My gradients presets are a mess

I have so many duplicate gradients that I can't add any more. I have reset all the tools and that has not helped. The Reset Gradients . . . and Replace Gradients . . under the Gradient Editor-more menu are grayed out. And I cannot manipulate them directly at the file level. Several times I have delected duplicate gradients one at a time but they don't stay deleted. They are just about useless to me. Any help would be appreciated. I am running Adope PSE 8 with Windows 7.
Thanks.

Thanks Ardnold
Glad that it helped.

Workspace is messed up and presets are lost

Hi I am using Audition 2014.2.
Sometimes, almost every day, when I open Audition the workspace is messed up and every pannel is pushed to the upper left corner of the window.
The same time, all the presets are lost and the Presets list of the effects rack is empty.
I can reestalish it by deleting the folder "user/xxx/AppData/roaming/adobe/audition", but after a while the annoying problems reaapear.
Thanks,
Daniel

You have to stop your computer trashing the folder for whatever reason - Audition doesn't do this.
Make sure that you are using it as an administrator user, and that you haven't got some sort of protection scheme in place for supposedly protecting your settings - they regularly trash stuff you actually want...

Where are my gradient presets in photoshop cc?

This is what comes up. Where are my presets? do I need to re-download the program? I had the trial version and just payed for my CC membership so do i need to do something to get the full version?

The Gradient menu in the tool options bar for Shapes doesn't have a list of the installed gradient presets.
You can use either the Load Gradients or Replace Gradients and then in the Windows Explorer dialog navigate to
C:\Program Files\Adobe\Adobe Photoshop CC 2014\Presets\Gradients

How do i fix the fact that my daughter synced her iphone to my account now I have all of her conacts and most of mine on my phone. my contacts are a mess along with favorites

my daughter synced her 3g in my account accidentally now since ive synced my iphone 4, her contacts and mine are combined and my contacts are a mess . example, my favorites have a few names and numbers but some are gone completely, and in contacts some are gone completely too. VERY Frustrated please help if you can. I use windows xp

I updated to iOS 5.0.1 days ago and didn't receive that notification until just now...
This time I synced new photos I took yesterday, and it gave me the:
"iTunes Sync: 54 items could not be synced. See iTunes for more information"
Perhaps it kicks off when new items get synced.
I've decided to rent a movie yesterday. Once it gets deleted, I'm curious to see if it jumps to 55 items.

Permissions are all messed up in 10.9

I installed Mavericks 10.9 on my 2008 Mac Pro desktop a couple of months ago. Then the monitors (2 of them) developed odd patterns. Apple Care (AC) tried to help me start 10.9 in Safe Mode, but when the progress bar finished, the computer shut itself off. We could never start in Safe Mode. Then AC diagnosed a hardware problem and recommended an Apple repair shop near me. The the video card was bad and they replaced it. But when they got things running, the permissions were very screwed up. They spent a lot of time repairing them (I don't know how), and then they upgraded the MacHD from a 1.5T Seagate to a 2T Western Digital and cloned the old MacHD to the new 2T drive. I took the machine home and still had permission problems and other problems. Adobe Acrobat Pro would not print PDF files, which I fixed with a suggestion from the Apple Forum. Then Photoshop CS4 gave me a "License Expired" message (Error code 150:30). I fixed that from the Forum (Adobe Community > Downloading, Installing, Setting Up > Discussions: Error code 150:30), with a fix that required a little entry in Terminal ($ sudo sh install_fnp.sh). That allowed me to open Photoshop, but when I turned Photoshop off and restarted it I got the "License Expired" message again.
On the advice of Apple personnel in the Apple Store in Spokane, I unstalled Photoshop CS4 and reinstalled it from the CS4 Suite DVDs, installing just PS with all the supporting apps that the installation automatically chose. Then when I started PS, I got an error "Don't have adequate permission access" or something like that that has been addressed in the Forums. From the Forums, I followed the suggestion of adding "username(me)" to the permissions window of the Info panel of the MacHD and choosing "Apply to enclosed items". That got rid of the "Don't have adequate permission access" error, but I got back the "License Expired" error again and PS wouldn't open. When I tried the "sudo sh instyall_fnp.sh" fix again, I discovered that I couldn't log in to Terminal:
Last login: Thu Feb 20 18:27:35 on console
login(12166,0x7fff7cf59310) malloc: *** error for object 0x7fe65b500180: pointer being freed was not allocated
*** set a breakpoint in malloc_error_break to debug
[Process completed]
Meanwhile, using Disc Utility and "Verify Permissions" I see that my Permissions are still totally messed up. So I don't know what to do now.
I also have a Macbook Air. I see that in "Disk Utility > Verify Disk Permissions", the Permissions are also messed up on my Macbook Air, on which I installed 10.9 recently, but it seems to be working ok, so I have just left it alone.
I'm the Administrator and only User on this system. The Permissions remain a huge mystery to me. What is the difference between "Administrator", "System", and "Username(me)"? Should all these be present, with "Read & Write" access? And how do you fix such global Permissions problems?
Can anyone help?
Thanks.

