Oops, Photoshop just broke again.

Photoshop has now broken on me twice.  Same way as you.

My opin of Adobe is sinking fast.

Makes me love GraphicConverter all the more.

Guess we should try Gimp...

Dan, Photoshop has been running fine for me for a few days now, even with heavy use, so I guess I fixed it. The way I fixed it was to create a new User account and steal some fresh prefs out of its library to replace the ones in mine. The prefs I replaced in my account were:

Adobe Photoshop CS2 Paths
Adobe Photoshop CS2 Settings
com. adobe.mediabrowser.plist
and com.apple.finder.plist

The way I figured out which prefs to replace was this: I opened Photoshop in a new user account, and then looked into that account's library to see what prefs had changed at the exact time I opened Photoshop. Those are the prefs that I dragged over into my own user account and replaced. Then Photoshop worked and opened pictures again, instead of just spinning its beachball forever until I force-quit it.

I suppose you could also just trash those prefs in your user account and let Photoshop (and the finder) create new ones, and Photoshop might work then too, but I know that replacing them from another account works. At least it did for me, and I hope it does for you too.
