This sounds like a known problem with the Panther installer's "Archive and
Install" option, but Apple has not publicized it well.

That upgrade option archives your old system and installs a new one, leaving
your Applications folder alone and copying across some of the application
support files. Unfortunately, not all of them. A more or less random
selection of applications quit working in various ways after an Archive and
Install. 

The solution is to either:

1. Re-install the affected application after the OS upgrade.

2. Copy the affected file(s). In the case of Photoshop, you need to copy the
ScriptingAdditions folder from the old system's Library folder to the new
system's Library folder (that's the Library folder at the root of your boot
drive, not the Library folder in your home directory). Re-launch Photoshop
after copying this folder and you'll be fine. (Adobe has posted this info to
their website).
