Hi all,

I have a recent problem with photoshop, where it won't open an image in photoshop unless i go to open>imagename.jpg

When I try dragging the photo to the photoshop dock icon, it loads photoshop, but the image doesn't open. When I right click the image and tell it to open in photoshop, again, it opens photoshop but doesn't import the image.

PLEASE HELP! I'm using Mac os X. CS2

Thanks

Ivan

Never had or heard of that problem, what about re-installing Photoshop?

[cjgraphix]

Open photoshop first. Then try.

Also... is it just a particular image (set of images)??

i tried re-installing before. it's an image. and photoshop has been open first.

still no luck.

wtf

This is what is known technically as a "glitch". Some configurations of apps and add-ons simply combine to cause slightly odd behavior. If you can get your head around opening PS first and then the image(s), there's no problem.

I have a similarly mystifying glitch on my machine - when I create a PDF for the first time after a restart, my virus protection program also starts looking for on-line updates. Go figure.

My Photoshop CS3 won't save export a file until I've hit save three times

I have a similar problem with Illustrator CS2 on PC. I must have Illy open and then open AI files - opening them without having launched causes Illy to crash. It happens .... wouldn't worry too much. A bit of a pain yes, but not reason to panic.
