Photoshop 2014 UI smaller than my other Adobe apps on Surface Pro...

I recently purchased a MS Surface Pro 3. For some reason the user interface is smaller in Photoshop than any other Adobe program. The experimental 200% UI preference makes Photoshop FAR to large. I don't know what Adobe is thinking.
All of the other Adobe app interfaces are a nice usable size. Is there any way to get the Photoshop interface to be the same size as other Adobe apps?

Is it normal for Photoshop to have smaller menus than the other Adobe products thought?
Here is a screen capture of two apps and their size comparison.

Photoshop 2014 keeps crashing under Windows 8.1 on a Surface Pro.

Team,
Photoshop 2014 keeps crashing under Windows 8.1 on a Surface Pro.
I have tired.
1. Updating Intel Graphics Card. (unsuccessful)

Well it came installed on my brand new Windows 8 pro w530 I received 4 weeks ago and has never worked. When you try to open power manager it just crashes. If you uninstall it the Lenovo software just keep reinstalling it. If you uninstall the Lenovo PM driver but do not reboot you can then open Power Manager. The minute you reboot the Lenovo software reinstallls the driver.
Why would Lenovo install software on a brand new Windows 8 laptop that is broken and useless? Tech support is absolutely no help they transfer you to the software department which wants to charge you to fix a problem that Lenovo created!!! It is crazy!! I was hoping someone here could solve this problem or maybe someone at Lenovo would see this and get the problem resolved. Tech support has been useless. I reported the problem to them at least 5 times.

Optimize process designing with Photoshop (or other Adobe apps)

Hi
I am searching for a long time to optimize my process, and I want to ask you if there is a solution to what I am looking for:
1. can I create a custom panel in Photoshop CS5 where I can save smart objects? for later use?, I am working with Mini-Bridge, but I wonder if it is posibble to create a stand alone panel from Mini-Bridge for a specific folder (where I will save smart objects)? it is like the "Library" in other Adobe apps, like Illustrator...
2. Is there any tool for Adobe where I can work on a "Project" and not on a file or image or illustration or movie? something that will let me manage and control all my adobe software relative to a Project?
for a website, I design in Photoshop, and I need to save colors during my work, for the specific project, and I will use this branding colors in other applications, I will use a library ob objects, vector and not-vector objects, that i will need to use during all the process (to share panels), so - is there any tool that give me "the all picture"?
Thank you!

Ad 1) You would not need to save Smart Objects in containing files, but could just save psd, tif, psb, pdf and the place them.
While it might be possible to create a separate Panel that may even preview a specific folder I doubt it would be worth the trouble.
If you work on Mac putting a folder into Places makes it available from the open-, save as- or place-dialogs without affecting your Mini Bridge.
Ad 2) If you mean you want to, for example, change a color and that change should be reflected in objects (type, graphics, layers …) in ai-, indd- and psd-files (possible even without opening them) I don’t think there is an option available currently.

Is there other adobe apps that are available for tablets other than apple?

I see that there are several apps that are available for apple users. And I didnt know that photoshop was available to other devices until now. Either i am blind or it isnt as advertised.
Is photoshop the only app available to other devices other than apple?
Also, are these apps available to those who have the creative cloud subscription? or do you have to buy the mobile apps?

Adobe apps on Android. Apps like Ideas and Kuler used to be there but not sure why they were eventually pulled. Not enough interest, maybe? (I believe Kuler eventually went free for iOS.)
You have to buy the apps outright since those are closed electronic marketplaces that have no mechanism to connect to another marketplace (like Creative Cloud). The consolation is that if you stop subscribing to Creative Cloud, you'll keep any apps you've bought.

Photoshop CS4 Crashes When Opening Image - Other Adobe Programs Work

I'm at the end of my rope here.
The problem is (that has spontaneously occurred) is that Photoshop CS4 opens fine. I go to Open, select image, it loads it on screen for a few seconds ,and then I get this Photoshop has stop working and it closes out - no error codes or explanations.
I have updated.
I have reinstalled with a clean it all up program beforehand.
The Open GL drawing is disabled.
I have reset preferences.
Other Adobe programs (e.g., Premiere Pro) work fine.
Nothing particularly new or special done to computer except that I changed from AVG Antivirus to Microsoft Security Essentials.
Windows is updated (I'm Vista - 32bit).
Is the problem my driver (a NVDIA GeForce 6150 nforce 430)? It's updated to the current version, do I need to find the download for an older version and go back in time?
I have only 2GM in RAM (there's plenty of room on the hard drive btw), but I can't spend more money on this 3 yr + computer. Do I need to set my RAM preferences differently?
And I've not had this problem before, it's always worked.
To prevent me from losing my mind any further, any help would be appreciated.

