Enhance make the photo disappear or to become black or white

For some photos taken with the same camera the edit - enhance function makes the photos disappear. When "revert to original" the photos come back.
The computer:
MacBook from late 2006.
2 GHz Intel Core 2 Duo
Mac OS X Lion 10.7.5 (11G63b)
It is not possible to update the computer to Mountain Lion due to old hard ware.

  • Can you use color splash on a photo that was edited in black and white or do you have to mask the photo before editing it in black and white?

    can you use color splash on a photo that was edited in black and white or do you have to mask the photo before editing it in black and white?

    I think you are asking whether it makes an difference whether you create the mask before or after you edit the black & white version. The answer is that since the color version and the b&w version are on different layers (as seen here), it makes no difference when you edit the b&w version.
    Also consider another technique that separates the color element in the image. Here, the area surrounding the color image is a line interpretation of the scene, similar to a Tone Line Conversion, a technique that was created with film many years ago.  (I am so old,  I still remember how it was done.) This is how to get the result similar to the one shown above but with a line illustration created in Photoshop replacing the b&w layer version:
    1. Open an image. This technique is more successful if the image you select has many clearly defined edges.
    2. Make a duplicate layer. (Cmd+J). It becomes Layer 1
    3. With Layer 1 chosen, go to Filter>Blur>Smart Blur. Set the Quality to High and the Mode to Edge Only. The default settings are Radius 3.0, Threshold 25.0. To increase the amount of detail in the line conversion, raise the Radius setting. Use the white-on-black illustration within Smart Blur as a guide. Then click OK.
    4. The line illustration will appear as white lines in a black background. To change this to black-on-white, choose Image>Adjustments>Invert.
    5. Insert a new layer below Layer 1. It will serve as the background for the line illustration. To do this, hold down the Command key while clicking on the New Layer symbol at the bottom of the Layers panel. It is the second symbol from the right. It will become Layer 2.
    6. Fill this new layer with a light color. To do this, click on the Foreground Color symbol in the Tools section. It will open the Color Picker. Choose a light color and click OK.
    7. Choose Edit>Fill. Use: Foreground Color.  Mode: Normal. Opacity: 100% and click OK. Layer 2 will fill with the color. Although it will not appear in the image because Layer 1 is above it, a quick check of the Layers panel will confirm that the color you chose has filled Layer 2.
    8. Remove the white area from in Layer 1. Go to Layer 1. Choose the Magic Wand tool. Uncheck the Contiguous box in the Options Bar and click in a white area of the image. Next, click the Delete key.  Choose Select>Deselect to remove the marching ants. 
    9. (Optional)  You may now change the line illustration in Layer 1 from black to a dark color compatible with the color in Layer 2. To choose the color, click on the Foreground Color symbol in the Tools section. It will open the Color Picker. Choose a suitable dark color and click OK. While in Layer 1, click the first symbol next to the word  Lock:  in the Layers panel above Layer 1. This will prevent the dark color from appearing in the blank area of Layer 1. Choose Edit>Fill. Use: Foreground Color.  Mode: Normal. Opacity: 100% and click OK. The black lines will change to the dark color you chose.
    10. Combine Layers1 and 2: While in Layer 1, choose Layer>Merge Down. The layers are combined into a single layer called Layer 2.
    11.  Add a black mask to Layer 2 by clicking on the Mask symbol at the bottom of the Layers panel. It is the symbol to the right of the fx symbol. Where you would like full color objects to appear within the line rendition, paint in white on the black mask with a brush set to either soft-edge or hard-edge as the illustration and your taste dictate.  

  • I have a problem with Safari in IOS 8 on my iPad 3. The bookmarks take up a third of the screen and I can't seem to make the bookmarks disappear until I need them. The useful part of the screen is therefore very small. Any suggestions gratefully appr

    I have a problem with Safari in IOS 8 on my iPad 3. The bookmarks take up a third of the screen and I can't seem to make the bookmarks disappear until I need them. The useful part of the screen is therefore very small. Any suggestions gratefully appreciated.

