Photoshop CS6 problems in Mavericks

Hi,
Ever since I updated my Mac to Mavericks, Photoshop CS6 started freezing at random intervals, and it's making it really hard to work like this.
Please, release an update that fixes whatever is causing this.
Thank you

There are quite a few bugs in Mavericks. Scan down the posts for the last 3 days and you will find some rather long posts on various issues. Hopefully Apple will get on this.

Mouse not working in Photoshop cs6 on OS Mavericks

I am using Photoshop CS6 on OS Mavericks.
Now I can't use my mouse anymore in Photoshop. The mouse doesn't change with respect to the tool I selected, when I go over the image. So i can't use the mouse for nothing in Photoshop.
Its my first time I use PS under OS X, before I always worked on a Windows system.So propably I am missing a simple step or a setting?
Thank you for your help.

I just found the solution, so simple: My bluetooth connection was on, so my Macbook connected to my external keyboard, which caused the problem.
Hope it helps someone else.

Photoshop CS6 Problems

I have installed photoshop cs6 on my computer (Windows 7) but the programm is a bit useless since it can't create or open files.
I tryed reinstalling all my adobe programms 3 times but photoshop still won't work.
Do you have an idea how I can make the programm work?
thanks in advance

Thanks for you email, I finally went to an informatician today. We
finally found out that even if windows 7 sais the drivers are up to date
the driver that is managin to switsch between the two graphic cards
wasn't up to date. We downloaded it from the website and photoshop works
now perfectly well.
Thanks for your help!

Adobe Photoshop CS6 Problem

I have successfully installed Photoshop CS6 to my computer. However, when I open the front page to CS6 everything "freezes up", and I cannot open any of the tabs - not even the file or close tabs.
Have uninstalled and re-installed the CS6 several times with no effect. Am installing from a boxed disc that I purchased from Adobe.

Got it solved by going by adding the latest updates to CS6.

Mavericks, Photoshop CS6 problem

Here is a question.
I have
iMac (27-inch, Late 2009)
          iMac - model: iMac11,1
          1 2.8 GHz Intel Core i7 CPU: 4 cores
          16 GB RAM
and
          Apple Cinema Display
When I have TWO files open in TWO SEPARATE display and use the option key in Photoshop CS6 (any Photoshop) to MASK the layer, WHY IT JUMP FROM ONE FILE TO ANOTHER (from one screen to another)??
Guess what, I use this option for the last 15 years...
Can you help me with that?

You don't need CS6 for that,
Anyway, when you copy the layer (Command J), then do any adjustments...then you point your cursor at the bottom of the layers where you have little icons: 'Add the layer style', 'Add the layer mask', 'Create new fill or adjustment layer', etc.
So you point the cursor at the 'Add the layer mask' icon, hold 'option' key and click on that icon, and here we go, you have the mask (in any Photoshop)
Now, again...when you have two monitors and two files, you are working on one of them and keep the other as a reference. So when you click your mask, it goes to the reference image...How wierd is that??
I'm so tired of Mavericks problems, everything is a problem, starting with Photoshop, Firefox - any internet browser is slow...
Please tell me, do I have to go 15 years back to Windows again??
My productive time now is 50 % slower because I have to fix Mavericks problems...
This is third week that I have no positive results!
Thx
when I do this, I get a black mask (instead of the default white one)... The project I'm working on doesn't switch.
I don't work the way you do, and always have PS in the application frame, which I can then tile all active projects in it (in references to you having a reference image and a working image).
It's not a Mavericks issue, it's a user issue. have you tried to update CS6?

Can't use the keyboard shortcuts in Photoshop CS6 when updating Mavericks

Can't use the keyboard shortcuts in Photoshop CS6 when updating Mavericks

Thanks everyone. What worked for me was a version of the suggestions above. I had the problem with the ≠ character appearing in all my Photoshop CS6 keyboard shortcuts and rendering them largely unusable. However, I don't have any other keyboards besides US English enabled on my Mac. I do have Spell Catcher installed, which works through the keyboard input method. So, I switched from Spell Catcher back to English (with the US flag), launched Photoshop and presto, my keyboard shortcuts were restored, absent that obnoxious ≠ symbol. Once in Photoshop, if I reselect Spell Catcher, the ≠ symbol returns so I have to run Photoshop without the help of Spell Catcher - or forego the use of keyboard shortcuts while it's on. Since the developer of Spell Catcher passed away last year there will be no more updates to the otherwise very useful utility. Apparently this keyboard shortcut problem in the various guises reported here is linked to some element of the OS X input method in Mavericks, as Photoshop seems to manifest the issue in relation to one specific input source or another. This is the first application in my experience to have a problem with Spell Catcher in OS X 10.9. So I will continue to use it, except in Photoshop. Spell Catcher was never updated for Mountain Lion or Mavericks so people like me will have to use it "at our own risk" as the saying goes. Be that as it may, it does appear to be a bug in Photoshop that's at the root of this matter as different people have somewhat different problems with the OS X input method - not that I expect either Adobe or Apple to do anything about it.

