Photoshop :: CC Seems To Be Totally Unstable
Nov 16, 2013
Open image in ACR make a few adjustments then open in photoshop as a smart object. Copy the background layer and change it to soft light adjust opacity to 20% save the image and then try to add a levels layer. After adjusting the levels photoshop quits. Also cropped the image after copying the background layer. This seems to be a new problem. I think there has been an update to photoshop since I last used it. Windows 7, 32 bit, 3gb memory, 4 processor cpu.

Photoshop CS4 CS5 or CS6 is the only program that is unstable with pen pressure sensitivity, all the other programs work flawlessly (zbrush, art rage, sketchbook, painter, mypaint, etc).
In Photoshop if the stroke is fast enough it will draw the line normally and with pressure, but if the line is drawn slowly it will make 100% pressure just like a mouse behaves. Here's an example of brush strokes, the black ones are the slow strokes that don't register pressure sensitivity.
This topic has been covered in these 3 posts "Wacom Intuos4 + PS CS4 Pressure problem", ""Pressure Sensitivity Problem with Wacom Bamboo Pen Tablet in Windows 7" and "CS4 32bit & Wacom Intuos 3 - Intermittent Pressure Sensitivity"
The evident solution for Windows 7 is disabling the "Press and Hold" feature on "Pen and Touch" settings, But in Windows 8 disabling this check only makes Photoshop unresponsive to pressure to the extreme that not even a single stroke can be drawn. Only random dots with no direction or pressure sensitivity. This is a big no .
My computer is a Motion LE 1700 tablet that works with Wacom Tablet PC Drivers, there's only a single driver released for Windows 8 which is ISD_DualTouch_710-8.
Older Windows 7 drivers for Wacom Tablet PC don't recognize the pen. And default drivers from the Motion Computing website don't work with Photoshop.
An in all, the 8 ISD_DualTouch_710-8 driver works flawlessly with all my apps with the exception of Photoshop, causing the weird intermittent sensitivity behavior.

I've created a personalized invoice form in which I integrated a Microsoft Excel from to it. Ever since the version I integrated my Excel forms it has always been an issue.
When I integrate a Microsoft Excel form in CorelDRAW and apply changes to it, the form doesn't retain its size and emplacement. The change VERY slightly, but still ALWAYS change.

I am trying to edit lighting styles for models in the edit wondow (not studio). On one only or several assembly models at once I am finding that the Style & Stnd/Lighting Editor has stability issues during editing.
After a number of edits to light settings using the scroll bars to change the lighting location, various buttons start to dissapear or turn black & the dialog fails to function, sometimes locking up Inventor.
Only solution is to close down & restart Inventor. Subsequent attempts to reopen & do it again result in same behavior if not worse.

I currently have both PS CS4 and CS5 installed on my Windows Vista PC.I would like to totally remove CS5, and replace it with CS6.I understand that Adobe has a "tool" to entirely uninstall CS5.Where can I download this "tool", and are there any other issues that I should be aware of?

Working in assemblies with multi-solid parts or parts with derived geometry generates unstable environments with multiple crashes per day. Some crashes don't even prompt a crash report. This has been going on through multiple versions of Inventor up til 2012 which I am currently using now. Has or will this ever be addressed?

I have been using Photoshop 7 for years on my Vista home premium laptop, with no problems. Now suddenly, today it has started crashing on startup and, worse, locking windows when it does so. I get a windows has stopped working error. I restart and if I try again with PS7 I get a similar result but now windows locks up totally and I have to push the power button to get out of it.
I have already tried uninstalling PS and reinstalling, but I get exactly the same effect.

When I use any marking tool (Pencil, eraser, everything except pen, text, and gradient) the results are totally clear. YES, my opacity is on 100 percent. My color is black. But nothing seems to happen to my work when I try to scribble with the brush over it. The eraser doesn't erase. Et cetera.
Photoshop seems to think it does, though. I can 'undo' any completely invisible marks I have made.
I've reset photoshop to factory settings, and it's still doing this.

How do I create a new palette of swatches? I know how to add a swatch color, but how do I create an entirely new "partition" of my own swatches?
For instance, look at this picture here:
See the "ANPA colors" "DIC Color Guide" etc?
How do I create a new preset where I can enter my swatches into so that it doesn't get crowded?

I've recently tried using the Photoshop HDR feature. I have selected three different exposures in Lightroom and chose to merge them as an HDR image. All went well until the preview. I've found some settings that work really well. I've decided to go for the 16-bit path, not using Lightroom's 32-bit image capability, and let Photoshop do the tone mapping for now.
Here's what my preview image and the entire tool window looks like: [URL]
And this is the result one step later. It's totally over-saturated and has other merge errors. It basically doesn't even look similar to the preview. What's the preview good for if it doesn't show what I'll get? How should I decide what setting works good if I can't see it? [URL]
This is Photoshop CS6 x64 on Windows 7 SP1. The source images are 16-bit TIFFs as they were exported by Lightroom.

PS CS2. 4 GB Ram 500 GB HD, Win Vista Home Premium.
When I create a duplicate or other layer and try to clear portions of the layer, using a mask: I do not get a clear removal. There is an outline of maybe 1 to 3% that will not clear no matter how many times I go over it. I am using 100% Opacity and 100% flow.
seems to have started by itself. But who knows?? I have been on the road for the past 4 months and recently arrived back home and started to work on my photos. Computer had been shut off while away.

How do I totally delete mobile albums from the organizer? Having the "in Revel library" tag on all my photos creates extra clutter. It would also be nice to be able to totally disable the Revel agent without having to rename the executable.
More background is that I have an very large library (over 25,000 files) and Revel was not able to successfully synchronize it. Also, the agent created a directory in my catalog file structure that contained copies of original files, therefore using additional disk space.

