Can't launch CS4

I have photoshop CS4 and when I try to open it it shows error message 148:3 and won't open.
What should I do about this?  What does that error code mean?

You have a user privileges/ permissions issue then. Same as with the Adobe stuff - due to insufficient permissions, all the auxiliary services can't be initiated. The specific cause will be only known to you, but could be anything from changing a user password to updating some other software. You might try to manually reset prermissions on your Avid and Adobe folders - right-click --> Properties --> Security and then some...

  • Can CS3.3 & CS4 Master play nice installed on same machine at same time?

    First off here are the specs on my desktop and laptop:
    Desktop:
    Mac Pro running OSX 10.5.6 - 2 x 3 GHz Dual-Core - 6 GB RAM - CS3.3 Master Collection currently installed
    Laptop:
    MacBook Pro running OSX 10.5.6 - 2.4 GHZ Intel Core 2 Duo - 2 GB RAM - CS3.3 Master Collection currently installed
    I recently received all the install discs for CS4. Spent the last hour researching how CS3 and CS4 play together when installed on same machine at same time. I haven't found anything that addresses my questions, thus the post.
    At present, not enough of my work colleagues have CS4, so if I install CS4 and uninstall CS3 - and need to pass a file on to someone who doesn't have CS4, they can't open it in CS3.
    Also, I use AfterEffects with many 3rd party plugins. Until I can verify that CS4 plays nice with these plugins, I can't afford to uninstall AfterEffects CS3. Obviously, I need to keep CS3 up and running on my desktop and laptop.
    But now that I have CS4 ready to install, I of course want to start using it and learning the new features.
    Has anyone successfully been able to install CS4 Master apps on a machine similar to either my desktop or laptop specs and have CS3.3 Master apps continue to work properly?
    I trust Adobe takes these types of version overlaps seriously and plans for them since people want to try out or start using the newest version but ensure there is a sufficient overlap period before uninstalling the older versions.
    Thanks for your comments

    j,
    Your old apps will work. But the new versions will be the defaults. You can touch your files to the old application to launch it or launch the old application first, and then open files "normally".
    If you need to ensure compatibility with older versions on other machines, don't delete the old apps. Or be prepared to save back to the old version before handing off the files. Note that InDesign cannot save back more than one version and in general, any features used that are new to the new apps will not be recognized when those files are saved back.

  • Can't use CS4 to edit --Photoshop CS4 crashes after installing Aperture 3.1

    Hello: Whenever I try to launch Photoshop CS4 as my external editor, it will crash while trying to open the image. I never had this problem before installing the Aperture 3.1. update. CS5 seems to be okay though.
    Whenever I select an image in Aperture and select edit with Photoshop CS4, it will launch CS4 and then hang---never opening the image.
    (I am using Photoshop CS4 for most of my work as many of my plug-ins have not been updated yet)

    ...my work as many of my plug-ins have not been updated yet...
    Since I do not know what kind of plug-ins you are working with, if you tell us what are you working with the specific plug-ins. So I cannot tell you, but I do know that some other plug-ins software developers such as Nik Software and onOne Software recently updated their plug-ins from 32-bit to 64-bit plugins. However, I do not know what you are working with.
    Also, when you are running Ps CS5, are you aware that you can switch back and forth between 32-bit and 64-bit workflow in Info panel. If you need to run 32-bit plugins in Ps CS5, you can always set it to 32-bit. When you are done working with that, you can set it back to 64-bit.

  • Still can't launch classic inside 10.4.5 despite alias fix

    Hi, I still can't launch classic inside 10.4.5 without the "connection failed" message problem. I tried the fix of removing all the aliases from the apple menu items and still I get this irritating message. classic will launch and the app within it, but I still get that message and it won't go away no matter how many times I click okay so I can't use the classic app I launched. Any other ideas? Thanks!

