PS CS3 will not save as a psd nor open a psd

I've had photoshop CS3 installed on my XP PC for nearly 2 years and have worked with it successfully. All of a sudden when I go to save as a .psd I get the follwing:"could not complete the Save AS command because of a program error". Also, when I try to open .psd or .pdf or .eps etc i get the following: "could not complete your request because it is not the right type of document. What gives?

I have tried that and when I did I got a pop-up that says "delete photoshop settings file?". I said yes to that but it did not solve anything. Also, now when I try to use the type tool I get a message as follows: "could not complete your request because something prevented the text engine from being initialized."
In desparation I uninstalled the software and reinstalled but again, nothing has changed; I get the same issues. I'm beginning to think that something may be amiss in my registry. Because of the PS problems I've decided to see if I have any problems with my other Adobe software. Illustrator, Dreamweaver, Distiller and InDesign all seem to be working flawlessly. Not sure where to turn to.

  • Firefox will not save my Connections settings, so opens on manual proxy every time, rather than No Proxy?

    I'm using Firefox 4.01 and it will not save my connections settings when I set them to "No Proxy" keeps defaulting to manual therefore it wont load any pages until I change it to "No Proxy" which I have to do every time I open firefox.

  • Dreamweaver CS3 will not save page

    I have few details as I'm troubleshooting for a client, but hopefully someone can help get me to the answer...
    Client has Dreamweaver CS3. Been using it for about a year (and before that, earlier versions). One person now cannot save files. After making a change, Save is still gray and keyboard shortcut (ctrl+S) does not work.
    Other things I know (via phone conversation):
    - Using Windows XP
    - Check in/Check Out is enabled, and she is able to check out the file
    - Editing on local and uploading to remote
    - Other people within organization can save changes to the same pages
    - all users have same FTP username and password
    - I am using DW 8 and can access, make changes and save to same pages
    - She can Save As...
    Any ideas will help.
    Thanks in advance!

  • Indesign cs3 will not save after software update

    Assuming you have already rebooted have you tried to disable version cue, and starting the applications with Apple+Option+Shift held down?

  • Waveburner will not save overviews and CD drawer opens when quitting.

    When I re-open a file saved in Waveburner 1.5 the waveforms have to re-draw. And, something very bizarre, when I quit Waveburner my external DVD's drawer opens.
    Anyone experiencing this??
    Thanks,
    Tom

    Yes my DVD/CD app also does that when quitting Wave Burner. Maybe it´s supposed to be a feature so you won´t forget your project-DVD in the drive:)

  • Indesign CS3 will not prompt to save

    I recently updated my indesign cs3 with the adobe updater but when I opened the program it said that my workgroup client.indesign pl
    ugin was conflicting with my workgroup client UI.indesign plugin, so i went online and downloaded the indesign cs3 update and indesi
    gn was working fine except that the program will not SAVE AS. If i click on it, there is no prompt and if i make a change to my file
    and close the file, the program will not prompt me to save the file before I close the program.

    Both of those are in the required plugins folder on my system, and have the same date and version number (5.0.4.682), so you might want to check to be sure yours match.

  • Will not save swf- "the parameter is wrong"

    I created a very simple file in Flash CS4, a plain background and two layers, each with some text which is hyperlinked.  I decided to test it before proceeding further, and it will not save as a swf at all!  I continually get an error message that "The parameter is wrong".  That's all.  I had the publish settings set to Flash Player 9 and AS 2.  I tried various combinations of Flash Player 8, 9, and 10, and As 2 and 3.  Same error message....
    This file has almost nothing in it!  What am I doing wrong?

    Weird weird weird- my Flash 10 was very twitchy for awhile today, then seemed to calm down, and I was also able to create a swf from a new fla file, in which I accepted the default publish settings of Player 10 and AS 3.  Later, I was able to do a SaveAs and change parameters to Player 9, but left AS at 3. Seemed to work fine......
    Some of the issues I have had with Flash, Photoshop, and also Fireworks, is possibly due to the fact that I bought CS4 and installed it in parallel to CS3.  Didn't want to lose work previously created in CS3 programs, but, oddly enough, Adobe has me registered properly as the owner of the CS3 suite, but when I try to register the CS4 suite, it claims the serial number is already registered (but not to me!).  Very odd, since I got that serial number via student verification through Adobe.  Oh well, I'll just cope, since I don't feel like sitting on hold for 1-2 hours waiting to talk to an Adobe CSR, who will likely suggest an (OH NO!!!!) re-installation....
    Thanks for checking that file.  The gremlins appear to have retreated for the time being.

  • OSX 10.7.4. will not save ANY of my preferences (system or application -- Safari, Office, etc.)

