How does Photoshop CS6 choose the video card for its Graphics Processor?

Running a Intel Mac on 10.74 - CS6
I have two video cards running three Dell Monitors.
The ATI 5770 (runs the 24") is on the 16 lane PCI slot and the older Nvidea 8800 GT (running two Dell 19") is on the 8 lane slot.
But photoshop chooses the slower card on the slower lane.
Any advise welcome to change this.

It's not really Adobe's fault.
The simple fact is that most of the software design that supports display processing is still mired in the days where a computer had one monitor. Making things worse is the fact that the GPU makers don't really have any incentive to make their hardware/software work in a system with other GPU makers' hardware. In a selfish sense, quite the opposite. Who's at fault when your ATI and nVidia cards don't work together?
Macs have just as many problems as PCs - possibly more, since Mac users don't have the luxury of mixing and matching driver versions.
Many modern video cards are made now to support sometimes up to 4 monitors.

I am a serviceman deployed to East Africa, and I bought an itunes gift card but cannot use it to purchase anything because itunes sends me to the billing page for a credit card but I only want to use the gift card, how do I get pass that?

Hello, deployed an want to use an itunes gift card after I put in the number to use it and purchase music itunes continues to take me back to the credit card billing page. I only want to use the gift card, how to I get pass the credit card billing page. Also as soon attempt to put in my new credit card number it immediately times out can this be associated to where I'm located?

Go to your account on your computer and set the credit card to none. This will allow you to use the gift card.

I used Roxio VHS to DVD for Mac (have iMac with Snow Leopard) and the audio does not synch with the video when playing in iMovie. Any suggestions to fix?

I used Roxio VHS to DVD for Mac (have iMac with Snow Leopard) and the audio does not synch with the video when playing in iMovie. Any suggestions to fix?

Thanks for the reply. I tried playing with detaching the audio in iMovie, but with 20+ hours of video to correct, it would take too long. After 28 hours, Corel/Roxio tech support replied that it is a known bitrate mismatch problem and they have no real fix. I strongly suggest not to buy this product.

Hi. I am planning a valentines day party for 7 people, I used the "Event Card" format on pages. It only gave me two cards, I do not know how to get more cards. Thanks!

Newest compared to what?
There is a reason we don't say use the "latest" or "best" methods to complete tasks, because they are vague ill defined terms.
Could you return us the favor and tell us exactly what version of Pages on what version of OSX.
The answer varies.

Does iMovie 11 use the GPU to accelerate encoding videos?

I noticed on imovie ’09, my GPU isn’t used at all to import or encode videos...
Does imovie 11 use the GPU to help out at all?

Some software use the computer’s GPU (addition to or in place of the CPU) in order to complete its given task in a shorter period of time. Photoshop is an example of one of these applications; it uses the GPU instead of the CPU to complete its tasks faster. 3DS Max is another example. It uses all available cores to render faster.
Now you might be thinking those all have to do with graphics... Well... Doesn’t imovie have to do with graphics, too? I mean utilizing the GPU to encode video is a good idea IMO. Even if you don’t associate iMovie with graphics, and somehow think it’s impossible for it to ever take advantage of a GPU, what about the other software that’s completely unrelated to graphics and video encoding? The legality or intentions of the software is questionable... (ie wireless network auditing) But regardless, it still takes advantage of the GPU to accelerate its tasks to incredible speeds. If stuff like that can do it, why can’t a program designed for processing video do it?
Anyway, I won’t be able to tell you if adobe makes NTSC discs or not. I already have toast 10 which I just discovered it burns NTSC DVD discs and even Blu Ray video discs without returning a demuxing error every other video. And to think it was only useful for burning data discs. It doesn’t use the GPU either, but it seems to encode DVD video considerably faster than iDVD.

Does aperture require a dedicated video card? If not a requirement? does it improve the performance of aperture?

Does aperture require a dedicated video card? If not a requirement? does it improve the performance of aperture?

Aperture can work with integrated video, but the consensus here is that Aperture is fairly demanding when it comes to graphics cards, as it relies on them for various processes. So, if you have the option to get a machine with a dedicated video chipset, do so.

Does the account use the itunes card first or is there a default?

