Photoshop Cs5 not opening files

I'm not actually completely sure if this is an issue with Mavericks because the problem started about 2 1/2 weeks ago, but my Photoshop Cs5 won't open files anymore. As soon as the app launches, I can click on "open..." but as I'm selecting the file, the window will close and after that, every choice on all the drop-down menus is grayed out and can no longer be selected. I've already installed Java for OS X 2012-006 with no luck, I've tried uninstalling and reinstalling PS Cs5 with no luck. Help pleaseeeeeee D:

Uninstalling and reinstalling WON'T do that unless you used the CS Cleaner from Adobe to uninstall.
Also, check your Performance preferences:
Toggle OpenGL drawing, quitting Photoshop between changes.

  • My photoshop will not open files or create new files, please help?

    Photoshop CS6 on Windows 7 will not work,
    When machine is first started the program works, for about 10 mins, then
    I can not open files, create new ones. When it does work it can not perform functions like transform etc.
    I tried disabling third party plug ins
    I tried creating a new account on my machine
    Nothing seems to work.
    Can any one shed some light on the problem?
    Cheers!

    There is a script running which Noscript lets me forbid, called akamaihd.net. It runs a script which is the same as in html when you highlight a word then attach a url to it.
    I don't know why I am seeing it but not others. FF and Chrome seem susceptible to it. It's not malware as usually thought of because no virus/malware program finds it here.
    Unfortunately, I have to forbid this script for every site I visit.
    In the other thread where your browser displayed an 'i.trkjmp.com' link which isn't really in the web page, I gave you a Google link for info about the problem. You said that it must be something else. Well, for months now, Chrome and Firefox users have been troubled by extensions which cause the 'i.trkjmp.com' problem. You might want to revisit the link I gave you.

  • Can Photoshop CS5.1 open files created/saved in CS6?

    I work in a collaborative environment. I've upgraded to CS6, but those i work with are working in photoshop cs5.1. Will they have problems opening files i create or save in CS6?

    I don't know that I can offer a better long answer, nor do I know of any published list of things you can save in a Photoshop CS6 document that won't open properly in an earlier version.  I have tried a few things myself, like creating shapes, text, etc. and found that Photoshop CS5 sees them all just fine.  But it's not hard to think of things that wouldn't work, such as putting a brand new filter as a smart filter in a document.
    Just using the cool new features would not necessarily net you incompatibility.  For example, doing a Content Aware Move or one of the new blurs just manipulate pixels, and at the end of the day the layer will just have pixels on it, which every version of Photoshop has known about all along. 
    Things like recording brush strokes in an action and trying to run the action on an earlier Photoshop would yield incompatibility, because older versions wouldn't know how to play such brush strokes back.
    There is a "Maximize PSD and PSB File Compatibility" setting in the File Handling preferences, and the implication is that others will always be at the very least able to open a flattened version of the document, but I'm not sure that covers every case of individual incompatibility between recent versions of Photoshop.  I've never had occasion to test it out thoroughly. 
    Maybe one of the Adobe people can speak to this in more detail.
    Do you still have a copy of Photoshop CS5 installed?  If so, and you're not sure about whether your PSD file is going to be compatible, you could of course try it yourself to be sure.

  • Photoshop does not open files, nor able to create new documents

    Has happened at least once before;
    * open file in Photoshop seems normal up until actually rendering the window where the document should be visible; no UI shows for the opened window
    * same goes with File -> New; dialog visible, I can select file size and other settings, but when confirming - I do not get a document window opened
    No obvious changes to my system lately except a new version of Flash Player installed at last reboot.
    Illustrator and InDesign not affected (open and new works as expected)
    Best regards,
    Henrik

  • Photoshop CS6 not opening files from Lightroom 5.6

    On my mac I updated to Lightroom 5.6. Now it will not open the file in Photoshop CS6 using the "Edit it Photoshop" option. Anyone know how to work around this? I do not want to "render in lightroom" each time. Thanks!

    There used to be a weird bug where this didn't work when there was an accented character (like ø, ä, etc.) somewhere in the path to the file, in the filename itself or in the metadata, the file simply wouldn't open in CS3. Don't know if that ever was fixed, but might be something to check.

  • Photoshop CS2 not opening files

    I have been having this problem for several weeks now. When ever I try to open any file in Photoshop CS2, it just spools the little rainbow circle and never opens the file. THankfully, I still have Photoshop CS on my computer so I can run things through that. There seems to be no rhyme or reason as to why it doesn't open my files. It can be psd files, jpg files, low res, high res, directly from my computer or from my FireWire hard drive connected to my computer.
    Any ideas on what's going on?
    thanks in advance!

    Familiarize yourself with these tables

    Camera Raw-compatible Adobe applications
    The E-M1 was first supported by Camera Raw 8.3 which is only compatible with CS6 and CC. It is not compatible with CS5 or lower and never will be.
    Some options:
    Upgrade to CS6
    Join the Cloud
    Download the free Adobe DNG converter, convert all the Raw E-M1 files to DNGs then edit the DNGs in CS5

  • Photoshop not opening files

    Photoshop CS5 will not open files. Occasionally if i try to open a .psd file that has already been created by double clicking on it in its folder, it will open but I will hardly be able to edit it. For example, the brush tool does not work, crop tool, resizing image etc. I had this problem 2 weeks ago. I uninstalled adobe creative suite, ran the adobe cloud cleanup tool and then reinstalled the programs and everything worked again. However after a week everything suddenly went back to the way it was again. Very frustrating! I might as well mention that at the same time as Photoshop "crashed" I also became unable to drag objects in Illustrator and InDesign.
    I am not very good on the technical side so I just copied all my performance info below. I am working from a laptop with a mouse plugged into the usb port. Is there any other details you need to know?
    Thank you in advance for your help!

  • Photoshop will not open some of my files

    I recently had a hard drive crash. I sent it to a recovery company and they returned my files on a new hard drive. Many of the images were recovered but some show up as CR2 files or psd files that photoshop will not open. The message says that this is a file format that PS does not recognize. These files seem to be no different from my other CR2 files and psd. files but the thumbnails don't show up in Bridge and PS will not open them. Can anyone tell me how to get these files to open?

    I thought this following suggestion to use GIMP to open stubborn PSD files was brilliant:

    you may also want to try using the DNG converter with your CR2 files:

    it's worth a try, but it's a long shot.
