CS4- Pictures will not update until I choose a tool

When I try to do anything to a picture the effect or change will not occur until I click on a tool.  Then it will instantly show the change I made.  Doesn't matter what tool I choose and doesn't matter what the change..i.e. sharpen....using a filter etc.  Also, for instance, if I choose unsharp mask (doesn't matter what I choose...this is just an example) the picture will not show in the preview window unless I choose the plus or minus symbol beside the 100% and will not show in the preview until I choose one also.  I've tried this on several different layers.  I already had the latest 11.0.1 I believe and have not updated or installed anything lately.  Did a complete virus scan.  My old drivers were working fine but updated to the new ones to try and see if it would help.....amd/ati radeon 3100.  Used shift + CNTL + ALT to clear my preferences....I have tried it with GL on and off.  In short I have tried everything I can think of.  Basically everything works perfectly except after you make any kind of change you have to click a tool or something else before you see the change.  Even clicking the little eye symbol beside each layer will not let you ...see or hide...that layer until you click the eye symbol and then click a tool. Sometimes on starting the application all the choices are greyed out....even exit....until I click a tool.   Anyone got any ideas?  Thanks for your help.  I don't want to have to resinstall...I am on vacation for the next 3 weeks and would like to be able to edit my pictures.

Did you actually check?  (Help > About Photoshop)
Re-installing  Photoshop from the DVD or saved download (and updating) is not such a mammoth task by the way.
There was a similar snag reported some months ago, maybe a forum search would find the posting.

  • Pot will not update until next poll

    I know, it sounds like a snap delay problem. But, that is not the problem. I am using 5.0 now, but with 3.8.16 this was not a problem. It appears 3.8 put the value in the register and then read it, but 5.0 puts the value in the register and doesn't read it until the next poll. Anybody got any ideas? Thanks, Matt

    ok, I am using a pot as a set point for a water level. The setpoint is stored in a modbus register. Let's say my setpoint is 14. Now, I want to change the setpoint to 15, so I enter 15 in the pot. It changes to 15 and then after several seconds it changes back to 14. It stays at 14 until the next poll, which is 15 minutes, and then changes to 15 permanently. I know there is a delay setting for this problem, but I think the maximum is 65 seconds, so that won't work since our polling cycle is every 15 minutes. Either way that is irrelevant because we didn't have this problem when using ver. 3.8.16. What I believe is happening is that with 3.8.16 the new value was put in the modbus register and then Lookout read the register. With 5.0 it appears that Lookout
    puts the value in the Modbus register but doesn't read that register again until the next poll. Hope this info helps. Thanks, matt

  • I have 4.0.1, with the RealPlayer download plugin. I would love to update, but I understand that the plugin is incompatible with the update. I use the RP download plugin regularly, and will not update until it's compatible. Any info on this?

  • Dreamweaver CS4 Code Coloring not updating

    Hi,
    Recently, when trying to edit the code coloring in Dreamweaver CS4, it will not update the colors after I hit "ok." Anyone know why this might be? I've tried restarting Dreamweaver, clearing the cache, and even seeing if it would work on new documents but none of that helps. Thanks for any help!
    - Matt

    Are you sure you're changing colors for you open document ?
    I have issue with coloring too, but I thought after all this time CS5 will finally have Save option for exactly this issue. So I don't have to repeat this over and over again.

  • When are you going to make GOOGLE TOOLBAR compatible with the latest version of firefox, i will not update to version 8 until its compatible

    Question
    When are you going to make GOOGLE TOOLBAR compatible with the latest version of firefox, i will not update to version 8 until its compatible

    It's not going to happen. Google announced withdrawal of their Google Toolbar.
    Using Google Toolbar features without toolbars - MozillaZine Knowledge Base
    :http://kb.mozillazine.org/Using_Google_Toolbar_features_without_toolbars
    The Google Toolbar will not be updated for Firefox 5 or later Firefox versions. ([http://googletoolbarhelp.blogspot.com/2011/07/update-on-google-toolbar-for-firefox.html reference]) Google finally decided that their [http://kb.mozillazine.org/Problematic_extensions problematic extension] is beyond repair for the little benefit added for Firefox users. Google as with other browsers is eliminating or making toolbars less accessible.
    Consider the features that you are using and see if you can match up features from the list created by Google and by Firefox users.

