Photoshop :: Recurring Glitch When Opening / Making New Files
May 28, 2013
Firstly, I'm using Photoshop CS6 on Windows 8. I'm using a Toshiba Laptop with a GTX 630m. My graphics drivers are up to date.
Â
Usually Photoshop works fine, but, occasionally, when I open another file, or make a new file, the new "tab" that opens up is completely blank. All of the files that I already have open work fine, but the new file is completely glitched out. I've included a screenshot of the error. No amount of zooming / resizing of the window/switching from full screen / etc. The only fix I have been able to find is to completely restart Photoshop each time this happens.
I'm having an issue with PowerClip I never used to have in X3 (the last version I was able to afford).Basically, some small details in a graphic keep getting irreversibly lost due to PowerClip... I'm tracing over a drawing I scanned, and placing small details inside larger objects to keep my workspace clean. What's going on is, as I get to work on, say adding blends and gradients to a different part of my graphic, the next time I zoom out I notice the details I placed inside a container I wasn't currently working on are suddenly gone; They're not in the wireframe view for either the full image or within the container, and have simply vanished from the container, as though I never even made them. I make sure outlines are always converted to objects before I put them in a container, but I can't imagine it matters..PowerClip is one of my most-used tools and it'll really limit my abilities if I can't rely on it.
My main user folder on the iMac is set to be shared (read/write, including all enclosed files) with my MacBook Pro. The job is a series of one-page InDesign files (they are newspaper advertisements). The IDD files contain a series of Illustrator files with linked PSD files.The idea is that we can both work on the .idd and .ai files in the same folder at the same time. Â It's all working fine EXCEPT that whenever an .ai file is opened on the MacBook, Illustrator doesn't know where the linked PSD files are. We can update the link, but when the .ai file is then opened on the iMac and saved, the same thing happens the next time it is opened on the Macbook. Â I don't want to embed the PSD files into the .ai files as sometimes I have to modify them and they can be linked to up to 20 .ai files.

I've never had this before, but when it happens it refreshes everything every time i interact with photoshop, which makes it very annoying. I made a new canvas, and the suddenly with every brush stroke or click of a button or whatever, the "new document" window pops up with most of its controls missing for a split second, and any drop down menus i recently used quickly appear.
Then the screen all refereshes and it goes away. This happens quickly. I managed to grab a screen shot when it did it though, showing a distorted menu appear quickly. I'm guessing its my video drivers, right?
I mean, its not a huge problem because a simple restart of photoshop sorted it out, and ive never had it happen before, but io thought it best to tell just as a notice if Adobe know anything about what could be causing it. I have the newest video drivers installed which has enabled photoshop to work on dual moniotors with open gl and also had a refresh prefomance increase in certian other areas.

When typing numbers or punctuation on Photoshop CS6, they always glitch and go back to the beginning of the sentence and can't be made to go after the letters.
I'm trying to flatten an image with a gradient. This was originally a RAW image. My photos keep having this "C" with circles around it (as seen in Photo 2).
I've been trying to achieve a VHS glitch effect in Photoshop for some time now, but have been having trouble. I found a t-shirt design by an artist who has done this effect really well:
How I can try an achieve this effect - I've already tried data bending an image file, but the results are no where near as good as this design.
Photoshop glitched during a save of an image that had been opened from Aperture 3, and now I can't open PS at all. The error message I get is:Â "Couldn't open the edit log file Photoshop Edit Log. Edit logging is disabled."Â I'm running Photoshop from Adobe Creative Suite 3 Design Standard, Mac OS X 10.7.3 Â SInce I can't get into PS, I have no way of getting into the preferences settings. Â how to reset or delete the corrupted edit log and create a new one?
I made a simple gradient from black to white, then went to Select>ColorRange and used the sample color I had - #848484. I set the fuzziness to 0 to restrict the selection to only that color and then pressed OK. It selected three pixels. I copy and paste these into a new document to make it easier to see them. Now here's the glitchiness: I eyedrop each of the three pixels to see what their hexadecimal values are. One is 848484, another is 848484, but the last one is 848585. Why is Photoshop selecting an 848585 colored pixel when I'm telling it to only select a 848484 colored pixels? I would assume that setting fuzziness all the way down to 0 would restrict the selection to EXACTLY the color you specify, but it doesn't appear to be doing that. Is there any way around this? This is important because I'm trying to select specific colors that are not used as much and replace them with colors used more often in the image.
i have this glichi tried to disable themes(visual style)but it does not solve the problemupgrade the video and all other divers re-installed and reset the preferences does somebody see such glitch ,
I was adding in some text to a hand drawn image that I scanned in. I put in the first label and it was going smoothly, then I highlighted it and changed the font and the black lettering I put in disappeared.
