Photoshop error sound.

When ever i double click on a layer it opens up a small box that allows me to mess with the drop shaddows, inner shaddows, etc... For some reason all of a sudden when I double click it it gives me an error message and locks up the program. Nothing pops up anymore and I have to hit enter 2x before it will unlock the program... Is there something I did with out noticing it??
thank you...

Press and hold Ctrl - Shift - Alt simultaneously IMMEDIATELY after starting Photoshop from its menu item or shortcut. You'll be prompted to clear Photoshop preferences.
Note that you'll have to set all your personal preferences again after doing this. This is mostly things found in Edit - Preferences, but also includes things like History options and others.

Please read this whole message before doing anything.
This procedure is a diagnostic test. It’s unlikely to solve your problem. Don’t be disappointed when you find that nothing has changed after you complete it.
The purpose of the test is to determine whether the problem is caused by third-party software that loads automatically at startup or login, or by a peripheral device.
Disconnect all wired peripherals except those needed for the test, and remove all aftermarket expansion cards. Boot in safe mode and log in to the account with the problem. Note: If FileVault is enabled, or if a firmware password is set, or if the boot volume is a software RAID, you can’t do this. Ask for further instructions.
Safe mode is much slower to boot and run than normal, and some things won’t work at all, including Wi-Fi on certain iMacs. The next normal boot may also be somewhat slow.
The login screen appears even if you usually log in automatically. You must know your login password in order to log in. If you’ve forgotten the password, you will need to reset it before you begin. Test while in safe mode. Same problem? After testing, reboot as usual (i.e., not in safe mode) and verify that you still have the problem. Post the results of the test.

How to switch off the error sound in Triversity

Hi
How to switch off the error sound in Triversity, The audio of the computer is already in mute state. The problem is found with DELL pc and not with HP

Mohammed,
There is, actually, a better way to get rid of that annoying beep every time you get a policy prompt, error, etc.
I have a Dell Vostro 1300 and I have done this in other Dell laptops with sucess. Perform the following:
Go to Control Panel --> System --> (on the HARDWARE tab) Click on DEVICE MANAGER
In DEVICE MANAGER, click on VIEW --> SHOW HIDDEN DEVICES
Now, go to "NON-PLUG AND PLAY DRIVERS" and you will see "BEEP" listed as an active device. Right click on it and select "DISABLE" and then reboot your laptop.
You should be golden right after the reboot.
Hope this helped,
Alfredo Carigga

Just tried installing an update to OS. Although the screen tells me that the installation will be completed in less than one minute, that was two hours ago, and the computer won't permit me to shut it down via the power button, as I get an error sound.

Just tried installing an update to OSX Snow Leopard. Prior to trying to update OS, I was running V 10.6.3. During installation, it locked up. Although the screen tells me that the installation will be completed in less than one minute, that was two hours ago, and the computer won't permit me to shut it down via the power button, as I get an error sound. What do I do now? Help!

Hold the power key till it shuts down, it may take a little while, try holding it thru the warning.
Then if it shuts down restart and open Safari/Preferences, General tab, and set "Save Downloaded Files to:"
Select desktop, if desktop is not available in the the drop down menu, click other, then select Desktop from the column from the on the left.
Then download this:
http://support.apple.com/kb/DL1399
This will download the "stand alone installer"
Click on the installer pkg and follow the prompts.
Hope this helps

File is not compatible with this version of Photoshop error

Computer crashed yesterday and now I am getting "File is not compatible with this version of Photoshop" error and unable to opening in PS CS5 or Fireworks CS5. Any ideas? Also tried the PS repair download and would rather not pay $30 to find out it can't do it. Seems like a common error but in all of the forums I haven't found a solid answer. Appreciate some real advise.
Thanks in advance

This is the free app that all the PSD repair hacks are based on: Telegraphics - Free plugins for Photoshop & Illustrator...and other software
There are 3 possible reasons for that error: file corruption on disk, more than 8000 layers in the file, or a layer somehow went over 30,000 pixels in a PSD file (which would be legal in PSB, but not in PSD).

Error sound every time I add or modify an ical entry

Ever since I upgraded to MobilMe and iPhone push, I get the error sound (the "sosumi") if I change or add an event in Ical (eg, move an event to a new date, or change a time or even a word in the event.) The change does take effect and propagate, but the error sound is incredibly annoying. Thoughts?

soulbarn,
How many calendars do you have?
Are any of them subscribed/birthdays?
iCal Help Topic "If you can't change an event or calendar" says:
If you can’t change an event or calendar, check the following:
If it’s a calendar to which you’ve subscribed, you can change the calendar name but you can’t change its events or to-do items.
If you were invited to an event, you can change only your status for the event, the calendar where the event appears, and the event alarm.
You can’t change or delete events on the Birthdays calendar. (To show the Birthdays calendar, select “Show Birthdays calendar” in iCal preferences.) To change the birthdays that appear, open Address Book (in your Applications folder) and make your changes there. For more information, in Address Book choose Help > Address Book Help.
Open Address Book
If you can’t change a single event’s time zone or the iCal time zone, time zone support may be turned off. Choose iCal > Preferences, click Advanced, and then make sure the “Turn on time zone support” checkbox is selected.
If you want to change events on a calendar that you published on the Internet, but you’ve deleted the calendar from your Calendars list, you need to re-create the calendar with all its events, give it the same name as the published calendar, and then publish the new calendar. The new calendar will replace the previously published one.
If you can’t change an event for which you are the organizer, or you can’t change the attendee settings for an event you’ve been invited to, make sure all your email addresses are listed on your Address Book card (the card marked “me”).

