Can't apply my 3rd party filters anymore in Photoshop CS5 after installing a twain driver

I installed a twain driver (i now realize this was a mistake) in my CS5 for the purpose of scanning within it.  Since doing so, I can no longer apply my topaz filters (or any 3rd party filters for that matter).  The filter interface opens fine, and i can see the filter on my image, however, when I click out of it, nothing is applied to my image.  Help?!?

For a very quick fix, try removing the Adobe TWAIN plug-in or at least disabling it by closing Photoshop and  typing a ~ (that's a tilde ~) in front of its name, then relaunch Photoshop.
That's why Adobe doesn't even include the now-optional TWAIN plug-in as part of the default installation of Photoshop any more.

  • Can I add a 3rd party SSD to a dv7 that has the 750GB Hybrid drive?

    I have been given contradictory answers from 2 different HP sales reps.
    I am looking to purchase a dv7 with a single storage drive, and will at some later time like to add a second storage drive to the empty bay. One rep told me that both the dv6 and dv7 have 2 empty bays, and I am nearly certain this is incorrect as I've read that people were removing the optical drives of their dv6 in order to add a second disk storage drive. I was also told that if I purchase the laptop with the hybrid drive, I would NOT be able to add a SSD later on down the road because of incompatibility. Another rep told me that if I started with the hybrid drive, I COULD add a second storage drive, in the form of either a SSD or HDD.
    I realize that when trying to customize the laptop, it won't allow me to choose both the 750GB hybrid AND the 32GB SSD together, as it forces me to choose either the hybrid alone, or the regular HDD and the 32GB SSD...so perhaps there is some truth to a hybrid and SSD not being able to function together properly???
    So my question remains, if I customize a dv7 with only the 750GB Hybrid drive, could I later add a 3rd party SSD without issues?

    The hybrid drive is physically just a 2.5 inch laptop hard drive and will leave a bay open. The 32 gig ssd is an mSATA module and is located far away from the hard drives so even if one is present it should not block use of a second hard drive. Here is the most recent dv7 manual. Look at pages 47 and 70.
    Manual
    I believe as long as you have only one 2.5 inch standard SATA drive the second hard drive bay is available for an additional drive. You may need a caddy and cable, however. 
    What exact model of the dv7 are you looking to purchase? This would help answer more definitely I think. The dv6 definitely does not have 2 hard drive bays, just the dv7. 

  • Can't get updates to Photoshop CS5 after installing. When I download the updates, i get this.

    There was an error downloading this update. Please quit and try again later.  I have been trying for 2 days and keep getting the same thing. Is there a problem with the download server or what?

    Power off your computer. Power up your computer while pressing and holding pressed the option/alt key. When the boot manager appears, select OSX to boot.

  • Can't open photoshop cs5 after installing yosemite

    I even tried installing Java as suggested but to no avail. I guess I'm going to have to wait for an update from Adobe unless this is some scheme to try to get me to upgrade.
    Thanks for your time,
    Bryan

    CS5 predates Yosemite by what is it now, 5 years?  I wouldn't hold my breath waiting for CS5 to be updated since it's no longer supported.

  • Motion 3rd Party Filters

    How do I install 3rd party filters in Motion 3? Also.. How can I remove folders in the 3rd party filters tab within Motion. Where is the 3rd Party Filters folder in the finder? thanks

    I have all that, but I don't understand how to do it.. In the original Motion, there was a 3rd party location selection in the prefs.. The manual, on page 139, says Click Choose (next to the search path). I cannot find that... I can only find the CHOOSE for the Library Path.
    On page 139 it states that the FX have to be Universal, but on page 963, it says it 3rd party filters only work on Power PCs...
    I've also added a few "Untitled Folder"s to the 3rd Party Filters tab within Motion. How can I remove them? Do they physically sit on the hard drive somewhere?
    I'm lost. Can I do this....? thanks

  • How can I use a 3rd party XML parser such as xerces with OC4J ?

    Hi all tech experts,
    I am using Oracle Application Server 10g Release 2 (10.1.2) and i have
    installed Portal and Wireless and OracleAS Infrastructure on the same
    computer.
    i tried all the solutions on this thread
    Use of Xerces Parser in out application with Oracle App Server 9.0.4
    but still fighting.
    I have also posted this query on OTN on following thread
    How can I use a 3rd party XML parser such as xerces with OC4J?
    but no reply....
    Please help me on this issue.
    Since OC4J is preconfigured to use the Oracle XML parser which is xmlparserv2.jar.
    i have read the following article which states that
    OC4J is preconfigured to use the Oracle XML parser. The Oracle XML parser is fully JAXP 1.1 compatible and will serve the needs of applications which require JAXP functionality. This approach does not require the download, installation, and configuration of additional XML parsers.
    The Oracle XML parser (xmlparserv2.jar) is configured to load as a system level library of OC4J through it's inclusion as an entry in the Class-Path entry of the oc4j.jar Manifest.mf file. This results in the Oracle XML parser being used for all common deployment and packaging situations. You are not permitted to modify the Manifest.mf file of oc4j.jar.
    It must be noted that configuring OC4J to run with any additional XML parser or JDBC library is not a supported configuration. We do know customers who have managed to successfully replace the system level XML parser and the Oracle JDBC drivers that ship with the product, but we do not support this type of configuration due to the possibility of unexpected system behavior and system errors that might occur from replacing the tested and certified libraries.
    If you absolutely must use an additional XML parser such as xerces, then you have to start OC4J such that the xerces.jar file is loaded at a level above the OC4J system classpath. This can be accomplished using the -Xbootclasspath flag of the JRE.
    i have also run the following command
    java -Xbootclasspath/a:d:\xerces\xerces.jar -jar oc4j.jar
    but no success.
    How could i utilize my jar's like xerces.jar and xalan.jar for parsing instead of OC4J in-built parser ?
    All reply will be highly appreciated.
    Thnx in advance to all.

