Loading Images CS5 32 & 64 bit

When I load an image (jpeg etc) into Photoshop it shows up in the layers palet as a background but does not show in the workspace, where I see a chequered background. How do I overcome this? What am I missing?
This is the trial version of CS5 Extended on Windows 7
Thanks
Colin

You are right on the money:  You have an old graphics card, and if I recall correctly nVidia hasn't updated drivers for that one in a while (i.e., you have old bugs that have been fixed with newer cards).
Keep in mind that the accelerated OpenGL implementation is in the video driver, and Photoshop likely asks more than your card and driver can deliver.
A good card for Photoshop delivers a benchmark score of about 500 or better on this site:  http://www.videocardbenchmark.net/gpu_list.php
The good news is that pretty decent graphics cards can be bought for well under a hundred bucks at the local high tech store (e.g., CompUSA or Best Buy).  For example, an ATI Radeon HD 4670 with 1 GB of GDDR3 was about $60 when I looked about a month ago.  A new card will definitely improve your computing experience, and not just with Photoshop.

  • Converting 32bits image to 8bits cause Photoshop CS5 64 Bits to crash

    Everything is in the title. I removed my nVidia Display drivers in safe mode and reinstalled, the problem persist. I reset my PS settings... same problem.
    It works only in Photoshop 32bits.
    Any ideas of what is going wrong?

  • Photoshop CS5 64-bit crashes when opening an image; 32-bit works fine

    This is a bit of a tricky problem, but if I start up Adobe Photoshop CS5 64-bit, it runs alright. But the second I choose an image and open it, I get "Photoshop has stopped working..." and Windows tries to find a solution.
    However, the 32-bit version of PS CS5 works perfectly.
    On my Mac Mini, however, which ONLY HAS Photoshop 64-bit (Creative Suite 5, Snow Leopard, latest updates), images open and edit fine.
    On my PC, I also had this same exact problem with the 64-bit version of Photoshop CS4.
    I read in a few forums that it might be a corrupt font, etc., but I have no idea why a corrupt font would be affecting how Photoshop 64-bit opens an image, especially if I don't even get a chance to edit the image or anything. The images I've been trying to update are JPEGs.
    I have all of the updates installed on my PC regarding CS5. It's completely updated. I am really stuck. I'd like to be able to take advantage of the 64-bit technology and put that version of Photoshop to use, but I can't.
    Thanks in advance. I'm willing to try anything at this point.

    I did my best to recreate it to look the way it looks in the console, so nothing should be confusing.
    Also, @Chris Cox- I do have the most recent beta driver installed for my onboard graphics card, which is an Nvidia GeForce 6150SE, maybe that could be causing it. I will uninstall it and install the most recent recommended release from Nvidia's site.

  • CS5 Bridge Only Opens Image in 64 Bit

    Just upgraded from CS4 to CS5. Many problems but 1 major problem is that when I open Bridge and click to open image it opens in CS5 64 bit only!
    Any help here?
    Thanks!
    Dan

    There are a couple of things you could do...
    If you really want it to open a particular file type every time in the 32 bit Photoshop on your 64 bit system (presumably because you have certain plug-ins only available on the 32 bit side), you can go into Bridge and choose Edit - Preferences - File Type Associations.  Scroll down to the file type you want to associate with Photoshop 32 bit, then change it.  Choose Browse and navigate over to "C:\Program Files (x86)\Adobe\Adobe Photoshop CS5\Photoshop.exe".  Voila, now Photoshop 32 bit is associated.
    A way to keep the association normally with the 64 bit Photoshop, but occasionally use 32 bit Photoshop is this:  Start the 32 bit Photoshop first, then in Bridge do the Open With Photoshop thing.  It will use the version that's already running.
    Hope this helps!

  • Photoshop CS5.1 Won't Load Images On Screen at retina MacBook pro.

    Photoshop CS5.1 Won't Load Images On Screen at retina MacBook pro. Any help? Thanks!

