Photoshop CS3 will not display all available actions in Actions folder

Windows XP Pro - CS3 Extended
I have appprox 400 actions. When I open the actions palet, then go to the actions options (clicking on the small downward pointing triangle in the upper right corner) I can see my options for actions, placed in a vertical column at the left hand side of the screen. There are 5 additional columns displaying the actions I hae, in alphabetical order. The 5th column ends in the "F's" even though I have actions starting with letters of the alphabet going all the way through the alphabet.
If I chose to 'Load Actions' a dialogue box pops up showing the actions folder (the one contained in the presets folder), but no actions appear. If I view the folder from Windows file explorer, I can see all of the actions.
Is there a limit to the number of actions CS3 will display? Why do I not see any actions shown in the Load Actions dialogue box?
I use a plug-in manager to limit the number of plugins CS3 loads on startup. Is there something similar for actions?
I appreciate all comment and help.
Thanks very much.

Photoshop CS3 will not Display Open Image on Workspace -- only in the Navigator

I am using a Compac laptop computer with Windows XP Home with the Creative Suite 3 and 2 Gb of RAM.
The problem I am running into is that when I open a file in Photoshop CS3, it will open, however it only shows up in the navigator, not on the desktop/workspace. I can "zoom in" and "zoom out" however it is only reflected in the navigator, it still does not show up to be able to edit.
I have tried uninstalling and resinstalling the entire Creative Suite. That sometimes helps, but it doesn't seem to last. It has been happening now for about 6 months.
It seems strange so any advice/help would be wonderful!!

First things first.
Your image seems to be off screen. Try changing to the default workspace or changing the screen resolution to see if it becomes visible. Were you previously on two monitors?
Also try resetting your preferences as described in the FAQ.
http://www.adobeforums.com/webx/.ef4a07f/1
You either have to physically delete (or rename) the preference files or, if using the Alt, Ctrl, and Shift method, be sure that you get a confirmation dialog.
This resets all settings in Photoshop to factory defaults.
A complete uninstall/re-install will not affect the preferences and a corrupt file there may be causing the problem.

I wanted to know if others were having difficulties getting All Day Events appear in the Notification Center in iOS 7. Currently my Calendar in the notification center will show events that are at certain times, but they will not display All Day Events.

Close the mail app and reboot the iPad.
Tap the home button once. Then tap the home button twice and the recents tray will appear at the bottom of the screen. Tap and hold down on any app icon until it begins to wiggle. Tap the minus sign in the upper left corner of the mail icon. Tap the home button twice.
Reboot the iPad by holding down on the sleep and home buttons at the same time for about 10-15 seconds until the Apple Logo appears - ignore the red slider if it appears on the screen - let go of the buttons. Let the iPad start up.

Adobe Photoshop CS3 Will Not Install PLEASE HELP TRIED EVERYTHING

I downloaded from Adobe the Photoshop CS3 Extended Trial directly from Adobe. (BTW I am on Vista 32)
The first time I tried installing, ADBEPHSPCS3_WWE.exe successfully unpacked, I successfully transitioned to the Adobe Photoshop CS3 installation, and it appeared to install. After 30 minutes or so, the installer finished and simply said that shared components had installed but the Photoshop CS3 Component install failed.
I always got in the log Error 1935.An error occurred during the installation of assembly 'Microsoft.VC80.MFCLOC,version="8.0.50727.163",type="win32",publicKeyToken="1fc8b3b9a1e18 e3b",processorArchitecture="x86"'. Please refer to Help and Support for more information
This, I know, is everyones typical problem.
I turned off firewall and antivirus.
I uninstalled ALL Adobe and Macromedia programs, including Flash and Acrobat.
I used Windows Install Cleanup Utility to remove them.
I downloaded the CS3 Clear from Adobe and cleared at levels 1, 2, and 3.
I created the Administrator account on my computer and tried everything on the Administrator account.
I tried installing Photoshop CS3 with compatibility mode for XP SP2.
I tried:
1. Open an Administrator command prompt by right clicking on Start -> All
Programs -> Accessories -> Command Prompt and selecting "Run as
Administrator" and clicking "Allow" for the elevation prompt
2. In the command prompt, type the command below
fsutil resource setautoreset true C:\
3. Reboot the machine
I tried:
Get command prompt up. It has to be run with admin rights so save yourself some time and run it this way.........Start/programs/accessories/.....right click command prompt and click run as administrator.
Then paste these commands in 1 after the other
regsvr32 vbscript.dll (THEN PRESS ENTER)
and
regsvr32 jscript.dll (AGAIN PRESS ENTER)
I even tried installing in Safe Mode but the CS3 setup would not initialize.
I do not know what else to do. I have CS2 which I will use, but I was really hoping to move to CS3 which is supposed to be better and faster. Does anyone know anything else to do? I am not a computer noob but I am not about to reinstall Vista. If anyone has any suggestions they would be greatly appreciated.

