CS4 channel mixer-CS3 gone

[rancho...@adobeforums.com]

Did a quick search, couldn't find anything on the forum...

I have just installed (two days ago) Photoshop CS4 Extended as part of the master suite.
I have also CS3 on the same PC.

Now the channel mixer doesn't show the sliders for tint (hue and saturation); the same happens on the B & W adjustment window.

Also, every time I try to run CS3 (shortcuts or the program itself), CS4 comes up instead.

Thanks in advance!

These functions have changed a lot under the hood and may not be compatible with older versions. Never tried this myself, though.

Also, every time I try to run CS3 (shortcuts or the program itself), >CS4
comes up instead.

Check the path in the shortcut's properties. It may simply point to the wrong directory or use a generic system path (%installdir% or such) placeholder instead of an explicit directory name.

Thanks for the suggestions, the first issue was just me misreading
the documentation; the second one went away after another reboot
