Startup error message - Could not run this script because of a disk error.
I uninstalled Dates-to-iCal-Launcher and couldn't find any info about how to uninstall it online (just dragged the icon from Applications to the Trash). Now every time I start my iBook, I get an error message from Dates-to-iCal Launcher (there is an icon that looks like a scroll on the left):
Could not run this script because of a disk error.

How do I get rid of this error message? It happens every time I turn on the computer. Thank you!
thanks for the update.
there is no risk when changing settings in any OS user interface like System Preferences etc.
there could be some risk in manually deleting files from Library folders, which is done sometimes to uninstall applications.
keep in mind to regularly back up important files.

I edit a photo and when I click Save As, I get error message "Could not complete your request because of a program error." I exit Elements, try again, same error.
In past I had this problem but it resolved when rebooted PC. This time, PC reboot does not help.
I cannot save anything i do in elements!!
What's wrong? Any suggestions how to fix this? Anyone know what the program error isPlease mention your PSE version and underlying OS.
Also, it would be of great help in resolving the issue if you can upload a snapshot of error message.

Photoshop CS6 version 13.0 v64
On Mac OS 10.8.5
Error Message: Could not complete your request because of a program error.
Help! My CS6 photoshop was working before I upgraded my operating system to OS 10.8.5. I uninstalled photoshop and reinstalled it. Still doesn't work. I can't do anything in Photoshop, it comes up with that error everytime I try to open a file.Hi,
Thanks for the information. I tried it and the message "Could not complete your request because of a program error." comes up when I open the program or try to do anything in the program. So when I went to edit preferences it pops the same message up. It won't let me do anything in photoshop. I am up to date on the operating system but that didn't fix it either. Any other ideas would be appreciated. I cant use photoshop on my main computer at all!
Thank you! -
I have around 400,000 photos of 15 years so given the high number, I organized all my photos into 6 catalogs to avoid potential problems. All the photos and the catalogs are in a 4TB Seagate external hard drive. I use Adobe Lightroom 5 and I use a PC with the latest Windows Office 2013.
I wanted to have a NEW Catalog of all my rated 1 Star+ photos of all the years in a single Catalog. So I created what I called Star+ Catalog and I was told the best option is to import a Catalog at a time and given that there is no means to filter importing only Stared photos, I would import all the photos and then delete all the UnStared photos. I did that for Catalog Year 2014 but at the end gave me the message: "lightroom could not import this catalog because of an unknown error". It actually had imported around 40k photos from about 50k total. I tried again and again and every time I end up with the same thing. I created another new Catalog and stared from scratch and the same ting happened: the ONLY EXACT 40k or so photos were imported and the rest were not!! When I imported Catalog Year 2013 of around 45k photos, it worked perfectly. But when I imported Catalog Year 2012 of 35k photos, the same thing happened!!
I then tried exporting the needed photos to a new Catalog and that worked. But then when I try to import them again from my Master *+ Catalog I get the same error again!!
I also tried creating a new Master *+ Catalog and tried to import the Catalogs of each year into it and the same error happened again!!!
Any advice: 1) on how to solve this? and 2) if there is a better and easier way to create this Master Catalog of All Stared Photos of All my Catalogs?This is a duplicate thread - see here

Any advice: 1) on how to solve this? and 2) if there is a better and easier way to create this Master Catalog of All Stared Photos of All my Catalogs?OK, my starting point is that LR can happily contain 400000+ photos, and it's a mistake to create a 1 star plus catalogue as you suggest. Instead, I'd recommend you create a master catalogue of all your photos, which you can then query however you want - 2 star, or a certain keyword, or with "xyz" in the title etc.
If you are intent on going that way, you could try a slight change from what you've done so far. Instead of trying to import an entire catalogue and then delete no-star pictures, take the 2014 and 2012 catalogues and select only the 1 star photos. Then do an Export as Catalog for these items, and import the 2014-1star and 2012-1star into your new catalogue. That may get you past the problem images which I suspect are the problem.
If that doesn't work, or if you follow my initial advice, you're going to need to identify the image where the failure occurs. You may have a corrupt image file, and replacing it from your backup may be sufficient to resolve the problem. Alternatively, it may be a corrupt record in the catalogue, and in this case it may be sufficient to remove the image from the catalogue and import it again. You might try selecting everything in the 2014 catalogue and seeing if you can do an Export as Catalog, creating a clean 2014, and deleting 2014's previews folder might also get rid of a potential problem. Something else is to try the Export as Catalog for images 1-40000, then a second Export as Catalog for images 40002-50k.
So a few things you'll need to try, rather than a magic bullet, and a recommendation to change the underlying direction.

