Many brush and artistic filters don't handle transparent pixels

I had made some text, then rasterized it and I was going to apply the sprayed stroke filter to rough it up, but it doesn't do anything. Seems this filter (and several others) can't alter a layer's alpha (transparency) channel. Is that supposed to be the case? I would've expected it to treat the alpha channel the same as the color channels. I don't have the channel transparency locked. There are workarounds for this, but I wondered if maybe anybody else had encountered this and knows if I'm doing something wrong.

Yeah, a lot of the older artistic filters don't handle transparency, or CMYK, or 16 bit/channel, etc.

Brush and pencil tools don't work properly when using a tabley

When I use the pen or brush tools with a tablet (VisTablet Original), they just make these long diagonal lines. They work fine when I use a mouse and my tablet works in other programs. Is there any way to fix this?

The OP attached the program files here in LabVIEW board

The new fire and trees filters don't show in the filters menu

I have PS CC v14.2.1 x64. I saw them for a minute, now they're gone. I have a layer open, a path drawn and active and the fire filter doesn't show in the Filter/Render menu

It wouldn't be in CC, but in CC 2014.2.1 (or version 15) CC is version 14.2.1
But if you are still in CC, they are located in the Edit > Fill dialog Pattern > Scripted Patterns.

Resetting brushes and filters

I do most of my editing in Lightroom. But I'm trying to get up to speed with Camera Raw 8.7. I am asking if there is a quick way to reset brushes and filters. In Lightroom it's possible to double-click on certain items and the brush or the filter will reset to default settings. But I don't see how to do that in Camera Raw.

Yes, I know that. But in Lightroom there is provision to do a single double-click and all settings are reset to 0 at once. I was just wondering if there was a similar feature in Camera Raw.

I want to update my phone, but i purchased many apps and music on the phone. it won't let me authorize my computer so i cannot update. i don't want to deauthorize all my computers. how can i find out which 5 computers i have authorized?

i want to update my phone, but i purchased many apps and music on the phone. it won't let me authorize my computer so i cannot update. i don't want to deauthorize all my computers. how can i find out which 5 computers i have authorized? also how can i update the software?

This is a tedious solution, which is stupid! And some users report an inability to reauthorize a computer after an "en masse” deauthorization. I can’t believe Apple doesn’t provide a list or menu to find out which computers you’ve authorized! Obviously, APPLE knows (or else they couldn’t tell us how many computers we have authorized)--so why can’t they give us access to that information about our own computers??!!!
And for an already-authorized computer with a hard drive that’s since been replaced and upgraded from Mavericks to Yosemite, would it be recognized as a “new computer” and require authorization? Would its previous incarnation (i.e., with the old hard drive and OS) be considered a separate computer? Some users report they can’t authorize a computer after an OS upgrade because of that. Can’t believe we have to do such a bass-ackwards kludge!

If I install Windows 7 on iMac (what we have done many times and it works very good) does windows support the fusion drive?

Welcome to the Apple Support Communities
Fusion Drive is created by software on OS X. On a computer with Fusion Drive, Windows is installed on the HDD, but when you install the Boot Camp drivers, you will be able to read Macintosh HD, so it looks like it supports Fusion Drive but only for read

Hi All! 1st time I have had this problem: Itunes store says I have never made purchases from this computer (I have, many times) and is asking security questions that I don't know the answers to. What next? If I keep missing the questions, it is threatening to lock me out of my account. I am sad.

I have done a course in photography with my canon eos 1000D and have taught me to handle the raw camera

I have done a course in photography with my canon eos 1000D and have taught me to handle the raw camera , but not to install and funciione with .cr2 photos. I downloaded the trial version of photoshop cs2 and installed the latest camera raw ( 8.7) and even so will not let me open it. I tried to update photoshop with updates and has not served .

Unfortunately your software pre-dates the camera. But it is possible to download and install the free DNG converter to convert your raw files to the Adobe universal Raw format and the files will open in all versions of Photoshop. DNG is just like CR2 with no loss of quality. (keep your originals as backups and for use in the camera manufactures software)
Windows download (.exe file) click here DNG Converter 8.7.1
Mac download (.dmg file) click here DNG Converter 8.7.1
You can convert a whole folder of raw images in one click. See this quick video tutorial:

Installed 11.0.3 today. Tried to update apps. iTunes response was, "You can not update this software since you have not owned the major version of this software." I REALLY don't understand. I paid for MANY applications and stole or borrowed NOTHING.

Copying and pasting filters - WHY don't keyframes copy and paste?

