ATI Radeon 7000 series and Photoshop CS5 and CS6

Interesting to note, Running windows 7 64bit I have bought a new graphics card, it is an ATI Radeon HD7900 bought to run Photoshop CS5 and 6 unfortunately the graphics card is not displayed in the photoshop prefrences, I checked the list of cards supported by Adobe and the Radeon 7000 series was listed.....I rang Adobe who states that the HD7000 is not supported, so until (if ever ) it is I cannot use the full functionality of Photoshop CS5 extended. I'm not sure if all the Radeon HD cards are supported or not, but maybe check before you invest in a new card.

The Radeon 7000 series cards should work fine with both CS5 and CS6, but as Steve noted there is a problem with the current drivers for the card. Until the 12.7 driver is released next month, I'd suggest using the following driver:
http://support.amd.com/us/kbarticles/Pages/AMDCatalyst126beta.aspx
Use the control panel on your system to completely uninstall your current driver before installing the 12.6 beta driver. Please let us know if the beta driver resolves the issues you're seeing.
Thanks,
Adam

Adobe Extension Manager and Photoshop CS5 and MAC OS 10.7.5

Even after reinstalling and updating the Extension Manager for CS5, when downloading Photoshop extensions I get the message: "You do not have the appropriate permissions required to perform this operation. Contact your system administrator to obtain permission." I'm the sole user and the administrator on this Mac. (OS 10.7.5).
I'm stumped and would appreciate any assistance.

Hi there! Because the forum you originally posted in is for beginners trying to learn the basics of Photoshop, I moved your question to the Downloading, Installing, Setting Up forum, where you'll get more specialized help.

Radeon 7790 and Photoshop CS5

My graphics card is dying. To be exact, the fan on my old Radeon 4650 card is making strange noises from time to time and when it does, the temperature on the card goes up. It is time for a replacement.
After looking at the various cards, I settled on the Sapphire 100356OCL Radeon HD 7790 OC 1GB DDR5 PCI-Express Video Card seen here:
http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16814202029
Beside normal display tasks, I have two programs that use Open CL on the graphics card - Photoshop CS5 and WinZip.
Is anyone using any Radeon 7790 based card with Photoshop CS5? If so, have you encountered any difficulties with Open CL activated in CS5?

I'm most impressed with the VisionTek brand of ATI cards myself.
I have a VisionTek ATI Radeon 7850 card, myself, and it works flawlessly (now that ATI has released a good driver, Catalyst 13.4) with Photoshop. I don't use Photoshop CS5 much any more, as I'm on CC, but I have fired it up and it does everything it's supposed to in Advanced mode with this card.
I can't say whether the experience with one card can apply to a different model... Probably not, at least not completely. But since you're looking to buy a new card, maybe you might want to consider a 7850. It's a little more future-proof as well, as it has 2GB of DDR5. I wouldn't recommend it if I weren't having most excellent results with it myself.
This is a good site from which to compare GPU power... http://www.videocardbenchmark.net/high_end_gpus.html
Personally I'd stay away from "OC" kinds of things... A few frames per second more in gameplay doesn't translate to anything useful when running Photoshop. What you want is solid and reliable performance.

Nvidia Quadro 600, GeForce GTX 560 Ti or cheaper for Photoshop CS5 and Lightroom 3?

Hello,
I am a professional photographer and I am setting up a new PC (i7, Windows 7 64bit). But I have some troubles to choose the graphic card.
I use Lightroom and Photoshop CS5 3, no video editing.
Between the Open GL, Open CL, CUDA accelerations etc ... professional graphic cards models and consumer ones I am lost!
The Nvidia GeForce GTX 560 Ti seems more powerful and more versatile but I tell myself that if Nvidia has professional range there must be a reason.
So in Photoshop CS5 and Lightroom 3 what would be the best: GeForce GTX 560 Ti or Nvidia Quadro 600?
http://www.geforce.com/Hardware/GPUs/geforce-gtx-560ti/specifications
http://www.nvidia.com/object/product-quadro-600-us.html
Any reason to get a Quadro 2000?
http://www.nvidia.com/object/product-quadro-2000-us.html
Or the graphic card doesn’t matter much and I should take an entry-level GeForce to enjoy the HDMI and the silence? Which one then?
Does the Quadro 600 manages 10bits display 10bits? And the Geforce?
Any change announced with Photoshop CS6 and Ligthroom4?
The only 3D application I use is Google Earth in 3D mode, does it make any difference?
Thank you for your help.

