Photoshop wont open over something I did a long time ago
I have photoshop downloaded but it wont open. You see, I had it from a free trial from last year and the button is still in my computer. So now that I have the Cloud AND Photoshop I was hoping it could work again but now, when I get to that page with the big blue button that says "Download" nothing happens!!!
What I think is that a while ago when I FIRST got to that page, I clicked it there was a pop out that said Run, the usual. BUT I clicked something then checked to do it each time (I dont remember WHAT option I clicked) but now NOTHING HAPPENS!!!! PLEASE help!
Hi there,
Welcome to the Community!
We would need system information or which operating system are you using? Are you on Creative cloud website and clicking on download?
To start please go to https://creative.adobe.com/products/creative-cloud and download Creative cloud app after that you can install any software you want including Photoshop. If you click on Download and nothing happens, it seems to be a problem with a browser, change the browser and try again.
Thanks!

i just downloaded the new update for itunes and the itunes store wont open up it is taking a long time it still hasnt loaded since 5pm, i also cant sighn in either it just keeps on saying accessing itunes....
Close your iTunes,
Go to command Prompt -
(Win 7/Vista) - START/ALL PROGRAMS/ACCESSORIES, right mouse click "Command Prompt", choose "Run as Administrator".
(Win XP SP2 & above) - START/ALL PROGRAMS/ACCESSORIES/Command Prompt
In the "Command Prompt" screen, type in
netsh winsock reset
Hit "ENTER" key
Restart your computer.
If you do get a prompt after restart windows to remap LSP, just click NO.
Now launch your iTunes and see if it is working now.
If you are still having these type of problems after trying the winsock reset, refer to this article to identify which software in your system is inserting LSP:

I changed my AppleID a long time ago to an email that I no longer use and I have updates for apps that I can't update because my old email is filled in to where i sign in and it wont let me change it to my new one???
The problem with those two apps is that they are supposed to be in your Apple ID and you didn't set up the Mac properly/completely when you got it.
You might try deleteing them and using OS X Recovery to install them again.
OS X Recovery -

After that, before you open any iLife apps go to your Mac App Store account, to the Purchased pane and Accept them into your account. -
I deleted the photos via Finder and empty trash long time ago. The thing is, that I want to recover one event or album. The event appears in the iphoto but when open, it shows "!". Is it possible to recover the photos?
No. When you removed the photos via the finder you damage the library. Photos should always be removed from the library using iPhoto, never with the Finder.
If you have a Time Machine backup of the library from before you deleted the photos you can restore the library to the Desktop and export that album from it to import into your current library.
It's been too long to be able to try one of the file recovery applications. You sure to have overwritten those files with new files since them.

Just updated my I pad 2 and some of my apps are dim and say waiting. Is this something that takes a long time or could something be wrong?
That means they are in the queue to be updated.
If everything is working it will depend on the speed of your wifi connection as to how long it takes. -
I have just purchased a subscription of Acrobat XI Pro, which I installed in my computer a long time ago, when I first tried it. Alas, I cannot open the application, which keeps asking me for a serial number I have not yet received. What the hell is going on?

