Photoshop Installation (Help!)

Zeeshan · #1 September 3, 2008, 08:00 PM

Before I make BC a help desk for everyone, I would appreciate this favor. :-)

Recently I brought photoshop cs3 extended from dhaka, and everytime i try to install it after 90% completion it sez that "Please Insert PS cs3 to continue installation". I press ok cuz i really dont know what the hell to do....and it gives me the same message again. What can I do?

Ok so how many Cds were there?

Zeeshan · #3 September 3, 2008, 08:10 PM

ok now. explore the disc and get a snapshot and post it here. I think I might be able to help you with this one.

nevermind...i have diff. prob now... i downloaded from the net and installed it. i tried the crack from dhaka and after i clicked activate now, it didnt work although the crack was ok. i had several attempts but now everytime i click photoshop it says product license has expired and just closes it if i open it. i also tried keygen but nothing seems to work...

i think they tightened up their product's system so that overseas crack wont allow activation...

any thoughts?

thanks tonoy bhai for your help.

Ensure that the software is legal. Do not ask for help on warez or cracks on BC.

gopal, i hope you did not spend too much on bootleg software. corel's software might not be as userfriendly as adobe but it is much cheaper. jasc painshop pro version 6 or upwards would also do the job for most 2d graphic design or photo retouching job. do you really need cs3? unless you are a jobbing photojournalist or a pro photographer, or for that matter a serious graphic designer, it feels like an overkill. if you run linux, gimp might well be worth trying out.

i worked as a freelance graphic designer for a number of years and photoshop 7 allowed me to do all i needed.

Thanks Puck, but my issue has been resolved. I actually bought the software from Dhaka and as we all know they are cracks. But...instead of dropping 600-700 bucks on the whole photoshop package recently I bought the Adobe PS Elements and guess what? It includes almost all the kernel of PS3 extended. And it works fine now. And it costs only 99$. Thanks for your help. Mods can close this thread.
