Photoshop :: 13 Being Hog On Disk Resources And Freezing Up Constantly?
Sep 25, 2013
My Photoshop had been freezing up constanly ever since I updated to the latest version Now everything is a nightmare!
Â
My System Info:
Adobe Photoshop Version: 13.0.1 (13.0.1.2 20130522.r.24 2013/05/22:21:00:00) x64
Operating System: Windows 7 64-bit
Version: 6.1 Service Pack 1
For some reason my Photoshop CS 8.0 that I have had for years started freezing up and I have uninstalled and reinstalled, looked on C drive for prefs (no file found), tried to delete any new fonts that were uploaded recently (unsure how to locate all of them) and still not able to open and view my files/designs that were save as PSD. I downloaded the CS6 for a free 30 day trial to see if it would open, and yes it opened. if I purchase the CS6 will it freeze up as well? I was unsure if I purchased another version of Photoshop if it would be a waste of money and not open.
I am trying out the free trial of LR4. My OS is Windows 7. The program is constantly freezing up and posting "Not Responding" at the top of my screen. I really dolike the program and would like to purchase it at the end of the trial, but only if the "Not Responding" stops.
I've been using the photoshop for a little bit, everything was fine, then like many others i've got it hanging on the "reading global text resources" line. However, i've found the explainations on the adobe site, and several other forums. However, i CANNOT find the file that its telling me to look for. Im currently running a Vista 64bit.
They've said to find it in application settings, however i think on my computer it is program settings, which i found but there is no folder for Photoshop Just Acrobat and Updater.
Windows 7, had everything working fine. Added SSD and installed system from scratch on SSD. Old drive is now my second drive. Â Trying to put the scratch disk on the second (old) drive to reduce wear on the SSD. But every time I do, I get the disk error message and it erases all my settings (so annoying!) Â I figure it's a permissions thing since I've had to deal with that already to some degree, but I don't know how to fix it since I don't know where adobe is trying to save the scratch file.
Well yesterday, I was using photoshop and everything was just fine but when I tried to open it today it began to freeze after the startup where it tells you what its loading...'Reading Text Global Resources' and i've looked around here in different topics and posts and i tried doing ALT+CTRL+SHIFT but that didnt work at all for me..
the whole thing just stops responding if i try to click into it and now its driving me crazy since I have a template due for a client of mine today!
Just did a Photomerge of 25 shots.Note that over 100 GB (yes, you read that right, GIGAbytes) of scratch disk was required, not to mention easily filling my 16 GB RAM.
I have the following custom-built lightroom and photoshop machine:
-Windows 8 64-bit -8092 Mb 1600Mhz RAM -Intel i7 2600k Quadcore processor with 8 logical processors running at 4Ghz -Corsair SSD that stores Lightroom catalog. Â When I am creating 1:1 previews from a Nikon D800 (Huge 74Mb RAW files) Lightroom only uses about 25% of my CPU power (sometimes it tops out at around 50% for a second) and about 3.3GBs of RAM which results in relatively slow performance. Why isnt Lightroom using more resources? It barely is using the workhorse components I put in this machine. Ive added a screenshot from the performance monitor during the generation of 500+ 1:1 previews. Â Generating 500+ Full 14bit RAW files from the D800 could surely benefit from using the computers' full computing capabilities?
I just built a new editing system and am exporiting a new project and my cpu sits at 58-65% usage and gpu at 2-6%. Ram usage is about 8GB. The file is from dslr .MOV clips to H.264 MP4 export, 1080P 30FPS 20Mbps CBR. Total lenght 6min 20 sec with warp stabilizer, contrast, sharpening filter, and neat video applied.As far as I know all of those effects are CUDA accelerated.Media is on my Raid 0 Segregate 3TB x2 drive (about 350 Read/Write) Scratch is on 120gb ssd drive, OS and Adobe CC on 240GB SSD. Both ssd's 500 read/write. Exporting to either os drive or raid 0 has no difference. Export time is about 25 min. Â Are there any optimizations I need to do to speed things up or is this normal? I ran PPBM7 yesterday and sent in the info. I got the following results from the output file,
I/O time = 111 Sec 334.16 MB/S , h.264 Timeline = 208 Seconds, MPE gain 461/18=25.6 . Â Below are PC specs. Everything is stock, not overclocked yet. Â 4930k, gtx titan black , 32gb ram 1866 , 650watt 80gold psu, 240 ssd os, 120 Ssd scratch, 6tb raid 0 for media, win 8.1 , premeire CC.
