Why won't my Photoshop CS6 Open.

I've been on other forums looking to solve this problem and they're solutions have not worked for me. I've opened it from almost every destination I can think of as well as forcing it to open and running it as an Administrator. I would like a solution to my problem as soon as possible.

Why doesn't my Photoshop CS6 open a new document?

My new photoshop CS6 will not open a new document, nor will it open a photograph. I re-installed the program but that did not help. I reset the preferences but that didn't help either. Any ideas?

Hello,
I found the fix. First of all, my Photoshop CS2 would open OK, but when I
wanted to make a new document, chose the size and clicked OK, nothing
happened. Then I would try and open a picture. I would go to File/Open, go
to my folder, click on a picture to open, and nothing would happen. Another
problem I had was with In-Design. When working on a page, I would make a
text box and insert text, but I could not move that text box. I could drag
the handles and reposition it that way, but I could not move the box to
place it where I wanted it easily. Also I could not move picture boxes. I
found a fix: Hit the ESC (escape key). That fixed everything in Photoshop
and In-Design. So unless there's way I can permanently fix this problem,
when it does it again I'll simply hit the esc key. Please let me know if
there is a permanent fix for this. Is it a problem with the brand new
computer I bought last week?

Why won't my photoshop elements open?

I used my photoshop elements the other day without any problem. But now it won't open. I try clicking on the icon & nothing happens. Any clue? Everything else on my computer is running fine so I really think it's an issue with the program. Mahalo!

Hi,
Which version of Photoshop Elements are you trying to use?
Which operating system are you running on?

Why won't my Adobe Bridge open?

Why won't my Adobe Bridge Open? I keep getting an error message. I first installed the free trial of Illustrator CS 6, but a few days ago joined the creative cloud. I would just uninstall & reinstall Bridge, but its not in the list of apps to install. Since joining the cloud I have also installed photoshop & indesign. Doesn't Adobe have chat support? I used in when first signing up for Cloud. Now I can't find it.
Thanks!

Hi Trisher83,
Bridge gets installed along with other programs (like Illustrator or Photohop) so it might require uninstalling all CS6 products to be able to reinstall it.
I would uninstall all CS6 products and then reinstall one which includes Bridge from a new user account and test to see if you still get the error.

Why won't my photoshop Elements 10 load?

Why won't my photoshop elements 10 load?

Hi Brian,
Continuing this saga:
What does it mean to uninstall & reinstall PSE 10?
I did that, renaming SLStores not a fix, Disappointed (not shocked) at result:
Editor still hangs on loading, just as before. But real mystery is that it lauches directly into Organizer. No welcome screen. This was setting I had changed in attempted fix, trying to maybe get to Editor via Organizer. Obviously not what program is supposed to do out-of-box, nor what it does on my xp laptop.
Some file or files not deleted in uninstall were used at launch. It is not the setting or pref going straight to Org that is the problem. That was created as attempted solution.
But this shows the persistence of mystery file(s) that ARE probably the cause. What & where are they?
-- Is there a way to find the files used when launch attempted? Event viewer doesn't afaik.I know how to find "modified", but not same oc.
-- Application Data & Local Application Data have Adobe folders, some specific to Elements. I should have deleted these in uninstall, have since deleted obvious ones. I may delete everyting Adobe.
-- I would try install on my D drive but often programs wont work from there, and bad file on C might still get in the way. Any thoughts?
Your persistence is welcome!

Why won't some pdf-files open on tablet/phone?

I simply get the error saying: The document cannot be opened because it's not a valid pdf-document.
However I have no problems opening the file with my laptop, only my phone and tablet (Jellybean 4.2.2) won't open it.
My friends also have managed to open the file on their tablets (android/windows).
Have reinstalled and checked updates and tried other programs but none has worked for me.
I simply have no clue and would appreciate help.

Hey,
Seems like the problem was in the web browser I was using, as the file just
didn't download correctly.
Thanks for the help anyway, much appreciated.

Hey,
spent some time discussing this with some friends of mine and found out
that the document can be opened by downloading it to the computer and
transferring then to the tablet or phone. The difference is that when
downloading with tablet/phone I get a .pdf file, which only has some html
code. So I guess the problem has something to do with the encryption of the
file. Here are the 2 different files I get as attachments. After all this
might not have anything to do with adobe, but some other stuff I don't
really understand.

FAQ: Will Photoshop work with my camera, or Why won't my raw files open?

