suite you want.

  Try changing the version of sPSActoinDescriptor to use kPSActionDescriptorSuitePrevVersion. Make sure you check for NULL for all functions before you use them. If I remember correctly that only PutInteger64 and GetInteger64 routines are for the version 3. You can also add in two versions of the sPSActoinDescriptor and try to acquire the new version and if this fails, try to acquire the old version.

  If this does not work you can try using the CS3 SDK.

• Help! Impossible to uninstall Photoshop CS3

  Had several problems with my Photoshop CS3 workhorse, so I decided it was time to reinstall a clean version. Following instructions regarding disabling (which I later learned was pointless) to uninstall, but uninstalling/installer in my file utility program does nothing... except lie there like a dead fish. Adobe don't suport responded to this version, so I came here for the forums, but did not find the exact issue. Apologies to meet in time and space if it is there and I'm too stupid to find it. I work on a MacBook Pro with OS 10.8.4. I tried to install the cleaning tool, but it doesn't seem to work either. Yes, I earlier thought to restart my computer and will do while I wait for some kind soul to give me a hand here. Thank you.

  Hi Curt,.

  Well, I finally solved the problem in a very complicated way. I loaded Photoshop CS3 from the disc, then I went to my Utilities folder and used the new program of uninstall to remove, apparently part of the problem. The uninstall program quickly disappeared again. I went to Photoshop and tried to open it... serial number and activation code were already entered in boxes that made me think that the old corrupt version was still there. I tried to open an image, Photoshop started loading and I got a "fatal error" page Not having any ideas better I tried to install it again from the disc and reproduced the uninstall application that come to create another alias and reproduced the other element in the file that generated an alias for the configuration application, then I clicked on the alias of the facility and he launched a different Setup program that offered the choice to install or reinstall Photoshop CS3 - a option I had not given before. So I clicked on reinstall and it took at least twice as long as the previous installation. And, I clicked on a Photoshop image loaded without having to ask for a serial number or activation code and it seems to work. I checked on the two things that had caused me problems, and both worked perfectly. I don't necessarily recommend this to anyone who has the same problem, unless they, like me, have tried everything and have nothing to lose. If the cleaning tool worked properly, it would probably be easier this way.  Thanks a lot for your help.

• Photoshop CS3 - Photo opens very slow

  Right so I have an interesting that I hope someone can help me with... I have Adobe Photoshop CS3 (I know, a little behind).  I use CS3 since it's out and love - however recently and unfortunately I have not all time real framework on top of my head, it's incredibly slow to open the pictures.

  In general I drag and drop a picture from my files in Adobo to start my editing based on the photos that I have seen fit to change.  The images come from a Canon T2i - I have them dump on my local HARD drive, then move the photos I want to edit in Photoshop.  The average file size is about 7 MB, so they are not huge.  Now when I open the pictures, it takes, on average, about a minute and a half per image to open it.  Meanwhile, Adobe is inadmissible as in menus, navigation, etc... -I can minimize and optimize, it doesn't freeze or anything like that.  He's here as he tries to open these photos (no more time using 3% CPU).  It opens finally them, no errors.

  This problem occurs if I drag drop in photoshop, open the file menu, be they RAW, JPEG, GIF, PNG, PSD images, size 10 MB or 10 KB in size, etc...

  I know that's not the system, everything works great.

  The system is Windows 7 Ultimate 64-bit, 8 GB Ram, dual core (1.86 ghz each), dual nVidia GeForce GTX 275 (512 MB) graphics card video cards that are running with the latest drivers from nVidia in the process.

  The system is installed on a Western Digital 10 000 rpm HARD drive and I have 6 TB of hard disks (internal SATA) where my files are stored.  I would be hard-pressed to believe that if it is the system.

  I can play graphics intensive games seedless, run Microsoft ICE for sewing in image (without hesitation) and discharge/editing HD videos without problems in Sony Vegas Video.

  I tried to reset Adobe Photoshop by doing CTRL + ALT + SHIFT while the loading and complete to reset.  I turned all the effects of Windows 7 (although this issue has never happened before when I got Windows 7 since the launch).  I put the Photoshop.exe the priority in the Task Manager, allotted 88% RAM to it through preferences of Adobe and made sure both processors get the attention it.  Still nothing.

