Layers Panel question: icon not updating

A Levels Adj. Layer sits above a regular Layer. When I make a change with Levels, the image updates normally, but the icon of the image in the Layers Panel does not change--it always reflects its original appearance.
I believe that the icon updated in CS5. Am I dreaming? Is there a new setting?
Thanks,
Sonny

I don't think you were dreaming. It's likely that you were remembering a thumbnail changing when you used an adjustment command instead of an adjustment layer. A command will change a layer therefore the thumbnail will correspondingly change.

Layer name / Layers Panel tool icons disappear

The 'Template' checkbox gets activated in Layer Options dialog box, and the box gets closed, then, the Layer name and several icons at the bottom of the Layer Panel disappear.
The Layer is still there without a name, and rolling over the icons on the Layers Panel I can see the Tool Icons.
Illustrator Prefs were trashed/restored using the Opt-Shift-Command restart shortcut.
Does anybody have any ideas?

Wacom Tablet Intuos 4... v6.3.5-3

This happened to me out of the blue and after many hair pulling days, I figured out that if you set one of your layers to "not print" (by un-checking the print box in layer options) all of the text and icons disappear off every layer below that non-printing layer. So find the non-printing layer, click on it, go to the drop down menu at the top right of the layers palette, choose Options for layer, and check the "print" box. All of your layers should now look normal.
I also read something about making sure the Verdana Italic font was active in your system fonts which mine was so that suggestion didn't help me. Good luck.

CS Live Icon not updating due to Adobe Story

This is terribly annoying. The icon in Photoshop will not update, even though I have already signed in and used Adobe Story, despite it being completely useless to me in my line of work. What do I have to do to get it to recognize I have seen the service and unflag? Or is it possible to remove items from that list or something?
Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks!

hi,
I think you are talking about the 'blue start icon' that is appearing infront of the 'adobe story' link.
If that's the case than it's a bug which is persent in CS5 and has been fixed in 'soon to be released update'
for now there is a workaround:
       1) close photoshop and kill 'cs5servicemanager' process from activity monitor
       2) now delete the cache folder (location of cache folder shown below, click to enlarge)
    3) start photoshop and verify
thanks

FrameMaker update book icon not updating and custom formatting help

Hi,
I am fairly new to FrameMaker, and I am currently experiencing two issues:
First Issue
I am currently trying to create a book that currently has three chapters. I am trying to break it out into the following format:
Main TOC - includes all the headers and related pages for the entire book
Mini TOC - includes a mini TOC that highlights all the headers and pages associated with Chapter Source File A
Chapter Source File A - includes all related content to Chapter Source File A
Mini TOC - includes a mini TOC that highlights all the headers and pages associated with Chapter Source File B
Chapter Source File B - includes all related content to Chapter Source File B
Mini TOC - includes a mini TOC that highlights all the headers and pages associated with Chapter Source File C
Chapter Source File C - includes all related content to Chapter Source File C
Whenever I click the Update Book icon, however, it does not update the headers and page numbers. They still remain the same way when I first generated them. This occurs for both the main TOC and mini TOC.
Second Issue
In addition to the format structure I designed for my book, I also wanted to create a custom format look that remains constant whenever I update my TOC. I have tried testing this, but I noticed every time I generate a new TOC it is always in the unformatted FrameMaker style which you have reformat each time.
Is there a way to create a custom format look that can retain the design and simply update the TOC headers and page numbers each time it needs to be updated?
Any help is greatly appreciated
Thank you!

First I'd highly recommend getting Matt Sullivan's Publishing Fundamentals: Unstructured FM11 book - it's a pretty complete reference one to have on FM.
Second, it sounds like you may not have your ToC reference pages set up correctly - if nothing changes when you've added content that should have created more ToC headings and shift pages around, then something is amiss. Your formatting problem is solved by doing a bit of a dodge - you create a ToC and generate it, then replace it with your formatted .fm doc keeping the exact name as the generated doc; then update again. Now the content is formatted the way you want and keeps being updated each time you update.

Homescreen icon not updating since 1.1.3

When I get a new email and the homescreen icon shows a "1" in the circle, after I read the email, the homescreen icon still shows the 1. It does not update until I restart the iPhone.
I'm using gmail set as IMAP and have had no other issues prior to 1.1.3.
Thanks in advance to anyone who is able to help.

*New info:*
This irritating bug kept coming and going, but this morning I discovered what may have been causing it.
There was an old gMail POP account on my phone that got auto-converted to IMAP when I upgraded to 1.1.3. But it was shut off in Mail prefs because I never used it, so I figured it would have no influence on an active account and forgot all about it.
All of my attempted fixes were focused on the active gMail IMAP account.
Well, apparently OFF is not really off on the iPhone (sigh). Deleting the rogue account fixed three things: gMail IMAP is now FAST; stubborn messages that sometimes refused to fully load don't hang any more; the Home screen unread messages flag works properly.

Calendar icon not updating - anyone else?

My calendar app icon on the homepage of my iPhone 4 is not updating properly since I installed iOS5.
It frequently shows yesterday's date and day, although when you open the app itself the calendar does focus correctly on today's date.
This problem seems to only affect the icon itself, which I usually use to check the date "at a glance" on my home screen.