I had appleworks a LONG time ago - is it possible to open my old files?
Hello and thank you for your help!
I had appleworks on an old Mac (not sure of the type) and about 2 years ago I transferred all my documents onto CDs and got rid of the Mac. I now have a new MacBook and have imported all my document files onto the new Mac. I was wondering if it were possible to open my old Appleworks documents on my new mac? It seems that Microsoft word and textedit both dont recognize the files.
Is there a way to convert the files to .doc?
Is there a program I need to buy to open the files?
Is Appleworks still available? If so, how can I obtain it? Best buy?
Thank you and have a great day!AppleWorks 6.2.4 or 6.2.9 will run very well on any current Mac. It's not for sale through Apple or most resellers, but it can be found. Since you have an Intel Mac you aren't able to use Classic, so you do have to make sure that the AppleWorks installer is for AppleWorks 6.2 or later. Earlier installers required OS 8/9.
You could try eBay and do a search for "AppleWorks" or "Apple Works" (some people put a "space" in the name). Hardcore Mac sells AppleWorks 6.2.4. It might be difficult to be sure the version for sale on eBay it's no newer than 6.2.4 and has an OS X-aware installer.
BTW, 2 years is not a long time ago when talking about AppleWorks 6, considering it was released in March, 2000, last updated in January, 2004, & declared end-of-life in August, 2007. -
Ok now i cant figure this out. i installed the recent security update and now things are going screwy. i go to open up photoshop and it wont open. the dock icon bounces then goes away leaving me wondering whats going on. I uninstalled and re installed the whole Creative Suite but photoshop still wont budge. It was working just fine before the security update and now i duno what. is this to blame or is there something else?
Ok, I got this right from the source, so ideally it will work. OK
Follow the directions, repost and let me know
MAC OS10:
First, be sure to BackUp your data, then run Mac Software Update (located in System Preferences) to bring the Operating System (OS) and Mac firmwares up to date. And run all the Adobe Updaters adobe.com.
Ruling out the User account and routine maintenance are the first steps in troubleshooting crash freeze stability problems, including setting up clean User Account, and using Disk Utility to Repair Disk and Repair Permissions, Safe Boot, and running fsck -y.
If the problem clears logged into a new "Spare User" account, a User's account preference is corrupted. If the problem does not clear in a new "Spare User" account, the problem is likely system wide, or hardware.
Rule out RAM gballard.net is also important troubleshooting. In addition to crashing, kernel panics, Type 1 Type 2 Type 3 errors, Unexpectedly Quiting, corrupted files and disk errors, typical symptoms of bad Ram in Photoshop include rows lines patches of bad pixels on screen that also print (the actual file is being corrupted). If the bad pixel areas are on the monitor, but do not print (the actual file is not corrupted), video card or video-card drivers are prime suspects. Remember, video cards also have flash firmwares to flash update.
Test Hardware Interface gballard.net for the hardware's ability to transfer data free of corruption on hard disk drive interfaces (such as SCSI, IDE, etc.). See the bottom of the linked page and DOWNLOAD Timothy A. Seufert's dctest. Dctest assumes that your CPU and memory and disk are working fine. There are OS9 and OSX versions in the download.
Bad Damaged Hard Drives:
If running Apple's Disk Utility's FirstAid Repair Disk and Repair Permissions, and the Mac's fsck -y Unix command cannot fix any all disk problems, I would recommend running third-party disk utilities BEWARE! gballard.net only as a last resort.
Bad Blocks apple.com on the hard drive can also cause a computer to be very unstable....
"Haxies," those free/shareware, application and user hacks that modify various System features, application programs and plug-ins, including bad fonts and font management gballard.net, are also prime SUSPECTS to troubleshoot and rule out, as are flaky video–card drivers. Check your video card manufacturer web site for video card firmware updaters, new drivers and compatibility issues.
Another thing to troubleshoot for is illegal Unix characters in the file names starting from the hard drive name down. These illegal characters may include: * ~ / + ! " é ñ ; : ) ? (see Mac and Windows OS File/Folder naming rules portfoliofaq.com for complete information). If you're using any illegal characters (or extra long names or spaces) in your naming hierarchy, try renaming them.
Photoshop CS and CS2 seems to be super sensitive to bad fonts, so be sure to rule out the fonts if you are having stability issues.
Troubleshooting Photoshop won't install, from the original Adobe Install CD, try copying the 'Adobe(R) Photoshop(R) Folder' (100 to 150 MB) to the desktop - this folder contains the installer and all its files. Eject the CD, and run the installer from the desktop.
This copy-installer-folder-to-hard-drive technique works on the Adobe installers that require us to verify an original full install CD (insert the full retail install CD, when the installer asks for it point it to the CD).
For troubleshooting specific numeric Mac OS error codes, try appleerrorcodes.com.
My most decisive TroubleShooting technique — Empty = Versatile gballard.net — is to Test on an OS–Suspect Level. In less than an hour, this method effectively rules out the hardware, the install and its other third–party issues.
Ann Shelbourne offers some sage font troubleshooting advice, Ann wrote:
Have you cleaned out your AdobeFnt.lst files recently?
Do a Search for "adobefnt" and delete all that you find — except for "AdobeFnt.db".
(Don't worry, they will re-create themselves as needed).
Have you ruled out conflicts between System fonts and your other fonts? (Ann continued)
Have you ran Cocktail?:
Launch Cocktail
Choose "Pilot"
Check everything on the first dialog and set to "Automatically: Restart"
Then click Options and check everything except "Cookies"
Return to main panel and click "RUN"
It will take just a few minutes and should improve performance.
Wade Zimmerman has found a quirky FIX for Photoshop CS (8.0) not opening, crashing on launching, under Panther 10.3.2, Wade wrote:
Try changing the time zone then change it back to the correct time zone that you are in but first trash your PS Preference, if that does not work try changing the City within the time zone and then change it back. Or some kind of combination. But again, each time trash PS preferences maybe even restarting the computer.
Ann Shelbourne added, if you are in the UK, don't choose GMT but choose your nearest city by name.
This sounds goofy — but it has worked for a lot of users.

