CS5 not recognising CS3 colour sampler points

Neither 32-bit nor 64-bit CS5 (run in Win 7-64bit Ultimate) are recognising (displaying) colour sampler points I created and saved in layered images processed with CS3. These colour sampler points are all displayed quite happily in 32-bit CS4, but they are just not visible in CS5, no matter what I do in terms of turning on or off one or more layers, or selecting (giving the focus to) any one or more layers.
This is pretty annoying because it means that I can't go back and readjust Black, White, Neutral or Skin Colour tones at the same precise locations previously and carefully chosen, sometimes after considerable experimentation, to achive what, at the time, seemed like optimal results.
Anyone else experiencing this anomoly, or know what might be causing it?

Thanks for the response Mylenium.
Found the answer to this "non-problem" (Duh!) myself. The colour sampler points are only visible provided you dont' have certain tools (like the Marquee Tool, and some others) active. All is well afterall and my CS3-made colour sampler points are, and have always been, visible in CS5.

COLOUR MANAGEMENT IN PHOTOSHOP CS2 AND COLOUR SAMPLE POINTS

I always place colour sample points on my images in order to monitor colour changes as I adjust. When I soft proof (using using Perceptual rendering),I go to the Information pallette and right click on the colour sample points.I then choose Proof option on the basis that this should tell me the colour of the sample points when I print to my chosen printing paper profile.
However,this seems not to work. If I then make a new document (say 100 by 100 pixels) and fill it with the Proof colour,as indicated in the Information pallette as described above,it bears no resemblance to the image that I have soft proofed as seen on my display (Contrtol Y). Hard to explain all this in a message,but can anyone assist?
Grateful,

Good day!
What exactly do you mean?

Colour cartridges suddenly not recognised

From time to time my printer decides it will not recognise the colour cartridge any longer. I use 75xl. This is despite the cartridge having worked perfectly up until that point, and definitely not being empty. I take it out & put it back in and the messages alternate between the cartridge being incompatible, or missing. When this has occurred previously I have put in a new cartridge and it's resumed working. I then put the old cartridge it previously woulrn't recognise back in & away it goes until the next time. It's just happened again, after successfully printing a couple of pages. I put my spare cartridge in and it wont recognise that either now. As there is a missing cartridge it wont print at all. not even in black & white. I've really had it with this printer, and the lack of support from HP. My printer is out of warranty, but still printing/scanning/ photocopying just fine .. when it will recognise the colour cartrigde. any ideas?? Or should i just go & buy another brand printer?

Hi Anthea White,
I'm sorry you are having issues with the print recognizing colour cartridges. There is actually circuitry between the ink cartridges and the circuitry in the printer. I'm attaching a document that describes how to clean these electrical contacts. Sometimes ink or dust prevents a connection from being made.
I hope this will help you!

Plug-in not recognised CS5

I am updating my CS3 plug-in to CS5. I have it all compiling and linking but when I put the plug-in into the plug-ins folder and launch InDesign CS5 (Mac) it get an alert that says "Adobe InDesign does not recognise Elateral.InDesignPlugin as a valid plug-in. Please reinstall the Elateral.InDesignPlugin plug-in and restart InDesign.". Is there some new resource that I need to add or a new setting or a new callback I need to implement? I have put a break point in SDKPluginEntrypoint.cpp at IPlugIn* GetPlugIn() but it does not break which suggests that the runtime linkage is not working and the plug-in is not even being loaded. Any suggestions?

The Folders in your last post are part of the differences between CS3/4 and CS5 I was talking about. I asume it's the same game on Mac as on Windows.
Just generate a new project with dollyxs and add your source files to the project. The Folders you listed should then be created automatically.
As i wrote the other way is to modify your project file according to SDK samples. If you do that those folders should be created at time you compile the project too.
You can find infos about the same problem on Windows (I had 1 month before you, yes, "thank" you Adobe) in this post:

Sample point of Healing Brush tool in CS5

Hi.
In my previous version of PS (CS2) when using the Healing Brush tool the sample point remained in the same place after alt-clicking - irrelevant of where I moved around the image - this is great for spotting large areas of similiar colours as you know the sample area is clean.
With CS5, the sample spot seems to move with the mouse - as in, it always stays the same distance from the mouse as you move around.
Is there a setting I can change that will make it work similar to CS2?
Thanks

Uncheck aligned and see if that helps.

