Chromatic Aberration tools are missing...

A few days ago I got a notification about a new Camera Raw update. I told it to go ahead and install it. After it was done I got back to work. That is when I noticed my Chromatic Aberration tools were gone. The tools for fixing lens distortion and everything were still there, just the chromatic tools were MIA. Is this just me, or is this something that was planned for some reason? I have checked and tried everything short of uninstalling and reinstalling Photoshop and Bridge to fix it. Anyone else have this issue?
Oh btw, I'm on a mac running Snow Leopard

Look for an Auto-CA checkbox in the lens correction area.
Lateral-CA is caused by the red, green, and blue channels having a slightly different size on the sensor.  This was fixed by the manual-CA sliders and is now fixed by the Auto-CA capability.
Axial-CA is caused by the red, green, and blue channels focusing at slightly different points.  This will be fixed by defringing tools.

  • New Chromatic Aberration tools kills old settings.

    I've just recently found that new chromatic aberration tools kills settings for old chromatic aberration tools.
    Lets say I have a PV2010 photo with adjusted sliders for chromatic aberration reduction and selected defringe "all edges".
    Now I'm importing this photo to LR 4.1.
    Note: I'm not updating process version!
    Photo is automatically updated by Lightroom to new CA controls (note it still PV2010 photo).
    Well, I must say the the results are superb - they are the same as I was achieving with manual sliders, but now with only one click.
    But the problem is - Lightroom says that metadata have been changed, and I am writing back changes to XMP.
    But now XMP contains settings for new CA tools, but settings for old CA tools are LOST.
    So if I want to open this image in ACR 6.6, or send it to someone with older LR version I end up with completely resetted CA settings, because ACR 6.6 does not have new CA tools, and settings for old tools are killed by LR 4.1 - they are just removed from XMP.
    So I am loosing CA removal settings completely when opening image in earlier version of application.
    And I am NOT updating process version!
    Any comments on this?

    Here is screen shot in which you can see that even PV2010 photo has new CA tools and old ones are gone with their settings applied in LR3.
    I have tried to import CR2 files without any settings in the XMP into newly created empty catalog and have same result.
    When I am switching photo to PV2003 or PV2010 only new CA tools are available.
    And saving metadata to file kills old CA settings and writes settings for new tools (even for PV2010 photo) which previous versions does not understand.
    To my opinion this is very serious bug!
    Here is photoshop feedback message created 5 days ago: http://feedback.photoshop.com/photoshop_family/topics/lightroom_new_cromatic_aberration_to ols_kills_old_settings
    Looks like noone cares...
    Can someone at least say do I am the only person having this issue, or you can see this behaviour too.

  • No chromatic aberration tool?

    i shoot primarily wide angle, so i'm often dealing with CA. by not having this corrective tool as part of the RAW workflow (like in Adobe Camera Raw), i think i'll be locked out of using aperture all together. because, unlike with other features i wish aperture had - layers, masks, etc. - there is no workaround (export to photoshop).
    does anyone know if this tool there and i just can't find it? or is there a workaround that i don't know about? because overall, i very much like aperture so far, and want to be able to use it. it would be a shame if this one small but important omission kept me from using what otherwise seems like a great program.

    thanks, just realized that cs2 has a chromatic aberration tool as a filter; it seems much cruder than the one built into ACR, but it will do the trick and keep me working in aperture.

  • Certain tools are missing

    I recently installed PS touch on a Galaxy S4 and certain tools aren't available to use. A list of the missing tools are as follows: paste, deselect, inverse, feather, transform, refine edge and extract. Please let me know if you have any information as to why these tools are not available.

    Which operating system?
    If I recall, some features were not fully supported on XP.

  • Upgraded to Adobe Reader XI - Docusign and Export PDF tools are missing.  How do I get them back?  Docusign through my company is current, and Export PDF through my personal account is current as well.

    As usual, I blindly updated my PDF and now all of my tools are gone...  I used to have a tools menu on the right side where my document signing and export commands were available, and I cannot figure out how to get them back.

