Photoshop CS6 will not open any graphics files

Photoshop cs6 will not open graphic files, i have reset the settings. I get to see all the files in preview but when I try to open a file nothing happens, no error messages, no file opens, nothing.
When I use bridge I try to open the file with open in photoshop cs6 but again nothing happens. I found that if I reboot my PC photoshop will work correctly until I shut photoshop down but if I reopen it later before rebooting my pc now graphics files will open.

  • Photoshop CS6 will not open files

    Right after rebooting my computer (Windows 7 Pro) I can open one photo file in CS6 using any normal method of opening a file in Photoshop. After closing that file I cannot open any more files using any method such as>Open Recent, File>Open, or right click open using Photoshop, by selecting the file, double-clicking to open it etc. I also cannot open a file in photoshop CS6 from Lightroom 5 using Photo>Edit In> Photoshop CS6. Everything works in Lightroom when I use Photo>Edit>open in CS6 Photoshop opens but the file doesn't.
    If I reboot my computer I can then open one file using any of those methods, but when I try to open an additional file it will not open. I have run through all the opening Photoshop without plugins suggestions and all the other suggestions about what may cause this problem which I have found on Photoshop Help and Support Center and nothing has worked.
    This started while Lightroom 4.4 and CS6 were on my machine and had been working well for months. Then, suddenly, I couldn't open anything in Photoshop. I know of no changes made to the computer. After trying various suggested solutions I reinstalled Photoshop CS6 and things seemed to be working so I went ahead with updating to Lightroom 5. The same problem popped up in CS6 again. Lightroom 5 and Lightroom 4.4 have both worked with no problems and still do. Photoshop seems to be the problem. I've also run an antivirus which found nothing.
    Any suggestions?

    Others have this same problem. See discussion at Re: Photoshop CS6 does not open or create files
    I finally got CS6 to work but have no idea what I did that caused it to start working properly again.

  • Firefox will not open any pdf files

    FF will not open any pdf files with built in viewer or adobe. I have set applications in all different ways with no luck. PDF works with IE.
    I have ff 33.1.1 and Win 7 and i have tried all suggestions concerning pdf. I even downloaded ff again, uninstalled oldff, and installed new. no luck. all i get is a pop up stating ...download is in progress, please wait.... but it never loads. started after last update. Is ther a way to delete the last update to firefox?
    thanks

    Hello,
    In order to change the default reader for PDF files (to not open PDF files with Firefox's internal PDF reader), follow these steps:
    #Click the menu button [[Image:New Fx Menu]] and click Options (Preferences for Linux and Mac).
    #In the Options (Preferences for Linux and Mac) window, select the ''Applications'' panel.
    #In the ''Search'' field, type ''PDF''. You should find ''Portable Document Format (PDF)''.
    #On the right hand side you should find an ''Action'' column. Use that to select your favorite PDF reader. In order to view PDF files in Firefox, choose ''Preview in Firefox''.
    Did this fix your problems? Please report back to us!
    Thank you.

  • Photoshop CS6 Will not open files\create new\function properly

    Hello,
    I have a licensed Photoshop CS6 installed on Windows 8.1 64bit.
    This morning the software has started to have the following issue:
    Photoshop will not create any new files (With the exclusion of spamming CTRL+N I have managed to open a new project)
    Photoshop will not load an existing file through its panel of any format (double click on file yet nothing happens)
    While trying to use any tool I have noticed that some of the clicks (Mouse or Keyboard) do not go through - some of them are being generated and some are not.
    Sometimes Photoshop will not respond to clicks - if I drag a window other it forcing explorer to refresh the desktop the changes are being shown - otherwise Photoshop will remain stuck
    After browsing the web for hours I have noticed a few people had similar issues as I have yet non of the steps which helped them to solve this issue have done any good to me.
    I have taken the following steps:
    Turned off "Use Graphic Processor"
    Re-booted my computer
    Re-installed Photoshop
    Updated my graphic card's drivers
    I have read another thread talking about some Nvidia cards which encounter issue with drivers yet I'm using an Radeon card - My PC spec:
    Intel i7-3770 @ 3.4GHz
    8GB RAM
    ATI Radeon R7 200
    Windows 8.1
    I have made the following video which describes the issues: (The black screen is me popping ALT+CTRL+DEL)

    Thank you in advance!

    We've heard of a few examples of this - but they always seem to come down to other applications interfering with UI in Photoshop, malware, or needing to reinstall the OS.
    There have only been a handful of reports, and we haven't been able to isolate the cause - but we know that it is something outside of Photoshop.  Sometimes it works shortly after rebooting the system, but then fails until the system is rebooted again (very strong evidence that the cause is outside of Photoshop).  A few people have reported that after reinstalling the OS, the problem went away.

