Adobe Photoshop extremely choppy with latest Audigy2 ZS driv

I recently installed the latest SB Audigy 2 ZS drivers for Windows XP. If i work with Adobe Photoshop CS and listen at the same time to MP3 via Winamp 2.95, drawing with the mouse in Photoshop is extremely choppy. If i move the mouse fast in circles, nothing is drawn unless i move slowly. Curves appear jaggy instead of smooth like it was before. If i stop the music everything's fine. But as soon as music is played tracking the mouse in Photoshop is choppy. This never happened before.
It took me some time to figure out why this happens.
I used this Winamp installation for years without problems. Also there was never a problem with Photoshop. Mouse and its driver also didn't change for years. Then i remembered that i installed the latest Soundblaster drivers just recently.
I deinstalled the driver and now use the same as before, dated 2004-0-8. Works nice without choppiness.
For me the newer drivers are useless. They don't seem to be well tested.

Yes that is normal. I have no problem with CS6, No lag or hesitation.
A tip for you if your creating the mask using a copy of a color channel. Set the brush blending mode to "Overlay" This will protect the mask Black and White areas. You will only be able yo paint in gray areas of the mask. When areas turn 0,0,0 Black or 255,255,255 White they become protected too. Use a Wacom tablet soft brush low opacity and many strokes

Is adobe photoshop cs2 compatable with windows 8?

Is adobe photoshop CS2 compatable with windows 8?

I have removed and re-installed CS2 twice now and still get the same library application error.
DO NOT INSTALL WINDOWS 8 ONTO YOUR COMPUTER IF YOU WANT TO KEEP CS2!
Telling us to spend more money to upgrade our software to meet OS does not show trust to the users. CS2 should be able to work with new OS systems and if not users should be allowed to update their current program for free to be able to use it on the new OS.
Thank you,

Does Adobe Photoshop Elements work with MacBook Pro with Retina display?

Does Adobe Photoshop Elements work with MacBook Pro with Retina display, please?
Have searched Adobe website for answer - most recent is 2013 answer, saying no.
Contradicted by a staff ember who only referred to Photoshop, not Elements.
Reason I need it is that iPhoto does not support very high resolution photos - which I have now scanned onto my MacBook and do not want to re-scan!! After 90 minutes at my local Genius bar (lovely folk, very conscientiously searching for an answer...), re-scanning was their final piece of advice.
Help, please...

Hello Smis,
Welcome to the HP Forums, I hope you enjoy your experience! To help you get the most out of the HP Forums I would like to direct your attention to the HP Forums Guide First Time Here? Learn How to Post and More.
I understand you are having issues with your HP Monitor on your MAC. I am providing you with an HP Support document: Updating a Monitor Driver, where it states under the sub-heading Using HP monitors on a Mac "HP monitors are not supported in a Mac environment. However, newer Macs use graphics with VESA modes and can display to most HP LCD monitors. To do this, connect the monitor to the Mac while the Mac is off, and then turn on the MAC. The monitor should operate at 60Hz. The INF and software for the HP monitor are for Microsoft Windows and cannot be run in a standard MAC OS environment."
This being said all I can advise is that you check to see that the monitor is set to operat at 60Hz and contact Apple for assistance if that does not get your monitor displaying correctly.
I hope I have answered your question to your satisfaction. Thank you for posting on the HP Forums. Have a great day!
Please click the "Thumbs Up" on the bottom right of this post to say thank you if you appreciate the support I provide!

Is Adobe Photoshop CS compatible with Snow Leopard?

Which Adobe Photoshop is compantible with Snow Leopard? I have MacBookPro 10.5.8 and I upgraded the memory to 4 GB. If I go to 10.6.8 with Snow Leopard, what version of Adobe Photoshop would I need to have?
Thanks

Your post has nothing to do with AirPort Networking. You may find that you will get better results if you post to one of the other Communities areas like the Mac OS X v10.6 Snow Leopard or Other Pro Video.

Does Adobe Photoshop CS run with windows 7?

does Adobe Photoshop CS run with windows 7?

That also applies to photoshop cs owners as well.
The reason the specs say windows 2000/xp is because those were the current operating systems cs2 supported when released in 2005, well before windows 7.
Photoshop cs2 should work on windows 7, but as always there is no guarantee photoshop cs2 will work without some glitches on windows 7.
If your hesitate about trying it, you can always buy photoshop cs6 or subscribe to photoshop cc 2014, both of which are specified to work well on windows 7.

