Photoshop

[gstuff]

I downloaded the photoshop trial for mac from the adobe website and i then installed it, i then realised i had installed it to the wrong part of my hard drive, so i uninstalled it, then tried to reinstall it again, but this time it would not work and it does not install the app, it just tells me that there was an error and photoshop CS3 could not be installed. Does anyone know what the problem is, is there anyway that adobe can block the program from being installed on the same computer more than once?

I'm sure Photoshop has created a "marker" in the registry, to stop multiple installations.

is there any way i could get rid of this?

Clean the registry with CCleaner?
Use advanced uninstallers like Revo uninstaller?
This should solve your problem.

is there a mac alternative to this?

Oh, I realised now you have Mac. Sorry, I'm not a Mac expert but i dont think macs have registry

mmmm... I missed that as well. To make up for that why don't you try an excellent alternative to photoshop, and it's free.

By the way, if you still want to go with the trial version of Photoshop then we have a user called "tlarkin" who is the resident expert with MAC's. I'm sure he could help you.
