Adjustment brush in Raw 8.3 not working???

Upgraded Bridge and camera raw from the adobe creative cloud desktop. Also upgraded all CS6 apps. Upgrade went smoothly. Having problem in Camera Raw 8.3. The problem is with the adjustment brush. It is not working at all. I can add a new adjustment, when I make any adjustment there is no adjustment. Also I cannot see the mask, or cannot toggle mask on and off. Absolutely no adjustment with adjustment brush. Running windows 8.
Then I went and paid for the 9.99 subscription. Downloaded both ps cc, bridge cc and lightroom 5. Download fine, all apps working fine with both versions installed. Having same issue with the adjustment brush when using bridge cc to ACR camera raw 8.3.
First time user of lightroom, seems like the adjustment brush inside lightroom will make the adjustment. I can’t see where to toggle on and off the mask. I see the “mask:” at top of adjustment box but nothing next to it or unable to click anything. I will continue to understand how the mask works in lightroom. When I click automask again I dont see a mask??
Any suggestions. I may redownload the windows version of the camera raw 8.3 update and try again.
Hope I have explained this well enough?

OH JEEZ!!! That was it! It did seem odd that everything worked except the adjustment brush. Thanks for the help.

Adjustment Brush coverage/Raw 7.1

Downloaded 7.1 beta to open Cr2 files from Canon 5D Mark3. Onle real hitch I have found in using the adjustment brush in Raw. With flow and density at 100%, minimal feathering, and brush hardness 100%, notice a lot of "speckling" where the affect has not "taken"...i.e., with an exposure at -.5, several areas will only be partially darkened. Multiple passes will improve, but this is not consistent with behavior of previous versions. I do not know if this is restricted to exposure, as most other setting, clarity, sharpness, noise reduction etc. are less distinct in their impact. Hopefully, issue will resolve with release of full update.

Do you have Auto Mask turned on?

Camera Raw 8.4 not working in Lightroom 5

Hi:
did install the CR 8.4 Beta. Can now preview .NEF files taken with the Nikon D4S in Photoshop and Bridge, however in Lightroom this is not working. Any idea why this is? Is there a workaround or a solution?
Thx

You’ve installed the Adobe Camera Raw 8.4 PLUG-IN for Photoshop.
The term Camera Raw also refers to the version of internal programming, a coyp of which is included in the plug-in and in Lightroom, and in the DNG Converter, although each has its own copy.
Updating the Photoshop ACR 8.4 plug-in that contains the CR engine 8.4 doesn’t change Lightroom 5.3 which contains the copy of the CR engine 8.3, still.
What we’re waiting for is the next version of Lightroom to be released, likely called LR 5.4, which has its copy of the Camera Raw engine 8.4.
The DNG Converter 8.4 beta has also been released and you can use it to create DNGs from your new camera’s raw files that will open in the older Lightroom, but I’d only do that experimentally, and not delete your original raws, in case something is changed by the time of the final release.

Raw.plist trick not working anymore?

Hi
I edited my Raw.plist file to enable CoreImage to decode Sony DSC-R1 DNG files. It has always worked fine. Yesterday I tried to import a few new files and it does not work anymore. Older DSC-R1 DNG files are opening fine but new ones are not. I only get the small thumbnail. Same behaviour in Preview. I use Adobe DNG Converter 3.6. I tried different sttings (embedding original or not, compressing or not) all with the same results. I wonder if it is not related to the last OS update.
Anyone has an idea? If this does not work anymore, either my DSC-R1 or Aperture lose some usefulness.

I've transferred the project to FCP and edited it there.

Adjustment Brush - Full list under Effect not appearing.

Hi, 'am a new user of LR3.2 running on iMac and on Macbook Pro. On my iMac I was able to see the full list of Effects for Adjustment Brush but for the last couple of days I only see top half of the choices i.e., from Exporsure to Color and the bottom half choices i.e., from Burn to Teeth Whitening are not visible. However, LR3.2 on my Macbook Pro is running fine and shows all the choices. Would appreciate if anyone has any suggestion / solution to my above problem.

gummybear (I like the nick ),
The second half of "Effects" you see in the dropdown are custom created Local Adjustment Presets, which do not seem to be present on both of your machines.
Go to Preferences (Presets tab), and click on "Show Lightroom Presets Folder ...". This will lead you to the lightroom presets folder in finder. Within the LR presets folder, you'll see a folder called "Local Adjustment Presets", in which the custom built presets can be found. Copy those of your iMac to your Macbook Pro.
You could also try clicking on "Restore Local Adjustment Presets" first, but this will not restore Local Adjustment Presets you might have created yourself, just the ones shipped with LR3.2.

