Focus stacking doesnt work correctly

Hi there,
I tried to "focus-stack" multiple photos.
Everything is working fine, except when I blend the pictures together, only the bottom most layer will be shown. Photoshop won't select the parts of the layers which are sharp.
In this video I posted you will see what I am doing, it is in Dutch, but it's the same as the English version.
Can anyone help me out?
I use Lightroom and Photoshop CC, newest updates.
I import from my canon, and then convert the files to .DNG within Lightroom Import.
Thx

Thanks a lot guys! I really appreciate your help.
It's finally working (And now I see making good pictures for focus-stacking isn't that easy).
So this is what I did.
I first took R_Kelly his advice. I checked the version, and it seemed that this evening a new update has come out.
So I updated, tried the stacking again, And it was working.
Strange thing is, that in my opinion the update can't be the thing. It should have worked in older version right?
So I was thinking, when you update, photoshop will be resetted right? At least, the reset that Benjamin meant.
The final conclusion:
Resetting helped (with help of the update)
Thx!

  • Ipod nano doesnt work correctly

    I have already boutgh the new ipod nano 7 generation, it works correctly, but when I transfer the music into it, the multitouch pad doesnt respond, and it works slower.

    Looks like the battery is broken.
    I would give it back to apple for a new one.
    If you have an apple store next to you, bring your ipod to them, because that should save you a lot of time.

  • DW pages doesnt work correctly

    All pages made with Dreamweaver CC doesnt work in my browsers. I made design as in tutorial, but I can see only texts in browser. I used Explorer, Opera, Chrome. I also started my site on server, but problem is the same. Its strange that example file doesnt work too
    .----> I see in browser

    Assuming you defined a local site folder in DW before you began this project, I'm guessing your style sheet is not properly linked to your HTML page or you forgot to upload it to your server.

    If you didn't define a local site folder, DW cannot manage links and assets for you.  You must define a site for all new projects by going to Site > New Site and tell DW where to keep local site files on your hard drive.  See screenshot.

  • Stacking not working correctly, master doesn't show, no version stacking

    Hi,
    When I edit an image it does not stack the versions. I have no master to refer to. I can only see the edited version
    This happens on newly imp[orted files as welll as o;der files
    Automaically stack new version is  checked on.
    I can see the edited image but have no master image to comapre it to.
    If i use a plugin, the two images are stacked, but i can't see both, open stacks doesn't work
    I only see the master with a number an a indicator "1 of 2" in the left hand corner of the image, but open stack is greayed out
    so I can not see all versions
    If I Selet "New Version From Original" the 2 images stack, but the behavior is the same as above
    If i go to a previously made stack, say a year ago, it open and closes as it should
    The old stack when closed has a number (not 1 of 2 etc) in the left hand corner, when I open it the stack the border changes from none to being surrounded by a darker border.
    The stack that I made with new wersions is surronded in dark grey as if it is open, but onlt shows one image.
    Just as a note, I also lost all my default settings and ahd to re add them. In inspector i had to readd adjustments and reset them, the same thing happened in import and medtadata, I lost all my defaults. I can't tell you when this started happenins as I have not been using Aperture for a while.
    Hope this make sense,   Aperture 3.5.1  OS X 10.9.1
    Thanks,

    Hi,
    Created a new database, imported a group of raws, If I used a plugin - stacks work properly, get original (master) and edited copy
    Editing does not create a stack. Some thing is corrupt in the install. It seems like it's creating the descriptive file for the edit, but won’t let the master be viewable
    Does anyone know how I can get a new install of 2.5.1, my copy comes from a serialized version of 2.x. (which won’t install from Mavericks) Then I will delete everything, plists, kexts, plugins, any support files for plugins, etc.Do the cleanest new install of Aperture. If I call Apple for support, it will cost me $49 and i don’t know if they will give me a new copy– I want the installer, just in case I have to reinstall again. It just seems like I would be paying for the program allb over again, on the other hand it’s cheaper then that other company, Ado..something @$150 and start from scratch
    Sorry if I’m venting, but this is frustrating.
    Thanks,
    Mark

  • Show focus point doesnt work

    when i put on show focus points it does not show me(( what can i do it will be work??

    Definatlely have the same issue.  When I import in iPhoto and go back to Aperture they're gone.  If I import in Aperture, they're there.
    I would think this is just some exif data that iPhoto shouldn't touch?
    So much for fully sharing libraries/functionality.

  • Laptop lid closing function doesnt work correctly

    Hello,
    I use openbox and acpid is installed.
    When I close laptop screen, my laptop does not sleep nor hibernate, fans continue to work and if I put the laptop in to a laptop bag ( which I did because I thought it was working ),  the laptop becomes very hot in very short time.
    If I want to open the laptop again, screen does not open. I dont know if the system is really working or not but it doesnt open no matter what. So I'm forced to do hard reset.

