Photoshop Touch seems corrupted on ICS Motorola XYBOARD 8.2: Bad Screen Flicker

Hi Adobe,
I've checked all the other Adobe apps after receiving a new tablet after a theft and reinstalling all my apps. Photoshop Touch, updated in Sept. 2012, which I've uninstalled and reinstalled again, acts very strange; as soon as you try and load a project or import a file from a local folder the screen starts flickering badly and you basically are unable to choose a file from either the local disk, Creative Cloud, Google, etc. If you start a new project the flicker does go away, but if you try again to import an image, the same thing happens, which basically, for now at least, renders Photoshop Touch for me at least, unusable.
I was kind of expecting to see other people posting about this but haven't seen it which might indicate it's specific to this tablet, which would be really sad.
Anyway, if someone could comment on whether they've heard of this elsewhere or not, and if so, whether there might be a potential fix at some point, I'd appreciate it. Again my other Touch apps, Ideas, Kuler and Collage have no problems like this.
Best,
Mark

Hi Mark,
there are other users that have reported the same issue in other threads in the forum.

It seems to be a Xyboard/Xoom2 only issue at the moment.
We are working on finding a solution for this problem.

  • Can i upload photos to the adobe creative cloud so i can access them in photoshop touch?

    using photoshop touch on my android tablet (motorola xoom), i can't seem to directly access photos located in various folders on the tablet, on my pc, or on my mac.  if i upload photos to the adobe creative cloud, can i then bring them from the creative cloud into photoshop touch on the tablet?  if so, how do i upload photos to the creative cloud?  thanks.

    thanks, dave ... your demo is what I needed ... much appreciated.
    however, if i try to upload to the creative cloud using a motorola xoom,
    there seems to be a very limited number of folder/file choices/locations
    from which i can perform the upload, whereas if i attempt the same action
    by accessing the creative cloud site via a pc browser, i seem to have
    access to all of the pc's folders & files.
    specifically, if i attempt to upload from the xoom, here are the choices
    provided ...
    - Camera
    - Camcorder
    - Sound Recorder
    - ASTRO
    - Bluetooth File Transfer
    - ES File Explorer
    - Gallery
    - QuickPic
    - Select music track
    ... of course some of these are android apps i've installed onto the xoom
    ... but are you aware of any reasons for this limitation, and whether this
    set of choices can be modified (either via photoshop touch or the creative
    cloud or the xoom)? for example, i use dropbox on all my devices (pc, mac,
    droid, & xoom), & it's my preferred location for many pics ... i'd like to
    be able to upload from dropbox to the creative cloud using photoshop touch
    on the xoom ... do you know whether this is possible, and if so, how to do
    so?
    again, many thanks!

  • Photoshop Touch on XYBOARD Tablet

    I just downloaded Photoshop Touch and was excited to start using it and all I can get it to do is flicker my screen and freeze the program.  I am able to exit the program and use other things on the tablet without a problem.   I have the 10.1 16GB Motorola XYBOARD tablet.

    Sorry to get back late but what you can do to add a second layer is to first make sure Adobe is not open then goto the Android gallery select a photo than click on edit photo you should see programs that allow for photo editing select PS from the list,, Touch should open ,,, from here just use the the select pixel tools to,,, select  the entire photo or just small section of the photo then hit  the menu and click on copy ,,,once complete just exit touch , then open the Adobe Touch app back up select the photo your working  this should already be  listed on the screen  once the photo opens  just add a second layer then click on the menu and the paste should be highlighted,,, click on it and the photo should paste into the second layer...
    Thanks

  • How can you get Adobe Photoshop Touch to open on an Android 4.1 Jellybean RCA Tablet

    I am trying to help a friend of mine.  Silverday posted " I successfully purchased, downloaded Photoshop touch on my android jellybean 4.1 RCA tablet, but it freezes every time at the start up screen! How do I fix this so I can actually use Photoshop? I have tried un/installing, force stop, turning on and off my tablet....nothing seems to be working! My android fits the requirements, so why isn't this working?!"  Has anybody run across this situation.  I am very computer literate but am not familiar with the Photoshop Touch app.   Thanks...

