What updates have been released?
Photoshop CS6 has two new updates: 13.0.2 and 13.1. The 13.0.2 update is available only for Mac users and updates the user interface to be Retina compatible. The 13.1 is for Creative Cloud subscribers and adds new features to Photoshop CS6.
How do I get the updates?
Simply go to Help > Updates to launch the Adobe Application Manager (AAM) to start the download process. You may already have an AAM notification to install these updates waiting in your task bar. You can also download and install the 13.0.2 update from here:
Photoshop 13.0.2 update for CS6
Don't see the updates in AAM? Make sure the Adobe Application Manager is updated to 6.2 or later.
Windows
Mac OS
Note: Using this update patch will install the latest version of AAM, which may be greater that 6.2.
Additionally,
Updates not available for Creative Cloud products
What is the availability of these updates?
The 13.0.2 update is available only for Mac OSX version 10.6 or later. The 13.1 update is only available to Creative Cloud subscribers (including Creative Cloud single-app membership, i.e. subscribing to Photoshop only), but it is for both Windows and Macintosh.
Some of the Photoshop CS6 System Requirements have changed in order to allow for the features in the 13.1 update.
Windows XP and Vista are no longer supported.
The video card VRAM requirements have gone up to 512 MB.
For more information, see:
New system requirements for Photoshop 13.1
Heads Up: Photoshop System Requirement Changes
Error: "Graphics hardware not officially supported" occurs in Photoshop 13.1 (Subscription Edition)
Do I need to install both updates?
No, the 13.1 update also includes the Retina display enhancements added with 13.0.2. So on the Mac platform, you will only be asked or are required to install the 13.1 update if you are a Creative Cloud subscriber.
What are the new features added for Creative Cloud subscribers in 13.1?
There have been many new features added to Photoshop CS6, including:
Smart Object support for Blur Gallery and Liquify — Enjoy the creative freedom to experience non-destructive editing with Blur Gallery and Liquify now that both features offer Smart Object support.
Conditional Actions — Speed up image processing by creating Conditional Actions. These commands use logic to automatically choose among different Actions based on rules that you establish.
Crop tool refinements — User-inspired enhancements to the Crop tool allow you to work smarter.
Copy CSS — Quickly export Cascading Style Sheet (CSS) markup for text and objects, potentially saving hours of work translating your Photoshop designs into web code.
Load color swatches from HTML or CSS — Import color swatches so that you can easily design incredible websites.
Improved Type Styles — Ensure consistent type formatting across multiple documents by defining shareable default styles, which are then available in any Photoshop document.
3D type enhancements* — Enhance 3D type with new GL preview and image-based lights (IBL) improvements.
For more information on these features, including demonstration videos, please see:

Membership Exclusive Features
New Exclusive Photoshop Features for Creative Cloud Members!
New Photoshop Features and Team Version Headline Major Update to Adobe Creative Cloud
*Note: Photoshop CS6 single-app subscription is for the Standard version, which does not include 3D features and thus does not include these enhancements. Creative Cloud subscription comes with Photoshop CS6 Extended and includes the 3D enhancements.
I am not a Creative Cloud subscriber, why do I not the get the 13.1 update? Doesn't my full purchase also qualify me for free updates?
When you buy Photoshop CS6 outright, you are essentially buying a static product. You still qualify for minor, bug fixing releases like 13.0.1 and 13.0.2, but your purchase will not include any new features, as has always been the case in the past.
When you subscribe to Creative Cloud, you are not buying CS6, you are subscribing to whatever the latest version of Photoshop is. This means you are immediately entitled to any new features and upgrades as they become available. And this is only one of the many great reasons to be a Creative Cloud subscriber.

Why do my images appear smaller on my Retina enabled Mac after installing the 13.1/13.0.2 update?
