Adobe PS CS3 has major flaws in Print Dialog. Beware!

System Specs:
OSX Leopard 10.5.2
MacPro 3.2ghz with 32GB of ram 1.5GB Video
Epson 11880 Printer
Samsung XL20 LED monitors calibrated using EyeOne Pro 6500k 2.2 and 120c/d
I have been trying to build a custom profile for my new Epson 11880. However, my results have been unsuccessful. All my prints came out super dark. The color is all off except for the grey scale.
After talking to Epson for hours I found out that the new Beta driver for the printers have a problem, so rolled back to v3.89. This fixed all printer problems. So printer is fine now. This also applies to the Epson 3800.
Spoke to Apple about their color management and Leopard issues? No fault found on the OS.
Ran a test using preview, iPhoto, EyeOneMatch, Photoshop CS, and CS3. I couldn't find my CS2 disk so I didn't get a chance to test that. preview, iPhoto, CS, and EyeOneMatch all came out with same results when printing a 9.18 target without PCM. However, CS3 printed the image dark and off color with the exact same settings. Problem has been persistent and I would like to conclude that CS3 needs to fix this bug in their software. It is ridiculous to be printing using another software because CS3 can't do a simple task as print.

viewing conditions are fine.
I have the whole room outfitted with GTI D50 lights. What can I say I am anal. No matter where you stand the light will hit 5000k. I change the bulbs out every 1500 hours although they tell me I can wait until 2000 hours.
My monitor is also calibrated properly. I am using the Samsung XL20 and XL30 monitors, which surpass the Eizo or any other LCD's on the market. I've owned the Eizo, NEC, Artisan, and any other monitors you can name. I also made sure my Spectrometer is fine and it is.
When printing targets with the setting set to NO Color Management in Photoshop it should yield the same results as the other applications. The only thing you are technically utilizing then is the printer driver and dialog box. Yes the printer dialog is always same and set properly also. PCM is set to no color management. I've tested this with other applications and it is CS3 that is giving me all the problems.

Adobe Photoshop CS3 has stopped working... HELP?

Everytime I try to make a GIF, and I select the length of the video, and press okay, a box comes out saying: Adobe Photoshop CS3 has stopped working. I've tried the "CTRL-ALT-SHIFT," but it doesn't work! Please help? ):
I make a GIF like this: File-Import-Video Frames to Layers.
Oh, and I have a Adobe Photoshop CS3 Extended.

You'll probably going to have to uninstall, then re-install the application; but you need to provide a lot more information;

the type of file you were working on,
machine specs, such as total installed RAM, scratch file HDs, total available HD space, video card specs, including total VRAM installed,
what troubleshooting steps you have taken so far,

if having issues opening raw files also the exact camera make and model that generated them,
if you're having printing issues, indicate the exact make and model of your printer, paper size, image dimensions in pixels (so many pixels wide by so many pixels high). if going through a RIP, specify that too.
etc.,

Adobe Photoshop CS3 has stopped working: A problem caused the program to stop working correctly.

I recently purchased a new desktop computer and installed Adobe CS3 Master Edition on it and I get the following error:
Adobe Photoshop CS3 has stopped working: A problem caused the program to stop working correctly. Windows will close the program and notify you if a solution is available.
Out of the entire suite of tools only Photoshop will not launch. The weird thing is i also had the same Adobe programs installed on my laptop and I have not made any installation updates to that machine and i am getting the same error. I have always installed the same software on my two home machines with no problem until now. Any help is appreciated.
Thanks,
Andy

Windows 7 " Adobe Photoshop CS3 has stopped working "

Okay let me stir up a whole new kettle of fish WINDOWS 7 VS CS3 PHOTOSHOP.
I have Windows 7 Ultimate Edition 64bit. I am running (or trying) CS3 Master suite. Most all progams function except Photoshop. I try to load it and I get "Adobe Photoshop CS3 has stopped working" and then there is no fix and no help. Photoshop ran on Vista 64bit just fine.
I'm curious if anyone else is having this same issue? If so have you found any clue as to the issue?
I get the feeling this could be a conflict with a windows 7 update or something?
Any fixes?