    OK, it now sort of works. A couple of problems here:
    After updating IOS, Safari iCloud was "automatically" switched off
    Switching it on had no effect
    resetting my iPad automatically switched off safari iCloud again
    after switching it back on, it said "turning off safari data"
    switched it off and on again, now it said : "turning on safari data" and the sync worked
    On IOS 7 no problems
    The bookmarks not being displayed was because after pressing the book icon, it defaulted to showing the history and I had to press "Back" to get to the other options

    Hi,
    I have read thru the message on this forum and can't seem to figure out how to hide or make the date disappear on the blog summary page.  I can do it on the blog entry pages by turning the color opacity to 0. 
    I have included my page here:http://www.quantumhealthcentre.com/www.quantumhealthcentre.com/Services/Services .html
    Also, if anyone knows how to delete the archive page or inactivate it on my website, please let me know.

    No early version of iPhoto can open a Library from a later version.
    You can try revert the Library with iPhoto Library Manager

  • My camera roll in my 5c has over 2000 pics my photo stream only has 900, how can i make the photo stream have the same amount of pics so i can delete some from my roll to free up space

    my camera roll in my 5c has over 2000 pics my photo stream only has 900, how can i make the photo stream have the same amount of pics so i can delete some from my roll to free up space

    Photostream is not a substitute for importing your photos to your computer.
    How long are My Photo Stream photos stored in iCloud?
    The photos you upload to My Photo Stream are stored in iCloud for 30 days to give your devices plenty of time to connect and download them."
    ow many photos are stored in My Photo Stream on my devices and computers?
    iCloud pushes all your photos to the My Photo Stream album on your devices and computers, and manages them efficiently, so you don’t run out of storage space.
    Your iOS devices keep a rolling collection of your last 1000 photos in the My Photo Stream album.

  • Make the caret disappeare in JTextField

    how can I make the caret disappeare in JTextField?

    textfield.getCaret().setVisible(false);
    that doesn't work. i just tried it.Actually, I believe it does work. I think the problem is that every time the text field regains focus the caret is set visible again.
    So, what you really need to do is add a FocusListner to the text field and in the gainedFocus() method add the above code.
    Don't know if there is an easier way, unless textField.setCaret(null) works.

  • When i click on a photo to edit, the photo doesn't show up and the area where the photo should show up is black.  Why?

    When i click on a photo to edit, the photo doesn't show up and the area where the photo should show up is black.  Why?  I can edit some photos, whereas others I can not.

    There are several possible causes for the Black Screen issue
    1. Permissions in the Library: Back Up and try rebuild the library: hold down the command and option (or alt) keys while launching iPhoto. Use the resulting dialogue to rebuild. Include the option to check and repair permissions.
    2. Minor Database corruption: Back Up and try rebuild the library: hold down the command and option (or alt) keys while launching iPhoto. Use the resulting dialogue to rebuild.
    3. A Damaged Photo: Select one of the affected photos in the iPhoto Window and right click on it. From the resulting menu select 'Show File (or 'Show Original File' if that's available). (On iPhoto 11 this option is under the File -> Reveal in Finder.) Will the file open in Preview? If not then the file is damaged. Time to restore from your back up.
    4. A corrupted iPhoto Cache: Trash the com.apple.iPhoto folder from HD/Users/Your Name/Library/ Caches...
    5. A corrupted preference file: Trash the com.apple.iPhoto.plist file from the HD/Users/ Your Name / library / preferences folder. (Remember you'll need to reset your User options afterwards. These include minor settings like the window colour and so on. Note: If you've moved your library you'll need to point iPhoto at it again.)
    If none of these help:
    As a Test:
    Hold down the option (or alt) key 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?

  • Hi, whilst on holiday my iPhone automatically updated my photo album and duplicated all the pictures. I deleted the duplicate pictures now when I click on the photo it's just a black screen. Any ideas how I can restore my photos?

    Does anybody know how to restore photos on the iPhone 4?
    My phone automatically updated my photo album and it made duplicates of each photo.
    I deleted one of each as it maxed out my memory. When I went to view the photos I just got a black screen. I have now lost all my
    Photos :( if I synch my phone what will happen?

    The only way to lose content on the device is restore as "new" from iTunes or "Erase All Content and Settings" from the device.
    Start by resetting or restarting the device to see if that rectifies the problem.

