Photoshop CS3 is not working with my Intuos suddenly!!! Pen goes in crazy lines instead of behaving?!

I am so frustrated tonight. My BRAND NEW Wacom Intuos tablet worked fine the last time I tried it, a couple months ago. I am running a Mac OSX with Parallels and Windows 7, which I run Photoshop CS3 on. It was doing fine but now suddenly I try it tonight and it goes crazy when I'm trying to paint with the brush--sensitivity is gone, it's just a thick line; more importantly, it won't behave!! The pen keeps spazzing and doing these retarded straight lines instead of going where I want it to go!!! It works perfectly fine outside of Photoshop, both on the Windows AND Mac side, so obviously this is a Photoshop problem. I've installed the latest Wacom Intuos driver for Win7 and it won't work. I've tried having Photoshop open first and then plugging in the tablet and I've tried plugging in the tablet first and then opening Photoshop. still no good.
Does anyone have any suggestions??

You installed the latest driver from here?

Also, resetting the photoshop cs3 preferences could help.
Press and hold the Shift+Ctrl+Alt (Shift+Cmd+Option) keys just after starting the launch of photoshop cs3.
Keep holding the keys down until you get a dialog asking if you want to delete the adobe photoshop settings file
Press Yes because you do.

  • Adobe Photoshop CS5 is not working with Lion.

    Adobe Photoshop CS5 is not working with Lion. It is totally non responsive to a point where i cannot work. all other CS5 programs seem to be running well so far. any advice? if no, then how do i revert back to Snow leopard?

    I had real problems with all Adobe apps - it said I needed to install a version of Jave Runtime, but kept saying that I wasn't connected to the internet to complete the action. This was not the case - I was connected to the internet.
    I followed this link : http://support.apple.com/kb/DL1421  to install a version of Java and all Adobe apps fire up now. Haven't done much testing within the apps, but at least I'm further ahead than I was.
    So thanks to the message boards for helping me out.

  • Photoshop CS2 will not work with RAW images in the Minolta DimAge A2.  It use to work fine

    I have used Photoshop CS 2 with my DimAge A2 for over 5 years in the RAW format.  Now it will not work with RAW with my camera.  I am using Vista 64.Any answers ?  Thanks

    It would seem to me that you have probably had to reinstall Photoshop CS 2.  If that is the case, then you should download and install Camera Raw 3.7.  The version that was on your install disk was updated several times.  And one of those updates probably included support for your camera.  Install ACR 3.7 and see if that helps.

  • Photoshop 7 DOES NOT WORK with Leopard ( OS 10.5 )

    If you are not prepared to upgrade your Photoshop 7, DO NOT UPGRADE TO LEOPARD.
    Photoshop 7 and OS 10.5.x (Leopard) are not compatible. When Adobe released Photoshop 7 in 2001 as a Universal Binary for OS9 and OSX they had no idea that Apple would be switching to an Intel chip in 2006. As the release of Leopard is also the end of the Classic environment, this may be the reason Photoshop 7 does not work in Leopard.
    As of the release of CS4, Photoshop 7 can no longer be used as a path to upgrade Photoshop. A full version has to be bought now. But Photoshop CS or later can still be used as an upgrade to Photoshop CS4.
    It is recommended that Photoshop 7 owners still looking to save money on upgrades stay away from eBay, as, unfortunately, much of the software listed is pirated or misrepresented and you will still not be able to upgrade to CS4.

  • Photoshop CS3 does not work Instantly then fails to close properly

    ok so the main problem is that lately ive been working on a wallpaper for my site and just recently the program has been acting up. the best way to describe it is normally the marquis tool when you pick an area the line showing the border of the marquis moves kind of like an animation right? well in my case it works normally for a little then a little later(1-2minutes) the marquis stops moving. at the point that this occurs i can no longer see the marquis but can still move it with the move tool. i can see the marquis if im using the marquis tool and switch to another tool then click on the image area. also when i try to show/hide a layer at this point when i click the eye it goes away but you can not see the physical changes until i click somewhere in the image. now once this "problem" occurs and i try to exit photoshop the file will close, but photoshop itself will not, then i get an error message saying its not responding and i have to manually shut it down via task manager/ rightclick-close multiple times. i have normally been able to run windows media player, my antivirus download updates, and sometime other programs on top WHILE running photoshop cs3 extended and it normally doesnt have any problems.
    now the file size i am working on is a psd amounting to almost 8mb. and it seems that high files like that seem to give it trouble so i thought maybe the ram access was a problem but i allowed the program under preferences 1.6gbs of physical memory to itself and it didnt change anything. also on the file i was using i was using alot of gradient filler layers to get my effect if that helps. i thought maybe something was wrong with photoshop itself as i have come into contact with viruses occasionally and somehow i had managed to get the frmwrk32 trojan that just recently was discovered but i fixed all those problems so after uninstalling and reinstalling photoshop it did not fix the problem.if its possible a key or something got deleted i can work towards that as well.
    for now small files like jpegs under 1mb seem to load and i can work on them vigorously but i have yet to fully try out the memory method. i can provide the exact files i was working on in psd psb or any format necessary to help with this process.

  • I can't get Photoshop cs3 extended to work with Mavericks? Ideas?

    I currently have photoshop cs3 and just upgraded to Mavericks on my Mac. No I cannot use cs3. Is there anything I can do to get cs3 to respond?

    Found this on Canon's site about Lion problems which doesn't sound too promising. It says they hope it's fixed by 4th quarter 2011 but that's past now.
    We need to inform you that, due to certain incompatibilities between Mac OS X Lion (10.7) and our previously released Mac OS X 10.6 Printer and Fax drivers, you may not be able to print and an error log file will be generated that could potentially fill up the hard drive of your Macintosh computer. The following drivers are not compatible with Mac OS X Lion (10.7) and may cause the above issue when used with the affected products listed below Mac UFR II LT Printer Driver Version 2.00-2.02 Canon PS Printer Driver for Macintosh Version 2.00-3.30 Canon FAX Driver for Macintosh Version 2.00-3.40 We offer our sincerest apologies to customers who have been inconvenienced by this problem. Phenomenon When using the above listed incompatible drivers, if a print job is submitted from the TextEdit or Preview application in Mac OS X Lion (10.7), the print job may fail and an error log will be generated.

  • Photoshop Element 7 not working with Babylon 8

    I recently added Babylon 8 to my software.  I use it a lot as well as Elements 7 in my work.  Element 7 worked fine when I had Babylon 7 but when I upgraded to Babylon 8 Photoshop Element 7 stopped working.  Any ideas as to why and how to fix?

    You seem to have done most of the recommended troubleshooting procedures with FCP 7.
    All I can suggest is that you create a new User Account in System Preferences and try to install it under that.
    As you know, FCP 7 is now 4 years old (prehistoric in computer years) and was discontinued two years ago when Apple stopped supporting it, so there is little wonder that problems are arising with the latest OS, which can only get worse as the OS is updated.
    The alternatives are to move to something like Premiere Pro, if you  prefer a traditional interface/workflow or get Final Cut Pro X if you want to have cutting edge 21st. century technology supported by Apple.

  • Edit in Photoshop CS 5 not working with 6.4.1

    I recently updated to 6.4.1.  When I try to do an "Edit in Adobe Photoshop CS5..." on a file, CS5 starts up but the file never appears. My platform is Windows XP SP 3.  Camera Raw Plug-in in CS5 is 6.4.1.145. This happens for RAW files as well as TIF/JPEGs.  With other than raw, I get the proper dialog box, from Lightroom, but the file never appears in CS5. "Open as Smart Object in Photoshop"  also fails. Help!

    Mike,
    Sometimes, starting Photoshop first and leaving it running in the background can help.
    Also, you can try renaming (or moving aside) your preferences file: C:Documents and Settings/[username]/Application Data/Adobe/Lightroom/Preferences/Lightroom 3 Preferences.agprefs. If that works, you'll need to re-establish your preferences, but it's a small price to pay.

  • Why does Photoshop Elements 6 not work with Apple OSX version 10.9?

    I have recently updated my MacBook Pro and my Mac desk top to OSx version 10.9 and now Photoshop elements 6 does not respond.  It opens and then stays frozen.  Nothing responds.  Does anyone have any suggestions for how to fix this issue?

    Specifically, this:
    http://forums.adobe.com/message/5860819
    But it is also very important to delete any existing preferences after a major OS X upgrade. For PSE 6 that would be:
    com.adobe.Photoshop.Elements.plist
    Adobe Photoshop Elements 6 paths
    Adobe Photoshop Elements 6 settings
    They're in your username>library>preferences. Here's how to find it in 10.9:

  • Adobe Photoshop Elements 12 does not work with Yosemite 10.10

    My Adobe Photoshop Elements 12 does not work with Yosemite 10.10 nor does my Premier Elements 12. When I try to start them up I get the error message. After uninstalling and reinstalling a few times its still the same. Strangely enough PSE 11 seem to work with Yosemite.  I uninstalled my Premier Elements as well and it behave the same way. How do I get a new copy of Premier Elements 12 to reinstall?

    Just to further test what is happening to my iMac on Yosemite is I downloaded the trial version of Photoshop CC and when I go to launch it it gives mr the same error message as when I try to launch PES 12 or Premier Elements 12. So whatever the problem is it involves all three and so upgrading to Photoshop CC doesn't even help.  Could there be an Adobe file damaged or missing somewhere that is common to these and yet does not effect Revel and Lightroom?

  • [js] CS Scripting not working with CS3

    Hello,
    We had a JavaScript made for us that enabled the user to exchange certain text within a document.
    This script works fine with CS (Ver.3.0.1) but gives a JavaScript Error - #55, Error String: Object does not support the property or method 'findPreferences' with CS3 (Ver.5.0)
    I have tried 'tinkering' around with the scripting - but I have zero experience with JavaScript and have not found a solution.
    Additionally the people that wrote the initial script are not available.
    I have bought several books but they all seem like alien-language to me
    Below is the section of origional CS scripting.
    Can anyone point out to me WHY this script does not work with CS3?
    And WHERE I should start looking - changing?
    Thanks in advance for your help and guidence.
    Lee
    // Exchange the text
    function actProjectData(oneDoc, oneResult){
    app.findPreferences = null; app.changePreferences = null;
    oneDoc.search(undefined, true, true, oneResult[0],{appliedCharacterStyle:oneDoc.characterStyles.item(myProjectTitleCharStyleNa me)}, undefined);
    oneDoc.search(undefined, true, true, oneResult[1],{appliedCharacterStyle:oneDoc.characterStyles.item(myOfferNoCharStyleName)}, undefined);
    oneDoc.search(undefined, true, true, oneResult[2],{appliedCharacterStyle:oneDoc.characterStyles.item(myOfferDateCharStyleName) }, undefined);
    app.findPreferences = null; app.changePreferences = null;

    > Come to think of it, maybe it's easier to create a folder "Version 4.0 Scripts" under your scripts folder and place your CS script in there. Maybe that will do the trick. Should have thought of that earlier.
    Tried this, but it didn't seem to do anything... But certainly a 'try' worth.
    Currently playing around with the:
    > app.findTextPreferences.findWhat = "a";
    app.changeTextPreferences.changeTo = "b";
    oneDoc.changeText();
    I've got to the point where I have no error messages :-) Now I'm really flying.....
    Fact is - not all text and also the wrong text is replaced!!!
    I'm currently playing with the script to try and replace
    all texts with a given paragraph style with the entered text...
    Not proving to be simple for me, but I'm learning rather a lot!
    Now that doesn't sound very clear when I go back and read it!
    What I want to say is:
    Each page of the document has the project name, No & Date on it (each having their own paragraph style)
    so
    With this script it asks you the Project name, No. and Date and then goes
    through the whole document and replaces all instants of those texts with specific paragraph styles with the newly 'entered' text.
    Proving to be a little mountain for me - Thought it would only be a hill!
