    I have had a slight issue with my Intuos 4 (with latest supplied drivers) in Photoshop CC 2014.2, in which there’s a slight delay between a pen stroke and the stroke appearing on the canvas. Drawing with the mouse doesn’t exhibit this effect, and other drawing programs haven’t been affected.

    I reset my preferences file, and the issue seems to have been resolved. I’m not seeing any other differences in terms of performance. I appreciate this blog post.

    I keep getting an error message with CS5.1:

    An unexpected and unrecoverable problem has occurred. Photoshop will now exit.

    I downloaded the Java, and it looks like most of the other programs in the suite will load (Dreamweaver, InDesign, Illustrator, etc). Unfortunately, Photoshop is something I use every day, but it’s not working. I’ve restarted my system already to see if that helped, but it didn’t. I also ran Adobe updater, but it didn’t find anything for Photoshop.

    Hi,

    After downloading Java 10.10 my photoshop 5 no longer opens, but looks like . It says ‘unexpected error and unrecoverable error. Photoshop will now exit.’

    The only way out is to press quit.

    It looks like DW, IL & Adobe Pro all still work.

    have a new problem with Photoshop and I wonder if you could help resolve it as I am still using CS5.

    Just upgraded my iMac 27 to OS to Yosemite version 10.10. Looked fine.

    Then working in Lightroom 4.4 I tried to send a photo to Photoshop CS5 for further processing. Message came back saying I needed to download and install Jave ForOSX2014.001.dmg.

    Did this.

    Then tried again LR to CS5 and got very helpful message. “An unexpected and unrecoverable problem has occurred. Photoshop will now exit “ Quit

    Tried opening CS5 directly……same result.

    Tried opening iPhoto (OK) and sent an image to CS5 from there (used to be automatic by clicking edit) …with the same result.

    As I use CS5 all the time I’m a bit up the creek.

    Any ideas?

    I’m having the same issue as Tallken described. When using default keyboard shortcuts I need to click another tool in order for them to start working again. After clicking a new tool the shortcuts work a few times but stop again. I’ve followed the preference reset instructions from the link provided to Tallken, but the problem is still there. I’m running the latest version of Photoshop CS6 on Yosemite. Everything is up to date. Any other trouble shooting options?

    I just bought the Dreamweaver CS6 online and my MAC has been upgraded to OS X Yosemite. I tried to install the Dreamweaver CS6 on my MAC, but the .exe file keeps saying that ‘You can’t open the application “Dreamweaver_12_LS16.exe” because Microsoft Windows applications are not supported on OS X’. Could I ask what should I do now??? I am so confused. Thanks for any help

      Hi Victoria, it looks like you purchased a windows version of Dreamweaver CS6. Older licenses, CS6 and earlier, are platform specific (and language specific). Note: Creative Cloud licenses are cross-platform and cross-language. You will need to do a platform swap and exchange your windows license for a mac license. I’ll have someone contact you about doing that.

    I have been running Adobe CS5 in my MacBook Air for three years, trough software updates through Mac OS Mavericks without a problem.
    When I installed Yosemite two days ago Photoshop — was up to date — would not start and asked to download and install Java JRE for 10.10, which I did.
    Now Photoshop tries to open but immediately get a message “An unexpected and unrecoverable problem has occurred. Photoshop will now exit.” — it never opens.

    I had upgraded to Mavericks and I wanted to see if the same issues are being discovered upgrading to Yosemite before I waste the time upgrading. I noticed two problems that the WhiteWindowWorkaround.plugin didn’t resolve. One of them was that the names for the color swatches wouldn’t pop up when I hovered the cursor over them. The other problem was the issue with the brush tool. I could brush a few times but it would stick and I would have to tap the screen again to get the tool to respond. The work I do switches from selection tools to brushes very fast. The lack of cooperation between Adobe and Apple have made it difficult for me to continue working.

    I ultimately had to downgrade just to get Adobe PS CS6 to work better but still don’t have a 100% flawless program. I doubt I will upgrade to Yosemite until I see that you update adobe PS CS6 to work properly with Apple’s newer operating systems. From what I am reading here the problems are the same and the fix isn’t any better.

    Jeffrey, on the link you provided regarding Whitewindows plugin, there is one note:

    NOTE: This step is for Photoshop CC (2013) and CS6 on only. Additionally, the plug-in is not compatible with Mac OS 10.10.x (Yosemite).

    So if it’s not compatible with Yosemite, why do you offer this as solution?

    Thanks…

    CS5.5 with Yosemite.

