Hold crtl and run photoshop cs6 , can someone help me?

Hi
i know that holding ctrl+alt+shift and run photoshop should reset the preferences
and shift+f2 or only shift should ask me to disable yes or not the plugins
but i did notice that holding the crtl and run cs6 , it does perform some action
it doesn't reset preferences or asks to disable or enalbe plugins or select a new folder
but for sure holding Ctrl (in windows) and start photoshop cs6 (in my case 64bit under windows 7 sp1 64) performs an action
might someone tell/explain what does photoshop cs6 when starts holding the key CTRL
thanks a lot

Adobe writes To restore preferences quickly using a keyboard short cut:
Press and hold Alt+Control+Shift (Windows) or Option+Command+Shift (Mac OS) as you start Photoshop. You are prompted to delete the
current settings. The new preferences files are created the next time you start Photoshop.
Note: Using the keyboard shortcut, preference files for custom shortcuts, workspaces, and color settings will also be reset to default.
However If you use windows and double click on desktop icon to Start Photoshop  you need to do that then quickly Press and hold Alt+Control+Shift (Windows).  If your not prompted to delete you missed the reset startup window.  If your holding down Alt+Control+Shift (Windows) and double click a desktop icon the shortcut icon's property window will open not Photoshop.
Adobe writes Troubleshoot installed optional and third-party plug-ins
To quickly determine whether Photoshop is loading a problematic optional or third-party plug-ins, do the following:
Close Photoshop.
Hold down the Shift key and launch Photoshop. A dialog will appear during launch that reads "Skip loading optional and third-party plug-ins?"
Click Yes to skip loading optional and third-party plug-ins.
Note: This only disables optional and third-party for the current session. If you quit and restart Photoshop without holding down the Shift key, the optional or third-party plug-ins will be enabled.
So f2 is not needed only the shift  is needed to get the prompt.
CS6 does start differently when Ctrl is held down on my windows 7 machine.  I see the normal CS6 splash screen on my desktop as usually for a while then a black window with white border appears below the splash screen that windows closes then the  Phototoshop Desktop window opens on top and the splash window is closed.
I can not find any documentation on the Ctrl key startup process Adobe's Documentation is not the best. Also holding the Alt Key seems to work the same was as the ctrl key.
Holding Ctrl+Alt produces an additional popup window where you change you scratch disks preferences. Adobe documentation is not the best
also happens with cc
Ctrl+Shift produces a Browse for folder dialog with CS6 but not with  CC

    Did you buy PSE in the mac app store? If not, just go to Help>Updates in the editor and update camera raw and you should be able to open the raw files in PSE 12 directly without the DNG converter.

    Tina,
    I would go crazy if this was me.  You may find this interesting from the customer agreement (to see full agreement go here:Customer Agreement | Verizon Wireless):
    "HOW AND WHEN CAN I DISPUTE CHARGES?
    If you're a Postpay customer, you can dispute your bill within 180 days of receiving it, but unless otherwise provided by law or unless you're disputing charges because your wireless device was lost or stolen, you still have to pay all charges until the dispute is resolved. If you're a Prepaid customer, you can dispute a charge within 180 days of the date the disputed charge was incurred. YOU MAY CALL US TO DISPUTE CHARGES ON YOUR BILL OR ANY SERVICE(S) FOR WHICH YOU WERE BILLED, BUT IF YOU WISH TO PRESERVE YOUR RIGHT TO BRING AN ARBITRATION OR SMALL CLAIMS CASE REGARDING SUCH DISPUTE, YOU MUST WRITE TO US AT THE CUSTOMER SERVICE ADDRESS ON YOUR BILL, OR SEND US A COMPLETED NOTICE OF DISPUTE FORM (AVAILABLE AT VERIZONWIRELESS.COM), WITHIN THE 180–DAY PERIOD MENTIONED ABOVE. IF YOU DO NOT NOTIFY US IN WRITING OF SUCH DISPUTE WITHIN THE 180-DAY PERIOD, YOU WILL HAVE WAIVED YOUR RIGHT TO DISPUTE THE BILL OR SUCH SERVICE(S) AND TO BRING AN ARBITRATION OR SMALL CLAIMS CASE REGARDING ANY SUCH DISPUTE."
    This may help you also: Arbitration and Mediation FAQs | Verizon Wireless
    You can dispute any charges by doing an Arbitration or Mediation.  I have never done it, so I can not help much there but this all may get you started.
    Let me know if any of this works! Good Luck! Please keep me updated. I really hope they help you.

