Photoshop CS6 black UI

Anybody experiancing this?
I'm using:
MacBook Pro : 17-inch, Early 2008
Processor 2.5 GHz Intel Core 2 Duo
Memory 4 GB 667 MHz DDR2 SDRAM
Graphics NVIDIA GeForce 8600M GT 512 MB
Software OS X 10.8.2 (12C60) Mountain Lion
I installed CS6 2 days ago and Photoshop seems to be the only app affected.
Others are experiencing the same problen as well RE: this thread on Adobe Forum:
http://feedback.photoshop.com/photoshop_family/topics/photoshop_cs6_save_for_web _window_mostly_black_and_unreadable
I have used Mackeeper 2012 to uninstall all the old CS5.5 versons. So I have that in common with the others.
Adobe says to reinstall Mac OS. But that hasn't been a magic bullet.
After an extensive (2 hour chat) with Adobe I have done the following:
Updates to entire Creative Suite 6 via Adobe Application Manager
Updates to all Mac apps via System Preferences > Software Update
Restart Macbook Pro
After all that Adobe support tells me to update "something" having to do with the graphics card on my Mac.
I have consulted the NVDIA web site and they no longer support the NVIDIA GeForce 8600M GT 512 MB card that is installed in my Mac.
I'm stymied.
Any one else find any solutions out there?

Windows version of Photoshop has not been updated to support high resolution displays. Therefore Photoshop's users interface is around 1/9 the size it displays on low 100DPI displays then on 300DPI displays because of the pixels size difference. Low resolution pixels are 3 time wider and three time higher the high resolution pixels. So things with the same number of pixels are 9 time biger on low resolution displays. High resolution displays the same size of low resolution displays display 9 times the number of pixels the low resolution display has.

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.

Hi Sardini,
The GPU FAQ clearly talks that the GPU features cant work same as on the virtual drivers like the physcial machine which is why you see the redraw.
Feel free to read the link below which talks about the same.

May i know the right photoshop cs6 color settings to print black and white?

hi
in photoshop cs6 64bit under windows 7 sp1 64bit i got
gray Dot gain 15%
spot Dot gain 15%
i did a clean install of photoshop cs6 , i guess they are the dafault
may i know if they are the right settings ? i print with my printer and in a lab with an epson printer
thanks

Ask the lab but I'd be shocked if they asked you for a grayscale document, assuming this Epson is for output of photographic images
they work with psd files and jpg
(but the when i save a photo edited with for example an adjustament layer(black&white) photoshop convert it in a grayscale image ,isn't it?
but photoshop should warns about mismatch profile ,should it? or does it work only with color space
Dot gain would account for whatever dot gain you're aiming for on the press, so you'd have to ask.
Gamma would be used for output to an emissive display, so something like 2.2 to mimic sRGB behavior might be one option
. but may i ask a question?
because i guess i'm confused now
Gray and Spot settings are related only to convert from rgb to mode grayscale
or these settings influence what i see in the monitor when for example i add a black and white adjustament layer?
by the way gray and spot set both at dot gain 20% , are the dafault?
thanks

Does turning off »Use Graphics Processor« in the Performance Preferences and restarting Photoshop have any bearing on the issue?

Save options panel not displaying correctly on a mac - photoshop CS6

Hi
I am finding that when using photoshop cs6 on a mac and when saving files as png or web files - the options panel displays as black and you are unable to see any of the options.
how do you change this?
Thanks

And the version of the OS you are using is a secret why?
Boilerplate-text:
Does turning off »Use Graphics Processor« in the Performance Preferences and restarting Photoshop have any bearing on the issue?
Are Photoshop and OS fully updated?
As with all unexplainable Photoshop-problems you might try trashing the prefs (after making sure all customized presets like Actions, Patterns, Brushes etc. have been saved and making a note of the Preferences you’ve changed) by keeping command-alt-shift pressed on starting the program or starting from a new user-account.
System Maintenance (repairing permissions, purging PRAM, running cron-scripts, cleaning caches, etc.) might also be beneficial, Onyx has been recommended for such tasks.

Weeding out bad fonts never seems to be a bad idea, either. (Validate your fonts in Font Book and remove the bad ones.)