CS5 Bridge does not recognise Nikon D 800 Raw Files

I have Photoshop CS5 Version 12.0 (x64). Photoshop recognises Nikon D 800 Raw files BUT
Bridge does not. I have tried updates but my Apple Mac Pro does not recognise them

That would mean that you have the ACR plug-in version 6.7 or 7.1 in the wrong place.
You can only have one version of ACR anywhere in your installation. If you have two, it won't work. Look for the version(s) you have installed in Photoshop under the Photoshop menu > About Plug-In:
Your camera has been supported ever since ACR 6.7 and CS5 can run ACR 7.1 (but not any higher version of ACR).
The only correct path for the plug-in in CS5 is as follows:
Very wide image: click on thumbnail for larger view.
NOTE that the path starts with the ROOT LEVEL Library, the one right after the name of your boot drive, not your user or Home Library.
The screen shot is from an installation under Snow Leopard, where I had CS5.

Photoshop CS3 does not recognise gif or png

When trying to open a gif or png, I receive the message:
"Could not complete your request because Photoshop does not recognise this type of file"
I am running CS3 and have just added the 10.5.3 update.

I have a similar problem that suddenly appeared. When properly working, I can save a tif file as a jpeg (or other)and the tag "tiff" will switch to "jpg" in the save description. That does not work anymore. A same example is when I save a Photoshop document as a "tif" or "jpg" or "png," the save description does not change any more to the appropriate form. Meaning, if I took a document named "Mydoc.psd" and tried to save it as a "jpg," I would scroll in the "Format" bar down to "JPEG." BUT, the title of the document will remain as "Mydco.psd." When I try to open it by double-clicking on it, Photoshop will not recognize it. I must open it thru Photoshop only.
Got recommendations?
Thanks anyone.

Indesign server not recognising fonts.

Hi Experts,
We are generating pdf by running Indesign client plugin on indesign server.
We are able to generate the pdf but correct font is not recognised.
We have placed font in
c:\programe files\adobe\indesign cs5 server\fonts\avery.lnk
the avery.lnk pointing to one of our shared folder placed on other IP adress machine.
whereas if we place font files directly to
"c:\program files\adobe\indesign cs5 server\fonts" fonts are recognised, but not from avery.lnk.
We checked that avery.lnk is correctly pointing to our repository where we have kept out fonts.
I will be highly thankful for any reply.
Thanks& Regards

Are you sure you haven't converted everything to outlines?
Not sure what else you could try apart from the standard trashing your prefs or cleaning by exporting but if those don't work post this question on the Indesign forum, you'll get far more people answering there.

Eyedropper sample points changing in CS4

Hola. I upgraded to CS4 a couple of weeks ago and having issuse with the eyedropper sample points
Here's scenario. I select the eyedropper, and shift click to add a samplepoint on a base image, (so I can try and match some numbers via the info pallete). Then I add layer which I want to colour match, and add a curves adjustment.
So far so good. But as soon as I make a clipping mask with the adjustment layer, the sample point information disappears. I need the info to see if I'm matching the numbers - but it's visually confusing to have the adjustment layer effecting everything. What gives?
Also the color sampler information used to remain locked - it now changes depending on what layer I have selected. (I have 'sample all layers' selected in the eyedropper prefs BTW)
I remember reading about some buggy behaviour in CS4 like this - but surely this has been ironed out by now?
Cheers. Dave

Your observation also seems to hold for CS5.
But the Samplers disappear on clipping masking only if the Layer to which the Curves Layer is clipped is empty at those points.
I suppose you could temporarily add a Mask to the Adjustment Layer instead of clipping masking.

Open CS5 Document in CS3

Help. There appears, from my limited knowledge, that there is no way to get a CS5 document into CS3 (without CS4).
This is very bad. I have CS5 documents from customers and I can no longer open the files. CS3 does not know about .idml files and CS5 doesn't know about .inx files.
Please tell me Adobe is fixing this! This is a huge mistake on Adobe's part just assuming that everybody upgrades to every new version. We do not have CS4 and don't have access to it.
Please tell me Adobe is going to allow CS5 to create .inx files that can be read by CS3.
Does anyone know anything about making this happen?
Or, another way to get a CS5 document into CS3?
Thanks,
David Whitmyre

