Hi Severin,

The cause will be in the Metadata of the original "nogood" images.
PS CS3 is having a problem reading some part of the hidden Metadata file, but after opening the jpeg in another application & re-saving it has stripped the problem part of the Metadata file.
Therefore PS CS3 is then able to handle this new Metadata file.

I probably haven't explained that very well, but that is the gist of it.

Cheers,
Ronni

Well, Daniel, you have come up with something useful here.
Opening a nogood image in Graphic Converter then saving as either a .jpg or .psd comes up with a file that Photoshop CS3 is completely now happy with. Shows mea way forward but it would be nice to know what the cause really is!
Thanks to Daniel and Ronni on this

Could br corrupt resource information that only PShop uses. If you open into say GConvertor and "save as" back out as a "new" image, then reopen into PShop does it still crash?

Hi Severin,

Have you tried not assigning the working profile to these images?

Ronni, yes it only some of them and iPhoto, Preview and Graphic Converter are happy with them all. I can detect no differences, a real mystery. Something to puzzle over on this inhospitable windy and wet afternoon.

I am handling a large collection of photos of the Albany Summer School from 2003 to the present, not my collection, someone else's. They are innocent looking JPEGS and all import happily into iPhoto and usually do not have an embedded profile. When trying to open them in Photoshop CS3, some, but not all, cause Photoshop to crash when told to assign the working profile. These same problem files open perfectly in Graphic Converter (and in Preview) and from Graphic Converter they copy and paste with no problem into Photoshop. I can see nothing at all unusual about these particular problem files. I am wondering if CS3 has been left behind by my Leopard 10.5.8 but suspect it is something much more radical.
Help welcomed.  I am talking about 1000 photos.

Hi Severin,

I was waiting & hoping someone else would have a shot at solving this for you :-(

It's not ALL the jpegs that are causing Photoshop CS3 to crash?
If it is not ALL the jpegs, it has to be something specific to those images?

There was a known issue with Photoshop CS3 crashing which was due to updating Version Cue CS3 3.1.0, but your problem is only happening on "certain" jpegs.

Solutions to the Version Cue CS3 3.1.0 update can be found at the below links:
