PS CS5.1 - Changes/additions to doc don't appear until I zoom in/out of image

Good evening,
Over the past few weeks I've encountered a problem with Photoshop CS 5.1. Anytime I make an addition or alteration to an image (not a photo, but a digital composition) whatever I've done does not appear until I zoom in or out of the image. I have also tried waiting a few seconds to see if the program just lagged but it still doesn't appear until I zoom in or out. An example would be if I add text to a document, while I'm typing the cursor will move as I type but the text doesn't appear until I zoom. This is with solid text and of a color differing from the background.
I tried increasing the memory available to the program (I have given it about 6gb), still occurs. I uninstalled and reinstalled the program, problem persists.
I'm running Windows 7 64bit, Intel i7 1.6ghz, 8 gb of memory
Any possible solutions would be very helpful. I've resorted to using CS2 and I would love to move back to CS5.
Thanks

Hi there! Because the forum you originally posted in is for beginners trying to learn the basics of Photoshop, I moved your question to the Photoshop General Discussion forum, where you'll get more specialized help.

  • Changes made on iPod don't appear when connected to iTunes

    Long story short, iTunes doesn't like it when I make changes through my iPod, and tries to "fix" them.
    If I delete a song or make changes to a playlist through the iPod itself, that change doesn't show up in iTunes. Deleted songs will be unplayable, but still appear. Newly created playlists may or may not appear. Deleted playlists are still there. Songs added to a playlist don't appear in the playlist, songs deleted from a playlist still appear in the playlist.
    If I make a change to my iPod through iTunes itself, it reflects that change on my iPod, but also reverts any changes I've made through the iPod (so, if I remove a song from a playlist through my iPod, then connect to iTunes and remove a song from a playlist through iTunes, the song I removed through iTunes will be removed from my iPod, but the song I removed through my iPod will reappear). It will also occasionally re-load songs I've deleted entirely, though they'll be greyed out and unplayable.
    As you may imagine, this is really annoying.
    I have all types of automatic syncing turned off, and I don't store any music in iTunes itself once it's been put on my iPod.
    I just want iTunes to show me what is on my iPod right now, and not revert back to whatever image it seems to have stored of my iPod when I try to make changes through iTunes. Does anyone have a fix for this?

  • Mnemonics don't appear until alt key is pressed

    In a swing application, mnemonics have been given for all the JMenuItems. When the application is started, the underlined mnemonics do not appear until the alt key is pressed. Can any one throw some light on this strange behaviour?

    However, I don't want any text (either a preview of the message or even who the message is from) to appear in the lock screen.  I just want an audible or vibration alert to sound.  I do still want a banner alert when not in the lock screen.  Is this possible?

  • Font and size changes  in design view  don't appear

    I am using the trial version of Dreamweaver CS3 on my G5 Mac
    (Leopard), and whenever I make changes to the font and font size,
    it does not appear in the design- although the code is there (in
    both the css that I create or specific to the paragraph) and then
    it shows up when I save and go to browser. Is there some secret to
    making the changes viewable as they are being made rather than
    having to go to the browser every time before one can see them? It
    doesn't seem very practical to only be able to view them in a
    browser and not while you are making changes so you know if it is
    what you want... can someone please help me with this? I'd like to
    buy CS3, and use Dreamweaver, but it won't save me any time if I
    have to keep going back to the browser before I can see the changes
    I've made.

    How are you making the changes - using the properties box in
    CSS mode
    - or in an external style sheet.

  • My iphoto freezes when trying to use the standard eBay photo upload, the problem started after a recent iOS 7 update. The album photos don't appear until I try and close the upload and immediately freezes. Attempts to close iphoto fail.

