Can't open Photoshop CS2 anymore!!

After several months of being a satisfied Photoshop User, I suddenly cannot open Photoshop CS 2. I keep getting the message: "An error has been detected with a required application library and the product cannot continue. Please reinstall the application." Other information is not given.
I tried reinstalling Photoshop CS several times, restarting, deleting even userfiles, and so on. Nothing works. From the message I'm given I take it there's a specific Windows file that is missing or something not from Adobe itself, which I had before. I did have my AntiVirus running before but I can't find any removed files in there. All other applications run fine, only Adobe seems to have problems so far.
I also tried to follow the Support files here on the site, but the solutions they give there do not fix the problem! Photoshop starts normally, I see the startup screen just fine, but then I get that message again.
Is there anyone who can help me out please? I'm quite desperate.

What does any of this have to do with the SDK? I dunno. That's where the original post was. That's where I posted a link directing the conversation to a more appropriate forum.
And that's where you jumped in to continue the thread with sound advice* like "stuff is broken" and "figure it out." Similar to the Adobe corporate response to this issue: spoken with authority, but of little practical value.
*Unaware, apparently, that this attempt at a fix has been tried and found wanting by users everywhere, as a simple Google Web and Group search shows.

    ?  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

  • When opening Photoshop CS2, the Toolbar & Palettes are small and hard to read. Can this be fixed?

    When I open Photoshop CS2, the Toolbar and Palettes are quite small and hard to read. Can I correct this and if yes, how?

    You can also change the UI Font size in photoshop cs2 under Edit>Preferences>General, but that
    just makes some of text bigger and not any of the icons.

    After installing icloud, I can't open Photoshop CS, please help. I am an artist and need photoshop to work.

    Did you upgrade to Lion just before setting up iCloud? that's more likely to be the issue. PhotoShop CS2 is a PPC program and won't run on Lion - on Snow Leopard it requires Rosetta to emulate PPC, and this is not included in Lion. CS3 and lateer apparently work though with issues.
    Click on the program's icon in the Finder and hit command-i. Near the top of the pane it will say 'Kind': if it says 'PowerPC' then this is the problem. It will not run on Lion and there is no workaround. You will need to revert to Snow Leopard (you could install this on an external disk and start up from that).

  • Old Logic + a new Mac = can't open old projects anymore. De/re-install?

    Hi everybody,
    maybe someone can advise me with this problem:
    I bought a new Mac recently, did install a fresh OSX 10.5 and then used migration assistant to transfer my old user account from my old Mac (10.4), incl. all files. It did take a night, but it worked - or so I thought. Actually all applications work as they should, except for Logic. I had to re-authorize a few plug-ins, but then all seemed to be cool. I can open a new project, record audio, midi, add plug-ins, all cool. But I ended up with 3 problems, which are really annoying:
    1) EXS24 couldn't find most of the samples anymore. Most, not all. I have 4 internal HDs, one for the system, one for audio recordings, one for samples, one for "other stuff". 2 of these disks came from the old Mac, 2 new ones, content copied from old Mac. In the EXS prefs I set "search for samples" to "all volumes", but it still didn't work perfectly. Finally I bought EXSManager Pro and now it seems to work again. I didn't try ALL samples yet, but the +/- 20 EXS instruments I tried, did load all samples.
    2) Space Designer doesn't load impulse responses for the presets anymore. They're there and at the right place. I can load SD and import an existing impulse file, no problem. But the presets don't find the required files anymore.
    3) Now - and this is the worst one - I can't open old projects anymore. I just can't. It starts loading, I see the rainbow thing (don't know the right word), it turns black & white and that's it. You can watch this forever and nothing happens.
    Regarding all 3 issues:
    I don't get any error messages. Logic doesn't crash, I can't click 'apple-.' to stop loading/searching. It just doesn't open the file. I had a coffee, a pizza, I let it try for 2 hrs+, but neither did it load a SD preset or an old song file. All I can do is manually quit Logic.
    But when I open Logic with the CTRL-button down and click "no" to core audio I can open all songs. Of course I can not hear a tone then, but it's all there. Opening a song takes 3 secs then. I tried to safe a song then with a different name, re-started Logic with core audio but same result. It get's "stuck".
    Of course I checked user permissions and all the usual trouble shooting clicks, but still Logic has a mind of it's own. I installed a 2nd user with admin rights, though still the same, plus all the 3rd party plug-ins refusing to work.
    Now I was thinking, should I de-install Logic and re-install from the original CDs maybe. And if so, is there anything special I have to take care of? Like manually removing any prefs or cache files?
    Or completely re-install the whole Mac? (pleeease no....)...
    If anybody has any idea, it'd be highly appreciated.
    Thank you in advance and for the energy to read my little novel here,
    cheers,
    Joern

