Photoshop acting buggy after 10.6.5 update help please

So after I get a work-around for the bluetooth problem i can't seem to solve, my photoshop is totally screwy. First it's cs4 extended and my macbook pro is 3.06 with 6gb ram. I never had problems before the update and I've done everything you can think of to fix it . Reset pram, power reset, repaired permissions, purged photoshop, reinstalled photoshop, allocated all ram to photoshop, downloaded the fan utility thinking my computer was overheating and adjusted the fans to run cooler, no fix. etc, etc.
The problem is that when i'm working the screen the main window does not show changes, like when i use the select tool, i get no dancing ants? If i change the gradient I can see the thumbnail on the right change, but the main image does nothing for a very long time... I have to wait like 20 seconds for anything to show on the main screen while I'm moving my mouse around and selecting different tools to see if it's frozen. It's not frozen, but just taking forever to show me anything... I try to select text, but nothing highlights, but if I change the text, it does change, i just can't see it on the main window! Photoshop is all of a sudden taking up 120% of my processing when i have a 6mb file open and nothing else.
Please offer suggestions on what i can do. Disk utility/repair didn't find any errors. all my other program seem to be running fine, just photoshop is screwed up. I don't have any plug-ins. or anything different than before I updated. (well besides my bluetooth not working correctly) this is very frustrating.
Please offer some suggestions, but i've tried everything i could find and nothing seems to work, nor do i seem to have any other problems...
I am about to smash the computer I'm so frustrated.

Tahnks for the reply.
I've switched users, ran onyx , cleared everything, 5 or 6 time. etc, etc. I'm not new to Macs and diagnosing problems, but this is driving me frickin crazy!
Photoshop cs4 11.0.1 does it and even reinstalled 11 does it. I've cleaned up fonts and reverted to my fonts library from june and still problems.

Iphone wont turn on after ios 7.1 update, help please

Guys, please help me with this problem. After updating it to iOS 7.1 its no longer turning on

Will not turn on, will not turn on unless connected to power, or unexpected power off
Verify that the Sleep/Wake button functions.   If it does not function, inspect it for signs of damage.   If the button is damaged or is not functioning when pressed, seek service.
Check    if a Liquid Contact Indicator (LCI) is activated or there are signs of corrosion. Learn about LCIs and corrosion.
Connect the iPhone to the iPhone's USB power adapter and let it charge for at least ten minutes.
After at least 30 minutes, if:
The home screen appears: The iPhone should be working. Update to the latest version of iOS if necessary. Continue charging it until it is completely charged and you see this battery icon in the upper-right corner of the screen . Then unplug the phone from power. If it immediately turns off, seek service.
The low-battery image appears, even after the phone has charged for at least 20 minutes: See   "iPhone displays the low-battery image and is unresponsive" symptom in this article.
Something other than the Home screen or Low Battery image appears,   continue with this article for further troubleshooting steps.
If the iPhone did not turn on, reset it while connected to the iPhone USB power adapter.
If the display turns on, go to step 4.
If the display remains black, go to next step.
Connect the iPhone to a computer and open iTunes. If iTunes recognizes the iPhone and indicates that it is in recovery mode, attempt to restore the iPhone. If the iPhone doesn't appear in iTunes or if you have difficulties in restoring the iPhone, see this article for further assistance.
If restoring the iPhone resolved the issue, go to step 4. If restoring the iPhone did not solve the issue, seek service.

My iPad is acting funny after 6.1.3 update the only way I see fixing this issue to downgrade but I can't find anything on downgrading

My iPad is acting funny after 6.1.3 update the only way I see fixing this issue to downgrade but I can't find anything on downgrading

Try this - Reset the iPad by holding down on the Sleep and Home buttons at the same time for about 10-15 seconds until the Apple Logo appears - ignore the red slider - let go of the buttons. (This is equivalent to rebooting your computer.)

Photoshop CS2 issue after 0.4.6 update

I used software update to install the 10.4.6 update. was running 10.4.5 before that.
Photoshop now crashes after I save tifs/psds/dcs's. If i use save for web, it does not crash. The files that are saving when it crashes seem okay (good thing!) but it is annoying to have to keep opening, besides what internal damage this process is doing.
Anyone have a fix?
thanks,
brian

I am saving to a Appletalk-mounted volume.
When opening a file from said server, and saving to the desktop, it crashes, too.
When opening from the desktop and saving to the desktop, it does not crash. I guess I am being further forced from working off of the server : (
(I know that Adobe officially does NOT support saving over a network).
Thanks for your help

Fans acting up after 2010-01 security update

Hi there,
My MacPro (2,1) 8-core (16Gb) has it's fans acting up after the 2010-01 security update. This update came together with an update for Java. Being aware of the possibility that problems can rise when updating the two at the same time, I ran the security update first, then a restart, checked permissions, a restart and then the Java update and checked permissions again. However, now with only Safari or just the finder running the fans act up after a while. Even with the simplest tasks like opening a folder or dragging something or just running idle. It's not full blast but fast enough to be annoying.
I've done a SMC reset in conjunction with a 15min detachment of all cables, booted a few times in SafeMode, but no result. I hoped the 2010-02 security update would fix it but again no luck. Any ideas?

