I just installed the trial version of CS4 on a Dell Optiplex 745 running XP SP3 with a Radeon X1300 (with latest drivers) and HP2465 monitor. I have also installed LR 2.1 on the same machine a while ago and it works flawlessly. I have huge issues with the CS4 trial version.
1. when i open CS4, when I click on file, almost all the entries are greyed out - except for Import, Automate and Scripts. even Exit is greyed out. if I click on Automate and get back, I can do normal operations like open, open in bridge, etc.
2. when i click on the spot healing brush tool, CS4 crashes. Error signature says AppName: photoshop.exe, ModName: icm32.dll.
3. when i go to smart sharpen, in the magnified view, there is no change if i move any of the sliders. all i see is a flicker.
4. When I try to edit in CS4 from LR2.1, CS4 opens but it does not open the image file.
i find CS4 very flaky. i doubt it is the software as a ton of people are using CS4 successfully. I suspect the problem is with my confifuration - most likely display controller related.
Until this is resolved, i will go back to CS3 which works flawlessly on the same machine.
Does the ATI GPU Radeon 9600 XT compatible with CS4? Even after I have installed the last driver 9.3, I cannot turn on the Open GL in CS4 preferences.I know that video card is Open GL 2.0 and Shader 2.0 compatible.
Im buying a new video card for my Photoshop PC, and Im trying to figure out if Photoshop supports GPU acceleration on both Nvidia and Radeon cards. Ive heard in the past that it only supported CUDA (Nvidia). I currently use CS5, but will update to CS6 at some point.
When I first installed Photoshop and tried Automate to put watermarks on my photos, everything worked fine. I gave that a break for a few months and today was trying to watermark some new photos. Since then there has been a driver update for my AMD Radeon HD 7900 to the Catalyst 12.8 drivers. I have the latest Photoshop downloaded from the website. Â Now when I try to use Automate and Batch, it starts then crashes abruptly. I've exhausted all efforts and have Googled for hours. I've tried uninstalling drivers to the 12.6 version of Catalyst, uninstalled Photoshop, reinstalled. Same problem. Under Performance, the Sniffer detects an error in the display driver. Some have suggested using software to sweep for old driver files. That's the only thing I haven't tried. Â I know people had the same issue as this, but had to do with TWAIN but I don't have a scanner installed. I'm using Windows 7 64-Bit on an Intel Core i7-2700K Â Here's the system info: Â Adobe Photoshop Version: 13.0 (13.0 20120315.r.428 2012/03/15:21:00:00) x64 Operating System: Windows 7 64-bit Version: 6.1 Service Pack 1 System architecture: Intel CPU Family:6, Model:10, Stepping:7 with MMX, SSE Integer, SSE FP, SSE2, SSE3, SSE4.1, SSE4.2, HyperThreading Physical processor count: 4 Logical processor count: 8 Processor speed: 3500 MHz
I just upgraded to Photoshop CS6. In anticipation of this new version, I upgraded to a new graphics card, ATI Radeon HD 5770, in my first slot. I have my main monitor, which is a Cintiq 21UX, plugged into that card. I still have two older graphics cards, both NVIDIA GeForce 7300 GTs, in slots #2 and 4.Â
I have two Apple monitors connected to the card in slot #4. When I first opened the program I received a message stating "Photoshop detected graphics hardware that is not officially supported". I checked under Preferences-Performance and it is only detecting my NVIDIA GeForce 7300 GT and the "Use Graphics Processor" box is checked.Â
The new Radeon graphics card is not detected. I checked the list of Adobe tested GPUs and, if I read it correctly, it is listed as one of the approved cards. I'm working on a 2 x 3 GHz Dual-Core Intel Xeon Mac running OS Lion version 10.7.3.Â
I have a iMac with a ATI Radeon HD 4670 GPU. In CS6 the 3D mode is grayed out and disable due to driver for GPU needing to be updated. When directed to manufacturer website for driver update, all drivers are for Windows, not Mac.Â
Have I missed the hardware requirement of using on Nvidia Cuda based graphical card in my system? All the new blurfilters are causing a graphical cards break down. What happens is that Photoshop keeps running but the screen turns completely black. You have to close the application in the taskmanager. Â I'm running Windows 7 64 bits and CS6 master edition. System is completely uptodate and all drivers have been checked.
Will the AMD Radeon 7770 for Windows be supported for CS6? The Adobe specs do not list it for CS6 but do list all the AMD cards for CS5 through the 6000 series.
I installed CS4 on my Windows XP system. I immediately updated all the components to the latest versions. When I tried to run CS4, I got repeated error messages about GPU problems. When I tried to open Preferences, CS4 crashed, but only on the General and Performance tabs. I called tech support and they suggested getting the latest drivers for my video card. I did that (for one of my two video cards) and now I can run CS4, but no OpenGL.

I was able to update the video driver for the Radeon 3850 card, but there is nothing new for the Radeon 9250 card. With the newer Radeon 3850 driver, I can now run CS4, but in Preferences > Performance, the GPU setting is now grayed out for Enable OpenGL Drawing and it says "No GPU options available with Photoshop Standard."
When I remove the Radeon 9250 card and just use the Radeon 3850 card, the Enable OpenGL option is there and CS4 runs with it enabled. I conclude from this that the Radeon 9250 card and its driver don't support what CS4 needs, but the Radeon 3850 card and driver do.
