PSE 12 keeps FREEZING when using Brushes

I am running PSE 12.1 and every time i try to use brushes on any command(delete or paint  etc...).  I have tried to delete files that others have suggested and I have also used the uninstall to remove preferences and still to no avail.  I have a mac book pro running yosemite and I need help.  No reason to purchase a program and it not work! 
PLEASE SOMEONE HELP ME OUT!!!!!

I have the same problem.
I tried this tips that I got, but it didn't help.
Delete:
com.adobe.PhotoshopElements.plist
Adobe Photoshop Elements < version > Paths
Adobe Photoshop Elements < version > Settings
com.adobe.Elements Organizer. < version >.plist
com.adobe.ElementsOrganizer< version>.plist
and any lockfiles with the same names, then go to Saved Application States (at the same level as preferences) and delete any for PSE, then repair permissions and try again.
I hope someone will post back with a solution!

  • Imac keeps freezing when using safari

    my imac keeps freezing when using safari or finder
    The beachball appears and I have to wait.
    My safari cache is emptied, have run Disk Utility to check permissions.
    Rebooted various times.
    Sorted out ``the community toolbar not supported" issue and still it's happening.
    Anyone any tips on what to do next??
    It's a 24 inch iMac - early 2009 version
    Processor is 3.06 Ghz Intel Core 2 Duo
    Memory 4GB 1067 MHz DDR3
    Software is OS X 10.8.2 (12C60)

    I have only been able to read your reply by going online on my phone -
    I started up my iMac in safe mode on Saturday morning and reran Disk Utility , no problems.
    I shut it down and re started it as normal.  Whilst I was able to use my Mail and MS entourage and Safari brower,
    the computer was very slow and the beachball appeared briefly each time I used a program.
    On Monday , it didn't recognise one of the printers and was continually hanging.
    All software is up to date and I have run Disk Utility - repair permissions again.
    I shut the computer down yesterday and rebooted in Safe mode this afternoon so that I could try to look in
    Console.

  • Photoshop freezing when using brush tool

    I just got an IMAC 27 inch 5K (coming from a Macbook Pro).  Everything transferred fine but when I use PS CS6 for more than about 30 minutes, it keeps freezing when I'm using the brush tool.  I can't do ANYTHING in PS when it happens, have to force quit and then re-open all the files thru ACR again into PS.  I get another 30 minutes and then it happens again.  HELP!!!!

    Did you install MacOS 10.10?
    And did you install the WhiteWindowWorkaround plugin to work around the known OS problems?

  • Safari keeps freezing when using yahoo mail.

    Safari keeps freezing while using Yahoo mail. Have to close out or reset safari to regain access. Anyone else ever have this problem?

    Why not use Mac Mail instead of Yahoo's web based mail and having to access it via Safari and deal with incompatibility issues?
    Open Mac Mail.
    From the menu bar top of your screen click Mail / Preferences then select the Accounts tab then the Account Information tab.
    Click +  (plus) under  the Accounts  panel on the left.
    Type in your name, Yahoo email address and Yahoo password then click Create.
    It's that easy.
    To view incoming mail or start a new mail message just click the Mail icon in your Dock. If the Mail icon isn't in the Dock, go to your Applications folder, launch Mail. Then click and hold the Mail icon in the Dock, click Option / Keep In Dock.

  • Apple Trackpad freeze when using brush tools

    Apple MacBook Pro Retina, OS X 10.10 Yosemite Beta 1
    I've just downloaded Photoshop CC 2014 Trial. I don't use mouse or tablet, but I use Apple Trackpad. When I start using Brush, Clone Stamp, Quick Selection Tool, etc cursor freezes between movements. In previous version of PS (14.2.1) everything is fine. I've made a video to show you this problem.
    Video: PSfreeze.mp4
    What should I do to solve this problem?
    P.S. Sorry for my English.

    I've just reverted back to the previous build of Photoshop CC and the problem is fixed, so I'm gonna wait till the next release of Photoshop or the final version of Yosemite and give it another shot. My friend tested the same Ps version on his iMac running Mavericks and it worked fine with the Magic Mouse, so it's definitely some kind of incompatibility issue between the current Ps CC build and Yosemite.

    If you are using safari to watch iPlayer, enable debug console in the safari settings and check to see if there are any errors, iPlayer uses quicktime for the video, there may be an issue with that.

  • My iPad mini keeps freezing when using Apple wireless keyboard

    I recently bought an iPad with retine display, and an apple wireless keyboard. I don't know if the problem is the iPad, the keyboard, or the app I am using.
    I will be typing away fine with my keyboard, however if I stop for too long, the iPad suddenly loses connection with the keyboard and completely freezes. The home button does nothing, the virtual keyboard does nothing, and holding down the power down does nothing. There is no response from the iPad at all. After a few minutes the iPad either returns to the home screen or powers off. I can use it as normal from there. The app I am using is Day One journal, and is a reputable app. I have no idea what the problem is, and I hope it isn't affecting my iPad in the long run. My keyboard is only 2 weeks old, so the batteries are hadly low. I am mainly concerned about the iPad freezing.
    Any help?? Thanks.

