Photoshop will not open: error code 148:3. Restarting computer doesn't help. Is my only option reinstalling the program?

?

That's a licensing error. You can read through several possible solutions here. Also, you can download the Adobe Licensing Repair Tool, which is suggested in the first solution.

    Just replaced my hard drive on my Mac book pro. Photoshop will not open error 150:30

    This is more of a Photoshop question than a Mac question. I typed the error into Google and there seems to be multiple threads about it in the Adobe forums. Here is one:

    Hi, Ken -
    Since you have a new install of OSX, you may be missing Stuffit Expander, needed to expand downloads encrypted/archived in a Stuffit format. That problem confronted me with a new machine running OSX 10.6; a download and install of Stuffit Expander fixed it.
    You can download Stuffit Expander from this webpage -

    Note - be sure to get the version that matches your OSX version.

  • My photoshop will not load, error message 148.3

    my photoshop will not load, error message is 148.3

    This is a licensing error. The usual fix is to reinstall the program after running the Creative Suite Cleaner Tool. also read this:
    Error "Licensing has stopped working" | Windows
    Error "Licensing has stopped working" | Mac OS
    If you can't fix it, you will have to provide more info like system specs and what version of PS you actually use...

  • After installation CC, Photoshop will not open. Program error?

    I got a subscription on Creative Cloud. Downloaded CC and Photoshop, but Photoshop will not open. After the splash-screen, it says something about a program error, and then it stops. I deleted CC and PS and reinstalled everything, but still the same result. I work on a Mac, and all software is up to date..

    1. try resetting your preferences:  hold down shift-ctrl-cmd while starting ps.  you'll see a confirmation dialog if done correctly.
    2. if that fails, uninstall, clean and reinstall following the help here, http://www.adobe.com/support/contact/cscleanertool.html

    Printer will not work: error code 0xc19a0022

    Hello citizenED,
    Welcome to the HP Forums.
    I see that you are getting the error code " 0xc19a0022 " .
    I do have a few steps that we can try. 
    First off, please make sure that you have the printer power cable connected directly to a wall outlet and not a power bar/strip. Here is a document that uses a LaserJet printer as an example but it is meant for HP products in general. Please click on the following link that explains the Issues when Connected to an Uninterruptible Power Supply/Power Strip/Surge Protector.
    I have also located a document that deals with a 'Problem with Printhead,' 'Printer Failure,' 'Ink System Failure,' or a '0x...' or a 'C2...' Error ...
    If the troubleshooting does not help resolve your issue, I would then suggest calling HP's Technical Support to see about further options for you. If you are calling within North America, the number is 1-800-474-6836 and for all other regions, click here: click here.
    Thanks for your time.

  • Photoshop will not open in a Creative Cloud trial,

    Photoshop will not open in a Creative Cloud trial, although Indesign & other programs are fine, says I need an internet connection or the clock is set wrong?

    Only tried the Photoshop Elements, and haven’t change computer name or time

    Mac,
    Nothing shows up here?

    With CS5 you must have registered, hopefully under your present Adobe ID.

  • 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:
    http://forums.adobe.com/message/3306200#3306200
    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.

  • HT2476 cannot find java runtime and photoshop will not open

    running OSX Lion on iMac Photoshop will not open. It says I need to update Java Runtime, but I do not have any updates. It says I am not connected to the internet and I am obviously since I am here. Help!!!!

    I downloaded and it opens, but everytime I quit photoshop I get a crash report! there is nothing different except that I upgraded to Lion. Can I uninstall and run Snow Leopard and if so....how do I do that?
    Also, I just downloaded an upgrade to Topaz and it says cannot install on this computer...it is my main plugin for PS
    If you have gone to the Topaz developer's site and see no update for Photoshop in Lion, then all you can really do is contact them to see if they ever intend to update it.  What verion of Photoshop are you using by the way?
    Otherwise

  • Photoshop will not open unless as Admin but that causes other problems

    Hi all,
    There are two problems:
    1.  If I don't run photoshop as an administrator
    2.  If I run photoshop as an administrator.
    1.  If I don't run as administrator, Photoshop will NOT open.  I can't even open .psd by double clicking them.  Can't open from the installed directory, can't open from shortcuts.  It only works if I right click run as admin or set properties to run as admin. 
    I am the only user for the system, and I have even taken ownership of all files.  Yet, it still requires me to run as admin.  I am running CS5 with windows 7 64bit.
    2.  If I run as admin I cannot drag or drop files into PS.  As detailed in here - http://forums.adobe.com/message/3640635.  I can open files manually through file menu, but dragging and dropping is disabled (shows a circle with a slash when i drag into PS). Their solution in the forum was to remove running as admin.  But if I do that, I get problem 1.
    Any ideas?
    Jason

    Option 1:  Clearly something went wrong when installing Photoshop, or you have changed permissions on your system for some part(s) Photoshop needs to access.  Verify, for example, that you have Full Control access to the root of the hard drive you have identified as scratch.  A reinstall of Photoshop might correct this.
    Option 2:  Windows UAC is likely the culprit here.  Some folks choose to turn off UAC completely, which means you'll be running everything as Administrator all the time, but that should not be done without FULLY understanding what UAC does for you and what additional measures you'll take to ensure your system doesn't get infected with malware.