I have the same issue with the 4S.
The only way to sort it was to turn the phone off and on again.
The strange thing is, some days it works fine!
Would really like a fix for this.

Enterprise distribution app icon not updating

When overwrite installation is repeated to the application before change, an icon may not be updated occasionally, but a cause does not understand the application which changed the icon although the application was developed by in-company distribution.
Would you teach the cause and the reason, if it knows?

Why don't you post your question in the paid developer forums?
You'll get much better responses there. (no guarantee).

AppStore icon Not updated after restoring in iphone6 iOS 8.2

I had an iPhone 4 with some apps I believe were out of date and due to memory restrictions I didn't update. I restored an iPhone 6 based on the iphone 4 and everything is fine besides the "number" next to the AppStore icon That shows there are apps to update, but actually there are not... when I enter the AppStore everything is updated, when I go back to the home screen I still see the number 8 next to the appstore icon.
i'll appreciate your help. Thanks.

Mail icon not updating to reflect number of unread email in sub-folders

Hi all,
I have a problem with the default mail program on the iPhone, OS3.0.
If you have sub-folders on an exchange server and set for them to be pushed under the "Mail folders to push" setting, email appears on the phone and it even give you your chosen email alert sound. However the number of unread emails is not reflected on the icon of the mail program.
Is there a fix for this?
Cheers

As neuroanatonist wrote, I think this is linked to Apple Mail (whether iPhone or desktop) focusing only on the inbox(es) for tallying up the number of unread mail, and notifying the user accordingly.
There is an open thread dealing with the root cause of the issue brks raised:

Menu item icon not updating

Hi,
I have an action into which I set an Icon:
action.putValue(Action.SMALL_ICON, icon1);
now I set this action into my menu item and show the item in a menu. The item displays correctly and the icon is visible.
later in the program i do:
action.putValue(Action.SMALL_ICON, icon2);
then I open the menu but the menu item still shows icon1 until I roll over it with the cursor when it finally changes to icon2.
Any ideas on how to make this update immediate?
BTW at the point of changing the icon, I don't have access to the menu item or the frame etc, just the action.
Thanks a lot,
Jim

Anyone got any more ideas?Maybe you have a programming problem, but we can't see your code so we don't know for sure.
If you need further help then you need to create a [url http://homepage1.nifty.com/algafield/sscce.html]Short, Self Contained, Compilable and Executable, Example Program that demonstrates the incorrect behaviour, because I can't guess exactly what you are doing based on the information provided.
And don't forget to use the [url http://forum.java.sun.com/help.jspa?sec=formatting]Code Formatting Tags so the code retains its original formatting.

Folder Icon Not Updated?

The entire app and folder icons updated with OS x.10 install EXCEPT for my Documents and Dropbox folders -- they look like they did in 10.9.X... Why on earth wouldn't two folders update their icon with the rest of the OS? Any info you can provide is appreciated!

Hi dgbakker-
When you open Firefox and go to the Firefox > About menu, does it say that Firefox is up to date? I've seen at least one other person with this issue, and any more detail would be helpful.

10.5 ical icon not updating

Hi,
I thought the new 10.5 ical icon in the dock was getting updated automatically with the current date. But on mine it doesn't... like with tiger I have to open ical to see the icon update to the current date.
Is this normal? or an option I forgot to tick?
Cheers,
S.

After my first reply above, I decided to remove the icon from the dock, reboot then reload a new iCal icon to the dock. It has successfully updated the date every day since so maybe you should try rebooting first before loading the icon.

Modern LED Indicator gets not updated while mouse button is pressed

Colleagues,
Here pretty simple, but strange behavior in the following snippet:
When this VI is running, then all three indicators are blinking as expected.
Now click on Minimize Button (you can also click on Maximize or Close Button), but not release button immediately — just keep button pressed.
Classic and Silver indicators are OK, but Modern stops blinking and not updated any longer.
That was tested on Win7/LabVIEW 2013.
I believe, this is the problem between OS/LabVIEW and UI thread (on XP whole panel will be not updated).
Just curious - how it works under Win 8/8.1 and is any way exists to fix it other than replacing modern indicators with other type?
Regards and thanks in advance,
Andrey.

Although strangely if you use the rectangular Modern LED it updates OK like the classic and silver LEDs !!??
What's the problem with the round modern LED ? Bizarre
Yes, there are many controls, some are updated and some - not.
Try attached one - this is funny (there are two Modern ring controls - on Win 7 one control is not updated, but both mostly the same).

Layers Panel, Adjustment Layer Icon for Curves not working

Why in the layers panel, does the new adjustment layer icon for CURVES initiate the LEVELS dialog? This seems to be a bug.

THanks for the prompt reply. Your suggestion to "reset workspaces" worked.
FYI, I'm working with Photoshop CS6 (v13.0.1 64-bit) on Windows 7. The
problem happened with various documents, including yes an RGB/8 bit
example. I feel stupid for not trying simple fixes, but I just upgraded to
CS6 and have experienced a couple of other issues (why did I need to
install ACR8.5 in order for RAW files from Canon 5D MarkIII to be
recognized when CS6 shipped with ACR7.1, for example?) so I had lost faith
and patience. But all is well again and I have regained my composure.
