Replace colour doesn't work.

Hello board,
I have a B&W image in my PS2 (black car, white background) but when I click on image > adjustments > replace colour, on the background for example, it just goes gray...not the nice blue I want. Huh? This worked before with other images so I'm not sure why this is happening this time. Any thoughts?
Cheers,
RS.

you can't replace black or white like that. use a hue/saturation/lightness adjustment layer. for black you need to lighten it before adding some color (hue & saturation). for white, you need to darken it a bit.

  • Smart quotes replacement STILL doesn't work

    Smart Quotes replacement in Pages STILL isn't fixed (after today's update).
    I sent Apple Feedback twice (about two months ago), I called them, I filed tickets…what does it take to fix a menu that DOESN'T WORK?
    Seriously, try this…
    Create a document with some straight quotes.
    Then: Edit, Substitutions, Show Substitutions, make sure Smart Quotes is checked, Replace All.
    IT DOESN'T WORK!
    (Please someone tell me I'm missing something here. Maybe I'm doing something wrong.)
    Running Pages 5.1 (1769), OS X 10.9.1

    No, you're doing it right. Try the exact same procedure in TextEdit, which also relies on OS X's text substitutions mechanism for this, and you'll find it works exactly as you expect. This is a lingering bug in Pages 5.

  • Text replacements synchronization doesn't work on my Mac

    Hello, I cannot make text replacements synchronization work on Yosemite (the same problem was on Mavericks – I hoped, that Yosemite will fix it, but it didn't). The symptoms are:
    Synchronization backend work properly: when I add or update shortcuts on my iPad, the change will appear in sqlite database stored in ~/Library/Dictionaries/CoreDataUbiquitySupport/... on my Mac
    When I go to Keyboard Preferences → Text, I can see shortcuts synchronized from my iPad there
    The shortcuts doesn't work in applications at all (even if they are enabled via Edit menu)
    I started to play with brand new user account on my Mac and I was able to make synchronization work. After some investigation I found that shortcuts are automaticaly copied from ~/Library/Dictionaries/CoreDataUbiquitySupport/... to ~/Library/Preferences/.GlobalPreferences.plist under NSUserDictionaryReplacementItems key on this new account, but on my real account they don't appear there. If I add some shortcut to .GlobalPreferences.plist manualy, it works in applications as expected. So something which is responsible for keeping CoreDataUbiquitySupport and .GlobalPreferences.plist in sync doesn't work, probably. Any ideas, how this can be fixed?
    By the way, there is one more issue with shortcuts: add/remove/reset to defaults buttons are missing in Keyboard Preferences → Text.

    Try PRAM reset.

  • Replacement screen doesn´t work :(

    Hi guys:
    My screen is broken, so I can only see half of it, although it still works. I bought a replacement screen on ebay, with the exact part number as mine, and after replacing it, it only shows a white screen with blurry colours, but nothing clear. I returned it and the second one I received does exactly the same...
    I was wondering if any of you here have had this issue as well.
    Thanks

    To be clear, your original screen was broken in such a way that you could only see half of the display? And both replacement screens show a white screen with blurry colors?
    It may be a long shot, but try going to System Preferences>Universal Access and check the "Seeing" Tab. Be sure the Zoom is off and the Contrast slider is set all the way to the left at "normal". If these features somehow got turned on, it might result in a screen that looks like yours. Also check under Displays to see that the resolution and brightness are properly set.
    Good luck!

  • Replace() function doesn't work in Application Designer?

    I'm using PeopleSoft Application Designer 8.51. I'm trying to do a simple Replace function so I can escape single quotes rather than allow them to blow up the sql query.
    &deptid = Replace(&deptid, "'", "''");
    App Designer chokes when I hit Save: "Invalid function parameter type. (2,19)"
    According to the docs I'm using this correctly: http://docs.oracle.com/cd/E26239_01/pt851h3/eng/psbooks/tace/book.htm?File=tace/htm/tace14.htm#H4095
    Even if I try to execute the example right out of the documentation, I get the same error: REPLACE("StringFun", "Fun", "Number");
    Is this a bug in app designer? REPLACE is a super common thing, it's not something obscure. How can this not work?
    Thanks in advance.

    I figured this out. “Replace” is a strange duck function that relies on offsets. “Substitute” is the magic I needed, works just like I was expecting Replace to work. The documentation I was reading on Replace was for “ PeopleSoft Analytic Calculation Engine” rather than peoplecode. I’ll pay closer attention to that next time. Maybe this will help someone else...

