Issues with colour picker after installing latest updates

I’ve just updated my Photoshop (CS6)  but now whenever I use it I can’t bring up the colour picker panel. When I try, Nothing happens and everything is else is disabled- I can’t click on tools, or layers, or anything from the dropdown menus. I can’t even minimize or quit the program!
Has any one else experienced this? Or knows how to fix it? I can't use it like this.
I’ve restarted photoshop several times, restarted my computer and this still happens every time I click on the colour swatch to bring up the picker.
I’m running on Windows.
Any help would be great.

It sounds like the color picker is opening off screen.
Do you have or had dual monitors?
You should be able to hit the escape or enter button to cancel out of the color picker.
I would try resetting the photoshop cs6 preferences by holding down the Shift+Alt+Ctrl keys just after starting the launch
of photoshop cs6 and keep holding the keys down until you get a dialog asking if you want to delete the photoshop
settings file and then press Yes because yoy do.

    Possible iTunes issue:
    Try the following after adding photos.
    Go to file
    Then Home Sharing
    Select photos to share
    Click on All Photos already selected Do anyway
    When Apply turns black click on Apply
    Now go to Apple TV to see if photos there
    Or restart iTunes.
    Works for me every time photos do not appear on my Apple TV 3
    Hopefully will work for you.

  • Saving Issues after installing latest update

    Today, after installing an update to my Acrobat XI Standard, I am getting an error message when trying to save .pdfs from an email to my server. The error message is: The document could not be saved. There was a problem reading this document (21). Any way to fix this?

    Hi JasBell,
    Which server are you trying to save to?
    What happens if you copy the document to the local computer first and then copy to the server?

  • Error message after installing latest update

    Since installing latest update 11.0.2.26, I am receiving error message:   An unknown error occurred (-42110)
    Itunes does work, however, when I close this message down.
    Can anything be done?  What does it mean?  Am I better off just holding out until the next update and hope it fixes itself?

    Removing the SC Info folder as per the "Error 3001," "-42110," or "5103" section in the Specific Conditions and Alert Messages: (Mac OS X / Windows) section of the following document seems to help most folks reporting the iTunes launch 42110s:

  • After installing latest update Realplayer recording no longer works, I think Mozila is using a library file with the same name

    After installing the latest update to Firefox onto Vista operating system the record part of real player no longer works, I think Mozila and Real are using a library file with the same name and the Mozila update is overwriting a Realplayer library file.

    I was giong to say, "Help me, Adobe Joe Kenobi", but it looks like you're growing a beard waiting for an answer, too.
    The same thing happened to me today. I trusted the "update" message since it was from Adobe, and apprently did so at my own peril. Now I get the "failed to load Core dll" message with a secondary reference to a memory address.
    Just an observation, but what good are these forums when there are no answers? I see this problem as "Caused by Adobe Update", and would expect them to troublshoot and offer up a remedy. Since you've been waiting over two months with no response, I suppose it's time to trek off wasting more of my precious time to fix their problem. If I find the solution, I'll post it back to you.
    May the Force be with you.

  • G4 will not boot up after installing latest update

    Just installed latest OS 10 update (10.4.8 or 9?) Mac will not boot up. The ring sounds on start up and the apple shows on video but it never gets to the rotating circle. It has been over an hour. I have restarted twice to no avail. I have also disconnect all peripheral. Do you have any suggestions as to what to do next?

    Hi-
    Welcome to Discussions!
    Try a boot in safe mode (startup holding"shift" key after chime). This will help determine if you have conflicting drivers, fonts,etc. present, and helps bypass damaged software components:
    http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=107393
    If successful, run Disk Utility. If not, try a single user boot, and run fsck:
    http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=106214
    Alternatively, boot from your OS install disk, and run Disk Utility.
    Post back with your results, please!

  • After installing latest update Macbook won't start up.

    After installing the latest update my macbook won't start up. Instead of the login screen I get a flashing map icon with a question mark. My uncle says that means it can't find the startup disk and I had to startup from the install disk holding C but it didn't work. I'm quite desperate because I need my macbook for school (writing & producing music). I type this on a friend's computer... How can I fix this? Or do I really have to go to a mac store and part from my macbook for an unknown time...? :'(
    I don't exactly know what version I have (can't check it now either) but it's at least 10.6.something and I always install the updates...

