Issues with selection tools using PS CS6

OK, I'm having issues with selections in Photoshop CC… This video shows my issue (which I never had with CS3). Basically, I go to select an area within an image, and then the selection area disappears, and when I go to move the selection area I am unable to get the selection to "drop". This happens regardless of whether I'm using my wacom tablet or my trackpad. My mac is a 2009 macbook pro running 10.8.5. Updated my OS and wacom tablet with the latest drivers. I've gone into preferences and disabled the GPU, but to not avail. Haven't run into this issue at work using CS6 (but i'm on a windows box there) Any ideas? Any help would be greatly appreciated ;-) http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FGPla7V9QI8

say, SAKNR is 10 character field and ur appending only 6 characters, then it will give such type of errors normally.
before inserting the data to ur Z table use function module... CONVERSION_EXIT_ALPHA_INPUT

Problem with selection tool in illustrator cs6

I'm trying to complete an illustration in inllustrator cs6. When I select the image there's no longer a bounding box that can be
manipulated (scaled, rotated etc.) like in previous versions of illustrator. I have to select an object on the path and then
select a tool from the tools palette to execute the simplest task. Please advise.
Thanx,
Big Lil

Cannot move objects with Selection Tool

Having problems moving a selcected with Selection Tool: the selection does not move.
Also cannot isolate imported picture as it always seems to be selected, even when deselected: Selection Tool always activates first layer even though I'm on another layer
Any new imported burshes i make up are not saved, even though file names shows up: only managed to save one brush
I nearly awlays have to re select stroke width everytime I use selection tools or re open file.
Are the problems due to compatibility issues with Mac OS and Illustrator CS4, as this new version is know to be very buggy in the industry.

bottchichellee,
Illy is Illustrator.
I apologize for the unavailability of the site, owing to some mess by the webhost. This is an extract:
Up to Illustrator 10, almost all the preference settings were included in the AIPrefs/Adobe Illustrator Prefs file, and almost all issues with corrupted settings could be solved by deleting or moving it; in some rare cases, moving or deleting the folder holding the settings was required.
From Illustrator CS on, the preference settings have been spread over a number of files/subfolders so in many cases deleting the AIPrefs/Adobe Illustrator Prefs file is not enough: the easy solution is to move the whole folder rather than trying to figure out which file(s) may be corrupted; just deleting the folder without moving it first has proved fruitless in some cases.
Therefore, the cure all consists of the following steps:
1. Close Illustrator.
2. Make a search including hidden files and folders and including subfolders for the folder holding the preference files; the name of the folder depends on the Illustrator version, and the position of the folder depends on the OS version. There is one folder for each version and for each user so it is important to find the relevant one.
Up to version 10, the name of the folder is Adobe Illustrator [X],
From version CS on, the name of the folder is Adobe Illustrator [X] Settings.
[X] is the version number; up to 10, it is just a number, and above that the Creative Suite version number, CS, CS2, CS3, CS4, and so on, is used (the corresponding standalone versions still have simple numbers, CS is called 11, CS2 is called 12, CS3 is called 13, and CS4 is called 14, but the version numbers with CS are used in the folder name).
3. Either:
a) Create a subfolder and move all the contents into it; or
b) Move the whole folder to a place where you can find it again, such as the Desktop.
With both you may recover the contents of the folder by moving it back if the issue is not solved and get your preference settings back.
a) requires creation of the subfolder, but it makes recovery easier, especially if you create a shortcut to the preference settings folder, and you can skip the search if/when corruption occurs again.
You may delete the folder/contents subsequently.
4. If you have Windows Vista, restart Windows. If not, continue to 5 without delay.
5. Restart Illustrator, and see whether the issue is solved.
If the issue is solved, and you wish to keep as many of your preference settings as possible, you may move the folder back and repeat 3) - 5) for groups/individual files/subfolders until you have found the corrupted one(s). You may also start by only moving the AIPrefs/Adobe Illustrator Prefs file.
You may also see a terse version from ADOBE: Adobe Illustrator CS4 * About preferences.
Scripts for cleaning out everything between uninstallation and reinstallation for versions CS4 and CS3:
CS4 Clean Script, http://www.adobe.com/support/contact/cs4clean.html
CS3 Clean Script
I believe it is possible to get a refund, but there are some options still.

