I use a Mac Pro 2x2.66 Dual Core Xeon tower with 15 GB Ram and OS 10.7.5. CS6 (always the latest update) is becoming very "buggy". It starts slowing way down, then does things like sharpening changes in ACR disappear when the photo is opened as a file in Photoshop, and other random little failures. Resetting preferences in both Bridge and Photoshop doesn't fix it. The only thing that works is re-installing CS-6.
View 1 RepliesAll of a sudden, my crop tool doesnt function correctly. I used to drag it down and across, giving me complete control of the area to crop. When I released the mouse, it left me with the area to crop with drag points so I could 'bump' tiny adjustments. Now when I drag it straight down I get no vertical axis at all. Then if I move it horizontally, I get the vertical I dragged it to but to get the horizontal I need, I have to drag it diagonally but I end up with way too much vertical. When I release, there are no drag points for up/down/left/right, only points at the corners to drag horizontally. What the heck happened and how do I fix it?
View 7 Replies View RelatedI'm experiencing frequent freezes on PS (CS6, 13.0 x64) when first using it each day. Rest of the time it seems to run very quick and beautifully. But most days I'm finding in the first five or ten minutes of using it, PS just stops. It then takes perhaps five minutes to do anything and if I have used the history brush or resized or anything while it was still fuctioning ok, then there is a frantic catch-up by PShop while it runs through all those unseen movements in one go.
Â
Oddly, it won't allow any selections or painting or anything but it does seem to allow you to still look at pull-down menus (even though they don't respond if selected). So, an unusual type of freeze, not a total lock-out, just rendering it useless. Quitting (when it allows me to) seems to revive it and then I seem to be able to work ok.

Am on a new iMac with 3 TB Fusion drive - just wondering (worried) it is something to do with that perhaps? All my other CS apps working ok (I use Indesign constantly).
Since the AVCHD format is really buggy (try putting text overlays exporting in AVCHD mode--the result is horrendous), what mode actually offers consistent 60fps, if any? Or does Corel not officially support 60fps?
The blu-ray modes will output a file that flipflops back and forth between 30fps and 60fps.
The HDV modes do the same thing.
And since I can't adjust the project properties to ANYTHING HD (they've crippled being able to do that), I can't adjust any sliders, it's all about selecting one of these modes. So which one offers a true 60fps in HD besides AVCHD which is buggy?
I have a video recording of an event with not so good audio, but also a separate high quality audio recording. The problem is that the audio recordign speed is not the perfect match to the video recording, and when I put them in overlap, audio runs about 2-3 seconds quicker than the video by the end; seems real bad.
the obvious solution is to adjust the speed of the audio to match the length of the video; sounds easy.
One small problem is that the audio recording and the video recording were not perfectly synced, so the audio has some superfluous part at the end, so all in all the situation is as below:
Video track length: 1:57:16
Audio track length 2:14:20 with a lot of wasted part at the end
Current length of the Desirable Audio track: 1:55:15; this is the part which should in fact finish at 1:57:16 to match the video.
Below is what I did:
1- Clipped the audio at 1:55:15, Let us call the first part of the audio (the desirable one) Audio A, and the remaining part, Audio B
2- Deleted Audio B from the audio track
3- Pressed shift and dragged Audio to match the length of the video hoping that it will speed the audio track perfectly to cover the 2 seconds gap
4- Played the audio clip to see if it worked; Result: weird. Instead of keeping the track contents as it is and only changing the speed, it somehow resurrected some contents from the Audio B. I thought I had deleted that . So now it plays the same length as the video, but with added audio contents at the end, so the problem remains where it was.
5- Pressed undo, to instead try the Speed / time-lapse dialog on Audio A. Right clicked audio A, clicked on Speed / Time-lapse and entered the time for which it should play directly.
6- played the audio clip to see if it worked; Result: same as 4.
7- Pressed undo again, and tried reducing the speed this time instead of entering the exact time manually. Even 99% stretched the video way beyond the length of the video (as I expected) but strangely enough the contents from the deleted Audio B are still appended at the end.
8- This time tried to shrink the stretched audio to the length of the video by using Shift+drag. And it works perfectly for the stretched clip, but that had the audio contents from Audio B anyway. So the result is exactly the same as 4 & 6
.
9- Trying to delete the unwanted audio bits at the end of Audio A from Audio B, and then stretching the Audio A to the right length actually reduces the Audio A further down, deleting some part of the wanted audio too :S ... thus just turning the problem upside down ..

View 3 Replies View RelatedThe problem I'm having with X5 is that whenever I try to save something, or open a file...I get the (not responding) message at the top of the page. Some times it will clear itself out and open or save the file, a sometimes it will just close the program.
This happens primarily in Draw....cause that's what I use the most...but has happened in Photo-Paint as well to me. 8gb of memory...so that's not the problem, and when I check for updates...it's the most current update/SP as well. It's always slow to open as well. Only about 400 fonts installed too.
I am having very frequent recoverable errors - havent seen any pattern but happens in veiws and mostly editing operations. I am filling in the error reports and there must be quite a collection now of mine.

Furthermore, I can't reverse the zoom direction by holding Alt.I've reset my preferences to the factory default by deleting Adobe Photoshop X64 CS6 Prefs.psp from the user settings, this does not seem to solve the problem.
Â
There is an exception to the above; sometimes (not always) I can selections on a fresh start of Photoshop. This ability is lost as soon as I use any other tool. it doesn't seem as if another application 'steals focus', as I can always select other tools by using their shortcuts; that would not be possible if PS wouldn't have focus.

When i open my psd file it says that the some text layers might need to be update. When i press the update button i get the message "Selected font failed during last operation.

I have create the PSD file using the trail version of Adobe Photoshop CS6 (downloaded from adobe.com). That trail has expired so i have just purhased Photosop CS 6 (from adobe.com). Before installing the version i purhased, i uninstalled the trail version.

I dont understand this. It the same computer and the font is a system font that comes with the OS (Windows). I cannot create any new text layers.

Anyway, I googled it and "delete the mayafolder and restart Maya, thus creating a new mayafolder automatically" came up and so I did, it didnt work. The next solution apparently was to export eveything into a new scene, but only a third of my stuff is IN the scene so that doesnt work at all (yes i tried anyway).The last thing I did in the scene before I closed it down for the weekend, was to import about 10 nCloth flags into the scene. Disabling them all ofcourse, but still, that might be the reason it's crashing, I dont know.

I am having an issue with saving our own dwg file in inventor 2014 & 2014.
When I open a new one of our dwg template files and try to say I get an error that says
"the current operation requires data from document 'xxx' but it cannot be found"
This doesnt happen when trying to save an inventor dwg template file and it has only happened since releases 2013 & 2014. If I open one of our files that was created before release 2013 I can save these with no problem.
I was hoping the issue would resolve itself when upgrading to 2014, but It hasnt, so it must be in a setting that I migrated across.
We have other users using 2013 and are not experiencing the same problem. In fact if they save one of our template files on their machine I am then able to open and save it on my machine!
When I am working on several drawngs at the same time, I use the Publish command to plot them as a group. However to save the settings as a DSD file for future use, every open file needs to be saved. Why is this? Is there a way to disable that requirement?
There is no reason I can think of besides "by design" for this. The DSD file is only a list of drawings and their plot settings and is not dpendent in any way I can think of, to whether or not one its drawings is open and not saved.
I have a simple iPart, with driven parameters Length and Width. When length changes (from a multi-value list), the spacing on a pattern and the number of occurrences of that pattern also change.
Invariably, it requires a rebuild. Occasionally, it requires two rebuilds. As this part is in a second-level subassembly, opening the part, rebuilding it, then rebuilding its assembly, then rebuilding the top-level is consumptive.
I've been using iLogic and iParts for about a week now, so I might be missing something basic. File attached.
