Photoshop cc lighting effects do not seem to work
I am trying to put spotlight on area in photo but from render - lighting effects all that happens is my workspace changes on the right to "lighting effects" but nothing works and I have to close this side and shut down photoshop just to go back to a normal "essential" workspace. == what is the problem?
I'm having the same issue as well. Just started using CC tonight on both my home and work Macs. My home computer is a late 2006 MacPro, 6GB RAM, 2.66ghz and the work computer is 2013 MacPro with way more guts in it. Photoshop at home runs terribly slow all together but I did manage to see some slight improvement when I switched off "Use Graphics Processor" in the Preferences panel (Prefs > Performance) but this also turns off the Lighting effects filter. I remote logged in to my work Mac and using the same file (saved in the cloud), applied the lighting filter and it worked perfectly. All that to say, I'm pretty certain is a graphics processor/memory issue more than it being a CC issue. At home, the filter attempts to work, stops, and the only thing left is the properties panel like the effect is active.
Looks like I need some upgrades.
Hope this helps!

Doesn't a Mac have a definitive way to check to see whether an application is running in 64 bit mode or 32? Some kind of process manager or something? 22 posts have gone by and the original poster doesn't yet seem convinced that it is actually running in 64 bit mode.
I don't know why there has been doubt since post #12 where I explained that Ps must be running in 64-bit mode when more than 2100 MB RAM is reported in Preferences.
Anyway, here's a screenshot of Activity Monitor showing CS6 in 64-bit mode and CS5.1 in 32-bit mode. -

My question is when I go to put music with my movie or slideshow with Windows movie maker. A box pops up and tells me that this song dose not have the right codec but it also tell me did I download the right codec. I have know idea what its talking about. Movie Maker worked fine with itunse music before the reinstall. I am thinking I did not save the music right though the music plays great on itunes but just will not import right to my movie project. I am at a lose for words can someone please help me shed some well needed light on this all the help I can get would be a God send thank you.this happens to me too can someone please tell us what is going on?

I see there are references to select color not working on the mac. Mine does not seem to work but I think it did when I first downloaded. There is some discussion of changing preferences... In what way?
Photoshop. 2014.2.2release.
or 20141204 . r.310.x64
MacBook Pro The ye dropper should be able to select a given color and find it throughout the image. And it should be adjustable to select colors that are related. I am only getting a "no pixels selected" error message. Even if there is one layer. -
My mac is becoming too slow. It takes long to open word documents, pdf files or excel documents or even safari. Can anybody suggest something? I have tried to reduce the number of open applications, but does not seem to work.
Hi ...
Checked to see how much free space there is on the startup disk lately?
Right or control click the MacintoshHD icon. Click Get Info. In the Get Info window you will see Capacity and Available. Make sure there's a minimum of 15% free disk space.
Freeing Up Hard Disk Space - Mac GuidesFreeing Up Hard Disk Space - Mac Guides
If disk space is not the issue, booting in Safe Mode deletes system caches that may help.
A Safe Mode boot takes longer then a normal boot so be patient.
Once you see the Desktop, click the Apple menu icon top left corner of the screen.
From the drop down menu click Restart.
See if that makes a difference ... -
if you go to a webpage with an opensearch link tag like "<link rel="search" type="application/opensearchdescription+xml...." FF3.x highlighted the small arrow left of the search box and you could add the search engine. this does not seem to work in FF4.
If a searchengine for example for the intranet, does not offer a plugin, just the opnesearch xml, how can one add it to the search engines in FF4?You do not get the blue glow on the search engine icon in Firefox 4, but you should still see the "Add ... site" entry in the menu if you click the search engines icon on the Navigation Toolbar.

With Windows 7 I upgraded itunes to 11. Now in my itunes library, when I click on a song "original file could not be found" comes up. This happens with over 2000 songs, but it seems to be ones I recorded from cd's. Locate does not seem to work. Has anyone else had this problem?
Highlight a song that is supposedly missing, press CTRL+I to Get Info, say no when asked to locate the file, then look at the summary tab. Where does iTunes "think" the file should be? Where is it really? You may need to give a configuration file a minor tweak.

Premiere Pro cc 2014 do not import After Effects composition. Inside Premiere Pro CC 2014 is not possible call back After Effects, is not possible to work with After Effects. Thank you
You haven't given us much to go on here. What exactly are you doing and what exactly happens when you try? Which specific version of each program are you using? (Go to Help>About...)
On a side note, a simple, brief thread title is all that's needed. Something like "After Effects Issue" would be fine. You don't need the full question there. -

I used to be able to refresh a page by hitting the F5 key. With 4.0.1, that does not seem to work. Is there a different keyboard shortcut, or can I create one?
Click the Refresh button on the right hand side of the location bar container on the Navigation Toolbar or press "Ctrl + R" or F5 to reload a web page.
Reload web page(s) and bypass the cache.
* Press and hold Shift and left-click the Reload button.
* Press "Ctrl + F5" or press "Ctrl + Shift + R" (Windows,Linux)
* Press "Cmd + Shift + R" (MAC) -
Using the content aware move tool, I want to move an item from one image to another image but it does not seem to work. I think I need two layers on one document so how do I do this
Good day!
A simple Paste does not work for you?
It should place the clipboard content as a new Layer which you can then move around.
If there is any chance that the elements need to be scaled, rotated etc. I would prefer to place them as Smart Objects (File > Place …) and do the masking that is specific to the images themselves in those.

Encore CS5 - override does not seem to work
I have been producing DVD's using Encore CS5 for some time now. I usually create one single encoded file with many chapter points on it, using buttons on several menus for direction. During the menu creation I select the relevent chapter point on the encoded file by using the button link facility in the properties menu and then set override back to the original selcted button on the menu using override "link back to here". The means that when the menu select button is pressed on the DVD player remote it returns to originally selected button in the menu screen. I have just started creating blu-ray projects and have tried to do exactly this when creating a blu-ray menu but this does not seem to work. What is annoying is that when you do a preview using the Encore preview player all looks good and the return seems to be successful. It is only when you try to play the disc on a blu-ray player (and I have tried several different makes and all do the same) does the return to the originally selected button on the menu fail, returning to what seems to be any random menu button. I have seen what has already been posted in the Forum on this and tried several of the options there, although most seem to do things slightly differently than me, linking several files together and not using a single file. All to no avail. Anyone any ideas what I am doing wrong. Roger
Jeff
Thanks again for your prompt response much appreciated and yes pressing the menu button on the blu-ray remote returns you back to menu 1 button 1 from both menus.
Full project setup.
There are two timelines "Start" and "Showtime"
"Start" which is first play has 1 chapter point
"Showtime" has 23 chapter points. These are split between the two menus.
Main project properties: First Play - Start Chapter 1, Override - not set, Title button - menu 1 button 1, this is possibly why the blu-ray menu selection on the remote returns here from both menus. If I don't set this then the project errors with "Title remote not set". I cannot set this to "Return to last menu".
Start properties: End action - menu 1 button 1, Override - not set, Menu remote - return to last menu.
Showtime properties: End action - return to last menu, Override - not set, Menu Remote - Return to last menu.
menu 1: End action - menu 1 button 1, Override - not set.
menu 2: End action - menu 2 button 1. Override - not set
I do have background music on each menu set up in "Motion".
All buttons on both menus are set to the relevent chapter points on the "showtime" timeline with no override
nothing else set.
I hope this makes sense.
