Photoshop CS6 Mac 10.8 bug/Error

Photoshop becomes unresponsive for a brief period of time, cacheing all activities until it catches up with itself. This error is scrolling everytime it happens and it happens almost any time switching from another program to Photoshop.
iMac.local WindowServer[79]: _CGXGetWindowOrderingGroup: Operation on a window 0x6c requiring rights 0x5 by caller Photoshop
Is this a bug? I have found no information on this issue searching on it. Really is killing productivity, as not having any other programs open is not an option.

yes i have the same problem how did you resolve?

Re: CS6 updates and Mac write permissions
Need Adobe help to solve this. My own searches in Forums and Google all have failed.

It is not an Adobe problem. You have a OS permissions problem. You can try to correct this by using Disk Utility to Repair Permissions. It is in the First Aid area of Disk Utility.

Resize brush in the liquify filter, photoshop cs6 Mac (13.0.4)

Hello,
I just update to photoshop cs6 (Mac 13.0.4). Unfortunately, it's not possible anymore to resize brush in the liquify filter by "CTRL-Option-drag" like I did before in former CS6 version.
Has anyone encountered the same problem ?
Many thanks for your help.

its not ctrl+option+drag
its ctrl+option+shift and launch your ps, delete the
setting file when prompted.
open your photoshop.

I use my own color profiles from Photoshop CS6/Mac Pro - how do I turn of Epson Artisan 837 printer color management?

I use my own color profiles from Photoshop CS6/Mac Pro - how do I turn of Epson Artisan 837 printer color management?

Choose Photoshop Manages Color in the CS6 print dialogue. At the top, click the Print Settings button and disable any color management settings for the printer.
Edit: Correction, that's CS6 in Snow Leopard. In Mountain Lion, if you check the print settings, color management for the printer should automatically be disabled when using Photoshop Manages Color.

Photoshop CS6 has out of memory errors under Mac OS X 10.7.4

Has anyone who has a 2008 MacBoo Pro with the NVIDIA GeForce 8600M GT 512 MB graphics card tried running Photoshop CS6 under Mac OS X 10.7.4?
On my MacBook Pro, PS CS6 launches; however, any action results in an out of memory error. The CS6 versions of After Effects, Premiere Pro and Illustrator all launch and run as expected under 10.7.4.
If I switch to my Mac OS X 10.6.8 startup volume, Photoshop CS6 runs as expected.
I have support cases open with Adobe, NVidia and Apple. Adobe thinks I need to update the display drivers. NVidia says display drivers must be provided by Apple. Apple says that the display drivers are current. The Apple support agent said that he can escalate the case if the issue can be reproduced on more than one computer.
I'd love to keep my MacBook Pro running another year or so without having to reboot in 10.6.8 every time I need to use Photoshop. I'd stay with 10.6.8, but of course iCloud requires 10.7.4.
I have not tried 10.8 yet, but it's on my troubleshooting list.
Also, PS CS6 runs fine under Mac OS X 10.7.4 on my 2010 iMac.
Thanks in advance for any feedback.

It looks like it was indeed the display driver for the NVIDIA GeForce 8600 GT 512 MB graphics card inside my 2008 MacBook Pro.
It seems that this driver only gets installed if you upgrade from Mac OS X 10.6.7 to 10.7.4 while the startup drive is connected to the MacBook Pro itself. I had updated while the startup drive was connected to my 2010 iMac. Accordingly, I could have reinstalled Photoshop 100 times without it ever launching as expected. Having used the external startup drive with three other Apple computers (all 2010 or newer machines) with Photoshop CS6 launching as expected, I had just assumed (mistakenly) that it would work as expected with my 2008 computer.
So, this was simple enough to resolve by upgrading the OS on the external startup drive while having it connected to the MacBook Pro. In hindsight, this makes perfect sense.

Photoshop CS6 intermittently freezes with no error

Photoshop CS6 periodically freezes on my iMac running 10.9.5. It did the same thing on 10.9.4. I tried uninstalling and reinstalling; this did not help. I don't use any plug-ins and haven't modified Preferences. When it freezes, there is no error message, but I cannot move the main Photoshop window, nor can I click on any buttons or move sliders or use any of the options in panels. Curiously, I can pull down menus in the top menu bar (File, Edit, Image, etc.) but since these menu options open dialog boxes that are not functional, I'm pretty much dead-in-the-water.
If I open the Force Quit Applications window (Cmd-Option-Esc), Photoshop looks like it is running normally, i.e. it doesn't say "Not Responding". If I Force Quit anyway and restart, Photoshop behaves normally for a while (time varies) and then freezes again.
This behavior does not seem to be associated with any particular action or command that I can discern. If I don't Force Quit, then Photoshop eventually recovers on its own and starts working normally for awhile before freezing again. Anyone have suggestions for corrective steps?

Photoshop CS6 Not Loading: Actions & Preferences Errors

Photoshop CS6 has been working like a dream, and recently it has pushed some very large files.
But, upon trying to open Photoshop this morning, I get these two messages:
Could not load actions because an unexpected end-of-file was encountered.
Could not initialize Photoshop because the Preferences file was invalid (it has been deleted).
          - although the file was still in the AppData...Adobe Photoshop CS6 Settings.
Tried to 'restore' Preferences:
Keyboard - CTRL ALT SHFT upon clicking PSD icon
Said 'Yes' to allow changes to system
Still received same two messages
Removed the Adobe Photoshop CS6 Prefs.psp
          Restarted Photoshop, still received same two messages.
          Tried resetting, CTL ALT SHFT, again still same two messages.
Read Adobe thread to 'rename' the Actions Palette.psp, but keep it in the folder:
I renamed it 'renamed' and left the Adobe Photoshop CS6 Prefs.psp in the folder as well.
Did not receive the 'load actions' error, but
Still received the 'Preference file was invalid' message.
Tried CTRL ALT SHFT to reset,
Still received the 'Preference file was invalid' message.
Left the Actions as 'renamed', but removed the Adobe Photoshop CS6 Prefs.psp file as well.
Still received the 'Preference file was invalid' message.
Tried CTRL ALT SHFT to reset,
Still received the 'Preference file was invalid' message.
Do I need to do a re-install?
Thanks bunches,

I am having only the single issue:
Could not initialize Photoshop because preferences files was invalid (it has been deleted).
What happened was that I had to do a force quit (Mac OSX 10.8.4) due to Spotlight and Parallels Win 7 running a system slowdown.   I don't believe my new HD is corrupted. BUt there has to be a way to get PShop working again.. I've tried shift start and not loading 3rd party plugins, but nothing is working.
UPDATE: Download and reinstall fixed it after uninstalling and removing preferences. However, you can't use the CC Applications Manager to do so. You have to do a direct download.

Extract Filter for Photoshop cs6 Mac

Hi
I still use the extract filter with Photoshop cs6 and I rely on it for my pet portraits. I currently use it on a PC but am considering changing it to a Mac. Will I still be able to use the Extract filter on the Mac? I really can't get on with Refine Edges, it doesn't give me the smae quality results.

See if the following help:

Reinstall Photoshop CS6 in Win7 results in error.

I don't think I installed the 32-bit version PS CS6 Upgrade into Windows 7 64-bit after I downloaded it over a year ago. So, today, I went to execute Photoshop_13_LS16.exe file and I got the error message:
"The file archive part of Adobe Photoshop CS6 is missing. You need all parts in the same folder to extract Adobe Photoshop CS6. Please download all parts."
What do I do to fix this?
Thanks!

To install the software, it's necessary that both files(.exe file and a .7z file) are downloaded and located in the same folder.
Make sure this the case to resolve the issue.

Photoshop CS6 MAC OS how do I locate an open image in the finder?

Every version of Photoshop on MAC platform before CS6 gave me a path to my image in the finder when I right-clicked or Control Clicked on the title bar.
Now I get information I can easily get elsewhere and there's no intuitive way to get my path information.
This is inconsistent with other CS applications as well.
Anybody have any ideas?
Really frustrating is that after saving an image it works, then if I leave the image open, click on another image, then click back to the one I just saved, the option list is different when I right click.
See attached.

Inconsistency between or among applications in the artificial "suites" should come as no surprise.
The "suite" concept is a complete fabrication of Adobe marketing and bean-counting types. The engineering teams are totally independent of each other, they are not only in different buildings but in different cities and states of the American Union, even in different countries.
The fact that they have little if any communication among them is highlighted by requests occasionally made in these forums by top Adobe engineers to let the other teams know when there are problems in one application that impact our workflow in another one.

Tool Menu Stopped working in Photoshop CS6 Mac?

Today when I opened my Photoshop CS6 on my Mac in OS 10.9, the tool menu stopped allowing me to select a different tool by clicking on the lower right arrow in the tool boxes. Before, I could click on , say the brush tool, and hold the mouse down to select a different kind of paint brush. Now nothing happens when I click?
I tried trashing preferences, checking my mouse preferences, etc. Nothing seems to be different, and yet this maddening behavior has taken over.
Right click does open up the menu, but I much prefer the old way.
Anyone encounter this problem?

The popup list seems to have a time delay built in that at times I have seen not work. A right click the will usually pop up the list. Resetting tools and preferences and reboot is wort a try to fix the behavior

Photoshop Cs6 (TRIAL) - Installation failed - Encountered Errors.

Hi, Sorry I don't know if this question has been asked yet, so I'll have to ask.
Everytime I have tried to install the Photoshop CS6 trial, it says that my installation has failed and that it has encountered errors. Below is what my error report says.
Exit Code: 15 -------------------------------------- Summary -------------------------------------- - 0 fatal error(s), 1 error(s), 0 warning(s) ERROR: Media DB Error : 12
So, I'm not understanding what the error is.
I know I meet the system requirements because I'm running:
Microsoft Windows 7 (Home Premium)
4 GB RAM
585 GBs of Hard Drive.
It says 86x bit? I think?
I'm pretty sure that I have those met.
Other than that, I'm just not understanding why this isn't working.
Adobe Download Assist is installed just fine.
Hope someone can help!

Did you have the Photoshop Beta installed? If yes, then you need to uninstall that one before you can install the trial.
Does your account have sufficient privileges? If not, you might need to log in as Admin.
Run the install again.
If the error recurs, then run CS Cleaner Tool and remove all products.
Reinstalling after that, should resolve the problem. Get the Cleaner tool here: http://www.adobe.com/support/contact/cscleanertool.html
Let us know how it goes.
