Camera Raw 5.5 adjustment brush has no effect.

I get the error message: "Unable to create local adjustment. All the local adjustment controls are set to have no effect in image." After successfully using the adjustment brush in several places in one image , I clicked "Clear All." Now when I try to use the brush again in the same file or another file I get the error message. How can I make the adjustment brush active? I use a 867 Power Mac G4 with Photoshop CS4.

Works fine for me It could just be that you are using a G4 which is rather underpowered for CS4 and not a recommended computer.

  • Why don't changes made in camera raw with the adjustment brush carry into photoshop?

    Why don't changes made in camera raw with the adjustment brush carry into photoshop?

    Using the Open button in ACR to get to PS doesn’t create a PSD or a TIF, it just transfers the image in memory. 
    As has been asked, already, what are the precise steps of your workflow starting with your painting the adjustment brush strokes in ACR and seeing the image in PS without the strokes, and what exact versions of PS and ACR are you using?

  • Camera RAW adjustment brush has no effect

    I'm using Photoshop CS4 on my MacPro and the adjustment brush in ACR has no effect. I deleted the preferences file with no result. I have a copy of PS CS5 beta and the adjustment brush works quite well. I'm not using the beta on production jobs until it's released. Suggestions, please. Thank you.

  • Lightroom 4 adjustment brush has little effect

    I am using Lightroom 4 because my Mac is on OSX 10.6.8. As I use it today I'm seeing that the adjustment brush is having little effect. I'm trying to bring areas in shadow up a bit, but there's almost no change. The images shows what should be creating a substantial adjustment and it's almost invisible. Even retroactively sliding the exposure control fully up does just about nothing. Similar lack of effectiveness with other controls, like Contrast. The images are DNG converted/imported from NEF (Nikon D7000) by Lightroom.  I have reset, relaunched and restarted. Suggestions?

    Yes, thank you. I actually figured it out and was having difficulty deleting my post. Thanks again.

  • Opening photo in camera raw using cs5 and photo has lots of red and blue in the image?

    I am trying to open a photo in camera raw and the image always has a lot of red and blue in the picture? What can I do to avoid this. When I first started learning photoshop this did not happen?
    Thanks and any help would be greatly appreciated.

    Perhaps it would be helpful if you'd post a screen grab showing the problem.  I honestly can't tell from what you're writing whether you're seeing a bug or maybe you've saved some oddball Camera Raw Defaults.
    Considering it could be the latter, have you considered setting the image development settings for that image to defaults, or even Resetting the Camera Raw Defaults (which will affect all images in the future)?
    -or, if the above doesn't fix it-

  • Bridge won't allow me to open Camera Raw because a qualifying product has not been launched, any suggestions?

    Bridge won't allow me to open Camera Raw because a qualifying product has not been launched, any suggestions?

    Actually, it may be more to it. I just wasted good 7 hours on the issue: I transferred a big external drive from old WinXp system to my new W7 system, and faced the ownership mayhem ever since.
    No matter what I did to the Volume Owner, Files Owner and attributes, recursive Directory Ownership jobs enduring tens of minutes at a time, nothing helped really.
    Because you might have one more issue:
    Use "Folder Options", either from Tools menu in Explorer, if menu shows, or via Control Panel.
    Click on View tab, and find the box for "Hide protected operating system files (recommended)". Ignore that recommendation, uncheck.
    Go now to the root directory of your troubled drive and you will see a hidden file "System Volume Information". This can be the "bad guy." Ensure that you have access to that file using the Properties / Security tab in a customary fashion! In my case that file was "padlocked", a small lock icon was placed over the folder icon to indicate that.
    Only once I changed that, I was able to access the LR catalogs as a regular user. And only than LR was finally able to access existing previews and to display the grid image icons!
    Ugrh.... Windows, the "personal computer system" is a mess, a labyrinth of convoluted intertwined dependencies, maybe created in competing departments and piled up atop of each other in an unseemly fashion. Compared to Unix and its derivatives it is a nightmare, which is a part of our lives for decades already.
    I think that all the Apple users are now double-happy to have made the transition, when they see such "problems."

  • The camera raw button in Adobe Bridge has quit working and all my camera raw files are hidden by a c

    The Camera Raw button in my Adobe Bridge has quit working and all my raw files are hidden by a cover that says PEF and has a camera raw icon on it.  I can open the files in camera raw if I double click on the file but I want to see the files and be able to use the camera raw button.  How can I fix it?

    This means you have not the correct ACR plug in to support your PEF files or no ACR plug in installed at all.
    In photoshop go to the menu Photoshop / About Plug ins / Camera Raw.
    Here should be showing the version number of your ACR plug in (only 1 version should show btw)
    Then go to this site and check wether your camera is listed and what minimal version you need to open the files:

  • Help! Lightroom 3 Color Swatch for Adjustment Brush has Disappeared!

    I selected the Adjustment Brush and then click on the color swatch icon. I remember changing the value to 0. Then the color swatch icon just disappeared.I've tried reseting everything in the adjustment brush settings but the color swatch icon is still gone. In addition to that, If I click on the Adjustment Brush to activate it and the click anywhere on the photo, the entire photo disappears. Has anyone had this problem? Do you know how to fix this issue? Thanks.

