How can the adjustment brushes in lightroom 3 be fixed?

I have no idea how this works. The adjustment brush in lightroom 3 has stopped working. Using a mac. Customer support said if I pay $39 they might be able to fix the problem, but its better to ask on the forums. Any suggestions on how to fix this?

A quick guess or two, since you haven't really explained the symptoms.
Are your Flow and Density sliders set to something reasonable?
Try hitting the H (for hide) key.
Is the Size slider set to something large enough?
I'll only charge you $25.

The adjustment brush in Lightroom does not work

The lightroom brush does not work. The radial filter and graduated filters work. How can I correct this?

What isn't working? Explain a little bit about the problem. Also, what OS, what version of Lightroom, a few details to help us understand your situation really helps. If the problem is that you can't see the tool when it's activated, try pressing the H key which is the toggle switch to hide/show the tool. Another thing to look at is the the flow adjustment on the tool. Without more information, I could guess and guess and guess. But I would just be wasting my time and yours.

Can the adjustment brush be set to mask for highlights, mid tones, or shadows individually?

I am a recent convert from Apple Aperture, where one can brush adjustment masks onto an images highlights, mid tones, or shadows individually. Can this be done in Lightroom? It makes adjustments around trees, for instance, so easy to do precisely...
Thanks!

The answer to your question is:
No. (masking based on specified tonal range(s) is not supported).
And, yes - auto-masking brush is tone-sensitive and will mask, to some extent, based on tone (also color, I think, and who knows what else.. - it doesn't work very well in my opinion).
If this does not sufficiently answer your question, then perhaps you need to elaborate and clarify the question.

How can the Add This Facebook window issue be fixed?

The problem I run into is when clicking on the "Share Link" Facebook button under the Add This menu. After clicking on it, it will grey out for a little, but then the window never disappears and eventually the "Share Link" button goes back to the normal blue color. I do not have this issue on my Chrome or Opera browsers. I already spoke to Add This support and they said no issues on their end and it's a bug with Firefox. What is the problem and how can it be resolved?

How can the user authorization "Display , not Edit" be fixed?

Hi,
I need to give users the authorization to "DISPLAY" a transaction (e.g. VKM1). They are not allowed to "EDIT" or "RELEASE DOCUMENTS".
How can I do that?
Thank you for your feedback.
Kind regards,
Linda

for every transaction code there will be objects which is linked to the transactions code.
For ex:- For VKM1 Transaction code there are two objects (V_KNKK_FRE, V_VBUK_FRE) with activity 03(display) and 23(maintain). So, give the authorisation activity 03 to the transaction. So, users can able to see the data but not having the authorisation to release or maintain.

Lightroom 4.3 quiting when using the adjustment brush

Whenever I use the adjustment Brush in Lightroom 4.3 for Mac lightroom quits I have had no issues with any previous versions, back to lightroom 3. Is anyone else having this issue?

I suppose so. But the thing is that 4.2 runs just fine.
But here you go:
Processor 2.53 GHz Intel Core 2 Duo
Memory 4 GB 1067 MHz DDR3
Graphics NVIDIA GeForce 9400M 256 MB
A bit oldish but I think it's fine (is that what you meant by set up? cuz I'm not entirely sure)
I used the CD to install the first version 4.1 and just followed the instructions and that's what I do every time there's an update/upgrade.
The catalog was suggested by the instructions to be put in the pictures file, so I did. and the images are there too. The other "technical" files that are related to how the software operates are located in the main Preferences folder (where all similar folders from other software are normally located"
Thank you so much for taking the time to look at it. Do let me know if you have any other questions
Cheers

Hi! I have a problem with the adjustment brush some are not there anymore like soften skin, how i can fix that?

Hi! I have a problem with the adjustment brush some are not there anymore like soften skin, how i can fix that?

Hi dear,
it's funny, real funny.
I think the programmes have diffrent sound system from the normal calls system.
All you need to do is to turn the sound up from the bottom in the phone side in the time you're making or recieving the call.
you'll hear the sound.
I hope that would help.
All the best

I'm using Lightroom cc, I'm trying to create a develop preset. I'm making changes to one photo that I want to apply to many other photos, one of the changes is to blur the background using the adjustment brush. When I am blurring I am going over the photo

I'm using Lightroom cc, I'm trying to create a develop preset. I'm making changes to one photo that I want to apply to many other photos, one of the changes is to blur the background using the adjustment brush. When I am blurring I am going over the photo several times, when I go to create the preset the adjustment brush is not an option to check. How do I add the adjustment brush to the develop presets. Thanks Ron.

The adjustment brush cannot be added to a develop preset.
If you can replace the adjustment brush with a gradient filter or radial filter, you can add those to a dev preset.
If a gradient filter or radial filter is not an option for you, you can at least create an adjustment preset to remember your brush settings.

