If I go to preferences, the GPU area says "No GPU options availabe with Photoshop Standard". Then the explanation at underneath says I need to upgrade my video driver or card.
I would, but the bit about no options available with Standard version is confusing. Does it mean GPU would work but just not have "options"?
I'm having some problems with drawing paths in Illustrator. Everytime I draw a new path, this new path shows up in the standard settings. The 'brush defenition' turns back to 'basic' and the 'variable width profile' back to 'uniform'. It would save me a lot of time if I could change those standard settings into what I prefer.
In preparing to build a new box for CS6 standard and LR4 (Win7, 64bit), I am not finding much info on how much video card memory CS6 is likely to be happy with, or, more accurately, what the upper limit of its usage is likely to be.
I'm running a card with 1GB now in CS5 standard and I have found that some GPU operations, such as Oil Paint in Pixel Bender, will choke and fail on 12MP, 16bit images -- normally after CS5 delivers this warning: Storage requirement for complex filters may overload GPU when processing large images.
do I need more GPU horsepower, more VRAM, or both? I know that Photoshop can allegedly get by with some fairly pedestrian hardware (I'm using an nVidia GT440 at the moment), but I plan on upgrading when building new. I'd just like to know if 2GB of VRAM will ever be used by Photoshop and how beefy a GPU I really need for processing the aforementioned 12MP, 16bit images (at some point that MP number will only become larger).
Partial list of proposed build in case it's relevant:
In Photoshop CS5 I created from a rectangle an tin can, that was nice.When I use the same (.psd) file and the same standard 3D shape (tin can) I get a total different result.What did Adobe changes with this option in Photoshop CS6? And how I can get the same result as I got in CS5?
Is 3D text not an option in CS6 Standard? It doesn't show up under the Type tab as shown in the Lynda tutorials. The tutorial does not state whether it is Standard or Extended edition.
I own Adobe Photoshop CS5 Extended for Mac. I don't want to join Adobe Photoshop subscription CC, but want to upgrade to Photoshop CS6.
I'd like the standard version of CS6 - not the Extended upgrade as it's much cheaper. Is it possible to buy / install an upgrade to CS6 from CS5 Extended ?
I've been trying to import video as layer but it's not working. I have windows 7.
When I tried with my MPEG of AVI videos, there's just a white screen where the video should appear and they don't work in quicktime.
When I looked up how to fix this it told me I should convert the video so that it's an MP4 that works in quicktime. So I did this but when I try to import, there's no option for MP4 format. This is the only option on the scroll down menu.
From everything I have been able to find out, I would need to pay the full $400 upgrade from my CS4 license even though I already own CS6. Surely there must be a way to go from CS6 to CS6 Extended for less than the cost to go from a previous version to CS6 Extended, but if there is, I cannot find a way how.
I have recently upgraded from CS3 to CS4 and have a slight problem with standard screen mode.
When I open an image in standard screen mode the image does not fill the screen and the amount of screen the image fills depends on the percentage magnification.
I have to drag the image with the cursor to fill the screen.
When I open a new image the same thing happens, it reverts back to partially filling the screen.
This only occurs in standard screen mode, the other two modes seem to be ok.
I have Photoshop CS6 Standard already installed on my Mac (OS 10.8). My employer has just purchased the extended version for me and I would like to upgrade. I have a valid serial number to do this.
I understand that the software is the same and depending on the serial number it can unlock the extended portion of CS6. Is there any way of upgrading the installed version to extended by re-intering the new serial number or should I just install a second copy of PS CS6 and have 2 PS CS6 (one standard and one extended)?
We rarely use 'custom' brushes, normally just using the standard ones that come with CS6 for photo-retouching.
We'd like to take a custom brush that is saved into another library, and copy it into the standard brush library, so we don't have to switch libraries to use that brush. Is there any way to accomplish this?
Is it possible when upgrading from 5 to 6, in 'Standard' mode, to get PS CS6 with 3-D option?I don't need all the bells & whistles that come with Premium.
Having problem with performance using PS CS 6 Extended. The wheel is spinning for almost every action in PS on my Mac book Pro.
Using: 15-Inch MacBook Pro Retina2,7 GHz Quadro Intel Core i716 GB 1600 MHz DDR3L SDRAM768 GB SSDMac OS X 10.8.3Before I joined the Creative Cloud I used the standard PSCS 6. No problem at all.
When I installed the Extended version, everything slows down. This is only a problem with PS. Can I start PS as standard edition?
If I have PS CS3 extended version and want to upgrade to PS CS6, can I buy the PS CS6 standard upgrade and "downgrade" from extended to standard version?
Ever since I downloaded the latest 13.0.1 update to CS6 two days ago, my custom settings keep resetting to every time I close down and reopen the program. Even my custom brushes keep disappearing and require reloading. This is getting maddening! Why is it happening and what can I do to fix it?
Is there a complete list of what all the "GPU features" in Photoshop 13 Standard are? I had posted this in another thread, but I'll just move my query to this new thread:
Chris Cox wrote:It will run, but none of the GPU features (including 3D) will work…
Is there a listing or description of what all those "GPU features" are? It would be of great interest to all of us who are stuck—temporarily or permanently—on such unsupported systems, regardless of platform.
This is on a maxed-out in every sense, unupgradeable MacBook on which ACR 7.1 hosted by Photoshop CS6 Standard is running just fine.
I have been downloading the trial for photoshop cs6 extended so i know wether i want to buy it or not but the CS6 Extended features are not available..what i might be able to do.I do have my graphics cards latest drivers and it is recognized in the preferences but still only displays as the standard photoshop CS6
my specs:
2.4ghz quad core 6 gigs ddr2 ram a 320gb HDD a 250gb HDD a GTX 460 and windows 7 64-bit
typically the lag occurs on just the standard brush above 100px. smaller brush sizes do not seem to be as affected. i've gone through all the downloads for photoshop and everything appears up-to-date. I've got 4Gb of memory.
I've got a ATI Radeon HD 4670 video card. I've checked off "basic" under the performance with no luck. Is it my video card?
every time i try to launch an app it says Error: 5. It is a genuine copy of CS4, i have the serial number, but cant find the disks and when i type in the serial into Photoshop, it says the serial is invalid. I only have it on this machine (Apple PowerMac G5 quad)
I need to print some stuff in japanese. However, since illustrator doesn't seem to support chinese nor japanese, I've been using photoshop. Up to now whenever I print business cards or whatever, I've been sending the file type to the print shop as .ai. However, with photoshop, do I simply send the file over in .psd format?
The "color box" in the "text bar" keeps the previous color and text comes out in that color, not the new one. (Different pictures) Windows XP-Home SP3 2 gig memory
A work around it to:
Back out of the color tool Save the file Reopen the file Re-Pick the color
Then I get what I need as text color.
This seems to have come up in the last couple of weeks. At least I don't recall it happening earlier.
