Adjustment Layer Problem

My Sepia and other options have disappeared in
LAYER > NEW ADJUSTMENT LAYER > PHOTO FILTER > OK.
They've been replaced by a bunch of numbers and letters.
I have version 4 on Mac OS X and can't figure out how to reload
the original filters.
This seamed to have happened after I'd played around with Gradient Maps.
Thanks So Much to anyone who can help!

Quit PSE, then relaunch it while holding down command+option+shift. Keep holding the keys till you see a message asking if you want to delete the settings file. You do.
I'd also repair permissions.

Hue/Saturation Adjustment layer problems

I posted earlier about having problems printing with new color laser printer and colors printing wrong. It is not the printer, the printer prints perfect color from what I see on my screen (calibrated). Have narrowed it down to a hue/saturation adjustment layer. When I open and print a scrapbook paper (brownish color jpg) with out doing anything to it, it prints perfect color. When I add an hue/saturation adjustment layer (to change the color to blue) then it won't print the right color. I have checked "colorize" and unchecked "colorize" when adding an adjustment layer. I have tried flattening the image and merging the layers before printing. I have unclipped the adjustment layer to the layer below. It prints the wrong colors only when I add a hue/saturation layer
What am I missing? This is driving me absolutely crazy!!!
Thanks!

You could try Layer - Flatten just for the moment of printing (don't forget to undo it afterward).
Seems too basic a problem, though... I more strongly suspect a color management problem.
Is there a difference in the way you're opening the file that prints well vs. the one that's a problem? Or is this one and the same file?
What is your document profile?
What do you have set in the Photoshop print dialog for color management?
What do you have set in the printer driver for color management?

Adjustment Layer problem (Premier Pro CC)

Whenever I add an adjustment layer on the top of a video and apply any effect to it, I don't see any created effect from the adjustment layer. The only way to fix this is to restart PP and the effect will be visible. But this is just annoying.
Thanks any advance.
Specs:
Windows 7 on latest updates
Premier Pro CC on latest updates (v7.2.2)
I use GTX 780 (unclocked) but my CPU (i7 2600k) is overclocked (4.6ghz)
16gb RAM (overclocked)
All of my other PC stuff are installed on latest drivers too

nevermind, it's Red Giant problem at thier end...

B&W Adjustment Layer Problem in CS4

I am fairly proficient at PS and have used B&W adjustment layers often to create great black and whites. One of the best features of the B&W adj. layers is the "on-image" color adjustments (the hand with the left/right arrows in the upper left cornet of the adj panel which allows you to drag in the image to adjust the grayscale value of any color in the image). This has worked great until recently.
All of sudden, my B&W adj layer started acting strangly. The on-image slider does not activate an eye dropper icon and all the sliders are always showing specific numbers. When I try to manually slide a color slider, it changes the image as if the slider was moved...but the number in the slider box never changes. Very weird. The same "on-image" function is also available on a curves adjustment layer, and it works just fine.
Has anyone ever experienced their B&W adjustment layers to exhibit this behavior before?
I am running CS4 11.0.2, Win XP. I can think of nothing that has changed in my system lately.
Thanks for any insight.
-Jim

Thanks, I might try that, but the B&W adjustment layer isn't really a "tool" and the on-image picker is unique to that panel - so I'm not sure what resetting a tool preference (or all tool preferences for that matter) would do.
However, I may try it anyway if I continue to not find a solution.
Thanks,
-Jim

Black&White adjustment layer problem

Hi all,
When I try to apply a black&white adjustment layer in Photoshop CS3 Ext., I get the dreaded message: "Could not complete yor request because of a program error". This is true for Tiffs and PSDs (8bit multi layered or 8bit flat) but not for jpegs. Is this a bug or a feature? Or am I doing something wrong?
Thanks for you time,
Francois Hendrickx

Could be a hardware acceleration issue with the b&w effect. Turn off OpenGL to verify. also make sure your adjustment layer is not clipped/ masked/ repositioned/ smaller than your comp. Remeber: The adjustment layer merely defines the area to which the effect will be applied, the actula processing still happens on the buffer below it. For anything else we will need more info ansd screenshots. We do not even know what version of AE you are referring to.