    When I type in Photoshop … it’s super slow! Everything else appears to be ok so far but typing is slow! That could explain the people having issues with shortcuts.

    It’s not just when I type using the type tool, it’s like all typing … if I type to find a font, if I change the name of a layer … even when I go to save a file!

    Hello! I have just done a clean install of OS X Yosemite. I own a Mac license of Creative Suite 5. I installed Photoshop and Illustrator (and of course Bridge, Extension Manager, and Camera RAW install too with that selection). I ensured prior to installation that I had the latest Java runtime, no problems there (though I wish I didn’t have to install Java!) I am however having a continual issue with updating my CS5 apps (even after I have activated and launched the applications successfully… and rebooted my machine several times for good measure!) Whenever I run the Adobe updater, the updates appear to download (I can see my capped bandwidth disappearing!), but right when it goes to install, it errors out thus: “There was an error downloading this update. Please quit and try again later.” I have tried multiple times over a couple of days to update my CS5 apps, to no avail 🙁 The updater worked fine on OS X Mavericks, but I keep getting this same error message on OS X Yosemite. And I know the updates are downloading too… ~200MB each time I try!! I realize CS5 isn’t officially supported on this OS, but I’d love to get it going, as I can’t afford anything in the way of upgrades currently. The updater indicates I should contact Customer Support if this error continues to occur… hence this post! Thanks in advance for any light you may be able to shed upon my particular problem 🙂

They all installed perfectly, and now my built-in Help > Updates confirms my CS5 apps are up-to-date 🙂 Thanks again for your help, I had no idea one could download these off your site, instead of using the updater!

    I did a clean install of OS X 10.10 Yosemite, and restored content from Time Machine. The rest of the apps work fine, but Photoshop CS6 (normal) is performing abominably. Simply zooming in 1x takes about 20 seconds to register, after producing the pinwheel. Selecting another brush, switching between open documents, all produce the pinwheel, and up to a minute of delay. The brush strokes themselves lag about 2-5 seconds, and many times the entire program does not respond at all (i.e, I have a regular cursor, not a brush, and though Photoshop is selected as the active program, I cannot interact with it at all when it does this. This usually lasts for about 5 minutes). It performed phenomenally in Mavericks. At this point the program is essentially unusable. I’m a concept artist by trade so this is a serious issue for me. Any insight would be greatly appreciated.

    I’ve read the various comments and am struggling. I downloaded the Legacy Java version as recommended and all worked well including Photoshop. That is until today – two days later – when Photoshop says it has an unrecoverable error and goes no further. All of my other CS5 Creative Suite apps appear to be working. I have re-installed the Java runtime but not yet re-installed Photoshop.
    Ideas?

    My MacBook died this weekend. I’m trying to load CS3 onto my iMac (27-inch, Late 2013). I still have the original disc. Everything seems to do well until I go to actually load CS3. Then I get the error “Required Resources are missing”. I’ve read through various comments with other problems, but haven’t found this issue.
    I tried installing prior to, and then again after, upgrading to Yosemite.
    Need to know what to do, now. Thanks.

    the keyboard shortcuts, such as zooming in/out, undo etc, intermittently do not respond.
    I have to click on another tool in the tool bar to get the keyboard to respond again.
    The problem returns intermittently and seemingly not as a result of the Auto Save function.
    Any of the plug in does not work
    Yosemite
    Imac 2013
    Wacom Bamboo Pen
    Photoshop cs6

    I upgraded it, reinstall tablet, added all the plug in on this forum and any i could find in other forums… and still i cannot use shortcut in photoshop. It just stop responding…

    I would be grateful for any lead I could follow to fix as I animate in photoshop daily and i use the brush, erase, zoom in out and every 2 seconds… my workflow is stupidly slow now

    When I upgraded to Yosemite my PS CC (14.2.1) started acting funny when working with my Intuos Pro Tablet: shortcuts didn’t work properly, the program did get stuck with one tool and I had to click outside the canvas to carry on working, etc….
    After a few days struggling with this issue I re-installed PS CC and the problem was still there, but I decided to try the whitewindows plug-in (http://helpx.adobe.com/photoshop/kb/photoshop-menus-turn-white-mac.html) even though someone said it is not necessary with Yosemite.
    Well, IT WORKED.

    Hello Jeffery,

    I’ve installed Yosemite as an upgrade and running CS6. Noticing some of the issues others have, I installed the WhiteWindow file and restored Preferences.

    Unfortunately, when working with brushes, there is a slight lag when going back and forth between the color picker and actually brushing. I swipe the brush and it takes a brief moment for the stroke to happen.

