Program Error Dialog box won't go away!

Recently when I open almost any photoshop file, I get a dialog box that reads "Could not complete your request because of a program error"...when I click "ok" nothing happens, the dialog box remains and I can't do anything but force quit photoshop.  This has started happening out of nowhere.  Any ideas?

Can you raise the Preferences dialog with command-K and cancel that? (Probably not, but under some circumstances this may help with unresponsive dialog.)

As with all unexplainable Photoshop-problems you might try trashing the prefs (after making sure all customized presets like Actions, Patterns, Brushes etc. have been saved and making a note of the Preferences you’ve changed) by pressing command-alt-shift on starting the program or starting from a new user-account.
System Maintenance (repairing permissions, purging PRAM, running cron-scripts, cleaning caches, etc.) might also be beneficial, Onyx has been recommended for such tasks.

Weeding out bad fonts never seems to be a bad idea, either. (Validate your fonts in Font Book and remove the bad ones.)
If 3rd party plug-ins are installed try disabling them to verify if one of those may be responsible for the problem.

  • Help Product Improvement Program dialog box won't go away

    When I re-opened the beta version of Fireworks CS4 last
    night, there was a dialog box asking me whether or not I wanted to
    participate in helping Adobe with product enhancement by submitting
    information on my usage of Fireworks, but the bloody thing will not
    close. There's options to select yes, no and a few other things,
    but whenever I select anything it won't go away. Does anyone else
    have this problem? And if so, is Adobe aware of it?

    Yes, this problem has been reported already in the CS4 Beta
    forum.
    Reading
    that topic, it appears that only Mac users reported the error
    so far, and the only way out was to quit and restart Fireworks. I
    think it would be a good idea to post your case there too.

  • Upload Dialog Box Won't Go Away When Uploading Larger Files

    I'm uploading a 200 MB Excel file to Power BI and the upload dialog box never goes away, even after the upload is completed. I verified this by checking network activity from Internet Explorer and additionally by opening a new Power BI window and verifying
    that the file load took place. I think this is a bug.

    Guy, what are the next steps? Should Joey file a bug on Connect?
    Thanks!

  • MiniStore dialog box won't go away

    I want to get rid of the MiniStore dialog box, because it needlessly takes up space in my iTunes window. The Apple article says, "The first time you launch iTunes 6.0.2 the MiniStore displays a dialog box that explains the MiniStore and asks you if you would like to turn it on." I assumed that meant only the first time, but in fact the dialog box is there when I relaunch. So far, the only way I've found to get rid of it is disabling the Music Store under Parental Controls, but then I'll have to change my preferences every time I want to use the Music Store. Have any of you found a way to get rid of that dialog box?
    Thanks in advance for your help.
    Cheers,

  • "Document Error" message box won't go away

    I recently started having problems with the 2013 Pages upgrade on my Macbook Pro running Maverick. I still have and use Pages '09 because I simply can't do everything on the new upgrade, but when I do open up the new Pages, even with no document open, I get a small gray window in the upper left hand section of the screen with the "do not warn me again" square checked off. Nothing that I do makes it go away. When I open a document, that gray window just sits on top not doing anything. It won't let me move it or close or Esc out.
    I've tried uninstalling the new Pages and 'upgrading' again, but no change.
    Does anyone have any idea how to fix this?!
    Thanks!

  • Can't get rid of start-up error dialog box- "Failed to connect to device"

    when I start-up or restart there is an error dialog box
    icon of a camera,
    tells me to check cables, turn off device etc, but there is no device, and I've restarted with no cables attached, other than mouse and keyboard.
    the error code is
    [MTW005]
    there is an "OK" button, but it won't do anything and I just have to drag the dialog box over to the side of the screen and work around it....
    any suggestions?
    thanks

    Hi Rick and Welcome to Apple Discussions!
    Look in System Preferences/Accounts/Login Items and see if Image Capture is listed. If so, Delete or Hide it.

  • Make Custom (Run-Time Error Dialog Box)

    I  would like to Customize the  Run-Time Error Dialog Box   
    bcos I want to use  H/Wbuttons (need to Init  the H/W) & not mouse to navigate thr the box 
    is the  Dialog box available in Labview also

    Hello aparab,
    You won't be able to edit the dialog in LabVIEW for sure. Not sure if NI provide CVI / C++ source for that.
    You can have your own dialog by handling the run-time error using SequenceFilePostStepRuntimeError callback. Look at this example:
    http://zone.ni.com/reference/en-XX/help/370052M-01​/tsexamples/infotopics/callbacks_sequencefileposts​...
    The example ships with TestStand as mentioned in the above link. You just have to use the information which will be in Parameters.Step container for error details and to customise your dialog.