I plan to reuse many images and vector arts I've created. As of now, if I want to reuse an image or vector, i have to oepn the file and copy/paste image vector. Is there a faster way than this? Is there a manager I do not know of?
I am having in Photoshop CS2. I have had CS2 for over 2 years and have never had this problem. I am not able to open Photoshop CS2. I am getting a message that reads "Could not initialize Photoshop because a required resources text file is missing. It goes through a series of " could not load default contours, styles, custom shaphes because the file could not be found" before getting to the "initialize" window.
I'd like to be able to queue up a set of processes using Inventor's task scheduler. Â Ideally I'd be able to queue it, leave, and have it done in the morning.
The process is this:
1. Â Check Inventor dwg files out from vault 2. Â migrate files to 2013 3. Â Run drawing resource transfer wizard 4. Â Check files back in 5. Â Export all files to AutoCAD dwg format
How can I queue step 3 to run through task scheduler? Â DRTW is not an option in the task scheduler. I'll be giving it the same settings to use every time.
I am attempting to create a series of drawing templates in Inventor 2013.
I have successfully created four unique Sheet Formats with Border, Title Blocks, Revision Table, and text populated by iProperties.
I have a bunch of text that I want to have inside a square on the first page of a series of drawings. I draw the square in sketch mode, Create Sheet Format, and the sketch ends up as a separate AutoCAD Block ("SheetTemplates_XXX_Sketch1") rather than in the Sheet Format. I can place the block on the new sheet, but it can be placed anywhere as the block floats.
it seems PS CS6 has a crashing problem and no one seems to have a solid cause. That's happening to me so I thought I would post the crash report to see. Â I've heard that font conflicts can ometimes cause this, but it happens no matter what I'm doing....font, no font, large files, small files, etc. Â I'm on an iMac Version 10.6.8 3.4 GHz Intel i7 8GB RAM 164 GB free on desktop HD
Whenever I open a document a document (large size / small size / lots of layers / very few layers) photoshop opens the document, about 70% of the file previews and the Mac rainbow wheel starts spinning and Photoshop becomes entirely unresponsive.
CS 6, just updated.Running on an iMac 3.4 ghz Intel Core i7, 16 g ram, tones of scratch disc.PS opens and I can do the work but when I save and move on to something else, it crashes everytime. I have sent 7 crash reports to Adobe today.
I am running Vista 32 on a 15" MacBook Pro through Bootcamp.I installed CS4 and available updates, and even updated my video driver -- i am using an Nvidia GeForce 9600M GT.My problem is that Photoshop crashes frequently during such benign tasks as dragging guides, creating new layers, etc, thus rendering the software unusable. I've searched everywhere for known issues, followed the troubleshooting steps on Adobe's OpenGL and GPU support pages but nothing's seemed to work.
Each time I open CS4 and the initial image I get this message, "Photoshop has encountered a problem with the display driver, and has temporarily disabled GPU enhancements. Check the video card manufacturer's website for the latest software."
I'm writing to the Adobe Forum because GeForce feels they are not the cause of the problem. Here is what I've done toward resolving this problem: As a side note let me add here that after upgrading CS2 to CS4 this error message appeared religiously. That caused me to purchased an Nvidia GeForce 9600 GT display adapter w/ 512mb memory.
Prior to installing the new card I downloaded their newest drivers for this card after removing the old drivers. Originally I had a GeForce 7600 card. The error message continued with the new card. I've searched the settings within CS4 trying to find an option that would resolve the problem. This machine has a new motherboard, a D945GNT Intel board. It will support 64-bit however I'm currently running XP Pro 32-bit, SP3.