Adjustment brush bugged? Image areas not brushed over change nevertheless

Problem:
I used the adjustment brush to brighten up an area in an image (+0.2 exposure). Doing so, a nearby but not connected area and not touched by the brush brightened up as well, going from almost blown out to blown out as shown by the red warning overlay.
System:
Pentium i5 machine, Windows 7 home premium 64 bit, 8 GB RAM
Lightroom 3.3 64 bit
Here are some illustrations:
before applying the brush (note the blue are near the upper edge not yet blown out)
I am applying the brush here (note area marked in red, not touching the blue almost blown out part near the top edge):
And this is what happens to the blue area when applying the brush:
The funny thing is, when I hover the cursor over the brush pin (as in the second picture above), the blue area to the top left is NOT marked blown out (as can be seen in the second picture).
Something strange is going on here. Either the red 'blown out' overlay is not functioning correctly in this situation, or the adjustment brush is bugged. It should obviously not have any effect on areas that have not been brushed over.
Any thoughts?

Thanks Lee Jay for the quick reply. I did search before posting but apparently have not used the right terms.
It seems this is known for quite a while. Has Adobe made any statement on a workaround or that this is being fixed?
I understand this is something occurring in unusual circumstances only but still, it's a bug....
I think the problem is that they cannot reproduce the issue, hence no fix yet.

Camera Raw Universal update not working

Hey there .... heeeeelp ....
I've just upgraded to a Mac Book Pro Core 2 Duo system, and it seems like the Camera Raw updater is not functioning on this system.
I get no previews with my Canon 400D/XTi on import, which is what this update was supossed to address. I've installed the update several times, looked in the Frameworks to find the plist file and the entry for my camera is indeed in there.... but still no previews on import.
Anyone else have this problem?
Anyone know of a solution?

Hello There
Are you getting unsupported file format instead of the preview? If so try downloading to a folder on the desktop instead of straight into Aperture. Set the "when a camera is connected" preference in Aperture to image capture and then import your images from the folder.
What you describe happened with my 400D particularly when importing a large number of RAW images.

Camera Raw Filter is not working correctly in Photoshop CC when applied to video layer

With Photoshop CC, when editing a video and adding a "Camera Raw Filter" to some video layer, the effect will be applied only to one frame and not to the whole video layer.
Should it not add that filter to the whole layer (e.g. all frames in that clip)?

Either it's a bug or a limitation. Haven't yet tried this, so I can't tell you whether it works as it should or is acting up... I would however assume that within what one can expect it works as designed - ACR doesn't have a built-in timeline, so there would be nothing for the PS routines to request retrieval of frames from withing the SO.

Camera Raw 4.6 not working with D700

I have a PC with Windows XP Pro, 1 GB of RAM and Service Pack 2, Photoshop CS3 and the latest version of Camera Raw 4.6
When I open ACR, it does show that I am using Camera Raw 4.6 Beta version and it seems to work properly with my Nikon D200 NEF files.
However, when I try to see my Raw NEF files from a new Nikon D700 camera, the bridge DOES show the hi-res thumbnail images, but when I press Ctrl+R keys to open the image in ACR, absolutely nothing happens.
Now if I open Photoshop and then navigate to the exact same NEF file (that wouldn't respond to be opened in ACR,) it WILL open in ACR using the very same Camera Raw 4.6.
Any comments?
Thank you,
Monte Evans

Can you tell me why my computer at my studio sees my D700 NEF files and it "only" has Camera Raw 4.5? The Nikon D700 is not listed as a camera that is supported on this version. I had to update my home computer to 4.6 to make it work. (or maybe I should have tried purging the cache on that computer before trying the Beta version 4.6). Looking back, my studio computer should not be able to see these NEF files.