    A week or so ago I reacted to an Apple update message. The update completed and this left me with a couple of problems. When the imac started up there was a Glims message on screen telling me that the computer had not closed entirely and asking if I wanted to allow glims to reopen previously open files. I ticked yes and Safari froze immediately. This would happen even after a restart, Safari would start up with the Glims message on my Yahoo mail account. Then whether I clicked on the Glims message or not one of various adverts would appear and Safari would immediately freeze. I managed to override this by quickly entering Safari extensions and subscribing to an advertisement blocking programme. Safari now worked without problems but the blocking programme created other problems mostly with iphoto. The eBay uploaded photos were minute. So I decided to remove the Safari blocking extension and all seemed fine for everything except iphoto which now freezes every time I try to upload eBay photo's using the eBay standard upload problem. Yesterday I changed to the other BASIC upload option and that did work. Thought it might be a one of glitch on the Standard but obviously not. Anyone's help would be appreciated. I note that at least one other member is experiencing the same or similar problem today.

    Sorry I am 70 and not very computer literate. Please explain in simpler terms. Perhaps I should have said Apple update for my iMac. It did however include an iphoto update. My imac is 3 years old, I also have an ipad 2 and iPhone and both received iOS 7 updates around the same time.

  • Buttons/MC on timeline don't appear until mouse roll over in browser

    Hello all,
    I am experiencing some weird behavior with some moveclips and buttons on my video player; (as2)
    http://websites.danielnwilliams.co.uk/crankmedia/
    I have created a video player that has the scrubber/playpause button actually move with the position in the video. There are other links that appear when the main video is at a certain point. There seems to be 2 problems with it which I cant figure out what is going on...
    -1st is that the scrubber is actually linked to the timeline (where the buttons are on) with the follwing code;
    MovieClip.prototype.scrubbb2 = function (x)
        var f2:Number = Math.round (this._totalframes * x);
        this.gotoAndStop (f2);
    For some reason the timeline starts from when the video is buffering, so its all out of sync with certain points in the video. But when you move the scrubber, the timeline seems to 'snap' into place and then all the videos line up. What have I done wrong here?!
    -2nd is that the link buttons will not appear unless the mouse is over the flash video player on the webpage. If your mouse is out of the video player nothing appears when its meant to. as soon as you put the mouse cursor into the flash player the links (that are meant to be visible) appear instantly. Is there a way to make them always appear on time?!
    Any help is greatly appreciated
    Cheers
    Dan

    yes, you can use, add and remove cuepoints in as2 but that's not what you should do for a scrubber.  you should use the metadata event to determine your flv's duration and use a loop (eg enterframe), to update the scrubber's position based on the duration and the netstream's time property.
    when your scrubber is dragged, delete the enterframe loop and use the seek() method to direct the stream to the correct point.
    you'll use a little algebra control your scrubber's position based on the netstream's time and you'll control your seek parameter based on the scrubber's position:
    // to determine the seek time given the scrubber.dragbar position:
    paramF(scrubber.dragbar,0,0,scrubber._width-scrubber.dragbar._width,duration);
    // to determine the scrubber.dragbar position given the netstream time
    paramF(scrubber,0,0,duration,scrubber._width-scrubber.dragbar._width);
    function paramF(mc:MovieClip,x1:Number,y1:Number,x2:Number,y2:Number){
    mc.m=(y1-y2)/(x1-x2);
    mc.b=y1-mc.m*x1;

  • Some messages just don't appear until restarting mail?

    Hi we use kerio as our mail exchange server and its running great. The problem is i believe with apple mail checked the mail server logs all fine.
    Sometimes, like this morning for instance I spoke to someone this morning who had sent me an email and it didn't show in my inbox until i just restarted mail this afternoon when it appeared??Sometimes the mail appears on the iphone at the correct time running exchange and not in mail.
    This is happening to a few people in the company and I'm getting it in the ear.. for missed deadlines.
    Anyone having similar experiences or know of the reason why? and how to rectify it? Its only the odd occasion, but it always seems to be an important email.
    Thanks for your help.

