Photoshop CS6 - failure to open after 2 year's use due to adobe message.

An Adobe message to confirm a trial of PS CS6 Extended has suddenly appeared to prevent me from continuing to open my photoshop application ( non extended) which has run OK for two years. No other options are given. How can I get rid of this message to enable me to use application? Adobe Chat suggested deleting some adobe files but this did not work and then they suddenly discovered that CS6 was no longer supported on Adobe chat! Can you help me?!

Help gives merely version 13.0 x64 (windows) But I have found a solution & I think the following gives the sequence:
message first appeared after my computer's card reader stopped working pro tem, so I downloaded the card from the camera via USB using Bridge CS6 downloader, something I have not had to do before (ie from the camera). The message above gave only one option, but of course, CS6 extended or otherwise is not now available from Adobe anyway. By attempting to open Photoshop CS6 offline the message option to license the product now appeared as well with requirement also to sign in my Adobe ID. By entering the licence serial number again of my unextended product (although it was already recorded as licensed on my account) and my adobe ID I was then immediately able to open Photoshop. Possibly some piece of software recognised an unusual procedure (piracy prevention)? Anyway it now seems to work perfectly again.
Many thanks JJM for your interest and I hope this account may also be of use to someone else out there!

CS photoshop suddenly won't open after 5 years

CS photoshop suddenly won't open after running perfectly for 5 years. I do not have the original install disc.
Any suggestions? Apple and Adobe Tech folks could not help.

Cris (and Tai Lao)
there was no installation of a scanner (my Canon LiDe 500F scanner
has worked just fine for years) or camera driver (altho I had
recently downloaded some pix from my nikon onto iphoto) BUT— your
idea was brilliant!--disable Twain, which I did and ps launched
successfully!!
Now, as Tai Loa predicted, I can no longer import the scanner thru
ps. Given my current work crunch that's not so terrible, but how does
one access a scanner without using ps? If you have had just about
enough of me and want to pass on that question I'll understand.
I am ever so grateful to the two of you for making my ps usable
again, but it's midnight here in NYC and I have to pack up my tent
and look for your scanner question reply at the crack of dawn
tomorrow. It's been an exhausting anxiety-ridden day but I'm relieved
and grateful that there are bright people like both of you out there,
interested and willing to help. Many thanks.

Photoshop CS6 won't open new or existing files

I've had Photoshop CS6 for several months now and never had any problems. Until today; I can no longer open files or create a new one using either method: (File -> New) or (File -> Open). I restarted my computer this afternoon and am wondering if an update took place on my system. From what I've read in these forums, that's usually the culprit.
One thing that concerns me is the System Info. It seems to be saying that I have Windows NT, which I do not. Here is the complete System Info output:

If anyone has ANY suggestions, please let me know. I am a web designer and depend heavily on Photoshop working properly. Thanks!

After posting the question, I realized that NT is just the family of OS (Windows 8.1). I seemed to have solved my problem... for now. I went to startup programs and disabled a couple of programs from opening on start. They were related to the Spoon.net application. After restarting, things seem to working fine again.
I hope this at least helps someone else.

Adobe Photoshop CS6 Cannot be opened because of a problem

My Photoshop (from my CS6) on Mac would not launch all of a sudden. I get the error title same as the title of this post. I tried clearing my launcher chance as well as re-installing. I am attaching the error report and two screenshots here. Any help would be appreciated.

Reinstalling resolved the issue. In case others are having the same issue, here is some more detail on this.
After a hard drive failure, I had to restore my machine from a Time Machine backup. After that Photoshop would not launch. All other Master Collection CS6 apps were working, except Photoshop.
When I tried to reinstall from the DVD, while installation was in progress (several steps after supplying and verifying my License Key), it would give an error message that my copy of the CS6 is counterfeit and installation would stop.
After talking to Adobe Tech Support on the phone, I uninstalled Photoshop, downloaded the trial version of CS6 from online (here is the link - Other downloads), then installed Photoshop from this download instead of my factory supplied DVD. This time, the installation went through and I was able to launch Photoshop after installation.
No activation was requires since other CS6 apps were already activated in the machine.

