Color selection tool has stopped working [was: need help with indesign cs6]

I am working in InDesign cs6 and my color selection tool stopped working.

Do I reply here? I have been creating a newspaper in InDesign cs6 and the color selection box won't work any longer.  It used to work just fine, but now it won't let me access it.
Someone in tech support last night before they went away, was directing me to: Go to Folder from my desktop, and then to Preferences, then to ~/Library/, then to InDesign version 8.0 and en US.  Then we lost contact and I didn't know what to do next, so I still have the problem.

  • Selection tool has stopped working...

    I was making some edits on my project and when I placed a PNG that I had just edited, my selection tool stopped working. I can select a graphic, but as soon as I try to move it around on the page, nothing happens. As we all know, the selection tool is very important, so any help or advice that someone can give would be greatly appreciated. I can keep working by using the free transform tool, but I just want to know how to get the selection tool back to it's original state. Thank you in advance, I am very grateful for your prompt response.
    I will try doing a reboot and see if that helps at all. Will update this thread with my latest impressions.

    Tried the advice in the big yellow banner on the top of this forum page yet?

    It seems your preferences might be corrupted and need resetting.

  • "iTunes has stopped working" - i need help! urgently :(

    Hi, I am having a major problem with my iTunes program. Until about a week ago iTunes was working fine on my Vista Home Premium. One morning this week I got up and tried to turn it on and suddenly a box would pop up after about 10-20 secs after connecting my ipod touch to the computer saying "iTunes has stopped Working" Then another box would pop up saying that when a solution becomes available, it will notify me or something to that effect. Since then I have tried everything I possible could think of like reinstalling itunes and changing my msconfig settings. I have been on countless forums as well looking for someone who has my exact same problem and the solutions presented their are not working for my situation. If anyone could help me get iTunes back working on my system, that would be great. Thanks

    I have exactly the same problem, please, if anyone can help, solution is well received.
    Thanks.

  • Receiving a "FIXMAPI 1.0 MAPI Repair Tool has stopped working" error

    One of our users has Windows 7 Installed. When she emails out attachments, she right clicks it and chooses to "Sent To" and then selects "Mail Recipient".
    It opens and creates a new email fine. Upon pressing SEND it gives a "FIXMAPI 1.0 MAPI Repair Tool has stopped working" It does successfully email. 
    I attached a screenshot.

    Hi,
    Have you tried to repair the Office for the user?
    If that won't work, open the Explorer, and navigate to
    %APPDATA%\Microsoft\Windows\SendTo
    Delete the file named Mail recipient. (Make a backup before you doing that, or you can just move it to the other folders.)
    And then open folder
    C:\Windows
    Find the file named Win.ini, open it with Notepad, find the section that begins with [Mail], and then add the following lines. Some lines may already exist, but you need all of them for this feature.
    [Mail]
    MAPI=1
    CMC=1
    CMCDLLNAME=mapi.dll
    CMCDLLNAME32=mapi32.dll
    MAPIX=1
    MAPIXVER=1.0.0.1
    OLEMessaging=1
    Save it and quit Notepad, restart the Computer.
    See if we can get rid of it.

  • 99 or 100% when it says Premiere Pro has stopped working and needs to close. What's going on?

    I am using the premiere pro trial at the moment and have been trying to render a video for a solid week now. My computer is far more powerful then the recommended specs and yet it still takes 2 hours to attempt to export a 3 minute video (that isn't even heavily edited) and not only that but it will get to 99 or 100% when it says Premiere Pro has stopped working and needs to close. I have used earlier versions of the product before and never had such problems, even my 2 year old laptop could breeze exporting. What's going on?

    Thanks, I'm a bit new to asking for help!
    Version : Premiere Pro CC 2014.2 (8.2)
    It is up to date
    I'm using Windows 8.1 build 9600
    My sources are contained in .mov, .mp4 and .png. The codec I'm trying to use is H.264
    After I set the project to export I got this error message every time it gets to either '99' or '100%' completed. "A problem caused the program to stop working correctly. Windows will close the program and notify you if a solution is available"
    I have never had such a problem with the program which makes me think it might have something to do with a recent update.
    No other notable software was running during the export.
    I don't have any third-party effects or codecs installed.
    I have 64 bit OS and processor, Intel i5 - 4670K quad core clocked at 3.40 GHz. 12 GB of RAM. And a GTX 770 with 2GB of video RAM.
    Unless it was installed in the trial, I do not have the Mercury Playback Engine.
    And finally, it can be noticeably choppy during the preview when it gets to the part I don't have rendered but is fine again for a bit if I replay those parts. A part from being a bit slower then usual, I didn't actually run into a major problem until I started exporting.
    Thank you for the help! Any suggestions?