If 3rd party plug-ins are installed try disabling them to verify if one of those may be responsible for the problem.

How do I make Photoshop CS6 keyframe panning work with many clips?

Hello Photoshop experts:
I am having big troubles with applying keyframe controlled panning in Photoshop CS6. After reading chapter 10 of Photoshop CS6 CIAB, I added a simple cloud animation to my video. The original video/audio track is in Video Group 1. I pasted a simple JPEG graphic of a white cloud in to Video Group 2, without anything else in that group. Following the CIAB directions, I was easily able to make the cloud pan across the top of my video. Ah, this is easy I thought!
Then, I added a second cloud, this time it was black. I added this to Video Group 2, right after the white cloud. Here is where the troubles began..... I would highlight the image frame of the black cloud, move the playback head/cursor to the right end of the black cloud clip, then click on the "Position" clock to install a yellow diamond keyframe marker. At that instant, the selected clip of the black cloud would de-select, and the white cloud clip would select instead. As soon as the white clould was selected, then I couldn't click and drag the black cloud, as that frame was no longer selected. So, I would click the mouse back on the black cloud frame, and try and set the second key frame marker at the beginning of the black cloud frame for where I wanted the black cloud to sit at the start of the pan............ But then no motion would take place as I advanced the cursor across the frame.
So, I started a Video Group 3, and moved the black cloud into that. Then, without problems, I was able to use the key frame markers to control the panning of the black cloud across the frame,,,,,,,,,,, ah, this is easy! But then, I put in a red cloud onto Video Group 3, and guess what? It would not work, the same as before, it only wanted to jump to the black cloud clip as soon as I had set the first key frame marker on the pink cloud.
Note, underneath the first still image clip that I successfully automated the zoom function, there appears a violet shaded area under that clip, going from the starting key frame marker to the ending key frame marker. It seems as though this should be telling me something, as only the working automated panning sections have the light violet highlighting. But I can't move or eliminate that highlighting, or get it to associate with the clip I am trying to work with, after the first instance.
I have about 75 little clips I need to pan and zoom in on, and I am NOT going to make an individual Video Group for each clip! Something is wrong. I have spent about 5 hours banging my head on this today, and about 2 last night......
A) Maybe this is too confusing, but if someone can say what is wrong, I would appreciate any help.
B) Can you recommend an appropriate video (YouTube or other free source) that would shine light on this? The only videos show just one simple segment getting automated panning applied,,,,,,,,,,, my problem does not exist in that simple case.
Thanks, Chuck

FAQ: What is the Photoshop CS6 13.0.2 update? What is the 13.1 update?

