Photoshop CS 5 12.0.4 stopped opening any images but JPEG's!

Running a MacBook Pro, 17in, 2.93 Dual Core Intel, 8 GB RAM, OS 10.6.8. All programs and plugins are 64 bit compatable and have worked just fine for months and months.
I've been using PS 5 and LR 4.1 for a LONG time. I have several NIK plugins, non new. As of today, Photoshop will NOT open RAW/NEF, TIF, DNG files directly or by sending the file to PS from LR 4.1.
The only update was a month ago when I upgraded ACR to 6.7.0 to read NEF's from my new Nikon D4. PS won't open files from older camera's either.
This JUST started happening today, June 9th! Worked fine June 8th, not today. The message is ALWAYS Photoshop Not Responding.
HELP!!
Alan

Curt, this morning Bridge would freeze and not send images to ACR, except JPG's. I disabled the whole Plugin folder, then just the NIK plugin folder, the exact same results, Photoshop CS5 freezes!
I download Adobe DNG converter 6.5, converted some NEF's to dng's and they still won't open.
I download CS6 & Bridge, ACR 7.1 and it freezes when trying to open anything, including JPG's, so that's worse not better ;~(. Did a complete "uninstall" of PS6. Removed the newest ACR 7.1 and Bridge, went back to original versions for PS 5.
For reasons only known to Adobe or Apple the darn software; LR 4.1 and PS 5 Extended are now working perfectly WITH the plugin's (I removed the "updates" from NIK) which were before the "update"!!
Again Curt, thanks for the advice and I honestly have NO CLUE why the software has choosen to work again... I think a reformat of my hard drive and install of Snow Leopard again is soon going to be necessary ;~(. I hate doing that because trying to find all the serial # for software is tough, at least for me LOL.
I use DataBackup from Prosoft now but I'm thinking of doing a clean BU using TimeMachine. I need a BU that will retain application serial numbers, any idea on that one?? I've gone to my Adobe site and gotten the serials I need there, and I've got them from NIK, but I have a LOT more installed from download (no disc's).

Photoshop CS6 Retail Subscription suddenly will not open any image files

I signed up for a trial subscription and I have 18 days left.
I was using this as recently as yesterday and it was fine.
Even the 'windows' menu shows no open windows BUT the recent places menu shows the files I tried to open.
What could the problem be?

Hi there! Because the forum you originally posted in is for beginners trying to learn the basics of Photoshop, I moved your question to the Photoshop Elements forum, where you'll get more specialized help.

Try resetting preferences. Start PS and immediately hold down ctrl alt shift keys. If fast enough you will get a reset window. File not affected by reinstall.

Reader XI has suddenly stopped loading any images in pdf's. Any idea why?

Reader XI has suddenly stopped loading any images in pdf's. Any idea why?

I tried to got to edit to follow the suggestion of ~graffiti I found that the "Show Large Images" was already checked. I since have found that if I download the .pdf file and then open the download everything appears as it should. Previously, when I clicked on the emailed .pdf file it would automatically open without having to download the file. I'm not sure why it is requiring the extra steps of downloading the and then opening the downloaded file before the images with appear. Any ideas why the extra steps are now required?

Leopard Can't open any Image HELP!!

This is very weird, I've been working fine all these past days since I installed Leopard, but suddenly I am not able to open any image file (giff, tiff, jpeg, even Acrobat files) with my preview image or photoshop, it looks like the file is open, I mean, IT IS OPEN but I CANT SEE ANYTHING, when I click the window toolbar I see that the file is there, but I cant see anything, same thing happend with Photoshop, I see all the layers of the file, I see even the file in the navigator, but I cant see the file itself !!! help, thanks

Sorry that didn't work. Here are some other suggestions.
How big is your Hard Drive, and how much room is left on it? Apple suggests you leave at least 10-15% free at all times, or else weirdness may ensue.
What kind of Install of Leopard did you do? If you did the Upgrade, weirdness may ensue. Back everything up and Archive and Install (preserving all users) or, better, Erase and Install. You can use Time Machine for the backup and reinstall from it. I've done it, and it works.
Also, did you download the 10.5.1 update? If so, did you do it from Software Update (39MB) or Apple Downloads(110MB)? If you didn't install it, go to Apple Downloads and use that one for best results.
Hope some of these help.

PSE does not open any image nor it is possible to open a new file

Hello,
having installed Photoshop Elements 13 for the first time on my Windows 7 Ultimate (64 Bit) computer it is a big disappointment.
I cannot open any image. It does not matter whether it is on a network share or local disk.
Have no deinstalled the program and reinstalled. But the behaviour does not change at all.
In the organizer I can select an image but when I want to transfer it the editor nothing happens.
It is also not possible to create a new empty image.
Anybody else having this behaviour?