    Hello there Lsu70,
    If your app is rendering the iPad unresponsive, I would recommend you use the troubleshooting in this article to help get that resolved, named:
    iOS: An app you installed unexpectedly quits, stops responding, or won’t open
    Start with these steps, but there are additional things to do if these do not resolve the issue:
    Follow the steps below and test the app after each step.Restart the app
    Close the app and open it again.Restart your device
    Turn the device off and on.Update your device software and your apps
    Update your device to the latest version of iOS.
    Update your apps:
    Open the App Store and tap Updates.
    If updates are available, tap Update All.
    If asked, enter your Apple ID password. The updates will download and install.
    You might need a Wi-Fi connection to update some apps.
    Thank you for using Apple Support Communities.
    All the very best,
    Sterling

  • Firefox keeps freezing and using 50% cpu and memory usage shoots up most of the time it's when there's an auto update of anything addon, plugin or ff!

    Firefox keeps freezing and using 50% cpu and memory usage shoots up real fast and carries on going till it uses up all there is left. Most of the time it's when there's an auto update of anything addon, plugin or ff but not just neccessarily then! I find out it's happened when there's been an update after i restart and an extra webpage comes up with the particular addon/plugin/ff update. I have to restart most of time because nothing sorts it out. I'm using windows xp with the latest update of ff 13.0.1 it's not this version because it's been happening for a while. And it never started when i added a particular addon or plugin or when i added a new app to my pc either. Any idea as to what this may be or how i'd sort it out?
    Cheers

  • So my iphone 4 that is using ios5 keeps freezing when i want to dial, or receive call. i can use all my other apps but cant use the phone to call because the freezing problem. i know some people that are having the same problem too. what can i do?

    so my iphone 4 that is using ios5 keeps freezing when i want to dial, or receive call. i can use all my other apps but cant use the phone to call because the freezing problem. i know some people that are having the same problem too. what can i do?

    I got the same problem. The percentage of getting this problem is around 10% of all my dial/receive calls.
    The problem usually appears when I receive calls. The phone app will freeze, and I cannot dial or receive calls even I closed the phone app, however, most other apps work properly.
    Once this problem happens, I will not be able to turn off the phone by holding sleep button, the only way I can get rid of it is holding sleep and home button at the same time to reset the iphone.

    Order of Troubleshooting...
    (1) Video Card Driver Problem
    Does the computer use a NVIDIA GeForcce video card/graphics card? If so, stop and read the announcement at the top of this forum.
    It describes the Premiere Elements 10 NVIDIA video card driver problem and gives the fix. For your convenience the following is a
    copy/paste of the Announcement. Very important to rule in or out the known Premiere Elements 10 NVIDIA Video Card Driver issue.
    Premiere Elements 10 NVIDIA Video Card Driver Roll Back
    If you are a Premiere Elements 10 user whose Windows computer uses a NVIDIA GeForce video card and you are experiencing Premiere
    Elements 10 display and/or unexplained program behavior, then your first line of troubleshooting needs to be rolling back the video card
    driver version instead of assuring that it is up to date.
    Since October 2013 to the present, there have been a growing number of reports about display and unexplained workflow glitches specific
    to the Premiere Elements 10 user whose Windows computer has a NVIDIA GeForce video card. If this applies to you, then the “user to user”
    remedy is to roll back the NVIDIA GeForce video card driver as far as is necessary to get rid of the problems. The typical driver roll back has
    gone back as far as March – July 2013 in order to get a working Premiere Elements 10. Neither NVIDIA nor Adobe has taken any corrective
    action in this regard to date, and none is expected moving forward.
    Since October 2013, the following thread has tried to keep up with the Premiere Elements 10 NVIDIA reports
    http://forums.adobe.com/thread/1317675
    Older NVIDIA GeForce drivers can be found

    A February 2014 overview of the situation as well as how to use the older NVIDIA GeForce drivers for the driver roll back can be found

    We could direct you to video and audio properties readout programs, but let us see if we can get the information needed from knowing

  • My iPhone keeps freezing when I am streaming videos.  It never used to do that. How do I fix this.

    My iPhone keeps freezing when I am streaming videos. How do I fix this.

    Hello Jennings Castle,
    It seems your iPhone is slowing down and not responding frequently. To rectify this issue you may want to consider performing a restore on the device, and then restoring your data from a backup via iCloud or iTunes. 
    If the issue persists after restoring your backup, you would then want to consider restoring the device and setting it up as new. Below I have linked to article which offers guidance on both of these restore methods:
    How to erase your iOS device and then set it up as a new device or restore it from backups - Apple Support

  • My iPhone 5 keeps freezing when I connect to wifi, not just freeze the wifi, but freezes the whole phone and have to hold home and lock button. Locks up completely and instantly when I turn on wifi and connect. Solutions?

    My iPhone 5 keeps freezing when I connect to wifi, not just freeze the wifi, but freezes the whole phone and have to hold home and lock button. Locks up completely and instantly when I turn on wifi and connect. Solutions?

    1.  If you are really on iOS 7.1, you may wish to try upgrading to 8.1.2 which is the latest (basing this on your signature).
    2.  If updating the phone doesn't help, is this only when you connect to a specific wifi network?  Or all wifi networks (including public with no password)?  If it is ALL wifi networks, you may have a hardware problem.  Genius bar would be the next step.
