Camera Raw (8.7.1) is lagging, adjustment brush esp erratic, running on a Macbook Pro (Yosemite 10.10.1) Please help it's driving me nuts!

Hi, Camera Raw keeps stalling / freezing and then doing erratic catch up.  It's driving me mad and has made production levels practically zero.  Please help!

In a nutshell:  Yosemite is a work in progress and full of bugs.  Apple doesn't get a major release right until the dot five update or so.  Yosemite has a long way to go till it gets to OS X 10.10.5.
Many users have been advised to downgrade to Mavericks.

  • In Camera raw setting of CS6, using the adjustment brush, the new, add or erase buttons do not work. Please advise.

    In Camera raw setting of CS6, using the adjustment brush, the new, add or erase buttons do not work. Please advise.

    What operating system are you using?
    Which version of camera raw do you have in photoshop cs6?
    After you select the Adjustment Brush, the New button should already be enabled.
    Then after you draw on an area of the image, the Add button should be enabled, with the option to choose either of the other two buttons; New or Erase
    Could you post a screenshot?
    Maybe all the adjustment values are set to zero?
    (at least one needs to have a value other than zero)

    machine specs, such as total installed RAM, scratch file HDs, total available HD space, video card specs, including total VRAM installed,
    what troubleshooting steps you have taken so far,
    what error message(s) you receive,
    if having issues opening raw files also the exact camera make and model that generated them,
    if you're having printing issues, indicate the exact make and model of your printer, paper size, image dimensions in pixels (so many pixels wide by so many pixels high). if going through a RIP, specify that too.
    A screen shot of your settings or of the image could be very helpful too,
    etc.,

  • My understanding was that Elements shipped with Camera Raw 6.6 which included the Adjustment Brush

    I have bought Elements 10 and updated the Camera Raw to 6.6 but the Adjustment Brush & Graduated Filter do not appear in the Toolbar of the Workspace.

    Restore the phone as a new device. There is probably something that was corrupted on your phone during the update and has been passed via the backup to the replacement phone.  If the corruption/problem is contained in the backup, you'll need to re-sync your data, and re-install your apps manually. Restoring the backup again will only bring the problem back with it.
    If restoring it as new does not fix it, then make an appointment at the genius bar.

  • CS4 raw editing, global adjustments versus useing "Adjustment Brush"

    I had made a post earlier about CS4's raw editor hanging when working on .cr2 files ( canon). It seems that the raw editor works fine when makeing global adjustments, but when using the adjustment brush to make selective adjustments the program hangs for extended times. A global brightness adjustment will go thru in a couple of seconds at most, where as a photo with a few selective adjustments made to it will hang for as long as 5 minutes or more. Moving the image around is fluid when dealing with a image that does not have selective adjustments, and hangs when dealing with an image that has selective adjustments. The program seems set up to make selective adjustments ( it does have a selective adjustment brush after all ) but useing that option seems to cause such massive problems that it is un usable. The raw editor seems to use 50 to 100% of the proccesor during the hang time, and there is no disk activity which leads me to believe that there is not a problem with not haveing enough ram.
      I would appreciate any help that can be given with this problem

    First off let me say thank you for your responce.  But if what I have been doing is
    selective tone adjustments, not HDR
    That doesn't change the fact it would be a feature that can enhance the image process none the less.
    But not all the images I process are single shot images... I actually take time to scout a spot. Then I take about 3-4 shots at different exposures. Go into Camera Raw and and make different versions(snapshots) of those images.  Then create a document for each of those (snapshots) Then I open in a HDR program... NOW Photoshop HDR... and process them. The effect is different than the normal way of converting images into HDR... I think even more precise, or at least in my opinion.  So creating a feature like this will give the user the ability to streamline the workflow.
    So much of what you described doesn't belong in the HDR plugin, but is already available as tools in ACR or Photoshop itself.
    But what about the HDR adjustment brush tool I suggested?  That really sounds like a good possibility that people would like to utilize when creating HDR images.

  • PS5: In Raw mode not allowed to create Adjustment Brush adjustments

    I get the following message when I try to use the Adjustment Brush:
    Unable to create local adjustment. All the local adjustment controls are
    set to have no effect on the image.
    How do turn on the local adjustment controls?

    That usually means all your adjustment sliders are set to 0 (zero)
    Set one of the adjustment sliders to something other than zero, then try the Adjustment Brush and see if that makes a difference.

  • No images will import from my camera card into Lightroom 3.  Shooting with a Nikon D700 and using a MacBook Pro.  Used to work perfectly

    Any thoughts?  I can use Camera Raw, but miss LR.

    The D700 requires at least Lightroom 4.6. I believe you are mistaken if you thought you could import them into Lightroom 3 because it never included support for that camera.

  • How can I adjust the contrast of video on my MacBook Pro Retina so they don't look like they were filmed with an old sock over the lens?