Retina displays use a higher pixel density than a normal monitor. The individual display pixels are approximately one half the size of previous devices. While working in Photoshop before installing the 13.1/13.0.2 update, as with any other non-Retina optimized application, the number of pixels used is doubled to give a normal, non-miniaturized appearance. This can cause applications to be slightly blurred or pixilated. Thus, when viewing images in Photoshop, the zoom level is effectively double whatever is displayed. At 100% zoom, the image is displayed so that every one image pixel is shown with four display pixels, the same as viewing the image at 200%. With the 13.1/13.0.2 update, Photoshop now displays natively on Retina screens, meaning that image pixels now appear at the much smaller Retina size, thus reducing the amount of screen space they take up when viewed at 100%.

Known Issues
The following are known issues with the 13.1 and 13.0.2 updates but have been fixed in the 13.1.1 and 13.0.3 updates:
Program error opening files in 13.1 and 13.0.2
Photoshop 13.1/13.0.2 crashes opening EPS files
Photoshop crashes after updating to 13.1 or 13.0.2 on Retina display
For more information, see:
Photoshop 13.0.3/13.1.1 Updates Now Available
Why have icons disappeared?
Due to changes in the number of pixels involved in the UI, some icons can disappear. If the Photoshop Dock icon is now blank, rebooting the computer will refresh the system and load the new HiDPI icon. Some extensions do not have a Retina ready icon and thus will be blank when you have the panel minimized. In most cases like these, we may have to wait until the manufacturer also releases a HiDPI version of the Extension. Additionally, sub-menu headers may become blank when you view the contents of the sub-menu. For example, if you select Filter > Sharpen, while viewing the list of Sharpen, Sharpen Edges, Sharpen More, etc "Sharpen" itself will be blank.

You might want to wait. There are some bugs in it and Adobe is working on it. See threads posted in last few hours.
Well that might explain things more than I've garnered from the Forums. I've got a MacBook Pro with Mountain Lion and a Mac Pro with Lion, both with CS6 Design and Web Premium on them. The Mac Pro updates Photoshop to 13.0.3, the MacBook Pro is "stuck" at 13.0.1. It won't update via the "Help/Updates" or by downloading and trying to install manually. AAM gives an error when trying manually; says to contact support. Other CS6 apps, i.e. Illustrator, do not update on the MBPro either. I've uninstalled/reinstalled, deactivated/reactivated, etc., to no avail. If it means anything, I just deactivated the Illustrator app, quit it, restarted, and the splash screen (which shows the loading progress) showed "Try" on it - haven't noticed that before, and I have not installed any trial downloads. I'm at a loss as to why one installation of CS6 Design and Web Premium (physical/downoad) will update properly on one computer and not the other.
Am waiting to see if Adobe has an answer. The apps work, just don't update...

What are the optimal hardware specification requirements for Adobe Photoshop CS6?
Greetings to the staff and users of this forum,
As the title clearly stipulates, the question is "What are the optimal hardware specification requirements for Adobe Photoshop CS6?".
Unfortunately, I am not satisfied with the specs specified on the website, as I believe they are far lesser than the specs needed to run the program at its full potential. This belief comes from my experience with the product Adobe Photoshop CS2 that I currently run on my computer. In effect, Ps CS2 cannot fully run without inducing time lags on my computer (i.e. when using 500 pix diameter smudge tool/ using liquify gallery), even though my specs are already higher than those specified for CS6 (mine are: Intel Core 2 Duo 6300 1.86 GHz, 3 GB RAM). I can assure you that I get those time lags even when almost in safe mode (only system main processes running) and that my computer is clean from any process/virus that could lower its performances.
I've been through two chat rooms and four telephone operators to always get the same answer: the specs on the website.
If any user here could provide me with proper higher specs, I would really be grateful.
Thanks,
phdwengrThis document looks at different workflows and gives recommendations. It should give you an idea of what's needed.

What are the Photoshop design dimensions for Dreamweaver fluid grid layout?
If I were to build a website using Dreamweavers fluid grid layout, what are the dimensions in Photoshop I should be designing with?
FluidGrid Layouts are based on % widths; not fixed pixel widths. As such your PShop design comps will need to be planned with these device widths in mind.
320px - 480px wide = mobile
481px - 768px width = small tablet
600px - 1024px width = large tablet
1024px - 1233px width = desktop/laptop

Does my computer meet the system requirements for Adobe Photoshop CS5 Extended?
