Could not use history brush because the history state lacks a corresponding channel Please HELP CS6

Everytime I try to use my history brush, that error pops up and I have no clue why. If I try to just open a blank document and use the brush it does not give me this error and I can "use" the brush but you cant see anything on the project. Anyways, so when this error happens im trying to do a project and say I place a file(picture) into the project and this is the very first thing I do. I place it, then I size the image down some. I then make a new layer to use the brush for behind the picture and then this is when I get the error. I have no clue what is wrong can someone please help me I'm desperate:(.

The way you've described it, one gets the distinct impression you do not have a clue as to what the history brush does and how to use it.
You need to read up on it.  Read the Help files and google for tutorials.
First you need to create an image (with actual pixels in it), edit it as desired, then make a snapshot of the edited image, then target the snapshot with the history brush tool, then go back in the History panel to the step before your edits and selectively paint your edits in with the History Brush.

  • "Could not use move tool because the target channel is hidden"

    I tried removing the quick mask in the channel side bar and also uncheck "edit in quick mask mode" but I still cannot stop the pop up saying "Could not use move tool because the target channel is hidden". I cannot draw any objects or move them. What should I do?

    You are getting an error because you are in  "Quick mask edit mode". There are few ways to exit. You can, for example, use [Q] button or delete layer as well.
    All have been listed on blog.i-evaluation.com, article: “Could not use move tool because the target channel is hidden” – Photoshop Warning
    Hope that helps!
    ps. My first post on adobe forum. Hope I helped someone.

  • Photoshop Elements 6:   Could not use type tool because the file could not be found

    Using Adobe Photoshop Elements 6.0 well for a while.
    Tried to use the Type Tool to overlay text and obtained this error:
    Could not use the type tool because the file could not be found
    After research, I reset all tools, tried to repair (failed: insert disc one), and then removed/re-installed.  Still have the same problem.
    Are the system fonts corrupt or is an Adobe .ini file suspect?
    Other reports have suggested using a 3rd-party font manager to inspect/disable fonts.
    First wanted to post this error here for feedback/recommendations
    Any suggestion on how to recover the Type Tool functionality?

    Adobe Photoshop Elements Repair Workaround
    When trying to repair the well-known:  insert disc one, error occurred.  Was able to successfully repair the installation by dragging the entire Adobe Photoshop Elements directory from the original CD-ROM onto a hard drive and executing locally.  Seems it does not like repairing over the CD-ROM but it works correctly if the install source is on disc...

    John,
    Yesterday, I decided to completely remove all Adobe products:  PSE 6, Premiere 4, Reader, ActiveX plugins & legacy/old uninstalled product directories that Adobe has left turd-lets around including old Acrobat 3/6 directories.  Used A/D Software to remove all adobe products and then followed your instructions AND the instructions on Adobe's support web site to manually remove these products.
    It boiled down to manually removing the entire Adobe directory in Progam Files, "saving" the entire Adobe directory structure in each users (3) Document and Settings in the Application Data and Local Settings (as instructed by you and Adobe) and rebooting.
    I also saved the local All Users "configuration" database/cache that contained the Tag and other information to make sure the system was clean
    This included following the manual Regit instructions to remove legacy Adobe registry hives.  I deleted all keys for all Adobe product trees that I could locate (following instructions from Adobe).
    Reboot
    Scheduled a CHCKDSK on all drives and rebooted
    Dragged my complete image library to an archive location and deleted them on the C: drive
    Did a complete system Defrag
    Re-installed Adobe and alas still have the same problem with the Type Tool....
    The only thing I did not do was selectively remove the "fonts" because various instructions seemed to indicate many are "required" by the windows or other applications and I was not really sure how to identify which ones were safe to remove w/o affecting the core system..  I'll have to re-read these instructions next.
    Microsoft has a "Font Validator" tool, but that only checks 1 font at a time and you have to read the "results".  May look for other tools.
    Will be able to check the font structure this weekend since it will take some research before I'm comfortable just removing fonts in trial/error mode.  I'll need to make a backup image of my computer before I start this (just in case).
    Thanks for follow-ups too!

  • "Could not save x.jpg because the file is already in use or was left open...

