Not taken CS2 support MAC OS?

I spent nearly a thousand dollars, or even more, on CS2 for my PC back in the day.  Added a few very expensive actions.  Now, Microsoft will not support Vista, so upgraded to a MAC and spent thousands more.  Downloaded the link from Adobe to use CS2 but new MAC is apparently too new and the OS does not support the update online.  There must be a solution where customers do not get screwed out of thousands of dollars. Help me to Adobe here!

I sympathize with you - 'old' software is often established as being inferior, while I also agree that when the old version made just perfectly well, there is not (nor should there be) compelling to upgrade reasons.

Another option is to use WINE on your Mac that runs Windows software directly through a layer of emulation of all kinds (well, actually, it is NOT an emulator).

The advantage is that Photoshop CS2 will run as fast as it would on a Windows 'real' with the same characteristics as your Mac machine. And it's completely free!

Home - PlayOnMac - use your Windows applications on Mac easily!

This will also allow you to

Install wine under Mac OS X

You can also encapsulate Photoshop CS2 in a 'skin' WINE and run it directly on your Mac.

Here are the steps for PlayOnMac:

(1) download and install PlayOnMac.

(2) you may need to install Quartz during installation. This means that you need to connect and only once before you start playonmac.

(3) install Keka (archive) Keka - free Mac OS X file archiver

You'll need to decompress archive Adobe Photoshop CS2 later.

(4) download the Installer WINDOWS Photoshop CS2 here (don't forget to check the box "I agree"):

Download Adobe Acrobat 7 and Adobe Creative Suite 2

To do this, you MUST be connected to your first Adobe account. Then, open this link.

Copy the serial number (select and command + c)

(5) use Keka to decompress the Photoshop CS2 exe file (which is actually a zipped folder) somewhere on your desktop.

(6) beginning PlayOnMac. Click on "install a program."

7) click on 'Install an unlisted program' in the lower left of the window playonmac.

(8) take note of the three instructions that appear.

-leave the unchanged default installation directory.

-do not leave the Installer launch the application at the end of the installation

-If asked if you want to restart Windows, you can answer Yes, but under no circumstances should you restart the host operating system yourself.

(9) click Next a bunch of times, then select "install a program in a new virtual disk".

(10) enter a name for your photoshop cs2. No space! For example: "photoshopCS2.

(11) then of dialogue: keep all uncontrolled boxed and click 'next '.

(12) after a certain time, it will ask you to select the installation file. Navigate to the unzipped Windows Photoshop CS2 installation folder and open the folder ' Adobe Photoshop (R) CS2. Then select the file "Setup.exe".

The windows installation will now begin. When it asks for serial number, use Ctrl + C to paste it into this field. You have an official license of Photoshop CS2, and therefore, you are allowed to download this version of Photoshop. For Photoshop CS2 license servers were fired off line a couple of years, and this serial number will work for this version.

Continue with the installation and click Next twice again. Installation will now begin. This may take a minute or two. Uncheck the "read me" and then click "Finish."

(13) after a while, Playonmac will ask you to make a shortcut. Scroll through the list, and then select "Photoshop.exe."

(14) in the next dialog box, name your shortcut "Photoshop CS2"

(15) repeat these steps, if you wish, to ImageReady.exe. When done, select "I don't want to make another shortcut.

Phew, finished! Photoshop CS2 is now listed in your PlayOnMac dialog box. Run it by selecting the icon and then clicking on "Run" in the left sidebar.

I hope this helps. Before starting Photoshop first, make sure sign you and again (requirement of Quartz).

  • HP Color LaserJet Pro M477fdn: M477fdn not taken fully supported on Mac?

    Hello, we have a new HP M477fdn.

    We have a question about printer drivers and utility software, please: why is there not a printer for the series M477 profile?

    It is a great printer, then sitting our old HP 4050dtn, wired Ethernet connection.  Firmware datecode is 20160331.

    We have two computers running Mac OS X 10.9.5 "snipers".

    We have installed the most recent HP printer software update (hpprinterdriver3.1.dmg) downloaded from the apple.com website.

    We have also installed most of the HP (hp-printer-essentials-L - 4_9_0.pkg) downloaded from hp.com.  It is necessary to download this because the program "HP Easy Start" does not, as several other people have reported on this support forum.

    In "System Preferences"-> "Printers and Scanners"-> the only option to implement this printer is "Generic PostScript Printer.  It works, but it seems to have limited functionality.

    In system preferences, we found the profile to configure fax: "HP Color LaserJet MFP M477 Pro. Fax' and that works as expected.

    In system preferences, we expected to see a profile to set up the printer: "HP Color LaserJet Pro MFP M477" but that does not exist.  Why not?  What do we lack?

    Thank you!

    Suite, for the record.

    With Mac OS X 10.9 "Generic PostScript printer" is the only option.

    The M477fdn works with Mac OS X 10.9, and as seen below, you miss a lot with "Generic PostScript Printer."

    We tried another Mac with 10.11.2 "El Capitan", which, at the time of writing, is the latest version of the OS.  Yet once the program 'HP Easy Start' did not work, so we used the same "hp-printer-essentials-L - 4_9_0.pkg ' downloaded from hp.com.

    The only additional functionality that we see to print with Mac OS X 10.11 is a check box "Printing black & white."

    Your mileage may vary.

    Hello

    Without this functionlity is not supported yet again, from what I've heard.

    The browser moved to Webkit and Blackberry within a company to create the new browser, so the old one went out of the window.

    You might try to write your own system to queue offline using HTML5 and webworks.

    What is N - OS?

    For the problem of camera raw, every new device has its own raw format, and ACR must be updated to include the latter. Happened yet for the d5500 has been added, so you'll just have to use the Nikon software until Adobe gets the info and releases an updated version of ACR. It is not uncommon to be in your situation, if you buy a camera model that was only a month. You just wait a bit.

  • Firefox 3.6.24 has not been installed. Mac PowerPC shows that it IS supported.

    According to the version of Firefox 3.6.24 Notes:
    Operating systems

       * Mac OS X 10.4 and later
    

    Minimum hardware requirements

       * Macintosh computer with an Intel x86 or PowerPC G3, G4, or G5 processor
       * 128 MB RAM (Recommended: 256 MB RAM or greater)
       * 200 MB hard drive space
    

    the MAC PowerPC G4 is supported. I tried to install this 3 or 4 times and it never moved. It acts like it is install but when I check the version I am running, he is always 3.6.23.

    If he has problems with the update or the permissions then simpler is to download the full version and trash the version currently installed to do a clean install of the new version.

    Download a new copy of the Firefox program and save the file on the desktop disk image (dmg)

    • Trash the present application Firefox to do a clean (re-) install
    • Install the new version you downloaded

    Your profile data is stored in the Firefox profile folder, so you will not lose your bookmarks and other personal data if you uninstall and (re) install Firefox.

    • in the system preferences-> iCloud, I made the same configuration in the section option from the photo section - iCloud checks, sharing photos and my photo stream
    • I tried to uncheck and recheck all these nothing helps.
    • This problem only started when I started using OS X El Capitan, which was in March this year.