    Ok, either my question was too long or nobody seems to have an answer. Sad, either way
    Here's something I found out in the meantime, maybe this is interesting for somebody or maybe - problem's not totally solved - enough info for any of you to give me further advice.
    When I start Logic Core Audio driver de-activated, I can open old songs. Then I save them in a new folder with all audio files and a new name. And I remove all EXS24 instruments as well as the Space Designer. I quit Logic, re-open with Core Audio activated and I can open the song.
    Problem no.1: EXS24 instruments don't find the appropriate samples, but EXSMananger Pro did help me with this. Same problem with Space Designer, which doesn't find the impulse responses, connected to a certain preset.
    Two questions, every idea would be great!
    - Is there any way to teach Space Designer Presets where to look for impulse respones. I can load IR samples directly and create a new preset, but I can't use my old ones.
    - Is it possible to install Logic from scratch over an existing version? Or how should I de-install everything connected with Logic and then install a fresh version from CD?
    Thank you again,
    Joern

  • Lightroom 2.5 and 2.6 crash when I open Photoshop CS2

    We are running XP Pro  and on one machine everytime we open Photoshop CS2 with LR2.5 or 2.6 running, Lightrrom will crash - everytime.
    I have updated video drivers, updated Lightroom, cleaned the registry, optimized the catalog, defragged everything, I have over 200 gig free space on all drives, 4 gig ram, and reseated all cards in the PC.
    All I have to do is open Photoshop and if Lightroon is running, it will crash within a minute or two. Any help?

    Look in windows reliability History for the Photoshop Crash and double click on it to see what is crashing within Photoshop.

    Turn Zoom on or off. Go to Settings > General > Accessibility > Zoom. Or, use the Accessibility Shortcut. See Accessibility Shortcut on page 123.
    Zoom in or out. Double-tap the screen with three fingers.

  • Downloaded Yosemite and now can't open photoshop on Mac Book Pro?

    I have downloaded Yosemite on MacBook Pro and now can't open photoshop.
    I have updated Java but still no help.
    Anyone know anything about this please?

    If you updated the OS after Photoshop 5.x was installed, the nefarious Yosemite disjointed beast damaged your Photoshop installation.  Thank Apple for that.
    You need to UNinstall Photoshop again, look for, download and run the Adobe CS Cleaner Tool, Repair Permissions with Apple's Disk Utility, install Photoshop from scratch again, apply any and all available Photoshop updates, and ONCE AGAIN Repair Permissions with Apple's Disk Utility—in that precise order.

  • I can not open my iTunes anymore

    i can not open my iTunes anymore i keep on getting an error message

    Hello scrubzy,
    What are your OS X and iTunes version ?
    Try to delete iTunes Preferences :
    Go to your-user-name/Library/Preferences
    Delete all files with iTunes in their name
    Launch iTunes
    If that doesn't work, the best way is to reinstall iTunes :
    http://www.apple.com/itunes/download/
    Your files (music, apps, videos...,) won't be deleted.
    Hope this will help.
