Photoshop 7.0 Refuses to open

Photoshop 7.0 Refuses to open after working fine on Windows 7 PC. Reinstall doesn't help.  Has worked fine for years.  This is completely random and very frustrating.  ImageReady is installed with it and opens fine.

What happens when you try to open ps 7, such as an error message or hanging on a particular part of the splash screen?
Resetting the photoshop 7 preferences might clear things up:

  • Adobe photoshop elements suddenly refused to open (launch)

    I had purchased Photoshop Elements 12 Editor for my mac laptop perhaps 1 or 2 months ago. It worked fine until last night. It suddenly keep saying "your application quit unexpectedly, do you want to re-open?" Either reopening or saying cancel and just open the application, both show the same result. It would repeatedly say "your application quit unexpectedly, do you want to re-open". I cannot photoshop to open at all. I deleted the app and downloaded new one again. It's still not working. I am really puzzled at why it suddenly quit working. Any help to get it up and running would be really great as I really need to use it for my son's school's event. Thanks

    Reinstalling is not the way to fix these things, usually. First go to your user library and delete:
    com.adobe.PhotoshopElements.plist
    Adobe Photoshop Elements 12 Paths
    Adobe Photoshop Elements 12 Settings
    com.adobe.Elements Organizer.12.0.plist
    com.adobe.ElementsOrganizer12.plist
    and any lockfiles with the same names, then  go to Saved Application States (at the same level as preferences) and delete any for PSE, then repair permissions and launch PSE again.
    To see the User library, click the Go menu in the Finder and hold down the Option key and it will appear below the little house for your user account.

  • Photoshop & Illustrator refuse to open

    After visiting the Apple for help getting Flash to work on my mac (after years of unsuccessful attempts of my own), my Creative Suite refuses to open. The error message reads "Configuration Error, Please uninstall and reinstall the product".  I have no access to my disks because I'm on an extended trip with my family, but need to continue working while I'm away. How do I get it to operate again without the install disks? I've had no problems over the past 3 years until now.

  • Photoshop CS6 PDFs will not open in Adobe Acrobat

    Photoshop CS6; Windows 8
    I've been using Photoshop to create reduced size PDFs. I've never had a problem with CS6 until the passed week. When I click to save for PDF no "error" dialogue box appears. However, when I try to open the new file in Adobe Acrobat reader a dialogue box says "Out of memory". Also, in my windows explorer, the file shows up as just a white box in the "Preview" side panel.
    What am I not doing correctly all of a sudden? I've been sticking with the same preferences and Save settings since I first started using Photoshop CS5.

    Have you updated Acrobat/ Adobe Reader recently? If so, this update may have introduced a compatibility issue in the globally shared Adobe PDF libraries. Either that or the update never went through properly and now you have a botched Acrobat. Do otehr PDFs from different sources open? If not, that would be a strong hint that you may need to reinstall/ repair Acrobat. It's also possible that you may have enabled sandboxing in the Acrobat Security prefs (or an update did) and thus Acrobat refuses to open certain files, if it can't determine their origins. One more thing that comes to mind: Have you tried saving the file twice in a row under the same name? Sometimes this stuff happens too fast (on SSD drives and such) and Windows doesn't update file security info in time (or your virus scanner can't keep up) and the resulting file is useless. Overwriting it with the same file would then yield correct results.

  • Photoshop Elements now refuses to run

    Photoshop Elements 4.0 now refuses to run on my Intel Macbook (10.4.10). It used to work flawlessly. One day, it just refused to open. The loading screen would come up, then it would crash and say "Photoshop Elements has unexpectedly quit." Nothing changed on my computer between the last time I used and when it started to crash. No new software, no updates etc. I have tried doing these things to fix the problem:
    -Rebooting
    -Deleting the Photoshop Elements .plist file
    -Using a different user account on my computer
    -Repairing permissions on my hard drive
    -Uninstalling Photoshop Elements and reinstalling it
    All of which have failed to work. Nothing I have done has been able to work.

    Thanks, Barbara.
    In no particular order, while the images are from the same camera, I get the same problem with images from other sources scanned in with my Epson 4490 scanner.
    I run diskwarrior from time to time, but not on a regular basis. Is it not a good utility to use?
    I am sure I deleted the twain driver, certainly from the import/export file you mentioned. There is no other mention when I use 'Find'.
    There a lot of caches. I have deleted the Opera cache.

  • Elements 12 suddenly refuses to open. I use daily. What do I do?

    I use Photoshop Elements 12 daily. It seems there IS NO tech support at Adobe itself!  It suddenly refuses to open at all and sends a report to Apple. What do I do? Can't continue to operate my web magazine without it! (Yosemite 10.10.1, 21.5" iMac)

  • Help premiere keeps refusing to open the file im working on!

    it encountered a "serious  error" then refused to open the file again. premiere opens like normal, then asfter i click on the file to open, it asks me where a certain audio file is, then before i can do anything the dialog box crashes, and the file menu no longer lets me access anything, is all deselected, and light gray... HELP! i have a big project due monday with over 80 hours into it. i CANNOT start over!!

