Photoshop crashes at the "import pdf" dialog, and causes the OS to be unstable.

After using InDesign and Photoshop for some time... Photoshop crashes at the "import pdf" dialog, and causes the entire system to be slow and unstable.
I have recently upgraded to CS6 from CS3. I'm using the current version of OSX Mountain Lion on an early 2008 Mac Pro.

An application cannot bring down the operating system on Mac or Windows unless something is very, very wrong with the system.
If you did an upgrade install of Mountain Lion my first suggestion would be to back up your data, deactivate your applications and then do a clean install.

    I have Adobe Photoshop Elements 10 plus I create PDF files for work some are scan pdf docs. When I install Photoshop Elements 10 it DOES convert all the PDF files to Photoshop Elements-10 Docs. it even changes and shows the PSE-10 Icon. So I am alway installing PSE-10 or uninstalling it. If I send the  PDF file that has been automatically converted to a PSE-10 the person I send the file to can not open it because they do not have PSE-10. What can I do to stop PSE-10 from converting my PDF files? Don't tell me to upgrade PSE-10 I tried their on-line program and  it is too advance for a hobby photographer like myself and their Help Desk is impossible to reach.

  • What does the open file dialog do 'under the hood' and is there a way to simulate it

    What does the open file dialog do 'under the hood' and is there a way to simulate it?
    I have a bug in my code (that I've posted about before, here) which I can't fix at the moment, but I do have a workaround.
    Briefly, the bug:
    I call a dll from a function node, to initialise and run a spectrometer. If I start up the PC, LabVIEW and run my vi the code runs without complaint, the first call to the dll to initialise the spectrometer doesn;t return an error but the spectrometer is not detected either.
    I've tried various solutions, see the link above, and none work
    The workaround:
    If, at any time before running the code containing the function node I open an 'open file' dialog window, select the dll and click ok/hit enter then everything is fine. When I run the main code the spectrometer is detected.
    I use an express vi to open the file dialog, I specify the start path and file name as constant inputs and just click ok/hit return when the dialog pops up. I don't do anything with the dialog outputs. In fact the vi that contains the open file dialog can be run before the project containing the bug is even open.
    I have to do this everytime I turn the PC on.
    So, either
    1) Can somewone suggest a fix for the original bug?
    2) What is the easiest way to simulate the enter keypress when the open file dialog pops up
    or
    3) Can someone tell me what the open file dialog does under the hood that somehow causes the dll to work and can it be simulated in straight LabVIEW
    I suspect that the dll itself is dodgy ( I have in the past talked to the supplier but not got very far, and I will try again but I would like a quick, temporary solution too). I'm guessing that the file dialog is making some kind of check on the file, and possibly registering its presence with the OS (winXP). I tried using the file/folder exists vi to see if checking the file like that worked but no luck.
    Any help greatly appreciated.

    Hi David
    I am very conscious about thread hijacking but this sounded like my issue so I hope you dont mind me asking about your issue. I am hoping that you have a spectrometer from the same vendor as me and its not just me seeing an Error 1097 issue. My spectrometer is from a company called Stellarnet.
    So far I have unable to get it to work with other VIs. There is one condition where I can get it to work but its no good for me.
    Case 1
    I open the VI in a fresh labview environment with no other VIs in memory. The code runs with no issue.
    Case 2
    Labview is not opened. I double click the spectrometer VI in windows explorer.  The VI opens but it fails to run resulting in Error 1097. Personally, I dont see the difference between this and Case 1 above and yet it fails.
    Case 3
    If I already have other VI's in memory and try to load the spectrometer VI and run it fails with Error 1097. This case is the one that most important to me. I have a test executive that will load test VIs dynamically and I can't get this to work. Same problem Error 1097.
    I wanted to share what I have seen with you and to let you know that maybe somebody else has the same issue. I am convinced its the DLL but the vendor dis-agreed saying it was LabVIEW. I couldn't convince him otherwise.
    Thanks in advance

  • How to convert Smart Form into PDF format and return the result in BAPI?