You say "no video editing"... If that's going to be the case, and you won't use the Mercury engine in the Adobe Premiere Pro package, which needs the nVidia Cuda subsystem, then I recommend you consider the ATI brand over nVidia.
Why?
Because while neither brand's developers (ATI or nVidia) always release perfect drivers, I find ATI display drivers to be of consistently higher quality than that of nVidia releases. What this means to you is generally fewer crashes or quirks. ATI has also traditionally supported older cards into the future better than nVidia - this might matter to you in a few years.
People ask me what video card I would recommend, and right now that would be a VisionTek ATI Radeon HD 6670 1 GB GDDR5 card. I like this particular card because:
I've had 100% success with VisionTek cards in a number of different systems, not only initially but they have all run as long as I have used them, without ever breaking down.
The 6670 model uses very little power (under 70 watts) and as such doesn't stress your computer's power supply, need a separate power connection, nor make a lot of fan noise.
It's not the fastest card made for 3D gaming, but it's inexpensive and excellent for Photoshop. No matter what you choose, you should get a card that scores over 500 on the Passmark GPU benchmark, ideally over 1000: http://www.videocardbenchmark.net/
The ATI Catalyst display driver implementations for the 4670/5670/6670 line of cards have been good and solid.
1 GB of on-card memory seems to be a good size, even for editing a lot of images, and GDDR5 memory provides faster access than DDR3.
You should know that besides using Photoshop heavily, I also develop OpenGL-based software as well, so I have some additional insight into driver implementations.

ATI Radeon drivers problems (both open-source and proprietary)

Hi 2 All!!
I have a problem with my ATI Radeon 9000-series. The open source drivers (xf86-video-ati) don't work very good for me, my monitor's fresh rate isn't "at-top" and the monitor projection is slightly translated to the right (say 8-12 pixels). So I've tried to build the official drivers with ABS, all is gone successfully, except for some worrying warnings, but I thought that it's normal. I have a customized kernel, build through ABS... So, when I've tried to load the fglrx module it says:
# modprobe fglrx
FATAL: Error inserting fglrx (/lib/modules/2.6.27-ARCH/video/fglrx.ko): Cannot allocate memory
Please, help me! My machine is slow, I can't run any OpenGL-accelerated application, even Quake III!!! If you can suggest me how to improve the performance and how to resolve problems with open-source drivers, it also would be very good... Thank you and sorry for my poor English please.

I had some problems with installing ATI drivers recently (could not build fglrx module, not even manually, I had to change some installation script), but with latest driver version (8.11 I think) from ati.amd.com was everything fine (I have Radeon 9600 Pro)
Try to do this (and write here the output)
glxinfo | grep vendor
fglrxinfo
In both cases, it should write something like OpenGL...: ATI... if there will be MESA or DRI, that means that you don't have loaded your fglrx module.
If fglrxinfo output will be something like: no permission for...(should be first or second line of the output), then write this somewhere in your xorg.conf:
Section "DRI"
Mode 0666
EndSection
run:
modprobe -a fglrx - and give here the output. If there will be none, run:
lsmod | grep fglrx - to see wheter fglrx module is really loaded in kernel
if you will have no module, you can install one, type:
cd /lib/modules/fglrx/build_mod
sh make.sh
cd ../
sh make_install.sh (as root)
and post any warning or error here at forum, drivers (but not fglrx module) are installed at /usr/share/ati
After installing drivers, you also need to configure your system (notice your system that it's there), commands:
aticonfig --initial (for editing your xorg.conf)
aticonfig --overlay-type=Xv (acceleration support in xorg.conf)
Showing your xorg.conf file here is also good idea, here is mine (sections Device and Screen):

It appears the download has been successful when I look in my " Downloads " Folder but I still get a message up saying the installed version of Camera RAW won't support the Camera model ( i.e. D800 ) . What am I missing ??

