Can not open any files CS5  Win 7 64 bit

I can not open any files in Photoshop.  I can open them in Bridge or LR.  If I open a file in Camera Raw and try to go to Photoshop, PS opens and just sits there and looks at me as if I opened the program only.

Is this a new installation that has never worked, or is this a problem that has cropped up recently?
In any case, there are two things you can do that between them have a very good chance of getting things working for you.
1.  As a diagnostic, click Edit - Preferences - Performance, and uncheck (disable) the [ ] Enable OpenGL Drawing setting, then close and reopen Photoshop.  If this corrects the problem, then chances are good that your display driver needs to be updated.  To do so, go to the web site of the maker of your video card (e.g., nVidia or ATI) and follow the links to the driver download that matches your hardware and operating system.  When you've updated the driver and rebooted your system, re-enable the OpenGL Drawing setting (remembering to close and restart Photoshop) then re-test.
2.  Clear all Photoshop preferences to standard defaults.  To do this, press and hold the Control, Shift, and Alt keys IMMEDIATELY after cold-starting Photoshop from its shortcut or menu entry.  If you're quick enough, it will prompt you.  You'll need to go through all the preferences again to ensure any customizations you want are re-done.
Hope this helps!

    Hi when i switch on the macc 41 files open at once can not open any files while this is happing can still use AI & PS and the internet any help thanks...

    Are you wanting to stop the 41 files from opening at once or is this intentional? At what point do they open when you power on the mac or when you boot Illustrator? What OS version are you using?
    If you can  answer the questions above can provide better advice, but you may be running into something similar:

    Same problem here... I finally updated whole system yesterday (last full system upgrade was on 2011-11-26) and same problem appears. File /usr/lib/libwbclient.so.0 was not present in system, so i reinstalled package smbclient - without any effect, then reinstalled libwbclient package and requested file appears. There is no error about upgrading libwbclient in pacman.log (from yesterday system update).. How is this possible?

  • Can not open any files following Disk Repair! Help!!

    Hi. My iMac has failed to boot up a couple of times recently. I have used the  Disk Repair utility to solve it twice. Both times it found errors and repaired them but the second time when I boot up normally again I can not open 99% of my files, from spreadsheets to videos. I can see the files in finder but if I click on them nothing happens. Also Finder behaves strangely jumping back to higher folder levels by itself. I can use my yahoo mail account to attach files to an email, send them to another machine, download them and they are fine so it seems like they are still there but my imac can't understand what they are in order to open them. Any ideas? - I have about 900 gig of files that i'd rather not email on by one to get them back!!! Thanks.  Alex

    You should not be running without a backup, preferably a bootable clone on an external hard drive. Some have redundant backups, one a clone, the other Time Machine, on two different external drives. I have clones on two externals. Drives can fail without notice at any time and everything goes down the drain.
    You can use free/donationware Carbon Copy Cloner.

  • I can not open any files in Illustrator CC 2014 without it crashing.

    Any help is appreciated. I am having trouble at home with my personal Illustrator CC 2014 program. It will open and as soon as I attempt to open an existing file or create a new one it immediately crashes. I am on a PC running windows 7 with all updates for my OS and CC as far as I can tell. Can anyone help me?

    BroWu,
    You may try those relevant things on the list (5) is not) that you have not been through (yet).
    The following is a general list of things you may try when the issue is not in a specific file (you may have tried/done some of them already); 1) and 2) are the easy ones for temporary strangenesses, and 3) and 4) are specifically aimed at possibly corrupt preferences); 5) is a list in itself, and 6) is the last resort.
    If possible/applicable, you should save current artwork first, of course.
    1) Close down Illy and open again;
    2) Restart the computer (you may do that up to at least 5 times);
    3) Close down Illy and press Ctrl+Alt+Shift/Cmd+Option+Shift during startup (easy but irreversible);
    4) Move the folder (follow the link with that name) with Illy closed (more tedious but also more thorough and reversible);
    5) Look through and try out the relevant among the Other options (follow the link with that name, Item 7) is a list of usual suspects among other applications that may disturb and confuse Illy, Item 15) applies to CC, CS6, and maybe CS5);
    Even more seriously, you may:
    6) Uninstall, run the Cleaner Tool (if you have CS3/CS4/CS5/CS6/CC), and reinstall.

    According to the publisher For GoSystem Tax, the 32-bit version of Internet Explorer 8, 9, or 10 is required.  Which means it can't be accessed from an iPad.  This seems weird.  I would recommend you contact the publisher.
