Clicking in Layer Pallet Makes AI Crash

Hi Everyone,
I am having a problem with AI when I click on a layer in the Layer Pallet AI crashes.
I am running AI on:
Windows XP Professional Version 2002
Dell Optiplex CX745
Intel core 2 cpu
2 GB of RAM
This problem does not occur all the time. AI seems to be rather temperamental about it. I am not able to replicate the problem on command.
Any help or advice is greatly appreciated.
Thank you=)
Cherie

  • Opening RAW photo in editor - cannot add a layer or make adjustments.

    Greetings - I have recently upgraded to Photoshop Elements 13. I have a Nikon and I am shooting in RAW. Recently I have found that when I open a photo in the Editor - the vast majority of actions are grayed out. I cannot add a layer - or make other adjustments to the photo. I am opening the photo - it opens in ACR - and then I click on Open button. This is where the trouble is. I have checked the photo bin and in other areas of my computer and the photo is not open in another area. Please see the screen shot of the editor with the photo - I have tried several photos opening them directly from my computer and from the organizer and I am getting the same issue.  I do hope you can help -

    You will be using a 16 bit image and need to change to 8 bits.
    You can do that in the camera raw dialog before sending the image into the regular editor. There is a dropdown menu to the left of the Open Image button. Or you can do it inside the regular editor using the top menu:
    Image >> Mode >> 8 Bits/Channel

  • Command-clicking a layer does not select it in the Layer panel

    In earler version of PS, command clicking a layer in the artboard would select the layer in the layer pallet so it could be manipulated. This does not seem to be the case in CS6 (I'm getting the highest level group selected)

    Command key brings up the move tool. And you have different settings for auto-select in CS6 than in your previous version.
    Go check the settings for the move tool.

  • Importing Motion into FCE makes it crash

    I've been trying to work out some problems with Final Cut Express (FCE). Through a long process I think it may have to do with Motion. FCE was crashing at startup when on cue it said "profiling for RT Extreme. Basically after reinstalling FCE, only sequences without Motion files worked and FCE would crash if I try to drop in or import Motion files.
    I've included the posts I made in the FCE discussion:
    "I've been using FCE HD for the last two years without any problem. If anything, it was nothing but a little trashing of the preferences ot fix the problem. But yesterday morning, I started FCE up. The startup window with through everything like normal. It reminded me that I didn't have any decks connected. I clicked "Continue". The next thing that it said it was on cue was "Profiling for RT Extreme". I heard the processor sputter and the fan kick in. Saw the bright colored wheel of paralysis and the program crashed. I trashed the preferences and restarted the computer. Later I trashed anything temporal and related to Final Cut Express and zapped the PRAM. I saw on one board that possibly it was the permissions. So I went through and verified and repaired all the disks and permissions. Yet nothing has changed the impeccable crashing. I'm ready to reinstall the software but unfortunately I can't find my disks at all. So anyone got some advice."
    "Here's an update and a whole new set of questions:
    In effort to get back to work and try to finish a project by tomorrow, I called a friend and got his FCE HD disks, did a full uninstall, a full reinstall, and used my password. It started up just fine. I got my plug-ins and settings up and running and then started to work again, thinking all was fine. Opening any recent project made it crash immediately. I worked backwards through my autosave until I found a file that opened (which was hours of editing before all this happened). So I opened it, did some quick rendering. Then this project had a few Motion files that weren't in the project yet, so I tried to import them. Immediately the system crashed. Any Motion file will make it crash. Though, they open fine in Motion. So this makes me wonder if the reason it was crashing before is based on the Motion files which may have been a problem for FCE and its "Profiling For RT Extreme". So maybe why my sequences would make the system crash is based on the Motion files within in them. Hmmm. Any ideas on this Motion sickness?

    Export it as a movie file with the settings consistent with your sequence settings

  • Hello, I need help with my macbook pro. It looks like I cannot install anything anymore. Everytime I try to install a new software, use the migration assistant or click the lock to make changes, it simply does not react.

    Hello, I need help with my macbook pro.
    It looks like I cannot install anything anymore. Everytime I try to install a new software, I simply get stuck during the installation type process. I put in my password, it does accept it, but it does not go any further.
    I tried to reset the password, put no password, repair the permissions, the disk but nothing will do. I nearly got stuck with the log in screen but finally succeeded in disabling it.
    So I thought I might try to create a new account but I cannot click the lock to make changes. It simply refuses to react.
    I am now thinking about using the migration assistant to save all my settings, data and so fourth, but again I get stuck when I have to type in my password. It accepts it but nothing happens...
    I guess it has something to do with the authorization process, but can't find anything on the internet about it... Can you help me out?
    I am running Lion 10.7.3.
    Regards,
    Nicolas.
    (I apologize if any grammatical/structural mistakes were to be found, english is not my mother-tongue. )

    You probably won't like this suggestion, but I suggest you reinstall Lion.
    First, backup your system. Next, reboot your system, press/hold the COMMAND-R keys to boot into the Recovery HD. Select 'Reinstall Mac OS X'. If you purchased Lion as an upgrade to Snow Leopard, the reinstall process will install Lion 10.7.3. If your system came preinstalled with Lion, you might still get Lion 10.7.2. Both installs are a total install of the OS. None of your apps or data will be impacted. Just the OS.

    Thank you so much. I finally got it to work. I don't know why it has to be such an ordeal when it comes to Adobe products!

  • When I go to System Preferences Network "Click the lock to make changes",... it ALWAYS UNLOCKED.   That is even if I have locked it before last shutdown. Should it not stay locked until I unlock it again as administrator?

    From the menu bar, select

    If there's a closed padlock icon in the lower left corner of the preference pane, click it and authenticate to unlock the settings. Enter your login password when prompted.
    Click the Advanced button and check the box marked Require an administrator password to access locked preferences in the sheet that drops down. Then click OK.

  • Ctrl click to layer in a group?

    Is there a hot key combo to ctrl click to layer that's inside a group..not jsut to the group itself.

    With most tools, if you use Ctrl+Alt right click in the document on the
    screen, that will select the layers instead of the groups.

  • Recently I have to right click the layer mask to enable it.

    I never had to to that before. If I don't right click the layer mask and choose enable mask, The history brush tool is disabled. Did I do something wrong?

    You'll have to do a process of elimination to isolate the cause.
    1: Use a two buttom mouse and/or other ones
    2: Check your settings in System Preferences, it's possible you switch the buttons for left handed people.
    3: Check the double click speed
    4: Check your third party mouse software for updates

    When firefox failed to show a webpage, it will show a button "try again" for me to click. Can I make firefox auto-click the button or auto-retry until the webpage shows? And, it's reversible when I untick something in the tools/edit options. It's frustrating when I'm opening a few browsers and all of them fails at the same time that I've to click "try again" for every browser. Thanks.