    How much storage do you have left on that 64GB SSD? 4GB ram is fairly comfortable (if you're doing absolutely nothing else) while using Flash. The paired down tablet specs are most certainly crimping the performance.
    You have to know apps like Photoshop may let you brush but the application is primarily a bitmap engine which operates at memory speed and certainly has no overhead from being a multimedia, scriptable IDE. As you pile up dozens of layers, especially with vectors and filters, Photoshop will also start to lag just the same.
    You have to keep in mind, you really have a tablet. The i5 1.6GHz is not a normal i5, it's a mobile i5 product. I have an i5 quad also (2500k), but the desktop model (Sandy/Ivy) runs at 3.7GHz in turbo, and that's an old model (Sandy). Also the desktop i5 has Intel HD4000 graphics which is extremely slow (outside simple video playback) and your i5 is even slower, only Intel HD3000 graphics. Clearly there's a big difference and you should expect tablet performance. 
    Just about the only thing you can do to increase performance, especially in a vector heavy app, is reduce any other things going on. Slim out your OS as best you can, removing any unnecessary apps or services running. Update all your drivers and if you're not using WHQL drivers for the HD3000 on your display driver you should revert back to Win7 for fully supported drivers (which is the version of Windows I think the Slate originally came with). Unless something is corrupt or no WHQL driver support exists for HD3000, I don't see what else it can be besides perhaps no WHQL support for your input driver either. 
    I'm on a 5 year old Dell touchscreen laptop at a higher resolution (1600x900) running an old i7 @ 1.6GHz quad (similar to yours) with 4GB DDR2 (slower) and Flash runs perfectly fine. Although I'm not running Intel HD graphics. I'm running it on a discreet ATI Mobility Radeon HD.

    Hi,
    I'm sorry to hear that you are experiencing issues. Which tablet is it exactly that you are using?
    Which Android version do you have on it?
    It would be good if you could give us a screen shot of what you are seeing.
    Would it be possible for you to share the file that you cannot open?
    You could send it to me privately.
    Could you also please let us know what you were doing before the file got corrupted?
    From which version did you upgrade by the way?
    Thanks,

  • Adobe Photoshop Touch Question / Issue

    Hello,
    I bought Adobe Photoshop Touch some time ago for my Samsung Galaxy Tab 8.9 and I liked it so much. Of all the apps I had for photo editing, this one gave me all I need. I used to own Adobe Photoshop CS2 on my old PC so I wanted something for my tab as well. I was very satisfied by this app until my tab died some time ago. After a pain of service and repairs, the tab worked again but it had a new issue. Anytime I used the device on something more demanding (i.e. playing games ) the tab overheated a lot and the screen started to touch itself very much as, if it was pressed all the time. After some time of struggle with it I decided to wipe it clean and pass it out to a family member who would maybe dedicate more time to fix it.
    Last month I bought myself a new device ( Sony Xperia Z ) and I was eager to get all my data on it and apps of course. To my sadness Adobe Photoshop Touch is not compatible with my device now, and it just sits there in my app list doing nothing . I could install only Photoshop Express but it does not give me the full access I had with Touch. I saw that there is another product called Photoshop Touch for smartphones and it seems to be the same as what I had only phone edition.
    My problem is that I can not get this new app unless I pay for it and I do not wish to do that because I already paid for the previous edition.
    My question is: Can I somehow obtain the Smartphone edition and the previous version ( which apparently is for tablets I suppose ) be removed from my Google Play account. I would purchase the smartphone version but there is no point in having 1 app 2 times.
    I would happily like the staff to remove my previous version from my account if they would gave me the smartphone version and I acknowledge that the tab app was more expensive than the smartphone version and Adobe will not refund me the money difference nor are they obligated to give me the smartphone version. I am just asking if it would be possible because I like that app and it's such a shame for it to be in my app list and not be used. Thank you for your time in reading this and no matter what answer I get, I will be ok with it. Have a nice day .

    I don't think you'll have much luck. PS Touch for tablets was designed for just tablets; PS Touch for phones was designed for just phones. Touch for phones came out a little later than Touch for tablets. (By several months, if I recall.) On the brighter side, if you ended up buying Touch for phones, you'd be covered no matter which device you had.
    Both are very similar in function. I believe the only differences are their UIs; Touch for tablets is landscape-oriented-specific while Touch for phones is portrait-oriented. (Some elements are also placed differently.) I imagine this allows for maximum utilization of screen real estate and element placement.

  • Can I open a CS6 Photoshop file in Adobe Photoshop Touch for Phone?

    I am trying to rountrip a ps file to/from Adobe Photoshop Touch for Phone to/from CS6 Photoshop on a mac. Is it possible? It seems (so far) I can create a .psdx on the phone and edit on my desktop, but once editing in CS6 PS, I can't get that file back on the phone for editing. Any ideas... or is it a one way street from phone to desktop right now? thx!!!

    Hi there,
    In general, the .psd format is fairly backwards compatible. To help get your files ready to be opened in CS3, follow this process:
    1) Go to Photoshop > Preferences > File Handling.
    2) In the menu, make sure Maximize PSD and PSB File Compatibility is set to always.
    Just in case, you may also want to save your file as a .TIFF, which is a format that will also preserve your layers and is able to be opened in older versions.
    Please let us know if you need any more information, and good luck with your project!

