I have previously been using Adobe Creative Suite CS2 Premium Web Bundle where I work. I recently was able to get an upgrade to Adobe Design Suite Premium CS3. I am using version 10.0.1.0
The primary piece of software that I use is Photoshop. I had not had any problems running Photoshop CS2 on my computer in the past. When I upgraded to CS3, I constantly ran into problems with it crashing.
I soon discovered that it didn't upgrade to CS3, but instead installed side-by-side with CS2. I uninstalled CS2 and continued to have the same problems. I have tried a reinstallation of CS3 with no improvement. I have had so many problems that my network administrator replaced my computer with a new one. Installing the software there gave me the same problems.
The new computer has the same baseline image with Windows XP SP2 (32 bit). >Intel(R) Core(TM)2 CPU
> 6600 @ 2.40GHz
>2.39 Ghz, 2.99 GB of RAM
There are so many operations that trigger a crash. To simplify things, I have found that the following steps are easily repeatable and guarentee a crash.
*CTRL+N (New File)
*ENTER (Ok button)
*CTRL+A (Select All)
*CTRL+C (Copy)
*CTRL+N (New File)
*ENTER (Ok Button)
*Crash!
It keeps prompting me to send in error reports to Microsoft to check the status, but nothing ever comes back.
I have Photoshop CS5 and would like to upgrade to CS6. I have a lot of tasks stored and would like to be able to either have them retained during the upgrade or save the files somewhere and then load them into CS6. Â
I've been using Photoshop CS6 for awhile now on a very stable iMac i5 with 16GB RAM on Snow Leopard but recently its behaving very badly. Â Â I am having problems with very minor tasks like transform, open, save, move, etc. Photoshop gets hung up and the wheel starts spinning. Typically this is a font related problem but I've done every maintenance task known to man and still having issues. I've deleted prefs, cleared out brushes, action, tools, repaired permissions, my fonts are all clean, has nothing to do with time machine or background tasks (that i know of) yet it still runs slow. This is definitely not a slow video card problem, I have an ATI Radeon HD 5750 1024 with 16GB of ram and plenty of hard drive space. I've ticked off the "Use Graphics Processor" restarted and the problem persists.... Â SO, i thought maybe i need to update my OS and get up to speed with the new cat, Mountain Lion. Maybe its just not cooperating with Snowy cats anymore. I completed the upgrade last night and I'm still seeing beachball working on 72 dpi PSD files. I've worked on 3GB layered files in the past with no problems.
I have a Render message that reads in red type "FTL: Virtual device creation failed." And I'm unable to click out of the message box, or click OK or cancel. Nothing happens. There seems to be a problem with my screen as well, it holds onto prior open windows and I'm unable to have a fresh window in Max. Does any of this have anything to do with os Windows 7 Home Premium vs. Pro or Ultimate? Even some of the tasks in Max don't seem to be initializing. For example, I tried to Manage>Set up Project and clicked on file in Windows 7 Home Premium and nothing happens.
I have been using Corel since V3. I recently started using X5 instead of V11 for my daily tasks. Overalll when it stays running all works great. But I have had multiple instances of the application just closing without warning on very simple tasks like editing text, moving text, trying to select a drop shadow and moving around toolbar. This instability scares me. One time it close unexpectely it corrupted the file too. I am used to the once in a while crash but this happened multiple times in a couple of days. When you reopen the same file and do the same tasks again no crash.
I have a new machine that locks up when doing basic tasks. Things such as pedit, switching tabs, undo. I am beginning to think that it is hardware related because the same drawing work perfectly fine in older machines

This is the first build with a SSD and this Video Card. I have the AMD V4900 in two other machines and they seem to be adequate but wanted a better card for this build.Â
I typically work in autocad with the Layer Properties Manager open on my other screen (dual screen setup). I have been having no problem with freezing and other layer management tasks on other files. But on a particular file, the simple task of freezing a layer takes 20 seconds. Other simple tasks like saving and switching to a layout sheet also take near 30 seconds. There only seems to be a few files that ever do this to me.
I have all xrefs updated and she'd purged and audited.
Also, does having the layer properties manager or properties manager dialogue windows open at all times dramatically complicate autocad's processes?
I have set up one computer to run the Task Scheduler to get the latest versions of my Library files (this is done with mutliple tasks thoughout the day). Is there a way to copy the scheduled tasked set up on this computer to other computers without manually setting up each machine.
