Quick Select crashes PS

Hey everyone.  I started having this issue a few days ago.  When using the quick select tool, it freezes PS and I have to shut it down via task manager.  I've searched for solutions and noticed that the latest update supposedly fixes a bug that causes this.  However, I have installed the update successfully and it is doing the same thing.  I'm working with PS CS5 on a Vista Ultimate (SP1) machine (32 bit), Intel Core2 CPU - 2.40 GHz, 4 GB RAM.
The following is for the Problem Reports and Solutions control panel:

Any help is greatly appreciated.  Thank you.

Jeff,  I updated the NVIDIA driver and QuickSelect is no longer crashing PS.  Thank you very much for steering me in the right direction.  I appreciate your help very much.

  • Photoshop Crashes after quick selection tool

    Did the 14.2 update today and since then i have been unable to use the quick selection tool, followed by quick mask. The PC Crashes.
    Photoshop CC has worked perfectly until now
    Please help, I am on a deadline for images for an online website, I so wish I had not updated
    Image below shows quick mask, the selection was the top right above the frogs eye, but look at the red mask, also Task manager shown(it says Photoshop not responding)
    This was the sequence of events if it helps
    The Pc was working from a clean reboot.
    I opened Photoshop
    Opened an image off the camera
    cropped to 1000px wide (72 dpi)
    Quick selection
    Quick mask
    This is the result (happened 5 times to date so going for a coffee in the hope someone has a solution soon!)
    Many thanks

    I have reproduced it myself on one occasion, though it did not lock Photoshop up for me.  It's been reported to Adobe.
    There may be some connection to the zoom level.  Out of curiosity, are you using Scrubby Zoom?
    It might be prudent to try configuring Photoshop to use either the "Normal" or "Basic" drawing mode instead of "Advanced", though it is of course a bit difficult to know right away whether the problem has been worked-around.

    P.S., you said "The PC crashes"...  Are you speaking of something beyond the Photoshop application locking up as you have shown above?  An application locking up isn't the same as a system crash.

  • PS CS 5.1 crashing when I use the Quick Select took in the neg format

    I am using PSCS5.1 and when I use the "quick select" tool and use the "Alt" key to turn it to the negitive so that I can cut out stuff I do not want to select I get a message that say's "Adobe PSCS has stopped working" and it closes down the whole program! I'm using a PC with Vista.
    HELP...PLEASE....
    Hugs, Theresa

    Theresa, it could be helpful if you'd go look in your Windows Application log for error entries corresponding to the Photoshop crashes.
    Click Start, type event viewer into the search box, and click Event Viewer when it comes up.
    Navigate into Windows Logs > Application, and look for red Error entries.
    When you find the one(s) for the Photoshop crashes, look at the info in the General tab specifically for faulting module.  List the name(s) immediately following faulting module here.

  • Quick Selection Tool Crashes CS5?

    Hello, Recently when I've gone to use the Quick Selection Tool I see no "marching ants" and CS5 crashes a couple of seconds after finishing the brush stroke.  I've replaced the graphics card and installed the latest GPU driver.  I uninstalled Photoshop and reinstalled it.  My system description is below my sig.  Has anybody seen this behavior?
    Thanks, - Dave

    Hi Noel,
    Yeah, I kind of made a long story short.  I have a display anomaly as well.  Two different display cards, two different driver families.  Here's the URL for that thread:
    http://forums.adobe.com/message/2974532#2974532
    Removing all remnants of drivers usually includes editing the registry.  I haven't come across instructions of what to do in that regard.  I uninstalled CS3 (my most recent PS version) and uninstalled all plugins except Portraiture by Imagenomic.  Portraiture crashes Photoshop a lot when I use it.  After installing CS3 I defragged my drives then ran CCleaner and cleaned the registry.  After uninstalling CS5 I defragged again and reinstalled it.
    There is something badly wrong with my system, but it only shows up when using PS CS5.  Is there a diagnostic for driver conflicts?
    This is my last system running Windows XP.  I plan on retiring it as soon as I can bring my latest build up to snuff.  I'm dreading installing Office 2007 on the now PC and having activation problems.  I want to make sure Office works on the new PC before decommissioning the one this thread is about.  I'm also waiting for Dreamweaver CS5.  DW 8 won't run on the new Windows 7 64-bit PC.  I ordered it four days ago and can't get a response from Newegg.  I should have had it today, but my order is still showing "charged"!
    Computers-R-Fun, aren't they?