You need to download and install Camera Raw 6.7.1 for CS5. Once you have downloaded it, you need to install it while CS5 is closed.
Adobe - Adobe Camera Raw and DNG Converter : For Windows : Camera Raw 6.7.1 Update

Can only draw circle and square in Illustrator CS5 and Photoshop CS5

I am experiencing a strange bug that seems to be affecting both Photoshop CS5 and Illustrator CS5. In Illustrator, when I try to draw a rectangle or ellipse I can only draw circles and squares. Also I can't change the color of selected objects. When I try to change its fill nothing happens. I can also only drag objects on the 0, 45 and 90 degree angles. Also I can no longer select off an object by clicking on the artboard. When I click on the artboard nothing happens.
Similarly in Photoshop I can only draw straight lines using the brush tool. The marquee tool is also not functioning properly. When I try to use the marquee tool the marching ants form a square but when I release the mouse it selects a rectangular portion. Strangely if I use the marquee tool and make selection I can press the shift key and add to it but this second selection's marching ants are not square but are properly rectangular.
Since the problem seems to be affecting both Illustrator and Photoshop I'm thinking it's probably some kind of system conflict or perhaps an application running in the background is affecting it. Also if I restart my mac the problem goes away. Unfortunately the problem eventually returns.
Anyway I'm pretty sure most of the suggested fixes involve systematically going through all the programs running in the background and trying to determine which if any might be affecting Illustrator and Photoshop but I just thought I'd post something in case someone else had the problem or knew of any fixes.
I'm running CS5 on a MBP.
Thanks!

Ok I figured out the problem. It was another application called teleport which lets you control 2 macs with one mouse. It requires a hot key and in my case that was the shift key. Even though it was running it was still affecting me. Had to quit it and restart. If you're having a similar problem I'd check to see you're not running any other applications that can be activated with a hot key.

I have Photoshop CS5, and use windows XP. I cannot open Bridge from photoshop, whichI have done for years. When I am in Photoshop,when it opens, I always click on the bridge icon at the bottom of the screen, and it puts me into bridge. This is not happen

I have Photoshop CS5, and use windows XP. I cannot open bridge from photoshop, which I have done for years. When I am in Photoshop, when it opens, I always click on the bridge icon at the bottom of the screen and it puts me into bridge. This is not happening, the small wheel at the bottom of the screen just keeps spinning. Its like its stuck or caught in a loop. I can't get into bridge. I tried shutting down and starting up again but the problem remains. Looking for help. Dan

Thanks for your response, I was able to open bridge from File-Browse in Bridge. This worked, but was not able to go back to the way I always opened Bridge. At least I could get to Bridge and go into Camera Raw. I never tried to open Bridge from the Start menu. The odd thing about this is, it has happened before, and to get it "unstuck" and working again, I would shut down and restart again in a few minutes, and things would go back to normal. This time it did not go back to normal after several attempts. I shut down for about 3-4 hours, restarted, and it seems to be back to normal again. I am not sure if it's a problem that is getting worse each time it happens. And yes I am using Mini Bridge in photoshop CS5. Thank you for your help. Dan

I'm using Photoshop CS5 and there is no PNG listed under format in save as.

PNG files can only be RGB - they are intended for screen viewing. If your intention is to produce a CMYK file for printing, you must use a different format, like tiff.

My student has been using Lightroom 4 with Photoshop CS5 on her Mac for well over a year. Because of the difference between the Camera raw version available to her in Photoshop CS5 and the raw process in Lightroom 4, she has been exporting her raw images

Any ideas?

My student has been using Lightroom 4 with Photoshop CS5 on her Mac for well over a year. Because of the difference between the Camera raw version available to her in Photoshop CS5 and the raw process in Lightroom 4, she has been exporting her raw images from Lightroom and choosing the "Render using Lightroom option when it popped up in the dialogue box. She has been doing this for over a year and a half without any problem. Today when she hit Command E no dialogue box appeared and the image just opened in Photoshop. I'm concerned that all of her Lightroom edits are not being rendered to Photoshop. Anyone have an idea as to how we can get the "Render using Lightroom" dialogue back?

I redownloaded my Photoshop CS5 and Camera Raw will not accept my RAW files nor will the Adobe Bridge display the picture view of these files. A message displays saying it doesn't support this camera. I have a Nikon 5100 DSLR Camera. It always displayed them in the past. How can I get it to display these photos in Bridge and open them in RAW?

I have Photoshop CS5 and my image processor and batch tool are gone. How do I get them back?
I went into edit preference and all the start up scrips are selected so what else is there?

When you installed CS5, you have a chance to register it. If you do, your serial number is on file under your Adobe (My Products). If you did not, you have no serial number on file and even worse, no proof you own it.
You do not have your serial number copied down anywhere? Hard to believe you tossed the dvd box and all the documents away.
So Help > Register might give you a chance to do this without you knowing the number.
If not, you may want to consider the Photography Plan. Creative Cloud Photography plan | Adobe Creative Cloud
