Photoshop Images Won't Open/Show Up In Pieces???

I recently downloaded and installed Photoshop and I am having trouble opening anything. Any image that I try to open wont show up,I can see if fine in the thumbnail on my layers pallette but nothing on my actual workspace. Sometimes it will open but it will only show part of the image and as soon as I try to move it or even click on it, it disappers. Also if I open the image in a separate tab and try to drag it to my original work space, it will show up in pieces or sometimes like a tiled image. Any ideas? I have tried unistalling and reinstalling. Im hoping it is a setting or something simple...any ideas are appreciated!

Most likely your video driver. To test click edit/preferences/performance and uncheck use graphics processor. If that helps you can check advancved and use basic setting. Then update your video card driver.

Same here. I've never had trouble with this function before.
It opens the Photoshop application with all the menus/windows, but it never opens the actual image I chose to work on.
I'm on a Mac, using OS X Yosemite, 10.10.1 Lightroom is version 5.7 Photoshop is CS5, version 12.0.4
FWIW, I also can't automate>Photomerge ... . Makes me think Photoshop, not Lightroom, is all wacky. I tried dumping PS preferences

Photoshop CS5 won't open .kmz files

Photoshop CS5 won't open .kmz files. I did a fresh install of Google Earth, opened it, saved a place, and saved a .kmz file. It reopens fine in Google Earth.
When I try to open it in Photoshop, this message pops up:
File Format Error
This file is from a previous version of Google Earth or it is not a Google Earth file
I get this message regardless of the following:
- ps is closed and i right click the kmz and choose ps (rather than google earth) to open it
- ps is open and i double click the kmz
- ps is open and i choose file/open and select the kmz
- ps is open and i have created and saved a new psd file, then choose 3D/New Layer from 3D File/ and select the kmz
I have tried the usual remedies, change rwx permissions, repair permissions, delete prefs. No luck.
Any thoughts? Software versions are below.
Thanks.
- Photoshop CS5 Extended 12.0.4 x64 (doesn't work in x32 either)
- Google Earth 6.0.3.2197
- OS 10.6.8

I was trying to see (since Photoshop Extended touts the ability to open kmz files) if I could open a 3D Google Earth file and edit it in Photoshop. A file like this for instance http://ecotope.org/anthromes/maps/. After more research I've learned that kmz is nothing more that a container format - you can change the extension to zip and see what's in it.
I ran across this tidbit in the Photoshop CS3 Extended forum:
Photoshop CS3 Extended supports the ability to import .kmz files created from Google Earth 4 or exported from Sketch-up in the Google Earth 4 format. Photoshop CS3 Extended cannot open Google Earth files. If you have a Google Earth file, you can convert it to a Google Earth 4 format with the free version of Sketch-up.
So, theoretically if I could get a kmz into Google Earth 4 format, I could open it in Photoshop. But I haven't had any success importing a kmz or kml into SketchUp. Even just making a native sketchup file and trying to import that in psd gives a ram error.
Probably I'm wishing for the moon.

Try making a direct desktop icon for the Editor and see if you can launch the program directly from the desktop.
Right click anywhere on the desktop and select New à Shortcut
Browse to Computer OS C:
And find the PSE Editor application in Program Files or Program Files (x86) on Windows 7 - 64 bit.
C: à Program Files à Adobe à Photoshop Elements 9
Within the Photoshop elements 9 folder find PhotoshopElementsEditor.exe (with the blue icon)
Select that file and click Next.
Then click Finish.
You should now be able to launch by double clicking on the new desktop icon, bypassing the welcome screen.

Question

If images are missing then check that you aren't blocking images from some domains.
See:
* http://kb.mozillazine.org/Images_or_animations_do_not_load
* Check the permissions for the domain in the current tab in Tools > Page Info > Permissions
* Check that images are enabled: Tools > Options > Content: [X] Load images automatically
* Check the exceptions in Tools > Options > Content: Load Images > Exceptions
* Check the "Tools > Page Info > Media" tab for blocked images (scroll through all the images)
There are also extensions (Tools > Add-ons > Extensions) that can block images.
* [[Troubleshooting extensions and themes]]

Old folder of images won't open in Bridge

I've been finding today that all of a sudden images won't open and yet I can preview the images in my Mac finder window. It started when I tried to open an old folder of images and now I can't open any images anywhere, it's like it has got stuck on the old folder and won't budge.
I'm really desperate as now I can't do anything.
I'd really appreciate any advice people may have. I just tried purging the cache but that didn't appear to work and I think Bridge just hung so I just force quit. I have also tried restarting my Mac, but to no avail.
Thanks in advance.
Ross

Fixed it now. I held down shift, option and alt whilst clicking on the Bridge application icon in my dock. I was then able to reset everthing there. It took about 5 minutes for it to delete all the cached thumbnails and goodness knows what else, but at least now it works. technology, don't you just love it when it screws you over!

CS photoshop suddenly won't open after 5 years

CS photoshop suddenly won't open after running perfectly for 5 years. I do not have the original install disc.
Any suggestions? Apple and Adobe Tech folks could not help.

Cris (and Tai Lao)
there was no installation of a scanner (my Canon LiDe 500F scanner
has worked just fine for years) or camera driver (altho I had
recently downloaded some pix from my nikon onto iphoto) BUT— your
idea was brilliant!--disable Twain, which I did and ps launched
successfully!!
Now, as Tai Loa predicted, I can no longer import the scanner thru
ps. Given my current work crunch that's not so terrible, but how does
one access a scanner without using ps? If you have had just about
enough of me and want to pass on that question I'll understand.
I am ever so grateful to the two of you for making my ps usable
again, but it's midnight here in NYC and I have to pack up my tent
and look for your scanner question reply at the crack of dawn
tomorrow. It's been an exhausting anxiety-ridden day but I'm relieved
and grateful that there are bright people like both of you out there,
interested and willing to help. Many thanks.