Huge Bugs with Many Legs Still Living in Premiere Pro - (Border from Sharpening & Flickering from Adjustment Layer)

I haven't edited video in awhile. While working on a new project I've run into a bunch of what I suppose are well known issues in Premiere Pro CC 2014. It seems Adobe has know about these issues for some time, but that for some reason, nothing is being done about them. Here is my most recent experience with editing a video using PP:
1. Found that color correction tools in Premiere Pro for setting White Balance Suck for folks who don't edit video 8 hours a day.
Searched on web to find solution find that Adobe has no fix but random humans have found hack solution: White Balance in Premiere Pro CC on Vimeo
The dude shows you how to use the Cyroce Color Neutralizer plugin from After Effects - but sure enough the current version of the plugin that ships with AE CC 2014 doesn't work with premiere any more so you have to download the old version from dude's website here: http://www.sternfx.com/tutorials/136
Thanks to the DUDE!
2. Found out that adding an Adjustment layer can cause flickering in footage.
Searched on web to find solution find that Adobe has no fix but random humans have found hack solution: PP CC 2014 - adjustment layers flickering problem : Adobe Premiere Pro AND Re: image flickering from adjustment layer
Added mask to control flickering. More specifically, I turned each effect in the adjustment layer on and off until I found the particular effect that was causing the flickering. Then I created a mask in that effect which covered the entire frame. Mystically the flickering disappeared. Learned that if you make any changes to adjustment layer effects, flickering will return and you have to delete/recreate the mask once again. Ridiculous.
3. Thought all was good and that I could now peacefully continue to finish my project. I was wrong. Found that adding sharpening in adjustment layer causes a small border to form around the entire frame. The pixels seem faded or translucent or something.
Searched on web to find solution find that Adobe has no fix but random humans have found hack solution: Sharpening bug Premiere Pro - - Fourmedia
So now I've learned that the sharpening effect needs to go on it's own adjustment layer. Awesome.
Flickering returns because I made a change to adjustment layer 1. Re-mask. Sweet.
That's it. Pretty sure this post will help folks out, but man I am going to run out and give another NLE a shot. None of these operations should be this difficult. Makes me wonder if Adobe even attempts to use their own programs. I don't see how anyone could possibly let a huge tool like Premiere Pro suffer from these issues -- and for so long a period of time. Absolutely ridiculous. Adobe truly seems to be asleep at the wheel. This is some amateur crap here.

Thanks for this post. It would be cool (since Adobe doesn't seem to use their products) if there were more posts like this that I could read before I upgrade. I'm having the flickering w adjustment layer problem you mentioned in #2 - and this post is over month old! Aghh

Problem: curve adjustment layer in cs4

Ive upgraded to CS4 and I have found that the curves Adjustment layer runs slow and sticky and Its difficult to make fine adjustments. (the regular curves window works fine but you cant save it as an adjustment layer) I am running 10.5.6 on a 2x3 GHz Dual-core intel with 9gb of ram, a scratch disk of raid 0 with 500gb of freespace. This should not be a problem for my machine. is there a setting I am missing or is CS4 no good?

I understand your annoyance about this. I didn't say it doesn't work, it does.
"fine, critical moves that are intuitive and subtle" that's the problem with the new adjustments panel, it is more difficult to make these fine adjustments, still possible just less responsive. You can still bring up the old dialog.
Did you do a search to find my explanation of how to use CS3 to create Actions that will bring up the modal dialog? I'm not going to take the time to explain it again, if you haven't done this. There is also a Configurator panel that John Knack posted has two buttons 'create new curve' and 'edit existing curve'. Configurator is a new app that Adobe have introduced. Read all the discussions so far on the forum.

MOTION TRACKING PROBLEM WITH ADJUSTMENT LAYER

Hi.
I'm trying to blur out a logo on a shoe, but I'm having some difficulty getting the tracker to stick to the logo. Can someone help me, please. Here are the steps I took:
1. I used Tracker to track a logo that I want to blur out.
2. After analyzing the layer, I went back to check the attach point frame by frame The attach point is centred perfectly on the logo on every frame.
3. Then, I added an adjustment layer, and used the pick whip to ensure that the position of the adjustment layer is the same as the attach point position from the tracker.
4. On the adjustment layer, I created an ellipse mask, applied a gaussian blur. But when I do playback, the ellipse mask is all over the place and not sticking to the logo.
Does anyone have an idea as to what I'm doing wrong? Any advice would be appreciated. Thanks, in advance.

To start off I always apply tracking data to a null then parent the null to the layers that should follow the track.
Make sure that you have picked the right target. Make sure that you've picked the right options. You should be using Transform as the track type. You should also do a quick Google search. There are a bunch of tracking tutorials out there.
If your null follows the object then you can parent the adjustment layer to the null. That should do it.

Problem Adjustment Layer PP CS6

Hello everyone, you have the same bug as me in the first pro CS6 and layers of effects.
Mounting with the gpu, in a sequence dslr, I put an adjustment layer on top of a video, I use a level on the adjustment layer (so far so good, the effect is clearly visible) and as soon as I play on the opacity effect (to fade on two key eg), the effect is no longer visible.
If you have any feedback I'm interested. thank's in advance

Ok, here is the info:
*Premiere cc
*updates are installed as far as I know..
*Windows 8 pro
*Video files: MTS files (sony fs700)
*Error message when exporting: "Error compiling movie. Uknown error"
The culprit from my point of view is the adjustment layer. As soon as I remove it from the timeline it seems to work..
I think it has been working in the past..
No other software is running in the background of notice as far as I am concerned...
I have third party codecs installed but none of them where used here. I used fast collorcorrection and procamp on the adjustmentlayer.
Hardware:
intel i7 3930K
32GB RAM
nvidia 680 GTX 4GB
samsung 840 pro ssd
Im using mercury playback engine GPU accelerator
this only happends when doing final export as far as I know. I can play the clip in the timeline even if the effects on adjustmentlayer isnt working properly when using opacity keyframes.

