A restart usually works for me, just save and reload software?

Stupid messages!

Otherwise, you might have to install, I get a lot of these strange messages specifically on Graphics software. Also, check for a patch and install it!

Did you buy it?

If so uninstall, reinstall, and make sure you enter the correct registration detials when it asks. This can fail for no good reason but you can at this point get a number wich you can use to call adobe support. They're aware of this issue and can provide you with a software key.




If not, the software will decide that your personalization information is invalid, and it won't work.

Actually, my pet Art teacher burned me a copy, complete with all the codes. (naughty i know)
If i uninstall it, reinstall it, it will work, but the next day it wont.

You will probably need some kind of crack, but I am not supporting your illegal actions in anyway way and suggest you remove it

'Naughty' is flicking the V's at your geography teacher while their back is turned.

Photoshop Elements is about £50, Gimp is free.

And yes, it is comfy up on this horse, thanks.

Which part of it doesn't work because you're trying to be a thief, don't you understand?

Climb through my window and try and nick my stuff, you'll get a golf club over the back of your head. Adobe just say nope, this isn't yours and log your IP address.

No one here is gonna help you steal and rob.

I spent over £750 on my Adobe design suite CS2, and it all works fine!

Although, I must say this software is by far and way the most intrusive I have ever owned! At work, we're on ISDN, so NO- I don't want to download your damn 102 MB size patch files for now!!!
I turn the 'scan for updates' off in the program, but it still insists I update!!

I have registered, I have activated, now bloody leave me alone Adobe!!!!

Mattley, how come the same copy works fine on all my mates PCs then?

Not the sort of statement I'd make on a public forum, for anyone to read!!!

Surely they can't expect you to have all this boody expensive software at home?
Tell them when they send a cheque your homeworks will be completed
