To open “Adobe Photoshop CS4” you need to install the legacy Java SE 6 runtime.

I have updated my system to Yosemite and when I try to open Adobe CS$ i get this message. To open “Adobe Photoshop CS4” you need to install the legacy Java SE 6 runtime. I have followed the links and installed Java for OS X 2014-001 includes installation improvements, and supersedes all previous versions of Java for OS X. This package installs the same version of Java 6 included in Java for OS X 2013-005.


When I again try to open CS4 I get the same message To open “Adobe Photoshop CS4” you need to install the legacy Java SE 6 runtime.


Can anyone assist please?


Thanks Colin

AppleTV 2, Other OS, software is 4.2.2 2003

you may need to uninstall CS then reboot, try to see if it allows you to update your JAVA


APPLE'S JAVA

Java for OS X 2014-001


SUN MICROSYSTEMS JAVA

then reinstall CS4

I ran into something similar with CS6 where it needed to come off and go back on

technically CS4 is not supported by Adobe and reported to be problematic with Yosemite.
