Key Commands corrupt using Configurator in Photoshop CS5

For me, when the Configurator Panel is open common keyboard commands for tools such as the brush or patch tool (any of them) no longer work. There is a brief pause, it switches to the tool you want, and then it reverts back to the tool you were using. Holding the key down will keep it visible, but let go and it reverts back to the tool you were using.
This totally sucks as I've grown quite fond of Configurator. It's a real time saver. Too bad they didn't incorporate a customizable tool panel right into Photoshop...
But at any rate, something seriously wrong here and I can no longer use Configurator 2.0. Hopefully there will be an update...but I won't hold my breath.
Suggestions welcome...I did create a panel from scratch just to see if that would fix things up. It didn't. I tried a panel without any keyboard commands on it (since that is what is effected) and that didn't do anything either.

I'm having exactly the same problem as Lance with the Configurator V2 Panels. It's very frustrating and I've only just worked out that it's the Configurator Panel causing the problem.
It seems a bit intermittent but closing the panel fixes it instantly.

im on a Mac Os X 10.6.6
ATI Radeon HD 5750:
do i have the sufficient hardware?

Hi,
Have you tried resetting at launch (cmd+opt+shift)? That card and 10.6.6, ostensibly, should work. My older ATI 3870 on 10.6.6 works. I don't have an iMac to check with just now, but hopefully can take a look next week.

Alt key stuck when using mouse in flash CS5.5 on os x lion. sucks. please help.

Hi there,
since I've updated to lion flash cs5.5 is utterly unusable. The alt key is always stuck in this app when I use the mouse. So if I select something then try to move it, it copies it (as if I was holding down alt key). It basically means I can't use flash for anything..
Has anyone else had this issue and resolved it?
I saw similar forum posts for photoshop cs5 and snow leopard, and even tried the utility provided on those forums. Didn't work.
I removed my wacom tablet driver,
I reinstalled flash,
I shut down EVERYTHING except flash. Nothing works - alt key is always active in flash.
Is this some kind of bad joke from Adobe? Is there really no fix for this? I can't believe it - honestly...
Additional note - in the key remapping page - it reckognizes the alt key normally, and all other key combinations - it is only when using the mouse that the alt key is stuck.

Hello,
I was having the same exact problems with Flash Professional after upgrading my OS X to Lion. (Alt/Option key seems like it's stuck / Duplicating objects on stage just by clicking and moving the object.) My main problem was not being able to curve a straight line with the Arrow tool. Instead it would create a corner point as if the Alt/Option key was being held.
I stumbled upon this thread before finding my solution so I thought I'd share what worked for me.
Here is the thread I found with the solution that worked:
http://forums.adobe.com/message/5222999
Basically I had a program called AirDisplay installed. AirDisplay allows me to use my iPad as a second monitor for my Mac. So if you have this program installed, or one similar to AirDisplay, uninstalling this program may get your Flash Professional to work correctly again. It certainly did for me to my amazement.
Hope this works for you or anyone else who is experiencing this weird and frustrating problem!

Configurator crashes Photoshop CS5

I downloaded and installed Configurator this morning, then built a simple tools palette to test it.
I installed the palette in Photoshop CS5's Panels folder, as instructed by Configurator.
Then I restarted Photoshop, and it crashed three seconds later. Restarting Photoshop results in the same crash every time.
The Configurator application was still open at the time of these crashes.
Then I removed the Panel I had made, and restarted Photoshop. It crashed.
Then I quit Configurator, and Photoshop will now run.
Lucy, you got some splainin' to do!
I'll keep trying, perhaps this time with InDesign.

I was able to open and position my panel in Photoshop CS5, and it stopped crashing on open, as described in the previous post.
But, today I discovered that Photoshop will not Save a photo while the panel is present.
I tried several times to Save a photo that I opened from Bridge, and each time it went into space (rotating beach ball).
I'm running on a MacPro tower, 6GB of RAM, 2 X 2.8 Intel Quad Core processors.
After the last crash (I did it four times just to be sure I am not crazy), I went into the Panels folder and threw away my custom panel.
Now Photoshop will Save correctly. The problem is solved.
But I can't use either Configurator or the Panels it creates.
Alas!

