Photoshop CS3 crashes with a Network Printer

Regarding issue kb402704:
Our company only uses network printers. It is completely ridiculous that we have to set the Adobe printer as our default printer in order for Photoshop to run without crashing. We pay all this money for CS3 and your only fix is to set a different printer as default. This is a huge bug that should be looked at. Kinda stupid that CS2 doesnt have this problem with the EXACT same printer.

There are some issues with some users of network printers. The problem
is that it's hit or miss and not easily reproducible. I'm using a
network printer as my default with no problems at all.
I'll also point out that this is a user to user forum, not a direct link
to Adobe. You're simply ranting at other users.

Photoshop CS3 Crashing with Snow Leopard

Photoshop CS3 keeps crashing on my if I try to do anything related to the animation window.
I create website ads in this program so I really need this to work.
I can't do anything in photoshop if I have the animation window open, however I can edit photos and things without an animation file & window open.
I've tried reinstalling the Creative Suite 3 Premium a few times and deleting my preferences files for the entire suite and nothing has solved the problem.
Someone have any idea of a fix? Thanks.

Photoshop CS3 crashes when I try to print from Epson R2400

Hi,
For no reason that I can see, when I try to print from my Epson R2400, Photoshop CS3 crashes.
It was working fine up to yesterday with no issues.
I have re installed the drivers etc but no use.
I also cannot choose Printer Manages Colors, as it is now greyed out.
When the the Printer dialogue opens and I click on the Page Set up I get the Error that "Photoshop CS3 has encountered a problem and needs to close"
Any ideas please?

Thanks for the replies.
I understand now that the procedure is probably the reason.
I was just experimenting as LAB colours are colours we see through our eyes, while RGB, CMYK etc are "computer" colours and so I use LAB colours a lot, before switching back to RGB.
I normally switch to LAB mode and click on the Lightness channel, then play with adjustments of that channel. This time I decided to mess around and see what would happen if I removed all channels except the Lightness one....
Converting to greyscale for me is not enough unfortunately and LAB B+W provides much better contrast and tone than hitting CTRL+Shift+U to greyscale.
Again, I understand what you say, my point being though that Photoshop should not crash because I incorrectly remove the channels, perhaps a warning to tell me I can't do it would be better.
I'll pass this onto Adobe anyway.
cheers

Photoshop CS5 crashes when I click "Print". I have a Mac with Yosemite OS, Epson workforce 40 printer, latest driver. I have reset Photoshop's preferences.

Thank you for any suggestions!

Thanks again for your suggestion about Photoshop crashing since
trying to print with Yosemite. I did go to the Adobe site, then the Apple Apps,
and downloaded the new driver for the Epson Workforce 40 printer. Computer
restarted. Unfortunately, Photoshop still crashes. But I appreciate your idea, and
seems it should have worked. Happy Holidays!

Photoshop CS3 crashes on startup in Win 7 Prof 64 bit

Hello everyone,
I'm not sure if this particular problem has been tackled before, if it has, I apologise in advance for double posting!
I have Photoshop CS3 as part of the Master Collection that I upgraded to from the old Macromedia Studio MX. But recently, Photoshop CS3 crashes on start-up and returns the following error: "Adobe Photoshop CS3 has stopped working"
I am running it on Windows 7 Professional 64-bit on a system with the following specs:
CPU: Intel® Core™i7 Processor Extreme Edition i7-975 (3.33GHz
RAM: 12 GB
Graphics Card: 2GB ATI RADEON™ HD 5970 PCI EXPRESS - DirectX® 11
HDD: 2x 500 GB
I tried running it under various compatibility modes, but alas, no luck - stops right at the same problem.
I've noticed that it crashes where the loading screen says 'building TWAIN Menus'. The software has been working without a hitch righ up until i tried installing my drivers for my old Dell all in one printer/scanner. These DID have compatibility issues, but I cant find it anywhere on my system to remove them. Or I might;ve removed them when applying a fix to remove it.
So I guess, it's the scanner software that is doing it. (hence I might've answered my own question).
Has anyone experienced this problem? perhaps even with thier own printer/scanners etc? Any ideas how this might be resolved?
Any advice or help would be appreciated, thanks in advance! :-)