  • Superdrive replaced: now doesn't work: FRUSTRATED IN CT! Cursed?

    Replaced a faulty Superdrive inside the PB. Before putting it back together I tested the drive and it worked (sucking a disk in) /mounted. After putting it back together it doesnt work! Yes it shows up in the profiler. The disk will go in 95% of the way by hand--doesnt get grabbed inside. There is no noise or sense of anything moving inside the drive other than my manual inserting of the disc.
    I reopened it and checked the cable and its fine and attached. No luck.
    Ideas? Im going nuts!
    (could it be related to my previous post of not getting a startup chime; yet boots?)

    The drive does not show up in System Profiler. "Disc Burning" states "No burning device was found."
    This is the original drive that came with the computer and has never given me a problem until this upgrade.
    No discs are recognized when put into the drive, I tried four different ones besides the OS 10 Tiger install disc.
    I will add that when I did this install of Tiger, there were two discs provided and when the 1st one was done installing, it asked for the second one to be loaded, but would not eject the first one. The tech at the place I ordered them from said I should have done a "custom install" and had me reinstall the upgrade by restarting from the first disc. If I'd known that before I put the first one in, then I'd never have had to call the tech!
    I have no other problems with the machine or softwre now other than the drive issue.

  • Acrobat 8 Replace Pages Doesn't Work???

    I am having a strange issue with Acrobat 8 Pro 8.1.6 on Tiger (10.4.11)...
    Why is it that when I save a PDF after using Acrobat's Replace Pages feature, the "new" page disappears and the "old" page reappears when doing either a Save or Save As to the PDF???  Upon saving the PDF, it's as though I never made the change to begin with.
    This is happening on every PDF I have.
    Any ideas?
    Thanks,
    Jon

    You need to update the application software as well.

  • Replacement path does not work for a specific query after migration 7.0

    Hello all,
    We have a problem with a replacement path variable in a query.
    After the migration, it seems this replacement path doesn't work.  This replacement path is defined inside a structure that is used in some other queries and for the other queries is working properly.
    Another think we have done is to make a copy of the query where the replacement path doesn't work and the copied query works ok.
    Did anybody find this kind of problem in a migration. Any help will be appreciated.
    Regards, Inma

    This is just for those who might have simmilar requirement &  would in case refer to this thread..
    Me too faced same problem of OLE DB for OLAP cant be released. I was using  replacement path query variable which was using result set from the other  query.
    I just had to uncheck 'Allow External Access' in release for OLE  DB for OLAP in query properties. This worked from me, my query using replacement path variable is giving desired results.
    Hope this might be useful for relevant users.

  • Ipod touch 4th generation camera doesn't work after smashed screen replacement

    I have an ipod touch 4th generation that i smashed to screen with a torch, i got the screen replaced however my camera shutter will NOT open at all, i can go into camera roll and everything BUT the shutter wont open and the slide to go from camera to video just blinks a few times. Ive tried everything from turning it off and on(note my off/top button doesn't work) I had problems with the camera before i had the screen replaced but now it doesn't work at all. And will resetting and/or restarting it through iTunes delete ANY of the conent i have on my Ipod?
    Any help much appreciated as i can NOT afford to get it fixed at Apple!!

    If you restored to factory settings/new iPod and still have the problem that indicates a hardware problem.
    In that case take it back to the people who replaced the screen. They likely messed something up unless what broke the screen and broke the camera.

  • Google Instant, FB Chat & Netflix streaming doesn't work ? Mac replacement?

    February of 2010 I had an issue where Facebook chat did not work, I would sign into facebook and there wouldn't even been an option for facebook, like it never existed.
    Summer of 2010 I upgraded to Snow Leopard and did a complete wipe and install, started from scratch.
    This fixed the problem. I later got netflix and enjoyed watching movies on my mac.
    Then.. out of nowhere, facebook chat issue comes back, netflix doesn't work and says my computer doesn't meet the requirements (sarfar 3 and up, and 1Gb ram - i have safari 5 and 2g ram). And then google instant was released as well and that doesnt work. All while my girlfriends (summer 10') mac book pro works fine, as well as my cousins Mac Book Pro (Summer 09'), works just fine.
    Oh and all three +google instant, fb chat and netflix+ dont work with either safari, firefox or chrome.
    Here's what I have done so far.
    Called apple. Reinstalled Safari, firefox, chrome. Uninstalled, installed flashplayer. Called netflix, said it was apples problem, called apple said it was netflix.
    Then..
    Went to Mall of America apple. Booted from their own copy of Mac OS X 10.6.5 from jump HD and everything worked! He said all I have to do is find my Snow Leopard disk, hold C and boot up computer and just install it again.
    Just did that and it doesn't work, no change whatsoever.
    I really do NOT want to do a complete wipe and install, that was a huge hassle, and I could not do a simple time machine back up and install because whatever is in my current OS would be exported into the new OS installation, get it? So I lost many files, playlists, music, bookmarks, documents, pictures.
    This is the second time this has happened, what is my guarantee it wont happen a third time? It is definitely an OSX error or bug, but I have also had my track pad replaced three times since summer 2009, and a MagSafe battery adaptor replacement! Is there ever a time where Apple just replaces my MacBook?! I just upgraded to the 2 year extension, what will happen after 2 years? assuming my trackpad will need to be replaced 3x's every year and a OS reinstallation twice ever year?
    What are my options?
    Message was edited by: daveynielsen

