Pressure sensitivity on X230T and trouble with Photoshop

Would anyone know how many levels of pressure sensitivity there are on the X230T?
I ask this because I have just installed Photoshop CS6 and I seem to have many issues sketching. I will be drawwing a series of light lines and then suddenly a big fat line will appear, I will continue sketching and this will happen over and over again.
I am very frustrated since I bought this specifically for Photoshop. Does anyone know why this is happening? I already turned off the "hold pen down to right click" feature, but I continue to have this issue.
Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Maybe this could help:

In this 256 levels of pressure sensitivity are mentioned (which would make sense, because it would point to an 8bit ADC in the digitzer for pressure measurement).
If you don't trust this number (as I would do, because it is mentioned only in one occasion in the web (or google search ;-) )) then you could also check the Wacom site for their more low end products and their specs.
Using x230t (i5-3320M, 8GB RAM, 256GB SSD, 80GB mSata-SSD) and loving it!

Trouble with Photoshop Cs6

Having trouble with Photoshop cs6. Brushes that i have downloaded from 3rd party websites were deleted from Photoshop after months of use. We replaced all the brushes 1 by 1 but now there is an extreme lag in almost every function in photoshop that i had never experienced before. Dont know what is going wrong.

what error message(s) you receive,
if having issues opening raw files also the exact camera make and model that generated them,
if you're having printing issues, indicate the exact make and model of your printer, paper size, image dimensions in pixels (so many pixels wide by so many pixels high). if going through a RIP, specify that too.
etc.,
someone may be able to help you (not necessarily this poster, who is not a Windows user).

Anyone having trouble with Photoshop CS6 with Intuos3?

I've been using CS6 since just after the Beta was released and I like many of the new features. I would probably love the software if not for one huge problem I'm having... no pressure sensitivity with my Intuos3.
My Intuos3 works fine with CS2 and CS3 but not with CS6. I even unistalled all versions of Photoshop except for CS6 in case there was some sort of conflict going on but still no pressure sensitivity. Reinstalled CS3 and it works fine in that application, and still not in CS6.
Does anyone else have this issue? I believe it must be a CS6 issue and not an Intuos3 issue for the fact that my tablet works just fine with previous versions of Photoshop.

No, Wacom tablets are working fine for most people.
Those who've had trouble found that updating the driver or reinstalling the driver solved the problem.
If you continue to have trouble, you probably want to contact Wacom and have them help you troubleshoot the driver.

Thanking you in advance for any help.

Celentano I am sorry but what is the exact error you are receiving when trying to install Photoshop Elements 8? Also which operating system are you installing it on?

Trouble with photoshop(cs4) manages colours

Hello there. I have callibrated my printer, and have callibrated my monitor monthly over the three months since I purchased my Color Munki. I have set up a printer profile that I want to use. I have CS4 and using a "two up view" for soft- proofing, the copy to be printed (on screen) was at first rather dull with a green cast and with blacks greyed off compared to the master copy and very difficult to match the master even closely. The prints were passable after a lot of fiddling but not as good as I had hoped even compared to prints I produced before I used my own printer- paper profile .. However recently the prints have got even worse. They are really, really dark when printed even though they dont look so on screen.They also still have the colour cast etc. I have been selecting "no color management' in the printer dialogue along with the printer- paper profile. I have had to resort to using "Printer manages colour" and a generic printer paper profile again as I used to do. I am getting far better prints with good colour matches this way so it would seem that there is nothing wrong with the printer. I have concluded that it must be a problem with the colour management in my CS4 Photoshop. I have an Epson Stylus photo 1410 printer, a Dell flat screen U2410 monitor and a nikon D90 camera. I feel so disappointed after forking out for the Color Munki etc hoping to get really top class prints. .I would really appreciate some advice.

You have to make sure you have configured everything to work together - i.e., to make the printer driver expect that Photoshop is going to do the color transform.
However, there were some posts last year implying people with Epson printers were seeing "double profiling" - meaning somehow two color transforms were being invoked, and they couldn't turn the behavior off. I think at least some people just broke down and bought new printers, as Epson apparently would not fix the drivers to work properly with Photoshop CS5.
I don't know whether yours might fall under the same issue, but you could double check with Epson.com and see if there have been any newer drivers released for your model.

I'am having trouble with Photoshop Elements 12

In Photo Elements 12 I can open the organizer but not the Editor. I am afraid that if I uninstall and install again I will loose what I have edited on certain photos. Please help, I need to edit a few pictures and I can't do so. Once I open it,
it says Photoshop Elements 12 Editor has stopped working, then Windows starts looking for a solution for the problem, at the end it says, " A problem caused the program to stop working correctly. Windows will close the program and notify you if a solution is available." I hit the close program button and it just closes all out. HELP PLEASE!

Still having trouble with Photoshop CC

Hi,
I've continuing to have problem painting in Photoshop, and was wondering if anyone else was encountering the same problem. The issue is not so much a brush lag
as it is a spilt second freeze/stall just before a brush stroke. It doesn't happen continuously, just every few minutes and primarily on thin lines (5-10 pixels) on higher Opacity.
It's very distracting. I'm tried all manner of different things after having gone through forum posts (Photoshop preferences, Wacom driver updates, raising and lowering performance).
Unfortunately nothing seems to remove this momentary freeze. At this stage I can't tell whether it's an issue with Photoshop, the Wacom (an Intros 4), or my iMac. Everything put the Wacom
was purchased within the last two years.
Any thoughts or suggestions would be greatly appreciated.
thank you,
Dave

My Intros 4 is close to five years old, and I'm wondering if it's age is the problem. Overall, Photoshop/Wacom work but it just seems to freeze/delay when I either use a fine pixel size, or go to another section of the screen to paint. I've had an issue like this in any Photoshop version I've run. It began with Photoshop CC and I've not found a solution yet. I feel like i've tried everything but purchase a new Wacom.