You may need to rebuild permissions on your user account. To do this,boot to your Recovery partition (holding down the Command and R keys while booting) and open Terminal from the Utilities menu. In Terminal, type: ‘resetpassword’ (without the ’s), hit return, and select the admin user. You are not going to reset your password. Click on the icon for your Macs hard drive at the top. From the drop down below it select the user account which is having issues. At the bottom of the window, you'll see an area labeled Restore Home Directory Permissions and ACLs. Click the reset button there. The process takes a few minutes. When complete, restart.

Default Presets are missing in Lightroom 5

Hi!
I accidentally deleted all my presets in Lightroom 5. Try to uninstall and install the application again but the presets are still not there.
What should I do to bring all the presets back? Currently, I can't even add in more presets. HELP!!
Thanks,
Morla
Ps. I am using Mac.

Video playback and Album covers in Cover album flow mode are a mess

After installing iTunes 7.02 the cover albums come through on albums with song group list, but in the Cover Flow mode where you browse through the album covers, the covers are made up of verticle and horizontal lines and nothing can be made out. Even the bar at the bottom that allows you to drag and flip through the covers has a hashed line look.
The video playback images are also messed up. basically I can see that there is an image moving but it's not interpretable. The sound comes through fine. The image basically looks like a whole bunch of little squares that are not aligned right.
Any suggestions

with those symptoms, we'd better check through the suggestions from the following document:

IPhoto 11 events' dates are all messed up

Hi, my iPhoto 11 events' dates are all messed up.
I tried a solution that I found in the forum in which one should delete file com.apple.iPhoto but I don't have the said file.
Any ideas?
Thanks in advance!

Yes you do. In Lion and Mountain Lion the Library folder is now invisible. To make it permanently visible enter the following in the Terminal application window: chflags nohidden ~/Library and hit the Enter button - 10.7: Un-hide the User Library folder.
You can then find and delete the necessary preference file.

Importing nikon d610 files and presets are applying to raw files?

I just picked up a nikon d610 and every time I import photos several presets are applied to my Raw images. White balance, contrast, Vibrance, saturation, and sharpening. It's like an import preset is set but I don't have anything selected. This only happens on my D610, my D800 and D7000 import raw files in with no settings applied. Running LR5.5 on a Mac OS 10
Anyone experience this before?
Thanks

You mention an older camera, which opens the door to the possibility of older software. There are histories of older versions of Nikon Transfer doing bad things to files from newer cameras. Check to see that you have the most recent version of Nikon Transfer. If not, do the upgrade then transfer the files again from the card(s).

ACR 6.1 problem: presets are resetting settings

Hi all,
First post in these forums. I've been using ACR for years and have been using Photoshop CS5 for a few weeks with no problems. I've now installed ACR 6.1...
Here's the problem that is driving me nuts: when I apply a preset to an image, ALL settings are affected, even if the preset only includes information on one setting. The settings that are NOT specified in the preset XMP file are basically zeroed - not even to my default setting, but to 'factory defaults'.
For example, I have a preset that only sets Split Toning. When I apply it, the split toning gets set and all other ACR settings not specified in the preset are reset - exposure, noise reduction, vignetting etc... everything EXCEPT local adjustments.
I have even checked the contents of the preset XMP files to make sure they only contain the relevant settings and they all look good to me. Here's the contents of the above preset:
<x:xmpmeta xmlns:x="adobe:ns:meta/" x:xmptk="Adobe XMP Core 4.2-c020 1.124078, Tue Sep 11 2007 23:21:40        ">

Hi,
I couldn't see any Adobe related process in the task manager. I tried
to open PS and from there activated Updates. The app manager was
launched which I also could see in the task manager. After closing the
app manager and PS no Adobe task was running.
I tried to logout and login in again but the problem remained. Finally
I rebooted OS X and after that I successfully was able to update to
ACR 6.1.
I also tried to run AdobePatchInstaller with PS open. In that case AAM
displayed a message that PS was open and had to be closed i.e. a
totally expected behaviour compared to the previous error message I
got before reboot.

Lars

Hi,
>
While you get this error to close "Adobe Application Manager" which
all Adobe CS5 produts are in launched state? Can you please check
the task manager if there is two entries of the launched product? In
case there is no Adobe CS5 product launched, is in task manager any
Adobe CS5 product listed? If there are close them all and try again.
Also please check if there is any Adobe screen such as
serialization, Adobe ID or anything related to Adobe is open.

CS6 Presets are Missing

I recently upgraded my hardrive from a 250 GB to 500 GB SSD. I used Apple's migration assistant to move everything over. In the process, I updated the OS to Mavericks. Now I'm noticing that a majority of my presets for Illustrator and Photoshop are missing.
For example, All of Photoshop's adjustment presets are missing. All of Illustrators workspaces are missing and none of the Extensions like Kuler appear in that menu.
Is there a way to restore the default presets?

See http://forums.adobe.com/thread/1050730?tstart=0

Presets are missing since upgrading to Lightroom 5

Since upgrading to Lightroom 5 a number of Adobe Presets I purchased are no longer available. All of my HDR, Tilt Shift, Dragon as well as other presets are not available within the appliction even though they are still in the Preset folder.
How do I get these back?

0. close Lightroom.
1. locate preferences file.
2. delete it (or perhaps safer - rename it).
3. open Lightroom.
1.
Note: open 'Preferences' folder.
2.
Note: make sure you get (delete or rename) the correct .agprefs file (or just do 'em all).
