Navigator thumbnail turns green instead of showing image when using Crop

I am very news to photoshop  and I am using  CS4 and have experienced a problem today that I have not encountered before.l  When cropping a picture just a small green box with the normal red outline exists in Navigator howeverf if I click on Histroy the original pictgure will show back up on photoshop.  Please tell what is causing this and how to fix it.
for the first three weeks I did not have a probloem with this issue,  I am trying to get a fell for photoshop and then upgrade to the newest edition.  Thank you,

This is definitely abnormal behavior, so I am moving this thread out of the Beginners forum.
Generally, behavior like this is caused by issues with a video driver. Make sure you have the most up to date drivers installed for your video card, as downloaded from your manufacturers web site.

  • Feature Request: Continue to show Info when using Crop tool

    Way, way back, I don't remember how many versions in the past, Info would continue to show numbers when using the Crop tool. I was hoping this might return in CS6, but it does not seem to be the case. I found this feature very useful when cropping product shots on a white background, which have a shadow and/or reflection at the base of the product. I don't want to crop into the shadow/reflection, but as they fade to white they get very light, of course, and difficult to see. I know I can make guides, etc., but I'd still love to have that feature return.
    Thanks in advance,

    Yes, the Info panel. After making a selection (or whatever you want to call it) with the Crop tool, there are no longer any RGB or CMYK values (depends on what your preferences are set to, of course) in the Info panel. PS used to display values when using the Crop tool, but hasn't for quite a few versions.

    If I touch camera icon, the screen turns black instead of capturing image. Let me know how to troubleshoot?

    Try closing the Camera app:
    1. Double-click the Home button to reveal the Task Bar
    2. Hold down the Camera app for a second or two until you see the minus sign
    3. Tap the minus sign to close app
    4. Tap area above Task Bar to return to Home screen
    If the above doesn't solve the problem, do a reset:
    Hold the Sleep and Home button down for about 10 seconds until you see the Apple logo. Ignore the red slider

    My mac will not show images when on the internet?  I think I have inadvertently changed some settings but nor sure which one.

    I am going to assume you are using Safari here. If so then go to the Apple menu bar and hit Safari-> Preferences.  Under the Apperance tab there is a check box that is called "Display images when the page opens".  Check if that is unticked.

  • How stop PS6 from removing the DPI value from an image when using "save for the web"?

    How stop PS6 from removing the DPI-value from an image when using "save for the web"?
    Example:
    - Open a tif image, that contains a dpi value (resolution).
    - Use the splice tool in PS6.
    - Export the slices with "Save for web", as gif-files.
    Then the dpi value is removed, the gif files has no dpi value (it's empty).
    How can we stop PS6 from removing the dpi value when using "save for web"?
    OR:
    When using the slice tool, how can we save the sliced pieces without PS removing the dpi value?

    you can make your art go a little bit over the bounds. or you can make sure your artboart and art edges align to pixels

    The user guide says:

    Do you have the scree orientation lock turned on? If on there is a circular arrow icon with a padlock inside next to the battery charge icon in the upper right.

  • Blue Q? instead of images when using Firefox

    This always happens whenever I update either Quicktime, OSX Updates or the Firefox browser. I reinstalled Flash, I reinstalled Shockwave and the problem remains with most websites. I get the Big Blue Q with a ? in the middle of it instead of the images. What gives? I know my white iBook G3 with OSX 10.3.9 is considered out of date but come on.
    I know I read about this in the discussions some time ago, but I can't find anything about it this time.
    thanks

    I'm not sure, mine is unchecked but if yours is working with it checked you might as well leave well enough alone. You can always uncheck it if the problem repeats.
    As I mentioned above, try the QuickTime forum for some tips about it. There are quite a few topics there concerning the problem. Just do a search there for something like "QuickTime update" or possibly "questions marks" and see what turns up.