    I'd like to watch movies and TV shows, downloaded from iTunes or Amazon, on my MacBook Pro Retina, but they all look like they were filmed with an old sock over the lens. Daytime sequences look muddy, and night time sequences are incomprehensible with anything but the brightest objects rendered as black. I can watch the same files on my old MacBook Air and everything looks right, but no manner of tweaking seems to let me watch movies on my new machine.
    I've tried adjusting the gamma. It's a bit better when gammas is set to 1.0, but I can't seem to set a gamma less than one. I tried using the Accessibility Contrast control, but it just lowers the contrast, swallowing my desktop into the dark abyss. I tried Applecare, but they don't have a clue. I tried the Apple Store. The "genius" confirmed that it is indeed impossible to watch movies shot anywhere but in the brightest sunlight on a MacBook Pro Retina, and it isn't just my machine, but every similar model in the store. He arranged for someone who really understands color profiles to give me a call, but Apple seems to have dropped the ball on this.
    Is there some tool for stretching out the darker grays in Apple video? I don't want calibration. My impression is that my display, like the dozens I checked at the Apple Store are calibrated to make all dimmer grays appear completely black. I want uncalibration so I can actually see what is going on in the movies even if something is in a light shadow or shot at night. Hollywood has lots of trained technicians who can light and shoot night scenes that are quite comprehensible. I've watched a number of such scenes on my old MacBook Air. Now, I'd like to enjoy their artistry on my MacBook Pro Retina.

    http://www.ifixit.com/ has directions for do it yourself.  Also look at PRAM battery instructions, as sometimes this can fix optical drive issues.
    You can get external or internal drives from http://www.macsales.com/
    I also suggest in the future, take care of this problem while it is still under warranty. It may have cost you nothing.

  • How do I adjust the display and sound with my Macbook Pro connected to my Sony Bravia?

    I just bought the DVI - HDMI and then connected my Mac to my 46" Sony Bravia.  It works obviously cause I'm typing right now, but it is so painful to try and read anything less than what appears to be 14 font or so.  The display is set at 1080p obviously because that's the whole point of this, but is there a way to try and make things bigger?  I don't want to sit super close to the TV and fry my eyeballs, that also defeats the purpose of this.  Another question regarding sound.  It seems I can only adjust the sound from my keyboard, but I would rather do it through my TV's volume control so I can make things louder.  Any help would be awesome.  Thanks.

    Thanks for the reply.  My dumbself forgot that right next to my new TV is my old TV, a 40" Samsung LCD.  Now I put it on my desk and I have it in 1080p and everything is going good except for the fact that I can't see the top bar on my desktop and now the sound seems to be coming exclusively from my Mac instead of my TV, although I still have it hooked up with an HDMI cable.  Any new thoughts?
    EDIT:  Ok fixed the display issue, but I'm still getting sound out of my Mac.  Really confused on what to do.  I don't see why I could get audio out of my Sony TV with an HDMI cable but not my Samsung.  Doesn't the same principle apply?  Xbox and PS3 work that way, so pretty confused unless I need to get a digital audio cable or something.

    If everything else is the same, that is strange. I have seen a post or two that reported only certain HDMI ports working with computer input, so if the Sammy has another HDMI input, give that a try.

  • IPhone 4S Problem - When I enter Camera Mode, feint purple lines begin converging into my photo and LED won't turn on, only during videos! Please Help?

    Hello Guys,
    I am in need of dire assistance! Bought a new iPhone 4S 64GB Black through my Carrier, Optus in Australia.
    Everything seems to be working perfectly, besides my camera. When i enter it, a feint purple begins to appear with my photos, and the LED flashlight wont appear when i take photos with front camera, it will only turn on when i activate an LED flashlight app and when i turn on flash when i record videos!
    Does anyone else have this issue? If so, can someone tell me if its a hardware issue and needs to be replaced, or it can be updated and fixed with a software update?
    Thank You!

    I believe your only option is making an appointment at an Apple store if there is one nearby where it can be determined if your iPhone can be restored with iTunes there.
    If not, more than likely there is a hardware problem with no way to know what the problem is without being diagnostically tested.
    Apple doesn't offer a menu of repair services for the iPhone except for replacing the battery for an iPhone that is no longer under warranty. Apple offers an out of warranty or not covered under the warranty "repair" price, which pays for an exchange at a discounted price off the full retail sales price ($199 plus tax) which doesn't require signing a new two year contract with AT&T.

  • Expose animation lag & Dashboard ripple gone after 10.6 on Macbook Pro '08

    I upgraded a Macbook Pro 2008 model (MacBookPro4,1) to OS X 10.6.2 (Snow Leopard), and various animation effects across the OS started having issues.
    1.) Expose animation of windows coming into place is now laggy.
    2.) Dashboard's water ripple effect is gone when adding widgets. Just the widget window zooms in and out in a couple bounces.
    3.) But other animations like the dock Genie effect work fine.
    These were all working perfectly fine on the OS X 10.5.8 installation I just upgraded from. This is the model with the 256 MB GeForce 8600M GT.
    For comparison, I upgraded a Macbook Pro 2007 model with a clean install of Snow Leopard much earlier, and it didn't exhibit any of these issues. Any ideas? This happens even upon fresh reboot (4 GB RAM installed).
