CS5 and Windows 8?

On a windows 8 system, I cannot load an image to the edit window even though it shows in the layers column. This is a new installation of CS5. Previously I was running CS3 extended with no problems

Do a search of Adobe help or of the net in general.
Start with Edit - Preferences - Performance, in Photoshop.

  • Photoshop CS5 and Windows 7 Home Premium?

    Functioning new PC/Windows 7 software in question:
    HP Pavillion Elite HPE-171f Desktop Intel Core i7-860 Processor
    6GB DDR3 Memory - 1TB Hard Drive
    NVIDIA GeForce GTX 260 with 1.8GB Dedicated Graphic Memory
    Genuine Windows 7 Home Premium 64-bit
    Question - for recent CS5 users/experts using similar hardware/software listed above:
    Soon to purchase Photoshop CS5 full package (discs).  Will it install and run well on Windows 7 Home Premium and an i7-860 processor?
    I am reading far too many negative comments regarding Photoshop CS5 installation but it seems that they are mainly due to type of system and Windows version etc.  Is the above system and Windows 7 Home Premium compatible enough for this software?
    Hoping to hear from experts or those who have a similar system as above.
    Thank you.  Much appreciated.

  • Photoshop CS5 and Windows 8.1 Screen brightness problem????

    I just recently updated to Windows 8.1, and now every time I open up Photoshop, my screen automatically lightens, lightening up my work/picture as well. It's annoying as hell. I want the picture to look normal, the way it is supposed to look. When I view the picture through my picture gallery, the picture looks normal and is in normal lighting. But every time, I open it up in Photoshop, my whole screen lightens, including the photo. Like I said, this is extremely annoying and now I can't edit my pictures properly because I can't see it's true colors. Instead, I see a brightened version of it. Is anyone else experiencing this. If so, please help me fix it. Will I have to uninstall Windows 8.1? I researched this and read in several different forums that this isn't an option. And that SUCKS! Please help, if you know how to fix this. Thanks!

    I have been using Photoshop on windows for more then 20 years on windows. Windows 95, Windows 2000, Windows XP and Windows 7.  I never installed Windows ME, Windows Vista or Windows 8.  I have never seen any version of Photoshop change a displays brightness or even the image color when scaling or going from  float to tab to single image with PS UI to full screen.  However I hardly ever use Photoshop in full screen mode.
    At different zoom views image may seem like the color change because of the scale of the image or the portion of the image that is on screen or the color of the border around the image.

  • Is there a compatibility issue between Adobe Camera Raw, CS5, and Windows 8.1?

    I have a new computer with Windows 8.1.  I installed Photoshop CS5 (which runs fine under Windows 7) but now after editing images in camera raw and clicking on the Open Images button, it takes several attempts to pass the images on to open in Photoshop CS5.  Is there a fix for this compatibility problem?

    Many thanks Catherina for your reply.
    Actually I have now discovered the cause of the problem. My speakers are Boston Acoustics BA735 digital speakers. I discovered that there was an Analog out put from the sound card and by changing the speaker connections they are now working albeit in Analog whereas previously they were connected Digitally.
    The new drivers supplied by Microsoft have obviously switched the output to analog.
    Are there any Drivers available which would allow me to revert to normal digital working.
    Thanks again

    My company is going toWindows 8. I use CS5.  Any hitches I should be aware of?
    Thanks!

    I’ve been told that CS5.5 and CS6 were both tested and should be fine. I can only personally testify for CS6 which I’ve been running without issue on the consumer preview.

  • Batch Printing psd files with CS5 and Windows 7??

    Hi,
    I have made a number of .psd files which i need to print in order and on a regular basis. All I want to do is find a way to batch print them.
    Instead of individually opening each file and selecting print, then moving onto the next file etc.
    Is there any way to do this? Can I use cmd to batch print them?
    Any help is Appreciated
    Cheers
    Dave

    Here's the worlds shortest action tutorial:
    Open an image.
    Make the Actions panel visible by clicking Window-Actions.
    Use the panel fly-out menu button (at the upper right) to create a new set, then again to create a new action.
    With the "record" (round red dot) button active at the bottom of the Actions panel, print the one image.  This will record your step(s) as an action.
    Hit the Stop button at the bottom of the Actions panel.
    Now you have recorded an action that prints an open document.  You can automate this action over multiple files with the File - Automate - Batch menu.

