Auto-Update Open Documents?

I am having a few problems with a recently installed version of Photoshop CS4.
Before posting, I installed the newest Aug 21 drivers for the built in NVIDIA GeForce 6200 SE Turbo Cache card running on a Windows XP machine.
Symptoms:
1: When opening a file for the first time, all "open" commands are grayed out in the File drop down menu. I can do a Control-O to open or Control-N to create a new document and after doing so, the menu items are available to me.
2: After applying an adjustment layer, such as a Curves adjustment layer, I can adjust the curve and the current image changes correctly. However, if I apply a gradient to the layer mask, it will not display the gradient in the gradient icon until I touch one of the S curve points. If I make a different gradient, I have the same issue.
3: If were to delete the adjustment layer by dragging it to the trash, the current image does not update and I have to click one time on the image to make it display correctly.
There may be other problems, but these are plenty to deal with right now.
I tried going to the preferences and turning off OpenGL and ended up with the same problems.
I tried checking Auto-Update Open Documents and got the same results whether it is on or off.
I am not sure what Auto-Update Open Documents does, but it sounds like the correct issue.
Any help would be appreciated. CS3 works fine on this system.

Hello Mylenium
You probably have the correct answer. I've run CS2 and CS3 on this system and it has done an okay job, though I know it is showing its age now. I have a Vista laptop and don't care for it that much, so I haven't been too excited to buy a new desktop with that operating system on it. And, of course, I hate to buy an expensive video card and power supply to run this XP machine.
With Windows 7 on the horizon, I may just use CS3 a while longer and see how the new system works before upgrading to a new computer. Either way, I have a $1500 software package here that isn't getting much use.

  • Update BP name in open documents - not in Deliveries

    Hi all,
    today I experimented the new function that lets you update open documents when a Business Partner name is changed. I did this in SBO 8.81 PL04. In OEC Computers, I picked a customer with the following open documents: 2 Deliveries, 2 POs and 6 Opportunities. I changed the BP name and said Yes when asked if I want to update open documents. The POs and Opportunities where all updated, but not the Deliveries.
    I was wondering why the Deliveries were not updated. I went across Note #1529237, which states that this function was corrected in 8.8 PL18. The note does not talk about Deliveries. Is it a bug or a feature ?
    Thanks

    Hi,
    Welcome you post on the forum.
    It is not a bug but a feature. Delivery will affect financial data. That is why you can not update.
    Thanks,

  • Since I updated my pages to 5.01, I can't open documents created on my iPad today. It says you need a new version of pages to open document.  (My computer says it is installed).  Has any one encountered this?

    Since I updated my pages to 5.01, I can't open documents created on my iPad today. It says you need a new version of pages to open document.  (My computer says it is installed).  Has any one encountered this?

    Well, here's what I found out that works for me...
    I had a Pages icon on my dock, and launching it brought up version 4.3.  But I went to my Apps folder and found the new updated icon there and when I launced that it brought up version 5.01.  So apparently the Apple update process left two versions launchable on my iMac.  Weird...

  • Firefox auto-updated to 3.6.9 last night and now it crashes every time I open the browser, even in safe mode.

    Firefox auto-updated to 3.6.9 last night and now it crashes every time I open the browser, even in safe mode.

    Hi there,
    You could try performing a clean installation: [[Knowledge Base Article]] :
    Some Firefox issues can be resolved by downloading a new Firefox installer from Mozilla.com, then closing Firefox, deleting the Firefox application folder (program files) and reinstalling Firefox. If this does not help, or if you would rather completely remove Firefox and start over instead of completing all the troubleshooting steps, follow these steps:
    1. Download the latest official version of Firefox from Mozilla.com.
    * You should avoid unofficial download sites that bundle Firefox with other software such as the Google Toolbar.
    2. If you wish to retain your current profile, you should make a backup copy of it. See Backing up your information for instructions.
    3. Uninstall Firefox and make sure you remove the Firefox application (program) folder and your Firefox personal data (user data and settings) - see Uninstalling Firefox for instructions.
    4. Reinstall Firefox - see Installing Firefox for instructions.
    5. When Firefox is started for the first time, the Import Wizard will appear and a new profile will be created.
    6. Verify that the issue no longer appears.
    7. If you made a backup of your old profile and wish to restore your old information, see Recovering important data from an old profile. For troubleshooting purposes, only copy the files corresponding to your bookmarks and saved passwords.
    8. Reinstall your extensions and themes one by one to determine if any specific one is causing the issue.

  • Auto update colors (from custom swatch library) in documents..

    Hi all,
    I searched the forums for all I could, but found no solution for this one...
    So here goes.
    Is there a way to use a 'user defined' swatch library to (auto)update colors in several artworks/files that use that specific swatch library.
    I know I could reload and 'merge' all the swatches from the library with the ones used in the file (with the same name).
    Select the one you want to keep and then the one you'd like to overwrite, merge!
    But here's what I tried and what I think should be possible..
    I have twelve files that all use colours from one 'user defined' swatch library ['Human'], so all twelve files have the same 'skin' colour where needed.
    Now I need the 'skin' colour (in alle twelve files) to be a shade darker...
    My idea was to open the swatch library 'Human' in Illustrator, change the swatch called 'skin' and save.... Presto! All twelve files using this 'skin'colour should now be one shade darker...
    But this doesn't seem to work...
    Swatches are set to 'global'..
    What am I missing or will this be in the 'features requests' part of these forums next?
    Oh and I'm working in:
    Illustrator CS5, windows 7, 64 bit
    Kind regards,
    Erik

    As far as I know color swatches are referenced from the file itself, they are not like a linked image that can update all files using it. So, with swatches you have to apply the change to each file. Probably should be possible to automate this with a script.

  • Acrobat X won't open .pdfs on websites following recent auto update

    I have Acrobat X Standard. It has worked properly for last 2 years. After receiving an auto update from Adobe last week, I can no longer open.pdf files on any website.  Everything seems to work fine if opening.pdf files that are on local drives.

    Hi allmanstudios,
    Please run the Disk repair permissions and check.
    You might also want to enable the root user account ( http://support.apple.com/kb/ht1528 )and then check the performance.
    Also make sure you have updated Acrobat to the latest patch i.e.v 10.1.8

  • Why does my iPad 1 not open documents in pages from my mac after downloading update on pages on mac?

    Why does my iPad 1 not open documents from my updated mac-pro laptop pages since i updated the mac. Have updated latest pages for iPad 1 it could and still not able to open docs as i could before update on mac-pro

    The most recent version of Pages that you can run on the iPad 1, running iOS 5.1.1, is not compaible with the newest version of pages on the Mac.
    If you had the old version of Pages on your Mac, and off hand I can't remember what version it was, you should still be able to use that version and then it will be compatible with the Pages app on the iPad. I updated to the newest version of Pages some time back but was able to keep the older version as well.

  • Linking word documents and auto-updating TOCs?

    Hi, all!
    I know InDesign a bit, but am about to embark on a project that I could use some help on. Im compiling all the different writing Ive done in the past four years into a little ebook. There are about 50 different essays/articles, each under four categories in the table of contents. Many need editing, and the ebook will require lots of moving things around and editing.
    So, is it possible to link Word documents like as you can do with images? I would like to have InDesign link to all the different word documents that comprise different essays, etc, so I can edit individual essays from Word and have them auto-update within InDesign. Also, is there a similar thing I can do with the table of contents, where it will automatically update the page number of a given entry when I rearrange it? These two things would save me much time!
    Thank you!
    Alec

    As much as you think you want to auto-update the Word documents, you don't.
    Yes, there is a way to link those Word files, but you will lose all formatting applied in ID each time you do update the linked files.
    Why don't you just make those changes in InDesign?
    Next, yes, you can create a TOC that will update page numbers automatically when the document(s) change.
    That is no problem.

  • MacBook Pro OSX 10.9.4 - can't open document in pages - message says need updated version and there aren't any

    MacBook Pro - OSX 10.9.4 - trying to open document in pages.  Message says can't open with this version - go to app store for update, but there aren't any updates.

    Hope apple can fix this soon if new patch 10.9.4 cause this.
    Apple cannot fix problems they did not create. Eset and Avast are capable of doing nothing beneficial and can only cause problems. Uninstall it and determine if the problems subside.
    Use Avast's uninstaller, which will remove it completely. Eset requires using the uninstaller included with its downloaded installation program (see screenshot):
    Eset will also require manual techniques to uninstall components its uninstaller leaves behind, a common characteristic of poorly written software.
    I am now can access an internet, with zero security.
    It's a common misconception that you have "zero security" without junk such as Eset or Avast. OS X already includes robust protections against viruses and malware. Use your Mac the way it was intended to be used - without burdening it with useless garbage.

  • Pages is updating my documents and I can't open them anymore... Any suggestions to fix the problem?

    The app is updating 97 documents, I can't open them and it's been updating for more than 2 hours. I really need these documents, how can I fix the problem?

    Click on the '''Tools''' menu in '''Firefox''' and then click on '''Downloads'''.
    This will bring up the "Downloads" window.
    It should list all of your downloads. You can open each download by double-clicking on it.
    If you still can't open the downloads by double-clicking, try the following:
    In Firefox, click on '''Tools''' and then '''Options'''
    Click the '''General''' tab to find out where your Downloads are going to. It should be listed in the '''Downloads''' section. You might need to click on the '''Browse''' button to find out exactly where they are going.
    Once you know where the downloads are going to, you can go directly to that location and open them from there.
    Hope this helps.

  • Firefow auto updated "5 beta", lost all previous tabs, "unresponsive script" opens w/each new window...Can you help?

    Fred,
    Thanks so much for the reply. Amy way you could elaborate on the "known issue" aspect? Is there another thread I missed? Some sort of Knowledge base article? also, I'm not sure why you linked to the page you did. FF is installed on all my machines and I can of course download the latest version every couple of weeks and push it to all my lab iMacs using ARD, so I'm confused as to why you linnked me to FF's installer page - is there something I can do with the installer that will alow auto-updates that I'm missing/not aware of?
    Again, thanks for the heads-up and any further elaboration on either further info on the issue or how I might use the installer to auto-update all my machines will be appreciated.

  • Macbook 2.2ghz Leopard wont auto update (says it cant connect to internet??) also safari and chrome take ages to open and frequently crash. Help!

    Here goes...
    1) I have a Macbook 2.2ghz (early 2008) running Leopard 10.5.8 which wont auto update (says it cant connect to internet even though it is - error says A networking error has occurred: timed out (-1001). Make sure you can connect to the Internet, then try again.) Network diagnostcs says that im connected to the intermet.
    2) Also safari and chrome take ages to load pages when every time I open them (around 45 seconds) and then when they are running safari will randomly close and chrome will come up with the aw snap message for random pages (doesnt matter if its trying to loas flash or not).
    Iv got Sophos anti virus which is saying theres no malware or viruses, also tried restartiing, re downloading chrome, deleteing my profile from chrome, exporting, deleting and then importing bookmarks and hardwiring the latop to the router. None of these fixed the issues.
    Never had these issues and they are really getting on my nerves! Any help would be appreciated.

    Thanks but just tried and does nothing, i read somewhere it could be to do with proxy settings? even though though i havnt changed them?? couldnt work out how to do it on a mac, could this be the problem?
