Are there any Tablets that Photoshop works on?

Hi, I'm just about to start a Diploma in Photography and I have never used Photoshop before. I need to buy a DSLR camera, Photoshop software and text books so I thought while I'm at it I may as well buy a Tablet too as right now I only have a Laptop. Iv been reading through a lot of posts and so far it sounds like Photoshop doesn't work on Tablets? Or it does work on Tablets but needs some sort of pen to make it work? I obviously have no idea about technical things and was wondering if anyone could make this really simple for me, basicly...
Does Photoshop work on Tablets (in my course material requirements it says I need CS5 or higher)?
And if it does work, what tablet/s does it work on?

I've seen Photoshop running on a Cintiq Companion with Windows 8.1.  The person using it (Peter Eastman) had bought it as his traveling computer, and it seemed to work OK.  One thing I wondered about was that he used it exclusively with the stylus (pen) and no mouse, which I think I might have found awkward. but he was doing OK.  He also had it hooked up to a projector, so you could use it with a second screen if you so chose.
The Companion is expensive, but is a genuinely useful tool.  There are several user reviews on Amazon:

Or you could email Peter and ask his opinion.  He is an Australian Grand Master of Photography (fifth dan ), but an OK person who usually answers his emails.

  • Are there any printers that actually work in linux?

    I have had a few , that worked in ubuntu, then didnt work, i have one that worked beautifullly in ubuntu,but only scans (it's an all in one) in arch.. is there a list of sacred printers that work? i tried installing gutenprint. how do you use it? i cant find it in the application list.. i try using the printer config at :631 on firefox, cant connect, cant connect at opera, or chromium, and i have no firewall running. so I cant configure a printer if one even did work, or do they work after you turn certain ones on?
    if anyone i mean anyone has any information about what does work, so i can go out and buy what actually works, please let me know.. this is annoying i have 2 printers and neither of them work.. both are all in ones.. one of them the scanner works.. but i cant use the printer part..
    thanks in advance..
    and YES Ive searched the wiki and forums.. seen similar problems many with no solutions, others with solutions that don't pertain to my situation

    This is, of course, your choice. In any case, Arch does not seem to be appropriate for your needs.

  • Are there any plugins that allow photoshop elements to read DDS files?

    I have multiple DDS files that I have been trying to open in Photoshop Elements 8, and a window comes up and says that it cannot open it because it is the "wrong type of file".  I would like to know if there are any plugins I can download to fix this problem.  It would also be helpful if the plugin could save the file in a DDS format, too.  I had been using a trial of Photoshop CS6 and I had a plugin for that, and I recently found an old disc that had Photoshop Elements 8 on it that I downloaded.  Back to the point, are there any plugins that can do this?

    The 32 bit version of this plugin should work in pse 8 if you on windows:

    I have posted this annoying Robles to bugreport.apple.com. Hope I can get locution (although Apple normally will not respond):
    On a software name Appfresh, it alerted me to update my MBPr 15 inches running latest OSX 10.8.2, with Chinese Word List Update 1.2. When I clicked on Software Pdate, app Store return No update available.
    My system have Chinese Word List Update 1.0 installed, and on October 5, 2012, Chinese Word List Update 1.1 was released by Apple, as alerted through AppFresh. However, this update never get updated on m system. I have to manually download chinesewordlistupdate.pkg from reviews.cnet.com/macfixit and install it manually. By doing so, I have Chinese Word List Update 1.1 on my system.
    The same problem occurred again today on November 5, 2012, where Chinese Word List Update is released by Apple. again, it fail to update from Software Update menu.
    Can you please:
    1. Explain why this problem occurred. This is so annoying.
    2. Advise me how can I get this Chinese Word List Date to update to version 1.2. Can you please send me the chinesewordlistupdate.pkg for version 1,2 so that I can manually install it on my system?
    3. How can I prevent similar problem with he subsequent version?
    Why Apple don't make this update standard as other update?
    Support please. Thank for response in advance

    I don't know of any way, except perhaps by using an animated GIF or PNG as your wallpaper. I've never tried it, though.
    I don't recommend jailbreaking your phone, voiding your warranty, and risking ruining the phone just for this feature, however - http://support.apple.com/kb/HT3743

  • Are there any apps that make it now possible to scroll with Mountain Lion ?

