Cursor disappears in PS CS5 after OS10.8 upgrade

Hello,
I have a problem in Photoshop CS5 (v. 12.0.2) after ugrading my Mac system to Mountain Lion 10.8.1. I use a mouse (not wireless, also tried changing mouse).
When I work with a picture using the brush tool and move the cursor to a palette or menu, the layers palette for example, the cursor disappers. Sometimes you can see that the palettes gets "marked" when you move the mouse around (I mean the "buttons" that changes when you move the cursor over them). But the cursor is gone and I can't see where to click. If I just click around and eventually hit the right spot, a layer for example, the cursor usually comes back. But the problem happens again as soon as I move the cursor from my picture to a palette or menu.
I don't use that many different tools in Photoshop, usually just the brush tool. But the same thing happens with the doodge tool (or any other tool I think).
Very thankful if anyone can help!
Angelica

This has been reported by a number of Mac users with 10.8.  Problem has been narrowed down to the OS.  Apple needs to fix.  Can search for "disspearing cursor" and will get filled in on details.

  • Mouse cursor disappear using photoshop cs5.5

    mouse cursor disappear using photoshop cs5.5 ( IMAC MID 2010 )

    Before proceeding further, it is to be highlighted that the version being referred to is Photoshop CS5 Extended which is actually Photoshop Version 12.1 and is a part of Adobe Master Collection CS5.5. A screenshot of the version information is attached below for information.
    Hence, I dont understand the concern expressed by many about the lowest version eligible for scripting being available in the product.
    My version is in effect 12.1 and not 7 or 8.
    Accordingly someone may advise on what script to use for inserting the EXIF data onto the image. I also want that the positioning of the text is predetermined and same for a batch of images required to be processed. I dont want to fix the position of text for each individual image.

  • Why did my apps disappear from my iphone4 after I upgraded to ios5?

    I upgraded to ios5 for my iphone 4, and my apps are gone. ?????

    The downloads.sqlite is no longer used in current Firefox releases.
    Download history is stored as part of the normal browsing history (visited sites/links) in places.sqlite and a special annotation property identifies such an history item as a download item, so you can't separate them easily.
    *Downloads are treated as history items: clearing history removes included download items and vice verse.
    *When downloads are in progress you see an animated download button on the Navigation Toolbar showing an estimate of the remaining time
    *The Download button gets a green highlight once all download are finished to make you aware that new downloads are available.
    *Pause and Resume can be found in the right-click context menu of an item.
    You can display the new Downloads Manager in a tab by opening the about:downloads page and You can consider to open this page in a separate window.

  • Siri disappeared from my 4s after ISO6 upgrade

    What?!?  I installed the ISO6 update today and apparently it made Siri mad because she is gone from my phone.  Anyone have a similar problem?

    iWeb 'disappeared' from my iMac after upgrading to OS X10.8 - any ideas? tkx

    Did you do an erase and install of Mt Lion? In any case you'll have to reinstall iWeb from its original source.  Did iWeb come with your computer?  If so you should have a couple of disks that came with your Mac and one of them will have the Bundled Software Install package on it.  Like one of these:
    Be sure to update iWeb to the latest and last version, 3.0.4, from Apple Downloads web page.

  • After I upgraded to iOS 5, my Genius icon/button disappeared. How do I get it back on my iPhone?

    After I upgraded to iOS 5, my Genius icon/button disappeared when using my music player on my iPhone. I am not using iTunes Match, just ensured it's disabled. How do I get my Genius icon/button back on my iPhone? Genius is enabled in iTunes, using the latest version of iTunes on all machines. Help! Thank you!

    Thanks, Huntress, but it's not in More either. I'm talking about the genius button/atom icon that used to appear in the center/top part of the screen while a song plays in the music player, like in this image (I used to be able to tap the atom icon to create a genius playlist on my iphone):
    Now, when I play a song, there is no atom icon/genius button like in the following image. I've already tried tapping where it used to be and it doesn't come back.

  • HT204406 After I upgraded to iTunes 11.1 the download button disappeared. How do I get it back?

    After I upgraded my iTunes to versoin 11.1 a number of my songs suddenly showed that they were unavailable for download, but that I could play them from iCloud. I verified that I actually can stream and play them from the iOS devices that I own; but that's only useful if I'm in range  of a router or cell tower (not always the case!).
    In the past, I could right-click on a song and choose Download from the context menu. That has disappeared. The online help says to use the Download button, but that button is not present. How can this functionality be restored?

    I had this same issue after I upgraded. Have iTunes re-scan your library for iTunes Match (Click "Match" along the top row of your library -- Songs Albums Artists... etc.). After it finished re-scanning my library I could download songs again from iTunes Match.