What updates have been released?
Photoshop CS6 has two new updates: 13.0.2 and 13.1. The 13.0.2 update is available only for Mac users and updates the user interface to be Retina compatible. The 13.1 is for Creative Cloud subscribers and adds new features to Photoshop CS6.
How do I get the updates?
Simply go to Help > Updates to launch the Adobe Application Manager (AAM) to start the download process. You may already have an AAM notification to install these updates waiting in your task bar. You can also download and install the 13.0.2 update from here:
Photoshop 13.0.2 update for CS6
Don't see the updates in AAM? Make sure the Adobe Application Manager is updated to 6.2 or later.
Windows
Mac OS
Note: Using this update patch will install the latest version of AAM, which may be greater that 6.2.
Additionally,
Updates not available for Creative Cloud products
What is the availability of these updates?
The 13.0.2 update is available only for Mac OSX version 10.6 or later. The 13.1 update is only available to Creative Cloud subscribers (including Creative Cloud single-app membership, i.e. subscribing to Photoshop only), but it is for both Windows and Macintosh.
Some of the Photoshop CS6 System Requirements have changed in order to allow for the features in the 13.1 update.
Windows XP and Vista are no longer supported.
The video card VRAM requirements have gone up to 512 MB.
For more information, see:
New system requirements for Photoshop 13.1
Heads Up: Photoshop System Requirement Changes
Error: "Graphics hardware not officially supported" occurs in Photoshop 13.1 (Subscription Edition)
Do I need to install both updates?
No, the 13.1 update also includes the Retina display enhancements added with 13.0.2. So on the Mac platform, you will only be asked or are required to install the 13.1 update if you are a Creative Cloud subscriber.
What are the new features added for Creative Cloud subscribers in 13.1?
There have been many new features added to Photoshop CS6, including:
Smart Object support for Blur Gallery and Liquify — Enjoy the creative freedom to experience non-destructive editing with Blur Gallery and Liquify now that both features offer Smart Object support.
Conditional Actions — Speed up image processing by creating Conditional Actions. These commands use logic to automatically choose among different Actions based on rules that you establish.
Crop tool refinements — User-inspired enhancements to the Crop tool allow you to work smarter.
Copy CSS — Quickly export Cascading Style Sheet (CSS) markup for text and objects, potentially saving hours of work translating your Photoshop designs into web code.
Load color swatches from HTML or CSS — Import color swatches so that you can easily design incredible websites.
Improved Type Styles — Ensure consistent type formatting across multiple documents by defining shareable default styles, which are then available in any Photoshop document.
3D type enhancements* — Enhance 3D type with new GL preview and image-based lights (IBL) improvements.
For more information on these features, including demonstration videos, please see:
Release Notes Photoshop 13.1 update
Membership Exclusive Features
New Exclusive Photoshop Features for Creative Cloud Members!
New Photoshop Features and Team Version Headline Major Update to Adobe Creative Cloud
*Note: Photoshop CS6 single-app subscription is for the Standard version, which does not include 3D features and thus does not include these enhancements. Creative Cloud subscription comes with Photoshop CS6 Extended and includes the 3D enhancements.
I am not a Creative Cloud subscriber, why do I not the get the 13.1 update? Doesn't my full purchase also qualify me for free updates?
When you buy Photoshop CS6 outright, you are essentially buying a static product. You still qualify for minor, bug fixing releases like 13.0.1 and 13.0.2, but your purchase will not include any new features, as has always been the case in the past.
When you subscribe to Creative Cloud, you are not buying CS6, you are subscribing to whatever the latest version of Photoshop is. This means you are immediately entitled to any new features and upgrades as they become available. And this is only one of the many great reasons to be a Creative Cloud subscriber.

Why do my images appear smaller on my Retina enabled Mac after installing the 13.1/13.0.2 update?
Retina displays use a higher pixel density than a normal monitor. The individual display pixels are approximately one half the size of previous devices. While working in Photoshop before installing the 13.1/13.0.2 update, as with any other non-Retina optimized application, the number of pixels used is doubled to give a normal, non-miniaturized appearance. This can cause applications to be slightly blurred or pixilated. Thus, when viewing images in Photoshop, the zoom level is effectively double whatever is displayed. At 100% zoom, the image is displayed so that every one image pixel is shown with four display pixels, the same as viewing the image at 200%. With the 13.1/13.0.2 update, Photoshop now displays natively on Retina screens, meaning that image pixels now appear at the much smaller Retina size, thus reducing the amount of screen space they take up when viewed at 100%.

Known Issues
The following are known issues with the 13.1 and 13.0.2 updates but have been fixed in the 13.1.1 and 13.0.3 updates:
Program error opening files in 13.1 and 13.0.2
Photoshop 13.1/13.0.2 crashes opening EPS files
Photoshop crashes after updating to 13.1 or 13.0.2 on Retina display
For more information, see:
Photoshop 13.0.3/13.1.1 Updates Now Available
Why have icons disappeared?
Due to changes in the number of pixels involved in the UI, some icons can disappear. If the Photoshop Dock icon is now blank, rebooting the computer will refresh the system and load the new HiDPI icon. Some extensions do not have a Retina ready icon and thus will be blank when you have the panel minimized. In most cases like these, we may have to wait until the manufacturer also releases a HiDPI version of the Extension. Additionally, sub-menu headers may become blank when you view the contents of the sub-menu. For example, if you select Filter > Sharpen, while viewing the list of Sharpen, Sharpen Edges, Sharpen More, etc "Sharpen" itself will be blank.

