Leopard Photoshop CS3 Photomerge won't

Photoshop CS3's Photomerge is the best I've seen, but since installing 10.5.1 on G5 PPC iMac, it won't work. Tried Adobe's tips (smaller file sizes on pix to merge, resetting RAM lower, etc.) but no luck. Still have a G4 15" PPC PowerBook with 10.4.11 and CS3 - everything worked perfectly. Old message from Adobe says that they and Apple are working up a fix for most known issues (photomerge not mentioned).
Best to keep the the PowerBook Leopard-free for now? Any ideas?
Thanks,

I was able to run the Photomerge with three pictures on an Intel-based Mac with Mac OS X 10.5.1 and Adobe Photoshop CS3. I have version 10.0, not the current 10.0.1 version, which version do you have? I've never used that feature before, but the automatic detection option worked really well. I've been doing it manually for years!
Very cool! I don't know if I have 16 pictures I could link together, but I probably have at least six I can try later. (I suppose I could try the manual feature with 16 pictures that don't actually go together.)

Printing No Longer Available Option Mac OS X Leopard Photoshop CS3

I run Photoshop CS3 on my Mac OS X Leopard. In the past few weeks, Photoshop will no longer let me print .psd files that I have created. The "Print..." option remains greyed out and the shortcut also will not work. Photoshop will still print modified .jpg files, and printing is not an issue on any other program I run.
I tried restarting my computer, running the Software update and running the Adobe update, but none of these attempts fixed my problem. I am still able to print older .psd files that I previously created using the same program.
When previewing these .psd files with printing issues on my desktop using the spacebar, the images appear small, grainy and darker than the correct image, rather than the full-size preview. Again, this is not an issue for any other files on my computer, including older .psd files.
It appears to be a Photoshop issue rather than a printer issue, any suggestions would be much appreciated. Thank you!

What is the bit depth of the files that don't print.
Not knowing what printer you have I can only guess the PSDs that don't print are 16 or 32 bit.

Photoshop CS3 Extended won't recognize QuickTime installation

Hi,
using Photoshop CS3 Extended, I tried opening an animated GIF today without success. After some forum searching I found I had to import it as video into layers.
When I tried that I got this message:
"Could not complete the video frames to layers command because QuickTime version 7.1 or later is required."
I have QuickTime installed, the newest version (checked for updates and found none), and it works normally. This computer is just about 2 months old, so it's not an out-of-date installation of QuickTime, either.
I am running Windows XP Pro.
How does Photoshop determine whether QuickTime is installed or not?
Any other ideas?
I'd rather avoid re-installing programs (especially QuickTime) if there's an easier fix for this.
Thanks!

Richard.
There was a problem with QT 7.4 and the Digital rights Management segment that conflicted with After Effects and Premier. There was an almost immediate update from Apple to 7.4.1 (6?) which fixed this problem, there may infact have been another update since then although from memory this was just an itunes update.
I'd update to the latest version which will more than likely fix the problems. If as you said you have the latest version then try uninstalling Quicktime and reinstalling it rather than using the apple updater.

Any suggestions?

Photoshop CS3 actions won't save

I'm learning to create actions in PS.
Unfortunately, when I've created an action on my desktop computer, the action lasts for the session only and is not there when I restart PS. I've done this several times, and the result is always the same. The actions remain for the session and work fine, but disappear after a restart.
This doesn't happen on my backup copy on a laptop, but I do my PS work on a desktop and it's a problem.
Thanks for any help.
EdB

Your problem may be due to improperly loading the actions. Did you double click the file to load it into Photoshop?
If so, this tutorial on how to load a photoshop action set will help you.

Installed 10.6.3 and now Photoshop CS3 won't open

Ever since I upgraded to Snow Leopard, Photoshop CS3 hasn't been the same. Whether it is the OS or the new drivers to manage my printer and my scanner, I don't know.
Today, I had been working on Photoshop all day and at some point the computer got slow and it told me it had a software update. I decided to save everything I was doing, quit Photoshop and install Mac OS 10.6.3 hoping it was the answer to all the glitches.
Instead, Photoshop won't open at all anymore. I have restarted, shut down, repaired permissions, reinstalled the program, updated everything and it still won't open. It's the only program affected from my design suite as far as I can tell, but it's also the one I use the most!
Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Also happened here with all of my CS3 apps on my Mac Pro. Also, Quark XPress v8.16 exhibited the same crash at startup. *_Not Good_*! Lightroom loaded properly with no issues. Haven't had a chance to run through every app yet, but as a Graphic Designer, those are the ones I need to work. An interesting tidbit was that this did NOT occur on the installs of CS3 and Quark XPress on my MacBook, which also was updated to 10.6.3. Just the Mac Pro.
Re-installed CS3 suite and Quark XPress to no avail. Also cleaned font caches.
I "fixed" this by re-installing Snow Leopard from the DVD which brought me back to 10.6, which just installs over itself, keeping all your apps and settings intact. I then downloaded the older 10.6.2 Combo Update, and installed that, which brought me back to the point I was at prior to 10.6.3. I also ran a software update after the 10.6.2 update, and installed all the found updates EXCEPT for the 10.6.3 update it found.
No problems as of yet...
I'll report back if any do arise.
My gut feeling is that this is some sort of color profile or font issue.

yo I am having the same problems, any new suggestions on how to get photoshop to work. I have tried everything.
Capt. Lou, welcome to discussions. However, you need to be a little more clear.
When you say everything, what everythings have you tried?
What I have done:
Reinstalled CS3
Repair Permissions
Boot into Disk Warrior and Repair Disk
Boot into Leopard disk and run Disk Repair
What I have not done:
Archive and reinstall operating system: Leopard
Remove 3rd Party Ram
Issues I am having besides CS3 not opening:
Missing PDF tab on Print Dialog
Computer won't go into sleep mode
Mail won't remember junk email
I don't have any of these problems on my MBP. Go figure.

Snow Leopard and Photoshop CS3

My wife is currently running Leopard 10.5.8 along with Photoshop CS3. Are there any compatibility issues that anybody is aware of if she upgrades to Snow Leopard (and higher)? She runs a number of add-on Photoshop-compatible actions as well and wants to be sure these won't be impaired if she elects to move to the newer OS. Thanks!

She may have a few problems with the various aspects of CS3 according to this very useful compatibility guide.

It seems CS4 is the better path to take using Snow Leopard.

Installing Adobe Photoshop CS3 on Leopard (headaches really...)

Hi,
I'm a Tiger user and i have another Mac that runs Leopard. I have Photoshop CS3 on a Disc and used in to install on my mac with Tiger, then when i try with the mac that runs Leopard i run into some issues.
One Error Message states :
"The application Photoshop CS3
(beta10.0x20061208) [k] (Universal) quit
unexpectedly.
When i open the .Dmg on the disc (or when i drag it to the HD) i get the following message :
The Finder cannot complete the operation because some data
in "adobephotoshop1012-06.dmg" could not be read or
written.
(Error code -36)
If anyone can help me it'd be greatly appreciated. like i said i've done this before successfully on a freshly updated Tiger. this problem is new to me. thanks for reading.
-Ryan

*"The application Photoshop CS3*
*(beta10.0x20061208) [k] (Universal) quit*
unexpectedly."
For starters, you're using a beta version, dated Dec 8, 2006...which is not final and still contains bugs... CS3 was not released until Sprint 2007. and second, based on it's file name, your application appears to have been illegally "Kracked"...hense the [k].
If you do in fact have a valid legal license of Photoshop, you should probably post your question on Adobe's forums:

Bridge won't open JPG files in Photoshop CS3

I changed my preferences to remove the check-box "prefer Adobe camera RAW for Jpeg and TIFF files" , restarted Bridge and tried to open a JPEG from bridge directly into photoshop. But double clicking on the image in bridge opened "paint".
So I change the Bridge preferences back to Prefer ACR for JPEG again, restart Bridge, and then bridge tells me that it cannot find Photoshop CS2. CS2 is not even loaded on this machine anymore.
So then I go to the file type associations preferences and "browse" to the CS3 version of photoshop, restart bridge, and double click on a JPEG and it again says that CS2 cannot be found. I change the association again using the "browse" to CS3 and then it opens the image up in "Paint" again.
Why won't Bridge open JPEG's in ACR anymore?
Why won't bridge open JPEG's in Photoshop CS3 anymore?

