How do I restore my brush presets?

My brush presets are gone. How do i retore them?

Hello and welcome!
Select the brush preset icon. you can also access it by going to Window > Brush Presets.
This brings up the Brush Preset window. Click the down arrow on the right side, as shown below. Select "Reset Brushes". This should reset your brushes.
Please post back if you have any questions.

How do I keep watermarks and presets ( with their order ) synched between computers

I have a desktop which I use for heavy picture editing and a mac book air that I use for on the fly picture editing to show clients during photo trips.
I want to figure out a way for keeping my watermarks and presets ( with their order and folders I created on my desktop ) synched on my laptop.
What is the best way of doing this? If keeping it synched is not possible, how do you advise importing them to my laptop?
Thanks for the support,
JP Jacobsen

Ps: It is very important that the presets come on the same order and folders I re-arranged them in my desktop.

Can't keep brush presets in preferred size order

I know this is anal, but I like to keep my brush presets arranged in order of size from larger to smaller, top to bottom. Now, after using CS3 for about 6 months, then adding OS 10.5.5, I can't keep them in order. It's like the battery is dying or something. Every time I start up Photoshop, that is every day, I have to go into the Presets Manager and rearrange everything all over again. It's driving me crazy. Note: they always de-arrange into the same order; maybe it's the order I originally wrote them in. I don't know. I don't care. What do I have to do? I'm on a G5 PM 2GHz w/ 1.5 GB RAM.

Thanks for the post. I dug in a bit further. To recap: I've arranged the tool/brush presets just so. If I quit Photoshop, restart or shutdown, upon start, the presets have reverted to a different order. Always the same order, just not the order I left them in. Every single time. The battery is fine. I tested it. Time and date are fine, and all other PRAM details are OK. I keep a Test User, tried that, and I get the same problem. I don't use the bracket keys. I Called Adobe TS and the agent assured me, after on-the-spot testing, that no version of CS in combo with Tiger or Leopard has EVER maintained a list of brush presets in a specific order. All I can say to that is, quote: "Horse puckey", unquote. IF that is the case, then A: What the heck is the Preset Manager for? B: what was happening here in my computer for the past ten years or so? and C: If the Preset Manager can manage to keep the brush SIZE presets arranged in the user-defined sequence ad nauseum, why is it impossible to keep the brush TOOL presets in a user-defined sequence? Can anybody help? I'm getting tired of poking the Preset Manager every day.

How to Keep Custom Brushes in the Brush Panel Flyout Menu?

So I have a set of brushes that I mostly commonly use. However, I still use other brushes on occasion. When I load those brushes, my custom brush set doesn't stay in the flyout menu and I have no choice but to find the brush file and reload it. Every time.
It's getting to be a pain in the butt, so I'm wondering if there is a way to permanently keep your custom brush set in the flyout menu of the brush panel I've attached a screen shot in case what I wanted wasn't quite clear! I want my custom brushes to go where the green area is point.
Also I'm running a Japanese version of PS, but I'm pretty sure almost all the menu places remain the same. I translated some of the menu (although it might not be the exact same as the US CS6, but if you give me instructions, I'm pretty sure I can figure it out!)

Thanks! You're a life saver

Looks like you using mac os x?
There are two places you can put your brush presets file:
1. /Macintosh HD /Applications/Adobe Photoshop CS6/Presets/Brushes
2. /Users/User Name/Library/Application Support/Adobe/Adobe Photoshop CS6/Presets/Brushes
The difference is that the ones in the cs6 application folder show in your red area and the ones in the library show up below the red area with a separator line

[Photoshop CS6] Windows 7 - How to add "Brush Angle" circle to Brush Preset

How do I add this:
To here:
Thanks.

Reset your Brushes so you just have the default set loaded.
Set up a new brush using the Brush Presets panel. (Probably set Angle Jitter to 'Pen Tilt' but we don't know exactly what you are trying to achieve.)
Open the brushes panel, and click on the little cog icon, and then on New Brush preset. Give your new brush a meaningful name.
Last thing to do is 'Save brushes' in the same menu, and you new preset will always load with the default brush set. Or save it with a custom brush set. Whatever works best for you.

How to save tool presets as brush presets?

I have some tool presets that would be very useful, but I normally just go to brush presets, which i have organized and which provide greater flexibility. Is there a way to turn "tool" into a "brush"? Going through defining brush presets, forced me to adjust all kind of things, but as tool presets they are already perfect. There has to be a way to do it easier! Hope you can help.

I'll ad a giant AOL 'Me Too' to that Gene. I don't blame Lynda and Bruce when there is $1.5b on the table, but I think it a sad reflection on our times that a dot.com that has questionable worth to our society, can afford to pay so much money for a genuinely useful service like Lynda.com. Apparently they started with $20k and have built it up with no outside help, so they are sitting pretty right now.
My concern is that the focus of Lynda.com does not shift even remotely towards business type courses, and away from creative. BTW I am absolutely loving my Lynda subscription. It seems that no matter what the subject, if you ever get stuck on something, there is a world class course to put you straight. As regards Photoshop, I considered myself at least an expert, yet I have been able to find game changing new tips on almost a daily basis. Or sometimes just a better way of doing things. It absolutely helps to go into the expert courses with a good working knowledge, because it means you pick up the content straight away, and hopefully remember it.
Somebody was smiling down on me the day I was about to commit $250 for a year's subscription, and literally as I sat down at the computer, there was a ping to tell me a new email had arrived, and it turned out to be offering that same subscription for $150. I suspect the apparent coincidence was driven by my recent visits to the site, but if that email had arrived ten minutes latter, I'd have been down a $100. :-)

Brushes Missing in Photoshop CC - How Do I properly install Brushes in Photoshop CC?