I was in the same predicament and after spend many hours over several days trying a multitude of things I finally found an easy fix (below):
========================================
Assuming you have Internet Explorer 7 go to:
Tools/Internet option/Advanced
Click the Reset dialog box. This will bring IE7 back to its default settings. You should reboot your computer. After logging back into Windows load IE and let it take you though its initial setup. When you are done close IE and install Photoshop.. This worked for me,,, hopefully it will work for you!

Photoshop CS3 will not open in Windows 7 after functioning perfectly?

I have just installed Windows 7, 32-bit version within the last month. I reinstalled all my programs, including InDesign and Photoshop CS3. InDesign is working well. Photoshop CS3 worked fine until last week. Overnight Photoshop would not open! I have tried everything I can think of--deleting Preferences (it took me three days to find where it was, and the control-alt-shift doesn't work), and deleted a new program for viewing videos which was the only new program I had installed (just in case), then "repaired" the Photoshop using the original disk.
Finally was able to get into Photoshop BUT: Everything is screwy--colors are off, PS tells me I have only 1600 MB of RAM, when I know I have 2 Gigs installed, it looks really strange--everything is grayed out in a checkerboard pattern.
This is my third post on this issue--CAN ANYONE HELP ME?? I have been without my Photoshop for over a week, and desperately need to get it back. I am just now getting back on track, trying to get my website back, etal. after almost a year out of commission due to a broken back and crashed computer. Now I have my computer back and can't use PHOTOSHOP! HELP!
In addition, my computer suddenly says "We have had to revert to the basic Windows color scheme because there is one program that needs it (???), and then my desktop is all screwed up. I can't get my color management back--have to turn computer off and on again and then it's all right. This always happens after trying to enter Photoshop.
Please email me a response because this is getting very annoying, and debilitating. ([email protected])

Last week I spent 8 hours online with Sony trying to get Photoshop to work. They downloaded a new video card, and driver--nothing has seemed to work. After that I completely deleted Photoshop and re-installed it from scratch. It still does not work--colors are missing, RAM is incorrect--says I have 1678 MB RAM, when there are 2 gigs on the system. It's totally unusable. Since I am seriously thinking of upgrading to PS CS5, both InDesign and Photoshop, I am very nervous about whether that will work in Windows 7, especially after reading all the problems on this forum.
I read the other questions about CS3 and MAYBE it is a Windows Update. That is the only new thing I can think of to have caused this. Windows Restore is not feasible as I have been working on this problem for over three weeks, and can't go back that far.
My question is, is it feasible/safe to delete the LAST update where this happened? That's the only thing that hasn't been done.

Photoshop cs3 will not open any files when I try to open them?

Can somebody please help me? I have tried resetting my preferences in photoshop and it still does not work. I go to file < open < and the image does show up or anything I try to open in photoshop. I have windows xp and I am using photoshop cs3.

