Can't change text once I've finalized it!

I've been using Photoshop for years, so I know all the basics. And I've never run into this before. I created a document with text boxes and images. Everything was fine to that point. But when I went back to re-word the text boxes and change text color, I could not do it. I tried everything: be sure that layer is selected, be sure I have the type tool enabled, and click somewhere in the existing text.
Nothing doing. No matter what I did, it insisted on starting a new text layer. I could not access the text itself to change it.
I could transform it or move it but it will not let me change the text itself or the text color.
I'm using the PS cloud version and running Windows 7.
I ran into this a few weeks ago, and rebooting my computer solved the problem -- or so I thought. Apparently it didn't solve it permanently.
Help, please! This was due yesterday and my client is understandably not amused.
Thanks.

Now I can change text in any text box except the one titled "spinetext", which is highlighted in the layers panel. Obviously I'm doing something wrong, but I've designed a lot of these covers, and never had trouble changing the spine text before.
I finally had to recreate that layer in a new document and import it into this one -- but the text remains unchangeable in this layer.
(For what it's worth, "Layer 1" is the template, which I turn off when I have inserted all the elements, so it has nothing to do with this layer.)
Thanks for your help!

Password self-service errors - Password can be changed only once in a day

Hi experts,
We've been using password resets without issues for several months. Recently we upgraded from version 5.3 SP12 to SP14.
I've read the CUP release note that explains that how password resets now validates against the ABAP system parameter for login/password_change_waittime.
The errors we are experiencing happen even when the users' password is reset for the first time in a day.
Error message:
X Unable to reset password in the following system(s): ECDCLNT100. Password can be changed only once in a day
Please advise if you have experienced this error, if there is a resolution, and/or if there is a way to disable the parameter check.
FYI - We are only using password resets in our non-production systems and are not concerned with multiple daily password resets.
Thanks.

Hello
Are you using PSS with a CUA system?
Then you can try to upgrade the CUA to virsanh sp16.

HELP!Can't change text color photoshop 3d

Hi everyone!
I am having a problem with Photoshop CC and the 3d text extrusion. I've never been able to change the color of my text using the Color Picker or changing the text color by going into the "Edit Source" feature and manually changing it. Neither of these have any effect on my text color. The only way I've found to change my text color is by selecting the Diffuse color under my Front Inflation Materials.
The screenshots below will show my settings and problems.
The first step is creating the 3d Extrusion text layer. I have selected below the word Beach in a dark grey.
The next step is after the 3d Extrusion layer is made, I am trying to change the color of my 3d text to a red. So I'm highlighting my text layer, going to the 3d Text Color picker and selecting red. The box above shows the red that I've selected, and below the little thumbnail also shows red. My problem is that after I press "Ok", the small red box below next to text reverts back to the original dark grey and doesn't change.
The 3rd step and the other way I'm trying to get my text color to change is by clicking on the "Edit Source" button, going into the .psb, manually changing my text color to red, saving and closing the window. The text color still does not show my changes. It remains the original dark grey color that I originally had. Now, if I go back into "Edit Source" my text is red, but it won't show the changes on the 3d layer.
Am I doing something wrong, or is there something I'm missing? Thank you guys in advance.
-Terry

I'm with you XM Just got Steve Caplin's book on 3d Photoshop and he says you can easily change the color as shown in that video —although I am getting different color picker. note the properties panel (on right) the color swatch shows pink once I click OK it reverts back to original color

Modifying the properties of a control in a subVI do not modify the properties of a different control in the main VI. The data is the only thing passed back from the subVI. To modify the properties of the table in the main, you need to pass a reference to it to the subVI and modify it's properties. I've attached a modified llb that does what you want.

Column Headers - Can't Change Text Orientation

In Excel I am able to change the column header row text orientation so that I can have long text headers for both my rows and columns. With pages, my text can only be horizontal, which make a spread sheet with long column names very wide, even though the data in each cel is perhaps one or two digits.
The only solution I have found is placing a text box over the top of the column header cel for each column, but doing this makes it impossible to use the text from the column header in a calculation or in an export or merge of any kind.
If there is something I am missing, please let me know. Otherwise, please consider this a feature request. It seems like a very obvious oversight on the features in Numbers.

