BUG: Palette sizes are forgotten after Photoshop CS4 is restored from minimize or restarted! Can this be fixed?

Allen, re-posting the same stuff will not change anything. The answers have been provided in another thread already.

Installing Illustrator CS3 after Photoshop CS4?

Hi all,
Currently I have Photoshop CS4 installed and working well on my Windows XP system.
Would installing other, but older (CS3) apps such as Illustrator or Dreamweaver interfere with this setup or might it break things? I suppose Photoshop CS4 itself would not be affected, but how about Bridge and other behind-the-scenes interop things?
I'd hate to find out afterwards things like color management would be broken or inconsistent...

My InDesign is crashing, even after reinstall - I Have CR2.
And my Adobe Updater appears to be disfunctional.
Any work arounds?

OpenGL bug with Snow Leopard in Photoshop CS4? distorted pixels

Hi all,
Has anyone encountered this bug before? If I open any image or start a new document and hit F to change screen mode I am plagued with random purple pixels with more being displayed as I make the document bigger (see attached screenshots).
However if I turn off OpenGL support, the problem completely disappears. This problem never occured with OS X 10.5.
Macbook Pro Unibody
2.93 GHZ
4GB ram
OSX 10.6.1
GeForce 9600M GT 512MB
Thanks,
Andrew

Yes, we have a handful of bugs filed with Apple about similar issues introduced in MacOS 10.6.
We're all waiting for Apple to release the fixes.

The nVidia 258.96 drivers crash Photoshop CS4 (64bit)

I have the latest nVidia drivers installed yesterday and I noticed that PS CS4 crashes within 15minutes of use (by crashing the display driver and then crashing itself). Any solutions for this issue? I am an advanced user (11years of PC usage and IT-student for 5 years etc.) so this is either PS or nVidia driver issue, have posted about this now to both manufactor forums. I try next to just disable the GL acceleration from PS settings for possible temp. solution for this. Would love to know what's causing this.
PS. The gfx card temps are fine etc.
Related specs:
Windows 7 Pro 64bit
ASUS P5Q Deluxe mobo
E8500 @ 4ghz cpu
MSI GTX 275 gfx card
4gb of ram

As a workaround try the various Advanced OpenGL options. There was a time a long while back when I was using CS4 and a (then-current) older driver set, and as I recall switching to Basic OpenGL settings helped me work around a problem that was later fixed in newer drivers.
I've noticed that OpenGL implementations are pretty actively being maintained by all the video card makers in the time after Photoshop CS4 and CS5 released. It's good that a serious application has put some real pressure on the driver makers to tidy up the software. OpenGL is actually getting to where you can rely on it now.

After a re-install, it is impossible in Photoshop CS4 Extended to give a preset size to the Crop Tool. How can I het it back?

After a re-install of Photoshop CS4 Extended, because of problems with my iMac, it is impossible to give a preset size to the Crop Tool.How is that possible - and how can I repair that?

Did you trash the Photoshop's preferences before re-installing?
Reinstalling without trashing the preferences is futile, as you still have all the corruption there.
Quit Photoshop now and trash preferences:
Hold down Command, Option, and Shift keys while starting up Photoshop. A dialog box will appear asking if you wish to delete the preferences/settings file. Click on yes.

Photoshop CS4 "licensing for product has stopped working" after restoring backup to new laptop

I purchased a new macbook pro running os x 10.9.3 and restored from a Time Capsule backup from my older laptop also running the same OS version. (Migration assistant was not working and this was Apple's recommendation). Now Photoshop CS 4 gives the following error "150:30 licensing for this product has stopped working". I've tried the Adobe recommended steps i found on their site short or reinstalling.
So my question is "what's the phone number for adobe support?"

800-833-6687 Monday—Friday, 5am—7pm PT
I have had this same problem before. The problem is that restoring from backup or migrating Photoshop CS4 breaks the licensing.
You normally get a 150:30 error.
Two ways to fix this:
10.7 and above: Run the python script in Terminal to repair this, or reinstall CS4 from your disks.
If you need help on this let me know.

