Photoshop CS5.1 on 15" Macbook Pro (File opening/Application Frame problem)
I have seemed to narrow the problem to my preferences file but cannot figure out why.
I installed a clean, fresh version on my Mac. (No previous versions were ever installed).
When I open Photoshop for the first time, everything runs fine: I can open files and edit as usual.
As soon as I close it and re-open many things happen:
a) I can go to open a file, but with Window>Application Frame unchecked, I cannot see the open file.
b) All other palletes go awry. I cannot change the open palletes and or edit anything.
c) If I check Window>Application Frame, everything is back to normal. No problems here.
So, what is going on? Anyone else having this problem?
I get this same issue with PS CS5.1 a recently purchased 15" Macbook Pro
In PS5.1 use File/Open to open an image file but image doesn't appear (histogram and other properies dialogs show the right info, though),
switching to Application Frame mode makes the photo appear,
trying to switch back out of App Frame mode locks PS5 up (ie nothing displays & have to Quit and restart via the Dock icon).
For me this issue only happens when my secondary display in NOT connected. If the 2nd display is hooked up everything shows up normally. Doesn't seem to matter about the power profile (ie running on battery or not) and not affected by various background apps, devices hooked up (eg backup drive, USB mouse. All Mac & CS5.5 software updates have been applied to date.

I have been trying to figure out how to transfer Photoshop CS5 from my Macbook Pro to the my iMac. The Macbook Pro was running Mountain Lion until I updated a few days ago to Maverick. The iMac is sill running Mountain Lion because when I went to update to Maverick it let me know that I would not be able to run Photoshop CS3. Under normal conditions I would not be concerned, but I don't have the Photoshop CS5 disk anymore to install it, so hence my problem.
I tried backing up to time machine and that did not work, I tried a transfer using firewire and it transfer the problem but then when I try to open it on the iMac it is looking for the serial number.
I would appreicate any help on resolving this.Hi landonw
The HD will probably have to be removed from the MacBook Pro and connected to a USB adapter or placed in a dock to get your data off of it. I would take the MacBook Pro along, the folks at the Apple Store should be more than happy to help transfer your data to a new iMac.
{quote:}All I am really concerned about is my iTunes database and my firefox profiles.{quote}
What no BACKUP'
To protect your data in the future, pickup a USB External HD +(for under a $100)+ and use Time Machine.

I need to connect my Nikon D3x directly to my MacBook Pro. So that once I take a picture, that photo will show up instantly in Photoshop CS5 in my MacBook Pro. Is it possible?
You should ask in the Photoshop CS5 forum.

Reinstalling photoshop cs5 on new MacBook pro OS 10.10.1
Hello,
I recently updated my photo editing computer to a new MacBook Pro running OS X 10.10.1. Reinstalled photoshop CS5 and submitted product code. Photoshop will open and run, but certain commands, specifically print commands or print parameter changes causes the program to quit. I have looked on several forums and followed advice re: reloading photoshop among others, but cannot get anything to change.
Question 1: is there anything in the que for updates to CS5 to make it compatible with the latest OS X update?
Question 2: why isnt there an option on adobes site to submit a question to tech support? Every other software manufacturer I deal with leaves you with the ability to submit a question to their support staff.
Any help would be appreciated in getting my software to run correctly again.
thanks,
JustinIt is not likely that older versions of software will be updated as technology advances. That is part of the reason why they develop new versions of software.
Adobe tech support is focused on their new products and generally do not support issues with older software versions - it's unfortunate, but that is how they manage their support. These forums are their second line of support, where they send people with older version issues, and a number of Adobe employees do support this and other forums. If you have a question and ask it here you might get a helpful reply... or you might get a useless one like this might seem to be. -
Problems with selection marquee in Photoshop CS5.5 on MacBook Pro with Hi-Res Display
A few months ago i bought a 15" MacBook Pro with the hi-res display (not retina display...just the higher res display offered prior to the release of the retina display).
I'm having trouble with Photoshop and selection marquees. In particular, anytime I make a selection while viewing the image at 100% zoom level (so, actual pixels), the "marching ants" selection marquee I draw always shifts over a few pixels after I draw it.
So I'll make a precise rectangular marquee around an object, and it will look right, until I release the button on my mouse. The moment I release the mouse button, the marquee shifts over a few pixels in both directions (vertically and horizontally).
This has never happened on any version of Photoshop or on any Mac I've ever used before (and I've been using Photoshop for a LONG time on LOTS of different Macs), so I can only assume it has something to do with the Hi-Res display. This same version of Photoshop works just fine on my previous MacBook Pro laptop. But after installing it on the new MacBook, immediately - and consistently, every time - it happens.
If I zoom in and use the tool, it doesn't have the problem. It seems to only occur when viewing at 100% (which is usually for me), but it does do it EVERY TIME I use the rectangular marque tool.
It's driving me a little bit batty.
Anyone else?An update...I had thought to try changing the Open GL settings, but it didn't seem to make any difference. However, I hadn't realized that you need to restart Photoshop for changes made to the Open GL preferences to take effect, so I wasn't actually changing anything.
Turns out, it's an Open GL drawing issue - and disabling it fixes the problem.
Of course, you also lose all of the other enhancements that come from enabling Open GL drawing.
I'm only leaving this discussion up in case anyone else with the same problem stumbles across the issue. -
Using Adobe Photoshop CS5 Extended with MacBook Pro Retina
I intend to buy the new MacBook Pro with retina display. Does anyone know if I will be able to use Photoshop CS5 Extended with it? I could upgrade to CS6 but it seems an unnecessary cost given that I am still quite happy with CS5.
CS5 does not offer Retina quality display - in fact, it looks awful. The current version of CS6 was updated to work with Retina display models (you'll need to check with Adobe to see what the current version of CS6 is... I know they haven't 'abandoned' it, but I subscribe to CC so I'm on CC 2014).
Good luck,