    I'm surprised that Apple would attempt such a "hack" design...  Switching graphics adapters mid-stream is no small task, and I can't imagine that they could ever make it work seamlessly.
    Keep in mind that the nature of the complex GPU beast is that graphics hardware doesn't all work the same (or right) and application software has to make decisions about what to do and what not to do, and even when to invoke certain workarounds - or it would never be possible to run on multiple platforms. 
    Yes, that seems wrong, but it's necessary and it makes developing cutting-edge graphics applications in the real world much more expensive.
    The decisions aren't re-made by an application all the time - that would slow things down terribly.  Instead, often the run-time environment is characterized at application startup and the features remembered for later use.  Modern applications actually even create programs (e.g., shaders or OpenCL programs) to run on specific GPU hardware, and they have to be compiled - something usually done by the application at startup.
    Now imagine that someone changes the capabilities of the graphics hardware completely after the application has started - even from one vendor's implementation to another (Intel to nVidia).
    Like I said, I'm surprised a reasonable system designer could ever think that swapping GPUs at run-time could be made to work.  At least Apple allows you to turn it off!
    Does Apple offer any "geek-level" configuration options that can force the use of a particular GPU for a given application?  It seems that this could be an automated workaround that would allow a given application to see only one GPU, which is what Photoshop appears to need here.

  • CS5 64 bit merging HDR image problem

    Hello,
    I am doing a HDR image lesson (Adobe CS5 Classroom in a Book, page 139) using three .DNG files from the training CD.
    If I use CS5 32 bit all (model's face and background) is ok.
    If I use CS5 64 bit the image has bad background colors and a portion of the model's face is dark red.
    So I a wondering if possibly the DNG was created by CS5 32 bit and cannot be opened and processed in CS5 64 bit HDR?
    Note:
    Each DNG image looks good using CS5-64 File Open.
    I have two jpg if needed to show.
    Vaughan

    Has anyone tried this on an installation of Adobe Photoshop CS5 or CS5.1, with an older version of Adobe Camera RAW installed?
    I had this issue reported to me by a faculty member who is attempting to teach this lesson in one of our Mac Labs.  She has taught this lesson in the past without issue, but, recently reported this issue.  We recently upgraded our photography lab's equipment, which included new iMacs, and updates to software installed in the lab, including the CS5.5 Design Premium suite.  I'm able to replicate the issue on all the computers in the photo lab, with the same issue as others described above.  I then went to try to replicate the issue on my personal computer with CS5.5 installed, and, surprisingly, the HDR merge worked successfully.  The only signifigant difference on that computer was that it was running Adobe Camera RAW 6.6, rather than the current 6.7.  I then went ahead and updated the Camera RAW on that computer up to version on 6.7, and the problem doing the merge with these specific files returned as it had in the photo lab.
    So perhaps this is a combination of 64bit and Camera RAW 6.7?  I can't get the 32bit workaround to work on the Mac's I'm testing.  Any suggestions would be appreciated.

  • Photoshop CS5 64 bit trial version...I can't get edited images to save changes

    CS5 Web Premium Trial Version
    I'm using Photoshop CS5 (64-bit).  I've made some minor changes to my photo.  I've saved, yet the changes won't save.  Is this because it is a trail version or am I doing something wrong?  I'm wanting to use the photo in a Word doc.  Every time I upload it there its the original photo
    Thanks for the Help
    Danny

    Are you saving the file using the same type (e.g., jpg)?  Do you have file extensions hidden?
    Same location as the original file?
    Do you see the changes if you double click the file in Explorer and open it in the Windows Photo viewer?

  • Owl Orphanage Error loading CS5 32-bit

    After successfully loading Photoshop  CS5 several times this morning, I suddenly started getting this error upon loading:
    Any idea what would have caused that and more importantly, how to get RID of it?
    Bob

    Yep, I'd added OnOne Phototools 1.0.3 and that messed it up.
    When I reloaded just the 1.0 version it works without the error.
    Go figure.

  • Can't start CS5 64-bit in Windows 7

    Can't seem to find an exact fix for this problem. I reinstalled Windows 7 (64-bit version), and of course had to reinstall all applications. Verified I'm running Win7-64 bit, but now when I launch Photoshop CS5-64 bit, I only get an error message that says "System unable to find file specified", even though the file is listed in the proper place by Explorer. I'm able to launch CS5-32 bit version normally, but of course that version limits the RAM available to about 3GB and I have 16GB installed. I'm able to successfully launch Lightroom 3 in 64-bit mode.
    I've tried uninstalling Photoshop CS5, rebooting and re-installing in a different location with a fresh download of CS5 from Adobe.com but still always the same error message that "System cannot find file specified" when launching.
    Any ideas on how to fix this?

