Photoshop :: CS5 Lags After Upgrading To Mountain Lion
Sep 4, 2012
I'm using Photoshop CS5 (v.12, the 12.4 update does not apply to the ME version I have) on a mac book pro running a 2.3 Ghz Intel core i5 and 4GB memory. Everything worked fine until I recently upgraded to Mountain Lion.
From that moment on it became virtually impossible to use Photoshop as every operation, including choosing a menu item, takes forever. Illustrator and Fireworks work fine. I tried turning the openGL mode to basic but nothing seems to work.
CS6 being very slow, since upgrading to Mountain Lion, 2 days not using it and design jobs sitting a waiting and costing me. Why is this happening?I click, I get the wheel showing its working to catch up, I click, I get the wheel showing its working to catch up,I click, I get the wheel showing its working to catch up,I click, I get the wheel showing its working to catch up...............
Everything was fine until I upgraded to Mtn. Lion on my iMac.
I have the latest 17inch macbook pro - and just installed mountain lion. And now my Photoshop CS6 is hanging. I cannot work at all. Every time I select a tool - the beach ball shows up and hangs for 5-10 seconds. Every time a make any action it hangs for 5-10 seconds. I ran a font check in font book and I have no corrupt fonts.
I'm on Mountain Lion for all my "non-critical" work, but I'm still running the latest Snow Leopard on my main desktop machine, running CS6 Design & Web Premium. I've avoided the switch primarily because of the auto-save feature that Apple placed into ML..is auto-save a problem, as Apple implements it, with CS6 and working on images?
In particular: 1. I work on very larger files, 4GB+ in size regularly, and I don't wan't the performance hits associated with constant saving, 2. I make changes to images, downsizing them, cropping, color corrections, etc. so that I can make jpg proofs for clients or myself. These are more "intermediary" images and not intended to be saved. I don't want to down sample an image, flatten it to create a jpg for proof and have it overwrite the original image layered, high res by mistake. Does this happen with Photoshop, or does Adobe avoid the auto-save that Apple uses?
I have all the latest iOS gadgets and it's becoming quite cumbersome managing multiple sets of iCloud info, etc. without being on ML. I'd like to make the switch, but at the cost of losing work, etc. And, does this also apply to all the other Adobe apps in CS6? I'm constantly making minor changes and edits that I usually "undo" out of and don't want saved.
I've a 15" MacBook Pro (Graphic Card is 6490M) and installed Mountain Lion and Photoshop CS6. When I Check my System Info in Photoshop, it show the OpenCL is unavailable just like this:
Then I open the Performance tab in Preferences, and see that I cannot enable OpenCL and the GPU Acceleration like this:
How come? Is the problem of Mountain Lion or Photoshop? How can I solve the problem?
I have mountain lion 10.8.4 , all work fine . I turn on the pc and graphics clock is at 324mhz and its temperature is low (40 - 42 ºc) , and use FinalCutX clocks graphics up and close program and down.
Use Photoshop CC trial clocks level up to 1.06 mhz and temperature rises ( normal ). But I close Photoshop and clocks not down to 324mhz , are maintained in 1,06mhz and not low. ( temp 54 - 57ºc ) more consumption more temperature.
I only happens with photoshop cc , ¿ is a fail of program ? I probe driver osx and driver nvidia 313.01.02f01 and no difference. The latest version of cuda is installed.
I ran my CS3 on my iMac (mid 2011 model) ans the Lion Op. sys. until last week when I upgraded the OS to mountain Lion. clicking on "Setup" on the installation DVD returns "Setup has encountered an error and cannot continue. contact Adobe Customer Support".
The only Adobe customer support I could find was chat and was told that CS3 being 3 versions old they could not work.
Q1. How to install CS3? Q2. Is it too old for Mountain Lion? If so I will have to drop down to elements and will ask questions there.
I have just made the jump from OSX 10.6.8 to OSX 10.8.2. It's been so long that I've updated my iMac, that I forgot about any issues with PowerPC/Rosetta/etc. I did a clean install on my iMac, and brought it up to Mountain Lion (OSX 10.8.2). After this, I installed Adobe CS3 onto Mountain Lion and had no problems with the installation and starting it up and using.
Having used CS3 Photoshop 10.0.1 for years with OSX 10.6.8, I knew that I had to run an update to take my virgin install from Photoshop 10.0.0 to the more current Photoshop 10.0.1 on the new OSX 10.8.2.
- The Adobe Updater does not detect any updates, so I am stuck with CS3 Photoshop 10.0.0, and am unable to update it. How can I accomplish an update?
I have tried several things, including manually downloading the "Adobe Photoshop 10.0.1 update for Adobe Photoshop CS3" from here: URL.....but Mountain Lion does not let me run the patch because of an alert that it isn't part the app.
I have also read extensively about using the Terminal to command-line the update... is this safe? point me to the exact set of terms to type in Terminal, as I'm uneasy about going into the OS with Terminal and coding things?