    my ipad will not sync or back-up and thus cannot install OS5, it starts fine, but then says "cannot verify applications" and stops sync.  Can someone help me?

    going to "transfer purchases' does work - however the thermometer bar at the bottom reflecting apps, music, video, book, etc cpapcity fraks out, sliding left to right maybe 4 or 5 times during the process.  Have you ever seen this?
    After it is finished, the SYNC button is not longer darkened - so I thought it was safe to attampt an upgrade to OS05... which i am doing now... takes maybe 20 mins and then I normally get the error "the applications on this ipad cannot be verified" and the bottom thermometer bar zeros out all by my music.  The content and apps are all fine on teh ipad.  so strange.  I made an appointment with customer service tomrrow AM - but i do not think i should have to pay for this - i have never even used support before!
    I will update if it works - or re[eats the strange pattern again and does not update.
    Thanks for your time and help!

    1. Restart the computer in safe mode. Certain caches maintained by the system will be rebuilt.
    Safe mode is much slower to start up than normal. The next normal startup may also be somewhat slow.
    When the login screen appears, restart as usual (not in safe mode) and test. There's no need to log in while in safe mode.
    Note: If FileVault is enabled, or if a firmware password is set, or if the startup volume is a software RAID, you can’t start in safe mode. In that case, go to Step 2.
    If there's no change after taking this step, continue.
    2. Back up all data before proceeding.
    Triple-click anywhere in the line below on this page to select it:
    /var/folders
    Right-click or control-click the highlighted line and select
              Services ▹ Reveal in Finder (or just Reveal)
    from the contextual menu.* A folder should open with an item named "folders" selected. Move the selected item to the Trash. You may be prompted for your administrator login password. Restart the computer and empty the Trash.
    *If you don't see the contextual menu item, copy the selected text to the Clipboard by pressing the key combination  command-C. In the Finder, select
              Go ▹ Go to Folder...
    from the menu bar and paste into the box that opens by pressing command-V. You won't see what you pasted because a line break is included. Press return.

  • Yeah..I washed my iPOD with my pants and now it died can someone help me?

    So can someone help me restore it or should I start preparing for its funeral? lol but seriously please?
      Windows XP  

    Here is some helpful things you can do with your washed ipod;
    1. DO NOT PLUG IT INTO YOUR COMPUTER! (sorry for the caps but that is the mst important thing to do right away
    2. place the ipod wityh the screen face down on a towel. and leave it alone for at least a week!!!! ...sorry another critical thing to do ASAP.
    3. There is no availability for free repair from apple because it was dammaged by you and it is not a manufacturers defect. so it is not covered under the warranty. If you do the previous steps right away. adn leave it alone you might not have completeyl damaged the ipod. After a week if you cant seem to get any life from it then there is nothing you can do. If you wanna try to get it repaired with your own money ....google for possible repair services.
    I thnk it would be easier to just buy a new ipod though because repair can be costly adn since you washed it you have damaged the circuitry adn everything!
    Good luck

  • Adding Data into text and graphic frames - PLEASE CAN SOMEONE HELP?

    Hello Script buddies,
    Here is my script and I want to place data into the frames which I set up already in the inDesign template which loads correctly but unable to place the data into the frames, please refer to comments and if anyone can help me I will be very grateful.
    strFile = "C:\Users\dean.brooks\Documents\PoolSigns.xlsx"
    Set objExcel = CreateObject("Excel.Application")
    objExcel.Workbooks.Open strFile
    intRow = 2
    Set objSheet = objExcel.ActiveWorkbook.WorkSheets(1)
    ' Cycle through cells in Pool Sign Schedule to retreive data
    Do Until objSheet.Cells(intRow, 3).Value = ""
    PoolSignScheduleSignNo = Trim(objSheet.Cells(intRow, 1).Value)
    PoolSignScheduleTemplate = Trim(objSheet.Cells(intRow, 3).Value)
    PoolSignScheduleDepth = Trim(objSheet.Cells(intRow, 5).Value)

    myDocument.Close
    intRow = intRow + 1
    Loop
    objExcel.Quit
    WScript.Quit

