Photoshop :: Why Won't CS6 Create New Files Or Open Old Ones After A While
Sep 28, 2012
I installed the CS6 Master Suit trial version and after a little bit, I'd notice that after awhile of using photoshop, it wouldn't:
Open old files Create new ones Would slow down and start bugging out if I had a file open when the "event" occured.Would be unable to save. After searching google, I found, such as the default printer being a network printer that was not connected or that the preferences had been corrupted. None of these worked. I did a clean reinstall of windows, but this did not fix my problem. Now, I think I remember that there was an issue that I had like this years ago, and it was a windows update that screwed up photoshop, one of the K9XXXXXX such updates. Other than that, I have no leads except the fact that it is either hardware based or somehow the problem lingers after reinstall of windows.

I recently downloaded and installed the Photoshop CS6 Trial for Windows. Upon starting it, I try to create a New document, and no dialog window even opens.The open dialog will open, but selecting a file does nothing.

I am using Adobe Cloud. And have downloaded Photoshop CS6. Using it locally.
It was working fine. For weeks. The application still loads without error. But if I open a file nothing happens. No error message. But no file appears. And if I try to create a new file the same thing. No error message. But no new canvas to work with. In both cases nothing appears in the layers panel.
The Help menu gives me the option of deactivating. So I am assuming it is not an activation issue. Fireworks works fine. Illustrator works fine. Only Photoshop has this problem.
I am running Windows 8. 64bit. 12gb. NVIDIA GeForce GTX 560 2gb. Adobe Photoshop Version: 13.0 (13.0 20120315.r.428 2012/03/15:21:00:00) x64. No optional 3rd party plugins.

I have never encountered this before, and really dont want to have to reload PS. I am currently running Photoshop CS.
When I choose File-New, it allows me to specify file size and such, and then I click ok and nothing happens. If I click File-Open, the open dialog box comes up, I can select a file and click open, and nothing happens. However, when that open dialog box opens, if I double click an individual file, it will open.
Another thing I noticed is that if I want to use the text tool, I have to double click on the image in order to get the cursor to come up. It seems like everything requires a "double-click", but I havent found any reference to this. Does anyone have any insight?

I have CS6 running on Win8 pro and as of today I can’t get photoshop to open or create new files. It just essentially ignores me - no crash, and the menus are still available. It’s been working past few weeks though. I have tried rebooting at least 5 times and deleted my settings file (CTRL+SHIFT+ALT when starting). Nothing works. The cloud app says it is up to date.
I am running a GeForce GTX 560M and was running the latest released driver. I've tried installing their latest beta driver and got same results. Is there a log file somewhere I can check?

I have CS5 for my Mac (running on OSX 10.7.5) and I cannot get any windows to open. If I open the program, go to File > New and try to create something when I hit OK there is no new blank window popping up. Over on the right hand side there is a layer for background but no window. If I try to drag a file into Photoshop, it will show the layers on the dashboard along the side but the file doesn't actually pop up.

My Photoshop suddenly is not responding to any actions, such as opening ,creating or saving documents. Program is not freezed or anything, it just doesn't respond to actions. I worked with Photoshop last night, everything worked fine, set'd PC to sleep mode instead of shut down. Now when I woke up the PC, and tried to continue working, Photoshop just doesn't respond at all.
I had very little hard drive space available, but I cleaned it up to like 20Gb (I have worked with Photoshop, when there's only like 2Gb free space on scratch disk tho), closed other programs but still the same.
Restarting computer doesn't work anything, program opens, but it won't open or create anything. This is frustrating,

Suddenly my Photoshop CS4 has stopped working. I can open the program, but are not able to either open files (jpg, psd, tif ++) or create new files. No error message, it just doesn't happen anything. The program doesn't stop working either, I can still browse all menus or try to open the file again, but nothing happens, it's just like the functions doesn't work. Sometimes I''m able to open a file, by browsing my computer and choose "open in photoshop cs4". Then the file opens in Photoshop, but I'm not able to do anything. No menus or actions are working. I'm running 64bit Windows 7 on a Lenovo T420s laptop.
I'm running photoshop version 11.0.2
I have tried to reset the preferences, tried to reinstall Photoshop, tried other versions (CS5) and even tried to reinstall my computer. The program is still not working.
System info:
Adobe Photoshop Version: 11.0.2 (11.0.2x20100514 [20100514.r.591 2010/05/14:02:00:00 cutoff; r branch]) X64

