Question
I use photoshop CS installed on PowerPC G4 with high specs.
today morning when i want to open Photoshop, this message appears:
"Could not initialize photoshop because of a program error"
i delete photoshop preferences, and install a new fresh copy,
same message appear, please help.
regards,
Hi Homam,
It sounds like you are having a conflict with another application or shared component. If you have other Adobe applications installed, you may need to remove all adobe components, not just Photoshop and reinstall everything. I normally see this when a newer application is installed after Photoshop.
Thanks
Kevin
