Blur Tool in CS4 not working

Blue Tool is not working in CS4 have no idea why.
Maybe there is a setting that needs clearing? How to fix?

It's a complex program.  Take some time to learn it.  The tools do very specific things, but they are just that - tools.  You need to learn how to use them well for the program to deliver its value.  Photoshop is not a program you can learn to use overnight.
Making a selection then doing a gaussian blur does not blur the entire image.  Read what's written carefully, and if you don't understand something, look it up or ask here about it.  Someone will probably give step by step instructions:
For example:
1.  Activate the Polygonal Lasso tool in the Tools panel.
2.  Set the Feather amount to a small value (0 or a few pixels) at the top of the Photoshop main window.
3.  Click points all around what you want to blur.
4.  Double click or return to the origin point to close the selection.
5.  Choose Filter - Blur - Gaussian Blur, and dial in the amount of blur you want.
Back to your original post - if you are not seeing screen updates with the Blur tool, it's possible your display driver is failing and you need to update it from the web site of the maker of your display card.

  • Dreamweaver CS4 not working under MacOS 10.9

    on starting DW CS4 it asks for Java Runtime engine 6, but Mavericks has Java v.7 installed. Since Java 6 was part of the OS of previous systems, I cannot install it seperately, besides it would probably cause conflicts with OS 10.9. Do I have to trash my DW, or is there a workaround.
    Thanx

    If I follow click the instal button on
    I get the progress bar for about 1 sec and then the message about a supposed
    network problem
    which is unreal, since my network works perfectly for any other task and I
    had even tried disabling the firewall and little snitch. Things are still

  • Type to selection tool quick command not working in InDesign CC

    When I have the type tool selected in InDesign and hold command for the selection tool, it's not working. When I hold the command button it highlights the selection tool, but as soon as I click my mouse, it reverts back to the type tool. Also, when I change the size of my text box it does not resize the text in the box, even if I hold for a a few sec before moving the cursor.

    @Cindy – usually all 3rd party developers will provide some information for installing and uninstalling their products. First see if you can find some information on their web sites.
    Also there should be a dedicated Adobe Extension Manager app where you can look up the installed parts of InDesign. Since I do not have InDesign CC installed, I do not know exactly, but its name should be something like "Adobe Extension Manager CC".
    If you start this app it will show all parts installed with InDesign (or other apps that are installed).
    Usually at the bottom of the list are the 3rd party installed components. They do not state "Adobe Incoroprate System" as author. Never uninstall (remove) the Adobe ones!
    Here a screen grab from my German Adobe Extension Manager CS5:
    If you select one, a new option is available at the right. In my case here the "Entfernen" button ("Remove" in English).

  • Spry tool tip does not work in template or child pages within an editable region. Why not?

    Ok. so I am getting pretty frustrated. I take the time to learn how to use CSS and to create a template page for a Contractor Site (www.ContractorInsurance.net). The idea is to create a page that I can use for different classes of Contractors...right?
    Then I get all happy about being able to insert ToolTip onto pages to help the user. Great!
    LIfe to turn to Sorrow after nearly five hours of searching for a "eeking" answer.
    So what good does it do to have an Editable region to update if we cannot have the flexibility to insert a tool tip on child pages?  Ok so the fast solution is to what... Have a question mark image, insert another apDiv, name it toolTip_Not and provide it with a show=hide behavior?
    RRRRRrrr...
    This really sucks not being able to find a solution within a reasonable amount of time.

    I have tried thank you. However...it is still not working.

    If you have a look at the following simple document with a tooltipTooltip trigger goes here.
    Tooltip content goes here.
    you will notice that a couple of lines have been placed in the HEAD section of the document. When using DW templates, the HEAD section is usually not editable, hence the error mesaage. By default, your template should have an editable region in it just before the closing tag. It looks like this: <!-- TemplateBeginEditable name="head" > <! TemplateEndEditable --> Dreamweaver should be able to find that editable region and insert the
    <script> tag there automatically. Because you don't have an editable region like that in the <head>, open the master template, and paste the code above just before the closing </head>
    tag. Gramps

  • Tool Bar is not working

    I upgraded my browser. I used Mozilla firefox. Ever since then my tool bar does not work. say if I wanted to go to www.facebook.com. I type in the web address and it will not even go to the site, or the drop down menu

    If you are successfully running Firefox in Safe Mode, this might be an indication that you have too many, or simply have any out of date, Add-ons which creates a too much of a workload for your system.
    You can find out which version of Firefox you are running by choosing About Firefox from the Help entry in the Menu Bar.