Also, Photoshop> Preferences> Memory & Image Cache:
Jeff Schewe, Adobe Photoshop expert, offers us the facts on Photoshop, Jeff writes:
Read this: Photoshop CS2-How much RAM? – Fact
http://photoshopnews.com/2005/04/04/photoshop-cs2-how-much-ram-fact/
When you get done and understand it, try reading: Memory allocation and usage (Photoshop CS2)
http://www.adobe.com/support/techdocs/320005.html/
And then read:
Improve performance in Photoshop CS2 on computers with more than 1 GB RAM
http://www.adobe.com/support/techdocs/331372.html/
My two cents on the subject:
Memory: Try setting 50 percent (no higher than 75 percent) for anything less than 2 GB RAM.
Over 2.5 giga bytes of RAM: The Mac OS limits all applications to maximum of 2 giga bytes of RAM. In other words, setting Photoshop's Memory setting to 100% will provide Photoshop with up to 2 GB memory, and leave the remaining 500 MB for the Operating System and other applications.
We do need to be careful to leave a cushion of unused RAM for whatever applications we run concurrently with Photoshop.
If we get a lot of OS 10's Spinning Beachball Color Wheel while using Photoshop, we probably need to install more RAM, or assign a lesser percentage of RAM to Photoshop. Seeing the BeachBall is normal for working on very large files (over 200 mega bytes) while Photoshop's ScratchDisks gballard.net catch up.
With over 3 giga bytes of installed RAM, I would start with a 100–percent Memory setting in Photoshop.
NOTE: Adobe is recommending the Ram/Memory issues for 2.5GB-plus work stations...if 100% Memory is not working optimally, as recommended above, try reducing down to a "safer" 75%, said Adobe's Chris Cox.
Cache Levels: Adobe is recommending setting this to 4 (for now because of an OS10.3.2/PS8.0 conflict). I generally set the Cache Level to 8 on newer machines, I recall CS2 is defaulting to 6.
Trashing Preferences:
If you're trying to rule out Photoshop corruption or reset Default settings, FIRST try trashing:
HardDrive> User> Library> Preferences> Adobe Photoshop 7.0 Settings folder.
HardDrive> User> Library> Preferences> com.adobe.Photoshop.plist file.
There are several other Photoshop preferences there you may trash.
Relaunch Photoshop.
If the problem has not cleared, Mac OS 10, Trash the following (and reinstall Photoshop):
HardDrive> Applications> Adobe Photoshop 7/CS folder.
HardDrive> User> Library> Preferences> Adobe Photoshop 7.0 Settings folder.
HardDrive> User> Library> Preferences> com.adobe.Photoshop.plist file.
Reinstall Photoshop.
Run all Photoshop Updaters adobe.com.
+++++
If the problem has not cleared after purging/reinstalling/updating Photoshop, the problem is likely outside of Photoshop in third–party, bad hardware or a corrupted install. At this point we generally need to Initialize/Erase/StartFromScratch gballard.net...a good opportunity to rethink Partitioning our disks for a Photoshop workflow gballard.net and implement a BackUp strategy gballard.net.
In severe cases — to prepare a Mac for a Apple Authorized Service Provider (AASP) — I follow my troubleshooting MELTDOWN procedure gballard.net. In addition to repairing any Bad Blocks, this procedure will be conclusive in a couple hours, plus the time it takes to ZeroWrite Write Zeros, if the problem is hardware or installed software or damaged hard drive....
+++++
BEFORE Initializing, Reformatting, Erasing:
SEARCH the Adobe Photoshop Mac Forum adobe.com , GoogleWeb.com, and GoogleGroups.com for key words for second opinions, known bugs, posted fixes, solutions and work arounds.