  • 14gb image + quick select = appcrash on CS6 and CS5

    So how do I troubleshoot this? Pretty much the first time I've come up with something that will predictably crash PS over and over.
    Not sure if any of this helps:

    Na, just a .5ft pixel res mosaic of Presque Isle PA. Lake Erie needs a bit of a touch up and I thought it would be nice to have at it in one file. Looks like I'll have to do it in pieces or not use quick select?

  • Quick  selection tool problem on windows via parallels on mac book pro

    Of course I am new here.  I am going through lessons (Classroom in a book) and get to lesson 3 to the point of cropping the image, the quick select tool  works.  After cropping I get the message:  Microsoft Visual C++ Runtime Error..., This application has requested the Runtime to terminate in an unusual way.  Please contact ...  Is it called crashing if now Photoshop closes down?  Of course I googled the issue, cleaned my registry and read a multitude of opinions and advice, deciding to just work around the problem by 'saving as' at appropriate moments.  I have done that lesson now often enough to know it in my sleep, however I am proceeding with the next lessons.  I am NOT very computer literate, so simplistically:  what is the problem, and who do I ask to fix it for me.
    Friendly greetings to all you talented people - Rose

    Can you assign more memory to the virtual machine (via the Parallels configuration menus)?
    Photoshop CS5 has had an update recently, 12.0.1.  If Help - About in Photoshop is showing 12.0.0 you should run the updater (Help - Updates...).
    It may be that the OpenGL drivers in Parallels aren't up to the requirements of Photoshop.  It's quite challenging to get OpenGL right in a virtual machine environment, and the virtualization companies are furiously releasing new versions with more and more graphics capabilities just so gamers will buy their software over the competition's.  Try disabling the OpenGL feature via Edit - Preferences - Performance and see if that helps.

  • Quick Select Issue

    When I choose quick select after I outline an object it creates squares and circles inside of the object outlined. I have no control over what is being outlined. This creates a huge problem and I have no idea why it's happening. I've watched videos and haven't seen this issue. Even if I try and de-select these areas it just deletes the whole area that I was attempting to select. What's going on?

    Jeff,  I updated the NVIDIA driver and QuickSelect is no longer crashing PS.  Thank you very much for steering me in the right direction.  I appreciate your help very much.

  • Quick selection tool not working correctly

    I am trying to extract a portion of a photo...i tried using the selection tool to extract the portion on another picture, and it worked GREAT!
    Now i'm trying to use it in another photo and the refine image tool isn't extracting it into a new layer like it did with the other one!
    is there something that i may have clicked or turned off that is preventing me from making this extraction??

    Hello,
      Could you be more specifc as to what you are doing here?
      You mention using selections tools, including the Quick Selection tool, but these tools only create selections, they do not extract the material you have selected. A selection is like highlighting text in a word processor, after you have highlighted the text you can copy/paste it or modify it, but simply highlighting it doesn't do anything. Same with selections, once you have created a selection with a tool like Quick Selection you can how copy/paste it to a new image or perform adjustments to just that area.
      I'm not sure what you mean by the "refine image tool", we don't have anything by that name. However, we do have a Refine Edge option that helps to make cleaner edges to your selection.

  • Why there is no quick selection function in adobe photoshop 6.0.1 [was: cs6.01]?

    Some one my help? why there is no quick selection function in my adobe photoshop 6.0.1 [was: cs 6.01]?

    What John Waller just said.
    And your screen shows it is the archaic, totally superseded Photoshop 6.01, and that was in no way associated with any CS (Creative Suite), so your question title indicating you had "cs6.0.1" was massively and annoyingly misleading and wrong.
    You must be running an ancient machine if that oldie runs on it.
    What's worse you are running an illegal, pirated and hacked version of Photoshop.  You are breaking the law.
    Please don't come back here until you have bought a legal copy of Photoshop.  

  • Magic Quick Selection Tool NOT working right. Help please?

