CS6 Looks Weird...Need Help!

Hello. I am running Adobe Photoshop CS6 on Windows 8 64bit.
When I open up pics, photos, etc. in CS6, they look a little weird, like the color is off. They also look a little pixelized but they shouldn't be.
Does anybody know why this is and what option I may need to check or uncheck to fix this issue?
This does not happen when I use Paint Shop Pro X5.
Thanks for any help you can offer!
Cheers!!!

Yes, it is. 1200 x 900 pixels.
I have been working with Photoshop for years and this is the first time I've noticed this.
It looks kinda "washed out" if you know what I mean. And I am not running any plug-ins with it either.
Just straight CS6 64bit.

  • Video looks weird, need help

    Hi,
    I recently played some music videos on my tv through my ipod, and the videos looked had small blurred squares.
    Is it the resolution? How can I fix this?
    the encoded settings I used for my 60gb ipod in mpeg4, 320x240, frame rate and aspect set to auto.
    Should I use different settings during encoding, if I am going to view them on a bigger screen?
    Thanks!

  • Mini display to VGA weirdness - need help connecting to CRT

    Hello,
    I am new here and recently purchased a Mac Mini (2011, 2.3 Mhz i5 model).
    I am probably in the vast minority as far as monitor choices go, as I am using a NEC FE2111SB CRT monitor. 20" viewable, looks good or better than most LCDs, so I see no need to replace it. I have the mac hooked up via a mini display to VGA adapter and it works, but has some weird problems.
    When booting to Windows 7 through bootcamp, the screen starts off all white (like normal), but then goes black. Nothing. I wait a while, then my normal Windows login screen eventually pops up. So for whatever reason, the entire Windows boot screen (one with win 7 logo, etc) won't show up at all.
    The boot screen does show up if hooked to a LCD. But I tested two CRTs, and the boot screen is black for both, no signal.
    I was guessing that perhaps the boot screen used a weird resolution or refresh rate through Apple's EFI, so I figured I'd try several things. First was simply changing the resolution on the mac side of things. And then I noticed other weirdness. If Lion is set to high resolutions, say 1200x960, or 1600x1200 (or anything besides 1024x768), then I also lose the white (apple) screen that typically pops up when starting the machine. The white screen being what you see when it first starts, then you can press the keyboard to get the apple OS choices (if bootcamp is installed).
    So basically what I have is: if I leave lion at 1024x768, I get the white apple boot screen, and it boots into lion normally.
    If lion is anything besides 1024x768, I lose the white boot screen, and am loading lion blindly, just waiting for the lion login to hopefully pop up eventually.
    If lion is set at 1024x768, then I do get the mac boot screen, yet bootcamp/windows is all black until windows 7 boots up. I have not found any resolution or refresh rate at all that will allow me to see the windows 7 boot screen when using bootcamp, and this adapter + CRT.
    Any suggestions? I have tried two minidisplay to vga adapters, apple's and rocketfish, both had the same problems. Although I found the apple branded one to be a little more finicky than the rocketfish adapter.

    Possibly too many adapters.
    Signal strength dropped off when I used minidisplay-to-DVI/DVI-to-VGA/VGA-keyboard-viedo-mouse splitter, and "nothing" came through.  minidisplay-to-DVI/DVI cable worked fine.

  • Need help asap. Can't open project in PP CS6 Debug Event, Need help asap. Can't open project in PP CS6 Debug Event

    I sat up all night, last night, editing a movie for a school project which is due Friday. I am extremely busy, and as i opened the file this morning to show the progress to a partner, Premiere, told me "Premiere pro has encountered an error" - "[c:\Mightykilt64\shared\adobe\mediacore\mediafoundation\api\inc\keyfra" - I click continue, and it says "The project could not be loaded, it may be damaged or contain outdated elements"
    I am so frustrated as i'm super busy, and on top of that i'm no computer genious, i really really hope someone can help, i need it asap! I use windows 8 btw..

    Gaps can be very small, and almost impossible to actually see.
    First, I zoom in on the Timeline, to the Frame-level, and step through the Timeline, or play it, looking for a flash of black.
    Next, I will hit Home, to get to the beginning of the Timeline, and then use the PageUP/PageDN keys to step through, Clip by Clip. I watch the CTI (Current Time Indicator w/ the red Edit Line) carefully. It should smoothly jump from Clip to Clip. With a tiny gap, say 1 Frame, the CTI will "hiccup," or "bounce." That is where the Gap is. How one fixes it will depend on where the gap is, and what one wants. Say that it's between two stills, I would then drag the Head of one, or the Tail of the other, to fill that gap. If it's between Video Clips, other choices might work best.
    PrE has a "Close Gaps" function, but if one has Audio that covers that gap, it will not work.
    One trick, that can get you to Transcoding is to add Transparent Video. Drag that to Video Track above all of your existing Video Clips, and extend it to "cover" the entire Timeline. The limitation of this method is that if there is a gap, there will be a black flash in the Video. If only 1 Frame, that might go undetected.
    Usually, when one gets the ":Failure to Return Frame," there is a % of the Timeline, also listed. One can do the math to locate that on the Timeline. As PrE does a two-pass Transcode, then 100% of the Transcode is through two passes. The full Duration of the Timeline is at 50%, as that is the end of the first pass. That can be a bit confusing, as a glitch at 75% would mean that half-way through the second pass, there was an issue detected. Usually, if there is a glitch, it will be discovered in the first pass.
    Good luck,
    Hunt