Media Encoder CC rendering adjustment layer seperately

I just bought a new Mac Pro with all the goodies there were available and now want to use it as the central Mac for exporting Premiere Pro sequences.
We work from a central server which has all the projects on it. Our different co-workers here sit behind their Macs and open projects from the server.
I've set up AME on the Mac Pro to check a watch folder for Final Cut XML's which my co-workers export from their Mac's. The problem is that whenever
there is an adjustment layer in a sequence.. AME exports that separately from the rest of the sequence. How do I get it to export just the sequence with
the adjustment layer in it?
Thanks!

Adjustment layers are not support by FCP XML so this will never work unfortunately. I do see the issue you describe though and how the adjustment layer is interpreted varies based on whether you exported the sequence or the project. However, the point is irrelevant since the adjustment layer will never render properly regardless of how you export the XML.

Why are the adjustment layer controls grayed out?

I have used an adjustment layer in CS5 and when it was first used I could adjust everything. Now most of the controls have grayed out and whilst I can slide the sliders I can not type figures in nor use the radio buttons! Why has it locked me out? It has happened on a few images and with both Colour Balance and Hue and Saturation Layers.
The image above shows the problem with the top Colour Balance layer where I can not select Shadows or Highlights, nor type in figures for the sliders BUT I can slide them and change the tick on Preserve Luminosity! The basic image being edited is an 8-bit RGB file.
Adding a new adjustment layer (Colour Balance) on top of this one initially showed the same problem but after adding 3 more new adjustment layers suddenly eveything came back to fully working again - even the original problem layer!
This problem keeps happening with some of my images. It is happening on all 3 of our photoshop PC's, so it looks like a basic PS bug. Has anyone else seen this or know why it happens?

Thanks for the suggestion but that has no effect on them being grayed out or not. When this problem occurs it does not matter if the Mask is highlighted OR the adjustment itself.
But thanks anyway.
I am currently without the issue on the above example having removed the problem by adding additional adjustment layers and removing them again. Even if I now select just the adjustment mask I can still access ALL adjustment controls without problem.
But it will occur again as it has done over the last few months on a random basis. Hopefully someone else has seen this occur and found a solution?

How to fix numeric entry box in Curves adjustment layer?

In the Curves adjustment layer Properties box there are numeric entry boxes for changing input and output values. The first few times I experimented with changing the output values of a selected point in the R, G, & B channels, all went well. Now, although I believe I am using the same method, I can only access the input value box. The moment I click on the output value box both boxes black out and no entry is possible. I'm using the Windows version of Photoshop CC, so Tab doesn't work to get from the input to the output box. I have tried resetting the Preferences for Photoshop and that seemed to work once, briefly, but now that makes no difference.
I have fixed the problem with Adobe Customer Support Chat. The solution was to delete the Adobe Photoshop CC Settings folder. With Photoshop closed, open the Start menu and type %AppData% in the search bar (Windows 7); this takes you to the Roaming folder where you then navigate to the Adobe folder and the Adobe Photoshop CC folder. We removed the Adobe Phototshop CC Settings folder by dragging it to the desktop. Once it was established that this fixed the problem, the folder was deleted from the desktop.

Problem solved

I've noticed that a few times on windows 8 32 bit, photoshop cs6 32 bit with 4gb of ram, a nVidia 8400 gs graphics card and open gl seems to work fine.
I guess that's probably some kind of glitch.
One way to get back the dropdown is to click on the Curves Display Options in the flyout menu and then just click OK in the dialog.
Added: It doesn't seem to happen if the crop tool is set to Classic Mode.

Adjustment layer disappears

I've been dealing with this really frustrating issue, and I haven't been able to find a solution for this online yet that actually works. In Photoshop CS5.1 I have an image that I added a single hue/saturation layer to, and when I merge the layers, flatten the image, or try to save it as anything but a PSD file, the adjustment layer does not show up. The image just looks like it did before. Has anyone else had this issue? I'm really not sure what I'm doing wrong.

Here is a screenshot of a section at 100%:
In the hue/saturation layer, I colorized it with:
Hue: 175
Saturation: 25
Lightness: 0
It's an illustration and not a photo, so it is a little grainy I suppose, but I've done this effect to illustrations just like it, and it has worked.
It may or may not be helpful to note that when I first opened the image, the mode was set to Indexed Color and I changed it to RGB before working on it. I don't know if this is even relevant but if that's at all part of the problem, it's worth saying.