  • Help for purchasing photoshop touch

    I have recently become really interested in photo editing and projects. I was browsing the Apple App Store and came across photoshop touch, a perfect way to get my feet wet. I immediately tried purchase it, yet informed me I had to have a flash on my phone to buy it. I have an iPod touch 4th gen because I prefer a simple phone for use as one. If I were to use photoshop I would not be using iPod shots but rather Nikon shots so this no-flash absurdity would not apply to me. If it is a hardware issue I have no problem with it but if it is not than hopefully it can be adjusted to a warning or something. Thank you for taking the time to read this. I am sure you are eager to extend photoshop touch to as many as possible so hopefully this was just an overlook and can be adjusted in the future. Thanks again.
    Sincerely,
    Jeff

    Firstly, thank you for such a speedy and quick reply. Secondly, I'm very sorry as I know realize how unclear I was. The error message refers to camera flash, not Adobe Flash. This is why it seemed very strange to me and why I was so curious about the requirement. It is purchase able with an IPhone, just not with my iPod touch 4G which does have a camera flash. Thanks for the reply and sorry for the misunderstanding.

  • Accessing multiple PSD layers in Adobe Photoshop Touch from Creative Cloud is important to me.

    Accessing multiple PSD layers in Adobe Photoshop Touch from Creative Cloud is important to me. When will Touch be updated with this function? Want the ability to view multiple layers the same way Creative Cloud website can. Having the ability to turn multiple layers on an off in Touch from and uploaded PSD file. As it stand Touch flattens imported Layered PSD files. (Not very useful)

    Hi Bford225,
    I moved your post over to the Photoshop Touch forum because it seemed mostly about Photoshop Touch.
    Currently, I'd recommend converting RAW images to Jpeg in either Photoshop or Lightroom and then uploading them to Creative Cloud for working with them in Photoshop Touch. I know raw support is something our developers are considering so please add your vote here:
    http://forums.adobe.com/ideas/1227
    How you best incorporate Photoshop Touch into your workflow is hard to say. What works best for one person may not be true for everyone. Photoshop Touch obviously doesn't have all the capabilities of its desktop counterpart but it does have the ease of use and portability of being on a tablet. Personally, I like using Photoshop Touch for editing images taken with the iPad or my iPhone for convience versus transferring to transfer to the computer, or even if I still do, I can do some of the initial edits from the tablet first. Its nice when I only have the tablet available and not a computer. For images I take with my DSLR I always do my editing in Photoshop and Lightroom. I'm able to make any adjustments on the computer much faster than on a tablet.
    If you have the option to shoot in both Jpeg and RAW that might be good option (best of both worlds). Do you have the ability to import images from the camera without using a computer - using a camera connectivity kit or something like that? My recommendation would be expermentation, test out different workflows on the tablet and see how you like it and find what works best for you.

  • Adobe Photoshop Touch for HTC EVO View 4G ?

    Hello, I was really excited to use the Adobe Photoshop Touch App for my Android Device. I purchased the HTC EVO View 4G for Sprint and I tried to find the App but I does not seem to be compatible with my device! This is a HUGE disappointment :(. I believe it is not compatible because #1 the screen resolution is 1024 x 600 and #2 a screen size of 7". I chose this device because it has the best specifications in its portable size, not to mention the pressure sensitive stylus . Please don't leave this category out! I need this app hahah, but seriously.
    Will Adobe ever make the Adobe Photoshop Touch App available for the HTC EVO View 4G?

    Hi AFlo00,

  • Photo's not syncing between Elements 12 and Photoshop Touch ------ revel or creative cloud - very confusing

    I have photoshop elements 12 (updated to 12.1) And i use Photoshop Touch (version 1.6.1) for my Galaxy tab, (which is stock - un-rooted)
    I know when i first installed it, any photos i dragged into mobile albums showed up in my Photoshop Touch app.
    Now something seems to have changed. The app only has import images via local/creative cloud/camera/google/facebook.
    I know Elements 12 is uploading them to Revel, because i can see them online in my Revel Account.
    I've installed the Revel app to my tab, and the photos are there.
    So if the photos are in the cloud and my Revel app see's them, why are they not showing up in my Photoshop app.
    And why is there a creative cloud import option, but no revel import option.
    Can someone explain the difference between CreativeCloud and Revel....
    All i want to do is edit a few images every now and then on my Tab. but PLEASE how do i get it working again?

    If I remember correctly, Revel is a different service than Creative Cloud, hence the confusion. And if I also remember, Revel was around before Creative Cloud and PS Touch. Revel seemed more or less to be aimed at consumers whereas Creative Cloud is more or less aimed at professionals.
    Creative Cloud is free (up to 2 GB; most of the Creative Cloud subs provide an additional 18 GB for a total of 20 GB).

  • Why won't photoshop touch 1.4.1 open on the archos 97 carbon tablet?