You might want to wait. There are some bugs in it and Adobe is working on it. See threads posted in last few hours.
Well that might explain things more than I've garnered from the Forums. I've got a MacBook Pro with Mountain Lion and a Mac Pro with Lion, both with CS6 Design and Web Premium on them. The Mac Pro updates Photoshop to 13.0.3, the MacBook Pro is "stuck" at 13.0.1. It won't update via the "Help/Updates" or by downloading and trying to install manually. AAM gives an error when trying manually; says to contact support. Other CS6 apps, i.e. Illustrator, do not update on the MBPro either. I've uninstalled/reinstalled, deactivated/reactivated, etc., to no avail. If it means anything, I just deactivated the Illustrator app, quit it, restarted, and the splash screen (which shows the loading progress) showed "Try" on it - haven't noticed that before, and I have not installed any trial downloads. I'm at a loss as to why one installation of CS6 Design and Web Premium (physical/downoad) will update properly on one computer and not the other.
Am waiting to see if Adobe has an answer. The apps work, just don't update...

FAQ: What are the known issues so far in Photoshop CS6 Beta

APPLICATION COEXISTENCE
Lightroom 4 Beta + Photoshop CS6 beta -- Editing the same video file simultanously in both applications may result in an error, crash, or blank (transparent) frames. You might see this Photoshop error: "Could not complete the Render Video command because of a problem with Adobe Media Encoder".
This will only be an issue with Lightroom 4 beta and Photoshop CS6 beta on the same system, editing the same video. The released versions will not have this issue.
Workaround: Upgrade to LR Release version (even if it's just the trial), or don't open the same file in both apps at the same time.
CS5 Help fails to launch after install of CS6
Workaround: Launch the stand alone "Adobe Help" application or reinstall CS5
CROP
Crop action shows wrong crop box.Playing an action with a crop step that has dialogs turned on results in a crop box that covers the entire canvas instead of the expected area.
Workaround: Ensure that the Crop Tool is selected before running the action or disable dialogs for the action.
FILTERS
(32bit OS only) Initial "Merge to HDR Pro" image display and result is black until settings are changed
Workaround: It will remain black until droplist in the "mode" line is selected, changed and activated, then action appears to be normal.
Bokeh color is different from preview after render at certain zoom levels on particular image patterns
Workaround: View image at 100%
Lighting effects bump map generates artifacts if an alpha channel bump map is used. The resulting preview and final image is artifacted across the gradiated areas of the alpha channel.
Workaround: Do not use a gradiated alpha channel as a bump map
Liquify will perform the filter and save to just part of the photo if you click cancel while it is "finishing processing" a large file.
LAYERS
If a vector layer has a center-aligned stroke combined with an inside-aligned layer style stroke, then that vector layer's stroke may not display correctly -- part of the vector layer stroke will disappear as the layer is moved around the image.
Workaround: Use the "Path Selection Tool" to move your vector around -- alternatively, Change the stroke alignment or remove underlying layers.
Dragging a selection box while layer filters are applied stops marquee selection from following cursor movement
Workaround: Even though the graphic of the selection marquee stops, the selection still happens. OR Turn off layer filtering before targeting the layers using a selection box
TYPE
Editing text attributes in the Character panel when the layer is locked can result in a crash
Workaround: Unlock your text layer prior to attribute adjustments in the Character panel
Setting the menu type>font>preview size to "huge" after opening a saved file caused photoshop to crash
Workaround: Uncheck Background save in Photoshop CS6
Style by example or definition not working as expected:
If any attribute in the Paragraph Panel is set and you create a new Paragraph Style, the new style is based on the default and the override is not cleared.
DRAWING AND PAINTING
Paint is offset with Grip Pen- if you select the Soft Low Density Airbrush Preset with Grip Pen paint with swicth facing right with a high tilt towards you the cursor shows the spray should be going up, but it sprays down.
3-D
Creating a video timeline and rendering video from two 3D layers may not include ground plane reflections
Workaround: Use mesh for ground plane instead of 3D engines construct, or duplicate the file and remove the keyframes
Creating a New background texture after changing lighting presets results in crash
Workaround: Create the New background texture prior to adjusting lighting presets
Unable to create a constraint on extruded object with Pillow Inflate setting applied. Further actions may result in Photoshop instability or crash.
Photoshop may crash when trying to align/distribute constraints from selections of two 3-D extruded objects
Photoshop may not always save a texture when you paint directly onto the 3d object using Paint on Target Texture setting.
Photoshop may crash when selecting a different panel filter after the focus has been on 2 fields in the environment flyout with IBL map present
Photoshop may crash after embedding a 3D layer into a layer group, creating a new 3d object in the group, and then closing the document.
When changing the color of the lines or points in the 3D scene cross section from the Properties panel, side b color overwrites the color in side A.
Program Error when adjusting fill value in Layers panel while in Lighting Effects workspace.
Workaround:You will have to use opacity slider instead of fill slider to pull back the lighting effect
PLUGINS
DUPLICATE PLUGINS CAUSE ISSUES ON MAC:
If you install duplicate plugins or point the additional plugins folder preferences to a duplicate set of plugins (such as, to an older version of Photoshop), then it is possible for odd Photoshop behavior, such as an inappropriate file extension to appear when saving files.
(example: while performing a "save as" to JPEG file type, the file format appears to change to .dcm)
In this case, there may be a duplicate "file formats" plugin that's populating the Save As file types list with duplicates of the same options.
If there are duplicate file format plugins installed, the Mac OS will remove the duplicates from the list, but you may still see the odd saving behavior.
Solution:
Remove the duplicate plugins.
If you are not sure if you have this issue, but are seeing odd behavior, you can check for duplicates by looking through the plugins listed in the Help > System Info dialog.
Bridge
Unable to Copy and Paste in File info in Bridge
Workaround: Typing info in Manually works, or copy and paste work in Photoshop's File Info dialog
Install
Adobe Setup Utility may quit, or error during install. You may see error: "Exit Code: 15"
Workaround: Create a folder named 'Templates' at "<Windows drive>:\Users\<current user login id>\AppData\Roaming\Micorsoft\Windows\"
Message saying trial of PS CS6 beta expired,Content coming soon, stay tuned.
Workaround: re-launch photoshop CS6 beta. This issue should not happen anymore