This feature is not available in Numbers. If you'd like to request this feature to Apple then from Numbers' Main Menu select "Provide Numbers Feedback."

Can I change text in a tiff using Illustrator?

I have a layout for an ebook with some important black and white bitmap illustrations in tiff., 300 dpi. These has appeared ok on print, but not on screen, reading the same pdf-file. This is partly because there are texts in fontsize 5-6 pt. People tell me I have to convert the drawings, or at least the text, to vector graphics.
Question is now - since at the moment I have CS6 avaiable - can I open these tiff.s in Illustrator, change the text to vector and then save in a format, that can be inserted in the Word2010 layout? (You might wonder why I use Word, but it was a question of economy, when the project was started up). Or are there other ways? Thanks for any answers!

Hi, here are some more details:
I´m working on a layout-job, that involves both Adobe CS and Microsoft Word, and since I haven´t found any forums that comprises both, I´m putting my questions here and have been very grateful for the help I already got from your answers. These are some precise details of my task:
The layout is for a revised and extended edition of a book, previously published twice 10-20 years ago, first in danish, later in english. I wasn´t involved in these. The new layout that I make is made in Word 2010, set up in a template made for the purpose. The book is being prepaired both for paper and for ebook publishing, and as far as the printed paperbook I have no worries concerning the illustrations, since they have already been printed in a satisfyingly good quality. The problem is how to present clear and readable illustrations for the e-book.
The material I was given consists of the complete english book-layout made in PageMaker 6.5 plus all the illustrations as separate TIFF-files with english texts. These TIFF´s have been inserted in my new Word layout, and then some of these texts do not appear with a satisfying clearness in the test PDF´s I make from the Word layout (PDF being the first format we have chosen for the upcoming ebook). The illustrations in question here are (originally handmade) black and white line drawings (ink), mostly geometric figures with the english texts (appr. 5,5 to 9 pt). The texts were – using Photoshop - added (not by me) to scanned copies of the original danish-texted drawings. These scans were saved as TIFF´s, typically 600 dpi, onelayered, bitdepth is 1 – and these TIFF´s are the ones I need to improve and at the same time make a seceond set with danish texts.
The attached TIFF is a section of the most problematic of these drawings (the complete drawing is 1,2Mb). As for the size, the diameter of the largest ring should in the end layout be appr. 1,7 cm, which is eqiuvalent to the original size of the TIFF. In AI it opens up smaller, in PS it opens up bigger – for some reason? Of course e-book readers have the possibility of zooming in, but in 1:1 the illustrations should look somewhat ok, don´t you think? (Here I tried to insert my TIFF, but get the message "content not allowed" - what could be wrong? The file is not over 200 Kb)
So these are the steps: 1) Improving/altering the TIFF´s, maybe change the format to something compatible with Word2010. - 2) Inserting the drawings properly in Word. – 3) Convert to a good quality PDF within an acceptable filesize.
My questions right now are: 1) Will it be enough to replace the unclear texts with bigger and/or screenfriendly fonts, using Photoshop again, - or 2) do I need to change to vectorized texts, using Illustrator or other software like Corel Draw. 3) How to keep the quality through the process of being exported/inserted to Word and subsequently converted to pdf?
My experiences with PS and AI up till now are: The process of vectorizing my illustrations or part of them, seems a long a winding one, let alone the trouble with inserting EPS-files in Word. I have made som attempts with WMF, but the files I get are simply much too big (20Mb+). EMF, exported from AI and in Word converted to a Microsoft Office Drawing Object is the best I have made, but the file is still rather big, the section alone is 5,6Mb. (I would prefer not more than 2Mb). Other suggested formats that I don´t get any satisfying results with are PNG and JPEG. EPS is unreadable (we have already discussed this) in Word, and looks ok when I reach the final PDF made with PDFCreator, but using Acrobat Pro there is a black field where the EPS should be.
Any suggestions?

How can I change text sound iOS 6?

I have a new iPhone 4S, running iOS 6. I have repeatedly tried to change the sound for when I receive a text, and it will not stay as selected. I finally tried restarting the phone, but still will not accept selected sound. It is playing the 'swoosh' sound, and have tried to change to either ding or default. Can anyone tell me how to change it?

