Photoshop's 3D features are iffy (On and Off)

I have an HD Intel Graphics Card, 1696MB, OpenGL 2.1
For some reason the 3D Features in both Photoshop CS5 Ext and CS6 Ext have been on and off. The features would work well for a few days and then at random, all the options in the 3D menu will be greyed out. when this happens, its the same for both CS5 and 6. I've been told that i have a more than compatible Video card.
Please help me with my situation. ask me anything you need to know

Update your graphics driver, if that's possible. If it's a desktop computer, the smart thing to do would be to buy a dedicated NVidia or AMD card and turn off the intel stuff. Even the cheapest ones wil lbe better than that nightmare. Otherwise there's nothing you can do.

    hello..when I download attachments from any email..iPages opens and says some features are not supported and cuts out photos and lengthens my attachments

    What format are the attachments? If Pages will not display them properly you will need an application that does. Pages usually opens word documents but can give problems at times, if they are MS Word documents, try Libre Office or failing that you may have to purchase MS Word for Mac, maybe you will need to buy the complete Office suite.
    The other possiblity is that you already have a suitable application and Pages is loading the file by default, if so change the default application to open that file type.

  • Photoshop CS6 3D Features Are Unselectable

    Hello one and all.
    I have just installed Photoshop CS6 and I found a video tutorial on Youtube to educate me how to use the new 3D fearures for the text option. I followed them to the instructions online but when I went to select the 3D option, all the options in that dropdown list were 'greyed out' and unselectable.
    I now do not know whether I have installed something incorrectly or whether my computer is just not able to make use of the 3D features because of it's age and/or system setup. Below is a screengrab of what my system settings are.
    If anyone is able to provide me with any definite answers to this problem, I would be very greatful. If it turns out to be the latter, and I am unable to make use of the 3D features because of the system I have, then I don't mind, as long as I know for definite one way or the other. It's the not knowing that's bugging me the most, haha!
    Thank you for taking time to read this and hopefully providing me with some answers.

    I'm very sorry to say that Windows 8 is likely going to disappoint you.  I've been involved with the beta testing and the things Microsoft has done to Windows are obscene in this version.  For example, they've removed all the Aero styles so that everything is plain and flat.  They clearly don't want people working on the desktop, but rather in their brave new single app per screen mode that was formerly called "Metro".
    This is what applications on the desktop look like now:
    Most people think Windows 3.1 looked better than this. 
    That's just look and feel.  There are a lot of features removed in Windows 8 as well.  Notice that there's no Start button, for example.

  • HT203521 iPhone 6+ calendar issue - the dates that have events are "flashing" on and off.  How can I get it to stop?

    On my Calendar - any dates that has an event 'dot' it flashes/blinks.  Any idea why?  It is like it is trying to show that it is updating but it has been doing it for a week now.  I have it set to show all Calendars (iCloud and Hotmail).

    This is Relate to the CALDAV service of Hotmail changing to Outlook and updating their CalDav Services witch may Lag sometimes and cause the error you are having, for you to solve this
    Settings > Mail, Contacts & Calendars > Accounts Outlook, Disable the Calendar service Hard Reset the iPhone and enable it again that should fix the issue
    Provide a feedback if this solved the issue

  • Desktop and taskbar at top are flashing on and off

    Hi
    Updating stuffit and comp went crazy. I can only type between flashing. Tried rebooting. I'm stuck.Help

    I'll bet anything the problem is StuffIt. Take a look in these folders when you are booted from your clone:
    "/Users/yourname/Library/Contextual Menu Items"
    "/Library/Contextual Menu Items"
    Look for anything from StuffIt and move it out of the folders. Try rebooting, for safety's sake if Magic Menu is enabled, remove it as well (I think you can Command drag it off of the menu bar, and remove it from your Accounts/Login Items).
    Stuffit is so ill-behaved so often I've decided to ban it from my machine.

  • Since downloading itunes 10 my ipod's features are messed up.  Currently I'm looking to delete apps.  They no longer appear on left side of itunes screen.  I try to click on apps on top of screen but apps are in a shadow mode and I can't click on them.

    Since downloading itunes 10 my ipod's features are messed up and many do not now work.  Currently my problem is I want to delete some apps.  It no longer shows on the left side of itunes.  When I click on apps at the top, the apps appear shadowed and i cannot click on them.  If I check the box to sync them it says I will lose what's on my ipod and the things in my library will replace them.  What should I do?

    If you are completely confident that you didn't hide it, then you purchased those with different apple id. If you completely confident that you purchases with same apple id then you have hidden it. One of the other or you are speaking about a miracle. While miracles are possible they are not very likely.

  • HT3820 once registered, the "pro" features are not turned on even though the "Pro" appears on the Quicktime icon.

    After downloading quicktime 7, I entered the registration code. The "pro" appeared on the quicktime logo and the "buy QT Pro" button went away however the pro features are not "on" or usable.

    Did you open/load a file to the app? The "Pro" features are context adaptive and only "turn on" if content is both available and the feature can be applied to the particular type of content loaded.

