Photoshop behave strangely (help please!)

Photoshop noob here!  Any help would be appreciated.  More I use Photoshop cs6 (64-bit) on my computer the strange behavior starts to happen.  The first time, he started very well, I installed as usual.  Then opacity out of the blue started to behave strangely.  Even when I turned a color to 100% opacity and buried it on top of another color in the same layer would not completely opaque.  I could still see the shapes/lines through the so-called 100% opaque.  I searched the internet and cannot find a solution.  I continued to come following the suggestion to reset all the tools that did not work.  When told to erase my photoshop preferences (the psp file) manually and by using the shortcut CTRL-SHIFT-ALT at photoshop startup the first launched photoshop and then gave rise to an error "Could not complete your request because it is not the right kind of document.".  I could only click ok and continue to work on my messed version of photoshop.  Second, the ctrl-shift-alt shortcut did not work at all.  Fed up, I disabled and uninstalled, then reinstalled Photoshop.

It worked perfectly fine for awhile and then different strange behavior began don't reproduce.  First of all, the gum has behaved like a blue brush in the background layer.  Instead of erasing of white and see the checkerboard pattern, as I always used to it would be just blue color instead.  I could do it so different opacities.  On the background layer, it is essentially a blue brush.  It was not super boring I could add another layer, but then my desiree pressure has stopped working on my Tablet too.  I downloaded all the latest drivers for the Tablet without result.  Yet once told me to try to remove my preferences that once again resluted in the error "Could not complete your request because it is not the right kind of document.".  Also the shortcut ctrl-shift-alt still does not work.

I looked everywhere for a solution and still can't understand why Photoshop continues on this self-destructive path.  Any help would be appreciated. Again, I'm new to photoshop so if the answer is very obvious then sorry!

Reset preferences is first aid for PS uninstall and reinstall will not fix an error in this file.

You must start PS immediately hold down the ctrl alt shift keys (assuming that the Windows operating system) and you will get a window to reset.  If you're not fast enough, you will see the splash screen.  Some find help by pressing and now the 2 keys, start PS and immediately holding down 3.

  • CC won't let me not reinstall Photoshop CS6. Help, please.

    I had Photoshop CS6 on my computer and CC kept offering me an upgrade. Whenever I tried to upgrade, I got an error that it failed. This happened several times. I decided to uninstall Ps, and then reinstall it. But now it's gone, CC doesn't let me download and reinstall. He always wants me to upgrade what he thinks it's on my computer. So, I tried the upgrade, and that did not need to reinstall the PS.

    Is someone can you please tell me what I need to do to reinstall Ps CS6 on my computer?

    Thank you

    Sue

    Too bad!!!

    I've searched and searched. Finally understood that I needed to disconnect from CC completely, then sign. Once I did, CC has seen that I had Ps on my computer, and I was able to reinstall.

    I hope this helps someone else.

  • Brand new Photoshop... help please

    Hello

    I am a student using the free trial software. My first goal is to transform the docments in pages of resume construction. Quite all right to come I think, but I run into a few glitches at first.

    First of all, when I open the files things are a bit blurry. Zoom is terrible. Not at all like the look, I'm on the school computer.  I get a message to "uncheck the box use the graphics processor in the Panel of the preferences dialog performance" which is the preoblem? Where the Preferences dialogue? I guess that my cell phone is missing, but the graphic ability I have works perfectly with other programs such as Revit and AutoCAd

    Also, when I try to drag a file open to the blank canvas, I get a message says "the depth of the target document does not match the source document", it's that the bitrate?

    I'll put the new page, resolution 300 Pixels/inch. Who is the target?

    And if I could, one last question. Working with 11 x 17 my files drag over the Web without problems on 8 x 11, they used to hang on. Weird.

    Any help would be appreciated. Thank you.

    If you get a messgae which you should deselect the graphics processor, then you should do it. Some of the features of photoshop uses the graphics card to process instead of using the CPU. Off the coast of loading is supposed to speed up the amount of time it takes to do something.

    If your graphics card does not have power or doesn't have the ability to process, the CPU has to do it and, therefore, the reason to uncheck the option.

    Like to know where to find the preferences, it depends on if you have a mac or windows computer. It is located in a structure of menu of difference for each system. It is always important to specify what operating system you have when the publication of an application.

    Under Windows you will find at the bottom of the Edit menu. On Mac, I think that there is a menu option just before the file. Click on who can go down to preferences. {ctrl-k on windows, command-k on mac}

    When the Preferences dialog box opens there are a list of options sup on the right side to find the one performance. Click, and then on the right side, uncheck the graphics processor, and finally click OK.

    Regarding the ppi, 300 is or has been the recommended value for printing. Some recommend less now. It's a personal preference for a balance between quality and file size. I always use 300ppi because that's what I learned years ago.