    I can't get photoshop touch 1.4.1 to open on my archos 97 carbon tablet - can anyone help with this please? I have tried downloading it several times - most of the time it just goes to a black screen. Google play listed it as compatable with the archos 97 carbon and there is enough memory available so i can't figure out what the problem is.

    Hi Guido,
    We have tried to upload photoshop through the computer, but the result is just the same. It seems to download o.k. with the icon appearing in with the other icons. When selected it pulls up the photoshop logo screen after about 6 seconds, (but only on the first attempt, after that you have to clear the data for it to do even this.) It then pulls up 'end user accept/decline'. When you touch the accept button it displays 'help us improve our products' and at the bottom of the page and a double image of the license/online privacy allow/don't allow also appears. When you touch to accept 'help us improve our products' the 'begin a tutorial /project' appears. When you touch either of these the screen goes black and stays black.
    Hope this helps you sort it out

  • Is there a tool that works like 'Liquify' for Photoshop Touch on Ipad

    I always use photoshop on my PC and i am thinking of getting an IPAD.
    Photoshop Touch looks good but there a few tools that i cant find much info about online, so please help of you can.
    I would like to use it for fashion and beauty images so i need to do the following things......
    Make bodies slimmer/wider (i usually use liquify/bloat/shrink for this, im worried that if i use 'warp' it will look gimmiky and too extreme but i still want it to look quite natural.
    Make skin texture smoother manually (like blur tool)
    Make eyes and teeth whiter manually (to look natural not gimmiky)
    Please help if you can and let me know what tools i can use for this in Photoshop Touch on IPAD.
    Thankyou

    There is a blur tool in PS Touch. You can also use the dodge or burn effect via the paint tool. (Instead of painting with a color, you "paint" the effect, which can be customized to your liking. In addition to dodge/burn, there are also a bevy of other adjustments and effects to paint with, like saturation and brightness.)
    There is a warp tool. Not sure if it would be the right tool for the job but it doesn't seem gimmicky to me from what I've tried (mostly corrections in perspective).
    If you know anyone with an iPad or Android tablet and they have PS Touch, ask to see it.

  • Unable to log into Facebook from Photoshop Touch

    Hi,
    I'm running a Samsung Galaxy Tab 10,1 and everytime I try to load a facebook photo the app shows a big white screen with "success" at the top. I've followed the other trouble shooting threads and have dumped the browser cache as well as cleared the PS Touch permissions in fb...HELP!

    HI Ken,
    I have a Galaxy Tab 10.1 and was curious about the behavior you described. I tested posting to Facebook myself. I just used the tutorial project with the old truck. I didn't see a white screen or anything about success at the top. It may have happend and I missed it. Seemed to work okay for me though, just ended up with the picture on Facebook with the "Posted from Photoshop Touch" message at the top. Just for comparititive testing it might be interesting to see if you get the same result if you try to post one of the tutorial files also, like the old truck. Might also be interesting to test posting the image you were having difficulties with in PS Touch from the Facebook app on the tablet itself.

  • Photoshop Touch 1.6 update requires smoothing.

    HI all,
    I have been a user of Photoshop Touch since the start and have got every update as they have become available.
    The new 1.6 (1.2 for phones) update looks to be an awesome update to the excellent app.
    However after using now for a couple of days I am starting to see that it does have its bugs.
    This may sound like a big long moan, but its not. I still think that the update is excellent and the app in general the app is very very good an used everyday, but feel that some items in the update do need addressing.
    The Brush Engine
    The new enhancements to the brush I believe are excellent, and what was needed. Although I find that after the update the Hardness slider does not really do much. You can have it on 1% or 100% and you only get a little bit of softness unlike before when you could see a true difference between a soft brush and a hard brush.
    I also feel that the spacing slider does not work correctly. Once you have altered the spacing when you make a stoke I find that the start of the brush seems clustered, before the spacing kicks in.
    Quick Selection tool
    In general (and my own opinion) there was already many different methods of selecting inside Photoshop Touch, so the Quick Selection tool was not really needed. However I have tried the new tool out  and found that it doesn't work.
    When you paint on a object to select it, it does not paint, so you don't know what your selecting. You can alter brush settings, but what is the point when you can't see what your selecting. Very disappointing. This could be a good tool if it worked correctly.
    On the whole the update is good with some nice ideas although a bit of smoothing need I think (1.6.1???).
    I have read that other users are having other problems with syncing, exporting and even installing ( I'm using a Note 10.1 2014 edition, and so far fingers crossed have not had these problems)so I believe  a bug fix may be needed.

    The brush hardness slider not affecting much is a known issue.
    It does seem kind of weird that the Quick Selection Tool doesn't show a selection as you're painting like it does in desktop Photoshop. Might have been a design hurdle they had to address. It at least shows the cursor.