Photoshop CS6 will not open files

Right after rebooting my computer (Windows 7 Pro) I can open one photo file in CS6 using any normal method of opening a file in Photoshop. After closing that file I cannot open any more files using any method such as>Open Recent, File>Open, or right click open using Photoshop, by selecting the file, double-clicking to open it etc. I also cannot open a file in photoshop CS6 from Lightroom 5 using Photo>Edit In> Photoshop CS6. Everything works in Lightroom when I use Photo>Edit>open in CS6 Photoshop opens but the file doesn't.
If I reboot my computer I can then open one file using any of those methods, but when I try to open an additional file it will not open. I have run through all the opening Photoshop without plugins suggestions and all the other suggestions about what may cause this problem which I have found on Photoshop Help and Support Center and nothing has worked.
This started while Lightroom 4.4 and CS6 were on my machine and had been working well for months. Then, suddenly, I couldn't open anything in Photoshop. I know of no changes made to the computer. After trying various suggested solutions I reinstalled Photoshop CS6 and things seemed to be working so I went ahead with updating to Lightroom 5. The same problem popped up in CS6 again. Lightroom 5 and Lightroom 4.4 have both worked with no problems and still do. Photoshop seems to be the problem. I've also run an antivirus which found nothing.
Any suggestions?

Others have this same problem. See discussion at Re: Photoshop CS6 does not open or create files
I finally got CS6 to work but have no idea what I did that caused it to start working properly again.

Photoshop CS6 will not open any graphics files

Photoshop cs6 will not open graphic files, i have reset the settings. I get to see all the files in preview but when I try to open a file nothing happens, no error messages, no file opens, nothing.
When I use bridge I try to open the file with open in photoshop cs6 but again nothing happens. I found that if I reboot my PC photoshop will work correctly until I shut photoshop down but if I reopen it later before rebooting my pc now graphics files will open.

Help! Photoshop cs6 crashes at startup after 13.05 update

Hi,
I urgently need help, please!
I just now tried to update my Photoshop Extended CS6 to 13.05 and now Photoshop CS6 won't open at all. It crashes at startup, no matter how many times I try to open it. Rebooting hasn't made a difference. Not only that, all previous updates have disappeared as well, and in Finder I see that the program shows as 13.0. So this update attempt has wiped out my previous updates to boot.
I should add that I have never, ever had a problem updating Photoshop before (I've owned it since version 5.5, way before CS came around) but something has obviously gone very wrong here despite the fact that throughout the update process I never got an error message.
I am desperate now to find out how to remedy this.What steps can I take to make the program operational again? I don’t even care if I have to skip the update for now. I never would have ventured on this update if I'd known there was the slightest possibility of jeopardizing the functioning of Photoshop.
What do I do now? I leave on an extended travel journey in 24 hours and desperately need Photoshop and Camera Raw to work so I can process my photographs.
I've been searching for solutions online but can't find any clear instructions. Some people mention an Adobe Application Manager but I have not had an error messages so I'm not sure how to proceed.
If anyone is knowledgeable in this area, I'd be most grateful for your input. Thanks in advance!

Delete what? Photoshop CS6? Not uninstall? Please clarify. Thanks.
Never just "delete" an Adobe application, never just drag it to the trash!
Always use the Adobe Uninstaller for each application.

A file which was created and saved using Adobe Photoshop CS6 is not opening anymore HELP

Hi, please help with my issue which is as follows:
A file which was created and saved using Adobe Photoshop CS6 is not opening anymore and sends a message saying that the file is not compatible.
What should I do, I have invested so much in that file and I dont think i will be able to do it all over again.

That's why people do incremental saves and use backups... You could try to open the file in an image viewer like IrfanView and see which parts are salvagable, but that's as good as it gets most likely...
