Photoshop CS4 program error: deleted prefs, keeps coming back instantly

I am running Photoshop CS4 extended on my Mac OS X 10.5.6 OS. Out of no where, I create a new file, try to fill a layer with a solid color, I get the generic program error message. I click OK to get rid of it, but it is erratic. I have to force quit the program.
I deleted the pref file manually as well as Apple + Option + Shift keys while loading the program and had Photoshop delete it for me.
What other files do i need to delete/reset for this to work properly again?
My computer:
Mac Pro Dual Quad (octo)
12 GB of ram
I pulled up activity monitor and it isn't using much memory.

sounds like a bad directory I would run Diskwarrior or disk utility of the OS install DVD

  • Can not delete my emails. The same emails keep coming back instantly

    I can not delete email messages. The same messages keep coming back instantly.

    What seems to have worked for other users in the past.
    Delete, then reinstall the email account
    Then sync the iPad.
    No one knows why, but it often fixes the problem.

    Reset the device:
    Press and hold the Sleep/Wake button and the Home button together for at least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears.
    If that doesn't help, tap Settings > General > Reset > Reset All Settings
    No data is lost due to a reset.

  • Deleted mail keeps coming back in to mail

    Using mail on Imac, Laptop, ipad and iphone.
    When I move a message to a folder on the imac it keeps coming back in to the mail account.  It appears to work OK on the laptop when I move a message.  All the settings appear to be the same.  Any idea what is going on?
    Thanks

    An update to my previous questions.  This problem I think started after Maverick was installed.  Also if I just try to delete a message it will pop back in.  Appreciate someone telling me what is going on?
    Thanks

  • Macbook Pro - mail account. Deleted messages keep coming back!

    Hey,
    I've deleted several messages (they were also in my drafts) and they keep popping back up in my sent mail and inbox, sometimes multiple copies of the same message. I want those messages gone. They keep coming back!!!! How do I fix this?

    In Mail you have to move the message to gmail trash. Just deleting the message assigns it the delete label but doesn't delete it. You can truly delete the messages in web gmail, however.
    I hope this helps.

  • Why do my deleted emails keep coming back into my inbox?

    I upgraded to Maverick last week and now I can't delete any of my emails.  They keep coming back into my inbox after I try to delete them.  Help!

    Make sure you have option set to delete from server when read. Otherwise they will keep coming back.

  • Deleted app keeps coming back

    I've deleted this app twice but keep getting updates for it. Out of habit, I click "update all" and get the stupid thing again because there's no way to stop the download at that point. I've tried getting the icons to jiggle, but the one in process has no delete option until it's loaded again.
    Any way to keep it out of my updates to begin with? How do I permanently delete an app? Thanks.

    I am having the same problem. I have deleted the app in iTunes and on the iPod but every time I download updates, it keeps coming back. How can I get this app (Utah State Parks Field Guide) to leave me alone.

  • Photoshop CS4 "Program Error" when using Text tool

    Hello. I was having problems with Photoshop displaying a "Program Error" every so often, so I deleted the preference file and all seemed good. But after deleting the preference file for my Photoshop CS4 and re-launching Photoshop, the text tool causes Photoshop to display a Program Error when using the tool. It never did this before. Should I reinstall Photoshop? I am using a Powermac G5 running 10.5.8. I have already tried repairing the disk permissions.
    Thanks

    Thats kinda what I thought too, but the problem started happening randomly. It started when we were trying to use photomerge with large photos. The program just started giving the program errors. I still think it may be a font problem, but without going through my 2000+ fonts and disabling them one by one, how can I resolve this issue?
    Thanks

  • Photoshop CS4 "program error"

    I am running MAC OSX 10.5.8 on a g5 and our office recently updated to CS4. For the first week, things went smoothly, now Photoshop is producing an error. "Could not complete your request because of a program error." In order to do anything in PS after I get that error, I have to Force Quit. So far it hasn't effected any other CS4 programs. I have uninstalled photoshop, then reinstalled. It worked for a few days, then started again with the error message. We have 4 machines running CS4 in our office and 2 of the 4 are having the same issue. HELP PLEASE!!! very frustrating.

  • Help! CS4 overridden master page text keeps coming back...

    I work in historic preservation at an architecture firm and I've created a template in indesign, using CS4, for reports that we have to write. There are a lot of master pages set up for different text layouts, plus there are about 10 different picture layout pages. On each page, where there will be text for the report I inserted filler text so that people use the right paragraph styles so that the table of contents will work correctly and to make sure everything is consistent. The document started out as single pages but then I switched it to facing because that's what was asked for. When I switched it, for some reason one of the pages in the middle of the document is set up as only a single page. I tried to move the pages around, but it won't fix the problem. So i tried to add a page after it, and that worked. However, it caused a new problem. I had already gone through and overriden the filler text that came through the master page and put the report in, but when i added the new page, it brought back all of the filler text as a new master underneath the report text. So I have to go through and override all of the filler text again and delete it. It did this to me one other time, and if people are using this template in the future, I don't want it to mess up for someone that isn't that comfortable with indesign in the first place. So I guess my question is if anyone knows why it keeps bringing back the overridden master text and also if there is an easier way to make that single page in the middle of a facing document into a facing page. Thanks for any input.

    It brings back the master items because you are shifting from left to right pages, or vice versa, and ID must re-assert the master items when you do that. This is a known behavior (and one reason for not using placeholders that get overridden). If this is a template, must those items actually be on the master page, or can they be in the correct positions on the document pages?
    Harbs is working on a plugin that will keep this from happening, but it isn't quite ready. He might be willing to let you test it though. He's at intools.com.

  • Deleted emails keep coming back since the last big update on my macbook pro

    Ever since the update that removed the ability to work with spaces on my mac, I have had issues with deleted emails coming back, even after deleting more than once.  Very frustrating.
    Side note:  I preferred using the spaces function when moving from email to internet to other programs.  Not a huge fan of the updated function.

    Problems such as yours are sometimes caused by files that should belong to you but are locked or have wrong permissions. This procedure will check for such files. It makes no changes and therefore is not, in itself, a solution.
    First, empty the Trash, if possible.
    Triple-click anywhere in the line below on this page to select it, then copy the selected text to the Clipboard by pressing the key combinationcommand-C:
    find ~ $TMPDIR.. \( -flags +sappnd,schg,uappnd,uchg -o ! -user $UID -o ! -perm -600 \) 2>&- | wc -l | pbcopy
    Launch the built-in Terminal application in any of the following ways:
    ☞ Enter the first few letters of its name into a Spotlight search. Select it in the results (it should be at the top.)
    ☞ In the Finder, select Go ▹ Utilities from the menu bar, or press the key combination shift-command-U. The application is in the folder that opens.
    ☞ Open LaunchPad. Click Utilities, then Terminal in the icon grid.
    Paste into the Terminal window by pressing command-V. The command may take a noticeable amount of time to run.
    Wait for a new line ending in a dollar sign ($) to appear.
    The output of the command will be a number. It's automatically copied to the Clipboard. Please paste it into a reply.
    The Terminal window doesn't show the output. Please don't copy anything from there.

  • When I am on facebook I continually get a syntax error message which keeps coming back. I have checked my settings and enabled java script but doesnt help.

    I can access my facebook account with no trouble, but once facebook is loaded I repeatedly get an error message; syntax error. The words 'Java Script application' are in the bar across the top of the message. It comes up many times and completely disrupts what I am doing. I am wondering if ot has something to do with the adverts in the side bar of each page that I open in facebook. If I open FB from Google Chrome I don't get that problem, or in Explorer, but I would rather use Firefox. Help would be apprecitaed, please. Thanks.

    hello, first of all please [https://www.mozilla.org/firefox/update/ update firefox to the latest version]. the errors you're getting are likely coming from the socialfixer addon that you've installed - there's also an updated version of the extension available which fixes these kind of issues: http://socialfixer.com/blog/category/releasenotes/

  • Moved or deleted emails keep coming back to Mail inbox

    Since Maverick installation, I have been trying to keep my folders from various email accounts organized like in the good old days of Lion but Mail keeps moving my emails back to the original inbox each time I try to either delete or move one of the emails (it usually happens after 3-5 minutes). So much time wasted every day... How to fix please? Thanks.

    Just wondering if you have the latest Mail update. This may fix the issue.
    Hope this helps

  • Deleted emails keep coming back

    This seems like a common problem, but I've yet to see a solution. I'm on an iPhone 4, and whenever I delete emails, they constantly return 2 to 3 times before finally staying deleted.
    My emails come through my personal site account on godaddy, (secureserver.net), and all my settings seem to be correct to delete emails from the server when deleted from my phone. I've reset settings, restarted phone, updated, etc etc etc. Nothing seems to stop this from happening. I know it's not THAT big of a deal, since I can delete them AGAIN, but it is really frustrating.

    Having the Same issue. @#$%ing annoying. My pop account worked fine for like 3 weeks, and then the mail program started doing this. POS.
