New Brush Resizing is Awesome (plus one feature upgrade request).

The ability to resize your brushes and change the hardness on the fly, rather than using the brushes dropdown dialog, is a HUGE time-saver. Talk about a great feature that I wish had been in Photoshop all along...
The only improvement I could suggest is to be able to switch between size and hardness on the fly, i.e. if I'm holding ALT to change the size and I add SHIFT it should instantly change to hardness. Having to re-right-click makes it difficult to switch from size to hardness or vice versa while keeping the brush in the same position.

Vereyezuhn, you should remember those articles and reports floating around the blog sites and this forum were technically all leaks. There was nothing official until yesterday on VZ's Twitter or Facebook page.
Yes we were officially told earlier (6 months or so prior) that tiered plans were coming in the summer, but we were never given a specific date.
If Verizon truly did not make a statement that the plans were changing until yesterday, that is ridiculous. I know all of us on here have been expecting the changes, like you said from leaks, but not all customers check these forums.
I'm very curious as to why all these changes came about so fast, one right after the other. No NE2 credit, no 1 year contracts, no annual upgrades, and now the very overpriced data plans. It's all very fishy.

Will LR get the new brush feature added to the graduated filter and radial filter like the latest version of Camera raw?

OK, at least I can look forward to it and use Photoshop & CR instead of LR for these filters until then.
Thanks

Can i retain my app tabs & tab groups in new firefox window after i close one ??

Just upgraded to Firefox 5 and used the awesome features of app tabs and tab groups, but ah ! i closed my browser and when i opened it again, everything was lost. :(
How can i retain my app tabs and tab groups when i open a new browser window after closing the one in which these were created ?
Will be a great help if we can do it.

Thx for your answer.
But when I select the option to empty everything when I close Firefox I can chose what is deleted
- Cookies
- Download history
- Cache
etc...
There should be an option for pinned tabs. Especially because this tabs are not simple tabs but tabs you want to keep.
The only solution I have found so far is to keep emptying everything and to ask to Firefox to start a folder of bookmarks as my homepage (homepage <=> several URLs separated with | )
But it opens wide tabs and not small pinned ones :/
We should have the option !

Inconsistent Alt - Right Click Brush Resizing in PS CS5

Anyone else seeing the new brush sizing gestures working inconsistently?
If I hold down the Alt key and click the right mouse button...
- Sometimes I see a red brush facsimile that I can resize or make harder/softer by moving the mouse right/left or down/up. I assume this is the intended behavior.
- Sometimes I see just an outline of the size, which I can resize by moving the mouse right/left. Hardness may be affected, but it's impossible to tell.
- Sometimes I can't use the gestures at all; Alt + Right Click simply does nothing.
I haven't been able to put my finger on it or investigate it in any great detail because I'm usually working on something and want to continue concentrating on that something. Usually I'm using the Spot Healing brush, or the Clone tool, or the Eraser tool, or the Paintbrush tool.
Complicating matters is the fact that I use both the 32 bit and 64 bit Photoshop CS5, and it's possible I have some setting different in one than the other. I've been trying to use them kind of interchangeably just to get to know them.
I just started both 32 bit and 64 bit versions (in succession) and tried all the above tools, and found that the second problem above was manifesting only in the 32 bit version. Then I noticed my OpenGL settings had disappeared again. I had thought the ATI 10.5 drivers had solved that, but apparently not - at least not completely. So I'm back to using the AllowOldGPUs_ON registry fix until the next ATI driver update. Sigh.
After the registry fix, and verifying OpenGL settings are "Advanced" on both 32 bit and 64 bit versions, I see the red brush for all the above tools.
I'll watch for the gestures going away again, and post the edit log (which I have enabled for detailed text logging).

Where can I get detailed information on using new 2.2 features/upgrades?

For example, the new Return to Home feature in Safari. I don't get this one at all. Pushing the Home button while browsing in Safari takes me to the regular Home (menu) page like it always did. Since I can't find any instructions or detailed information for this feature I don't have a clue as to what I'm supposed to do/see. One would think that every new feature/upgrade in version 2.2 would be adequately explained somewhere. ??

