    The error message "No more virtual tiles can be allocated" appears when I try to use the effects in the quick editing mode in my Elements 13. The baton OK has to be pressed several times for loading all effect patterns. The error returns when selecting the particular pattern.
    The problem does not appear, if PH Elements 13 is executed in the administrator mode.
    The available computer resources are rather  large enough: CPU INTEL i7 4 cores,  16GB RAM, 1TB HDD + 32GB SSD, Windows 8.1.
    Please, advice how to solve this problem? Maybe, there is patch or updating available?

    Dear n_pane,
    Thank you for the quick answer. In the meantime I found other way to pass by the problem. I increased the cache level up to the maximum value 8.
    The errors reported as "No more virtual tiles can be allocated" vanish, but I still do not understand, why PSE 13 cannot work properly by the lower cache levels, having available maximum resources it needed (10443 MB RAM and 26.53GB SSD space for scratches), or cannot collaborate with the fast SSDs properly.
    I wish you all the best in the New Year 2015!

    I am using CS6 on a 64 bit PC. When I try to print A4 size layered psd files the program crashes. What can I do to rectify this?
    Spoken to IT support who inform me its because files are on network, however they are on my desktop and program is installed on my PC not a network.

    Other sizes print. Bizarre.

  • How to use Color Splash Effect in Photoshop CS6?

    Hi everyone
    Can you guy help me out How to use Color Splash Effect in Photoshop CS6? I need to use in slide in my web
    Thanks

    You mean "leave part in color and make the rest black and white"?
    Just select or mask the part that should be B&W and desaturate, or use the B&W adjustment.
    Or you can add a B&W adjustment layer and mask out the parts that should stay in color.

  • Why am I getting a red and blue haze over my oil paint filter effect in photoshop cs6?

    Why am I getting a red and blue haze over my oil paint filter effect in photoshop cs6? I am currently using a trial version.

    The last time someone reported this problem with Oil paint, the fix was to go Preferences (Ctrl k) > Performance and set the cache levels to something other than '1'.  If you cache levels were not previously set to 1 then we'll need to think again.

    sounds like it could still beGPU or driver related. Can you try out GPU troubleshooting issues below and let us know what happens?

    GPU/OpenGL preferences in Photoshop CS6
    The advantages of using a compatible video card (GPU) with Photoshop are that you can experience better performance and more features.   Problems can occur if you have an older video card with limited VRAM or if you use other programs at the same time as Photoshop that use the GPU.
    Choose Edit > Preferences (Windows) or Photoshop > Preferences (Mac OS).
    In the Performance panel, make sure Use Graphics Processor is selected in GPU Settings.
    Click Advanced Settings and specify the following options:
    Mode > Basic
    Mode > Normal
    Mode > Advanced Provides the benefits of Normal mode as well as newer OpenGL advances that can result in improved performance.
    Use Graphics Processor to Accelerate Computation
    Use OpenCL Uses the GPU to accelerate the new blur filters (Field Blur, Iris Blur, and Tilt-Shift) – OpenCL will only be available on newer GPUs that support OpenCL v1.1 or higher
    Anti-Alias Guides And Paths Allows the GPU hardware to smooth the edges of drawn guides and paths.
    30 Bit Display (Windows only) Allows Photoshop to display 30 bit data directly to screen on video cards that support it
    Quick GPU Troubleshooting StepsYou can experience problems such as artifacts, errors, and crashes if there are incompatibilities between Photoshop and the display components that access the GPU.If you experience crashes, incorrectly rendered windows or objects, redraw issues, or performance issues while running Photoshop, first determine whether OpenGL is causing the problem.
    Turn off OpenGL.
    Choose Edit > Preferences (Windows) or Photoshop > Preferences (Mac OS).
    In the Performance panel, uncheck Use Graphics Processor. Click OK.
    Restart Photoshop, and perform the same function.
    If the problem recurs while OpenGL Drawing is disabled, OpenGL is not the cause. For additional troubleshooting, see Troubleshoot system errors and freezes | Adobe software on Windows (cpsid_82252) or Troubleshoot system errors and freezes | Adobe software on Mac OS 10.x (cpsid_82414).If the problem resolves, proceed with the rest of the troubleshooting steps to fix OpenGL.
    Make sure that you're using the latest update of Photoshop.Updates fix bugs and issues.
    Update the display driver.Updated display drivers can fix many issues, such as crashing, incorrectly rendered objects, and performance problems. See Update the video display driver. Then, turn on Use Graphics Processor in Photoshop preferences.
    Reset preferences.
    Resetting preferences returns OpenGL settings to their default status. Reset Photoshop preferences by pressing and holding Shift+Ctrl+Alt (Windows) or Shift+Option+Command (Mac OS) immediately after you start Photoshop.
    Click Yes when asked if you want to delete the Adobe Photoshop Settings File.
    Retry the function that caused the problem.
    Change the OpenGL mode to Basic.
    Setting the OpenGL mode to Basic uses the least amount of GPU memory and the most basic GPU feature set.
    Close all documents.
    Choose Edit > Preferences (Windows) or Photoshop > Preferences (Mac OS)
    In the Performance panel, click the GPU Settings Advanced Settings button.
    Choose Mode > Basic
    Restart Photoshop.
    If this solution resolves the problem, switch to Normal mode. See if the issue recurs. If the issue recurs, return to Basic mode.
    Note:  If you’re changing GPU preferences to troubleshoot a problem, re-launch Photoshop after each change.
    If you are using more than one video adapter, remove the additional cards.
    Multiple video adapters can cause problems with GPU accelerated or enabled features in Photoshop. It's best to connect two (or more) monitors into one video adapter. If you have to use more than one video adapter, make sure that they are the same make and model. Otherwise, crashes and other problems can occur in Photoshop.
    Note: Using two video adapters does not enhance Photoshop's performance.
    Check your Cache Levels setting.
    If you've set your Cache Levels to 1 in Photoshop preferences, you can experience performance issues with GPU features. Reset Cache Levels to the default setting, which is 4.
    Choose Edit > Preferences > Performance (Windows) or Photoshop > Preferences (Mac OS)
    In the Performance panel, choose Cache Levels > 4.

