PS CC 2014 can't start on Mac OSX "Unable to initialize Photoshop due to a Program error"

I just downloaded and installed Adobe Creative Cloud including Photoshop CC 2014 and Lightroom on an iMac and a Macbook, both with OS OS X 10.10 (14A389).
On both Macbook and iMac i get the same error when I try to start PS CC 2014: "kon photoshop niet initialiseren vanwege een programmafout". Or in English: "Unable to initialize Photoshop due to a Program error".
In PSErrorLog.txt (~/Library/Preferences/Photoshop CC 2014 Settings/PSErrorLog.txt) I see:
2015:01:24 13:57:05 : /Volumes/workarea/PS_15_Mac_Daily_Retail/20141204.r.310/photoshop/main/photoshop/sources/ UColorState.cpp : 737 : REQUIRE failed
I uninstalled and reinstalled: doesn't help
The use of Cleaner Tools didn't solve the problem
How can I get PS CC 2014 up and running ??

On another simular question was the answer:
Either your default color settings files are corrupted, or they are missing (they're in the system application support folder).
Uninstalling and reinstalling should put the default files back in place.
Those files are missing. Uninstalling and reinstalling doesn't put hem back in place.

  • Can not open photshop CC 2014     ERROR  could not initialize Photoshop because of a program error

    Hi
    I can not open Photshop CC 2014
    ERROR
    could not initialize Photoshop because of a program error

    I've had the same error happen to me.  I deleted the preferences file, updated JAVA, etc.  none of which worked.
    I've spent days systematically working to isolate the variable that seems to make Photoshop work one day and "not initialize" the next.  I simply can't afford to stop work when Photoshop doesn't want to initialize due to: PSOWLListenerProxyBaseCocoa.mm : 52 : REQUIRE failed
    Apologies, but I REQUIRE YOU TO INITIALIZE!
    I think that I've isolated the problem.  I have a dual monitor set-up.  Sometimes I use the second monitor and sometimes I don't, sometimes monitor 2 is powered on and sometimes it's not.  It's really the only thing with any variance on my system.  I disconnected my second monitor.  Then I clicked the Photoshop icon and the program opened...
    I am running OS X 10.9 and Photoshop CS 5.1
    There appears to be a link between Photoshop not wanting to initialize and Graphics Card / Monitors. 

  • Could not initialize Photoshop because of a program error" with PS CC 2014

    I get "Could not initialize Photoshop because of a program error" with PS CC 2014 on a 2099 Macbook Pro running Mavericks. Then the program closes. Can anyone help?

    Could be corrupt preferences, a problem with the OS font cache, or some other problem with the OS.
    First, try resetting the preferences.

  • CS 5.1 Mac....  Could not initialize Photoshop because of a program error.

    CS 5.1 Mac....  'Could not initialize Photoshop because of a program error.'
    I changed my security preferences and still get the same thing poping up.  I am not able to open PS CS5.1 on my mac.
    What should I do or even where do I go if I need to re-install CS 5.1? I have my Lic#
    MikeNewsome.com

    I don't think the application installation would be corrupt because I uninstalled and re-installed according to adobe and all the times I did so, it was from adobe website.  and I am thinking about the OS, if that were corrupt, a lot more applications, ... would be giving me problems.
    It is only PS. I am almost at wit's end trying to solve this issue. I would have thought re-insatlling program (prob did this about 10 times), would solve any issues.  I did use the cc cleaner but only yesterday as a last resort. I just don't know where to go with this problem.
    when 1st happened I just uninstalled and reinstalled a few times and when that didn't solve anything, also then ran utility programs a few times.all the while deleted prefs

  • Can't open Photoshop CC.  "could not initialize photoshop because of a program error"

    What's the latest fix-it for this.  Many of you have the same issue but there are so many different answers.  Confusing (especially since I am a novice at this).

    Do you receive a download or update errors... or does the program install but then will not run?

  • I can't Start, Uninstall or Install new iTunes. I'm getting the same error message: Window Installer Service could not be accessed.  No other programs have similar problem. Any suggestion what can be done?

    I can't Start, Uninstall of Install new iTunes. I'm getting the same error message: "Window Installer Service could not be accessed". No other programs having similar problem. Any suggestions how to fix it?

    For general advice see Troubleshooting issues with iTunes for Windows updates.
    The steps in the second box are a guide to removing everything related to iTunes and then rebuilding it which is often a good starting point unless the symptoms indicate a more specific approach. Review the other boxes and the list of support documents further down the page in case one of them applies.
    The further information area has direct links to the current and recent builds in case you have problems downloading, need to revert to an older version or want to try the iTunes for Windows (64-bit - for older video cards) (not for XP) release as a workaround for installation or performance issues, or compatibility with QuickTime or third party software.
    Your library should be unaffected by these steps but there are also links to backup and recovery advice should it be needed.