  • TS2978 I have pictures that will not show until I select them. They show a blank square before selection.

    I have pictures that will not show until I select them. They show a blank square before selection. Can anyone advise me how to fix it?

    Open View Options for the folder in which the picture resides; the Desktop counts as a folder for this purpose.
    In the View Options window, checkmark the item "Show icon preview".
    Note that this setting is not global; it affects only the folder for which it is set.

  • HT1338 Final Cut Pro will not update after new os and compressor will not run until the update is done. System shows no updates available

    Final Cut Pro will not update after new os and compressor will not run until the update is done. System shows no updates available

    Sorry for being unclear.
    When I am using the update in the App Store App, there will be a list of various applications that have updates to be installed (Final Cut Pro will be in this list).  I will already be logged in with the Apple ID I use for everything (my dev account).  I will be able to update all of the other various applications needing updating except for my Final Cut Pro.  When I click the update button next to the FCP update, it will give me an error saying  "This download is not available for this apple ID either because it was bought by a different user or the item was refunded or cancelled"
    I have not had any applications refunded or cancelled and this has only happened since my update to Yosemite.  FCP was working fine until the upgrade.  Is there anything that can be done to fix this?

  • Indd will not update placed images that have type design changes from Ai

    I am creating a book in Indesign ca4 and have placed hundreds of images from Illustrator cs4. These images have unconverted type in them. When i update the font (in FontExplorer X) the files  updates fine in Ai. However, when I go to the Indd file nothing changes. If i click on one of the images and relink then the updated font pops in. Now normally when I change anything else in an Ai file it automatically changes in the Indd file or at least shows that the file needs to be "updated".
    The problem is that I don't want to spend hours clicking each graphic, going to relink find the file, etc. Also, the font change is mearly the same font with a different revision number and it is difficult to even see if the font has actually updated, I would be blind by the time I finished the process of updating each graphic and verifying that it actulally updated.
    I do not want to convert the type to outlines, as this would cause even more time issues.
    I don't understand how the this can happen without a red flag happening somewhere along the process, as the previous font that shows up in Indd no longer exists and the file is not embeded, or converted?

    Peter, thanks for working on this for me I appreciate your heIp. I think what is happening is that when the font is updated it is not acknowledged by the Ai file until it is opened and resaved. Additionally, Ai does not change anything in a file that is resaved unless a change is made. So, what I had to do is open each Ai file and move or nudge some insignificant object or some other change to force an update, then resave the file. Also, if a change is made then undo is selected the file will not update it must be an actual change. Then it will update.

  • Itunes will not open until I reboot

    I'm running a Windows 7 64 bit computer. My music is installed on an external harddrive. Itunes will not open until I reboot my computer. I admit I have a large collection of music but my computer is running 8 gigs of DDR3 ram and a AMD Athlon II x4 630 processor. This should be more than enough to open my music collection. I don't seem to have any problems with any of my other programs. ANY SUGGESTIONS?????

    1. Check to see if this file APSDaemon.exe is the problem here.
    Close your iTunes.
    Press Ctrl-Alt-Del key and choose Task Manager. In the "Processes" Tab, select the file APSDaemon.exe and click End Prosses button, then close the task manager window.
    2.  Go to. START button, type in
    MSCONFIG
    Hit ENTER
    Click STARTUP Tab, Uncheck "Apple Push", click OK.
    Restart Windows.
    3. Rename file "APSDaemon.exe' into "APSDaemon1.exe" from this location:
    32bit Windows  C:\Program Files\Common Files\Apple\Apple Application Support\
    64bit Windows  C:\Program Files (x86)\Common Files\Apple\Apple Application Support\
    (Take note that this is a temporary fix until Apple comes up with an update to resolve.  This will also disable the capability of WIFI SYNC)

  • CS6 Using RGB Color Corrector effect, Reference Monitor will not update?