Thaks for the perspective, Bob.
I don't think Adobe is evil, as some certainly do.
I think their prices are high, but hey, they make great products (my opinion). Your point about the cost per day does put things in perspective when looked at that way, but I know many who have held off, being that business has not been so good. For myself, I have upgraded every product I have used at just about every version (skipped a few). I started this "back in the day" using Pagemaker 1 on Windows ver. 2 (yea, some people have no idea that even existed!), Corel Draw ver 1, Photoshop Ver 2, Illustrator, Ventura Publisher (Xerox) ver 1, FrameMaker (when it still belonged to Frame). Fractal Design Painter, Flash, Dreamweaver, blah, blah, blah. Pretty much, you name, I've used it and upgraded it until it died. I've spent thousands upon thousands of dollars on software. However, as you make your point, the payback, if your are in business to make money, is far greater. I have made 100-fold back from what I have put into the purchase and upgrade of the software I use.
I also know it it is no easy task to fix or even add new things into software. I have worked for several software companies over the years. Believe me, I know. I do also know that just about every product I have used has had the ability to downgrade a file back several versions at least. Adobe has to know that there are lots of people out there using CS3 for real-world work. And, unless they live on an island, it is likely they will be working with people who have CS5. Just sayin', seems a little too close to cut it off, even if it is because of features. Make some sort of downgrade ability.
Just my perspective.
Thanks,
David

Disabled iPhone 5 (iOS7) / Not able to restore / Macbook not recognising it

Hi there,
I'm new to this website so please bear with me! This is my problem:
One night my hilarious friends were messing around with my iPhone 5, specifically the passcode. To cut a long story short, my iPhone was disabled.
I've spent the last two days trying to restore it.
Firstly, I followed instructions online to enter into Recovery mode. This seemed to work as there appeared an iTunes logo and a white cable image with an arrow above it onscreen. However, my macbook did not recognise the phone whatsoever - completely ignored it, on iTunes or Finder.
After trying multiple combinations based on several different forums of home button+sleep switch holding/letting go/putting in cable for an hour or two, I took it into my local iStore. The guy in there had it for 3 hours but said he couldn't do anything with it, and he suggested I send it off to Apple. His collegue then suggested I try plugging it into a non-mac computer, e.g. a Windows system.
When I got back I plugged it into my grandma's latptop running Vista. I updated iTunes and plugged in the phone. This time iTunes recognized the iPhone. It said "iTunes has detected an iPhone in recovery mode" and gave me the option to "Restore".
(this is good point to point out I backed up my iPhone a few weeks ago, so don't really care if everything is completely wiped... a new system is quite refreshing anyway.)
I clicked "restore" and it began... took 10 mins, then gave me an error message. I went online and realised I needed to download some up-to-date firmware (which I did).
I clicked "restore" + Shift and selected a firmware file... didn't work. Did it again with a different firmware file... didn't work. I looked into the kind of files I needed, whether I should sign out of my iTunes account while it was restoring..... nothing worked.
To cut a long story short, I feel like I'm at the end of my tether. I've tried a lot of things and this is where I'm at, simply put:
Macbook won't recognise the iPhone, but Windows does.
Windows has problems in the last 30 seconds restoring the phone.
The iPhone is stuck between the apple logo and the iTunes/cable screen, not even going back to the "iPhone has been disabled" home screen.
Throughout all of my tests, my software has all been up-to-date. It's the first thing I check.
Basically I'm between a rock and a hard place: I can't use my iPhone, but I can't restore it either.
I've already talked with my service provider and (see above) taken the phone into the iStore, neither of which could help.
Is there anyone out there who has experienced this and / or able to help?
Thanks,
George

When you say iStore, does that mean an Apple retail store?

