CC - Can't choose library colors

Whenever I choose one of my library colors, meaning colors that I have saved inside my library, it doesn't take effect like it does when I choose a color from the swatch palette. So I'm not able to actually use it. I have to actually pick a color from my swatches panel in order to get to it. Is this yet another bug discussed as work in progress at the Adobe HQ? Or is it actually supposed to be this way?

Sorry, false alarm, just needed PC restart. When will I learn?

  • Local Adjustment Brush - can't choose color

    When I choose to add color to a local adjustment brush, there is a small square on the color spectrum but I cannot select anything as my eye dropper has disappeared.  How do I get it back?  I am able to choose a color from the swatch above but not within the color spectrum below.
    I appreciate any help.

    I'm using Windows 7 and my monitor drives are up to date (or at least as recently as last week I checked).  I think it is a setting somewhere.  I can still choose a color but have to do it with the arrow keys.

  • Terrance Devlin answered a question about iPhoto (4-2012) re:copying iPhoto Library to an ExHD, and losing all the albums. I can't locate the "Choose Library" when I open iPhoto with the opt button. Can anyone help?

    I tried to move my images (over 25,000) to an External Hard drive to open up some memory, hoping to make my computer run faster. It took three hours to move the images and I see them all in the mac's menus. However when I try to open them with iPhoto now, none appeared. and when I tried to import them back to the main HD they come in to iPhoto just fine, but not with the albums nor any of the massive organization i'd created in the original. this represents years of images, and I can't imagine that I'd have to recopy them into folders/albums again.
    Terrance Devlin answered a similar question back in April of last year. He said to make sure the ExHD is formatted to MAC OS Extended (Journaled) and to move the library to the ExHD and then open iPhoto with the option button and select "Choose Library" from the resulting menu.
    Command "I" tells me that the new drive is formatted correctly. I can't locate the "Choose Library" when I open iPhoto with the opt button.
    First, I wondered if the application needs to be on the same drive as the Library. I sure would like to know if I can find out how to restore all the folders I had them in. Terrance's advice helped the user that had asked the question.

    Can anyone help? I'm using iPhoto 5. My MAC is an OS X version 10.4.11.
    thanks, brokenlom

    Here are Apple's instructions:
    If you are using iPhoto ’06 or earlier, you will need to follow these steps to tell iPhoto where the Library is now located:
    Hold down the Option key on the keyboard and open iPhoto. Keep the Option key held down until you are prompted to create or choose an iPhoto Library.
    Click Choose Library.
    Locate and select the iPhoto Library in its new location.
    (from http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1229 )
    Below (in the link below) is what you should see when holding down the option key and opening iPhoto. Keep holding down the option key until this dialogue comes up. You want to select the Choose Library button.

  • How Can I add a color profile to OS X 10.8.4?

    How Can I add a color profile to OS X 10.8.4?
    I've tried to locate the color profile folder but it's not availble.

    Hello gipseyeyes,
    It sounds like you're trying to add a ColorSync Profile to your Mac.  I found a few resources that may help.
    First, I recommend reviewing the following article:
    Mac OS X: How to Create a ColorSync Profile Used By Every Account
    http://support.apple.com/kb/TA22329
    The note in step 6 from that article is particularly useful for your situation:
    Note: You may need to make some of these folders if they do not exist.
    Also, the user Library in Mountain Lion is hidden, so you will need to follow these steps to get to "~/Library/ColorSync/Profiles/":
    OS X Mountain Lion: What is the Library folder?
    The Library folder contains files used by OS X and your apps, including your personal fonts and preferences. The Library folder is hidden. If you need to open it, make sure you are in the Finder, hold down the Option key, and then choose Go > Library.
    You can find the full article here:

  • Can AS Choose Bookmarks Open In Tabs?