    I just gave up on a project that required me to be able to scroll through a Senate bill. I'll probably go back, but it just shouldn't be so difficult, so painful. and I'm not talking about the bill's language. No, it's just Apple's decision to do away with the USEABLE search arrows that existed before Mountain Lion, and, yes, I know that you can use the little up and down triangles--sometimes--for this purpose.  I have written to Apple about this on more than one occasion, but I never felt that this would do any good. Anyway, I came here to see if anyone knows of an app that has been developed to overcome this strange, almost malicious, behavior of Apple's. Are there any apps I can use on my iMac for scrolling? If not why not? I know I have a lot of company in my disgust with Apple's behavior, so I have to there is some prohibitively difficult problem that makes such a fix impossible. Is that the reason why no one has come to the rescue of Apple's suffering customers?

    For very long documents in PDF or on a web page, I just lean on the space bar for big jumps (Shift-spacebar goes up), or on the down arrow keys for short scrolling. If I'm on my laptop, the trackpad provides both large jumps and fine control. If I'm on my desktop, I love my scroll wheel mouse.
    In apps like Word, you can't scroll with the spacebar because you need it to type spaces, so I just use the Page Up/Page Down keys. On short Mac keyboards you press Fn+Up Arrow or Fn+Down Arrow to page up/down.
    There are so many more and better ways to scroll now compared to the 1980s when the only way was to click-click-click over and over again on stupid scroll arrows. If it stopped scrolling it meant you had to re-aim the mouse because the mouse slipped a little and the arrow is no longer hitting the arrow. If you wanted to scroll up, you had to move the mouse quite a ways because the arrows were on opposite ends of the bar. Scroll arrows were the worst and least efficient way to scroll and I don't miss them at all.
    I'm glad we have so many superior alternatives now where, unlike scroll arrows, you don't even have to look at the screen to scroll quickly and accurately. Today, the only good use for a scroll bar is to tell you how far you are through the document.

  • Are there any apps that allow you to dial direct from tapping a photo such as a photo phone book?

    Are there any apps with a photo phone book that allows you to tap a photo to dial?

    How could I put this in as a feature request? Should I try to find the existing bug in bugzilla and comment on that, or should I open a new bug? I would really love to see this happen, I think it is a worthwhile and usefult feature.
    I tried searching bugzilla for a bit but I could not find the relevant bug. If you know it, please link to it.
    Thanks!

  • Are there any applications that cleans up your macbook ?

    I bought a macbook a 2 months ago.

    Ccleaner on Windows has a few functions:
    1: Repairs the Registry
    2: Cleans the caches
    3: Secure Erases free space on the drive / deleted files.
    OnyX for OS X.
    1: OS X doesn't have a Registry to bork, but other things like Preference files, caches etc, can.
    2: OnyX can clean the caches and check for corrupted Preference files, rebuilt ds_store files and other things, basically clean out all the automated stuff designed to make the computer faster so it can rebuild it in case it gets borked or may contain content you rather wish it didn't.
    3: OnyX can Erase whats in the Trash, but not wipe free space on the drive, Apple's provided Disk Utility has a feature to to that.
    So if your looking for something to clean your Internet tracks on OS X, first use the browser cleaning aspects, then OnyX cleaning, then a reboot to clear the OS X DNS cache then a Disk Utility > Wipe Free Space.
    These features are not automated or intertwined with Firefox add-ons like Click2Clean is with CCleaner on Windows. You'll have to perform it manually.
    http://www.titanium.free.fr/
    Another option for totally cleaning one's system faster on OS X would be to use the free VirtualBox to run a free distro ISO of Linux (Ubuntu, Mint, MacBuntu etc) in OS X. Then once the distro is setup in the virtual machine, save a snapshot of this OS state to revert back to after browsing potentially malicious sites in Firefox (in Linux)
    Reverting on takes only a few seconds, instead of the painfully long time OnyX can take, and ensures everything is included for removal, of course a DU free space wipe would be necessary for completeness.
