I don't get a fluent blending( the transparant 'checkboard layer' merge with  the images instead) of the images i like to blend

I like to fluently blend in more images , When i use the gradient tool and hold down the shift key to draw a line , i see no fluent transition of the two images, instead part of image fades into a tranpanrant ' check board' layer instead.
What goes wrong here?
Blending Multiple Images in Photoshop | IceflowStudios - YouTube
I am refering to the tutorial above..

Yes, I understand it's not always easy to grasp to what goes on on the other side.
I already tried the above though nothing seemed to work
I had to use the paint brush as well but  in reverse setting to get the desired result. If I dont use paint brush the checkboard appears  thus it wont merg/ blend the images.
I don't understand how the guy in the video did this  but with photoshop cc 2014 it seems to work different, apparantly.

  • When will the iphone get audio directions in the maps app like the droid?

    When will the iphone get audio directions in the maps app like the droid?

    We have no idea when, or if, spoken directions will ever be added to the iPhone as a default feature. There are, however, other apps available from third-party developers that provide turn-by-turn directions.

    I have been trying for hours to extend my Extreme Gen 5 network with an Express Gen 2.  But no matter what I do or try, it doesn't work.  What does happen is my internet gets blocked somehow when the Express is online and looks like it's set up perfect and 'green' - but no internet connection for anything even though the Extreme is green and the modem is good.  Once I disconnect the Express, everything is good again.
    I've tried LAN, WAN, though a switch, direct connect, Extreme set to Extend the network, the Express set to be an extension.  Most of the time I get an error trying to update the Express.  But when it seems to be set up perfect, the entire house can't get to the internet.  Just when it looks right, it is so wrong.
    If anyone can give me exact steps (e.g., "...from the Base Station menu, select the Restore Default Setting option" vice "...just restore the defaults..."), I would greatly appreciate it.  I'm left to the conclusion that the Express is faulty.  I've been using Airport Utility 6.2 from Mountain Lion on one computer and Airport Utility 5.6.1 from Snow Leopard on another computer (the latter give more control while the former just want you to 'forget' the Express).

    I finally got it working.  I was trying to set it up ethernet.  My biggest mistake was when the new Express came on, I did not select 'Continue' - I went straight to manual thinking that I would get the most setup options in manual mode.  So everything I initially tried always resulted in 'wireless'.  Even when I would update or restore default settings, the Express would not completely restart. Or sometimes I would get an error. So most of the time I had to unplug it.  So when it came back up, none of my changes were retained. But there were a lot of times when everything was green and appeared to be fine. But anytime the ethernet cable was plugged in, no more internet.
    So here's the weird part.  When I finally tried 'continue' (vice manual), I would get 4 options.  One would be 'ethernet' extended.  So I would select it, it gave me green lights, all looked good, and still the same problem.  This is when I got frustrated.  I thought I had exhausted all possible combinations.
    But somehow when trying continue again after another restore, I only got 3 options.  One was the same ethernet extended option (can't remember what the missing 4th one was).  And this time it worked - it gave me the big green circle with the checkmark saying it was successful.  I don't know what I did different, but I know now that it won't work if 4 options come up to choose from.  It will work if only 3 options come up.  And success if only verified by the big checkmark.  Had anyone anywhere said the checkmark declaring success is validation, then maybe I wouldn't have gone down so many rabbit holes thinking it should have been successful.
    As for which Airport Utility I prefer, 6.2 looks nice, but it would just ignore the Express and would want me to 'forget' it and would not let me edit it.  Airport Utility 5.6.1 was the one that I ended up using the most and finally had success with.  It still strikes me as odd that there is no manually way to pick ethernet, it can only be choosen following a 'restore defaults', and only from the 3-option list (the 4-option list had the same ethernet choice, but it no worky).
    Thanks for the response.  I really do appreciate it.
    Aiport Extreme Gen5 - internet access and router
    Airport Express Gen2 - connected via ethernet, extending my wireless
    - configured while connect directly to the Extreme, but now on a switch (16-port hub)
    Using Airport 5.6.1
    1) Restore Defaults from Base Station menu
    2) Following restart, Select Continue
    3) Of the 3 option presented, select 'ethernet.... extend network...'
      - if 4 options are present, may not work
    4) Wait for the green circle with the big white checkmark.
    5) Connected Express to the switch where a cable went to other end of house - works.
    Dead-zone went from 2mbps to 24mbps.
    I probably spent 4 hours chasing my tail in anger.  The correct way took about 5 minutes total.
    Thanks again.

