ARGH!!!!! Photoshop won't start up!

[Excellent2]

I keep getting 'Photoshop CS3 has crashed, please send a crash report' I'm using a Mac, it just happened today right after I finished using it?? I've uninstalled everything twice and re-installed it, still doesn't work! Any ideas? :(

[J0SH]

Isn't Photoshop windows only? :S

[Recursion]

Urr no?

Tried using App Zapper to fully remove it then reinstall it?

[Excellent2]

Use AppZapper to remove it, downloading just Adobe Photoshop CS3, not the extended version to see if it works :)

[Excellent2]

Nope, still don't work >.< Anybody know how to fix this?

I run Adobe Photoshop CS3 fine on my Intel mac. Hmm, I don't know what the problem could be. What's your mac specs? I really advise you to ask over at Mac Rumors, someone over there should know the problem or a fix at least.

This is what I get when I try and load it up now:

I've been on the adobe website and I've done the steps in order to make this work, but it doesn't still. When I add it to my cracking program to unlock it I get "Adobe Photoshop CS3 has crashed, please send a crash report"

Fixed! Solution for anybody who has the same problem.

OSX:
Navigate to your Save Disk folder, open up the Library folder, go to Preferences and find the FLEXnet Publisher folder, open FLEXnet folder and move the file "adobe_00080000_tsf.data" to your desktop, load it up, done :)
