PhotoShop CS6 - Lighting Effects Not showing

I know the question sounds like the ones you get all the time but in PhotoShop cs6 I can access the filter>render>lighting effects but when I click the lighting effect tab nothing shows and when I watch a tutorial and people open filter>render>lighting effects a adjustable thing appears on the layer which they can edit but I can not do this. Any help?

I had exactly the same problem and here is the answer: update the driver for your video card. And when you update, go to the vendor website! (i.e. the vendor of the particular video card you have). If you don't know what kind of video card you have, use the commands: Control Panel/System/Device Manager, then double-click on "Display Adapter". It will display a tab called "Driver", which will give you the date of your current driver. If it is anything older than maybe a year, go to the vendor site and download the appropriate driver. My download was about 260MB in size. It also seemed to improve my screen resolution a little at the same time.
But there is more! Photoshop CC uses two things called OpenGl and OpenCL. I have no idea what they are, BUT, I think both of them must be selected in order for Lighting Effects to work on Photoshop CC. And where do you select these things? Edit/Preferences/Performance
And finally, check the box "Use Graphics Processor", then click on "Advanced Settings". Under Advanced Settings you will see
And you guessed it! Click on the box "Use OpenCL". I have no idea if the 30 bit display box should be checked - I was trying everything at one point.
Anyway, it seems like Adobe has adopted new technology somewhere along the way, such technology not being included in video drivers just a few years old. Personally, I think Adobe should have made more of an effort to highlight this problem and provide an easier-to-figure-out solution.
Hope this helps!

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 Landscape Printing not working. Works fine in CS5.1

When I select Landscape printing, Photoshop CS6 waitis a moment and then goes back to portrait printing. And it will not print landscape. I still have CS5.1 and it works fine. I'm not sure what to do.

Yes, I did update to v13.0.1. It still will only print portrait.
My printer is an HP Photosmart C309a. All other programs landscape printing works. (Microsoft Publisher & Word 2007 for example).
When I click the landscape icon to change the print settings to print landscape--the program just waitis a few moments and then goes back to the selecting the portrait button.

Photoshop CS6 Filter Gallery not working...

The Filter Gallery in my Photoshop CS6 is "greyed out" all of the sudden! I cannot access it! So... I cannot use my filters...
Any ideas what might be wrong?
It was fine yesterday.

Hello, to follow on John's answer, or you are not in RGB color mode. You can change both settings in Image>Mode

Photoshop CS6 clone tool not working

My son banged on my keyboard while I was in the middle of editing a photo using the clone tool. Now the tool is looks as though it's working when I'm sampling an area but when I go to change the designated area it isn't doing anything. And it's got a bright white spot in the circle. Help please!

The clone tool suddenly stopped working today. I read all the posts and did everything mentioned. I went back to CS5 and it works fine. I did notice in PS CC the clone tool sets the brush in TRANSFER to pen pressure. I can turn that off and lock it, but it will immediately turn it back on when I use the clone tool. It was working fine one second then stopped. It is working VERY lightly even though set to 100%. I discovered this by creating a new document with black and white and cloning there.
What happened?
I did have a CC update just before this happened. I did reset everything, turn everything on and off, turn off the Graphics Processor, turn off every other application, updated the driver for the waccom tablet... all to no avail.
Any solutions? I shall have to go back to CS5. Don't want to. HELP!

Photoshop CS6 keyboard shortcut not working -- what is this red bar tool?

I want Ctrl+Shift+S to do SAVE AS. I set it as such in the keyboard shortcuts, but when I do that key combo, all I get is this:
What is this thing? The mouse pointer changes to this. I can move it around and draw a box (in the background of PS, outside any open images). I have no idea what it is, but I want it to go away and do SAVE AS instead. Can anyone help? Thanks.

Hi Globe199, PS already has this shortcut for Save As by default as shown below.
Have you changed something in Keyboard Shortcuts ?

How to set up the interaction between InDesign CS6 8.0 and Photoshop CS 6 - if Photoshop is installed and the 64 and 32-bit?? default InDesign refers to the 64-bit version of Photoshop and scripts do not work.