    Hi Neeraj Sidhaye,
    I am trying to deploy a sample xform application to the Oracle Application Server (10.1.3). However, I encountered the class loader issue that is similar to your stuation. I tried all the three solutions but the application is still use the Oracle xml paser class. I am wondering if you have any insight about this?
    Thanks for your help.

  • Lost all my actions and 3rd party filters after upgrading to Photoshop CC 2014

    How do I get all of my actions and 3rd party filters from Photoshop CC to Photoshop CC 2014?

    If you migrate your CC presets you should get your Actions, Pattens, Sahapes, Shapes etc back. Menu Edit>Presets>Migrare Presets. You need to copy or to install you 3rd Party plug-ins into CC 2014.

  • Quick Question on 64-Bit PS CS5 & 3rd Party Filters

    I assume that if one installs the 64-bit version of PS CS5 (or above), that all older 3rd party Filters/Effects will have to either be upgraded (if possible), or replaced by a newer one. Is that correct?
    In Premiere Pro CS5, that is the case with all Effects, and CODEC's, but I am about to install PS CS5 on a new computer, and just want to verify my suspicions.
    As I have a ton of older Filters, and many are now long gone from the market, if that is the case, I might then install both the 32-bit and 64-bit, or keep my older PS CS2 handy, just for those.
    TIA,
    Hunt

    If you want to use a plug-in in the 64 bit Photoshop, then yes - a plug-in has to be compiled for 64 bit operation.  There is absolutely NO WAY to use a 32 bit plug-in with 64 bit Photoshop and vice versa.
    Photoshop normally installs both a 32 and 64 bit version on a 64 bit machine, and older plug-ins are generally compatible with the 32 bit version.  I have some old ones I still use, and they're probably never going to become available on 64 bits.
    I suggest that unless you have a DIRE shortage of disk space, you install both 32 and 64 bit Photoshop.  There are some intangible reasons...  Sometimes bugs in OpenGL drivers show up in one and not the other.  In other cases sometimes you might want a slightly different configuration for one than the other (e.g., for testing).  For a long time, for example, I kept my 32 bit Photoshop CS5 with OpenGL disabled, so I could easily test things both with and without OpenGL.
    Again, if you don't lack disk space I recommend keeping the old Photoshop (CS2) around as well.  Sometimes you remember that something used to work a certain way, and you want to go back and check...

  • Can I remove safely Photoshop CS5 after a successful upgrade to Photoshop CS6?

    Can I remove safely Photoshop CS5 after a successful upgrade to Photoshop CS6? What is best and safest way to do this?

    If you are using a Windows OS
    Open CS5 and go Help > Deactivate.
    Then Control Panel > Programs and features > select CS5 and uninstall.
    Or just leave it there.  Make sure you have sorted any third party plugins from CS5, although the uninstall should leave them intact.

  • How can I process a Sony A7 RAW file into Photoshop CS5.

    How can I process a Sony A7 RAW file into Photoshop CS5.  I tried the file DNG converter 8.3, but it did not work.  I was able to download it, but upon reading the memory chip from Photoshop CS5, it reads the jpg files fine, but not the RAW files.  I thought the DNG converter 8.3 was the right file, but apparently it is not.  Perhaps I need to do something in Photoshop CS5 to initiate it, or place it in a particular directory.. Please help.

    First of all, you should have used the Adobe DNG Converter 8.6, not an old, obsolete version.  Always use the very latest version.  8.3 was simply the first ACR version to support your camera model, that's all.
    Note that the DNG Converter works only on folders, not on individual raw files.  Put all your Sony raw files in a folder and run the Converter on that folder containing the raw files.
    I have absolutely no clue as to what on Earth you mean by : "upon reading the memory chip from Photoshop CS5".
    You also need to make sure that CS5 is fully updated.  You cannot rely on the highly and notoriously unreliable Adobe auto updater to tell whether you have the latest update installed or not.
    I still have no idea what platform you are on, Mac or Windows. Please read the following for next time:
    BOILERPLATE TEXT:
    If you give complete and detailed information about your setup and the issue at hand,
    such as your platform (Mac or Win),
    exact versions of your OS, of Photoshop (not just "CS6", but something like CS6v.13.0.6) and of Bridge,
    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, etc.,
    someone may be able to help you (not necessarily this poster).
    A screen shot could be very helpful too.

  • Can I upgrade from Photoshop CS2 to CS5 after installing Lion?

    Can I upgrade from Photoshop CS2 to CS5 after installing Lion?   Or should I have done it before installing Lion?

    I think you are missing my point.
    For the last many editions of the creative suite they have each been completely independent. There is no "going over a previous version. Each version stands on its own and is a clean install — as long as you haven't installed that specific version before.
    And "obsolete" is a pretty relative term. With products as complex as the creative suite there are often features (or even whole applications) that change between versions. Many people I know keep earlier versions around, just for that very reason.
