Photoshop CS6 x64, Windows 8 64-bit and an error in my display driver

So I have 64-bit Windows 8, 64-bit Photoshop CS6 and an ATI Radeon HD 4770 GPU. When I go to the settings in PS, it tells me that there is a problem with my display driver so I cannot use GPU graphics processing. I would really like these features to be available to me, especially since my GPU meets the recommendations by Adobe. I installed the latest driver from AMD. What am I missing?

Might want to read this link about uninstalling driver  http://forums.adobe.com/thread/1142340?tstart=0

  • Installed Photoshop CS6 on Windows 8.1

    Installed Photoshop CS6 on Windows 8.1 and when I ask for updates I get a warning telling me the server is not available. I can receive updates on my desktop which is Windows 7.  Do I need an upgrade?

    no, you don't need an upgrade.

  • Bug? Can't Drag and Hold Mouse Photoshop CS6 on Windows 8 RP

    I am having a few problems with the current Photoshop CS6 on Windows 8RP.
    At first it was only the tilit shift and iris but it turns out it's everything to do with when you need to hold the mouse button and drag. It seems that the problem is isolated to Photoshop as other Adobe programmes are working fine plus other programmes and Windows generally is also fine.
    I am using an Nvidia GTX580 with Windows 7 drivers until the proper version comes which is late of course!
    Plus, I uninstalled my Intellipoint and keyboard drivers too and connected a generic mouse via USB and I still get the same problem.
    Weirdly though, every (let's say) 20 times I try to drag and hold after constantly restarting Photoshop it works once then I have to try again a load of times by restarting the application.
    Any ideas?

    I'm running photoshop cs6 on windows 8 RP 64 bits and haven't seen that problem
    and i didn't see that on the consumer preview either.
    This is the driver i'm using:
    http://www.nvidia.com/object/win8-64bit-296.17-preview-driver.html
    Just watch that windows update doesn't try to sneak in there own driver.
    It happened to me twice until i changed the automatic updates to notify
    and also watch that doesn't happen with your monitor profile as well.
    The updated Nvidia drivers for rp are supposed to be released sometime this coming week.
    Do you have any third party plugins or do you have the scriptlistener installed?
    Did you try resetting the photoshop preferences or difference modes under the Advanced setting for the the graphics processor under preferences>preformance in photoshop?

    Just purchased photoshop cs6 for windows and received installation disk.  Where do you find the serial number on the disk?  What should the serial number start with?  The disk was in the original box and I see a number that start with 910.....

  • How to set up EPSON Scan 3.07 to work in Adobe Photoshop CS6 Import window in Mac OS 10.9.4 Mavericks

    Photoshop CS6 will not allow me to scan pictures with my EPSON Perfection 2480 PHOTO scanner like it did when I used Photoshop CS2. Although I downloaded the newest driver (EPSON Scan 3.07A), and placed it's plugin directly into Photoshop CS6 Plug-ins Folder, it is still not showing up in the Import/ Import Images from Device menu option. Is there a way to get this to work? Granted, I am able to use EPSON Scan outside of Photoshop, but I'd rather just scan while in Photoshop CS6. (I am using on a Mac using OS X version 10.9.4 Mavericks.)

    Definitely read this article: Get your scanner to work with Photoshop CS6 | Macworld
    More than likely your Twain driver is 32-bit and Photoshop CS6 is pure 64-bit. So you should look at the ideas in this article.

  • I am trying to save a photoshop CS6 psd file to jpg and get an option jpg, jpg2000 or jpg stereo, I choose jpg and then Mac 256 colours, normal or interlaced.  I just want regular jpg with a high resolution.  What am I doing wrong, never had this problem

    I am trying to save a photoshop CS6 psd file to jpg and get an option jpg, jpg2000 or jpg stereo, I choose jpg and then Mac 256 colours, normal or interlaced.  I just want regular jpg with a high resolution.  What am I doing wrong?  , never had this problem before.  Help!!! 

    Your description of the issue is not clear:
    What format, bit depth and color was your original file "from the net"?  It sounds like it was a Color Indexed GIF, which would cause what you are describing.
    In the Macintosh Finder, select said "net image" and do a Get Info on it (Command+i). When the Info box appears in the Finder, take a screen shot and upload it here by using the little camera icon in the Reply Editor in the forum's web interface.
    If the image is a 256-color GIF, remember the rule:  GIGO = garbage in, garbage out.

  • Is my boxed Photoshop CS6 for Windows good for Mac as well?

    No.  You have to call up and do a platform swap:

    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...
