Photoshop CS6 cannot open or create new canvases?

My photoshop cs6 loads fine. However, when I try to open a file or create a new one, nothing happens. It doesn't even indicate that anything might be loading. I have tried to open several files and nothing works.

Problem came back unfortunately, so that was NOT the final answer. Nothing will open.
Following this post:
Photoshop CC won't open any files
we exhaustively tested every single potential solution in the thread. The only solution that finally worked was to create a new user within Windows7 to switch over too. Once the new user was created, they were able to open photoshop and normal functionality resumed. I'm not sure why photoshop would function for a little while and then suddenly stop in one user profile, but then another user profile would be able to continue to work.
The entire situation clears up upon reboot. There were NO error files logged.

Photoshop CS6 cannot open or create new file. This happened after running CCleaner

Photoshop CS6 cannot open or create new file. This happened after running CCleaner

Hi, I've been asked to join this discussion. CCleaner is a nice tool, but if you used the Registry Cleaner that came with it, it might have done something to Photoshop's registry entries. There is that danger in using them.
One thing CCleaner does is leave a backup of the registry, or you can use Windows System Restore to go to that point before you ran the Cleaner. Let's go with System Restore. Review the instructions.
System Restore - Microsoft Windows
If you suspect a virus, I'd like to direct you here http://bleepingcomputer.com/
That would be the "Am I infected?" forum.
They have the tools, you run them, and copy and paste the logs that are generated. They are very good at this, but it is super important you follow directions and don't leave until the process is completed.

Photoshop won't open or create new documents, works breifly after full windows restart.

Hi everyone,
I am having an issues with photoshop becoming unresponsive. After about 10 minutes Photoshop will not open or create a document.
I've spent hours trying to fix this with no results. I've spent time on Nvidia's forums and tried downgrading the driver back to 275.33 with the same results. I've disabled opengl in photoshop with the same results. This error occurs on both CS5 and CS6 versions of photoshop. I've tried reinstalling photoshop (not removing and reinstalling, just reinstalling).
I can't tell if it's a photoshop issue or a Nvidia issue. I've read countless threads on this forum and can't find any help. Please help.
I've made this video to show you the issues. Thank you for your help

Hi,
I'm having the same trouble as OP: Photoshop opens but will not create a new document or open an existing one. In addition to that, I've noticed that if you hammer on ctrl+n enough times and manage to actually get a document open, PS won't save it but will go through the motions of doing so.
There have been quite a few reports of this issue now over the last year or so and they seem specific to PS CS5 and up. They all remain unresolved. This is actually an easily searchable issue now.

I'm currently working on a big project across the suite and all the other Adobe applications are running fine.
I have tried all the suggested fixes with no result. One other issue that did become apparent, was re-installing PS. After uninstallation, the Adobe installer kept encountering "Exit Code 7" when trying to reinstall PS. The only way around this in the end seemed to be removing all Adobe software from the system and starting again. The original issue remains.
Finally, it's worth mentioning that PS CS5 has worked without any problems on this system for just under a year now. I haven't made any drastic changes to the system so I'm completely baffled as to why this is happening.
Hope this post goes some way to the issue being acknowledged and rectified.

Photoshop CS6 Cannot Open Files in Mavericks

I am not able to open files with Phoshop CS6 in Maverics. All of the files and folders are "Greyed" out with a circle to the left and not selectable.
Has anyone experienced this issue?

What OS version?
Have you tried disabling GPU drawing in Photoshop preferences?
Have you updated your video card driver from the GPU maker's website?

I just bought a new Mac Book Pro and did a migration of the content of the old laptop (also a Mac Book Pro) to the new one. Now I cannot start Photoshop CS6. When I am starting it I have a window "Adobe photoshop CS6 extended" opening requesting a connexion. When I am entering my password for the connexion the software crashes. How can I fix the problem?

Migrating, transferring or copying is DEMANDING trouble, not just asking for it.

