P: CS6 / CC Keyboard shortcuts not responding Mavericks/Yosemite MacOS 10.9; 10.10

Since Installing Mavericks on my mac pro, 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.
My mac pro 15" has 8gb of ram which is more than enough for the type of work I do.I am an illustrator who primarily works around the brush tool.
Have tried disabling Graphics Processor and restarting, but this does not resolve the issue.

Any help would be most appreciated.

    The plug-in worked for me! Just wanted to wait a few days and see if I noticed the problem again. Nothing yet. Now, if that good ol' plug-in could just come with the software package, then we're all set.
    Thanks guys

    another thing about the wacom, I noticed that now it glitches between the mouse arrow and round brush when you hover over an area in between actions such as brush strokes or clone stamping... it's giving me a bit of a headache and is very distracting is there anyway to get rid of that?

    Are you on 10.9/10.10 and using a wacom tablet? Do you have this plug-in installed? http://helpx.adobe.com/photoshop/kb/p... If not, can you install it and relaunch Photoshop and let us know if the problem goes away?

    My hotkey shortcuts also randomly stop working and the only fix is to restart Photoshop. Typical Adobe.

    The plug-in works. Sorry for yelling! (Was so frustrated after one whole day of working with a lagging paint brush.)

    This issue is NOT SOLVED! I installed the plug-in and my "b" "x' "spacebar" and "com+Z" still lagging. I absolutely cannot work productively like this. This only happened once I upgraded to Yosemite 10.10 Pls fix asap!

    Yes, MacOS 10.10 has introduced quite a few new OS bugs. If you have work to get done, you may want to downgrade to a more stable MacOS version.

    Ya, I understand. I'm not even going to get into the world of bugs that plague Flash CC. But I never experienced any of these bugs before CC, on both mac and pc. I use both with the Adobe suite since CS3 and have never had any keyboard shortcut issues until CC. Now im working on CC on my Imac and CC2014 on my laptop. I just installed Yosemite on my laptop and now when I cant hit undo, I have to reboot the program, before I just had to hit the space bar or another tool. So now my workarounds dont even work around anymore. I just installed the plug-in, ill see if I still have issues, If not then we're done here.

    The plugin works around a few known MacOS bugs. Photoshop CC 2014 already contains the workarounds for those OS bugs.
    Unfortunately Photoshop cannot always work around OS and driver bugs.
