AMD Radeon HD 6750M and bug in Photoshop CS5

Lately I noticed that merging spot channels in Photoshop CS 5 changes the opacity of the images.
Adapting my settings in preferences > performance > GPU setting solves the problem if you enable the Open GL drawing and in advanced settings mode is set to basic. This was not set by default and so gave the problems mentioned above.
I hope that a future update of the video card driver can solve this problem.

  • AMD Radeon HD 6750M and Mavericks!!! Please HELP!

    after I performed a clean installation of Mavericks on my macbook pro, in about this mac it shows the graphic adapter as "Intel HD Graphics 3000" instead of " AMD Radeon HD 6750M", is there any solution to move back the AMD graphic adapter as the main graphic operator?

  • AMD Radeon HD 6750M, Early 2011 MBP, 10.9.4 Problems

    Hello,
    Ever since 10.9.3 update I have a serious problem with my Early 2011 MBP with AMD Radeon HD 6750M card.
    First my configuration:
    MBP 2.2 GHz Intel Core i7 (Macbook Pro 8,2)
    16 GB RAM
    512 GB Sandisk SSD and 750 Stock HDD
    AMD Radeon HD 6750M and Intel HD Graphics 3000
    OS X 10.9.4
    I'm usually using my MBP with external display with a resolution of 1920x1080. The display is connected via DVI to Mini Display Port adapter. When I connect the external display, my MBP switches to the AMD card. Here's where the problems begin. If I'm using Davinci Resolve, Capture One Pro or any other software (that I use regularly) that uses the GPU extensively, the cpu usage will rise, the computer will start to feel sluggish and my productivity almost becomes none because even the simplest tasks such as opening another tab in firefox or safari takes anywhere between 1-3 sec. When the computer starts doing that, I cannot play a simple HD video at native fps and the whole machine basically becomes too expensive paper weight. The strange thing is that even after I quit all programs, the system cpu usage continues to be high, around 50% with kernel_task being the star using all this cpu and it keeps using all of this cpu forever, at least until i shut it down or disconnect the external display and manage to make it switch to the internal Intel gpu.
    The problem started after istalling the 10.9.3 update and it's still there with the 10.9.4 update. I even formatted the computer and reinstalled everything but the problem still persists.
    I haven't experienced anything like this on 10.9.2 and the machine was actually quite fast before that. Now, I have too expensive paper weight on my desk.
    Since the problem is very specific, I doubt many users will complain and I doubt Apple will ever do anything to fix it, at least until hopefully the new drivers in 10.10 fix the issue hopefully.
    My question is:
    1. Has anyone else experienced this and managed to solve the problem?
    2. How can I downgrade to 10.9.2? I don't have time machine backup but i have bootable usb with 10.9.2. Will it help?
    All best,
    Goran

    When you have the problem, note the exact time: hour, minute, second.   
    These instructions must be carried out as an administrator. If you have only one user account, you are the administrator.
    ☞ Launch the Console application in any of the following ways:
    ☞ Enter the first few letters of its name into a Spotlight search. Select it in the results (it should be at the top.)
    ☞ In the Finder, select Go ▹ Utilities from the menu bar, or press the key combination shift-command-U. The application is in the folder that opens.
    Open LaunchPad. Click Utilities, then Console in the icon grid.
    The title of the Console window should be All Messages. If it isn't, select

  • Open CL errors with AMD Radeon HD 6750M, on Premiere Pro CC 7.0 and 7.0.1

    I am on a Macbook Pro early-2011 with a 1Gb AMD Radeon HD 6750M - I noticed this in Console, repeating constantly while loading Premiere as well as all throughout my edit session and export:
    MacBook-Pro.local Adobe Premiere Pro CC[770]: [CL_INVALID_OPERATION] : OpenCL Error : Failed to retrieve device information! Invalid enumerated value!
    Meanwhile in project settings my Video Rendering and Playback settings is happily set to Mercury Playback Engine GPU Acceleration (Open CL) - not greyed out like in CS6. Someone else mentioned having the same open CL errors but said it only occured when they updated to 7.0.1 - however, I have seen the exact open cl errors on both 7.0 and 7.0.1 (every string is identical except the "[770]" which can have other values like [270] or [1060] etc. I have graphics switching off and my AMD Radeon HD 6750M shows up fine in system profiler. I am worried there might be something wrong with it, but other than in Premiere CC, I am having no problems.
    Can anyone shed some light on this? Is it a bug? Is there any other info I can provide that would help clarify anything?
    I've spent way too many hours and late nights trying to troubleshoot but couldn't come up with anything, so any help would be more than appreciated!
    Thanks,
    Ronny