  • Controlled outlets going on and off on APC Battery Backup UPS 1080

    This may be a strange place to report this issue (I have posted it in the APC forums) but I am wondering if anyone here has an idea.... because the behavior seems indicative of my iMac cycle awake and asleep again.
    I have a  Backup UPS NS 1080 made by APC. There is some strange behavior with the controlled outlets since I have upgraded to Mac OSX Yosemite. I have set the threshold repeatedly (twice with the tutelage of APC support folks on the phone). The second time we plugged a floor lamp into the controlled outlet and it went on and off repeatedly after we set the threshold. I have set the threshold both with the computer (a late 2013 iMac)  asleep and turned off. Yet, nothing seems to work. APC thought perhaps the unit was faulty and replaced it, but the problem persists with the new unit... computer asleep and the controlled outlet(s) are going on and off. Only a problem because I have the computer speakers plugged into one of the controlled outlets and I can hear the subwoofer loudly "pop" when it turns on and off while the computer is asleep... a pain.
    Any ideas how to resolve this?
    Thanks.

    You could overload the circuit, but your MP has 865W PSU and needs more 1200VA or above.
    Don't overload a circuit, and don't have an A/C or your fridge on the circuit. Not sure what you can do or get an extension cord designed for window air conditioner (15A , flat, grounded, and very heavy duty).
    Take a look at APC knowledge base perhaps. Or put the fridge on a line conditioner??? more to keep any noise or to reduce the effect of its power cycling. Old? new? check it with one of those Kill-A-Watt devices and see what is pulls.
    Take a look and there are excellent threads on UPS all the time. Yes, you need to upgrade to APC's RS1500VA or you could go with the LCD RS1300VA.
    Personally, I have an older XS1500 for peripherals that use to handle my G4, and RS1500 that handles MP and monitor, router. Both are on a new circuit but using two plugs on same outlet, but nothing else on this circuit.
    Oh, and audio and such... keeping RFI and noise should be essential, no?

    Hi. After loading a picture into Photoshop some of the menu tools are greyed out and I cannot use the keyboard short cuts, for instance I cannot use Ctrl + T for free transform, how do I resolve this problem. In addition the tool Icons are so small I have to get close to the screen to see them, is there anyway the Icons can be made bigger without reducing the resolution of the screen.
    Thanks
    Derek

    Are you working on a background layer? If so, Ctrl + T will not work. Press Alt and double-click your background layer to convert to a normal layer (or right-click BG layer and select Layer from Background) and try again.
    If you're working in Photoshop CC 2014 you can go to Preferences > Experimental Features and tick "Scale UI 200% for high-density displays" to make your buttons and icons larger.

  • Camera Raw 8 the same cropping choices as are in Lightroom and Photoshop?

    Seriously, how hard would it be to give Camera Raw 8 the same cropping choices as are in Lightroom and Photoshop (i.e., Fibonacci, Triangle, Diagonal, etc.)? This disparity in features is inexcusable and embarrassing. Surely the teams communicate?

    I don't have CC nor LR.  Just be sure you are comparing apples to apples
    That is a nice statement for a Windows guy…
    I never use crop in ACR because I like this feature more in PS itself. Also the inability to save crop presets in ACR makes it very limited. The ACR engine for PS and LR are the same, the body differs.
    Thanks to hard yelling people we now have about the same crop tool in PS as in LR. Although I still don't like it in PS, after having used it years and years I now have to move the image instead of the crop.
    Sadly the ability to rotate crop and having adjust it automatically to the borders is a very nice option. If it wasn't for this I would stay with the old classic mode.
    But the OP is right, many features in different Adobe Products have somewhat the same result but sometimes very different approaches, options and tools.
    Until the Adobe HQ is going to settle in Utopia we might be better off trying to learn living with it

    I have Adobe Photoshop Elements 10 plus I create PDF files for work some are scan pdf docs. When I install Photoshop Elements 10 it DOES convert all the PDF files to Photoshop Elements-10 Docs. it even changes and shows the PSE-10 Icon. So I am alway installing PSE-10 or uninstalling it. If I send the  PDF file that has been automatically converted to a PSE-10 the person I send the file to can not open it because they do not have PSE-10. What can I do to stop PSE-10 from converting my PDF files? Don't tell me to upgrade PSE-10 I tried their on-line program and  it is too advance for a hobby photographer like myself and their Help Desk is impossible to reach.

    Unfortunately, only adobe can help you with that, as most people here are just posters such as your self and don't work for adobe.
    If you go here and use the Chat now button (bottom of page), they should get you up and running by resetting your activations.

    Hi
    I have a problem with color prints from photoshop elements 12. The pictures are too light and with strange colors. I have a Canon pixma mg615I0 printer and use mac os X yosemite. The pictures are taken with a coanon eos 550d in the color space sRGB. I have followed adobes recommendations and have tried both letting the printer respektive photoshop manage the colors. But nothing works. I see that there are different opinions about which is best to do so I tried both. I have the latest printer driver installed. Can anyone help me with this?

    Do the following:
    Print a test page from the printer. Perhaps the print head needs cleaning via its maintenance facility.
    Let the printer manage colors, not PSE
    Calibrate the monitor
