Photoshop CS3 Tablet problems

Hi.
I have a Laptop (HP PAVILION DV6000, Dual-core at 2 ghz with 2 ghz of ram) and Windows Vista Home Premium Pre-Installed. The thing is...i get myself a digital tablet NGS CADBOY ULTRA, it has 1024 pressing levels. Windows Vista has its own drivers for tablets (Tablet PC) but with those, Photoshop doesn´t recognise the pressure (it makes the same size making a lighter pressure than in a stronger one), When I download the NGS CADBOY ULTRA drivers for windows vista, it installs a program for pressure recognisement, but Photoshop stills making the same size, even with the brush properties marked as "By pressure control" and, as an added problem, my computer takes minutes to shut down when i install those ngs drivers, but not once, every time i turn off the computer, it takes too long, if i haven´t got those drivers installed, the computer turns off at a normal speed .What can i do?

I purchased a Wacom tablet (I think it's the Graphire) and I'm having the same problem. After installing the Wacom software, Windows XP lists it as a "Pen Tablet" but Photoshop doesn't recognize any pressure input.
I checked and the "TabletServicePen" service from Wacom is enabled, so I don't know why the pressure sensitivity isn't working. Anyone else have this issue?

  • Photoshop CS3 Installation Problems

    A customer has purchased Photoshop CS3 & is having problems installing on Vista Business
    If I logon to the Users PC as Administrator & install it there, what steps will I need to take to access it from the Users account
    Thanks

    Well, who told you it was for a Mac? If you bought it at a retail store, you should be able to take it back there and exchange it for a Mac copy. If you bought it used, you should demand a refund from whoever you bought it from.
    Of course, that is all assuming it's actually a Windows copy, and there's not something else going on... What does it say on the CD? My Photoshop Elements CD is very clearly labeled "Macintosh."

  • Photoshop CS3 Cursor Problem

    Hello,
    I have been playing around with my College's copy of Photoshop CS3 and have stumbled across a bit of a problem. It seems that I have managed to lock my Photoshop file from all editing as I am unable to use any tool apart from the Hand Tool.
    I haven't got a clue how to fit it.
    Any Ideas
    Thanks in Advance.
    Josh

    Thank you for that.
    I will have a go at restarting my PC and various other combinations of open programs to see what works.
    Thanks

  • Photoshop Cs3 saving problem

    Good Day!
    I've just installed Adobe photoshop Cs3 Extended and everytime i save my work, it crashes. The window is still there yet i can't click on anything even the menu bar. And the worst part of it is that it didn't save my work.
    It also doesn't close so i have to restart my computer again.
    I've already reinstalled Cs3 twice but it still crashes like that.
    Please help me solve this problem, thank you.

    Monette,
    The Save dialog probably appears off-screen. Did you change monitor setup lately?
    Can you Esc out of it?
    Either reset the preferences (forum FAQ) or change the monitor settings to the highest possible pixel dimensions, bringing the dialog into view, then move the dialog to the top left of the screen, save something, and go back to the usual screen properties.

  • Photoshop CS3 activation problems

    Does anyone know how to activate Photoshop CS3 on win8.1, everything i try fails, i have internet, the activate over the phone say it know longer supports activation and tells me to go to a website that is not available. HELP!

    You may need to find Adobe's phone number on the web site, starting with clicking the red icon at the top of this page.
    Chances are you'll need to run Photoshop CS3 As Administrator, at least to get started.
    Photoshop CS3 can activate just fine on Windows 8.1.  I have a copy installed and running.

  • Photoshop CS3 Trial Problems

    I downloaded Photoshop CS3, although whenever I try to run the setup it says:
    Adobe Photoshop cannot be installed because it conflicts with:
    - Adobe Photoshop CS3
    I tried searching around to see if I had photoshop laying around on my computer and I couldn't find anything..I searched in all my docouments, on my desktop and even my computer, and the adobe folder in c:/program files/adobe.
    I'm not sure what it means, and I don't think I have photoshop on my computer anyways, can anyone help?

    Try the Adobe clean-up script from their site.

  • 10.5.3 Seems to have solved Photoshop CS3/Spaces problem

    I've just backed up and installed the 10.5.3 update. The only remaining problem with PS CS3 and Leopard was using Spaces and finding out that the Palettes, Tool Bar and Options Bar would frequently not redraw, depending on how you used Spaces. Twenty minutes worth of testing and that issue seems to have been resolved. The update for my Mac Pro was 420mb and required one OKed and two automatic restarts. It's a bit of a process.
    So far so good!

    Hi Everyone!
    I too have this bug on my Mac Pro at work and my iMac at home. I use Spaces religiously so this bug is extremely annoying.
    I went ahead and reported this bug to Adobe. I suggest that everyone else do the same.
    I haven't been able to fix the blinking cursor without restarting Photoshop but here are some ways to avoid it:
    1. Switch spaces using CTRL + Arrow Keys / Number of Space instead viewing all of the spaces in a grid.
    2. If you are like me and prefer the grid you can avoid the blinking cursor by making sure the Type tool or Marquee tool is NOT selected in Photoshop before you switch Spaces. If you have another tool such as the Move tool selected when you switch Spaces you will not get the blinking cursor when you switch to the Type or Marquee tools after returning from another Space.
    Let's hope Adobe gets this fixed ASAP.

  • Photoshop CS3 printing problem

    Hello all,
    One of my client is having problems printing Contact sheets on his color printer.
    Here is the scenario;
    User opens CS3
    File - Automated - Contact Sheet II
    Browse to folder where pictures are and selects folder
    Contact sheets get created
    At this point, the user must select each sheet one by one and change his printer selection to the color printer because each sheet defaults to his  B&W laser printer
         Collegue uses Photoshop CS and only needs to change printer selection for the first Contact Sheet then switches to the other sheets and presses CTRL-P to print them.  If my client does this, the second sheet up to the last sheet would print blank!
    Is there a reason why CS3 forces you to change printers for every sheet?
    Is there a fix for this?
    My client is quadriplegic but has 20% upper body movement.  The less manual modifications the better for him.
    I know that he can change his default printer to the color before creating the Contact Sheets then change it back but he wanted to see if there was a fix to the problem first.
    Thanks in advanced.

    Two things:
    - Printer settings are "system settings" in the far and wide sense. If the user does not have sufficient privileges, he may not be allowed to change such settings persistently. This might affect sequential printing like in the Contact Sheet automation, where each file is sent separately to the printer.
    - The printer driver overrides specific settings. This could e.g. be things like "print first page in a different format", automatic paper selection and a few others. Some of that could even hinge on you choosing a unsuitable paper size and layout in the first place which makes the print engine try to make "smart" decisions about these things. Carefully look through the drivers and take out conflicting settings. also, if your printer allows to store custom settings profiles, maybe use a factory preset instead.
    If that doesn't work, you can often install the same printer multiple times with different settings by tying it to a different virtual port or using a different driver, like e.g. one time a winPrint driver and the other a PostScript Driver. This will entail some additional manual work, of course, but might solve the problem.

  • Photoshop 2014 Tablet Problems

    Running Windows 8.1 up to date.
    Photoshop 2014,
    I'm using a cheaper tablet(which may be my undoing)
    it's a Penpower Monet.
    Ran fine with the version of PS right before the June update. 
    Still works as far as hot keys and basic strokes go but it will not recognize pen pressure.
    When I try to enable control by pen pressure in brush settings I get the warning triangle ! and a generic mouse over that says to use pen pressure I have to have a pressure sensitive tablet.

    Did you search ???? Re: Photoshop cc 2014 incompatible with Wacom ?

  • Big big photoshop cs3 crash problems!

    When I load up Photoshop I get "Licensing for this product has stopped" I followed the steps that Adobe provided on their support center. I have tried uninstalling and reinstalling photoshop - no good :(
    It worked yesterday but suddenly I got a message "send a crash report"
    Can anybody help?