    How it works:
    After the installation you won ‘t find an application icon as it integrated within your menu options only. Visit the locations you want to white list and add them to the WiFi-Manager list. Ensure you have enabled the WiFi manager and then you ready to go.
    Note: Sometimes a location might be between two cell towers or more so you might have to add the location multiple times to ensure you cover each cell tower.

    We should rethink if we want to clear hostFormat rather than have a hostFormatChanged flag.  If there is no hostFormat at measure then it has to be fixed because there is no line break format to check for auto-size.

    Oh my god, it is too long! You definitely check out types, casting and especially ODP.Net (it does everything for you)... etc. They can help you to simplify your code. I do not have enough time to copy paste it to Studio and understand and solve your issue, so I got title of your message as your main question.
    In Oracle, you can create an autonumber field by using sequences object. This is really useful when you need to create a unique number to act as a primary key.
    Basically you can create a sequence simply typing;
    CREATE SEQUENCE MY_SEQUENCE;
    now you have a sequence called "MY_SEQUENCE"... Then, I advice you select a number from sequence;
    select MY_SEQUENCE.nextval from dual;
    I said I advice actually kinda must, although it called sequence, I cannot be sequential. Do not even try to predict the value. You can be sure that it is unique number so you can use it.
    Then insert you record and use that number part of your primary key. I think that's it. Have fun.

  • How do I make it so iWork docs don't have to reformat from Mac to iOS

    How do I make it so iWork docs don't have to reformat from Mac to iOS?
    When I edit docs and spreadsheets on my Mac with OSX Mountain Lion with documents in iCloud, they have to be reformatted when I go to open them on my iPad or iPhone.  This is minor annoyance but an annoyance nonetheless.  Is there a way to format docs on the Mac so this does not take place?

    Hello KatTreeRain,
    And welcome to Apple Discussions!
    Change the music video's *Media Type* to Video. To do this, right->click on the music video and choose *Get Info* and then head over to the Options tab. There you will see the *Media Type* option with a drop down list. This will move the music video to your Videos/Movies.

    So I have an iphone and for some reason I don't know the password for my Apple ID so I can't download apps and I don't have the password to my email to change it and I don't know the secret questions , what can I do to make a new Apple ID ?

    I have the same problem - it is maddening. I rely on this iPad for work so this is not just an annoyance! The above solutions of changing the appleid on the device or on the website do not work.
    The old email address no longer exists - I haven't used it in a year probably and I no longer have the account.  I logged into the appleid website and there is no trace of the old email address so there is nothing that can be deleted or changed there.  On the iPad there is no trace of the old email address so nothing can be deleted there either. I have updated the iPad software and the same problem comes right back.  Every 2 seconds I am asked to log in using the old non-existent email.  The device is currently useless.
    The only recent change to anything was the addition of an Apple TV device, which was set up using the correct login and password.
    Does anyone have any ideas? The iPad has been backed up to the iCloud so presumably it now won't recognize the current iCloud account? So restoring may notbe an option?

  • Illustrator CS5 Changing dot lpi and angle dialog box not opening

    Hello! I am having trouble with Illustrator CS5 changing the dot lpi and angle. I have my problem typed out below the image. Please help if you can! Thank you!

    You could also save yourself a lot of work by creating an ink template .ait with all of the angle/frequency values preset.
    1) Simply create a new document, size the artboard to your typical size and create a series of color chips (squares) each colored with one of your typical inks. It looks like you're doing t-shirt seps so you probably have about 20 or so inks you use all the time.
    2) Go into the print settings and set all of their angle and frequency values and click done.
    3) Choose File->Save As Template (you can delete the color chips if you want at this point, the swatches will remain)
    Now whenever you start a new document, choose File -> New From Template
    Any new artwork you create can be colored with the existing swatches and you'll find the angle / frequency settings are already set.
    Any forum posts links send to my twitter @ask_illustrator will be answered at the forum and via twitter.
