Tip
Two: Photoshop
CS doesn't open double-clicked files?
Here
is a problem we're seeing recently: When designers try to open an
image in Adobe Photoshop by double-clicking it or dragging it to
the Photoshop icon, Photoshop opens, but the image does not. If
this has been bugging you, here is the answer:
The
Cause:
This
problem occurs when the "Adobe Unit Types" file is missing
from your Mac OS X library folder. This is most often caused by
performing an Archive and Install method to upgrade to Panther from
an other version of Mac OS X.
The
Fix:
Solution
#1: Copy "Adobe Unit Types" file to the correct folder.
If
you've performed an Archive and Install recently, there may be a
Previous System folder on your hard drive. Look inside that folder
for a file called "Adobe Unit Types." This file needs
to be moved back into the following folder:
[hard
drive]/Library/ScriptingAdditions
Note:
If the folder "ScriptingAdditions" does not yet exist
in your Library folder, you can create it yourself. Make sure to
use the exact spelling shown in this example (no spaces). If you
can't find "Adobe Unit Types" on your hard drive, you
can download a stuffed copy of the file here.
Solution
#2: Reinstall Photoshop CS.
Reinstalling
Photoshop CS places the missing "Adobe Unit Types" file
back where it should be, thus fixing the problem.
