[vet-mm] Photoshop problem

[Chris Ellis]

I have found that where students have home folders on a file server, the
Photoshop default scratch files are also mapped to the network. These files
can be 50-60MB easily and will kill network performance and if you have 20
kids saving at the same time at the end of a lesson there can be file
errors. To fix it, the scratch files have to be pointed to the local hard in
the PS preferences. Make sure your network admin have allowed local drive
access in your student profiles.

 

Cheers

 

Chris

Subject: [vet-mm] Photoshop problem

 

Hi all,

Maybe someone could help me with this Photoshop issue. At school we have
Photoshop 7 on the networked PCs (Windows XP, Novell network). We
occasionally have a problem with a .psd that will not open even though there
is a thumbnail preview  visible there in  the Photoshop Open File dialogue
box. We get the message: 

Could not open "filename.psd" because unexpected end-of-file was
encountered. 

In the past this has only occurred occasionally, so did not cause much
concern, but the other day one student could not open any of his psd files,
and a second student could not open the work she had recently created and
correctly saved and closed.

I'd appreciate any hints on this one,

thanks,

Marian
