Why doesn't Photoshop CS6 boot into Extended Mode? My GPU is Supported!

Ok got a new laptop, quad core and went to install the trial of Photoshop CS6 Extended and it will not boot into extended mode but rather the original Photoshop mode, and I know this by the splash screen with the circles and the fact there is no 3D menu. A friend did the same on his laptop (different hardware) and his booted into Photoshop CS6 Extended. We used the same Adobe Download Assistant to do our installs. My GPU is the ATI Radeon 6520G and it has support for both Open GL & Open CL. It appears in the Performance preferences with GPU checked and Open CL is selectable in advanced. Now my question is why can't I get into Extended Mode? Why can't we just force it to do so? I have seen this issue all over the place and it seems to be related mostly to ATI/AMD chipsets. Any help is appreciated, I would like to try out the 3D options.
I even tried installing the latest ATI Radeon drivers which are beta 2.7, same issue.
Thanks,
Michael

Did you download the trial version of the software directly from Adobe.com?
What Chris is trying to say is that there's no known reason why the legitimate trial version from Adobe shouldn't enable the 3D features on a system that supports GPU operations, as you've said yours does:

  • Why doesn't Photoshop CS6 recognizes its Twain Driver

    I've downloaded the Twain driver for Photoshop CS6 from Adobe and copied the Twain.plugin file to the Photoshop Plugin directory in Applications. I'm using a Mac with 10.6.8. I then restarted CS6 but there isn't a mention of 'Twain' in the Import menu? So also not my scanner. Which is an Epson Stylus SX130. Why not?

    Is your scanner driver 64-bit?

  • Why doesn't Photoshop CS6 Appear in the CC Desktop App manager?

    Missing CS6 Apps in application manager. Adobe, the app manager has been nothing but problems. Apps never used to dissapear from DVDs or CDs.
    My MacBook Pro is capable of running all CC and CS6 apps.
    So I downloaded photoshop cs6 from creative.adobe.com. When I went to install it said it could't verify my subscription.

    This works as designed. Current versions of the CC app only show the actual CC versions. For the rest refer to this:

  • Why when I install a stand alone trial version of Photoshop CS6 I get extended installation?

    Why when I install a stand alone trial version of Photoshop CS6 I get extended installation? I want only CS6.

    Hi Ilya Nazarenko,
    We would like to inform you that the installer for both Standard and extended version are same, as trial you get Extended version.
    If you have serial number for Photoshop Standard CS6, only then it would turn out to be standard version.

  • Why does my Photoshop Cs6 not let me view my Nikon D7100 photos in Camera Raw and photoshop when it does my Nikon D700?

    Why does my Photoshop CS6 not allow me to download my Nikon D7100 photos into camera raw and photoshop when it does my NIkon d700?

    Camera Raw plug-in | Supported cameras
    Camera Raw-compatible Adobe applications
    D700 first supported in Adobe Camera Raw (ACR) 5.1 (CS6 ships with ACR 7.0)
    D7100 first supported in ACR 7.4
    You probably just need to update Camera Raw in CS6 via Help > Updates.
    Confirm which ACR version you have installed via Help (Win) or Photoshop (Mac) > About Plug-In > Camera Raw.

    Hi. 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.

  • Why doesn't Photoshop touch ask for access to local photos on my iPad so I can grant access and edit?

    Why doesn't Photoshop touch ask for access to local photos on my iPad so I can grant access and edit?

    That's odd. Does this mean that you want to have the request or that you can't see the photos even though you enabled it over the privacy/photos?
    If you enable it - it's not necessary to get the request. If you want the request the safest way to get it back is to reset the privacy settings by going to iPad settings/General/Reset/Reset Location & Privacy
    thanks,

  • Photoshop CS6 Subscription (non Extended) Edition not available?

    Hello,
    I have just purchased the Photoshop CS6 Subscription Edition (not the Ps CS6 Extended Version).
    However, following the download link under My Orders, I am only offered to download + install the Ps CS6 Extended Version (see screenshot below)
    For whatever reason, the Adobe Application Manager does not differ between the Ps CS6 Standard and Extended Versions.
    When opening the installed Ps CS6, it comes up in Trial Mode, a Nag Screen asking for Licencing. When using my Adobe ID (used for the purchase), I am prompted with a Serial Number Request.
    ==> Please advice how I can obtain my purchased product.
    Thanks, Frank

    Hi Rasmus,
    indeed contacting support solved my issue - after 90 min of patience.
    Basically (on Win7) the "fix" involved changing your local settings to english, reboot, uninstall all Adobe Photoshop Versions, reboot, Use Adobe Download Manager to download and install Photoshop "Standard" edition.
    Then, launch it first time out of Adobe AppliManager.
    The splash screen now shows Photoshop CS6 (no more Extended) and the registration is done automatically in the background.
    I switched back my locale Win7 setting to non-english and things worked fine. I assume the locale setting change is not really necessary, but do uninstall all Photoshops before you try...
    Cheers, Frank

