Photoshop program error when the text tool is selected

I tried to use the text tool in Photoshop and I am able to select the tool, but as soon as I place the cursor on my document, I get a program error. From there on, I have to force quit the program out. I downloaded an update of safety for my mac yesterday, but since I was not using the text tool in photoshop recently, I'm not sure if that had anything to do with this issue or not. Someone had the same problem?

Would appreciate any help. Thank you.

You must give us more information:

-What system, what version of photoshop, the error message says, have you tried using a different font (maybe you have a corrupt font), you reset your tools, delete your preferences, etc.

  • element of Photoshop crashes when the text tool

    A week ago my Photoshop Elements began to break up when I select the text tool.

    Files that I've created in the past which contain text layers now open with a message "a problem reading layer 'text' [all the text was on the record] because of a program error." The existing pixel data will be there will substitute. Continue? »

    When I press 'Continue' and either select the text to try to change, or try and add text, it blocks the program which stops immediately, creating an accident report. I copied the accident report, but it's super long, so I don't know if it makes sense to paste it here.

    The same thing happens when I create new files and you want to add a text layer - it hangs and stops when I select the text tool. She makes my Photoshop Elements basically useless.

    I don't understand why this is happening - I did not download new fonts or anything like that and I don't do anything different than usual when you work on files. I run Photoshop elements 11 on Mac OS X 10.10.1

    Suggestions appreciated!

    Sometimes problems PSE to make it out no reason apparent and which are not fixed by the reset tool. In this case, it might be that the preferences file is corrupted.

    To restore this file in PES 11 and later versions: Edit > preferences > general and click on "Preferences of Reset on the next launch.

  • Is there a way to disable the handles that appear when the move tool is selected in Photoshop CC?

    I can see how it may be convenient, but sometimes I work with very small elements and the little square handles block my view. I know that I can just zoom in, but I'd rather have these alleys handles.

  • Muse freezes when the text box is selected

    I know that this problem was supposed to be solved with a previous update, but I use Muse with Mac OS Mavericks and I can't select a text without freezing Muse box.

    Muse is simply suspended without any error message? Looks like we will need to take a look at your file and try to reproduce and diagnose the shot.

    Please send us the .muse file at [email protected] as well as a link to this topic.

  • I can't use the Justification when a TEXT layer is selected...

    Hello...

    Please take a look at this picture and tell me what is the problem?

    http://img3.Tinypic.info/files/casc3lpzzmxpt9hu33hl.gif

    the menu turns off when I select a text layer for a justification to do about! but when I select another layer it seems!

    How can I use it when the text layer is selected?

    As I said, you must use the paragraph type you want to use the justification options, no pointer type. And no, this isn't how the paragraph Panel should look like.

  • Could not complete your request because the program error when trying to set the text on a path

    I'm putting the text on a curve and when I click with the text tool on the way I get this error message "can not complete you request because of a program error."  Photoshop CC 2014 on Win 7 with 32 GB RAM machine.  Never had this problem before!

    Hi njquinn,

    'Could not initialize Photoshop because of a program error' is a generic error and means something unexpected.

    See the PSErrorLog.txt file in your folder of Photoshop CS5 preferences (C:\Users\> \AppData\Roaming\Adobe\Adobe Photoshop 2014\Adobe Photoshop CC 2014 Settings CC). Which could give us an idea what goes wrong. In case you are not able to understand it, please copy and paste here.

  • Photoshop CS5.1 64 bit crash, usually after using the text tool.

    The problem started after I replaced my hard drive with an SSD and added an internal HARD drive, so I guess that it is linked to that.  When it crashes, Windows gives me the following message is displayed:

  • The text tool does not work in Photoshop CC

    When I try to use the text tool, that it does nothing when I type even if the font size is 12, and the color is black on a white background, and then when I try to get out of the text tool a progress bar will appear that says "Record type" and the progress bar does not until 15 minutes later. After that, no text shows. I tried to move the text tool above where I have used it previously, and the cursor doesn't detect any text in the box.

    This is a brand new installation of photoshop, I did not any customizations to it.

    My operating system is a Mac with OS X 10.7.5.

    I already tried things:

    …………………………………………….

    -J' tried to uninstall and reinstall Photoshop CC and creative cloud.

    -J' tried to change the font size, color. Each took 15 minutes due to the type of rendering progress bar.

    -J' tried to change major fonts such as Verdana, Arial, etc..

    -J' did the steps on this page to troubleshoot fonts:

    http://helpx.Adobe.com/Photoshop/KB/troubleshoot-fonts-Photoshop-CS5.html

    It was the procedure on this page:

    S ' ensure that Photoshop is the most recent version.

    -Clear overview of the policies.

    -Delete the specified fonts known to cause trouble.

    -Clear cache fonts photoshop

    -Clear cache OS police

    -Try to remove everything except a font on the Mac and keep the rest in another folder.

    -Use their fonts test script.

    Now the police only that I have in my folder of Mac fonts is Arial.ttf

    I did all these things, and the problem still occurs. All other tools works fine for me! I need to use photoshop for graphics work, I need to do. Any help would be greatly appreciated!

    I found the problem! When I pressed 'File' > 'New' to make a new document, I typed in the 1000, but I'm used to the measures in pixels, not inches. The new facility was in inches lol. The Web was gigantic! Once I put it to a smaller size that the text tool worked great! I feel stupid, I over looked that.
