tobbenos Posted November 16, 2007 Share Posted November 16, 2007 I have got the Adobe Design Premium Suite CS3, running on a Macbook Pro 15,4" 2,2 GHz, OS X 10.4.10. All programmes included in the design suite work without problems, except Photoshop and Bridge. I have searched around on this forum, and found that a tip often given is to replace AppleSMBIOS.kext with the same file, just v1.0.6. I did this, repaired disk rights and rebooted, without any change (the version I had before was 1.0.12). I am sure there are other tips on the forum, but I have not found them. What are the steps I have to take to make Photoshop work properly? Bear in mind that I have just converted from being a Windows user to Mac, so my knowledge about the Mac and its filesystem is not the best. I may mention that this is a bit of an urgency.. Thankyou in advance! Link to comment https://www.insanelymac.com/forum/topic/71697-solved-photoshop-cs3-crashing-on-launch/ Share on other sites More sharing options...
tobbenos Posted November 16, 2007 Author Share Posted November 16, 2007 I may supply some more information..: The splash screen appears, and it seems to crash when "Initialising suites". I have tried deleting the preferences folder/file, without affect. I have not tried reinstalling it, but I do not want to do that if it is not strongly necessary.. Has this error not occured to anyone?

tobbenos Posted November 16, 2007 Author Share Posted November 16, 2007 Finally, after searching and reading what seems like a whole universe of forums, I have got it working. I came across a tip using a script Adobe has made. This script is originally made for removing every single evidence of there anytime having been a CS3 trial version or pre-release, before you install the full and final package. After running the script and reinstalling, everything works in perfect order. The script Well, what to say?