    Any advice would be helpful.
    My system is quite capable of handing this and it worked well with Mountain Lion.
    27″ iMac – Late 2012
    3.4 GHz i7
    32 GB RAM
    2GB Graphics

    A little bit more info: Mouse works quickly without lag in Photoshop. I am using a Wacom Bamboo tablet with all the updated software and drivers. This might be a case Wacom and Photoshop not liking each other at the moment?

    Hi guys, after updated to yosemite I’ve got very odd problem with photoshop (cc2014.2.1). After i press cmd+Q photoshop quits but then starts over again by itself. Only way that i find to quit is force quit. Maybe somebody have same issue.

    When we installed Yosemite a few days ago, various problems began to happen.

    I use a Cintiq Companion Hybrid, and I just updated it in hopes that the driver was the main problem. It only helped slightly, but Photoshop still didn’t work properly.

    My problem is the immense lag that Yosemite has caused to Photoshop’s (I use CS6 by the way) performance. The biggest issue was using the tools. The lag was very, very unpredictable and would be the same no matter the document size. The brush tool and paint bucket tool is the worst of them all, once taking 30 minutes for a single, no-pressure opacity/size change stroke to process. A relatively short one too.

    Is re-installation the key to solving my problem? I already installed the white windows plugin.

    CS6 InDesign, Photoshop and Fireworks worked fine in Yosemite. Illustrator, Flash and Dreaweaver would not launch. Alert window directs to use Java 6. Same failure with CS 5.1. Forced to restore OS 10.9.5.1 and all applications.

    Jeffrey, Please help. I have posted this previously but it may have got lost. I have uninstalled CS5 and re-installed after installing Yosemite trying both your link and my CS5 UPGRADE disc. In both cases I can open Photoshop and Bridge but in order to use Bridge for my Nikon D7000, an update was needed. Updating resulted in a download error message – ‘there was an error downloading this update please quit and try again later.’ I am not techie savvy and don’t know how to attached the relevant screen shot. I am desperate as I need Photoshop urgently.

    Hi!

    After I upgraded the OS X Yosemite, I can’t open my photoshop’s filter gallery any more.
    I don’t know if the problem is about the new MAC system or photoshop?

    Thanks!

    I can’t even open a file with CS5 anymore. Every time I try, Photoshop freezes and my Mac restarts. It only does this with Photoshop and not with any of my other applications. Is anybody else having this problem?

    For the unrecoverable problem in cs5 after upgrade to yosemite, I did the following steps to get yhe photoshop cs5 working again:
    I did not have to uninstall. I selected the photoshop icon, and then right click in this icon, go to “show package contents” -> contents -> and move info.plist into the trash.
    After that, try to open photoshop again. It worked like a charm. I hope I can help some desperate one, like I was.

    Hi.
    I’m having problems with Photoshop (as well as Illustrator, both CC 2014 version) after upgrading to Yosemite. Every time I try to open filter gallery in Photoshop, an error message saying unable to continue pops up and the only choice left is to click ok. I doubt it’s a problem regarding photoshop filters because when in Illustrator, I’m also unable to apply effects categorized under photoshop, while those categorized under illustrator still work.
    Tried uninstall then reinstall both PS & AI but nothing changes.
    Any suggestions? Thanks!

    Has anyone else had a problem with “Save As…” dialog boxes not dismissing after saving in inDesign? I am able to save my file correctly, the dialog box disappears as normal, and then it reappears almost instantly over my work. The dialog box can be moved around normally by grabbing the title bar and dragging, but it cannot be dismissed and the buttons are unresponsive.

    I installed CS5.5 freshly on a fresh install of Yosemite. I have run all available updates. inDesign 7.5.3

    Thank you for your support efforts.

    I use cs 6 on my new macbook pro i7. When starting bridge I get a message that there´s a problem with the cache memory, and that I should try to empty the central cache. When doing so, the program freeze and stops working, forced quitting necessary. Now I tried to renaming a bunch of files on my cf-card before copying them to my external drive. The program started working, but then the files disapperad from the bridge window. Bridge keeps working/thinking, but nothing happens. Reboot does not work.
    Also, more often that not it´s now impossible to copy files from my cf card to external nas hard drive. Two-three files goes over and then it stops.

    Unfortunately I’ve encountered some problems with CC after updating my IMac (2013) to Yosemite.
    In the beginning everything seems to be okay. But after opening a couple of photo’s first the picture is completely disordered. It suddenly (It just occurs) loks like some kind of collage, containing several photographs (which some I openend in Photoshop a long time ago) or just a variation of colors. Note; the little preview at the layer-block still shows the original picture.
    After a short while, the whole working area (The picture + the grey field) turn completely black.
    For all this time I can still use my computer normally, the tools in Photoshop still ‘work’.