It almost sounds as though something has corrupted your installation of Adobe programs. It could be perhaps a necessary Common File being deleted, or corrupted.
Most Adobe programs offer the Repair Install feature, and I would see if it's available for CS3. CS2 Production Studio apps. allow for this. When I have had to do the Repair Install, I have just inserted the installation media (Disk 1), and have chosen Repair Install from the AutoRun menu. In some later versions, there was a Repair Install available from the Help menu, so you can look there too.
With suites, I have done the Repair Install for each program in the suite (CS2 Production Studio in my case), and just gone down the list (second, or third menu) of installed programs. For Production Studio, the whole process took no more than 45 mins. from the installation disks.
If you have lost something, the Repair Install should fix it.
Good luck,
Hunt

Drop downm menu will not display all options

On certain websites the full drop-down menu will not appear when a tab is clicked on, as if blocked by images on the current webpage. Same problem on internet explorer! I cannot access the drop-down options that I need...

If you are experiencing the same issue on another browser then it's not a Firefox issue and the support we can provide to solve this may be minimal.
Hello,
Try disabling graphics hardware acceleration. Since this feature was added to Firefox, it has gradually improved, but there still are a few glitches.
You might need to restart Firefox in order for this to take effect, so save all work first (e.g., mail you are composing, online documents you're editing, etc.).
Then perform these steps:
*Click the orange Firefox button at the top left, then select the "Options" button, or, if there is no Firefox button at the top, go to Tools > Options.
*In the Firefox options window click the ''Advanced'' tab, then select "General".
*In the settings list, you should find the ''Use hardware acceleration when available'' checkbox. Uncheck this checkbox.
*Now, restart Firefox and see if the problems persist.
Additionally, please check for updates for your graphics driver by following the steps mentioned in the following Knowledge base articles:
* [[Troubleshoot extensions, themes and hardware acceleration issues to solve common Firefox problems]]
* [[Upgrade your graphics drivers to use hardware acceleration and WebGL]]
Did this fix your problems? Please report back to us!
Thank you.

Adobe Photoshop CS3 will not run

I reloaded my windows xp 2005 (?) and tried to load my CS3 software. It will not even run. It has been suggested that the software can only be reloaded a certain number of times. I have reloaded this software 3-4 (?) times over the years. Is this the problem or is is something else?

Don't think there is a number of times you can re-install your program. You can only have 2 activated copies, so if you move to a different machine and don't deactivate on the old one it is still considered an activated copy.
But why would you uninstall and re-install your copy? THis rarely solves problems, espeically if you do not run the Adobe Script Cleaner. Also, the preference file is unchanged on a reinstall, so if there were errors in it before, they are still there.

Nothing loads, no prompts appear, Nothing. What did'nt happen? I am running XP 2 on Athlon dual core 5200+ 2Gig ram 250 gig disk. All other Adobe programs are still OK. Any help?

<begin soapbox mode>
Microsoft made a HORRIBLE design decision, way back with the very first version of Windoze, when they created a Registry file that was open to every program installed, or UNinstalled, on the computer
Over time, it is very common for the Registry to become so corrupted with bad or incomplete installs or UNinstalls, that no amount of tweaking will fix the problem
The only solution, as RB found, is to wipe the hard drive and install everything fresh
That HORRIBLE (this is, of course, only my opinion) design desision has cause more problems than anything else

PhotoShop CC will not play Layer Adjustment Actions Correctly

My computer has PhotoShop CC installed on a brand new Dell Windows 7 computer. Previously I used CS4 and it worked great, but now I'm having issues with CC playing back any Action that has layer adjusments. I'll record an action consisting of an edited layer adjustment such as curves, levels, brightness/conrast, etc., and then when I play it back the layer adjustment applied is the default 0. For instance, here I clicked "Create New Action" and labeled it "Curves Layer TEST":
add a new curves layer adjustment and label it "Brighten":
Then I add a few points to the curve (overly brightened to demonstrate my issue):
then I hit the Stop Recording button. But when I look at the curve values in the Actions box of the very curve layer I just recorded, it says the Preset Kind is Default. Why doesn't it say Custom??? The Properties box read "Custom" as I was editing the curve!
So anyway, I open up my nexy photo and play the Brighten action I just created...
and nothing happens to the image. Oh, it now has a curves layer on top, but it's the Default straight line. What happened to the curve I edited and recorded!!??
What's the deal? This is the same process I used in CS4, CS2 and every other PhotoShop incarnation and it worked fine, until CC. Is this a bug? Or is there a new process to creating layer adjustment actions???

