Just installed CS5 - all files I opened presents itself as a BLACK screen

I'm a complete novice (been using PhotoShop 6.0 until today).  All files I try to open (.tif .jpg .psd) I can't see the photo - can only see BLACK in the window.  File name shows very well.  Under "Layers" next to "Background", I see the thumbnail of the photo.

Just paid $700 for this freaking software and I was waiting with the helpline horrible for an hour and a half.  I am beyond frustrated.  It's probably something simple, I don't know what the problem is.

Thank you in advance for your help!

You can disable OpenGL drawing for now to avoid the problem. (then restart Photoshop to be sure)

But the cause is a bug in the driver of your video card, and you must update your video card driver to pick up bug fixes.

In addition, get the driver updated from the web site of the manufacturers of the GPU (NVidia or ATI), not the computer or the web site of the manufacturer of Council.

  • Just installed cs5.5, audio & video effects are missing...

    Just installed cs5.5, audio & video effects are missing... What to do?

    Thank you all

    Need not do anything. One of the major improvements in CS5.5, although perhaps not as well known to the public, is that the audio effects are now 'intelligent' and are unified in their mono, stereo and 5.1 counterparts. Which means that if you need, say, Reverb for a stereo clip, you just drop the effect of reverberation on it without having to find the stereo > reverb effect. They have the same effects, just much easier to apply. Check out blog post of Todd here: unified audio effects in Adobe Premiere Pro CS5.5 "Premiere Pro workspace .

    This said, you have problems with video effects?

    Hello

    You can not read swatchPanel selection using javascript.

    However, you can create a dialog box SUI with listBox where color chart may appear for a multiple selection.

    Finally, you are able to import a selected set of nuances to the designated documents.

    Juliea salvation,

    I think that the PDF file association is not correct. Instead of a double click on the file to open it, please try below mentioned

    1. Right-click on the file and select open with...
    2. Select Choose default program
    3. Select Adobe Reader from the list (if it is not in the list, and then navigate to C:\Program Files (x 86) \Adobe\Reader 10.0\Reader, then select AcroRd32.exe)
    4. Don't forget to check the box "always use the selected program to open this type of file."
    5. Click ok

    Is it possible to configure the LabView brose dialog box to show all files, but only allow the selection of existing paths (such as records of selection only mode)?  I have many paths to choose from and I would like the user to see files within these paths (so they know that they choose a populous path) but I don't want to select these files.

    Thank you

  • ASUS GeForce GTX 750TI install on Pavilion P6 2010UK leads to 3 beeps and black screen

    Hello

    I recently tried to install a 750TI Asus GeForce GTX on my HP Pavilion P6 2010UK using a SATA 6-pin PCI Express power connector, but after starting I get three beeps and a black screen. Can someone help me with this please?

    As an observation, the PC was working fine before you install the new card.

    Hello

    Many of the graphics cards NVIDIA GTX 750 will not work in the HP PC that do not have a BIOS version 8.  Your PC has a BIOS version 7 and I do not expect HP to publish a version 8 BIOS for your PC.

    Return the card and try one of the models that should run on a PC equipped with a legacy BIOS.

  • HP all-in - One PC 19-2113w 19: white/black screen after upgrading RAM

    Hello

    So I have upgraded RAM using 2 x 4 GB SODIMM DDR3 Corsair 1600 Mhz, after installing the PC boots but screen is white/black

    steps to follow:

    1. I tried with 1 socket by using only a RAM, screen black

    2. I tried with 2 socket using RAM only one with the same RAM step 1, screen black

    3. I tried step 1 and 2 using the other RAM, screen black

    now here it gets interesting

    4 tried 1 socket using Original/factory RAM, screen black

    5 tried 2 socket using Original/factory RAM, screen black

    6. tried without any RAM at all, looks like a lack of RAM, screen black

    Now, to each measure adopted, I must say that the screen sound not only not showing things, but its totally black as it does at all, until the system starts normally. !

    Is it Possible the upgrade of RAM affect the screen? or maybe when I was replacing the RAM I hit some conecting by cable to screen or something?

  • Bridge CS5 - setting to automatically open the images selected in ACR?

    My Bridge CS3 opens images (when I click on the thumbnail) in ACR, jpg even.  How to make this happen in Bridge CS5?

    I can open in ACR by going in "file > open", but is there a way to automatically?  Sorry if there is an obvious answer, but I'm

    absent - it if there is.  I just installed CS5 today.

    Thanks... carolyn

    How to make this happen in Bridge CS5?

    I can open in ACR by going in "file > open", but is there a way to put

    automatically?

    You can set it in preferences. By default, it is set to open only jpeg

    and tiff with parameters (and that's really the only adjustment I want because I have)

    don't want to open ACR everytime I open a jpeg or tiff file...)

    Under the Bridge menu, you have two preferences, first Camera Raw, then

    Preferences (those who are for the bridge)

    In the preferences of the camera, you have down to choose from

    3 options to open jpeg and tiff in ACR. Not at all, just the ones with ACR

    Settings and all the time.

    Also consider this workflow:

    Leave the default settings to only open files with parameters and bridge

    Content panel select one or more files that you want to change in ACR. With the right

    Click the mouse choose "Open in Camera Raw" from the submenu.

    If you already changed files and want to fine tune them just double

    Click to open in ACR (those that have a small icon with sliders top right

    the miniature)

    You can also use the Panel filter (Camera Raw - custom settings) to show

    Only files with parameters.

    Just another workflow
