Photoshop cs6 opacity slider slow refresh why?

Hi
i have photoshop cs6 64 bit , windows 7 64bit with 32gb of ram
the last intel cpu , i nvida geforce gtx 760
photoshop cs6 run fast outside the opacity slider , if i increase or decrease with the mouse , i have a slow refresh
without gpu is more quickly what's wrong?
i have the last nvdia drivers , can you help me?
i add a screenshot to let you see which slider i'm talking about

I have no answer...But yesterday my PsCC win7 would not display on/off when checking on/off previews.  But a restart of Pc and all is normal again.  So I'd try a CPU shutdown and restart....if not fixed, try a Ps prefs reset.

    Photoshop cs6 running extremely slow on opening a file. have reset prefs and set type to none. have to force quit  most of the time.

    I'm experiencing the same trouble.  Photoshop takes 5 minutes to open then runs fine.
    I recently bought a new iMac AND updated to Adobe Master Collection CS6.  My concern is that PhotoShop now takes 5 minutes to open. The Photoshop desktop pops up immediately, but the moment you click on a tool or try to open a file (no matter the size) results in the spinning wheel for five minutes before you can do anything.  After that, Photoshop appears to work fine.
    What I’ve done:
    Ran Adobe updater
    Reset Photoshop Preferences
    Validated all fonts and removed any trouble fonts
    Ran the font test
    Set font preview size to none
    Cleared the Photoshop type cache and system cache
    Disabled Symantec Endpoint
    Tried running with the GPU processor on/off and in basic
    Tried opening Photoshop with optional third party plug-ins turned off (still took five minutes but this time I didn’t even get the Photoshop desktop view until AFTER the five minutes)
    I’m wondering since I migrated the files form my old computer (and older versions of Master Collection) did something get corrupted.

  • Brand New Machine and Photoshop CS6 running very slow

    I just installed Photoshop CS6 on my new Machine and it is running horrible. Moving around objects, turning effects on/off, zooming, and more all take for ever to render.  I can not figure out why. I have updated video card drivers and more. Scratch Disk is set to a second disk and messed with all of the GPU settings. Only photoshop runs bad on this machine. I should not be having issues with the system. Below is the system info from Photoshop. Also this machine is running with two SSD drives which should make PS run even faster.

The file I am working on now is 4000 x 4800 pixels, CMYK, 8 bit depth.  Photoshop is slow selecting layers with auto select, very slow when moving layers around the Canvas, and slow rendering the Canvas when zooming in and out. This document also has about  30 layers and is 80mg.
    I only use the 64 bit version of Photoshop these days. Also all three monitors are set at 60 Hertz. Photoshop is closed and reopened upon all changes.
    I use to be a Photoshop Certified Expert in CS3 so I am extremely familar with the product. I am just stumped.

  • Photoshop CS6 very very slow (Windows 7)

    Hi, im desperate as ive run out of options i think. Photoshop CS6 behaves slow, very slow.
    Even with no document open, right after launch it reacts with delay on any mouseclick, sometimes it takes
    more than 20 seconds before a menu pops open after clicking. Painting paintbrushes are impossible slow.
    Basically any action is dragged.
    Its impossible to work like this. With all previous versions of PS i never encountered this.
    Things i tried :
    - turned off gpu acceleration (i read that gpu can cause performance issues, some ppl solved slowness by turning it off)
    - updated latest nvidia drivers
    - reinstalled photoshop
    - tried to inspect photoshop processes with ProcessHacker, even when at 5% cpu it runs extremely slow
    specs :
    Windows 7
    Nvidia GT545
    1 terrabyte free scratch disk space (on C:)
    8 gb ram
    CPU i7 2600

    Has it always run slow, or did this start recently?
    What anti-virus are you using?  Have you tried disabling it to see it that make a difference?
    Are you working over a network?

  • ACR 8.1 in Photoshop CS6 is terribly slow

    I just installed ACR 8.1 into Photoshop CS6 and it is terribly slow. I’m working on an 8-core Mac Pro with 10GB of RAM, but even if I have one single file open (Nikon D800 NEF), simple actions like zoom in or out or show/hide masks only occur after a two seconds (or more) lag. Scrolling through the image isn't smooth, it jumps up and down like crazy and spinning beachballs appear.
    I tried to reinstall 7.4 but the installer gives an error message: U44M2P7 (even after removing ACR 8.1 from the Plug-ins/File format folder in the Library).
    It is really impossible to work this way (I'm a professional photographer), so does anybody know a way to fix 8.1 or to reinstall 7.4?