    Hi Robert,
    Your problem starts here:
    Set DepthMarker = myDocument.Textframes.Item
    ...which item? Item takes either an integer (the index of the item) or a string (the contents of the label property, if any).
    Next, however, is that you should be more specific about *where* the text frame is in the document. What page or spread is it on? Let's say that the frame "DepthMarker" is on page 1:
    Set DepthMarker = myDocument.Pages.Item(1).TextFrames.Item(1)
    If there's only one frame on that page, you're in great shape. If not, you need to come up with some way to differentiate one frame from another. Script labels are a great way to do this. Let's say you've used the Script Label panel to add the label "DepthMarker" to the relevant frame on page 1, and added the label "WarningText" to another frame. In that case, you'd use something like this:
    Set DepthMarker = myDocument.Pages.Item(1).TextFrames.Item("DepthMarker")(0)
    Set WarningText = myDocument.Pages.Item(1).TextFrames.Item("WarningText")(0)
    ...When you use a string to refer to a page item by its label, InDesign returns an array, so you need to get the first item in the array (assuming that there's only one page item on the page with that label).
    Hope this makes sense! I'm typing it off the top of my head because I have to go speak at a conference tomorrow and am short on time--but it should get you pointed in the right direction.
    Thanks,
    Ole

    Please stop using chat language, thank you.
    As for your problem, it's simple, when 32bit software is used there will only be:
    4 Gigabyte addresses (is NOT the same as memory)
    -BIOS = 3.7GB addresses left
    -Videocards = 2.7 GB addresses left for memory to be used.
    Only 64bit OS and 64bit software, must be both 64bit, can go above the 4GB addresses and remap devices.

  • It seems not possible to create this kind of "Brush" in Photoshop CS6, can anyone help?

    I found this website.
    http://newhive.com/andrew/drawonme?q=%23All%2F
    And I thought this "brush" is a  really cool technique for fast sketches. But it does not seem possible in photoshop, does it? I tested it with CS5 and even the new CS6 Brushes.
    Thanks for any help

    If I understand correctly the »thing« about this Brush is that it creates individual lines that interact with existing strokes by fanning them out when in proximity to an existing path.
    I think this is not possible with a Brush in Photoshop what with it being a pixel oriented application (with some vector functionality, though, fortunately).

  • Error message 7 and 6034.  Have uninstalled and reinstalled iTunes 7 times and errors continue.  Can someone help please?  Been working on this for 4 hours.

    Itunes updated on my pc and laptop and now I cannot open the program on either one. Running Windows 7 on both.  Error number 7 and R6034 continue to pop up.  I have uninstalled (6 times) all of the Apple programs, rebooted, reinstalled, etc. as badgerfan1101 posted but cannot open it on either computer.  I even did a restore to an earlier date with hopes that would solve the problem.  Any other ideas?  Been working on this for 4 hours 

    Hey gardenqueen1,
    When you uninstalled and reinstalled iTunes, did you use this article?
    iTunes 11.1.4 for Windows: Unable to install or open
    http://support.apple.com/kb/TS5376
    If you haven't already done these steps, this section contains information that might help your situation, as the order and manner which you uninstall has an effect on the outcome:
    Use the Control Panel to uninstall iTunes and related software components in the following order and then restart your computer:
    iTunes
    Apple Software Update
    Apple Mobile Device Support
    Bonjour
    Apple Application Support (iTunes 9 or later)
    Important: Uninstalling these components in a different order, or only uninstalling some of these components may have unintended affects.
    Let us know if following that article and uninstalling those components in that order helped the situation.
    Welcome to Apple Support Communities!
    Sincerely,
    Delgadoh

    hi April!
    just doublechecking something. is the download hanging at the initial phase of proceedings? or is this happening after the installation has actually pretty much completed?
    if it's at the later stage of proceedings, are you getting a sort of "brief flash of a license screen? or is something else a little different happening?
