Using the lighting effects filter causes my CS6 to crash

Hi,
I read other threads with people have issues with their PC, but I am not able to follow them to correct my issues.
When I open a JPEG file from my mark iii into CS6, I try to start a new layer and then add the lighting effects filter. CS6 crashes (the little effects comes up on the screen and the little blue circle goes round and round). Nothing happens, but if I check task manager it says photoshop is not running.
I have windows, 16GB ram, and am using a small percent of my memory.
How do I see if I need to update my video card and how do I do that?
Thank you, Michele

Have you installed all the Photoshop updates?
And have you checked your GPU maker's website for updated video card drivers?

Is the Lighting Effects Filter still 32-bit in CS6?

In Photoshop CS4 and CS5, it's a real PIA to have to restart PS in 32-bit mode in order to use the Lighting Effects filter (FILTER>RENDER>LIGHTING EFFECTS). Has this been addressed in CS6? (Still looking for reasons to upgrade.) Thanks.

See this article: http://forums.adobe.com/thread/979969
It focuses on GPU requirements and troubleshooting. The Lighting Effects Gallery depends on the right graphics card and drivers.
Run throught the troubleshooting steps first in order to see what needs to be done.

Every time I use the Lighting Effects Filter the software crashes.

It worked last Friday. I don’t know if there has been any update this week. All updates are done automatically by our IT department.

Why is the Lighting Effects Filter crashing PS CC?

I am creating an RGB 8-bit image, and every time I select the Lighting Effects filter it starts to load then crashes Photoshop CC.

Please read this:

Have you tried different »Advanced Settings« under Photoshop > Preferences > Graphics Processor Settings?
Is your GPU driver up to date (accoriding to the maker’s site, not the OS maker’s)?

Where is the Lighting Effects Options Bar located in Photoshop CC

When I click Filter>Render>Lighting Effects, there is supposed to be an options bar that comes up. It is not showing up in Photoshop CC. Where is it located or is there an alternative for it?

How do I get the Lighting Effect filter to work with PS5.1 and Mavericks

Photoshop boots up in 64 bit. There is no option to open in 32 bit unter photoshop app, get info dialog box. Only "prevent app nap". When I change to RGB 8 bit. nothing changes. The filter does not show at all. It is not greyed out. When using Finder, the lighting filter seems to be there in the plug-ins folder. Please help. Thank you.

Have you tried an Adobe forum? PS5 is an Adobe product!

When attempting to use the Lighting effects filter in CS6 it begins to load but then the programme seizes up. It is then necessary to disconnect from the supply to restart. Having done this an attempt to "Browse in Bridge" simply opens a host of files b

On a previous occasion a similar problem occurred but without affecting Bridge. At that time it was suggested that I update the graphics card and this worked.

Same here I have Lumia 920, 3 days after I bought it the device had an overheating problem and once the phone is off, I have to work hard to turn it on again, from soft resetting and hard resetting it After that I brought the phone to Nokia Care Center (I'm Indonesian by the way) in the NCC Branch in my province. 2 days after that, they told me that the problem was solved and asked me to take the phone. When I got there and the Costumer Service want to give me the phone, she try to turn on the phone, but she can't. She take the phone to a room (I don't know maybe it's the repairman room or whatever) and when she got out she told me that the problem is still exist and they will brought my phone to the NCC Center in other province. I have to wait for 2 weeks. Can you believe it? 2 weeks WITHOUT ANY PHONE? I have to buy another low-end phone that time.
After that the phone back to normal, But Then another problem come, after update my phone to Amber, my phone can't use Nokia Pro Cam (at that time, before Nokia Camera out), Bing Vision, Maps, Glance Screen, Auto Rotate, and GAMES. at first I just have to restart the phone to turn it back, but then the problem is not solved after I restart, even then, I did a hard reset but the problem is still there. Last friday, I brought my phone to the Nokia Care Center, they asked to take it the next day, but AGAIN! The problem is not solved, and they said I have to wait until the newest software update to come so the problem can be solved. Today, still no news or information from them, I don't know if I can trust Nokia Care Center again after this

Photoshop CS6 lighting effects filter--where are the handles?

I have read all the previous posts about this, and taken all steps. Running WIn7, 64 bit, my video card is 512Mb, drivers are up to date, PS is up to date, I restarted and stil no handles appear in the Lighting Effects filter.

Does "all steps" include ensuring 'View > Show > 3D Lights' is enabled and 'View > Extras' is enabled when the Lighting Effects filter is active?

