HDR Pro on CS 5 - Merged image appears but bottom with save buttons cut off??

When I select photos to merge, either via Bridge or within CS5 (Automate/Merge to HDR Pro), the Merged image appears over the CS5 screen.  However, the bottom of the HDR screen with the photos selected for the merge along with the Cancel & Save buttons are cut off.  The only way for me to exit HDR is to force quit.
My monitor resolution is 1440X900 which is better than the 1024x768 required for CS5.
I noticed the same problem in Terry White's video on Youtube describing workflow between Lightroom & CS5 HDR Pro (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rab25UTe6HY) as well as a couple of other users mentioning the problem to Zeno Bokor of Adobe (http://help.adobe.com/en_US/photoshop/cs/using/WSfd1234e1c4b69f30ea53e41001031ab64-78e5a.h tml).
Does anyone have a solution???
Thanks.

I found the soluion - after spending over an hour with Adobe phone support (800-833-6687) - of which 45min was being on hold.
It turns out that for some computers, Photoshop CS5 doesn't automatically work as efficiently as it could with the monitor resolution, even if the resolution is > than the minimum 1024 X 768.  This is more frequent in those that have had older versions of Photoshop in them. This causes part of the screen to be cut off when going into HDR Pro.
One has to "prime" CS5 to recognize one's computer monitor settings.  How to do:
Close out of PS CS5
Go to system preferences and select hardware settings/display (For PC would have to go through Control Panel/Hardware/Display)
Change monitor setting to one recommended by Adobe: 1024 X 768 or 1280 X 800
Save changes.  Monitor will look less clear if you have been using higher settings...it's ok for now.
Now open CS5 again and access HDR Pro all three ways available, i.e. via Bridge, Mini Bridge and through PS under File/Automate. 
Verify that the entire screen is visible including all thumbnails and Save/Close buttons.
Close out of CS5.
Go back to System Preferences ( for PC, go through Control Panel) and change back to your preferred resolution.
Voila! When you open CS5 again you should be able to see the entire screen.
For example, I use a Macbook Pro with OS 10.6.7 and the monitor resolution  was set to 1440 X 900.  However, I still couldn't see the bottom of the  screen with the Save/Close buttons so couldn't save any work (had to  force quit or escape to exit HDR).  After doing the above steps, I am now able to use HDR Pro w/o problem and access the Merge via all three modes.
Via  Mini Bridge - Choose photos to merge--> Tools (above photos, last on right in Content bar) --> Photoshop --> Merge to HDR Pro
Via Bridge - Choose photos to merge--> Tools (Tool Bar beside "Adobe CS5 Bridge" at left top of screen; 3rd from end) --> Photoshop --> Merge to HDR
Via inside Photoshop - File --> Automate -->  Merge to HDR
Since this seems to have affected several people and is a simple solution, I have asked the supervisor I spoke to, Laurie, to please have someone in Adobe post this solution.
Hope this helped.

  • Blue or pink stripes appears all over the screen, can't do anything but restart with the button.

    I was watching Netflix and all of a sudden, blue stripes appeared in my screen. Then my page seemed to "split" in two and then come back to normal and then there were pink stripes all over the screen and I couldn't see anything else but stripes. I had to restart with the button. It restart correctly, I have been able to watch Netflix again but only on Chrome because on safari it would happen again everytime. Then, iPhoto opened and here we are again, stripes and image "moving", can't help but wait... Then the screen became all white and nothing. I tried to restart it again with the button, but it didn't even made it to the apple interface, juste the sound and then white screen. What is going on, Please? I really need my computer for work this isn't fun!

    Here is some background

    - i open it in apple standard preview program
    - The problem appaered 6 months ago after and general apple software upgrade.

  • ADE appears, but malfunctions with my Mac

    I have a Nook Color (which is registered) and a Mac running Snow Leopard which is authorized. When I open ADE it recognizes my Nook and if I click on it
    a few of my books appear, but the rest are gray squares with numbers instead of titles. ALL shows nothing as do none of the other shelves. Library view does not open.  I have been unable to download books from the local library or to transfer them from a portable drive I have many on. Does anyone have any suggestions?  BTW, I have deleted and re-downloaded ADE several times. Nook help was NO help.

    Please read these two posts of mine and tell me if this sounds like your issue. I have an open ticket with Adobe regarding this, but the next step is finding time where I am available for a phone call at home to walk me through some steps. Problem is their work hours are the same as mine. So I might be out of luck. I do feel your pain!!!

  • Photoshop CS5 32bit No HDR Pro dialog box after merge

    Hi
    I wanted to merge 3 photos using the HDR fucnction in PS CS5. Everything seems to work perfectly, I select the files and they seem to merge but at the end when the dialog box should pop up and allow me to make adjustments it just closes down. not Photoshop... but the window with whatever it is doing and leaves me with a blank normal PS screen as if I just opened up photoshop. The dialog box never appears. I tried the 64bit version and it does work normally but the 32 bit version does not. I removes any plug-ins I put there and removed my extra actions / plug-ins folder and restarted Photoshop each time but nothing made the dialog box work.
    Any suggestions?