About a month and a half ago, after a microsoft update, I cannot open .cdr files from the file/open list. When going to file/open, the programs hangs up, cannot even use "cancel", and have to go to Windows Task Manager to shut down the program. All is well until I try to open a file from file/open.
I can import .eps, and everything else seems fine.My work around is to open from My Documents --Which works fine. Just is a silly little aggravation.
I have uninstalled, reinstalled, repaired, etc....all the normal fixes.

I recently installed a student version of Maya 2012 on my home computer so I didn’t have to work from college for a project, but I have run into some issues.
Not sure what is going on with my Maya but it won't open files unless I actually go to it in the browser and double click on the file. Even once I have done that I can only save over it, save as doesn't work. I also can't create or set projects. There are probably more problems but these are the ones I noticed/really need.
This is what appears in my output window:
Could not find maya.utils._guiExceptHook.
Invalid Python Environment: Python is unable to find Maya's Python modules
Python Environment:
PYTHONHOME = C:Program FilesAutodeskMaya2012in
PYTHONPATH = C:Program FilesAutodeskMaya2012in;C:/Program Files/Autodesk/MayaPlugIn2012//scripts;C:/Program Files/NVIDIA Corporation/PhysX for Maya/Maya 2012/scripts

I'm using Gimp 2.8.4 on a MacBook Pro.
I have been working on an image file for several hours now, and as a result, there were MANY files open (probably over 30).
I attempted to save the file, and recieved the following error message:
"Could not read the contents of [folder name] Too many open files"
I then closed each of the open files except the file I was trying to save, but got the same results.
The same error message pops up when I try to open a file as well.

I'm working with both Photoshop and Illustrator CS6 on a mac. I'm creating a graphic. The background is a (cartoonish) mouth and I finished it a couple of days ago. (It's an Illustrator file.) I've been working on the letters to go inside of the mouth, (Once I'm finished it'll look as though they're being crushed.) I scanned and edited small wooden letters in Photoshop, and now I would like to work with them with the background in Illustrator. I understand how to open a Photoshop file in Illustrator, but I don't want to open the document as a separate Illustrator file. Is there a way to open a file from Photoshop as a second layer?
Some of the letters repeat as well. Will I have to create two files for this, or can I open the same file twice?

After many years of using LR this is the first time I've encountered this issue (see 1st screenshot below). LR is scrambling my files. The affected raw files open fine in other programs, including adobe photoshop cc (see 2nd screenshot).

Photoshop starts as normal. When I do File>Open or File>New nothing happens. [URL]
I've uninstalled, deleted all AppData and ProgramFiles folders, installed, updated. Still no luck. Version 12.0.4 x64.I've removed all printers.I've done the preferences reset trick by holding down CTRL+ALT+SHIFT when launching Photoshop.I've done the super weird ESC and CTRL+SHIFT+S described in the last link above (sounds like nonsense!). Photoshop was working fine on this same computer earlier, but one day decided to stop working.Can't even access the Adobe Chat support for CS5 even though I paid them a lot for this currently 100% useless software.
I'm running Windows 7 X64, fully updated.Photoshop CS5 (12.0.4 x64). Freshly installed.

I'm studying Photoshop at home using Pearson's " Class in a Book", from Adobe. I'm now stuck in Chapter 10, editing Videos, because I cannot open two files needed to proceed with the next excercise. I'm not able to open 3 of the 9 files in Photoshop, even tried to drag, change format, etc. All the other files with formats like MP4 and JPG have no problem opening, only those with MP3 & MOV extensions. I Should note that I can open all the files directly from windows file explorer or using Bridge, through Quicktime.
Bellow, is the message i get when I try to move the file to Photoshop.
"Could not complete your request beacuse the video file could not be open"
