PS CS4 Extended crashes while trying to use 3D tools

I hope someone can help, I tried searching to the answer, but came out empty handed.
Okay, every time I try to use any of the 3D tools Photoshop quits "unexpectedly" and get the usual Quit/Restart pop up.
Here are my computer specs:
MacBook Pro with Mac OS X - 10.4.11 with 3gb of ram, almost 2gb allocated to scratch disk and a ATI Radeon x1600 vid card. (laptop is 3 years old now)
Does anyone know what is wrong?

Okay, back from the dead. I did a little digging around and found this on the ATI site:
"Radeon X1600’s 90-nanometer process technology and ultra-threaded architecture combine power and efficiency to optimized support for Shader Model 3.0 and deliver new high dynamic range visual effects, enhanced realism with adaptive anti-aliasing and lightening fast performance  in OpenGL and DirectX® 9 games."
So now I am stimied again. Anyone else?

  • My InDesign CS4 keeps crashing while trying to package and/or export. Please help?

    I've been trying over and over to either package or export my file, but I just see the little busy wheel and then it crashes. I haven't noticed it crashing while trying to complete any other function, just those two. Any ideas on how I can fix this? Need it fixed ASAP.

  • CS6 Photoshop crashes when trying to use type tool or opening up .psd files. Any ideas on how to fix it???

    I have Adobe CS6 Design Standard (MAC). I have had it about a year and a half and use it a ton! Just yesterday while I was using Photoshop, I clicked to use the type tool, the "initializing type tool" box popped up then a few seconds later the whole program crashed. I tried opening it back up and every time I did it just kept crashing. I restarted and shut down my computer, but still no solution. I even uninstalled the program then reinstalled. Same thing. All of my other tools work just fine (brush tool, eraser, crop, etc.). Also, when I try to open up a .psd file the program crashes as well.
    I tried searching the internet for solutions, but couldn't find much. One suggestion was to delete the Adobe Photoshop program settings file, I did that but it still didn't work. After each crash a report would be sent to Adobe, then another window would pop up saying that Adobe has found a solution for the recent crash. There is a link that says "please CLICK HERE for further details" but the link doesn't take me anywhere. It just doesn't work!
    Has anyone had this happen to them? Any ideas on how to fix it? I really need to get this up and running again!!!

    This is a user to user forum and Adobe Staff does drop by.
    First thing to try is Reset the Type Tool by right-clicking on its' icon in the Options bar.
    If you still have problems, it could be related to fonts. Here is a step by step troubleshooting help doc for that.

  • IPhoto Crashes while trying to use Photo Services

    For the past 2 days I've been trying to make a Book but after about 2-3 minutes of making it, all the while making my laptop run excruciatingly slow, iPhoto just crashes. Every single time I try the same thing happens. I gave up and tried doing a calendar with the same result. What's up?!

    How big is your HD and how much free space on it?
    Start with the troubleshooting basics:
    1. Delete the com.apple.iPhoto.plist file from the HD/Users/ Your Name / library / preferences folder. (Remember you'll need to reset your User options afterwards. These include minor settings like the window colour and so on. Note: If you've moved your library you'll need to point iPhoto at it again.)
    2. Repair Permissions using Disk Utility
    3. Create a new account (systempreferences -> accounts) and see if the problem is repeated there. If it is, then a re-install of the app might be indicated. If it's not, then it's likely the app is okay and the problem is something in the main account.

  • Illustrator CS6 crashes while trying to use effects

    If I try to apply any type of effect the program completely shuts down and I lose any work that I was working on.

    Rachel,
    It may be time for the list.
    The following is a general list of things you may try when the issue is not in a specific file, and when it is not caused by issues with opening a file from external media, see below. You may have tried/done some of them already; 1) and 2) are the easy ones for temporary strangenesses, and 3) and 4) are specifically aimed at possibly corrupt preferences); 5) is a list in itself, and 6) is the last resort.
    If possible/applicable, you should save current artwork first, of course.
    1) Close down Illy and open again;
    2) Restart the computer (you may do that up to at least 5 times);
    3) Close down Illy and press Ctrl+Alt+Shift/Cmd+Option+Shift during startup (easy but irreversible);
    4) Move the folder (follow the link with that name) with Illy closed (more tedious but also more thorough and reversible), for CS3 - CC you may find the folder here:
    https://helpx.adobe.com/illustrator/kb/preference-file-location-illustrator.html
    5) Look through and try out the relevant among the Other options (follow the link with that name, Item 7) is a list of usual suspects among other applications that may disturb and confuse Illy, Item 15) applies to CC, CS6, and maybe CS5);
    Even more seriously, you may:
    6) Uninstall (ticking the box to delete the preferences), run the Cleaner Tool (if you have CS3/CS4/CS5/CS6/CC), and reinstall.

    My photoshop CS4 keeps crashing while I am in the middle of editing a photo. I am running Mac OS X 10.9.4. I have tried to contact support and I was directed here.

    You were redirected to this user forum because CS4 is no longer supported by Adobe at all.
    We'll need a lot more info before we can help.
    You'll have to manually determine whether Photoshop CS4 is updated to version 11.0.2 (the Adobe auto updater is most unreliable in CS4), and give us plenty of other information.
    BOILERPLATE TEXT:
    If you give complete and detailed information about your setup and the issue at hand, such as your platform (Mac or Win), exact versions of your OS, of Photoshop and of Bridge, machine specs, such as total installed RAM, scratch file HDs, video card specs, what troubleshooting steps you have taken so far, what error message(s) you receive, if having issues opening raw files also the exact camera make and model that generated them, etc., someone may be able to help you.

    Hi,
    For OPTIONAL support in 11.1.0.7.0, you need the following patch
    Patch 7600122: CURLY BRACE SYNTAX,VIRTUAL MODELS, NETWORK INDEXES AND HINTO FRAMEWORK SUPPORT
    Support for SPARQL FILTERs in SEM_MATCH is not available for 11.1.0.7.0. You will need version 11.2.0.1.0 or later for FILTER support. With 11.2.0.1.0, we recommend that you apply our latest patch set:
    Patch 9819833: SEMANTIC TECHNOLOGIES 11G R2 FIX BUNDLE 2
    All of the above patches are available through My Oracle Support.

  • 64 bit CS4 Extended crashes when changing workspaces

    Everytime I try to change workspaces, PS CS4 Extended crashes. Operating system as follows: Windows 7 Ultimate, 64-bit, Intel CoreI7 3.2, 64 bit 12 gig ram, so power should not be problem. Has anyone experienced similar problems or have a clue? I am running and NVIDIA GeForce 8800 GTS with the latest driver and open GL enabled.
    Thanks,

    Do you see the same problem with OpenGL disabled?
    I ask because I've seen things work on the first run after deleting preferences, only to fail on the second and subsequent runs.  It wasn't the same issue you're seeting, but in that case a video driver update corrected it.