  • Installed Yosemite and now After Effects crashed each time I try to use the effect KeyLite 1.2. I have CS5.5

    As soon as I try to add the effect to my video, I get: Adobe After Effects 10.5 quit unexpectdly.
    I tried reinstalling CS5.5 and still get the error.

    > Todd, yes but I have cs5.5 not cs6
    Then you need to use an operating system on which that older version is supported.
    When Apple makes major changes in each operating system that break previous applications and plug-ins, the creators of those applications and plug-ins can't go back and patch every previous version to accommodate these operating system changes.
    We have committed to supporting After Effects CS6 and later on new operating systems.

  • Why can't I use lighting effect filter in CS6 with an 8bit RGB file?

    I've read all over that the filter only works with an 8bit/RGB file, which my file is, so I don't understand what the problem is.  I am attempting to light a smart object (3d bevel and extruded text) that I created in illustrator, and thought that I might just need to rasterize the smart object before the filter would work, but even after I render it and or flatten the image, merge visible, I still don't have the option to use lighting effects!  Please help! 

    Thank you for your prompt reply.  After doing a bit of investigating I'm finding out this video card is pretty shite (work owned machine), and I didn't have the gp enabled in performance prefs.  I had been using such an old version of PS previously I wasn't aware there was a setting for  this, frankly.  Per some other threads I found, I updated to the latest graphics accellerator drivers for it as well, but unfortunately the enable gp option is still greyed out, so I'm guessing it just won't run this onboard gpu doesn't meet some minimum system requirement or something.  Thx again.

  • When i try to use one of my Photoshop as wall paper it Gets bigger

    When I try to use one of my photos as wall paper, it Gets bigger

    Have you tried to go in through the photos app? Go to your photo and 'send' it to be wall paper and see if it scaled better.
    SInce iOS7 has the parallax motion (when you tilt the screen  you can see your back ground looking like it's off the edge, turning that off in the settings can help with your wallpaper scaling) it demands that all wallpapers be bigger than the screen. So the iPad automatically zooms in to fill the screen on at least two sides, which leaves most people with limited options to move and scale.
    The higher resolution your photo is the better your experience will be.
    If that still doesn't work there are scaling apps in the App Store. I don't use one so I don't have any recommendations but I have seen people talking about them.