Using videos in Photoshop CS5 32 bit

Have reviewed a number of new vid tuts on doing things with video files in Photoshop CS5. I've tried it but every time I try to bring in a video file into CS5 Photoshop 32bit, PS stops working and shuts down. I also see I do not have a "Video" workspace to choose from the available workspaces. "Motion" is there and maybe that's what video is now called in CS5 PS?
Anyhow, must you have the 64 bit version of PS CS5 to work with video files in Photoshop CS5?
Thanks!
PS- Video card is nVidia GTS 250, I have the latest driver, GPU acceleration being used, Windows 7, 32 bit, 4 GB DDR3 ram.

If you have the latest QT Player installed, you should also have Apple's version of H.264. Note: there are other versions available, and many users report better workings with them. Two popular alternate H.264 CODEC's are from Lead and from MainConcept. It is possible that you do not have the H.264 CODEC. Back in G-Spot, choose Tables, and check your installed CODEC's. Note: Adobe PrPro installs several MainConcept CODEC's, and it uses a unique naming convention to "hide" those CODEC's from some programs, that might overwrite or replace them, with some other version. This causes G-Spot and Sherlock the CODEC Detective (good program, BTW) to yield a false positive, that the Adobe MainConcept CODEC's are not installed properly, or are missing. Do not know if PS-Extended also installs any of the MainConcept CODEC's, but wanted to point that out, to save you worry.
Now, are you on a Mac, or a PC? The reason that I ask is that the AIFF Audio can be problematic, especially on a PC. When working with AIFF Audio, I will always convert that to PCM/WAV 48KHz 16-bit first.
One converter is Apple's QT Pro (US $ 30 upgrade/unlock). I use it to convert SD MOV files to DV-AVI Type II's w/ 48KHz 16-bit PCM/WAV Audio, and it works well.
Good luck,
Hunt
I have a ton of codecs. GSpot tables show a Lead H.264(L264) and also ITU-T/ISO/IEC H.264 (AVC1 and H264), a number of Apple items, AZPR and AZRP, to name a couple. My H.264 vids play fine in MS Media player, CS4 Prem Pro, MS Moviemaker 6, QT player 7.6.6, etc.
Yes, PC, Windows 7, 32 bit, i7 CPU, GeForce 250 vid card.
I also ran a "List codecs and other features" in GSpot and, yes, seems like all the MainConcepts lines for Adobe come up RED for missing in PremPro CS4 but, as you said, they may be "hidden" from GSpot.

Vietnames Fonts can't be used in Illustrator & Photoshop CS5!

Hello, everybody here!
I am using AI CS5 and PS CS5. Now I would like to design a leaflet which includes Vietnamese Words. I am very sure I can use only specifice fonts as Vietnamese such as Arial, Time New Romans, etc. I, however, can't use other fonts that are in different characters beside those. What must I do to solve it? Is there a helpful program that can be installed to make Vietnames work in AI CS5?
Any ideas and help will be appriciated.
Thanks a lot and please help...
I am looking forward to hearing from you.
Yours sincerely,
LUCK

The fonts I mentioned above should have the Vietmanese in them. Check your font utility (Character Map) to see where they are. Scroll down the chart of characters until you see the one you want; then you will need to note the "unicode" number at the bottom left and type that sequence exactly to duplicate the selected character. A hard and tedious workaround. You can also copy and paste the characters, especially if they are already on your page.
Only works with VNI Times, Arial, Verdana, and Tahoma as noted in my earlier post. These worked in my Photoshop (just tested) using the select-copy in Character Map and pasting in the text window. It ought to work in Illustrator or InDesign as well
I hope you do not have a lot to say. Probably you can hire a translator to set and proof your text. If you get it set and it is approved, you can convert the text to outlines so that you do not have a bunch of font problems with your printer.
Sorry.

Program error when try to use 3D repousse in Photoshop CS5 extended?

Please help!!!! Unable to use 3D repousse Photoshop CS5 Extended (my system info is described below)
I tried almost everything that is available in Adobe library help, also re-installed programs as requested by Adobe support (suspected to get rid of me), it did not solve the problem.
I used to have 3D capabilities, and also crop tool worked well before (now it changes all layers when using crop even in background). My PC is same, nor I downloaded plugins or changed video cards (these things are too advanced for me!), also restored preferences many times.
My system makes automatic updates, reviewed graphics and adobe as recommended.
OpenGL settings is odd …only can access basic, other modes are not highlighted (normal or advanced).
ERRORS (for 3D Text)
1-“Your 3D scene now exceeds the limits of lights and/or textures for the video card’s hardware-accelerated 3D rendering. As long as the limits are exceeded, 3D rendering will be done in software only, and some features (e.g Repousse)will be disabled.”
2- “Your video card does not meet the requirements for hardware-accelerated 3D rendering. All 3D will be rendered with software only “
3-“ Could no complete the text layer command because of a program error”
ERROR (for object)
Open GL/GPU HARDWARE ACCELERATION IS CURRENTLY DISABLED. 3D WILL NOW BE RENDERED WITH SOFTWARE ONLY. TO ENABLE OPEN/GL ACCELERATION, GO TO PREFERENCES > PERFORMANCE TAB AND CHECK THE “ENABLE OPENGL GRAWING” CHECK BOX.
Is it possible that I have a GPU Sniffer? all these terms I have learned recently =)   but I have a healthy & capable graphic card and accepted by adobe standards.