Photoshop CS4 will not launch after upgrade to 10.6

I just upgraded to Snow Leopard and found that Adobe Photoshop CS4 crashes every time during launch, moments after the splash screen disappears. I ran the Adobe Updater to see if there was a patch for this, but no go. I've already upgraded to 10.6.1 to no avail.
Photoshop is my livelihood and I'd sure appreciate some help getting this fixed before it starts to cost me! Any ideas?
Thanks a lot,
-i-

Here's the fix I found, by way of an explanation...
Snow Leopard prompted me on my first startup with the following error:
"There is a conflict with the _______ font file. This font file contains a font name that conflicts with a system font required by Mac OS X to display onscreen text. You should move this font file to the Trash."
The fonts it said were conflicting: Helvetica, HelveticaNeue.dfont, Lucida Grande, and Monaco. I figured Snow Leopard probably wanted to replace these fonts with newer versions, and so I clicked "Move to Trash" on all four.
Apparently 10.6 trashed these fonts but didn't replace them. This was causing Photoshop to crash on load.
So I restored my ~/Library/Fonts folder from a backup made just before upgrading and this time after a reboot I said "Allow Conflict" on all four dialog boxes and launched Photoshop... everything is back to normal!
Not sure what kind of "conflict" it's referring to, but apparently moving these font files to the trash as OS X prompted me to do broke a number of apps. Should I report this as a bug?
Thanks for the ideas!

Photoshop CS4 brush cursor bug on Thinkpad T61p

I've got a Thinkpad T61p with a Nvidia Quadro FX 570M onboard (driver version: 6.14.11.7471). There seems to be a bug with the graphics driver in conjunction with the new Adobe Photoshop CS4. Photoshop now uses GPU-optimization with more brush capabilities. Unfortunately the cursor clips when using brush-sizes larger than 64px. One can see the bug on the nvidia cs4 promotion "brush resizing" at http://www.nvidia.com/object/adobe_photoshop.html. Nvidia corrects this bug in newer driver versions, but lenovo only offers a WinXP-display-driver from 2008-04-28.
Does anyone know any workround? I've tested somo older forceware drivers (178.24) with partial success. The display bug in Photoshop is fixed, but e.g. After Effects CS4 crashes while detecting the GPU.
Message Edited by mikey on 10-23-2008 03:20 AM

Today I've installed the latest Forceware Drivers 180.60 from http://www.laptopvideo2go.com/ to test the bug behaviour.
The brush cursor now seems to be able to handle big brush sizes but the performance is reduced noticable.When painting inside a new document the rendering of the brush path is done after painting over the area, even when using small brush sizes.
So let's wait until Nvidia/Lenovo roll out a new driver.

Photoshop CS4 Trial Bugs - Eraser & Text problems

Hows everybody doing...I recently downloaded the Photoshop CS4 Extended Trial and installed it on my computer...I am noticing some bugs and im not really sure if its just a bug in the trial version which will be fixed when i buy the program or if there was an error with the install...
I dont have screenshots at the moment since im not on the computer having the issue but i can get them if needed...
First lets start with the eraser tool...When i set the eraser tool as a size of say about 10px it works fine...However, if i zoom in on the image above its nautral size i start to lose the eraser...When i say lose the eraser i mean you can no longer seen the round area which will be erased..When you zoom in part of the circle disappears...It will still erase and area of the set size but its sort of hard to do erasing on detailed images when you cant see the whole eraser....
More bugs with the eraser....If i set the eraser to a larger size, say 30px or more, i right off the bat start seeing less of the eraser area....It will go from a whole circle down to something like a half moon with only half the circle being displayed...
This may be a little hard to understand so if need be i will get some screenshots of what im talking about later....
I am also having a problem with the text...For starters, i cant scroll through the text...When i enter text and highlight it and highlight the fonts i would expect to be able to scroll through the fonts while watching the actual text change on thet screen....I am unable to do that, i highlight the text and the fonts and CS4 will let me scroll maybe 4-5 fonts and then it just stops and wont scroll anymore...
Another issue im having with the font is the size....Whenever i enter text it is extremely small...Even if im working with a 200px x 200px image if i set my font at say 75px its tiny, tiny enough to where i cant even see it to highlight it....There appears to be something wrong with the sizing of the text...Just to get text to show up normally, at a readable size, i have to set the font size to 800px+ and this is on images which are only like 600px wide and 300px tall...Usually a font of 800px would fill up this image but when i do it the 800px font shows up like a 36px font...
Like i said if this is all to hard to understand i can get some screen shots later on...I wanna make sure this is something which can be fixed before i go ahead and drop 700+ on the program...