I have a LR 3.6 64 bit that refuses to open any images today

I have a LR 3.6 64 bit that refuses to open any images today. Computer restore point created and used , Norton cleaned still not joy any ideas guys?

Rose, the problem is that you've somehow managed to ask Lightroom create a catalog folder with the name of an existing photo file, which as you have seen causes problems in LR3 (the bug was fixed for later releases). The only reliable fix is to reset the Lightroom preferences file (so that it forgets about that invalid catalog, so stops trying to open it). C.frans has already given you a link to tell you how to reset the preferences, but if you need more detailed instructions you can find them here:

Preview can't open any images

Hi all,
Suddenly Preview doesn't work with any images on my computer (stil works fine with PDF). The Preview window is always like this when I try to open any images:
I had tried to remove all the preference files related to Preview under ~/Library/Preferences/, also used Disk Uitility to repair disk permissions but no luck.
Can somebody help me? Thanks

Have you tried starting in Safe Mode and see if the problem still occurs?
Restart holding the "shift" key.
(Expect it to take longer to start this way because it runs a directory check first.)
If this works look in System Preferences > Users & Groups > Login items and disable any third party login items. Also look in /Library/Startup Items. Nothing is put in that folder by default, so anything in there is yours.

Open any image

Hi,
I found some code to open JPGs, but I need to be able to open any image file (or at least both JPG and GIF)... Could anyone please give me some help with this?
FileInputStream fis = new FileInputStream(chooser.getSelectedFile());
JPEGImageDecoder decoder = JPEGCodec.createJPEGDecoder(fis);
img = decoder.decodeAsBufferedImage();
fis.close();
Thanks!!!

A quick and easy way to load images of multiple types (png, jpg, gif etc) is to use the following code:
Image image;
image = Toolkit.getDefaultToolkit().getImage(new URL("file:someimage.png"));
In order for this to work, the image that you want to load has to be in the same directory as the class file that you are running. If the image is somewhere else, such as on the Internet or somewhere else on your harddrive, then simply modify the new URL() portion of the code to reflect the location of your image. If you need to make sure that the image has completely loaded before using it, such as if you want to get its width and height through code, then you would also attach a MediaTracker object to it, like the following:
Image image;
MediaTracker tracker;
image = Toolkit.getDefaultToolkit().getImage(new URL("file:someimage.png"));
tracker = new MediaTracker(this); //The "this" should be something such as the canvas you're using
tracker.addImage(image, 0);
tracker.waitForAll(); //Wait for image to finish loading
Hope that helps.

Photoshop Elements 7 Editor crashes upon opening any image

I have been trying for 2 days to get my Photoshop to work.
I've used PSE7 for years, no issues. Suddenly yesterday, every time I try to open an image in the full editor, I get the "Photoshop has stopped working... check online for a solution or close the program" message.
I tried uninstalling and reinstalling PSE7, rebooting, as well as plenty of other fixes I found on here. Nothing has worked.
I'm on Windows Vista 64 bit.
I tried to call Adobe customer support ALL DAY, since 9am. Between hours of hold time, being told I have to leave a call back number that never gets called back, and getting hung up on by the rudest customer service rep in the history of the world, I am at the end of my rope.
I'm a professional photographer and graphic designer, and I've now lost 2 full days of work time and cannot get a single answer on forums or help on the phone from Adobe. I'm seriously losing it.
Can someone please help me figure out what happened to the program I was perfectly and completely happy with for years so I can get some work done?
Thanks,
Maggie

How do I stop camera raw adjusting contrast and brightness automatically when I open any image

Every time I open in image in camera raw or Photoshop it is applying an automatic contrast and brightness setting. I have tried resetting to defaults with cntrl shft del but it doesn't make a difference. It also when I just flick through thumbnails on bridge. The pics look almost like they have a cartoon like filter on them!!any ideas on how I get it all back to normal it's been great in the past . I use cs3

Short answer, learn how to use the tool...
As for the "auto" adjustments, are you sure that's what's happening or are the images changing based on the differences between what the camera preview and the Camera Raw preview look like? If you have indeed somehow turned on the "Auto" adjustment and saved that out as a Camera Raw default, you can go into the Camera Raw flyout menu and choose the option to Reset Camera Raw Defaults. If however you are talking about the inherent differences between the way your camera renders raw and the way Camera Raw renders it, that's an entirely different discussion...
As for your other question, try rephrasing it as it doesn't mean a thing to me so I have no idea how to answer...