If OpenGL drawing is disabled, then the video driver isn't too likely. Most of the problems in drivers show up with OpenGL drawing enabled.
But printer drivers and fonts can sometimes cause issues.
And there's always a chance that the video driver is failing at something simple (like drawing a menu or cursor).

Integration of other Adobe products..Premiere Pro, After Effects, Audition, Encore DVD

Prior to obtaining CS2 I have been working with the other video/audio Adobe tools; Premiere Pro, After Effects, Audition, Encore DVD.
I fully expected to see integration of these products into the Bridge application after CS2 installation. I was disappointed, there does not appear to be any such integration. I do hope that this is in plan, and that I don't have to spend an "upgrade" fee to use integration that should have been there to begin with.
Even if there is no further integration, it would be nice to be able to continue using the Bridge as my "file manager" in the event I have to transfer my CS2 activation to another computer; after all I still have 4 licensed Adobe products installed on the machine, even if there not, quote, CS2 applications.

I can't use Bridge with my video products anymore. I have 3 systems in my personal development environment. I am now past the 30 day period before activation of CS2 is required on my video editing machine. Now I am no longer able to use Adobe Bridge with my other Adobe (video) products.
Also, now I've noticed that the next level of video products is available, they now have Bridge integrated. As I anticipated in my first append, I cannot continue using Bridge with my Adobe video products unless I spend more money for an upgrade. If the intention is to have Bridge become an integral tool in the creative process, this policy is short sighted. It can't be that difficult to bring out an update for the CS2 level of bridge that would enable it to work with users that have AE 6.5 or PPro 1.5 installed.

Logtransport2 error in Lightroom 6 or other Adobe app

I now get a logtransport2.exe erro in Windows 7 whenever I close the computer since upgrade to LR6. There are logtransport.exe files associated with all the Adobe apps so I can't be positive it is due to LR6. How can I fix this?

Apologies, I've only just realised that you're still having trouble....I thought the instructions in my original link would have been easy to follow, but didn't realise that you were still on XP (though the instructions are more or less the same as Windows 7).
So, starting over, the simplest way to fix the problem that you've inadvertently created is to reset the Lightroom Preferences file. As Geoff has pointed out, the location of the file (called Lightroom 3 Preferences.agprefs) is in C:\Documents and Settings\[user name]\Application Data\Adobe\Lightroom\Preferences.
You just need to use Windows Explorer to go find that file and delete it, it's as simple as that, and you'll then be able to start Lightroom again. However, because the Application Support folder is hidden by default, that may be tripping you up. In which case, simply open the Start Menu and type "%appdata%\Adobe\Lightroom\Preferences" (without the quotes) into the Start Menu "Run..." dialog. That will open Explorer with the Preferences folder opened, so simply delete the preferences file contained therein.

How do I sync themes I create in the app with the the Kuler website and other Adobe apps?

To sync color themes created on your iphone, you need to sign in to the app. You can do this by clicking the settings icon (in the top right corner). Then click "Sign in". You themes will now start syncing with the Kuler website and will also be accessible in other apps like Adobe Ideas and Illustrator CC.

Yes, makes some sense, but the main doubt is: Adobe Ideas don't reconizes .ase files...the only way in which I could make it work was saving the theme created as an image file (jpeg in instance) and email me this file, opening in Ideas and "catching" the colors as I would do with any other image. There's a way somebody could import this themes into Ideas?
The Kuler page says this:
"The color themes you create with the Kuler app can be synced to the Kuler website, an online community for color enthusiasts, for use with other Adobe applications such as Illustrator and Adobe Ideas."
How one can do this? Theres no option in kuler like "Open in" when you save a theme, and Ideas don't recognizes the .ase files generated, so this is the main doubt:
How one can import or sync, whatever, a theme generated in Kuler (the app or the site) into Ideas?
Thank you.

Photoshop CS6 Brush pressure sensitivity not working on the Microsoft Surface Pro.