  Someone at - it experience this before?  Apart from uninstalling and reinstalling (what's next) - I don't see anything else...

  Just to be clear, do you have a command prompt of Photoshop confirming the removal of preferences?  I ask because sometimes people think they have done a reset without seeing this dialog box, and this is not the case.  You must be VERY fast to get Photoshop to notice that you press these keys during startup.  If it does not prompt you, you weren't fast enough.

  Other things to think about:

  • Is your default printer in offline mode?  Is there any printer installed in your system that is in offline mode?
  • You install the Twain driver, but a scanner is enabled disabled or missing?
  • Are there set up network drives, but the network resource is offline or unreachable?
  • What 3rd third party plug-ins you have installed in Photoshop?  Is it possible of them does not initialize correctly?

• Photoshop CS3 Lag click on new MBP

  I recently bought a new 2011 Macbook Pro 15 ", 2.2 ghz, 4 GB of ram. I am under photoshop CS3 and I am facing a very strange problem.
  
  More precisely in my layers palette and my dialogue layer styles, photoshop rowing for about 3 to 5 seconds when a left click of things. For example, I can right click on a layer and go to 'blending options', and the dialog box styles layer dated back almost immediately. However, when I double-click on the right end of the layer (the way I usually raise layer styles), it takes about 5 solid seconds for the dialog box to appear. Similarly, if I use keyboard shortcuts to navigate through the different layers of selection, the selection layer change almost immediately happens. However, when I click a layer, it takes about 4-5 seconds for the layer to select. It is almost as if I am now the mouse button for those few seconds. This same period also happens while selecting the different layer styles in the dialogue of layer styles, as well as selecting a color in the color picker, making it almost impossible for me to choose a color, because if I moved my mouse within these 4-5 seconds as he is trolling the color will change everytime my mouse is currently.
  
  I don't am not facing this problem anywhere else on my computer or anywhere else within Photoshop. By clicking on all the other tools and options works very well. Photoshop is configured to use 65% of my system memory, and it is fixed at 2 levels of cache to use. I tried to disable ' tap by clicking on ' my trackpad, as well as using a mouse usb standard - nothing fixed. This problem no matter how big or small the document I'm working on is.
  
  Does anyone have an idea of what this might be?

  I had a similar problem. Make a right click on a tool would take 5 seconds until I have a chance to select. I worked on it and found that the issue was in fact with another application running on my system, I had. RightZoom app causes lag problems in Photoshop. After turning off RightZoom photoshop works perfectly. If you have not installed a RightZoom then try to disable opengl in the performance section of Photoshop preferences.

• Photoshop CS3 won't open in Windows 7 after works perfectly?

  I just installed Windows 7, 32-bit version last month. I reinstalled all my programs, including InDesign and Photoshop CS3. InDesign does not work well. Photoshop CS3 worked fine until last week. One night Photoshop does not open! I have tried everything I can think of-removal of preferences (it took me three days to find out where he was, and Ctrl-alt-shift does not work) and delete a new program for playback of videos which was the only new program I had installed (just in case), then "repaired" the Photoshop using the original disk.

  Finally managed to get into Photoshop BUT: everything is twisted - colors are off, PS tells me I only 1 600 MB of RAM, when I know that I have 2 GB installed, it seems really strange - everything is gray out checkerboard.

  This is my third post on this issue - CAN someone HELP me?  I've been without my Photoshop for over a week, and desperately need to get that back. I'm just now getting back on track, trying to get my site, and al. After almost a year out of service due to a broken back and the computer crashed. Now, I have my computer back and can not use PHOTOSHOP!  Help!

  In addition, my computer suddenly said "we had to go back to the basic Windows color scheme because there is a program that needs it (?), and then my office is all messed up. I can't get my color management back - in turn computer and turn it on again and then all is well. This always happens after trying to get into Photoshop.

  Please send me an answer because it's getting very annoying and debilitating. ([email protected])
