Hi,
We sincerely apologize for the problem customers are facing while using a trackpad with Photoshop Elements 11 & 12 on Mac OSX 10.10 (Yosemite).
We have been actively working with Apple to resolve this problem as quickly as possible. We're hopeful this will get completely resolved in an upcoming update of Yosemite(MAC 10.10).
In the meanwhile, you have two options to work around this problem:
1. Option1: Use a mouse instead of the trackpad
2. Option2: Install a plug-in which should workaround the problem
Plug-in installation instructions:
1. Close Photoshop Elements
2. Download this zip file to a location you can easily find (e.g. your desktop)
3. Unzip the file, WhiteWindowWorkaround.plugin, and move it to the Plug-In folder:
• For Elements 12 – //Applications/Adobe Photoshop Elements 12/Support Files/Plug-Ins/
• For Elements 11 - //Applications/Adobe Photoshop Elements 11/Support Files/Plug-Ins/
You can verify the plug-in is installed by launching the Photoshop Elements Editor and choosing Help > System Info... Scroll to the bottom of the text in the dialog and look for the plug-in name "WhiteWindowWorkaround.plugin".
Note: This plugin is a temporary workaround and should be used until this issue is addressed in Mac OSX 10.10 (Yosemite). Please remove this plugin once the issue is officially resolved by Apple.
If you are using a stylus in conjunction with a trackpad, you might see issues with your trackpad. Workaround in this particular case is to use mouse instead of the trackpad.
Hope this helps!
Regards,
vaishali

  • Photoshop not working properly after new installation

    I have a brand new Dell desktop that runs windows 8. I installed the Adobe Creative Suite 5.5 Master Collection and got a message saying that there were errors during installation and some things might not work properly. I uninstalled and did it a second time. Same message.
    I then spoke with an  Adobe agent that helped me download a program to detect what the errors were. He said they were minor issues and shouldn't affect the programs. No help there.
    I then spent hours today speaking with Dell on the phone and the rep took remote control of the computer and did a diagnostics check on the hardware. He said everything is fine. I asked him if it might be the video card needing an update so he ran an update. Same issues, no change.
    We changed the compatability to windows 7 and still no change.
    I then uninstalled the creative suite and tried installing it from the desktop. Still same problems.
    These are the issues in photoshop:
    1)When using certain tools (transform tool, crop tool) the images goes completely black.
    2) The background switches at random- sometimes checkered, sometimes grey, and sometimes black.
    3) Color saturation is incorrectly represented. It switches whenever it wants. For instance, when I zoom in and out it changes.
    In Adobe Bridge some of the RAW images don't show in the program. Some I just can't open. Others open fine. Those images will open in Photoshop but not in Bridge.
    So I have no idea what to do and this is becoming extremely frustrating. I should add I haven't had any problems with Lightroom and it works fine as far as I can tell.
    What could be causing these issues? Could the install CD be damaged?

    I turned off the GPU in Photoshop's preferences as you suggested and everything seems to work properly now in Photoshop. In Adobe bridge the files are also all showing now and there doesn't seem to be the same issue there either.
    I also tried enabling the GPU and changing it to Basic and it continues to work, but when it is changed to advanced when enabled the problems arise again.
    So it seems as though the problem is with the video card or its driver as you said. I am not 100% sure that the Dell rep updated the driver from AMD but I am pretty sure he did. I did go to the AMD website and ran a program to detect if the driver needs to be updated and it resulted in a message saying that the driver is up to date and current.
    As you said this is just a temporary solution and I want to make sure I have a working GPU system. What do you think the problem is then? How would you suggest I proceed? Should I contact Dell and tell them the problem seems to be with the installed video card?

  • Photoshop not working properly with graphics card.

    When I start PS, it has given me messages about making sure I have up to date graphics card drivers, which I do. If I enable Open Gl drawing in Photoshop it won't open some documents or crashes. If I disable open GL drawing, it opens the documents, but obviously isn't giving me the display performance I need. I have been running this setup for about 6 months, but have only started having problems this week. I am running Photoshop CS4 and an nvidia GTX 295.
     Don't appear to be having any catastrophic graphics card problems (touch wood), as I can still run Crysis! Can anybody help me please?

    Thanks for your help guys. It works with open gl using the previous driver. The performance still isn't as good now, but workable. It takes a second to zoom and takes a second to go from looking slightly pixellated to looking smooth. There's also a slight lag on input. Guess I just work with it, till nvidia release another driver that works properly. :/

  • Photoshop not working properly in Mavericks 10.9.1

    So i have major issues in Photoshop since upgrading to Mavericks!! Ive seen this all over the internet, but didnt find a real definitive answer to the issue, so im just going to post my own delema in the hopes we can find a solution.
    Since the "upgrade" to mavericks 10.9.1 my photoshop does not work well at all.  Using my CS6 is a headache.  All of my brushes "stick", that is, they fail to react to me if i want to, say, change a brush size, opacity, or even change a tool.   This happens after about 3-4 minutes of masking, or painting in general.  It even sticks when using the polygonal lasso tool. i'll have to click away from my project, say, to the layers palette, or off photoshop altogether, to re-stimulate the tool to react again. Strange.  This slows down my workflow to a crashing hault. I like to use shortcuts to keep my work going and the sticking(as i am calling it)reverts me to go through a series of on-the-fly remedies in order to correct a problem that i never had to begin with, that is, until the lovely Mavericks update came out and was installed.
    Additionally i had the other popular "white wall" photoshop problem, but after downloading a plug in that i saw in a similiar forum, it appears to have fixed that issue. Drop down menus would go blank, or white, creating a white-wall effect where you couldnt read any of the windows.  The only solution was to auto save your work frequently, then shut down Photoshop and start over again.  Thank god for that plug in.  MAvericks you suck.
    any one else having this problem? questions? comments? You godda be out there becaue ive literally read hundreds of issues like this.
    Thank you for your time in reading this.
    I use Photoshop cs6, with a BRAnD NEW imac late 2013 w/ 32G RAM, 256G flash storage. i use a Wacom intuos5 touch tablet, and notice a connection between these key elements:
    Wacom tablet
    Mavericks
    Photoshop