Photoshop CS6 - problem displaying CMYK files in the project RGB

Hello!
I have a problem in 64 bit Photoshop CS6 - a new file (RGB, 72 dpi, no color profiles, mode 8-bit) images I put smart objects (images, CMYK, 300 dpi, 8-bit mode) wanting to build a small presentation for the web. These images in CMYK in some places have black spots pixelowe mainly in places where there is a gradient, or green. When you export a file to jpg's no black spots.
In other applications, this problem does not exist. Restarted the program recording it again but the problem has not gone away. Photoshop settings are standard.
I'm working on Win Pro 7, a very good computer.
What do I do? Help me: (

I am not entirely sure I understand you, but it sounds like it could be graphic card related... possibly at least. Could you post a screen-shot of how the problem looks?

Photoshop cs6 problem in mountain lion

I have a problem enable (graphics processor) in photoshop cs6.
Problems occurred after installation mountain lion.
Can someone help me fix this?
Carranque

As a professional machine from Apple (Mac Pro 2.4Ghz) can not exploit all the features of the new photoshop CS6? I installed the new mountain lion and I can not use the Graphics Processor in Photoshop's preferences panel. Revolting!
The rhythm of work was severely compromised by conflict between ML, ATI Radeon 5770 and Photoshop CS6.
Which of the companies is responsible for the problem?

Photoshop CS6 - Problems with Canon Easy PhotoPrint Pro!

Hi,
I have been a user of Photoshop for years, starting with CS2, and upgrading regularly.
Currently, I have Photoshop CS6, working on Windows 8, 64 bit!
With every version of PS, I have installed a Canon add in, called Easy Photoprint Pro.
I have found that this provides the best colour match (monitor/Canon Pixma Pro 9000 printer).
With CS 6, I find that as soon as I try and run Easy Photoprint, Photoshop stops working and closes down! (File >> Automate >> Easy PhotoPrint)
I have down loaded both the latest versions of PS from Adobe com, and Easy Photoprint Pro, from Canon - The latter is claimed to be compatible with Windows 8 and Photoshop CS 6.
I have tried disabling all other programs, at start up, and disabling all non Microsoft services; also disabling my Security suit!
I would be interested in hearing if anyone has experience this problem, and has a solution

The problem has been resolved, I think! For anyone interested,
(1) I completely uninstalled all Adobe and Canon software and drivers!
(2) I then deleted all Canon and Adobe folders on my C drive (Program Files & Program Files X 86).
(3) I then ran REGEDIT and deleted All Canon and Adobe Keys!
(4) I then ran CCleaner Registry cleaner!
(5) I then Restarted my computer!
(6) Finally, I reinstalled Photoshop (Updated on line); reinstalled Easy Photo Print and my Canon Printer Driver!
THIS DID NOT RESOLVE THE ISSUE!
I then repeated steps (1) to (5), but started my PC in SAFE MODE!
I then repeated step (6); namely:I reinstalled Photoshop (Updated on line); reinstalled Easy Photo Print and my Canon Printer Driver!
THIS APPEARS TO HAVE CLEARED THE PROBLEM

Building a test environment to double check a stock Windows 8 config and Photoshop CS6 is going to take some time.
As it turned out, not so much.
I had saved a snapshot for a Windows 8 x64 virtual machine when I first installed it, and sure enough I was able to restore that snapshot and install Photoshop successfully in just minutes with no problems.
I was able to run Photoshop CS6 x64 13.0.0 just fine.
I then updated to 13.0.1, which again went without a hitch, and now I'm able to run Photoshop CS6 13.0.1 x64 again without problems.
Note that this is a bone stock, freshly installed Windows 8 system without any tweaks whatsoever. There is just a C: drive and Photoshop's configuration is the stock out-of-box-experience.
I've tried some general dragging and dropping - e.g., of images from Explorer to Photoshop, of layer data from one document to another - with no problems.
I even shut down the virtual machine, added a disk drive (D:), then asked Photoshop to use D: as scratch. It had no problem with that either.
I am willing to say definitively at this point that there is no systemic problem with Photoshop CS6 and WIndows 8 x64 out-of-the-box, though that's not to say there aren't classes of problems with particular video drivers or on systems where the Windows 8 system was installed as an upgrade to an existing system - or even as a clean install but with disk volumes left over from a prior system.
That last scenario is the one I see causing the most problems - that of having a disk drive formatted under a prior version of Windows, which would have had a different Security ID, and not setting the ownership and permissions so as to allow access by the current username.

Photoshop CS6 Problems- Shortcuts are Stuck! Lasso Does Not Work!

