Can not open adobe photoshop

when I am trying to open up any of my adobe sites a box pops up and says"The program can't start because PatchMatch.dll is missing from your computer" and "The program can't start because ExtendScript.dll is missing from your computer" does anyone know what either of these statements mean or what to do about it?
Thank you

Nobody can tell you anything without proper system info or other technical details like what version of PS. Typically such errors either mean there were issues during install and the components are missing or they are being blocked by security tools, wrong file permissions, insufficient user privileges....

  • I can not open adobe files. mainly ones that end in doc. I purchased the 19.99 to convert .doc files

    I can not open adobe files that end in .doc. I purchased the 19.99 to convert doc to pdf and I still cant open. I get an error reading.

    Hi,
    Which Adobe Service did you purchased?
    If you have purchased CreatePDF please visit: https://createpdf.acrobat.com/SignIn.html
    Sign in with your Adobe ID and password, and then convert your word doc into PDF.
    Please let me know if that works.
    If you have Adobe Reader, you cannot convert .doc file to .PDF by drag and drop.

    Hi all. I've been working on some artwork in photoshop CS5 and saving periodcally but after closing the file I can not open it back up. I keep getting the message "could not complete your request becasue it is not the right kind of document." I haven't a clue what can be causing this. Im using windows 7 if that matters or not and I started it on the same computer that I am now having trouble with. I'm not openeing another file type in photoshop in other words, it was started and saved as a photoshop document and now it won't open. Please help if you have any suggestions I would greatly appreciate it. Thanks.

    Getting the wording just a little wrong means people who don't know about the setting won't likely be able to find it...
    Assuming you have a recent version of Windows, this will make it possible for you to see the actual file extensions:
    Click Start and type folder options into the search box.
    When Folder options comes up, click it.
    Click the View tab.
    UNcheck the entry for [ ] Hide extensions for known file types.
    After doing this, restart Photoshop and try your save again, making sure your file extension matches the file type you're saving (e.g., if you're saving a Photoshop (*.PSD;*.PDD) file, make it .psd).

  • I can't open Adobe Photoshop CS6 because it is not "supported" on my type of Mac

    For some reason after downloading Adobe Photoshop CS6 from the Creative Cloud it is saying that I cannot open the application because it is not supported by my type of Mac. Is there a way to resolve this? The Mac is on Mac OS X version 10.6.8 I thought that this was enough to run the cloud on. So I'm confused.

    Here is an Apple help article on this http://support.apple.com/kb/HT3696.
    If Photoshop is saying it is "not supported" on your computer then unfortunately that is the situation. I would post in the Photoshop forum here http://forums.adobe.com/community/photoshop/general if you have more questions or concerns. They will know all of the details about Mac hardware support for Photoshop.

  • Can not open Adobe Bridge in Photoshop CS2

    Adobe Bride is supposed to be included with Photoshop CS2, but there are no links to it when in Photoshop.  File>Browse does not go to Bridge.   I downloaded a new copy of Bridge from Adobe and installed it.  There is still no link to Bridge in Photoshop, but there is a Bridge icon in the start menu.  However, double clicking the icon gives the error "The program cannot start because the file libagluc28.dll is missing from your computer".    However, a search for that file finds it in three locations: C:\Program Files (x86)\Adobe\Adobe Help Center, C:\Program Files (x86)\Adobe\Adobe Photoshop CS2, and C:Program Files (x86)\Adobe\Acrobat.  Any ideas as to how to start AdBridge?

    Adobe has disabled the activation server for CS2 products, including Acrobat 7, because of a technical issue. These products were released more than seven years ago, do not run on many modern operating systems, and are no longer supported.  
    Adobe strongly advises against running unsupported and outdated software. The serial numbers provided as a part of the download may only be used by customers who legitimately purchased CS2 or Acrobat 7 and need to maintain their current use of these products.

  • I have been getting a "Runtime Error" and can't open Adobe Photoshop Elements Editor

    We are using Adobe Photoshop Elements version 9.0.3 (20110328.m.11320).  For several weeks it has not been possible to open the Editor, although the Organizer opens as usual.  We get an error message that says "Runtime Error! Program: ...\Adobe\Photoshop Elements 9\PhotoshopElementsEditor.exe This application has requested the Runtime to terminate it in an unusual way.  Please contact the application's support team for more information."  What can we do to correct this problem?

    Thanks, Ken!  I have to reply by e-mail, as the Forum site has been down
    for maintenance since last night.
    I am running Windows 7 Professional SP1.
    Uninstalling and booting should be straightforward.  I saved the
    following files in my Downloads folder from my initial installation of
    Adobe PSE 9.0 on 4/22/11:
    Adobe_Photoshop_Elements_9-AkamaiDLM.exe (355 kb application)
    PhotoshopElements_9_LS15.exe (1,200 kb application)
    PhotoshopElements_9_LS15.7z (1,838,546 kb WinRAR archive)
    Will these suffice for reinstalling the program?  Can you tell me how I
    should go about the reinstallation?  (I tried to find a page to download
    the Adobe PSE 9.0 program on the Adobe website, but could only locate a
    patch for 9.0.3, which I think must already have been included in the
    original installation.)
    Also, there are four folders, corresponding to four catalogs, in
    C:\ProgramData\Adobe\Elements Organizer\Catalogs.  Will those survive
    the uninstall/reinstall process?  Should I back them up just prior to
    uninstalling to preserve them for restoration after the reinstall?
    Finally, should I back up the 9.0 and Organizer folders in
    C:\ProgramData\Adobe\Elements Organizer for restoration as well?  And
    the C:\ProgramData\Adobe\Photoshop Elements folder?
    Thank you.  I am grateful for your help!

  • I can't open Adobe Photoshop Elements 12.

    Whenever I try to open it I get a message that says "There was a problem starting c:\users\(username)\AppData\Roaming\newtext.me\nengine.dll" What should I do to fix this?

    Hi,
    Try creating shortcuts direct to the applications and use them each time.
    Create shortcuts pointing to the following files:-
    Organizer: "C:\Program Files (x86)\Adobe\Elements 12 Organizer\PhotoshopElementsOrganizer.exe"
    Editor: "C:\Program Files (x86)\Adobe\Photoshop Elements 12\PhotoshopElementsEditor.exe"
    Please let us know if they work.
    Good luck

  • I installed a new hard drive and now can't open Adobe Photoshop Elements - what do I need to do?

    My hard drive on my iMac crashed 2 wks ago, and I now have a new SSD harddrive. I had an image of everything from my old hard drive, but Elements won't open. What to do?

    Because you are running lion.. FCS 6 is a Power PC app and Lion doesn't support Power PC anymore.. So you can't install it.. Three options..
    1. Revert back to Snow Leopard.
    2. Purchase FCP X... 
    if you can't stand FCP X
    3. Call apple directly, 1800-MYAPPLE and ask to purachse FCS 3 for $999... (its FCP 7)
    I just got FCS 3 today through apple phone sales..