Try right clicking on the PS CS3 icon and run as admin. I can tell you that people have a lot of problems in running PS CS3 in Windows 7 and had to download the Windows XP virtual and run CS3 in virtual mode.
Anyways here is a link to the suite forums. They may have a better answer there for you.

Adobe Dreamweaver CS3 has shopped working

In the past two days I have been getting the following error
message when I try to make changes to an open page in Dreamweaver
CS3:
"Adobe Dreamweaver CS3 has stopped working"
"A problem caused the program to stop working correctly.
Windows will close the program and notify you if a solution is
available".
I am running Windows Vista Ultimate. I have not installed any
new programs recently, so I'm thinking that either a recent Windows
Update or and Adobe Update may be causing this new problem. Is this
a known issue? Does anyone know of a solution to this
problem?

WARNING! - Multicam has MAJOR FLAW in Premiere Pro CS6!!!!!!

When you are using Premiere Pro CS6, and you are editing a multicam sequence and you hit PAUSE or STOP, Premiere CS6 makes a cut in your timeline and then changes shots back to the original shot whether you want it to or not!!! This forces users to go back and fix the un-intended cuts later which is a HUGE time waster. The thread below was started tracking the issue and then suddenly LOCKED by Adobe with a FALSE correct answer as the issue is NOT fixed! The answer is only an attempt at a workaround which DOES NOT work for everyone as pointed out in the thread and the thread should NOT have been locked as the MAJOR FLAW still persists and has persisted for years. Final Cut Pro, Avid, FCPX do NOT have this issue. Premiere Pro CS6 does.
This is the thread:
http://forums.adobe.com/thread/1069438?tstart=0
Premiere Pro CS6 is a nice editing program BUT it has a HUGE time-wasting flaw that makes editing multicam sequences VERY frustrating for many users and that still persists as of version 6.0.3. Please start by UNLOCKING a thread that is NOT resolved. The issue is NOT fixed and still persists as of October 2012. Marking something as the "correct answer" that does not work for everyone is unacceptible and only avoids the real issue that has been around for years as pointed out in the original thread started back in 2010. Please unlock the thread until the issue is resolved so the issue can be discussed constructively until its resolved!

Please don't double post. The content of the thread you referenced contains all the information that is needed to work around the issue. Thread locked. If you start additional topics for the same issue, they will be deleted.

Adobe Photoshop CS6 has stopped working - when printing

I get the message “Adobe Photoshop CS6 has stopped working” regularly when I try to print a Photoshop document. I end up having to recreate the document which usually then prints even though I have just dragged the layers across. How can I resolve 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 Photoshop General Discussion forum, where you'll get more specialized help.

Keyboard shortcut for Copies has never worked in print dialog

I don't know if this is the right place to report a bug, but it has always irritated me that the keyboard shortcut ALT-C to move the focus to the Copies field has never worked in the Adobe Reader print dialog. It should work as the underscore exists in "Copies:" I use the shortcut all the time in Office whenever i want to print more than one copy. It would be nice if this would work in Adobe Reader also. It should work as the underscore exists in "Copies:"

Adobe Photoshop CS3 has stopped working

Photoshop was working yesterday, but now I'm getting this message:
"Adobe Photoshop has stopped working.
A problem caused the program to stop working correctly. Windows will close the program and notify you if a solution is available."

I have the same problem. A Vista machine that's been running CS3 for several months now gives that useless error message for PS and with DW it just does nothing. I didn't spend a load of money on a product only to find I'm locked out for no reason and just wasted 2 hours uninstalling and reinstalling only to find the same problem.
This machine is used for little other than web design, no new products added recently, possible Microsoft Vista patches and Kaspersky AV updates. Closing Kaspersky makes no difference.

