I have the updates already and still unstable. Very unstable, every time I open Photoshop the custom adobe window disappear and the vista window corner appear with the statement ‘Not Responding’ near the Photoshop window’s title.

I’m using Vista 64bit AMD Quad Core 8 Gigs RAM, I tried using the non-64bit version that comes with the Master Collection, but still.

Every time I try to close a current window – Not Responding. Every time I open a new project – Not Responding… and on and on.

It might be possible that having both versions installed is causing the problem?

Heather, I would post your question in the User To User Forums. http://forums.adobe.com/community/photoshop/photoshop_macintosh Please post whether this is something that worked prior to the 10.6.4 update.

I am running PS 11.0.2 & Mac Power Book 10.6.4. All of a sudden, I can no longer move selections easily. If I try to move one layer or object, PS moves my entire group or the cursor jumps to random layers. It’s infuriating. Anyone else experiencing problems with the move tool or selections? The only way I can almost work around this is to apple-select the layer, make sure the layer isn’t within a group, click V to move, use my arrow keys to move, and then hope the right selection moves. Even this doesn’t work all
the time. Should I revert to the original install of CS4? It’s unusable like this. I also have the GeForce 9600 GT card & 9400M. No updates found for Mac. No problems other than occasional crashes before this upgrade.

I’m using Photoshop CS4 and Dell Inspiron M6300. It’s taking a really long time to crop. Is this a known problem? I installed the update above.

Mike, turn off OpenGL support in Preferences>Performance. Resolves this annoying issue!

I recently installed CS4 and found out I no longer can import from my Epson 1240 scanner. When I went to the help site I found many other complaints about this and one response from Jack Nack was that there was a Photoshop Twain plug is in the “Goodies” folder. I can’t find the goodies folder in any of the CS4 stuff.

I have installed the updates and My CS4 is un-usably slow. I’m still forced to use CS3.
I have pretty Fast pentium duo core2 6600@2.40ghz.
fast Nvideo 9800GTX+ video card.
Latest drivers.
CS4 is slow with and without OpenGL drawing checked.
I find it’s still “A MESS” as someone referred to it above.

I’m always surprised at users who are afraid to update products such as Adobe. Updates help solve problems. Create a restore point before updating and if you don’t like the results of the update, rollback the system.

I’ve got trouble, when drawing in PS CS4 I’m experiencing major lag. I’ve already updated my graphics card (Geforce 9300m GS) and updated PS to the latest version (Version: 11.0.1)
And updated my wacom intuos 3 drivers as well.
Still I experience lag while drawing… Can anyone help?
Thanks in advance

John: My real problem is when I am in the middle of my work, Phoshop closes without error message or saying something is wrong. Please advaice. Also, how to removed the tabbed view when opening multiple documents? The only way I know how to get around this is to open the files, then resize the window, then drag each file out of the tabs. Really has increased my workflow and slowed me down.
I am running CS4 Extended on W XP SP3
Thanks