    I find arch wiki very confusing, it's not helpful. Only helpful guide was beginner's guide, the rest is either confusing or incomplete.
    I think I'll install either Xfce or Gnome, because this is making me feel I'm going nowhere.
    Also, another thing is, I dont know if its about  disabling acpid but, now whenever I do something new, like opening a tab in firefox, clicking on search area in arch wiki, my machine acts like a new cd inserted, but instead it uses hdd, it stops for 1 second, drive starts moving, then it acts, and I'm talking about 8gb ram, i7 machine...

  • QT 7.0.4 Install Doesnt Work Correctly on MAC OS 10.3.9

    I dloaded QT 7.0.4 and installed it on a 1.25 mHz Dual Processor G4 MAC computer with 1.5 GIGS of RAM frunning MAC OS 10.3.9. I typed in the Pro Serial Number. When I click on either previously made in QT 6.5.2 movies or movies exported from SoundTrack Pro the QT 7.0.4 application DOES NOT EVEN OPEN. Either I get NOTHING or an error message that says the application has timed out. I only installed QT 7.0.4 and SoundTrack Pro for a project students are doing in the lab.
    Any Help is appreciated since it SHOULD WORK. Thank you.

    This is more of a solution for programmers than it is for users. I tried to hack an application this way and had no luck. If you really want to try, be sure to make a backup of your application first. Just copy it and paste a copy to your desktop or somewhere safe.
    For the version you are editing, right click (or hold control and click) and select "Show Package Contents". Go to Contents->MacOS and you will see the actual program or in the case of Java applications, a file called JavaApplicationStub. This is the file to overwrite.
    Keep in mind, this isn't entirely likely to work. It really depends on the application. You are better off reverting to Quicktime 7.01 using Apple's QT 7.01 reinstaller, or if you already upgraded to 7.1 use Pacifist to force the installation of both QT 7.04 and the 7.01 reinstaller. That worked for me.

  • "When I open a link in a new tab, switch.." Doesnt work correctly

    I'm using Firefox 28.0 (Waterfox build)
    I've verified that:
    - browser.tabs.loadInBackground: False
    - browser.tabs.loadDivertedInBackground: True
    - "When I open a link in a new tab, switch to it immediately" is enabled in the UI.
    It seems only some websites actually switch to the new tab. Also, sometimes, this feature will stop working all together; requiring me to toggle the Firefox UI setting and/or restart firefox.

    Start Firefox in <u>[[Safe Mode|Safe Mode]]</u> to check if one of the extensions (Firefox/Tools > Add-ons > Extensions) or if hardware acceleration is causing the problem.

  • Conditional Loop doesnt work correctly.

    Hi There,
    If you analyze my code, its all about parsing a dictionary.
    Im checking the dictionary for the "aardvark" word. It gives me
    false all the time. When "aardvark" is the first word in the array,
    i.e my_dictionary[0] is "aardvark". I wonder why the conditional
    loop isnt working fine. Im checking if the user string aardvark is
    == my_dictionary
    ; it should be giving me the true value.
    Is there any error in the code? Can anyone explain me where
    im going wrong?
    P.S -> The traces put everywhere gives me the right
    output. Except for the result of the if().
    Regards and thanks a lot in advance.
    Roshan Kolar

    Hi Raymond,
    Thanks for the reply. I got the problem, actually the
    conditional loop was perfect, the parsing was not. The reason
    being, some words in the dictionary had a Space/NewLine/Carriage
    Return at the last index after the word. It was all random, so some
    words were taken, but some were not like "vicious" == "vicious " -
    gave INVALID WORD.
    So I redesigned the parser, where I removed the unwanted last
    char - now the condition worked fine. Thank god I was working even
    after posting the query.
    Thanks a lot Raymond.
    Regards,
    Roshan

  • Swf export doesnt work correct

    Hello
    I created a website and exported the project into an swf file. Unfortunately some of the pages exported are correct and others show something else but not the stuff I created in CS4. Actually it is only text so nothing difficult. The result I get is something I had before, only bolt text parts or only the grey letters and not the colered letters...
    Iam using version 10. Whats going on?
    Thx for your help!
    Matt

    Hey,
    the wreid thing is that I used on all pages the same font. Just on two pages the text is not exported correct. On the one page a part of a line is missing completely. But the rest of the text is exported correct. I also added something and it is exporting it all the time correct, but not the first line with some bolt and colered letters. On an other page there are only the headlines shown I wrote on this page maybe three days ago and I have already changed to something else. It seems to me that the software is using some information from the past???
    Mathias
    Edit:
    Right now I removed everything from my page and even then I get the stuff I already mentioned! There is nothing on the page but the software exports something from the past...

  • Firefox udated, and now facebook doesnt work correctly.....

