Photoshop CC 2014 Extensions Pulldown Menu Grayed Out

I was trying to access the Kuler panel when I realized the Extensions Pulldown is grayed out. CC version is okay.

I didn't found any hint about that in the web.
I googled and came across this little gem buried deep in an Adobe Help article.
http://helpx.adobe.com/photoshop/using/generate-assets-layers.html
"Disable image asset generation for all documents
You can disable image asset generation globally for all Photoshop documents by modifying your Preferences.
Select Edit > Preferences > Plug-Ins.
Deselect Enable Generator.
Click OK."
So I figured the reverse steps (to enable) would work in your case
I never knew that Preference existed until you asked this question. The things you learn.

    I have Photoshop CC why is my 3D menu grayed out?
    I preferences it says open GLDrawing must be enabled to use these settings. What does that mean?

    Hi Lisa
    I don't know what operating system you are using, and I am not familiar with AMD video cards so I don't know the likely age and specs of your computer, but you need to make sure the driver is updated directly from the AMD site
    Click on Drivers + Support and select your operating system from the drop down

  • When clicking on the Finder icon in the dock the Main Menu grays out ... what's wrong ... how do I fix?

    Product: iMac, OS X 10.9.5 (13F34)
    Processor: 3.5 GHz Intel Core i7
    Memory: 32 GB 160 MHz DDr3
    Storage: 3.12 TB Fusion Drive
    PROBLEMS:
    1. When clicking on the Finder icon in the dock, the main menu grays out and the window with documents, applications etc., does not pop up.
    2. iMac is not showing up in iCloud.com and, not syncing with my MacBook Pro, iPad Mini and iPhone.
    This situation seemed to appear after doing updates on my iMac.
    TROUBLESHOOTING I'VE TRIED:
    1. rebooted,
    2. repaired permissions,
    3. booted in safe-mode and let the basic tests run then rebooted to normal mode. Afterwards, the problem seemed to be corrected, however, it re-appeared shortly thereafter and still exists.

    Go to the Finder's General preference pane and reset the New Finder windows show: option.  Try changing it to some other folder, try it and then back again.
    If that doesn't jump start it try moving the com.apple.finder.plist file from your Home/Library/Preferences folder to the Desktop, reboot and then reset the Finder preferences.
    For Mavericks and Yosemite go to your Home folder and use the View ➙ Show View Options menu to bring the this window:

  • Photoshop cc 2014 extension menu disable

    why the extension menu is disable?

    Hi,
    I have not ben able to install a single extension in PS CC 2014. All the extensions I have or that are available in the extension browser that has replaced Exchange seem to be incompatible with PS CC 2014. Probably a few are compatible, though, but I didn't look for them. Since you cannot install any extension, the menu remains grayed out.
    When you try to install an "older" extension, you can "acquire" it but it doesn't actually installs.Sometimes you may get the following error message :
    error -411
    Compatible CC app not found.
    Solution: Install a compatible Adobe application before installing Add-ons.
    as if you had not installed Photoshop CC. So PS CC 2014 is not considered as a compatible CC app. I guess a lot of extension authors will have to rewrite their code. All the extensions I was using are now incompatible.
    Also, I found that the new extension browser and the automated installer (which goes through the CC desktop app) are rather buggy and incredibly slow. I guess we are beta testing this new "feature".
    So, if you absolutely need a particular extension, make sure it works in PS CC 2014 (probably not) and keep PS CC installed (which can also lead to some confusion since there's no CC 2014 specific version of Bridge and Extension Manager).

    Photoshop CC 2014 es una aplicación totalmente independiente de Photoshop CC, tendrás que volver a instalar los plug-ins, o extensiones.
    Necesitas primero actualizar el Adobe Extensions Manager, ábrelo y en Ayuda mira en Acerca de la versión, si no es la 7.2 o superior, desinstálala desde el panel de Control (Win) o del icono de desinstalar (Mac).
    Reinicia el ordenador. Desde el panel de Adobe Creative Cloud, instalalo de nuevo (aunque aparece listado como Extension Manager CC, no CC 2014) y ya podrás instalar algunas extensiones. Comprueba antes que sean compatibles con la nueva versión, hay varias que ya no funcionan (basadas en interface Flash) y otras que incluso al parecer  dan problemas con equivalentes en otras aplicacione, procede con cautela y sin prisas.
    Qué extensiones necesitas instalar?
    Do I have to re-install my 3rd party plug-ins and extension panels after I update?
    Yes. Because the 2014 release of Photoshop CC (version 2014.0)  is a major version update it will install completely separately from the current version of Photoshop CC (version 14.2.1)  and have a separate plug-ins folder. To install your 3rd party plug-ins for Photoshop CC:
    DO:
    Only use the plug-in manufacturer’s installer to install their plug-ins
    Always check the plug-in manufacturer’s website for the latest version of your plug-in

  • Save for Web and Device Grayed menu grayed out

    Using Photoshop 11.0.1 (CS4) and Mac OSX 10.5.6), I have an action that saves a retouched file first as a high quality jpg and then as a optimized jpg for the web. It has worked fine in the past, but today when running the action I received a warning that the Export command was not available. I tried manually exporting the using the Save for Web and Devices menu item, but it is grayed out and not available. The file is sized to 1024 pixels on the longest side, no layers and in 8 bit mode.
    So far I have done the following:
    Trashed the Save for Web preference file
    Repaired permissions
    Scanned for viruses
    Rebooted the system
    Any other ideas short of a reinstall?