  • Does the 3G get better signal in the dock? (like the orignal iPhone)

    For those of you who have the 3G, do you find that you get more bars when the iPhone is sitting in its dock? This has always been the case for the original iPhone.

    Hi elmnt61,
    I recently took an hour drive to the nearest Apple Store to talk about my iPhone 3G reception problems at the genius bar only to be told I needed to make an appointment. So as not to be a totally wasted trip, I picked up a couple of accessories. One of my purchases was the iPhone 3G Dock. I was pleasantly surprised to learn that it boosted my nearly nonexistent signal at home to two or three bars. This occurs whether it is plugged in or not, as I get the same benefit when the phone is just in the dock with no cable attached. I can use it as a stand and easily use the speakerphone feature and plug it in when the phone needs charging.

  • Movie icons don't get a preview on the desktop like jpegs do.

    Hi,
    I have .jpeg, .wmv and .mov files on my dektop and have set up the desktop so that all icons get a preview pic. But only the jpegs seem to show the preview pic. The movie files simply show a white and blue 'Q movie' icon. Sometimes they show the preview of the movie but more often than not they display the default 'Q movie' icon.
    Anyone know how I can remedy this please?
    Thanks.

    shamswahid,
    It's all about what can be viewed natively in Quicktime, and what cannot. WMVs, for example, require that the "Flip4Mac" components be installed. This allows Quicktime to open and play the files, but it does nothing for previews in the Finder.
    Similarly, if a file requires that a third-party codec be installed in order for Quicktime to play the file, previews will probably not be generated.

  • When I click on check updates I don't get a message just the thinking icon and then nothing

    I have version 1.0.1 and I want to upgrade. The reason I haven't done it yet is because I recently bought the phone second hand. But I am unable to update it and what happens is the circular icon indicating that something is happening shows up, then disappears and there is no message about updating. If I cannot upgrade it, is there some other way to upgrade the browser because I cannot use it properly at the moment.
    Thanks

    Hi
    Thanks for the help. Do you think I could ask what this means "Take out SIM card and check whether update.zip of SD card is in accordance with
    to be upgraded mobile phone; copying update package to update.zip file before upgrade."??? Or should I start a new thread for that. It is kind of vague instructions but maybe I missing something, for example an SD card that was made for the phone and I am only use one that I found in my drawer that had some music on it...
    Thanks again

  • Since the last update of my iphone4 I don't get anymore notifications on messages (sms)

    Since the last update of my iphone4 I don't get anymore notifications on messages (sms);Can you help me please ??

    Hello Omar31,
    It sounds like you are not getting notified when recieving a text message on your phone. I recommend starting by verifying that Messages is set up for notifications with:
    Check Settings > Notification Center to ensure that the app is configured for notifications. If notifications do not appear in the Notification Center, verify that the Notification Center setting for the app is enabled.
    From: iOS: Understanding notifications
              http://support.apple.com/kb/ht3576
    If Messages is configured properly, try closing all the running apps on the phone:
    iOS: Force an app to close
    http://support.apple.com/kb/ht5137
    Double-click the Home button.
    Swipe left or right until you have located the app you wish to close.
    Swipe the app up to close it.
    When you have done that and restart the phone and test the issue again:
    iOS: Turning off and on (restarting) and resetting
