Colour brick eye dropper not working

After 3.3 update the adjustments Color Brick eye dropper will not select a new color.  I have reinstalled 3.3 but no change.  My system is a good stable system with no issues at all.  Anyone else seeing this?

Hi Stewart,
I can only guess.
Since the update I notice as I browse my pictures that they take longer to render and
I observe quite the opposite; I now can process large scans that where impossible to tackle before, see e.g. my post here:
Aperture 3.3: Improved handling of large scans?
Aperture appears to be much faster, and I saw others report similar observations; I assume that Aperture now has a more efficient memory management and probaby requires much more RAM than previously. How much RAM does your iMac have? Can you upgrade?
Also you need plenty of free disk space. If the disk get full, multimedia applications will be slowed down.
Ask SierraDragon, he is our resident hardware guru!
I half expected version 4 because the Adobe suites have been refreshed and Aperture 3 is old ish now.  Not that I am complaining,  Aperture is a great piece of software and I would struggle without it!
I agree, and I am still hoping for Aperture 4 arriving with the Mountain Lion
Cheers

  • Eagle eyes web not working iOS 6

    i updated my iphone 3g to ios 6, i have a problem because eagle eyes web not working, appear message that push video is not compatible

    I would do as what Diavovex suggested:
    Settings >>> General >>> Reset >>> Reset all Settings.
    Once you have completed this, ipad will reboot, connect again to your Wi-Fi and then try to Reset imessage again. Just make sure your Apple ID and password are ok ...... try log in to Apple Store and if this is not an issue then I don't see why imessage cannot connect?

  • Red Eye Removal not working properly

    I'm having a problem with the red eye tool. I've done a search of this problem which returned no results.
    I have three similar photographs, i.e, taken a few seconds a part at a wedding ceremony. I've corrected the red eye problem on the first file. However, the red eye "dots" REMAIN when I switch to the next files. If I select the red eye tool, I even get the location ovals overlaying the new picture.
    Bug?
    Eric

    > It only works on red eye, not bright eye, steel eye, green eye, or any other color.
    How about Evil Eye? 8-}
    Actually I've had the same problem with Red Eye Removal not working properly. Problem is intermittent and the eye was for sure red.

  • Red Eye Removal not working

    I am using 1.3.1 and started out using the original version of lightroom that was released. I have really enjoyed lightroom. However, the red eye removal tool which worked when I started using lightroom is no longer working. I am having to pull all red eye corrections into "Elements" and that is annoying. When I select the red eye tool and click on the red eye all I get is a beep. I have tried clicking and dragging to select the exact size and that does not work either, just a beep. Does anyone have an answer to my problem?

  • Red Eye reduction not working

    Iphoto 11
    Red eye reduction does not work, auto is not selectable and circling eye and clikcingh does do anything.
    I have trashed the plist file, repaired permissions and rebuilt the iphoto database. Nothing fixed the problem.
    ANy other ideas I can try ?
    all software updates applied , 10.7.3

    As a Test:
    Hold down the option (or alt) key and launch iPhoto. From the resulting menu select 'Create Library'
    Import a few pics into this new, blank library. Is the Problem repeated there?

  • Why won't my eye dropper tool work?

    What I want to happen:
    1) select a path or text block with the direct path selector tool
    2) select eye dropper tool
    3) use eye dropper to apply appearance from a different path to selected path/text
    When I try steps 1-3, this happens:
    4) the appearance shows up in the appearance panel as having been applied to the path/text in step 1 but the path itself doesn't change appearance. 
    Things to note:
    1) I just switched from cs6 to creative cloud subscription
    2) I've already been on the phone with adobe for hours-on-end and they have been unable to help even after allowing them remote controlled access of my computer.
    I'm really hoping someone else has ran into this issue and could lend some help because this process is very important to my workflow.  My productivity is dropping like crazy because of this.

    How is the eye dropper tool set up?
    Please show a screenshot: text object and appearance panel.

  • Red eye tool not working

    Since I reinstalled Aperture 3 on my new iMac, I cannot get the red eye tool to work. I get the circles around the eyes, but nothing happens... I looked for settings or something, but found nothing to solve my problem...

    Yes, I am using the right tool. I have been using this tool in Aperture for a long time. In fact, it works fine on my older iMac. I imported the same photo in both iMacs. It corrects fine on my old iMac (2008), but it does nothing on my new 2013 iMac.
    Both are running the same version of Aperture (3.5) and both systems are also running on Mavericks.
    I noticed a difference in the build of the digital camera RAW, but I would be surprised that that would influence a feature like the red eye tool...