thank you for replying...but it seems an easy answer again like one given by support....I had photoshop working perfectly before with same video card, I think in one project I clicked something in program (photoshop)that was not ready to correct it by itself... It should be available for the program to give warning several times to the user, I do not know what made Photoshop to disable OpenGL settings, and not be able to reverse action!!!!! How do I change a GPU sniffer? I an not a tech, all these things I just learned reading....had spent hundreds of hours....really dissapointed of Adobe and its support....it is not fair to sell an expensive program without support, it seems to me that I know now more than a live customer support.

Photoshop CS5.1 "Could not complete the save command because there is not enough memory (RAM) - HELP

Hi, I use Windows 7, Photoshop CS5.1 often pops up with "Could not complete [command] because there is not enough memory (RAM)." I have increased my performance preferences to (1451mb) 90%, however I have not restarted Photoshop as I want to try and save the work I have been doing today. I would greatly appreciate any experience in this area and advice as how to work around this problem.

Good day!
You could try to free up resources by closing all non-essential documents and invoking Edit > Purge > All.

Photoshop CS5 32 bit misrecognizes a command received from another program...

I use a free mouse gesture program called StrokeIt. It allows mouse gestures to be made for other programs. It uses mouse gestures and a few mouse click actions to activate custom commands.
But there is a bug in which Photoshop CS5 32 bit won't receive a command properly from StrokeIt. A StrokeIt command sent to Photoshop CS5 32 bit with the wheel_down mouse gesture is misrecognized by Photoshop CS5 32 bit as the same command used by the wheel_up gesture. The developer of StrokeIt has done a lot of testing on this problem and has concluded that this is a recognition bug in Photoshop CS5 32 bit under 64 bit Windows [but no problem with 64 bit Photoshop]. Can this be fixed?
BTW: I'm currently using: Win7 x64 | Photoshop CS5 32 bit | StrokeIt Home 0.9.7
ALSO: To perform the wheel_down / wheel_up commands in StrokeIt, you hold down the right mouse button and scroll the wheel down/up. This will run whatever commands you have customized to that gesture.

here is the detailed dicussion with the strokeit developer on this problem at the strokeit forums. the developer's name is jeff and the discussion on this problem began on nov 15 on page 2...
http://www.tcbmi.com/strokeit/forum/read.php?3,54070,page=2
this problem affects *some* 32 bit programs on 64 bit windows, and photoshop cs5 32 bit happens on be one of them.

Photoshop CS5 HDR Issues

Hi,
I've been using HDR with Photoshop CS5 for quite some time, and I'm now switching to CS6, but am having some troubles that I've never had before.
Here's a rundown of what's happening. First, I go to file -> automate -> merge to HDR
I then make the changes to gamma, exposure, etc. I leave the 16-bit and local adaptation alone; I've never changed any of that before. Someone mentioned how that could be an issue, but I never adjust any of that. After making the desired edits of colors, exposure, etc., I hit process. I'll show here what I get in the "preview" window where all of the work is being done, and then what the end result is.
Preview window:
What it comes up with after:
Any thoughts or ideas would be greatly appreciated!

