Im using Photoshop CS4.
When I got to File, Open, then Computer, CS4 hangs for a while then crashes.
This only happens when I go to "Computer" for a file.
To make CS4 work, I have to go to the picture and right click, Open With, then select Photoshop CS4.
This always work fine.
Any help?
Thanks

Do you have one of the office products installed. I had a similar problem under XP Pro if I clicked in the drop down to change drive letters it would spin for a very long time. The solution for me was to go to my computer to change drive letters.

I also recently ran into a problem where I had a problem with CS4 saying it could not complete whatever I was trying at the time due to a program error. The fix for this was to remove any fax software and to set the default printer to a post script printer. It is doubtful that you have a post script printer but you can go to http://www.adobe.com …sp?ftpID=1500&f​ileID=1438 (external link) and install this and set it as your default printer. Very weird but it worked.


My life is like one big RAW file....way too much post processing needed.

Have you got a network printer installed?

I have had the same issue if my default printer was a network printer, now i have set the default printer to be a PDF printer and it works fine :)

I tried that now, but it still crashed.

Problem Solved
Regretfully I had to uninstall it and reinstall.
Too bad there isnt a repair option.
Working fine now.
