As others have already reported, I'm also experiencing repeated crashes
when using CS4. This can happen at any time:
- when loading an image
- when creating or modifying a selection
- when editing the image
- ...
No obvious pattern detected. After the crash, when I relaunch PS, I
often (not always) get a message telling me that GPU acceleration/
OpenGL drawing has been disabled. However, I also had crashes with
OpenGL drawing disabled.
I'm using a Windows XP Pro SP3, a GeForce 6600 GT with the latest driver
(version 178.24, October 15, 2008) and the motherboard is an ASUS
A8N-SLI Premium running an AMD Athlon 64 X2 Dual Core 4400+ with 3GB of
RAM.
I recently made some changes to the NVidia settings and had no crash
since then:
- Use my advanced 3D image settings
- Anisotropic filtering 16x
- Anti aliasing : 8xS
- Conformant texture clamp: Off
- Error reporting: Off
- Extension limit: Off (if you set this to On, PS crashes and disables
OpenGL drawing)
- Force MipMaps: None
- Maximum pre-rendered frames: 0
- Single display performance mode
- Texture filtering settings: Off with exception of 2
- Negative LOD Bias : Clamp
- Quality: High quality
- Threaded optimization: On
- Triple buffering: On
- Vertical Sync: Force On (also On in PS as well as "Force Bilinear
Interpolation" and "Advanced Drawing")
All of my recently installed SC4 software will initiate and open perfect. However, when I try to open a file it gives me the attached error. I can begin a new document and render just fine.
I have been using HDR Efex Pro2 for a year as a preset in Lightroom 4 with no problem. Now it crashes all the time. Could this be because I upgraded Lightroom to 4.4?
I am doing simple extrusions in 3D. One or 2 extrusions in a document. Specifically, earrings. I have to save every few steps , because PS is going to crash at least once per hour.  My computer has 12GB RAM, and a 1GB GPU. My MAC is less than a year old. It should be able to handle the workload.  When I'm doing 3D I shut down all other programs on my computer.  I have turned up all the preferences inside PS pertaining to performance.  When I save a document the SAVE time is 3-7 seconds. Each time I hold my breath that it doesn't fail.
I have CS6 now but got the same problem in CS3 Â They are jpeg files and can be read by several other programs with no problem. Â I cannot do a lot of work because this keeps happening.
The sliders are nearly useless for me as I typically use pens and brushsizes of 1,5, 10 and 20. I need to change the size regularly and thesliders would be ideal yet my 'working' range is in a tiny little bit atthe end of the slider value.
It would be a huge gain for me to some how set the max slider value to avalue of my choice (say 50) rather than the current value of 1000
Is it possible? If not can I make a feature request (and if so how)
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 got a new computer:  Processor Name:         Intel Core i7  Processor Speed:         2.3 GHz  Number of Processors:         1  Total Number of Cores:         4  L2 Cache (per Core):         256 KB  L3 Cache:         6 MB  Memory:         4 GB OSX 10.8.5  I just installed my CS4 Creative Suite and Photoshop immediately crashes upon making a second layer. Adobe tells me that my computer is not compatible with this version of Photshop and I have to upgrade if I want to use Photoshop. I haven't even checked if the rest of the suite is compatible, but I assume it is not. I did try to update the Adobe Updater. It says "A new version of the Adobe Update is available for intstallation. Click OK to install it now. Note: You may be required to authenticat in order to install.  Then it checks all the products in my Suite and returns on an endless loop to the above.  Here is the report when it crashes:  Process:        Adobe Photoshop CS4 [172] Path:           /Applications/Adobe Photoshop CS4/Adobe Photoshop CS4.app/Contents/MacOS/Adobe Photoshop CS4 Identifier:     com.adobe.Photoshop Version:        11.0 [11.0x20080919 [20080919.r.488 2008/09/19:02:00:00 cutoff; r branch]] (11.0) Code Type:      X86 (Native) Parent Process: launchd [143] User ID:        502
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.
Macine is dell xps M1210, 2Gb Ram, Core 2 T5600 processor, NVIDIA Go 7400 64Mb card.
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.

It says It needs to be turned on.
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.