Hi
I actually dont think its Lion (sorry i put that as couldn't remember) as not on that computer at the moment, its at home, I am at work. I know CS2 is compatable with whatever OS I am using because I can using CS2 indesign etc and I was able to use CS2 photoshop until I updated the Camino browser (I believe this is when it stopped working). I have CS5 but it wont work at all on my Powerbook G4.
I can send a message later with the OS I am using and maybe you can suggest other help? They told me in the MAC shop to try and get the installation discs. They also said I would be able to get these via Apple's 'media replacement programme' which I cannot find anyway! To be honest, I am not even sure getting the install discs will work but I'll try whatever I need to try and get Photoshop working on it again!
Thanks

Wanting to use Photoshop CS6 to open images directly from iPhoto 11.
Using OSX10.8.2 and iPhoto 11. Just installed Photoshop CS6 and want to open
images directly from iPhoto. Before I installed PS I was not able to edit photos
in iPhoto 11. Nothing happens when I click on ‘edit‘ it is blank.
And now it will not work using Photoshop CS6 either.
From Help Center I have gone to iPhoto/Preferences/ Advanced and chosen Photoshop CS6 to Edit Photos but then cannot find an 'Open' to click? Perhaps this is the problem?
When I select a photo in iPhoto and click the Edit button - nothing happens.
Please advise. Glenys

This may be of help to you:
Using Photoshop or Photoshop Elements as Your Editor of Choice in iPhoto.
1 - select Photoshop or Photoshop Elememts as your editor of choice in iPhoto's General Preference Section's under the "Edit photo:" menu.
2 - double click on the thumbnail in iPhoto to open it in Photoshop. When you're finished editing click on the Save button. If you immediately get the JPEG Options window make your selection (Baseline standard seems to be the most compatible jpeg format) and click on the OK button. Your done.
3 - however, if you get the navigation window
that indicates that PS wants to save it as a PS formatted file. You'll need to either select JPEG from the menu and save (top image) or click on the desktop in the Navigation window (bottom image) and save it to the desktop for importing as a new photo.
This method will let iPhoto know that the photo has been editied and will update the thumbnail file to reflect the edit..
NOTE: With Photoshop Elements the Saving File preferences should be configured as shown:
I also suggest the Maximize PSD File Compatabilty be set to Always. In PSE’s General preference pane set the Color Picker to Apple as shown:
Note: to switch between iPhoto and PS or PSE as the editor of choice Control (right)-click on the thumbnail and select either Edit in iPhoto or Edit in External Editor from the contextual menu. If you use iPhoto to edit more than PSE re-select iPhoto in the iPhoto General preference pane. Then iPhoto will be the default editor and you can use the contextual menu to select PSE for your editor when desired.

Have you updated your Photoshop to get the latest Camera Raw update patch? If not go to:

This should get you the necessary updates for your camera assuming it is not "too recent".
Good luck and post back.

I did not deactivate a photoshop cs6 before there was a new "C" hard drive installed on my computer and a Win7 Pro fresh install too. How can I activate photoshop on the new hardware if I can't deactivate it on the old hardware that is no longer available? Any help will be appreciated.

If it's the same machine (same CPU) there should not be any need to activate. The actiovation is tied to your CPU.

Photoshop CS6 is opening as trial version of CS6 extended

Suddenly my Photoshop CS6 is opening as a trial version of CS6 extended. Why? How do I make it stop, and open as it should?

I'm in the same boat, and now it's ended and I can't open CS6 at all. Plus I'm getting no support from Adobe on this over the weekend.
I tried re-installing on top of it, but that didn't help. I would completely un-install and try re-installing again, but think they'll leave something still stopping CS6 from opening.
Why they forced this on us, I don't know.

Cannot open link in new tap or window after update to v.5

I'd updated to V.5 and then found that it cannot open link in new tab or window, from google page, after updating. I'd reinstalled 2 times but it still be the same problem. How should I do? Please suggest.
Thanks.

This didn't fix the problem so I have decided to revert to the previous version: 24.6.0 esr. Maybe when version 31 or 32 come around I come back to the "latest" version?

Trying to edit video but Photoshop cs6 wont open the files.

Trying to edit video but Photoshop cs6 wont open the VOB files. I tried to change the extension to AVI and then drag it in. It works but it's distorted. All the heads in the photo are narrow and tall. Can anyone help me figure this thing out? I'm sooo frustrated! Thanks

I assume these came from a DVD? Was this DVD an encrypted holywood DVD or a home video that you got of something like sky diving? You'll probably need photoshop extended to switch pixel aspect ratios. Or convert them into a format that photoshop understands with a 1.0 pixel aspect ratio. Do you have access to adobe media encoder?
