CS4 Error on Normal Exit

Whenever I perform a normal Exit of PS CS4, I receive the error message; 'Adobe has detected that the application Adobe Photoshop CS4 has unexpectedly quit.' Is there any known cause / fix for this? (running OSX 10.6).
Thanks

I had the same problem, PS CS4 on Mac crashes upon exit. Cause seems to be related to preferences and started happening shortly after 10.6 upgrade.
You will need to restore the preferences.
If you have a timemachine backup and can remember when it was stable, - then restore: <~User Home Directory> Library > Preferences >Adobe Photoshop CS4 Settings and restore all of the files. I had a laptop with a good set of preferences so I just copied them over.
If that is not available you will need to reset the preferences back to defaults by simply renaming the 'Adobe Photoshop CS4 Settings' directory and starting PS. It will then re-create them.
If for some reason you still have the problem, then there is an article on the adobe support site you should find. They suggest looking at 'add-ins' next.
Good Luck

Photoshop CS4 Extended crashes when exiting/quitting

I recently installed CS4 and when I quit Photoshop CS4 I get a "DDE Server... memory could not be 'read'" error. I've looked all over the forums for solutions to this, tried deleting my preferences file, reinstalling CS4, and fiddling with performance options, but nothing seems to make a change. I never had much trouble with CS2 or CS3. This is really annoying.

Chris,
From a programming standpoint, the errors are different, but they are similar in that PSCS4 consistently crashed with the above posted error message on exiting after having loaded an image. I read the Adobe troubleshooting advice and traced the problem to a bad video driver for my old Quadro 2 Pro card. I downloaded the Adobe certified driver and the problem has not recurred.
It helps to RTFM.

Fit Image CS4: Error: Unable to create Window - OS error [1400]:210

Hi there,
I'm running Vista Ultimate 64 bit Photoshop CS4 Extended and have come across a problem with the Automate/Fit Image script. I have read the other posts here concerning a bug in the script, but I'm not even getting to the stage of the script giving me any options to run - I just get the following in a Script Alert message box: Fit Image CS4: Error: Unable to create Window - OS error [1400]:210
I can see that the script is in the Presets/Scripts directory OK. Anyone with any ideas please?

Thanks for that reply. I tried this again and it's working now. The only thing I can think of is that I have closed and opened Photoshop a number of times since having the problem and that may have fixed it.
I find that if I am doing a lot of work in quick mask mode on large images with the pen tool, after a while, Photoshop starts to develop a very significant lag time, taking a number of seconds to draw the next point or respond to the tool (I'm on Vista 64 bit with 12 GBs of RAM, so it shouldn't be RAM, GeForce 8800 GTS video card 640MB dedicated video memory). I find that I have to frequently close Photoshop to get the tool response time back to normal. Perhaps the inability to draw a dialog box was somehow linked with this kind of problem....

Error accessing Excel - Exiting

Hai,
I get this error most often, "Error accessing Excel - Exiting" , and then I manually kill the EXCEL.exe process in the taskbar, I want to permanently get rid of this problem, is there a setting in MS Excel or the Xcelsius 2008 that I can make so the Excel closes down first and then the Xcelsius is shut down manually.
al times daily.
This error really takes up lot of developer's time by closing and reopening the Xcelsius sever
Thank you in advance.
Vijay.

I feel your pain.
Assuming this involves the latest patch levels for Xcelsius and MS Office (includes all respective Fix Packs and Service Packs for both Xcelsius and MSO), it may be possible to get around the error by doing the following:
1. Close Xcelsius and all MS Office applications completely (saving whatever work you need to save)
2. Open the Task Manager and kill all MS Office and Xcelsius related processes that are running, if any
3. Launch MS Excel
4. Excel may ask you which spreadsheet you want to recover. Humor it and either perform a recovery or just opt to skip recovery, until a spreadsheet is opened normally and the XLS recovery sidebar is gone.
5. Close Excel and check again to ensure that no MS Office related or Xcelsius processes are still running
6. Launch Xcelsius
If this doesn't work, try rebooting and launching Xcelsius before running MS Office.
Keep in mind that any time you try to use Xcelsius with any MS Office app running (yes, even Outlook sometimes) you may be playing with fire so be sure to save and back up your XLF projects frequently. This has been my experience, in any case.
Again, this is just what I have personally experienced and observed as a fellow end user.