    Hi Mike, you have me at a loss.  I assume we've corresponded in the past.
    I'm sorry that I can't think of another thing to tweak in this case to see if you can get it to work.  I assume you've let it run a long time.
    Do you see any errors in your Windows System or Application Event Logs that might yield more info?

  • Main podcast image appearing but thumbnail/directory image wont display?

    hey all,
    i have my podcast working fine in itunes now and the image works ok on the main podcast page. however i still can't see a smaller version appear when searching for my podcast in the main listings. the smaller version still has the generic purple icon.
    any reason for this?

    Since you upload only the one image, from which both the main one and the small one are generated, I would assume that it is an iTunes Store issue about which you can't directly do anything. I can only suggest you (and everyone else with the same problem) contacts the Support team:

  • Bug: Gray Gamma 2.2 Images Appear Incorrectly in Screen Saver

    I recently noticed that some images in my Apple TV screen saver were appearing distorted -- incorrectly cropped, shimmery, with vertical lines through them. I spent a fair bit of time trying to figure out what the images had in common when I realized they were all black-and-white. I did a Get Info on the images and they ALL used the Color Profile "Gray Gamma 2.2". Opening the images in Adobe Photoshop Elements 10, converting their color profile to sRGB (Image > Convert Color Profile > select sRGB option), and then saving them back out eliminated the problem once I forced the Apple TV to refresh its cache of images.
    Hopefully Apple will realize this problem exists and do something about it -- I am posting it here for the benefit of anyone else who may run into this problem and can't figure out how to solve it.

    "I recently noticed that some images in my Apple TV screen saver were appearing distorted -- incorrectly cropped, shimmery, with vertical lines through them.

    I am having the same problem with certain B&W images - most of these images are fairly old, i.e., 1950s on back.  The only info I can find regarding color is this - Get Info tells me the color space is gray. 
    Now, I can go back to the original photo source and re-download the photo and it displays just fine in Apple TV, whether slideshow or screen saver.  But, it's a lot of work to go back and do that.  Several hundred images worth of work.

  • MacBook Pro won't turn on without pressing 'ctrl' & 'cmd' with power button

    As title says. I have no idea why. When I press the power button nothing happens at all - no lights, no fans no video. Pressing the ctrl & cmd buttons at start-up is the only way it will turn on. It's a 2008 2.5 GHz Intel Core 2 Duo running 10.6.8.
    If it's useful at all, after much to-ing and fro-ing I managed to get Apple to replace the logic board in Oct 2012 (free) under the Nvidia programme. So I'm hoping that it's not the logic board again as there's no way I could afford (nor would it be econmical) to have it replaced.
    Anybody have any ideas on what the problem could be and how I might be able to rectify it?
    Thanks in advance

  • Merge to HDR Pro from LR4

    I am using LR4 and edit/merge to HDR Pro in CS5. The images appear in CS5 as the processing is going on but then it just terminates and the images disappear from CS5.  This is happening on multiple sets of images not just one set.  I don't know if this is part of the problem but I also get a message as the process is starting on LR that I may need Camera Raw Version 7 but I can't find that anywhere.  Any idea what's going on?
    Thanks

    Hi Bill,
    Answers to your questions beow ...
    The one thing that I did not see was your HDD setup, and especially how you have your HDD's allocated, with such things as Scratch Disks, etc. That might be useful knowledge.
    -  Just use a single 1TB hard disk, 516GB used and 398GB free.
    With Win7-64, the 8GB RAM is a bit light, as Win7-64 is a RAM hog, and Scratch Disks will most likely come into play, and especially with HDR.
    - Can't do much about that as 8GB is the MAX on the motherboard. But again don't have any problems in any other areas and if I do Tone Mapping from the Image -> Adjustments -> HDR Tone Mapping ... menu there aren't any issues.
    Now, if you do NOT switch out of PS, while doing an HDR Merge, does it then complete, i.e. is it only when it loses focus, that it hangs?
    - Yes, as long as I don't switch out at all.
    What are your PS Memory and Cache settings?
    - Available RAM 7230, Let Photoshop Use: 4338 (60%) (This is the default setting Photoshop chose)
    - Cache Settings, again default: Cache Levels: 4, Cache Tile Size: 1024K.
    Do you have any active-scanning anti-virus, anti-malware, anti-anything running?
    - Yes, Microsoft Security Essentials
    Is Windows Indexing ON - though with Win7-64, it has become much less of a problem, than with older OS's?
    - Yes Indexing is on, makes no difference if I turn it off.
    What are the Image Size of the HDR Images?
    - As they are from Canon 5D Mk II (ProPhoto RBG, 16 bit, 5616 x 3744 (~21MP) and 300 bit/in) they will open anywhere up to 120MB in TIFF or PSD.
    I am not sure but it seems a little similar to the issue with the CA sliders in LR4 Beta when we reverted back to Process 2010 after upgrading to PV2012 unless there is a memory leak somewhere. Again if I use NIK Software HDR Efex pro I don't seem to have any of these issue - (just aligment and ghosting ).
    Obviously I have a work around by simply not leaving the HDR Merge window before completing the process, just inconvenient.
    Regards, Don

  • Merge to HDR Pro does not work in Photoshop 14.2.1. Image appears black. What is the problem?

