Photoshop CC White Boxes

I've been running photoshop CC on my Macbook Pro 2.9 GHz Intel Core i7 with 8 gb 1600 MHz DR3 Ram for about 6 months and now when I try to edit my photos (usually opening about 30 at a time) after editing just a few then all the editing boxes turn white. For example, everything looks normal, but if I have to press any of the file menu buttons or try to change the pen size it all opens with a white box. Everything still works normal, but I can't tell which option I am choosing because they open as white boxes. What's the problem?
Thanks.

Its a common problem in MacOS 10.9 and adobe has released a temporary plugin which should fix it:

White box is an odd shape and size

When I open a new doc on Photoshop the white box to work in is narrow and short as you should be able to see in the above sceenshot, I'd like to know how to regain the usual shape and size of the workspace. Thanks!

I think this related to your setting when create a new file ( Width & Height and Background contents)

Creative Cloud App just showing blank white box! Cannot install Photoshop

I'm trying to install a Photoshop trial - have followed instructions to install the CC app. The icon appears on my desktop and a Creative Cloud folder appears in my Explorer folder but when I click on the CC app, all I see is a white box.
Occasionally, I have managed to get list of apps to show - but when I click on the "Try" button next to Photoshop, again it goes to a blank white box. Can't do anything! No spinning icon showing that something is loading - just blank white.
Very frustrating. Just want to download the trial so I can decide if I want to buy. Am on Windows 8 (64 bit). Have tried uninstalling and re-installing using a different browser (Firefox & Chrome) but still same result.
Please help!!
Thank you,

Hi again Jeff - I just read on a similar thread that another user had the same issue with blank CC app and realised the problem was her username having an ampersand "&"
I have an ampersand also in my username on the computer - do you think this might be affecting the issue?
She gave instructions for changing the username (although the link is for Win 7 and I'm using Win 8) - but I'm nervous about changing big system things like that. What happens to "permissions" on certain folders - am I likely to be locked out of making changes in certain folders?
Here is what she wrote on that thread:
If you have ampersand (&) or other non-alphabet characters in windows user folder name (Example: C:\Users\Bob & Mary), then Flash Builder will fail to install (happened to me), Creative Cloud will display white screen, and/or other miscellaneous problems.
I confirmed this to be true and works:
1) I had blank Creative Cloud window as shown in the first post.
2) I renamed the display username and window user folder name by doing the instructions here:
http://www.ghacks.net/2011/03/28/how-to-change-a-windows-account-name-and-user-profile-fol der-name/
(Example: Change from "Bob & Mary" to "Bob n Mary" - without the quotes)
3) After logging back in my newly renamed account, I opened Creative Cloud and login interface shows up! :-)
I would prefer not to do this if you have another suggestion? But just thought I'd mention this as well to see what you thought.
I have also since tried uninstally CC, deleting both the OOBE folder and the AAMUpdater folder, then re-installing CC again... same result. I always get to the list of Apps fine but the minute I click on the "Try" button next to Photoshop, the whole App window goes to a blank white screen and freezes.
Thank you.

White Box in Photoshop PDFs

When I import a Photoshop PDF into my indesign file, I get a white box in back of it. (I made sure when importing that the preserve transparency box is checked in the import dialog in InDesign.) The logo I am importing has one raster object inside of it and the rest is all vector. I tried deleting out the raster object and then re-importing into InDesign. The white box goes away when I do this. Is it not possible to have a raster object inside of a Photoshop PDF and still keep the transparency?
What did I wrong?

U must be using IN CS 2. You need to create an Alpha mask and apply it as a clipping.
OR
You have a Spot channel in your image. It will not work cuz its still not fixed - even in CS3 products.
Besides that, The Photoshop PDF file format has a confusing bug in it that allows you to save the document after creation but during edit - does not apply the changes so you think you saved the file, but you have not. Then it throws up a dialog telling you that you need to save the file in a different format because you can not save the file with all the features you are trying to do.
Compiled by the fact that you can't turn a Spot channel back into a Alpha channel just creates a cluster for you in the end to try and work around the problem.

When i open .jpg picture in photoshop on MAC the the background thumbnail in the layers panel looks like a white box with the brush inside instead of picture thumbnail. how to fix it?

Very easy. That means you have a "no layer thumbnails" option selected.
Go into the Layers Panel menu at the upper right of the Panel, choose Panel Options and you will see Thumbnail sizes to choose from.
Select one, click OK.

InDesign CS3 "White Box" when printing with linked Photoshop EPS files

This problem has been covered before, but never really resolved:
Robert Levine, "InDesign CS3 Erratic White Box Phenomenon with Placed Photoshop EPS files" #1, 1 Apr 2008 11:05 am
Now, I'm aware that we should no longer be using EPS files. I wholeheartedly agree. But until we can convince the department to change to another format (namely PSD or TIFF) for our vast library of images, I need a workaround.
It seems that setting the clipping path for each linked image to "Photoshop Clipping Path" resolves this issue. So I tried writing an AppleScript that would find each linked Photoshop EPS and set it's clipping path to "Photoshop clipping path", but it didn't work for me (my expertise with AppleScript is basically nil.)
Can anyone assist with the creation of this script? Or does anyone have a better suggestion for solving or working around the Photoshop EPS erratic white box printing problem?
Thanks!

>Why??????????
Because they've got zillions of EPS and have no time to resave them all and because it
b should
work even if Buko doesn't like EPS...
(Your vendetta against EPS takes on strange proportions. Were you bitten as a child by a rabid EPS and have sworn to wipe them out? Must be an interesting story behind it ;) )
Brian, this script seems to do the job with one very important caveat: I see no way of finding out which path is active in the EPS (in case that more than one). So the script simply activates the first in the list.
tell application "Adobe InDesign CS3"
set aDoc to active document
set allLinks to links of aDoc
repeat with n from 1 to (count allLinks)
set aLink to item n of allLinks
if link type of aLink is "EPS" then
   set anEPS to parent of aLink
   tell clipping path of anEPS
    set ePaths to photoshop path names
    if (count ePaths) > 0 then
     set clipping type to photoshop path
     set applied path name to item 1 of ePaths
    end if
   end tell
end if
end repeat
end tell

RAW files from my Fujifilm X-Pro1 open with a blank white box

I'm using an iMac running OS X (ver. 10.9.3) and the newest version of PhotoShop CC and have checked to see that the most recent updates are current. In working with RAW files from my Fujifilm X-Pro1 I am able to bring up a RAW (RAF) image from Bridge into the RAW application and make the changes I want. When I try to bring the image from the RAW dialog screen into PhotoShop however, I get only a blank white box. The image does not appear. Any suggestions?

Sorry, I can provide no solution but maybe you should also try
Adobe Camera Raw
Otherwise general trouble-shooting routines might be worth a try:

Help! When in "graphic watermark" setting, how do I remove white box around my watermark? Already saved in PNG

I'm trying to upload a saved graphic watermark to my photos in Lightroom 4 but no matter what I do, I can't get the white box around the watermark to go away. I've already tried saving the watermark file in PNG like other sites suggested but it does no good. Other sites tell me I need to save the watermark in another version of adobe and check the box "transparent" but Lightroom is the only version of adobe I have. Any help ASAP would be greatly appreciated!!!

I have also been trying to solve the same problem. Where does one take an already created watermark and make it transparent? I have Photoshop on my old Mac and e-mailed my solid white background watermark to myself, opened it in Photoshop and "erased" the white background. Transfered it back to my Lightroom on my MacBookPro and exported the test photo w/ the "erased" background watermark. I had no idea if it would work….it did not. OR : How does one create a transparent watermark? I have a graphic I want to use w/ my name. Please HELP!!!

White boxes around images

Hi, I know this is a basic question but it's causing me a lot
of grief.
When I place images on coloured backgrounds, they have white
boxes
around them. Is the only way to get around this to manipulate
the
image itself in photoshop? I've tried this but it still
doesn't look
right - there are jagged edges. Or I've tried giving the
image the
same colour background in photoshop so it blends, but there
is a white
edge. How do others handle this? Some expert advice would
really be
great to have.

If you are seeing white borders against colored backgrounds,
then this means
that the white is part of the image. There would be no way to
remove that
short of editing the image in your image editing program.

White box around text in pdf

Hi. In InDesign CS3, Photoshop 7.0 & of course Acrobat 7.0
I made a Photoshop PDF & brought it into InDesign to export it into a PDF so I can make crop marks.
The PDF in Acrobat & InDesign both had a white box around some of the text. I had embedded the fonts in Photoshop, so I do not understand why that happened. I went back into Photoshop & just retyped over where the box was appearing & this had solved the problem after I repdfed & imported it into ID. Acrobat viewed the text perfect then.
I want to prevent this from happening in the future, does anyone know what I can do to look out for things like this?

Very sorry--that's certainly information I should have included. I have Adobe Acrobat 9 Standard, version 9.3.3. I'm creating the PDFs from within Microsoft Word 2007 via the Acrobat tab on the ribbon, clicking "Create PDF."

How do I get rid of faint white boxes around images?

Some files that I have printed have faint white boxes around images. The images were saved in photoshop with transparent backgrounds that seem to be showing up faintly in the final printed image. Does anyone know how I can get rid of this problem?

signspec,
What happens if you print from Illy?
Your printer (driver) may be overly helpful and performs a bit of colour management all by itself. You may have a look and disable any such management in the printer (driver) options.

White box around image in my transparent .swf file

I created a .swf file for a header of a website using a logo that tweens in. I tested the .swf with the transparent properties and it works but the logo I imported from photoshop has a white box around it, how can I remove this? Do I need to import a transparent .png file instead of a .jpg?
Thanks!

.png's are lossless vector graphics, so it's probably best bet if your going to do other things with the logo. .jpg's are not fond of resizing. You can also break the image apart and use the lasso tool and magic wand the background away.

White box effect in documents with transparency

how do i get rid of the white box effect when placing images from photoshop whith transparent backgrounds?

Save it as a TIFF or PSD with transparency ticked.
If you are going to include things like text layers, vector masks, or vector shapes in photoshop - best to save as a PDF with photoshop editing capabilities.
But pure raster documents, TIFF or PSD is preferred.

When I open a photo in CS6 from Adobe Bridge, a large white box appears. How do I fix this?

When I open a photo in CS6 from Adobe Bridge, a large white box appears. How do I fix this?

Good day!
Could you please post a screenshot to illustrate the issue?
Does turning off »Use Graphics Processor« in the Performance Preferences and restarting Photoshop have any bearing on the issue?
