Photoshop cs 4 wont run after installation on mac book pro

I recently brought the adobe design premium package with flash, illustrator, indesign, photoshop etc...
after installation all other application works but just photoshop, it just wont start at all...
it will pop up on the deck for a second or two and just disappear. the progra wont run at all. other applications like illustrator, indesign etc... all work just fine but just not photoshop... i dont get it what's wrong. no error or anything. just pop up and then disappear.
the spec of my macbook pro
mac osx 10.6.2
2.53 ghz intel core 2 duo
4 gb 1067 mhz ddr3

So have you done the basics?
Toss the PS folder and run the installer again?
Run the updater from an app you can open? (this will update all)
etc...

  • Adobe slowed down after running fine on a Mac Book Pro Photoshop settings have been reset

    adobe slowed down after running fine on a Mac Book Pro.   Adobe Settings have been Reset

    Hello Gener7,
         I did try everything on the FAQ page (all steps) I also did them a few more times with "Adobe help" walking me through 2 more times.  I just don't get it, I have been on with Adobe on some days up to 5 hours at a time for over a month now.  I think it must be something with the installation disc but they say no, no, switchboard is just not working on my OS X 10.9.4.  I even took the computer into the apple store here and had them look it over, reinstall everything and they say it's the Adobe software.
         Thank you very much for your help, it's nice to know someone is reading this :-)  I do work around this by saving the files and reopening them in the next program I need but everyone in class is always waiting on me, (it sucks) and I just think it should work.  Hope you have a good day and I will put an update on here if this is ever figured out.
    Thanks one more time :-)

  • All my Photos disappeared after I saved a photo from an email from my wife. I am running Mountain lion on Mac book pro 2012, help. What did I do wrong?

    All my Photos disappeared after I saved a photo to Iphoto from an email from my wife. I am running Mountain lion on Mac book pro 2012, help. What did I do wrong?

    Apply the two fixes below in order as needed:
    Fix #1
    Launch iPhoto with the Command+Option keys held down and rebuild the library.
    Since only one option can be run at a time start with Option #3, followed by #4 and then #1 as needed.
    Fix #2
    Using iPhoto Library Manager  to Rebuild Your iPhoto Library
    1 - download iPhoto Library Manager and launch.
    2 - click on the Add Library button, navigate to your Home/Pictures folder and select your iPhoto Library folder.
    3 - Now that the library is listed in the left hand pane of iPLM, click on your library and go to the File ➙ Rebuild Library menu option.
    4 - In the next  window name the new library and select the location you want it to be placed.
    5 - Click on the Create button.
    Note: This creates a new library based on the LIbraryData.xml file in the library and will recover Events, Albums, keywords, titles and comments.  However, books, calendars, cards and slideshows will be lost. The original library will be left untouched for further attempts at fixing the problem or in case the rebuilt library is not satisfactory.

  • After updating my mac book pro to the osx yosemite.am getting some issues after starting up.a soon as it gets on the destop the screen start blinkingand i cant do anything

    After updating my mac book pro to the osx yosemite.am getting some issues after starting up.as soon as it gets on the destop the screen start blinking and i cant do anything.Please help me!

    Please read this whole message before doing anything.
    This procedure is a diagnostic test. It’s unlikely to solve your problem. Don’t be disappointed when you find that nothing has changed after you complete it.
    The purpose of the test is to determine whether the problem is caused by third-party software that loads automatically at startup or login, by a peripheral device, by a font conflict, or by corruption of the file system or of certain system caches.
    Disconnect all wired peripherals except those needed for the test, and remove all aftermarket expansion cards, if applicable. Start up in safe mode and log in to the account with the problem. You must hold down the shift key twice: once when you turn on the computer, and again when you log in.
    Note: If FileVault is enabled, or if a firmware password is set, or if the startup volume is a Fusion Drive or a software RAID, you can’t do this. Ask for further instructions.
    Safe mode is much slower to start up and run than normal, with limited graphics performance, and some things won’t work at all, including sound output and Wi-Fi on certain models. The next normal startup may also be somewhat slow.
    The login screen appears even if you usually login automatically. You must know your login password in order to log in. If you’ve forgotten the password, you will need to reset it before you begin.
    Test while in safe mode. Same problem?
    After testing, restart as usual (not in safe mode) and verify that you still have the problem. Post the results of the test.

  • Im running parallels on my mac book pro. How do you get cds to come up on the mac side instead of the windows?

    I am currently running parallel on my mac book pro every time I put in a cd the windows side takes over. I want it to come up in the mac side. Can you tell me how to change the settings to accomplish that. Everything else like thumb drives etc. the computer will ask what side I want to use.

    Have you deleted it from your gmail account in google

  • Lightroom CC wont startup after installation on mac

    lightroom CC wont startup after installation on both my mac's, it only hows a splash screen at startup.
    I have tried to restart the computer
    Anybody know what to do ?

    I'm having the same issue and the log out and back in trick is not working for me.
    I've just installed and when I try and launch the application, i see the splash screen for a split second and then the application crashes.
    It is happening on both of my Retina MacBook Pros.
    One is: Late 2013 Retina 15" MBP - 2.6 i7 - 16GB RAM - 1TB SSD - NVIDIA GeForce GT 750M 2GB
    The other is Early 2013 Retina 15" MBP - 2.7 i7 - 16GB RAM - 256 SSD - NVIDIA GeForce GT 650M 1GB
    Same behavior on both.
    I've uninstalled and reinstalled. I've trashed pref files. Not sure what else to do.

  • Will i be able to run windows 7 on mac book pro 15inch with retina display?

    plzzz help me as i am looking to buy asap

    In addition to installing Windows in Boot Camp so that it will run instead of Mac OS X, you can also install Windows as a Virtual Machine so that Windows and the Mac OS can run at the same time. To use a Virtual Machine, you'd need software such as VMware Fusion, Parallels, or Virtual Box.
    Note, however, that you may have some difficulty finding Windows 7 for sale. You may be stuck with Windows 8.1.

  • How do I get my CS3 to run on my new Mac Book Pro? The License seems to be tied to my older mac.

    I have an old iMac, with my Adobe Suite on it. I am now using a MacBook Pro Retina as my primary computer and can not get my Photoshop CS3 to run on it.
    The license seems to be tied to my old iMac. How do I get this to work? ---without spending more $$ THANKS!

    Try Adobe's serial number chat first.
    http://helpx.adobe.com/x-productkb/global/service1.html
    Also if you can't find your old serial number and only have the CS3 upgrade serial, Adobe can bypass this using a "challenge code".
    Error "This serial number is not for a qualifying product" | CS6, CS5.5, CS5
    Good luck, let me know if that solved it.