    I’ve tried updating the software, but CC then comes with ‘error code 1’.
    What can I do to solve this? It’s getting really annoying, for I have to work through a lot of photographs.

    (Apologies if there are any misspeld words or sentences in this message, English is not my mother tongue. (Netherlands) )

    Thanks in advance for any answers which might help me!

    I have installed DreamWeaver CC 2014 twice (uninstall, reboot, reinstall) on OS X Yosemite.

    Install goes OK, but clicking it to launch it just blinks and nothing happens; it will not launch, period. There is no error message of any kind and I can find nothing in the console log.

    Hi Jeffrey,

    A small question. In your screenshot, the text layer “Add your hero t…” has another font then the other layers. In my version this happens to every other layer (some text layers, shape layer, pixel layer etc). Is it a bug or some feature?

    Thank you in advance
    Kindest regards

    I am having the same problem with keyboard shortcuts not working, or working only sporadically. This seems to happen most with “X” to switch foreground/background, the brush and clone stamp tools, the move tool, the eraser, the wand, the patch — oh heck, it happens with every tool I use frequently. I am using a Wacom Intuos Pro (although I don’t know how that would affect the keyboard), a wireless keyboard, iMac (circa 2009 or 10), and Yosemite. I’m using Photoshop CC 2014, latest update, and I’ve installed the “whitewindow” plugin. I’ve trashed preferences numerous times on PS, uninstalled and reinstalled, uninstalled and reinstalled the Wacom driver numerous times, and nothing works. Clicking on keyboard shortcuts frequently results in no action, or in PS selecting the previous tool I used.

      Have you accidentally enabled Mouse Keys? Select System Preferences>Accessibility then select “Mouse & Trackpad” Is Enable Mouse Keys enabled?

      If so, uncheck it. Then click on [Options…] in the same dialog and make sure “Press the Options Key five times to toggle Mouse Keys” is unchecked.

      Photoshop CS5 runs but hasn’t been extensively tested on Yosemite. You should create a partition and install Yosemite and your software to make sure it works nicely for you needs with your hardware and drivers.

    I think Adobe has a file sharing issue with Yosemite. We share files at work from Mac to Mac. We all have Yosemite now. We can “save as” and create a new document in the shared folder, however, when we make changes, we cannot save over it. It tells us the file is “currently in use” and to rename it. As a graphic designer I save a lot and I don’t want to have multiple saved files of the same design. What makes it worse is we can’t delete the old file names as it’s still “currently in use” – This only happens with Adobe products. Everything works fine with other non adobe apps. We’re running off CS6. Anyone have the same issue?.

    Hi Just updated to MacOS 10.10 Yosemite and running Adobe Photoshop CS3. I needed to install Java SE6 to get it to work. Now photoshop will open. Trouble is when I use the file info for a caption. You can caption all you want but you can’t save or cancel the caption the program just won’t respond. The only thing you can do is quit photoshop. As a workaround I use photomechanic for all the caption work and photoshop CS3 for color adjustment. Anybody have a idea to fix the caption part in CS3?

      Photoshop CS6 runs fine on it, however, CS6 wasn’t designed and nor extensively tested to run on this new OS. I don’t recommend that customers upgrade to Yosemite without doing their own testing to ensure that it will work for their needs with their current hardware and drivers.

      If it’s not obvious, you should never upgrade your critical production environment before testing. Always use a separate partition or drive.

      I also recommend that you do a clean install of the OS and your software. I see far too many issues introduced via upgrade and with user migration assistant. (like this one and other permissions related issue)

    Hi –

    I have never seen Photoshop operate slower than on OS X Yosemite 10.10.

    I have a:

    MacBook Pro (Retina, 15-inch, Mid 2014)
    2.8 GHz Intel Core i7
    16 GB 1600 MHz DDR3
    NVIDIA GeForce GT 750M 2048 MB
    1TB SSD

    I have a document created on mavericks which works flawless there. But moving about ONE group containing 10 layers takes about 6 minutes.

    All apps I have incl. other adobe ones, run faster in general on 10.10. But Photoshop is really suffering a whole lot.

    I keep a Mavericks Partition for this exact reason so I am not in a dilemma here… but to claim that the current version of photoshop is a good performer on 10.10 would be downright wrong.

    Yes, Photoshop will launch and create a new document for you. But there is a little bit more to being compatible than that.