After reading another post re: iPhone 3GS, I tried selecting text sound, then going to contacts, picking one and selecting a sound for that contact, but don't want to have to go thru entire list!! Still will not change sound for all.

How can I change text leading in Mail?

When pasting text into Mail from some other apps there is a significant formatting difference, particularly in that line spacing increases. I've tried first pasting the text into TextEdit and applying Plain Text formatting then copying that and repasting into Mail but no difference in result.
Are there any tools for formatting text in Mail, like changing leading?
If I can import that leading then surely Mail must be able to work on such formatting?
Many thanks in advance.
(Btw, the forum for Mail & Address Book failed to function so I put this post here).

Nevermind. I figured it out:
System Preferences > General > Sidebar Icon Size
BTW, that vivid neon blue for, most notably, radio buttons and arrows on pulldown menus, is really annoying.
I miss skeumorphism.

How can i change text on default tab (ex:more viewed item) controller item?

Hi!
I want to use the default control item on tab bar. most viewed but it's ok for the image but i want to change the text to get "Platforms" instead of "Most viewed"

Yes, you can change default fonts here:
orange Firefox button ''or'' Tools menu > Options > Content tab
The center drop-down lets you set the default font and size. The Advanced button lets you set the default for particular font styles. "Serif", "Times New Roman", "Arial" and "Courier New" are good choices for Windows users.
Does that work? If a particular site is a problem, you could post the URL for others to check out.

How can I change text of system messages?

I'm developing application running in Russian language, it's not supported yet in development environment, but it's OK, I can read English. Our future customers know only Russian, so they don't understand text like 'row(s) 1-10 of 213' ('Row X to Y of Z' pagination schema). Is there any way to change some (not all) system messages shown during application run to Russian? I can't find how to do it in documentation and forum.

Alexey,
The pagination strings are customizable in the report template definition. There are a number of built-in templates that are prefixed with "default", which you can not customize, but they are followed by the report templates defined in your application which are prefixed with "template:". One commonly used template for example would be alternating-color-rows. If you edit this template in the template section of the application builder and scroll all the way down to the region titled "Pagination Subtemplate", you will be able to customize the pagination strings to your needs. Please refer to the item level popup help for the exact syntax that you need to apply. You may not be able to fully customize all pagination styles, but you should be able to define an acceptable pagination style that only uses Russian terms.
Regards,
Marc

How can I change text height without converting to outlines?

I work in a sign company and often need to set up text at specific sizes. When text is CAPS it isn't so bad, but when in Title Case it can be a pain....
For example, if I need 2" high letters, generally it would be relative to the capitalized version of the first letter of the word (regardless of ascenders and descenders).
Some times I need to do several at a time, so changing them individually is very time consuming when I have to convert each word to outlines and then adjust each word for compensating for ascending and descending letters.
I'm wondering if there is a quicker way to accomplish this without converting the curves? Also, I notice that when I change the font size (in Character palette) to 2", for example, when outlining the text is actually smaller.

signguy(there),
You may:
1) Tick Edit>Preferences>General>Use Preview Bounds;
2) Select the Type and Effect>Path>Outline Object.
That will reduce the Bounding Box to the actual bounds of the letters, and keep the Type editable.
Remember to untick Edit>Preferences>General>Use Preview Bounds before you get a reverse issue.

How can I change text font in an HTML region

Hi all,
I have an HTML region on my page and I want to display a banner near the top with a larger font. Problem is doesn't seem to work.

How can you change text varaible for offset fiscal year

Hello all,
I am using variable for fiscal year (0P_GJAHR) and then I am using text varaible (&0T_FYEAR&) so that the fiscal year comes up in the key figure column.
Now I am offsetting the fical year variable by -1 so that I can get comaprison between current year and previous year but the text varaible still shows the current year, how do you offset the text varaible by -1 ?
Thanks in advance

Yes Bhanu actually results pretty ok. I am inputting fiscal year as 2007 and so the offset is 2006. My cibe does not have data for 2007 so the first column is empty and I have data in 2nd (offset) column whic is right data for 2006.
I will try what you suggested.
Thanks
Edited:
When I say RKF, i created it on LHS and then when I am trying to offset what I do is basically do the restrict again for fiscal year when its on right hand side. I hope I am doing that right?
Thanks