Yes i installed the patch...That was the first thing i did, before checking the video driver...The patch didnt fix any of the problems im having...The video driver update did however fix the eraser/brush issue...
I did what you said in post #1 about un-checking the option listed....When i did that nothing changed for me....
I have some more details about the scrolling issue though....From what i am able to find it seems that if i just enter digits i am able to scroll through the entire list of fonts and see a live preview of every single one....
With any sort of text it will only allow me to scroll through 5-6 fonts...You can see that it wants to scroll more when i hold the arrow down cause you can see the blue hightlight flashing and the words trying to change but it just wont go any further...At times when i hold the arrow down to scroll through the fonts it will scroll through 5-6 and then all of a sudden just go white and wont let me scroll up or not...At that point i have to select the font list and pick a font

Photoshop CS4 Menu toolbar display bug and fullscreen slowness...

http://img384.imageshack.us/img384/8202/menutoolsbugee3.gif
I'm having a display bug with the menu toolbar in Photoshop CS4 Extended. Notice the area of tools is gone and replaced by random pixels? This happens whenever I enter the fullscreen mode that hides the interface. And when I exit that fullscreen mode, that bug appears and doesn't fix itself until I restart Photoshop. Can this be fixed?
Image view rotation also happens much slower than normal in that fullscreen mode when interface is hidden. But performs normally after I bring back the interface.
I'm on WinXP, Athlon 64 4000+, 3GB ram, GeForce 6800 GT video card [driver 169.21]. I'm not sure if this is a video driver bug or CS4 bug.

Yeah, Dave, I can understand how that can happen. I've seen that sort of weirdness when I've seriously overtaxed my hardware.
 
 Had way too much running all at once yesterday, switched over to Firefox, and clicking on folders in the Bookmarks bar, I had 4 bookmark/folder menus dropped simultaneously.
 
 I managed to grab a screenshot with 2 of them showing, but man! You shoulda seen it with 4!
 
 I ESC'ed out, quit GarageBand (had a song project of several hundred MB going) and all was fixed.

Photoshop cs4 and cs5 and after effects 7.0

Hello my name is mel
My question ! I'm working with photoshop cs4 and after effects 7.0 building a web page and this going to be my first page . I got the header in and the footer also,
the main body is going to be this avi file. after effect project that I want to run when the page opens. I want to slice up and send to DW for coding . my question is how do you slice this page up and transport it to DW.cs5 and do you have to code the avi in html and css to run when the page is open. Because as now when you run the avi in photoshop nothing elese on the page works , just the avi runs when you turn off the avi then every thing is back normal .to run the avi you have go to the video part of psd and click on the start button . any idea or any suggestion how to proceded would help
thanks
mel

we were told in design school to use ps to design your site then transport to DW to code??
Maybe I misunderstood you.... You do the graphics in PS, that's of course what everyone does and then you code in DW, but by all means, you do not operate on the atrocious code Save for Web would spit out from PS. Trying to fix it is more trouble than starting with a blank page in DW and inserting the background and otehr images manually. And you definitely misunderstand "animation" vs. "video" After Effects is just a means to turn animation into video just as Flash is a means of creating dynamically rendered animation or interactive content. Both have their uses, but without knowing what kind of animation or video you actually need to produce, this is going nowhere. It may turn out that all you need is an animated GIF, after all... Furthermore your AE 7 is dated and does not output good H.264 or FLV directly compared to more recent versions, so this opens up yet anotehr can of worms when it comes to producing good quality web video at small file sizes... In any case, you still require a lot of reading. Too complex a topic for which nobody can provide a tippy-toe tutorial and without understanding even some basic concepts, the most beautifully designed PS grafik will end up being nothing more than a useless lump of pixels on a web server...

