Re: Photoshop freeze on save
Just launch FontBook and disable your user account fonts. If the problem goes away them it is one of the fonts you disabled. Then go back and half the list. Repeat until you narrow it down to the conflicting font. Apply this process to the Computer fonts if needed. Be careful of the fonts needed by the Apple apps i.e. Mail, AddressBook, Safari, etc. dklj On Apr 12, 2005, at 7:17 AM, John McGibney wrote: On 4/11/05 9:40 PM, Deaner Lawless [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: Try disabling fonts in your account.

Photoshop freeze on save
I'm just about at my wits end. Shortly after I bought my G5 desktop I sat down to edit a couple desktop pictures in Photoshop and discovered that when I tried to save, Photoshop would freeze with the beachball from Hades. What's worse, the Finder would freeze very shortly thereafter and the only thing to do was reboot. So why am I posting the question here on the PowerBook list? Because while I was troubleshooting, I decided to do the work on my PowerBook. Same problem. What is infuriating is the fact that in a clean test account on both machines Photoshop doesn't freeze. So it has to be something I'm running in my user account, right? But what? After trashing prefs, removing 3rd party preference panes, and removing all my startup applications, I'm no further than when I started. At this point, unless someone on the list can tell me what the problem is, the only thing I see for it is to slowly build a new account until I find the crasher. david -- G-Books is sponsored by http://lowendmac.com/ and...