I am using Autocad 2011 although I only use it to tidy my drawings prior to sending to my client, my proficiency is quite basic. I have been tasked with surveying a number of feeder pillars or cabinets with 5 points of data, pt 1 is the centre of the doors, the other 4 points are the corners of the cabinet always in the same order. These can be imported into Autocad as a series of points and then I have to join the dots, and draw the cabinet. I know a little about blocks and that I can create a block of my drawing and place it over the five points, and then I'm stuck as if I change the block once it changes it in all the other positions.
After i have placed the block, I need to list the coordinates of the 5 points, this i do individually using the id command and copy and paste into a table. Is there anyway to speed this up?
I have attached a sketch of what I'm after doing, there could be as many 20+ cabinets in a drawing.
Illustrator keeps freezing when applying an effect such as texture-grain to a simple gradient, or even rasterizing a simple black circle. My system is about a 6month old macbook pro with 16gb ram, i7 and AMD Radeon HD 6770M 1024 MB. What could be causing this? It wasn't like this when i first started using the laptop but has started to do it everytime i try and do any of those simple tasks recently.
Photoshop keeps crashing every time I convert a 32 bit image to 8bit. I am using Photoshop CS6 v13.0.4 x64 on MAC OS X 10.6.8. I goto Image>Mode>8bits/Channel.When the Merge HDR images Dialogue Box comes up I click "Merge".  At the following window about HDR Toning it immediately crashes. (immediately as in, a second after I took this screen capture) When i click "Don't Merge" it works fine, so it has something to do with the HDR Toning editing capabilities.  I have had problems before with CS6 working with 32 bit images on my Mac. It would render black within my selection. However it worked fine on Windows. In addition some who relied who also used MAC OS X 10.6.8 did it an it worked fine, however, he was using Photoshop CS6 v13.0.1 x64, while I am using v13.0.4 x64. So I think something broke in the later updates for PS CS6 for MAC. If I were to re-install Photoshop would that revert it to v13.0.1?

I have CS4 on my mac OS X 10.8.3. Photoshop CS4 is crashing all the time.I update it regularly.It used to crash using layers, so i changed the graphic settings as suggested in this forum, now this is ok.  Now PS crashes:
- everytime i do "save for web" - often when i work on text layers - sometimes for nothing in particular  It is really impossible to work in this conditions.Fireworks CS4 crashes too when trying to save a file.
**DELL i5 INSPIRON N5010** Processor : Intel(R) Core(TM) i3 CPU 370 @ 2.40GHz RAM 6 GB System Type : 64 bit OS Windows 7 Home Premium Graphic Card : ATI Mobility Radeon HD 550v (1GB) (No Updates available for last 2 years)  My problem is when I try to work with 3d workspace while using 3d feature for a particular object, it shows 3d platform and default 3d settings/ properties to that particular shape but as soon as i try to click on scene or any other property option in 3d layer menu it stops working and shows not responding error. I suspect the video card as I have only had this computer about one year and no problems with cs5. From what I can find out is that this is one of the video cards not tested by Adobe.Â
Jun 10, 2009 12:05 PM CS4 crashesI recently upgraded from Photoshop CS to CS4. I also run Elements 6. My problem: Now, Elements crashes whenever I use the edit function. CS4 allows all editing features but crashes with attempt to print. I also have a printing utility called QImage. Since installing CS4, QImage crashes with any attempt to open it. As a further "clue", attempting to print from Adobe Reader 9.1 crashes that program.
Does this sound at all familiar to anyone or has anybody experienced this as well? I have a blank document open and have tried both placing and opening an image (not one image in particular but many) and I recieve a pop up box saying CS3 has encountered an error and needs to close. I've uninstalled all adobe products on my PC and reinstalled them hoping that would help, but the same problem persists.
When I purchased CS3 Web Premium it took several months of tooling around to get it to install on Vista HP. Photoshop cs3 worked fine for a few months after installation. It now refuses to open any files - just goes to an eternal spinning icon. When I try to shut it down, it just says not responding. I reinstalled once (takes hours) and it worked for an afternoon. Next morning back to not opening files.

Photoshop crashes whenever I try to have two files open at once. It's doing it on my co-worker's computer too. Mine has done it as long as I've had this computer, but his just started doing it today; it worked fine before that. We're running CS3 on Vista.
My Photoshop CS2 has suddenly begun to crash on opening. After a few seconds it says " Unable to continue because of a hardware or systems failiure". All my other programs work OK (I think!). My most recent install was Office 2007.I am running Windows XP SP3 with 1.4G RAM and an Athlon 2G processor.