  • Man this is weird need help badly

    I just got my new imac today from fedex and I'm having some problems early on ok I got quite afew programs that run windows and mac and none of them will install and run right take warcraft 3 for example it just crashes as soon as you run it then there myst 4 and 5 don't run right either all of them just crash whats going on with this thing anyways love the computer but getting very fustrated that nothing I have runs on this mechine.

    The older iMacs used PowerPC chips from IBM/Motorola. Software for those Macs were written in binary code specifically for those chips. The new iMacs have Intel chips and software must be written in binary code for those chips. In this interim period Apple has incorporated into the Operating System software called Rosetta, named for the famous stone which finally allowed archeologists to decipher ancient Egyptian. Rosetta allows software applications written for PPC Macs to run on Intel Macs by translating the PPC binary code into native Intel binary code on the fly, or in real time. However, it has its drawbacks, especially where games are involved. PPC software using Rosetta are much more memory intensive than native Intel software. There is a new creature added to the mix called Universal binaries. These are a new breed of software applications that contain both PPC and Intel binary code. They can run on both PPC and Intel Macs
    So, first you need a lot of RAM to run games. Second if the game manufacturer has issued a patch to your game that makes it more Intel friendly or updates it to be a Universal binary, it is to your advantage to check with the game maker and download and install the patch. Third, Windows games will not run on Intel Macs unless you have used one of the methods available to install Windows XP on your Intel Mac.

  • I just bought Dreamweaver CS6...need help

    Do you have to get a domain name before you start creating a website?  Or after you create a website how do you get the site posted to the internet?  Thanks for any help!

    You can pick your domain name from anywhere - name.com for example.
    For hosting, you can use 1and1.com or inmotionhosting.com - they're pretty good, reliable & affordable too. If you choose to, you can also pick up your domain from one of these companies - so you get to manage your domain + hosting from one place.
    One sincere advice - stay away from GoDaddy!

  • I need help to install Toolkit CreateJS for Flash CS6.

    Hi,
    I need help in installing CreateJS for Flash CS6. I had downloaded the Toolkit CreateJS from here: http://www.adobe.com/go/downloadcreatejs and here: http://www.adobe.com/devnet/createjs/articles/using-flash-pro-toolkit- createjs.html. When I attempted to install the extension using Adobe Extension Manager, the installation files did not have the required .zxp or .mxp files. It only had a file with a .mxi extension. Please advise. Thanks.

    Why installing IIS o_O?
    For Installing a developer Machine just install Oracle Developer suite; for testing your forms you use OC4J ("start OC4J instance" in start menu), and you can run your forms in web; no need for a aditional webserver (don't believe there's an OC4J connector for IIS available; and if so I wouldn't use it either ;-))
    For Installing a server for "productional" use install Oracle Application Server (available on otn) which comes with an Apache as webserver and all the other needful things for runnung forms on the web.
    For configuring both of them just take a look at the documentations on http://otn.oracle.com

  • Need help putting Photoshop CS6 on new device (without the CD)

    So I just recently purchased a new Windows Surface Pro 3 which I've been looking forward to using Photoshop CS6 on. I bought PS CS6 through Journeyed.com a couple years ago and have already registered it to my old laptop. Unfortunately, I misplaced the CD, but I have the box with the product code. I thought I could just do like I did before--download the free trial of CS6 and put in my serial number. Since Adobe now offers "Photoshop CC" instead of CS6, I guess that's what throws it off and stops my serial number from working (i get "invalid code"). I even had to double check what my serial code was through Adobe and my serial number was there, already registered.
    I've already tried downloading the free trial of CS6 from other websites but it's been complicated. One of them didn't even work and gave me an error message, and the other was .dmg file so I had to download an app just to unzip the file. I'm just really confused and need help with this. I even tried to put the program files from my laptop onto an external hard drive and put them onto my surface pro, but that got confusing too. 
    Thanks,
    Gaby

    First thing that I would do would be to look at this Adobe KB Article to see if it helps.