    A pretty new discovery – those who are continuously having lag problems and you’re on CS6 Photoshop, Yosemite with a Wacom (or variation), try turning off your rulers in Photoshop. (CMD+R) That cleared up the brush lag. I’m not sure how that works with CC.

    I’m not sure if Adobe is aware of it yet, but there’s part of the problem.

    Hi. Hoping I’ve missed something after reading all comments and applying various remedies without much improvement. I’ve installed Yosemite, upgrading my imac from snow leopard. After install I discovered Photoshop CS5 didn’t work and after reading this post and comments I reinstalled and update JRE as suggested. That resolved the initial problem. However, Photoshop performance is now close to cardiac arrest. Simple tasks like resize an image and Save for Web taking so long that I’ve visibly aged by the time it completes. Any ideas or suggestions? I only use one central drive so scratch disk is local. Would it help to partition or use external drive as scratch disk? I welcome any advice that may help as this is having a huge impact on productivity.

    I really wish I didn’t update to the new operating system “Yosemite” on my Mac Book Pro. I didn’t find out about time machine until it was too late, so I can’t go back to the previous operating system. I’m having a similar problem, but it’s with Adobe Illustrator CS5.1. After I had run the new operating system update, icons from my launch pad had disappeared. I made a new icon for Illustrator and when I clicked on it, I got a window saying that the application has been moved. “The application has been moved, and its path has changed. To update the product configuration, click Update.” I went ahead and clicked update, and like photoshop, the menu box for the tools wasn’t available along with multiple others. I also got an error when trying to open files saying ” This file contains elements that are not managed by plug-ins that are not currently available. You can delete or expand these elements but you cannot manipulate them in other ways.” It also gives me a list of the missing plug-ins at the bottom. I ended up making a new Illustrator icon and the program works fine, but I have to remember every time when I open the program to not hit update.

    I really don’t know what to do here. I’m afraid to even try using the program with my small fix. Help please!

    I am running Photoshop CS5 from the Design Standard Suite. I recently upgraded to Mac OS X 10.10.1 on my 27″ 3.5GHz iMac. I have the same issue on my 13″ Macbook Pro too. When I attempt to save any file type to my Mac Mini Server that is running 10.9.5 that I have administrative access to, I get the error “Could not save as “filename” because write access was not granted. I have tired both Illustrator and InDesign to see if I can create and save files to the same folder on the server that I’m attempting to in Photoshop and I have no problems. I can even reopen them and re-save the files. On the server I have done a permissions repair and restart of the machine. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

      Have you tried creating a new Admin user account and run Photoshop from the new Admin user account: http://blogs.adobe.com/crawlspace/2012/07/photoshop-basic-troubleshooting-steps-to-fix-most-issues.html#Permissions

        Jeffrey…I created a new admin account and tried all the above steps that I had done before with all three Adobe Programs. The results were the same when I tried signing into the server with another server admin login. This issue is baffling to me. I’ve even tried creating and saving various Microsoft Office files and Apple’s iWork Application files, and they all allow me to create and save just like InDesign and Illustrator. Photoshop is the lone software that doesn’t allow me to save. Would you suggest uninstalling the suite and reinstalling? Any advice would be greatly appreciated as now I am saving all work to my desktop and then dragging and dropping onto the server. Obviously that adds an extra step that I would like to eliminate. Thanks again.

    I have upgraded my computer to Yosemite. Ever since doing that I have had problems with Photoshop. I had CS5, after I upgraded to Yosemite, I downloaded CC2014.
    I am constantly having to quit the program because when I open files in the programs, I have issues. The photos are a jumbled mess instead of the actual photo. I can send examples.
    It is very frustrating. How can I correct this problem? I hate wasting time having to constantly quit and reopen the Photoshop.

    Thank you

    After the 10.10.2 update, photoshop CC crashes every time.
    The message which it gives is disabled display drivers and then it just crashes when I click OK. My machine is MacMini 2014, i5 2.6, 8GB, intel iris.

    If anyone knows the reason for this to be happening (all software is up to date), please do tell. It’s kinda urgent to have it working by tomorrow night.

Cant get anyone on the phone and VERY FRUSTRATED with this whole new online subscription system I JUST WANT TO DOWNLOAD AND PAY FOR THE NEWEST VERSION OF PS not RENT or subscribe to anything. I upgraded to Yosemite and nothing but issues with Adobe products. WHY DID I do this and why does Adobe not do anything to fix issues.