    Win 7 pro 64, CS5.0 using InDesign 7.0.4 and Photoshop 12.0.4 x64.
    Using InDesign to create a manuscript with images. Right click on image to "Edit Original"
    Opens image in Photoshop. Make changes, go to save.
    Error message "Could not save x.jpg because the file is already in use or was left open by another application"
    Using a free utility called Unlocker Assistant, it shows that the file has been locked by InDesign
    The workaround is to then use Unlocker Assistant to unlock the image in in the Links folder, but this is a pain and it is happening too frequently.
    Putting in that error message I get no google matches.
    Anyone know why Indesign is locking the image, when it is the InDesign program that is supposed to be sending it to Photoshop for editing so it can be changed and then overwrite the original image?
    Note that it is not consistent but I cannot find any pattern to determine why it sometimes fails and other times allows the altered image to be saved.

    You will get a quicker response to post this in the InDesign Fourm http://forums.adobe.com/community/indesign/indesign_general

  • "Could not save a copy because the file is already in use..."

    I have read previous discussions of this issue, but nobody suggested a solution. Sometimes when I use the Save As command to save an open file with the same name as an existing Photoshop file that is not currently open, I get the dreaded message: "Could not save a copy because the file is already in use or was left open."
    When this happens, I have to save my open file using a different filename, then change the name in the Finder after manually deleting the original file with that name. This happened occasionally in Photoshop CS3, and is now happening more frequently in CS4. If no one can offer a solution, can someone please tell me if there is a way to officially submit a bug report? The simple truth is that Photoshop costs way too much for a well-known problem like this one to be hanging around version after version. Adobe really needs to fix this and I'd like to tell them so. Thanks!

    I've run into this and I'm convinced it's not Adobe. Whenever I've gotten around the problem it's often something from Apple that got in the way.
    I use a simple workaround when Finder/QuickLook isn't letting go of the file. First use a free utility like TinkerTool or Onyx to turn on the Quit command in the Finder. Whenever the Finder gives you trouble, if closing the Finder window in question doesn't solve it, just do the ol' Command-Q. It's a little faster (and maybe safer?) than force-relaunching the Finder. This usually releases files for me when all else fails; it also often cures the annoying "can't eject the volume because it's in use" messages when you've already quit every program you can find.
    There's the question of why Photoshop and not others; I'm not an engineer but I think the sheer size of Photoshop files is a factor. In one instance I noticed that quicklookd was using a lot of RAM, and QuickLook has been implicated by an earlier post in this thread. It isn't unusual for a Photoshop file to be very large compared to other types of documents. It's possible that when QuickLook hits a large Photoshop file, and it does its normal thing of generating a big preview for it, it could get tied up reading that huge image long enough to block another program. Sometimes it seems like QuickLook just hangs on them. When it happens, you can try looking at Activity Monitor to see if something like QuickLook, Spotlight, or some other program is using an unusual amount of CPU or RAM.
    Apple Mail (at least in 10.5) is another major offender by the way. If you attach a file to Apple Mail it will hang on to it as "open" even after you remove the attachment. Other programs will not be able to write to the file that was attached or formerly attached. Nothing short of quitting Apple Mail will make it let go of the file. You'll notice it when you delete a JPEG, PDF, Word doc (definitely not just Photoshop) attachment because you realize you need to make a change and attach it again. Attempting to export an updated one over the old one is blocked until Apple Mail is quit.
    In my experience I think what Chris says is true.

  • "Could not save (file name) because the file is already in use or left open."

    Hello,
    When I tried save as a file, I get an error msg:
    "Could not save (file name) because the file is already in use or left open."
    The file is not open anywhere accept Photoshop.
    Mac Pro, OSX 10.5.6
    Photoshop CS4.
    I searched the forum but could not find anything even though i'm sure someone already asked it.
    would love to get a solution for that.
    thank you,
    shlomit

    There is a problem with both Photoshop and InDesign, then we can blame wich ever it is.
    1. I open a .psd file in Photoshop CS4 by double clicking it in Bridge
    2. This image is placed on a page in a open InDesign document.
    3. Doing some changes in Photoshop on the image.
    4. Trying to save and get this error message (this topics subject)
    5. Deleting the image from the page in ID doc, it is the only one in the document.
    6. Can't still save file.
    7. Closing ID completely and now I am able to save the file.
    I tried turning of Live preflight in Indegisn but that didn't help.
    So probably the fault is InDesign or the MacOS. I didn't have this problem with CS3. It is a stupid problem because this type of workflow is pretty common and one would expect it to be solved by now.