I just built a system, here's the specs:Intel Core i7 9206GB OCZ RamMSI X58 Pro MotherboardAsus EAH 4870 Top GraphicsVista Ultimate 64 I initially built this system about a week and a half ago, and put a beta copy of Windows 7 on it while waiting for my copy of Vista to arrive. PS installed fine, was blazing fast, and all was good. I then got Vista, formatted the system, etc. Tried to install PS, and it would crash on startup. I figured it was driver issues, so I decided to deal with it later. I updated all the drivers, etc, and it still wouldn't work. I uninstalled it, but got an error on uninstall. Eventually I found the PS Clean uninstall script, and that has been helping. Now when I try to reinstall, it reinstalls fine, but again, immediate crash. I figured, long shot, but maybe somehow my PS disc was corrupt, so I spent last night DLing a trial from here. Again, immediate crash.Running 64bit Vista, I have the option to open wither Adobe Photoshop CS4, or Adobe Photoshop CS4 (32 bit.) They both have the exact same error.This is getting pretty annoying, and I honestly have already spent too long looking through KB articles, and I'm hoping you guys might have a solution for me. I have attached a screenshot of the error I have been getting. If it matters, this is a shot from the install of the trial I downloaded. Regarding a "program" causing it, and Windows closing it, this even happens with nothing open at all, including system tray things. Also, whatever Windows says it will close,
Has anyone had trouble with PS 7.0 crashing when attempting to use the Image Size Function.It was fine until Auto updates from Windows came through a few days ago.
My version of PS4 that was working fine has stopped working, it crushes at start up. I clean installed the program several times but the result is the same.
I'm using CS 5.5 with Camera Raw 6.7 on Windows XP. Suddenly, I'm having challenges with images opened and edited in Camera Raw 6.7, with either trying to save directly to disk or opening in Photoshop. I am getting "out of memory" errors. I've purged the caches, etc., but to no avail.
Every time I open Photoshopp CC on my Mac Pro (8-core, 32Gb RAM) I get the spinning beachball of death and the app is completely unresponsive. I have logged out and back in to the CC to no purpose. I am completelt fed up with continually beta testing Adobe's software and paying through the nose for it. Â There is also no crash log generated, nor an opportunity to submit one.
I'm not sure why Photoshop CS6 crashes when it saves. Here is the debugging info.  Problem signature:  Problem Event Name:         APPCRASH  Application Name:         Photoshop.exe  Application Version:         13.0.0.0  Application Timestamp:         4f61c045  Fault Module Name:         aticfx64.dll  Fault Module Version:         8.17.10.1151  Fault Module Timestamp:         50525d73
If I open a PSD with type, the file opens but Photoshop hangs. If the PSD contains no type (eg type rasterised), Photoshop works fine. My OS is Windows Vista.
After Adobe Creative Cloud installed Photoshop CC via the root account, see:  [URL]  The Adobe Photoshop CC 14.1.1 (14.1.1.415) crashes immediately on startup under OS X 10.8.5 unless I am running logged into the root account. This happens when I try to run Adobe Creative Cloud.app as a standard user or as a user with admin privileges.  In other words, the only way I am able to run the Adobe Photoshop CC application is if I take the dangerious option of enablign the root account, logging into it and then directly running the application.  how I can run Adobe Photoshop CC without having to both enable and login to the root account.
I have a windows 7 32bit machine with sp1. And it meets all the system requirements for cs6..After I install adobe, i can open a drawing, but if i make a change to the drawing it crashes with the following error  Problem Event Name:BEX Application Name:Photoshop.exe Application Version:13.0.0.0 Application Timestamp:4f61beba Fault Module Name:StackHash_0a9e Fault Module Version:0.0.0.0 Fault Module Timestamp:00000000 Exception Offset:191d5f40 Exception Code:c0000005 Exception Data:00000008 OS Version:6.1.7601.2.1.0.256.4 Locale ID:1033 Additional Information 1:0a9e Additional Information 2:0a9e3 72d3b4a d191 35b953a78882e789 Additional Information 3:0a9e Additional Information 4:0a9e372d3b4ad19135b953a78882e789  I have uninstalled it and reinstalled it.

I just got a brand new Dell XPS8500 with Windows 8 2 days ago and installed CS6, and I'm having problems with Photoshop crashing, Indesign has also crashed a few times.
Photoshop seems to be working for a few minutes and then crashes, and just says that it has encountered a problem and needs to close, no further explanation. It looks like my Windows is up to date, but when I try to download Adobe updates it says "The update server is not responding. The server might be offline temporarily or the internet or firewall settings may be incorrect". I didn't think there would be updates, I only installed 2 days ago.