Does Save As-work?
Boilerplate-text:
Are Photoshop and OS fully updated?
As with all unexplainable Photoshop-problems you might try trashing the prefs (after making sure all customized presets like Actions, Patterns, Brushes etc. have been saved and making a note of the Preferences you’ve changed) by keeping command-alt-shift pressed on starting the program or starting from a new user-account.
System Maintenance (repairing permissions, purging PRAM, running cron-scripts, cleaning caches, etc.) might also be beneficial, Onyx has been recommended for such tasks.

Weeding out bad fonts never seems to be a bad idea, either. (Validate your fonts in Font Book and remove the bad ones.)
If 3rd party plug-ins are installed try disabling them to verify if one of those may be responsible for the problem. -
I'm using Photoshop CC 2014. When I click on Define Custom Shape, there is an error box that says "could not complete your request because of a program error." How can I solve this problem or work around it? I've looked on the internet for answers but could find no solutions to this. The custom shape tool is 99% of what I use!
Consider resetting the Pen tool by right clicking here
and if that doesn't solve the problem a logical next step would be to reset your Preferences.
To reset Preferences:
If Photoshop is already open on your screen, close it (Quit). Then hold down Shift+Ctrl+Alt (Win) / Shift+Command+Option (Mac) on your keyboard and start Photoshop.
A dialog box will pop up asking if you want to delete the existing Preferences file (the "Settings"). Click Yes in the dialog box. The existing Preferences file will be scrapped and a new one will be created.
By the way, if "The custom shape tool is 99% of what I use!" have you considered Illustrator? -
Error Message: Could not read this files because the plugin could not recognise the file
It wont let me open a file I saved yesterday? What does this error message mean & how do I fix it?
WHich version, which system?
What's in the file?
Where is the file saved?
Have you already tried:
- a restart
- re-creating the prefs file? -
Error message : "could not complete your request because of a program error."
Trying to edit text, or even add text is this error message keeps appearing
Without proper system information and details about your performance prefs and other stuff like fonts nobody can say much. From a "bad" font to unsuitable graphics acceleration settings this could be anything...

I get the error message when I try and print. I do custom printing for clients. I've tried turning off my computer and re-starting it, but that didn't help. Do I need to un-install CS5, and then re-install?
An uninstall and reinstall rarely solves a problem. If it worked before, and nothing has changed reset preferences. Start PS and immediately hold down ctrl alt shift (cmd option shift on mac). If fast enough you will get a reset window. Say yes.

My Mac was rebooted off the system disk. I have CS6 for Design and Web. Every other app opens. The only one that won't open is Photoshop. I tried to launch it without the preferences file, it still didn't launch. The Plug-ins folder is empty except for a folder called Panels, which is also empty. Should I uninstall and then reinstall?

Error Message - "could not complete your request because the preset contains invalid data"
I am trying to open a file, and every time I do it comes up with the following error message:
"Could not complete your request because the preset contains invalid data"
I am using Photoshop CS4 on a Macbook Pro running Snow Leopard 10.6.2.
I have tried:
- restarting my mac
- opening different files created at different times
- deleting photoshop from my app folder and the app support folder from my /username/library/application support/adobe/ folder and copied them back from a Time Machine backup from a few days ago.
I was using Photoshop all day today with absolutely no problems. I have searched Google and this forum and have come up short. No one has this exact error anywhere.
Any help? Thanks so much in advance!
Pat DryburghThe one thing you didn't do is reset your Photoshop preferences.
Most likely the preferences got corrupted, and reference a corrupt preset. -

Lightroom could not import this catalog because of an unknown error.
OS 10.5.8
(gb mem
I have recently exported a catalog from my main database (on a mac) with about 700 photos. Including negative files
We opened the catalog on a PC machine in the same version of lightroom. 3.5 camera raw 6.5. The images were given new keywords and then exported as a Catalog including Negative files.
The original catalog has been deleted from the main database on the Mac.
The Catalog with the new keywords saved across the network to the Mac.
Permissions are open to everyone on the folder the Catalog is in.
When I try and import the catalog in lightroom I can see the thumbnails,
However get this message. I’ve lost many hours trying to get the catalog bak into the main library.
I can open the catalog on its own in Lightroom, just when I try and import the catalog I get the bellow message.
I’ve tried importing saving to a new location
Importing not moving the files
Lightroom could not import this catalog because of an unknown error.
I see others have had similar problems however do not see a clear answer.
Has anybody a solution?
Thanks PatrickI'm having this issue as well, and honestly I've *never* been able to get "import from catalog" to work. In my case I have a catalog created on my Windows 7 laptop in LR3.5. I've copied it to an external drive, plugged it into my PC running Windows 7 with LR3.5. And I get the "could not import this catalog because of an unknown error" message.
I've confirmed every image in the catalog I am trying to import is accounted for and isn't "missing". There are no duplicate images between the exported catalog and the one I'm trying to import in.
Thoughts?