  • I have lost pictures in my albums. Only some.  I deleted same photos from last 18 months because they were duplicates.  Did this make the pictures disappear from yhe albums?

    I have lost the pictures in most of my albums.  After I creatd the albums, I went back to the same pictures in the last 18 months and erased them.  Did this cause the album pictures to also be erased?  My Itunes was acting like my Ipad was attached, but it  was not.  Help

    Was that in iPhoto on your Mac or on your iPad?
    , I went back to the same pictures in the last 18 months and erased them.
    Then, sorry to say, you will have deleted the photos  from your iPhoto library.
    Have you checked iPhoto's Trash and the Trash on your Desktop, if the photos are still there? Then put them back from iPhoto's Trash or move them back from the trash basket on your Desktop.
    Did this cause the album pictures to also be erased?
    Albums do not store photos or duplicate photos - they are a way to group photos that are stored in events,  just an index, showing you a subset of the photos in the library. A photo can be used in many albums, without needing more storage. When you delete a photo from its event, it will be removed from all albums, and all other views of the iPhoto library. Never delete a phot from its event, unless you want to remove it completely from your iPhoto library. A photo is only a duplicate, unless you have imported the same file twice and you see the copy in an event.
    iPhoto has several views, that may show you the same photos in different groupings, for easy access, but do not contain duplicates.
    If you cannot retrieve your photos from the Trashs, restore your iPhoto Library from the last backup, that contains all photos.  If there is no recent backup, you may want to try recovery software - then stop using your mac and don't do anything that writes to your harddisk, until you recovered, what is still on your disk.
    For example,
    Disk Drill: http://www.cleverfiles.com/
    usually makes a very good job of finding any jpegs, that still can be found on the harddrive.
    My Itunes was acting like my Ipad was attached, but it  was not.
    I don't understand, why you mention the iPad? Have you synced your photos to your iPad and are there still copies of them in your albums on the iPad?
    Regards

  • Using Adobe Premier Elements to create a video using the photos and it is make the photos blurry. Is there a setting to correct this?

    as the subject states, i am suing Premier Elements pro to create a video using photos. The photos are clear then when you play the video they become blurry. I would guess there would be a way to correct this but not having much success. any helps would be great.

    Iltowman
    Thanks for the follow up. Right now I see details that do need addressing. For one, you are importing 3:2 photos into a project set for 16:9.
    You still have not told us what version of Premiere Elements that you are using and on what computer operating system it is running. For now I will assume, Premiere Elements 13/13.1 on Windows 7, 8, or 8.1 64 bit. NTSC setup.
    Please try the following as a mini test run (just a few of your photos) to determine if the Timeline photos present better in the Edit area and in an export.
    1. Open Premiere Elements 13/13.1 to the Expert workspace and go to File Menu/New/Project and Change Settings.
    2. In Change Settings, change the settings to
    NTSC
    DSLR
    1080p
    DSLR [email protected]
    OK out of there.
    3. In the New Project Dialog that now opens, rename the project and make sure that you have a check mark next to Force Selected Project Setting on This Project. OK out of there.
    4. Back in the Export workspace, import your photos using Premiere Elements' Add Media/Files and Folders/Projects Assets from where you drag the photos to the Timeline. There will be an orange line over the Timeline content. Press the Enter key of the computer main keyboard. or the Render button above the Timeline to do Timeline rendering which will result in the best possible preview in the Edit area monitor.
    Also, right click the Edit area monitor, select Playback Quality, and then determine if the "Highest" gives better results than "Automatic".
    If all looks good, then let us look at the quality of a AVCHD.mp4 export of that Timeline....
    Publish+Share
    Computer
    AVCHD
    with Presets = MP4 - H.264 1920 x 1080p30.
    Is the quality of the photos in this mini test run better, the same, or worse?
    About your photos (3872 x 2592 3:2)...video is 4:3 or 16:9. So to avoid black borders, you could consider
    a. cropping the originals from 3:2 to 16:9 before import
    or
    b. importing them as is and doing any needed scaling in the Edit area monitor
    But, right now the focus is on image clarity rather than black borders.
    Please review and consider.
    Thank you.
