Photoshop :: Scratch Disks?

Jul 10, 2007

I have Photoshop CS3 (and Windows Vista) and just recently every time I attempt to crop, it gives me the error message that my scratch disks is full. I went into my Preferences and put my C: drive as my first choice (which is only about 10 percent full) and my D: drive as my second. I have a new HP with the D: drive being the recovery portion of the hard drive. I have gone in and cleaned it out. I have restarted both Photoshop and my computer. I read online that you can clean out all of the temp files but it did not say where to locate them. I have searched for "#pst" files. I also can't find my "Local Settings" (because Vista still confuses me) to find temp folders. The only temp folders, I can find has nothing to do with Photoshop.

Photoshop :: CS6 Scratch Disks / Won't Open?

Feb 5, 2013

so I got the 'scratch disks are full' message when I tried opening new projects. After googling, I read to just change the location to another hard drive instead of the main one, so I went into preferences, unchecked the C drive & checked the E drive. Now photoshop won't let me open it. I get this message:
 
"Could not open a scratch file because the fil eis locked, you do not have nexassary access permissions, or another program is using the file. Use the 'properties' command in the Windows Explorer to unlock the file." how do I do this, exactly?

Photoshop :: Scratch Disks Are Full

Feb 2, 2009

PS CS3

I am trying to crop a JPG slightly to get a specific size. I have set the size in the toolbar of the crop tool and draw the crop mask, but when I try to complete the crop it says "Cannot complete your request because the scratch disks are full". I have two disks on this machine, one with 26GB free and the other with 77GB free and this is only a 250x970px image. I did several prior crops on the same image among other operations, but wanted to use the exact size on this one since it needs to fit in a rotating banner for a website. I can crop it if I leave out the exact size, but then, of course, I am only guessing at the size.

Photoshop :: Scratch Disks On High Resolution

Photoshop :: Scratch Disks Full On HDD With 300gigs Free?

Oct 18, 2013

I'm working with a fairly large CMYK document, 300dpi 160inches x 38inches. On disk it registers as just under 3.69gigs as a .PSB file, and as 1.53g/18.0g in Photoshop's Document Sizes info panel. I'm using CS6 extended.
 
I'm at the point where I can barely work with this thing any longer, as nearly any time I attempt to run a filter or make basic transformations, I get the "scratch disks full" error and PS is unable to complete the task. I'm also receiving the same error when attempting to save changes to the file to disk.
 
The thing is, in my performance preferences I have an external HDD with 330gigs of available space set as the primary hard drive, and am still getting this error. If I switch the primary scratch to a second internal 7200rpm HDD with 60gigs available, I don't have that issue for the first couple of operations, until the PS temporary file baloons to 40+gigs and I start getting the error again, necessitating a restart of Photoshop which of course loses my unsaved changes. I've also tried allocating my two internal SSD drives (Windows 7 and applications) as the 3rd and 4th scratch disks, which doesn't seem to work at all. They both have only around 5gigs free each.

Illustrator :: Differentiate Empty And Non-empty Pixels

Oct 31, 2013

I'm a web developer currently slicing an illustrator file for web graphics. Some of the icons and images have shadows, lights, etc, and it's impossible to simply see by a naked eye which pixels contains some shade or nearly transparent color and which doesn't.
 
It would be extremely useful if I could somehow easily differentiate between empty and non-empty pixels, so I wouldn't miss any when slicing.

Photoshop :: Why CS5 Using External Disks

Jan 27, 2011

I keep having a problem where I cannot unmount my external hard drives while Photoshop is running.  I have them unchecked in the System Preference for "scratch disks", so what else can cause Photoshop to use the external disks?  It's a real drag having to quit Photoshop every time I want to move my laptop into another room.
 
(By the way, the only reason this disk is attached is it contains my music library, so no, I'm not opening files off that disk either.)

Lightroom :: 3.6 Does Not Chow Disks As Destinations Other Than C

Mar 16, 2012

Since I have (unfortunately) the Windows 7, Lightroom 3.6 does not want to allow me to import to any other disk but to C: But my fotography is not on the system drive.
 
As a work around I have a "2 step import" import to C:drag and drop directories after import the new directories into my photography drive.  I wish I could stay with the far superior Windows XP, but I cannot. Its business with getting money for updates/upgrades.