    Anybody from Adobe have any insight? Are you aware of this? I hope this is being looked into soon because I have a wave of TEDx HD videos to edit coming up in less than a week and just need some reassurance. Should I be worried?
    Maybe the problem is with Apple's Console not logging it correctly, since my Mercury (CPU) option is not grayed out and still selected.

  • AMD Radeon HD 6750M + 2007 Cinema Display = compatible?

    Hello,
    I'm trying to figure out if the AMD Radeon HD 6750M 512 MB graphics card in my MBP will work with an old Apple Cinema Display 20-inch DVI Early 2007 (a1081). I know I need a mini display port to DVI converter to get it connected, but not sure if the graphics card is compatible. Does anyone know?
    Any help is mucho appreciated, thanks!

    Yes, it will work. I have the same model with the same GPU and I use my machine with an Apple Thunderbolt Display. Note that the 512MB card is the bare minimum for some Photoshop features (3D rendering).
    I wish that I had purchased a 1GB card, but the 512MB card will push the monitor just fine.

  • AMD Radeon HD 6750M on my MacBookPro8,3 (early 2011)

    Hi, the drivers are showing out of date for the AMD Radeon HD 6750M Graphics adapter in my MacBookPro8,3 (early 2011).
    When running the new and impressive looking EA Battlefied 3 in Bootcamp, it repeatedly reports each and everytime when it is first run that my Graphics adapter/card/GPU etc drivers are currently very old at 11.1 where'as version 11.9 is currently available. Searching on the internet reveals that versions 11.10 are in existence and there's even occassional reference to 11.11 on some sites.
    The Battlefield 3 game does surprising still run and the graphics (when not moving) are something to behold on the beauty of a Mac, however it does unfortunately lag with the frame rate suffering. Its not so much of a case with having to tweak/adjust the graphics options as there isnt much difference from low to high, nor low res to full 1920x1200 res. However it is mentioned on some websites that the driver versions around 11.9 (11.8 to 11.10 I think) apparently address issues and improve frame-rate with Battlefield 3 and other Apps/Games.
    Will Apple be likely to help many of us by releasing a Graphics driver update very soon for the AMD Radeon HD 6750M - for Bootcamp Win 7 x64 as well as OS X Lion?
    Or is it even possible to install and incorporate the latest AMD Catalyst 11.10 driver software for my MacBookPro8,3 under Bootcamp?
    Or are many of us regrettably stuck! (until Apple release an update of coarse)

    Post copied from previous discussion thread https://discussions.apple.com/message/17117482#17117482
    This may be an old post, but for those still looking for an answer you can get the 13.12 (December 2013) AMD graphics driver from https://www.dropbox.com/sh/915fpdtgbgoksct/kOY7bKHgKq Select "Download->Download as .zip".
    I only modded the driver for the windows 7 64-bit install, so if you using windows 8 under bootcamp you'll have to follow the included instructions yourself.
    Please let me know/like this post if this works for you. (It would be great if you could report whether it worked based on using Win 7 or Win 8)

  • AMD Radeon HD 6750M new updates for Battlefield 3

    Hello,
    I have a AMD Radeon HD 6750M, 1024 MB video card in a i7, 2.2 Ghz Macbook Pro.
    Battlefield 3 is coming up and I want it to install it on my bootcamp. I read the AMD Radeon HD 6750M needs the new update. It is not possible to download and install this? Is there a way that mac provides these update with the software update tool in bootcamp so that the new AMD Radeon HD 6750M update can be installed?
    regards,
    Output31

