Hello there, I was wondering if this photoshop cs3 is ready to install or if it needs an old version of photoshop or if you provide codes to run it,

I was able to install it without a previous version just needed serial. Not an upgrade package. The real deal.

To Pat and J.Crosby, In my opinion, do youself a favour and don't go anywhere near Photoshop Elements 6 (PSE6). I paid for an upgrade from an earlier version and have wasted my money. The program crashes continually to such an extent it is unusable. From my googling on the internet this is the experience of numerous other people. There are no solutions I can find on the Adobe site and although these complaints seem to have been posted since PSE6 was first brought out there are no upgrades or patches to fix what are a myriad of problems. A number of people have complained that the program worked initially and then started continually crashing and that has been my experience. I won't be buying more Adobe products until they show a bit of customer care and isuue fixes for this mess. I have downloaded and installed a trial version of Pro Photo X2 and so far it seems stable. PSE6 may have more bells and whistles but that is not much use if they are unusable due to continual program crashes.

I have a system built for Photoshop CS6. ASUS Sabertooth 990FX AM3+;AMD FX-8150; 24gigs of DDR3 Ram; PSU 750 and ASUS 2GB GDDR5 card. It performed as I expected. But what made it even more impressive was when I bought a second card and joined the two in crossfire mode. I was impressed how "smooth" it performed running Photoshop. It should be more than adequate for graphic editing with single card.

If you are running Photoshop cs your graphics card should be able to handle Intuous 3 I think. Check with Wacom to be sure.

If you can't afford to buy Adobe CS3, you can always download CS2 from Adobe for free: http://www.digitaltrends.com/computing/how-to-get-photoshop-for-free/

Hi Kateyn, I have use the photo side of this software for 10+ years to do any number of editing. I would say it is not a 100% match to Photoshop feature for feature, but it is all that a sophisticated non-professional needs in a photo editor. You can do so much with it and the learning curve is not so steep. Has very useful tutuorials and plenty of online forums with great user interaction. It all comes down to price, features and your intended use. It is a wonderful application for the price. I like to have fun editing my photos and to this day, I have never felt a need to spend the extra money for Photoshop. I hope this helped. :-)

Works well with Photoshop. Compatible with Windows 7 & 8. You can probably download a driver for 8.1. It uses four cartridges that can be bought on line or at an office supply store.

The pre-installed software is the standard version of works and a spread sheet. This computer has windows 8 and Adobe is still working some bug out. Other software I don't know about. I had to buy word and excel and any games you want you will have to buy and download unless they are free. So this model doesn't come with much software. I hope I answered your question. Jim

I would imagine that it is... I don't really create any graphics. But I do have an older version of Adobe Photoshop Extensions that I will install, and maybe play around with.

Don't bother. Highly specialized apps (like those in CS3) you want to run natively. And the mac version is very good. Call Adobe; they DO offer a cross-platform upgrade (there is cost, but it's significantly less than buying a new product). You'll be much happier in the long run, and save time running them natively.

I purchased Photoshop several years ago as a student and have purchased an upgrade as a non-student. It all worked just fine. Unless Adobe has changed their policy, the "student pricing" is simply a price break for the student and not a "lite" version of their software.

Hi there, I've contacted them in the past, and they were able to walk me through an issue, but that was years ago. I've been updating for FIVE hours now, and the update, while continuing, still isn't finished. I'll be calling CS in the next few days if that download doesn't go through, and will update my review for you.

I was having many issues with Printshop on Windows 8.1 after the update. I could not get it running after many e-mails back and forth with Printshop support. I gave up after awhile. I recently tried installing Printshop 3.5 Deluxe after more recent updates to both the Printshop program and Windows 8.1 and now it works fine. Of course, both of them will probably say it was the other program causing the issues.

I use it for Photoshop, and it seems to work very well. Photoshop itself has issues with Windows 8, but that's another issue.

Yes, I use it with Win 7. The only problem I have is that it sometimes doesn't open properly. I'll click on the icon, and it will act like it is opening, but the program doesn't appear. I just open Task Manager and close the Photoshop program, and then reopen it. I have noticed that if I open a graphic file by telling it to "Open With... Photoshop", it always seems to work fine.

After you install it to your computer you'll have to use it with a photo software for example I have Photoshop Elements 11{any program should work}. Photoshop Elements will recognize it , and just use it as pen instead of a mouse. oh by the way This does come with a earlier version of Adobe Photoshop Elements{I'm not sure which one, because I didn't install that version , because I already have PSE 11}. Comes with something that looks like a UBS Card, that you plug into your Computer UBS...I leave mine in all the time. I don't have the manual on hand right now, I have to look for it tonight when I get home but, if you need more info...Please let me know.

Yes a PC version of any software will not run on a Mac, unless you install a Windows OS on the Mac. Then you could run your PC version of PhotoShop on the Windows OS on the Mac. This would be cheaper than buying a new version of PhotoShop BUT would add a level of complexity to using PhotoShop. If you don't want to do it this way I believe the basic level of PhotoShop Creative Cloud is $10 per month. So instead of paying $650, or more, for another PhotoShop CS6, you would buy 65 months of Creative Cloud.
