Photoshop CS6 Extended crashes all the time and now so does CS2

juliebalto · Dec 18, 2012, 10:30 AM

I posted this at the Adobe forum, was told it was probably a font conflict, paid $70 for Font Doctor, ran that, cleaned up the fonts and its still crashing by simply scrolling thru to find a file to open and to make matters worse, my CS2 which hardly ever crashed now crashes just opening it. I am rather beside myself, I have an iMac running 10.6.8 with 4GB of memory. I would love to copy and paste the crash report but it's not letting me do that - is there a specific line in that report that I could type out that would tell anyone anything?? HELP!

Recently I find it's best to clean out old CS installs before a new version gets installed.

I'd do a clean install of the OS and try re-installing CS6. Or before that, clean out CS2 (or any trail versions of CS) and use the the tool Adobe have to remove the licence from the machine.

Did you try deleting the preference files and restarting?
It is not all that uncommon to have this problem once every so many years.