I use two video cards because I use Colorvision Spyder3 Elite to calibrate and profile my two monitors, and it is my understanding that I need two cards to separately profile each monitor.
Questions:
1) What features in CS4 am I missing by running it with OpenGL Drawing disabled? CS4 seems to work similarly to CS3 when I edit an image, so maybe I don't need OpenGL... just wondering what OpenGL would give me.
2) Can someone recommend a video card that will run CS4 with OpenGL ... AND ... that will allow dual monitors to each be profiled separately? Or, perhaps I can simply replace the Radeon 9250 PCI card with a newer card that supports OpenGL. Suggestions?
3) I do not have the latest BIOS for my motherboard. Would updating the BIOS help with the OpenGL issue, or is this just a video card/driver issue? My system runs perfectly so I hesitate to update the BIOS -- if it ain't broke, don't fix it.
My graphics card is dying. To be exact, the fan on my old Radeon 4650 card is making strange noises from time to time and when it does, the temperature on the card goes up. It is time for a replacement. Â After looking at the various cards, I settled on the Sapphire 100356OCL Radeon HD 7790 OC 1GB DDR5 PCI-Express Video Card seen here:[URL]...\
Beside normal display tasks, I have two programs that use Open CL on the graphics card - Photoshop CS5 and WinZip. any Radeon 7790 based card with Photoshop CS5? If so, have you encountered any difficulties with Open CL activated in CS5?
I'm having a lot of glitchy problems with Photoshop CS6. I believe it's because of the graphics card. The image keeps disappearing and reappearing as I make adjustments, the Waccom table controls (for sizing brushes) suddenly stops working. When I touch the Waccom pen to tablet the cursor turns into a spinning tarus. I reboot, and it's OK for a little while, then starts acting up again. I've changed the Graphics Processor Settings from Advanced, to Normal, to Basic. Same problem no matter what.
I'm running on Windows 8. Intel i5 processors. The program is loaded on an SSD drive. The scratch disk is 3 TB so it shouldn't be a memory/space issue. The card driver is up to date.
i've looked on the radeon website to see if there are any driver updates for the radeon 7750 card.it has all updates for the 700 series but not the 7750. Any link for 7750 driver update.i've had cs6 extended for 4 months and ive not really used it because of the problems im having.gone back to using my old cs5 extended which i have no problems at all.
I just put in a new Radeon 5770 card (PCI slot 1) into my Mac Pro 2008 Quad Core which is running Photoshop CS3. Now, the cursor (on all tools) disappears when mousing over any open PDS document. In Indesign, the cursor for all tools shows and works - as well as other pragrams.Â
I am considering a computer with a Radeon HD 7670M 1GB GDDR5, I believe. Will this be sufficient for previewing HD video without more than, say, 5 seconds of lag? Â P.S. I think previewing is mainly GPU-based, but if needed, I am running the Intel i5 3570 processor.
I have AutoCAD 2013, and my laptop specs are as follows: Intel I7 Processor12 GB RAMATI Radeon 7670M HD Graphics Card Whenever I start AutoCAD with the Radeon graphics card installed and enabled, it crashes giving me the following error:
Fatal Error: Unhandled Access Violation Reading 0x0020 Exception at 5d79264dh
However, the moment I disable the graphics card from the device manager, AutoCAD works fine. I tried installing the latest drivers and everything, but still AutoCAD crashes. I was surprised to find the same thing happening with AutoDesk Revit 2013 as well. I know the problem is with graphis card
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?
I use Photoshop Elements 11. I am trying to upload photos to a website and the browse only goes to Windows/Pictures. How do I navigate to photoshop to upload pictures there?
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: Â [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:"... Â 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?
Everytime I open my CS6, it always show " Could not initialize Photoshop because the preferences file was invalid (it has been deleted)" I reinstalled it but it is still popping out.
when I try to save a tagra file with a alpha channel in photoshop 7 the box for the alpha channel is greyed out, with an warning sign next to it, and the line below stating "file must be saved as a copy with this selection" When I examine the saved file the alpha channel is not there!
Has anybody got any idea why?
My old version of photoshop 6, allows you to save alpha channels!
the soft edge feature of the eraser and the brush no longer work. I can go into the pallet and choose a soft edge eraser or brush, but it comes up hard edge. When I try to use the marquee box with a feather to get a soft edge, I again get a hard edge. I've used this technique a lot, so I think I'm doing the method properly. I have removed the preference files a number of times and have trashed the old Photoshop and reinstalled Photoshop 3 or 4 times,
I am working on someone elses computer and the Software settings are different. The old owner does not use this computer anymore. The swatches are set and I would like it to function how it usually does, etc. I mean, even the transparent swatch on the tool bar is not there anymore, so when I use the pen path tool, I get these white and black fills which makes it difficult for me to see the path I am meant to be following.
How do I reset Photoshop so that I can customise it the way I want it? Reinstalling the softwares is not an option.
I would like to reset Illustrator, Indesign, Dreamweaver, etc.
I'm having trouble with my zoom tool. If I have multiple Photoshop windows open, when I go to either zoom in or out of the top window... ALL the other windows mirror what's happening to the top window.
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 scanned a picture on Microtek scanner and was tranfering it to photoshop when I saw photoshop embeded profile mismatch that has use the emdeed profile or covert document's color in the working space or discard the emdeed profile. which embeded profile do you use for the photos? I attached the shot of the embeed profile from photoshop.
