Photoshop CS6 extremely slow with Mac OSX 10.9.5

Can someone please help me? I had CS5 no issues. But ever since I got CS6, Photoshop just doesn't work right. Doing the simplest thing completely bogs it down. I have been struggling with this for a year and am at my wits end. Please help.

This problem could arise if you have installed Kies. What it does is, it installs drivers which is not compatible with android file transfer app.
Now the solution for this problem is properly uninstall kids from your mac, to do this follow the steps:
1. Check the security and privacy settings in your system preference whether the settings for "Allow apps download from" to "Anywhere" (to set this first click the lock button on the left of your screen by entering your password, this will enable the option to be changed)
2. After you are done with the first step open the kies installation file (file that is used to install kies, if you have deleted the file, download it again) open the file there you will find an option "uninstall". Click and follow the instruction.
3. When you have successfully deleted the app, restart your mac.
4. Install Android file transfer app if you haven't done it yet.
5. Connect your android device
6. BANG! It will work just fine. Hope it helps!!

Why is Photoshop CS6 extremely slow with the brush tool using Wacom pen?

Could my wacom tablet be the issue? The psd processor spins not stop until I pick up the wacom mouse and click on an adjacent layer then back to the layer I was working on. Then the wacom pen work with the brush tool. This seems to happen when every time I pick up the pen and go back to the brush tool.

First, sorry it took so long to reply. Have been a bit swamped. What I mean by the psd processor, is the balls that rotate kind of like the SBDO when the app is executing a paint stroke. So I tried your suggestion, mad a new file 7w x 5d at 72pi, set the brush to 25px at 100% hardness and made a stroke with the wacom pen. It worked fine. The issue is working in large files say around letter size at 300dpi or large format graphics for trade shows at 150dpi. These files can range anywhere from 6ft x 8ft high to 16ft w x 10 ft h for an example. So painting in a channel mask or retouching using the brush tool in airbrush mode is painfully slow. I've found that while this little psd icon is spinning, if I take the wacom mouse, click on an adjacent layer then go back to the layer I was working on and resume with the airbrush, the problem subsides. It seems this spinning thing happens when I initially start using the brush on a layer or layer mask. Do you get what I'm trying to explain?

Photoshop cs6 dont change direction (mac osx 10.7.3) fron character window

problem in photoshop cs6 beta middle eastern (mac osx 10.7.3)
when try change text direction from character window not working,,, only working if i changed it from menu > type > language option.
im sorry if my english not good
thanks

Somehow I'm pretty confident that I'm understanding you a lot better than you understand my post.
I understand you are using an ME version of Photoshop, so you need to be able to write both from left to right and from right to left. You seem to be having problems reversing direction from one of the menu items, and those problems arise when you work with very large files.
What I am telling you is that what may be precipitating those problems in large files is the very little hard drive space you have left in your one and only drive you have designated as your primary scratch disk, as evidenced by your screen shot:
Since that drive "OS X" appears to be also your boot drive, that means that the paltry 12 GB of HD space you have left on that drive will have to be shared by Photoshop's scratch disk with the swap files of the OS. That is not enough, in my opinion.
I like to reserve a dedicated hard drive with 160 GB for Photoshop's scratch disk alone.
Hope I explained myself better this time.

Yes, it works for me, but it's important to delete all the preferences on upgrading to mavericks:

Photoshop CS6 extremely slow response times on Mavericks?

It sounds like a lot of people are having issues with Mavericks. I was happy as a clam with CS4, but a hard drive replacement - with the latest OS - forced me into CS6 (I have a subscription) a few months ago. Since then, it's been like simming in quicksand...
I've spoken with several reps, and they figured out that some of the issues were due to a bad user account. That's all fixed now, but it's still taking several minutes to become 'responsive' if I step away from the program for any length of time. Even if I just go to check email. It can take two minutes (or more) for the keys to become active.
It feels like I've disabled nearly everything off Photoshop, and it doesn't seem to matter if it's a complex multi-layered file or a screenshot PNG. It's all just painfully slow.
Can anyone suggest some tricks to get back my old' speed?

Moving this discussion to the Photoshop General Discussion forum.

PhotoShop CS6 extreme slow running

PhotoShop CS6 will not run usably on my new iMac 27in. I am using OS 10.8.4. Theother parts of CS6 seem to be fine, but PhotoShop is so impossibly slow (every click takes 20-30 seconds to respond, so a simple scaling of a photograph that would normally take me one minute can take me up to ten minutes.
Has anyone else encountered this, or is it just a problem with my iMac? Apple claim that no-one else has contacted them with this problem.

Resetting prefs is the first thing to try.
After that, you should try setting the font preview size to "none" and see if that helps (which would mean a corrupt font or OS font cache).
If you are running any third party plugins, try disabling them.