I am planning to buy Adobe Photoshop CS5 Extended but I have tried to understand if my computer 's system is enough for the software. Please help me, the Adobe requirements I am unsure of are in bold and my system is in italics (My laptop is an Acer Aspire 5715Z):
Windows
Intel® Pentium® 4 or AMD Athlon® 64 processor - Intel Pentium Dual CPU T2330 (Should be higher than Pentium 4???)
1024x768 display (1280x800 recommended) with qualified hardware-accelerated OpenGL graphics card, 16-bit color, and 256MB of VRAM - display is no problem, Mobile Intel GL960 Express Chipset with Integrated 3D graphics, featuring Intel Graphics Media Accelerator X3100 with up to 358 MB of Intel Dynamic Video Memory Technology 4.0)
Some GPU-accelerated features require graphics support for Shader Model 3.0 and OpenGL 2.0 - I haven't got a clue what to look for.
Thank you for all help!
JenBrand:
Acer
Mfr Part Number:
Aspire 5715Z
RAM Size:
2 GB
Processor Brand:
Intel
Processor Speed:
1.6 GHz
Processor Type:
Pentium
Hard Drive Size:
80 GB
Operating System:
Windows Vista Home Premium
Screen Size:
15.4 inches
That's from the Acer website.
It IS a pentium processor, but I see nothing to indicate if it's 64bit. I'm guessing it's 32. CS5 works best in a 64 bit environment, that's my personal opinion. I've used it in both and 64 outperforms 32.
2Gb of Ram will cause some performance issues too. If your aspire can be bumped up to 4Gb do that first.
80Gb of HD with Vista and I don;t kow how much other software and files you have, but it isn't a lot these days. I had a Toshiba with an 80Gb drive and I lasted about three months before I HAD to put a 250Gb in it. Once I had Vista Ultimate, CS4 Master Collection, Office 2007, Roxio Creator 10 and about 4 Gb of websites. I had to connect an external drive for my Photoshop files because I had about 6Gb left on the drive.
It will run (in 32bit mode) but with the "factory" specs, it will run slower and you may experience issues with it freezing up on large files (2Gb or bigger). -
FAQ: What are the known issues so far in Photoshop CS6 Beta
APPLICATION COEXISTENCE
Lightroom 4 Beta + Photoshop CS6 beta -- Editing the same video file simultanously in both applications may result in an error, crash, or blank (transparent) frames. You might see this Photoshop error: "Could not complete the Render Video command because of a problem with Adobe Media Encoder".
This will only be an issue with Lightroom 4 beta and Photoshop CS6 beta on the same system, editing the same video. The released versions will not have this issue.
Workaround: Upgrade to LR Release version (even if it's just the trial), or don't open the same file in both apps at the same time.
CS5 Help fails to launch after install of CS6
Workaround: Launch the stand alone "Adobe Help" application or reinstall CS5
CROP
Crop action shows wrong crop box.Playing an action with a crop step that has dialogs turned on results in a crop box that covers the entire canvas instead of the expected area.
Workaround: Ensure that the Crop Tool is selected before running the action or disable dialogs for the action.
FILTERS
(32bit OS only) Initial "Merge to HDR Pro" image display and result is black until settings are changed
Workaround: It will remain black until droplist in the "mode" line is selected, changed and activated, then action appears to be normal.
Bokeh color is different from preview after render at certain zoom levels on particular image patterns
Workaround: View image at 100%
Lighting effects bump map generates artifacts if an alpha channel bump map is used. The resulting preview and final image is artifacted across the gradiated areas of the alpha channel.
Workaround: Do not use a gradiated alpha channel as a bump map
Liquify will perform the filter and save to just part of the photo if you click cancel while it is "finishing processing" a large file.
LAYERS
If a vector layer has a center-aligned stroke combined with an inside-aligned layer style stroke, then that vector layer's stroke may not display correctly -- part of the vector layer stroke will disappear as the layer is moved around the image.
Workaround: Use the "Path Selection Tool" to move your vector around -- alternatively, Change the stroke alignment or remove underlying layers.
