Windows cannot open photoshop

how do i fix this?

The first thing that needs clarification is: are you opening the PSD in Illy or are you placing it? Opening is not recommended. Placing is okay (if it's a layered PSD, someone else will need to address that).
The second you already know: CS3 (at least) does not do well in any 64-bit OS, Vista or otherwise.
The third is: what is the size of the file you're trying to open/place. I've been unable to place any file 200MB or more (forcing me to do in PS what I'd rather do in Illy) although that may have had something to do with physical dimensions of the file I was trying to place.

  • Scratch disk full and cannot open photoshop to fix it...

    I cannot open photoshop because it says the scratch disk is full. I have been using photoshop (cs5) for 10 years and never had this problem. I recently installed cs5 on my Windows 7 computer and it worked for a few weeks, then this problem arose. I cannot afford a new version at this time but would like to use cs5 on this computer and I know it can work because it did for several weeks but now it won't and I can't follow the typical steps to remedy this situation because I cannot open photoshop. Please help!

    Hi there,
    The tips outlined below came from this site.
    First, if you can open Photoshop, check to see what hard drive is set up as your Photoshop scratch disk. To do this, go to Photoshop > Preferences > Performance. Then look under Scratch Disks to see which one you are using and how much free space it has. (FYI—I've included these steps for future visitors to this thread.)
    Option 1: Delete some files
    If your scratch disk is very full (or the free space is low), try deleting some unwanted files from the drive (for me, "Macintosh HD" as seen in the image above) to make room for new ones.
    Option 2: Delete temp files
    Search your computer for temporary files. These files are typically named ~PST####.tmp on Windows and Temp#### on Macintosh, where #### is a series of numbers. These are safe to delete.
    Option 3: Defragment your Hard Disk
    Instructions for Windows
    Instructions for Mac
    I hope one of these methods works for you!

    If anyone is reading this still looking for what caused the issue and how to fix it here is what I discovered.
    The antivirus program our company uses, Bitdefender Antivirus Plus, was causing some of the PDF files not to open. After troubleshooting the different modules and settings the culprit was..
    Scan SSL in Privacy Control Settings. Turning it OFF solved the problem and all the PDF files that previously would not open now open just fine. This issue has been sent to Bitdefender for them to review. If you use a different antivirus program and are having this issue try locating the Scan SSL setting and see if turning it off solves the problem.

    You cannot run Photoshop CS on a new Intel-based Mac running OS X Mavericks. CS is far too old.
    You'll have to buy Photoshop CS6 or Photoshop Elements 12. Or subscribe to CC.

    Have you updated your iTunes on your computer? WIth a device running iOS7, you need iTunes 11.
    When you removed iTUnes, did you see something named 'apple mobile device support' or something like it? (The exact name varies from operating system to operating system). If you see that, uninstall it too. That's the drivers for your iPhone and they should self-install when you plug your device in.
    If all that is fine, have you checked your cable and USB port? a malfunctioning cable can keep you from syncing.

  • Installing CS5.5, got an error window that says "windows cannot open this file"

    I download the CS5.5 files.  Clicked on the larger file to open it and received an error window stating that "windows cannot open this file".  Any suggestions?

    @caroline,
    are both files in the same directory?
    are you clicking the exe, not the 7z?
    if yes to both, right click the exe and click 'run as administrator'.
    if that fails, run the cleaner (Use the CC Cleaner Tool to solve installation problems | CC, CS3-CS6) and then click the exe.

  • HT204370 Trying to play my recently downloaded iTunes movie rentals. When opening I get the window "Cannot Open".  Others previously worked fine, internet connection is good, and payments went thru fine.  Please advise. Thx!

    iTunes movies won't play.  (Previously others worked fine.)  When I open the movies i get the window "Cannot Open".  Internet connection is fine, payment went thru fine.  Please advise...thx!

    Thankyou for the two replies.
    I have some good news but I still am concerned about why this happened?
    Using iTunes, I deleted then re-synced the video files that wouldn't play and now all of them play again.
    As I don't know why this problem occured, I am concerned about it happening again...it is NOT fun to have to delete and reload all of these vids, but, at least I know that there is some kind of "workaround"!
    If anyone has an idea of WHY this happened and, perhaps how to prevent it in the future, I would appreciate that input despite the fact that all my vids now play again.

  • Cannot open photoshop after uploading upgrade

    I am running Windows7 Home Edition 32bit and after unsuccessfully uploading the latest Photoshop CC upgrade I cannot open photoshop and am getting the following error message.
    The procedure entry point ?setScale@?$MultiScalePixelAccessBase@U$pixel@GU?$layout@U?$vector3@Ured_t@gil@boost@@Ugre en_t@23@Ublue_t@23@@mpl@boost@@U?£$range_c@H$0A@$02@23@@gil@boost@@@gil@boost@@@PM@@UAEXH@ Z could not be located in the dynamic link library PatchMatch.dll.
    How do I solve this problem.

    Sounds like you have a bad install - some of the libraries are damaged or the wrong version.
    Reinstalling may be your only hope.

  • The installation was canceled: Install Windows: Windows cannot open the required file E:\sources\install.wim Error code: 0x80070570

    I have a Windows XP computer and accidentally formatted the C:\ Drive. I then decided to buy the Windows Vista CD installation and popped it into the CD Drive, there was a problem with the Drive so I had to move it onto a USB Drive instead(on another computer).
    When I booted my PC(C: Drive formatted) all went well until I typed in the product key and clicked next. It shows a dialog box:
    Install Windows
    Windows cannot open the required file E:\Sources\Install.wim. The file may be                                        
    corrupt or missing. Make sure all files required for installation are available, and                                                
    restart the installation. Error code: 0x80070570
    I am in urgent need of help immediately. Please help me!
    P.S. and thanks for advance for any help. Sorry for anyone with the same problem.
    PC info: HP dc5750 Small Form Factor

    It sounds like there's a problem with that file. You will need to re-copy the files to USB or even re-download the operating system from Microsoft.

  • Cannot open photoshop

    Hi, I am using my Mac Pro with photoshop.
    My trial of Photoshop CS6 Extended had ran out,
    so I buy Creative Cloud today and want to change for it.
    However, after I bought CC online,
    I try to open my photoshop,
    but it still shows that my trial is over and need buy one.
    At that moment I had bought CC which means, I think, I can use my photoshop now,
    but sadly, I cannot use it cause everytime I open it, it shows that my trial is over.
    Then I go to Adobe Application Manager and check,
    in AAM, it shows that my version of photoshop is the newest one,
    but (damn it!) I still cannot open my photoshop!!
    So I try to unistall every apps related to Adobe and re-download the Adobe Application Manager online,
    however, after I download it, it still shows that my photoshop is the newest version, 
    but the fact is I've unistalled my photoshop so I don't have it in my Mac Pro now!!!
    I need to use Photoshop a week later, what should I do?
    I have bought Creative Cloud online so surely I've the right to use the product included in!!!
    It is really annoyed!!!

    Hi water2217,
    If you have purchased the Creative Cloud you all the rights to use the produts . To get your trial activated , i would request you to simply launch the product and click on License this software button when the trial window pops up. Once you have done that , please sign in with the correct Adobe id and the password and that should do it for you .
    Let us know if this works fine for you or not.
    Regards,
    Kartikay Sharma

    Hi Toakuva,
    That is quite weird. To be sure can you check under manage accounts whether it shows your username as an administrator or standard account.
