I've got the exact same problem:
Trying to open the Pixel Bender Toolkit, it immediately closes after initiation. No message whatsoever.
I hadn't used the plug-in for a while, I have changed my graphic card to an unsupported NVidia card. But the Pixel Bender filters do open in Photoshop CS5(12.0 64-bit), although new filter don't seem to show up (but that might be a different issue)

Pixel Bender authoring tools

I have a few questions about the Pixel Bender authoring tools
when Pixel Bender is officially released. I hope someone can answer
these for me or point me towards the answers.
1) Will the Pixel Bender Toolkit be freely available? If not,
will it become a part of Flash CS4, After Effects CS4 and Flex
Builder 3.2?
2) Will the command line compiler be freely available, along
with a language specification?
3) Is the Pixel Bender format open, so that we can expect
third-party development tools? [The answer seems at least partially
yes, since Conduit for Pixel Bender has made its appearance]
To clarify where I'm coming from: I own Photoshop CS4 and
Flex Builder 3 and I'm looking forward to create Photoshop plug-ins
using Pixel Bender. It would make for some nice speed gains,
cross-platform compatibility and a lot less hassle than the PS SDK,
for those plug-ins that don't require the SDK functionality. I have
no need for Flash, so it would be a shame if I had to buy it to
generate Pixel Bender bytecode.
Thanks!
Simon

Kevin, thank you for answering. My major concern was that in
order to write pieces of code for one of the Adobe programs, people
would need to buy another (expensive) program, such as Flash. I'm
happy that's not the case.
As to my point (3), I understand the decision to keep the
run-time Adobe-only (for now) and by 'open' I was indeed referring
mostly to authoring tools.
Thanks again!
Simon
Oh, I'm not sure whether this is the correct place, but let
me sneak in a feature request in relation to Photoshop: it would be
really great if the Pixel Bender plug-ins for Photoshop would get
the option to be supplied with color data in a standard color
space, such as RIMM RGB (used in ACR/Lightroom). That way, the
plug-ins would effectively be color managed, without the hassle of
performing color transformations inside the kernel.

Problem Opening Pixel Bender Filter

I just recently downloaded this Pixel Bender Filter for Photoshop CS4 (Win 32-bit). I downloaded it and finished installing with the adobe extension manager. However when I tried to use the pixel bender filter, photoshop becomes non responding and says: Adobe Photoshop CS4 has encountered a problem and needs to close. We are sorry for the inconvenience. Does anyone know why this is happening? Looks like a sick filter and I wanna use it!
Thanks

I believe your card is a shader model 2 card, we require a minimum of shader model 3, so the Pixel Bender plugin should warn you up front that your graphics hardware is not supported. I'm not sure why the plugin is not doing so but I do not expect Pixel Bender to work on your hardware. Sorry.

Pixel Bender will not open in PS CS5 (not enough RAM)

I get the following message when I try to open Pixel Bender in Photoshop CS5:
Could not complete the Pixel Bender Gallery command because there is not enough memory (RAM).
I have 4GB RAM on a Mac Mini 2gHz Core Duo, and I have never had another plug in fail to load. Requirements are supposed to be the same as CS5.
Any suggestions?

Thanks for your response.
Photoshop is running in 32-bit mode, as most of my plug ins are not yet 64 bit.
This error dialog appears before the gallery opens.
All my images are under 4096 px wide. I tried using a much smaller image. Same message.
I tried increasing the available memory in preferences. Same message.
I tried lowering the available memory in preferences. Same message.
My Mac Mini has an NVidia 9500M, which is listed as one of the cards that support GPU processing for Pixel Bender. Memory is shared with the CPU, but that should not be relevant - many others would have had my complaint if that mattered.

ITunes wont open after re-instaling win xp..

i just re-installed xp and itunes wont open now, shows this--iTunes has encountered a problem and needs to close. We are sorry for the inconvenience.
i tried removing quicktime and itunes and tried re-installing too...but wont help...
i downloaded the old ver 9.2.1.5 but it still wont work....
Pls help....
AppName: itunes.exe AppVer: 9.2.1.5 ModName: unknown
ModVer: 0.0.0.0 Offset: 6975515c

I have wasted hours on this for the past few days, and this is what finally worked. I uninstalled both itunes and quicktime. I then reintalled itunes and quicktime, then uninstalled quicktime only. I then reinstalled quicktime standalone. For some reason it now works. I have no idea why this worked, but there had to be something strange going on with quicktime. I would try this before I got into the system and started deleting files, and turning things off. At one point I couldn't even restart my computer.....so don't go there. I am not happy that Apple does not come forward with more help, this is a real mess.

