THE PRODUCTS ADOBE CS6 MAKE DOWNGRADE TO CS 5.5 ? THANKS!

No, there are no downgrades. You only get access to older versions if you boughte them back then or are part of a volume licensing program that allows this.

My Photoshop cs6 makes every font oblique

Hi guys!
As said, my Photoshop makes every font oblique. Not italic, but oblique. So that to make the text straight I have to skew it.
Does anybody know why this happens and how do I solve it?
Thanks!

Is Photoshop CS6 different from CS5?

I recently went back to school to expand my career skills and the next class in line for me, is Photoshop. I’m trying to find out if I’m OK with CS5 or if I need to upgrade to CS6. As I just mentioned, I currently have CS5. For a couple classes I completed this year (Flash and Dreamweaver), I was able to use CS5 without any issue, limitations, or instances of “Yeah that can be done, but only on CS6.” I also did not have instances in the class lessons of “You can do this, but not if you’re on CS5.” However, from what I heard/read, Photoshop seems to have had the most significant changes in the CS6 update.
Here are my questions:
Please, from a technical perspective only, do I need to upgrade to CS6? Will being on CS5 on my home computer put me at a disadvantage in class when I'm being taught via CS6? Is Photoshop CS6 significantly different from CS5 where if being taught via CS6, I would be lost or very limited on CS5? When you upgraded to CS6 did you feel like you were learning a new program, or was it the same as CS5, just with a few new “nice to have” features?
Again, please provide information from a technical perspective only. If the decision to spend $2000 for CS6, was based on preference, I would have had CS6 a long time ago. Also, please don’t recommend CC because I’m not ready to upgrade to subscription based software yet.
Thanks!

Have you tried running the trial version of CS6 for 30 days to get a feel for the software and perhaps answer for yourself the many questions you obviously have?

No local help files for Photoshop CS6 extended

Hi
I wish to use local help files for Photoshop CS6 but only online support is available. Local files are not listed under the Adobe Help preferences. The option to search only local rather than online help is greyed out. I found and downloaded a PDF with of the help files but don't know where to install it or if this is possible. I have CS 5 Creative Suite and this works fine giving the option of local or online help when accessed.
Is there a way to install and use local help files in photoshop CS6?
Thank you.

Hi and thanks for directing me to that article, it should have done the trick. I am using mac mountain lion 10.8.5.
The help system has always operated oddly - I have Photoshop cs6 but also the cs5 master suite installed. CS5 works fine but Photoshop cs6 only gives the option for online help and then directs me to the CC site. There is no simple listing for just Photoshop help in the help menu - presumably as it is not seeing it installed
I tried various configurations in the article, having to set up the folders they suggested. In my case, in a variety of alternative places as I have a boot up volume with the documents folder moved onto a RAID array so the Shared folder is not in the documents folder but in Users on the boot drive. So - confusing - but tried all the likely candidates and folder configurations/locations while following the instructions as closely as possible. Even tried an documents folder alias to redirect the program to the alternative path way.
At least now I have the PDFs and can look through them outside the adobe interface. The problem with the community site being questions regarding photoshop alone, yield answers for all sort of other issues and programs.
Thanks for your help though, which should have worked, appreciated.

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.

Can I remove safely Photoshop CS5 after a successful upgrade to Photoshop CS6?

Can I remove safely Photoshop CS5 after a successful upgrade to Photoshop CS6? What is best and safest way to do this?

If you are using a Windows OS
Open CS5 and go Help > Deactivate.
Then Control Panel > Programs and features > select CS5 and uninstall.
Or just leave it there. Make sure you have sorted any third party plugins from CS5, although the uninstall should leave them intact.

Can I merge Photoshop CS6 with extended into Photoshop CS4 or CS5 will work together ?

Can I merge Photoshop CS6 with extended into Photoshop CS4 or CS5 will work together ?

Versions of Photoshop have different installation trees and user preferences. You do not merge Photoshop versions. Each version is independent. When you install newer versions of Photoshop the are options to migrate your presets and Preferences. You can start and use any version installed on your machine. For the most part newer version of Photoshop are backwards compatible with older versions of Photoshop. However some changes Adobe make to Photoshop change user interfaces and and the way Photoshop performs some functions these changes break some user actions, scripts and user work-flows. In fact all the version you listed CS4, CS5 and CS6 have comparability issues. In that respect Photoshop CC is not any better it has compatibility issues.
Newer versions of Photoshop have new functions and updated old function. Older versions can not handle everything save by newer versions of Photoshop. If you save PSD and PSB files with the maximum compatibility option checked. Older version should be able to open you layer document with layers that look like what was saved though some layer may be altered and may even be a different layer kind then was saved. If you need to support older versions of Photoshop always use the maximum compatibility option.