Lighting Effects filter in CC does not stay on layer properly

Hey this is my first post on the forums and I have been having problems with the lighting effects filter in my cc version.
It is hard to describe but in the lighting effects editor where I can position my lights and stuff I have 2 spotlights shining on a object.
When I am in the lighting effects editor it looks how I want it to look. While when I click ok to apply it to the layer, photoshop actually stops responding (at one point crashed) and removes the desired effect.
I am not sure what it is doing but it is very annoying and I was wondering if anyone else has had this problem happen.
Images
In the lighting effects editor
Once I click OK to apply it to the layer
As you can see, it changes the way it looks in a few minor ways. If anyone knows how I can get it to stay looking like how it was in the first image, I would love to know.
Thanks!

So nobody knows about this issue or has any tips to try and solve this?

Ps CS6 Problem: Lighting Effects filter quantises 16-bit height-map to 8-bit in a 16-bit document

I've edited this message: one complaint has been removed - it was my mistake - conroy.
Photoshop 13.0.1
OS X 10.6.8
16 bits per channel RGB mode.
The Lighting Effects filter quantises the optional height-map channel to 8 bits, which can result in a very obvious terraced-slopes appearance and moiré.
(Adobe, please do not simply reply with "you should be using 13.0.4" unless that actually fixes the problem.)

Alpha channels are 16-bit in a 16-bit per channel document. As Christoph said, selections are limited to 8-bit, so if you make a channel from a selection then that channel will have 8-bit quantisation.
Here is an example of Lighting Effects filter using a channel containing a 16-bit radial gradient as a height-map, and where the filter is quantising the height values to 8-bit.

Urgent - Need help with Lighting Effects Filter

Hi,
I need urgent help on something regarding the Lighting Effects filter in Adobe Photoshop CS5. I need lighting effect urgently to complete a project.
I am using Photoshop CS5 on a Windows Vista computer in 64-bit mode.
On the net it is given that you can run photoshop CS5 in 32-bit mode to use the lighting effects filter - both on Mac and PC.
My Problem:
While on the net it is given how to change from 64-bit to 32-bit and vice-versa, I have my Photoshop CS5 installed on 'E - Drive' and not on 'C - Drive' due to lack of space. I have followed all the instructions on how to open it in 32-bit mode on the net, but I still cannot use the lighting effects plugin.
What I need is if someone could give simple and clear instructions on how to open Photoshop CS5 32-bit version instead of opening the default 64-bit version on Windows Vista - that would be great.
Looking forward to answers.
Thanks.

That advice about running the 32 bit version of cs5 for the Render> Lighting Effects filter
only pertains to the mac version of photoshop cs5.
The lighting effects filter does work in the 64 bit version of photoshop cs5 on windows, your
document just has to be 8 bits/channel and in the RGB Color mode (Image>Mode) same
for using the lighting effects filter in the 32 bit version of cs5.
Added: In general it's frowned upon installing photoshop on drives other than C drive.

CS6 Non-responsive when using Light effect filter in Photoshop

Win 7 OS. I am trying to use the light effect filter and when I select it photoshop gets locked up and won't respond until I end task in task manager (it says photoshop not responding in task manager). Is there a fix for this? I did all of my updates and it still happens. I have homework to do, I need to fix this issue. Any help is appreciated,
Thank you

Every time I try and use lighting effect, on my Win 7, CS6 it crashes. I at least get to use it, but when I click "ok" for the changes to take place, "Adobe has stopped working" and just crashes.
I looked into my Graphics Card drivers update... (AMD RADEON hd 6450) and on the site, I chose a very new update for a catalyst... blah blah. Which gave me this new control panel specific with this new driver update. However, once I downloaded it, restarted (for s & g's) it doesn't show up in my graphics card properties... its the same driver as before. So this may not have anything to do with what help I need. Although, it has a new "control center" that I looked at and its all martian to me.
Someone please help me to resolve this issue??!! I can give more information if needed.

Lighting effects filter not available on PScc - using windows 8.1 with GeForce GTX 680 graphics card

I have Photoshop cc and Lightroom 5.5. My computer runs windows 8.1, 64 bit, with GeForce GTX 680 graphics card.
I am trying to use the lighting effects filter, but it is grayed out so I cannot select it.
Can you tell me what I need to change in order to use the lighting effects filter?

This is the Lightroom forum. I don't use the lighting effects very often in Photoshop. But if I recall correctly, it will only work on 8-bit images.