  • Show image when cursor hovers over image

    I would like to have the "i" image used to flip to the information screen be hidden or invisible unless the user hovers over the image, where I want the image to be visible and active after a second or two delay. This will allow a click or touch in the image area without activating the screen change.
    I've seen one or two iPhone apps which appear to do this, only showing the image when it is activated and otherwise the normal program image is visible and active. So, I know that it is possible. I'm just too new to objective C and the iphone SDK to know how to do it myself just yet.
    The standard utility app template which comes with the flipView controller and the "i" in the mainView appears to be always on. I'm sure there is a way to use view.hidden to hide and show it, but am not sure how to detect a hover then a touch, rather than just a touch.
    Any examples showing this would be appreciated.
    Thanks

    Some progress on this, but still working on it. I attempted to take the Utility Application template, and then add a subview to draw the layer with my own images. Somehow I don't seem to be able to get my new drawing to display. Instead I get a completely black view which also obscures the original view loaded from the nib.
    Can anyone tell me what I'm doing wrong?
    First, I take a blank Utility Application template, which shows the dark gray screen with the little information icon in the lower right corner.
    Next, add 2 class files which (1. Scenes.m) defines my sceneFiles and scenes structure which reads in my sceneFile.plist data into a dictionary structure so I can design my own layouts, and (2. Pieces.m) defines my board pieces, translation tables, and an image dictionary currently composed of PNG images read from individual files.
    Next, add code to MainViewController.m to initialize my view:
    @implementation MainViewController
    - (id)initWithNibName:(NSString *)nibNameOrNil bundle:(NSBundle *)nibBundleOrNil {
    if (self = [super initWithNibName:nibNameOrNil bundle:nibBundleOrNil]) {
    // Custom initialization
    return self;
    - (void)viewDidLoad {
    UIView* mainView = [[MainView alloc] initWithFrame:CGRectMake(0, 0, 480, 320)];
    [self.view addSubview:mainView];
    [mainView release];
    Now, in MainView.m I draw my view:
    - (id)initWithFrame:(CGRect)frame {
    if (self = [super initWithFrame:frame]) {
    // Initialization code
    myPieces = [[Pieces alloc] init]; // setup piece images and index tables
    myScenes = [[Scenes alloc] init]; // read in scene file(s)
    sceneIndex = 0;
    currentSceneKey = [myScenes.sceneKeys objectAtIndex:sceneIndex];
    // begin drawing
    NSDictionary* myScene = [myScenes.scenes objectForKey:currentSceneKey];
    if (myScene) {
    NSString* sceneTitle = [myScene objectForKey:@"Title"];
    NSString* sceneTableau = [myScene objectForKey:@"Tableau"];
    for (int i=0; i<boardWidth; i++) {
    for (int j=0; j<boardHeight; j++) {
    NSRange myRange=NSMakeRange(((jboardWidth)+i)3,2);
    NSString* imgKey = [sceneTableau substringWithRange:myRange];
    NSString* newKey = [myPieces.backgrounds objectForKey:imgKey];
    UIImage* img=[myPieces.figures objectForKey:newKey]; // get image
    [img drawAtPoint:CGPointMake(i*cellSize, j*cellSize)];
    UIImage* title = [UIImage imageNamed:sceneTitle];
    [title drawAtPoint:CGPointMake(0,288)];
    [title release];
    } // if myScene
    // end drawing
    return self;
    Initially, the code between the "begin drawing" and "end drawing" was in the "drawRect" method, but it didn't seem to be doing anything, so I moved it to test it, and there was no apparent difference. I did put NSLog statements in drawRect and initWithFrame, and the code is being called. My images just aren't displaying.
    FYI
    // Scenes.h
    #import <Foundation/Foundation.h>
    #define boardWidth 15
    #define boardHeight 9
    #define cellSize 32
    @interface Scenes : NSObject {
    NSMutableArray* sceneFiles;
    NSMutableDictionary* scenes;
    NSMutableArray* sceneKeys;
    -(id)init;
    @property (nonatomic, retain) NSMutableArray* sceneFiles;
    @property (nonatomic, retain) NSMutableDictionary* scenes;
    @property (nonatomic, retain) NSMutableArray* sceneKeys;
    @end
    // Pieces.h
    #import <Foundation/Foundation.h>
    @interface Pieces : NSObject {
    NSMutableDictionary* figures;
    NSMutableDictionary* actions;
    NSMutableDictionary* backgrounds;
    NSMutableDictionary* foregrounds;
    -(id)init;
    @property (nonatomic, retain) NSMutableDictionary* figures;
    @property (nonatomic, retain) NSMutableDictionary* actions;
    @property (nonatomic, retain) NSMutableDictionary* backgrounds;
    @property (nonatomic, retain) NSMutableDictionary* foregrounds;
    @end
    I know that the initialization of the arrays and dictionaries in Scenes and Pieces is working correctly as well placed NSLog statements in the init routines display the proper text. The code is working in an OpenGLES template that was a hodgepodge of test cases, and now I'm trying to put the pieces together in a preperly designed project, and I'm getting a black sceen.
    The other project has a "myContext" variable, but as it was copied from some example code, I'm not sure how it is actually used, as most places the sample code was setting it to nil, and only one place at the beginning of drawRect, it was set to " UIGraphicsGetCurrentContext()". I've tried my code both with this and without it, and there does not appear to be any difference.