You should be able to remove the drivers in Device Manager – or just uninstall the Dell all-in-one.
You can also disable the TWAIN plug-in by putting a tilde in front of its name.
Fantastic! Puting the tilde on the front of the twain plug-in has sorted it. At least it's working until I can get the drivers off. I tried disabling the drivers, no luck, tried removing from device manager, still no luck. Thats something I'll need to sift through the Dell forums for.
But thankfully, Photoshop now boot and works. Thanks guys!

Photoshop CS3 crashes when saving MAC OSX

Having problems with Photoshop CS3 crashing (Photoshop unexpectedly quit) when trying to save a file. Go to Photoshop/Preferences/File Handling/uncheck Version Cue. Seems that Version Cue is causing a lot of problems.

It always has. :/ It's an old story.

Anyone know why Adobe X & Adobe XI Crashes my shared network printer driver when printing a PDF

Anyone know why Adobe X & Adobe XI Crashes my shared network printer driver when printing on a domain, this only happens when I print a PDF.
I then have to restart the print spooler to get my printouts sent to the printer. I am using a Windows 7 32 & 64 bit environment on a domain. Users who aren't on the domain experience no issues and their printer drivers remain online and not grayed out.
When I print a PDF using Foxit Reader or Nitro PDF then all works fine, the moment I open a PDF using Adobe Reader X or XI then the shared network printer driver bombs out and I am back restarting the print spooler. If we roll back to Adobe 9 then we dont have any issues.
When you create a local printer driver all works fine, the problem is we don't encourage local printer drivers due to security.
We use Ricoh printer drivers, the MPC5501 PCL5C, driver version 1.2.0.0 with PDK version 12.65. We have also tried the PCL6 printer driver and Universal printer driver. All give the same result. The printer uses Winiprint Print processor using RAW as the default data type.
We have contacted Adobe Global Support who advised that they cannot assist with this query as this is on a Domain environment and we have to contact our IT Department.
We would really appreciate some professional help here to get a fix for this issue in order to address potential future occurance's

Try to turn off any video acceleration on your graphic driver for your graphics card.

Photoshop CS3 crashes on "save as" command

Hi all,
I'm running Photoshop CS 3 edition on Leopard. Photoshop crashes every time I try to "save as". Has anyone else experienced this issue? I have 2 gigs of ram on a new iMac.
Thanks,
John

I too am having the same issue with Photoshop CS3 crashing everytime I SAVE or SAVE AS, and when I choose File>open while the programs is running.
I am running
Mac OS X 10.4.11
Mac Book Pro 2.33 GHz Intel Core 2 Duo
2GB RAM
I had been running the program successfully for over six months until a couple days ago.
I have verified/repaired permissions, reinstalled the entire Creative Suite, trashed preferences and reduced memory usage all with no luck.

Photoshop CS3 crashing on Save for Web & Devices

Then manually remove the prefs by reading this:

Photoshop cs3 crashed while i was working on a file...

photoshop cs3 crashed while i was working on a file. i checked the temp folder and found a file that was modified the day it crashed. there is no extension and when i tried to open it in photoshop it said that it "could not complete my request because the file is in use or left open"... is my file hosed or is there a way to recover it? i was working on it for hours and like a dummy forgot to save it