    Merge to HDR Pro does not work in Photoshop 14.2.1. Image appears black. What is the problem?

    Attached is screen shot. What happens is I go to File/Automate/Merge to HDR Pro, then select my 3 images, which are flattened psd files (I have tried tifs and jogs too), hit OK, it processes them, but instead of the image appearing, I get this black image. You can see my original images at bottom... jpegs too),

  • Merge to HDR Pro Cs5, results in completely black image.

    Whenever i merge from wither Lightroom or even within CS5 itself, the resulting image is more often than not a 32 bit image which displays as a pure black image. This happens even when i choose 8 bit or 16 bit from within the HDR dialogue box.
    I can choose to remove the 32 bit preview options from the edit menu, and the image will emerge but with no HDR toning. If i try to convert from 32 bit to 8 or 16, i get teh HDR Toning dialogue box but then immediately get the 'not enough RAM' error message.
    any help would be appreciated.

    I can't really help, but I can tell you that I am having similar weird behavior using HDR Pro. I posted several messages here, but with no replies. What happens to me is varied. Sometimes CS5 aligns the images being merged, and sometimes not (using the same images). I also have the same issue of getting a completely black screen when trying to convert to 16 bit. The workaround for me is to close and reopen PS. If I do this the conversion will generally work, but only once. So when doing HDR I have to close and open PS between each HDR session.
    What I notice in both these cases is that there seem to be two steps in the process. In the original merge there is process of making layers and processing each of the images to be merged individually. After that the alignment process begins, with marquees, transforms, crops, etc. In the 16 bit conversion there if first the process of getting to 32-bit options, and then there is a progress bar, which has to complete before the final conversion to a lower bit depth.
    My supposition (and mere supposition it is) is that there is some kind of memory issue here, but that it is not well handled by the program. In CS4 when merging more than three frames, I often encountered out-of-memory errors, which could usually be fixed by changing performance parameters (especially reducing the number of history states). But at least in CS4 there was a clear indication of OOM problems, and that doesn't seem to be the case here.
    I am going to be trying changing various performance parameters, such as memory states, cache levels and tile sizes, and if and when I find anything out I will post results. So far the only thing I have found is that when I am having alignment problems, it is better to open HDR Pro directly in CS5, rather than from Bridge. I don't know why.

  • Uncaught Javascript Exception during create file phase of Merge to HDR Pro.

    Provide a descriptive title that includes your OS information:
    I am trying to create an HDR file from several large merged panoramas, and everything seems to go very well whichever options I select until the point comes when photoshop tries to create the final file. The individual layers of the HDR are 40188x6848 and saved as PSB files, when loaded they fill the entire 8Gb of memory in my machine.
    I am using Windows Vista 64, my graphics card is unsupported and so turned off, I have photoshop setup to use 3 scratch disks, and it appears to be using around 40Gb on the first one and none on others.
    Provide concise, step-by-step details on how to reproduce the issue you are seeing.
    Select File > Automate > Merge to HDR Pro
    Select the 5 HDR layer files, check attempt to automatically align layers
    Make a cup of tea, you're in for a wait.
    Set the EV levels of the files
    Select any options you want from the next panel, I've tried most of them by now.
    Sit back and wait for the following screen:

    If anyone wants the source images let me know and I'll upload them somewhere, though that process will take a couple of days because they're not small.

    Hi Martin,
    Per my private message, the "uncaught JavaScript" exception is something we've seen and have yet to determine a cause or solution.
    Would you please try the following.
    • Do you have following Preferences > Interface settings ON? If they're OFF, does it work if you turn them on?
       - Open Documents as Tabs
       - Enable Floating Document Window Docking
    • Does Merge to HDR work for you at all with smaller files (such as those in the sample set inside the application folder for CS5)?
    • Do other scripts work for you, specifically...
       - File > Scripts > Load Files into Stack... ?
       - File > Automate > Photomerge...?
    • Have you tried restarting with deleted preferences? http://help.adobe.com/en_US/photoshop/cs/using/WSfd1234e1c4b69f30ea53e41001031ab64-74aaa.h tml
    The HDR screen image preview going black is a known issue related to low-system memory conditions that we have been working on a solution for.
    In the meantime, the workaround would be to lower Photoshop's memory usage from your current (72%) down to as low as (50%).
    Purging memory may help: http://help.adobe.com/en_US/photoshop/cs/using/WSfd1234e1c4b69f30ea53e41001031ab64-748aa.h tml
    What was the "entirely new error message"? And is the  Uncaught Exception  the "standard" message?
    Thank,
    Meredith