Weird issues with latest X-Fi Driver/Software

-Weird issues with latest X-Fi Driver/SoftwareO So I decided to update my X-fi drivers and software today, but I am running into some issues.
First and foremost is that my Volume Panel no longer works correctly. It brings up this cheap pos window when I click on the Systray icon instead of the corrrect full featured interface.
It lists the merdia source programs and has a volume dial, thats all this new one has.
The other issues are that none of the software updates want to install: Alchemy, Mixer, Mediasource Go
They all give me a message after I being to install that says "can not locate layout.bin please specify the path"? and gives my a "this setip reqires a cd" window and lists a path to a temp folder inside my windows folder.
Installing these for Vista? Ultimate 32-bit.

Adobe Photoshop CS3 - Problem with Trial

I recently downloaded and installed Adobe Photoshop CS3 directly from Adobe as it is the latest version my Mac supports. Upon start up, I am greeted with two options: a) I have a serial number for this product. and b) I want to try Adobe Photoshop CS3 free for 30 days. Seeing how I am simply looking to evaluate and have not purchased said product, I selected option b.
However, upon clicking "Next >" I am greeted by an error. "Problem with Trial" I am left with nothing but wasted time. This is the first time I have ever installed Adobe Photoshop CS3 so I do not understand why it will only allow access with a serial number. Any help to allow me to try this software is appreciated.
Thanks.

Could the trial have a time bomb in it that prevents use after several years? There's not much of a need for Adobe to allow trials to run for so long after the product's life cycle has concluded.

Apple! Please support Adobe Photoshop Elements 6 with iTunes!

After upgrading Adobe Photoshop Elements from version 5 to version 6, pictures can not be synced. Please fix iTunes to support version 6. I have the latest itunes version 7.5.0.20 on windows.

iTunes doesn’t support syncing with Adobe Photoshop Elements 6. Adobe made significant changes to the program’s internal database, which iTunes reads directly. Hacking the registry won’t work, since iTunes is expecting the older database format. Apple is finally starting to update its documents to explicitly state they only support versions 3-5, e.g.
http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=305703
My clumsy work-around is to export the desired photos from PSE 6 into a set of Windows folders and then sync iTunes with the folders. The likelihood that Apple will fix iTunes soon seems small.

View Adobe Photoshop Elements catalog with iPad?

I have 43K images in my Adobe Photoshop Premier v10 catalog...all of which have been organized into Albums (by year), rated (0-5 stars), and tagged with multiple keywords.
My Q is this: is there an iPhone/iPad app which can connect to my NAS server or laptop and understand this Adobe Photoshop Elements cataloging for displaying images??
I want to know how my iPhone/iPad can become a device to showcase my images, and would love to show "all photos of Dad", or "Xmas 2012 album", etc...
Thoughts?
Thanks
Mike

No. If you use windows you can send PSE albums to your ipad via itunes, but there isn't an app that can understand an organizer catalog per se.

Using Adobe Photoshop CS5 Extended with MacBook Pro Retina

I intend to buy the new MacBook Pro with retina display. Does anyone know if I will be able to use Photoshop CS5 Extended with it? I could upgrade to CS6 but it seems an unnecessary cost given that I am still quite happy with CS5.

CS5 does not offer Retina quality display - in fact, it looks awful. The current version of CS6 was updated to work with Retina display models (you'll need to check with Adobe to see what the current version of CS6 is... I know they haven't 'abandoned' it, but I subscribe to CC so I'm on CC 2014).
Good luck,
Clinton

Adobe Photoshop CC, problem with color noise/pixelation on the monitor display

After downloading Adobe Photoshop CC, my images come in with color noise/pixelation on the monitor display. I've tried checking the color space preferences, but this doesn't help. I didn't have this problem before. Is there anything else I can check? There's no problem with LR, just Photoshop.

My performance settings are: Available RAM 10905 MB/using 7633 MG (70 percent); cache levels 4, history 20, cache tile size 1024K. However, I noticed under Graphics processer settings, it is set on Advanced Drawing Mode - perhaps this should be changed to Normal or Basic Mode? Your help is very much appreciated.

Is anyone using Adobe Photoshop Streaming Edition with Chrome OS?

Adobe Creative Cloud Comes To Chromebooks With Photoshop - Forbes
This article (click on link above) indicates that a beta version of Adobe Photoshop Streaming Edition is available through the Creative Cloud to members of Adobe Education Exchange to use on multiple operating systems including the Chrome OS on Chromebooks and Chrome Box. Is anyone using this app? If so, where to you go to download the app? Thank you for your help.

Well, maybe, CS3 is the only one fully compatible, but Photoshop CS and CS2 will work...mostly. There are a couple of niggling little problems, but I have been able to do what I want, one way or another, with CS1. Elements 2 is, like PS7, a dead letter in Leopard, but Elements 3 and 4 work. Of course, these older programs run in Rosetta, being non-Intel native, and so my MacPro runs them at the same speed as my old G4 dual 800. I'm looking forward to a speed boost when my Xmas upgrade to CS3 is installed.
