Lightroom 4.3 quiting when using the adjustment brush

Whenever I use the adjustment Brush in Lightroom 4.3 for Mac lightroom quits I have had no issues with any previous versions, back to lightroom 3. Is anyone else having this issue?

I suppose so. But the thing is that 4.2 runs just fine.
But here you go:
Processor  2.53 GHz Intel Core 2 Duo
Memory  4 GB 1067 MHz DDR3
Graphics  NVIDIA GeForce 9400M 256 MB
A bit oldish but I think it's fine (is that what you meant by set up? cuz I'm not entirely sure)
I used the CD to install the first version 4.1 and just followed the instructions and that's what I do every time there's an update/upgrade.
The catalog was suggested by the instructions to be put in the pictures file, so I did. and the images are there too. The other "technical" files that are related to how the software operates are located in the main Preferences folder (where all similar folders from other software are normally located"
Thank you so much for taking the time to look at it. Do let me know if you have any other questions
Cheers

  • Why do I get artifacts when using the adjustment brush to increase or decrease exposure?

    When using the adjustment brush to darken a background I get  white or light colored artifacts.   When using the brush to lighten the eyes of a person I get brown artifacts that look like freckles in the area of adjustment.  That didn't happen in LR 3.

    Here are the screen shots with the original, with Auto Mask on and without Auto Mask.
    Thanks to C. Frans W  for the suggestion of it being an Auto Mask issue.
    Dorin,  if you have any other comments, I would welcome them.

  • Lightroom crashes when using the Adjustment Brush

    everytime i try to use the adjustment brush it crashes lightroom? help
    Message title was edited by: Brett N

    Hey Brett,
    Thank you for your quick respond
    Well, there was a message after it crashed asking me if I want to report or send an email, which I did. Then it says that Adobe is an able to know the problem. Maybe this is the message you are talking about.
    I have imported the same file from another source, and to a new catalog. same thing. In fact, I managed to apply both tools before it crashes, now every time I go to the same photo and just zoom in and out, it crashes.
    I then uninstalled 4.3 and downgraded to 4.2. It works fine with this version (even the same old file that caused everything) it is just really slow version. 4.1 (straight from the CD) was REALLY fast and with no issues.. or maybe I didn't get to push it to its limits. 4.3 is slower but crashes. 4.2 is very slow but never crashes.
    I'm saying that after uninstalling and reinstalling all these versions couple of times each.
    I was considering upgrading my OS to 10.8.3 (even though I really don't want to) just to see if I can run 4.3 properly. But then I read that 4.3 is widely problematic and that is why 4.4 is coming out so soon.
    What do you suggest? Should I stick with 4.2 for the time being? Just received a reply from another staff member saying that I should just wait for 4.4 Is there any time frame to the release?
    Sorry for making it this long..
    Much obliged

  • Grey dot doesn´t appear when using the adjustment brush

    In LR5, when I´m using the adjustment brush, the grey circle doesn´t appear.  How can I make this dot to appear?
    Thank you in advance.

    I have just found it!
    In the left inferior angle, below the picture I am working with, appears the text  "Show Editting dots" (sorry if the text is not exact, I have the spanish version). Then, you have several options (Automatic / Always / Selected / Never). Do select any option but  "Never".

  • Why is my working area blurred when using the adjustment brush?

    I'm currently just doing some simple highlight and shadow adjustment painting, but each time I attempt to adjust an area, Lightroom blurs at least a 100x100 pixels around where I'm adjusting. This makes it nearly impossible to see what sort of effect my adjustment is having until after I release my mouse.

    Here are the screen shots with the original, with Auto Mask on and without Auto Mask.

  • I'm using Lightroom cc, I'm trying to create a develop preset. I'm making changes to one photo that I want to apply to many other photos, one of the changes is to blur the background using the adjustment brush. When I am blurring I am going over the photo

    I'm using Lightroom cc, I'm trying to create a develop preset. I'm making changes to one photo that I want to apply to many other photos, one of the changes is to blur the background using the adjustment brush. When I am blurring I am going over the photo several times, when I go to create the preset the adjustment brush is not an option to check. How do I add the adjustment brush to the develop presets. Thanks Ron.

    The adjustment brush cannot be added to a develop preset.
    If you can replace the adjustment brush with a gradient filter or radial filter, you can add those to a dev preset.
    If a gradient filter or radial filter is not an option for you, you can at least create an adjustment preset to remember your brush settings.

  • I have imported a color picture and trying to use the adjustment brush to turn the background black and white and it isn't working.  I have Lightroom 5.  Any suggestions?

    Hello - I have Lightroom 5.  I have imported a color photo.  I am trying to use the Adjustment Brush to change the background to Black and White and leave a portion of the photo in color.  When I begin painting the photo with the Saturation at -100 I don't see any changes to the photo.  I push the "O" key and still nothing.  I have tried to reset the photo, restarted Lightroom and still nothing.  Please help.

    Set Flow and Density of the brush to 100
    Reduce it where you want the effect to blend.

    I think it means "the sliders are all 0 so painting adjustments with this brush won't change anything."  In other words, move one of the sliders to a non-zero position, for example Exposure from 0 to 1.0, and then see what happens.  You can edit the brush and change it to do something other than Exposure +1.

  • Why am I getting Artifacts when I use the Adjustment Brush to Lighten or Darken?

    I get artifacts when I lighten (dark specks) or darken (white specks) when I use the adjustment brush to adjust exposure on my photos.   Any ideas why this is happening?  It would seem to be a big enough bug to get noticed and promptly fixed, unless I am doing something wrong.

    Richard,
    Try turning off Auto Mask in the brush panel:

  • How do I use the adjustment brush to mask and not turn my item green?

    I have shot some products for my web site.  I need completely white backgrounds. I have tried to mask the product and lighten the whites, but when I click done, my product has turned very green.
    Why?  How do you use the brush?  Also, where is the invert to make this easier on me?
    Kind of urgent, I need to get these items on my site already.
    I know the answer is simple... I just don't know what it is.
    Thanks

    Have you tried without the adjustment brush, by simply adjusting white balance from the basic tab in develop?
    Click on the eye dropper tool and then click on a neutral gray color. Use the background if it is neutral rather than white. You may need to keep selecting the eye dropper to click in a few different places for best results.
    If you decide to use the adjustment brush you can show or hide the mask. Uncheck the mask when you have finished painting; then use the sliders, starting with tint and temperature.

  • In camera raw, I am no longer able to use the adjustment brush.  This is a recent phenomenon.?

    In camera raw, I am no longer able to use the adjustment brush.  This is a recent phenomenon.

    Well, it worked fine for me as well for the past couple of years. I had not had any problems using it for the past few years. I use a Mac OS X Yosemite.  As far as I can tell nothing had changed. I had not added any new updates, and a week ago the adjustment brush in camera raw simply ceased working. Everything else in camera raw works.  However, the adjustment brush is a critical tool. I have checked my permissions, and even repaired my permissions with no results.  Of course I have also tried several restarts to no avail.

  • In Camera raw setting of CS6, using the adjustment brush, the new, add or erase buttons do not work. Please advise.

    In Camera raw setting of CS6, using the adjustment brush, the new, add or erase buttons do not work. Please advise.

    What operating system are you using?
    Which version of camera raw do you have in photoshop cs6?
    After you select the Adjustment Brush, the New button should already be enabled.
    Then after you draw on an area of the image, the Add button should be enabled, with the option to choose either of the other two buttons; New or Erase
    Could you post a screenshot?
    Maybe all the adjustment values are set to zero?
    (at least one needs to have a value other than zero)
