If you installed Photoshop CS, you also installed Imageready. These 2 programs complete eachother.
Imageready is (was) used to do webstuff, animated gifs, rollovers… Photoshop couldn’t do those things, except for some basic web/html design.
In later versions, Imageready was integrated in Photoshop (sort of). So no, it’s not a good idea to ‘delete’ either one of them. If you didn’t install Photoshop CS, you are using an illegal copy of the software.
In that case, reformat your harddrive(s).
Would you mind explaining how the CS got to system without installing to be illegal?
The man said he restored from a backup which means he installed it before he backup, and if you know the backup program can restore the backup.
I thought the "reformatting the harddrive" thing might give a clue to the irony intended.
In any case, I don’t know what the OP did (and i guess neither did he/she) I also did’t say she/he’s a thief. That’s what you imply. It’s for him/her to judge what the scenario is.
And nothing was said about restoring from a backup either. At least I gave some explanation about what Imageready is! And that’s what this tread is about.
Fred, From my perspective and to keep the `judge` busy my photoshop 8.0 is genuine.
You’re full of shit.
But to cut a long story short I have several old hardrives, not all are mine but I use them to store pictures (as a back up) as my main drive is only 40GB small by todays standards but sufficient to run the programmes I use. A few years back I did have older versions of photoshop and that and probably other programmes are still on some of them.
Dumping a drive into your PC with programs on it and they’ll NEVER work. Programs, especially expensive programs like Photoshop, make hundreds of registry entries, without them the program will not run.
Quite frankly I don`t have much of a clue about computers other than how to
No need to state the obvious.
use photoshop and spreadsheets, I wouldn`t know how to set a PC up from scratch or indeed even how to get connected to the internet.that all gets done for me and I am happy with that.
So you’re incapable of a task my 12 year old neice does regularly. That’s pitiful.
How or why I appear to have 2 versions of PS on this drive I don`t know and
You don’t. It’s been explained several times and you still don’t get it.
do not really care, it is there and so be it. My interest in writing to this forum was to find out how to deal with one of them so if possible it could
It’s a newsgroup, not a forum.
be deleted (uninstalled) to save my limited space on my main hardrive.
That question has been dealt with and I am grateful for the help given to me.
Even though you didn’t understand a fucking word you read.
I pity your computer… hell, I pity your toaster.