    I also tried restarting Ligtroom 3. That did not help. I tried rebooting my computer. That did not help, either.

  • Lightroom 5 Adjustment Brush has disappeared, just the cursor shows. I have no idea what size I'm using. Just happened for no reason. Looked in the Pref and nothing there to adjust etc.

    Just using the adjustment brush in Lightroom 5 on an image and suddenly the brush circles vanished lmao!!!!!! Can't find anywhere to get back, thought maybe I had touched a button by accident turning it off or something. All I get is the mouse cursor although I can use the brush but I have no idea how big the brush is or where the hell the brush is being used! Tried closing the Application and relaunching as you do and nothing changes, still no brush.

  • Adjustment Brush not working correctly

    Since moving to LR 5.6 the adjustment brush has not worked correctly.
    I am unable to adjust the size of the brush using the scroll function on my Mac mouse.When I try to do this I can see the slider moving indicating the size of the brush but nothing actually happens.When I try to adjust it using the slider itself again nothing happens.
    Has anyone else experienced this problem or can you offer some advise please

    The ACR plug-in files for PS-CS6 and PS-CC are in different folders, but the camera profiles and lens profiles are in a common folder.   Since updates to ACR are typically handled by the product, itself, not direct-link downloads that you must have saved for ACR 7.1, I don’t know what the error means in relation to CC having a newer ACR.
    What version of ACR did you have installed for CS6 before you tried to update to ACR 7.1?  Are you trying to downgrade from a higher version of ACR on CS6?
    The first thing I would try is install ACR 8.3 RC for PS-CS6, using the CS6-specific link at Adobe Labs.
    If you really need to go back to an earlier version of ACR, then the Adobe-approved method is to uninstall PS, entirely, then re-install it to get the older version. 
    It may be that you have to uninstall both CS6 and CC and then install CS6, first, and get it updated the way you want it, then install CC, again, and update it how you want it.  That seems like a lot of work, though.
    Why are you wanting to install ACR 7.1 for CS6?
    If you plan ahead, then the way you can switch between different versions of the ACR plug-in, is to save your Camera Raw.8bi file each time you upgrade (I rename mine so the extension is the version:  Camera Raw_8bi.71 and leave them in the same folder), and just replace whatever version of the ACR plug-in with that one you want.

  • Camera raw plug in not showing up as an option in the file menu the plugin was updated?

    I am trying to adjust the white balance using photoshop elements 11, all the information I have come across tells you how to do it using the camera raw plug in.  This has been updated and still I do not see it listed when I click on the file menu.  I take photos of antique gold lockets using a light house and even though the custom white balance is set on my camera the photos are still coming out too canary yellow.  I need to be able to adjust the colors so that they are more antique rose gold looking and have been reading different articles and videos on how other people adjust the colors and would like to try a couple of the ways I have seen but am unable as the camera raw plug in is not showing up as an option.  Any suggestions on how I can solve this problem would be most appreciated.  I have tried the quick fixes, color and contrast etc and not getting the results I am looking for... Please tell me what to do...

    You never see it in the file menu. But if you go to File>Open As in windows you should be able to choose Camera Raw as the format.
    On a mac it would be file>Open, choose the file, choose camera raw as the format>Open.
    That's assuming these aren't raw files. If it's a raw file, just plain ol' file>Open and selecting a raw file should open the file in the converter.

  • CS4 Camera Raw Does Not Open With Lightroom 3

    Hi everybody,
    I have the following equipment:
    iMac OSX 10.7 Lion
    Photoshop CS4
    Lightroom 3.6
    Camera Raw 5.7
    All SW has the latest Patch.
    When I open a Canon CR2 out of PS, the Camera Raw plugin shows up and I can make my settings.
    When I try to right-click from LR, the window does not open. The file is opened but no CR-plugin.
    It used to work on my iMac with SnowLeopard.
    Can anybody help me?
    Thank you for your time.
    Ole

    ACR should never visibly open going from LR to PS.  This is by design.
    Because your LR and CS/ACR are mismatched versions, LR will have to render to a TIF on the way into PS, so there’s no ACR involved.  If you were using matched versions of LR and PS, either LR2/CS4 or LR3/CS5 (or now LR4/CS6) then ACR is called on the way into PS but without your seeing the user-interface.   The adjustments available in LR3 are “newer” than the adjustments available in CS4/ACR5 so it doesn’t even make sense you’d want to see the sliders in ACR on the way into PS, because they’d be undoing or changing something LR had done unless you mean you want to adjust the intermediate TIF file using the older ACR sliders for some reason.

  • Problem with CS4 Bridge and Camera Raw

    I just bought a Canon 5D Mark III and can not open the images in Camera Raw through Bridge.  I was told to upgrade the Camera Raw plug in.  I have 5.7.0.213 already and that is what I could find to download.  Can I upgrade the plug in into CS4 Bridge or how do I make this work.
    Please, I need help with this soon.
    Thanks, Tom

    Isn't there any other option?  I don't have a compter that can run CS6 and at the moment, upgrading compters and Photoshop isn't going to happen.  All I need is to upgrade the Camera Raw Plug-in.  There has to be some sort of work around for this.
    Anyone have any ideas?