Sounds like an activation issue. Quite Premiere Pro. Sign out of Creative Cloud. Restart Premiere Pro. Sign back in: http://bit.ly/CC-sign-out
Hope that works for you.

Adobe Anchor Service CS4 Error 1612. The installation source for this product is not available.

Hi,
I've been trying to install CS4 Design Premium, except that I got this message:
Adobe Anchor Service CS4
Error:
Error 1612. The installation source for this product is not available. Verify that the source exists and that you can access it.
What is wrong and how do I fix it? I've installed this on my sister's laptop as well, but I've already uninstall it. Could this be the reason why?
Help appreciated, thanks!

Contact Adobe Technical Support for CS4 installation issues.
The problem has nothing to do with the fact that you already installed the same software on your "sister's laptop as well." And although you have already uninstalled it (and hopefully deactivated it as well), please remember that this software is licensed for a single user! You and your sister cannot somehow share the license.

1 fatal error 7 errors 0 warnings exit code 7 Photoshop CS5 on Surface Pro 34.

How do I get past this error? It says to restart, which I did. This is my third try. The first try failed. The second try worked and it registered my serial number, but there were warnings that not everything installed. I did not uninstall the second try. I just did a third try and got the following:
1 fatal error 7 errors 0 warnings exit code 7 Photoshop CS5 on Surface Pro 3.
I am moving this from a 3 year old ASUS tablet with Windows 8.1 where it works find. I am using an install disk

CS4 Error 148:3 What the hell does that mean?

CS4 Error 148:3 What the hell does that mean?

It's a licensing error and I'm sure the accompanying text in the warning dialog spells it out pretty clearly, despit you not caring to provide that info along with any tangible details about your system. So the only blindfire advise we can give you is this: Error "Licensing has stopped working".

Installing Problem: Adobe Anchor Service CS4 Error: Error 2.

Hello all,
I use a 32bit Windows Seven system, and I've got a problem during the install process (Adobe Anchor Service CS4
Error:
Error 2. )
I used to have After Effects (installed with the same installer i'm trying to use now), then, I've formatted my PC, and since then, wasn't able to install it again.
I've tried resetting my pc, closing all aps, like the program suggests, downloaded the Support Advisor, tried both ways he told (even though the problem in the link wasn't the same as mine) and it still havent installed.
Does anyone knows how to solve it?
Thanks

There is a piece of Adobe software that removes all traces of a previous installation, making re-installation go much smoother.
Unfortunately, I don't remember its name. But someone will, and they might even have a link to it.

User32.dll Causing Error on Application Exit

I have an application built into an exe with LabVIEW 8.2. It uses 1 simple call to user32.dll to determine if caps lock is on. When I build the application, it copies user32.dll to the 'data' subdirectory of my application. Everything works fine, however when I exit the program it throws a Windows error, "... has encountered a problem and needs to close..."
Now the fun part. If I remove user32.dll from this directory, everything works fine. I guess it just goes out and finds the original user32.dll in the system directory and there are no errors when I exit. Replacing the file in \data causes the error again.
The simplest thing would be to remove the call in my program as it isn't absolutely necessary (it just shows a warning when entering a password if caps lock is on), but there seems to be something weird going on because it only throws the error when using the dll it copied.
Is there any way to stop the application builder from copying dlls? I couldn't find anything.
Is there a way to force LabVIEW to release and cleanup any dlls it is using? If I could do this when the user exits, maybe whatever is causing this won't get left behind.

You should not copy system DLLs to other systems. That is a recipy for troubles. Make sure to reference user32.dll form inside the Windows System directory in your Call Library Node. LabVIEW will then see this as system library and not include it in the build. Any Windows system will have user32.dll in the system directory so there is really absolutely no need to distribute that with your app, (and actually it is legally not even correct).

Message error on user-exit MV50AFZ1

Hi!
I need to send a message error on user-exit MV50AFZ1 (VL01N), but I can't, because when I use BAPI_DELIVERYPROCESSING_EXEC for create deliveries, it will abort my program.
My program try to create many deliveries together, when occurs a message error, I don't know what order is the problem!!
Thanks,
Tatiana

Hello.
In the exit, use a condition like:
IF sy-tcode EQ 'VL01N'.
MESSAGE E000(...)
ENDIF.
This will avoid the error in BAPI execution.

Valter Oliveira.