My Macbook Pro makes the Windows Critical Error sound randomly.

So recently my MacBook Pro 17" Late 2011 has been making the Windows critical error sound just out of the blue. It even happens when the sound is off or the lid is closed. I do not have a windows program open but i do have VMWare and Windows installed on it but it happens even with the program closed down. Has anyone ever heard of this happening?

When I turn on my MacBook pro, I get the 'macintosh he's symbol. Then, at my login, certain keys (I,e,u) get an error sound, and I can't log in. Anyone know what's up?

Oh, I'm on my phone because if the problem, so I put the whole question in the title. But, the problem is that my computer acts like I've got the alt key down I start up, and gives me an error sound when I hit certain keys (e i, u, and a few othes) so I can't log in. Help?

You showed a kernel panic file from OS X, apprantly Log Me In is installed into OS X or running when you log in.
You should be using the developers installer/unistaller to remove Log Me In from OS X.
Somehow it's in OS X, I don't know, but it's there and you need to remove it. I'm not dealing with Windows, just OS X.
Talk to Log Me In people and find out what is installed where so you can do a manual deletion out of OS X.
If that doesn't work, you have to reboot holding the Shift key down manually search for any Log Me In or Himachi files on your computer, in your System/Library/Extensions folder too, use the free Easy Find.

Can anyone explain an error sound and erratic control of wireless mouse

Hi people. I have a 21inch iMac from September 2013, just before Apple gave iMac a minor hardware update to the processor.
Within 9 months of purchase i have had this weird problem.
The problem is the "sound you get from the iMac when you press a key on the keyboard and its an error". Well... that error sound sometimes continues as if constantly pressing a key.
Even though I've just switched on the computer this sound occurs.
To add to that odd problem i have strange control over the wireless mighty mouse.
If i go to the task bar at the top of the screen and select the Apple icon and attempt to shut down or any selection for that matter, the cursor jumps from one selection to the other. And there are occasions when the Macintosh HD icon on the right of the desktop is highlighted in blue as if i have selected it.
Batteries in mouse are new Duracell and from the same new packet.

There are several possible causes for this issue. Please take each of the following steps that you haven't already tried until it's resolved. Some may not apply in your case.
1. Follow the instructions in this support article, and also this one, if applicable. A damaged or defective AC adapter could be the cause, even if it's the right kind.
2. Press down all four corners of the trackpad at once and release. If there's any effect, it's likely to be temporary, and in that case the unit must be serviced or replaced.
3. Open the Bluetooth preference pane in System Preferences and delete all pointing devices other than the trackpad, if applicable. Disconnect any USB pointing devices. By a "pointing device," I mean a peripheral that moves the cursor, such as a trackpad, mouse, trackball, or graphics tablet. A plain keyboard is not a pointing device.
4. Start up in safe mode and test, preferably without launching any third-party applications. If you don't have the problem in safe mode, but it comes back when you restart as usual, stop here and post your results. Do the same if you can't start in safe mode. If there was no difference in safe mode, go on to the next step.
5. Reset the System Management Controller.
6. If you're using a Bluetooth trackpad or mouse, investigate potential sources of interference, including USB 3 devices.
7. A swollen battery in a portable computer can impinge on the trackpad from below and cause erratic behavior. If you have trouble clicking the trackpad, this is likely the reason. The battery must be replaced without delay.
8. There's a report that a (possibly defective) Thunderbolt Ethernet adapter can cause the built-in trackpad of a MacBook to behave erratically. If you're using such an adapter, disconnect it and test.
9. There's also a report of erratic cursor movements caused by an external display that was connected but not turned on.
10. If none of the above applies, or if you have another reason to think that your computer is being remotely controlled, remove it from the network by turning off Wi-Fi (or your Wi-Fi access point), disconnecting from a Bluetooth network link, and unplugging the Ethernet cable or USB modem, whichever is applicable. If the cursor movements stop at once, you should suspect an intrusion.
11. Make a "Genius" appointment at an Apple Store to have the machine and/or external trackpad tested.

Error sound on mac when switching tab with cmd+right arrow

On Firefox 3.6.9 and OSX 10.6.4, when I switch to a tab to the right using cmd+right arrow, I get an error sound but Firefox successfully switches to the tab. The error sound is the same sound you get when you press a keyboard shortcut that doesn't exists (ex: cmd+?)
However, if I use cmd+left arrow I don't get the error sound.
How can I eliminate the error sound?

I am just finally posting a reply. Looks as though the sound card went out. I was told that I could purchase a new open and install myself. I did not do that, but rather my step-dad just decided it was time to buy a new Mac Mini.

I am getting a photoshop error could not load photoshop because the preferences file was invalid and cln't load actions because of an unexpected end of file encountered.

I am getting a photoshop error could not load photoshop because the preferences file was invalid and cln't load actions because of an unexpected end of file encountered.

Are you trying to open Photoshop directly, or open it by double clicking on a Photoshop document, like a PSD file? If the former, then you might need to reinstall. Resetting Preferences would be the firs step, but I am not sure if that will work if Photoshop is not opening in the first place.
Try doing so anyway. Hold down Shift Alt Ctrl (Shift Opt Cmd) while opening Photoshop. OK the message to delete Preferences.
If you get the unexpected end of file error while trying to open Photoshop via a PSD document, then there is more than a good chance that that file is toast.
If still stuck, we need to know Operating System, and Photoshop version.