  • If you check the don't show this again box when closing multiple tabs, how do you get it to warn you when closing multiple tabs, or to save previous tabs? Checking the warn me when closing multiple tabs box under tools/tabs does not work to solve this?

    I accidentally checked the do not ask me again box when closing multiple tabs. Now I no longer get a warning when closing multiple tabs, and it saves my previous session. I have tried checking and un-checking the warn me box under tools which has not worked. If I open a second window and try to close multiple tabs it will warn me but not on the first window.

    You can reset the warn prefs on the about:config page via the right-click context menu.
    browser.tabs.warnOnClose , see http://kb.mozillazine.org/About%3Aconfig_entries
    browser.warnOnQuit , see http://kb.mozillazine.org/browser.warnOnQuit
    browser.warnOnRestart , see http://kb.mozillazine.org/browser.warnOnRestart
    To open the <i>about:config</i> page, type <b>about:config</b> in the location (address) bar and press the "<i>Enter</i>" key, just like you type the url of a website to open a website.<br />
    If you see a warning then you can confirm that you want to access that page.<br />

  • My big fish and Norton tool bar will not work with fire fox 4

    My Big Fish Tool Bar and my Norton Tool Bar will not work with firefox4. However they work fine on internet explorer

    Symantec need to update their Firefox add-ons so that they are compatible with Firefox 4. They have indicated that for Norton 360 they plan to release an update to Norton 360 to support Firefox 4 in early May - http://us.norton.com/support/kb/web_view.jsp?wv_type=public_web&docurl=20100720113635EN&ln=en_US
    I do not know about the time scale for updates for other Norton products. Pending the update by Symantec, if you want to use the Norton add-ons you will need to downgrade to Firefox 3.6.
    To downgrade to Firefox 3.6 first uninstall Firefox 4, but do not select the option to "Remove my Firefox personal data". If you select that option it will delete your bookmarks, passwords and other user data.
    You can then install the latest version of Firefox 3.6 available from http://www.mozilla.com/en-US/firefox/all-older.html - it will automatically use your current bookmarks, passwords etc.
    To avoid possible problems with downgrading, I recommend going to your profile folder and deleting the following files if they exist - extensions.cache, extensions.rdf, extensions.ini, extensions.sqlite and localstore.rdf. Deleting these files will force Firefox to rebuild the list of installed extensions, checking their compatibility, and reset toolbar customizations.
    For details of how to find your profile folder see https://support.mozilla.com/kb/Profiles

  • TOOL TIP is not working!!

    Hello
    (1)Now i can see the Caption of a object/field as TOOL TIP, fine.
    (2)After i am binding with the associated data source field, I also got the populated value of that object/field as tool tip, fine.
    I mean, not 2 tool tips, at the same second, either (1) ir (2), fine.
    But, both are working for ONLY editable fields, tool tip is not working for "readOnly" fields (i colored these fields with GREY color)!!
    Pls. let me know How can i get a tool tip for all KIND of fields, like, Greyedout fields, "readOnly" fields....all
    Thank you

    You could create an invisible field with the tooltip text you desire, send it to the back, and then on mouseenter of the field you want the tooltip for you just make the tooltip field visible and then make it invisible again on mouseexit.
    on mouseenter:
    this.presence = "visible";
    on mouseexit:
    this.presence = "invisible";
    I've used this method in the past to pop up half page instruction sets.

  • Javascript that worked in CS4 not working in CC

    I wrote a Javascript tool that creates perspective grids in Photoshop a while ago.  It works fine in Photoshop CS4.  However, I've been getting a few emails complaining that it does not work in CC.  I've checked the CC release of the Javascript in Photoshop reference guide, but it appears that nothing has changed relevant to my code since CS4.  Any idea what's happening in PS that is causing this script to fail?
    http://kitfox.com/projects/photoshopPersp/Perspective%20Grids.jsx
    Full webpage:
    http://kitfox.com/projects/photoshopPersp/index.html

    I've changed the script.  I now create my path layer using the below function.  However, even after explicitly changing the ruler units to PIXELS, the paths I create all seem to be measured in POINTS.  Even if the original ruler unit is PIXELS this still happens.  Is there any way around this (that is backwards compatable)?
    function createPathLayer(title, subPathArray)
        var docRef = app.activeDocument;
        var originalUnit = app.preferences.rulerUnits;
        alert("Orig units " + originalUnit);
        app.preferences.rulerUnits = Units.PIXELS;
        var myPathItem = docRef.pathItems.add(title, subPathArray);
        alert("New units " + Units.PIXELS);
        app.preferences.rulerUnits = originalUnit;