Yes, open a raw file with Photoshop's Camera Raw, then move the sliders around - e.g., Shadows, Highights, Blacks, Whites, to bring the extreme parts of the exposure in.
It's surprising what results can be gotten from a single raw file:
Several examples:

Photoshop CS5 edits not showing in Lightroom

Experiencing strange behavior and would appreciate any advice...
Am editing .CR2 files, then doing Edit in > Photoshop CS5 > Edit with Lightroom Adjustments and "Stack with Original". All goes fine until I save and the new image is now displayed in LR. If I want to do a subsequent edit to the now-stacked .psd file, using Edit in > Photoshop CS5 > Edit Original, then saving, those edits are not showing up in Lightroom. Strangest is that if I then do Edit in > Photoshop CS5 > Edit Original to the file again, my edits are there in Photoshop.
I think this is an issue with Lightroom updating / syncing its preview (I'm looking at these in both Grid and Loupe) so that I can't see the latest version of what I edited. Also, sometimes I can get it to update by changing zoom levels and having LR go back to re-recreate the preview (I assume). I have also seen this behavior (it's more obvious in this case) when doing B&W conversions and the preview keeps flipping back and forth from color to B&W.
I assume this is a bug, but is there any way to force the previews to update as a workaround? Don't really use the print module, but changes also appear to not be reflected in the Web module, so concerned about what my output will look like.
Thanks.

Well, just found one solution... Library > Previews > Discard 1:1 previews and then zooming in on each photo in the Library (Loupe) forced the update. This needs to get fixed!!

Cycle through key commands?

Hello everyone,
I'm trying to assign a key command but am having a hard time doing so. I'd like to assign the "turn alias into real copy" key command with some modification of the letter "K" as I use "K" for turning loops into real copies, but the key commands window will not show me all uses of K.
For example "Shift-K" is assigned to "select by channel" in my arrange/event editors, but when I type "Shift-K" in my key commands window nothing comes up!
Thus I'm wondering is there an easy way to "cycle" through all the key commands that use K? I'm probably missing something really simple here, but project deadlines have me freaking out so I apologize.
Thanks for putting up with me

Thanks as usual guys. Man, what a crappy bug, especially when you need to work quickly, the last think you need is frustration coupled with feelings of retardation.
Since I have you guys here, I'd like to ask another question if I may. I'm using multi-recording (i.e. recording enabling multiple tracks) to quickly realize ideas (e.g. recording pizz bass & cello lines at the same time) and when I do it creates one "real copy" and an alias of all other recorded parts. Is it possible to either turn off alias parts so it records all "real" parts, or if thats not possible, to have the alias copies at least keep their track names? As it stands now my cello parts all have "bass" as their names, which gets confusing while using the event editor. Of course I can manually change their names, but I'm looking for time savers here! :=)
Thanks again everyone!

Score Editor: best key commands for attaching symbols?

Does anyone have suggestions for the best keys or a logical system of what Key Commands to use for attaching Score symbols.. especially these below?
[IMG]http://i364.photobucket.com/albums/oo82/dogliege/ScoreEditorKC.jpg[/IMG]

well personally i use KCs that most closely resemble the articualtion.
eg (and very obviously) a stoccato is a full stop. ( . )
my accent varieties are on the key § which is next to one and i use mofidiers to get the other sorts.
i use apple brackets for crescendo descrescendo and brackets by themselves for slurs.
stuff like that. i guess i try to have the most commonly used KC as single stroke, and then for varieties add modifiers.

Nvidia Quadro 600, GeForce GTX 560 Ti or cheaper for Photoshop CS5 and Lightroom 3?

Hello,
I am a professional photographer and I am setting up a new PC (i7, Windows 7 64bit). But I have some troubles to choose the graphic card.
I use Lightroom and Photoshop CS5 3, no video editing.
Between the Open GL, Open CL, CUDA accelerations etc ... professional graphic cards models and consumer ones I am lost!
The Nvidia GeForce GTX 560 Ti seems more powerful and more versatile but I tell myself that if Nvidia has professional range there must be a reason.
So in Photoshop CS5 and Lightroom 3 what would be the best: GeForce GTX 560 Ti or Nvidia Quadro 600?
http://www.geforce.com/Hardware/GPUs/geforce-gtx-560ti/specifications
http://www.nvidia.com/object/product-quadro-600-us.html
Any reason to get a Quadro 2000?
http://www.nvidia.com/object/product-quadro-2000-us.html
Or the graphic card doesn’t matter much and I should take an entry-level GeForce to enjoy the HDMI and the silence? Which one then?
Does the Quadro 600 manages 10bits display 10bits? And the Geforce?
Any change announced with Photoshop CS6 and Ligthroom4?
The only 3D application I use is Google Earth in 3D mode, does it make any difference?
Thank you for your help.