    Thank you "bios" on the link you've shared
    I just wanted to say that "I installed Need for speed the run, and it was asking for a newer driver than the installed 11.1 (the one from apple bootcamp support), and I used the linked file you've mentioned and wala need for speed works like charm. However, when I play the game for about 20 minutes I can see the Magsafe green light turns orange i.e.. the MacBook Pro is not satisfied by the 85 Watt comming from the Magsafe and it is taking some additional power from battery to cover the power graphics consumption.
    So, either the driver linked is not the final release, and AMD or Apple should update it with an optimized one OR the 85 Watt Magsafe is not the perfect match for a 15" MBP.
    Thanks again

  • AMD Radeon HD 6750M performance Issues

    Hey all, since the update to CC I have had significant decrease in performance with all types of footage using Premiere Pro CC. Before the update I could cut R3D footage no problem in large sequences, now playback is even difficult, as well as other types of footage. Is there any known issues with these cards since the update? I am on a mac, 16gb of ram and have the
    AMD Radeon HD 6750M. Appreciate any help in regaining that performance, as cutting this way is frustrating and time consuming.

    I don't know of any significant changes that would affect playback. Have you tried the normal troubleshooting steps, such as, trashing preferences, deleting media preview cache files, cleaning the media database cache, repairing permissions, etc.? Tell me, is your 6750M the one with 512 MB VRAM or 1 GB VRAM?

  • AMD Radeon HD 6750M - Color Profile?

    Hi.
    When my graphic mode switches from Intel HD Graphics 3000 to AMD Radeon HD 6750M, the OSX color looks very strange.
    It has kind of a blue fog. Looks like a completely miss configured color profile. But I already tried to adjust that without success.
    If I start a game, the color looks fine within the game.
    OSX 10.8.1
    All software updates are installed.
    This only happens after I reinstalled OSX on my new SSD drive.
    Any idea what the problem could be?
    Thanks

    Hey guys.. I hit this problem tonight after trying for several hours to open Adobe PS CS5.
    Photoshop worked earlier today and i have made no changes on my PC since running PS again.
    I am running Windows 7 Service Pack 1 64bit
    I have tried Pressing CTRL+SHIFT+ALT to delete the Adobe Photoshop Settings File with no success.
    I have rebooted my computer several times.

  • Bugs in photoshop CS5

    Hi,
    Using Photoshop CS5 > Smudge Tool
    When smudging any object inwards, it introduces weird colors, darken the pixels as well. I have tried using different brushes, and changing all the options but no avail. I need to know whether if I'm doing wrong.
    Secondly, while transforming any object (Ctrl+T) if I right click, I find some useful options disabled (Distort, perspective, Warp and Content-Aware scale)
    Thanks in advance for any help
    Regards

    Can you give a screen shot of the first "bug"?
    The second one may be due to limitations of some image modes. What  mode are you dealing with?

  • Persistent bug in Photoshop CS5

    Is anyone having problems with loading a large number of files into  Photoshop cs5?
    I have a Mac Pro 2.8 8-core 2008 model, osx 10.6.4, and a gtx 285  graphics card and 16gb ram.
    Every time I try to open a large series of photos (not huge files but,  say, 100 files or so) in Photoshop cs5, the computer screen goes into a  flickering glitch and everything freezes. The only way out is to turn  the computer off.
    This happens every time.
    It doesn't happen with cs3, which is also on the same machine.
    Can anyone please advise on whether this is a cs5 bug or perhaps a  mismatch with my gtx 285, or even having both versions of Photoshop on  the same machine?
    Thanks.

    Apple put out an update to fix this exact problem, which they introduced in MacOS 10.6.4.    How is that "one company blames another"?
    Either their update didn't really fix the problem, or there was a problem with the install of their update on your system.
    Applications cannot cause the sort of error you are describing -- only the driver or hardware could cause that.
    Your next step is to report this to Apple, and see if they can help you figure out if the graphics update was installed correctly.
    If it is installed correctly, then one of the major bugs was not fixed with the update, and Apple will have to address that.
    In the short term, you can minimize the likelihood of this occurring by disabling OpenGL drawing in Photoshop (and thus minimizing use of the broken OpenGL code in the OS graphics drivers).  But that will not completely eliminate the problems, because the OS also uses the GPU for some drawing, and other applications can see the same problems (games were affected worse than Photoshop).
