Hey guys, Ive has been searching the net for an answer but have not found so here I am, whenever I use photoshop the kernel_task becomes huge, enormous 6 GB and my photoshop slows to a crawl, making things too simple to select a layer make the beachball.

  • Screen flickers black when you use Photoshop CC 2015

    I am under Photoshop CC 2015 with a 13 inch, Macbook Pro late 2013 OSX 10.10.3

    My screen flashes black when I use the program (really bad with the text tool)

    How can I avoid this / solve the problem?

    • This occurs generally when there is a problem with the graphics card.
    • Open Photoshop > preferences > Performance > avancΘs
    • Set the mode for drawing base.

    • Restart Photoshop and see if that helps.

  • Sign in required when you use the classic/2015 Installer

    I'm trying to deploy Acrobat Standard DC.

    I logged on to the site of license and downloaded Acrobat_2015_Web_WWMUI.exe (description: Acrobat DC2015 12.0 WIN ESD ALL CLASSIC)

    I downloaded the Acrobat DC Customization Wizard

    I wrote the serial number of the license site for Acrobat 12.0 English universal Windows LIC SN

    In the "Customization Options" CustWiz I entered the serial number (copied and pasted to check that there is no error in transposition)

    In the CustWiz 'Online services and features', I checked disable them the product updates, Upsell turn off and disable all services

    I saved the package, which has created AcroPro.mst

    I also transform > generate transformation and has called myInstall.mst

    I then deployed acropro.msi with TRANSFORMS = "AcroPro.mst" (and also tried with MyInstall.mst) and it installs successfully the program. "

    I checked the path is C:\Program Files (x 86) \Adobe\Acrobat 2015\ which means the classic route Setup

    When I try to launch Adobe Acrobat DC, I'm Guest Sign In just...

    According to the plan prior to the deployment of ETK, granting of rights of use section, it is said that "prior active Admin for all users".

    What does enter the serial number in the Customization Wizard (which I did) or is there something else I need to do to activate this license/serial number so that I can avoid this thing all sign-in and run Acrobat DC just as we have in the past?

    Connect to the launch is required until you click 'exception Grant Offline' button next to the serial number field of CW. When you click this button, your computer must be connected to the internet.

  • 100% use of the disk in the Task Manager when you use Photoshop CC (8.1-64-bit Windows)

    Hello

    I have been using Adobe CC for a month or two now. I have an Asus laptop with Intel Core i7 (2.4 GHz), 6 GB RAM, 1 TB hard disk space and 64 bit, almost 6 months old. Following apps are installed: Photoshop, Illustrator, InDesign, Audition, Acrobat Pro XI, Premiere Pro and Media Encoder. I recently did an update through Adobe CC for Photoshop and Illustrator, all the others are up to date.

    I think, but I could be wrong, since this update Photoshop is weird on my laptop. When I run Photoshop, my task manager immediately indicates a rate of 100% of my use of the disk. This seems to be off, after it is fully operational, but when I start to edit a file, the use of the disc immediately breaks back to 100%, while the CPU remains below 10%, RAM stays 3, 5-3, 8 GB (only 60% of total capacity) and even the actual read and write speeds of my HARD drive are not particularly high (5-10 MB max). And because of the use of the disk of 100%, Photoshop freezes in an instant and operating it is almost impossible.

    I already uninstalled Photoshop, passed all services and * that could trigger it in Windows 8.1 (Google search for: 8.1 Windows disk use 100%), re-installed Photoshop and I still have the same problem.

    So, I was wondering if there could be a solution to this problem or if anyone else has this problem as well?

    Thanks in advance!

    UPDATE: this error only applies when trying to manipulate, add, change or delete the text. All other functions (unrelated to the text) seem to work fine.

  • Sometimes my keyboard stops responding when you use Photoshop CS6, & I have to restart

    Since I've upgraded to Photoshop CS6, I found that every one time from time to time the keyboard not responding.  I can't tell if something specific that I'm doing it triggers, but I will be editing an image and press a shortcut key and find that it doesn't work. This does not happen when I first open an image, but usually after that I worked for a while. As far as I can tell (it's pretty random) it seems to happen when I use a tool to apply an effect to an image, like this last time, it happened when I used the Spot Healing Brush several times on a photograph. (Of course it could be correlation without causation, since I'm a big fan of the Spot Healing Brush and tend to use a little whenever I'm editing photos). Note that the modifier keys still work, but all the letters and the keys do not respond.

    Sometimes - and lately it seems that it always happens, there is a sound associated with the shut-off valve.  It is possible that the times I heard the noise, I had my speakers.  It's a short clicking noise - and I don't think that's it integrated alert sounds on my Mac, because I just listened to each other and I remember that noise is different - but the sound is certainly coming from my speakers and is not a mechanical noise from the machine.  I don't know what could be causing this. I saw someone complaining about this a couple of years, who thought it might have to do with a Wacom tablet. I own one, but do not always use it, and what happens even when I'm not using it.  The only way I found to get my keyboard answer again is close Photoshop and restart.

    I'm on a Macbook Pro 2.66 GHz Intel Core i7 with 8 GB of Ram. I'm on OS X 10.7.4 (not quite ready for Mountain Lion).

    Okay - looks like I solved my problem after a few hours looking for related problems on the web.  It is not a problem with Photoshop but with Mac OS X.  The mouse and trackpad 'Universal access' default preferences are set to "Press the Option five times to enable or disable MouseKeys." So, when I use a tool that I'm editing with the option key, key and I repeatedly use it five times in a row, I hear the rattling which means "Mouse keys" lights (and disable the regular keys). Turn this option off, and the problem is solved!

  • Bug (?) in preview (audio) in 2015.3 (13.8) - Audio looping when you use option frames skip

    Can someone confirm a new bug with audio playback while previewing? It seems to happen when you use the option to skip frames. This causes the audio preview loop after a few seconds, even if the video preview continues to run curly.

    It happens to me on Windows 7 and 10. The audio is a .wav file.

    The more I do the amount of frames ignored, more audio looping section becomes, so try affecting executives jump 5 for the most obvious result.

    Memory and cache purging does not solve this problem.

    This problem is fixed in update fixes after effects CC 2015.3 (13.8.1). This update, available now, can be installed by using the creative Office Cloud app, or by choosing Help > updates within any Adobe application.

    You should not have a permanent internet connection.  You should only be connected when the software must check whether the subscription is still valid.

    Then start in the recovery volume (start with the command + R keys), select disk utility and run the feature of first aid on the disks.  If you receive a message that x number of errors were repaired, rerun the first aid until there is no errors detected and repaired.  Restarts normally and restart Etrecheck.

    Thirdly, launch Safari with the SHIFT key is pressed and see if there is an improvement in the performance of Safari.
