Photoshop CS3 error saving files - Could not save ... because the fileis already in use or was left

I have a problem with Adobe Photoshop CS3 that only started happening last night. Heres a description of the problem.
When I try and save a Photoshop file, I get the following error message:-
Could not save (filename). because the file is already in use or was left open
I have rebooted my computer, rebooted our server, un-installed & reinstalled Photoshop and also done a system restore, and I still have the problem. (The system restore actually caused huge problems I got the error message The licensing subsystem has failed catastrophically. You must reinstall or call customer support, except I wasnt able to reinstall or uninstall the product. The computer just would not run the installer. I had to undo the system restore.)
I can do Save For Web with no trouble and I can save files to the same location with every other Adobe product installed in the Web bundle, just not Photoshop.
We have 2 machines here with an identical set up (hardware and software) and the problem is only on one machine.
Even though Photoshop says it cant save the file, its actually saving the file in the following format:-
~psX.tmp where X is a random variable, either characters or numbers.
I have to manually open My Documents and rename the file to filename.psd so I can access it again.
Short of reformatting my computer (which Im not keen on doing because it will mean several wasted work hours and I will have to pay our IT people to come in and hook me back up to our network), how can this problem be fixed?
I have also Googled the problem and the only help I found was a suggestion to search for a psicon.dll file and rename it. This file does not appear anywhere on my system, so I'm at a loss.
I have contacted support about this issue, but thought it was also worth while to ask here at the same time.

I'm having similar problems with not being able to save files after editing them (and giving them a new file-name, obviously) in Photoshop Elements 4.0. I get an error message saying (for instance): "Could not save as (whatever I'm trying to name the file) because the file is already in use or was left open". Then I see a .tmp file (that I can't open)
I did a search and found that the file was being saved twice, once within Photoshop (where I'm working with it) and also in..
"C:\Documents and Settings\Owner\My Documents\My Pictures\Temporary"
I'm assuming this is the problem, but if you have any clue as to why is this happening and what I can do about it, I'd welcome any input. I've been using PSE-4.0 for years, and this problem just started cropping up. The only (cumbersome) way around this problem has been to just make my edits (in PSE-4.0) and do a "save" under the original file name, then go into explorer and rename the file. So, in short, I cannot do what I've been doing for years, editing a picture and saving it (renamed) in the sane folder (or a different one).
I can "see" the .tmp files in PSE-4.0, but they won't open.. but they will in JASC.. odd..
Thanks-
Bob

Photoshop CS3 - error console warning on opening

Hi, I am working on a Mac book pro. I have recently noticed a warning message coming up on console messages when I open Photoshop, or indeed any of my adobe programmes. Part of the message that shows is detailed below. Please can anybody advise what is causing this. Have the programmes been corrupted in some way? Is Class EpicController part of the software? the message then repeats with Class EpicJSWindowExternalHandler and Class EpicWizardController
12/03/2009 09:20:47 [0x0-0x1d01d].com.adobe.Photoshop[151] objc[151]: Class EpicController is implemented in both /Applications/Adobe Photoshop CS3/Adobe Photoshop CS3.app/Contents/Frameworks/adobe_personalization.framework/adobe_personalization and /Applications/Adobe Photoshop CS3/Adobe Photoshop CS3.app/Contents/Frameworks/adobe_registration.framework/adobe_registration. Using implementation from /Applications/Adobe Photoshop CS3/Adobe Photoshop CS3.app/Contents/Frameworks/adobe_registration.framework/adobe_registration.
Any help with this, gratefully received - Thanks

Someone else reported this recently.
It is apparently a false message (caused by an error in OSX) and can safely be ignored.

Photoshop CS3 crashes all the time - Please help!

Hello
I didn't find any answer in the forum.
I work with Photoshop CS3 Version 10.0.1. on Mac Powerbook 10.4.11.
Photoshop quits all the time, no work possible anymore. It quits when I want to open a file or when I want to safe an new file (message PS unexpectedly quite).
The trouble (maybe - actually I am not sure) may started after I updated all Adobe program. There were some messages popping up that not everything was updated properly.
Anyway I reinstalled Photoshop 3 times and CS3 completely 2 times and the last time I run the clean up program as well. No change.
Please help! Thank you very much.

