Every time I go to open a file, either with a short cut or FILE/OPEN, I get this crash message.
The application Photoshop has unexpectedly quit.

Okay, I just tried this… after running the Version Cue fix and with Photoshop still running, I went directly to the file I wanted to open (NOT using the "file open" menu in Photoshop) and right clicked on the file telling it to "open with Photoshop". The file opened without crash and now I can open files within Photoshop (using the "file open" menu) and things seem fine. So, all’s well that ends well I guess. Thanks for the help! 🙂
Ok, thanks Buko. Unchecked it in the Photoshop preferences, but I did not find it in the system preferences. Perhaps because I am not running the entire Creative Suite? (I only have Photoshop CS3 installed.) In any case, thanks again.
In attempting to open up any .psd file, I drop a file on top of the PS CS3 icon on the dock, but the file does not open. Only the PS program opens. The same happens when I double click a .psd file.
I want both to open with the drop (or double click). It’s only when PS is already open that I can then open a .psd file. What gives? Thanks.
You misunderstood the FAQ. It has two solutions, none of which involves "deinstalling". Read it again carefully.
At any event, in CS3 you can NEVER just drag the application or application folder to the trash like you could in prior versions. If you wanted to uninstall CS3, you MUST use the Adobe Uninstaler that CS3 installs in Applications / Utilities / Adobe /.
Under no circumstances should you attempt to move Photoshop CS3 to the trash.
"Archive and Install" is the preferred option to use when upgrading or updating the Macintosh Operating System. It does NOT require you to uninstall anything.
HELP PLEASE! A few days ago I got some pop up (I’m in windows XP) saying updates were available for 2 adobe things. I just chose yes and kept working. Now, I can’t open files in any of my CS3 programs. I have lost 4 days of productivity and fear losing my mind next!! I’ve tried to follow that link above, but it comes into my winzip program already unzipped and then when I double click it only acts like it wants to view the file, not run it. I did find the VC thing checked in my PS preferences and unchecked it and now I can open files. But all other programs show the VC unchecked. I even ran an unistall of version cue as a whole, no help. I uninstalled and reinstalled CS3 entirely, no help.
Please help!! Deadlines are looming! Thanks so much.