Dragging a selection box while layer filters are applied stops marquee selection from following cursor movement
Workaround: Even though the graphic of the selection marquee stops, the selection still happens. OR Turn off layer filtering before targeting the layers using a selection box
TYPE
Editing text attributes in the Character panel when the layer is locked can result in a crash
Workaround: Unlock your text layer prior to attribute adjustments in the Character panel
Setting the menu type>font>preview size to "huge" after opening a saved file caused photoshop to crash
Workaround: Uncheck Background save in Photoshop CS6
Style by example or definition not working as expected:
If any attribute in the Paragraph Panel is set and you create a new Paragraph Style, the new style is based on the default and the override is not cleared.
DRAWING AND PAINTING
Paint is offset with Grip Pen- if you select the Soft Low Density Airbrush Preset with Grip Pen paint with swicth facing right with a high tilt towards you the cursor shows the spray should be going up, but it sprays down.
3-D
Creating a video timeline and rendering video from two 3D layers may not include ground plane reflections
Workaround: Use mesh for ground plane instead of 3D engines construct, or duplicate the file and remove the keyframes
Creating a New background texture after changing lighting presets results in crash
Workaround: Create the New background texture prior to adjusting lighting presets
Unable to create a constraint on extruded object with Pillow Inflate setting applied. Further actions may result in Photoshop instability or crash.
Photoshop may crash when trying to align/distribute constraints from selections of two 3-D extruded objects
Photoshop may not always save a texture when you paint directly onto the 3d object using Paint on Target Texture setting.
Photoshop may crash when selecting a different panel filter after the focus has been on 2 fields in the environment flyout with IBL map present
Photoshop may crash after embedding a 3D layer into a layer group, creating a new 3d object in the group, and then closing the document.
When changing the color of the lines or points in the 3D scene cross section from the Properties panel, side b color overwrites the color in side A.
Program Error when adjusting fill value in Layers panel while in Lighting Effects workspace.
Workaround:You will have to use opacity slider instead of fill slider to pull back the lighting effect
PLUGINS
DUPLICATE PLUGINS CAUSE ISSUES ON MAC:
If you install duplicate plugins or point the additional plugins folder preferences to a duplicate set of plugins (such as, to an older version of Photoshop), then it is possible for odd Photoshop behavior, such as an inappropriate file extension to appear when saving files.
(example: while performing a "save as" to JPEG file type, the file format appears to change to .dcm)
In this case, there may be a duplicate "file formats" plugin that's populating the Save As file types list with duplicates of the same options.
If there are duplicate file format plugins installed, the Mac OS will remove the duplicates from the list, but you may still see the odd saving behavior.
Solution:
Remove the duplicate plugins.
If you are not sure if you have this issue, but are seeing odd behavior, you can check for duplicates by looking through the plugins listed in the Help > System Info dialog.
Bridge
Unable to Copy and Paste in File info in Bridge
Workaround: Typing info in Manually works, or copy and paste work in Photoshop's File Info dialog
Install
Adobe Setup Utility may quit, or error during install. You may see error: "Exit Code: 15"
Workaround: Create a folder named 'Templates' at "<Windows drive>:\Users\<current user login id>\AppData\Roaming\Micorsoft\Windows\"
Message saying trial of PS CS6 beta expired,Content coming soon, stay tuned.
Workaround: re-launch photoshop CS6 beta. This issue should not happen anymore1. You can get full support for your camera by upgrading to Lightroom 4. But personally, I would wait for Lightroom 5 since it will be released shortly, probably within the next month. Lightroom 5 will work with Photoshop CS5. The only difference is that Lightroom will need to create a TIF or PSD file that contains all the changes you have made in Lightroom. That's not a big deal, in my opinion. That file has to be created at some point anyway whenever you use Photoshop.
2. Yes, Lightroom 4 will pass images back and forth between it and Photoshop.
3. The upgrade would not break Lightroom 3. It would essentially work the same as it does with your current setup.
4. If you purchase CS6 it is my understanding you will be allowed to use it indefinitely. This is not true of the Creative Cloud version. Support and updating for additional cameras will cease for CS6. Adobe has announced that they will make Camera Raw 8.1 so that it can be usable with CS6 as far as reading Lightroom adjustments. But any new controls will not be accessible.