Why does MacBook Pro quit open applications, rather than sleep with Cinema Screen connected?
With my Apple Cinema Screen connected, my MacBook Pro has recently started getting into a muddle with the sleep command.
The problem is apparent when awaking from sleep mode. Sometimes, only some of the open apps have been quit (Safari, Calendar, Word etc). At other times, all the open apps and the whole user account has been closed. On those occasions, re-opening the user account becomes a lengthy process, often requiring the user's name and password to be entered twice, (with two different non standrad wallpaper backgrounds) before restoring everything to the condition prevailing before sleep was invoked.
Interestingly, the MacBook Pro works perfectly if used without the Cinema Screen attached. It fires up and sleeps and reawakes with everything in tact, as it should.
Disconnecting the cinema screenwhile the MacBook Pro is asleep creates the above scenario upon awakening.
Similarly, if the MacBook Pro has been used without the cinema screen, is put to sleep and while asleep, the cinema screen connected, the above symptoms plaque the re-awakening process as described above.
I think but am not 100% sure, that these probelms after the recent Mountian Lion update was applied (OS X 10.8.3).
Genius Bar folk (Harlequin Centre - Watford) have not heard of the issue.
Can anyone help please?
Thank you in anticipation of a solution from a bright spark somewhere!The next time you have the problem, note the exact time: hour, minute, second.
If you have more than one user account, these instructions must be carried out as an administrator.
Launch the Console application in any of the following ways:
☞ Enter the first few letters of its name into a Spotlight search. Select it in the results (it should be at the top.)
☞ In the Finder, select Go ▹ Utilities from the menu bar, or press the key combination shift-command-U. The application is in the folder that opens.
☞ Open LaunchPad. Click Utilities, then Console in the icon grid.
Make sure the title of the Console window is All Messages. If it isn't, select All Messages from the SYSTEM LOG QUERIES menu on the left. If you don't see that menu, select

I installed indesign CS5 on new macbook pro and keeps freezing with spinning wheel once the app opens. Is there an issue with OS Mav or font issue or a plist I can pull. All other Adobe products work.
Migration should never be done with any Adobe program.
If you have done Migration, you have to UNINSTALL first (if even possible) and then download Adobe Creative Cloud Cleaner Tool and run that also. When this is done, restart your computer and install the programs from an original Adobe Installer.
Other question is, if your OS is supporting that version. You can try it, it is not officially supported, but it might work.
But CC will work, upgrade to CC2014 (without additional cost), use that as it is better anyway. -
Can I use a software of Adobe for creating CD covers having installed Adobe CS5 on my MacBook Pro?
Can I use a software of Adobe for creating CD covers having installed Adobe CS5 on my MacBook Pro?
If I go to a copy shop to print the covers (double-sided for a slim case of DVD) it would make sense to have two covers on one page in A4 and they should be on the right place so that the two backsides of the covers are at the back of the front of the covers printing the page in A4 double sided.
Is this possible to do that if I choose the right size of the covers and save the picture (in jpeg or better as pdf file)?

For large amounts of text Photoshop is not the best choice.
But you can certainly create Type Layers – select the Type Tool (T) and create Point Text by clicking onto the Canvas or Paragraph Text by click-dragging on the Canvas.