  • LR 1.2 - white balance dropper not working

    When I click the white balance dropper, I get the magnifying glass. When I move it, the white balance in the navigator updates real time but if I click on my image it zooms instead of setting white balance. This worked fine with 1.1.
    Should I uninstall 1.2 and reinstall 1.1? I'm not sure how to go back to 1.1.

    I've had that happen a couple of times for no obvious reasons. I've also noted some general 'cursor confusion' but, again, I can't cause the problem.
    It's a minor annoyance.

  • Red eye function not working correctly - big black spot

    On my old mac I never had a problem with this feature. Now, when I hit the red eye button, a green dot appears on the icon and I get the croos hairs on the screen. I select the eye to change and it leaves a huge black/grey spot round the eye. Looks like an ink spot and it's quite large. What is going on here? Thanks
    Matthew

    Judy:
    To get closer just move the slider at the bottom to the right. Then you'll need to hold down the space bar to drag the picture till the area you want is in view.
    Regarding the green dot, that's a new one. Try deleting the iPhoto preference file, com.apple.iPhoto.plist, that's in your User/Library/Preferences folder. Also emptying the User/Library/Caches/iPhoto folder wouldn't hurt either.
    Do you Twango?
    TIP: For insurance against the iPhoto database corruption that many users have experienced I recommend making a backup copy of the Library6.iPhoto database file and keep it current. If problems crop up where iPhoto suddenly can't see any photos or thinks there are no photos in the library, replacing the working Library6.iPhoto file with the backup will often get the library back. By keeping it current I mean backup after each import and/or any serious editing or work on books, slideshows, calendars, cards, etc. That insures that if a problem pops up and you do need to replace the database file, you'll retain all those efforts. It doesn't take long to make the backup and it's good insurance.
    I've written an Automator workflow application (requires Tiger), iPhoto dB File Backup, that will copy the selected Library6.iPhoto file from your iPhoto Library folder to the Pictures folder, replacing any previous version of it. You can download it at Toad's Cellar. Be sure to read the Read Me pdf file.

    The graphic card is new (imac 27") and GL is turned on.  I'm sure becuase I got the preview working for enlarging the cursor.
    Any help appreciated. thanks.

    Exactly how did you get the cursor to show up larger?I have a feeling in this lies the answer.
    What ever you did try to undo it and see if that works.

  • Eye dropper in photo filter not working

    The eye dropper is still not behaving correctly (after years of history with this same problem from what I can gather on these forum discussions).
    I'm on the latest 14.2.1 Ps CC. Both 32 and 64 bit give the same problem.  Turning off my video card does not make a difference.  Resetting all my tools/presets does not make a difference.  The eye dropper only works when dealing with a background layer, not with the photo filter layer.   It doesn't sample the color clicked on, nor does it show the sampler ring.  It forces the photo filter color to white, regardless of the color sampled.
    Any help would be greatly appreciated!

    Can you post some screen captures of what you describing.  Include the layers palette with all layers thumbnails showing. A Photo filter layer has no actual pixels its an adjustment layer which is logically clipped to the layer its above. When I try using the eye dropper it seems to pick up the color it produced on the layer its logically clipped to. However if the layer has no pixels in the area sampled nothing is picked up and the foreground swatch doesn't change. Does you image layer have any empty pixels ones that have been cut out and your set to sample current layer,
    More testing show if set to current layer and your sampling on the adjustment layer it acts like the adjustment layer like a composite layer and lower layer colors will be picked up if the image layers pixels are empty.  Which layer is the target when you sample the image layer or the adjustment layer and what sampling mode are you using?
    It is also not clipped to the lower layer I was wrong it seem to be for I was using Black and White background layers.  When I change to Yellow I could set it was not clipped but could be clipped and if I sampler over an empty area I would get white not  nothing i would get white.
    So two things seem strange to me when you try to target the adjustment layer the adjustment layer's layer mask is targeret instead of the layer it takes a second click to targer the layer. And the other odd thing is when cliped if you sample over empty pixels you get white rather then no color change.

  • Eye Dropper Tool (Color Picker Tool) not working correctly - Premiere CC - Windows 8 - Multiple Displays

    I'm running Windows 8, Premiere CC 2014 with two monitors. The eye dropper tool (color picker tool) isn't working correctly. It is selecting colors that are not the colors being hovered over. I've reasearched and see solutions to the problem when occurring with Mac, but do not see a solution for Windows. When I disconnect the second monitor, the eye dropper tool works correctly (as described by Mac users). I deleted any profiles for the montors that weren't the same, and still having the issue. I've also tried putting the source monitor on the second monitor, and tried sampling color from there... same result.

    Hello All,
    Problem solved...I reset all tools in the Tool Preset window. Seems to be working.
    Hope this helps someone...
    Cheers!