    Many thanks.
    I think you've got two different types of problem going on at once here. Let's try clearing this second error out of the way first.
    the second is "Error writing to file: C:\ Program Files(x86)\Common Files\Apple\Apple Application Support\Webkit.resources\inspector\Images\timelinePillGreen.png. Verify that you still have acess to that directory."
    That one's consistent with disk/file damage. The first thing I'd try with that is running a disk check (chkdsk) over your C drive.
    XP instructions in the following document: How to perform disk error checking in Windows XP
    Vista instructions in the following document: Check your hard disk for errors
    Windows 7 instructions in the following document: How to use CHKDSK (Check Disk)
    Select both Automatically fix file system errors and Scan for and attempt recovery of bad sectors, or use chkdsk /r (depending on which way you decide to go about doing this). You'll almost certainly have to schedule the chkdsk to run on startup. The scan should take quite a while ... if it quits after a few minutes or seconds, something's interfering with the scan.
    Does the chkdsk find/repair any damage? If so, can you get an install to go through without that particular error message afterwards? (Whether this works or not, we still might have to deal with the system services message.)

  • Photoshop CS5 64-bit Crashing due to CoolType.dll

    Spent 30 minutes on the phone with Adobe's fairly useless tech support, who asked me to do all the things I had already tried (delete prefs, turn of Font Preview, rename the scripting support plug-in, turn off OpenGL, etc.) in order to find out why my Photoshop CS5 64-bit on Windows 7 started crashing whenever I tried to use the text / type tool or opened a document with a type layer selected.
    He thought he was done giving "support" when he said "Well, I suggest you just use the 32-bit version". When I reminded him that that didn't actually find / fix / solve the problem, he put me on hold again, then told me to use the System File Checker (sfc.exe) tool to check CoolType.dll, which is what's crashing Photoshop.
    He told me that I would have to call Microsoft, because CoolType.dll is a system file and Adobe doesn't support those.
    Hmm, I guess he didn't realize that CoolType.dll is an ADOBE system file that ADOBE put on my system.
    Anyway...anybody know how to fix / replace CoolType.dll so that I can go back to using the 64-bit version of Photoshop CS5? I checked Adobe's website and couldn't find anyplace to download the current version.
    Thanks in advance!
    Gensy

    I'm having this issue too.  Not sure if I have two issues or it's all related to this.  Most of the time, when I go to a folder to save an image, the program just dissapears with no error message at all and all my work is lost.  Anything I did during that session in PS is lost, including any modification of preferences, new actions made, etc.  I have tried reinstalling window 7 and CS5 and even on a clean system the problem occurs.  I have also tried uninstalling all non-essential fonts and deleting the font cache.  And, all the stuff you mentioned such as preferences in PS and dissabling  OpenGL, etc.  and have had three Microsoft tech sessions.  They don't see any evidence of the crash on my system so can't help with it.

    Both are referencing cooltype.dll. I ran Font Doctor on all system and non-system fonts and found no errors. Booted without Extensis Suitcase loading. Nothing works. All 32 bit programs work fine. Any clues would be appreciated.

    It does not necessarily mean a "corrupt" font, but can be a font that PrPro, and PS, cannot handle.
    Though I have read that changes have been made, Open Office's DejaVu font would crash PrPro's Titler - every time. There are quite a few others. Font Dr, and similar utilities, will not see the font(s) as corrupt, but they are so poorly designed, that PrPro and PS cannot deal with them.
    Though it can be a long, drawn out process, one can often zero in on the problem font(s), with a little work. This is accomplished by first defining the "System Fonts," and not touching them. Then, uninstall half of the remaining fonts, and testing PrPro and PS. If they launch fine, you know that somewhere in that list of fonts, the problem exists. If there is still a failure to launch, chances are good that the problem font(s) reside in that half, that are still installed. Note: because the problem still exists, does not guarantee that there are NOT problem fonts in that uninstalled group, so keep that in mind.
    Repeat the proces, by uninstalling half of the remaining fonts and testing.
    If necessary, repeat by removing half of the now remaining fonts and testing.
    When you get to a point, where you are no longer getting problems, reinstall fonts, in small groups, testing in between. The smaller the groups, the easier it will be to pinpoint the problem font(s).
    Keep notes on which fonts you are uninstalling and reinstalling, until you narrow it down to the problem font(s).
    I would start by uninstalling any "free fonts," and then commercial, 3rd party fonts. A lot of free fonts are just poorly designed, and can cause issues, though they might work fine in some other programs.
    I use a font manager, so that I only have ~ 350 fonts installed at one time, and then dynamically install fonts, as needed for Projects. That keeps my machine clean, and if, upon installation, I get a crash/hang, I know that at least one font in that Set is causing it. This helps, as my workstation has ~ 19,000 fonts on it, and some are free fonts, and many are from 3rd parties. Some are also very, very old.
    Good luck,
    Hunt
    PS - one common cause for hangs on loading PrPro can be from VST's, used in Audio-editing. If you also have a lot of VST's, you could have two issues with two separate programs, i..e. PS hanging on fonts, and PrPro hanging on VST's. The results would be the same, but the causes could be different. That leads to even more work. For PrPro, also see this ARTICLE. If you get PS launching, but PrPro is still not functioning, drop by the PrPro Forum, and someone can help you there.

