Why my filters disappear in Photoshop CS2?

I was thrilled to have Photoshop after losing my computer and software in a flood.  I came here and software DLed the Illustrator CS2 and InDesign, Photoshop, and After Effects.  Although I have not seen a problem with Illustrator and InDesign (again), after working perfectly for about a month in Photoshop...  More than half of the filters stopped working!

Is there a way to retrieve my fully functional Photoshop?  It's cost Me money - I can not reproduce the styles for the customers.

Then...  Help?

Sincerely,

Solar Amaterasu.

I'll have to guess a whole little bit, because you're using CS2, but...

Are missing or grayed out filters?

Don't know if it was in CS2: preferences > Plugins > view all names and groups of filters.

  • How to activate the filters in the new version of Photoshop CS2?

    I downloaded and installed the revised 'legacy' of Photoshop CS2 using the new activation code for a new facility to clean.

    On the surface, everything is OK, except...

    (1) you are prompted several times to record whenever he opens

    (2) seems impossible to activate or import filters and other files in the folder < Goodies > and the program tells me that < MSVCRT10.dll > is missing when it is there all along in the c:\PhSp_CS2_UE_Ret\Goodies\Optional Plug-Ins\Ffactory > folder

    My main problem is that in this new version I am unable to get all the features of most of the Photoshop filters that I used to be able to access and I have no idea what to try next!

    Anyone got any ideas please?

    Cordially = BOB

    If the filters that don't work are filters made with filter factory or filter plant itself which does not work, are just grayed out in the menu filters filter?

    The factory filter only works with 8-bit/channel and RGB color documents, if your other files as psd or hair could be 16 bits/channel or one color other than RGB color mode.

    With one of the affected files open and you go Image > Mode, which menu items are checked?

    You can post a screenshot so that we can see the Panel layers and image.

  • I tried to install Photoshop CS2 but it fails, why?

    It's always the same loading point, "control packets" and then it crashes, why?

    I got the idea from here-> Grab Photoshop and CS2 for absolutely free right here and this isn't a virus, promise

    In any case, I installed Photoshop CS2 on my other computer so it could be that reason, but I don't think.

    Help, please

    First of all, the article you link to is WRONG. Adobe do absolutely NOT 'free' CS2 - download of replacement is lawfully accessible to customers who have already owned a copy of the CS2 applications and could not reinstall them because the activation servers have been shut down. If you don't have a genuine license paid for CS2 back in the day, you are not allowed to use it. Period.

    In addition, CS2 is old. It was not designed to run on modern operating systems.

  • I used to have adobe photoshop CS2 on my computer and had to reinstall, why doesn't it let me install it now?

  • Photoshop CS2 began to have questions about the other windows.

    About 2 months ago, I started to notice that Photoshop CS2 has started to have problems with me open or do it before all other windows, such as Explorer or Chrome for example. This is what my PS normally looks like:Clipboard01.png

    and if I try to bring another program, it will act as if I clicked on the start bar and the PS is more picked up (you have to click the program again to interact with him)

    Then when I go to color/clear/do almost anything on the Web, my tools will vanish like this:Clipboard02.png

    and reappear when I click on the gray background of the PS window. They may not be disabled.

    Sometimes, and I don't have a screenshot because I can't reproduce right now, the new program (Chrome, Explorer, etc.) is displayed, but the windows tools will remain.

    I dealt with it for a while, but I would like to first of all streaming my art and I won't continue to happen. I like to use CS2, so please don't recommend just other programs unless it is just absolutely not repairable.

    I ran CS2 on this computer since September of the year last with zero problems, so I don't know why it started

    Thank you, I'll check the wire, but I tried to reset my default preferences, and that seems to have fixed.

  • Photoshop CS2 - remove photo gradient bar

    Hello

    I am fairly new to Photoshop, and I have the free version of Photoshop CS2.

    I tried to find a solution to this problem, but I don't know how to describe it better terminology, so apologies if such an issue has already been resolved!

    I recently took a video of some flashes and extracted the best frames, but the problem is the amount of light the lens exposure caused some odd gradients bars appear in the middle of the picture!

    I tried adding a layer of white-transparent gradient mask to the affected area, as shown in the image below...

    FRONTAFTER

    .. .but as you can see, it has not completely disappeared, and I wonder if there is a better way and more precise of removing...?

    Thank you very much.

    Most likely, you will have to go and manually edit the images. The best way I can think of is to use a large soft brush to a low opacity set to lighten the mode. Sample from outside the and go over the gradient. This will lighten the dark areas but not lighter and lighter areas untouched.

    Here's a super quick edit - could be better.

    I want to install Adobe Photoshop CS2, but when installed the app asks activation and do not recognize the serial number when I checked it and it's OK. I do not understand why this error.

    I can't activate the application when I have a valid license. This is ridiculous.

    Can someone help me? I would be very grateful.

    These filters work best when the colors of foreground and background in the Toolbox are different.

    Try pressing the D key on your keyboard to set the default values of prominent black and white background, and then try the filter > sketch > photocopy.