    Well, I fixed the issue with pulling another hard drive and that had snow leopard on it and reverting back. I will not upgrade again, Apple needs to fix these things notably for PS as it’s the most used in many industries. I have never had issues with Snow leopard and will only upgrade to Lion or Mavericks if they are running without issues. Made a regular business day when PSD’s needed to be modified a real pain in the $(&%%()#. Never agin !!!!

    Hi,
    I use new imac retina 5k (i7, 16gb ram, r9 m295x) and still encounter some lag issues in CS6/CC. Painting is a bit laggy (rulers turned off) but most problematic is color sampling (with GPU/Picker Ring it’s laggy as hell, sometimes ‘thinking’ animation pops out, just little less laggy with GPU turned off).

    Only thing i could think of is adding some more RAM, but still, my old MBP from late 2008 is faster (Mountain Lion) in Photoshop.

    Help, i need to paint. :<

    Mr Tranberry, I don’t actually have a problem with CS5 under 10.10. I just wanted to commend you for your patience and thoroughness on this forum. You have answered some of the same questions numerous times for different people, instead of just saying “see previous reply” or ignoring their posts altogether. I don’t know if you practice Transcendental Meditation or something, but I wish I knew whatever your trick is! After several years in customer service myself, I must applaud your efforts. In these days of robot-like tech support reps following scripts, it’s refreshing to witness real customer assistance still being administered. As I know that most people only reach out to vendors when there is a problem (I am guilty of this as well), I thought I should make a point to say: Thank you.

    (PS also very much appreciate the Weird Science reference on your blog)

      A system hang or freeze requiring a computer restart usually means a low level failure such as a driver (video card driver, etc), failing/damage hard disk, damaged OS installation, or failing hardware (hard disk, video card, etc). May be time to run to an Apple Store to run some system/hardware diagnostics.

    I have a similar that was inquired about back in January 2015 where we are running Photoshop CS5.5 from the Design Standard Suite. When we attempt to save a Photoshop file to a Mac Mini Server that is running Yosemite 10.10.3 and Server OS X v4.1 that we all have administrative access to, we get the error “Could not save as “filename” because write access was not granted. Both Illustrator and InDesign (and all other apps) work fine. We can even reopen them and re-save the files. On the server I have done a permissions repair and restart of the machine. Mac clients (iMac and MacBook Pro’s) are all on Yosemite 10.10.3. This was working fine when the Server was running OS X 10.9.5 and OS X Server 3.2. The only recent change to the server has been the upgrade to Yosemite and the new Server software. Any updates on why this is happening?

    Would sincerely appreciate some enlightenment on the issue of the shoe-lace bug and other bugs with Yosemite/Cintiq24hd/Photoshop

    These are the current options for Yosemite + Photoshop in terms of brush line quality on Cintiq:
    1) Photoshop CS5= Good:good line quality. Bugs: flickering cursor on corners of palettes, search engines also have flickering when window is above PS, PS crashes when color of frame is selected in full screen. (this is with all updates)
    2) Photoshop CS6 without White window workaround= Good: good line quality. Bugs: delay when using zoom tool with Cintiq. Delays by other keys as well.
    3) Photoshop CS6 with White window= Good: No more delay. Bugs: pressure sensitive lines end with shoelace effect where line does not taper off to minimum and instead awkwardly retains size for a distance.
    4) Photoshop CC: same as Photoshop CS6
    5) Photoshop CC2014 Smoothing on: White-window has been integrated into program resulting in poor line quality but zoom is smooth
    6) Photoshop CC2014 Smoothing off;jagged curves which are horrible and rapid taper which is better than shoelace, but not great.

    As you can see on Yosemite there is currently not a SINGLE bug free option for using Photoshop with a pressure sensitive Cintiq 24hd. According to friends things were not this way on Mavericks.

        “WhiteWindow plug-in is not necessary with CC 2014 and latest Yosemite updates.”
        Thanks for your response.

        I suspect Whitewindow has been integrated into the software itself because I see the effects of it on the shoe-lace bug.

        Either way that is totally irrelevant to the main point.

        As of now with latest Yosemite and Photoshop there is a shoe-lace effect bug when using a pressure sensitive screen such as a Wacom Cintiq 24hd (irrelevant of which wacom driver) The only way to ameliorate the bug somewhat is to turn off smoothing which causes segmented curves.
        I was just bringing up the Whitewindow plug-in because in previous versions such as CS6 if you did not use the plug-in you would not have the shoe-lace bug in Yosemite. However you would have the other problems.

        Here is the bottom line:

        As of now there is NO WAY to draw a simple pressure sensitive straight line in Photoshop CC 2014/ Yosemite without an ugly shoe-lace effect at the tapered end of the line. I would consider that a significant problem. Do you know of any solution other than turning off “smoothing” which messes with the curves?