Issue with Select options in select statement - ABAP Question

Hi
I am facing an issue with select options. Select statement is returning sy-subrc as 4.
I wrote the program as below:
SELECT-OPTIONS:
s_kunnr FOR bsad-kunnr,
s_lifnr FOR bsak-lifnr,
s_gjahr FOR bsad-gjahr,
s_bukrs FOR bsad-bukrs,
s_saknr FOR bsad-saknr,
s_budat FOR bsak-budat.
In start of selection I have written the select statement as
SELECT * FROM bsak INTO TABLE lt_bsak
WHERE bukrs IN s_bukrs AND lifnr = s_lifnr AND gjahr IN s_gjahr AND budat IN s_budat AND saknr IN s_saknr.
In selection screen I have not entered any values and executed the program. I am not getting any result. When I debug that, sy-subrc is 4 at above select statement. But table has records.
If am removing the "lifnr = s_lifnr " condition in select then select is returning values.
I am not getting where I made the mistake. Please suggest.
Thank you
Hanu

Hi,
The problem here with where condition select option lifnr = s_lifnr.
Use below select query.
SELECT * FROM bsak INTO TABLE lt_bsak
WHERE bukrs IN s_bukrs
    AND lifnr     IN s_lifnr
    AND gjahr   IN s_gjahr
    AND budat IN s_budat
    AND saknr IN s_saknr.
s_lifnr is a select option and you are passing it as parameter lifnr = s_lifnr.
if you want to pass this s_lifnr as single vale then pass in below mentioned way.
lifnr = s_lifnr-low

Vijay

Issue with SaveAs PDF using XSLFOP

Hi, We have been using SaveAs method to generate PDF files using XSLFOP technique successfully, however, recently we ran into an issue where a very large report (about 100+ pages) generated a PDF file that could not be opened. We get the following error when we try to open the PDF file. “There was an error opening this document. The file is damaged and could not be repaired.” We tried it again with lesser range of dates and the proper PDF file is generated. (Report was about 35 pages). So we think it has something to do with the large volume of data which is causing the SaveAs method to generate the corrupt PDF file. Any help will be much appreciated !! Note : In the same folder where we have the EXE,PBD and DLLs, we have two subfolders fop-0.20.5 and jre. Thanks, Chirag Vora

Hello Chirag,
We submitted this problem to engineering 10 years ago with PowerBuilder 9 !!!
It appears to be a problem with the FOP processor which needs a large amount of memory to complete the task. You can find similar issues with other tools than PowerBuilder:
The oXygen-user October 2003 Archive by thread
As a workaround, you can save the data in XSL-FO format within PowerBuilder, then use the fop.bat file in the \Shared\PowerBuilder\fop-0.20.4\ folder to convert it from outside PB.
This will still give you the memory error until you modify the batch file to increase the maximum heapsize for java.
In the fop.bat file change the java start command to : java -Xms64m -Xmx256m ...
The option -Xms definies the initial heapsize for the java engine and -Xmx the maximum heapsize.
We believe the default maximum heap is 64MB and this is what it is running into (or running out).
Setting it to 256MB with -Xmx and it was able to complete

Selection tool in Ill cs6

Somehow the selection tool in Ill cs6 lost its capabilities e.g. scaling, rotating, HELP??

Hi satchee,
Try Jacob's suggestion and if that doesn't work, then possibly you can try these:
1) Try a System restart,or
2) Cleaning the Illustrator's preferences. ( Please take a backup of the preferences before deleting them)
you can find the preferences in the following location:
Win : Installed Drive\Users\Username\AppData\Roaming\Adobe\Adobe Illustrator 17 Settings\
Mac : ~/library/preferences/Adobe Illustrator 17 Settings/
Hope it helps!
Thanks,
Dhirendra

How to save the selection of quick select tool using scripts?

I am writing a script to record the edit history and I want to save the select area of quick select tool using scripts.

Yeah, that's true. If we active the HistoryState, we can see the selection area in photoshop, however when we save the HistoryState in jpg, the dotted line disappears.

PS CS6 issue with crop tool: graphic glitches

I am using Photoshop CS6 v13.1.2 and I'm experiencing an issue with the crop tool. Whenever I use the crop tool, move the frame around and then zoom in on the image, the image becomes noisy, pixelated or has other 'graphic glitches'. I changed the PS preferences to not use the GPU and then rebooted the computer. Still the same issue without the GPU.
Running on Mac OS 10.8.3, iMac 2011 with AMD Radeon HD 6970M.
Is there another workaround to use this tool until it might get fixed? Thank you.

I've seen the same issue from time to time on windows 13.01.1 usually only on rather large pixel dimension documents.
Does it make a difference if you flatten the image before using the crop tool?
Also, using the classic mode for the crop tool doesn't seem to have that glitch.

Issue with migrating 'WI' using 'TFS migration tool' when trying migrate from '2013 to 2013'

Hi ,
Our final destination is to migrate projects from TFS-2010 to TFS-2013, for testing and familiarizing with the
migration tool we trying to migrate project within the 2013 server and between two servers of 2013,
we don't have any issues with migrating source code, we done it successfully,
but when we try to migrate 'WI' within same server and also tried to between two server we are getting two
different errors respectively when tried within server and between server, unable to migrate 'WI' in any scenario, log files attached for the same. Log file 'error-1' is the errors generated while trying migrate 'wI' within the same server and 'error-2' is
the errors generated while trying migrate 'wI' between two server, Need ur guidelines to over come these issues.

