Photoshop CS6 - 64 bit Optimus issue - SOLVED!

Photoshop CS6 64-bit will not run when Optimus is enabled on my W520 system The program works fine if I have discrete only set in the BIOS. Setting the default graphics adapter to NVIDIA GPU when using Optimus still has the problem. Anyone seen this issue before? CS6 Photoshop 32-bit runs OK under Optimus with the NVIDIA GPU set as default. I'm stumped so far. I searched the Adobe Support site and found nothing concerning this issue.
 Update_1: I initially installed the latest NVIDIA driver from the W520 Driver Matrix. The NVIDIA level downleveled from 296.88 to 296.20, but CS6 started working properly. I then downloaded the latest NVIDIA driver 301.42 which was the level recommended by several graphics sites. The system is working smoothly now. CS6 will now use the OpenGL and acceleration features of the 2000M. BTW, my WEI changed from 6.5 to 6.6 with this driver. The 3D graphics still remains at 6.9.
Update_2: I encountered yet another anomaly with the display driver. I placed the system into Discrete Graphics and updated the display driver to 301.42. When I set the system back to Optimus, the CS6 programs could no longer access the NVIDIA GPU. I had to reinstall the 301.42 drivers again in Optimus mode to have everything back to full function. I switched back to Discrete mode to check if things were still working (they were) and then I returned to Optimus mode and the programs continued to function properly. There must be a sequence that requires Discrete updates first, and them=n Optimus, but I've never seen it documented.
W520, i7-2820QM, BIOS 1.42, 1920x1080 FHD, 32 GB RAM, 2000M NVIDIA GPU, Samsung 850 Pro 1TB SSD, Crucial M550 mSata 512GB, WD 2TB USB 3.0, eSata Plextor PX-LB950UE BluRay
W520, i7-2760QM, BIOS 1.42 1920x1080 FHD, 32 GB RAM, 1000M NVIDIA GPU, Crucial M500 480GB mSata SSD, Hitachi 500GB HDD, WD 2TB USB 3.0
Solved!

  • Performance Issues with Photoshop CS6 64-Bit

    Hello -
    Issue at hand: over the course of the last few weeks, I have noticed significant issues with performance since the last update to PS CS6 via the Adobe Application Manager, ranging from unexpected shut downs to bringing my workstation to a crawl (literally, my cursor seems to crawl across my displays). I'm curious as to if anyone else is experiencing these issues, or if there is a solution I have not yet tried. Here is a list of actions that result in these performance issues - there are likely more that I have either not experienced due to my frustration, or have not documented as occuring multiple times:
    Opening files - results in hanging process, takes 3-10 seconds to resolve
    Pasting from clipboard - results in hanging process, takes 3-10 seconds to resolve
    Saving files - takes 3-10 seconds to open the dialog, another 3-10 seconds to return to normal window (saving a compressed PNG)
    Eyedropper tool - will either crash Photoshop to desktop, or take 5-15 seconds to load
    Attempting to navigate any menu - will either crash Photoshop to desktop, or take 5-15 seconds to load
    Attempts I've taken to resolve this matter, which have failed:
    Uninstalled all fonts that I have added since the last update (this was a pain in the ***, thank you Windows explorer for being glitchy)
    Uninstall application and reinstall application
    Use 32-bit edition
    Changing process priority to Above Normal
    Confirm process affinity to all available CPU cores
    Change configuration of Photoshop performance options

    This issue is costing me time I could be working every day, and I'm about ready to begin searching for alternatives and cancel my membership if I can't get this resolved.

  • Photoshop CS6 64-bit freeze

    Photoshop CS6 64-bit completely freezes whenever I try to open an existing .psd, or when trying to create a new file. I have to force close PS via the Task Manager. The 32-bit PS CS6 runs just fine. I've tried uninstalling, rebooting, re-installing, even re-downloading the whole beta to be sure it just wasn't a bad D/L in the first place. This is all in Windows 7 Home Premium 64-bit, Service Pack 1, running on an Intel Core i7 and AMD graphics (latest drivers for everything).

    Check your video driver:
    Determine what video card you have and go directly to the manufacturers website (nVidia or ATI/AMD) and download the latest driver. GPU and OpenGL support | Photoshop CS4, CS5: http://adobe.ly/OpenGL
    Another thing to try: Can you create a new Admin user account, and run Photoshop from the new user, do you still experience freezes?

