Runtime error in Photoshop cs4

I have been using the Adobe Photoshop CS4 application for a while now...however...it has kind of broken on me now.
Everytime I run the application now, it gives me a runtime error.
"Runtime Error!
Program C:\Pro...
after instaling new updates from adobe flash & reader i have uninstalled everything and re installed it all and i still get the error
im runninhg windowns vista 64x

What caused the problem with the cs4 Photoshop? i don't know. all i did was install an update for abobe flash and reader and then i had a problem with Photoshop. i did uninstall Photoshop and then again reinstalled it and still did not work.so i must say the answer you gave me was not only useless but wrong too. what are runtime errors i don't know & don't care & the same with DLL's what i do care about is that the program that i have works properly
i do think the correct answer would have been try uninstalling and then reinstalling the complete CS4web software and not just the Photoshop software.
Why because that did fix the runtime error and everything works great.
Sorry, but this is a rather useless post. Runtime errors are just generic crashes, most of the time caused by some missing DLL or damaged/ bad driver. Unless you know exactly what you did and can provide more details from the crash report, this is going nowhere. Could be anything from a graphics driver problem to more genric issues...
Thanks anyway

Strange system log error from Photoshop CS4

Hi.
I keep getting this strange system log error from Photoshop CS4.
It comes after a wile when using PS CS4.
I tried to chance the memory settings and scratch disc to see if that helped. It didn't.
I also checked all my ram for anything bad. 16GB in my Mac Pro Intel OS X 10.5.6
Everything is updated to latest included Adobe apps.
This is the system log error

Program error sur photoshop cs4

could not complete your request because of a program error sur photoshop cs4 au moment de l'enregistrement

Sounds like it did not install correctly. Uninstall, then reinstall. If that does not help, use the Adobe CC cleaner. It will remove all traces of your Adobe programs. Then do a normal install. If it still is not working, let us know.

Runtime error in Dreamweaver CS4

When trying to start to work with Dreamweaver CS4 I get a runtime error
Afther building a website in in div's and css and saving it I had no problems. Afther closing the computer and starting to work the next morning I got the error. I've restarted my computer, cleaned my registry but still the error appears.
Does anyone no what to do? Please help.
It is impossible to work without Dreamweaver.

I am using Vista so file locations are different. Still, I cannot find any preferences folder or configuration folder that I can rename to recreate. There is no "CreamWeaver" folder in the user profile - even in the hidden parts.
Anyone have any other ideas?
Rename the folder to Configuration_old and launch Dreamweaver. It should create a new Configuration folder with the factory defaults.
On Vista, it's located at C:\Users\<username>\AppData\Roaming\Adobe\Dreamweaver CS4\en_US\Configuration.
It's a hidden folder, so you need to enable hidden folders in Windows Explorer.
Technote:
Try step 4 in the following technote: - corrupt cache file:
http://www.adobe.com/go/tn_19105
If that doesn't work Try #12 - deleting your personal configuration folder.
This information is also available in the Dreamweaver FAQ

Why do I keep getting a runtime error in Photoshop Elements 6.0?

I have had Photoshop Elements 6.0 for several years now with no issues at all. Recently my computer crashed and I bought a new ASUS touchscreen laptop (Q301L model). I have tried, with no luck, to get Photoshop to work. After a few actions, it will come up with a window that says "Could not complete your request because of a program error" and occasionally it will come up with a "Runtime Error!" notification that says "This application has requested the Runtime to terminate it in an unusual way. Please contact the application's support team for more information."
I have searched all the existing forums on this subject and none of the solutions presented have worked. I have tried: re-installation (5 times now), running as an administrator, deleting the MediaDatabase.db3 file, renaming the MediaDatabase.db3 file to MediaDatabase.old and allowing to rebuild, repairing with the installation disk, troubleshooting and running in compatibility mode, holding down Ctrl+Alt+Shift as Editor opens and then deleting preferences, allowing Photoshop through my firewall. I am out of ideas and I really need this program to work. Please help!

It might be a bug in the new version of Adobe Reader. http://support.microsoft.com/default.aspx?scid=kb;en-us;125749
Looking at my system, the path for AcroRd32.exe for Adobe Reader 9.1 is C:\Program Files\Adobe\Reader 9.0\Reader\AcroRd32.exe. I don't know if you mistyped your path, but you do not have \Reader\ in it. If you mouse over the file AcroRd32.exe, it should show you version 9.1.
Did you uninstall the previous version before installing the latest version? That is the recommended way to do it. I filled out my Federal Tax forms with Adobe Reader 9.1 without a problem. This is on Windows XP SP3, fully updated.

Error of Photoshop CS4 after the installation of the font.

b OS : Vista 32bit sp1
b Photoshop Version : CS4
In CS3 version, the program worked well after the addition of the font in Program Files/Common Files/Adobe/Fonts folder.
But in CS4, no fonts folder exists in Program Files/Common Files/Adobe/ folder.
So I created fonts folder and added the fonts, and then I run photoshop.
After all,
The program did not work with error I want to know how to recognize the fonts without the procedure(the installation of fonts) as CS3 version.
Please...

Thanks.
But after the deletion of files, the problem did not solve.
I deleted Adobefnt11.lst file in three folders as your advice.
C:\Users\user name\AppData\Local\Adobe\Fonts
C:\Users\user name\AppData\Local\Adobe\TypeSupport
C:\Users\user name\AppData\Local\Adobe\TypeSupport\CMaps
But after the deletion of files, the problem did not solve.
I searched Photoshop CS4 manual of Adobe.com and found that it was written that it could access if the fonts were added in Program Files/Common Files/Adobe/Font folder. However it doesn't work in mine.
Why it(errors and end of photoshop by force) happens? I don't know.
My OS system is vista. Can't be the installation of fonts(Program Files/Common Files/Adobe/Font) used in vista?