Hi Sham,
Based on your description, I'd like to know the version of TFS integration tools you're using and the error details when migrate work items. If you use TFS integration tools 2012, please make sure you have Team Explorer 2012 installed on your server machine.
Please also let us know the configuration you used for the migartion. If you migrate between different domains, make sure the domains have two-way trust relationship. If the issue persists, check the event logs to see if there any useful information and
elaborate more details about your scenario with screenshots.

Problems with selection tools

I am having trouble in CS6 with selecting a portion of my photo, with any of the tools- quick-selection, lasso or magnetic lasso. What happens is that once I have completed my selection, I get strange rectangles of 'marching ants' throughout my selection. These show up as different colours on the layer mask as well. When I first used quick selection it worked properly.
Is the tool somehow corrupted?

Thanks Trevor. It was both. After considering the issue, and using the tool in Elements on my laptop, I decided somehow the tool driver file had been corrupted, and did another install, which thankfully fixed the problem. I'm new to CS6 and was very surprised to have this kind of thing happen. I did a separate backup of my uncorrupted CS6 program files, and plan to do another backup this morning, just to be safe.
Fortunately, it's all good.

Why can't I select and move guides with selection tools?

I'm using Illustrator CC and I cannot select and move guides with the selection tools. The guides are not locked. I can select the guides in the Layers Panel, but I can only move with the arrow keys. I can also "Release" the guides once they are selected in the Layers Panel, but I still cannot move them with the mouse - only the arrow key.
Summary of Problem:
Guides are not locked.
Some guides can only be moved when they are selected in the Layer Panels and when using the arrow keys
Non-selectable Guides can be "Released" but only altered in color and line weight and still only moved with the arrow keys.
Desired Outcome:
I want to be able to move all guides using the mouse for greater accuracy vs the arrow keys.
Thank you for your help.

Channing, anotherhead,
The following is a general list of things you may try when the issue is not in a specific file (you may have tried/done some of them already); 1) and 2) are the easy ones for temporary strangenesses, and 3) and 4) are specifically aimed at possibly corrupt preferences); 5) is a list in itself, and 6) is the last resort.
1) Close down Illy and open again;
2) Restart the computer (you may do that up to 3 times);
3) Close down Illy and press Ctrl+Alt+Shift/Cmd+Option+Shift during startup (easy but irreversible);
4) Move the folder (follow the link with that name) with Illy closed (more tedious but also more thorough and reversible);
5) Look through and try out the relevant among the Other options (follow the link with that name, Item 7) is a list of usual suspects among other applications that may disturb and confuse Illy, Item 15) applies to CC, CS6, and maybe CS5);
Even more seriously, you may:
6) Uninstall, run the Cleaner Tool (if you have CS3/CS4/CS5/CS6/CC), and reinstall.

Can't move objects with selection tools?

As of last night, I am able to select objects in my documents but I am unable to move them using the selection tools. I'm having to just scoot things around with the arrow keys. I've already tried restoring my preferences and that hasn't helped.
I'm running OS 10.6.8 and InDesign CS6 8.0.1
Also, for what it's worth, any time I try to use the selection tools in Illustrator, Illustrator crashes but doesn't give me a crash report. This started happening at the same time.
Any ideas?

Well, it was a long shot.
You mentioned replacing the prefs. For ID that's a bit more complicated than some of the other Adobe apps, so I like to verify that you did the whole job. You'll find instructions for doing it manually or using a keybaord shortcut on launch here: Replace Your Preferences
I'm concerned, though that Illustrator also seems to be acting up. Maybe you should replace the mouse driver.

Can't move objects with Selection Tool

So, I just installed Illustrator CC, which I now have on a trial license. About an hour ago, illustrator suddenly started refusing to move any objects while I'm in the Selection Tool. I can move the objects only in Free Transform. I use hot keys a lot, so it's really slowing me down. I hit "V" to click on and then move an object, and then it won't move. I get the error sound, but no dialogue box pops up to explain what the error is.
Since I'm getting ready to bite the bullet and start paying a hefty monthly fee for this program when my trial runs out, this is pretty aggravating. Anyone have any ideas what might have cause this?

Charlie,
The following is a general list of things to try in case of serious strangenesses.
You may try the following (you may have tried/done some of them already) and see whether it helps (the following is a general list of things you may try when the issue is not in a specific file; 3) and 4) are specifically aimed at possibly corrupt preferences):
1) Close down Illy and open again;
2) Restart the computer (you may do that up to 3 times);
3) Close down Illy and press Ctrl+Alt+Shift/Cmd+Option+Shift during startup (easy but irreversible);
4) Move the folder with Illy closed (more tedious but also more thorough and reversible);
See posts #3 to 7 in this thread about locating the folder in CC,
http://forums.adobe.com/thread/1297845?tstart=0
5) Look through and try out the relevant among the Other options (Item 7) is a list of usual suspects among other applications that may disturb and confuse Illy);
Even more seriously, you may:
6) Uninstall, run the Cleaner Tool, and reinstall.