    If you have a Mid 2010 model: Computers that can be upgraded to use OS X Internet Recovery. If later then see below:
    Install Mavericks, Lion/Mountain Lion Using Internet Recovery
    Be sure you backup your files to an external drive or second internal drive because the following procedure will remove everything from the hard drive.
    Boot to the Internet Recovery HD:
    Restart the computer and after the chime press and hold down the COMMAND-OPTION- R keys until a globe appears on the screen. Wait patiently - 15-20 minutes - until the Recovery main menu appears.
    Partition and Format the hard drive:
    Select Disk Utility from the main menu and click on the Continue button.
    After DU loads select your newly installed hard drive (this is the entry with the mfgr.'s ID and size) from the left side list. Click on the Partition tab in the DU main window.
    Under the Volume Scheme heading set the number of partitions from the drop down menu to one. Click on the Options button, set the partition scheme to GUID then click on the OK button. Set the format type to Mac OS Extended (Journaled.) Click on the Partition button and wait until the process has completed. Quit DU and return to the main menu.
    Reinstall Lion/Mountain Lion. Mavericks: Select Reinstall Lion/Mountain Lion, Mavericks and click on the Install button. Be sure to select the correct drive to use if you have more than one.
    Note: You will need an active Internet connection. I suggest using Ethernet if possible because it is three times faster than wireless.
    If you have an earlier model:
    Clean Install of Snow Leopard
         1. Boot the computer using the Snow Leopard Installer Disc or the Disc 1 that came
             with your computer.  Insert the disc into the optical drive and restart the computer.
             After the chime press and hold down the  "C" key.  Release the key when you see
             a small spinning gear appear below the dark gray Apple logo.
         2. After the installer loads select your language and click on the Continue
             button. When the menu bar appears select Disk Utility from the Utilities menu.
             After DU loads select the hard drive entry from the left side list (mfgr.'s ID and drive
             size.)  Click on the Partition tab in the DU main window.  Set the number of
             partitions to one (1) from the Partitions drop down menu, click on Options button
             and select GUID, click on OK, then set the format type to MacOS Extended
             (Journaled, if supported), then click on the Apply button.
         3. When the formatting has completed quit DU and return to the installer.  Proceed
             with the OS X installation and follow the directions included with the installer.
         4. When the installation has completed your computer will Restart into the Setup
             Assistant. Be sure you configure your initial admin account with the exact same
             username and password that you used on your old drive. After you finish Setup
             Assistant will complete the installation after which you will be running a fresh
             install of OS X.  You can now begin the update process by opening Software
             Update and installing all recommended updates to bring your installation current.
    Download and install Mac OS X 10.6.8 Update Combo v1.1.

    Attempting to update itunes, received system error" Program can't start because MSVCR80.dll is missing from computer, try reinstalling the program to fix the problem. Question, I can't access Itunes to backup library, how do I reinstall without loosing music library?

    It doesn't matter and doing a manual install will not fix the problem either.  I'm looking for a solution but no luck yet.  I think Apple has given us a bad update.

  • Can I upgrade from mac OSX 10.6.8 to 10.8?

    Can I upgrade from mac OSX 10.6.8 to 10.8?

    Same list as stedman1, but uses model numbers which is slightly more accurate.
    Check that your computer is compatible with Mountain Lion.
    To check the model number hold down the option/alt key, go to the Apple menu and select System Information.
    iMac (Mid 2007 or newer) model number 7,1 or higher
    MacBook (Late 2008 Aluminum, or Early 2009 or newer) model number 5,1 or higher
    MacBook Pro (Mid/Late 2007 or newer) model number 3,1 or higher
    MacBook Air (Late 2008 or newer) model number 2,1 or higher
    Mac mini (Early 2009 or newer) model number 3,1 or higher
    Mac Pro (Early 2008 or newer) model number 3,1 or higher
    Xserve (Early 2009) model number 3,1 or higher
    Your Mac needs:
    OS X v10.6.8 or OS X Lion already installed
    2 GB or more of memory (More is better)
    8 GB or more of available space
    Check to make sure your applications are compatible.         Application Compatibility
    If you have applications that you want to use that aren’t compatible, you can retain Snow Leopard and create a new partition to install Mountain Lion on or you can run Snow Leopard  server in a virtual mode.
    If your computer isn't compatible, you might be able to upgrade to Lion.        Computer Compatibility - Lion
    If you can/do upgrade, I recommend you make a copy of the installer and move it out of your Applications folder. The installer self-destructs. The copy will keep you from having to download the installer again.

    Get more information about your computer. Go to the Apple in the upper left corner of any window, then "About This Mac", then "More Info..."  Copy and paste the information here, but omit the serial number and Hardware UUID (if present).
    If it's an Intel iMac then yes.