I was creating a digital scrapbook page this morning, and as I went to save, CS6 crashed without warning (as it does 50% of the time for me when I have a project I am working on). Usually, I go to save, or open a new file to work with and the whole program just shuts off on me without a word. It is simply there one second and gone the next. If I am lucky, it has recovered something of what I have done in the past 10 minutes. HOWEVER today, it crashed, and when I opened it back up, it recovered half of what I had done and immediately crashed again, giving me this error message:   Problem signature:  Problem Event Name:   APPCRASH  Application Name:   Photoshop.exe  Application Version:   13.0.1.0  Application Timestamp:   5022da9d  Fault Module Name:   ntdll.dll  Fault Module Version:   6.1.7601.17725  Fault Module Timestamp:   4ec4aa8e  Exception Code:   c0000005  Exception Offset:   0000000000027b11  OS Version:   6.1.7601.2.1.0.768.3  Locale ID:   1033  Additional Information 1:   9e05  Additional Information 2:   9e057b49cc84a2b32beb0976b9fa1666  Additional Information 3:   9357  Additional Information 4:   9357da59a0d0124ba1ff6db7da3265ac  Read our privacy statement online: [URL]   This is the first time I have had this happen with an error message. Usually it just closes up altogether and I have to reopen and redo my projects from wherever the last save point was. I have my recovery set to 10 minutes because I seem to lose my files so often when trying to save. This is getting a bit ridiculous and I did NOT have this problem even one time with the CS6 Beta.Â
Ever since I've installed PS CC it has crashed several times per day. I've installed 14.1.2, and the crashes still persist.  The viewport always fails to rerender at some point when I'm zooming in or out or have changed layers. The scenerios differ, but it always has to do with a needed graphics refresh. On some occasions the crash dialog will not appear until I attempt to save (knowing that's already crashed, but hoping...). I have used Photoshop since (I believe) version 2. CC is the worst release I have ever seen.  AMD Phenom II X4 945 Processort 3.00 GHz 8.00 GB 64-bit Win 7  Problem signature:  Problem Event Name:         APPCRASH  Application Name:         Photoshop.exe  Application Version:         14.1.2.427  Application Timestamp:         524002c6  Fault Module Name:         Photoshop.exe [code]...
A major part of my workflow on CS2 involved cutting and pasting files, renaming files and deleting files in Bridge.
Now with my new installation of CS4 everytime I try to move anything Bridge will quit! I'm also having problems after deleting NEF files in ACR when returming to Bridge as they do not remove theirselves every time. Navigating out a folder then back in sometimes works, other times it causes a crash.
Any advice? I can't even revert back to CS2 as my Nikon D3 files don't work on it!
I noticed sometimes, well more often now when I go to save for the web and hit the "save" button to select my directory it will automatically try to save the image as .html instead of .jpg which is already selected? 7.0 bug? It is very rare this happens but it is becoming more frequent now.
Photoshop has never acted like this before. I opened a file and simply removed the lock on the layer. Then the image is gone and left with a transparent layer.
Then I tried importing video to layers and then this happened.I have restarted my computer , updated photoshop and even updated the operating system.
Everytime I use Photoshop CS4 (11.0.2) on my MacBook Pro with Retina display (OS X 10.8.2, 2.6GHz Intel Core i7), the software randomly keeps on crashing without warning. There is no specific thing that I do that makes it crash. I just edit an image like I usually do on Photoshop such as moving objects, creating new layers, and clicking on different sets of tools and the program crashes. Â I haven't done much work on it recently but I sometimes also had trouble saving Photoshop files. I don't remember exactly but whenever I save, a error message pops up and tells me that I cannot save the file; saving with a different file name works but I have to constantly make "file1.psd, file2.psd, file3.psd" to aviod the error message. Â I haven't tried out my other CS4 Web Preimium softwares on my new MacBook yet and don't have the install disk for it right now since I forgot to bring it with me to study abroad so I can't try reinstalling it.
I have a client who asked for a SPECIFIC shade of blue which happens to be 100,70,0,0. Now I know my screen will never show the exact color, always shows lighter. This part is ok. But I go and change the values on the color picker, and then 10 minutes later when I come back to it, the values changed to 95,65,1,0. Why would this happen, it KEEPS happening and not just one one color, on ALL OF THEM, it just changes the numbers slightly fromw hat I put in.
Photoshop CS6 is extremely unstable for me when I try and do any 3D editing. It crashes when I try to move, scale, and otherwise orient the object. It crashes when I try to do Snap to Ground Plane. When it doesn't crash at Snap to Ground Plane, the command doesn't work and nothing snaps to the ground plane. Â Here's a 1 minute video of it crashing. The first part shows that I've already defined the ground plane. The second part shows me wanting to put a peice of furniture into the room and finding the Snap to Ground Plane option. When I click it, the program crashes. Â [URL] Â I already have the latest drivers for my HD 5650, and I can't upgrade my video card because it's a laptop. Â Any options short of spending $1000+ to get a new video card? Â Screenshots of my preferences - if I disable the use of my graphics processor I no longer have any 3D functionality in Photoshop, if I set my drawing mode to Advanced and place checkmarks on things it crashes as well: Â [URL] Â Â System Info: Â Adobe Photoshop Version: 13.0 (13.0 20120315.r.428 2012/03/15:21:00:00) x32 Operating System: Windows 7 64-bit Version: 6.1 System architecture: Intel CPU Family:6, Model:5, Stepping:5 with MMX, SSE Integer, SSE FP, SSE2, SSE3, SSE4.1, SSE4.2, HyperThreading