Pixel Bender does not show in filters after installation but shows in extension mgr as plugin

I installed pixel bender (64bit) into my CS5 extended group through the extension manager as administrator as per directions for win 7. All went well and I restarted both PS5 and the computer. I do not have any pixel bender option under filters or anywhere else I can find. Did I do something wrong? I will uninstall it and try again, but right now, it's not looking good.

Ok... here's the deal. I installed the CS5 Master Collection on my computer. It installed a 32 and a 64 bit version of PS5 on my Win 7 64bit system. I thought that may have been because I downloaded a trial version (possibly 32 bit?) from the web before I got my full version in the mail. I uninstalled it and did a clean install with the disc a second time thinking that the earlier trial version had created some kind of protocol. When I reinstalled the PS5 64 bit from the disc it AGAIN installed both versions but the only one that will open is the 32 bit. So, I downloaded the 32 bit version of Pixel Bender and reinstalled (as administrator) the plug in (or extension) from the Extension Manager. It is there now although I have not tried it. At least it shows. I still don't know why I am working in the 32 bit version??? Anyone know?

Pixel Bender is NOT installing Please help!

I have The Creative Suite Version 5.5, which includes Photoshop CS 5.1. I'm trying to install the Pixel Bender Plugin for Photoshop CS5.1. I run at x64 bit and I'm attempting to install the correct plugin version. However, when I double click on the MXP file it opens up Adobe Extensions Manager 5.5 and goes through the process to install the plugin, when finished, the plugin isn't listed on the Extensions Manager. I don't get a error or any kind. The plugin simply doesn't show up. I have restarted my computer, downloaded the latest version of Adobe Air and Flash Player. I have repaired permissions on my computer. I'm really at a loss here. Can anyone help? Oh and I'm Running a Mac with Lion. Thank you in advance.

I spent all day yesterday trying to install PB into my PS5, and it will not work. Then I got smart and started to search the forums, and it has been DISCONTINUED! This means that you cannot get it to work.
Though I did see someone say that you can get PB into PS3. Which I still have, so we are awaiting to see if anyone on those forums has any info on that.
Oil Paint, which is the one filter in PB that we all want, has been put into PS6 as an included filter. But we are awaiting some of our classmates who have already updated to PS6, to tell us if they like it. I wont upgrade to the new version yet.
I realize that this forum has not been added to for a year, but hope my answer helps those of us who are really interested in Oil Paint.

Itunes wont open and when re-installed received this msg: Service Apple mob device failed to start. You have insufficent privileges to start system svc. Help?

Itunes wont open and when re-installed received this msg: Service Apple mob device failed to start. You have insufficent privileges to start system svc. Help?

Download Itunes from Apple.com, not from within Itunes.
Redo the install, following the below procedure. However, when you re-install Itunes, right click and run the install as administrator. For Win 7, you have to hold down the cntrl and shift keys when you right click and then "run as administrator" will be an option.
Go to Control Panel > Add or Remove Programs (Win XP) or Programs and Features (Vista, Win 7 & later)
Remove all of these items in the following order:
iTunes
Apple Software Update
Apple Mobile Device Support (if this won't uninstall move on to the next item)
Bonjour
Apple Application Support
Reboot, download iTunes, then reinstall, either using an account with administrative rights, or right-clicking the downloaded installer and selecting Run as Administrator.
The uninstall and reinstall process will preserve your iTunes library and settings, but ideally you would back up the library and your other important personal documents and data on a regular basis. See this user tip for a suggested technique.
Please note:
Some users may need to follow all the steps in whichever of the following support documents applies to their system. These include some additional manual file and folder deletions not mentioned above.

Awesomeness!
Search your hard drive for a file containing ITL in it. That is the file extension for the itunes database file. You might need to set Win Explorer options to show NOT hide file extensions.
Once you are sure you know where that file is, press AND HOLD the shift key while starting itunes. Keep holding the shift key until you see a question about choosing or creating a library. Choose the ITL file you found during your search.
Is this on a Vaio?

Photoshop wont open!

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 CS5 on a Mac, unable to load Pixel Bender (extension manager failing as well??) can

Downloaded correct version of Pixel Bender, installed it, tried to open Extension Manager which opens but no programs or files listed, nothing available, install button / choice greyed out, unable to do anything but click to open sales page (aka Exchange). Downloaded/reinstalled Extension manager, still blank options, nothing happens when I CMD-O now what?

Thanks. That worked. I had not gone to the .exe part of the file to apply the "run as administrator".
