Problem with Photoshop CS5. Memory and Harddisk spaces

Just got CS5 Master Suite. Whenever I open photoshop it takes a ton of memory 1 gig +. When I open files it takes up more and more until it takes up all my memory and hard disk space. I open a simple multi layered file that is 25 megs in size to work on it. Before I know it photoshop is taking 20gigs+ of my hard disk space along with 3+ gigs of system memory. Is there a memory problem in photoshop cs5?
Thanks!
Joseph

So I just opened the 25 meg file in photoshop cs5 and watched my free space on my hard drive go down 8 gigs the instant I opened it. It went from 27 gigs of freespace to 19 instantly.
I am running a Macbook Pro with OSX 10.6., 4 gigs of ram on board.
anyone else having simular problems?

Any problems with Adobe CS5.5 and the Maverick system?

Has anyone had any problems with Adobe CS5.5 and the new Maverick OS? I don't want to install if there are issues. Thanks!

First thing I would suggest is to upgrade your server OS to a newer version if possible. Secondly try removing the apps out of the allowable apps list and instead change it so that you allow the apps that are within the specific application folder, ex: Applications/Adobe Photoshop CS5
I had similar problems with CS5 apps and by adding the apps by allowable folder instead it corrected my problem. Granted, if you have savvy users, there is the potential to open a can of worms here but it was the only way I could get it to work for "standard" non-admin user types.

Please read these and proceed accordingly (restoring Preferences after making sure all customized presets like Actions, Patterns, Brushes etc. have been saved might be of special interest):

UPDATE:
So I just opened the 25 meg file in photoshop cs5 and watched my free space on my hard drive go down 8 gigs the instant I opened it. It went from 27 gigs of freespace to 19 instantly. As I open more files and close others it works till my harddrive goes to zero space... stalls the computer big time. Only way to correct it is to quit photoshop cs5 and wait a few minutes for the space to return... and it takes a few minutes for it all to return.

Having problems with Photoshop CS5 running on 34 bit Vista

I recently downloaded CS5 Design premium, and I seem to be having trouble running bridge. I'm using MS Windows Vista Home Premium 32-bit SP2 on an Intel Core 2 Quad Q6600 @ 2.40GHz. 3gb of RAM and 256MB GeForce 8500 GT graphics card (if that matters). I was wondering if there is a way to fix this, or maybe a 32-bit version of Photoshop CS5.
And if there isn't, is there a way to remove the bridge access buttons from photoshop? Seeing something useless in a five hundred dollar program bothers me quite a bit. Thanks in advance.

Apparently, something went wrong with your Photoshop installation. I would try fully uninstalling Photoshop and then run the "CS5 cleaner tool" (see http://kb2.adobe.com/cps/829/cpsid_82947.html). Then try reinstalling making sure you turn off all anti-virus software and UAC (User Account Control) and run as an Administrator equivalent.
If you still have problems, please contact Adobe Technical support directly.
To answer you question about the buttons, no, there is no way of disabling that functionality.

Problems with Photoshop CS5.1

Hello everyone, I'm having some problems with Photoshop, it simply doesn't work as it should. When trying to resize the brush, the cursor changes shape and if I click, it won't, for example, paint where the cursor is pointing at, but about two inches diagonally. Then, the liquify tool freezes and I have to zoom in/out in order to make it work again, the brush disappears when changing the size, and again the cursor changes into something else and doesn't make any adjustment to where it's pointing at, but to a lower section. It's annoying to keep working like this! According to the update manager, everything is up to date. My current OS is Lion 10.7.2. Does anybody know how to fix this or at least why it is happening? I asked in the Adobe forums and I was told that it was Apple's fault (obvious response haha), and that a software update should come up to fix this driver problem or something. I'm not sure of what this is but I can't work like this. Thank you in advance.

What it means is Adobe is feverishly working on a solution. Apple has no control over Adobe's products. They may make spec changes to allow for better support of other data formats, and the GUI, and security of the operating system, and Adobe is always in the loop on http://developer.apple.com/ If they can't make Lion work with their software, it is partly due to the immense size of their software and not being able to modify such software without significant error checking, and partly due to possible changes that Apple may have made. One should never upgrade a production environment until one knows all one's software is compatible for all one's needs. Having a test machine, or a test hard drive to see if an upgrade works is probably best until migrating an entire environment to a new system. And always backup your data prior to upgrading. A clone backup offers the quickest recovery time. Carbon Copy Cloner is a great solution for external hard drives, and so is Superduper.

Problem with out of memory and reservation of memory

Hi,
we are running a very simple java program on HP-UX that do some text substitution - replacing special characters with other characters.
The files that are converted are sometimes very large, and now we have come to a point where the java server doing the work crashes with "Out of memory" message. (no stack) when it process one single 500MB large file.
I have encountered this error before(with smaller files) and then I have made the maximum Heap larger, but now when I try to set it to 4000M
i get the message:
"Error occurred during initialization of VM
Could not reserve enough space for old generation heap"
When it crash with this message, my settings are:
-XX:NewSize=500m -XX:MaxNewSize=1000m -XX:SurvivorRatio=
8 -Xms1000m -Xmx4000m
If I run with Xmx3000m instead the java program starts but I get Out of memory error like:
java.lang.OutOfMemoryError
<<no stack trace available>>
The GC log file created when it crashes looks like:

We have 132GB of physical memory and a lot of not used Swap space, so I cant imagine we have a problem with that.
Can anyone please suggest what to do proceed troubleshooting or to change some settings? I'm not into this Java really so I really need some help.
Usually the java program handles thousands of smaller files (around 500 KB - 1 MB sized files).
Thanks!