Josh,
Someone had posted a link to such a program, as Mike mentioned. It was "supposed" to be able to dissect and restore from PS TMP files. I do not have a link, and also do not know the $, nor how effective this might be. I'd do a search of this forum, trying words like PS TMP, and the like. It was not THAT long ago. Again, have no experience with it (or any other TMP reclamation apps.). Might be worth a try.
All other comments on doing various forms of Save/Save_As are good ones. I'd incorporate those into my workflow, if you have not already.
You might want to look at Stellar-Phoenix for file recovery. Depending on where you were, when the crash happened, you might be able to locate your older
b image
file on your HDD - or, you might not. Stellar-Phoenix had a trial. Seems that it would scan your HDD, but only the paid version would recover, if found. See if it finds something of use. I'd also do this,
b before
anything else overwrites that/those sector(s) on your HDD . Probably not going to help, but you never know. Just to be clear, Stellar-Phoenix is a data recovery tool and is NOT a PS TMP file extractor.
Sorry about your misfortune and good luck,
Hunt

Photoshop CS4 crashes with Filemaker Pro 8.5 open

Normally, continuous crashes in a new Adobe application results in a fairly quick fix in the form of an update. I let the application report the error codes via the automated submission process. However, I have had this problem for months now without any apparent remedy. I use Filemaker Pro 8.5 on Windows XP SP3 for all my invoicing and production scheduling. Photoshop CS4 will crash twice trying to run with Filemaker Pro open, however on the third try, it will run, but then Filemaker Pro will be frozen and require Ctrl-Alt-Delete force close to access again. I cannot use Filemaker Pro 9 or 10 due to the 8.5 requirements of the VERY expensive invoicing system.
Hopefully Adobe techs lurk these forums and will report attempt to resolve this issue.
Also, ONLY the Adobe website will freeze in my IE 8.0.6001 browser. I had to use Firefox 3.0.11 to access the website and then the forum. I see other users below this entry are reporting the same issue without a solution. I tried and tried again and waited. Apparently there is an issue related to the Flash banner, whereas all else will load, but the browser will hang up on the animation load. It eventually works, but not without long delay and browser hang up.

Adobe After Effects CS3 crashes with Codecs such as Motion JPEG and Avid DnxHD

Hey guys, I'm new here
I'm having a problem with After Effects CS3 crashing with .mov files (exported from Adobe Premiere) with codecs such as Motion Jpeg A and Avid's DnxHD. Its driving me crazy.
If I import a Motion Jpeg A file, AE crashes immediately. If I import a DnxHD file that works fine with Premiere, it seems to import ok. However, when I try to play it in AE it comes up as a plain white... thing. If I move the slider across it previews one or two frames before AE crashes. Its driving me crazy.
AE works ok with H.164 and animation files.
I'm reinstalled quicktime and Avids codecs, uninstalled ffdshow, disabled Open GL and multiprocessing, changed between 10bit and 8bit (whatever that is all about) with the dnxhd and I'm really stumped. If I can get Dnxhd working I'm fine with that. I thought I'd mention the Motion Jpeg A codec to see if they're a result of the same problem.
I've also tried Avid's RGB packed Codec with the same results.
I'm running Windows Xp 32 bit with 3gbs of ram, a GeForce 8600 gt with a Intel Pentium Duo Core Processor 2.00 GHZ.
Can anyone help me please?

I'm mistaken, Animation files don't work either!
I tried that with no luck. I even tried a few more Quicktime codecs with the same results.
Only H.164 and some png compressed .mov files seem to work. Very frustrating.
I'm surprised thats the case - I am defintley due for an upgrade. Even though this system seems to work ok, struggling a little bit with HD .mov files but yeah, I've been planning a new system for a while.

Photoshop CS5 crashes when trying to print. I recently updated to Mac OSX Mavericks. Help?

Hi, Chris. Thanks for giving this query a look. I have the same problem. All documents print on my HP Deskjet 932C except Photoshop files since I updated to Mavericks.
My CS5 version is 9.0 x64. Mavericks is 10.9.4.
I checked the HP drivers and HP doesn't have one for OS X newer than 10.4.
I tried printing out the detailed report (very long!) and this page rejected the reply as spam. Can we provide the text as an attachment?
