All CS4 Products Crash on Mac OS X Lion 10.7.4

Hello everyone,

I can't get any products to run. Not Photoshop, Illustrator, Fireworks, Dreamweaver etc. They will launch, load and then freeze almost immediately at which point I have to force quit them. I have rebooted the system to no avail. Please help, what steps should I take to fix this?

Stuck in the mud

Did you tranfer the products to your computer with Migration Assistant? You need to install Adobe applications from the original install discs or files.

Also, if you did install them from the install discs or files, try running them in another user. Sometimes the corruption is in the files in a user, and creating a new one fixes the problem.

No, I did not migrate them. I believe I installed from download. They used to work "sometimes". For example, if I right click a file and say open with it would not open but launch the program and freeze. I would have to open the program, then use file/open to select the file. I even used Dreamweaver today for a bit. But now... they all crash. I didn't do any updates. Not sure what happened. Can you help?

I would have to open the program, then use file/open to select the file. I even used Dreamweaver today for a bit. But now... they all crash.

So , are all the application when you open the application or document in the application , when does these application crashes.
