I updated my Photoshop CC 2014 to 2015 yesterday and immediately noted that my scripts don't work any more.

I use python for scripting and have built a UI for my script. The script has worked well with Photoshop 6, Photoshop CC, Photoshop CC 2014, but now it doesn't. I get error messages like "object has no attribute 'Preferences'". Many other attributes give error messages as well.

I had Photoshop 6 installed on my computer as well and I thought I could use that instead but the update seems to have deleted version 6 as well as the previous CC versions. Since I have a purchased version of Photoshop 6, it should not have been deleted since I am supposed to be able to continue using it as long as I want. I have a Photoshop 5 on my old computer and even that works without problems.

How can I reinstall version 6? Can I revert back to CC 2014?

Hi Rolf,

it's unrelated to your original question I know, but how do you use Python for scripting PS? Sounds interesting - do you use it just for building a UI, interacting with the OS, or PS?

Thank you!

Hi Davide,

Python is the programming language I am most familiar with. The UI is for

me just an extra bonus. I write all my script for PS in Python. You can

google for python and photoshop to find more information.

I am currently totally lost because I can't write scripts for Ps 2015 in

Python. I haven't given up hope yet, however. I hope I will find a way to

use Python with PS. If I succeed, I will post the solution to this thread.

In addition to using previous versions, if you have the CS6 license key, you can just download the trial image and enter license key

Download Creative Suite 6 applications

I'm pretty sure that you will need to contact Adobe support. I had a similar issue when I discontinued my CC license a while back. My CS6 stopped working because the CC had converted my activated perpetual CS6 license to a subscription without asking me to. It took several re-installations and hours of oversees tech support to get it working. It was a major pain. If I remember correctly, the tech support person had to login and run a special program to release the "subscription" from CS6.

You can reinstall old versions with the CC application manager. While it has CS6, that's the subscription version. Sites like Prodesigntools.com have links for old versions of PS.