I have just purchased a Microsoft Surface Pro in anticipation of running Photoshop on it. I installed Photoshop and tried to do some sketches. I created a new file and started sketching. I Immediately felt like something was wrong. I checked my brush settings and saw the pressure sensitivity was not available. Everytine I tried to turn it on it was marked with an exclamation point.
Does anybody know if Adobe is supporting the new pressure sensitive pen from microsoft, or if there is some sort of setting that I am missing? I have tried sketchbook pro 2011, and that works amazingly well with the pen. I hope someone can help me along here, because if this tablet can truely run photoshop, it would be a Game Changer.

Just curious.... has any of you tried the shape dynamics in photoshop and turning on pen pressure?
and in illustrator to modify the size to pressure and variation to maximum? (and of course select that brush preset that you just modified and draw with it using SHIFT+B for blob brush or B for regular brush)
I am also interested in purchasing a Surface pro so please report if this helps.
what I recently discovered in other forums is that Sketchbook Pro works flawlessly in desktop mode. Sketchbook Express in the APP mode doesn't support pressure yet.
there is no official confirmation that the surface pro uses a wacom digitizer, however a few artist friends of mine have gone to the microsoft store... brought their own wacom pens (cintiq 15x pen - older models that works with general tabletpcs) and the pro recognized it. which means that it is a wacom digitizer. it wouldn't make sense if a wacom pen works with a different digitizer board like N-trig.
also read in another forum about adobe using wintab and windows 8 wintab drivers are not there yet.
anyway... I'd be glad to know if this works or not
thanks!

Photoshop CS3 stoped working and all other adobe programs as well

Well i tried updating my photo shop and it than restarted and i became impatient and stopped it after it restarted. later i tried to use photoshop and it said "Adobe photoshop CS3 has stopped working" and than under "a problem caused the program to stop working correctly windows will close the ptogram and notify you if a solution is available" so i than tried to reinstall with out uninstalling first and it still didn't work. does any one know how to fix this? your help would greatly be appreciated!

again, couldn't hurt.
slightly off topic but, i've had nothing but grief from reader 8. i can't view pdfs in the browsers anymore, it just hangs and hangs. maybe it'll come up eventually but after a minute, if i need to see it bad enough i'll kill acro32 process and just download it and view it from the desktop.

Photoshop actions in other Adobe apps?

I have just done a simple job in Acrobat a 4 colour book backed by 4 colours changed to 4 colours backrd by one colour, to reduce plinting costs!
all I had to do was replace every other colour spread with a black and white spread. A bit labourious but no problem! The problem is the book is 128pp there are 3 different versions and they are in 11 languages. A Photoshop type "Actions" would be wonderful. Anybody got any advice.
Lou

These Batch processes seem to refere only to pre-flighting. Years ago I used a package called Quickeys, that worked just like 'Actions' in any App on the Mac but it has lost its eligant simplicity, so I am hoping for an alternative! If there isn't one I will just have to go back to Quickeys
Thanks for your help

Has anyone else had the problem with the number seven on the clock being significantly smaller than the other numbers?

Idk what is going on but it is messed up

i havent noticed this...but now i wanna look when my phone turns backon

Why? my personas height is smaller than the other users althought i set it into 200pix , such as your help advice.

in preview , my personas height seems short in comparision with the other personas.

A Persona covers the user interface part of Firefox (toolbar area) and not the browser window with the web pages.<br />
Add extra empty toolbars if you want to see more of the persona.<br />
You can create extra toolbars to get extra space via View > Toolbars > Customize<br />
You have to put something on a toolbar (drag a Space item onto it) before closing the Customize window because empty toolbars are automatically removed.<br />

How to Step through Scripts that are sent to other Adobe Apps?

A newbie question. In the ExtendScript Toolkit, I'm examining a script that uses BridgeTalk to send a script to Photoshop. I understand how to step through and examine the variables and functions that execute within the Bridge application. But how can I step through and examine the variables that are sent to the Photoshop application? The script executes without breaking as soon as the BridgeTalk script is sent.
Thanks
Help Getting Started with Bridge Scripting

I not sure that you can… What you may be able to do in some cases… is comment out the sending of the bridgetalk message and write the script constructed string message body to the toolkit console… That you might be able to cut and paste to a new script window and run with #target photoshop your other option would be to add lines $.writeln( variable ); at the relevant places in the message body construction…