    Gee, Pat, this is a  real big help.
    Nobody could possibly think anyone would ask for help without first trying to fix the issue oneself. Or maybe you do. I have opened the file and looked under security. I have changed it to owner-notebook (which is what the techs called me) and clicked accept but geepers it didn't work.
    Maybe someone else has an idea.
    Take Ownership of a File or Folder
    The above should be a link. At least I copied and pasted the link. I did what was stated in there. It isn't like brain surgery. But it is not working. I ended up being able to open some pdf files after transferring them from one partition category to another. I wish it was that easy as you seem to think.
    Thanks for the help. Have a great year.

  • Tools are missing

    In Bridge CS3 I am missing Illustrator, InDesign, startmeeting and photoshop services under the Tools menu. Photoshop is there. I have looked at the startup scripts under preferences and all are checked. I've also tried restarting bridge while holding down option and reseting preferences but nothing helps. Any suggestions?  Thanks!

    Juan
    My last effort to you. Don't know why you keep stating we don't know the difference between the scripts, having nut used the ID script does not mean I don't know off its existence.
    Let's state one more time that you might want to try and copy the ID script from CS3 to the same place in Bridge CS4. I have asked you so in post 5, 8, 11 and 19, yet you have not responded on this possible solution.
    Although I doubt it will work because you probably need an similar script in ID CS4 as Tai Lao already tried to explain to you.
    I tried to gather your history and the only other contribution from you was in September last year
    http://forums.adobe.com/thread/497934
    About the same subject and in that thread I provided you with a link to Bob Stucky. Your answer there was also starting to rant on him as the guy who screwed up the script in the first place, and in this thread you claim to never heard of him, you must have a very short memory.
    You hijacked this thread in post 2 to complain about CS4 while you where well aware it was not a missing tool by fault but discontinued by default according your post from 5 months ago.
    I doubt you have ever used something else in Bridge then the said ID script but that is your own problem.
    Like it is your own problem that you seem to enjoy to rant on developers, users and people that are trying to help you despite your tone that is attacking and offending.
    As said, you where the one with a problem that seems not to exist because in in post 6 you are happy with the stupid solution you find yourself to go back in time. Yet you keep ranting in the next 6 post without ever having tried to find the old script and copy it to the CS4 Bridge, nor have you visited the InDesign forum for further knowledge, it seems you are afraid to get confronted with real experienced users of ID.
    So be it, to quote the legendary Ramón G Castañeda:
    I could'nt care less.

  • Bridge CS5.1 Tools are missing and there are no startup scripts available.

    Brand new MBP with Creative Suite CS5. Not sure what happened to the Bridge Image Processing Tools that where readily available in CS4. I looked for the Startup Scripts mentioned in other forum posts but this folder is empty: Library > Application Support > Adobe > Bridge CS5.1.
    Why make us hunt for Startup Scripts?

    I think you may be misunderstanding me.
    With many advantages with using mail for this forum the disadvantage sometimes is you don't have oversight in the whole thread.
    I was merely reacting on Curt with the CS5 and CS5.5 solution that solved some problems earlier this year but reading the thread again that seems not related to yours.
    Shortly before Curt his post I read your post about renaming the default folder name (which to me sounds bad). Hence my reference to a solution of an older problem that was solved by creating a new folder with the 5.1 addition and copy the scripts in there
    However I still don't understand why you are not able to have a normal setup after clean install.
    Without having experience with Lion I really would try the Recovery Disk for resetting your user account. With Pre Lion you could do an Archive and Install and it seems Lion also has such an option.

  • Tools are missing from toolbar in Elements 10

    I have searched forums; clicked on every image that appears in the toolbar (copy below), reset the tool bar several times and still cannot find any "shape" tool.  The installation was from a disk, and the Elements is installed on two computers, neither of which have a shape or line tool.  Please help me find it.

    Right click on the heart icon above the sponge tool, near the bottom. They are nested there.

  • Masking (shape tools) are missing

    Dear fellow Premiere Pro users,
    I don't have the shape tools on any of the effects on my effect controls, anybody know why?
    or are there any other methods to create a mask? Need your help!
    My version is v7.2.2
    Thanks,
    Tevin

    I have to agree that Adobe is a bit remiss in advising when a CC version is just updates and backwardly compatible or a version "upgrade".
    It can cause issues either way in my opinion.
    I am really cautious.
    eg. I have not upgraded to 8.2x for this very reason.(Too many projects unfinished in the pipeline.) . I dont know which way it rolls out version wise.