    Regarding the physical size it does not matter what size it is when you drag a file, he should go to the canvas of the document. It might be possible that either you do not see the image because it is too large or too small. Or you see an effect of the graphics card.

    When you drag the image on the canvas. try to zoom in or out if it does not help, let know us.

  • Cannot modify Lightroom 2 photo in photoshop elements 9, help please.

    I use OS 10.6.5. I have Lightroom 2.7 installed, and I purchased Photoshop Elements 9. I'm trying to change my Lightroom photos in elements by going to the Menu, select Photos, then select them change in, but I'm not able to select one of the options to change in as they appear in gray. I uninstalled and re-installed both programs and that did not help. Any suggestions?   Let me know if you need more information.

    Thank you

    Sam

    Hi Sam

    Make sure that you have properly implemented PSE9 as external editor.

    In the Lightroom library module, click Edit > Preferences

    Then click the external publishing tab in the Preferences dialog box.

    Click on the button choose (to half way down) in additional external editor

    Then go to the PhotoshopElementsEditor app and select it.

    Any help guys?


    Additional Infro: I am running windows 7 Home Premium x 64.

    Processor: Pentium Dual-Core T4300 2.10 GHz, 2.10 GHz CPU


    Installed memory (RAM): 4.00 GB

    I run CS5cleanscript and uninstalled previous versions of photoshop.

    I am an administrator and have enough space on my hard drive.

    Also, can I install msi files. manually.

    Yes, right click on the .exe file (it's Setup) and choose Run as administrator. But since you've already tried that... I wanted to just make sure that you don't have that it was not clear to me.

    Thus,.

    PS CS5 is out of a disc? The disk may be damaged (not the first time that's happened). Try to download the trial version to see if it will work. All you have to do is to put in the serial number to install.

    Download the trial version in a folder on your desktop. There are 2 files in this folder. Right click on the .exe file in this folder. One will be with extracted files. Open this repetoire and right click on the .exe file and choose Run as administrator. PS will start to install.

    Or: if it is a download try re - down loading. There has been a lot of times where the download is corrupted for some reason any.

    If you have already tried this contempt then.

  • I can't print formats customized in photoshop CS3. Help, please

I was told that I should switch to 10.5.x, I also bought a new CS3 because I don't have the original so I can't reinstall it. The trouble I'm having, is that when I try to print custom formats, the default values for the printer to 8.5x11. Only in photoshop that it. If anyone has had this problem or knows what I can do about it? I would really appreciate it. Thank you for your time. I'll check until it is resolved.

  • Problem strange system, Please HELP!

    Hello

    I downloaded a nice big game and installed. Since I don't have that system started acting really strangely. The screen go black and everything seems to disappear. All the files, all the files, all programs, disappeared and every time I try to open programs or files, it is said that is unable to read the file in the source. I can't even turn off the system. The strange thing is that to happen just with my account, which is the admin, and not with the other account. Now, I tried to uninstall the game, but unfortunately I do not have the power to do it with the other account. II have Norton Internet Security and I did a full system scan and the results where no virus detected.
    Now, I do not understand if a system problem or my antivirus is not good enough.
    I would like to know is there is the possibility of having the power to admin in the other account, I mean the ability to remove the system and personal files like this.
    If anyone can help please please I need your help.
    And I'm sorry if my English is a confusing bi :)
    Thank you

    Hello

    1 do you have. what game installed?

    2. What is the brand and model of the computer?

    3. your admin account is a Local account or a Microsoft account?

    As the other user account works very well, it seems to be a problem specific to the admin user account.

    If you encounter any problems with your Microsoft account, you can try running the troubleshooter in Microsoft Accounts. It is an automated tool that can find and automatically fix some problems. It is available in English only, but will work in all languages.

    http://go.Microsoft.com/fwlink/?LinkId=268424

    After you run the troubleshooter, an update with the status of the issue.

    Hope that the information provided is useful.

  • Help, please! Photoshop CS5 AND all THE OTHER PROGRAMS to CRASH!

    Hello

    So I have CS5 Adobe Creative Suite full on my iMac. I bought all of the programs in 2010 and the new iMac in 2015. Since I upgraded my iMac to the new OS (first Yosemite, then El Capitan) all my CS5 programs is high gel (aka crash) and I have to force quit them or manually shuts down my computer, or it will run smoothly, but when I go to exit the program, a window will appear saying that the program was forced to leave because he crashed (which obviously isn't the case).

    Why is this happening?

    I'm sure it's just a matter of my programs up to date are not enough to work with the newer operating system out there currently, which means I probably need to buy CS6, or unfortunately, I will have to pay monthly for these programs with this new creative cloud bs, but I wanted to check with others who know better, then I have.

    Someone please help! I tried to call Adobe and Apple about this but no answer or Apple puts all the blame on Adobe.

    I AM NOT happy that Adobe has NO phone or chat support with their technical team, so hopefully someone here will know what to do.

    Thank you