Nice of you to point it out here as I at least don’t follow Mr.Nash’s blog regularly.

Lighting Effect not work in CS6*

Why Filter/ Render/ Lighting Effect not work in CS6?
It's not work only in CS6 Beta or in anything else :-/. It's Useful with me

A bit more information would be helpful. What is happening on your system when you go to lighting effects?
What system are you running on? What video card are you using? Are you using the most recent driver?
Do check our system FAQ as GPU is requried for lignting effects to work properly.
FAQ: What features use the GPU and how do I troubleshoot GPU issues?

Adobe Photoshop CS6 Extended Could not complete your request because of a program error.

When starting Photoshop CS6 I get this error message, Adobe Photoshop CS6 Extended Could not complete your request because of a program error (-- OK --). This happens on the main screen immediately. Once I click OK the program seems to be alright. But some part of it, that I haven't discovered yet, may not function properly.
I am running Windows7 Professional Service Pack 1 64 bit with Intel i7-4770k CPU and 16 GIG Ram.
This problem just started recently, everything has been fine up till now. I must have done something when trying to defragment the Registry or get rid of temp files.
I have uninstalled Photoshop CS6 and reinstalled it with no effect. I have tried to run Photoshop CS6 32 bit in Safe Mode, but it will not run. It hangs up on Reading Memory.
Is there any kind log file that would tell me what is causing this to occur?
Does anyone know what might cause this?
Thank you in advance for any helpful information.

Did you reset your Preferences and Photoshop tools. Photoshop Preferences are not removed with an un-install and an Install does not install preferences. Preferences are created for a user id when a user ID start Photoshop and there are no preferences for the user ID.

Adobe Photoshop Elements 12 does not work with Yosemite 10.10

My Adobe Photoshop Elements 12 does not work with Yosemite 10.10 nor does my Premier Elements 12. When I try to start them up I get the error message. After uninstalling and reinstalling a few times its still the same. Strangely enough PSE 11 seem to work with Yosemite. I uninstalled my Premier Elements as well and it behave the same way. How do I get a new copy of Premier Elements 12 to reinstall?

Just to further test what is happening to my iMac on Yosemite is I downloaded the trial version of Photoshop CC and when I go to launch it it gives mr the same error message as when I try to launch PES 12 or Premier Elements 12. So whatever the problem is it involves all three and so upgrading to Photoshop CC doesn't even help. Could there be an Adobe file damaged or missing somewhere that is common to these and yet does not effect Revel and Lightroom?

Filter Gallery in Photoshop CS 6 is not working

Filter gallery in photoshop CS 6 is not working. I have Photoshop CS 5 also on this machine and Filter Gallery works on it. Also, I have Photoshop CS6 on a laptop and it works on it.
My file is RGB 8 bit color. I have reset Photoshop using Ctl+Shift+alt
When I go to the Filter Gallery filters the object is not changed. Not a thing!
My CS6 is fully updated.

Hi,
What operating system are you using?
Could you post a screenshot of the filter gallery?
The only thing that comes to mind right now, if your not seeing a change in image in the filter gallery dialog, is maybe you have the eye next to filter name off.

After Effects not working in Mavericks

Is anyone having issues with Adobe After Effects not working in Maveriks? Premeire, Photoshop, Audition all work, but not AE. No update from Adobe available.

This update is ONLY FOR MAVERICKS. You can't update through Creative Cloud, to prevent users of other operating systems from installing it.

Saving a Photoshop CC project from a Mac (in .PSD format) to a thumb drive and trying to transfer it to a Dell laptop with Photoshop CS6. Will not open...Error message: could not complete your request because it is not a valid photoshop document.

Saving a Photoshop CC project from a Mac (in .PSD format) to a thumb drive and trying to transfer it to a Dell laptop with Photoshop CS6. Will not open...Error message: could not complete your request because it is not a valid photoshop document.

The file was corrupted somewhere along the way (assuming it was still readable on the Macintosh).
The platforms don't matter, but you still need file transfer that doesn't corrupt files...
