Release notes:

The Adobe Photoshop 9.0.1 update fixes a number of problems discovered after Photoshop CS2 (9.0) was released.

The most significant fixes in the CS2 9.0.1 update release include the following:

€ Photoshop no longer hangs for several seconds when using painting tools with quick strokes.
€ A runtime error that could appear when mousing over a high-res document with the Brush tool has been fixed.
€ Documents containing a large number of text layers now open more quickly.
€ Problems related to palettes (slow redraw, palettes go white, possible crash) have been addressed.
€ TIFF files from certain scanners can now be opened correctly. € After editing an image in Photoshop CS2 via the TouchUp tool in Adobe Acrobat? software, the image no longer gets repositioned. € XMP metadata from AI and PDF files is now retained in Photoshop. € Slow performance when toggling layer visibility has been fixed. € Info palette numbers are now displayed and updated when moving a curve point in Curves via the cursor keys.
€ Problems opening certain TIFF and PSB files greater than 2GB have been resolved.
€ The Merge to HDR command now functions properly when using high-ASCII characters in user login.

PROCEED with caution. Instead of "downloading" from this link, I went directly to adobe.com and searched for current/all updates for Photoshop. The update listed here IS NOT available from the Adobe site. I trust Adobe so I will by pass this.

Sorry about that but I finally located the update on Adobe's site. My bad for the following advice.

The link given by Pawliger is the correct link, exactly where Adobe sends you for the update.

Hi All, don't wish to start any arguments, but when I get CS2 to check for updates it tells me "none available".

Forget about having Photoshop tell you about or download and install updates. Adobe never had gotten that to work right. It is best to manually download and install any updates. There are actually many of them if you look at the security updates and other little things.

The "check for updates" function within Photoshop CS2 is not working as expected. We expect a future update will address that as well. Meanwhile, manually obtaining the update from adobe.com is the way to go.

Anyone else get the irony of:

"The "check for updates" function within Photoshop CS2 is not working as expected. We expect a future update will address that as well."

They plan to have an update to fix the auto-update which doesn't currently update. Got to love it!

Thanks guys, will now install the manual download!!

Cheers,

Geoff.

Is there a way to find out which updates have been applied? When I installed CS2 (in March, PC and Mac versions), it downloaded a few MB of updates on its own. Is the security update included in the 9.0.1 update? (Yes, I can see the security update file is larger than the 9.0.1 update, but you never know...)
