Photoshop CS2 not working after 10.6.7 update? program error!

Could not complete your request because of a program error. I opened an image RGB and wanted to save it as a CMYK.
Save as and entered new name... thats it! Then the error popped up. The only thing that has changed is the update!
Please help.

If you updated to 10.6.7 then you should (go to your Apple menu at the far left and) check for updates.
There was a problem with some types of Fonts that has been fixed by the Snow Leopard Font update:
http://support.apple.com/kb/DL1377
However, always wait after an OS update (true of Windows too) and see if it causes any problems with 3rd-party software, etc. - PRIOR to updating your system And always, always have a full, known-good backup before you update. Especially for any computer that is used for business purposes !
Last but definitely not least, you should know that Adobe CS2 is a Power-PC only application (circa G4 and G5 processors, before Apple moved to Intel processors), and requires Rosetta (PowerPC emulation).
So you should consider any CS2 application running at all, as fairly miraculous.
CS3 was released four years ago, and provided the first Intel-native ("Universal Binary") versions of the CS-suite applications.
Mac OS 10.6 only runs on Intel-based Macs (ie: Intel processor required).
If you are using Photoshop CS2 for any revenue-generating purposes, then it is (and was) incumbent upon you to properly allocate and budget for
upgrades and you should - nay, must - be running a more current version of the software. If your budget does not allow for newer Adobe CS, then you should have kept a legacy system that can run an older Mac OS, and understand that your workflow is living on borrowed time - and you had best keep several old Macs that can still run an older Mac OS and run your CS2 natively.
In no way shape or form is CS2 supported under Mac OS X 10.6 - certainly not in any official way by Adobe !
You could also be irate about not being able to use your 8-track tape player in your brand new car. I'm exaggerating but not too much.
Please read Adobe's response regarding CS3 (not CS2) and 10.6/Snow Leopard:
http://blogs.adobe.com/jnack/2009/08/adobe_snow_leopard_faq.html
With all of this in mind, you should know that your frustrations with Apple and the unsupported and not-recommended interaction of CS2 and 10.6 are misguided. Best of luck to you !

Drobo not working after 10.5.8 update

My drobo stopped working after 10.5.8 update. Now I lost all my data on the drobo. this doesn't make me happy.

'We are using the USB interface (as opposed to firewire) because we want to share the drive across the network - it's not always about speed.'
This makes absolutely no sense to me.. but maybe I am wrong : Because firewire is much more reliable than USB and manages to keep highest transfer rates (without jumping up and down as USB would do as soon as I/Os go up...) Especially on a Mac ! (only for the latency I am not too sure, but I guess it is similar on fw and USB.. just increase the caching if you stream hd movies on the network...
From my experience, sharing a USB drive on the network is probably much worse.. you can find example on the web.. (Orb, Plex and else will start drop frames when connecting to a USB shared drive.)
I currently use my drobo plugged to my Mini with a fw800 to 400 cable,4*1.5tb hdds, I also share it on the network with gigabit ethernet, and get much better performances than any usb shared drive.
Sorry I do not have any precize measurement, but I can upload or download a 6tb file in about 10minutes over gigabit ethernet, and I guess the bottleneck is now the Drobo controller...
The protocol you use may have an impact as well (afp, smb,...) but whatever you use, I suppose Firewire will be faster.
As a general advice, do not update or upgrade anything in general before you have a backup of your data, this is true for any storage system, Drobo or not.
Oh, and Data redundancy on a raid is not a backup of course.

External monitor Syncmaster 2494SW not working after 10.6.7 update

External monitor Samsung Syncmaster 2494 SW stopped working after 10.6.7 update on 2011 MacBook Pro. I'm using miniDP-DVI adapter. The monitor shown correctly in Display Properties with right modes and name. MackBook recognizes connection but the monitor goes to PowerSave mode (LED indicator blinks).
Safemode boot, SMC reset, PRAM reset did not help.
Exactly the same setup works perfectly under 10.6.6.

HERE IS THE EASY FIX SOLUTION FOR THIS PROBLEM GUYS:
I have an 15inch MacBook Pro that I've just installed Snow Leopard 10.6.3 on.
Prior to this install, I've had it hooked up to my Samsung SyncMaster 2243 via an Apple MDP/VGA adapter and a third party VGA cable. It has been flashing on and off a black screen every now and then for the past 2 years and I googled that it was just a crappy communication between the MBP and the Samsung... but now since installing 10.6.3, the Samsung display just flashes the desktop for a second then turns black for good - occationally flashing analogue/digtal prompt display. Tried everything for hours. Nothing worked, thought I was gonna have to buy a new all Apple VGA lead then came across Michael's above solution. Tried it and it worked IMMEDIATLY!!! And the monitor doesn't flash black anymore AT ALL!! Whoo-hoo!! Thanks heaps.
WHAT TO DO TO FIX:
Go to => System Preferences => Energy Saver => change graphic settings to Higher Performace.
Cheers!!

IPod touch not working after 5.0.1iOS update

It seems like a lot of people are having issues after the new 5.0.1iOS update. I want to share my frustration and what problems I'm facing. After the update my ipod won't sync properly. It freezes my computer and then my computer shuts down everytime I have my ipod connected to my computer. My music and apps on my iPod are like ghosts they are visible but do NOT work after being pressed. I tried resetting the ipod, same problem. I uninstalled and reinstalled iTunes, same problem. There is only problems with my computer when the iPod is plugged into the computer and trying to update. I am so ANGRY because I love my iPod and I can't use it to listen to music or communicate with my family and friends. I hope Apple will help all of us soon and fix these HUGE bugs, and FAST.