    I want to convert a Smart Form into PDF format and return the result in BAPI.
    can anyone tell me how it can be done with related example
    regards
    pranay

    hi,
    smart form to pdf--
    All you have to do is call your SF to get OTF and then concert it to PDF. Works like charm:
    DATA: p_output_options TYPE ssfcompop,
    p_control_parameters TYPE ssfctrlop.
    p_control_parameters-no_dialog = 'X'.
    p_control_parameters-getotf = 'X'.
    CALL FUNCTION v_func_name "call your smartform
    EXPORTING
    output_options = p_output_options
    control_parameters = p_control_parameters
    IMPORTING
    job_output_info = s_job_output_info.
    call function 'CONVERT_OTF_2_PDF'
    tables
    otf = s_job_output_info-otfdata
    lines = t_pdf
    and if u need more u can check below links also

  • Hello. Layer masks aren't working with Photoshop CC... The brushes gave out, and now the gradients too. Anyone else have this problem?

    Hello. Layer masks aren't working with Photoshop CC... The brushes gave out, and now the gradients too. Anyone else have this problem?
    Will someone from Adobe please answer if this is a bug.. as I've seen other users post the same issue.
    thanks!

    I'm experiencing the same issue too. I can't see to use the brush in my clipping mask the same way. It works for a moment, then several minutes in to production it ends up crashing.
    I hope this issue is resolved soon. It's definitely frustrating and delaying my production time.

  • I have tried loading 3 different cds that I just bought into Itunes and I click the import cd button and it goes through the motions of importing the cds, but when I go to my library none of these cds is there.  Help, please!

    I have tried loading 3 different cds that I recently purchased into Itunes.  I click the import cd button and Itunes goes through the motion of copying and importing the cds, but the songs are not in my music library.  I have searched everywhere to find where these cds might be, but to no avail.  Could really use some help here.  Never used to have this problem.

    Are they in the relevant artist & album folders when you look via Windows Explorer. If so something may have gone wrong with the index of the Music playlist. Download the current iTunes Free Single of the Week. I know it sounds odd, but it should fix the problem.
    If that doesn't work close iTunes and delete the hidden file sentinel from inside the main iTunes folder, then start iTunes again. It should run a consistency check when it starts up.

  • To retrieve the PRT document (a PDF file) and insert the doc in PM order

    Hello guys,
    I have a challenging task in from printing as follows,
    By using TC: IW3D we get print preview of PM Order Set (PM Print Program: YIPRJT01), currently the PRT document number prints in the PM Order. Now we have to insert the PRT documents (a PDF file) into the PM Order set rather than printing the PRT document number ( By using TC: IW33 by going OPERTIONAL TAB we will get the PRT document(a PDF file))
    The requirement is to retrieve the PRT document (a PDF file) and insert the document in PM  order set with out navigating separately by using the TC: IW33.
    If you run the script in the print preview we can able to see PM the order set along with the PRT document (a PDF file).
    Thanks & Regards
    Vishnu

    I'm also trying to print PRT document with shop papers and still not able to do so. I selected "P" for print on the control key and it should print but still didn't print.
    If I understand it right, I think you are trying to do the same.
    Have you resolved this issue ?
    Thank you,
    Sam

  • I emailed a PDF form and when the receiver opens it, the document has errors on it. How do I fix this problem?

    I emailed a PDF file and when the receiver opened it there were errors in the file. Words on the document appeared different and weren't what they were supposed to be. How do I fix this problem?

    What did the errors say? Can you post a copy of the pdf so we can test out. The presets embed the font, but might be a unicode issue, or one of the few fonts which are copyrighted and do not allow embedding.
    What application was the pdf was created from, what settings were used, and if you can outline the fonts. What font or font(s) are the ones reflowing?

  • HT5071 It is possible for me to distribute my book as a PDF/word and on the Ibooks app?

    So I am currently writing a book, and I am curious to know if it is possible to distribute my book as a PDF/word and on the Ibooks app store. I intend on making the book a free download.

    It's your content - you can distribute as you like, but as noted, only via the store when in .ibooks format. As a PDF, you can do whatever you want with it.

  • How is the 'import-packages' information saved in the database, and how long?