  • Yosemite install won't boot into any mode

    Really sorry if this has been covered before but I spent a good time searching and couldn't find any existing posts with symptoms to the same extent.
    I've got a 2008 iMac 27" and have the latest version of Yosemite installed (10.10.1 I guess). I upgraded to Yosemite probably 2-3 weeks ago and everything has been fine. Then yesterday when I woke it up from sleep it effectively froze - no mouse or keyboard input. So I did a reset by holding down the power button, and when I turned it back on it went to the apple logo boot screen with a progress bar that gets to just below 50% and stuck there. I've restarted quite a few times and left it running up to six hours and still it doesn't boot.
    Now this is similar to the issue here - OSX Yosemite won't boot after install on mid 2010 iMac - except I am unable to boot into any mode, and the only startup keys accepted are the P-RAM reset. It won't boot into recovery mode (command+R), safe mode (Shift), startup drive select mode (Option), diagnostics mode (D)... nothing
    I've booked into a Genius Bar appointment when the Apple stores reopen after Christmas, but I'm hoping that is a last resort and to be honest I'm unsure what they can do for me except to say it's a lost cause.
    Are there any suggestions on what could be happening and why it's ignoring the startup modes? I would have suggested the keyboard not being recognised except the P-RAM command works perfectly, so it's obviously seeing it. I'm a little scared that because it won't let me into a boot device menu (which must operate independent of any HDD) then there's an issue ahead of that in the boot sequence, so possibly the motherboard is shot...
    Sorry if I seem a little desperate. I had a HDD crash two years ago to the day (great Christmas present Apple) and it kind of puts a dampener on things.
    Happy holidays and I'm grateful for any help that anyone can offer

  • Hard drive won't boot into safe mode

    My mid 2010 Macbook Pro has suddenly decided to not boot up after installing BitDefender and running a scan.
    I installed it on a whim when I saw minor malware that hijacked Safari, and decided to run a scan. While I was working on Photoshop, the scan must have finished because all of my windows disappeared and I was left with my desktop and the spinning gray loading at the bottom of my screen. I waited 20 minutes, realized it wasn't going anywhere and force shut down the Macbook by power button.
    Now, I cannot successfully get it past the grey apple loading screen. Attempting to boot into safe mode still leaves it at the same screen. Tried to reset the PRAM, still can't get past the loading screen. I still have my OS disk, however it is Snow Leopard and my current is Mavericks and I'm unsure if it is a wise idea.
    15 inch mid 2010 Macbook Pro running OS X Mavericks, how dead in the water am I and how much would this cost me to "fix"?

    Use the original Snow Leopard installation disk and start the MBP as if you were going to reinstall the OSX.  Early in the process you should see a menu bar on the top of the display.  Click on UTILITIES and from the dropdown menu select Disk Utility.  Run Disk Utility>First Aid, Verify and Repair.  If it is not successful, the HDD will have to be replaced.
    Ciao.

  • OS hangs at grey startup screen, won't boot into safe mode

    I rebooted my G5 this morning and when it came back up, it hung on the grey screen with the Apple logo and the spinning 'gear' progress bar. I tried rebooting several times, but that didn't help. I tried booting from the install DVD (which it did) and ran disk utility (both verify & repair on the start up drive and on permissions. It claims to have found permission errors and fixed them.) I hunted for answers online and tried to boot into safe mode, which did not work.
    Someone mentioned booting into verbose mode and I saw that the load sequence was choaking on the login.
    What could the problem be and how can I fix it?

    Hi Yosarian,
    Minor permissions repairs are no concern: The good news is that your data is probably OK.
    Three things can be happening: Some of the machines boot settings are corrupted, or the OS files or settings are damaged, or there's a hardware problem.
    Resetting the machines power management chip, called a PMU or SMU, depending on your computer, and the PRAM will resolve machine boot settings problems. Run a google search for your model of Mac plus reset pmu OR smu for instructions. After that, reboot your computer and hold Option-Apple-P-R down as you power on. Hold all 4 keys until you hear the startup chime a second time.
    You can test your hardware with the grey disk that came with it that ays AHT in little letters. Boot from the CD and run the extended test. Be patient: AHT can take a long time to boot and run.
    If you reset your PMU and PRAM and pass a hardware diagnostic but still can't boot normally, in safe mode, or in single-user mode, the problem is system software. Reinstall from your latest installer, checking off Archive and Install and Preserve Users and Settings from the Options screen available at the screen where you choose which disk to install to.
    Good luck,
    John

  • Can I ssh to a Mac that's booted into Safe Mode?

    I'm needing to ssh to a Mac that's been booted into Safe Mode (I'm already able to ssh to it in normal boot mode, and I know how to boot it into Safe Mode from the command line, i.e. sudo nvram boot-args="-x", then sudo reboot).
    I can't just test this for myself, as it has to work first time, otherwise I'll be locked out of the remote Mac. If ssh would still work in Safe Mode, the plan is to then ssh to it and issue the command to set it back to normal boot mode (with sudo nvram boot-args="") and then reboot... job done.
    Ideally, but not too important, I could VNC to it in Safe Mode instead, but ssh would do fine.
    Does anyone know (for sure!) please?
    In case anyone wondered, I'm wanting to do the Safe Boot because I'm told it can cure an issue with Adobe CS apps freaking out and locking up, crashing etc. I want to try this over the w/e, and have no physical access to the Mac. I've already set it to power on later (via pmset) - something I do routinely.
    I thought an answer to this would be easy to find, but after Googling I've drawn a blank. Can't find it in any Apple docs either.
    Thanks in advance!

    If this was already covered somewhere else, I
    apologize. I did some browsing for this topic but had
    no luck finding anything...
    Anyhoo, I'm trying to log in to my wife's B&W G3
    (running Jaguar) from my G4 (running 10.4.2) using
    secure shell but she doesn't have a password set up
    on her computer. When I enter the ssh command in
    Terminal, it asks for a password — I don't enter
    anything and just hit the Return key. It returns with
    a massage saying "Permission denied, please try
    again." What can I do to log in w/o setting up her
    machine with a password first?
    If you want to use SSH securily I would suggest you disable password authenticaiton altogher. If you setup public key authentication it is more secure and better than using passwords anyway.