Have you tried the sandard fixes:
- Reset. Nothing will be lost
Reset iPod touch: Hold down the On/Off button and the Home button at the same time for at
least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears
- Retore from backup
- Restore to factory defaults/new iPod.

Adobe Photoshop Could not complete your request because of a program error

I brought home a Photoshop CC file from work to work on at home. It opened fine, other than some missing fonts which I then installed. I worked on the file for a while and then went to "Save As" a new version. I got a dialog box saying "Could not complete your request because of a program error." I tried "Save" instead of "Save As" and got the same result. I tried saving it to different locations, but I keep getting the same error message. I have been using Photoshop CC for almost a year now and have never had this problem. Does anyone have a fix?
The software is Adobe Photoshop CC v14.2.1 x64, and the OS is 10.7.4. Thanks to anyone who can help!

Did you reset your Preferences and Photoshop tools. Photoshop Preferences are not removed with an un-install and an Install does not install preferences. Preferences are created for a user id when a user ID start Photoshop and there are no preferences for the user ID.

PLEASE HELP!!1

@ Talha1997,
Please follow the below mentioned steps let me know if they work:
1. Uninstall current Ps CC app, If there are any issues with CC uninstall then run the Cleaner tool to remove Ps CC :http://www.adobe.com/support/contact/cscleanertool.html .
2. Restart your system
2. Install Ps CC app from Creative Cloud
3. Do not launch Ps
4. Update to 14.1.2 via the Creative Cloud desktop application
5. Once the updates are successfully applied, Launch Ps CC to verify.
If it does not work please let me know, I would try to resolve it over a connect session.
Regards,
Ashutosh

Photoshop CS4 not working after installing on new machine

Hi! I'm hoping someone here may have encountered this issue and can help.
I switched from a 32-bit PC to a Mac running Windows 7 (64-bit) via Parallels. I installed CS4 and InDesign/ Acrobat are working fine but Photoshop only opens and lets me create but can't save any newly created file nor open anuything including JPGs and PSDs. The installation gave me two Photoshop versions, one says Photoshop 64 bit, and they're both saying "could not complete command because of a program error" when trying to save or "could not complete your request because it is not the right kind of document" when trying to open. I installed the new patch just to be sure. Any ideas?

I'll start by saying I don't know much about Parallels, as I use VMware myself.
Are you trying to access the files across some kind of special connection to the files in your host's file system?
You may well have a permissions issue. You need to read up on how Parallels facilitates access of your hard drive files by the Windows user who's logged-in, and what permissions you have to set up to allow that user to access them freely.

Photoshop cs2 not working

Ive just found out after buying and installing mountain lion that photoshop cs2 isnt compatible !!!
Obviously slightly annoyed but staying calm
Is there any easy workaround for this or does anyone know if I can get refunded by apple and return to snow leopard ?
Cant justify spending hundreds of pounds more on updating photoshop as I dont need to but its essential for my business !
Any help would be great !

Welcome to Apple Support Communities
You should always check that your applications are supported before upgrading Mac OS X. See > http://www.roaringapps.com
Now, you can install Snow Leopard on a second partition and keep Mountain Lion in the first one. The virtual machine isn't a valid option because Photoshop requires the use of the GPU.
To do this, first open Disk Utility and create a volume. See > http://pondini.org/OSX/DU3.html
Then, insert the Snow Leopard DVD and hold the C key while your Mac is starting. Follow the steps to install OS X Snow Leopard on the second partition, and install Photoshop.
If you want to switch between Snow Leopard and Mountain Lion, hold the Option (Alt) key while your Mac is starting. If you want to set the startup disk, go to System Preferences > Startup Disk

Canon Lide 80 - not working after 10.5.8 update

Hi,
Wondered if anyone has a workaround for getting a Canon Lide 80 scanner to scan using Photoshop Elements 6, it worked in OS X v10.5.7 previously as I copied the latest ScanGear CS 7.2X plugin into the Photoshop Elements plug-in folder then ran Elements through Rosetta and it scanned with no problems however this now does not work.
The plug-in is still selectable when using PSE6 but I get the following message "The necessary file could be missing or damaged, or the settings are incorrect. Reinstall the scanner driver. Scanner driver will be closed"
I have made sure I have the latest plug-in but to no avail. Any assistance would be greatly appreciated.
Cheers
Andrew

Can't speak specifically to Photoshop Elements, but my LiDE 80 works fine on 10.5.8 using both Canon's CanoScan application as well as VueScan, both of which use the same plug-in architecture as Photoshop.
This is on a MacBook (Santa Rosa) after updating to Leopard 10.5.8 (it was previously running 10.5.4, where the scanner also worked).
I am using the latest ScanGear driver and CanoScan Toolbox installs from Canon's US support website, where the
filenames are LiDE80_7252MXEN.dmg and CSTb4130MXE.dmg respectively (the Canon site shows an update date of July '09, but in actuality none of the files have been updated since 2005).
I didn't do anything special -- the scanner continued working normally after the system update.
What I'd try is remove the driver (just to be safe, download & use Canon's driver removal utility from the same download page), search & nuke any files called Scangear on the machine (I'd also remove CanoScan if you have it installed), then reinstall from scratch.

ISight Not Working After Adobe Flash Player Update

I went on Chatroulette and the website said I needed to update my flash player. So I did. However, after I did, iSight does not work now on the internet. When it's selected as the video source, it just shows a ManyCam logo, which ManyCam has been deleted off my computer a long time ago, so I am unsure why. I can't get any video feed to work. iSight does work for Photoshop and FaceTime. How can I get iSight to work again?

If it doesn't work on a particular web site but functions properly everywhere else then suspect that the web site has a problem not you.
