10.4.9 killed photoshop CS2 on my quad!

it opens ok, but when i try and open a file it freezes and never recovers. even after reboots.
anyone else having this issue?
thanks

I just tried it and no problems here. However I'm using CS3 now and I would suggest trying that.
Photoshop CS3 Beta is available for all registered users of CS2. It works very well with a few features missing.
Here's the link: You'll need your serial number

  • OS 10.4.8 with PHOTOSHOP CS2 on a QUAD & halting delayed typing....

    this has happened lately. It definitely is the CS2!
    I am finally doing keywords and details iptc on my photos. I am typing in the
    file info page on photos that sit in an internal ATA drive which
    seems to have no bugs. Pshop CS2 is on my start up drive.
    I have noticed that on my QUAD with 4.5 GB RAM with 10.4.8 that
    if i start opening up other apps or connect Firewire Drives &
    hours go by the typing gets slowed up inside pshop CS2 ( file info)
    on my internal drive ( not the startup drive ) or the startup drive ( desktop). Typing gets very delayed. If i reinstall CS2 ITS FINE!!!!!!
    SO it cant be that drives right??
    Why does pshop CS2 9.02 slow down ( typing in info ) as time goes by or
    if this has anything to do with it, opening up other apps etc...??
    any clues??

    As you know, there is no 10.6.8 disk, but one can clone 10.6.8 into a late 2011 MBP (from an external HDD).  Niel mentions a 2012 model, you are the one who speaks of 2011 MBPs.  That is why I directed the comment to you.

  • Photoshop CS2 won't let me open?

    I received Photoshop CS2 from Adobe because they shut down the CS server, killing my program. I installed the program using their serial number and when I open it, it says the serial number was not installed and then when I push 'ok' it shuts down. How do I fix this

    Hi there! Because the forum you originally posted in is for beginners trying to learn the basics of Photoshop, I moved your question to the Downloading, Installing, Setting Up forum, where you'll get more specialized help.

  • Photoshop CS2 Spinning Beach Ball

    I have poured over other SBBOD entries and can't find any that apply. Here is my issue:
    I am on a dual 1.8 G5, 2.5G RAM, Tiger 10.4.5, have 70% memory usage allocated, have disabled plug ins I don't use, have followed Dr. Smokes suggestions, ran Cocktail and Mac Janitor and have optimized HD, etc.
    so why oh why do I still get big hang times in Photoshop CS2? Seems even worse than CS. It is worst when I downsize 300dpi image to 72 dpi then "Save for Web"..that last part is the killer (I do flatten before downsizing).
    any suggestions appreciated. thanks!

    Were I to guess, I would suspect that your launch services cache is corrupted.  THis can be easily tested.
    Take a look in /Library/Caches for files that look like this:
    com.apple.LaunchServices-014501.csstore
    There may be several of these.  the significance of the numbers after 014 are the user numbers, 0 for root, 501,501 and increasing, "real" user accounts.
    Drag those files to the desktop and reboot.  That should cause the cache to be restored.
    You may get a "first time launch" dialog box asking if you really want to launch the application for some non-Apple applications.  Just click Yes or OK in the dialog.
    For a more thorough cache cleanup, you might get AppleJack and install it and run it in automatic mode.  That will clean up a bunch of junk that has accumulated.

  • Error:  "Could not complete your request because of a program error" (photoshop CS2 9.0.2 on MAC OSX

    Today I started my program (photoshop CS2 9.0.2) and opened a JPG file. When I went to print the file the program crashed and closed. When I restarted the program and went to open the file I got this error message, "Could not complete your request because of a program error".
    I have tried several different file types/sizes and all result in the same error message since the program crashed. It will not open any file I try to open. As I indicated above I am using Photoshop CS2 9.0.2 it is on a MAC with OSX 10.4.11.
    I called Adobe and the Rep directed me to Tech Note 331307 and told me to Re-create the Photoshop preferences files. Which I did and restarted the program, but when I tried to open a file (any file) I still get the same error message so it doesn't appear to be the preferences.
    Does anyone have any info as to what the problem may be and how to correct it.
    Thanks

    Thanks for the response. OK... This is the first day I have been able to get back to the problem.
    My system I am running Photoshop on is a Power Mac G4, AGP Graphics ATY Rage 128Pro chip set 16MB VRAM LCD 1280x1024 32-bit color, 500MHz, 1.75GB of memory, 1 MB L2 Cache, 100 MHz Bus Speed. I had installed the latest security update and repaired the permissions the day the problem started.
    Now to day I started the system and went in and created a Guest Account. I logged into the guest account and started Photoshop. Low and behold it worked just fine. So I logged out of guest and logged into my main user account And started Photoshop. Wouldn't you know it.... It works just fine. I can open any file I want with now problems.
    I got to thinking after I had done all of this that I wished I had tried to open a file in Photoshop today prior to creating the guest account to see if it still had the problem in my main user account.
    I did not change anything else on the system and all seems to work fine now. So at his point I am really not sure what the problem was.
    Again thanks for taking the time to respond to this issue.

  • Adobe Stock Photos Stuck in Trash and Photoshop CS2 won't run!

