Photoshop CS5 doesn't open on my Macbook Air running OS 10.9.2

When I try to open Photoshop, nothing happens. No error message. It simply doesn't open. I've tried uninstalling, running the cleaner, and reinstalling, but to no avail. My version of CS5 is listed as 12.1.
Does anybody have any suggestions?

then manually reset your preferences, Restore preferences | Dreamweaver CS4, CS5, CS5.5, CS6
if that fails to solve the problem, uninstall, clean and reinstall per Use the CC Cleaner Tool to solve installation problems | CC, CS3-CS6

How to fit photoshop CS5 'Save for web' window to Macbook Air 11"

I have tried Photoshop CS5 on Macbook Air 11", however I realized that the 'Save for web' window which I always use is too big to fit into the 11" screen (The buttons kind of cut off at the bottom of the window). Anyone got any suggestion or solution for this? Thanks in advanced.

Thanks Gene. Yes, I wanted to be able to easily access my Dropbox folder from the Save for Web window. I originally had wanted to be able to add the Dropbox icon on the left where the other icons are for Network, Libraries, Recent Items, and Computer are located. However, it may not be possible to do so. However, the link that you gave me allowed me to create a new Library that linked to my Dropbox folder so it's doing the exact same thing that I had wanted I'm just having to click on Libraries first. I can live with that Thanks for the help!
Nancy, it's okay. I've done it a million times too and I probably could have asked the question in a better way. Thanks for the response!

Why external editor Cs5 doesn't open in Adobe Camera Raw window?

I am workning in Apertute 3 and I want to edit some photos in Photoshop Cs5. I am working with RAW files, but when I want to open the file in external editor, it doesn't open in Adobe Camera Raw so I am loosing the Adobe Camera Raw adjustment abilities. Is there perhaps a way how to set up Aperture to comunicate with Photoshop Cs5 so it opens photos in Camera Raw window? I think in previous version of Aperture this was possible. Thanks.

Editing in the external editor (from within aperture) is only possible for Versions, not for masters, afaik. Since it would be pointless to export a Version again in some raw format, Aperture offers high quality lossless formats to export versions - tiff and Photoshop psd.
If you want to do the raw processing externally, you will have to edit the master image file:
export the master, or reveal a managed master and copy it to Photoshop, then reimport it.
To edit the master in Photoshop and to reimport it, you could use an automator service: I put a sample workflow and some instructions on how to use and modify it on this page: feel free to modify it according to your needs.

Photoshop CS5 won't open .kmz files

Photoshop CS5 won't open .kmz files. I did a fresh install of Google Earth, opened it, saved a place, and saved a .kmz file. It reopens fine in Google Earth.
When I try to open it in Photoshop, this message pops up:
File Format Error
This file is from a previous version of Google Earth or it is not a Google Earth file
I get this message regardless of the following:
- ps is closed and i right click the kmz and choose ps (rather than google earth) to open it
- ps is open and i double click the kmz
- ps is open and i choose file/open and select the kmz
- ps is open and i have created and saved a new psd file, then choose 3D/New Layer from 3D File/ and select the kmz
I have tried the usual remedies, change rwx permissions, repair permissions, delete prefs. No luck.
Any thoughts? Software versions are below.
Thanks.
- Photoshop CS5 Extended 12.0.4 x64 (doesn't work in x32 either)
- Google Earth 6.0.3.2197
- OS 10.6.8

I was trying to see (since Photoshop Extended touts the ability to open kmz files) if I could open a 3D Google Earth file and edit it in Photoshop. A file like this for instance http://ecotope.org/anthromes/maps/. After more research I've learned that kmz is nothing more that a container format - you can change the extension to zip and see what's in it.
I ran across this tidbit in the Photoshop CS3 Extended forum:
Photoshop CS3 Extended supports the ability to import .kmz files created from Google Earth 4 or exported from Sketch-up in the Google Earth 4 format. Photoshop CS3 Extended cannot open Google Earth files. If you have a Google Earth file, you can convert it to a Google Earth 4 format with the free version of Sketch-up.
So, theoretically if I could get a kmz into Google Earth 4 format, I could open it in Photoshop. But I haven't had any success importing a kmz or kml into SketchUp. Even just making a native sketchup file and trying to import that in psd gives a ram error.
Probably I'm wishing for the moon.

