Update your video card drivers from the GPU maker's website.

  • Photoshop CS6 background canvas flickers during use.

    I bought Adobe creative suit 6 design standard yesterday. when using photoshop, the background canvas flickers and becomes transparent when i do things (zoom, erase, brush)
    I have followed the solution of changing the drawing mode to Basic, but it is still an issue and is making photoshop unusable.
    any help?

    Are you on Windows 8, by any chance?  Win8 has some known problems with it's video card drivers, and we're still waiting for all the updates to be released.  We are continuing to work with Microsoft and the GPU vendors to get this fixed.
    If changing the mode to Basic doesn't work - you may want to turn the GPU off entirely in Photoshop preferences until the updates are available.

  • Photoshop CS6 - Screen flickering when using brushes with new MacAir 2013

    Would the Adobe team please respond to the issues reported by several users:
    http://forums.adobe.com/message/5449199
    A number of users experience severe screen flicker in Photoshop CS6 when using any of the larger brush type tools (cloning, eraser, brush, spot healing, burning, and dodging).  As many on this thread are experiencing, it is awfull and unusable! The flicker is screen wide black boxes, sometimes the whole screen goes black.  It only seems to happen when we put the cursor over the image to edit.
    Hardware:  MacBook Air 13", Haswell 1.7 GHz, 8GB, 512 SSD Software:
    Photoshop CS6 v13.1.2 20130105.r.224, OS X v10.8.4 (and perhaps others)
    Looks like a CS6 is not compatible with teh new MacAir. Please look into this and advise.
    Adobe Photoshop Version: 13.1.2 (13.1.2 20130105.r.224 2013/01/05:23:00:00) x64 Operating System: Mac OS 10.8.4 System architecture: Intel CPU Family:6, Model:69, Stepping:1 with MMX, SSE Integer, SSE FP, SSE2, SSE3, SSE4.1, SSE4.2, HyperThreading

    An update:
    I went to the Apple store and brought myself a more recent MacBook Air (13", 4/256 FYI, they were out of the 8/512 model).    I can't reproduce *exactly* what you're showing, but got the flicker to happen by resizing the cursor.    Also, while painting, the screen seems to stop updating except for the cursor -- not only is Photoshop unable to draw, but other applications stop drawing as well.  And a few times it hasn't even updated the cursor (while all other apps seem frozen).  That's not normal.
    When I see the flickering, I frequently see the menubar and other UI elements draw at the wrong location on the LCD, then black, then redraw in the correct location -- repeat in different positions and lots of "static" until I stop changing the cursor.  That's more evidence of a hardware or and odd driver issue.  The odd thing is: it doesn't happen all the time.  It's possible that the one we have at the office also shows the problem, but we didn't test long enough.
    I'm trying to reach out to my hardware contacts at Apple - but it's a weekend before a holiday, so we may not make progress immediately.
    One thing that would be useful here: the model of MacBook Air that you have that shows (or doesn't show) the problem. 

  • Photoshop CS6: Screen flickers black when using brush tool on MBP 2013

    I'm experiencing a flickering black box whenever using large brush sizes on Photoshop CS6 using a Macbook Pro (16GB RAM, 2.8 GHz i7, Intel Iris, Late 2013 13") similar to what is shown on: black flickering boxes on Vimeo.  The issue stops if you: Preferences -> Performance -> Uncheck "Use Graphics Processor" and restart the program or backrev to CS6 13.0.0 (or anything before 13.0.4). 
    I've attempted uninstalling/reinstalling CS6, resetting NVRAM and SMC, and verified the system is all up-to-date.  When booting in Safe Mode the issue is also resolved (as it appears Graphics Processor is disabled).  There appears to have been a similar issue on the 2013 Macbook Air that Apple released a fix for (MacBook Air (Mid 2013) Software Update 1.0) but I do not see anything regarding the Macbook Pro line.  Anyone experience/resolve this issue?
    I've contacted Apple Care multiple times and they say it is an Adobe issue.  And Adobe is insisting is a CPU/GPU driver issue just like the Macbook Air issue Apple already fixed.