    With that one, let's try the following procedure.
    First, head into your Add/Remove programs and uninstall your QuickTime. If it goes, good. If it doesn't, we'll just attend to it when we attend to iTunes.
    Next, download and install the Windows Installer CleanUp utility:
    Description of the Windows Installer CleanUp Utility
    Now launch Windows Installer CleanUp ("Start > All Programs > Windows Install Clean Up"), find any iTunes and/or QuickTime entries in the list of programs in CleanUp, select those entries, and click “remove”.
    Next, we'll manually remove any leftover iTunes or QuickTime program files:
    (1) Open Local Disk (C:) in Computer or whichever disk programs are installed on.
    (2) Open the Program Files folder.
    (3) Right-click the iTunes folder and select Delete and choose Yes when asked to confirm the deletion.
    (4) Right-click the QuickTime folder and select Delete and choose Yes when asked to confirm the deletion. (Note: This folder may have already been deleted if QuickTime was successfully removed using Add/Remove Programs earlier.)
    (5) Delete the QuickTime and QuicktimeVR files located in the C:\Windows\system32\ folder. Click Continue if Windows needs confirmation or permission to continue. (Note: These files may have already been deleted if QuickTime was successfully removed using Add/Remove Programs earlier.)
    (6) Right-click on the Recycle Bin and on the shortcut menu, click Empty Recycle Bin.
    (7) Restart your computer.
    Now try another iTunes install. Does it go through properly now?

  • I still need help. i am technically challanged.  i up graded my phonr to a 5 s.  i backed up my phone on icloud.  i cAn not get my notes or photos.   it looks like the icloud email address is wrong. how can i change it or get my missing items

    I need help. I am not good with technology. I upgraded phone today to 5 s I am missing notes and photos  it looks like the cloud address is not correct. Any suggestions

    Have you forgotten your password? - if so, you have a problem if the email address has gone dead.
    If you know your password, go to the iTunes Store, click on Account. log in and you can change the associated email address.
    If you don't know your password, and have no email address, you are going to have problems because it's difficult to see how Apple are going to identify you as the authorised owner of the account. Contact iTunes Support: go to http://www.apple.com/support/itunes/ - click on 'Other iTunes Store Features' in the list and then on 'Podcasts'. You will see a link to either 'Express Lane', which will guide you eventually to some contact options, or you may see a link to email them.

  • Hello, I need help with my macbook pro. It looks like I cannot install anything anymore. Everytime I try to install a new software, use the migration assistant or click the lock to make changes, it simply does not react.

    Hello, I need help with my macbook pro.
    It looks like I cannot install anything anymore. Everytime I try to install a new software, I simply get stuck during the installation type process. I put in my password, it does accept it, but it does not go any further.
    I tried to reset the password, put no password, repair the permissions, the disk but nothing will do. I nearly got stuck with the log in screen but finally succeeded in disabling it.
    So I thought I might try to create a new account but I cannot click the lock to make changes. It simply refuses to react.
    I am now thinking about using the migration assistant to save all my settings, data and so fourth, but again I get stuck when I have to type in my password. It accepts it but nothing happens...
    I guess it has something to do with the authorization process, but can't find anything on the internet about it... Can you help me out?

    You probably won't like this suggestion, but I suggest you reinstall Lion.
    First, backup your system. Next, reboot your system, press/hold the COMMAND-R keys to boot into the Recovery HD. Select 'Reinstall Mac OS X'. If you purchased Lion as an upgrade to Snow Leopard, the reinstall process will install Lion 10.7.3. If your system came preinstalled with Lion, you might still get Lion 10.7.2. Both installs are a total install of the OS. None of your apps or data will be impacted. Just the OS.

    I really need help. I try to contact support to no avail. There simply is no option on the site, You are always referred to a further topic which has notihing to do with my problem. I bougnt a full master pack CS6 which I had installed on a mac for one year. Then, I decided to change it to another computer, so I sisintalled it according to instructions. In the meantime I got a free trial of creative cloud on that computer, but I gave up and decided to reinstall my cd-roms. However, everytime I try to use acrobat for instance it says that my trial period ran out! I disinstalled my cloud products, I am using my registered full master series items, they have nothing whatsoever to do with my creative cloud FREE subscription. If I try to cancel my free membership, it is to no avail, there simply is no such possiblity. I want to use the software I paid dearly for, not the cloud items I disinstalled and which do not interest me. How can I contact Adobe to fix it? It was no fault of mine, I did all I was supposed to, disintalling items before installing the right ones, but the system must have some error i am not responsible for.

    open an app and click help>activate.
    if you try to open an app and see a 'your trial has expired" window, click license this software and enter your serial number.
    if you can't do either, run the cleaner and make sure cc is cleaned from your computer, Use the CC Cleaner Tool to solve installation problems | CC, CS3-CS6
