Found Bug in PS CS6 While Trying to use the Eraser Tool

I was editing an 8 bit JPEG that I imported from Adobe Lightroom 3.  While using the standard eraser tool to erase the background it would stop working and then move the screen around until I released the mouse button.  This happend about every 10 - 20 seconds.  I'm using a Macbook 2,1 with the OSX 10.6.8.
Recreate Steps:
1) Import 8-bit JPEG from Lightroom 3
2) Select eraser tool on main layer (background)
3) While holding the mouse button down start to erase part of the image
4) About 10 - 20 seconds in the eraser will stop working and then when you move the mouse around image moves
5) To stop the movement you have to release the mouse button and the find the correct part of the image again and start erasing again
6) Most of the time I was viewing the image at >150%
Hope this helps and you can find a fix.  It's very annoying to have to stop and find the correct area of your photo to erase.
Anyone else having this issue?

I am trying to reproduce this but as of now, mine is working properly.
Can you copy and paste your system information in this thread for me to take a look at? (Photoshop  Help>system info)

    Update the plugin or delete it. 
    Kontakt 4 is a 32 bit plugin, it won't run in Logic Pro X

  • Photoshop cs6 error "could not use the type tool because the target channel is hidden.  happens when im typing in photoshop, go to another layer and then come back. can't alter text at that point

    photoshop cs6 error "could not use the type tool because the target channel is hidden.  happens when im typing in photoshop, go to another layer and then come back. can't alter text at that point.  i really need to get thsi figured out. thank you.

    You may have answered my question. I AM using the 64bit version of Illustrator CS6. I had no idea there were bugs in it that affected paths copied and pasted from Illustrator to Photoshop.
    A bit more about what I'm trying to accomplish... I'm trying to follow Deke's tutorial (http://www.deke.com/content/dekes-techniques-018-creating-a-3d-pie-chart) which is already difficult since so much has changed between CS5.5 and 6, but then on top of that, I keep getting errors!
    So I created the pie chart exactly as he shows and copied and pasted into Photoshop exactly as he does. Before submitting this post, though, I tried drawing just two very simple triangle shapes, copying them both and pasting them into Photoshop as a shape layer. The shapes weren't overlapping, but they were a part of the same shape layer just like the pie chart tutorial.
    Thanks for your help. If there is anything else I should try before just giving up because of the 64bit bugs, please let me know.

  • Photoshop CS6 shuts downs when using the move tool

    Photoshop CS6 shuts downs when using the move tool. It seemas to run fine until i try and use the move tool. PS worked fine just a few weeks ago and now it has this issue. What can i do to resole this issue?
    Thnaks,

    7. If you are using more than one video adapter, remove the additional cards.
    Multiple video adapters can cause problems when OpenGL and Photoshop use the GPU. 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. Also make sure that they both support the same versions of OpenGL and Shader Model. Otherwise, crashes and other problems can occur in Photoshop.
    Note: Using two video adapters does not enhance Photoshop's performance.

  • I am trying to use the liquify tool for the first time. I created a new document (RGB/8) and before I place my photo, the liquify option is available. After I place the photo, the liquify option disappears. What am I doing wrong?

    What am I doing wrong?
    For one thing you forgot to mention the version of Photoshop you use.
    Did you place the image as a Smart Object? Liquify got Smart-capabilities with Photoshop CC.

    Hi,
    It's probably the path operations setting.
    The default setting in photoshop cs6 is Exclude Overlapping Shapes and you could also use Combine Shapes.

  • I am trying to use the CAN tool, CANoe and the CAPL language t

    o call functions in the nidaq_xi.dll file. I have placed what I think is the correct code in the capldll.cpp and cdll.h files and included the nidaq.h file, before trying to compile the dll. I keep getting the linker message "unresolved external symbol".
    Has anyone done this successfully? If so How?
    Thanks, in anticipation.

    Hello All,
     I'm trying to creat a DLL with CVI 7.1 to use by CAPL on CANOE 7.1.43.
    So, my CVI can not comple this two key word CAPLEXPORT far CAPLPASCAL that indicate to CAPL that the function is external.
    and When I create normal DLL, the CAL can not take it account, it output that there is no exernal function in used DLL.
    Howe can use CVI to create this DLL.
    I don't have licence of VISUAL C++  .
    Thanks in advance.
    Best Regards

  • Error while trying to use the DNS/DHCP record sync with IPAM script

    Could somebody help me to resolve the below error.
    I get this error message , when i try to do a Invode-ipamdhcplease

    Invoke-IpamDhcpLease : [] Connecting to remote server failed with the following error message :
    The WS-Management service cannot process the request. Cannot find the Microsoft.ipam session configuration in the
    WSMan: drive on the  computer. For more information, see the about_Remote_Troubleshooting Help topic.

    Try the following:
    Reason for issue:

    Get-PSSessionConfiguration *ipam
            Now you should be able to see the Microsoft.ipam ps session configuration
    If the following command succeeds then the error should no longer occur
    $testSession = New-PSSession -computerName <ipamFQDN> -configurationName Microsoft.ipam.

  • Is there a hotkey to break the handles of points while you're using the pen tool?

    When you use the pen tool, it smooths the points as you add them, but sometimes I don't want that, So far, the only way I've been able to combat this is by using the pen tool, pressing V to switch to the selection tool, clicking elsewhere to deselect the path, then pressing P to use the pen tool again, and then selecting the end point again.
    This process is becoming very annoying over the course of long projects, and I'm hoping that someone will be able to solve it for my.
    (I specifically want the hotkey for Mac, but it would be good if you could give the PC hotkey too for other people looking at this.)

    Use the Alt-key to switch to the anchor-point-conversion tool temporarily. Use the command key to switch to the last used selection tool temporarily