  • Could not complete your request because the file is already in use or was left open by another application

    the message :could not complete your request because the file is already in use or was left open by another application, comes up when i try to open a specific file in PS cs5. nothing is open and i have restarted my imac already and still no solution

    Well, then you do want your layered file back and the nice thing about Macs, Time Machine does keep hourly backups on your Mac. You should be able to enter Time Machine and restore that file.
    I had hoped opening your file in another app might relase it so you could open it in PS.

  • Could not save my_file.psd because the file is already in use or was left open by another app"

    Since some time ago I often get this message when trying to save my PSD file: "could not save my_file.psd because the file is already in use or was left open by another application", whereas there's no application that uses the file in reality. What could cause this problem?

    What could cause this problem?
    If I remember correctly posibilities include the OS, anti-virus software, … and if you work across a network you are basically on your own anyway as Adobe specifically discourages this.
    What are your OS, program version, …?

    I am trying to import developed images from LightRoom 5 Photoshop 6 for further editing.  I am receiving this message and the images will not open.....'Could not open scratch file because the file is locked, or you do not have necessary access permissions or another program is using the file.  Use the 'Properties' command in the Windows Explorer to unlock the file. How do I fix this?  I would greatly appreciate it if you would respond with terms and procedures that a computer ignorant user, such as me, will understand.   Thanks.

    Have you tried restoring the Preferences yet?

  • I deleted iTunes when it said "iTunes could not back up iPhone because the backup could not be saved on the computer"and now it wont let me install it again and keeps saying "itunes cannot be installed because the file cannot be found in the cabinet "

    iTunes told me to delete my backup folder when I was having problems syncing my phone to my computer. After that it wouldn't work at all. After trying and trying I deleted iTunes when it said "iTunes could not back up iPhone because the backup could not be saved on the computer"and now it wont let me install it again and keeps saying "itunes cannot be installed because the file cannot be found in the cabinet ". What the **** itunes? Nothing is working!!
    I wanted to update my iTunes so I could sync my phone to my computer and update my phones software so I can use the latest apps that need a 4.2 or higher.
    This is not fun for me so if anyone knows what I can do to fix this please help. Is it possible to download the "cabinent file" with the lastest iTunes?
    Thank you.

    I doubt that corrupt files are the problem. It is more likely a space or permissions issue. Is the hard-drive on which iTunes is stored close to capacity? Do you (or the particular user profile you have logged on with) have the requisite permissions to save to that drive?
    Otherwise, do you get an error code? This might point us in the right direction.

  • Error Message - "could not complete your request because the preset contains invalid data"

    I am trying to open a file, and every time I do it comes up with the following error message:
    "Could not complete your request because the preset contains invalid data"
    I am using Photoshop CS4 on a Macbook Pro running Snow Leopard 10.6.2.
    I have tried:
    - restarting my mac
    - opening different files created at different times
    - deleting photoshop from my app folder and the app support folder from my /username/library/application support/adobe/ folder and copied them back from a Time Machine backup from a few days ago.
    I was using Photoshop all day today with absolutely no problems. I have searched Google and this forum and have come up short. No one has this exact error anywhere.
    Any help? Thanks so much in advance!

    The one thing you didn't do is reset your Photoshop preferences.
    Most likely the preferences got corrupted, and reference a corrupt preset.

  • I'm trying to load video file into CS6 I keep getting error message: 'Could not complete you request because the DynamicLink Media Server is not available.' No Idea what to do next. Help please.

    I'm using CS6 Extended. My OS is "Windows 7 home premium.
    Can no longer load video files into CS6 for edited I keep getting error message:
    'Could not complete your request because the DynamicLink Media Server is not available.'
    Don't know what this means. Until just now I was able to load videos without any problems. Now I'm getting this message. Any thoughts?

    Hi Mylenium,
    upfront:
    I hope I won't be marked as spam now, since I am posting on a few relevant discussions now to this topic.
    However, I really would like to ask the people who have experienced this problem to see if they were able to solve it.
    Now the real deal:
    I posted a question in this discussionDynamicLink Media Server won't let me import video for video frames to layers anymore.
    The linked discussion is a lot younger, which is why I posted there first.
    I also put in information on the steps that I have tried and my computer specifications.
    I am experiencing this problem for a while now and hope you and jones1351may be able to help out.