    Thanks Noel; I used Time Machine to set the various Adobe folders back to their state before the update, and 7.4 is up and running again.
    But when I started working on the same file again, it was as slow as it was when I ran 8.1. I had created a fair amount of local adjustments, using both the brush and the graduated filter. With the brush I had selected a rather complex shape.
    I discovered that when I removed these local adjustments one by one, ACR became snappier every time. So it seemed that the problem was not related to 8.1, but to both 7.4 and 8.1 becoming sluggish when a fair amount of local adjustments was applied.
    I checked the XMP file of this photo and it had grown to 1.7 MB. I then opened another file whose XMP was 1.1 MB and in this case ACR behaved accordingly: sluggish, but less than with the previous photo.
    I also tested ACR on my laptop, where I had not upgraded to 8.1, and there ACR behaved identically as on my desktop computer.
    So apparently there is a soft, but severe limit to the number and complexity of the local adjustments you can make in ACR. I had made complex adjustments before; and I can't remember to have encountered such behaviour before.
    But from version 7 on you could use a lot more sliders than ever before to define your local adjustments, and I'm now working with huge D800 files. Apparently the first time I really went too far and pushed ACR over it's limits, coincided with the upgrade to ACR 8.1.
    Anyway, problem solved. I hope future versions will be a little more robust (I'm saving for a 60 MP Hasselblad:-)

  • Which is better? Photoshop CS6 or Elements? And why?

    Wife is an avid photographer and likes to be able to fix photos, make collages.  Confused on which is better, Photoshop CS6 (and what is Extended?) or Elements? What are the pros and cons of each? Thank you for your time.

    The Photoshop & Elements users hang out in those software forums.  You should post there.  This area is for MBP technical problems. 

  • Photoshop CS6 running extremely slow after graphics card switch

    My old graphics card died (a evga 8800 Ultra Superclocked 756MB 384 bit), so I replaced it with a (XFX HD-455X-ZAFR Radeon HD 4550 1GB 64-bit DDR2 PCI Express 2.0 x16 ).  I knew this was a less capable card but from reading other forums it seemed that GPU performance was not as big of an issue in Photoshop and the 4550 was a supported card by Photoshop.  However, I was previously able to batch open about 15 (ish) photos at a time to work on in Photoshop.  Now if I open more than 1 everything is VERY slow and even that 1 doesn't open as fast.  Bigger photos appear blurry (but when I zoom in they are not) many filters are slower.  Very annoying.  Nothing else has changed on my computer, just the graphics card.  Here are my specs (I know I need more RAM and have been considering an upgrade there but am not sure if I need to ditch my current video card as well)
    Asustek p5e3 motherboard
    Core 2 extreme qx9650 (quad core at 3.0 ghz)
    4 GB of DDR3 1333mhz ram
    (3) 500 GB 7200RPM hard drives
    Radeon HD 4550 1GB 64-bit DDR2
    500 Watt Power Supply

    I don't mean to be critical, but why would you upgrade to an outdated card like the 4550?  The 4000-series isn't even listed under the cards Photoshop is tested with any more.
    Tested video cards for Photoshop CC and CC 2014
    That said, a problem that can happen with a video card switch is that drivers get left in the system from the old one.
    Maybe it would be a good start in diagnosing this for you go to into the Help - System Info menu, copy the data in the whole first section, and post it here.

  • Photoshop CS6 - Display won't refresh

    I temporarily solved a crash-on-startup issue, as described in this post. However, after about 20 minutes of use, my display has stopped refreshing. I must do a quick zoom in/zoom out in order to get the refresh to occur.
    An example would be creating a new solid colour layer. The new layer is visible in the layers palette, but the image has not updated. I can go and hide all layers, turn them all on, and nothing changes on the image display. If I do a quick CTRL+ / CTRL- then I see the change.
    A restart of the application solves the issue. Is there a GPU memory leak perhaps? I'm using latest nVidia drivers for GeForce 9800M GTX/SLIe

    Is there a GPU memory leak perhaps?
    Does turning off OpenGL in the Performance Preferences and restarting Photoshop have any bearing on the issue?

  • Export in Premiere CS6 is very slow, but why?

    Hello,
    I work with a
    Intel i7 3770k @ 3.5 GHz
    16GB RAM
    GeForce GTX 560 TI
    2TB RAID-0
    In this project I did the color correction via After Effects and replaced the clips in the Premiere Pro timeline with AE Compositions after I edited them.
    Now when exporting it takes about 2,5 hours for a 12 minute video. The cpu only works on 22% and the ram on 35-40%
    That never happened before. A 12 min video took about 30 minutes to export and the cpu was at 100%. Why not now? Is that because of the links to the AE Compositions as it's the first time I work with these?
    How can I provide more cpu power to the exporting process?
    Thanks for any help.

    by the way... I am exporting h.264 1920x1080 with 13 Mbits/s

  • Difficulty scanning slides on my Epson V600  running Lion, Adobe Photoshop CS6,  and can no longer use the Epson scan application or the plug in for Photoshop. Should I revert back to leopard in my time machine to finish scanning my family slides?