You say "no video editing"... If that's going to be the case, and you won't use the Mercury engine in the Adobe Premiere Pro package, which needs the nVidia Cuda subsystem, then I recommend you consider the ATI brand over nVidia.
Why?
Because while neither brand's developers (ATI or nVidia) always release perfect drivers, I find ATI display drivers to be of consistently higher quality than that of nVidia releases. What this means to you is generally fewer crashes or quirks. ATI has also traditionally supported older cards into the future better than nVidia - this might matter to you in a few years.
People ask me what video card I would recommend, and right now that would be a VisionTek ATI Radeon HD 6670 1 GB GDDR5 card. I like this particular card because:
I've had 100% success with VisionTek cards in a number of different systems, not only initially but they have all run as long as I have used them, without ever breaking down.
The 6670 model uses very little power (under 70 watts) and as such doesn't stress your computer's power supply, need a separate power connection, nor make a lot of fan noise.
It's not the fastest card made for 3D gaming, but it's inexpensive and excellent for Photoshop. No matter what you choose, you should get a card that scores over 500 on the Passmark GPU benchmark, ideally over 1000: http://www.videocardbenchmark.net/
The ATI Catalyst display driver implementations for the 4670/5670/6670 line of cards have been good and solid.
1 GB of on-card memory seems to be a good size, even for editing a lot of images, and GDDR5 memory provides faster access than DDR3.
You should know that besides using Photoshop heavily, I also develop OpenGL-based software as well, so I have some additional insight into driver implementations.

Cannot Install Photoshop CS5 [Please Help] :(

I have tried multiple times to install Photoshop CS5; it never works. I have tried using different Internet browsers, with and without the Akamai download application, and by clicking 'Run As Administrator'.
The first time I tried to install Photoshop CS5, I used the Akamai downloader. Because the Akamai application is a writhing piece of garbage, I, of course, came out with an error. I then decided to download the files directly, without the Akamai downloader.
After downloading the files directly, I was certain I would not have any issues. Wrong. Windows found a way to piss me off and gave me an error while extracting the files using PowerArchiver. The error stated that the following:
"Error writing to a file.
"Possible reasons: Disk full or no write permissions.
"Please check if you have permissions to write to this folder.
"Vista users:
"In Microsoft Vista, writing to certain folders is not allowed (i.e. C:\Program Files). You will need to start PowerArchiver as Administrator. If you are extracting files you can use drag and drop from PowerArchiver main interface to extract files to that error.
"Error: 0."
I have checked my hard drive space - I have enough space. I checked the write permissions of the folder I was extracting to - I am permitted to extract the files to that folder. I have tried 'Run As Administrator' in PowerArchiver, and still no success.
Could someone please assist me because I want to use try out Photoshop CS5 until it expires, and I can't do so if Windows wants to screw me over all the time.
Some Things to Note...
I am using Windows 7 64-Bit
My computer can handle Photoshop CS5 (I checked)
I have tried using Firefox and Google Chrome
I have tried using the Akamai downloader and not using the Akamai downloader
I have tried multiple fixes
Windows is trash - I knew I should have bought a Mac...
Thanks in advance I apologize for my sour attitude. I am just really fristrated at the moment.

I feel your frustration, but take heart, Windows 7 is not trash. You just need to become its master, and doing so requires different machinations and skills than with past versions.
Let me also say that the greener grass on the Mac side is spray paint. Trust me, I am involved with both. Windows is more powerful - once you master it.
First, if you're having problems you perceive as the system blocking you from getting what you want done, may I suggest that you may be a candidate for disabling User Account Control. This is not a decision to be taken lightly - you should fully understand what UAC does for you and why you might want to disable it.
In a nutshell, UAC makes everything you do, even though you may be logged-in with an account that's in the Administrators group, operate as though you are a lowly non-privileged user, and attempts to prompt you with an annoying dialog every time you try to do something that requires Administrator privileges. I say "attempts" because it doesn't always happen when it needs to.
I suggest reading further here:
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/User_Account_Control
If you become convinced you'd rather be an Administrator all the time, and are willing to take the risk that software you run from now on will be able to make arbitrary changes to your computer that require Administrator privileges, you can disable UAC; it's really quite simple to do.
To do so, click Start and type UAC into the search box. When Change User Account Control Settings comes up, click it. Drag the slider to the bottom, confirm the dialog, then reboot your system.
If you had any problems because of UAC, this will work around them.
ALL THAT SAID...
I suspect your problems run deeper than just UAC, and possibly disabling UAC won't help you with this specific problem. You may have permissions issues...
Did you upgrade your operating system from an earlier version?
Was the disk originally formatted or the data put on the disk by another computer?