Hi, I bought some cool brushes for Photoshop CC and installed them, but a few days later I noticed they are no longer available in my brush presets. Where could they have gone? I did not reinstall Photoshop or do anything except quit Photoshop.
Question:
Can someone please give me a link or tell me how to properly install brushes (.tpl files) in Photoshop CC so they stay loaded in Photoshop. I also want to add to these brushes and keep a folder o my Mac so I can back them up. Any tips are appreciated. Thanks.

Ronald Keller wrote:
Your question confuses me: .tpl are not brushes. Brushes have an .abr extension.
So how did you install the brushes you bought? Maybe we can find out what went wrong?
Ronald, as you'll know .tpl files are tool presets. Using a tool preset as opposed to a normal brush preset, lets you save additional features that are not available with a regular .abr file. I don't know if he pioneered the technique, but John Derry is the person who introduced it to me via one of his Lynda.com tutorials.
You can get a heads up from here, but I am sure Google will find more links.
John Nack on Adobe : New Photoshop brushes from John Derry
This is a JPG version of the PDF instructions for installing John's Brush tool presets. Note that this particular set were for CS6, and I was only able to get about half of them working with 2014.2.2 It should at least give the OP the file locations for a manual install. Note also, you may need to click on the image to open it at full size, and that the file locations are not necessarily the same for CC.

FAQ: How do I migrate my saved presets from an earlier version of Photoshop or import/export them?

You now have the option to migrate presets from a previous version, export presets and to save to a directory as a zip file (great for instructors).
Preset Migration migrates your saved presets, not your preferences. The message says "Would you like to migrate presets from the following versions?" It simply carries on the preset files you have already saved (things like Brush Tips, HDR Toning presets, Curve presets, Styles etc.) to CS6.
HOW TO USE PHOTOSHOP CS6 AUTOMATED PRESET MIGRATION
Photoshop CS6 offers the great new functionality of automated preset migration for your custom presets from Photoshop versions as far back as CS3.
When Photoshop CS6 launches for the first time, it checks for previous installations of Photoshop on the computer to see if there are custom presets that need to be migrated. Photoshop looks in each of these presets folders for your saved custom preset files that it can migrate.
Preset migration script copies all the files in user preset folders of older versions. If there are more than one preset files with the same name, presets from the newer version will be given priority. These types of presets will be migrated by the script:
3DLUTs, Actions, Black and White, Brushes, Channel Mixer, Color Books, Color Swatches, Contours, Curves, Custom Shapes, Deco, Duotones, Exposure, Flash 3D, Gradients, HDR Toning, Hue and Saturation, Levels, Lighting Effects, Lights, Materials, Meshes, Optimized Colors, Optimized Output Settings, Optimized Settings, Patterns, Render Settings, Repousse, Scripts, Styles, Tools, Video, Volumes, Widgets, Zoomify, and Workspaces
If this is not your first launch and you would like Photoshop to look for presets,
Choose Edit > Presets > Migrate Presets
When Photoshop notices that you have custom presets saved in their appropriate folders it will give the message "Would you like to migrate presets from the following versions?"
Choose Yes. Photoshop will begin the preset migration script.
When the migration has completed Photoshop will pop up another message saying:
"Preset files from older versions successfully migrated"
In order to use your newly migrated presets, you must restart Photoshop.
If you had Photoshop CS6 beta installed and have saved custom presets, you will need to export those presets before uninstalling the previous version and installing the release version of Photoshop CS6.
HOW TO SAVE PRESETS
For PS, check that you have saved all your presets using:
Edit>Preset Manager... (in previous versions) Edit>Presets>Preset Manager... (in CS6)
HOW TO IMPORT AND EXPORT PRESETS
In the main PS menu,
Choose Edit > Presets > Export/Import Presets
In this dialog you can export the presets and then import them when you load the new version using the same Export/Import dialog.
If you have gone through the automated preset migration and notice that some of your presets didn't get migrated with the rest, make sure you have exported your presets to their default folders.
PRESET FILE LOCATIONS:
(Note that there are two different folder locations for presets, one for application provided default presets, and one for user created preset files)
These are the presets that are unique to each user on the computer. These can be migrated automatically: (this is the location that the user should save their personal presets in)
Windows: Users/[user name]/AppData/Roaming/Adobe/Adobe Photoshop CS6/Presets
Mac: Users/[Username]/Library/Application Support/Adobe/Adobe Photoshop CS6/Presets
These are the default presets that ship with Photoshop. These presets can be imported but will not copy over using the migrate feature because each version of Photoshop will install defaults for that version.
Windows 64 bit:
    [Hard Drive]:\Program Files\Adobe\Adobe Photoshop CS6 (64 Bit)\Presets
WindowsXP and Windows7 32 bit:
      [Hard Drive]:\Program Files (x86)\Adobe\Adobe Photoshop CS6\Presets
Mac:
    [Hard Drive]/Applications/Adobe Photoshop CS6/Presets
Frequently used preset filename extensions:
ABR Brush preset
ACO Swatch preset
ASL Style preset
ATN Action preset
CSH Custom Shape preset
GRD Gradient preset
PAT Pattern preset
SHC Contour preset