I guess I should explain it better. I know that if I'm in a app and hit the Home button it will take me make to the Main Menu screen. What's happening is that if I on, say, page 3 of a website and hit the Home button, it takes me all the way back to the Main Menu screen. I expected, based on what I've read about this new feature, that if I was a page 3 of a website and hit the Home button that it would take me to the first page of the website. I'm just really confused about this new feature as it doesn't seem to do anything that I'm noticing.

Photoshop CS4 Open a smaller layer as a new smaller resized document.

Hello,
Sorry if this question is novice.
I have a number of layers in my document which are small, I would like to export them to PSD documents and save them.
I would like the new document size in pixels to automaticaly resize around the object on the layer.
At the moment what is happening is this. My original PSD is something like 1500x2000 pixels I take a small object which is 20x30 pixels, deselect all the other layers and save it. What I've saved is a transparent 1500x2000 document with a small object in the middle of it, rather than just a 20x30 document with a 20x30 image in it.
Please do not say new document -> resize to 20x30. There are so many little images and as I don't know all their pixel dimensions it would take me 2 days to resize the document exactly to the little image size.
Is it a script I need? Any help would be appreciated.
Thanks

Open the actions panel (Window > Actions). Create a new action set called "my actions". Then create a new doc with one layer and the layer highlighted in blue in the layers panel.
Now go to the actions panel and create a new action "my action". Once it's recording, go to the layers panel and ctrl-click on the layer thumbnail. This selects the transparency. Then Image > Crop. Stop recording the action and throw away the temporary doc.
Go to your master file and use the layers to files script to save out the layers into a folder called "my small layers". Then use the File > automate > batch command and run "my action" with the source folder as "my small layers" and the destination of "save and close". Be sure there are no files in "my small layers" but ones that you just exported.

New Brushes Won't Load

I'm trying to upload new brushes to Ilustrator CC. I've gone to the brushes window, clicked on libraries<other library - then I find the brushes I want and click open. It says it opens them, and the title above the panel is the title of the new brush file, but the same old brushes show up in the box. Is there a setting I'm missing or something?
In the attached screenshot you'll see that the title of the file is Hand_Drawn_Brushes, but what displays is not the hand-drawn brushes.

sandyfeet,
The following list holds a number of things to try in strange cases like yours (5) being irrelevant here). You may be lucky with one of the easy ones at the top, or end up with the last resort in 6).
3) is resetting preferences during startup as already suggested by Monika.
The following is a general list of things you may try when the issue is not in a specific file, and when it is not caused by issues with opening a file from external media, see below. You may have tried/done some of them already; 1) and 2) are the easy ones for temporary strangenesses, and 3) and 4) are specifically aimed at possibly corrupt preferences); 5) is a list in itself, and 6) is the last resort.
If possible/applicable, you should save current artwork first, of course.
1) Close down Illy and open again;
2) Restart the computer (you may do that up to at least 5 times);
3) Close down Illy and press Ctrl+Alt+Shift/Cmd+Option+Shift during startup (easy but irreversible);
4) Move the folder (follow the link with that name) with Illy closed (more tedious but also more thorough and reversible), for CS3 - CC you may find the folder here:
https://helpx.adobe.com/illustrator/kb/preference-file-location-illustrator.html
5) Look through and try out the relevant among the Other options (follow the link with that name, Item 7) is a list of usual suspects among other applications that may disturb and confuse Illy, Item 15) applies to CC, CS6, and maybe CS5);
Even more seriously, you may:
6) Uninstall (ticking the box to delete the preferences), run the Cleaner Tool (if you have CS3/CS4/CS5/CS6/CC), and reinstall.

On Screen Liquify Brush Resizing Issue

Hello
I love screen brush resizing feature (alt+right click drag) added since version CS5, it works perfect I can say to be addicted to it.
But I believe after some of the recent Photoshop CC updates the behaviour of brush resizing in Liquify menu changed. Now I can describe it as lagged, graduated, it can freeze forcing me to drag the cursor farther (I use wacom tablet). The same time brush resizing outside of Liquify menu works perfect.
Can the problem be associated with my video card?
I will post the same message to photoshop.com as well, just want to be noticed.

It might be an issue specific to your system, as you mention.
Brush resizing (with a mouse) in the Liquify filter for me is perfectly responsive - smooth and quick, just as on the main Photoshop document display.