X-Fi Xtereme Music mode switching and troubles with channels redirection

Good Day.
I have bought a X-Fi sound card and now I have troubles with my speaker system. I have analog stereo system and headphones, I connect them using my amplifier. All cables are connected properly.
When I use entertainment mode there are no problems with speaker system if 2.0/2.1 is set. But if I set headphones channels become redirected: left becomes right and right becomes left.
When i use game mode channels are redirected both in 2.0/2.1 and headphones modes.
If I connect my headphones to sound card directly there are no problems excepting entertainment mode 2.0/2.1 when channels are redirected.
Please halp me to resolve the problem.
Thank you.

Don`t care. I have found the way. Now all clear.:smileyvery-happy:

Trouble with Photoshop CC 3D and Lighting Effects errors

I can not use Lighting Effects and 3D because of these errors keep appear
I have 4GB RAM and I already checked 'Use Graphics Processor' box. Photoshop CS6 works fine with the same setting but Photoshop CC doesn't. Video card and RAM didn't cause these errors. I think it's Photoshop CC. I want to use only Photoshop CC and remove Photoshop CS6 but I can't because I still need to use 3D and Lighting Effects. That cost my hard drive memory to use 2 Photoshop versions at the same time.
I already removed both of them clearly and reinstalled but it doesn't work.
Please help me out! Thanks!

Trouble with Photoshop CC 2014, Camera Raw and Nikon 750.

I just installed Camera Raw 8.7.1. It put the folders in a "Pug-Ins" folder under \Programs\Common Files. My Photoshop CC 2014 is in \Programs\Adobe\Adobe Photoshop CC2014. When I try to open a NEF file from my Nikon D750, CC 2014 says it cannot open it; it is an unsupported file type. So what do I need to do? TIA, Rob

You can select a jpeg and try Ctrl r. If it doesn't work, let's do a reset. I didn't ask, but you are using Bridge CC?
Start Adobe Bridge and immediately press Ctrl+Alt+Shift (Windows) or Command+Option+Shift (Mac OS) until the Reset Settings dialog box appears.
Select all three options--Reset Preferences, Reset Standard Workspaces, and Purge Entire Thumbnail Cache--and then click OK.

Hi Guys and girls, I am having trouble with photoshop just starting up randomly

Every hour or so Photoshop just launches for no reason at all - I can be watching a movie so it's not something I'm doing whilst at the computer - any help on this matter would be most appreciated - I think I've changed a setting accidentally or uninstalled something I may have needed?
Any help on this matter would be so appreciated.
Sincerely
Matty

Pen and Touch with Photoshop CC Syncronization Problem

So, I just recently bought a drawing tablet to use while painting in Photoshop. It works perfectly for everything except when it comes to Photoshop. The program knows that I want to paint with the paintbrush tool, it repsonds, and it even recognizes the pressure I put on the tablet, but it doesn't do it in sync with the cursor...Whenever I use the paintbrush tool, the "paint" doesn't come out of the cursor, but up and to the left of it.
For example, If I were to try and put a single dot in the middle of the page using the paintbrush tool, I would move the cursor in the direct middle, press down, and the dot would appear towards the top left of where I touched.
I am mostly sure that this is NOT a problem with my tablet because I already updated the driver and I tested it out on every other program. The only time the problem occurred was when I went to Photoshop CC and used the paintbrush tool...every other tool in perfectly in sync with the cursor.
Something that I noticed about the program, however, is that whenever I am not in the Photoshop window, the cursor is in the normal place that I am holding it, but right once I click on my Photoshop window, it moves the cursor down and to the right.
I am not sure if this is a problem with the brush settings or something of that matter, but I know that it has nothing to do with my computer or my tablet.
Tablet is a Huion (cheap, I know...but I'm a poor college student)
Photoshop CC is the latest version, and I already tried reinstalling it with no solution.
I would be highly grateful for some help.
Thanks

I have the complete and most up to date driver. I checked three times and it told me that I had the latest possible driver.
I am using Windows 8 64bit, i7 processor, 8gm ram.
I have just the screen on my laptop, no external monitors or projectors.
I don't know about the calibration, I just set the tablet's "touchpad" size that I was using relative to the size of where I wanted it position and with the resolution of my screen (but I tried this and still encountered the problem with default settings just to make sure the readjustment wasn't causing the problem)
If there is a way to calibrate this tablet, I have no idea how. (The instructions are in terrible broken English and they make close to no sense when I try to read them anyway)
If it is a driver problem, I really don't know what would be wrong or how to fix it.

Using iPhoto and editing with Photoshop Elements 4

Hello
I am new to Macs after many years using PC and I am struggling to set up my photo workflow. I shoot in RAW format and input into iPhoto from iPhoto I double click on the photo and which opens the RAW editor in Photoshop Elements. After making changes I open the file in Photoshop and then save as a TIFF.
My problem is I do not see the changed and saved file in iPhoto and if I double click on the photo again it opens back up in the RAW editor not as a TIFF.
Can any one point me in the right direction to solve this or is what I am trying to do not possible
Thanks
Grant

Grant
Welcome to the Apple Discussions.
What you're trying to do is not possible.
When you save as a TIFF you create a whole new file that needs to be imported into iPhoto anew. iPhoto will track an edit as long as you stay with the same file - so, edit your jpeg in PSE and use the 'Save' command and the change is reflected in iPhoto. However, you cannot Save RAW files, it's always a Save As... and so the resulting file has to be imported.