Photoshop CS4 crashes after starting up

Hi all,
Before I buy Photoshop CS4 Extended, I wanted to install the trial first.
The install was succesfully finished, so i started PS.
When i choose for making a new file, i see the screen where you can select the size of the picture.
When i click OK, Windows says: Photoshop CS4 has stopped working.
Now I only can close the program or debug. Debugging doesn't help.
Running in XP mode of disable visual themes doesn't help also..
I'm running dual boot (Vista Ultimate and Windows 7 Ultimate), and on windows 7 it all works great.
Does anyone have a solution for this weird problem?
My computer specs are:
Windows Vista Ultimate SP1 32-bit (fully updated)
Asus P5Q3 Motherboard with 4GB DDR3 RAM
Asus ATI HD 4870 1G Dark Knight graphics card (with the latest driver update - may 15 2009)
Intel Core 2 Quad Q9550 (2,8 Ghz)
Other adobe programs just runs fine, but PS keeps crashing..
Im sorry for my bad English..
I hope someone can help me with this, i really like to purchase PS and work with it..
Regards,
Tim
edit:
by the way, photoshop cs2 and cs3 worked fine..

Hi,
Thanks for the fast relpies. I like to hear my English is OK. I've got to make my English school exams next week!
I checked the permissions of the Photoshop folders in my user directory (if you mean the 'read only' and 'hide' things..?)
All directories were 'read only', but when I uncheck this, it comes back after I click on the properties of the directory again.
Anyway, my account has administrator rights and my UAC is off. (the 'do you really want to' blahblah.. and the virtual directories)
So I don't think the problem is based on permissions.. It also isn't my virusscanner, because when I turn it off (I have Kaspersky Internet Security 2009) the problem still isn't solved.
Maybe useful: I didn't add any plug-ins for PS. I only installed it.
Yes, it will also crash if i input a arbitrary resolution.
Even if i want to load a picture.. jpg or psd, it keeps crashing.
When I select a picture and click OK, it will load.. but before i can even move my mouse.. it crashes.
So, when I see the 'crash screen' of Windows Vista, i can see the picture at the back.
I also checked the event viewer, and there i can see the application error i also got in PS.
I can't find anything about the licensing service. What is the name of this service? Then I can check if it's on in the task manager.
I updated PS as well. But still, no results. I attached the error message and translated someting in English. (my Windows is Dutch).
I really hope you can help me with this!
Regards,
Tim
Edit: I think I forgot the most important!! When I start PS, there comes a warning, before the 30 day trial screen.
It says I've got to download the newest drivers for my graphics card.. but I allready did that. It also says it will turn off the GPU settings in PS.
When I turn this back on, PS gives an error after the loading screen. So then i can't see the interface then. When I restart it, PS automaticly turned off the GPU settings, and it is back to the old problem. I also attached another picture in this post, and tried to translate it. But when you see this screen, maybe you will recognize it.

After installing OS X ML, Photoshop CS4 crashes constantly, any clue how to fix this or why it is happening?

I downloaded and installed OS X Mountain Lion last night and everything was working normally. I started working in Photoshop CS4 this morning (the first time after installing ML) and when I try to drag a layer to create a new layer, or when I try to move a layer to another PS document, it shows the beach ball of death and then crashes. It has crashed on other occasions, not just doing these actions. Before installing ML I haven't really ever had a problem with PS crashing. I reinstalled PS earlier today to see if that would help but it still crashes. Any ideas on why this is happening or how I can fix it?
Thanks for any replies, in advance.

While CS4 is getting a bit old in the tooth now, Adobe says there are no known issues as of the 25th !
