Clarity slider missing

I have opened jpg files in Camera RAW with CS3 and I don't see the Clarity slider. I only see the Vibrance and Saturation sliders. Do I need to actually open a RAW file to see the Clarity slider? I am trying to follow along with Scott Kelby's book - 7 Pt System for Photoshop CS3. He seems to be able to do it.
Mac OS X 10.5.1
PS CS3

I'm trying to figure out where my clarity tool is in CS3 on mac. I've supposedly downloaded the update of at least 4.4.1 as I understand that ACR 4.0 did not have the clarity tool. What do I do after this download though? It is still nowhere to be found??

Clarity slider and tone curve in LR4

Why does the clarity slider seem different to me in LR4 (4.1 RC actually)? IN LR3 I loved that thing. I would ramp it up quite a bit with many photos. It would give it a nice crisp look. Now it seems as if it just makes my shots look like they have too much contrast. Also, when using the clarity brush, many times it seems as if where I paint it on it actually lightens it up. I havce had to look as see if I had the exposure tool on instead.
Also, I swear a "medium contrast" tone curve setting is different now as well. This was the default setting in LR3. Now default is linear. But if I apply a medium curve from the drop down, it looks over cooked? What the heck? Are these things just me? BTW I am working RAW files. Thanks

If you want a PV2010 linear tone curve for PV2012, using the DNG Profile Editor (DPE):
* convert any raw file to DNG (if not already DNG)
* load it into the DPE
* Edit things if you want, except for the tone curve.
* Save the recipe.
* Load it (dcpr file) into a text editor.
* Replace the tone curve with this:

* Re-save the file in your text editor
* Re-load the changed recipe in DPE
* Export a profile with a tone curve equivalent to PV2010 linear.
Note: The tone/point curve in Lightroom will not have any points on it that way.
PS - This procedure assumes you will be using the "Base Profile" for "Base Tone Curve" in order to achieve equivalence with PV2010 linear in PV2012 (for the same Cam-cal profile(s)). If what you want is a truly linear tone curve, select "Linear" as "Base Tone Curve".

Clarity slider in camera raw disappeared when I installed CS3 Bridge on my new mac laptop

I have recently installed CS3 bridge on to my new mac book pro and when I went into camera raw to edit photos, the clarity slider has dissappeard.
I had bridge intall on my previous laptop, the same one, and the clarity slider was there.
I have tryed up dates but they have made no differance.
I'm running 2.0.0.975
Thanks for any help!!
Deb

That's an obsolete, super-buggy version of Bridge, but the clarity slider should not have disappeared, of course.
You should be at Bridge 2.1.1.9.
Try updating to Bridge 2.1.1.9 in the hope that the updater fixes your bad install, but if that doesn't do it, you're going to have to re-install from scratch.
Of course, your new MacBook Pro must have come with Mountain Lion 10.6.8, which so far has proven to be one Apple's worst OS offerings, and there so guarantee that CS3, even with its updates. will work well with new OS.
Wish you good luck!

Clarity Slider disappeared in Camera Raw CS3

I'm working my way through Scott Kelby's 7-Point book and in lesson 7, I'm directed to adjust the clarity slider in Camera Raw but it's just not there! I see vibrance and saturation but no clarity. Can anyone help me find this baby? thanks so much for your help.

I installed the latest version of Camera Raw today, but still no clarity slider. In Kelbys book its shown in the screen capture as right above the vibrance slider, so I guess its made an appearance on his computer at least. Any other thoughts?

Slides missing when published to avi - HELP!!