    This morning firefox updated itself, and now all of the pop-ups on facebook do not work, no chat, no messages, etc....... is it a default setting that isnt allowing it? i tried my IE and it works fine on that...... ???????? thanks!!!!
    == URL of affected sites ==
    http://facebook.com

    Hello.
    You may be having a problem with some Firefox add-on that is hindering your Firefox's normal behavior. Have you tried disabling all add-ons (just to check), to see if Firefox goes back to normal?
    Whenever you have a problem with Firefox, whatever it is, you should make sure it's not coming from one of your installed add-ons, be it an extension, a theme or a plugin. To do that easily and cleanly, run Firefox in [http://support.mozilla.com/en-US/kb/Safe+Mode safe mode] and select ''Disable all add-ons''. If the problem disappears, you know it's from an add-on. Disable them all in normal mode, and enable them one at a time until you find the source of the problem. See [http://support.mozilla.com/en-US/kb/Troubleshooting+extensions+and+themes this article] for information about troubleshooting extensions and theme. You can troubleshoot plugins the same way.
    If you want support for one of your add-ons, you'll need to contact its author.

  • My Party-Jukebox doesnt work correctly

    Hello to everybody
    I run iTunes 7.3.2 and all was ok, but suddently (somebody tried to copy a couple of songs from a CD-Rom to my iTunes but who knows how... but he may not be guilty of this malfunction) the mode "Party-Jukebox" is as it were blocked. It does not dispay any of the songs from the source or the playlists that I select. Strange is: it appears a unchangable list of 362 songs (but max 100 should be possible to display) and these songs are sorted by interpret, instead to be a random selected mix. And I can't do or change anything in the mode Party-Jukebox. Also the buttons like "actualize" does not change anything.
    I tried one thing: To upgrade the iTunes Software from 7.3.1 to 7.3.2. The installation was successfuly but the same problem remained.
    What could cause this problem? What can I do to fix it or where shoult I look for e.g a bad file or so?
    Thank you very much
    (Frigi)

    Try selecting all of the songs displayed in the Party Shuffle list and hitting delete. This should force the list to repopulate and often solves the problem.

  • Volume doesnt work correctly

    The remote only incrementally changes volume. In other words, you need to push the volume button many,many,many times just to change the level more than one notch. A real PITA.

    Finally found a solution for the P265 remote here:
    http://forums.verizon.com/t5/FiOS-TV-Technical-Assistance/remote-control-volume-control-issue/m-p/39...
    "On the new remote (P265) use the Samsung code and it is the 4th code also. Press and hold the <OK> and the 0 keys together, and then enter 331. Then press the <CH +> button 4 times, BUT block the the end (IR light) of the remote for the 1st 3 presses. On the 4th press of the  <CH +> button the tv will turn on (or off), wait a few seconds, then press <OK> to confirm."

  • Focus under Win2k does not work correctly

    Hi,
    we've found out that the focus does not work correctly under Windows 2000 in
    Seamless Mode (App is a Windows Application running on Windows Terminal Server
    2003), the same application has no problems under Windows XP, Apple Macintosh
    and Linux.
    Example: The application has a button which pop's up a small calendar window
    giving that window focus. In Tarantella under Win2k however you just see the
    window popping up shortly and then going in the background. As the window is in
    the background and you can't get the window back and you also cannot work
    further in that application as the rest is inactive.
    Only way is to do a right-click on the application in the taskbar, which brings
    the window in the foreground again. What makes this problem even harder to
    analyze is, that it sometimes even works correctly (around 3 of 10 times).
    We've mostly recognized this with modal windows. The native client does not have
    this problem, however as far as I know it does not support seamless mode.
    2. The second problem we got is, that if you click with the mouse into the
    initializing Window while the application starts up after you have clicked on an
    application Link in SGD (I mean the Pre-Login window of Windows which shortly
    shows up just before the Login Process begins),
    the application is not started seamlessly but is started within that window and
    you have no chance but closing an restarting the application to get it in
    seamless mode. This is seen on all Client Operating Systems by us and not only
    Windows 2000.
    The Client runs:
    Windows 2000 SP4 all updates installed
    Java: 1.5.0-5
    Browser: IE6.0 and Firefox 1.0.7
    Server: Windows 2003 Terminal Server (all updates installed)
    Tarantella: 4.20.909
    I hope that someone has at least a workaround.
    Regards
    Carsten

    I have organized some testcases attached are 3 Test Programs which work
    nice natively but got these problems under Tarantella under every Windows
    Operating System (the error is not Windows 2000 as I previously mentioned but
    also occurs on Windows XP).
    The interesting thing is that the Test Program made with .NET does not show this
    problem.
    Could someone please test these and tell if this error is reproducible on your
    systems as well ?
    Run these Testprograms natively, they show no misbehavior.
    Execute this from a SGD Webtop Session in Seamless Mode, see that
    the Modal window is not modal but shifts into the background on every 2 -3 click.
    Regards