Adobe added the adjustment panel in CS4. Adobe also changed how the action recorded records adding adjustment layers in CS4. Before the Adjustment panel when you clicked on one of the add adjustment layer icons Photoshop would open the adjustment type options dialog window which you would set and commit. When you committed the settings the action recorder would record a single step that added the adjustment layer with the setting you set. After Adobe added the adjustment panel the action recorder records a step Make adjustment layer Adjustment type preset default as soon as you click on the adjustmet type icon. If you then make changes to the settings when you move onto the next Photoshop operation the action recorder records a second step Set current adjustment layer to type preset kind custom and settings. Adobe also introduced many problems with the adjustment panel. The two step recoding can be a problem because it possible to add steps between the two steps and the step set current adjustment layer will fail if the targeted layer was changed by the addition. The adjustment panel also has two options in its fly-out menu the change Photoshop operation. They can break new and old actions that add adjustment layers. For how adjustment layers will get added may not be the way they were added when the action was recorded. These options work more like global Photoshop Preferences actions have no control over. However the options do not alway work like set. So if you try real hard you can record actions that add adjustment layers that will alway work the way you designed your action to work. Adobe does not want to fix these problems. I tried to get Adobe to fix these bugs for years. I have now given up.

Page w/3 Iviews will not display all iviews thru Portal Role?

Hello All,
I am having a problem with getting 2 of 3 iviews to display through my portal role(s). 1 of the iviews is a copy (generated thru the wizard with same properties) of the SAP Bank information iview and the other 2 I created in the KM content (1 is an image and the other is html). If I preview the page, I see all 3 of my iviews with no problem.
Just a little history, I created a new area page called payments which I tied Bank Information and w-4 to via config in the back end. I z copied all my resources and tied the correct PCD to them.
It almost seems that it is still calling the SAP delivered Bank information? But, I checked all my config and nothing that is configured is pointing to there iview/page?
Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated.
ESS 1.0 - EP7.0
Thanks,
Mike

Hello Priya,
Thank you for getting back to me so quickly on this. I did create a z copy of the bank information service and called it z_employee_bank_us_serv05. I created the iview with application name 'per_bank_us' and as for the 'Application Parameters', I did not fill anything in which leads me to my next question.
I know when I create a new area, that I need to fill in the application parameters of the path to the 'Area group pages'
(Example: sap.xss.menuarea=Z_EMPLOYEE_BENEFITPAY_ERP2005&sap.xss.menuargrp=Z_SAPDEFAULTESS_ERP2005&sap.xss.menuhdr=SAPDEFAULT),
What would the verbage that would need to be added to the application parameters for this just to point to the service?

Photoshop CS3 will not auto-rotate images...

After loading CS3 on my new MacBook Pro (3.06 Ghz Intel Core 2 Duo), Photoshop does not auto rotate images?
The finder rotates them...Bridge rotates them...Expression Media2 rotates them.....Photoshop does not
Obviously the camera, Nikon D2x, is set to tag vertical images for rotation. What gives? I can't find any sort of setting in PS for auto rotate.
It worked on my old laptop and on an old EMac.

Thanks! I appreciated the help. But I did that also.
It is a waste of my time to have to do this after every photo shoot. Photoshop and many other programs do this automatically. There has to be a reason for it not working on my new laptop. I even uninstalled and reinstalled CS3.
I was hoping for a solution not a work around....I guess I need to contact the Adobe support team. Do they frequent these forums or is it just us?