Need help installing Photoshop CS6 trial on MacBook Pro
I keep trying to install the trial version of Photoshop CS6 on my macbook pro (version 10.6.8) and I was able to download it fine from the download assistant. Once I tried installing it, however I kept coming up with the same error. First it says that the images couldn't be opened because of an invalid checksum, then if I opt to skip that step it comes up with a window letting me install it which I do but once it hits 44% it jumps to 99% and says installation failed due to an inauthentic certificate, saying "Adobe Genuine Software Verification Failure."
How do I fix this???Sounds like your download got corrupted. You can try downloading it again.

Not able to install photoshop elements 11 on MacBook Pro OS 10.7.4
spent last two days downloading photoshop elements 11 onto MacBook Pro OS 10.7.4 multiple times with no luck opening and installing
popup reads: no default application specified to open the document PhotoshopElements _11_LS15-2.7z
other download reads as text only and says must open with Windows 32 - the rest is garbled encrypted and illegible
i am ready to get my money back and forget about this unless someone has an answer soon!Yes, it's the Windows version. Download the correct Mac version, which by all means could be the trial even...

Useing a PC
Have Photoshop CS5
Suddenly cannot move Raw Files from Bridge (or anywhere else) into photoshop.
I Can move Jpegs into ps the only issue is with Raw files
I did get error1 message but as do not know what that means its no help
any suggestions?Sorry for the late reply. My email firewall has become a little over zealous & sent a lot of my emails straight to my junk email folder, so I have only just now discovered your reply in my junk mail folder.
The only "don't open files exceeding xxx megabytes" instruction I can find in my Prefs, is in the Bridge Prefs for Thumbnails, & mine is set at 1000mb. The biggest files I handle are bigger than 200mb so I should be able to open a few, not just one.
However, this doesn't explain why I can open a psd format file of 180mb, close it, but then can't open a RAW format file of only 26mb immediately after.
I can open the RAW file only if I restart my computer - very annoying!
However, thanks for the advice about the video card & memory.
So, I'm still stuck as to what the issue is. -
I have Photoshop CC in my Laptop. When I first load it/execute photoshop, File -> Open it takes approx 30 seconds to return a selection. If I do another File -> Open after this it is instant.
If I Quit Photoshop and reload it the first File -> Open takes another 30 seconds and then instant. It is only the first Occurrence.
I have a Samsung 840 EVO 250GB SSD 4GB RAM.
If I do start -> Photoshop -> Previously used file it loads no problem.
If I try the same things with Photoshop CS5 no problem.
Why?
Forgot to add that I am running windows 7 x64 if that makes a difference.
I have found the problem. I disconnected the internet from my laptop and it worked instantly. So Adobe you need to improve your response times on this facet of the login as it is a pain.
Now I will stop looking for problems with my system....
Please advise if there is a work around...
Thanks
RonLooking at my dbus messages above, the following section from pacman.log looks very suspicious:
$ grep disk /var/log/pacman.log
[2010-03-26 22:57] installed devicekit-disks (009-5)
[2010-03-26 22:57] installed gnome-disk-utility (2.28.1-1)
[2010-04-01 07:52] removed devicekit-disks (009-5)
[2010-04-01 07:52] installed udisks (1.0.0-2)
[2010-04-01 07:53] upgraded gnome-disk-utility (2.28.1-1 -> 2.30.1-1)
[2010-04-10 11:07] upgraded udisks (1.0.0-2 -> 1.0.1-1)
No time currently to check if downgrading these helps. Also looks kinda complicated because udisks replaces devicekit-disks.
This also looks somehow related: http://groups.google.com/group/linux.de … 0f49cd9b53
Edit:
OK, the symptoms can be replicated with the following command sequence:
sudo /etc/rc.d/dbus restart
udisks --dump # <-- this takes forever.. 24 seconds on my system
udisks --dump # <-- any subsequent calls finish instantly, 0.043 seconds on my system

I bought a second hand G4 iBook with iLife 09 on it. I have copied iLife to my new Macbook Pro. The applications would not open, so I did a software update and update all three applications, but they will still not open. Can anyone help?
The seller should have given you the original disk so that you can reinstall as needed. But it likely was a single-user license (which really means single computer) so you can only have a copy on one computer at a time. If the seller didn't give you the disk he is probably still using the software on his new Mac. Your best option to get any of the iWork apps to use in OS X 10.6.6 or later is through the Mac App Store. You can then install them on any Mac you have that has access to the Mac App Store using your Apple ID.