Pixel Bender Gallery Error in Photoshop CS4 Student Edition

When trying to access pixel bender filters with Photoshop CS4, filters>Pixel Bender>Pixel Bender Gallery, I get an Error dialog images as follows...
I have read the ReadMe file and have the GeForce 8500 GT Video Card on this list.
The Pixel Bender Toolkit is installed at C:\Program Files\Adobe\Adobe Utilities\Pixel Bender Toolkit c/w pbk filters that run in the toolkit.
In Photoshop there are a number of pbk filters in C:\Program Files\Adobe\Adobe Photoshop CS4\Pixel Bender Files.
The Operating system for the computer is Windows XP Professional c/w service pack 2 at least.
My question is... why am I getting this error message and how can It be fixed?

Here are two further images and an NVIDIA System Information report you asked for that I have prepared, I hope this will help.
I am aware that I could download trial versions of Photoshop CS5 and its Pixel plugin version, but first, this first image shows a message that loads from Photoshop CS4 when I start the program and has always done so from day one of owning the machine and the software, could this be of relevence to what could be the root of the issue at hand.
I also use 3D Studio Max with OpenGL and have noted rotating moving objects in 3D space of a file size of 10MB is very slow and chuggie, is this relevent, does this information give any clues.
Thankyou again for your time and effort in helping me resolve Pixel Bender Gallery Error issue.

Runtime error on Photoshop

Hi, When I open Photoshop CS4 on Windows XP using a limited account, I see the error attached. Photoshop CS4 will work normally, however if I run as administrator.

My guessing is that the problem is with Photoshop trying to access files it needs to run that cannot be accessed when using the a limited windows account. Maybe try running photoshop in capability mode? Or reinstalling CS4? That’s really my only guess of this, is that Photoshop is trying to run a file that it can’t access, have you contacted tech support or customer service or anything like that? Maybe they can help. But why are you running it in a limited account when you have access to administration account? But yea that’s all I can guess would be the problem, I hope it helps.

Runtime error with photoshop editor

C++ runtime error opening Photoshop CS3

Does anyone know how to fix this issue? We have re-imaged our school district computers with XP SP3 and IE7, and now on Creative Suite CS3, only Photoshop will not open as a student. It opens only as administrator and students get the runtime error. All other apps in the Suite work fine. They worked with the same install job before the updates, and reverting back is not an option. I have two high schools with site licenses and have to get this working by September.
Thanks!

Yes, it is installed on each pc. I create a scripted install that we push
using Altiris deployment. There is a desktop icon, but run as admin isn't
an option on the shortcut. Additionally, if it was, I don't know how I
would make it carry to all users that log on. The re-image is essentially
just updates to Windows - SP3 and IE7 specifically, and updates to flash,
shock, adobe reader, etc. We did see some issues when we 1st let IE7
install with tighter security, but this problem didn't start until the
new images rolled out. Unfortunately, I have to have the images with SP3
and IE7 in them, they'd just bog down the network running as updates
anyway. IF there is a registry key that could accomplish this, I can
script that or ask to have it put into our network policies for Active
Directory if I know which key.
I appreciate your help.
Thank you.

Runtime error sur photoshop element 11

Bonjour, j'ai acheté photoshop element 11 et l'ai installé. Après quelques jours d'utilisation, il a cessé de fonctionner et le message runtime error est apparut a l'écran. J'ai désinstallé le programme et j'ai effectué la réinstallation avec succès. Par la suite encore après quelques jours, le même problème et message de Runtime error est réapparut...Sur les liens j'ai trouvé les recommandations d'un expert d'Adobe qui disait de modifier le fichier Mediadatabase.db3 par mediadatabase.old sauf que je ne trouve pas ce dit fichier...
Pourriez vous me donner la cause et la solution a ce problème une fois pour toute ?? Merci de l'attention

Les systèmes d'exploitation modernes le stockent comme un fichier masqué spécial dans le système de fichier.

Program error message - Photoshop CS4 for Mac

I started to get the message "Could not complete your request because of a program error" a little while back, but it would go away after restarting photoshop, so I wasn't too worried about it. But now I've encountered this one file that won't let me do anything to it. As soon as I open it it pops up with the error message. No amount of clicking makes it go away, and I have to force quit photoshop. Always the same thing. I read up a little about how to fix it but I haven't found anything that works (I tried the file info>copyright idea and deleting Photoshop's preferences, even getting rid of extra fonts, and clearing the library>cache.) Any ideas? I'm not sure what to do!
More info:
It's a psd file.
There are only 2 layers on the files, one is a vector smart image.
I opened the file and was able to edit it fine on a friend's computer, no error messages whatsoever - so it's not a corrupt file. (But that doesn't solve my computer's dilemma.)
Thanks in advance.

Hi,
I have this same problem. I use Font Agent Pro and I only have about 50-ish foundry fonts activated. I'm wondering if anyone else has found a fix? The second I open Photoshop I get an error message and I have to force quit, let's not even begin thinking about opening a file.
I'm on OSX 10.6.8, running CS4. This is getting frustrating. I'm considering reinstalling the whole suite, there goes my entire evening.

I'm getting an error starting Photoshop CS4. Error number 148.3 Licensing for this product has stopped working. I rebooted several times to no avail. Still get the same error message everytime I try to start Photoshop. I'm using Windows 7 -- 64 bit

If you can not use CS4 menu Help>Activate|Deactivate to get the install working again you may need to re-install CS4.