    You may be able to get a display driver update from the laptop manufacturer.
    Unfortunately, if none of the workarounds is circumventing the problem for you, and there are no display driver updates that solve the problem, you may want to escalate it to the laptop maker.  They in turn can push through a new display driver update.  They should take responsibility for making your system work with modern, professional software.

  • Photoshop CS6 Options Bar Issue - OSX

    Hello,
    I am using Photoshop cs6 on my Mac and I hm having trouble with the options bar in the way. When I open two or more windows within Photoshop the options bar is covering up the X's that allows me to close them out and the tabs themselves. I have attached an image to show the problem. I have tried to move the option bar, but it seems that Photoshop wont allow me to do this. I was just wondering if anyone else had this issue or knows how to fix it.
    Thanks,
    Han

    It looks like the tool options bar isn't docked below the menu bar.
    You should be able to drag the tool opions bar by the tab on the left side up until you see a blue line and let go to dock the tool options bar.
    below is from a windows machine, but as far as i know it should work on a mac as well.

  • Photoshop CS6 keeps flickering!

    Hi,
    I have recently fired up Photoshop CS6, I've not owned it for that long, it was purchased with the intention to upload some design work to my website.
    This is the issue that I'm encountering, brushes in Photoshop CS6 make my screen flicker in the rectangular area across the entire screen from the cursors present position to the bottom of the screen.
    I have switched my graphic card off and then back on, I have also altered the resolution of the screen to the next highest possible setting, this provides short-term relief. With any luck this isn't a hardware issue, but a drivers/software one.
    I'm currently using an Apple MacBook Pro - Core i5 2.53 GHz - 4 GB Ram
    Any ideas?
    Thanks,
    Jenny

    If the crash started right after you added RAM, it could be a bad Ram dimm. You can try this - change the amount of RAM in Photoshop to 4G, this should stop Photoshop from using the higher ram. If it doesn't crash, it's probably the ram. Or run a diagnostic app. You don't say when it crashes, what you're doing when it crashes - it there a pattern? Did it ever work on this computer? Did it work on your previous computer? Without a lot of data, it could be related to the new computer... What OS version? Did you recently update it? Have you updated Photoshop to the most recent update?
    Do you have any plug-ins loaded? Try restarting Photoshop, and immediately press & hold the shfit key to turn off plug-ins.

  • Photoshop CS6 printing size issue

    I'm having a strange issue. Just upgraded to CS 6 and was able to print with no issues for a few weeks.
    Yesterday I tried to print a file I had printed the day prior with no issus, to find that the document size appearing in the print dialogue box was VERY large. My document size is 11x17 with a resolution of 300, and the print box shows it as a tiny image in the middle of a page 77.264 in x 49.986 in.
    If I try to print this scale, nothing shows up on my printer. If I fit to scale and try to print the document size, it's printing huge (400% larger)
    My print settings are correct, thought maybe it was a driver issue but I'm having the same issue on another printer I use, so it seems to be coming from Photoshop. I trashed my preferences on startup, but the issue remains. I can't figure out what's going on. Here's a screen shot
    Additional info: Other documents having the same issue in Photoshop CS6 when trying to print.
    Document prints fine in CS5 and Illustrator CS6.

  • Adobe Photoshop CS6 100% Zoom Issue

    Adobe Photoshop CS6 Version 13.0.6 x64
    OS X Yosemite Version 10.10
    100% Zoom is very tiny on my screen. How do I fix?