    I am running Lion 10.7.5, Adobe Photoshop CS6, scanning slides on my Epson V600 and can no longer use the scan application or the plug in for Photoshop. Should I revert back to leopard in my time machine to finish scanning my family slides?
    In 10.7 there is not a twain that works with Photoshop for importing with all the options needed to scan transparencies. I noticed that when I was scanning in October 2012 I was still using CS6 so somehow I was managing to be able to use all the scan features.
    They sell 2nd party software (VieScan and Silverscript)which I found to be just mimially OK and very hard to use.
    I just want to scan like I used to.
    Can I use time machine to go back to an earlier operating sysytem LEOPARD,  and then do my scans and then save the photos and them go back to the LION system?
    I spent 7 hours trying crazy solutions - downloading Windows CS2 Photoshop and then using a program so I could run it on the apple. Then I couldn't figure out how to put a plug in for the scanner in the stupid windows Photoshop program. Googgling the computer like a mad woman trying to ask questions. I am not giving up...
    Please help if you can...
    Thanks...

    I assume you've tried using Image Capture. Give VueScan a try.

  • Photoshop CS6: are my expectations too high?

    Photoshop CS6 is very slow opening some files.
    I am using Windows 7 Pro 64 bit, an
    Intel Core i7-4770 CPU @ 3.40GHz,
    16 GB RAM
    2TB accelerated (via 32GB SSD) primary HDD (6gb Sata III) - OS and Photoshop on this drive
    120GB Samsung Evo 840 SSD dedicated for scratch disk usage - no files on it whatsoever
    The file I am using as a reference is a .psd file that is 166 MB in size. This file has many layers.
    When I have cache tile size set to 128k it opens in less than 6 seconds. At these settings the document size reads 24.1M/929.6M and efficiency shows 88%
    When I have Photoshop set to use 1024k cache tile size, opening this file takes a good 27-32 seconds. Document size shows 24.1M/4.45G and efficiency shows 30%! (scratch reads 18.4G/12.2G)
    First off, I admit that when I installed the dedicated SSD for a scratch disk I expected I would see an immediate improvement in operating speed of Photoshop and that this particular file would load quickly even if I had set the tile cache to 1024k. However, I see virtually no difference in opening this file from before when I had no dedicated SSD scratch disk.
    Are my expectations wrong on this count and if so why?
    Second, I can't get my head around the issue with setting the tile cache size to 1024 creating such a difference in file opening speed when compared with 128k as well as the reported doc size of 4.45G and 30% efficiency! 
    I thought for sure I'd never see my efficiency drop down much below 100% due to the fact that I have so much ram (i have set Photoshop to use up to 85%) and that I have this dedicated 120GB SSD scratch disk. Why is the efficiency so low when I have unleashed Photoshop to use all 120GB of the SSD and the Scratch size reads 18.4G/12.2G so it doesn't even appear as though it is using much of the SSD, yet my efficiency remains at 30%!?
    Are my expectations wrong here too, and if so, why?
    thanks

    Hi doctorhifi,
    I was able to download your file.
    Settings:  Cache Tile Size: 1028K (my normal setting)
    Dragging it from Explorer to Photoshop, the application opens and loads the file in 11 seconds.  At that point I'm presented with a dialog with a list of 9 missing fonts (not unexpected, every system is different).
    Just to get to the point where the dialog is presented, my Photoshop Temp scratch file grows to 27.4 GB.  System RAM usage (per Task Manager) reaches 17.9 GB.  Clicking through the missing font dialog and displaying the document causes RAM usage to go to 18.1 GB.
    Doing Image - Reveal All takes another 8 seconds and results in a very wide 11413 x 3365 pixel canvas to be shown, which is white and extends off to the right.  RAM usage is at this point up to 26.1 GB and the scratch file to reach 49.5 GB.
    Settings:  Cache Tile Size: 128K
    Dragging it from Explorer to Photoshop, the application opens and loads the file in 7 seconds.  At that point I'm presented with the missing font dialog.
    Just to get to the point where the dialog is presented, my Photoshop Temp scratch file grows to 4.5 GB.  System RAM usage (per Task Manager) grows to 9.0 GB.  Clicking through sees RAM usage to go to 9.2 GB.
    Doing Image - Reveal All takes another 5 seconds.  RAM usage is at this point up to 11.2 GB and the scratch file at 8.0 GB. 
    - Faster and with much smaller numbers than with the large cache tile size.
    It's pretty clear the smaller cache tile size is the better choice for working on documents similar to yours.  And I have to say, I'm surprised to see the system resource usage go up so much just with the larger cache tile size - that's not typical.  What IS pretty typical, however, is for Photoshop to chew through gigabytes like candy.  I believe the fact that the RAM usage is a bit higher than the amount you have is probably why it takes quite a lot longer to open on your system with the large cache tile size.
    I'll admit I don't know all the internal implications of the different cache tile sizes either, but Adobe DOES say that a "tall and thin" document will do better with the smaller choices.  "Tall" meaning lots of layers.
    I haven't looked your document over in detail yet to try to determine why it's quite so resource-intensive.   I see on a quick glance that it has some smart objects that have been transformed.  I wonder if something about having done that is causing some thrashing in the process of generating the final image.