  • How can I disable "download error" dialog box when saving a complete web page?

    Sometimes, when I try to save a web page as type: "Web Page, complete", firefox displays download error dialog box stating a file "could not be saved, because the source file could not be read."
    I don't have a problem with firefox couldn't save that file, but I have a problem with firefox displaying that dialog box, because I have to click OK everytime.
    Is there a way to disable that annoying dialog box?

    I modified the host file mainly to block ads. But that's not the problem. It's OK for me for firefox to not saving some parts of a page (ads usually within a frame). It's my intention to NOT saving those files. I just want to save the main content of a webpage.
    But I'm having a problem with firefox displaying the dialog boxes.

  • Illustrator cc2014 open dialog box won't work yosemite

    I have a Macbook Pro Retina 2014 with a fresh install of Yosemite and Creative Cloud, after a while, when I used the open dialog box for 4 or 5 times to open documents, that dialog box won't work anymore, I have to quit and reopen the Illustrator application, the shortcut won't work either. Is anybody got that problem before?
    When I was on Mountain Lion, I never got this problem, I presume it's related to Yosemite.

    Gelouis,
    I believe it is a bug in CC2014, appearing when you have the Illustrator open/place dialogue set to column view and sort by date or sort by kind. You may change it to view by name or list view.

    Or you may get it right by changing the sort to something else.

  • Print Dialog Box won't Open

    My husband has an Intel Mac Mini that has issues. He can't open the print dialog box from any application--Mail, Firefox, Quickbooks, Word, etc. He can't print anything at all because the dialog box won't open when selecting <file> and <print> or clicking the print icon if there is one in that application. I deleted the printers and reinstalled the drivers...nothing. I upgraded from OS 10.7 to 10.8...again nothing. I zapped the pram...still nothing. I've been using Macs for 15 years and this issue has got me stumped. Any suggestions?

    I was unable to find the SavedData file.  I am running Windows 7 and there seems to be two files there /Roaming/Adobe/InDesign and /Roaming/Adobe/AdobeInDesing5.5 and neither one has a clear file name "InDesign SavedData" for me to remove.  I think I found the "InDesign Debaults" under the /Roaming/Adobe/InDesign/version7.5/en_US/InDesignDefaults.  Is that one it?

  • CS6 Photoshop: One newly-created PSD filewon't print because the print dialog box won't appear altho the file properties appear to be the same as other files that do print.

    CS6 Photoshop: One newly-created PSD file won't print because the print dialog box won't appear after selecting File > Print.  Then "Print" becomes grayed out. The file properties such as permissions, are the same as other PSD files that do print.  This file also cannot be converted to Adobe PDF, which is not offered as choice under "Save as", whereas other can be.  I've exited, reopened Photoshop, restarted computer, checked out other CS6 PSD files which do print, nothing changes.  The 52 MB file has been flattened. OS is Windows 7.  Thanks for any suggestions.

    Sounds like the printer driver is having some problems.
    Try holding the space bar down when you select Print (which makes the print dialog NOT load previously used settings).

  • Select Imamge source dialog box won't show up, how to repair it?

    My CS4 is doing very strange now, a lot of function is missing, the Select Image Source dialog box won't show up, the blue bar on top of menu bar won't show. Seems a lot of functions are disabled, is there a way to bring it back to normal?

    If the Select Image Source dialog box doesn't appear, it sounds as though you have accidentally changed Dreamweaver Preferences.
    Open the Preferences panel from the Edit menu (Windows) or the Dreamweaver menu (Mac).
    Select the General category from the list on the left.
    Make sure the "Show dialog when inserting objects" check box is selected.
    If the blue bar on the top of a Spry menu doesn't display, in the View menu select the Visual Aids submenu, and make sure there is a check mark alongside Invisible Elements (clicking it toggles the option on and off).
    If other settings have gone wrong, it's a good idea to delete your personal configuration folder. There are instructions on how to find it in the link supplied by Jon in the previous post.

  • Keychain password dialog box won't quit

    Every time I open my computer, I receive dialog boxes asking me to enter my keychain password for various programs. Some of them say they need access to "Local Items" and are asking for the password to that. I type in my computer password, and it rejects the password as incorrect. I also try to close the box or click the "?," but it won't let me do this. I've went in and repaired my Keychain under First Aid to no avail. I took it to an IT department who cleared out my stored passwords in Keychain, but that hasn't stopped the problem either. Sometimes I can get them to go away temporarily, but it never lasts long. Any suggestions?

    Hello birdie.ks,
