Can not open Photoshop, says "incomplete or damaged file"

I am not the most techinally savvy lady so I might have made this issue worse.
After I first insalled the Creative Cloud and downloaded Photoshop, I attempted to open the program and it said "file is incomplete or damaged"
I tried deleting it out of the applications in the side folder to re-install thinking it would get rid of it but the tab is still there.
How do I delete Photoshop to re-install? Is that possible?
Thank you for any help.

You should never delete a program, you need to uninstall it.  If you actually deleted it you need to run the Adobe Script Cleaner, reboot computer and reinstall program.

  • I can not open photoshop CC

    I have a Creative cloud singel-app membership for photoshop , and i have updated from photoshop CS6 to photoshop CC , but i can not open photoshop CC becours it is asking for a product key .

    I have the same issue. It is working fine on y iMac, but on my macbook air it will not download. In the CC it says next to the PS icon "up to date" and green tick, but I cannot click on the icon. When I click more info it takes me to internet page for the download. When I click Download, it reverts me back to the CC app. It is as if PS CC is already on my laptop, but it isnt. !! Frustrating. ive tried unistalling CC, but no difference

    The Ask Toolbar is probably causing that in the Firefox 3.6.13 version. Disable that extension or un-install it.

  • I can not open photoshop CS5! Please help me!

    I have had CS5 on my mac for a while now... no problems.  All of a sudden photoshop will not open.  Icon flashes once... nothing!!!  Bridge I can access. I have uninstalled and reinstalled 2x's... still nothing.  What can I do?

    Trash the prefs in the preferences folder.

  • I can not open photoshop?!

    Error message says my "preference file is invalid-- it has been deleted." Any thoughts? I'm anxious because I need to send my material to a printer today!

    1st option - Try a keystroke reset: open photoshop while holding down Ctrl + Alt + Shift (Windows) or Command + Option + Shift, which should prompt up a reset dialog (you might have to run Photoshop as administrator in certain instances).
    2nd option - Delete your preferences folder (Preference file functions, names, locations | Photoshop CS5)

  • Can't open Photoshop CS in Wdo 7 - File is locked error

    My computer crashed. I re-installed Photoshop CS successfully on my new hard drive after I had re-installed Adobe Reader & Photoshop Prepiere Elements.
    When I open Photoshop CS, I get an error message "Could not initalize Photoshop because the file is locked. Use the 'Prorerties' command in the Windows Explorer to unlock the file."
    When I right click the 'Photoshop CS' file in the C:\Program Files\Adobe folder, I see that there is a 'greyed-out' check mark in the 'Read-only' attributes box. When I un-check it, it goes thru it's process & the box becomes unchecked. BUT, when I close that properties window and then go back & look at that property box again, the 'Read-only box is checked again (greyed-out). I still keep getting that 'locked file' error message when I try to start Photoshop CS.
    I had a similar problem with Adobe Acrobat on my laptop & Adobe told my DELL laptop Computer tech support that there are known issues with Windows 7 and all Adobe programs. They somehow screw up the security settings and do things like this.
    I have tried un-installing & re-installing several times...I am out of ideas...Does anyone else have a solution?
    How can I unlock the Photoshop file?

    You are probably running afoul of Windows permissions issues.
    I'm guessing you have used a different user account to install Photoshop than you originally set the computer up with.
    You'll likely need to set every folder and file needing to be accessed by you / Photoshop to be owned by you and have permissions so that you can do whatever you need to them.  I suggest reading up on Windows Permissions in the Windows Help facility.
    Also, you should read and understdand what Windows UAC (User Account Control) is doing for you.  It causes your applications to run as though they do not have Administrator privileges, so don't be fooled (as many ex-XP users are) into thinking you should have permissions to do everything you want while UAC is on the job.  Again, it's a good idea to read up on UAC and understand it.
    There is a wealth of good information in the Windows 7 Help facility.

  • I can not open PhotoshopCC "Could not complete your request the internal file signature is incorrect

    I can not open Photoshop CC -  My older Photoshop CS6 opens fine. But, I keep getting a message when I try to open Photoshop CC: "Could not complete your request the internal file signature is incorrect

    It seems your copy of PS CC is corrupted now hence this message.
    As Noel suggested please try uninstalling PS and then install it again from CC app.
    After successful installation verify.

    ?  Why does my Photoshop PS2 open on my Mac Book Pro OS 10.6.8 Intel Core 2 Processor but not on my just purchased Mac Book Pro OS 10.7.3? On my new machine I get a message saying "You can't open Photoshop CS2 because Power PC applications are no longer supported". I don't have a Power PC on either machine and this App does run on the older machine with an Intel processor. benrusy

    This is not new.  The fact that Mac OS no longer supports PowerPC applications starting with OS X Lion has been known for over a year now.  You'll need to upgrade to the latest version of Photoshop

  • Photoshop says updated in grey & i can not open it now?

    In my adobe application manager my photoshop says updated in grey and i can not open it now? Do I need to do something different to open it after the update?

    If you go to /Applications/Adobe Photoshop CC and double click on the Adobe Photoshop CC.app, it
    still won't start?
    That's normal fo the Up to date to be in grey in the application manager when there are no updates available.