  • Purchased new camera nikon d7100 and camera raw will not open any nef files, talked to tech support and they assured me an update would fix issue, did update and have  same issue still

    I have photoshop cs5 and after purchasing a nikon d7100, photoshop will not open any of the nef files like it did with my nikon d90, I contacted support and they assured me after update that issue would be resolved...still not resolved, any suggestions?

    Good day!
    Please check this list to see which version of ACR supports the camera:
    Camera Raw plug-in | Supported cameras
    Then please check your version (Photoshop > About Plug-In > Camera Raw).
    As you should see your version is not up to the task.
    You can either buy a license for a more current version of Photoshop (CS6 is still available) or switch to the … Cloud License model or use the free DNG Converter.

  • How do i Restore Preview as my default viewer when using Safari,seems adobe has hi jacked Safari,if i uninstall adobe safari will not open any pdf files.

    How do i restore Preview as my default viewer.
    Seems adobe has hi-jacked Safari and and opens using abobe not preview.
    Have uninstalled adobe but safari then will not display any pdf files.
    Preview still works fine to view existing downloaded files.

    Niac --
    What kind of files?  PDFs?  or Others as well?
    If you want Preview to open all PDFs, then find a PDF on your HD.
    Highlight it, and then press the Apple/Comand key along with th letter " i " key.
    When the window comes up, look down to the "Open with" line, and change it from Adobe to Preview.
    Then look slightly below, and select "Change All."
    Now, all PDFs should open with Preview.

  • Photoshop CS6 will not read my raw files

    I have both a Canon 5D Mark 3 and a Canon 70D and CS6 will not read my RAW files.  I have to convert them to DNG to work on them.  Suggestions?

    According to this Adobe help link, the 5D Mark III had support since Camera Raw version 7.1 and the 70D had support since version 8.2, which CS6 should support fully. (CS6 supports up to the latest Camera Raw, which is version 8.7 as of this post.)
    Is everything updated? (Help > Updates in Photoshop.)

  • Adobe Reader XI will not open any PDF file

    I have tried removing and reloading reader.  I have also tried using the WIndows Control Panel to repair the Adobe file.  Nothing has helped.  I cannot open Adobe Reader XI directly from the programs folder.  Nor will it open any PDF file when I double click the file.  I am running WIndows XP.

    Some other things to try...
    Update to Reader version 11.0.5
    Can you open Adobe Reader by itself?  If so, try disabling Protected Mode [Edit | Preferences | Security (Enhanced)].
    If you cannot open Reader by itself, try to disable Protected Mode in the registry; download, unzip, then run the attached registry script
    It could even be a malware issue; see http://helpx.adobe.com/acrobat/kb/reader-core-dll-error.html

  • Photoshop CC will not open any files nor create new ones.

    The program itself opens, and I can select different tools to use, but it will not let me make files or open old ones. My Photoshop is purchased through my school for my college classes.

    Without system info and other details nobody can know. chances are it's simply the good old hardware acceleration stuff, so simply turn it off in the performance prefs.

  • Unable to start Photoshop CS6 - could not open a scratch file because the file is locked (Windows)

    When I first installed Adobe Photoshop CS6 I was unable to run Photoshop or Bridge CS6.  Photoshop would give me an error about "could not open a scratch file because the file is locked.  If I ran either of these programs as an administrator they would run without issue, this led me to believe that there was a permission issue somewhere.  After some digging I found out the both Bridge and Photoshop try to create a temp file (similiar to Photoshop Temp2777223910092) on the c:\ drive of the computer.  In my case the user that I was logged in with did not have access to write to the root of the C:\ drive.  Note that you run the program as the administrator and change the scratch disk location as that changes the preference for the administrator user and not the user that you are currently logged in as.
    To get around this issue I first had to give the user that I was logged on with write permissions to the root of the C:\ drive.  Next try and run Photoshop, you will get an error another error about the scratch disk and about and invalid or missing setting file.  To correct this you need to have run Photoshop as an administrator, next you can go to Users\Admin\AppData\Roaming\Adobe\Adobe Photoshop CS6\Adobe Photoshop CS6 Settings and copy Adobe Photoshop CS6 Prefs and/or Adobe Photoshop X64 CS6 Prefs to Users\<your logged in username>\AppData\Roaming\Adobe\Adobe Photoshop CS6\Adobe Photoshop CS6 Settings.
    Photoshop and bridge should now start up with no issues.
    I hope that this can help others out there as this caused me a great deal of frustration when upgrading to CS6.