  • Photoshop cs5 64-bit hangs all the time when editing photos on Win 7 64-bit?

    Recently installed Master Suite Collection CS5 on Win 7 64-bit.  The computer is a 64-bit i5-480 CPU Lenovo and has an Intel HD GPU.  Photoshop CS5 64-bit hangs constantly when I load a picture for editing and there is no way to get rid of the photoshop process except for a reboot.  Have tried PSkill, and other options and nothing can get rid of it excetp for a re-boot.  This is a major pain because I cannot get any work done.
    The Master Suite cost me a fortune and can't get a basic application to work properly
    Help!!!

    Let me first start by saying the Intel GPU drivers that implement OpenGL are often faulty.  That's quite possibly the root cause of your problems.
    If you reconfigure Photoshop not to try to use the OpenGL subsystem, via Edit - Preference - Performance, and unchecking the [ ] Enable OpenGL Drawing checkbox, does it get any better?  Make sure to close and restart Photoshop after making this configuration change.
    It is possible Intel has released newer drivers that may have corrected the OpenGL problems.  Check their web site.

  • Dynamically loading images: UI Loader issue

    I posted this last week, but did not show good examples to get help. Admittedly, I am new to flash, so this may be a bit elementary, so my apologies in advance. I am trying to dynamically load images through the UI Loader component.

  • Problems loading Images

    Hello !
    I'm trying to make a small card game.
    I have 52 small gif files(68x94 pix;500 byts each).
    When I'm loading those cards on a JPanel, it takes to much time (about 15 sec);
    I've enabled double-bufering (no changes);
    Without loading Images, all the stuff (JButtons,JTextFile, some String paintings, etc.) is coming up instantly.
    I'm using a P III 1,1 Ghz, 256 Mo RAM. with WinXP (could be, Bill Gates fault ? -:) )
    I've copyed here an extras of code:
    class pan extends JPanel{
         Color myC=new Color(0,170,85);     
         Toolkit tt=Toolkit.getDefaultToolkit();
         String st="";
         Random rnd=new Random();
         public pan(){setDoubleBuffered(true);}
         public void paintComponent(Graphics g){
         super.paintComponents(g);                    
         g.setColor(myC);
         g.fillRect(0,0,800,500);
         int x=220;int y=10;int m;
         for(int i=0;i<4;i++){
              int c=i;
              for(int j=0;j<13;j++){
              int v=j+2;
              switch(c){
              case 0:m=c+v-1;break;
              case 1:m=13+v-1;break;
              case 2:m=26+v-1;break;
              case 3:m=39+v-1;break;
              default: m=52;}
              g.setColor(Color.white);
              g.fillRoundRect(x,y,72,97,13,13);
              g.setColor(Color.black);
              g.drawRoundRect(x,y,72,97,13,13);
              st="Imagini/Cardsgif/"+"C"+m+".gif";
              g.drawImage(tt.getImage(st),x+2,y+2,this);          
              x=x+20;
              st="";
              if((j>0)&(j%12==0)){
                   y=y+100;
                   x=220;
              

    I just started noticing this problem too. On an order confirmation page on Amazon, many of the button graphics were question marks. But it's random. If I refresh the page, some of the images load but others don't load. All of the images load (so it's not an image format problem), but NEVER all at the same time!
    (On a side note, it's VERY bad that Safari displays the question mark graphic instead of the alternate image tag text. There was no way to know which question marks (which should be buttons to click on) are for submitting, cancelling, veiwing order details, editing shipping address, etc.)
    Even more frustrating is that a friend finally switched to Macs from years of being a PC user. Her brand new Intel iMac is exhibiting the same problem when she views her and her friend's MySpace pages. This was her very first day of Mac ownership, and there was nothing installed on her iMac except what it came with. Everything was still on the default settings. Same thing...refreshing the page would randomly load some images but not others.
    It's all a bit embarassing because the "it just works" arguement was one of the things that convinced her to switch to a Mac. I'd like to offer her a fix to overcome this poor first impression.
    PS: I'm on Tiger with the Tiger version of Safari. She's obviously on Leopard.
