Can Photoshop Cs6 Use all 12 Cores ?

Hi,
   I'm purchasing a new Mac Pro 12 Core Desktop and I was wondering can Cs6 use all 12 cores of the processor  ? Also, How much real ram can photoshop use ?
Thanks

You can read about it in this page: http://helpx.adobe.com/photoshop/kb/optimize-performance-photoshop-cs4-cs5.html
The more cores you use, the less you get from each additional core. Therefore, Photoshop doesn’t run four times as fast on a computer with 16 processor cores as on a computer with four cores. For
As far as Memory goes, 64-bit version of Photoshop CS6 can use as much RAM as you have installed on your computer.

What will really make a difference apart from RAM and processor is your Hard Drive itself. Faster drive equals lower processing latency, resulting in faster saves and so on. Your scratch disk highly depends on the hard drive that you use.

  • Can Photoshop CS6 automatically reopen previously open files on Mountain Lion?

    Mac OS X 10.8 introduced a new behavior - apps could automatically open the documents that were open in the last app execution.
    Can Photoshop CS6 be configured to behave this way?

    David,
    How about Chrome, bbedit (even back to version 9.1.1), PixelMator, others, none of which are 'Apple Apps'.
    The Resume and Autosave APIs have been around since 10.7 (2011).
    Maybe if Adobe wasn't so busy trying to shove us all into a rental model they'd have time to consider implementing OS APIs that have existed for more than 2 years.

  • Currently using Lightroom 5 as a standalone on a mac and two windows machines one desktop one laptop. with CC can i still use all the machines or do i have to take out an individual license for each?

    with CC can i still use all the machines or do i have to take out an individual license for each?

    Your LR5 license allows for activated installations on two machines.  Of those two machine, only one can be using the licensed software at a given time.  The same applies with CC, except with CC you won't be able to sneak in the third machine.  What you can do though with CC is have it installed on all three and sign in and out of the different machines as needed.
    If you intend to be using all three machines at the same time then you do need three separate licenses/subscriptions to be in compliance with the license agreement.

  • Premiere Pro is not using all core power for rendering of timeline

    I have got PremierePro CS5.5 and i7 920 and nvidia GTX 295. When i edit my footage (cineform) everything is fine becouse i am using CUDA boost but when i am trying to render timeline i saw on my CPU & GPU Monitor that rendering is using maybe about 10% of power of all cores (8 cores). How to do to use all cores power when i am rendering my timeline?

    When i am using cuda i work much faster with fullhd timeline than i am working with cpu. I thought that cuda is accelerating only editing of timeline becouse line is always yellow and when i am using rendering line is green and system is using cpu power. So i thought that cuda is acceleration only for editing without rendering acceleration. When i would use cuda for rendering acceleration system should work faster than with cpu rendering and it`s not true.
    What is fastest way to turning off CUDA (to turn it on for a while).
    Thanks a lot...

    Do you mean through iCloud?  You need to go to settings > iCloud and "delete account" and then sign in with the newly named account.  You'll want to do similar for facetime, messages, and store.

  • Can iMovie 11 use quad core?

    Does anyone know, if iMovie 11 can make use of all of the 4 cores on the new Macbook Pro I7 processor? I am thinking of buying either the quad core, or the dual core Macbook Pro for iMovie related work.
    I asked this at the Apple store, but they were not sure.
    Thank you.

    I am using a MacPro (3/2014) with 6 cores and 16GB of RAM. 
    Encoding a 58 minute video in SD is estimated to take 1 hr 10 minutes. 
    While the CPU monitor shows the "ProTranscoderToolsb" running at 460% and I'Movie at 58%, it is not clear to me whether this means that the I'Movie is using multiple cores (i.e. 5 of my 6 cores) and is multi-threaded.
    Does anyone have an answer for this.
    I was surprised that this render would take this long as I upgraded my old MacPro (2008 1st generation but with 4 cores) precisely for the additional rendering power.
    My impression is like some others, that if I'Movie is using multi-threading, it is not using it very efficiently.  Apple needs to address this on all of its products.  It is ironic that Adobe (Photoshop 6 and CC which rip) appear to use the new MacPro's power more effectively than Apple software products.

  • Bridge CC / How to use all cores to generate preview images?

    Hi!
    Is there anyway to tell Brdige, that it should use all my cores to generate the preview images?
    Actually it uses only 25% of my CPU performance. I've a Intel Core i7-2600 CPU @ 3,4 GHZ, with four cores and enabled hyperthreading, also eight virtual CPUs.
    At least it could be FOUR times faster, if it would use all available cores, but so I get one preview per second (12 MP RAWs). So I've to wait in case of 1.000 RAWs round about 15 minutes. If would use all CPUs, which are available, it could increase speed up to 4 minutes. More then 10 minutes saved.
    As there any chance, or does Adobe have no interest, like it has no interest to speed up LightRoom?
    If there is any chance, I would be very pleased.
    Thanks

    It's really frustrating:
    While Adobe Camera RAW is able to process different images in parallel and speeding up the process.
    Other teams of Adobe are still telling me, that it's impossible to process several images in parallel and speeding up the Bridge thumbnail and preview generating process:

  • Bridge CC / How to use all cores to generate JPEG images?

    Hi!
    Is there anyway to tell Bridge, that it should use all my cores to generate the JPEG images out of RAWs?
    Actually it uses less then 25% of my CPU performance. I've a Intel Core i7-2600 CPU @ 3,4 GHZ, with four cores and enabled hyperthreading, also eight virtual CPUs.
    At least it could be FOUR times faster, if it would use all available cores, but so I get one preview per second (12 MP RAWs). So I've to wait in case of 100 RAWs round 3:30 minutes. If would use all CPUs, which are available, it could increase speed less then 1 minutes.
    In my case, I've to create often up too 500 JPEGs in one go. So instead of 17-18 minutes it would take less then 5 minues. 12 minutes less!
    I just wonder, why I bought a good PC, if Adobe is not using the power of the CPUs and tries to work parellel instead of seriel.
    As there any chance, or does Adobe have no interest, like it has no interest to speed up LightRoom?
    If there is any chance, I would be very pleased.
    Thanks

    Sorry, I could not know, that issue is caused by the same flaw in the software:

  • Photoshop CS6 used on an extended desktop

    Very strange reactions from Photoshop CS6 when used on my Lenovo ThinkPad in an extended desktop situation. Any attempt to open an image in Photoshop is unsuccessful in showing the actual image, despite the layers box shoing the thumbnail, the "open ifle" text box at the top indicating it is open, and the image details box also indicating correct data for the image file.  If I close down extended desktop Photoshop works just fine. If I extend the desktop once Photoshop is running, I can move the open window to the extended desktop and it also works fine. Once I close Photoshop I am back to square one. Any insights appreciated.

    That's a pretty solid sign of a display driver problem.
    Is your laptop using an Intel GPU?  Intel drivers have traditionally been kind of iffy with regard to accelerating Photoshop.
    You may be able to find an updated display driver for your setup that gives you better results.  Exhaust this possibility first.
    Or you might find that Photoshop is made usable by turning off the [  ] Use Graphics Processor setting in Edit - Preferences - Performance.  You lose some features with this approach, however.

  • Can photoshop cs6 ext. student version be installed on more than one computer?

    You can have it installed on hundreds of computers. Unless they changed the licensing from CS 5.5, you can only have it activated one machine.