If I import a picture to Adobe Photoshop Elements, the quality of the pictures lowers extremely as soon as it appears in Elements (drag & drop or by open it regularly). The lines/boarders are totally pixeled - why?

Tried to animate in new maya? If I make a simplest animation like 24 frames long, where is a skeleton with 1 root and 3 more bones...so:
1-st frame - starting pose
24-th frame - starting pose

I've attached before and after images. The "after" image was created using Layer > Transparency > Add Alpha Channel, and the using the Magic Wand to select the areas for deletion.
When I place the image on a webpage, it is completely transparent!

Here is a strange problem since this morning. The text wrapping window is totally empty! I don't have any setting options anymore.
Yesterday, everything was OK but not today. I don't understand why and I don't know what to dot. I restarted InDesign and the computer but nothing changed. The other setting windows are OK.

I'm using 1920*1080 jpg images (frame captured from video) (but it seems i can have the same problem when i use bigger photos)
I'm editing them on a mac laptop (MPB), with a 1440*900 screen, in fullscreen mode, but with the editing column on the right side. So while i edit them, my images are about 1000pixels wide or a bit more. (It's fine for me since it's for being viewed on computers)
I apply a light grain but then i can't really see it in Library module or when i export the jpg... It appears that the Grain is actually rendered much more present in Develop Mode than in Library module. (When i zoom on the image to 100% then it's the same, but i don't want to edit my pictures in 100%...)
See crop of the images here, Develop Module on top, Library module bellow:
[URL]
This bug is really annoying because all my NR/Grain fine ajusts on my pictures are wrong when i then export my pictures. So for now, the only workarounds are either to take 'screenshots' of my pictures while i'm in Develop Module using cmd-shift-4!! (This is what i'm doing at the moment, but then i would also have like to have them in bigger resolution) or i would have to switch continually to Library module while editing my photos....

I have noticed my levels box is all black, no curve lines visable. I have tried my own CD jpegs as well as the sample art included in 7.0.
What has happened? Is there anyway to correct the problem? The imput levels are the standard 0, 1.00, & 255. But no lines, just total blackness. Any ideas?

Consider the following situation.
Ortho - ON
Polar - OFF
A line is drawn parellel to the X-axis. What I have been doing all of my career to lengthen this line, by say 3 inches, is select the line, pick the grip I want to lengthen, drag that grip in the general X direction, type the value 3 at the command promt, and hit enter. Voila, done.
Now what AutoCAD is doing, is bringing the grip (yup, ortho is stll on) to exactly where my curser is, totally disregarding the ortho setting AND the value in typing at the comand prompt.

Version: Photoshop CS (1)
Computer: Pentium 2.4 gHz dual core
4 Gigs Ram
Nvidia 7950 video card Win XP Home
I started to get this strange error with my Photoshop when making a new document in Photoshop and got the following error: "cannot initiate Photoshop because Photoshop cannot create any more windows".
I thought the easiest thing to do would be to reinstall (Photoshop needs reinstalling extremely often unfortunately), but now when I try and open the program it just give an alert beep and closes back up. Even though I rarely use ImageReady, I opened that up to check and it does the same behavior.

Can anyone tell me what color settings I need to set in photoshop in order to avoid this from happening? It only happens once in a while and I don't know what I've done to fix it or screw it up. What happens is that when I'm in photoshop and I do a "save for web" my document jumps to image ready and when viewing '2 up' for optimization purposes and comparison, I realize that the original view is actually duller in color and does not look like the original in photoshop. The blacks are definitely not as black.

when I got my first Macintosh IICX and all of my MacPaint clip art. I don't want to get rid of the clip art because since I'm still using a black ink printer and not upgrading to a color one, the clip art looks nice in newsletters and the like.
Up until this time I had been using SuperPaint which had the New Superbits editing plug-in to refine the pictures so they had the smoother and cleaner lines instead of looking jagged. With my new computer and printer, I'm also getting Photoshop CS packaged with Adobe Creative Suite Premium, which I have never used before. Since I have not received my order yet, I was wondering if anyone could tell me whether Photoshop has the capability of improving the older MacPaint clip art like SuperPaint did with the New SuperBits editing plug-in. Over the past two days, I have been trying like crazy to back-up my pictures with SuperPaint and then re-saving them with Graphic Converter. It's been so incredibly slow that I thought I would go ahead and ask you, the experts, if Photoshop can also improve the quality of my older MacPaint clip art or if I should continue to back-up my clip art like I have been doing.

I have just got back from the Elbow gig and pulled the images off the card. They load up in Bridge but don't have actual picture thumbnails. They are named correctly, ie: IMG_3483.CR2 but they won't open!? Error message says 'Could not complete your request because Photoshop does not recognise this type of file'
I could see them on the back of the camera.
mac users... i did a software update the other day and I noticed that there was an update for ACR. Could it have been something to do with that? And why can't I find ACR in my Applications?

of Adobe Photoshop v6.0.1 (quite old, I know, but it do all I want and on my old HW I did not plan/want to use any more recent version, because they are HUGE and with just a little preferences trick, I did not need to reinstall my PS - ever ), yet as Czech user, I need my software to type some special characters as well. These are looking like this:
[URL]...
Now the only problem is, that some of them PS just refuse to type. Seven small and seven caps are just wrong. See the line "for PS:"...
I battled the problem even by editing the fonts itsels, because that seems to work with Adobe Illustrator, yet this also cause the edited fonts to be useless in another programs. So I looked deeply and in the Adobe settings in directory Fonts / Reqrd are directory CMaps and perhaps editing the character map used will be better and usable solution? how to do it or even determine with file from the 96 files in the CMaps directory are right now used by Adobe Photoshop?