Adobe Photoshop CS3 had encountered a problem V10.0.0.0

Photoshop V10.0.0 will not open. It crashes as its loading the Twain drivers at start up. I am running Windows XP.
I've tried deleting the preferences file, reloading Photoshop and, as a desperate measure, deleting and reloading CS3. Nothing has worked. I tried upgrading photoshop but still no luck. Set my default printer to PDF, still nothing. Disabled my firewall, still nothing.....
The worst bit is its been working quite happily since June 07 and then in late Nov early Dec it decided not to work. I also had a printer problem during this time and reinstalled the printer software, but photoshop wasn't working before I did that.
The error I get is:
Adobe Photoshop CS3 has encountered a problem and needs to close
Error signature App Name: photoshop.exe
AppVer 10.0.0.0
ModName: unknown
ModVer: 0.0.0.0 Offset 0.0.0.0.0.0.0.4
Any assistance would be great - I am getting desperate!
Regards
Sally

When I uninstalled my Dell 944 printer Photoshop worked. When I reloaded my printer it crashed again. It seems to crash everytime it loads the TWAIN part of the photoshop opening screen.
I've tried downloading and installing the latest driver from Dell for the printer but its 2005 and the same as the one I have so no luck there.
I still need my printer to work (its my scanner as well) but I am desperate to get Photoshop back! Any clues??

Help! CS3 has stopped working

I get an error message from windows vista premiumm home.
It just says: Adobe Photoshop CS3 has stopped working correctly. Windows will close the program and notify you if a solution is available. The only option is a box that says "close program". Once you close it everything goes away. It doesn't even give you a hint of what the problem could be. I installed creative suite 3 web premium on this brand new computer about 2 weeks ago. This is a first time install of this software, but when I called Adobe they said they don't offer free installation help anymore on cs3 because cs4 is out now. Anyone have a clue what I should do? I can't just uninstall photoshop, if I try it wants to uninstall all 8 programs.

try resetting the preferences, per this FAQ:

Dreamweaver CS3 has encountered a problem...

I have searched the interent for hours trying to resolve this issue.
Everytime I open up DW, i get the error message:
"Adobe DW CS3 has encountered a problem and needs to close."
When i click "send error report" or "Dont send," DW closes.
If I just leave that alone, i can work in DW.
The problem is its also doing it for Adobe Acrobat 8.0.
I am operating on XP.
I have tried to go in and unistall the entire Adobe Creative Suite. I click on "remove" and nothing happens.
I am really frustrated with this. Any help is appreciated.

Does CuteFTP work on it's own when DW is closed?
I too, use CuteFTP in conjunction with DW and have for many years and have never had such a problem.
Are you doing anything specific in Cute FTP when DW crashes?

Photoshop CS3 has encountered a problem...

Well, I've spent 2 days trying to fix this issue on my own, it's time for me to reach out and find out if anyone out there can help me! I can open a Photoshop image fine, but when I try to open a 2nd image (which I almost always do), I get an error message that says Adobe Photoshop CS3 has encountered a problem and has to shut down. This is disastrous, I can't do my work! I have Windows XP, and last week a technician loaded Microsoft Expression Web 3 on my computer... as far as I know, that's the only thing that has changed. Photoshop worked fine last week, but it was probably before Expression Web was installed. He also has to install Framework.net, he said when he tried to install Expression Web, he got a message saying he needed to install Framework.net first... I have no idea what version of that I have, don't even know what it is. I didn't look over his shoulder as he was installing... he did say that Expression specified an older version of Framework.net, but I don't remember what version.
I'm concerned that maybe what he installed caused some kind of incompatibility, I know that I'm a couple of versions behind with CS3. If that's the case, I have to beg and plead my management for an upgrade, but I have to research this first. Can anyone help me?

How are you opening the second file? Using the File-Open dialog?
I ask because Microsoft Expression Web is supposed to deliver a codec that understands how to make thumbnails for .psd files, and since an Explorer-like window is involved with File-Open, I put two and two together and it seems that the codec might not be playing well with Adobe's File-Open dialog.
It's been a long, long while but I have a distant memory that there's a way to have Photoshop use an alternate File-Open dialog, or at least there once was... I think it was a button at the lower left of the File-Open dialog. Try changing that.

"Program" CS3 has stopped working"-Has anybody had this issue before?

When I launch any of my Adobe CS3 software, I get a message as follows:
"Adobe Photoshop CS3 has stopped working
A problem caused the program to stop working correctly. Windows will close the program and notify you if a solution is available."
I tried resetting preferences, restoring my system to an earlier date, removing and reinstalling the software, and nothing has helped.
I am running Windows Vista Home Premium.
It is a licensed version of CS3.
Please help. I am dead in the water here.

Hi,
Have you updated CS3?
