Can't open existing/create new files after reinstall

I had the trial version installed to test the software and everything was running fine until I started having some issues with my computer. So I ended up reinstalling the trial version and now I can't open existing XLF files or create new ones. Both the "new" and "open" icons are now grayed out.

Hi,
Issuess if Opne and new are grayed out..
Make sure you take a fresh copy of Xcelisu and reinstall the entire application again.
If any other issuess please let me know i am happy to help you...

Photoshop CS6 cannot open or create new file. This happened after running CCleaner

Photoshop CS6 cannot open or create new file. This happened after running CCleaner

Hi, I've been asked to join this discussion. CCleaner is a nice tool, but if you used the Registry Cleaner that came with it, it might have done something to Photoshop's registry entries. There is that danger in using them.
One thing CCleaner does is leave a backup of the registry, or you can use Windows System Restore to go to that point before you ran the Cleaner. Let's go with System Restore. Review the instructions.
System Restore - Microsoft Windows
If you suspect a virus, I'd like to direct you here http://bleepingcomputer.com/
That would be the "Am I infected?" forum.
They have the tools, you run them, and copy and paste the logs that are generated. They are very good at this, but it is super important you follow directions and don't leave until the process is completed.

Issue opening or creating new files in illustrator CS5 windows 7 64bit, "Not Responding"

Issue opening or creating new files in illustrator CS5 windows 7 64bit, program becomes "Not Responding" when opening a file.
I had recently tried a trial version of FontExplorer Pro X, and this issue has come up after the Uninstallation of that program. Any suggestions?

Check for ant third party plugin in the plugin folder....?
Also Check in the new user account?

10.5.5 Can't open previously created Illustrator files!!

I've recently updated to 10.5.5 and now I can't open previously created Illustrator files, prior to the update, I had no problems. I get the error message- can't open the illustration with an OK box which, when clicked, opens the document in preview mode, but I can't do anything with the document!
Anyone else have this problem?

That implies that you didn't preserve a bootable backup/clone as strongly suggested in

Without one of those, your only solution is to try an Archive & Install installation.

Soundtrack Pro crashed. Now can't open or create new audio files.

I was editing an audio file in Soundtrack Pro v1.1. I also had Flash, Parallels and a few other applications open. I plugged in my USB headset. Parallels crashed. Then Soundtrack Pro hung up. Then I had a complete system crash and needed to restart. After restarting I can no longer open Soundtrack Pro files or create new files. All other applications including Final Cut Pro seem to be working fine. I tried reinstalling Soundtrack Pro, but that didn't help. I don't get passed the Soundtrack Pro spash page. I can select menu items such as preferences, help, and even new. However, when I select create new file nothing happens. Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated.

I deleted the preferences file (soundtrack.plist), then restarted the application. That didn't work.

Photoshop no longer can open or create new files

I'm using CS3 on Windows. I had Photoshop open with 2 small PSDs: I individually closed each window. I then tried to open a PNG from my desktop: nothing happens. I'm on a single monitor setup running at my max resolution (1920x1200). It literally looks like it does when you first launch PS and there's no files open. So I shut it down and tried again: same thing. Shut it down and relaunched it: can't even make a new file, it has the exact same behavior: dialogs open and are interactible but after clicking "OK" there's nothing, as if I just opened the app. Yes, it's a legit copy. I did a search and tried the voodoo that people claimed fixed their problem (such as changing the default printer, etc) and none of it works. I had it happen a week ago as well and had no idea how it fixed itself. It just one day started working again. This is so irritating. I guess I'm going to have to use MS Paint now to view my PNGs.

Maybe a dialog is off screen. Have you tried pressing Esc when "nothing Happens"?
Did you really reset your preferences as described in the FAQ?

You either have to physically delete (or rename) the preference files or, if using the Alt, Ctrl, and Shift method, be sure that you get a confirmation dialog.
This resets all settings in Photoshop to factory defaults.

Can't create new files after moving to ext drive, LR4

I moved all photos to a new ext drive (they used to be on the c drive); reformatted my desktop computer; reinstalled LR4.
Now there is no parent file under the name of the ext drive on which I can right click and "create a folder inside....". I am able to create new folders in the existing subfolders.
There is also no way to sync the drive to find a new folder I created via Windows explorer.
My filing system is by month and year so now with each passing month I am not able to set up a new file.
Help!

Can you right-click on a folder name in the Lightroom Folder Panel and select "Show Parent Folder"?
Can you import new photos directly to the desired folder in the desired location?

Illustrator CC(2014) does not open or create new file in Window 8.1 Pro

My illustrator can launch but once I tried to create a new file it would freeze and will not respond anymore.
I also tried to open existing illustrator files it just create a blank white illustrator window and does not respond afterwards as well.
I tried to reinstall the illustrator for times to fix to issue but it doesnt work.
All the other applications (photoshop/indesign...) work perfectly, but obviously there is a bug in illustrator...
Have any other people experienced similar issue and know how to fix it??