          Also, as I pointed out, according to my colleagues this problem does not appear in Mavericks – only Yosemite with White Window plugin OR CC2014 with or without the plugin (which as you pointed out is not necessary for CC2014)

            Still hoping for some enlightenment on the shoe-lace end stroke bug issue. Isn’t it noteworthy that Photoshop is incapable of making a decent pressure sensitive brush stroke in all it’s versions other than Cs5 on a Mac running Yosemite?
            Why would it not be a high priority for a painting program to be incapable of its most basic function?

      • Yoel says:
        July 19, 2015 at 12:44 pm

        I would be extremely grateful for some acknowledgment regarding the shoe-lace bug issue in all versions of Photoshop CC.

        There is simply no way to paint a line that has a consistent smooth tapered ending— unless you turn the “smoothing” off which results in jagged curves!

        How could this not be a major issue that Photoshop is incapable of painting a smooth line?

    Controls for lighting effects in CS6 using a iMac (2013) and OS10.10 do not work

    The controls for Filter/Render/lighting effects in CS6 do not work on a one-year old iMac running Yosemite. According to the many forums I have visited it maybe caused by 64b, which needs to be changed to 32b for the Photoshop app. Unfortunately when I do “File get info” the option that used to be there to check 32b is no longer available in Yosemite. I also made sure to changed image to 8bit – does not work
    Opened in CS5 and installed legacy Java SE6. Image is 8bit, but still cannot see Filter/Render/Lighting effects using legacy Java. Please help. Thank you.

    After resetting the preferences, lighting effects are working fine. I disabled the 3rd party plugins, but they were not the problem. Thank you for your help!

    I’m having a terrible time with Photoshop CC on a brand new Retina 5k iMac. The 2.0 or above versions do not work. It says an unrecoverable error has occurred. I have reproduced this 3 times on s clean install of Yosemite with NOTHING else installed. The only version that works is 1.0 and 1.1. Does not do this on my MacBook also with Yosemite.

    One time I got it to run. I restarted the computer and same error…
    Unfortunately uninstalling, removing preferences, and running cleaner did not fix it
    Once that error pops up.I have to erase the hard drive and do.a clean install of Yosemite. I think it may be related to the app store. Updating anything screws up Photoshop CC permanently

    Extremely frustrating.
    Also don’t ever install java on. Yosemite if you hope to run Dreamweaver CC. On one of my many system installs I followed advice to install java first. DW would not open. Again uninstalling java and reinstalling DW did not fix. Had to wipe the system.

    I recently installed Mac OS 10.10.3 on my iMac, installed the newest Driver for my Epson 3800 printer, and then downloaded & installed Photoshop CC v. 14.2.1.
    Photoshop CC itself works perfectly well. When I try to print from Photoshop, however, I get a dialog box saying, “There was an error opening your printer. Printing functions will not be available until you have selected a printer and reopened any documents”. After that happens, the printing options in the Photoshop menu are dimmed out until I close and reopen the program.
    I have tried everything, from simply restarting Photoshop, to turning the Mac off and restarting, to reinstalling the newest Epson Driver, and a dozen variants of the preceding. Nothing works — I still get that same dialog box response each time.
    Curiously, I can still print perfectly well from my copy of Photoshop CS4, as well as from Adobe Acrobat, and from every other program in my computer. Photoshop CC is the ONLY program on my computer that fails.
    Why?

      The 3800 is an ancient printer and wasn’t designed to work with modern OSes, print API, etc.

      Did it work properly prior to upgrading to Yosemite? I don’t recommend that customers upgrade to Yosemite without doing testing to ensure that it will work for their needs with their current hardware and drivers.

      If it’s not obvious, you should never upgrade your critical production environment before testing. Always use a separate partition or drive.

      Also, see this document from Apple on troubleshooting printing on OS X: http://support.apple.com/en-us/HT201539

    After leaving your site yesterday, I found a thoroughly wonderful video made by Juliane Kost (also on the Adobe site) that explained how to reset Photoshop’s Prefs file — and that solved the problem! In other words, the underlying source of the printing problem traced back to ADOBE, not to Epson or Apple.
    So before you dump on everyone else as the source of a problem, perhaps you should first look closer to home for a solution. If I were to follow your directions, I would spend endless hours setting up partitions, running tests, and perhaps spending a thousand dollars on a new printer — and still would have been no closer to resolving the actual problem.