A couple of months ago I posted about an issue I'd found with FCP (I'm using 4.5/OS 10.3.9 now, but I think I've had this problem since back on my old G4 system using 2.02/OS 9.2.2). Simply, when "Pasting Attributes", and selecting "filters", the filters thusly pasted do not - I repeat, do not - contain keyframes.
I received a bunch of pooh-poohs from the cognescenti, basically telling me I was crazy and that on THEIR systems pasting filters worked great. However, I've just tried to paste filters a second way, and gotten the same result. When I open the filters tab in the Viewer, and copy/paste the filter, the filter pastes fine...but with no keyframes.
I've tried placing the playhead at the first frame of the segment, on each keyframe in the effect, and at the last keyframe. The filter pastes with the initial (i.e., first keyframe) settings intact, but contains no keyframes.
Obviously, the workaround is to drag the filter into the Browser and drag it back onto the segment. No problem doing that...however, I just wanted to let all you doubting Thomases know that yes, Houston, there IS a problem.
However, upon researching this subject in the Apple Discussion board (thank god for tabbed browsing!), I notice that this is accepted behavior in FCP - several respondants noted that filters paste while keyframes don't. Why, then, paste the initial filter attributes from a copied filter? If yer not gonna paste the entire filter with keyframes, why not just paste the basic settings from the filter menu?
Also, let me note this: AVID lets you paste keyframes...(OK, OK, so its filter/efx setup is totally klugey compared to FCP...hey, I want FCP to have it ALL!)

Cognoscenti? You mean the elitists? Man, those guys are such jerks.
If I'd been reading the thread I'd have said, "You can't paste keyframes on filters. Hasn't worked since v3.5. Stupid programming change. You must use paste attributes, replace content."
This is not a workaround, it's the paradigm. I usually do this: painstakingly set up effects, filters, motion and other attributes in a clip that sort of stands by itself. Select and duplicate or paste this master clip somewhere convenient so I have a copy of it. Go back to browser to find the next clip to which I wish to apply this same collection of mods, load it into the viewer, or not, and copy. Select the master clip, paste attributes, content only.
Also, let me note this: AVID lets you paste keyframes...< </div>
Oh, you're one of THOSE! So does After Effects but neither of those apps were designed for Apple. What's an Avid?

Forgotten Passcode or device disabled after entering wrong passcode
If you have Find My iPhone enabled, you can use Remote Wipe to erase the contents of your device. If you have been using iCloud to back up, you may be able to restore the most recent backup to reset the passcode after the device has been erased.
Alternatively, place the device in recovery mode and restore it to erase the device:
Disconnect the USB cable from the device, but leave the other end of the cable connected to your computer's USB port.
Turn off the device: Press and hold the Sleep/Wake button for a few seconds until the red slider appears, then slide the slider. Wait for the device to shut down.
While pressing and holding the Home button, reconnect the USB cable to the device. The device should turn on.
Continue holding the Home button until you see the Connect to iTunes screen.
iTunes will alert you that it has detected a device in recovery mode. Click OK, and then restore the device

You have to restore the device within iTunes. You want to use the same computer that you always sync with so that you can restore your app data and settings. You can restore with any other computer, but you will lose everything on the iPad.
iOS: Wrong passcode results in red disabled screen
This will tell you how to restore
iTunes: Backing up, updating or restoring iOS software
If you cannot restore that way, you may have to use recovery mode
iPad: Unable to update or restore

From and/or subject don't match msg body

Hello all. Two weeks ago I posted this problem under a different head, but got no replies, so let me try again as it is messing up maybe 5% of my email.
Every morning I collect email--from 40 to 70 messages, many forwarded from Gmail--and message filtering usually works efficiently to transfer from Inbox to folders. But somewhere along the line, 1 to 3 emails get muddled together: the from and/or subject don't match the text, and sometimes the displayed text includes the Msg Source, including text, from some other, unrelated email.
I've been using FF and TB for more than 10 years now, and believe this kind of email muddling dates only to the last couple months. I use the latest Thunderbird under Windows 7 on a Dell desktop. I have 4 hopefully innocent addons. Of course I can send screenshots and forward the message source for analysis.
Hoping this time to attract attention to the problem! Thanks!

This is an indication of file corruption. Lack of maintenance on your email folders is the usual cause of this.
You can try to repair the file tables and see if that helps. Be prepared to lose messages if the corruption is too bad.
Right click the problem folder. Select Properties and then Repair Folder.
Then read this article about best practices to help prevent this in the future.