How do I use the adjustment brush to mask and not turn my item green?

I have shot some products for my web site. I need completely white backgrounds. I have tried to mask the product and lighten the whites, but when I click done, my product has turned very green.
Why? How do you use the brush? Also, where is the invert to make this easier on me?
Kind of urgent, I need to get these items on my site already.
I know the answer is simple... I just don't know what it is.
Thanks

Have you tried without the adjustment brush, by simply adjusting white balance from the basic tab in develop?
Click on the eye dropper tool and then click on a neutral gray color. Use the background if it is neutral rather than white. You may need to keep selecting the eye dropper to click in a few different places for best results.
If you decide to use the adjustment brush you can show or hide the mask. Uncheck the mask when you have finished painting; then use the sliders, starting with tint and temperature.

How can I adjust the skin color of only one person in the photo (Elements 11)

How can I adjust the skin color of only one person in the photo (Elements 11)?
Thanks for your help.

From your question, I assume you know how to do it for all persons :
Menu : Enhance/Adjust color/adjust color for skin tones
So what you have to do is to do the color correction on a layer copy. Concentrate on the person to enhance and ignore the rest of the picture.
When you are satisfied, add a mask to the layer copy and fill it with black.
Set your foreground color to white
In the layer palette, click on the mask icon on the right of the layer icon.
Then use a brush to paint white on the skin of the person to reveal the correction.

Continual problem with the Adjustment brush in both Lightroom 3 and Lightroom 4

The Adjustment brush in both Lightroom 3 and Lightroom 4 continually stops functioning correctly - that is any adjustment made using the sliders in the Adjustment Brush panel does not make an adjustment on the image. Normally I would go to Library / Preferences [on my iMac OSX 10.6.8], remove the com.adobe.Lightroom3.plist file and restart Lightroom. However I have gone to Library/Preferences and there is no listing of any Lightroom 3 plist files, nor for that matter any adobe Photoshop CS5 plist files or any adobe Lightroom 4 plist files. I have tried restarting the iMac but to no avail - no help at all! I have no idea how to remedy the situation as I have no idea where the plist files have gone!!!
Incidentally I have a new iMac 27" OSX 10.8 - same problem with the Adjustment Brush there, but so far the plist files haven't disappeared into the ether somewhere!
Help would be appreciated ...
Many thanks

Hi Jussi
I tried changing to the B brush set, and the Adjustment Brush worked OK in there for a while - but now I have the same problem with the B brush set too. It appears to happen instantly - one minute they're working, the next minute they're not!! For example, I was adjusting Brightening using the Adjustment Brush and I literally made an adjustment on one image, then went back into the same image seconds later to make a further Brightening adjustment and the brush wasn't working - well, that is, not unless I pushed the slider to something like 160 and then I got minimal adjustment!!! I am becoming increasingly frustrated .. I have literally worked for months with no problems, now it's almost every day!!

Lightroom crashes when using the Adjustment Brush

everytime i try to use the adjustment brush it crashes lightroom? help
Message title was edited by: Brett N

Hey Brett,
Thank you for your quick respond
Well, there was a message after it crashed asking me if I want to report or send an email, which I did. Then it says that Adobe is an able to know the problem. Maybe this is the message you are talking about.
I have imported the same file from another source, and to a new catalog. same thing. In fact, I managed to apply both tools before it crashes, now every time I go to the same photo and just zoom in and out, it crashes.
I then uninstalled 4.3 and downgraded to 4.2. It works fine with this version (even the same old file that caused everything) it is just really slow version. 4.1 (straight from the CD) was REALLY fast and with no issues.. or maybe I didn't get to push it to its limits. 4.3 is slower but crashes. 4.2 is very slow but never crashes.
I'm saying that after uninstalling and reinstalling all these versions couple of times each.
I was considering upgrading my OS to 10.8.3 (even though I really don't want to) just to see if I can run 4.3 properly. But then I read that 4.3 is widely problematic and that is why 4.4 is coming out so soon.
What do you suggest? Should I stick with 4.2 for the time being? Just received a reply from another staff member saying that I should just wait for 4.4 Is there any time frame to the release?
Sorry for making it this long..
Much obliged
Ab

We can't do darker, but try Shift-O to cycle through other colours.

Reinstalling The Skin Soften Adjustment Brush in Lightroom 3.5

Last week I accidentally deleted the "Skin Soften" adjustment brush in Lightroom 3.3. I upgraded to Lightroom 3.5 hoping it would reinstall the adjustment brush, but no such luck. I am having trouble locating information and understanding how to reinstall this brush. If anyone could help me do this, it would be much appreciated. Thanks!

Go to Preferences, Presets Tab, and click "Restore Local Adjustment Presets".