    An Images dpi setting has nothing to do with it.  Its all about the number of pixels you have.    Image for the web have fewer pixels.  It does not matter it you set the image DPI resolution is 72, 300 or any other value when you don't resample the number of pixels remain the same.  When you display actual pixels 100% zoom an image with 10K pixels with a 300dpi is the same 10K pixel image with a 72dpi resolution setting.  Printers will use the images dpi setting to adjust pixel size.  Displays do not they are run at their native DPI resolution whatever that is.  So a 10K pixel image with a 72DPI setting and a 10K pixels image with a 300DPI setting will be displayed as a 10K pixel image at the displays dpi resolution.
    DPI defines Pixel size pixel density  300DPI means 90000 square pixels per inch  so the pixel size would be 1/300" x 1/300".  72DPI means 5184 pixels per square inch so pixel size is 1/72" x 1/72"
    So if you have an image with 7200px x 7200px and set the dpi tp 72DPI and print it will print 100" x 100" do know of a printer the cal handle 100" paper
    So if you have an image with 7200px x 7200px and set the dpi tp 300DPI and print it will print 24" x 24" you need a large form printer that can handle 24" wide paper
    This image can not be displayed on a display zoomed to 100% only part of the image will fit you will need to scroll about the image. Unless you have a 34" display with a square aspect ratio with a 300DPI native resolution that I don't know about.

  • Adobe Photoshop CS6 weird hangup issues with paintbrush

    Hello All,
    I've been an extremely happy user of Photoshop CS6 x64 on my windows machine since it was released. None of the existing bugs had any effect on me and i was happy as a clam.
    Until about two weeks ago. Some update was released and i downloaded and installed it.
    Now suddenly, when i'm retouching photographs, using masks and the paintbrush to fill, the mouse hangs. Often. Just gets stuck in position and i have to wait for a second or two to get it back.Also happens with the clone stamp. It's like a delay has been added to the controls. No other way to explain it.
    No other hardware of software changes on my machine at all. Just the Photoshop Update. I'm running version 13.0.1 on x64 windows. Have plenty of ram and plenty of CPU.
    Anyone else experiencing this, with the latest update in particular? The paint brush, clone tool and healing brush controls used to be much more responsive.

    i mean creating a layer mask and painting it back in with the paintbrush.
    Yes that is normal.  I have no problem with CS6, No lag or hesitation.
    A tip for you if your creating the mask using a copy of a color channel. Set the brush blending mode to "Overlay" This will protect the mask Black and White areas. You will only be able yo paint in gray areas of the mask.   When areas turn 0,0,0 Black or 255,255,255 White they become protected too. Use a Wacom tablet soft brush low opacity and many strokes

  • Photoshop CS6 Liquify cursor issue...

    Hi everyone,
    recently I've upgrade to Photoshop CS6.
    All works great, but Liquify filter. Well, filter works great (new mercury engine is awesome!) but something happened to cursor.
    Look screenshot below.
    Using PS CS5 I have not problem checking "Use GPU" option in Preferences panel; and with it checked PS CS6 works great, except Liquify cursor. If I uncheck this option, Liquify cursor looks normal.
    Could anyone knows how to fix it?
    Thanks in advance.
    iMac 27"
    Mac OS X 10.6.8
    ATI Radeon HD 5670
    BTW I've updated to 13.0.1 and nothing change.

  • Photoshop CS6 - undo shortcut issues

    I am using Photoshop CS6 on Mac OSX 10.10. When I attempt to use the undo shortcut (Command Z), it only sometimes works. If it doesn't work, I have to manually go to Edit - Undo. Is there a fix for this?

    Just troubleshoot your system.  The problem is on your end.
    If you updated or upgraded to the foul Yosemite 10.10 after Photoshop CS6 was installed, Yosemite damaged Photoshop.  The remedy is to uninstall CS6 and re-install it, then update it to Photoshop CS6 version 13.0.6.
    Of course, it could be a faulty keyboard or who knows what else.

  • Photoshop CS6 path curve issue

    Prior to Photoshop CS6, a curve on a path could be moved using the Direct Selection Tool without altering the path beyond the two enclosing points. If you manipulated the curve, only the inside handles of the two points (that create the curve) would change - and only in length - as shown below:
    Unfortunately, in Photoshop CS6, if you manipulate the path curve with the Direct Selection Tool, the handles both sides of the points move freely - affecting the path beyond those points:
    - Please, is there a way to revert to the prior behaviour? The Photoshop CS6 behaviour may seem more intuitive (or something), but it's less precise and alter parts of the path that are fine already.

    Thank-you very much for this!
    I only ever use the Direct Selection Tool by holding down command whilst using Pen Tool - and Pen Tool itself does not show that option! Solved - thanks.