Photoshop CS5 will not open

My photoshop CS5 will not open either from the desktop or from the program list. I can open Bridge but when I then try to view a photo in photoshop I get a message that says Bridge has stopped working and will have to close down.

Please read below item and provide relevant information.

Are Photoshop and OS fully updated and have you performed the usual trouble-shooting routines (trashing prefs by keeping command-alt-shift/ctrl-alt-shift pressed while starting Photoshop after making sure all customized presets like Actions, Patterns, Brushes etc. have been saved and making a note of the Preferences you’ve changed, 3rd party plug-ins deactivation, system maintenance, cleaning caches, font validation, etc.)?

Photoshop CS3 doesn't open or error occurs, when you Edit in Photoshop CS3 from Photoshop Lightroom 2

Problem: When you try to Edit in Photoshop CS3 from Adobe Photoshop Lightroom 2, Photoshop CS3 doesn't open, or after Photoshop opens, you see the error message, "Photoshop could not be launched".
This issue is currently being investigated. At present, there are two possible areas that might be causing this issue. Corrupted metadata or a corrupted catalog, or Photoshop CS3 has not been updated to 10.0.1, or the update did not apply correctly to the application.
We are working for a permanent solution for this issue.
Workaround: Please refer to this Adobe

Photoshop Cs5.1 wont open

Photoshop Cs5.1 wont open, crashes on start up, already re installed it once. its running on windows 7 and the error message that I get says "A problem caused the program to stop working correctly..."

Noel, thanks for your answer. I checked the system info for any usage of igXXXXX.dll files (I suppose Intel GMA drivers), but found nothing. It is however showing me a list of used ati*...dll drivers from which i conclude PS is using my dedicated GPU.
Unfortunately I did not find any option to turn off the integrated graphics in my BIOS. I tried to increase the shared memory value (it was set to 32MB) to 1024MB and let PCIE be the primary GPU device. Still, those effects don't seem to have any effect on Photoshop.

Photoshop CS5 has been opening at startup

Photoshop CS5 has been opening at startup. There are no items in my accounts/login items list. Any idea why photoshop is opening?

Does Photoshop open up automatically under ALL user accounts or just yours? (Create a an account and test...)
If it DOES open no matter what account, it may be a setting PS has that's having it do that. (sounds like a call to Adobe?)
Otherwise...
Here's a link for disabling other areas for applications, etc., can "autostart".

Photoshop CS5 unable to open for edits from Lightroom 3

Have been experiencing numerous issue with the new LR and Photoshop not playing nice with each other on my Mac Pro w/10.6. Photoshop CS5 is will open in 1 attempt out of 8, and won't open from LR for editing purposes (it did once). Have been using in 32 bit mode to accommodate NIK and Topaz filters. I have reinstalled three times so far. Anyone got any ideas?

Try deleting the prefs folder for Photoshop. Mine was doing something like this where it would not open the image inside
of CS5 when you right click on the image and try an "open with". But it would work from the menu, most of the time. The cost is having to recreate custom settings inside Photoshop but since my CS5 was a new install as was LR3, it did not matter to me. It did require a reboot for the new preference file to fully take effect.
From Adobe's own workaround
5. Re-create the Photoshop preferences files.
Re-create the Photoshop preferences file to eliminate problems that a damaged preferences file might cause.
Note: Re-creating the Photoshop preferences file restores settings to their defaults.
To re-create the Photoshop preferences file:
Quit Photoshop.
Rename the Users\[username]\Library\Preferences\Adobe Photoshop CS3 Settings\Adobe Photoshop CS3 Prefs.psp folder to Adobe Photoshop CS3 Prefs.old.
Start Photoshop. Photoshop creates a new Adobe Photoshop CS3 Prefs.psp file.
If the problem continues, then the Photoshop preferences file isn't the cause. To restore custom settings, quit Photoshop, then delete the new Adobe Photoshop CS3 Prefs.psp file and restore the original name of the previous Adobe Photoshop CS3 Prefs.psp

Photoshop CS5 fails to open pdfs

Photoshop CS5 fails to open some pdfs created in Indesign. The message 'Could not complete your request because of a program error' comes up. Is this posibly a system issue not seeing the file information or a fault in photoshop.

We can't know. We know nothing about your PDFs nor your system. This could be anything from genuine structural damage in the files to embedding issues with fonts, PDF security stuff or jumbled up color profiles or whatever. You have to provide a lot more details.
