My Photoshop will not open.

Whenever I go to open up Adobe Photoshop (64bit or otherwise) it will load up for a second then crash the next. It doesnt give me error reason why only says it has stopped working and it can't detect a problem so it closes. I have tried to uninstall and reinstall the program but the Adobe Application Manager is also acting weird. When it is opened it freezes and soon crashes saying there is a "Download Error". Please help me if you have any suggestions. Thank you.

You need to provide exact system info and crash info:
Working with your Operating System’s Tools
The application manager failure is another matter, so you may look into this:
Sign in or activation errors

With CS5 you must have registered, hopefully under your present Adobe ID.
I am afraid the chat and phone support are off until the beginning of January.

Photoshop will not open some of my files

I recently had a hard drive crash. I sent it to a recovery company and they returned my files on a new hard drive. Many of the images were recovered but some show up as CR2 files or psd files that photoshop will not open. The message says that this is a file format that PS does not recognize. These files seem to be no different from my other CR2 files and psd. files but the thumbnails don't show up in Bridge and PS will not open them. Can anyone tell me how to get these files to open?

I thought this following suggestion to use GIMP to open stubborn PSD files was brilliant:

you may also want to try using the DNG converter with your CR2 files:

it's worth a try, but it's a long shot.

I downloaded and it opens, but everytime I quit photoshop I get a crash report! there is nothing different except that I upgraded to Lion. Can I uninstall and run Snow Leopard and if so....how do I do that?
Also, I just downloaded an upgrade to Topaz and it says cannot install on this computer...it is my main plugin for PS
If you have gone to the Topaz developer's site and see no update for Photoshop in Lion, then all you can really do is contact them to see if they ever intend to update it. What verion of Photoshop are you using by the way?

Photoshop will not open unless as Admin but that causes other problems

Hi all,
There are two problems:
1. If I don't run photoshop as an administrator
2. If I run photoshop as an administrator.
1. If I don't run as administrator, Photoshop will NOT open. I can't even open .psd by double clicking them. Can't open from the installed directory, can't open from shortcuts. It only works if I right click run as admin or set properties to run as admin.
I am the only user for the system, and I have even taken ownership of all files. Yet, it still requires me to run as admin. I am running CS5 with windows 7 64bit.
2. If I run as admin I cannot drag or drop files into PS. As detailed in here - http://forums.adobe.com/message/3640635. I can open files manually through file menu, but dragging and dropping is disabled (shows a circle with a slash when i drag into PS). Their solution in the forum was to remove running as admin. But if I do that, I get problem 1.
Any ideas?
Jason

Option 1: Clearly something went wrong when installing Photoshop, or you have changed permissions on your system for some part(s) Photoshop needs to access. Verify, for example, that you have Full Control access to the root of the hard drive you have identified as scratch. A reinstall of Photoshop might correct this.
Option 2: Windows UAC is likely the culprit here. Some folks choose to turn off UAC completely, which means you'll be running everything as Administrator all the time, but that should not be done without FULLY understanding what UAC does for you and what additional measures you'll take to ensure your system doesn't get infected with malware.

After installation CC, Photoshop will not open. Program error?

I got a subscription on Creative Cloud. Downloaded CC and Photoshop, but Photoshop will not open. After the splash-screen, it says something about a program error, and then it stops. I deleted CC and PS and reinstalled everything, but still the same result. I work on a Mac, and all software is up to date..

1. try resetting your preferences: hold down shift-ctrl-cmd while starting ps. you'll see a confirmation dialog if done correctly.
2. if that fails, uninstall, clean and reinstall following the help here, http://www.adobe.com/support/contact/cscleanertool.html