  • Font names are invisible in Ai CS5 after upgrading to OSX 10.10 Yosemite

    Hello,
    I am having a minor drawback on Adobe Illustrator CS5 after upgrading my iMac to OS X 10.10 Yosemite. The thing is when trying to select a font form a Type>Font selection mostly all font names are invisible. This only happens in Illustrator, Photoshop and Indesign works fine. I have attached a screenshot of what I am  seeing: after hovering with my mouse pointer over the particular font the name appears, but otherwise not.
    I will also address this issue to Apple support as well.
    Waiting for your reply.
    Kristijonas

    donelaitis,
    I believe post #15 in this thread may give the solution.

    After an update or installation, your MBP may take some time to index its files. Give it some time - but if you don't see any improvement, post here - you'll get an answer!

    Thanks for your quick response. I've tried everything you suggested and get only temporary fixes. Sometimes for a day or two, sometimes only until I use Safari for the first time. It's annoying and probably effects battery life between charges.
    You would think that it must have some effect on the battery, but oddly enough, the update to iOS 8 actually helped my battery life, in spite of all of these hinky little issues that are taking place. In my experience, the activity icon is not affecting the battery in a negative way.
    Another issue with IOS 8.1 that you may have seen is the loss of icon pictures on home pages. Again it seems to be Safari related, since app icons found in the App Store are not affected, only web based icons you personally put on home pages. I get what I call a test screen similar to what you used to get on old tv sets on every one of my personal icons.
    I know exactly what you mean. I got that as well. On a few of them, when I opened the websites using the generic test screen icons and then closed them, they changed back to the way that they should look. For the ones that did not change, I recreated the home screen shortcuts and deleted the generic looking ones - the test screen icons.
    And don't get me started on iBooks.
    For the very limited use that I make of the iBooks app, i haven't noticed any problems, but I rarely use the app. I don't read books on the iPad other than a few user guides and if they are pdf guides, they reside in more reliable and feature rich pdf apps on my iOS device.
    I wish that I had the fix for the spinning activity icon, but everything that I try, is temporary at best. IMO, this is the buggiest iOS update that I have seen, and I have been using iOS devices since iOS 3 on my first iPad. I realize that there are plenty of people that are not experiencing issues, but I have seen a number of weird things that I wish I could fix. None of my problems are major, but they are annoying.

  • Can I upgrade from Photoshop CS2 to CS5 after installing Lion?

    Can I upgrade from Photoshop CS2 to CS5 after installing Lion?   Or should I have done it before installing Lion?

    I think you are missing my point.
    For the last many editions of the creative suite they have each been completely independent. There is no "going over a previous version. Each version stands on its own and is a clean install — as long as you haven't installed that specific version before.
    And "obsolete" is a pretty relative term. With products as complex as the creative suite there are often features (or even whole applications) that change between versions. Many people I know keep earlier versions around, just for that very reason.

  • Can I remove safely Photoshop CS5 after a successful upgrade to Photoshop CS6?

    Can I remove safely Photoshop CS5 after a successful upgrade to Photoshop CS6? What is best and safest way to do this?

    If you are using a Windows OS
    Open CS5 and go Help > Deactivate.
    Then Control Panel > Programs and features > select CS5 and uninstall.
    Or just leave it there.  Make sure you have sorted any third party plugins from CS5, although the uninstall should leave them intact.

  • All of my photos have disappeared from PSE Organizer 13 (after I upgraded it).

    All of my photos have disappeared from PSE Organizer 13 (after I upgraded it).  The files are all on the HD.  When I try and reimport them, Organizer says they are already in there and will not allow me to proceed.  When I highlight a keyword, Get the message  "NO MEDIA TO BE DISPLAYED".  Perhaps I am dense, but I find the Search function of the Forum to be near useless, unless I just happen to type the Exact name of a topic.
    I now have no access to perhaps 35,000 files from 12 years of using PSE!
    GFrey

    Which operating system are you running on?   Windows 7 Professional 64 bit
    Which version did you upgrade from?  updated from PSE 13 to PSE 13.1
    In the organizer, which view are you using - in the View menu is Details checked or unchecked - does it make any difference?  was unchecked now checked.  Now can see the other files, but the Keyword tags that I had attached in the past does not bring up the selected frames.
    In the View menu, select Media types - are all checked?  At this point I have only Ohotos and videos checked
    In View menu, select Hidden Files - is Show All Files checked?  yes
    I'm assuming that you are in Media view, what happens if you select People Places or Events?  get groupings of files with those keywords.

    Thanks Brian, at least some of my problems are gone, just can't get the keyword sorting to work correctly