    I am having a different problem, using Mavericks (10.9.3) with Photoshop CS 5.1 and a Wacom Intuos 5 tablet (6.3.8-2).
    I used to have the white menu problem, but lately I'll be working along and then suddenly my brush tool, say, will turn into the hand tool, but still shows the brush in the tools palette. If I click on another tool, no matter what, it continues to show the hand tool. I can't brush with it anymore, so it isn't just a display problem. I'm often in full screen mode, and if I hit the "f" key to return to standard screen mode, the normal grey background switches to blue, hitting it again switches it to black, and if I keep hitting the "f" it will continue to cycle through the colors.
    I've tried quitting Photoshop and relaunching, and would still have the hand icon. In the past, I would restart the cpu; today, I walked away and when I returned (within 10 minutes, probably) it was acting normally again.
    This scenario plays out sometimes once a week, sometimes multiple times. I can't find anything relating to this particular issue doing a google search. Any suggestions?

  • Crm pc ui F4 Help does not work properly for custom field

    Hi ,
    I am having a issue with F4 help. For a custom field I have enabled BP search. The custom field gets populated with selected BP number from the search screen.
    Problem is, 
    Once opportunity is saved, for standard fields BP name gets displayed while for my custom field BP name does not get displayed only BP number stays at the place.
    What should be custom field size to accomodate BP selection?
    Have anybody done something like assigning BP search with custom field ?
    Any Ideas if I am missing something?

    Hi Bhatt,
      Your problem isnt in the F4 application. The problem is the logic of class corresponding to fieldgroup that your field is contained.
      You need a development like standard.
    Regards.

  • Group Policy Helper tool not working properly

    Hello,
    I`m using IE 9 on a x64 Win 7 enterprise PC with ZCM 10.3.4.
    When Im logging into ZCC and start to configure a "windows group policy" the group policy helper tool starts and begins to download the policy.
    Then the gpedit.msc appears i get the popup "group policy settings imported successfully" immediately. This popup should certainly come up, when i close the gpedit.msc to import the changed policy setting.
    But so i always get an empty policy for upload.
    Any hints what`s wrong with it?!

    IE 9 is not supported, you need to stay on IE8 until 11.2 is released (15 march).

  • I have downloaded and installed Photoshop Elements 12 on Windows7. It does not work properly. Help?

    I downloaded Photoshop Elements 12 to work on my new platform Windows 7. It does not work properly. Specifically my problem is that I can only load one picture at a time onto the work area even if I have chosen two separate pictures. In other words I can not cut and paste not can I join pictures together.
    If I load the program on my older computer with WindowsXP it works fine.
    Any suggestions would be appreciated.

    You have probably forgotten. In recent versions of PSE you must go to the edit>preferences>general and turn on Allow Floating Documents.

  • Adobe Photoshop Touch is not working properly on my Samsung Tablet

    I just recently downloaded the Photoshop Touch App to my Samsung Tablet.  The program will open and some of the tools will work, but MOST tools will not!  I have attempted to clear the cashe, uninstall, and then reinstall the program.  The problem persists.  When will Adobe provide an update with repairs so that I can actually use the App I just bought?

    Dear Guido.
    We have followed instructions to uninstall and and then reinstall the Photoshop Touch program onto the Samsung Galaxy Tab 3. 
    It is still not working properly.
    NONE of the Fx's are working.  (about 26 effects!)
    The Fx's under the menu headings of... "Basic" , "Stylize" , "Artistic", or "Photo" do not work! 
    Under the heading of "Adjustments"... only Invert, and Black and White work... NONE of the others do!
    The items that do work are... the Camera Layers, Layers and Selections, Image Blending, and the Basic FX called Gaussian Blur.
    Croping image size, text, etc. under the & symbol also work. 
    So, as you can see....at this point we have purchased an App that is practically USELESS even tho the Google Play Store said that it was compatible with our device.
    Please Advise, or Create a proper Update for this device,
    Thank you

    You need to upgrade your copy of MS Office. You're using a version that is 8 years old (at least). You can buy Office 2011, which will work. You could also get a copy of Pages from the App Store, which is cheaper and will open Word files (though not perfectly). Or you could get a free Office clone, like OpenOffice or LibreOffice.

    Hello. I sent my WRT1900AC V1 to Linksys four days ago (Monday) via UPS with a RMA. Linksys paid the shipping and everything. The router is still in route, and it should arrive to their offices tomorrow. Once they receive the WRT1900 AC V1, they are going to send me an EA8500 as a replacement. But I have been reading the comments about the EA8500 here in the forum and it seems to have the same problems. I guess the firmware is extremely flawed in both routers (maybe it is almost the same code?). Anyway, I will try the EA8500 and I hope it works. I bought a temporary router from Walmart and I paid $35 for it. It is a Belink N600 DB. I can't believe that a $35 router is working a lot, lot, lot better than my previous $250 WRT1900AC router. Unbelievable. If the EA8500 doesn't work, I'm going to try and get my money back from Linksys, or contact The Consumerist or someone to get my money back and get a Nighthawk instead.