    Hi,
    The guy I bought the GeForce 7800 GS card said it had been tested with photoshop CS4 in Leopard.
    Breaking news... I tried re-installing Photoshop, Now there's an error at the end of the installation. "Done with Errors" which leads to the Support Advisor which leads to...
    "Error "Unable to read Adobe file version for path /Library/Fonts/MinionPro-Bold.otf" when installing the Adobe Creative Suite 4 or Point Products on Mac OSX"
    Is my whole problem font-related? I tried unlocking the Minion font mentioned, re-installed. same thing. I moved all the Minions fonts to the desktop, still no good. Are all the fonts locked? The info window said that font was unlocked to System read/write, but locked to read-only for Admin. There's no way to unlock all the fonts at once? Help!

  • I can't uninstall CS4

    I migrated to a new macbook pro... none of the adobe products worked... says "licensing for this product has stopped working"
    so I did everything listed on this page... "Error "Licensing has stopped working" | Mac OS"
    none of it worked and last "solution" was to uninstall and reinstall creative suite.
    now when I try to uninstall I get the message "Startup error: Required support files are missing"
    well no kidding, as the "Solutions 1-5" instructed me to delete folders... I replaced them all where they came from and still I get the same message that files are missing.
    So I can't launch what's there and can't uninstall to fix the problem... HELP PLEASE

    Yes, I tried rebooting and the cleaner tool still wouldn't launch... which got me thinking maybe the cleaner tool itself is damaged... so I downloaded the cleaner tool for CS5 hoping it would work for CS4 and LO AND BEHOLD!!! it worked So.... I was able to uninstall... then reinstall and all is good! Thanks for your input John, I do appreciate it.

  • Can't launch Safari due to error message

    I can't launch Safari anymore. It says it is missing some important resources and I have to reinstall Safari. I have done so, but it still does not work.
    Here is the error message;
    The procedure entry point SQLite3_wal.checkpoint could not be located in the dynamic link library SQLite3.dll.
    Can someone please help me? I have rebooted my computer, uninstalled Safari and reinstalled it without any luck.
    Thank you very much

    Just so you are aware, Apple no longer suports Safari for Windows.
    If you don't want to use IE, try Firefox for Windows >  Mozilla Firefox Web Browser
    Much more user friendly than Safari.

  • How many times can I reinstall CS4 if I inactivate it?

    Hello
    How many times can I reinstall CS4 if I inactivate it before I make a new installation on the same computer?
    Regards
    Mikael

    Mikael,
    Not really, because it made me go to slipstreamed installations that proved even better. It takes some time to make a slipstream, but in the end it proves even better IMO. When Win7 comes out, one of my first steps will be to make a slipstreamed version and post a guide here on how to make one tuned to your needs. This is a very old screenshot, way outdated, but it shows what a slipstream installation can do for you:
    Just insert the DVD and have some coffee. When you have finished your coffee and the PC has finished it's installation, you are ready to roll/edit. All tweaks will have been performed, logon scripts executed, etcetera.

  • How can I make CS4 the default for opening?

    Help! I have most versions of PS but I prefer CS4. I am a photographer. Forever CS4 was the default when opening photos. Something happened yesterday and now when I double click on a photo to open it it opens but not in CS4. Not sure what version it's opening in. But I want it to open in 4. I can right click each and every time to open in 4 but I open tons of photos all day long and that takes too long. How can I again make it so that CS4 is the default?
    Thank you.

    Thanks. I couldn't figure out what you meant.
    What does CMD I stand for?
    If I right click on a file I can open in CS4 but there's no 'change all' there, just option of opening in CS4 or something else.
    I open RAW files. Then later I open jpg files. I think they are opening in CS4 as RAW (not sure) but the jpgs are not. If I right click it says CS6 is the default -- first one listed and has (default) next to it.

  • How can I Launch a Java application that I have written using an icon

    I have just finished writing a Messaging system like Ms Outlook written completey in Java. To run my application , I would normaly type: java and then the class containing the main method eg java LogonFrame.
    How can I launch my application by just clicking on an icon ?.
    How can I also package and install this application the way most conventional application are packaged and installed. Do we have a sort of "java Installer" ?.
    Thank you.

    Just make a .bat file. Open notepad, type something like

    javaw -classpath %~d0%~p0 Package.MainClass %1
    Now make a shortcut to this file. Rightclick the shortcut and select start in "minimized". Thats it...