    When the current tine indicator is on a clip using RGB Color Corrector effect, the Reference window will not update.
    And not only doesn't it update the data on the graph, but if you change the type of scope (Display Mode) (e.g. from RGB Parade to Vectorscope), that also doesn't change until you move the CTI to view a clip without the RGB Color Corrector effect on.
    Anybody can help me to fix this problem, it is very important to me, many thanks!!!

    Here the appropriate quotation from the help:
    Gang the Reference Monitor and Program Monitor
    You can gang the Reference Monitor and the Program Monitor so that both always monitor the same frame.
    Do one of the following:
    In the Reference Monitor, click the Gang To Program Monitor button .
    In the Reference Monitor’s panel menu, choose Gang To Program Monitor.
    In the Program Monitor’s panel menu, choose Gang To Reference Monitor.
    Both Monitors show the same frame. Moving the playhead in either the Reference Monitor, the Program Monitor, or the Timeline will move the playheads in the other two to the same frame.

  • My iPhone 4s iOS 7.0.4 will not update music or apps from iTunes 11.1.3.  this was true of my pc and the new MacPro.

    My iphone 4s ios 7/0/4 will not update music or apps from itunes 11.1.3.  this was true with my pc since ios 7.0.3 even with update 7.0.4 and now continues with my new MacPro also runing itunes 11.1.3.   as most state in previous threads, syncs all non itunes related data with no issue and appears to work correctly on itunes data but then hangs on the last step of updating until it times out.  i have tried marking specific music to transfer, setting up new playlist, deleting some old playlist on phone but stopped short of restoring my phone back to new due to the amount of non itunes data that i will lose.  The itunes setup on the macpro was completely with the download of all music from a previous external backup and the creation of new playlist - on the first sync with existing phone it did ask to overwrite all phone itunes data with macpro itunes data which i did accept - no different result - no changes on phone.

    Basic troubleshooting from the User's Guide is reset, restart, restore (first from backup then as new).  Try each of these in order until the issue is resolved. 
    If the problem continues, take the device to Apple for evaluation and possible replacement.

  • Ipod will not update!!! Error (-50)  HEEEELLLLLLP!!!!!

    My ipod will not update to manual when I click the box to update manual. The box under is checked as it should be but after about 40sec of "Updating Ipod" an error box pops up and says "Ipod could not update unknown error (-50)". In addition I am no longer able to play the songs from my ipod through my comupter. I am only able to play songs on my computer already through itunes. Please help.
    HP 2225   Other OS  

    im getting kind of the same problem. i got a new computer with vista on it, and i plugged in my ipod with all the songs on it, and i thought if i set it to put all the songs on my computer it would erase the ones currently on it. i started getting alot of errors saying there wasnt enough space on my 8gb nano, which there should have been enough space but since it wasnt deleting the music already on it.
    after trying a few different setting i decided to try the restore button and it said it couldnt restore. so i closed itunes went to computer and into my ipod, enabled it so i could see hidden folders and then deleted all the F1, F2,F3 and so on folders and tried an update and it worked.
    but something really strange then happened in itunes, it was on my purchased playlist instead of having just my purchased music it had three copies of all my purchased music, but there wasnt three files of each. itunes did this on my previous computer but it made new copies of the files.
    it then worked just like it did on my old computer, but i noticed it wasnt working properly went i got all the album artwork and my new purchased music. now i dont really know what to do, do what i did before and delete the music manually or just wait untill the update in a "few weeks"
    i hope this has been helpful to anyone else with similar problems.

    Wondershare will not update their iDraft App, on the App Store, for compatibility issues due to iOS 4.2! iDraft costs $2.99, and should be pulled from the app store. An app should not be sold, until the issue is addressed. It's wrong, and I want to see some progress, instead of emails saying that we are heading in a different direction... Then return email back saying that we are now working on the issue, and I could get a discount on Wondershare apps...
