Photoshop CS5 has stopped working and shuts down

I purchased Photoshop CS5 in March 2011 and after trying to install software I was unable to do anything in Photoshop without getting the following error message: "Adobe Photoshop CS5 has stopped working". A problem caused the program to stop working correctly. Windows will close the program and notify you if a solution is available. I was unable to open any psd file or new file withouth that error message. After you close that error message window, Photoshop immediately closes down. I had someone from Adobe remotely fix this problem. Now it is appearing again and I am unable to use the program. I need help with this. Please.

There's a similar discussion on this thread that could help you: http://forums.adobe.com/thread/633937

I have Photoshop CS5.5 Design Premium and need to open Nikon NEF files

I have Photoshop CS5.5 Design Premium and need to open Nikon NEF files.
I just downloaded the plug in for CS5.5 and it does not work. I put the Camera Raw.8bi file in the correct location as specifiec in the "read me" file.
Can someone guide me on how to do this, adn make it work?
Thank you.
Jay

so far no luck.
I ran DNG program for Windows (I have Win 8) and ran the menu to convert
the files on the same memory card from the camera.   Of 135 files, the
status column for the first 68 files said "converted," but the for all the
rest, it says "There was an error writing the file."
Of the files that "converted," they do not open, and I get the same error
message as before: "Could not complete your request because it is not the
right kind of document."
So, what a mess.
I get conflicting indications of the version of Photoshop I have. When i
click "About Photoshop in the Help menu, it says CS5 Extended.    The Error
message for the dng files says CS5.1 Extended. Does it make a difference?
I've been at this three hours now. It's a pain.   For many years I had no
problem with NEF files, as I had installed the plug-in as required. This
time it is not working. So I am not new to this.

Hi Kenton,
Adding to what James mentioned, this stands true for both Lightroom and Photoshop. In other words, you don't need to necessarily install the previous versions but while installing the latest versions, in this case Lightroom 5 & PS CS6, you will need the serial keys for previous versions as well along with the current ones.

Installed Photoshop CS5 on Windows 8 and it will not open. Help

Installed photoshop CS5 on my new Windows 8 computer. Says its not compatible and will not open. Help

Hi,
When CS 5 was released Windows 8 was not in the market, it just released recently, hence it was not tested on this enviornment. That would be the reason it says it is incompatible.
Check the Compatibility Matrix for latest release of these applications : http://www.adobe.com/support/OScompatibility.html

Why doesn't Photoshop CS5 automatically scale strokes and effects?

I am looking everywhere for why Photoshop CS5 doesn't automatically scale strokes and effects. I could've sworn there was a preference in CS4 but there's nothing resembling this in CS5. Driving me crazy!
Whenever I do a Free Transform, the effects are completely out of whack and force me to waste time resetting them individually, layer by layer. I used to be able to grab any object or group of objects, do a transformation and Photoshop automatically recalculated. If anyone has a tip on how to avoid the annoyance of having to go layer by layer and forcibly adjusting that would be great.

Layer style effect setting are in absolute pixel size values so if you change the scale of a layer the style size remains the same. You can edit the layers style effects after tou do a transform on the layer and change the absolute setting. If the layer has been rastersized or flattened you can not. I have request that Adobe add support for relative settings like inches, cm, mm etc which is relative to the documents dpi resolution. This would be very helpful for recording actions.
However photoshop can scale existing layer style for you when you use Image Size there is a check box. If you need to scale a single layer and have its style scaled you need to do it in a round about way. Convert the layer to a smart object. Then instead of using transform double click on the layser smart object icon in the layers palette. Photoshop will open that layer embedded smart object in Photoshop for you to work on it.. Use Image Size to resize the layer up or down in size and check resample constrain and the scale style check box. Then use menu File>Save. Photoshop will then update the embedded smart object in the smart object layer and you can close the document Photoshop opened for you to work on the smart object.

Photoshop CS5 help

I can no longer open up my Photoshop CS5 (not a trial)....Everytime I click to run it it gets to the startup screen and then just freezes. I have tried shutting my computer down, restarting but nothing is helping. Lightroom and Bridge open just fine? HELP

That is your problem. Disable it and see if it works well. If so get updates to it and see it that fixes it.
Hope this solves the problem.

Photoshop CS5 "Help" function not working - Adobe Air error message?

Installed Photoshop CS5, and thought everything was working okay, but when I click on Photoshop Help, I get the error message "Adobe Air - This installation of this application is damaged. Try re-installing......" I have re-installed first Adobe Air, same problem and then uninstalled and re-installed Photoshop CS5, but the problem remains. When I first tried to use the Help function it tried to update something and for some reason this failed. I'm wondering if others have seen the same problem and know of a solution? Thanks, David.

Hello: there may be a configuration issue going on here. I have escalated this issue to our Help app engineering team. In the meanwhile, please try the following:
Uninstall the Adobe Help application: go to your Application folder > Adobe > Adobe Help (drag it to the Trash)
Delete the following directory:
USER NAME (home) > Library > Preferences > chc.4875E02D9FB21EE389F73B8D1702B320485DF8CE.
Empty the Trash
Manually update the application via this link: http://www.adobe.com/support/chc/
Select "Photoshop" in Step 1 and then click the Install badge in Step 2. Make sure to select "Open" (and not Save) in the installation dialog box to fully update the app.
Note: The previous instructions did not include deleting the old application or its preference file. This will help ensure that it is thoroughly updated.