  • Most menu grayed out when using a Pages Newsletter template

    I selected a newsletter template (Design newsletter) and I'm working on it to create my own newsletter. I've been able to do some changes, but when trying to do add objects to the master (I want to have a watermark in each page), or insert page numbers, or a page break i can see that a lot of the menu items are grayed out. Is there something I'm missing? When i create a document from scratch all the menu is available. I even tried to copy all I had in the newsletter I'm creating and pasting to a new blank document, but then it looks complete messed up... Please give me a hand with this

    *Page Layout* mode does not have master objects. Instead there is a template for each layout under the Pages menu on the toolbar.
    For watermarks you will have to position the graphic, change its transparency, send it to the back and lock it.
    Then:
    +Menu > Format > Advanced > Capture Pages…+
    Name the new page template which will then appear under the Pages menu on the toolbar. You will get a copy of that particular layout every time you select it from the menu. Think of it like a rubber stamp or Xerox copier, not a master anything.
    Retrospectively editing is a PITA as editing a page template does nothing to pages already using a template. The process of replacing a template, pointless as it is, is rendered even more absurd by the arcane method needed to do it. You have to type exactly the same name as the existing page template, including U&lc, without being able to view the name, then overwrite it.
    The mess continues as it asks whether you want to include more than the one page but all other options are greyed out. There are a string of features which don't work, half work or work badly with no explanation.
    It is confusing as *Page Layout* mode actually lacks exactly the kind of things that you would expect of most layout programs but the features still remain in the menus from *Word Processing* mode.
    It is the consequence of some very muddled thinking by Apple's programmers.

  • Adobe Indesign 3 Menu grayed out

    All the tools in the menu along the top are grayed out. They are unworkable. Also when I initially open Indesign 3, the title page opens but lacks the green and red button on the upper left corner and seems disabled. I reinstalled Indesign 3 and thought the problems were solved. They were not! Any suggestions? Are the 2 problems connected?

    Turn off your connection to the internet, restart ID and in the ensuing dialog, set register to never.

  • Problems Exporting & Menu Gray Out

    I have used iMovie since version 1, and have always had awesome results. I have encountered two problems: First, I have finished a short movie (5 minutes or so) and tried to export to camera ( Which I have done many times) and about halfway through, the video hangs and the sound continues. This happens when I try on 3 different machines (the third is a 400 Mghz iMac). The second problem, is that the transition menu is grayed out. I can still drop and drag transitions and update them, so really this is more of an annoyance than a huge problem. Any thoughts?

    Eight Simple Steps You Can Take Now to Keep Your Mac from Falling Apart

    I quote Steve Summers1:
    ”I found out that since I had done an upgrade install of Tiger, I still had old versions of QuickTime components in my /Users/~/Library/QuickTime/ folder. These had the same names as the new QuickTime 7 components which were in the /System/Library/QuickTime/ folder. QuickTime was trying to load the old components from my user library into the new QuickTime application.
    ”I deleted the old ones from the user location, along with some of the really old (circa 2002) non-competing components which were still in there. Then I restarted, just for good measure.
    ”My error messages went away, and QuickTime 7 is working as it should.”

  • Fill and Stroke properties menu grayed out...why? :(

    Just downloaded the Adobe Suite 5.5 trial...trying to change my brush size, but can't...made my head hurt. Anyone know what's going on?
    Have tried a million keyword combinations to find a solution on google nothing so far...
    Thanks...

    Hi Roman2011,
    Flash has 8 default brush sizes. You can change the brush size by selecting the brush size button in the tool panel while the brush tool is selected. The brush size button is located toward the bottom of the panel if your workspace is set to Essential.
    As for the fill and stroke properties menu being grayed out, I am not sure what you mean. Can you please explain further or take a screenshot?
    Thanks,

  • Recent Places menu grayed out

    In many of my applications the Recent Menu stopped working. In Quark XPress 6.5 the menu is there but it is grayed out and there are no recent places listed. In Adobe CS2 it just plain doesn't work. If I try to pull that menu down, then the whole application locks up. I've switched to the Adobe Dialog in Adobe CS2 just so I don't accidently try to select the Recent Places menu. However a pure cocoa app like BBEdit the menu still works fine. I think this just started recently when switching to Tiger. I've reinstalled Tiger from scratch and it still does it. Any chance somebody knows how I could fix this problem. I tried throwing out my com.apple.recetnplaces.plist file and it didn't help. I also tried throwing out Quark and Adobe prefs, but it didn't fix the problem. I'm running 10.4.3.