Bill, thanks for the reply. But I do not think that the file associations is the answer here. If I am using bridge to open files in ACR or Photoshop, I do not believe that I need to change the windows file type association. I have other PC's where the file association is not photoshop and bridge works fine opening these files. In fact, when using windows explorer to navigate JPG files, I do NOT want photoshop being opened to preview these images. On my other PC's, I can both preview JPG's using windows picture viewer, and open the JPG's via bridge in ACR. Furthermore, Photoshop CS2 is NOT the application listed for JPG's in the folder options in the control panel. So the problem that I have here has something to do with Bridge or perhaps something is corrupted int he files.
The reason why I suspect a corruption, is that not all files behave in the same manner in bridge. Some files with the same extension open as I would expect, while others do not. I did not realize this fact when I made my original post.

Why won't Photoshop CS3 in Lion?

Immediately after upgrading to Lion, I'm apparently not allowed to run a very expensive program: Photoshop CS3. This alert claims I'm not connected to the internet but I clearly am. Anyone else seeing this? Is there a free update from Adobe? The Lion Installer did not list this app as being incompatible prior to upgrading my Mac.

My Photoshop CS3 won't open either, but it's telling me PowerPC Applications are no longer supported in Lion. I can confim with 100% certainty Java is current as of today. I uninstalled then reinstalled PS3, and it still won't open.
Thoughts?

Colour Management Issues with Leopard and Photoshop CS3

Hi Everyone,
Since I have installed Leopard I am having colour management issues with Photoshop CS3 and my Canon i9950 printer.
My screen is calibrated with a Spyder and I used to ask Photoshop (in 10.4.11) to manage colour when printing and used the Spyder profile. Everything came out as I saw it on screen.
Now in leopard when I do the same thing everything comes out too yellow on the print. If I ask Photoshop to let the printer manage the colour it is too red. If I use the default colour management (photoshop managing the colour and it choosing the colour space it is better, but still too yellow).
Photoshop gives the hint to turn off colour management in the printer but there is no option for this and it also said the same thing before of course (when it worked in 10.4.11).
Any ideas?
Thanks.

I'm having exactly the same problem, only my printer is a Canon Pixma iX4000. The colour is all bleached out, it looks exactly like when you've accidentally printed an RGB file on a CMYK printer, and at first I thought that was what I had done, but it isn't. This is very frustrating, I've spent all day going through the manuals, recalibrating etc, but no luck. This is a brand new Mac Pro and printer, but if its not going to print what I see on screen it's just expensive junk.
I wasn't sure if the problem was Leopard or the printer or CS3...

Photoshop CS3 Crashes After Leopard Install

I tried upgrading to Leopard years ago from Tiger but downgraded back because of this same issue. I know I need to upgrade my system so I just installed Leopard again and again the same issue with Photoshop CS3 arises. After the install I am unable to open Photoshop, it just crashes. I imagine someone has to have an answer to this by now. Please help!
Thanks.

Problem when launching Photoshop CS3 in OSX 10.5.1 (Leopard)

When I launch Photoshop CS3 it quits and a message comes: "can't launch Photoshop because file is locked. Go to 'File' > 'Get Info' and unlock the file". But the file is not locked. Any idea? Thanks.

Thanks for your comments. I tried to look for the locked file but I didn't succeed. In the Console message is:
"03/12/07 21:30:11 [0x0-0x5f05f].com.adobe.Photoshop[998] file://localhost/Applications/Adobe P"
I can't find where the problem is. (And can't work with CS3 on Leopard).
Thanks for your help. Andy

Photoshop cs3 on Leopard 10.5.5 printing issues

Our photo lab recently updated both our computers and the Adobe Photoshop program. We are now using Photoshop cs3 on iMacs with Leopard 10.5.5. We have an Epson Stylus 2200 and the print quality is now very poor. Can anyone recommend a printer that produces high quality prints on this system with this software?

Yes, I have updated Photoshop and also contacted Epson...the newest driver is for mac 10.4...they are no longer making this printer and this is the only available driver.
