First uninstall it.

Then slip in the Photoshop CD and see if it offers a language choice on install.

i have the whole cs3 creative premium installed, so it just came with 2 dvd's

Then use those DVDs from Adobe.

Such a selection is usually done during install. Changing it later it is usually not an option.

If I misread your reply and those DVDs are not from Adobe then it's because you need to supply such details.

yes

sure, sorry i forgot to mention...
I'm trying it right now, I put the dvd in, and it asked me if i wanted to reinstall something or remove something, so i chose to reinstall photoshop but it gave me no option to change the language...
I remember it did ask me when i first installed the suite, but there is now way I'm doing that again, i takes hours and hours.

Sorry.

But maybe you need someone to do this for you. I noted how to try it in my first reply and the only difference is CD or DVD. Do my replies need to tell you such?

Dreamweaver and Photoshop
Jul 29, 2007 5:17AM PDT

Although Dreamweaver and Photoshop are both Adobe products, I wasn't aware Adobe supplied them both on the same CD or DVD.

Where did this DVD come from?

ok...
Jul 29, 2007 5:24AM PDT

at my school (SRJC) they offered a deal that if you bought the creative suite 2.3 for 199, you would get a free cs3 upgrade when it came out.
So i did buy that, and it came with a cd of macromedia dreamweaver appart from the 4 or 5 installation cd's of the 2.3 suite.

But now adobe has had enough time to integrate flash and dreamweaver to it's suite, and my cs3 suite came in 3 dvd's, applications, contents and another one with a training thing.

Presumably

when you install from these DVD's you have to install each separately. What I mean is you shouldn't see both Photoshop and Dreamweaver install automatically.

As I see it you only have the choice Bob said, uninstall Photoshop first, then re-install it and look for the options for the Spanish language.. I would reboot after the uninstall to make sure Windows gets rid of any remnants and the registry update takes effect.

i did
Jul 29, 2007 5:49AM PDT

try that, but i think the only way it would let me choose language is for the whole creative suite....
its ok i'll call customer support, which is great from adobe, and see what they say.

somebody on adobe's forums said i have to purchase a spanish version...hahahahah yeah right


thanks