    I am running System OSX 10.7.4 on three different MacBooks.  It will not save any of my preferences (system or application based), passwords, log-ins and keychain. Even Safari did not save imported bookmarks.  I am running Office For Mac 2011 (v 14.2.1) and Outlook will work for a day or two and then I get a rebuild database error message, losing everything.  Word, et all, will not save any preferences, not even recent files.
    I did a full erase and clean system reinstall and a fresh install of Office. This problem occurs on all 3 of my MacBook, 2- MacBook Pro’s and a MacAir.  One of the MacBook Pro’s is BRAND NEW. 
    Any ideas, any fixes out there?

    I have what seems to be a similar issue. Are you having other issues like mine?
    Macbook air      11-inch, Late 2010
                            4 GB 1067 MHz DDR3
    Software           Mac OS X Lion 10.7.4 (11E53)
    I have updated the latest combi update from the apple site and still have the same issue.
    No matter what I try every time I restart my Mac all my preferences and applications reset. (Also preferences don't save when exiting the preference folder)
    For example when in >system preferences>general -untick the 'restore windows when quitting and re-open apps' I exit preferences and then go back in to check it has automatically reticked the box.
    I have deleted 2 applications several times (including removing the icon from the dock) and each time after restarting it shows a question mark on the dock where I had deleted it from.
    On restart I loose downloads and history in safai.
    On restart it re opens documents and applications I have quite even after unticking the restore applications on restart box (the one that comes up when shutting down or restarting)
    I have been trying to solve this for a month now and it really is frustrating the **** out of me.
    helpppp pleaseee...

  • CS3 will not install on Windows 7, 64-bit. No error message. Just stops installing.

    CS3 will not install on Windows 7, 64-bit. No error message. Just stops installing. This is a brand new machine. This is one of the first things I'm installing on it. I'm running Windows 7 Home Premium 64-bit. The disks are fine. I have the programs installed on my two XP machines. When I run the disk, I get the window pop up that says "Initializing Installation for Adobe Creative Suite 3". Then the disk stops spinning and nothing else happens. No error message. Nothing else happens. I'm baffled. I have searched several discussion boards and cannot find anybody that has had a similar install issue like this.

    Old_Timer I would recommend reviewing your install logs to determine the exact error message.  You can find details on how to locate and interpret the logs at Troubleshoot installation with install logs | CS3, CS4 - http://helpx.adobe.com/creative-suite/kb/troubleshoot-installation-install-logs-cs3.html.

    In iOS 4, you could make separate photo slide shows with separate songs.

    Is there any way to fix this? This is something I use every day.
    I am on an iPad 2, 32gb, wifi...
    Thank you

    My Photos app works the same on iOS 5 as it did on iOS 4 i.e. I can have a different track for each album. When I select a track for a photo album I then start the slideshow so that it shows the first couple of photos with the track playing - I'm not sure it's necessary to start the slideshow but I always do and it remembers that track for that album.

  • Hello, I have a series of language cd's that I am trying to put onto my iTunes but when I download them, they will not save separately instead they are saving as the first disk so i am ending up with 3 disks on 1. Please help

    Hello, I am trying to copy a series of language cd's onto iTunes but each cd will not save separately, instead it is saving all as one disk. So I am ending up with 3 disks on 1 with 3 different track1, 2 etc. Please help as I am sure there is an easy solution to this that I have no clue about. Thanks

    After you insert the CD but before you import it into iTunes, select all tracks and set the disc number to 1, 2, 3 ... as appropriate.

  • UPGRADED 10.4.11 ON MACBOOK PRO TO 10.5, NOW UPDATES TO 10.5.8 WILL NOT SAVE, "DIGITAL SIGNATURE DOES NOT MATCH". ANY IDEAS.

    UPGRADED 10.4.11 ON MACBOOK PRO INTEL TO 10.5.1 (FAMILY PACK VERSION), UPDATES TO 10.5.8 WILL NOT SAVE DUE TO, "DIGITAL SIGNATURE DOES NOT MATCH". ANY IDEAS? CAN I UPGRADE TO 10.6.1 WITHOUT SAME ISSUE.

    Well, not sure if having the disk in a firewire case or over a network would have made a difference.
    The solution of making a disk image as in article http://support.apple.com/kb/TS2664 was what worked for me.
    After, mounting the disk image the Migration Assistant completed without errors. So far everything seems to be working like it did on 10.4.11.

  • Pages 5.0 will not save documents created in Pages 09

    I have hundreds of important documents I created and saved in Pages 09.  I got a new Mac Mini running Mavericks 10.9.5 with the new Pages 5.0.  The new Pages will not save my Pages 09 documents.  Pages 09 will not save them either.  Help!

    1. Is it possible you installed from a demo installer and your 30 day trial period is up, when it goes into Read Only mode?
    2. Where and what was your purchased disk?
    3. Where are you saving to?
    4. Have you tried saving somewhere else eg an external hard drive and see what happens then?
    5. The auto-saving issue with Pages 5.2.2 could be problems with iCloud and online access.