NIKON D70 RAW files do not work since upgrading to Aperture 1.1.1

Prior to the software update to 1.1.1 everything was working fine with my D70 Raw files. I now get the maroon "Unsupported Image Format" (USF) when I select the images that were previously fine. They show up for a fraction of a second before I get the error. I tried rebuilding the database to no avail. I can export the RAW files and open them in Photoshop so they are OK. Also now when I import from my D70 I get the gray box instead of the image and a letterbox maroon USF message. I have not seen any posts relative to this issue and wonder if there is something else going on.

repairing disk permissions in safe boot mode:
1. To Repair Disk Permissions in Safe Boot restart your computer while holding the Shift key
2. Do not let go of the Shift key until your screen says Safe Boot
3. Once you see the screen with the words Safe Boot let go of the Shift key. If you need to login, login
4. Open Disk Utility located in the Utility folder of your Applications folder, it'll be down at the bottom
5. Select the hard drive that contains your OS & make sure that First Aid is selected (highlighted) in the Disk Utility window
6. Select Repair Disk Permissions
7. When Disk Utility has done its job you'll see the words "Permissions repair complete"
8. While you're at it & since the system is in Safe Boot I'll Verify the other hard drives & Repair them if they need it
Once the utility program has run through the operating system you can quit the application and restart the computer
I routinely use the Repair Disk Permissions feature in the Disk Utility application on Mondays (Maintenance Monday) so I park an icon of it in the Dock. It is a good idea to Repair Disk Permissions more frequently if you are power editing for many hours at a time or the application you are working on begins to misbehave.
Regardless of what application you are using (unless there is a known bug in the application) Repairing Disk Permissions will take care of many problems.
It is recommended to Repair Disk Permissions before & after installing software or software updates

Camera RAW plug-in not working

Hi,
I recently downloaded the Camera RAW 5.6 update for Elements 8 but even after following the instructions carefully and verfigying that the plug was added I cannot open a RAW file in photoshop. I am not sure what the problem and am hoping someone with more experience in this area can help me.
Help?
Thanks,
Cara

Yes, we didn't start supporting the D3100 until the 6.3 version of the camera raw plug-in (Source: Camera Raw plug-in | Supported cameras). This version of the camera raw plug-in doesn't work with Photoshop Elements 8 (Source: Camera Raw-compatible Adobe applications). In order to natively support the D3100, you'd need Photoshop Elements 9 or later (10 is the current version). The other option is to convert your raw NEF files to DNG (a universal raw format) by using the DNG Converter: Mac|Windows.

Raw fine tuning not working in slideshows

Hi,
Does anyone know why when I adjust the de-noise level of an image in Raw Fine Tuning and then use that image in a slideshow why the adjustment is not applied to the image shown in the slideshow?
I've tried regenerating the preview but it didn't make any difference.
Thanks
Ian

I think I've fixed my own problem - I changed the preview quality setting and it's OK now.

CS2 RAW plug in not working :o(

Hi guys, i have CS2 on a windows 7 laptop. I have recently started college and im desperate to be able to open RAW files. i have downloaded the plug in, but i still cant open them. any help in simple terms would be great. my camera is a nikon d90 NEF RAW is the file type. thanks : o)

Open the DNG converter application. It looks like this:
Then you run through the four sections. First you browse to the folder where you put the D90 NEFs. Just leave that folder selected - the app doesn't convert single files, it converts whole folders.
Same for destination folder, except you can choose to just save in the same folder.
In 3, rename the files if you like, or leave at "document name".
In 4 you pick ACR version compatibility. Since you're on CS2, that'll have to be "2.4 and later". You can also choose to embed the original NEF in the DNG, so that it can be extracted later. Not necessary if you also keep the NEFs, but do one or the other so that you can use a newer ACR version later with full functionality.
Hit "convert". When finished, you have a folder of DNGs that can be opened in ACR 3 (which is what you have).

PSE 11 - Adjustment Layer/Layer Content Options & Menus Not Working

Good evening to all.
I am using PSE 11, Mac version, updated to the latest version.
I am unable to edit any type of adjustment layer, i.e., hue/saturation, levels, brightness/contrast.
I am able to edit fill layers without any issues.
As a side note, I am also unable to select any of the items under the "Window" menu.
I am attaching a screen capture of the menu that I am talking about.
Thank you very much in advance for any and all your help.

Good evening. I guess you're correct. I was just too frustrated to think straight and I guess these are two different issues, so I'll begin with the adjustment layer issue.
I'm attaching several screen captures to show you what I mean by not being able to edit adjustment layers.
This screen would be my original image
This screen shows me adding a new adjustment layer from the "Layer" menu...
In this case, a hue/saturation adjustment layer
As you can see, I have the adjustment layer on right side... but when I double click on it to edit the layer, nothing happens
Nothing happens when I try to edit the adjustment layer when I try to use "Layer Content Options..." from the menu directly either
So there you have it... this is where I am stuck at...