    Hi
    Anything unusual happen during the 10.5.3 update installation phase?
    What type of iMac are you using? Your tag says G5 but also Intel core processors - it can't be both.
    Try this:
    -First unplug your computer and wait 10 minutes
    -Next, simultaneously reinsert the power cord while pressing the power button for 5 seconds then release
    -Press the power button again to start the computer - this resets the computer's system management unit (SMU) which controls your machines power functions.
    -Next, press/hold down the P/R/option/command keys for 3 Apple chimes. This clears the machine's PRAM. After the 3rd chime release those keys and immediately hold down the Shift key to put the machine into Safe User Mode
    -If you get to a log-in screen (may take several minutes as repair functions are occurring on the boot), log-in. When the login is complete, restart the computer as usual.
    If no go, I suggest taking the machine to a certified Apple tech, or if you live near an Apple store to the Genius Bar.

  • HP Power Advisor has stopped working after installing latest updates

    I have been using HP Power Advisor successfully on my Lenovo X230 running Windows 7.  After installing the latest Power Advisor updates it no longer works.  I can select a voltage from the dropdown on the Input Voltage screen but nothing happens when I click on the Go button, as if it is disabled.  I've tried re-installing the download package which works fine but it stops working again as soon as I install the latest updates.  Any ideas how to solve this?

    Well on the website for HP power Advisor, it specifically says, 
    "Accurately estimate power consumption of your HP server and storage products"
    There could be many different things interrupting your use of the program, but I'm going to say that maybe your largest problem with using the HP software designed for HP machines is your Lenovo.
    Sorry,
    Good Luck!
    Did I help you? Please give me a Thumbs up to help let others know!

  • Are yo having any issues with mac os x the latest update heres the fix

    ok a lot of people have had issues with installing the update via the software update option in mac os x tiger now let me explain something first it is not apples fault they did not expect that tons of people would be downloading this update at once which caused problems
    some of the issues people have run into are
    1.the cd rom after the update the superdrive or regular super drive will not read cds
    2.your photoshop application stops working or any adobe product stops working
    now the simple fix is this
    go online to apple.com select the download section in the support area of this web page once this is done 
    go and download the update manually and run the update manually this will correct any issues with the update including cd rom drive errors and even adobe product errors

    problems
    Since Apple know exactly how many systems are out there, have experienced download demands from previous update releases, they very clearly know the kind of demand there will be when a new update for MacOS is released. The issues with Software Update are nothing to do with this - and indeed, historically there have always appeared to be a small proportion of systems that have not functioned correctly with a MacOS update - a quick perusal of MacFixit going back some years would evidence the fact.
    When Software Update downloads the wrong components, it's not volume of traffic that causes it, but that when Software Update examines the specific system, it finds components that cause it to misidentify it.
    some of the issues people have run into are
    1.the cd rom after the update the superdrive or
    regular super drive will not read cds
    2.your photoshop application stops working or any
    adobe product stops working
    There are many reasons users may suffer these, and similar (and very DISsimilar) issues, not just from the update itself, but prebinding, permissions, system caches, font files, plists....
    now the simple fix is this
    go online to apple.com select the download section in
    the support area of this web page once this is done 
    go and download the update manually and run the

    You omitted to mention WHICH update file to download - which is the critical part of the advice. Users who experience problems with the update as downloaded by Software Update, should download the 10.4.8 'Combi' update file from the apple/support/downloads page. The combi (combined) update contains the entire thing, not just the bits tailored to what Software Update takes to be the specific system. There are two versions of this file - one for PPC systems and one for Intel - it's important of course to select the correct one for the type of system, being used.
    People often say that the Combi update fixes their problem when in fact what may well be happening is that by installing the combi update version, it overwrites faulty files (plists for example) that had caused the problem the user experienced. Installing this version of the update can certainly RESOLVE these kind of problems, but is not the only way to do so.
    Simple and easy when it works - undoubtedly so.

  • Issue with schema publishing after installing Universal Records Management

    Installing URM over Content Server has been by far the most random experience I've had so far with any technology... Out of 6 installation attemts of URM, only 1 has been entirely successful.... with no errors.... the rest have errors that makes it impossible to work with the product... The funny thing is that the installation is nothing more than the installation of two components via Component Manager, with a few non-important options in the middle that have always been set to the same value...
    First of all, in the installation guide of URM there are no mentions of required avaliable space in the Database Tablespace (idc_system) and in about half of our attempts (yes the other half didn't generate issues with this...) the 300Mb Tablespace filled up and caused the installation to pause until I added another datafile to that tablespace.
    Secondly, the error that is a constant present in all failed installations is this one:
    Unable to publish the schema. Unable to publish the view 'MediaTypes_View' with relationship 'ObjectTypes_MediaTypes'. Failed to append row. Mismatched number of columns in data result set [ Details ]
    An error has occurred. The stack trace below shows more information.
    !csSchemaUnableToPublish!csSchemaUnableToPublishView2,MediaTypes_View,ObjectTypes_MediaTypes!syFailedAppendRow