  • Is there a chromatic aberration or purple fringing tool in PSE 10?

    The subject line basically says it all.  The chromatic aberration tool in Aperture doesn't do much for me.  Is there one in PSE 10?  Thank you.

    Well, PSE's implementation of ACR can help correct chromatic aberration somewhat.  Here's the original image from somegirl's web site:

    Results in this:
    Not great, but better than I expected.

  • Would like some assistance with removing chromatic aberration from images . In using the slider tool only some of aberration is removed tried brushing in but not successful. After magnifying image 1005 i can still see some slight purple fringing .

    Can anyone assist me in using chromatic aberration tools in removing purple fringing completely from images?  I have had limited success in using the slider , but in zooming in at 100% I can still see slight purple fringing in image . i tried brushing in but that did not seem to remove purple fringing completely.

  • Lr and NEF Chromatic Aberration

    Dear All,
    The more I look at (D700) NEFs in Lr, the more I think Lr does not do justice to them (note that I do not blame Adobe for this). Indeed, if I look at Lr's rendition of NEFs compared to the in-camera generated JPEGs, I see chromatic aberrations which are not present in the JPEG. For instance compare
    with
    Clearly, the top image exhibits much less chromatic aberration than the second. Now, the top image is the JPEG and the bottom one is the NEF. Clearly, Nikon's on-board chip knows more about rendering the raw image than Lr does. Anyone else seen this effect ?
    With the introduction of camera profiles in V2.4, Lr made a step in the right direction. Now the question is: When will Lr be able to do at least as well as Nikon's on-bord chips when it comes to chromatic aberration ? Couldn't Adobe "buy" Nikon's "secret" and get Lr up to top speed ?
    Thanks for your time and input, folks.

    Jepoma

    Sorry, but the camera generated jpg includes all of Nikon's in-camera processing.  There is no reason why a nef in LR should duplicate it exactly.  Since Nikon is perhaps the hardest core about making certain information proprietary, you are comparing apples and oranges, or more appropriately a raw apple to an apple pie made with a secret recipe.  From my perspective, LR will never do "as well" as the on board chip because you aren't seeing the results of the onboard chip anyway but rather the processed data from that chip.  Actually, the LR image is likely closer to the unprocessed data than the jpg. Personally, I don't like Nikon's in-camera processing (and have never been comfortable with the detail I am losing with Nikon jpgs), so I shoot exclusively raw and am happy to do all the adjustment in LR.
    As far as Adobe buying "the secrets" from Nikon, I just think that is a bit naive.  That assumes that Adobe is the stumbling block, when the reality is Nikon has pushed to keep things propietary and sells its own (lousy) software to take advantage of the propietary aspects.  BTW, of course you are blaming Adobe - LR is not a living being, it is a piece of software designed by the people at Adobe.  If it doesn't do what you want and you are comparing it unfavorably to the Nikon straight-from-camera jpg, you would appear to be attributing a deficiency to someone. Based upon the rest of the post that certainly would appear to be the producers of LR....

  • InDesign CS6 and CS5 tools are incomplete

    Hello all,
    Why is Configurator 3.1 missing so many InDesign tools?
    Content Collector tools are missing.
    And especially missing are the Stroke/Fill activation buttons; the Default Fill/Stroke buttons; the Swap Fill/Stroke buttons; the Formatting Affects Container/Text buttons; the Apply Color/Gradient/None buttons; the Normal/Bleed buttons.
    These main omissions make it impossible to make a custom tool panel using Configurator 3.1.
    Or is there a way?
    Best to you,
    Mike Witherell in Maryland

    In Configurator 3.1.1, the Content Collector tools were added.
    Still, there is no Stroke/Fill/Default/Swap/Formatting Affects Container/Text; no Apply Color/Gradient?None; nor any Normal View / Bleed view buttons.
    Is there a way around these limitations?
    Best,
    Mike Witherell in Maryland

  • The chromatic aberration checkbox that should be under lens corrections is missing

    The chromatic aberration check box that should be present under lens corrections is missing from my LR4 program, can anyone tell me what the problem is and how to get it back

    What version of LR4 are you using? There was a change made to the CA removal process in LR4.1, and the "Remove Chromatic Aberration" check box is now under the "Color" tab of the Lens Correction panel.