Photoshop wont open PNG or GIF files
i have recently encounter a problems that when i tried to opened the PNG or GIF files that i save earlier, photoshop CS3 just wont open it. It keeps giving me a messages saying "Could not complete your request because the file-format module cannot parse the file". I even reinstall the photoshop, but still receiving the same problem. If there any way i could fix it?
Thanks,I just figured out my problem with this as I was gettig the same error message. Not sure if the following information will help with other's problems or not - I am using Photoshop CS3.
First, I made sure my plug ins for png were updated. You can find the instructions for manually updating this direct from adobe site..... http://www.adobe.com/uk/support/security/bulletins/apsb07-13.html
Though my plug in for png was not updated, I realized that my mistake was rather simple. I was creating png's in photoshop by saving as, and just typing in .png after the filename instead of choosing .png from the file extension drop down. I wasn't choosng png from drop down extension list because it wasn't appearing as an option, I thought this was weird but I just typed it in myself. It seemed to save just fine, however upon trying to reopen the png file, I was getting the same error message in phtooshop as Kelly.
The solution - Photoshop does not give you the option to save a file as .png if it is in CMYK image mode. It must be in RGB, which makes sense since .png is a file format created mainly for web viewing. Once you change your image to RGB (menu option: Image/Mode/select RGB), the .png file extension will appear in the drop down and you should not get an error message when opening the file.
If you were not the creator of the .png file, then you may need to contact whomever saved this file and let them know they need to resave it as mentioned above.
hope this helps! -
Every time I open Firefox it tries to install the same updates (that I don't want) and the Firefox 3.6 "Choose Your Persona" etc. tab opens along with my home page tab. It takes a really long time to get onto Firefox because of these problems.
== This happened ==
Every time Firefox opened
== Don't rememberWell, this worked on my desktop! But my problem is on my laptop. :-) I'm running XP, but there was no "Username" under Documents and Settings under the C drive. I did a search for those file names and it wasn't there. I found Mozilla Firefox folder under: C\Documents and Settings\ All Users\Start Menu\Programs\Mozilla Firefox. There are 2 - 1 is Mozilla Firefox (shortcut) and the other is Mozilla Firefox (Safe Mode). I did a Mozilla Firefox search and this is all that showed up.
When I click on the shortcut link (the 1st one), it opens up 2 screens of Firefox. One is the "this is embarrassing" screen. The other is "Choose your Persona" screen. I closed it and reopened and it took me to my home page. -

Serial Number Works But Photoshop Wont Open
My photoshop trial endend but i saved a serial number for when it did and i put it in and it says it works but then when i press continue it says press close and reopen it and it wont open
Hi,
I am not quite able to figure what you mean when you say that you saved your serial number. Did you purchase the software from Adobe and get the serial number? In that case, you could contact adobe customer support to solve your problem. (http://www.adobe.com/support/contact/) -