  • Line along "bottom" of image when using camera on iPhone 4

    Hi all
    So I have a brand new iPhone 4 and everything seems fine, except for an issue when taking pictures with the camera, which I have a sneaking suspicion is a hardware fault. I'm hoping not, but I don't hold out much hope...
    So when I take pictures, I have a line parallel with the bottom (side with the home button) of the iPhone. This appears both in the preview image when taking a shot, and on the saved image. It does not show when shooting video, but I have noticed the image is zoomed in slightly when shooting video, and the line is not in this.
    The line is approximately 1cm away from the edge of the screen. This is not a discoloration, like with the bonding agent, it looks like a line of pixels.
    I have taken a picture, but can't see how to upload it on this forum. If it'll help, I'll upload elsewhere and link it.
    Thanks in advance for any suggestions.

    And also when I completely turn my iphone off it doesn't reboot when I hold the power button in and I had to do a soft reset to make it restart but even when I did that it wouldn't reboot and about 1 hour later when I tried it again it did the screen was white with nothing on it apart from a small oval in the middle of the screen showing my lock screen and it took 4 hours for it to sort itself out and then it started flickering :( :( please someone help what can I do??!!

  • Raw HTML data in reply box instead of formatted text when using forums or webmail interface

    At work, we use an internal webmail service with SmarterMail Enterprise 5.5 to communicate. Since upgrading to FF6, the reply text area no longer shows formatted text, and instead just shows the raw HTML code of the message you're typing. The size of the message box area is also reduced to about half what it used to be.
    Text formatting also does not function on several message board forums around the internet. Seen many others complain about the same.
    This did not happen in Firefox 5, and does not happen now in Chrome or IE8. Something about FF6's handling of webmail interfaces and forums or the handling of an extension that affects a webmail interface or forum is off.
    Any help?

    AFAIK, no. Acrobat/Reader will only generate plain-text emails.

  • How is image resampled when using Crop Tool Presets?

    If I use the Crop Tool preset of 4 X 6 inches on a 8 X 10 inch image of the same resolution, what type of interpolation does PS use to reduce the image size? I am reducing the size of a finished multilayered file to insert it into a greeting card template.
    I know that when using the Image Size dialogue, you can choose whatever type of image interpolation you want, like bicubic sharper for reducing the size of an image. Can you do the same with the Crop Tool? Thanks.

    chris -
    could this be included in the option bar to change the resampling per instance instead of a prefs setting?  I set up some actions to change the prefs for up and down scaling and then revert to the default pref setting. But it was never convenient so I don't use the actions.
    or maybe just and pref to use "smart scaling" that chooses the interpolation method based upon whether it is up or down scaling.

  • Weird Scrambled images when using Intel HD Graphics

    I recently bought a new 15" Macbook Pro and I have been seeing some really weird scrambled images when it is using the integrated graphics. I mostly notice it when switching to Top Sites in Safari or when using Spaces. Now, when I open a program to force the graphics to switch to the discrete 330M card (1Password triggers it, oddly enough), the images correct themselves within a second or two. I tried to take a screen grab using Grab, but that actually scrambles the image even more. Is anyone else seeing this, or is this a sign of a hardware failure?

    I also have the same problem, only different circumstances. I've noticed there are several websites that I can go to that yield this issue, and for me the fix was to go into the Energy Saver system preferences and uncheck the Automatic Graphics Switching box. An example of an issue I'm currently experiencing is:
    Visit http://www.macsimumnews.com/index.php/archive/applepatents_hint_at_final_pro_changes_and_or_new_media_presentationsoftw/
    then click on the Reader button and the Safari window background gets all mangled. Click on the reader button again and it all goes away. Now repeat with that system preference turned off and it won't do it anymore.
    Please advise if you can reproduce this. (Oh, this obviously is only for 2010 MacBook Pros that have that system preference option in the first place).
