Error when opening Photoshop CS4

I own a new dell laptop with Window 7 OS. About 1 month after I installed Adobe CS4, I started getting an error everytime I opened up Photoshop: "Photoshop has encountered a problems with the display driver, and has temporarily disbled GPU enhancements. Check the video card manufacturer's website for the latest software."
I contacted Dell to see why I was getting that error. The technical support staff at Dell was unable to figure it out and said I needed to contact you. Do you know why I would get this error 1 month after I installed it?

Many laptops do not have very good video adaptors and yours may not meet the demands of CS4 in terms of OpenGL performance.
This could cause the error message. Try updating the video drivers and if that doesn't help, disable OpenGL in Edit > Preferences > Performance.

  • Recieve error when opening photoshop

    I am recieiving an error when I open photoshop cs5.1 [Adobe PS error]: Parameter is missing [shell:161].
    Any idea what this could mean?  I originally had photoshop installed as a trial and just entered in the purchased license.  I did not have this problem during the trail period.

    Sounds like a port error either with the scripting engine or licensing. Maybe it never showed up because there was no licensing active. Turn off security tools, configure them and your firewall properly, run as admin to test...

  • XML Parsing Error when opening Dreamweaver CS4

    Hi guys, I downloaded a trial version of Dreamweaver CS4
    which was downloaded from the adobe website and once i try
    installing it it comes up with 'please delete current menus.xml
    file and then rename menus.bak file to menus.xml'. Once I tried
    that the new renamed xml file has the same problem as the old one.
    Now, When i opened up the file in Firefox it came up with an XML
    Parsing error. The exact error is as below:
    XML Parsing Error: prefix not bound to a namespace
    Location:
    file:///C:/Program%20Files/Adobe/Adobe%20Dreamweaver%20CS4/configuration/Menus/menus.xml
    Line Number 12, Column 5: <shortcut
    mmstring:name="menus/DWShortcuts_Main_Quit" key="Opt+F4"
    command="dw.quitApplication()" id="DWShortcuts_Main_Quit" />
    ----^
    I am running windows XP SP3. Can anyone offer an
    insight/possible solution? I've already tried the following methods
    which have been suggested by other forums:
    CS4 clean script on Adobe website
    Microsoft installer clean up
    uninstall and reinstall all CS4/adobe products
    deleting Cache.db
    deleting Macromedia folder
    deleting faulty line in menus.xml file
    Is there anything else I can do? Thanks guys!

    1) Close Dreamweaver
    2) Navigate to the Design.xml file and rename it.
    3) Launch Dreamweaver and it will recreate the Design.xml file
    The AppData folder is hidden by default on Windows, so you need to enable the option to view hidden files and folders in order to locate it, as follows:
    In Vista/Windows 7, select Start > Computer > Organize > Folder and Search Options > View. In Advanced settings, choose Show hidden files and folders. 
    In Windows XP, select Start > My Computer > Tools > Folder Options > View. In Advanced settings, choose Show hidden files and folders.
    Once you turn on this option, hidden folders are displayed as dimmed icons to remind you to treat them with care.

  • Error Code 150:30 when opening up CS4

    When opening up CS4 I receive Error Code 150:30, what is this??

    If you upgrade your OS (most likely OSX) or recover Photoshop from backup, this breaks licensing.
    The simplest advice is to reinstall CS4 from your discs.
    If this is a problem, please get back to me.

  • Error message when opening Photoshop CC

    For the last month, I've been getting an error message when opening Photoshop CC that says:
    "Could not load actions because an unexpected end-of-file was encountered"
    I've been having to go back and use CS5 in order to get anything accomplished between this and my plugins not showing up (post about plugins in another thread).

  • Mac, have just upgraded to Yosemite and when I shall open Photoshop (CS4), the following message appears: "The licensing of the product does not work" Fault 6 How should I proceed? Have the program installed on only one computer.

    Mac, have just upgraded to Yosemite and when I shall open Photoshop (CS4), the following message appears:
    "The licensing of the product does not work"
    Fault 6
    How should I proceed?
    Have the program installed on only one computer.

    Download the Adobe Licensing Repair Tool.
    Run the License Service Update.
    Mac OS X 10.7 and above:
    a. Double-click the LicenseRecovery111.dmg   It will extract the folder. Open the folder.
    b. Double-click your Hard Drive.
    c. Double-click Applications.
    d. Double-click Utilities.
    e. Double-click Terminal.
    f. Type sudo python
    Note: There is a space following “python”. Do not press Return.
    g. Drag LicenseRecover.py from the LicenseRecovery111 folder onto the Terminal Window and press Return.
    It should look like this:
    h. Enter your administrator user name and password when prompted and click OK.
    (Note: the cursor will not move and you will not see stars or dots, just enter your password anyway.
    i. Let the script run, it will tell you when it is finished. Quit terminal and restart Photoshop

    There was no change in configuration and all of a sudden, I can not connect to GC. I did notice that OC4J for OC4J_EM is down and I can't get it to go "Alive". Can someone run opmnctl status and print the output for me?

  • Error when opening an RFC connection (CPIC-CALL: 'ThSAPOCMINIT' : cmRc=2 thRc=679

    Hi,
    We update the BW landscape for version 7.4 suppport package 4 (whitout HANA).
    We use a external system connection to extract data from a SQLServer database (Microsoft Connector 1.1 for SAP/BW)
    In the previous version (BW 7.0.1 SP 10) run correctly, but now is in error.
    Below the  BW error log:

    Hi Bruno,
    We were able to resolve the issue. SAP RDS is assisting us with our upgrade and one of their consultants gave us this fix/workaround.
    Edit and add an entry into P:\usr\sap\<SID>\DVEBMGS00\data\reginfo.dat on your BW host server.
    Below is the entry I added.
    P TP=<NAME OF PROGRAM ID> HOST=<remote hostname where you creating the RFC to> CANCEL=<remote hostname> ACCESS=*
    P TP=CTSAPNPSCI_PORTAL_FPS HOST=ctsapnpsci CANCEL=ctsapnpsci ACCESS=*
    Then in BW system goto smgw > goto > Expert Funtions > External Security > ReRead ACL (N) & Globally
    I hope that this works for you.
    Regards
    James