It still seems to be there, and it shows up in the Layers box. It's just as though the opacity has been turned down to 0% (which it hasn't). It's not stuck behind another layer and it's not the same colour as the background. I can still copy/paste text in and out but I can't make the text visible. Even if I put a colour overlay using the Layer/Layer Styles/Blending Options, it still won't show up.
Even if I start a new image, the same thing happens when I try and put new text in. Basically, my ability to add text to an image has been totally incapacitated.
Have I leant on the keyboard and triggered a short cut I didn't know about? Is it a glitch or a screw up with the program.
Okay, I use Photoshop frequently, and am quite familiar with the Pen tool. However, this time, when I tried to fill a closed path, the colour appeared on the OUTSIDE of the path. I've never seen it do that before, and it's proving persistent and annoying. I have no idea why it's done this, and therefore don't know how to fix it.
I recently purchased CS6 and loaded it to my desktop PC running Windows 7 and everyhing is fine. Â I recently purchased a new laptop and loaded a second copy to it (running Windows 8). When I process a RAW file and try to open it in PS6 about every 4th file does not appear in the PS6 workspace. The file details show in the top left corner, the background layer appear, I supposedly can save this file but I cannot see anything. When I close PS6 and re-open it and re-open the ACR file, then open to PS6 if works fine.
I have Photshop CS6 Extended but when I click on the .cr2 which is the RAW file I keep getting an error message "Could not complete your request because it is not the right kind of document"
I have tried installing the camera raw plugin Photoshop Camera Raw 7.1
I am running CS4. I have downloaded all recent upgrades. I have upgraded my camera body from a Nikon D90 to a D7000. Photoshop will not open the D7000 RAW NEF files. Jpeg files are fine.
Yesterday, before closing down, I uninstalled P/S 7, CS2 and CS3 to gain space, but do not know whether that action is relevant to my problem. Today I find that JPEGs will not open in Photoshop, and in Bridge only by going through Camera Raw. Photoshop will open tiffs, while Bridge will open some, but not all tiffs, through Camera Raw only. This problem follows many months of trouble-free operation of CS6.
My operating system is Windows 7 Ultimate. I have downloaded the latest patches for CS6, and have set the Bridge Preferences item on File Associations to Default.
I am using win 7 and CS5. I have both JPG and RAW files; however all of a sudden when I attempt to open some JPG files, they somehow are vertically truncated only opening halfh the picture.Â
This problem just started recently on my PhotoShop 7.
I try to open an EPS file that was created in Illustrator or Freehand (or any other EPS that is not a Photoshop EPS), it opens up as a blank document, like a transparent layer (you just see the gray and white checkerboard background). This happens whether I try to open the file by FILE>OPEN or if I drag the EPS file over the PS7 icon.
I tried everything and looked everywhere but without success.
I have two different psd files I cannot open. I last worked on these files May 30th. For each of them I completed a detailed mask, added a path and saved the files without changing the name. Today I went to work on my project and could not open either file.
When opening the 1st file I got this error message: Could not complete your request becaus the file is not compatible with this version of Photoship. When opening the 2nd file I got this error message: Could not complete your request because it is a not a valid Photoshop document.
I just bought a 50D and did a wedding. I have a new photoshop CS4. I just downloaded the most recent update. None of my RAW images will open in photoshop. They open in the Canon software that came with my camera, but won't open in Photoshop.
I have a question about opening a .dds file to make skin for a car in RACE 07.
I have already installed the NVIDIA DDS plug-in and it used to work on PS CS2. Now I tried it on CS3 and at first it said that it was an unknown file format or something (don't remember the exact error). So I first re-installed the plugin. When that didn't work, I copied the dds.8BI file from the Plug-Ins folder in the CS2 folder to the Plug-Ins folder in the CS3 folder on my external HDD. Then I had the same error on both photoshops: "Could not complete your request because the file-format module cannot parse the file."
I originally installed the software on my second drive which is intalled in my computer casing. This is due to limited space I have on my "C" drive, this is where the file "MyPictures" are also found.
Through Bridge, I can go through the "mypictures" file without a problem, however, if I am in photoshop the minute I go through the "open" fil commande the window opens I see the files but the computer freezes and I have to shut down the program.
I have received many suggestions to which none have resolved the problem. I have moved stuff around and I am now able to fit on the "C" drive the program (Photoshop) and "MyPictures" onto it. It did not solve the program either.
I am trying to email a photo for a contest and my file is too large to email (it is fine as long as I don't have my watermark on it....when I place my watermark on it, it becomes too large.....and I need the watermark on it or it will be disqualified).