    I am running OSX 10.9, i have installed all the updates from apple and adobe. I'm running Premiere6.0.5, I'm not using an external drive.  I deleted one audio file out of the project, but saved immediately after. I also keep getting a message telling me that,"we're sorry a critical error has occurred..." and the program crashes.  I cannot take a screen shot of the dialog box because it keeps crashing so fast i can't even click on anything before it's dissappeared.
    Several of the adobe programs have similar problems after I updated to OSX Mavericks 10.9.... point being I cannot work like this, and seems like adobe isn't doing anything to fix the crashing save and import dialog boxes  in Illustrator, Indesign, and Photoshop. it's really frustrating trying to work when you can't import or save!

  • Application Console refuses to open

    I just downloaded Snow Leopard on my MacBook Pro, (previously from TIger 10.4) and I seem to have a few problems. When I download practically anything, it becomes corrupted. I never had this problem before the upgrade. I switched to 32 bit encryption instead, it seemed to help. Recently, I downloaded Photoshop off of the producers website. As far as i know, it is not corrupted, but when i open it, (I have DiskImageMounter set as default), i receive a warning message that reads:
    The following disk images couldn't be opened:
    Image: Reason:
    Photoshop12LS1. dm not recognized
    after reading online, i decided to refer to the application "Console" to look for errors. It refuses to open. (even after restarting). VLC refuses to open, and on rare occasions i can open QuickTime. Do you think this is a compatibility issue?
    if it helps, I made sure SL would be compatible (Intel Core 2 Duo Processor). So im not sure whats up. any help would be great.

    If you upgraded from Tiger to Snow Leopard, there's no way you could have done that by downloading Snow Leopard. Now, if you meant that you upgraded by installing Snow Leopard on top of Tiger, that's a different issue. Somewhere along the line something got corrupted. Your best bet is to reinstall Snow Leopard; afterwards, launch Software Update and install everything available, repair permissions, and restart. Now, delete the Photoshop item you downloaded and download another.

  • My Talk Talk mail box suddenly refuses to open.

    I have a Tiscali/talk talk provider.
    Suddenly and for no apparent reason the system refuses to open my mail box, it says I have 'undefined' mail (instead of 6 or 17 or whatever)/
    I have spoken to Talk Talk who say most of their customers using your Mozilla Firefox are experiencing this problem, which is being addressed and technicians are working on the problem.
    They have checked out for other contributing factors and apparently there are non.
    So what is causing the problem? Why? And when can I expect to access my emails there. The matter is now getting urgent.
    thank you.

  • Problem with Photoshop CS6. If I open a file using Camera RAW

    I have a new problem with Photoshop CS6.  If I open a file using Camera RAW, and process it as usual, CS6 doesn't want to save it the way it used to.  I don't know if I changed something by accident or not. 
    Here's what happens now: After opening from ACR to CS6 and completinhg all of my work, I choose "Save as..."  The save as window opens showing the file name and format.  The default format seems to be .PSD.  I use the drop down to select .jpg.  The file saves normally as a .jpg.  When I go to close the image from, I get a new prompt asking, "Save changes to Adobe Photoshop document DSC_xxxx.NEF before closing?
    I looked up at the file name in the bar above the work space and noticed that it does NOT change from "DSC_xxxx.NEF" to "DSC_xxxx.jpg" after I have saved the file as a .jpg,in my webesite  but it always used to do that.  This adds a few extra steps when closing a document and it really slows me down.
    In fact, I wouldn't swear to this, but I think it used to save to .jpg by default, without me specifying this.
    I don't see a setting in the preferences for what to use as the default file format for saving, so I don't know where to change it back.
    Any ideas?
    Thanks in advance

  • My Itune's refuses to open, what can I do to fix this problem?

    I've had my iPod mini for almost a year now, and just yesterday my friend had bought me a new iPod. So I plugged it in and it said I needed a higher version of Itunes so, so I went and downloaded that from the site. But after Itunes worked for 15 minutes I had to shut the computer off, and when I came back on Itunes refused to open. Instead I got one of those error messages and it said "iTunes has encountered a problem and needs to close. We are sorry for the inconvenience." But my question was how can iTunes be forced to close if it hasn't even opened? I've tried repairing it several times and have failed. I've also deleted and reinstalled it and have failed. I tried reinstalling it again by using the disk that came with the iPod, and failed. Lastly I did that edwo malware remover scan, but still my Itunes is not opening. How can I fix this problem? Please help.

    Try to go through the set up once again.
    If that doesnt work, check your virus protection and under internet apps or some such thing, make sure itunes is not blocked from the internet.
    Most cases it's not the internet that's the issue it's the program itself, but if this is bugging you, I suggest you at least make sure.