I've looked in the Activity Monitor (I hardly use it) and it gives me some strange data. Like Airport-BaseStation is running.
I don't have an Airport Base Station either, and Little Snitch is always asking if I want to allow it to phone home. So, mine must be running, at least sometimes, in the background also.
Sorry, don't have a real clue about this, but here's some other stuff to try.
First, see if this fan revving up happens in a new admin account and try a Safe Boot. Hold shift key down at startup chime. It will take some time to boot; let it go, it's doing some checking and repairing. The reboot into normal bootup will be slower than usual also.
if it were happening to me, I'd throw Applejack at it; must be from Single User, which BTW, is generally, a safer way to clear some caches. After it's installed, start up in Single User (CMD-S) and type in applejack and follow the on screen instructions for caches and pref files. Don't run anything out of order. If that doesn't do it, then you could try it in deep cache cleaning mode by typing in applejack AUTO.
You may not see the benefits until after several restarts, and since caches are made to speed things up, you may see some temporary slowness until these are rebuilt. If you run it in "Deep," you'll probably be asked to reauthorize some applications, which now think they're being opened for the first time.
Even if it doesn't help this time, it's a very useful tool to have on hand.

Photoshop CS2 buggy after OS upgrade

I recently upgraded to 10.5.6, and simple moves in photoshop are 'buggy'.
Undo, copy, paste, zoom won't work at times. Very frustrating. I've dumped the prefs and updated patches to Photoshop 10.0.1. Is this happening to anyone else? Any suggestions?

That's why Adobe does not support CS2 in Leopard. What you get is what you get.
CS2 is version 9

IPhone acting wierd after 1.1.3 update.

After the new software update, my iPhone screen stops responding randomly. It only happens while I'm on safari and the iPod. It only happens rarely on the iPod, but when on safari, it happens enough to be a nuisance. Is this a problem other people are having or is it my iPhone itself?

Have you tried the troubleshooting steps in the order I provided with my first post in this thread with the last being calling AppleCare or making an appointment at an Apple Store?
This is not normal except for getting slow to think from time to time with powering the iPhone off and on - which should be done with a GSM phone every few days or so regardless or a Reset which should take care of this aspect.
I power my iPhone off and on each morning before beginning the day and I usually do a Reset once a week or so just to keep things running smooth.

Cannot open itunes now I've downloaded the update - help please

I launched my itunes and had a message asking did I want to install the updated version. When it finished installing it said it needed to shutdown and restart - which I did. When I tried to reopen itunes from the shortcut it said it cannot open it coz some files are missing. Can anyone help please. I have contacted apple and although i've had my phone for over 90 days they have emailed me steps on how to uninstalled and reinstall safely. However, once I got the email, the first thing it tells me to do is to launch itunes which I can't do. can anyone help please? Many thanks.

Hi,
Try the following
First of all, see if you can uninstall your current version of HP Support Assistant by using the Microsoft 'Fixit' on the following link - this is particularly useful in correcting issues that may prevent reinstallation on machines running a 64bit OS.
http://support.microsoft.com/mats/Program_Install_and_Uninstall
If this completes, restart the PC.
Next download and install the latest version of HP Support Assistant from the page on the link below - the download links are towards the bottom of the page.
http://h18021.www1.hp.com/helpandsupport/hp-support-assistant.html
After the installation, restart the PC again.

Exchange 2013 Windows Updates Help Please!

Hello
My Setup:
Server01: Server 2012 Standard + Exchange 2013 Standard
Server02: Server 2012 Standard + Exchange 2013 Standard
DAG Enabled.
Well I'm wondering the best way to Install Windows Updates.
Which Server first? the Passive or Active node of Databases?
because after a Windows Update there are reboots required, what is the best practise when installing Windows Updates.
Thank You!

Hi,
There is no order in a DAG because there is no "active server" or "passive server", there is only servers that host either active or passive database copies. So when updating a DAG member you should make sure it is only hosting passive database copies at
the time.
Per my known, if the server need be restarted after installing certain Windows update, I suggest you run the maintenance scripts to avoid some unexpected situation.
Here is a related thread which can help you for your reference.

Hope this helps.

- Try another cable

- If still not successful that usually indicates a hardware problem and an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store is in order.