    Hi folks.
    After scanning the Safari dictionary, I was wondering if I can integrate choosing a bookmarks folder to be opened in tabs. I develop using about 8 tabs and I often choose that. I would like to trigger that by using a script. Can this be done?
    I have the bookmarks in a current folder, and it would be nice to be able to point to that locus. However, from the looks of the library, I'd have to open each tab individually with a direct URL.
    In any case, happy to hear what people have found.
    Cheers

    This script will take a list of URLs and open them in tabs in a single document - which is, I think, what you are asking for with the exception of the folder part (see below). If not what you want, do elaborate.
    When you say you have the bookmarks in a current folder, are you referring to a Safari bookmark folder or a set of weblocs in a Finder folder?
    <pre style="
    font-family: Monaco, 'Courier New', Courier, monospace;

    width: 720px;
    color: #000000;
    background-color: #FFDDFF;
    overflow: auto;">
    set bookmarkList to {"http://discussions.apple.com/", "http://www.apple.com/", "http://www.macintouch.com/"}
    tell application "Safari"
    make new document at end of documents
    set URL of document 1 to item 1 of bookmarkList
    set bookmarkList to items 2 thru end of bookmarkList
    repeat with theBookmark in bookmarkList
    make new tab at end of tabs of window 1 with properties {URL:theBookmark}

  • Library can't upgrade to iPhoto '11, can't rebuild Library either.

    After recently installing iLife '11, my iPhoto Library became unusable. When I OK'd iPhoto to "upgrade" my library, it started the process and then presented an error message "iPhoto is unable to open this Library".
    I couldn't rebuild the Library either. So I was able to "downgrade" back to iPhoto '09 and restored my Library from an older backup (a couple days old). I simply moved iPhoto '11 to the desktop, deleted iPhoto prefs, and reinstalled iPhoto '09 from disc. My intention was to use iPhoto '09 to rebuild the library and then upgrade again. After reinstalling iPhoto '09, I can open my iPhoto library just fine. Appears to be normal. However, when I try to "rebuild" the library, iPhoto instantly quits. No error messages or anything. Just quits.
    I downloaded iPhoto Library Manager hoping that it may allow me to rebuild the library. When I try to do that, it prompts me to use iPhoto 9.0 ('11) to upgrade the library before I rebuild. It appears that my Mac (at least iPhoto Library Manager) still thinks iPhoto 9.0 ('11) is installed. I'm positive that iPhoto 8.1 is installed, and that's what's in my Applications folder. That's what is successfully opening my iPhoto library. Any ideas on how I can rebuild this Library in '09 so that I can try to "upgrade" again?
    Running on new iMac with 10.6.4 installed.

    Just wanted to chime in to this as I ran into the same issue, and these boards have been a great resource in the past.
    Here's what I attempted to do that didn't fix the issue;
    - Tried to rebuild the library from iPhoto '11 (CMD+Option) when opening the program, which failed with the exact same error as OSO - Mac was mentioning above.
    - Reverted back to iPhoto '09 (deleted iPhoto '11 from /Applications/, as well as deleted any reference to iPhoto in /Library/Receipts; I saw no references but took that suggestions from a previous thread here), then reinstalled iPhoto '09 via original discs. I was able to open the library as I wanted (pulled a library from a few days ago in a Time Machine backup to be safe), then attempted to rebuild in hopes that would help issue. Reinstalled iPhoto '11, but the same issue occurred.
    Here's what I attempted to do that somewhat fixed the issue;
    - Option-clicked to open iPhoto '11, then chose to create a new library. Created a new library (I named mine iPhoto2) in the ~/Pictures/ folder. Closed iPhoto. Then I navigated to the ~/Pictures/ folder, right-clicked on the original iPhoto library that won't open, as well as the newly created iPhoto library that does open (but lacks any content), and choose to Show Contents. I manually copied all the contents of the original iPhoto library to the new iPhoto library (some folders and files overwrote, some did not; note that the structure of the iPhoto '11 library is radically different than that of the iPhoto '09 library) and then re-opened iPhoto. iPhoto prompted me to upgrade the library again (peculiar since the library technically was created in iPhoto '11, but I guess it saw elements of the iPhoto '09 structure) and successfully upgraded the library. The only downside was that, for whatever reason, certain photos did not come back and were blatantly missing thumbnails and originals. But my album structure, faces, etc. remained intact.
    What I did that finally fixed the issue;
    - Brought back my good library from a Time Machine backup, then right-clicked on it within ~/Pictures/ and chose Get Info. I manually set permissions for everyone on my machine (admin, staff, everyone, and myself) to Read & Write. Option-clicked when opening iPhoto, forced it to look for my newly-permissioned library, and viola, upgraded without issue and no lost photos.
    Not sure if my solution will work for all, and my apologies for providing such information that isn't so concrete, but since these are user-to-user forums, I thought I'd offer my experience as I was not able to locate any other solutions without entirely losing my album structure, faces data, etc.