I am trying to use the balance on the itunes card and it is telling me that it will use my credit card. How do I set it up to use the gift card first?

After establishing the Credit Card account (i.e. after you have made purchases), you can remove the credit card information by editing your payment info, choosing "None".

Kernel Panic - It's the Video Card or What?

I've been experiencing this since the last week, i'm using the Macbook Pro (Running Lion 10.7.3) and at one moment the screen start to flicker (Look at the photo) and then shows the Gray Screen of Death. When i turn off then ON, the Macbook Pro screen goes with the apple logo but Pink. After some attempts i can finally boot and use it for about a day and then it does it again.
This log is from yesterday, for me it's very strange because i havent installed anything, i refuse to think it the VIDEO CARD.... because when it works it just work fine.

Thanks to both of you;
Right now i'm using my Macbook Pro 17 (Early2010) didn't had another one. The one affected with the problem is there in a box, i'm thinking about getting it to a diagnostic because it doesn't have warranty.
Its kinda weird because i can use it for almost a day and it dont throw any error. When it bad behave it doesnt matter what im doing, has happened during FinalCut or Photoshop or also just surfing the web...!
Video Card for me it's not an option because like you said it its throwing panic kernels which in my experience, these video card crash just goes off and that is.
if you know anything else please help me and let me know, this is a 14 months old MBP... Apple do not want to talk to me via telephone support.

Why does FCP not use the quad Processors for rendering

Hi. I notice the other day when I renderd out a rather long project that FCP does not use all available processors. I notice on some effects that it uses the graphics card and non of the processors. It there a reason for this and is there a way to make better use of the quad core in rendering both audio and video files.
Thanks

Good question. I've been asking around off forum looking for an answer too. Motion is a big one for me. I'd love to have it render out with all 4. But then again, it's not meant to be a render engine. Both FCP and Motion are now becoming more GPU intensive.
Now... COMPRESSOR uses all 4 at the same time.

Is it possible to change the video card of a pavilion g7-1075dx?

So, I have an HP Pavilion g7-1075dx Notebook with Windows 7. I'm an avid gamer and wish to play the newest games. However, there's one problem thats keeping me from doing so. Alot of the newer games require newer video/graphics cards. This particular laptop has an ATI Mobility Radeon HD 4250. The newest games seem to require ATI Radeon HD 4850 and above. This is the only thing thats keeping me from playing games like Starcraft II on the highest settings OR in the case of Star Wars: The Old Republic, it almost keeps me from playing the game, period, due to the graphics being too much for my current card to handle, causing massive lag. I was hoping I could change the video card. Upgrade. However, i've heard that with most laptops or notebooks you can't upgrade anything other than the RAM. I'm hoping anyone on here can help me out and tell me if it is possible to get a new video card for my laptop. We don't have a desktop computer so this laptop is my only hope for a long time to play newer PC games.

Alright, let me put this in a simpler message: Does anyone know if it is possible to change the video card currently in my laptop, the HP Pavilion g7-1075dx, for a newer and better one. ATI Mobility Radeon HD 4250 to ATI Radeon HD 4850 or higher.

What are the video card requirements for running a 23" cinema display

Hi Lionel,
As a general rule of thumb, the ATI Rage 128 Pro will not support a 20" LCD. That being said, there are reports of it doing just that (possibly the edition that went into the cube).
I'm not that familiar with the ins and outs of the Cube, so I can't give you authoritative information on it.
A good place to start looking for answers is:

Can I attach an external monitor to my iMac G5 (ALS) if the video card is dead?

I don't know for a fact that the video card is dead, but the screen on my iMac (PPC/ALS) 20" gradually started flaking out over several months and is now dead. Computer boots up fine and I'm looking at it through target mode right now. I want to keep using the computer if I can, so I am wondering if I can attach an external monitor through the DVI slot even if the video card is kaput. I'd like to get an opinion or two on this before I buy a used monitor and cable. Thanks!

You have found the answer. If the video chipset is OK but there is a fault in the internal display or its cabing, an external monitor will work. However, if the video chipset--which is farther "upstream" in the system--goes bad, the option of an external monitor is off the table.

Does page flipping use the video card?
