Pen Tool doesn't work on Video Tracks

Hi there,
Today I woke up and found that video tracks in my timeline I could no longer just grab the pen tool, click, and change the levels (such as manually configuring a fade in or out dissolve)
There is just no line in the Video track where I can click and drag the levels up and down.
But the pen tool still works in audio tracks. I can raise lower my volume no problem and also manually configure sound transitions.
The only thing I can think of that I did was I used some h.264 video that had some frame blending in it (not sure what its called but were not every frame is Independent) but now when I go into any project including projects that I clearly used the pen tool before-- no go. The line for the level is just not there anywhere anymore.
Anyone know what it is or if there is a setting that allows you to fudge with the video levels in the timeline. Maybe I disabled it somehow and need to re-enable it?
thanks!

I have just had the same problem thi fixed it for me:
Right click on the clip, go to show clip keyframes, then select opacity. the opacity keyframe line appeared after i did that.

PEN TOOL DOESN'T WORK ANY MORE after PS 2014.2 update!

I just downloaded the latest Photoshop update. Pretty slick......adjustable fonts in the dropdown menus again.....nice guide improvements. One little problem....THE PEN TOOL DOESN'T WORK ANY MORE. The program is totally useless. What the h%+l is wrong with adobe? At least I can still use Photoshop CC. Anyone got a fix for this?

On Max OSX 10.8.5 I can not notice a dysfunctional Pen Tool so far.

Elements 11. Resize image tool doesn't work. Tried online chat with Adobe - no help.

I recently got a new computer (pc) and decided to download Elements 11 instead of the old version that was on my old computer. I've discovered that the image resizing tool doesn't work, although the other functions seem to be working fine.
I tried an online chat with Adobe. Their suggestion was to buy another photo service from them for $10./month !!

Do you have Resample Image and Constrain Proportions checked?

Doesn't Search SWF and Magnify Tool doesn't work

I got the PDF to SWF thing down pat in Flashpaper. But It
doesn't search the text.
YES, the text is selectable, so why can't it search the text
of my swf. Also the Maginfying tool doesn't work in flashpaper.
I'm going to test a couple different things first such as
messing with the PDF in Acrobat Pro first to see if I need to do
something there in order to make the search function work.
I did notice there are barely any replies to this forum, but
GEE-WIZ guys somebody should answer some of these questions if you
know the answer.
Yes some people are vague, and others are so new to this
world, they shouldn't be doing web design at all and asking
questions on a board. anyhow. please help.
If I find the answer I'll post it here.

I went back and checked out the Indesign file. Apparently
whoever made the catalog grouped alot of the text boxes. After I
ungrouped these I exported to PDF and opened it up to do a check.
Everything was searchable. There was something I toyed with in
Indesign referring to subfonts. However, when I convert it to an
swf using flashpaper it loses some of the searchable text. I got an
idea and printed to FP but instead of choosing FP once the window
came up I selected PDF. It is doing the same thing in the same
spots. Everything is selectable right now in the PDF I printed from
Indesign, I can even copy and paste the text perfectly into word.
There are no settings for FP so I am lost as to what to do from
here. I am using Adobe Acrobat 8 Pro, Indesign CS2 and FP 2
Any ideas?

Eyedropper tool doesn't work in Index Mode

When I am in Index mode, and I bring up the color table, the eyedropper tool doesn't work unless I right-click and choose one of the point sample averages. And even then, it doesn't always work unless I hit some combination of Shift-control-option-command. I'm still not sure what the combination is since it seems to differ a little depending on Photoshop's mood.
I can remember there was this problem a couple of versions back, and Adobe fixed it after about a year or so.
Anyone else experiencing this?
Thanks, Chuck

Thanks for the temporary solution. The is the same bug was in CS3 then fixed ic CS4. Now it's back in CS5.
I've only had this bug with Macs not PCs. "YES IT'S A BUG!" Question: Is there anybody from Adobe who reads this? Can someone at adobe please tell us when this Mac bug will be fixed? For a premium product at such a price, Photoshop shouldn't have a bug like this. Adobe should be more responsive! Think of the difficulty people like me who write textbooks must have. To give one technique for a PC and then a workaround technique for a MAC. I implore anyone who is experiencing this problem to contact Adobe & let them know about it! Here's a link to their bug report page. https://www.adobe.com/cfusion/mmform/index.cfm?name=wishform Thanks everyone (for letting me vent). Frederick

In photoshop CS5, Brush tool doesn't work on an adjustment layer

In photoshop CS5, Brush tool doesn't work on an adjustment layer

I Created an adjustment (Curves) layer and did the curves adjustment. Then I did an Edit Fill (Normal Mode, 100% Opacity and Use: Black).
I then try to use the brush tool, but it doesn't work. I've done this hundreds of times before and suddenly it's not working. Rebooted the system, but that didn't help.
I know how to do a screen shot, but it doesn't paste onto this screen. How do I get that to you?
thanks for your help