  • Clone tool has stopped working properly, the sample area doesn't follow the target area?

    Clone tool has stopped working properly, the sample area doesn't follow the target area?

    I understand. I was very unhappy with Adobe when my PSE 11 stoped working properly. I had it for only about 6-7months before I updated my software on my imac and it all went downhill.... Then to add to that my Adobe account was hacked. Adobe never informed me of this situation. I heard through a friend that I should check to see if I was one of the very many who's online accounts were tampered with. I had to reset every single password and username for nearly 30 online accounts to avoid any further tampering with the hackers. And all Adobe suggested was for me to pay for an upgrade to PSE 12 which I did but wasnt very impressed to say the least ( i was on an online chat with them for over 2hours trying to get my PSE 11 issues solved to no avail). Then this sluggish performance starts happening again using the new version PSE 12?. I'm going to stay clear of adobe if I have the option to purchase similiar software from another supplier. I would and will encourage anyone else who has problems with there software to do the same. Older versions should work perfectly fine for ages. I wonder If Adobe is trying to get us all to pay for the monthly subscription option(s) to avoid having issues with older versions of their software. As the subscription option keeps you ontop of all the latest versions... I wouldn't put it past them.
    All the best returned,

  • Oracle BI Administration tool has stopped working

    Just now finished the 11g installation.But im not able to open BI Administrator.Im getting this error.Please help.
    "Oracle BI Administration tool has stopped working
    A problem caused the program to stop working correctly.Please close the program"

    I followed the below steps(taken from this forum) for installing OBIEE11g 64 bit version in a 64 bit machine.Installation completed successfully.But not able to open BI Administration tool.Any suggestions???
    There is not a particular 64bit installation. I think it works like this: if you are using a 64bit JDK the apps server is also running 64 bit.
    You can find the generic jar here: http://www.oracle.com/technetwork/middleware/ias/downloads/wls-main-097127.html and take the generic one (http://download.oracle.com/otn/nt/middleware/11g/wls1033_generic.jar)
    You install this by a command like this (you have to look up the documentation): java -XXm.... .... wls1033_generic.jar
    Then a installer pops up.
    So these were my steps:
    - installed RCU
    - installed 64 bits JDK (jdk-6u21-windows-x64.exe)
    - installed Weblogic (wls1033_generic.jar)
    - installed OBI as "software only"
    - configured OBIi (config.bat you can find in <obi11g home>\Oracle_BI1\bin)
    All together it does not take much longer then the 32bit install. Only some extra steps to do.

  • Just updated my mac from Tiger to Mountain Lion. Loaded Photoshop elements 11 (brand new in the box) and when I try to start it - it comes up saying - Licensing for the product has stopped working contact for help.

    I just updated my mac from Tiger to Mountain Lion.  wiped the computer clean and started fresh Loaded Photoshop elements 11 (brand new in the box) and when I try to start it - it comes up saying - Licensing for the product has stopped working contact for help. in Looking for help I was directed here. what do I do?

    I don't know enough to not follow directions. I bought the software brand new in a sealed from factory box. Had it sitting around until - last week when I deleted flash on my computer and had to upgrade to the new OSX. Mountain Lion doesn't use iPhoto - so I had to go with something else. Since I already had this new - unopened package  I opened it up. Shut down all running programs - inserted the disk and followed all the directions for installation.  Still it didn't work.
    I have now uninstalled it (the proper way) and am going to try again.
    I appreciate your responses.
    Thank you!
    If this doesn't work - I am going to just buy Lightroom.

  • I need help with Indesign.

    I am working on a book project using Indesign 1.5. I have got a new computer. Installation of the Indesign software was problem free but when i open my book project i have a problem that i can not figure out.
    When i put the marker in the middel of a text and pressing the enter tab, to move it down a line,  the text after the marker disappear and a red + showing at the bottom of the text box.
    I will appresiate it a lot if anyone can give me help with this set up problem!

    Try pressing the primary Enter key to the right of the Home Row, not the Enter key in the number pad. If that doesn’t work, look at your paragraph spacing options wherever the paragraph formatting is in that version. Space Above or Space Below might be set too high.
    In the future, please both use a more appropriate subject line and provide your platform. This forum is for people needing help with InDesign, so “I need help with Indesign” is just as helpful as leaving the subject line blank. We’re here to help you.