Did you uninstall then used the Cleaner tool before reinstalling?
Is a printer connected? Is the driver up to date? Printer turned on?
Do you have any third party plugins installed?
A graphic tablet?
Any other hardware?
Font management? Which one?
Have you already tried setting up a new user account (Admin) and launching from that one?

Photoshop CC 2014 crash when opening or creating new files when running with Cintiq 13HD.

I have a problem where Photoshop CC 2014 crashes when trying to open or create a new file while the Photoshop window is being displayed on my Cintiq 13HD.
When Photoshop is being displayed on my main monitor it doesn't crash.
I'm running Windows 7 (64 bit) and have updated my graphics and wacom drivers to their latest versions and Photoshop is completely up to date. (I'm running the 30-day free trial)

As you can already see, your ATI/AMD video card drriver is crashing.

Can't open or create dmg files!!

I'm not sure if this is related to the recent update or not, I'm at 10.4.8 on an iMac G5 (w/iSight) Trying to open any dmg file yields a Warning message: "The following disk images failed to mount", with the image listed, and the 'Reason' is "Device not configured" Any attempts to create or mount an image via Disk Utility result in the same error. I would be calling tech support, but they're only open when I'm at work
Any ideas?
Thanks

Can someone help me with a similar problem? Safari
used to work fine, but now, when I click on a link in
a webpage that should give me a pdf file, I just get
a blank page with the url for the link showing above
in the address space. There is no download happening
at all. I find I can download them using Explorer,
but I don't want to use Explorer. I have OS 10.4.8
and Adobe Reader 7.0.5. Thanks for any help.
After reinstalling Safari, etc., I tried installing the Schubert plug-in mentioned in an e-mail above. It didn't work until I went into Adobe preferences and turned off the instruction telling it to display downloaded pdf files. Suddenly, voila! I'm downloading files fast into the browser, and can save them fast to my desktop. So, thanks, whoever it was that suggested that little plug-in.

Illustrator crashes on open or create new file

Illustrator CS4 (on Mac 10.5.8) crashes every time I try to create a new file or open an existing AI file.
I've read a number of threads on here, related to similar problems, and did the following (in this order):
deleted the font cache --> didn't help
resolved duplicate fonts --> didn't help
deleted the Illustrator preferences folder/files --> didn't help
created a new user account and opened Illustrator --> Illustrator WORKS
Illustrator seems to work just fine in the new user account I created, yay! But, I want it to work in my user account.
Are there preferences, settings, files, applications I need to check to resolve the issue in my account? Any particular place I should start?
Thanks for any feedback!

What sort of recent changes have you made on the system?
What happens when you try to open files or create new ones? What OS? IS ID patched to 6.0.6?

Photoshop Not opening or creating new files

i have tried intalling and reinstalling twice and it has not fixed my problem. This problem is huge for me because I have so many uses for photshop on a daily basis and this just stops them. If anyone knows how to fix this or is having the same promblem please respond. I have the newest update for Photoshop CC the photoshop i am using it also does not work with he 64 bit or the normal version.

Operating system and version? Has PS worked OK before this problem, and with the 14.1.2 update? When did the problem start, and can you link it with anything else happening to your system? If Windows, have you tried a System restore to a date before the problem started? (as a last resort)

Can't open MS Office programs & files after Security Update 2007-004

if anyone has faced similar problem or found out a solution to fix this, please share with me. Thanks in advance.

So this issue really isn't specific to the Office products, but all applications?
I suggest you first run Disk Utility's repair permissions feature. If that doesn't work then reapply the update. You'll have to download it from Apple's support pages.
Finally, if that doesn't work then try posting your question in one of the other Apple forums more related to Mac OS X issues such as <http://discussions.apple.com/category.jspa?categoryID=160>.
Good luck! bill

Can't Access Time Machine Backup Files After Reinstall

I just completed a clean reinstall of Mountain Lion. Obviously I've missed some important step(s). When I enter Time Machine, I can see that there are older back ups by the dates on the right hand side of the screen, but they are greyed out. I'm confident the files are there, the issue is being able to access the files.
I've seen some notes about "reassociating Time Machine" with my "new" computer with some terminal commands, but I get lost with the instructions I've read and it sounds like if I do it wrong there is a pretty good chance I could really cause some damage. For the time being, I've turned off TM, but the dirve is still mounted and available.
For some reason, I was able to access and resotre my Documents folder - I just can't get into all the folders/files. Prior to the reinstall, I did visually confirm that I could see and access all my backup files.
Any help is appreciated.
Thanks.