  • How can I correct background color and graphics in Firefox?

    For some reason some background color images and fonts do not appear in Firefox. Other browsers are mostly fine. I've tried most common fixes to no avail. I'm running Windows 7 Ultimate.
    I've attached two screenshots. One is Firefox viewing Google. The other one may be relevant because I can't change the color of fonts in Word and other Office docs.
    Anyway, I'm stumped on the Firefox side. The browser has been uninstalled, re installed, and refreshed.

    Make sure that you haven't enabled a High Contrast theme in the Windows/Mac Accessibility settings.

  • In working on a simple home budget,  how can I change the color of a negative number to red,  during the period the number is negative.    Thanks,

    Using Numbers spreadsheet and In working on a simple home budget,  how can I change the color of a number to RED when it  comes up negative.  (only during the time that it's negative)  Thanks,  ( I hope I did this right!!) 

    The Inspector offers choices of format for negative numbers when you choose Number of Currency as the format for a cell. Also offered when the format is set to Automatic, IF the selected cell(s) contain number(s).
    The choices are in the pop-up menu beside the box for number of decimal places.

  • How can I change the color of birthday calendar?

    The birthday calendar in the new iPhone OS gets it color automatically. How can I change the color? It does not correspond to the color in iCal on my Mac.

    I figured out a solution for changing the other calendars but not the birthday calendar. Although it's not the most direct fix, it worked for me. Apparently Apple didn't think to give us the ability to choose the calendar color. I use Entourage and sync over the air. When I upgraded to iOS 4 my calendar turned bright red and the birthday calendar was blue. I don't use the birthday calendar so it isn't even enabled in my case. What finally worked was to go through the calendar colors one at a time by disabling and re-enabling the calendar in my mail account settings. I would double click the home button to quickly switch between settings and calendar to check the color each time I enabled the calendar. I had to do this 4 or 5 times to cycle through until blue came back up.

  • How can I change the color of the text/font for my emails on iPad?

    HHow do I change the font color when typing email messages on iPad?

    on Mail (the native app from Apple) you can only choose between bold, italic and underline.
    Unfortunately there's not for a while an option to change color or font size.

  • How can I change the color styles of a theme?

    I'd like to be able to set the color styles shown on the pick list of a theme for elements in my slides. For example, each default theme in Keynote has different colors available when you click the drop down for an element on the slide, like text or shapes. Some of them are bright pastels, some are dark and earthy. There are 6 colors to choose from, plus gradients when appropriate. I'd like to set my own colors for a theme for the user to choose from. I know they can choose any color from the color wheel, but that's not what I want. I want to change the 6 preset colors for a theme.

    in short: you can't.
    long version: themes and animations in iMovie are base upon Quicktime QUARTZ technology; highly complex files, 'programmed'. theoretically, you could open the corresponding .qtz file from the iM package with a Developer tool and re-program it ... no beginner's task + a violation of the ToU of the iLife.apps you signed.
    Plan B) have a look at Motion5 ... build your own design