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

Classical case of context handler overflow. Delete your file associations in Explorer, thne reinstate them using the Open With... method. also make virus scanners, compression tools and others that may add additional associations and context handlers behave by disabling their all too helpful Explorer integration options where appropriate...

Photoshop CS6 issue with shortcuts and my keyboard after upgrade from CS5

I recently upgraded from CS5 Extended to CS6 Extended on my Mac (Mavericks), but installed it in English instead of German this time. I transferred most of my presets just fine, but none of the keyboard shortcuts were working. All I got was an unequal sign for all shortcuts and even manually changing them didn't get them to work. I found a few discussions about this issue and ended up adding a German keyboard, as I am always on the Romaji setting of my Kotoeri (Japanese) keyboard. That seemed to solve the issue, but only if I change to the German keyboard before opening Photoshop. Shortcuts don't work in CS5 anymore either unless I do. Sometimes the shortcuts also stop working a while after I change back to the Kotoeri keyboard.
Now I would like to know if there is any way to get around this issue. Isn't there a way to get my shortcuts working again without constantly having to change keyboards? I much prefer the Kotoeri one since the icon for the German keyboard in my menu bar looks extremely obnoxious, in my opinion. It's mostly a cosmetic thing to me, but I would love to get everything back to the way it was before.
I'd much appreciate any advice or help.

I am having a similar problem. Just upgraded to Apple Yosemite and all none of my keyboard shortcuts are working in a clean install of Photoshop CS6. Every menu item has some form of the ≠ sign. I've trashed the .plist file, rebuilt permissions, etc. Even basic keyboard commands, like Command-N for NEW or Command-Q for QUIT do not work. In fact, many don't show up in the menu at all. I don't have this issue in InDesign CS6 or Illustrator CS6. Every once in awhile, maybe 1 time out of 20, menus and keyboard shortcuts work properly, but I can't find any pattern.

How do you make a .ico file in Photoshop CS6?

I used to use a plugin in previous versions, but the file formats sub-directory is missing from the plugins directory. See screenshot :
Surely this should be possible in CS6 (extended even) straight out of the box given that every web developer on the planet needs to make loads of these ...

I read this thread today to try and place the .ICO plugin in the plugins folder.
It didn't work for me either. However.... I found for some reason when I installed CS6 on to my 64bit PC.... it has installed it in two different places.
The first place I tried was in the [Progam Files x86] - seems the right place...right? Not so, for some reason.
Whereas... I found a Photoshop CS6 file in [Program Files] folder too. Popped the plugin in there.... and it worked.
Not sure why I have two installs...? but hey it works.
Cheers to those with useful comments.
#rolleyes at those who didn't.
Thanks folks.

PhotoShop cs6, I can't find Photo Merge to make a Panorama. I looked at Library Prefrences to restore but there isn't an AdobePhotoshop there, help!

Photo Merge is missing in my cs6. I wanted to make a Panorama but can't locate it, where should I look?

It should be under File>Automate>Photomerge in photoshop cs6.
Which operating system are you using?

Photoshop CS6 crashes constantly on 2 very different macs, but CS5 running very stable!

hi
our photoshop cs6 (with latest update to 13.0.4) keeps crashing daily and is not stable at all.
so we would work with cs 5 again, as this version is very stable and wont crash even once in a year.
we are daily/"9-5" working at a photographers´ studio and use 2 different macs:
- brand new mac pro 6-core (2010/Westmere) with 48GB RAM under system 10.8.3
- old mac pro with Two 2.66 GHz Dual-core Intel Xeon "Woodcrest" from 2006 with 16GB RAM under system 10.7.6
(both with standard equipped/shipped graphics cards)
cs6 crashes daily whith following tasks:
- frequent crashs: using "motion blur"
- frequent crashs: using "refine edge"
- sometimes using "transform tool"
during our tests, we found out, that "disable graphics card" (photoshop>settings>performance) in the mac pro from 2006, would prevent a crash, when using "refine edge". in the latest mac pro from 2010, we did not find any solution to prevent a crash.
a "crash", we define as follows: during the mentioned tasks, photoshop is gone from the screen in the blink of second, and an osx sign appears "photoshop has crashed"..
thanks for your time..

Instructions for submitting crash reports with your email address: http://adobe.ly/gNJWVY
As Chris states, this will help us track down your issue.
I agree is Christoph, I would suggest leaving OpenGL/"Use Graphics Processor" enabled and twiddling the Advanced settings for Drawing Mode to "Basic." Then restart Photoshop and see if the problem still persists.
That setting is the main difference between CS5 (Basic) and CS6 (Advanced).