    This error appears immediatly at the end of the server's first startup, just after all database changes are done upon installing URM. This last attempt I actually went to check the Content Server logs before I tried to login to the instance just to be sure that I wasn't responsible in any way for creating this error, and as I expected it was already there, since this relation is created by one of the Records components.... This error is a product of the URM installation itself and makes it impossible to run any Check-Ins or searches, due to the non-working relation causing Javascript errors which don't allow the forms to load values into any drop-down lists...
    We also register every "move" we make during installations, and as we reviewed what we did we feel we did exactly the same steps (it's not that hard in a one-click installation process...), why only ONE of the installations went okay we're entirely clueless about.... What we do know is that we seriously need this issue fixed, not only is it costing us a ridiculous ammount of time in "attempts" but come on.. this issue shouldn't really exist in a public release... unless we're the only ones being affected by it?
    On a side note, the URM installation was done over a "fresh" component-clean installation of Content Server, so there was nothing of our own custom components that could interact incorrectly with a component of the URM installation.
    If anyone has seen this issue before, please write something here. Thanks in advance,
    - Tiago Dias

    you should issue a support ticket yourself and get a SR number... that's probably faster than going through the sales guy.
    I'd suggest turning on the "schema" trace section, make it verbose, and restart. You may need to disable all component (including URM) before doing this.
    Something is wrong with the "MediaTypes_View" definition file, which is here somewhere:
    contentserver/data/schema/views/

  • T60 WLAN COMPLETELY GONE after installing latest Update Intel Wireless WiFi Link for Windows XP

    I just reinstalled a T60 from scratch TWICE  to the point of updating  - Intel Wireless Wifi Link for Windows XP -
    Just after that very latest Update (3.1.1.1 or so?)  there is no WLAN possible and I had to find out, that  a system restore is impossible either! (Simply does not work and asks me to get another point and try again)
    I have a full backup done by acronis 2010 so that does not bother me so very much.
    The point is that I like to WARN everybody to install that Update to their T60  e.g. 2008YWJ !!!
    (contains 3945AGB WLAN Module!)
    After Updating U HAVE NO CHANCE TO REPAIR IT! U get always the problem signature 
    szAppName: AcSvc.exe  szAppVer: 5.6.1.33  szModName: PfMgrApi.dll
    szModVer : 13.0.0.2  offset: 000d4912
    and the System wants to report that stuff to MicroSoft...again and again...every time u
    start AccessConnections.
    U can DEinstall AccessConnections and Intel Wireless Wifi Link for XP completely, reboot
     and REinstall it....just 2 get the same messages and NO WLAN anymore.
    I could not get out of this Driver Installation Hell until I did a complete Recovery Install and
     I got back to Hell when System Update REinstalled Intel Wireless WiFi Link for XP
    automagically...;-(((
    And again NO CHANCE to roll back, No chance to get rid of that annoying bug. This time I have an ACRONIS-Image so I can spare some time....
    Somebody shoud really CHECK this, because it should not be possible to break down an completely NICE RUNNING Thinkpad THIS WAY just by updating it! As it took me abaout 12 Hours of Administration by now I
    really would apreciate to help whomever to find out what the hell is responsible 4 this !!!
    Why is XP System Restore not working on an T60 to roll back to Point b4 installation of this Update???
    (I could  not use that Thinkvantage-System Recovery because it did not even get all its updates by the 
    time the system went in limbo during install! What i defintely can say is that it breaks at exactely
    same point when Intel Wifi Updates is installed...
    I do my Acronis Restore now and try 2 avoid this Update....;-(
    if anybody KNOWS how to get that system 2 an earlier point of an install orgy i whould be thankful to get that information...
    I am keeping alive 12 Thinkpads here R40 R50 T42 T43 T60 T61p T400 T500 and  NEVER
    experienced problems like this in many  years!
    cheers

    gal9000, welcome to the forum,
    have you tried running windows system restore from safe mode? It usually works then because some anti-virus softwares will prevent it from running successfully from "normal" windows.
    Hope this helps.

  • Why did my iPad go into recovery mode after installing latest update?

    I installed the latest update for the operating system and when my ipad 3 restarted, I get a unresponsive screen with a iTunes logo in the middle and a picture of the charging cord on the screen.  It does not let me do anything with it.  Any ideas?

    Why it happened nobody can know for sure. Did the download stall? Do you run antivirus software that can interfere with the download? Did your internet connection cut out?
    There could be any number of reasons why it happened. Were you able to restore the iPad and get it up and running again?