Photoshop CS5 - Image resize problem with move tool

Hi People
Here's my problem
When I try to resize an layer using the move tool (as opposed to the Free Transform tool), while I'm in the process of moving the scaling handles, the bounding box reflects my movement but the layer preview stays at it's original size. When I stop moving the handles there is a few seconds delay and then the new scale size shows up. If I try to move the handles again, without commiting to the transform, the layer preview reverts back to it's original size until I've finished moving the handles.
I didn't have this problem with CS4 and I've only recently upgraded. I work around this problem by using the proper Free Transform tool (ctrl+t) but it would be nice to know why the hell this happens. It seems to me to be more of a graphical glitch than a software preference but I thought I'd check just-in-case.

Photoshop CS5 V12.1 x64

I also read you you tried updating your video dirvers and your syste crashed and you had to roll back. Make sure you have downloaded the latest correct drivers. If that does not work try turning off Open GL in photoshops preferences.
On my old XP 32 bit system CS5 movet tool with transform dialog does not fail like on your system. I can move the handles time and time again without commiting the transform. The only way to have Photoshop revert the transform back to the original state is to press the ESC key to cancel the uncommitted transform.

Photoshop CS5 interface locking up and windows disappearing in OSX Mountain Lion?

Hi,
This has suddenly started happening to me using Photoshop CS5 on my mac running the latest version of Mountain Lion. When I open a PSD file at first it doesn't appear to be there. If I check under the "view" menu the interface says that the document is open. If I use tab to switch between views, the document appears and the palettes on the right disappear. Tab again and the interface reappears around the document, palettes are still gone but they are replaced by transparent grey blocks where the palettes should be. I can't bring up any new palettes and I can't move the document window. If I have multiple documents open, one remains in front even though the titles in the title bar change.
I've reinstalled Java. Unistalled and reinstalled Photoshop CS5 but nothing is working. I've opened Photoshop CS3 and it works fine.
Has anybody else expereinced this or have any idea what's going on?
Thanks for any advice

Hi Chris,
No I don't have any utilities or haxies. The only thing that I know I did before the issue was remove a trial version of Flash CS6 and I installed Flash CS3 (I was working with an old FLA and the new text tools in Flash CS5 were making editing difficult). That's why I thought reinstalling Photoshop might help. I thought perhaps I'd overwritten or removed an important file. There have also been a few minor updates to the OS recently.
I ran a diagnostic with tech tool pro and as far as it can tell the video card is good.
Regarding Java: when OSX Lion came out users were required to download and install run time for Java in order for Adobe Products to function. Some of the issues seemed similar to what I'm experiencing. This is from adobe help: http://helpx.adobe.com/x-productkb/global/install-java-jre-mac-os.html

Can I install Photoshop CS5 along side Elements 11?

I have Photoshop Elements 11 and just bought Photoshop CS5. Should I uninstall the old one before I install the new one?

Photoshop Elements, despite its name, is not Photoshop.
Photoshop Elements 11 and Photoshop CS5 have nothing to do with each other, so you cannot call Photoshop Elements 11 "the old one" and CS5 "the new one".
They will not interfere with each other.
Unlike Elements, Photoshop is a professional level application that makes no apologies for its long and steep learning curve. If you are used to Elements, you probably want to keep it until you decide whether the full version of Photoshop is suitable for you.
One caveat: Adobe hasn't been selling CS5 for well over a year. Make sure you bought a legitimate copy you can run legally, as it absolutely requires not just registration but activation.
If you bought CS5 from a private party who has used its serial number to upgrade (to CS6 or to CC) then you would have an illegal copy of Photoshop that you cannot run.

Importing RAW from Canon 6D using LR3/Photoshop CS5 - help!

I'm using light room 3 and Photoshop/bridge CS5.
I just got a new camera – a Canon 6D and none of the programs will read the files. It is indicated I need a new plug-in to support the camera – camera raw plug-in/supported cameras indicates a 60 is supported.
I found a support patch and downloaded: DNGConverter_7_3.exe.part and the application file:DNGConverter_7_3 (the application file size is indicated as 0 kB)
Neither Program Will Run under Windows 7 and I still can't open any of the raw files from my Canon 6D camera.
Any Suggestions?

The EOS 6D was first supported in Camera Raw 7.3 and Lightroom 4.3
http://helpx.adobe.com/creative-suite/kb/camera-raw-plug-supported-cameras.html
Camera Raw 7.3 is only compatible with Photoshop CS6 and higher. It is not compatible with CS5

[BUG] Photoshop CS5 Extended 64-bit and the UAC

HI
Installing all the updates of the suite of Photoshop CS5 Extended 12.LS4 32-64 bit on Windows 7 Ultimate 64-bit, you must completely disable the UAC to start Photoshop CS5 Extended 64-bit. Why?
THANKS
BYE

That's a fair question. Mine's not broken and I have not had to reinstall it, so I can't answer from personal experience.
General advice: Make a good backup and set a restore point before trying any restorative activity.
Also search this forum for something like "registry permissions"... I seem to recall at least one thread in early to mid 2010 where someone identified parts of the registry on which to alter permissions to solve some problem or another.
