Type 2 (also Type 3 and Type 1) are normally related to a lack of application memory meaning not enough RAM has been allocated to the application.
Photoshop can suffer very badly from this dilemma. See the link on the U of MD help desk page I listed below for "adjusting the memory partition." Read and follow those directions. If the memory trick doesn't work, and you were running the application while shift booted, it may need to be reinstalled; perhaps a corrupt extension. Also, check out Adobe's support pages.

A nice Mac resource is the pages at U of MD help desk pages:
http://www.helpdesk.umd.edu/os/macos/troubleshooting/
Some of the pages are U of M specific, but it also has some good general Mac pages too.

I have a beige G3 running Mac OS 9.2.2 and I was using Photoshop 7 and Photoshop Elements 2 with no problems. Now if I start either one they quit with a type 2 error. I tried shift booting and the problem goes away. I tried removing all the startup stuff I could with no luck. Does any one have any ideas? I quit using OS X because of all the problems.