My iphone is not recognised by itunes or my computer

My iphone is not recognised by either i tunes or my computer. Everything was working fine but now when i plug my phone into the computer it does not charge up the battery nor does it appear in tunes or my computer.
I have gone through the apple checklist in trying to resolve the problem going into device manager as advised in the apple help guide.
I have reinstalled i tunes as advised, restarted the apple mobile device. When I come to 'verify that the apple mobile usb driver is installed' . There is no apple mobile device usb driver listed under 'universal serial bus controllers' so I followed instructions to install it as per apple website.
In the device manager box under 'other devices' it shows iphone and unknown device both have which have an exclamation mark in a yellow triangle over them.
I followed the instructions to update the apple mobile device driver under 'if only apple iphone appears' got to 'click ok in install from disk dialogue' which is point 8 in the instructions and then point 9 'click next to finish the driver installation steps'.
However this error message appeared - 'windows encountered an error installing the driver software for your device' stating it found the driver software but encountered an error trying to install it. One of the installers for this device cannot perform the installation at this time.
Any help greatly appreciated.
Thank you

Ok Ive gone to support.apple.com and the heading is 'iso:device not recognised in itunes for windows'
Following all steps listed then at step 5 'verify that the apple mobile device usb driver is installed....
In device manager I can see two issues a) under heading 'other device' it lists two....iphone and unknown device...both have ! in a yellow triangle.
Under the heading univeral serial bus controllers I cannot see Apple Mobile Device USB driver so I carry on to the section stating 'Reinstall the Apple Mobile Device driver.....
I click on start and in dialog type devmgmt.msc
I expand the sections imaging devices / other devices / universal serial bus controllers
The guide then says look for the entry that recognises the device as a camera howver all Ican see near this is under 'other devices' where it lists iphone (and unknown device) both with ! in yellow triangle
The next guide entry offers 'If only unknown device appears' or 'If only apple ihphone/pad/pod appears' however I can see both unknown device and iphone.
If I click on 'unknown device' > properties>details>Hardware IDs it shows nothing in the box however under the 'general' tab it states ''This device is not configured correctly (Code 1)'' and suggests clicking update driver. Doing this displays error message - ''Windows encountered a problem installing the driver for this device'' saying ''Windows found driver software for the device but encountered an error while attempting to install it - WPD FileSystem Driver - One of the installers cannot perform the installation at this time''
Doing as above but by clicking on 'iphone>update driver > browse my computer for driver software > let me pick from device drivers on my computer > Have disk > mobile devices two items are shown a) Apple Mobile Device USB driver b)MTP ISB device....
Highlighting (a) and clicking 'have disk' and locating the usbaap164 file in c/common files/apple/mobile device support/drivers then double clicking this file and OK in the 'Install from Disk ' dialog and next again gives error repsonse as above in terms of encountering a problem installing driver but this time lists Apple Mobile Device USB driver.
Sorry for the long winded step by step hope this helps explain things a bit!

Same as, although a new development on this last night, I borrowed a mates USB hub that has it's own mains power supply and for a short time my laptop recognised my IPOD, I obviously thought i had found the solutions as it started to sync at which point the smug smile left my face as i could smell burning plastic. Yep, the usb cable was melting in to the USB hub. so not only won't the sodding thing work properly it is a god **** fire hazard. Luckily our producst that cost hundreds of pounds are supported by friendly and helpful people at Apple!!!!!!!!!!!!
Oh and i downloaded itunes 7.6 last night and nothing.
PLEASE HELP!!!!!!!!!!!!

Ipod not recognised by anything! Help!!!

I am running Windows XP and have a iPod click wheel.
iTunes (6.0.5.20) will now not recognise it; and neither will the updater. I have reset my ipod, but still no joy. When I try the updater, a pop up box called Autoplay comes up and it looks like it is searching for something.
I then read some posts and put the ipod into Disk mode - this then made it recognisable by the updater and I tried to restore. However, after a while, it stopped and I got a message "Cannot mount iPod".
Since then, the updater will not recognise the ipod, even in disk mode.
I think the error started when i got a message saying that one of my files (can't remember which) was corrupt (at this point, itunes was recognising the ipod); i then took the cable out and put it back in again, and it looked like all the songs on my ipod were being updated (as if just being out put on). Perhaps foolishly, I took the cable out again, and although it looks like I have 12,000 tracks on the ipod, many of them just skip over as if they are not there....
please help!
thanks

As you now realise unplugging the cable is not a good idea. What you should have done (in the first place) is to have either run the updater to restore (which wipes all the files on the iPod and should fix the filesystem) or run chkdsk (which may have prevented the problem getting worse). When a bit of a filesystem is damaged it tends to spread, if you fix it then it generally goes no further. Try putting the iPod into disk mode and use chkdsk to fix it. You need to use the /R (or at least the /F) parameter to fix it (e.g. Chkdsk I: /R, I: is the drive letter windows has allocated to your iPod).