    OK, here comes the explanation of what the scratch disk does and why it's optimal to have it on a physically separate internal drive (not partition!) other than your boot drive
    I probably shouldn't say anything since it could complicate this thread, but the rules of thumb can be different under special circumstances when SSD is involved.
    IF you have a LOT of empty space on your SSD-based system drive, then Photoshop can actually work great with it's scratch setting pointed at the system drive.  This is because a) SSD transfers are much faster than spinning hard drives and b) there's no seek time, so simultaneous transfers to/from scratch and swap files aren't devastating to performance, and you can see a net gain because of the increased I/O throughput over what's possible using a separate spinning drive for scratch.
    But if you don't have a huge amount of free space (hundreds of GB) on the system SSD, it's definitely better to use a separate drive, as station_two has said.
    Also, up to about a year or so ago, you had to try to severely limit write activity to your SSD drive, since you could actually wear them out by repeated high data write activity.  That's pretty much a non-issue now with the advent of things like the SandForce in-drive controller that does wear-leveling inside the drive.  Modern drives will last 10 years or more in normal typical use, without special consideration.
    As it turns out, making a RAID array of SSDs is a great way to boost performance across the board, have bunches of free space, and ensure even the heaviest usage doesn't shorten the drive life.  I have done so, creating a 2 TB system drive C: made from 4 SSDs and Photoshop's swap file (and pretty much everything else) pointed to C:.  This system flies, and I can barely tell when Photoshop and/or Windows "goes virtual" and starts using its scratch/swap files heavily.  I don't even notice Photoshop auto-saves.
    Sorry for the SSD diversion.
    Back on topic: 
    Pretty much everyone who's successfully using a computer - Mac and PC users alike - comes to realize after a while that the task of integrating things on their computers and making everything work falls on THEM, not the developers of applications like Adobe.  Some applications pose unique challenges, but to think you can just throw up your hands and try to make it someone else's problem when something goes wrong simply isn't a viable strategy.  Maybe that's how things should be, but it's not how it is.
    For those of you struggling to get Photoshop to run properly, bear in mind that it's on you to get things working.  It works for most folks.  It could be a configuration or setup choice you've made that may need revisiting, or some kind of restorative activity that you need to do, or even something very minor like clearing your Photoshop preferences, but it may well take your learning new things and doing things you didn't think you'd have to do to get back to where you can edit photos.  It's no one's problem but your own.
    So let us here on the forum help you - when we say to do something, try it.  We're not here to jerk you around; we're users just like you who have already found the ways to make things work, and we'd like to help you do the same.

  • Adobe 9 worked fine, then just stopped working.  Loaded adobe 11 and it will not open any .pdf files

    Why can't I get Adobe Reader 11 to work at all??  Won't open, repaired via Windows XP as suggested, does not help.  Will not open files in Emails, or stored on the disk. HELP!!!!!

    No, neither vers. 9 nor 11 will do anything by itself, no errors, no nothing, hourglass shows up for about 10-15 seconds, no message, no nothing.  Very frustrating, to say the least.  When you have 11 loaded it says Acrobat failed to load its core .DLL but this is several minutes later.  Can’t find anything relating to that problem.  Any help would be appreciated as I have some very important files that cannot be opened.

  • Photoshop CS5 will not open some tiff files

    I'm running Windows 7 64-bit and I'm using Photoshop CS5 as my default program for opening .jpg and .tif files.
    Recently I installed a new scanner (Canon Lide210) and I usually save the scanned images as .tif files (for manipulation later).
    Images in .tif format saved from scans with my old Canon scanner (that does not work with Windows 7) open fine in Photoshop but images from the new scanner will not open (message says 'Could not complete your request because the file is not compatible with this version of Photoshop').
    Can anyone help with this? I always thought tifs were tifs and didn't realise there could be different 'versions'.
    I do a lot of detailed artwork and it's important that I can work with tif files (and preferably with this new scanner!!)
    Thanks for your help

    Thank you all for your help.
    The scanner options are to save as JPEG/Exif, TIFF or BMP (with standard, low compression or high compression).
    I've just scanned a colour photo and saved it in all three formats (standard compression). All the files now open in PS, with the Camera Raw preview screen (which I've never seen before!).
    I've also scanned a black and white drawing, both as a B&W photo and as a B&W document, and saved these scans as TIFFs. Both these now open in PS. The older files that I have not been able to open in PS still do not open. (These files open in MSoft Picture Manager and Quicktime Picture Viewer - though the quality is awful in Picture Viewer.)
    It seems to me that whatever was causing the problem might have been 'cured' by some recent software update.
    Do you think this is the likely answer? If you'd still be interested to look at one of the rogue files then I could upload one.
    Thanks

  • Premiere Pro CC will not open any prproj files.

    I'm working on a feature length.  We have a premiere in 2 weeks!  My PC computer shut down yesterday afternoon so I did not restart.  (It sometimes does this)  When I switched it on this morning, I tried to start Premiere Pro but it moved at a crawl and then went into a Not responding mode.  I tried several other times to no avail.  I did an update...no help.  I uninstalled Premiere Pro and reinstalled...still will not open a file.  I need to finish this edit!!!  Any help is appreciated.