Photoshop CS6 extremely slow after changing text engine to Middle Eastern

Hello,
I'm using PS CS6 13.0.5 x64 on Snow Leopard (iMac 27" late 2012)
I tried to change the text engine to Middle Eastern, but after I restart PS, the program is nearly non-responsive, and it takes forever to edit text. Changing it back to East Asian solves the problem, but then again, I want to use the Middle Eastern feature...
When I use Illustrator CS6 I don't have such problems (although I have to write backwords, since there is no support for right-to-left in Illustrator in my version)
What could be the problem?

The problem is that you do not have a Middle Eastern version of Photoshop:

I believe the latest version of the ME edition is CS5.

I have a 3 year old MacBook Pro with MAC OSX 10.6.8, iPhoto '09 version 8.1.2 and have downloaded two software programs: one is Aperture 3.2 and the other is Photoshop Elements 9 (which I got from a friend who didn't need it). I am totally happy with the

I have a 3 year old MacBook Pro with MAC OSX 10.6.8, iPhoto ’09 version 8.1.2 and have downloaded two software programs: one is Aperture 3.2 and the other is Photoshop Elements 9 (which I got from a friend who didn’t need it).
I am totally happy with the way iPhoto organizes my photos and how I can work with iMovie to create slide shows with music from iTunes, etc.
I have been shooting mostly high resolution jpegs and I continue to learn more and more about photography, post processing etc. I realize that the small adjustments I can make in iPhoto are good, and are adequate most of the time. However, a have started to experiment with shooting RAW images and would like to go the next step, ie. post processing.I am totally technically challenged and need SIMPLE, INTUITIVE programs and am certainly NOT anywhere ready for Photoshop CS whatever!
After having these programs sit on my computer, I decided to try to see if I could figure them out. When I opened Aperture, this is what first comes up.
“Welcome to Aperture 3.2
Your library needs to be upgraded to work with this version of Aperture. Once upgraded, you will not be able to use this library with previous versions of Aperture.
Upgrading a library from previous versions of Aperture 3 generally takes a few minutes or less, though larger libraries will take longer. After that, Aperture 3.2 will upgrade your library's thumbnails, but you can use the application during that time.
Tip: To open a different library, quit Aperture and hold the Option key down while starting Aperture
Current Library Location:
Jadzia (home) -----Pictures------Aperture Library
QUIT UPGRADE”
I have heard horror stories about moving your entire library to Aperture, ending up with 2 libraries, etc. etc. hence my previous reluctance in attempting Aperture. In addition, many of my photography friends are saying: Go with Lightroom 3.....you’ll love it!
So here is my dilemma. I don’t want to mess around with my iPhoto library. All I want to be able to do, is to isolate a few photos, export them to Aperture, Elements, and work on them there, then bring them back into iPhoto.
Can I do this? Should I forget about Aperture and Elements and look at purchasing yet another program like Lightroom?

Export those few photos via the File ➙ Export ➙ File Export menu option with Kind = Original to the Desktop. Then import them into the Aperture library. That would keep one copy in your iPhoto library and another in your Aperture library to edit, etc.
You can use Photoshop Elements 9 from within iPhoto as your editor of choice. However, if you edit a raw file in iPhoto with PSE9 the resulting edited version must be saved outside the iPhoto Library and imported back in as a new file. For editing jpegs just do a Save (not a Save As) and it all will be kept within iPhoto.
Using Photoshop or Photoshop Elements as Your Editor of Choice in iPhoto.
1 - select Photoshop or Photoshop Elememts as your editor of choice in iPhoto's General Preference Section's under the "Edit photo:" menu.
2 - double click on the thumbnail in iPhoto to open it in Photoshop. When you're finished editing click on the Save button. If you immediately get the JPEG Options window make your selection (Baseline standard seems to be the most compatible jpeg format) and click on the OK button. Your done.
3 - however, if you get the navigation window
that indicates that PS wants to save it as a PS formatted file. You'll need to either select JPEG from the menu and save (top image) or click on the desktop in the Navigation window (bottom image) and save it to the desktop for importing as a new photo.
This method will let iPhoto know that the photo has been editied and will update the thumbnail file to reflect the edit..
NOTE: With Photoshop Elements the Saving File preferences should be configured as shown:
I also suggest the Maximize PSD File Compatabilty be set to Always. In PSE’s General preference pane set the Color Picker to Apple as shown:
Note: to switch between iPhoto and PS or PSE as the editor of choice Control (right)-click on the thumbnail and select either Edit in iPhoto or Edit in External Editor from the contextual menu. If you use iPhoto to edit more than PSE re-select iPhoto in the iPhoto General preference pane. Then iPhoto will be the default editor and you can use the contextual menu to select PSE for your editor when desired.

Photoshop with mac osx 10.6.8

I have a MAC with mac osx 10.6.8 and I want to install a photoshop. How can I do it?

Hi eviladrich,
If you are looking to install PS cc version on your Mac , I am afraid that wont work as the min system requirement for PS CC is MAC OS 10.7 or above . You can check the min system requirement for rest of the version from this link : http://helpx.adobe.com/x-productkb/policy-pricing/system-requirements-photoshop.html .
Also , If you wish to download a prior version , you can use this link : http://prodesigntools.com/ and navigate to Downloads section .