What is a raw file?
A raw file is the unprocessed light data that was captured by your camera sensor. The only settings on your camera that apply to this file are aperture, shutter speed, and ISO. This means that any settings you may have applied to the file, such as white balance, or black and white effects, have no effect. Because this sensor data is raw, it must be processed or baked into an actual image file, that's where the Adobe Camera Raw (ACR) plug-in comes in.
What is Adobe Camera Raw?
ACR interprets the raw data and makes image information out of it. But every camera has a unique sensor and thus has a unique form of raw file. Even though camera manufactures may use the same file extension each time (e.g. Nikon raw files are always .NEF), each camera model has a different way of storing information. Because of this, we must continually update ACR for new cameras. As we add new cameras to the list (over 300 now) we update our published list of supported cameras. Additionally, with the changes to ACR, newer releases will not always be compatible with older versions of Photoshop.
So, will the my raw files work with Photoshop?
So if you are wondering if your camera is supported by ACR or will work in Photoshop, first check this list:
Camera Raw plug-in | Supported cameras
Once you know whether your camera is supported by ACR and by which version, check this list to see whether your version of Photoshop supports that version of ACR or later:
Camera Raw-compatible Adobe applications
If your version of Photoshop should open raw files from your camera, make sure you have the latest version of ACR installed. Go to Help > Updates to install the latest ACR release.
You can also manually download and install ACR updates:
Macintosh
Windows
Additional resources
If you are still having trouble with your raw files, check these:

Why cant photoshop cs6 open .3ds files?

I recently downloaded 3ds max and blender and i exported the 3d models into .3ds files but Photoshop cs6 says" could not complete your request because it is not the right kind of document". Am i doing something wrong? Because im watching video san dnobody has a problem with this. Help me!

The 3D feature is working if you have a 3D menu in CS6 extended and you can create 3D layers.

Photoshop CS6 opens quickly- must wait 2-3 minutes to use program.

Greetings. New to the forum. I've found several references to my problem online, but none of the suggestions seems to work. I have a brand new iMac running 10.9.4 Mavericks. It has a 2.7 GHz Intel Core i5 processor and 16 GB of RAM. I also have the 1TB Fusion Hard Drive.
When I open Photoshop it snaps open almost immediately. If I click on a photo file and "open with" Photo shop, photoshop snaps open almost immediately and the photo opens about as quickly. BUT... then I get the spinning beach ball for anywhere from 2-3 minutes before I can actually use the program. Before I updated CS6 today, Photoshop would open and hang for 2-4 minutes on the "measuring memory" message. Sometimes it would open, sometimes it would not open. I just got CS6 today- and yes, it's a legal copy with valid serial number purchased from the university.
I've tried a few other programs in the suite (Premiere, Encore, Illustrator...and gave up waiting for them to load. I've tried changing the performance settings in Photoshop. I've deleted bad fonts. I unchecked the "use graphics processor." I've made sure that Photoshop can get through the iMac firewall.
Once the program finally loads, I can work with it and it seems "normal." Ive have CS6 on my work iMac and it is very fast- but that machine is running Mountain Lion.
Any suggestions would be appreciated.

Why won't movie trailer files open in Quicktime

Each time I try to open a movie trailer file in my Quick time pro I see a down load window with a small X box at the top left hand of the window.
Why won't these files open. When I go to the same files in Itune Store I have no difficulty downloading and playing

I had a similar problem a few weeks ago, but nobody gave me a reply. I don't know if it helps in your case, but I eventually found out it was my firewall blocking the download.
I could view SD trailers but not the HD ones for some reason.

Photoshop cs6 opens on Photoshop extended windows. Impossible to open standalone program. I never suscribed to extended,. Photoshop extendes doesn't appear in my programs list.

I have used Photoshop cs6 since two years without any problem. Yesterday, when trying to open it, a message appeared : "Internal problem in photoshop (code 16). Please reinstall photoshop.
So did I. But now, when I try to open photoshop, a window appears with photoshop extended proposing to go to the net for subsciption. I say no, the window closes an that's all.
I never susscribed to adobe extended programs and do neither have photoshop extended in my program list nor in the registery base.

Thank you. That solved that problem. I still can't get Windows 7 to associate TIF files to Photoshop. It's associated to it in Bridge, but when I try in Windows control panel, the file shows as being associated to Paint. When I try to change it, Photoshop is not even on the list of available programs. When I Browse to the directory and click Photoshop.exe, nothing happens. The association doesn't change and Photoshop does not appear as a choice. So I have no idea what to try next.
