Fill after use pen tool

it is possible after using pen tool in path mode ifill the objetc i made with color ? I need the steps/ Thanks

Use the path selection tool to select the path. Then copy it: ctrl/cmd-C. Use the pen or shape tool to create a SHAPE layer. just make a small box or something to create the layer. Then press ctrl/cmd-V to paste your path into that shape layer. Select the small shape you made to create the layer and delete. it.

You may draw the spine of the bow with the Pen Tool and apply a custom made Artbrush to it; the Artbrush should be a fill no stroke shape reflecting the relative thickness along the relative length (the thickness (height) of the brushed path will be the thickness of the brushed stroke at 1pt Stroke Weight, and the length of the shape is arbitrary, so it can be set to 8, 10, 100, or whatever, because the brush strtches to the length of the path).
And you may draw half the bow, reflect (Object>Transform>Reflect) and distribute (Align>Distribute), and join the halves.

Aperture 3 keeps crashing on me, consistently. More frequently after using Burn tool or skin smoothing - and even more often when I feather. What can I do? I already upgraded my RAM. I'm at a loss!

4) When my computer crashes, once it starts again, it says "repairing" ... but I am not familiar with reparing permissions -- can you explain how I might do that?
If you are running OS X Lion, then you can restart your computer and then press and hold the 'Option' key immediately after you hear the start up 'gong' (usually heard when grey screen shows as it restarts).
You should see at least two Disks to choose from. Choose 'Recovery Disk' and wait for it to load, then choose 'Disk Utility' option in the Utilities dialog.
Once Disk Utility loads, do the following:
1 - In the left hand pane, choose your system partition (usually called either 'Macintosh HD' or 'Macintosh SSD'). Note - don't choose the actual hard drive listed above the partition when using Disk Utility in OS X Lion as this doesn't offer options for repairing due to it including the Recovery Disk you have loaded in memory.
2 - Click the 'First Aid' tab
3 - Click the 'Repair Disk Permissions' button in lower portion of main pane and allow to complete. Ideally, you will get a final message in main pane saying Disk Permissions are repaired.
4 - At lower right of same pane, click the 'Repair Disk' button and allow to complete. Ideally, you will get a final message indicating that Disk Repair is completed and all appears to be good.
5 - Quit Disk Utility > Close Utilities dialog window > Click 'Restart' button (confirm as needed).
You should boot straight into the system partition when complete.
Note - any red text in the main pane text while running the repairs will be issues and you will need to follow the advice given or post back.
If you are running Snow Leopard; then (as David mentions) boot from your first OS X reinstall disc and run the Disk Utility the same way; except you select the actual hard drive listed at top of left pane (not the partition below it). This is because Snow Leopard does not use a 'Recovery Disk' partition and repairs can be run on the HD or SSD itself.
Hope that helps.

How to add a 'stoke path' using 'pen tool' on CS6 (mac)?

I'm a beginner at photoshop and I'm only 14 years old. I need to know this for my GCSE project.
I'm trying to create something similar to this:
Using pen tool and stroke path, but when i use the pen tool I'm not sure how to add the stroke path like that.
I've used CS4 previously at school and when you right clicked on the path it came up with this:
I haven't a clue how to get that up on CS6 (on mac) and when you right click it, it just seems to continue adding the path. Any help?

In addition to conroys advice here is a video tutorial that might help you as well:

Thumbnails do not display after using rebuild tool

I am using OSX 10.7.5, and iPhoto 8.1.2.
recently I made a back up copy of my files.
I then reinstalled my operating system.
I then copied my iphoto library back onto my computer.
imported my iPhoto library into iPhoto
Pictures are in iPhoto.
Thumbnails do not display.
I have used the rebuild tools provided by iPhoto.
Still no thumbnails displaying.
any other ideas?

It relates to your suggestion in that, the reason I posted was to solve a thumbnail issue.
"re: Thumbnails do not display after using rebuild tool"
Terence suggested reloading my back up library.
I asked Terence where I should import to.
I was thinking that my thumbnail issue was related to the way I imported my back up.
You clarified where to import the library...
I tried it and I still have no thumbnails
I have already tried repairing permissions and rebuilding thumbnails using the i photo repair tool.
can you help me?