Photoshop CS6 installation failing with Creative Cloud Subscription

I have a Creative Cloud subscription and I am having trouble installing Photoshop CS6 with the Adobe Application Manager. The application will download but when installing it gives me an Installation Failed error with the message "The download appears corrupted. Press Cancel, wait a few minutes and try again (-60)"
I am using a Macbook Pro 17" i7 8GB with Mac OSX 10.7.3.
When I look at the DLM_Native.log file using the Console I get a whole bunch of errors like the following.
[ERROR] | 7B2C1C2F-AC72-4B17-9D58-C9BC80BC9A07 | | | | | | Checksum validation failed for segment 510
[WARN] | 7B2C1C2F-AC72-4B17-9D58-C9BC80BC9A07 | | | | | | Some Error has come during download operation with Error type - -60, and Error Code - 417
I have about 60GB of free hard drive space, so I know I am not running out of space for installation.
I do not see an alternative way of downloading other than the Adobe Application Manager. If I go to my orders page on Adobe.com and click download for Photoshop CS6 it just opens the Application Manager and begins downloading from there.
I have downloaded and installed Illustrator and Flash Professional using the Application Manager without issue.

Thanks for the quick response Jeff. I wonder if there's something else going on. All the other apps (Illustrator, InDesign, Dreamweaver et al) downloaded and installed to the same location (Applications folder) no problem using the application manager. When I tried to use the download manager to download Photoshop separately, the download destination was set to the desktop, while logged in with administrator privileges. The .dmg downloaded without any apparent problems but generated a checksum error warning when I tried to expand it. I tried several times, had antivirus and Little Snitch turned off, tried again after restarting etc. to no avail.
Interestingly, my colleague experienced the exact same problems on his (Mac) system, which is running same OS.
I got around all this by downloading Photoshop from the CS6 direct download page using the link you provided, for which many thanks.

Is Photoshop 6.0 compatible with Mac OS Mavericks or Yosemite and if yes, how do I install?

is Photoshop 6.0 compatible with Mac OS Mavericks or Yosemite and if yes, how do I install?

Well, probably not what you wanted to hear, but if you come across an older Mac, you should be able to use your old copy.
These are the old system requirements. You want CS6 or better for today's Intel/OSX Macs.
• PowerPC® processor
• Mac OS software version 8.5, 8.6,or 9.0
• 64 MB of RAM* (with Virtual Memory on)
• 125 MB of available hard-disk space (after install)
• Color monitor with 256-color (8-bit) or greater video card
• 800x600 or greater monitor resolution
• CD-ROM drive
And thanks for reporting back, at least I know what happened even if it didn't fix things.

Using a network-stored catalog with Mac OSX

Greetings all.
I am using Photoshop Elements 11 on Mac OSX Mountain Lion and want to store my catalog on a local network drive (FreeNAS). I have encountered many problems while attempting to do this. Then I noticed in the Elements Organizer help, under the section "Repair a catalog", the following: "Note: (Mac OS) You cannot access catalogs present on a network drive."
Is this true. or has someone found a workaround to the problem?
Thanks!
--John

Thanks, for that ( I assume we have to carry on in English due to forum policy even though we are both of German tongue I assume)
You mean the access problems are part of the "no network drive" thing? I suspected that. Took me a whole day in front of my computer to realign the mess. So should one better not use the network drives at all? Quite a pity in times where everybody seems to use network storage.
No, I did not use organizer to use the photos. So there is no way to reconnect them? Should I delete the catalogue and start with the photos from scratch?
Regards
Andibuch

Well, yes, these are part of the "no network drive" thing.
As for moving the photos, did you use organizer to move them? You will always have trouble if you move photos outside of organizer, even on the same drive--you have to let it manage your photos or it doesn't have a clue as to what happened.

Cisco Connect does not run with Mac OSX Mountain Lion (10.8.2)

When I first installed Cisco Connect that came with my E1500 router, I was running Mac OSX Snow Leopard (10.7) and it worked fine. I upgraded my OSX to Mountain Lion and now when I start Cisco Connect, I get:
Unsupported operating system
The router software supports these operating systems:
- Mac OS X 10.5.8 or later
- Mac OS X 10.6.1 or later
- Mac OS X 10.7 or later
I saw some other thread/info/download on Cisco Connect with Lion (10.7) but nothing for Moutain Lion (10.8) - is there a fix forthcoming?
Thanks
Gary

All i want to do is disable the guest function through cisco. i live in an apartment and everyone logs into my guest account. i was at my neighbours and they were laughing saying they done need to subscribe for the internet cause they just log onto local wi fi. and mine is one of them. i dont know if that'll slow down my internet with so many people using it. but all i want to do is just avoid it all together and get rid of it. but in this case i am having the same problem as all of you. to disable the guest function you need to go through cisco connect and it is not compatible with mac osx mountain lion. grrrrrrr