  • Install problem with Contribute CS5 and Windows XP SP3

    Trying to install the latest download version on an XP system (SP3).  The installer is asking for WinWord and Explorer to be closed, however neither IE nor Word are runing and in the Task Manager, no Applications are running except the Adobe Installer.
    I think it would be unwise to close e.g. explorer.exe in Task Manager -> Processes as it needs reboot to recover.
    Stuck.

    Restart your machine once and try installing Contribute.

  • InDesign CS5 and Windows 7 crash on link updating

    I've got a super-frustrating problem here, hoping someone can help.
    I tried to make my documentation workflow easier by linking an Illustrator file, using the 30 layers in the AI file along with Object States in Indesign to control image display on each page. This workflow allows me to make one AI file and setup my states in with InDesign, then I just go through each page of my document and choose the state I want, etc. Problem is, when I make a small change to the AI file I get 3000+ links that need updating. Normally I'd figure no big deal, click to fix all and go make a coffee. Problem is IND gets all the way through the long process and then crashes! My only way to update the links without crashing is to select groups much smaller than the whole and update each group. I try to update one page at a time, and that's roughly 100 links. This takes quite some time.
    Some other things to note. My document is probable a higher resolution than I needed, but going back and rebuilding smaller would take more time than I'd like to spend. Also, I deleted the preferences hoping it would fix things but it did not. Lastly, I setup display options for my links panel and clipboard handling but the settings don't seem to save next time I open IND, how do I save these prefs???

  • Photoshop CS6 upgrade and Windows Vista

    I own Photoshop CS5 and Windows Vista Home Premium 32-bit platform. Can I upgrade to CS6 ? Your upgrade ad and recent published info says that only platforms using Windows XP or Windows 7 are upgradable. What happened to Windows Vista ?

    It works on Vista, even if it is not officialyl supported. Just be prepared that things like OpenGL support, tablet drivers etc. may act funny and some features may not work at all.

  • I can't open CS5 in windows 7 it tells me "Programm is locked or you are not legitimated". Bridge and Camera draw are working ok

    I can't open CS5 in Windows 7. It tells me "application is locked or you don't have legitimation". Bridge and Camera Raw are OK.

    Hi,
         thank you for your answer.
         The original Text photoshop showing me is the following:
         Konnte ein Arbeitsvolumen nicht öffnen, weil die Datei gesperrt ist
    oder Sie keine ausreichende Berechtigung haben. Heben Sie den Schutz
    der Datei mit Hilfe des Befehls 'Eigenschaften' im Windows Explorer
    auf.
         Sorry I can tell you this only in German. 
         After Installation the Version 64 Bit couldn't work because of this
    sentence (Windows 7 has 64 Bit Version). The 32 Bit Version worked
    without problems. The next day both versions didn't work because of
    this Informatiom. Bridge and Camera raw workinjg perfect but photoshop
    (CS 5) is blocked.

  • I recently got a new HP PC 500-267c/64 bit Windows 7 computer. I installed Creative Suites CS5 and I cannot scan into Photoshop? It says I need the Twain Plug In. How do I get it?

    I have a new HP PC 500-267c/ Windows 7/64 bit c omputer. I installed Creative Suites CS5 and I cannot scan into Photoshop.
    It says I need the Plug In Twain to scan into Photoshop and can download it but nothing else. How and where
    do I find the download?

    http://helpx.adobe.com/photoshop/kb/twain-plug-photoshop-cs4-cs5.html#main_Photoshop_CS5_a nd_TWAIN
    There's no 64 bit TWAIN so you need to use the 32-bit version of Photoshop. Personally I'd recommend that you use the scanner software as a standalone application and forget TWAIN, which is rapidly becoming obsolete and more or less abandoned everywhere. All it does is call up the very same scanner software, only from within the PS UI, and tying up Photoshop in the process.