5. So far, Adobe has indicated that they have no plans to making Lightroom a subscription-only offering.
You are asking your questions as though you are addressing Adobe directly. This is a User-to-user forum. I don't work for nor do I speak for Adobe. I am only giving you the information as I understand it. It seems to me that upgrading to Photoshop CS6 and Lightroom 5 is a "safe" choice. None of us, not even Adobe, really knows what the future will bring. Technology changes so quickly anymore that everything we are doing right now could be obsolete in a matter of a very short period of time. As Adobe changes their marketing strategies I think it will probably motivate some people to look elsewhere. I have Photoshop CS6 and I'm going to upgrade to Lightroom 5. Then I will have to wait and see what develops after that. At any rate, I have tools that I can use for the foreseeable future. If I have to change at some point then I will do so. -
FAQ: What are the best export settings?
For a video version of this frequently asked question and answer, see this video:
What's the best export format or codec?
Compression is essential for reducing the size of movies so that they can be stored, transmitted, and played back effectively. Compression is achieved by an encoder; decompression is achieved by a decoder. Encoders and decoders are known by the common term codec.
No single codec or set of settings is best for all situations. For example, the best codec for compressing cartoon animation is generally not efficient for compressing live-action video. Similarly, the best codec for playback over a slow network connection is generally not the best codec for an intermediate stage in a production workflow.
When you create a movie for distribution, it is often highly compressed; when you create a movie for an intermediate stage in a post-production workflow, it is usually losslessly compressed (or even uncompressed).
To determine what the best settings are for your purposes, read these resources:
article from Aharon Rabinowitz about how to plan based on client specifications
article on compression
article on planning your work with final delivery specifications in mind.
In many cases, you can and should use encoding presets in Adobe Media Encoder, which are created for the specific purpose of setting up exports for common formats and uses. For information about several common encoding presets, see this:
"FAQ: How do I export a movie for YouTube, Vimeo, iPad, iPhone, or Apple TV?"See
Exporting to iPods, cell phones, PSPs and other mobile devices in the PPro Help for details.

Remove the app bar and reduce the drag/app bar over 30%1. Mainstage - Even though I probably won't use Logic for live performance much, I love how simple, clean, and intuitive the interface looks. I will probably use this when composing as it seems to be one of the easiest ways to route drum pads, create keyboard layers, etc. really quickly, and the interface is very inviting.
2. Delay designer looks really fun. I remember spending 30 minutes once in Sonar trying to get the stupid delay to do a really simple thing. I finally gave up and layered the audio data to make my own delay because it didn't give me enough control to make it happen in the plugin. It looks like I could have just drawn it into the Delay Designer and been done with it.
3. Import from Garageband - Not a new feature, but I love using Garageband as a musical notepad when all I want to do is create something simple or jot down an idea. In this period, I don't need all the features of Logic, but I will eventually, and then I just open it up in Logic and get more advanced. -
FAQ: What are the limitations of the free, 30-day trial version of Premiere Pro?
The free, 30-day trial version of Adobe Premiere Pro CS5 and earlier lacked many of the most useful and popular codecs, including codecs for MPEG-2, AVCHD, and RED media. This meant that people had a hard time evaluating the software for real-world use.
Not any longer.
The trial version of Adobe Premiere Pro CS5.5, and later includes all of the codecs that are included with the full version of Adobe Premiere Pro CS5.5. This means that you can import and export to all of the supported file formats using the trial version.
See this page for more details about the trial version.
For lists of formats that you can import into and export from Adobe Premiere Pro, see these pages:
formats that you can import into Adobe Premiere Pro CS5.5
formats that you can export from Adobe Premiere Pro CS5.5 through Adobe Media Encoder
formats that you can export directly from Adobe Premiere Pro CS5.5There are no limitations for 30 days, it will work exactly as if you have a subscription. But if you don't get a subscription, after 30 days, you will no longer be able to launch the program.
