When I use adobe photoshop, when I perform an action, for example, magic wand, the whole adobe screen goes black, then goes back on. I have a new, fast computer with lots of memory, Window 8.
I recently had to reformat my computer and decided to try a Photoshop trial to see if it was worth upgrading from my ancient Photoshop 7. I am experiencing a problem where the window with the image I'm working on keeps flashing--kind of a quick white strobe. I have used Photoshop 7 without this problem, but when I uninstalled CS and reinstalled my old copy of 7, the problem persisted. The flashing seems to randomly happen only when I am actually trying to paint/erase/blue, etc.
It does not seem to seriously impact the program itself, but the constant flashing when I try to focus on the image is giving me a severe headache. I have tried everything that I could think to do, but nothing works--is there anything that I can do to stop this?
I recently upgraded to Windows 8 Pro from Windows 7 and I have noticed some graphic glitches in CS6. The background flickering, the image becoming black, etc. After a bit a searching I found some others who were also having the issue. (Here and Here). I have also read the blog post by Jeffrey Tranberry recommending switching to Basic Drawing Mode which does solve the issue, however, by switching to Basic Drawing Mode what am I losing in functionality?
When looking through the PS Preferences I also noticed something interesting. Look at this screenshot: Notice the VRAM? 209310MB! This is one fast video card! Obviously this number is complete incorrect and I wonder if it is tied to the issue above?
Here are my PC Specs: CPU: AMD FX 4100 Quad Core 3.6 Ghz 64bit OS: Windows 8 Pro (Release version - upgraded from Windows 7) RAM: 8GB Video Card: AMD Radeon HD 6670 Video Driver: Catalyst 12.10 (Windows 8 compatible driver) Is this a PS issue or an issue within the video card driver and Windows 8? I have not seen other errors in Windows with other programs. (Granted other programs are not using the GPU like PS does.)
I'm running PSE 8 on an iMac. Is there a way to change the default dialogue / value windows to white or transparent? I'm also seeking a plug in to enable Channel manipulation in PSE. Many degraded graphics arise from problems in the green or blue channel which compromises the final RGB image.
Photoshop is acting wonky now that i've installed windows 8. i had to upgrade my video drivers, amd radeon 5700 series. now when editing photos, the background goes black or transparent.
When I pull up the levels windows both are black. If I reduce the image in the windows, I get a small black square. I have used this feature on various versions for years.
After an AutoCAD/Windows crash, I reboot. The system begins to load Windows (Win 7 splash), then the screen goes blank and a white Windows cursor appears -- nothing more; no desktop or taskbar.
Control-Alt-Del does nothing, however, the HDD light continues to flash as if it is continuing to boot. The same thing happens when I boot in Safe Mode (except cursor is larger due to different resolution).
I can boot from bootable CD and everything works fine. HDD scan and memtest both pass. I formatted the drive and reinstalled Windows and AutoCAD and everything works fine. However, two days later, the same exact problem occurred on the second of five workstations.

As in title, in Photoshop CS6 I seem to be getting an awful lot of flashing of the image area. By "flashing" I mean that the area turns completely black for split second fairly often. It seems to be somewhat influenced by my actions, as when i alt-tab out of photoshop with the window still visible, the image area stops flashing.
how to make the Pictures flash? You know when you have a layers of different pictures and then to make them flash? i know you can do it with gimp but i dont want to install it as my computer is slow enough already... is it possible to do it in PS3?
In Lightroom and other programs I own I can click a button to show blown highlights or clipped shadows. I can't find this in PS3 unless I apply a curve or levels adjustment.
I'm trying to make a small heart (like 30x30 pixels) that sparkles/blinks. Now, can I do this in Photoshop or Image Ready? I've tried everything in PS.
I recently had to reinstall my OS (Win 7 64 bit) and after doing the same to my photoshop program, I now get a flashing cursor that changes to a waiting circle. Other post talked about DPI and Java, which I have checked and still have the same problem. I've had the program installed on the same computer without this problem, and the setup is the same with the usual update in drivers.
I have just rendered an animation with moving people trains cars etc. My people were done with populate. They are theonly objects that flash. All other animated objects are fine.
I have a scene with a lot of objects and textures and my mouse is constantly flashing to a circle like if max is calculating or loading something. This is very annoying cause when the mouse becomes a circle I can no longer click and it is a circle like every half a second...
Recently i have been having a problem with Illustrator CC where while im working the top bar, tools etc will flash once for around a second then go back to normal while im doing this sometimes certain objects will be hard to move because of the flickering this keeps happening while working. Its kind of hard to explain really i have tried reinstalling Illustrator that didn't do anything and also resetting my preference which also didn't do anything. Ive tested other adobe products such as Photoshop which work fine no flickering.
I thought perhaps it could be a graphics card problems but tested a few video games and they run perfectly fine.
Out of the blue my screen started flashing menu icons after every command except Save. I had two small files open, went from paper space to model space on one of them and BAM! flashing icons and prolonged lag time while the file went from model to paper space. Then after that every command (except Save) evoked some serious lag time and flashing icons.
is there a easier way to make flashing animated gif? like the photoshop way? one that I don't have to add the white lines one by one, next to each other?
I finally managed to capture this phenomenon.... It happens every day, several times a day, but I was never able to capture it until now. Seems to occur when you open and close various palettes, but it's not reproducible on demand.

When I open any acad drawing acad immediately goes into regenerating model with a flashing screen. It will not allow any commands and I need to kill the application using the task manager.