Hi there
I've got a huge problem that I jsut can't fix - for two of my Captivate 4 projects, there are whole batches of slides missing (12 in a row is the worst case) when I publish the project as an AVI
I've been working on 12 seperate projects, each containing between 10 - 50 slides, with some audio, FMR and text captions (basically, nothing too complex, as I'm a first time user).
For at least two projects, when I publish to AVI (full frames, uncompressed), the videos just miss whole seconds of footage - there is no gap or silence, and the footage just continues from, say, slide5 straight into the second half of slide14 without a pause or noise.
The project is PERFECT when previewed fully, and when it plays and records itself before the publishing begins. Infact, I've exported it before with no issues.
Any ideas what's going on? Are they just corrupted?
I've tried re-importing the audio on the missing slides, adjusting the slide durations slightly, and basically fiddled with them, but each time I publish, the missing gap is EXACTLY the same.
the only thing I can think of is that I recently copied the whole project folder (with all the linked audio copied over into the same folder directory) from my network drive to my local drive. But as I said, I have other projects that have no, or only insignificant issues during publishing and they were also copied over in the same way.
Tearing my hair out with Captivate at the moment!!
Any help much appreciated!!

I've experienced this type of frustration publishing to SWF format in Captivate 3 which, of course, cannot export to AVI format. I don't know if the solution I've tried will work in Captivate 4, but it's worth a shot.
It was definitely a glitchy thing in Captivate where the program just lost its mind and was ignoring the slides as they were setup. (That's not a professional diagnosis.) In a couple cases, I had to recreate the slide, from scratch, where the issue began and delete its doppelganger. That stopped the issue from starting and the following slides fell in line.
Another time all I had to do was move the audio clips around on the timeline. It was important that I released the clip in a new location before returning it to its original start point. I had to do this on all the affected slides.
There had to be some sort of corruption going on, but these two options helped me at different times. I hope one of them works for you, Robert.

Clarity Slider

Please, please bring back the original clarity slider...the one in Lightroom 4 is dreadful. It adds exposure adjustments now and is difficult to control. The subtlety of the older version is gone...if anyone else agrees with me then please comment below and perhaps Adobe will take notice.

There is more to it than just the strength of the clarity slider in LR4 - see here: http://www.keptlight.com/2012/04/lightroom-4-clarity-slider/
I use the clarity slider in negative as a quick fix for smoothing skin. In LR4 this is noit possible as it changes the exposure substantially.
And yes - if enough people complain about it perhaps Adobe will do something about it.

Clarity slider in cs3

I am working with cs3 in windows 7 x64 and cannot get the clarity slider in camera raw. I do get it in my computer running the cs3 in vista x32?

You should update to the latest camera raw, which is 4.6 for cs3.
The easiest way is to use Help>Update from within photoshop or bridge.

Help !!! Up down left right slides missing from block diagram !!!

H E L P !!!! Hi I am right in the middle of editing my labview program and all of a sudden on my block diagram the up down and left right slides have dissappeared from the screen ? How do I get them back ? I have tried closing the program and reopening it but when the saved program reopens the slides are still missing for pulling the programs scope left right up and down !!! Thanks John

Hi,
are you sure the slides (please fill me in what are those?) are missing?
May be you have dragged the mouse while holding down the CTRL-key that auto-expands your block diagram?
To verify use the find function and search for the name of an indicator/control that has gone missing
Another way might be using ctrl-shift-N, this will show a small overview of your VI.
Ton
BTW your VI should fit into one (1) or two (2) screen of 1024X768 and never expand it in both directions!!

Slides or Elements of slides missing

Hi -- I'm VERY FRUSTRATED! I've been using Captivate for
years now --- I just upgraded my machine to a top of the line model
running Vista. Because of this, I'm using the trial version of
Captivate 3 (my old-reliable Captivate 1 doesn't record audio with
Vista).
Anyways, I have quite a simple project that I thought would
only take a few hours --- going on 2 weeks now! I finally finished
the project and went to preview it ---- whole slides or elements of
the slides are simply missing -- white screen. On those slides that
have audio, I can hear the audio, just can't see what I want to see
on screen.
What makes it frustrating is that in "storyboard" mode,
everything looks perfect. For this project, I needed to work in
that mode. When I move to "edit" mode, the slides have the elements
missing just like when published. As an additional frustration,
often in "edit" mode, the preview doesn't show the slide I have
selected, but often the next slide. This makes it hard to replace
the slides I would like to.
Can anyone help? My client is irritated it's taking so long!
Thanks,
Dan

Welcome to our community, Dan
If this is only happening during preview, my guess is that
you have Flash Player 10 installed. It should publish just fine if
this is the case. What happens if you preview in the browser?
Cheers... Rick

Icon size slider missing in standard folders

Is there any way to enable the missing Icon size slider in all folders? This slider is present on the Path Bar in Spotlight search folders (like Today) and VERY USABLE when you work with images. You can set a LARGE Icon Preview size temporarily (much larger compared to what view options window permits), select the image you need than set it back to smaller one. But only in spotligh. Is there any solution for this problem?