    With IOS 10.10.3 and Lightroom CC, I was unable to import photos from Aperture. I spent several hours with Adobe help trying to accomplish this. Is there a fix in the future. Since Aperture in longer being supported, I would like to migrate to Lightroom.

    Hi,

    Im running on Yosemite 10.10.3 and I am unable to download CS2 program. Is this because the system Im on is too new for the old CS2 program or is there a way around it? Any input would be kindly appreciated! Basically I just want to brush up my skills for a while on illustrator before I go ahead and purchase. Thanks.

    This is a very long thread, tried my best to go through it all, have not seen my issue yet.

    I just upgraded to Yosemite, I have Photoshop CS6.
    When using the spot healing brush, it shares my selection like always, but then I does not just perform the healing and go away like it used to. The shaded part stays there until I click with the brush somewhere else…

    Anyone else having this issue or know of a solution?

    I bought a new MBP with Yosemite 10.10.4 and cannot get PS4 to open. The error message says that Licensing has stopped working
    Error 150:30

    I have the original CD and serial number and I really want to get it working. I don’t have time right now to learn a new version of photoshop. Any help getting it working is much appreciated.

      Try the solution here: https://helpx.adobe.com/x-productkb/global/error-licensing-stopped-mac-os.html

      Usually a reinstall will fix the licensing file that was damaged by the OS update.

        Ok, I had that link before. What was really tripping me up was that after I found the library folder, there was no flexnet publisher to delete. Then when I went to step 2, I kept trying to open the license recovery launcher by double clicking on it rather than doing it through the terminal screen (it won’t let you open it this way saying that “Power PC apps are no longer supported”). For anyone else trying to do the fix, first open the terminal screen. Once I opened the terminal window and typed sudo python (and yes, I confirmed you actually need the space after it for it to work), I had to drag LicenseRecover.py, not LicenseRecoveryLauncher to the terminal window and then after following the directions…..it worked!!!!! Thank you so much. I have been working on this for almost two weeks and it seems to be finally working. Two thumbs up!!!

          New guy here. Having the same License issue. Tried the drag-drop of the python script but get a SyntaxError. Not a heavy-duty user so might have missed an assumed step? Any updates on the method for Yosemite that doesn’t include a re-install?

    Hi,

    I have Photoshop CS6 and I’ve just installed Yosemite. Since that, my toggle dialogue on/off in action doesn’t work. But when I run my action in CS5, it’s working. Just to precise, I create my action in CS6.

    Is there a solution for that?

    TY

    Hello Jeffrey,
    I installed Yosemite last August and am running the latest version of CS6 (13.0.6). The only issue that I noticed was a very slow boot time for CS6 which I asked your advice on how to rectify it. I followed all the steps (Preferences, Plug-ins check etc.) but no change. Now I’m getting the following dialogue box when I boot CS6, but even with this, all the functionality of CS6 is intact with no problems processing any image. The only software change that I’ve made on my system that is coincident with the appearance of this warning was an update to the latest version of Java. I would presume that that is indeed just a coincidence.

    “One or more files in the Adobe Application Support folder, necessary for running Photoshop, are missing. Please run the Photoshop installer and re-install Photoshop.”

    Any thoughts/suggestions? Thanks for helping!
    Regards,

    Gerald

    Hello Jeffrey,
    Thanks for your help! Does a reinstall reset preferences, workspaces, custom keystrokes? Is there any effect on plug-ins or any other aspect of CS6 that I would have to redo to bring to it my current operational set-up? I ask this simply because the hassle of a reinstall might not be worth it given that the image processing funtionality is unimpaired. I appreciate your counsel!
    Regards,
    Gerald

    Does photoshop cc for Mac require Java?
    I am debating subscribing to Photoshop CC for my Mac which does not have Java installed. Is it necessary to install Java in order to install and/or run Photoshop CC? I have the same question regarding Flash, which is also not installed on my Mac.

    really seams so, that you are the profi here :-). fine, hope you can give me best advice:
    I am using OS X 10.7.5 and want to update to yosemite 10.10.
    very important: using indesign CS 5.5., Photoshop CS 5 and Illustrator CS 5.1.

      Photoshop CS5 should run fine. Not sure about Illustrator or InDesign. Note: CS5 wasn’t designed nor extensively tested to run on this new OS. I don’t recommend that customers upgrade to a new OS without doing their own testing to ensure that it will work for their needs with their current hardware and drivers.

      If it’s not obvious, you should never upgrade your critical production environment before testing. Always use a separate partition or drive.

      I also recommend that you do a clean install of the OS and your software. I often see issues introduced via upgrade and with user migration assistant. (like this one and other permissions related issue)