    We've used the magic quick selection tool lots and most of the time it works well.
    It's very slow.............. v  e r y slow and I'm wondering if there's a patch to download from Adobe or
    what to do to fix this.  We have pictures to edit and it's making the editing torture.  Please help?
    Thank you so much. tkccvalentine

    It's the Quick Selection Tool in Photoshop Elements 9 and I'm trying to get the background and make it another layer so I can even out the color of the background then bring down the transparency.  Not sure if that makes sense.  I'm new to this....  Sometimes the area it will grab can go ...not fast.. but not slow.  Sometimes it's like it's just messed up and literally takes 30 seconds to process each move.  I rebooted my computer and re opened it and it helped a little.  It's not clear what causes it when it messes up and when it doesn't.  Just frustrating.  It's probably user error because I'm so new at Photoshop.   Thanks for your input.   I really appreciate it.

  • Change the background with a bunch of kids? Quirky quick selection tool?

    Main Objective:  How can I change the background behind a bunch of kids? My quick selection tool is quirky! Like the HS kids in the pic….
    The 2nd photo is what I am looking to do.
    When I try the quick selection tool, it's all wonky & quirky now.  I can't select little bits any more! It just basically takes the whole stinkin' page! What did I do?!  Are there defaults?
    On watched video number 85 today, I tried to use my stylus and the bamboo pad. (Good grief; that's another story...it moves & I'm not even touching the pad; what's up with that?! Way too confusing, so I gave up!)
    Anyway..this is what I need.
    What is easier for me to remove the background?  The kids?  Pretend I didn't say yes to help with this project?
    All the video tutorials on how to remove backgrounds is always on a perfect object...not a real life mess of a class.  So... HELP!!!
    Please.
    This is WAY over my head; but I'm trying. Really.
    On a mac with CC membership.

    You may find it easier to select the kids than the background. Instead of copying to new layer, create a mask, then you can add or remove as you like.
    In the top tool bar click the icon in the middle to add to selection. Then use your option key to remove.
    When you are nearing done, you can then refine the mask. If necessary you can use the other selection tool for straight lines, large areas etc. For tight places you may prefer to use the quick mask tool (lowercase q)
    Take your time, you will get it. And like I said, using a mask will let you take a breather. It can help walking away for a bit.

  • Quick Selection Tool doesn't work

    This has probably been addressed, but can't seem to find it.  It's driving me nuts.
    In Elements 6.0,  I have found the Quick Selection Tool quite useful.  However, I often find that it does not work; not creating an outlined selection.
    Have others found this?  Do I have some setting incorrect?  Is this an Adobe bug?  I have reverted to all default settings, but no dice.
    Thanks!

    Ya, I can't make it work. I've watched a million videos online with people that seem to think it's amazing, but I have spent HOURS trying to cut out a simple image that would have taken me ten seconds on my ancient CS2. After owning this new product for two months I am still opening up my old version of Photoshop to extract images. Every time I start outlining something, the Quick Selection Tool goes all over the place, and when I do finally get it somewhat close to outlining what I want, I can't figure out how to save what I want. Lame.

  • Quick Selection Tool

    I am having a problem with the quick selection tool.  When using this tool, the object that you select should automatically find the full edges of the object.  When I use this tool it does not do that, and I am wondering if there is anything else that I need to change or select for the tool to work properly?
    Thank you!

    Try resetting the tool first.
    Select the tool. Look for the down pointing arrow to the right of the tool, click on that. A box will open. Look for another arrow at the top right area and click on that. Go down the list and select reset tool. I am not positive but I think you have to restart PS for it to take effect.

  • Quick Selection Tool Problem - Cursor Stuck in Subtract

    Hey All,
    I somehow caused the quick selection tool default to be "on always" in the subtraction (minus - ) position; I am able to access the add (plus +) position by using the shift key , but this causes some problems as those are not the defaults keys for this tool or program for that matter.
    Can anyone help?
    2Divman

    Be sure the tool isn't set to subtract in the options bar. Otherwise, try resetting the tool by right- or control-clicking the blue arrow just to the right of the tool preset (under the blue PS icon in the below screenshot) to reset the tool.

  • Quick selection tool,How to programme the function of this tool?

    Recently, I intend to extract from a picture on the edge of oil tank。I found  that this quick selection tool  can meet my
    requirement。 But I do not know how to achieve it in VC ++ 。I would like to ask somebody who knows it???thanks~~~~~

    The question doesn't make sense in the SDK forum either.
    Why are you trying to control the tool programmatically?
    And I don't think you really can control that tool programatically - it's meant to be interactive.
