Can't find Pixel Bender in CS5

Sorry if this item has been discussed before, but After installing Pixel Bender (via the Extension Manager) I can't find it under the Filter menu.
My system meets the requirements, my video card drivers are up tp date, The Photoshop CS 5 Extended version is 12.0.1 (32x).
The Extension Manager panel shows Pixel Bender and it is checked.
I removed and reinstalled it several times but with no succes. Does anyone know what to do next?

@ MTSTUNER
No, it is not listed there.
In PS CS5 after closing I get a warning that the application has crashed (adobeowl.dll). Contacted Adobe about this but got no reply. Lightroom crashes when using the Detail Masking slider (posted that in the appropriate forum). This doesn't seem to get fixed either.
Pixel Bender won't install and I just give up, don't want to waste any more time by visiting yet another forum.
I guess Windows XP is not really supported by Adobe. And there are problems with Win 7 too, I read. Maybe it's better to switch to Mac and use Aperture in combination with The Gimp?
But thanks for the help anyway.

  • Can't download Pixel Bender for CS5

    I've tried clicking directly on the link on the Adobe downloads page for Pixel Bender and also the links offered in the forum. Same result each time, a very long page of mostly question marks comes up but no other indication that PB is downloading. I have Photoshop 12.0.4 x 64. I checked to make sure the Adobe Extension Manager CS5 is in my Applications folder and it is. What am I doing wrong?

  • I can't find pixel bender under my filter list..

    I installed pixel bender by right clicking the extension manager and running as administrator.  Then I selected the file (pixel bender) to install.  Everything seemed to work fine, but when I'm done, Pixelbender is nowhere to be found under the filter menu.  I checked the 32 bit and 64 bit CS5, but it's not there.  Any ideas?
    Thanks,
    Tim

    Yes, I did use Extension Manger CS5.  I right clicked extension manager and ran as administrator.  It show the file (pixel bender) and install it.  I have tried re-installing and it tells me there is already a version installed.  I've overwritten that version with no luck.  I've re-downloaded pixel bender and re-installed, with no luck.  If I go to Program Files>adobe/adobe photoshop CS5 (64bit)>Plug-Ins>Filters, there is a Pixel Bender.8bf file.  However, It is not in my filters list on CS5. Also, there is a Pixel Bender file in Program Files>Adobe>Adobe Photoshop CS5.   It is Called Pixel Bender Files.
    Please help..
    Thanks,

    I have just downloaded pixel bender for CS5 and know I get this message The image dimensions exceed the hardware capabilities of your GPU.  What do I need to do to make it work

    What are the pixel dimensions of the image?
    You might try reducing the pixel dimensions of the image and see if that makes a difference.

  • Can't get pixel bender to load in my CS5. The plugin does not work.  Help!!!

    Went to all the places to get the Plugin for pixel bender.  When I load it in it stops and says I need permission form the administrator to do so.  Where do I go from here??  Loaded in the 2.5 pixel bender tool kit but you also need the plugin. I have CS5 and also CCS6 can't get that Pixel Bender or Oil Paint filter in any of them.  I keep trying!!  Any suggestions are very much appreciated!!

  • Can't install pixel bender for CS4

    When I click on the download for pixel bender for CS4, it downloads the one for CS5. Can someone give me the correct file to download? I need one for both 32 bit and 64 bit (two different computers). Thanks!

    Thanks for the summary--it definitely helped. The problem you are describing is well known and has been discussed, documented, and resolved many times and in many places. You need to run Adobe Extension Manager CS4 as administrator (right-click the Adobe Extension Manager executable and select "Run as administrator" from the contextual menu) in order to install the Extension. This is necessary because of the elevated privileges required to access the Program Files directory and sub-directories. Please see the installation instructions found here http://labs.adobe.com/technologies/pixelbenderplugin/ or my answer (posed in the form of a question) in this message http://forums.adobe.com/message/3877496#3877496.

  • Installation Issues Pixel Bender Photoshop Cs5

    I have read previous threads with the same issues installing Pixel Bender in PH SC5.
    I have Windows 7 and I have Photoshop CS5 Extended and I also keep getting the error message of not having permission to install the software.
    I am not computer friendly so perhaps I need more simple instructions to get this to work.  So I understand I have to right click on Adobe Extension Mananger 5 to run as administrator.  Does that mean I fist have to download Adobe Extension Manger 5, open the zip file and click on the SET UP folder?
    Then download the pixelbender plug-in AND WHAT?  I went this route and double clicked on the plug in which opens Adobe Mananger 5 which again tells me I have no permission to run it.
    Please be as simple as possible and step by step, apparently this is an issue with a few other people.
    Thank you for your help!

  • Can I install Pixel Bender on Photoshop CS3?

  • Can't find "articles panel" in CS5.7.0.4

    Trying to follow Mike Rankin's video on using the articles panel.
    Except I can't find it, now I've upgraded to CS5 7.0.4, not under window, nowhere.
    Did this go out with the 5.5 version?
    Trying to export a content list based on links.
    Any help greatly appreciated!

    Ach. Well, if there is any stupidity involved, it certainly isn't yours. It's an insanely easy fact to overlook.  In fact, I spent a minute goggling at your post title "CS5.7.0.4" and wondering if I'd missed something... "there's a new 5.x dot release, already? But they just released the last one a few months ago...?" before I realized what was going on.

  • Please Help !! Can't find "outline" button in CS5 ? (not blending option "outline")

    Please Help !! I can't find a button named "outline" in CS5?? 
    Can someone please help me figure out how to "outline" my logo in CS5 so it can get printed on a window decal?
    I did it once but now I can't remember how I did it,
    Any help would be great !!
    Thank you

    As MST says, the PS term for outline is Stroke.
    If the logo is on its own layer, you can also do it via Blending Mode > Stroke where you can tweak the parameters.

  • I can't install Pixel Bender because the Extensions Manager won't open.

    HI1  I can't install Pixel vender because the Extensions manger won't open.  I get the message that it has "unexpectedly quit" and then I'm supposed to send a report to Apple.  Of course, nothing comes of that.  Does anyone have any suggestions?  Thanks for your help.
    Best,
    Endre

    Dear Endre,
    Please back up all files in the folder /Library/InputManagers and remove those files, and then try to launch Extension Manager. It may solve the issue.
    You can also to try the following method:
    Remove all old Extension Manager preference and application support files.
    To delete the application support files for Extension Manager CS5, please navigate to folder '/Users/<current user>/Library/Application Support/Adobe/Extension Manager CS5', then back up all files in the folder, and then delete all files and sub directories in the folder.
    To delete the preference file for Extension Manager CS5, please navigate to folder '/Users/<current user>/Library/Preferences/Adobe/Extension Manager CS5', then back up all files in the folder, and then delete all files and sub directories in the folder.
    If neither above way works, please use the below method to gather crash log and I will check those crash log. Thanks.
    As you mentioned, when Extension Manager crashes, there would be a dialog to ask for sending report to Apple. In that dialog, you can view the crash log by clicking report button. Then you can copy the crash log and paste it into the forum.
    Best wishes,
    chengyon