    Nope. It stayed a demo, I just wasn't happy with the crappy way it worked but still wanted to stay in touch with the new functions so I worked on CS1 and played with CS2 for 18 months, then when CS3 fixed most of the crap I bought the update and carried on.
    I just checked, it was CS1 I did it with. I have PS 2.5, 3, 4, 5, 5.5, 6, 7 (no version 8 upgrade) 9 and 10.

  • Photoshop CS3 reinstall problem

    I had installed cs3 on a secondary harddrive than went bad. When I
    try to reinstall it's trying to repair the exsisting version that I guess some files were installed on my primary harddrive. It gives me the message of:
    any help?

    A Google Search turns up a lot of people recommending 3rd party uninstallers.  I haven't used any of those and can't recommend one.
    Adobe themselves have a variety of removal aids...  Many look like they were for beta versions, but it's possible they could help you.  This turns up a lot of possibilties:

  • Little Problem with Photoshop CS3

    Hi, I have a little problem with Photoshop CS3, I'm not sure if this's because a Windows option that I messed up, but the thing is that I didn't touch any options, or some kind of preferences.
    I'm talking about the "little windows" (I don't know the correct name) that come from, in this case, the Filter and Analysis options, they're coming down from their right side, and usually, the come down from their left side. This is really annoying.
    Not big deal, but I can't really work properly. I hope you guys can help me, and this's my first post, I hope I didn't break any rule.

    Thanks Mylenium, that was the problem, I don't even have a tablet, but that fixed my problem =)
    Thanks again.

  • Adobe Photoshop CS3 - Problem with Trial

    I recently downloaded and installed Adobe Photoshop CS3 directly from Adobe as it is the latest version my Mac supports. Upon start up, I am greeted with two options: a) I have a serial number for this product. and b) I want to try Adobe Photoshop CS3 free for 30 days. Seeing how I am simply looking to evaluate and have not purchased said product, I selected option b.
    However, upon clicking "Next >" I am greeted by an error. "Problem with Trial" I am left with nothing but wasted time. This is the first time I have ever installed Adobe Photoshop CS3 so I do not understand why it will only allow access with a serial number. Any help to allow me to try this software is appreciated.
    Thanks.

    Could the trial have a time bomb in it that prevents use after several years? There's not much of a need for Adobe to allow trials to run for so long after the product's life cycle has concluded.

  • Adobe Photoshop CS3 has stopped working: A problem caused the program to stop working correctly.

    I recently purchased a new desktop computer and installed Adobe CS3 Master Edition on it and I get the following error:
    Adobe Photoshop CS3 has stopped working: A problem caused the program to stop working correctly. Windows will close the program and notify you if a solution is available.
    Out of the entire suite of tools only Photoshop will not launch. The weird thing is i also had the same Adobe programs installed on my laptop and I have not made any installation updates to that machine and i am getting the same error. I have always installed the same software on my two home machines with no problem until now. Any help is appreciated.
    Thanks,
    Andy

    You'll probably going to have to uninstall, then re-install the application; but you need to provide a lot more information;
    BOILERPLATE TEXT:
    Note that this is boilerplate text.
    If you give complete and detailed information about your setup and the issue at hand,
    such as your platform (Mac or Win),
    exact versions of your OS, of Photoshop (not just "CS6", but something like CS6v.13.0.6) and of Bridge,
    your settings in Photoshop > Preference > Performance
    the type of file you were working on,
    machine specs, such as total installed RAM, scratch file HDs, total available HD space, video card specs, including total VRAM installed,
    what troubleshooting steps you have taken so far,
    what error message(s) you receive,
    if having issues opening raw files also the exact camera make and model that generated them,
    if you're having printing issues, indicate the exact make and model of your printer, paper size, image dimensions in pixels (so many pixels wide by so many pixels high). if going through a RIP, specify that too.
    etc.,
    someone may be able to help you (not necessarily this poster).
    a screen shot of your settings or of the image could be very helpful too.