    Hello,
    I am  developping a ECM Connector for Adobe LiveCycle ES, which is a customized component.
    1 - Who should I contact to have some specific support  ?
    There is no detailed information yet on this on the adobe site  (http://livedocs.adobe.com/livecycle/8.2/programLC/programmer/help/wwhelp/wwhimpl/js/html/w whelp.htm?href=000931.html&accessible=true) .
    If you  think that I should address my problem to another department of Adobe, please  tell me which department?
    I give you another description of my problem. In fact, I have  been investigating on it.
    2 - If I  put this in my component.xml file, in step  1:
    <component-id>com.rsd.adobe.livecycle.RSDFoldersConnector</component-id>
    <version>1.0</version>
    <import-packages><package  version="1.0">com.rsd.simpleApiFolders</package>  </import-packages>
    If I change the  version to 1.1 and remove the  'import-packages' (in step 2) , will the new component need the  com.rsd.simpleApiFolders package. It seems that is still needs it.
    3 - How is the  'import-packages' information saved in the  database, and how  long?
    In  fact, on thursday, I used 'import-packages'  to make a test. And since them, I  can not deploy any of my components.
    LiveCycle throws a  ClassNotFoundException.
    ALC-DSC-000-000: com.adobe.idp.dsc.DSCRuntimeException:  Internal error.
    [java] at  com.adobe.idp.dsc.registry.component.impl.ComponentRegistryImpl$6.doInTransaction(Compone ntRegistryImpl.java:338)
    ... Caused  by: java.lang.ClassNotFoundException: http-0.0.0.0-8080-1Class name  com.rsd.simpleApiFolders.Context from package com.rsd.simpleApiFolders not found.
    [java] at  com.adobe.idp.dsc.DSContainerSearchPolicy.searchClassUsingParentFirst(DSContainerSearchPo licy.java:234)
    Thank you in advance
    Regards.

    1 - Who should I contact to have some specific support  ?
    That would depend on your Adobe support contract and if your organization has a TAM assigned.  You should check with your organization's Adobe contact and see what support options your organization has purchased.
    Having said that, this forum has a few people that may be able to help (but the forum does not have a SLA associated with it)
    2 - If I  put this in my component.xml file, in step  1:
    <component-id>com.rsd.adobe.livecycle.RSDFoldersConnector</component-id>
    <version>1.0</version>
    <import-packages><package  version="1.0">com.rsd.simpleApiFolders</package>  </import-packages>
    If I change the  version to 1.1 and remove the  'import-packages' (in step 2) , will the new component need the  com.rsd.simpleApiFolders package. It seems that is still needs it.If your component class needs the simpleApiFolders class then yes, you still need it.  Think of import-packages like a class-path statement (but with packages and not jars).  Its not physically moving the package into your application, but allowing you to access it from another container.
    3 - How is the  'import-packages' information saved in the  database, and how  long?
    As far as I know they are not imported into the database. As I stated above, I believe that the import-packages just allows you to point to classes that are in the app server's classpath, but are not physically in you component jar file.  As long as that class is in the app server class-path (or in the Adobe EAR file) then you should be able to access it.  Is the jar file containing the simpleApiFolders class in the app server's lib directory?

  • If I import audio books into the music section of itunes it lists the books as albums and all the chapters as tracks fine when I sync them to my ipod classic, but not if I import them as audiobooks, any ideas please?

    If I import audio books into the music section of itunes it lists the books as albums and all the chapters as tracks fine when I sync them to my ipod classic, but not if I import them as audiobooks and then sync them, any ideas please?

    If you import the audiobook as an audiobook to your iTunes Library, it will be listed in the Books section of your Library. You may need to turn on Books in order to see them. If you cannot see the File/Edit... etc. menu, use CTRL B on your keyboard to make that menu bar appear. Then go to Edit/Preferences>Books and put a tick in the box.
    But, if the imported audiobook shows up in the Music section of your iTunes Library, highglight the files (in iTunes) and select File/Get Info/Options/Media Kind>Audiobook. These files will now transfer to the Books section of iTunes.
    Once on an iPod Classic, look under the Audiobooks menu. Again, you may need to change the settings in the Settings menus, in order to have the Audiobooks option shown on the Main Menu and/or the Music Menu.
