Adjustment Brushes in Lightroom 3.6 have stopped working on my iMac

I have Lightroom 3.6 loaded on my iMac v10.6 and have been using it continuously for some time.     For the second time in just a few weeks the Adjustment Brushes/Sliders have stopped working correctly, that is there is no noticeable adjustment on my image [for example Brightness, Exposure, Clarity etc.].      I cannot remember what I was told to do to correct this problem last time I had to contact Adobe Support about this issue,  and I'm told I now have to pay for support for this product now as Lightroom 4 is released.
Is there a way I can fix the problem?
Thank You.

You've checked the density and flow sliders are set high enough?
Resetting your preferences would be next port of call http://members.lightroomqueen.com/index.php?/Knowledgebase/Article/View/1148/198/how-do-i- delete-the-lightroom-preferences-file

    2 of the 4 USB ports on my imac have stopped working. Has anyone else had the same problem? Anyone know how to get them working again?

    Hopefully the SMC reset works otherwise it may be a Logic Board issue.

    Shut down the computer.
    Unplug the computer's power cord and ALL peripherals.
    Wait 15 seconds.
    Attach the computers power cable.
    Wait another 5 seconds and press the power button to turn on the computer.
    The 5 second timing is important to a successful reset.
    PRAM RESET
    Zap the PRAM
    Shut down the computer.
    Locate the following keys on the keyboard: Command, Option, P, and R. You will need to hold these keys down simultaneously in step 4.
    Turn on the computer.
    Press and hold the Command-Option-P-R keys. You must press this key combination before the gray screen appears.
    Hold the keys down until the computer restarts and you hear the startup sound for the second time.
    Release the keys.

  • How can the adjustment brushes in lightroom 3 be fixed?

    I have no idea how this works.  The adjustment brush in lightroom 3 has stopped working.  Using a mac.  Customer support said if I pay $39 they might be able to fix the problem, but its better to ask on the forums.  Any suggestions on how to fix this?

    A quick guess or two, since you haven't really explained the symptoms.
    Are your Flow and Density sliders set to something reasonable?
    Try hitting the H (for hide) key.
    Is the Size slider set to something large enough?
    I'll only charge you $25.

  • Reinstalling The Skin Soften Adjustment Brush in Lightroom 3.5

    Last week I accidentally deleted the "Skin Soften" adjustment brush in Lightroom 3.3. I upgraded to Lightroom 3.5 hoping it would reinstall the adjustment brush, but no such luck. I am having trouble locating information and understanding how to reinstall this brush. If anyone could help me do this, it would be much appreciated. Thanks!

    Go to Preferences, Presets Tab, and click "Restore Local Adjustment Presets".

  • My external speakers have stopped working. A circle with a line through it shows up when I try to adjust the volume.  I have been in system prefrences to check all the sound settings and everything is set properly.  What do I need to do to fix this. Help!

    Though I have doubts for success, you might try a SMC reset.  It can do no harm.  Otherwise, barring suggestions from others, the Apple Store or qualified repair facility is the last option.

  • LR3 - my brushes have stopped working

    My brushes have stopped working for some reason. Spot removal still works fine..
    I have tried the following:
    I cleared the history.
    I cleaned out the cache.
    I have tried an update from the adobe website (now at LR 3.6)
    I have restarted the computer after every try.
    I'm stuck now. Any ideas?

    Do you have either the Flow or the Density sliders (or both) set to a very low number? If so, increase the value.

  • Adobe Photoshop Lightroom 64-bit has stopped working [Lightroom 5 Beta]

    I was looking for a Lightroom 5 Beta forum but am unable to find one.  Today, I downloaded and installed LR5 Beta on my new HP Envy 64-bit Windows 8 machine.  After running an installation, I started the program.  At first, it asked about opening a catalogue during which time I created a new one as I have no intention of using my LR4 catalogue for LR5B.  After creating the catalogue, it stated the following:
    "Adobe Photoshop Lightroom 64-bit has stopped working.  A problem caused the program to stop working correctly.  Windows will close the program and notify you if a solution is available."
    After it closed, I tried opening it again.  Same result.  No matter how many times I tried, the program would not open.  I tried reinstalling the program to no avail using the "repair" feature.  Finally, I just removed the program.

  • Adobe Photoshop Lightroom 64 bit has stopped working error

    I had not been using my laptop for a while and decided to install lightroom 3.2.  I did the install and now when I try to start lightroom I get the error message in the subject line:
    Adobe Photoshop Lightroom 64 bit has stopped working
    I have a Windows 7 laptop, with 6gb RAM, ATI Radeon video card.  The laptop is working well, except I just noticed that Photoshop CS5 64 bit and After Effects both give a similar error upon starting those applications as well.
    Any ideas as to how I can solve this problem.
    Thanks,

  • My iphone5 speakers have stopped working.  the headphones still work as does the ringer.  the phone indicates it is still in headphone mode.  does anyone know how to fix this ?

    after running i disconnected my iphone headset.  since then my iphone speakers have stopped working.  i can still listen to music using headphones and the phone ringer still works but the speakers are silent.  when i adjust the volume it indicates it is in "headphone" mode.  Any idea how i can solve this problem ?

    I have read in other threads with similar problems that cleaning the headphone jack/port seems to usually work.  The simplest method is to rapidly plug/unplug the headphones a few times.  See if that works.

  • Help please - have a Nano and a Shuffle and neither are working! The Nano wheel appears to have stopped working - I can't get it to do anything. I've done the reset,it worked the first time but not since. And the shuffle won't sync with my library!

    Hi,
    I have an iPod shuffle 4th generation and an iPod Nano 5th generation . The Nano wheel appears to have stopped working - I can't get it to play or anything. I've done the reset and it worked the first time, but now the only way I can get it to play anything is to shake it and go with the shuffle choices - I can't change volume, song, pause or turn it off.
    So, I decided to start using the Shuffle which I was given as a present last year. I've plugged it into my laptop (running windows 8 and newest version of iTunes). It appears in iTunes on the left hand side, but when I click to sync (whether I tick sync all or choose artists) it says synched but has no music. It seems to not be linked to the music library - when I tick synch all songs, next to the "sync music" it says 0 songs?
    Any help to fix either would be really appreciated - I'm without any music at the moment and I'm going away this weekend!
    Thanks

    Hi Bblairjones,
    If you are having issues with your Nano and Shuffle, you may want to try the Troubleshooting Assistants on the following page:

    I recently started to get an error message "MobileMe Services have stopped working".  I use Vista.  If I remove the MobileMe program, will it affect syncing with my iPhone or with Google Calendar?

    No, just uninstall the MobileMe control panel. All Mobileme services have been discontinued, so the control panel is not doing you any good being in there at present.
