Cannot complete your request because the scratch disks are full
When I attempt to crop a photo I get this message: Cannot complete your request because the scratch disks are full. In fact one scratch disk has 62+ GB and the other has 52+ GB available. Does anyone have a solution for this?
@Mylenium: My computer is running 64 bit Windows 7 Pro, 16 GB Ram, AMD Radeon 6900 series with I don't remember how many GB of ram (I installed it maybe 2 1/2 or 3 years ago). I have 4 physical hard drives with Raid 0 and Raid 5 configurations. I have been using my system full bore since I built it, and the entire configuration has been excellent for my processes until now. Is there any other specific information that you would need to have an idea of what the problem may be? Thanks.
@ JJMack: My scratch disk available volumes were wide open with 62 GB available (S: drive) and 52 GB available (O: drive). I'm puzzled because I have used this configuration on my computer for the past 2 1/2+ years with flawless function. I'm not new to setting up and configuring my computer, but I'm new to this odd error message.

Could not complete your request because the scratch disks are full
i have more than enough disk space in my PC
not sure at all what this message means: "could not complete your request because the scratch disks are full"
please help
Thank youIt means that the operation you tried to do would have filled all of your scratch drives.
Check your Photoshop preferences to make sure you have the drives assigned correctly. And double check your settings (like the crop tool with a high resolution specified) for the particular operation that fails -- most likely it is trying to create something huge that would fill your scratch drives. -
Cannot complete your request because the database is being refreshed
I created provisioned one user in Shared Services and then assigned to a group. After this I went to workspace in advance mode in order to manage security filters, the user does not appear and when I try to "create" an existing user, an error appears: Cannot complete your request because the database is being refreshed
I'm not running any refresh in the database and my EAS does not show anything. What could be happening? It is Hyperion Planning 11.1.1.3
Regards,Than you John,
I executed the cmd and this appeared after entering the password, I understand that the application has been unlocked, doesn't it?

Tried to use the spot healing brush and clone stamp and got error messages "cannot use because the scratch disks are full." What does this mean? PSE9
Elements uses drive space to make its calculations, like someone writing down measurements on a scrap of paper. How much free space is there on your hard drive?

I have only had Photoshop elements on my computer for less than a month (free trial). The past few days I am getting an error message whenever I try to do anything that reads "Cannot __ because the scratch disks are full." I do not know how to fix this problem. Any advice would be greatly appreciated!
Photoshop Elements Mac user
If your program is Photoshop Elements (any version) you have posted in the wrong forum. Somehow your thread has been posted in the Adobe Premiere Elements Forum (video editing).
Please re-post your thread in the Adobe Photoshop Elements Forum or wait for a moderator here to see your thread here and move it from here to there.
Photoshop Elements
Think about.....Sounds like you do not have enough free hard drive space for editing. In your Photoshop Elements Mac case, please check out Photoshop Elements/Preferences/Performance and the Scratch Disk area.

after re-installing photoshop elements following a HD crash, i get the following message after clicking on PE icon, "could not initialize photoshop elements because the scratch disks are full".How can this problem be resolved?
dgrparker a écrit:
photoshop element 2.0 - on windows 7. the program ran fine on the old HD, but this error popped up when I re-installed it on the new HD
Elements 2.0 is an old version. The message may be due to the fact that your new HD is much bigger than your older one, and not due to the classical reasons:

"Could not initialize Photoshop Elements because the scratch disks are full"
I have just installed Photoshop Elements 2 on my new computer. When I try to open the program, I get the message that the scratch disks are full !!! It's a new computer --lots of memory and almost no programs installed yet. The program works perfectly fine on my old computer...never have gotten a message about scratch disks.
What do I have to do to get Photoshop Elements 2 to work on my new computer? And please don't tell me to buy a later edition of Photoshop Elements! I already have Version 9 as well, but I tend to use Version 2 more for simple tasks.Is it not possible to launch any part of the program? Even going to a folder and right clicking an image and choosing “Open with Photoshop Elements” or double clicking the application “PhotoshopElements” in Program Files\Adobe\Photoshop Elements
Program Files (x86) on Windows 64 bit. It’s not clear what you can do otherwise.
Normally scratch disks are allocated through preferences e.g. in PSE2
Edit à Preferences à Plug-ins & Scratch Disks
First disk is normally allocated to start up and you need to allocate the second to the C: drive or other volume.
You can check this if you still have PSE2 working on an old machine but unless anyone else can think of a solution you may be stuck.

. This error message pops up in Photoshop when i just wanna create a new plain white template. I have downloaded agentransack to track down the temp files and for some reason it says nothing matches the temp files.I have a couple of drives including 2 SSD's. I've try to fix this many times following different steps but none of them work and my disks equal to over 250GB. Please help. ( I am running windows 7 proffesional) 64 bit
Good day!
my disks equal to over 250GB.
What’s relevant is the space on the disk/s you have assigned as Scratch Disks – what are they (Phortoshop > Preferences > Performance > Scratch Disks)?

I can not complete any action while in photoshop because the scratch disks are full. I have already run into the Performance Preferences and allowed the program to use the 7.09 GB I have of free space. What else can I do? Help please, I am about to throw out the laptop through the windows....
If the scratch disk must be contiguous, then the defrag will help. It's unclear from Adobe literature whether this is true. In fact, from the literature, I'd say it's not, as they only mention "contiguous" and "RAM" together (from my super-thorough googling). I certainly understood it to be contiguous, but I misunderstand a lot.
This Adobe doc might be of use to the OP:
http://kb2.adobe.com/cps/316/316693.html
(and doesn't defragging free up space too? I used to defrag unix boxes a lot and would save between 24 and 32k each time. YMMV ) -
I am using Photoshop 7 on Windows Vista. I just bought a new computer and installed Photoshop (which worked fine on my old computer running XP). It installs correctly but wen I launch it I get the error "Could not initialize Photoshop because the scratch disks are full." Then Photoshop immedietly shuts down.
My C drive has 1.3 TB free, my D drive has 145 GB free and my E drive has 5 GB free. I've tried defragmenting all the drives and deleting any temp files.
I do not know why this is happening and would greatly appreciate any advice.
Thank you,
Bradthere's a bug in 7 that causes this on drives with more than 1 TB free. upgrade photoshop to fix it or temporarily fill the drive with garbage or partition it so the free space is less than 1TB.
a side note is that current upgrade policy only gives special pricing to 3 versions back. right now that's version 7. if you wait until cs4 comes out you'll be 4 versions back and will be out of the upgrade path. then if you want a higher version in the future you'll have to purchase a full license again. if planning on upgrading photoshop - ever - suggest you do it before cs4 ships. -
Could not complete your request because the tile-format module cannot parse the file
Hi Friends,

Tried to "Open As" in PS a NEF file I modified in LR. Got the following error message: "Could not complete your request because the file format module cannot parse the file." I can "Open" the file in PS, but then the changes I made in LR (and saved in the associated meta data file with the "Control S" command) are not applied to the opened PS file. HELP!
If you are working with a file you modified in Lightroom, you should go to the Lightroom Photo menu and choose Edit in... and the version of Photoshop you want to open it in.
There a dialog will ask if you want to transfer the LR settings you made to your photo when you open in Photoshop.