    Okay, I apparently did something stupid. I'm not even sure how this happened, but I realized that Adobe Stock Photos folder was sitting on my desktop (I'm using OS X 10.5.6). I don't know when this happened and I didn't think I needed it so I dragged it to the trash. NOW I cannot run any of my Adobe software (includes Photoshop CS2, Illustrator CS2 and GoLive CS2).
    I can see the folder sitting in my trash, but it won't let me drag it back out. So, just as a test, I tried dragging out the one other file (.jpg) and I can't get that one either. I know this isn't a Mac forum, but I'm desparate and cannot find anything to help me.
    Probably I am going to have to reinstall everything and (of course) I can't find my CDs!!! Please don't get angry if I'm asking the wrong question. I've done an internet search and I cannot find any solutions.
    Thanks, Anne

    Adobe stock photos does not even exist anymore.
    Have you tried deleting your trash? I have no Adobe stock Photos on my computer and everything works. try restarting the computer.

  • Adobe Photoshop CS2 shuts itself down after printing..

    Not sure whether I'm in the right place to post this..
    In my workplace, we just bought some new iMacs for design class. They are a 2GHz with Intel Core Duo, and has 1GB 667 Mhz DDR2 SDRAM, and running Mac OSX 10.4.8.
    The Photoshop CS2 is version 9.0
    I've config-ed the five new iMacs so they can print to a printer, using IP printing. Problem is, most of the time after the students sends the document they want to print to the printer, Photoshop CS2 just shuts itself down. Then the dialog box saying 'the software just unexpectedly quit' appears.
    It is confusing me, because our older iMacs (that's not an Intel-based) doesn't have this problem, at all.
    is it something to do with CS2 compatibility with Intel-based Macs? or something else.. what needs to be done to stop this annoying problem?

    Photoshop CS2 and Nikon D200
    Chuck Dell - 09:20am Dec 19, 2005 Pacific
    Just purchased new Nikon D200. RAW Images will not open in Photoshop CS2. Receive Adobe Photoshop CS2 error message "Could not complete your request because of a program error." Images taken with this camera will open in Nikon Capture 4.4 and then can be transferred to CS2 But attempting to open RAW images directly with CS2 is futile.
    Images taken with Nikon D2h and Nikon D100 flow perfectly through CS2
    Only images taken with Nikon D200 will not open in CS2.
    Is this Nikon problem or an Adobe problem?

    And does anyone know when Adobe will release supporting update?

  • PhotoShop CS2 Bridge caused strange loss of desktop visibility/memory ??

    I have a G5 (Duel) running Tiger 10.4.6. Just lately the Bridge in Photoshop CS2 has not been working too well - it became very slow and sometimes didn't "see" my images. Yesterday I could get it to find my image folders at all. Then all my desktop started to look weird - even when I wasn't using the Bridge. So I closed all the applications and restarted the computer. To my horror all my desktop and preferences (dock, safari, desktop picture, folders etc.) had been lost. At first I thought I had somehow lost all my image folders but using spotlight I found them all there - distribted in places I had never put them. I sorted everything out again and re-did all my customised stuff but it was scary! At no time did the computer give me any warning of any trouble. It did not crash or anything. I was running QuarkXpress 5 (classic 9) as well and had a Skype window open (although I wasn't using it to talk at the time) Does anyone have any suggestions as to why this happened - has it happened to anyone else ? Thanks for any help.. Diana

    Hi jamba,
    I think the issue is that your output of lspci shows no Audio device. Perhaps it got disabled in the BIOS? dmesg output may indicate something else afoot with your audio hardware.
    Hope that helps.
    I'll check out dmesg output.  also still need to check if something got disabled in the BIOS.
    !snd_intel8x0m  <- is your problem. Your sound module got blacklisted so un-list it. Modprobe it then try sound again or just reboot and it should work.
    moonswan.  snd_intel8x0 is the sound card (I think), in the alsa wiki it said it was recommended to blacklist snd_intel8x0m as a quirk fix. 
    No sound with or without it blacklisted still :-(

  • Adobe Photoshop CS2 Installing Error

    When I tried to Install for tryout version, it sometimes has an error. It says me to put the serial number in. Though it succeed it, it says like this : "Error 1311. Source file not found: C:\Documents and Settings\Administrator\Desktop\Photoshop_CS2_tryout\Photoshop CS2\Adobe(R) Photoshop(R) CS2\Data1.cab. Verify that the file exits and that you can access it.".
    I verified that the file exits, and I could acces it. What is happening?!

    Hi ,
    We really apologize for all the inconvenience which has caused you.
    Simply put it in another folder. The path is too long and unnecessarily convoluted - folders inside folders inside folders....
    In the meanwhile if these steps doesnt resolve your issues you can contact Adobe support by following the link below:

  • Can not open Adobe Bridge in Photoshop CS2

    Adobe Bride is supposed to be included with Photoshop CS2, but there are no links to it when in Photoshop.  File>Browse does not go to Bridge.   I downloaded a new copy of Bridge from Adobe and installed it.  There is still no link to Bridge in Photoshop, but there is a Bridge icon in the start menu.  However, double clicking the icon gives the error "The program cannot start because the file libagluc28.dll is missing from your computer".    However, a search for that file finds it in three locations: C:\Program Files (x86)\Adobe\Adobe Help Center, C:\Program Files (x86)\Adobe\Adobe Photoshop CS2, and C:Program Files (x86)\Adobe\Acrobat.  Any ideas as to how to start AdBridge?

    Adobe has disabled the activation server for CS2 products, including Acrobat 7, because of a technical issue. These products were released more than seven years ago, do not run on many modern operating systems, and are no longer supported.  
    Adobe strongly advises against running unsupported and outdated software. The serial numbers provided as a part of the download may only be used by customers who legitimately purchased CS2 or Acrobat 7 and need to maintain their current use of these products.