I have also read about setting the iMac's clock back to October 1, 2011 so that the Adobe Updater's receipt file doesn't think that it's expired? Is this something to try that is safe, and then change the clock back to present day?
how to take my virgin install of CS3 Photoshop 10.0.0 to CS3 Photoshop 10.0.1,This, of course, goes for all of the products in CS3 that I cannot update.
I have upgraded to Mountain Lion and use Photoshop CS5. Printer Epson R2400. Cannot get the right color adjustments, particularly reds which are orange-brown. I have used Photoshop and the printer for several years without problems.
As above, when I try and save a document in any format, PS CS6 stops responding. I updated to PS 13.0.1. I seem to be able to do a Save For Web but not any other type of save
I'm running PS CS4 on a power mac. I'd like to move that to my new Mac Powerbook running Mountain Lion. Is that possible. Is there a simple way to get this version of Photoshop to run on my new machine?
I am running the latest version of Photoshop CS6 on my mid-2010 13 inch Macbook Pro with 8gb of memory. Mountain Lion is the OS. Whenever I launch CS6 it crashes with the following message: An unexpected and unrecoverable problem has occurred. Bridge opens fine.
I seem to be getting conflicting reports about which versions of CS are or are not compatible with OSX Mountain Lion. Some rumors say that 5 is not, some say 5.5 is not, and some even say CS6 is glitchy .
ERROR: DW050: The following payload errors were found during install: ERROR: DW050: - Adobe Photoshop CS6 English Language Pack_AdobePhotoshop13-en_US: Install failed ERROR: DW050: - Adobe Photoshop CS6 Core: Failed due to Language Pack installation failure
Since update I cannot use Photoshop.I produce a 200 page magazine and a deadline will be looming soon.I start up and it just hangs. I have tried to post a hang report here but to no avail.
I have discovered that Premier Pro CC also hangs and I have to force quit like PShop.
Photoshop CS6 keeps on crashing for me when I open a file with text in it. It works fine when creating the text, but as soon as I close the PSD and open it again it crashes on loading the file. If I rasterise the text from another computer and open it it works fine.
I tried deactivating all the non-system fonts, I read that there are some fonts that cause problems and so I deleted those.
It seemed to be working fine since Mountain Lion came out, it's only been acting up for the past month or so, don't remember there being an update for either Photoshop or Mountain Lion around that time.
I'm using Font Case for my fonts and below is the crash report:
For some reason a message appears that this doc is not being color managed. I've been using Photoshop manages colors and selecting the correct profile with no issue—until now in Mountain Lion. I haven't attempted to print my art yet with this error.
Am using Photoshop CS6 on iMac 27inch with Mountain Lion. Experiencing inability to use the move tool to place one image on another after extraction. I place the move tool on the previously extracted image and drag it into an new image, but the extracted image does not get placed on the new image. Also, cursor disappears frequently when using Photoshop for extended periods of time.
I recently migrated my data and software from a 27" iMac to a new 13" MacBook Air. I found that my CS6 window is sized beyond the boundaries of the 13" screen. I was able to drag the window sideways far enough to pull the right side within the 13" destop, but the bottom of the window is still below the bottom of my desktop and I cannot grab it or grab the corner to pull it up.
I imagine that resetting CS6 to original defaults would fix the problem, but I have lots of saved actions and other settings that I do not want to loose.
This is bad. I upgraded to Mountain Lion and by large I am very happy with it. No problems with Photoshop CS5 (can't afford to upgrade just yet) and Illustrator CS4, all working as expected. BUT... Bridge has completely refused to work and I am panicking as I have to use this virtually on a daily basis.
It will open, but the moment you try to use it, it just crashes. All updates as far as I know are installed and I am desperate. Currently have work sitting and waiting to be done and I am becalmed.
Just upgraded to Mountain Lion and my Photoshop droplets are not working. Have remade them all, even re-installed Photoshop, deleted prefs etc .... they are just not working. If you drop something on the droplet they go to launch (you see a flicker in the dock) then they don't.
Droplets work fine on "Lion".Exactly the same issue we had when we upgraded to Lion last year. so am hoping Adobe will release a fix?
I have downloaded mountain lion upgrade from originally using snow leopard for my imac and now CS5 does not print. However Photoshop elements 9 is OK. All other document print OK. Is this an Apple problem or Adobe problem?
I just upgraded to CS6 and updated a volume to Mountain Lion (latest version) — a disk that I was using for Scratch. Now, when I attempt to open Photoshop I get a "Could not open a scratch file because the disk is not available" message then closes.
I know Photoshop didn't have a problem with this particular volume prior to Mountain Lion. I made the Library file visible in ML in case PS needed something there as well as trashing the prefs & permission repairs but still no joy. Switching the Scratch volume to another (non ML) disk let's PS open no problem.