1. You can get full support for your camera by upgrading to Lightroom 4. But personally, I would wait for Lightroom 5 since it will be released shortly, probably within the next month. Lightroom 5 will work with Photoshop CS5. The only difference is that Lightroom will need to create a TIF or PSD file that contains all the changes you have made in Lightroom. That's not a big deal, in my opinion. That file has to be created at some point anyway whenever you use Photoshop.
2. Yes, Lightroom 4 will pass images back and forth between it and Photoshop.
3. The upgrade would not break Lightroom 3. It would essentially work the same as it does with your current setup.
4. If you purchase CS6 it is my understanding you will be allowed to use it indefinitely. This is not true of the Creative Cloud version. Support and updating for additional cameras will cease for CS6. Adobe has announced that they will make Camera Raw 8.1 so that it can be usable with CS6 as far as reading Lightroom adjustments. But any new controls will not be accessible.
5. So far, Adobe has indicated that they have no plans to making Lightroom a subscription-only offering.
You are asking your questions as though you are addressing Adobe directly. This is a User-to-user forum. I don't work for nor do I speak for Adobe. I am only giving you the information as I understand it. It seems to me that upgrading to Photoshop CS6 and Lightroom 5 is a "safe" choice. None of us, not even Adobe, really knows what the future will bring. Technology changes so quickly anymore that everything we are doing right now could be obsolete in a matter of a very short period of time. As Adobe changes their marketing strategies I think it will probably motivate some people to look elsewhere. I have Photoshop CS6 and I'm going to upgrade to Lightroom 5. Then I will have to wait and see what develops after that. At any rate, I have tools that I can use for the foreseeable future. If I have to change at some point then I will do so.

Photoshop CS6 Will not open files\create new\function properly

Hello,
I have a licensed Photoshop CS6 installed on Windows 8.1 64bit.
This morning the software has started to have the following issue:
Photoshop will not create any new files (With the exclusion of spamming CTRL+N I have managed to open a new project)
Photoshop will not load an existing file through its panel of any format (double click on file yet nothing happens)
While trying to use any tool I have noticed that some of the clicks (Mouse or Keyboard) do not go through - some of them are being generated and some are not.
Sometimes Photoshop will not respond to clicks - if I drag a window other it forcing explorer to refresh the desktop the changes are being shown - otherwise Photoshop will remain stuck
After browsing the web for hours I have noticed a few people had similar issues as I have yet non of the steps which helped them to solve this issue have done any good to me.
I have taken the following steps:
Turned off "Use Graphic Processor"
Re-booted my computer
Re-installed Photoshop
Updated my graphic card's drivers
I have read another thread talking about some Nvidia cards which encounter issue with drivers yet I'm using an Radeon card - My PC spec:
Intel i7-3770 @ 3.4GHz
8GB RAM
ATI Radeon R7 200
Windows 8.1
I have made the following video which describes the issues: (The black screen is me popping ALT+CTRL+DEL)

Thank you in advance!

