Color Adjust Filter and Paint Bucket not available in CS3

I recently noticed that Colors in the Filter menu is not available in my install of Illustrator CS3. I also noticed that the Paint Bucket tool is missing. Both appear to be in the Plug-ins folder in their respective folders (Illustrator Filters and Tools) but are not available in the program. I am using Mac OS X version 10.4.11 on a PowerPC G4 running at 1.6 GHz with 1 GB of SDRAM. I have the Adobe Creative Suite 3 Web Premium package.
There may be other problems with my install, but these are the two things I notices. Can anyone shed some light on why this is happening and how to fix it? I tried a re-install, but to no avail.

Basically yes, but not quite. You may want to review the new features. The paint bucket was removed because it was, well, pointless in most cases. THe Live Paint tool is much more useful than the old Paint Bucket.

Coloring issues with magic wand tool and paint bucket tool, leaves uncolored areas near drawn lines

Photoshop CS6 doesn't color properly. Whetever I use brush tool or elliptical marquee tool to do the lines (with brush tool I use Hard Round, not soft), it doesn't color the whole area when i fill them with color. This happens with both magic wand tool AND paint bucket tool, there is always a small uncolored area near the lines. I have tolerance on 30, and anti-alias, contiguous and sample all layers boxes checked. (this setting worked on my old CS3) I have tried tolerance from 0 to 100, no difference. I have also tried unchecking the boxes I just mentioned, still no difference. I hope there is a solution for this, because it is tedious to always go to the Select - Modify - Expand every time I need to color some area. So how do I fix this problem? I use seperate layers for lines and colors, like I have always done with other Photoshop versions. Even in school where they have CS5 those normal settings work.

Hello Chris,
I don't think this is a "user error". I think Adobe should be able to program a state of the art paint bucket, which is capable to get this done right.
Other applications are able to get this done right.
Please don't fall into a programmer's ignorance ("this is done right by definition") but listen to us artists and improve this unintuitive behavior. Add something like "ignore transparent pixels", because this doesn't even work if you draw on an empty layer.
Thank you!

Paintbrush and paint bucket use wrong color in PE6 for Mac

Hi. I am trying to use either the paintbrush or paint bucket tool to add a solid color in a layer. I choose a foreground color and apply the tool and instead of using the color I've chosen, it uses an old color I used several photos ago. (I chose the old color with the eyedropper tool in case that matters). No matter what I do, it seems that this old color is stuck in both the paintbrush and paint bucket. I've tried choosing a different color with the eyedropper, and although that color appears as the foreground color, the old "bad" color still applies when I use either the paintbrush or bucket tool. I have reset the tools (no luck), rebooted photoshop (no luck), tried switching back to the default (B&W) colors (still no luck). Does anyone have any suggestion what I can try? I'm new to the forum and have tried searching for this issue, but can't find it. I apologize if this is an old issue. Thank you for your help.

Hi, thank you for this suggestion. I will try it, and it also sounds useful for lots of quirky things. In the meantime, I tried something else that solved my problem. I reset the eyedropper tool and picked another color with it and it cleared it out. I had reset all the tools, but somehow it didn't work until I did this. Thank you for your help.

My pc crashed and I lost all my pictures and music that was stored on the pc. Now i have a new pc and when i connect to itunes using my password all my music and photos are not available. they appear to be lost.

my pc crashed and i lost all my pictures and music that was stored on the pc. now i have a new pc and when i log into itunes all my music and photos are not available. I guess i dont understand the pupose of itunes and its worth. I thought it backed up all my photos and music, but apparently not. So what do I use so that when i lose data on my pc i can retrieve it again at a later date or after a crash?/

Your content will only be where you put it. It has always been very basic to always maintain a backup copy of your computer.
You can transfer itunes purchases from your iphone: File>Device>Transfer purchases.
You can import your pics taken with the iphone as you would with any digital camera.
You can e-mail the other pics to yourself, they will never be of the original quality.
You can out a unique contact and calendar entry on the computer. You should get the option to merge the data when you sync.

Color correction filter and keyframes

After lots of projects in FCE, I should know this!
I have a clip with a color correction filter and keyframes at either end of the clip.
Question: If I break the clip in two, am I correct that the color correction filter and keyframes are no longer shared by the two clips? Changes made to one clip's keyframes no longer effect the other clip's color correction settings?

That's correct.

Simply put, I do not like like the new color coding "dots" and I do not like having to press the Command key before double clicking to open files in a new window. How hard would have been to include the old version of these two features?

You should probably post your question about burning a DVD from Premiere Pro in the Premiere Pro forum

HT1657 i rented a movie on my account on a friends apple TV 3 days ago, never watched it, and now I'm logged back in and it's not available to me... Don't I have 30 days to watch?

i rented a movie on my account on a friends apple TV 3 days ago, never watched it, and now I'm logged back in on my macbook and it's not available to me... Don't I have 30 days to watch? Is there somewhere you can find rented movies that I'm not seeing?

I had the same issue with my apple tv 3rd generation. I rented Sinister and selected the "rent and watch now" option. Half way through the movie I accidentally pressed the menu button. When I looked for the rented movie on my apple tv I could not find it. Not even above the movie pannel where "purchased" and "top movies" comes up on the main menu. the apple tv suggests to go to settings>downloads but I don't have that option. I did go to settings> itunes store> check rentals but that didnt work either. It took too long to even check. Thank you because this SOLUTION worked great.
SOLUTION: How to reset apple tv 3 3rd generation to view rented movies:on the apple tv remote: press and hold "menu" to go to the main menu. Select SETTINGS> GENERAL >RESET >RESET ALL SETTINGS. After the apple tv resets, input all your information again and your rented movies should be visible when you cruise above the "movies" section. THANK YOU!!
Apple needs to solve this issue because honestly it took me 3 hours and a half to watch a movie that only lasted 2 BECAUSE I wast trying to solve the issue, reseting and all. blahh.

Hi Miguel,
We don't have any record of you subscribing to ExportPDF. Did you sign up via the Reader mobile app? If you did, you would need to contact Apple about your subscription.
And, if you haven't subscribed yet, but would like to, you should be able as long as you have an email address and credit card billing address in one of the countries listed in this document: Countries where ExportPDF is available for purchase.
Best,
Sara