Rosa,
>So, you are also suggesting that I don't upgrade but install new.
NEVER, ever use the "upgrade" option.
Rather, do an "Archive and Install".
>What do I have to take care of beside of making a backup from everything?
Routine maintenance is imperative.
I still advocate Repairing Permissions (with Apple's Disk Utility) before AND after any system update or upgrade, as well as before AND after installing any software that requires an installer that asks for your password.
I have seen software installations go sour because the installer did not find everything as and where it should be.
I have also seen software installations go bad because the installer did not clean up after itself properly and did not leave everything as and where it should be.
This is just my own personal opinion and practice based on my own observations. Others may disagree and that's OK. I can only base my routines and my advice to others on my own experience and conclusion. I don't pretend to know why others believe otherwise.
Repairing Permissions after the fact (i. e. not immediately before and after an install) seldom helps.; Try it anyway, though.
====
Additionally, if your machine does not run 24/7 so that it runs the daily, weekly and monthly Cron Scripts in the middle of the night as intended by Apple, run Cocktail (shareware) as well.
Cron Scripts are maintenance routines designed by Apple to run on a daily, weekly and monthly basis in the middle of the night.
If you don't run them, you WILL run into trouble, sooner rather than later.
Here's an excerpt from the Apple tech doc
http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=107388
Mac OS X performs background maintenance tasks at certain times if the computer is not in sleep mode. If your computer is shut down or in sleep at the designated times, the maintenance does not occur. In that case, you may want or need to run these manually.
Mac OS X periodically runs background tasks that, in part, remove system files that are no longer needed. This includes purging older information from log files or deleting certain temporary items. These tasks do not run if the computer is shut down or in sleep mode. If the tasks do not run, it is possible that certain log files (such as system.log) may become very large.
Also, from:
http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=106978
The disk activity generated by find is a normal part of file system maintenance, used for tasks such as removing invisible temporary files that are used by the system. It is scheduled to occur early in the morning at 03:15 everyday, 04:30 on Saturdays, and 05:30 on the first day of each month.
NOTE:
There have been comments to the effect that Apple "fixed" this in 10.4.2 and later versions of the OS, but I have not been able to verify this to my satisfaction. The reference in the 10.4.2 release notes are far from explicit on this subject.

If you have DiskWarrior, run it regularly too.

Can't install Photoshop CS3 on Windows XP SP3

Hello, I recently have reformated my machine and installed XP SP3
sadly now, I can't install Photoshop CS3, when I double-click on Setup.exe, it show me a small bar/dialog which tells me it's extracting files, but after that, NOTHING HAPPENS
I left it for an hour, and again, nothing happens. I checked my Task Manager and I found that Setup.exe and Msiexec.exe are running but with completely 0% of system resource.
I tried everything possible, nothing worked for me, I really need Photoshop CS3 for my work.
thanks advance
JohnX

I hear ya. that's on an existing system with an upgrade. i've solved (well, resolved) a remote desktop problem with a rollback to sp2.
but on the clean xp pro sp3 system (1st app install after anti-virus and firewall), the cs3 install took about 10 minutes. very fast very smooth.

PLEASE HELP! Photoshop CS3 Error code

My photoshop out of the blue just stopped working. It goes go to the loading part, then it finishes loading. Stays there for like 5 seconds then it crashes.
Adobe Fireworks works perfect, however photoshop doesn't anymore.
Please help, this is urgent as I use photoshop daily.
I deleted the preferences. Held shift, del and ctrl and deleted the settings. but still nothing. I renamed the "twain32" and still nothing.
This is the error information
Problem signature:

Additional Information 4:    875fa2ef9d2bdca96466e8af55d1ae6e
PLEASE HELP!

A quick google returned:
The problem is that there's no such module as "StackHash_1703", so this appears to be some special case in Windows. I tried turning off antivirus and enabling compatibility mode, but the application still would not work.
The problem was that I had DEP (Data Execution Protection) enabled. For whatever reason, the error message gave me the AppCrash error above instead of the standard message about "DEP has closed the program."
To solve the problem, I added the application to the DEP exclusion list and everything worked again.

Installation Problems for Photoshop cs3 on imac os x "PLEASE HELP!!!!!!!!"

I have recentley purchased a new imac. I have been trying to load my Photoshop v10 CS3 on to it, since i got it, however, once the I enter the CD, the Software shows up with all the relevant information to install! BUT the "SETUP" icon shows as a blank sheet of paper & when i double click it, it opens a new "MSDOS" window containing a load of text!
Im really confused about this, and cannot understand why i cannot install it onto my imac...
Would be greatful if someone has a solution, or can explain a reason WHY this is happening!
Thanks.

Well, who told you it was for a Mac? If you bought it at a retail store, you should be able to take it back there and exchange it for a Mac copy. If you bought it used, you should demand a refund from whoever you bought it from.
Of course, that is all assuming it's actually a Windows copy, and there's not something else going on... What does it say on the CD? My Photoshop Elements CD is very clearly labeled "Macintosh."

Lightroom 2 Photoshop CS3 error

I was peviously using this combo and it worked. I have just bought LR2 and uninstalled LR 2 beta and LR1.
Now when I try to edit an image from Lightroom the usual dialogue box opens, asking if I want to save a copy with adjustments etc, then an error box:
Lightroom
bad argument #1 to 'find' (string expected, got nil)
However, if I select edit in photoshop.exe (ctrl + alt + e)
it seems to work sometimes. Whats up here?

Cannot Run OR update Photoshop CS3 on MacBook 10.6.2

My previous computer was running Tiger. Its motherboard died and I had to get a new computer. I'm now on a MacBook Pro 5,3, Intel Core 2 Duo, Processor Speed: 2.66 GHz, Memory: 4 GB.
When I first noticed an issue running Photoshop CS3 on this new computer, I reinstalled the program from the CD. I still had issues -- it won't stay 'open', or I can't open files, work with them and save them.
The Version Cue 3.1 updater ran this morning and wouldn't intall the update. Error message:: "The update cannot be applied to the product. Please re-install the product and try again. I'm not sure what else to do since re-installing Photoshop CS3 from the CD didn't help, and I don't have access to the computer I had it running on previously.
Anyone have any suggestions? Fixes?
Thank you!
Mary

It almost sounds like a Rosetta problem, but Snow Leopard starts Rosetta automatically for apps that need it, and if it isn't installed, it prompts you to download it the first time it needs it.
I'd say beyond uninstalling, get rid of all the preference and application support files from both your user library and the Mac HD library, THEN reinstall it.
A lot of times bad preferences remain behind and affect the reinstalled software just the way they did when it first went bad.

Photoshop CS3 and Final Cut Express

I am having some issues trying to bring a .psd file into FCE as a sequence. Every book/site/thread that I read says that as a program default FCE will import .psd files as layered sequences; however, when I save the file and try to import it it comes in as a clip with no layer functionality. I have tried .psds with "Maximize Compatability" on and off, layered tiffs, .psd 2.0 and nothing has given me the layers I am looking for. Any thoughts?
Using:
MacBook with Final Cut Express 3.5.1
Dell Precision with Photoshop CS3 Extended

Item number one looks very helpful... annoying but helpful.
I'll have to see what I can do to work around this. And Macs usually play so nicely with others...
Thanks, I'll let you know.

Photoshop CS3 "There was an error initializing the adobe help application..."

So, I just installed CS3 and I went to the photoshop help (F1) and an error pops up that says "There was an error initializing the adobe help application. You may need to reinstall the application and the help component.". I have uninstalled and reinstalled photoshop multiple times, I have also used "WinCS3Clean" to clean it out and the same thing happens. Would anyone have an idea how to fix this?

What are your system language settings, in which language do you install and in which language do you run Photoshop? If there's a mismatch, Help will not launch even if it sits somewhere on the disc. In any case, you can find all help files online at http://livedocs.adobe.com, often with updated info and user comments.

Error message when installing Photoshop CS3?

I downloaded Photoshop CS3 from the Adobe website. I am installing it on my iMac OS 10.8.5. The installation starts then a message comes on "Setup has encountered and error and cannot continue"
Any help will be greatly appreciated. Thank you!

Hello Jeff,
What I had was the Original CS package, but when I upgraded the OS, none of the apps work anymore. So, I uninstalled it. I have Photoshop CS3 on my office computer, which it still allows me more more installation.
So I downloaded it, but when I click on Setup App to install, it starts and then the message appears.
Thank you!

Photoshop CS3 Program Error

Since upgrading to Leopard I run Photoshop CS3 and I get a programming error message. I say OK and continue working. It also happens when I use the text tool.
Anyone else? Solutions?

Hello,
First try emptying your cache in your home directory folder (Home>Library>Caches). Trash everything located in the folder except the folder itself. Quit Photoshop if open and try again.
If that does not work, try deleting the preference file(s) for Photoshop (make sure Photoshop is closed).
If the above did not work at all, then I recommend uninstalling and reinstalling Photoshop CS3.
I hope this helps!
Jason