    That was very helpful. I didn't know "escalate" was the key word to get his problem solved. So thanks!
    The Apple Support specialist said that if the trackpad fails a 4th time, and I ask to escalate that issue, then they would replace my whole Mac Book Pro.
    As for the netflix, fb chat and google instant. This was an issue caused by Net Barrier, a 3rd party program that deals with online security, and also that I had deleted. However, the startup items for this program were still intact.
    Solution
    Boot windows in Safe Mode (power + shift key) and test for changes.
    if it works in Safe Mode...
    go to Macintosh HD>Library>startupitems
    move all files under startupitems to the trash and reboot the computer.
    This is what solved my issue! Hope this is helpful to anyone else with a similar issue.

  • Having trouble 'replacing colour' in Photoshop Elements 12 + help does not work?

    I was trying to use the 'replace colour' function as found by going :-

    Adjust Colour > 
    Replace Colour
    Not knowing how it worked, I tried the context sensitive help in light blue. 'Learn More About'
    This would not load but gave me this response:-

    This 'help' seems to work everywhere else [well at least in the places I have tried so far.]
    So why is this? has anyone else had this specific area of HELP fail?  I need to know is it just my system, is it accessing this HELP stuff over the net, or is it preloaded when you by the retail pack?
    Course it would be in an area I can not make work!
    Note Other areas of help in this general menu area work eg
    i.e. the options either side of this all work fine.
    Any views guidance welcome.
    Other than reload the product! LOL I just don't have a spare week to waste getting it all going again!

    Hi Nealeh
    Thanks i think I got it working of a fashion.
    Except the replace colour, does not seem to end up with the colour I picked using the picker tool. Its as though it hads not replaced the colour but blended in the desired colour with the old incorrect colour!
    Buy trial and error picking not the right colour but close - which when mixed with the existing colour is close.
    Sorry I can't post the pictures as the Lingerie Mfg, has me under non disclosure.
    The scenario is:-  say a blonded mainly tanned model a high cut [at the hips] corsette style basque, with an ultra low bra line.
    Our dear model, has just come back from St Barts with a fabulous Tan, and equally striking bold Tan lines!.
    So we have great tanned legs, then the 'porcelain white band' where her swimsuit was.
    Likewise we have a tanned face, and arms, shoulders etc and a great tan on the top of the cleavage, then it stops, white band to the top of the ultralow cut bra line of the basque.
    She must have lived in like the most conservative bikini on the planet [50's style], for 2 weeks!
    Had she had a normal skimpy bikini on, no problem!
    If i don't solve it, she will get fired!
    Not a lack of interest in your post, but I was out, and tried to log in to this site; which I could do, on my iPad Air / 5 [whatever its the new one]. And tried to 'sign in' - but it just hung at the
    "Join Adobe Community" adobe sign in splash screen! with he little whell spinning around continuously!!!
    I have Safari on this iPad. Guess that is all it runs.
    So technology is not my friend today!

    Not sure which driver you mean when you say "the driver in the Mac's list". Apple does not provide a driver for this device, so if you mean one of the default printers that are included with 10.6, like the Generic Postscript or Generic PCL, then these will only work if the optional PS or PCL print kits were installed in the machine. Given your inability to print then it would seem that you have neither kit installed. So this would require you to install the Canon UFR2 driver, which you can obtain via this link.
    With the UFR2 driver installed, you add the printer using IP > LPD. Enter the IP address of the iRC2380, leave the Queue name blank and change the Name to iRC2380. Leave the Location field blank and in the Print Using menu, browse to the "Canon iR C2380/2550 UFR II (UK)". Click OK and then Add to complete the queue creation. You should now be able to print. Please reply if it does not work.
