I've had my copy of PS CS4 since it came out and never had any problems until today. I was working on a simple image and clicked the "Drop Shadow" checkbox in layer styles and it froze. I figured this happens so I restarted it and it happened again doing something totally different! I reset the Photoshop settings and it was fine for 30 minutes and it just did it again. Does anyone know what could possibly be doing this?

Have you installed any new programs recently that would eat up your memory?

Are you working on a non Intel machine? If so, you're running CS4 in Rosetta, which is prone to lockups and slowdowns.

No to both. I haven't installed anything new recently and when I use Photoshop, it's the only thing running. There is also tons of room on my HDD.

I am working on an Intel Machine, it's the MacBook Pro 08 version