I have noticed while using pen tool that I have to wait before the small square appears.

I have noticed while using pen tool that I have to wait before the small square appears. Tenth of a second, but this is disturbing on a daily basis. Is there any solution?

It seems that in your version of InDesign, the image preview is grayed out while you are editing the picture frame with the pen tool. Not the case with my version of CS5 for macintosh.
But I think this is a bad way to work. If you want the path only to affect text wrap, then edit the text wrap path. This is more versatile than editing the frame because you can have text appear over part of the image visible below text. This of a bird in flight in a light sky. The text wrap can surround the bird so text can appear in the sky. Your method does not permit this.
If you are editing the frame’s path because you also want to crop the image, then you’d be better off doing that in Photoshop by adding either a clipping path in the Paths panel or a mask in the Layers panel. If it’s an Illustrator file then add a clipping mask.
I find InDesign’s pen tool and general path editing to be significantly inferior to Illustrator’s. If I need to have an editable path in InDesign that I would draw much more easily in Illustrator, then I do that and copy the path back. It comes in as a simple unassigned frame, which I can then convert to a picture frame or a text frame and copy/paste the contents into the new frame. That may suit you if the above suggestions are inappropriate.

Using pen tool, no fill no stroke but still colored line?

I have used the pen tool to draw shapes in Illustrator. Some shapes have normal paths and some are weird. The normal paths disappear when they aren't clicked on, the weird ones have a green stroke always. There is no fill and no stroke on so I am confused. Also when I click on the normal ones and then try to use the pen tool, it creates a normal path. When I click on the weird ones and use the pen tool, it copies it and makes a green line. If I put on a stroke, its like there's an inner stroke. Please help!!

You sure that the green ones aren't Guides. I believe the default color for Guides is green. What happens if you go to View>Guides>Clear Guides? Do the green paths disappear? Cmd(Ctrl)-5 is the KBSC for Make Guide. If you accidentally hit that with a path selected it will become a guide.

Bizarre file size saved after using Pen Selection Tool in CS4/3

Bizarre file size after using and saving pen selection. Image file size = 69.9mb at 300ppi for 14.2 x 9.5" image. If one crops the image about by hal and saves it, the file size = 34.2mb. If one uses the pen tool and selects the same area that was cropped, the file size = 75.1mb... this is crazy. I don't think the PS is saving it as a 32bit rather than a 16 bit.
Any ideas of what's going on. Nvere have encountered such a problem in the past.
Thanks

Half second delay using pen tool. Lag between mouse up and when point appears on screen

Regarding the pen tool, using Photoshop CC 2014.2.2 on a PC— There is a half second delay between the moment I click the mouse and when the path point shows up. I've disabled the tablet input service on my computer, which worked, after a restart, but eventually this delay starts happens again. This is immensely inconvenient and I need a permanent solution. If anyone has any sort of answer please tell me. I will try anything.

I am experiencing the same problem. It's very annoying! The issue comes and goes... some days it works like it should, some days it's lagging. I couldnt figure out why so far, neither could the adobe support via chat...
Here's a video showing the issue. Make sure to watch in 720p and turn on the volume, so you can hear when I click.

Advice on using Pen tool to create shine effect?

I'm very new to the pen tool. I want to draw a shape at the top of my rectangle and lower the opacity of it to make it appear similar to a top lit shine like something that Apple uses.
I place my first anchor point in the upper left corner, move the pen to the center of the rectangle (based on what the smart guides tell me) and drag the handle to the right, I then plot the anchor point in the upper right hand corner and it finishes the other side, Lastly, I close the path by clicking back on the first anchor point.
1.) is this the correct way to use the Pen tool?
2.) can anyone suggest anything else I might do make this effect look better?
Thanks in advance!

In the tarnsparency Panel there are the blending modes which work on individual object groups or layers
and you can also give each object transparency as well.
You mightwant to create a highlight or some kind of reflection.
I am sure you can do better than I did I used an Effext>Styklize>Feaher to soften theedges of the highlights though often highlisht are no soft.