    I've had the same problem with a computer in my department. We just tried this and it worked:
    (This was posted by thundermatt on the Apple forums.)
    First, go to Terminal and enter: ls /volumes/
    If it lists any volumes other than your internal hard drives, this may be the problem. In my case, a mounted volume from my Windows PC was showing up, even though I'd ejected it.
    The fix was to just run: sudo rm -R /volumes/X
    ...X being the name of the "extra" volume.
    WARNING: Be absolutely sure that this extra volume is really disconnected first!! I actually unplugged the PC's network cable to be sure.

  • Photoshop CC 2014 pop-up windows look out-dated

    Hi All,
    So somehow a setting has changed in my Photoshop 2014 CC preferences...
    The pop up boxes, like the layer styles window that opens after double clicking a layer, look different to how they're meant to.
    See attached images below.
    I can't see any obvious settings in Preferences > Interface that would affect this.

    How do expect them to look?
    The ones in photoshop cc 2014 have a more grayish look than previous versions of photoshop.

  • Photoshop CC 2014 Extension - CEP Event callback is triggered multiple times per single event

    Trying to make my extensions listen for bunch of events and it's turning out to be a real pain in the ***.
    I'm hoping there's someone here who has a bit more experience playing around with these.
    I used the example code from here ( Page 43 ): http://wwwimages.adobe.com/content/dam/Adobe/en/devnet/creativesuite/pdfs/CC14_Extension_S DK.pdf
    I've modified the code just a little. I removed some unnecessary things from it. I also added a counter, to try to visualize the issue.
    Every time I pasted the code here, the global variable seemed to duplicate. So, eeeeh...  the example code can be found here.
    The problem is:
    I close one document to trigger the event, but for some reason the callback seems to run multiple times.
    Even better, it doesn't seem to be super consistent about it. Sometimes it repeats only couple of times and sometimes it repeats 160 times.
    It seems like every time the extension panel is reopened, it comes up with a new number.
    Currently, if I close a document, it seems to trigger the callback 15 times
    Since this is screenshot, you'll have to take my word for it. I only closed a single document and the code ran 15 times.
    Am I doing something wrong by any chance?
    edit:
    I believe I just found out the reason and a way to recreate the issue.
    I've occasionally tested the extension by closing and opening the panel, which seems to have caused the issue.
    It looks like every time I close and then open the panel, it... adds one more run time to the stack.
    - Refreshing the panel from chrome doesn't seem to affect it.
    When I restart photoshop, it resets. So after the very first opening of the panel, the event triggers the callback only once.
    I forgot to mention that the host application events work just fine without these issues.
    In fact, I tried to use documentAfterActivate before, but as far as I could find, there is no way to kind of filter out specific events within host application events.
    For instance, I can't specify something different to happen when a new document is opened.
    As very much a side note:
    documentAfterActivate has its own side effect due to the way photoshop works.
    It is triggered when you:
    Create a new document
    Open a new document
    Switch to an open document
    It's the "Switch to an open document" part that makes this event listener also trigger when you close a document.
    Because when you close a document, photoshop switches back to the previous document and that in turn triggers the event listener when it shouldn't, I suppose.
    Of course it doesn't trigger the event when you close the last document as there is no document to switch to at that point.
    ...but this is beyond the scope of the original question.

    I was so tired last night that when I found out the cause of it, I never even thought about unregistering...
    I decided to unregister it when the panel is opened instead.
    This does indeed get rid of the issue.
    Thanks, cbuliarca.

  • Photoshop CC - Generate command is always grayed out

    Hi,
    generate in the file menu is allways greyed. Means, it is not availlable.
    Knows anybody whats happend
    THX,
    Mischu

    I didn't found any hint about that in the web.
    I googled and came across this little gem buried deep in an Adobe Help article.
    http://helpx.adobe.com/photoshop/using/generate-assets-layers.html
    "Disable image asset generation for all documents
    You can disable image asset generation globally for all Photoshop documents by modifying your Preferences.
    Select Edit > Preferences > Plug-Ins.
    Deselect Enable Generator.
    Click OK."
    So I figured the reverse steps (to enable) would work in your case
    I never knew that Preference existed until you asked this question. The things you learn.

  • Bluetooth off, menu grayed out

    I've been having that issue of my Bluetooth turning off and not available to turn back on. I'd have to restart to get it going again. Well, I don't know if anyone has mentioned this before, as I've not seen any answers anywhere.
    I'm running Mac OS X 10.4 and I have the Developer Tools installed. Located in the Developer folder under Applications/Utilities/Bluetooth is a utility called Bluetooth Explorer. In its Utilities menu, select HCI Controller Selecor, select your "controller" — There was only one selection, so I assume this was the built-in Bluetooth module and click "Make Active."
    Your Bluetooth menu will show Bluetooth unavailable, then available once again. I'm guessing this is like a reboot of the module, or at least an initialization of it.
    I guess I'm kinda wondering why this can't be done automatically. Why does this happen at all?

    This gets wedged pretty often for me and I've never had any solution
    other than to reboot the computer (which I don't do for weeks at a

    for much of its life.)