We've heard of a few examples of this - but they always seem to come down to other applications interfering with UI in Photoshop, malware, or needing to reinstall the OS.
There have only been a handful of reports, and we haven't been able to isolate the cause - but we know that it is something outside of Photoshop. Sometimes it works shortly after rebooting the system, but then fails until the system is rebooted again (very strong evidence that the cause is outside of Photoshop). A few people have reported that after reinstalling the OS, the problem went away.

Photoshop CS6 - problem displaying CMYK files in the project RGB

Hello!
I have a problem in 64 bit Photoshop CS6 - a new file (RGB, 72 dpi, no color profiles, mode 8-bit) images I put smart objects (images, CMYK, 300 dpi, 8-bit mode) wanting to build a small presentation for the web. These images in CMYK in some places have black spots pixelowe mainly in places where there is a gradient, or green. When you export a file to jpg's no black spots.
In other applications, this problem does not exist. Restarted the program recording it again but the problem has not gone away. Photoshop settings are standard.
I'm working on Win Pro 7, a very good computer.
What do I do? Help me: (

I am not entirely sure I understand you, but it sounds like it could be graphic card related... possibly at least. Could you post a screen-shot of how the problem looks?

I am running a TRIAL VERSION of Adobe Photoshop CS6 Extended and Bridge does not open. Help?

I am running a TRIAL VERSION of Adobe Photoshop CS6 Extended on MAC and Bridge does not open. It did open when I first downloaded it - but now a black question mark is over the BR icon and it does not open up. Any ideas from anyone?

Hi Steve -
I just thought it was interesting and helpful to me to learn that the icon for Bridge does not appear anywhere. Not in Application Folder. Not in the Finders Directory Files. I see your point - if I could locate that icon - I'd be set by dragging it onto my DOCK and launching it from there.
So - I'm assuming I need to uninstall CS6. Please list all the steps for me to uninstall so that I don't miss any CS6 files.
When I search in FINDER for CS6 uninstall- I see two icons - red adobe "UNINSTALL ADOBE PHOTOSHOP CS6" (both files are identical) Under KIND they both say Alias - with two different dates they were last opened (in November - few minutes apart). Is that what I use to uninstall completely all the files related to PS CS6 Extended as well as Bridge?
Do I need to DEACTIVATE ANYTHING ANYWHERE?
DOES ANYTHING NEED TO GO INTO TRASH.
I just want to make sure 'everything' related to CS6 Extended is off my computer and out of all the files. In the event i want to re-install - naturally I don't want to run into any conflicting 'issues'.
Do you think if I reinstall I will run into this same problem again (BR not launching)? Is there anything I can do to prevent it? I note on the forums - going a few years back - that there have been a lot of issues related to this same problem - even in other versions of the Creative Suite. Is Adobe doing anything to rectify this problem for us Photoshop CS Suite lovers or is all their focus just going into CC?
Thank you so much for trying to help me resolve this issue. It is very frustrating to have an Adobe product that is not completely functional. Especially when the Creative Suites are so expensive. I appreciate all the time you've put into this issue.

BRAND NEW PHOTOSHOP CS6 NOT SHOWING MY IMAGES

Hi everyone,
I'm in desperate need of some help. I just bought a brand new photoshop cs6 extended for Windows. I have successfully installed the software. It opens fine. As soon as I drag an imagr or open an image in photoshop, it shows up like you would see a transparent background. The only place you can see the image is in the history or layer panel. Has this happened to anyone else before? I hope the software isn't corrupted or faulty.

Refer to this:
I can’t see my images and only get a black screen (or strange pattern).