  • HP Protect tool password manager not working with the new version of Mozilla: I got this alert: "Firefox doesn't know how to open this address, because the protocol (dpql) isn't associated with any program." please help

    I have an HP ProBook 4520s. I have been using HP Protect tool's Password manager to store and manage my passords for all Login websites in Firefox 3.6. As a result, I just swiped my fingerprint to log on to any website.
    After I installed the version 4 of Firefox, my all my login details do not work anymore. I have tried to reset them but I repeatedly get this error: "Firefox doesn't know how to open this address, because the protocol (dpql) isn't associated with any program."
    something like this would have been passed onto the address: "dpql://c:\program%20files%20(x86)\hewlett-packard\hp%20protecttools%20security%20manager\bin\dpminionlineids.dll/qlinkload.htm#id=2".
    Although the password manager works with Internet Explorer 9, I need it to work with Firefox 4 as this is my preferred browser.
    Please help. Thank you!

    I guess this means that IE is more user friendly for HP Password Manager finger swipe recall of passwords, a favorite of mine. I still don't see a post from Firefox as to why they haven't produced fix. So I'll switch to IE until things change. I don't see value in downgrading to a Firefox version that's no longer going to be supported.

  • Tools photoshop menu not working

    Did you have to uninstall everything and reinstall 2014? CC 2014 was installed automatically. My program files show Ps CC and Ps CC 2014. The automatic installation of 2014 is what caused the problem.

  • Edit in adobe photoshop cs4 not working

    Hi there!
    I have Lightroom 2.3 & Adobe Photoshop CS4 installed.
    The "edit in adobe photoshop cs4" function is not working for my RAW files (DNG). When I select "edit in adobe photoshop cs4", Photoshop is started up, but it doesn't load anything. It is working for other formats like JPG/TIF/PSD, as an -EDIT version though.
    Anyone any idea? Thanks in advance!

    Normally, when this happens it's because the version of Camera Raw installed with Photoshop doesn't support your camera. You haven't mentioned which camera you are using, but it's probably worthwhile downloading the latest version of Camera Raw (currently 5.3, but there's a release candidate of 5.4 available from http://labs.adobe.com/wiki/index.php/Camera_Raw_5.4

  • Photo Edit in CS4 not working

    Hello,
    THE SETUP
    I have LR 3.3 and PS CS 4 Version 11.0.2 on a Mac running OS X.6.7.
    My "About Lightroom" screen reports the presence of Camera Raw 6.3.
    In my LR preferences under "External Editing" tab, I have the option to "Edit in Adobe Photoshop CS4" as PSD / sRGB / 16 bit / rez 300. There is no "Additional External Editor" present.
    I have installed in Library/Application Support/Adobe/Plug-Ins/CS4/File Formats the Camera Raw Plug-in version 5.7. When I choose Photoshop>About Plugin>Camera Raw I see that CR version 5.7.0.213 is present.
    THE PROBLEM
    When I select photo(s) [CR2 file(s)] in LR3 and choose Photo>Edit in> none of the external edit-in-Photoshop options work. First, I get a message saying "This version of Lightroom may require the Photoshop Camera Raw plug-in version 6.3 for full compatibility."
    I resent this suggestion, since that version of Camera Raw only works with CS5.
    When I click "Open Anyway," PS opens and loads, but that's it. None of the images from LR appear.
    I get the same (non)-results with all of the options (edit in CS4, HDR, panorama, smart object, etc.) under "Photo>Edit In." Photoshop launches, but no image appears.
    The only way I can get a photo to open in PS from within LR is to choose Photo>Edit in>Edit in Adobe Photoshop CS4, and then when the warning dialog comes up about the Camera Raw plug-in version, click "Render in Lightroom." When I do that, LR renders the image and it opens in CS4. But that doesn't help me do what I really want to do, which is to select bracketed exposures in LR, merge them to HDR in CS4, and save them back to LR.
    I have searched for help on this and come up dry. I did find this http://www.lightroomforums.net/showthread.php?9974-Open-as-layers-in-Photoshop-command-not -working, but I reinstalled the CR 5.7 plug-in as described and saw no change.
    Any suggestions appreciated. Thanks in advance.
    Message was edited by: GeorgTrakl

    Lr 3.3 and CS4 are not fully compatible so your experience is the result of that.
    You will have to bite the bullet and upgrade to CS5 if you dont want to "Render in LR".
    I've worked for quite a while with LR 3 and CS3 and experienced similar problems - the only way out is that you select "Render in LR".
    It's not such a big deal. When you select "Render in LR", Lr creates the psd that then opens in CS4.
    With CS5 it works this way: The RAW file opens in CS5 but when you save in CS5 a psd is generated.