I reported this back in February and then again last night. My call was escalated to a specialist who connected remotely to my desktop to see the behavior since none of their computers were having that issue. After seeing the slider not working on my machine, he suggested that I create a temporary partition and install a fresh copy of Lion and see if the issue persists. After installing a fresh copy of Lion, I was still having the slider issue and reported back to the specialist via e-mail. I will know more when I hear back from the person tomorrow.
Also, there is another issue with Lion that people haven't mentioned but the Quick Look feature doesn't work all the time. Files wouldn't render and bringing up Quick Look the 2nd time on the same file does render correctly but then if you use the arrow keys to move between other files, the Quick Look doesn't update with the new file that is selected. Additionally, PDF files with multiple pages also doesn't render or it will render the 1st page but the other pades remain blank with the circular loading icon on them.

Blank slides & missing content from Windows PPT to the mac

When I open PowerPoint files from the PC on the mac in PowerPoint 2011, there are blank pages/missing content. When I open in PowerPoint 2008 on the mac it's fine. I've removed duplicated fonts, and checked under a different user profile - but it still persists. Ideas??? I don't really want to use 2008 for slides...

Suggest you post on the Microsoft Mac forums since you're not having issues with any Apple product: http://answers.microsoft.com/en-us/mac

Volume slider missing iPod

Volume slider is missing.

When you restored it, did you re-load your last backup? If so, then restore again but set it up as a new iPod to see if that helps. If it does help, then since you're not re-loading your last backup you'll have to re-do all your preferences, network log-ins, e-mail, etc. and you'll lose any game data.

Volume and Volume Slider Missing

Recently, I dropped my 32GB iPod Touch 4th Generation into a bowl of water. I had an Otterbox Survivor Case on it, however, the rubber pieces were missing where the headphone jack and the charging jack are. After drying off my iPod and placing it in a bowl of rice, I soon came to the realization that my volume slider was missing. Panicking, I attempting pressing the sidebar buttons, sliding my fingers across where the slider should be, even turning off and restarting my device.

If/when the iPod is totally dry:
- Try cleaning out/blowing out the headphone jack. Try inserting/removing the plug a dozen times or so. There is a little switch in the headphone jack that disconnects the speaker when the headphone jack is inserted.
Try the following to rule out a software problem
- Reset the iOS device. Nothing will be lost
Reset iPod touch: Hold down the On/Off button and the Home button at the same time for at
least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears.
- Reset all settings
Go to Settings > General > Reset and tap Reset All Settings.
All your preferences and settings are reset. Information (such as contacts and calendars) and media (such as songs and videos) aren’t affected.
- Restore from backup
- Restore to factory settings/new iOS device.
- Make an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store. Seems you have a hardware problem caused by the water.
Apple Retail Store - Genius Bar
Apple will exchange your iPod for a refurbished one for $199 for 64 GB 4G and $99 for the other 4Gs. They do not fix yours.

Region transpose slider missing

Dear all - I want to transpose a loop / recorded region but the +-12 Semitone slider does not show up. I select the region, open the editor but can only see a grey field with the name of the region - no transpose slider. Can anybody help or give a hint - thank you so much!
Wolfgang

Select theTrack Editor.
Select the audio track in the track area and then the audio region in that track.
Click the "Region" tab in the head of the track editor.
If the "Transpose" slider does not show, enlarge the track editor pane by dragging the dividing line to the track region upward.
If the "Transpose" slider is unresponsive, enable Flex for the track and "Follow Tempo and Pitch"
