Ubuntu – Unable to install photoshop CS6 on Ubuntu 18.04

wine

i have a problem installing Photoshop CS6 using wine (staging ideally nor version with simmilar compatibility).

Thanks for any help! (☞ﾟヮﾟ)☞

TRIED SOLUTION

Installation failed – https://pastebin.com/FkYhRvZX
- installing, winehq-devel, winehq-stable, winehq-staging, wine-stable, wine-stable-amd64, wine-staging, wine64, wine1.6 = no effect, but staging version is able to run the witcher 3.
Failed to load module "canberra-gtk-module"
- sudo apt install libcanberra-gtk-module* = no effect on staging, other versions seems not effected by this err.
Install Photoshop CS6 using playonlinux = Solved the issue, Special thanks to @N0rbert

EXPECTED

Install and run Photoshop CS6 on Ubuntu 18.04

DISCLAIMER

I found many articles about this issue, but all of them seems outdated and not working on this issue and error message doesn't ring a bell for fix..

Best Answer

You should try to install it with PlayOnLinux. It seems to be supported by PlayOnLinux team.
It will install the corresponding (and tested) version of Wine which can launch Photoshop.

Install PlayOnLinux with

sudo apt-get update
sudo apt-get install playonlinux

Run PlayOnLinux (from Games category or from terminal with playonlinux) and click Install then click on Graphics and select Adobe Photoshop CS6,

click Install and follow instructions in the wizard.
After installation desktop-launcher will be created.

Ubuntu – unable to install Photoshop on ubuntu

Step 1. Install the Wine Team Ubuntu PPA

By installing the Wine Team Ubuntu PPA, we can ensure the version of wine we’re using is suitable and up to date.

To install the wine team PPA, execute the following, one by one:

sudo add-apt-repository ppa:ubuntu-wine/ppa
sudo apt-get update
sudo apt-get install wine1.7 winetricks

Step 2. Using winetricks to get install dependencies for Photoshop CS6

Now that we have the most recent build of wine, we can get started on fetching the necessary build packages to run the Photoshop installer.

Here’s the command to issue and pull those dependencies

winetricks atmlib gdiplus msxml3 msxml6 vcrun2005 vcrun2005sp1 vcrun2008 ie6 fontsmooth-rgb gecko

If a few errors pop-up, don’t worry – chances are this install will still work.

Step 3. Running the Photoshop CS6 installer

Now that you have all dependencies required to run Photoshop CS6, you can now run the Adobe setup. Either right click Set-up.exe, or from the terminal:

cd /home/user/path/to/installer
wine Set-up.exe

Although this is for 13.10 it should work on 14.04 too as long as the Wine version is the same.