Photoshop will not open/create new files, cannot resize images etc

Hi to all.
So I'll start with the basics; I am using Photoshop 7 (And yes, I am using it for a specific reason, I'm not interested in migrating to this new $1000 Creative Cloud rubbish), us Australians are getting ripped a new one and I'm happy with the $50 I paid for my copy years ago. (Please do not tell me the answer to my problems is to simply upgrade and go bankrupt. Again, I've been using 7 for a very long time without issue).
I've been using 7 for almost a decade without issue. I stick with it because so far, it's done everything I need, has been reliable up to this point, and my plugins do not work properly with newer versions. I'm also running an older-spec system (Windows XP, 3gb ram etc) as I do a lot of work with older game engines, Source Engine etc.
The issue I'm having doesn't appear to be Photoshop-7 specific however, there are many threads on this that have gone unanswered, and happen in CS3 etc and modern copies as well. I have uninstalled and reinstalled it to no avail. Basically, I cannot open files reliably with it.
If I right click any image file in explorer and click "open with -> Photoshop", photoshop will launch, however it does not open the file. I double checked to ensure the file was not just opening offscreen, however it is definitely not opening at all (as the "close" option does not become available).
If I launch photoshop manually, and click file -> open -> It will open that file, HOWEVER it will not open any more files after that.
It also is very very fickle with simple commands, such as if I hit CTRL + T to go into transform mode and then try to rescale an image, I have to click and drag the corners at least 5-6 times before it will recognize that I am doing so, and it will also ignore the resize that I perform and snap back to normal. Sometimes I have to click things more than once to get them to register. This is not occurring with any other piece of software etc, so I've ruled out that it's an issue with my mouse.
This has only been happening a day, and I cannot think of any particular system changes likely to result in this (ie no abnormal plugins installed recently, no major hardware or software changes). Unless my keyboard has a stuck key or something strange, I'm absolutely at a loss
Is there anyone who can help me, or has heard of this issue?

I am an idiot.
I guess the scratch disk was full or something else. A simple reboot appears to have solved the problem. (I often have my system running for up to 48-64 hours at a time without reboots) as my workdays are around 36 hours at a time, so it could just be a memory constraint from XP.
Hopefully this solves the issue for anyone else who encounters it. Reboot your pc once in a while, give it a clean slate of memory to work with.

Most current update of Photoshop - will not open any of my previously saved files?

I have the most current update of Photoshop CC, but it will not open any files that I have previously saved. They will not open if i use the Open command or if I try and open them from the folder. I cannot create new files either. Is there something I need to fix to get this to work again? I need this for work.

Please read these and proceed accordingly:

Photoshop will not open certain pictures

I am working on a photo montage and some of the photos will not open. Most of them did just fine but I am thinking that the ones that will not might be because they are too large. I have tried Photoshop, Photoshop Elements and Imaginate. None of those will work. Windows Paint will open them. Some of them I was able to resize in Paint and then open in Photoshop but the rest I cannot.
If I could scale down in Paint I think I could then get them to open in Photoshop but they are so big that I cannot do that. There doesn't seem to be a demagnifier in Paint. Another thing, Windows Explorer reads them just fine as they show up as thumbnails and also in Filmstrip mode.
Anyway, any ideas on how to get around this?
Ted

I know in Bridge under preferences/thumbnails there is a box that states "do not process files larger than xxx megabytes". Don't know how that links to PhotoShop and what you have it set to. Might check that. Or are you using an early version of PS that does not use Bridge?

Photoshop will not open after installing window's 7 updates

I'm in a bit of a dilema, any help is appreciated. My Windows 7 has updates. When it does this, Photoshop will not run. I have reverted the PC back before the update and Photoshop runs fine. The only thing is that the PC will update itself unless I turn the automatic updates off. Does anyone have a fix for this? Photoshop CS2, running on Windows' 7 Home Deluxe edition.
Thank you,
Tony

This is the error message I am receiving. A window pops up when I try to run Photoshop. At the top of the window is the directory entry
C:\Program Files (x86)\Adobe\Adobe Photoshop CS3\Photoshop.exe
X Windows cannot access the specified device, path or file. You may not have the appropriate permissions to access the item.
The only problem is that there is no access permissions. I just did the system update and now Photoshop will not run. Any help is appreciated.
Thank you,

If you use extensions (Tools > Add-ons > Extension) like Adblock Plus or NoScript or Flash Block that can block content then make sure that such extensions aren't blocking content.
Start Firefox in [[Safe Mode]] to check if one of the extensions is causing the problem (switch to the DEFAULT theme: Firefox (Tools) > Add-ons > Appearance/Themes).
*Don't make any changes on the Safe mode start window.

There is a script running which Noscript lets me forbid, called akamaihd.net. It runs a script which is the same as in html when you highlight a word then attach a url to it.
I don't know why I am seeing it but not others. FF and Chrome seem susceptible to it. It's not malware as usually thought of because no virus/malware program finds it here.
Unfortunately, I have to forbid this script for every site I visit.
In the other thread where your browser displayed an 'i.trkjmp.com' link which isn't really in the web page, I gave you a Google link for info about the problem. You said that it must be something else. Well, for months now, Chrome and Firefox users have been troubled by extensions which cause the 'i.trkjmp.com' problem. You might want to revisit the link I gave you.