You have a one to one mapping? Where one character is replaced with another?
And all you do is read the file, replace and then write?
Then there is no reason to have the entire file in memory.
Other than that you need to determine if the VM (which is not a Sun VM) has an upper memory bound. That would be the limit that the VM will not go beyond regardless of memory in the system.
We have 132GB of physical memory and a lot of not used Swap spaceOne would wonder why you have swap space at all.

Problems with photoshop elements 10 and windows 8

I bought photoshop elements 10 for my wife last year for Christmas. She decided not to install it on our old computer because we knew that we were planning to replace the computer this year. We finally got around to replacing it and the new computer came with Windows 8. She installed her photoshop on it and she is having problems with it. I'm wondering if there is a compatability problem with the windows 8? Is there an update for the pse 10 that will make it work with windows 8?

PSE10 is said to be compactable with windows8. What kind of problem are you facing? Did you try launching after resetting preferences? to know more about reseting preferences, check http://helpx.adobe.com/photoshop-elements/using/undo-redo-cancel-actions.html#restore_defa ult_preferences

Installation problem with Photoshop Elements 10 and Premiere Elements 10

I purchased in a package Photoshop Elements 10 as well as Premiere Elements 10. It comes with 5 disc....When I install the first disc it does not ask for the 2nd disc once the first disc is done. When the first one was done the option was hit finish and I did and that was it. It did not request the next disc. What do I do?
Thanks
Jim

I have to say that for a reputable company such as Adobe, the instructions for download are totally non existent. The download for purchases on line are controlled by Digital River. I had problems with downloading as the link on the email confirming my purchase didn't work finally found the url link by pasting the email in Front Page and reading the source.
When I finally got through I was advised by the Digital River customer service that I had had too many attempts at downloading the software. When I sent a mail to CS at Digital I received this reply:
"Unfortunately, we do not handle the customer service for Adobe Systems,
Inc. Home. Please contact them directly with your request through one of
the following methods:
Customer Service URL: http://www.adobe.com/ap/support
Customer Service Phone: If available, the regional numbers will be
listed at the URL above.
We apologize for the inconvenience."
I have now run around the adobe site trying to find a way to download the products, but no joy so far.
I tried to get customer serice to call me back , but this service is not available for my country, Thailand.
The final way I am told is to make a call to the customer service at the number listed on my confirmation email.
I already called this number (which I believe I have to pay for) and spent some 10 minutes on the line to what I believe was someone located in India who said he would send me a link for downloading the software.
As they say in the song .... I'm still waiting!!!!!
Adobe, shame on you. Please get your act together. Why can't you handle your own customer service rather than sub contract it out. You charge enough for the product which more than covers the cost

Problem with Photoshop CS5 registration

Hi
I have bought Photoshop CS5 from an previous owner with complete package and serial number. This copy is supposed to be deinstalled and deactivated from any other computer. I successfully installed and activated it but I don't see it in 'my products' page in my Adobe account. When I try to register product for my account I am getting 'already registred' error message.
What I need to do to have this Photoshop copy successfully registred for my name and account?
p.s.

Buying Adobe software from a private party is not as easy as you describe. You have to jump through hoops for licence to be transfered from one party to the next. Here is link to form.http://helpx.adobe.com/x-productkb/policy-pricing/transfer-product-license.html

Problems with Photoshop - loading filters and brushes

I'm having problems with my plug ins in Photoshop, which also includes brush sets.
There are all present and correct in the usual area you save them with in the application folders.
But when I want to use them in Photoshop either they don't show, or I get an error message saying I don't have the privileges to load them.
If you can help in any way, it would be great as I am at a loss on how I can get them to work. These are fairly critical to completing certain work (graphics for distressed T Shirts)
and would like to get them up and working before a project flies in and I can't use them.
I was able to add a few plug ins by changing the permissions on the files. But this has not solved the problem for all & I am still unable to get "MACHINE WASH DELUXE" to work.
Any help or suggestions would be useful,
Thanks
Stones

Sorry, the brushsets appear to be fine but it is the plugins we still have issues with. 8BF. files, they are stored under photoshop CS4 in applications, this plug in were trying to get work "MACHINE WASH DELUXE" worked on this Mac & Photoshop version previously, but on a different user account (Now a domain user, used to be a administrator that connects into the domain) Interestingly though non of the plugins work for the scanner etc, although they are in the same location as they would of been for the previous user. Not much done in trouble shooting the issue, once the brushes started to appear because we corrected the permissions, we were stumped on what move to take next.
Thanks for you assistance

Software update - now problems with Photoshop CS5

I updated Lion's software last night and now, first time I've used it since, I can't change fonts in Photoshop CS5. In the previous document (from a few days ago) I had used Copperplate Light which has all letters in capitals. Now, the form of the font will change to that of the capitals in the new font but it won't switch to lower case letters. Yes, the caps lock is off.

What are the problems with Photoshop Elements 10 and iPhoto in Mountain Lion?

I have Adobe Photoshop Elements 10 and would like to install it on my new iMac with Mountain Lion. I have read about compatibilty issues with iPhoto. Is there a way to correct this or is PSE 11 a better option?

Can I suggest posting this question in the iPhoto forum? There are some true iPhoto wizards there who probably know the answer to your question.

Problem with Photoshop CS5

Hello,
Many years ago I bought Photoshop CS5 in french. Waiting for the CD I downloaded the trial version. When I received the CD with the licence number, I only had to put the licence number in the trial version.
Now I would like to put back CS5 in my computer but I've just noticed that the CD Adobe sent me is scratched. That makes I cannot use the licence number I bought.
Can anybody help me to find an issue ? (Finding CS5 in french)
Thank you very much.
