My computer seems to be working just fine. I can scrap and it doesn't slow or anything. Acts normal. The second I try to save my layout though it freezes up! I lost yet another page I made yesterday. It's driving me nuts! Plus, I'm falling behind on my CT work.
yikes that totally sucks! have never had that happen to me... yet am sure someone here may know how to help you!
Oh no, that is awful!!! I'm having PC issues too - mine is going sooo slow, especially in PS. I hate it.
Trish, it sounds like maybe your scratch disk is full or malfunctioning. You might try deleting all of your ~PST####.tmp files if you're on Windows. You will probably see a bunch of them with different numbers.
Mine has been closing down in middle of scrapping too, it did that a couple times today. I keep saving every few minutes. I would like to know where the files to be erased too.
Search all of your drives for *.tmp files. The PS ones will have files names PST and then a bunch of numbers. You can safely delete them. If you don't mind losing your editing history, you can also try Edit > Purge to dump all of the caches in PS.