  • Photoshop CS6 Suddenly Forgets It Is licensed

    Hello,
         I was running a copy of Photoshop CS6 as a demo on my mac.  I then purchased the program and installed it with the serial number it came with.  It worked fine. But just over a day ago I fired it up and rather than open up, it tells me my trial subscription is over and I have to install the serial number. I have only installed Photoshop CS6 on one computer. Why is my mac treating my copy of Photoshop CS6 like it has never been purchased or activated, and how do I fix the problem? 
    Thanks, Damon †

    I had this same problem earlier this week and it took me 20 minutes to convince online support that I did indeed have a genuine problem.  After I was transferred to the next level of support I was walked through the process of re-entering the serial number.  I did that and it worked fine, for 3 days, and then it forgot it was registered again.  The online support rep acknowledged this as a known bug but no ETA on correction was supplied.
    When you start up Photoshop, you will be presented with a window from the Adobe Application Manager that's titled "Photoshop Trial" and at the bottom right there are 2 buttons, click on the one labeled "License This Software" and you will be prompted  for the serial number.  After you enter the serial number, be certain to restart Photoshop.
    Hey Adobe, you broke my product, you have my money, how about fixing it ?

  • Why Photoshop and Illustrator CS6 are so slow on my MacBook Pro early 2011?

    First of all sorry for my english
    I recently installed Photoshop and Illustrator CS6 and they tend to lag even on just during normal work operations like zooming, opening a file, selecting a tool, browsing menus etc etc.
    Cpu, Ram and Gpu usage are normal, I mean when I use these software there's at list 85% of free Cpu, 1GB of Ram still available, and 80% of free GPU. And I got 30GB left on my hardrive which is little but I believe is enough.
    So I cannot believe this slow performance is due hardware limitations. There must be some driver issue or something else.
    Anyone knows why CS6 is so slow?
    Software version:
    Photoshop CS6 13.0.1
    Illustrator CS6 13.0.0
    My Specs:
    Os: Snow Leopard 10.6.8
    Cpu: Intel Core i7 2.3 GHz
    L2 Cache (per Core): 256 KB
    L3 Cache: 8 MB

    My experience is that Photoshop can demand and use prodigious amounts of memory and disk space, much more than one might expect from the size of the files being worked on. While I don't have direct experience with CS6, my daughter uses CS4 on a Macbook Air with 4 GB memory and she had 100 GB free (on a 250 GB solid state drive). CS4 is less demanding than CS6, and in fact with the SSD, it runs pretty well, even with just 4 GB memory (the solid state drive is basically like memory, in fact, in some ways). However after running Photoshop on some projects for a while, we noticed she had only 60 GB free disk space. After restarting her Mac, she had 100 GB free again. Photoshop CS4 was using up 40 GB of disk space! And this was simply editting some (multiple) photos from a digital camera. Photoshop not only has its own memory management processes, but it also pages to disk and uses disk space as "scratch space" in its own fashion. I think that it is inadvisable to run Photoshop with less than 100 GB free disk space, and that's with CS4, not even CS6. And if you don't have a solid state drive, the throughput might slow down immensely unless you have a lot of memory (I think someone else pointed this out already).
    Bottom line -- based on what I have seen with CS4, 4 GB memory is too low by at least a factor of x2 (16 GB memory would be even better), and I'd say a minimum of 100 GB free disk space is a must as well. I saw CS4 using more than 40 GB of "scratch disk space" and you are using CS6, which must use significantly more resources than CS4, and you indicate only 30 GB free space. That seems too low to me. I think other Adobe major software packages are similarly demanding, unlike any other software I have seen or used. For instance, I think you would have no trouble running MS-Office software (which is also known for using computer resources, but not anywhere as much as Adobe software).
    One thing you can do is when you notice things slowing down, not only quit all other software except for CS6, but also in the Finder, under the Go menu, enter
    /private/var
    under Go To Folder ...
    and then look in the folder called
    vm
    If you see swapfiles, add up the total space they are taking, and also the space taken by the sleepimage file. These are working to decrease the amount of free space you have and they can quickly grow to tens of GB when Photoshop and other Adobe softwares are running.
    Since it sounds like you have now upgraded your RAM, that should help, but you may find that the swapfiles and sleepimage files are taking even more disk apce faster and I think 100 GB free space is needed to avoid further slowdowns.