Hi there! I'm a Mac user with a Cintiq 12WX tablet, and I just upgraded to Photoshop CS6. I use it primarily for art, but I've come across some problems that have really interrupted my workflow. A lot of the time, certain functions seem to not work or get stuck. Here are my problems specifically:
1. My Undo shortcut is set to Command+Z. Some of the time it works fine, but most of the time I keep hitting the command and nothing happens! So if I want to delete a brush stroke, I usually have to tap multiple with my stylus and make more strokes in order to get Undo to work. Frustrating!
2. The lasso tool works sometimes, but a lot of the time it doesn't select anything. So I have to keep repeating the stroke until it does select.
3. Sometimes, the keyboard shortcuts just don't work! And even if a tool is selected, I can't do anything with it!
These problems are all completely random, I have no idea what triggers them. I've read of other people having similar problems, but I have yet to find a solution. Nothing like this happened in CS5. Does anybody know how to help me? I make me living with art and these problems have really slowed me down. Thank you!

What OS Version are you using?
It sounds like you are on MaCOS, did you install the WhiteWindowWorkaround plugin to avoid the known MacOS bugs?

Lightroom 3 and Photoshop CS6 problem when editing

Hi,
I have just upgraded to Photoshop CS6 and now when I 'edit in Photoshop CS6' from lightroom and save it, the image doesn't appear next to the original RAW file as it did before. Now lightroom creates its own folder with the edited files in.
For example, I edited a RAW file from a folder called Bissoe valley from Lightroom and saved it. When I go back to Lightroom the edited image is not next to the original file but in a seperate folder called 'Bissoe valley'. I then try to drag the edited image back into the original 'Bissoe valley folder with the original RAW file and it says 'the file already exists at the destination'
I appologise if this has already been asked. I'm guessing I need to buy Lightroom 4 because of incompatibility issues? It wouldn't surprise me if this is the case.
Thanks in advance for any help.

Victoria....you are a legend!
You can see here lightroom has created folders identically named to the folder which the original files belong to (coco, Harriet, Bissoe and independent assignment)
The really confusing part is that when I look in the original folder outside of Lightroom, the saved Tiff image is there next to the original.
I think I will try uninstalling ps cs6 and go back to cs5 to see if it solves the problem and take it from there....

Photoshop CS6 UNWORKABLE on Mavericks!

Hello fellow "apples"
I've a late 2012 Macbook Pro (non retina) with 2,6 GHz i7 8GB Ram and 750HDD
Since i've updated the OS to mavericks yesterday I've been struggling with photoshop CS6, it can work just fine for a minute to completely freeze for a few or even 10 or so seconds ( sometimes even more ) until it will respond. This issue had not existed in Mountain Lion. I've also noticed that the sound voulume bar can be laggy, it jumps a few dots instead of steady increments .
Now i'm an artist not a tech guy, but my guess will be it has something to do with the new memory allocation thing, anyhow it made my life really difficult as i cannot work in PS anymore, and that's a serious stab... Someone should fix that really fast as being a freelance artist and illustrator I've lost a tool that gets the food on my table, if we won't get a fix asap some heads should roll.... :/

this solved my small issues.

Photoshop CS6 and OS Mavericks Issue

I can't get photoshop cs6 to behave properly now that I've upgraded to OS Mavericks. For that matter - I can't get InDesign or Illustrator CS6 to behave properly either.
When I use the File Open, File Save, and File Save As commands I immediately get the pinwheel that spins without end. It doesn't matter if I use a shortcut key or a the pull-down menu. I never get to a dialogue box. The pinwheel immediately appears after "Comm + O."
I've searched the forums and can't find a solution that works.
I've tried the following:
Removed all copies of CS5.1, CS5.5, and CS6. Reinstalled all CS6 apps.
Updated all CS6 apps to the latest version
Verified that I'm running the latest approved Apple Java from Apple
Updated my Wacom Drivers
Performed a repair permissions through Disk Utility
Unchecked "Displays have separate spaces" in Mission Control
Rebooted several times
Nothing has worked. Any ideas?
I'm nearly to the point of using Time Machine and ditching OS Mavericks.

Does that include Resetting the Printing System and adding a new print queue for your printer?

Photoshop CS6: Problem - paint bucket

Hello,
I am used to work with Photoshop. Unfortunately there is a bug in the paint bucket tool of Photoshop CS6. I made all updates up to 13.0.1 (x64).
Description: The paint bucket tool is very tricky to use now. If you want to fill a certain empty area of a picture with a simple color, it often does not do that. My clicks are totally correct, also the position ... but it does not take it. Somtimes I have to zoom insome 100% untill my clicks are successful and the desired areas are filled with color.
I hope that Adobe can release an update to fix that problem.
Kind regards
Ameeon

hmmm ... but now it works.
maybe I am not used to the black arrow symbol ...
Has someone experienced the same problem?