  • Canon MX870 will print wirelessly but will not scan and can't launch EX navigator

    My laptop recently crapped out on me the hard drive failed. It's an old Macbook pro vintage with 4gig memory and running OS X maverics. After I got a new hard drive put in and restored my computer using a time machine backup I noticed the Tech had gone ahead and installed a newer operating system 10.9.2 and now I cannot get my Canon pixma MX870's software to work. After going to the Canon site and downloading newer drivers and wrangling with it for three hours I finally was able to get it to print wirelessly somehow, don't ask me how. But it will print wireless however it still will not scan even if I use image capture it sees no printer available and the ex navigator software keeps showing an error message it cannot launch! How bogus! Macs have always just worked period. No problem but now even when I go back to my old install disc for the Canon pixma MX870 it says that the software is not supported by this operating system .....REALLY... this printer is only about three years old! I'm shocked that apple could actually go ahead and make new versions of maverics that don't support printer software from two years ago..... REALLY you're kidding right! Whats next you won't support software from two months ago! I guess we have to just buy a new printer every month.
    This machine is starting to remind me of a Windows laptop what a nightmare. Jobs must be rolling in his grave. This is just utterly pathetic. This is the beginning of the end for Apple. I've always been impressed with how easy it is to use apple stuff but this is the second time I've updated my operating system only to find I have to go through **** just to get the freakin' printer to work. Come on guys somebody show me an easy fix here and if any body says it's the printer companies responsibility to update their drivers and software I think I'm going to puke. I have already downloaded the newest Canon software for the MX870 and it can't launch I was able to get the printer to print but can't get the scanner to work and the solutions menu is now useless.

    Well you are right Steve my complaint is with Canon for not making it easier to install their necessary updates if you upgrade your OS system but it seems that when Apple is constantly making new upgrades available they might want to add in the heads up "OH by the way, if you install this new OS it's likely your printer won't work any more if it's more than three years old." along side the constant   "Updates are available for your computer" they should really have it read "Updates are available for your computer, proceed at your own risk"  No I'm sorry the whole system is geared towards making people get so frustrated that they eventually give up and buy a new printer. I'm not sure what 5 hours of my time is worth but I am sure that if were getting paid by the hour it would be enough to buy a new Canon comparable to the MX870. So by the way if other people are having this same problem, which of course thousands of them are, the solution is first download the newer driver, then download the new wireless setup assistant and then figure out how to use it (good luck with that), it took me about two hours just to find the access points on the printer and to be honest I just got lucky eventually. Then you must download the newer "Scan Gear" software if you want to scan. But it seems that the new "Scan Gear" software got my whole solutions menu to start working again so there you go, you can be a white night for somebody else who is having this same problem. I must admit that after wrangling for hours I continued to go back to the forums and eventually found a link to the canon software update page provide by some very nice girl who was very helpful for some other guy and the link took me to the same page I had been to several times already but I then downloaded the "Scan Gear" software and was up and running again. So thank you to that nice girl and in the spirit of her helpfulness I offer this to the thousands of other poor bastards that cannot get their MX870 to scan
    http://www.usa.canon.com/cusa/support/consumer/printers_multifunction/pixma_mx_s eries/pixma_mx870#DriversAndSoftware
    Go there and download the "Scan Gear" software that is for OS 10.9

  • Can't launch iTunes due to previous version of QuickTime installed

    I installed an older version of QuickTime, now I can't launch iTunes anymore. In Control Panel, I have QuickTime 32--version 2.11.57 listed. I did everything in the document http://discussions.apple.com/thread.jspa?messageID=3366434&#3366434
    but nothing has worked. I can't seem to uninstall the old version of QuickTime. When I run QTInstaller713.exe I get an error message about "Can't install because a newer version is already installed"

    There are no QuickTimes listed in the Add/Remove list. I see it listed in the Control Panel where there is a QuickTime and a QuickTime 32 (v2.11.57). I also see it in Start > Programs > QuickTime. When I click on that I get the message: "This action is only valid for products that are currently installed."