  • I can't open Nikon D800.nef (raw) files in my Photoshop CS6 (64 bit), however, I can open .jpg files

    I just purchased and installed Photoshop CS6 (64 bit) to use with my Nikon D800.  However, I can't open the .nef (raw) files but the .jpg files from the same camera will open.  What do I need to do to open .nef files from the D800?

    Hello! By default, Photoshop CS6 cannot open the NEF from a D800, you need to have at least Camera Raw 7.1, as explained in this document: http://helpx.adobe.com/creative-suite/kb/camera-raw-plug-supported-cameras.html
    Go to the Help menu, and select "updates" and you'll launch the Adobe Updater that should suggest to install Camera Raw 7.2 that supports the D800, and many other cameras.

  • Photoshop CS6 64 bit not working on 64 bit Window 8 computer

    I am running on Window 8 (64 bit) but Photoshop CS6 extended 64 bit does not work.  Simply cannot open or create files and goes dead and I have to use task manager to stop it from running.  No problem with Illustrator 64 bit nor with Photoshop 32 bit.  I tried reinstall but still same problem.

    Try deleting the 64 bit prefs and see if that makes a difference. Start by closing the program and go to:
    C:\Program Files\Adobe\Adobe Photoshop CS6 (64 Bit)
    Hold down the three keys Ctrl+Alt+Shift (not Ctrl+Alt+Delete) and right-click on the Photoshop Application and choose open - see image - and release the three keys when you see the settings dialog. Click the Yes button and wait for CS6 to launch.

  • Photoshop CS6 32 Bit HDR crashes on MAC issue

    Photoshop keeps crashing every time I convert a 32 bit image to 8bit. I am using Photoshop CS6 v13.0.4 x64 on MAC OS X 10.6.8.  I goto Image>Mode>8bits/Channel.
    When the Merge HDR images Dialogue Box comes up I click "Merge".
    At the following window about HDR Toning it immediately crashes. (immediately as in, a second after I took this screen capture)
    When i click "Don't Merge" it works fine, so it has something to do with the HDR Toning editing capabilities.
    I have had problems before with CS6 working with 32 bit images on my Mac. I posted on the Adobe forum not to long ago about an issue with using content aware fill. It would render black within my selection. However it worked fine on Windows.  In addition some who relied who also used MAC OS X 10.6.8 did it an it worked fine, however, he was using Photoshop CS6 v13.0.1 x64, while I am using v13.0.4 x64.  So I think something broke in the later updates for PS CS6 for MAC.  If I were to reinstall Photoshop would that revert it to v13.0.1?

    A reinstall will give you 13.0 which you'll need to manually update to 13.0.1.

  • Will KillWhite run on Photoshop CS6 64-bit?

    So - now that I am in need of what looks like just the most perfect and amazing solution... am stymied about getting it to work with CS6 Photoshop Extended (64-bit) - what am I missing?
    When I run the filter (in CS6 64-bit), white isn't removed, instead the entire image gets all smeary as if the Oil Paint... filter had been applied.
    Attempts in getting KillWhite to run from other CS installations on this 64-bit machine; CS4 & CS5.5 both 32 and 64, have been even more frustrating requiring re-entry of serial numbers, EUAs, etc., only to have PS fail to run at all even with several computer restarts and much testing.
    Thanks for any help.

    What your missing is that when you install CS6 on a 64bit machine is that Adobe's default install process install two Photoshop CS6 programs and trees on your system. A 64 bit version and a 32 Bit version.  KillWhite plug-in is a 32bit plug-in that would need to be installed into the 32bit Photoshop CS6. Adobe changed where they want users to install plugin to folder C:\Program Files (x86)\Adobe\Adobe Photoshop CS6\Plug-ins and you would need to run CS6  32Bit to use it. See here

  • Saving Twain Settings (HP Scanning) w/Photoshop CS6 (32 bit)

    Just updated to Win 8.1 and the G3110 scanner. Running Photoshop CS6 in 32 bit mode so that I can import, through twain, directly into Photoshop. This is how my workflow was with Win 7 and an older scanner.
    The Twain software is "HP Scanning." Is there a way I can save settings or use the last used adjustments? Most of my scans are done in grayscale and I want them to be darker than the default. The auto adjustments still aren't enough, so I can't just enable those. The only thing I've been able to lock in is the default resolution. I'm used to more control over my scans and having the twain software default to the last used settings. Is there some way I can save settings that I'm unable to find?