I updated my iPhone to the new IOS6 and my awesome Google map app was replaced with the sucky, horrible, awful Apple map app. I want my Google navigator map app back!!!!!!

I updated my iPhone to the new IOS6 and my awesome Google map app was replaced with the sucky, horrible, awful Apple map app. I want my Google navigator map app back!!!!!!

I agree. I liked the previous map app. The version 6 app is powered by tomtom, I think. No more street view. I don't care for the new overhead view when dropping a pin. Plus, the current map app doesn't have the local points or data base that the google maps app had. Too bad I can't go back to the old map app.

New Airport Network - issues with some specific features

Hello,
I have just changed my wifi system for an Airport Network, with one AirPort Extreme and 2 AirPort Express. The goal was to extend the wifi network to the entire house. Everything is fine, all my computers are able to connect to the network and are able to access the internet. The AirPort Network is connected to the internet with the PPPoE procedure.
The issue is very specific here.
1. I use Outlook 2007 to handle my e-mails. Since I have shifted to the AirPort Network, Outlook is not able to connect to pop server anymore for 4 of my 5 accounts. Hotmail (pop) is functionning alright but Gmail is blocked !
2. Windows Update is also unable to connect to the appropriate server.
Maybe there is more but it's all I have noticed so far. I have not changed a single parameter by myself on my computers and both are affected the same way.
I first thought it was a firewall issue but disabling my software firewall (Bullguard) did not change anything. Vista Firewall is not active. Maybe is it the internal firewall of the AirPort Extreme ? But that would not explain why Outlook can send messages (smtp works fine).
Any idea or similar experience ? Thank you in advance.
Best regards,
AdG

Maybe my problem is just bad luck ! I might have shifted to my new network
the wrong day. One day earlier, I would not have seen any difficulty... if this is it.
Quakes slow cyber connections
By Zhu Shenshen | 2009-8-18 | NEWSPAPER EDITION
SHANGHAI'S international Internet connections slowed significantly yesterday after earthquakes rocked Taiwan and southern Japan. It was unclear last night how long repairs might take. Millions of Chinese Netizens were unable to connect to overseas Websites or use popular online chat tools yesterday afternoon.
About 15 million MSN instant message users in Shanghai and other parts of China were affected as the main servers are in the United States. Connections to most overseas Websites including those run by Yahoo and the New York Times were also clogged.
The chain of events that led to the service disruption had its origin in Typhoon Morakot, which struck Taiwan on August 7 and led to a later breakdown in an undersea telecommunications cable system.
Local Internet traffic was not influenced because transmissions were routed to a backup channel. But that cable failed yesterday near Busan, South Korea, apparently the victim of the earthquakes, according to China Unicom.
The failure affected Asian communications to the US and Europe.
The epicenter of the first quake, which struck at 8:05am yesterday, was about 188 kilometers southeast of Hualien on Taiwan's east coast at a depth of 11km, the island's weather bureau said. The US Geological Survey put the magnitude at 6.7.
The second quake, which was centered close to the first at a depth of 20km and struck at 6:10pm, measured 6.1, the Taiwan weather bureau said. It was also felt in Japan's Ishigaki Island.
"We've sent a team to repair the broken cable, but we can't give a detailed timetable for when it will be completed," said Song Guixiang, a public relations official for China Telecom.
The schedule will depend heavily on weather conditions, Song said.
Repairs are handled by a team comprising the carriers that use the cable.
In most cases it takes one to two months to fully repair damaged undersea cables. In the meantime, telecom operators will try to reroute traffic to operating cables and satellite systems.
Domestic Internet connections and international call services were normal yesterday, the carriers said.

Hi Marg42,
Thanks for visiting Apple Support Communities.
First, your husband can create his own Apple ID via the web, computer, or iPad, if he hasn't already:
My Apple ID
https://appleid.apple.com
iTunes: How to set up an Apple ID within iTunes
http://support.apple.com/kb/ht2731
Next, he can sign out of the Apple services that are currently using your Apple ID on your old iPad, and sign in with his own.
This article has instructions for doing so for specific Apple services:
Apple ID: What to do after you change your Apple ID
http://support.apple.com/kb/HT5796
Alternately, he can erase the device and set it up as new using the steps in this article:
