Photoshop CS4 stopped launching, no error message. Mac os 10.5.8 on PPC

Hi all,
I´m using Photoshop CS4 on this computer (Powerbook G4 PPC with OS 10.5.8, 10 GB HD free, 1.5 Gb Ram) without problems since 3 years ago.
2 days ago it stopped suddently working. It just doesn´t launch, without error message. On that days I was using an external USB hard disk that crashed...
Bridge runs ok but when I try to run Camera Raw, I get the message  "Camera Raw editing is not enabled. Camera Raw editing requires that a qualifying product has been launched at least once to enable this feature".
I already re-installed photoshop, uninstalled it and reinstalled, I tried also "App cleaner" and also I tried deleting all folders related to photoshop CS4 and reinstalling. I also repared disk permissions. I tried to use the Adobe CC Cleaner Tool but unfortunatly it doesn´t run on this machine.
Next step would be to format the machine, but I don´t want to do it unless it´s strictly necessary..
Any other ideas?
Thanks in advance!

Alas, Photoshop 7.x is not supported in Leopard (nor in Snow Leopard)—as far as I know.
What's worse, Photoshop 7.x is out of the upgrade path.

  • I work with a Mac & I had to restore my computer for my time machine back-up.  When I attempt to open/edit a photo with either camera raw or photoshop I get the following error message: Error 150:30 , it also sys that licensing for the product has stopped

    I work with a Mac & I had to restore my computer for my time machine back-up.  When I attempt to open/edit a photo with either camera raw or photoshop I get the following error message: Error 150:30 , it also sys that licensing for the product has stopped working?

    Unfortunately when Adobe products are restored from backup, especial CS4 and especially Mac, it breaks licensing.
    There is a python script included in the license recovery kit that should work if you are familiar with Terminal.
    If not, you must reinstall your CS4 suite.  You don't need to delete your preferences, so it should be the same as before.

  • I had to reinstall CS4 and now have error messages when opening bridge and photoshop

    The error message is "The specified module could not be found. C:\Program Files (x86)\Common Files\Adobe\Adobe Version Cue CS4\Client\4.0.1\Version Cue.DLL

    I tried what you suggested and it did not help.  whenever I try to open either photoshop or bridge, I get a message saying that there was a problem loading scripts the last time that Bridge was open and do I want to try loading them again?  If I click yes, I get that same error message that I reported in my original question and photoshop/bridge will immediately close.  If I click no, photoshop and bridge will open but it will not let me open a raw format document.  It seems like Adobe Camera Raw is not being recognized.   One of the updates I downloaded was an update to Adobe Camera Raw so the functionality is there, it just can't be accessed.  do you think I should try to uninstall and re-install Photoshop again?

  • I have purchased a new Mac power book 10.9.2.  I cannot open illustrator CS4 and get the error message 150:30.  Can you help?

    I have purchased a new Mac power book 10.9.2.  I cannot open adobe illustrator CS4 and get the error message 150:30.  Can you help?

    You are welcome, Sharon.
    You should be aware that the newest version, CC, is only available as a subscription.
    CS6 can be purchased at Adobe, or second hand, see below.
    Older versions such as CS5 can only be bought second hand, with a licence transfer through Adobe, requiring that the licence has not been used as a basis for an upgrade.

  • I downloaded a trial of photoshop.  It runs for a minute or so, then a message displays saying that photoshop has stopped.  No error codes, just the message. I have exhausted the "try this" stuff that I can find.  Any other ideas would be appreciated.

    I downloaded a trial of photoshop.  It runs for a minute or so, then a message displays saying that photoshop has stopped.  No error codes, just the message. I have exhausted the "try this" stuff that I can find.  Any other ideas would be appreciated.  I would also like to know what some alternative applications might be.  This trial does not give me confidence in Adobe's product.

    I saw a similar question deeper into the forum right after I posted.  I followed the fix steps and it took care of the problem.
    Thanks for getting back to me.  I am good to go.

  • Encore CS4 I received this error message: PrimoBurnerSDK -unkown error.

    Under the Windows 7 Ultra OS, when I loaded Premiere Pro CS4, I received the following error message and thereafter when I tried to write a DVD with Encore CS4 I received this error message: PrimoBurnerSDK -unkown error.
    I know the Burner is working properly because it is able to burn DVDs with Adobe Premiere Elements 9.
    The Premiere Pro CS4package worked alright under the Window Vista OS.
    What can I do to correct this problem?

    As a test, tell Encore to create an ISO on your hard drive, then use the free http://www.imgburn.com/index.php?act=download to write to disc
    If that works, the problem is some other software that is "hijacking" your burner so Encore can't properly "talk" to it to burn
