Windows 8 and Photoshop CS6 - Blinking Window, Fix?

I have a new desktop computer with Windows 8 on it with a 1 TB hard drive and about 12 gb of RAM. I installed PS CS6 and it works but for some reason the application windows blinks off and on when I am using it. Any ideas on how to fix this problem? Thank ya very much! Peace, Kirsten

Thank you both for your help...I have two questions related to this problem. The first one is do I lose any functionality by moving to the basic setting? That question is more out curiousity than anything. I also was reading that sometimes this problem in Windows 8 can be caused by video card drivers not being up to date. Do you all think updating my drivers maybe a good idea before trying the basic fix? I had assumed (bad idea) that because it was a new computer the drives would be up to date but from reading, I learned that is not always the case. Thanks again. Kirsten

I just bought a new Mac Book Pro and did a migration of the content of the old laptop (also a Mac Book Pro) to the new one. Now I cannot start Photoshop CS6. When I am starting it I have a window "Adobe photoshop CS6 extended" opening requesting a connexion. When I am entering my password for the connexion the software crashes. How can I fix the problem?

Migrating, transferring or copying is DEMANDING trouble, not just asking for it.
Always install from scratch, from the original media,

That camera model has been supported since ACR 8.3 and it is most certainly supported by ACR 8.6 and ACR 8.7 (beta).
Either you have damaged, corrupt image files, or a faulty Photoshop and/or ACR installation.
If there are no privacy issues, you can post one of your files to the FTP service of your choice (such as Dropbox or yousendit.com), post the link to it, and someone here can take a look at it for you.

You need to run a platform swap:

Until it's through, you can use the trial version.

Bug? Can't Drag and Hold Mouse Photoshop CS6 on Windows 8 RP

I am having a few problems with the current Photoshop CS6 on Windows 8RP.
At first it was only the tilit shift and iris but it turns out it's everything to do with when you need to hold the mouse button and drag. It seems that the problem is isolated to Photoshop as other Adobe programmes are working fine plus other programmes and Windows generally is also fine.
I am using an Nvidia GTX580 with Windows 7 drivers until the proper version comes which is late of course!
Plus, I uninstalled my Intellipoint and keyboard drivers too and connected a generic mouse via USB and I still get the same problem.
Weirdly though, every (let's say) 20 times I try to drag and hold after constantly restarting Photoshop it works once then I have to try again a load of times by restarting the application.
Any ideas?
Joe

I'm running photoshop cs6 on windows 8 RP 64 bits and haven't seen that problem
and i didn't see that on the consumer preview either.
This is the driver i'm using:
http://www.nvidia.com/object/win8-64bit-296.17-preview-driver.html
Just watch that windows update doesn't try to sneak in there own driver.
It happened to me twice until i changed the automatic updates to notify
and also watch that doesn't happen with your monitor profile as well.
The updated Nvidia drivers for rp are supposed to be released sometime this coming week.
Do you have any third party plugins or do you have the scriptlistener installed?
Did you try resetting the photoshop preferences or difference modes under the Advanced setting for the the graphics processor under preferences>preformance in photoshop?

Just purchased photoshop cs6 for windows and received installation disk.

Just purchased photoshop cs6 for windows and received installation disk. Where do you find the serial number on the disk? What should the serial number start with? The disk was in the original box and I see a number that start with 910.....
The box was in a brown envelope and there is barcode sticker on the back with more numbers. Where should I look for the actual serial number.

No. You have to call up and do a platform swap:

Windows 8 Photoshop CS6 stopped working

After reinstalling CS6 PhotoShop CS6 on Windows 8 no longer starts. It doesn't start as administrator either

I did reinstall because both photoshop and indesign became unresponsive when starting. I guess an Adobe update rendered both unusable.

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.