    Since this has been buried a few pages back, I'm wondering if there's another twain software that will work if there isn't a way to save settings, etc... using HP Scanning?

  • Photoshop CS6 Tools and Cursor Issues with Mountain Lion

    Am using Photoshop CS6 on iMac 27inch with Mountain Lion. Experiencing inability to use the move tool to place one image on another after extraction. I place the move tool on the previously extracted image and drag it into an new image, but the extracted image does not get placed on the new image. Also, cursor disappears frequently when using Photoshop for extended periods of time.
    Anyone having similar problems?

    The cursor disappearing is a well known MacOS bug affecting all applications.
    Have you installed all the updates for CS6?
    And are you dragging from the layers palette, or from document to document?

  • Photoshop CS6 and OS Mavericks Issue

    I can't get photoshop cs6 to behave properly now that I've upgraded to OS Mavericks.  For that matter - I can't get InDesign or Illustrator CS6 to behave properly either.
    When I use the File Open, File Save, and File Save As commands I immediately get the pinwheel that spins without end.  It doesn't matter if I use a shortcut key or a the pull-down menu.  I never get to a dialogue box.  The pinwheel immediately appears after "Comm + O." 
    I've searched the forums and can't find a solution that works.
    I've tried the following:
    Removed all copies of CS5.1, CS5.5, and CS6.  Reinstalled all CS6 apps.
    Updated all CS6 apps to the latest version
    Verified that I'm running the latest approved Apple Java from Apple
    Updated my Wacom Drivers
    Performed a repair permissions through Disk Utility
    Unchecked "Displays have separate spaces" in Mission Control
    Rebooted several times
    Nothing has worked.  Any ideas?
    I'm nearly to the point of using Time Machine and ditching OS Mavericks.

  • Photoshop CS6 Show/Hide Polygons issue

    Hi. I am doing an assignment for class, using Photoshop CS6, and I am having problems with the show/hide polygons feature. After hiding the polygons of the unselected area, I am able to reveal the entire object by choosing "Reveal All". However, if I ever need to invert the other polygons, by choosing 'Invert Visible", and then want to reveal the entire object again, all it does is inverts it back the other way around. Is this a bug, or is this how it works?

    I apologize for the confusion. Let me try to start over, following the instructions you are asking to provide. The computer that has Photoshop installed is from school, so I will try the best I can giving you detailed specs. For what I know, It is a PC running Windows 7 64bit, but I do not know the amount of RAM as I do not have permission to access the control panel or any of its system settings. The version of Photoshop is CS6 13.0 Extended, and its performance preferences re the following...
    Available Ram: 34827MB
    IdealRange: 1884-2467MB
    Allow Photoshop to use: 2056MB
    HardDrive: 835GB
    as for the error, there is no error. I might of not been specific, but I am not stupid not to include the type of error if there was any...
    Other things like the grand total ram, video card, and video ram are all accessible by the administrator only.
    the file I am working on, is an imported 3ds Max file. I was trying to use Photoshop's 3D painting tool, and from what I understand, it is possible to hide polygons by selecting an area you would like to keep, and what is not selected gets hidden. This is supposed to be good for painting areas that are behind parts of the mesh that is in the way. From the instruction, you are suppose to select the area that you want to keep, and then choose 3d->Show/Hide Polygons->Within Selection. This part I was able to do. Once I was happy with what I needed to paint, I then selected 3d->Show/Hide Polygons-> invert. This allowed me to continue painting other hard areas of the mesh by revealing what was hidden and hides what is visible. Then, when I was ready to reveal the entire mesh back, I was thinking that I should be able to do this by clicking on 3d->Show/Hide Polygon->Reveal All. However, this only reverts the visibility back the other way around as if I clicked on revert.
    So what I was wondering is if this is how the 3d reveal all tool works or is this a bug?
    I hope this clear things up, if not, please let me know.