Do you have an iPhoto Library from the old machine? If you have then simply open it - there's no importing involved.
Hold down the option (or alt) key key and launch iPhoto. From the resulting menu select 'Choose Library'
If you don't have an actual library there is no way to do what you want.

Exported video size smaller than original video size. How do I keep the original size?

I exporting a video from Adobe Premiere CS6 today, and I noticed the video was about 1/2 times smaller than the original video I put in. I then uploaded the video on YouTube, and the size was still the same. I tried to change the preset to 1080p 29.97, 1080p 25, etc. and the same with 720p, and 480p, but the size only changed slightly.

Stroke thumbnail view in brush presets panel in CS6 doesn't represent pressure sensitivity

Everytime I open photoshop the stroke thumbnail shows up with lost settings. I can hover my pen over brush presets and press ctrl+F1 and it will change back but when i open up photoshop cs6 it does not show what the brush setting are with the stroke thumnail and I have to do it again. I know how to correct it temporarily but I would like a permanent fix for this as it is quite annoying. I have tried to open it with just my pen from my tablet and it does not help. I am running windows 7. cintiq tablet.

Hey JJMack!
Thank you for your response! Unfortunately that doesn't seem to be my issue. I actually think I may be running into a bug with PS6. It seems like the stroke thumbnail preview might not be receiving the information that there is pressure sensitivity turn on my cintiq.
Here is an example below..
As you can see here the brush I have selected obviously has pressure sensitivity and PS6 is recognizing that. But for some reason that information is not being communicated to the stroke thumbnail preview.
What's even weirder is when you go into that brush's presets the preview below shows the stroke thumbnail fine!
I am wondering if maybe I have some weird preference turned on hidden away somewhere... or if this is an actual bug with the program.
thanks guys!

How do I keep the original pre-RAW preview exposure ?

IF I understand it when I imort a RAW "NEF file from my Nikon, LIghtroom shows a preview that is a jpeg exposre, something equivalent to a point and shoot photo. Then after processing the info from the RAW file, it shows the unprocessed image. Typically, this image for me becomes unsaturated and less colorful. Although I want to process "some" of my photos, I like some of the point and shoot images, and I'm wondering how do you keep the original exposiure that LIghtroom shows before showing the RAW unprocessed image?
When I'm taking photos just to archive a thing, I like the advanced point and shoot saturated image. When I want to be artistic, I prefer to process them myself. Is there a setting that will allow me to keep the preview look?

Aside from what Lee Jay said (which is technically accurate) the best thing you can do is to learn how to quickly make image adjustments and if you find you are making the same adjustments all the time, create a preset or consider making a new Default tone/color adjustment for your images. The fact is that the EFIX JPEG is the camera maker's interpretation of the raw image. It's neither accurate nor sacrosanct. It's simply a different rendering of your raw data. You can look at using different DNG profiles (in the Camera Calibrate panel) to alter the color rendering and adjust your tone controls to taste and make a preset or a new Default.
But in answer to your main question can you use those JPEG previews as a basis for LR, no other than you make the manual adjustments yourself...

Using brush presets in Flash...possible?

With the stree of "integration" with the
CS3 suite of products, is it possible to use brushes from photoshop
and import them somehow to be used in Flash?
Basically, I have some great brushes in photoshop that I
would like to use in Flash. How can this be accomplished? In the
Flash help file, searching for BRUSH, I read what I interpretted to
be that Flash CS3 could use brush presets. But I saw no way to
import them, nor anyplace to change the brush presets.
Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Pressure and tilt options for brush do not come up till you place your pen on the tablet and click on the stage.Once clicked they start appearing ,sometimes these options are hidden, you can resize your tools panel to see the options.And slow response is a known issue and we are tracking it.You can refer to this thread for more details :http://forums.adobe.com/message/5454376#5454376.

Photoshop CS6 Brush Preset Picker Problem

Hello
I'd like to know if it's possible to tidy up my PSCS 6 Brush Preset Picker? Please see image.
My brushes are installed here: C:/Program Files/Adobe/Adobe Photoshop CS6 (64bit)/Presets/Brushes
I can't seem to find any other location that would be causing this issue. It's only happened since I installed CS6.
Thanks for any help or advice
Diane

Thanks for the response. I realise there are duplicates. My question is how do I delete the duplicates from the picker? They're aren't duplicates in the actual folders. I've also organised the brushes into folders, restarted photoshop, rebooted and the problem is the same.
Anyone know where the duplicates might be located on my pc? Or how to delete them in the picker?
Thanks