Photoshop CS4 won't open Raw image

Not sure what happened, but when I edit a raw image, and push open Photoshop opens but does
not open the image. I just updated to 11.01, and updated camera raw to 5.6
I reinstalled Photoshop, and the updates and the same thing happens.
Any suggestions would be much appreciated.
Thanks in advance
P1Guy

Okay this could be a tough one.
I don't use bridge in my normal work flow, I use ACDSee v3 for viewing my photos and graphic designs.
I am a wildlife photographer and have over 300 gigs of photos dating back to 2007.
I just installed a 2 terrabyte HD, and copied these files to this hard drive so that I have two hard drives with these files on them in case of a HD failure.
I opened a file in Camera Raw, edited it, and choose open. Photoshop opened and the would not open the file, and more or less freezes with still some capabilities in the menu. It won't close if you try and exit, and I need to use task manager to close Photoshop.
I then opened bridge, and purged the cache on that file, reopened the same Raw file CR2, edited it in ACR and then opened it in Photoshope and it opened.
I opened and closed files in a lot of older files and it worked fine. Is there a way to purge all the files, or is this not a good thing to do?
I take photos almost on a daily basis, so going through each folder would be a huge task.

Photoshop 7 won't open an my image?!

I have been using a program called Theme Builder for Blackberry...I have set the preferences on this program to open any images I want to edit in Photoshop 7. The problem is when I click to edit an image (png), photoshop opens but all I get is a "new" window with the name of the image I want to edit in the "Title" field. When I select "ok" I get a white box in the top left corner of photoshop with nothing in it.
Could anybody tell me how to solve this problem as its really starting to annoy me and I can't find the answer anywhere.
Thanks in advance.

Have you tried starting Photoshop then doing File - Open to see if the file opens that way?

Photoshop EPS Won't Open/Distorted When Opened

The two problems I'm having revolve around Photoshop EPSs and Illustrator CS4.
I created a very high resolution file in Photoshop which included some vector shapes & text. My client wanted the files delivered in EPS format, so I exported them as Photoshop EPS.
Problem 1: If I check "Include Vector Data" when saving as Photoshop EPS, I am unable to open the file in Illustrator. Illustrator shows a "Parsing EPS Format..." dialogue box with a progress bar, and after about 10 seconds and the progress bar gets about halfway, it gives an error: "The operation cannot complete because of an unknown error." In addition, the EPS won't open in Photoshop, with the error: "Could not complete your request because photoshop was unable to parse the PostScript."
Problem 2: I am able to open the EPS file in Illustrator if I do not check "Include Vector Data" when saving, however the vector objects appear distorted. This also happens in PDF form.
I am certain the problems stem from the fact that the files are so large, because when I create a small test image in Photoshop and re-create the steps, I don't have any problems.
So I'd like some suggestions on either how to fix the problem or advice on a better way to deliver the files to my client. I'm a Web Designer by trade, but my boss just dropped this graphic design project into my lap and doesn't seem to understand that the two fields are vastly different. I use the Adobe Web Suite so I don't have InDesign, and even if I did I don't know how to use it. How do graphic designers keep their file sizes small when they're making such high-resolution designs?

I just wanted to thank Scott for the tip below, i had an eps file sent to me and encountered the problems outlined above (i am using CS3) followed Scotts advice and i am pleased to say it worked a treat. Well done internet and well done forum users!

I removed line containing a similar line as above "FF logo BLACK.eps EPSFART5 ,ë ;¿§¿§ õw " from the file header using Notepad and the EPS file opens in CS3. Remove everything prior to %!PS-Adobe and it should open.

Photoshop CS Won't Open

I have Photoshop CS and have been using it for a long time on this computer - and it has always been fine. I'm now trying to open it - and it basically won't open. The initialization takes forever (it was always long - but is REALLY long) and then I get a message that the application is not responding.
There is nothing new about the computer - no new hardware or software. And everything else runs fine.
I'm currently going through a procedure to see if I have a virus or some other kind of malware - but I'm wondering if anyone has had a similar experience - and if so, what the solution was.
Thanks in advance for your consideration.

Just found the answer to my problem. Getting rid of the twain files. Here's the link to the solution we found at another forum.
http://social.answers.microsoft.com/Forums/en-US/w7programs/thread/2ed659f5-8f3f-44d8-8a9d -a78f2abb7313
Here is the answer:
So I've been looking at this for quite a few hours over the last few days and good news! My thanks for your suggestions, but whilst trying multiple uninstalls of various software/services/drivers I noticed that when Photoshop fails to open it stopped at the same point. Before clicking "Look for solution online" or "Close program" I noted down that it was at the TWAIN loading screen. TWAIN is for scanners (took me a few moments before I remembered that). A search for "CS3 TWAIN problem" gives a few results but about third on the list for me was:
http://kb2.adobe.com/cps/330/330344.html
This is a link to an Adobe tech note that explains the exact problem I was having. Just in case the link stops working, here are the very simple steps:
On Windows:
Go to Program Files\Adobe\Adobe Photoshop CS2\Plug-Ins\Import-Export (Photoshop CS2), or Program Files\Adobe\Adobe Photoshop CS3\Plug-Ins\Import-Export (Photoshop CS3).
Right-click the Twain_32.8BA file and choose Rename.
Add a tilde (~) in front of the name and press Enter.
Note that Photoshop will no longer talk direct to scanners, but to be honest who cares. You can scan whatever you want using your scanning software and open the resulting image files in Photoshop.
I hope this helps others. Plus GREAT news, CS3 really IS compatible with Windows 7.
Good luck
Larry