  • CS5 and CS5.5 64-bit (Flash, Illustrator, Fireworks) ALL Crash Out of Nowhere on Windows 7 64-bit

    ATTENTION ADOBE! Your CS5 and CS55 products crash continuously on Windows 7 64-Bit. And I don't mean just when I'm saving (which they do) or when I'm importing into Flash Pro (which it does); I'm saying it just completely dissappears just as if I hadn't even opened it. No error message whatsoever. Oh, and of course, ALL WORK GONE since my last save; And I don't think that I should have to save every 5 seconds!
    IS THERE A FIX FOR THIS?
    IF NOT...
    PLEASE FIX THIS ISSUE BECAUSE WE'VE SPENT A LOT OF MONEY ON YOUR PRODUCTS; AND NOW THEY'RE COSTING US EVEN MORE WITH POOR PRODUCTIVITY BECAUSE WE HAVE TO KEEP REDOING THINGS; NEVERMIND ALL OF THE FRUSTRATION IT IS CAUSING!!!
    I thought that upgrading from CS5 to CS55 might help, but no, the problem is even worse.
    FLASH, ILLUSTRATOR, and FIREWORKS ALL EXHIBIT THE SAME SYMPTOMS.

    Sorry to bother you I just thought you might hit on something if other apps were not working.
    Is everyone in your office having this issue with Flash, Fireworks or Illustrator crash? How many people?
    Did you upgrade to 64-bit from 32-bit?
    Are you using an approved OS for your hardware; i.e. Dell recommends using?
    Have you scanned your memory to see if its bad?
    Do you have your memory in the right slots in your motherboard?
    What apps are you using when Flash, Fireworks or Illustrator crash? If you are running Photoshop, Premiere or After Affects you might have to adjust their memory useage.
    When Flash, Fireworks or Illustrator crash is your system having issues?
    Have you checked the event logs in Windows to see if there are any error or critical events logged at or around the time when  Flash, Fireworks or Illustrator crash?
    Note you can also open a support ticket with Adobe on the issue and work that pretty far without paying $25 (which is not that much); if your business is losing money as you stated originally.

  • 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

  • PhotoShop CS5 with Windows 7 64 bits and/or Windows 7 32 bits

    Hello
    I just bought a new computer with an Intal QuadCore, 8 Gb of memory and Windows 7 - 64 bits edition    
    I plan to upgrade from a former Photoshop CS3 onWindows XP and it was a 32 bits edition         
    Is the Photoshop CS5 supported on BOTH Win 7 32 AND 64 bits ? Or are they different versions ?
    I plan to either have a dual boot Win 7 32 Bits  -    Win 7  64 bits or separate hard disk on racks, so I'll still be able to use 32 bits softwazre that don't run on 64bits
    But if PhotoShop CS5 comes in 2 versions, I need to decide which one I should buy
    Thanks for any help you vcan provide
    have a good day
    PS : Is the problem with PhotoShop CS5 running on AMD processors solved ?

    Windows 7 x64 is a separate build from Windows 7 32 bit.  Windows 7 Ultimate comes with BOTH.
    There isn't a separate package of Photoshop CS5 for 32 bit or 64 bit.  Photoshop (since CS4) installs both 32 bit and 64 bit software on a 64 bit Windows system, or only 32 bit software on a 32 bit Windows system.
    Photoshop CS5 is fine with every variant of Windows 7.
    Photoshop CS5 is reportedly fine with modern AMD processors, though I have only used Intel.
    The detailed system requirements are here:  http://www.adobe.com/products/photoshop/photoshop/systemreqs/
    My own (personal, subjective) opinion is that ATI (AMD) video interfaces are better than nVidia.
    Hope this answers your questions.

  • Troubleshoot windows 7-64 and OL CS5 and CS3

    I have problems with OL and Windows 7 Ultimate 64. I installed OL Cs5 and when I try to record a HDV signal, nothing happens and the program freezes. Prior to pressing the record button, the scopes and monitor show the camera signal as expected. When I feed a DV signal, the program records fine. When I install OL CS3 om the same computer, I can record the HDV signal, but the monitor does not show the HDV signal. The monitor is just black. My computer is a Dell xps M1350 with core 2 duo,  2.50 Ghz, 4 Gb ram. I have disabled all start-up and Microsoft services, and problem continues. Most recent updates for video card installed.  Any idea how to troubleshoot this??

    Hmm. Do I understand correctly that you see Vidblaster in the Field Monitor panel's tab, along with your HDV camera?
    If so, then that's likely the cause of the problems in OL CS5. Basically, OnLocation should recognize only FireWire (IEEE 1394) devices. If any other devices are showing in that dropdown list, they are likely to interfere with OnLocation behaving correctly. Until now, we were aware only of webcams showing up among the list of devices. It sounds like you've discovered another case: Vidblaster.