CS6 stamp tool doesn't work with action / record ( tool record is enabled ) other tools works

CS6 stamp tool doesn't work with action / record ( tool record is enabled ) other tools works

At one time tool recording was not possible and if you install Adobe Scriptlistener Plug-in Adobe will disable tool recording its never an option.
I use and record actions all the time and was looking forward to tool recording when Adobe announced it. However I found what they delivered was of very limited value because of the restrictions. I do not care that Adobe disables tool recording on my machine.
The amount of data that gets reordered seems also vary between machines. I found that Action recorded on fast machine are not usable on slow machine. Fast machine recorder too much data.
Documents you use such action on must also have the same size and resolution as the document you recorded the action on. Quite a restriction.
You problem may also be foxed in CC 2014 sett here Photoshop CS6 - Recording the clone tool in an action gives incorrect results on replay.

Red Eye Tool doesn't work in ACR 4.1

The Red Eye tool doesn't work on my computer in Camera Raw 4.1/Bridge. When I choose it, the Pupil Size and Darken sliders appear but nothing happens when you try a correction. If I open the same image in Photoshop CS3, the Red Eye control works fine. How can I get it to work in in ACR?

Ramon is right. Best to select the whole eye (even eyebrow) and you'll get the overlay box around the red. If it doesn't entirely cover the red (or if it box bounds some reddish eyelids) you can click and drag to widen(lessen) or lengthen the box and change the 'pupil size'. And so far I haven't found any, even bright, redeyes where the 'darken' control won't get a good dark result. [Animals (green/yellow eyes) are a different story.] Sometimes going too dark will also darken the irises. With the 'show overlay' unchecked you can drag the 'fix' off the eye onto the cheek to see the pattern - dark in the center and then a gradient fade of dark going out from center. "Clear all" clears all of course and you can start over.

Sunplex Manager Cluster GUI Tool doesn't work

The Sun Cluster management tool doesn't work, I keep getting the following error on my browser:
"System Error, An Error was encountered by the system. If you were performing an action when this occurred, review the current system state prior to proceeding"
The GUI shows Nodes, Resouce Groups, Shared Storage etc in the left hand frame and the error in the right hand frame.
The command line interface works fine so does the cluster.

This is now resolved - The machine was set up to use a DNS, the DNS resolved the name correctly but the hosts file did not have the full canonical name of the host.
I added the full cname of the node to the /etc/hosts file and all is well now.

HT5037 The iPhoto Library Upgrader tool doesn't work. I've downloaded it, and follow the directions, but iPhoto still won't open.

The iPhoto Library Upgrader tool doesn't work. I've downloaded it, and follow the directions, but iPhoto still won't open.

Your Library is damaged.
Option 1
Back Up and try rebuild the library: hold down the command and option (or alt) keys while launching iPhoto. Use the resulting dialogue to rebuild. Choose to Repair Database. If that doesn't help, then try again, this time using Rebuild Database.
If that fails:
Option 2
Download iPhoto Library Manager and use its rebuild function. (In early versions of Library Manager it's the File -> Rebuild command. In later versions it's under the Library menu.)
This will create an entirely new library. It will then copy (or try to) your photos and all the associated metadata and versions to this new Library, and arrange it as close as it can to what you had in the damaged Library. It does this based on information it finds in the iPhoto sharing mechanism - but that means that things not shared won't be there, so no slideshows, books or calendars, for instance - but it should get all your events, albums and keywords, faces and places back.
Because this process creates an entirely new library and leaves your old one untouched, it is non-destructive, and if you're not happy with the results you can simply return to your old one.
As for goign back: do you have an undamaged library?

Lightroom 5.2 radial filter tool doesn't work

I recently purchased Lightroom 5.2 and the radial filter tool doesn't work. Is anyone else having this problem? Is there a fix for this problem. Is there any way to get technical support from Adobe or is this a ridiculous question?

Rikk, thank you very much for taking the time to respond to my post sent during a moment of frustration and please accept my apology. I believe the problem lies with me not knowing how to use the radial filter tool and not the software in this instance. As I mentioned, I just purchased Lightroom software and I'm in the process of learning. Last night, my first instance of a software glitch was with the slideshow view not working. I get a black screen; however, this is the subject for another post. Subsequently, I was struggling with the radial filter and, initially, I thought this was another glitch; which it is not. When I went to the Adobe website looking for technical support, I could not find any place where I could call or send an email for tech support to get a question answered. Instead, Adobe directs customers to this forum where kind people, such as yourself, are willing to help others. At this point, I was very exasperated. Again, I sincerely apologize and thank you very much for being willing to help. Best regards.

The DB tools doesn't work with Microsoft SQL

Right off hand I would say the problem is that you are connecting through ODBC. Try the native SQL Server driver, your connect string should define the provider as "SQLOLEDB.1".
