Background turns blue when opening new file or exiting file.

Hello,
I am working in Photoshop cs6 on a PC, Windows 7.  I was working on my Wacom tablet and accidentally dropped my pen tool on the tablet.  When I looked up, my background was blue.  I'm not sure what happened, but I can't figure out how to change it back to white.  It must have changed something, just don't know what.  This happens if I open a "new page" or if I open an exiting file.  I checked preferences, it all seems ok there. 
Photoshop open normally as seen below.  Second photo show what it looks like when opening a new screen or an existing file.  Any help would be appreciated.
Thanks

There's a preference to change the color of the screen.  I'm not at a computer right now that has PS, but you might want to try right clicking with the move tool and see is there is a menu option for changing the color.  Or check the main preferences ctrl/cmd-k.

  • The little rainbow wheel turned blue when opening messages on my Yahoo account

    I was told it was something to do with the Cache files.  I deleted them and the little wheel is still blue. It should be a rainbow colour I thought.
    Any suggestions?

    Hi Beverley,
    Could be many things, we should start with this...
    "Try Disk Utility
    1. Insert the Mac OS X Install disc, then restart the computer while holding the C key.
    2. When your computer finishes starting up from the disc, choose Disk Utility from the Installer menu at top of the screen. (In Mac OS X 10.4 or later, you must select your language first.)
    *Important: Do not click Continue in the first screen of the Installer. If you do, you must restart from the disc again to access Disk Utility.*
    3. Click the First Aid tab.
    4. Select your Mac OS X volume.
    5. Click Repair Disk, (not Repair Permissions). Disk Utility checks and repairs the disk."
    http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=106214
    Then try a Safe Boot, (holding Shift key down at bootup), run Disk Utility in Applications>Utilities, then highlight your drive, click on Repair Permissions, reboot when it completes.
    (Safe boot may stay on the gray radian for a long time, let it go, it's trying to repair the Hard Drive.)
    If perchance you can't find your install Disc, at least try it from the Safe Boot part onward.
    Open Console in Utilities & see if there are any clues or repeating messages when this happens.

  • How can I turn off Recently Websites when opening new Safari window? After tapping on the two overlapping boxes on the bottom right of Safari, a new blank window appears with Favorites, but now in iOS 8, recently viewed websites are listed.

    How can I turn off Recently Visited Websites when opening new Safari window?
    After tapping on the two overlapping boxes on the bottom right of Safari, a new blank window appears with Favorites, but now in iOS 8, recently viewed websites are listed. How can I turn this function off? I do NOT want my new Safari windows to have history displayed of previous websites I visited. I only want my Favorites (on the top) to be displayed. Please help.
    Thank you for your time, patience, understanding, kindness, and concern.

    Thanks for replying, but that isn't the answer I am looking for.  Also, there is no + sign, UNLESS you do tap the overlapping boxes.
    Let me try to ask my question a little more clearly:
    When I tap the two overlapping boxes on the lower left (the option to Open New Windows), the new Window that appears will show your Bookmarked FAVORITES. But with my new iPhone 6, and the new iOS 8.0.2, when I tap the two boxes to open a New Window, my Bookmark Favorites show (as they always have and should), but below them, there is a dividing line underneath them, and it says Recently Viewed Websites, and has these websites available to tap.
    So my question is, HOW DO I TURN THESE OPTION OFF?
    *UPDATE  (10.13.14): Since I have asked this question, I no longer see these Recently Viewed Websites under my Bookmarked Favorites in my new Window tabs. So I hope that Apple fixed it, or somehow it was a mistake, or somehow I changed an Option on my iPhone 6 that stopped this for reoccurring.
    Thank you for your help bobseufert! I appreciate your concern, kindness, and the time to try to help. I am grateful.
    Have a blessed day.

  • Fading background when opening new window

    Fading background when opening new window. I would like to do a "lightbox" effect that on mouseclick opens a new window over the top of the other windows(s) that has a close button to take the user back to the previous page. I have viewed this in the past, but now cannot find examples. If you have URLS of examples, or better yet, code to make this happen, that would be helpful. Thoughts and opinions on why I shouldn't use this effect are also welcome!

    If you need a lightbox effect, use one the freely available "lightbox" or modal window scripts.
    Fancy Box is well documented and works with images, text, iframes, Google Maps, media, etc..

  • Background not rendering when opened in Acrobat 9.4.7 but fine in Reader 9.3.4

    The PDF in question was created using InDesign CS5 7.0 and the properties of the file identify the following additions
    PDF Library 9.9
    PDV V1.5 Acrobat 6.x
    and Fast Web View is Enabled
    The background colour looks to have been added as a layer during the creation of the PDF. When the PDF is opened in Reader, the background displays fine, when opened in Acrobat, the background is not present. The thumbnail in explorer also shows the PDF with the correct background.
    Is this a configuration problem at my end with Acrobat?
    Any help is very much appreciated!

    Is there an outside chance that you do not have view large images turned on? OK, I am taking a stab in the dark, but it is a potential thing to check.

    Hi rllenovo,
    please don't forget that this is a peer to peer forum, provided by Lenovo in order that members may seek assistance from others and share their experiences. There is a Lenovo presence here but unfortunately they are not able to address every issue and therefore there is no guarantee you will receive a direct response.
    It is possible that no other members are experiencing, or have experienced the same as you, or if they have, haven't been online since you posted. Sometimes in forums you need to bring a little patience with you. Alternatively you have the option of contacting Lenovo support.
    It maybe that because you chose a user name with Lenovo in it that other members think you work for, or are associated with Lenovo and maybe felt that other channels of assistance would be available to you and hence offered no comment???

    You are posting in the "icloud on my mac" forum, but your profile mentions Windows.  If using a mac, you need to have iphoto or aperture installed in order to receive new photos via photo stream.  If using windows, try posting in the iCloud on a PC forum.  You'll get better help there.

  • Is there a way to prevent an image from turning blue when selecting it?

    I'm exported a pdf from InDesign that will be used as a brochure for one of the exhibitions at our museum. I'm wondering if there's any way to prevent an image from turning blue when a reader clicks on it. Since all of the images are works of art, I'd rather that they not change color when people click on them.
    I changed the security settings so the images couldn't be copies, hoping that would prevent the blue square, but it didn't help.
    thanks for any suggestions.
    Chris

    There are several ways to do that and here are but two of them.
    1. If you want to make a new image you can right click on the channel, click on Duplicate Channel and under Destination>Document, select New
    2. If you want to add a new layer to your document, click on the channel in the channels panel, go to Select>All, then Edit>Copy, click on RGB in the channels panel and then Edit>Paste

  • Problem creating playlists library window closes when opening new playlist

    library window closes when opening new playlist impossible to drag and drop songs from lib to new playlist

    Hi
    You don't need to open a playlist to drag and drop from your library. Just open the library and drag the selected item or items to the NAME of the chosen playlist (in blue bars on the lower left) and just drop it there. When you hold the items over the playlist name, it will show you a little green dot with a plus sign in it and the number or items being dropped. Then when you are done dragging and dropping you can open the playlist and see that the items were added. Hope this makes sense.
    Good luck!

  • Firefox freezes when opening an adobe acrobat (PDF) file from any website

    Firefox freezes when opening an adobe acrobat (PDF) file from any website. This only started happening after the latest update of Firefox was installed. Do you have a fix?

    Hi Susan,
    The Adobe plugin in Internet Explorer is a bit different from the one in Firefox, however they're all made by Adobe and they usually come with Adobe Reader.
    When you open a PDF file in Firefox, it "calls" Adobe Reader to help it read the file. In this case, the Adobe Reader takes over, and it is responsible for freezing your browser.
    I suggest you try the last 4 solutions presented on the [[Opening PDF files within Firefox]] (start with "Re-install the plugin" through "Re-install Adobe Reader").
    Good Luck :D

  • How to stop newtab-page flickering/refreshing when opening new tabs by ctrl-clicking thumbnails?

    Often when opening new tabs from thumbnails in newtab-page (about:newtab) the whole newtab-page refreshes itself or otherwise flickers. This sometimes causes that some new tabs are not opened when ctrl-clicking multiple thumbnails in a row. Does the newtab-page recalculate after every click what thumbnails it should show and this could cause the flickering effect? (Although I don't see changes in thumbnail order.)

    Hi FFanatic,
    Please update to version 32 to see if this is still happening. Go to About Firefox and click the update button.

  • Drummer region starts with fill on 1 bar when open new project.

    Drummer region starts with fill on 1 bar when open new project
    and if I copy a region, say 10 times, they all starts with a fill.
    So my work around is to delete the automatic generated regions
    and make new ones. If I need to copy many regions I copy one
    at a time. Using latest LX.
    Anyone experienced this? Do I miss something in the process?

    Try the Firefox SafeMode to see how it works there. <br />
    ''A troubleshooting mode, which disables most Add-ons.'' <br />
    ''(If you're not using it, switch to the Default Theme.)''
    * You can open the Firefox 4.0+ SafeMode by holding the '''Shft''' key when you use the Firefox desktop or Start menu shortcut.
    * Or use the Help menu item, click on '''Restart with Add-ons Disabled...''' while Firefox is running. <br />
    ''Don't select anything right now, just use "Continue in SafeMode."''
    ''To exit the Firefox Safe Mode, just close Firefox and wait a few seconds before using the Firefox shortcut (without the Shft key) to open it again.''
    '''''If it is good in the Firefox SafeMode''''', your problem is probably caused by an extension, and you need to figure out which one. <br />

  • I've read a lot of comments/suggestions about camera issues that it turns black when opening the phone camera but nothing is worked for me. I'm so frustrate on my iPhone 5s im using it like for a month, I thought its more better than Samsung but I failed.

    I've read a lot of comments/suggestions about camera issues that it turns black when opening the phone camera but nothing is worked for me. I'm so frustrate on my iPhone 5s im using it like for a month, I thought its more better than Samsung but I failed. Please help!!! I hope apple has something to do about this. Thanks.

    I would have had the phone looked at long before a month of problems.
    First thing to try is to reset your device. Press and hold the Home and Sleep buttons simultaneously until the Apple logo appears. Let go of the buttons and let the device restart. See if that fixes your problem.
    If that doesn't help Make an appointment at an Apple Store to have your device examined by a technician. Or contact Apple Support. You phone is under warranty and someone at an Apple store can help you.

  • Why does Firefox get hung up, when opening new pages? I've tried disabling plugins and extensions to no avail.

    Initially, when I open Firefox everything opens very quickly. However, after several minutes it gets hung up when opening new pages. I have close the browser and reopen it to start over. But each time it does the same thing. Works well at first then poops out. The trouble started yesterday. Before then, I never had any problems.
    I've tried disabling all the plugins and extensions, but it doesn't make any difference.

  • Safari window turns white when opening a new tab

    Hi,
    I noticed yesterday that when I launch Safari, and cmd click to open a new tab, the Safari window turns white for a second or two before coming back to life. This is an intermittent issue, I have only had it two or three times so far and it doesn't always happen.
    Its kind of similar to when opening too many windows in MS and the GPU struggles to render the windows...
    The only programs I have running at the time are Mail, VirusBarrier Traffic Monitor and, of course, Safari.
    Has anyone else had a similar problem or know a solution???

    HI,
    Uninstall VirusBarrier! See the post by: "Kappy" here.
    http://discussions.apple.com/thread.jspa?threadID=1796916
    There are no Mac viruses.
    Traffic Monitor may also be causing the problem. Anytime you have A/V software and 3rd party add-ons, your Mac is more vulnerable to performance issues.
