Please help a newbie.  Can not get color replacement to work

Hello,
Let me start off by saying that I am a newbie to PS in general.  I have been on the software for a short period of time.  I was working with some images and I was making layers trying to bring color out of BW photos (make a BW layer and use the brush to get the color back in certain areas).  I installed RAW 5.3 and now when I make a BW layer I can not make the adjustments on the layer any longer.  I get an error message stating I can not make adjustments to the layer.  But in all the manuals I have it states to make the adjustments on the layer.  I am really confused.  I am looking at my plug ins on PS "homescreen" and there are 2 Camera RAWs (5.3 and 5.0).  I was wondering if I delete 5.0 that may help (how can I do this).  Also, I can make a color picture and remove the color from the main image, but that would just take too long to only bring out the color in a small area.  I am wondering why this process is now "reversed" 
Also, is there a setting that may not be right to make the color replacement on the layer that may not be right on my computer.  Again, all this started right after installing RAW 5.3.  I am running an iMac OS X v10.5.7.
I am sorry if I am leaving some information out, but I am a newbie and do not know what other information might be useful.
Thanks for any help, and please let me know if there is additional information that you may need to help me.
Thanks,
Mike

Camera RAW 5.4 is the newest

  • Please help. How can i get my mic to work??

    + Hi all
    I have a creative inspire 5. 5700 hooked up to my X-FI extreme music via Digital I/O port.
    However im a bit pissed off because i cant get a microphone to work, it seems that the port i use my speakers for is the same port as the microphone..
    Any ideas how to get my mic to work without unplugging the digital I/O?
    Cheers

    /Re: Please help. How can i get my mic to work? The only solution that I can think of is to get the?X-Fi I/O Dri've. Unfortunately, Creative does not sell this anymore on their store. You can buy it online, though most places I find it at, it is refurbished.
    This is what it looks like: http://us.creative.com/products/prod...5&product=4659#
    The other alternati've is the X-Fi I/O Console. This, however is rather expensi've (I think it is anyways).

    Unfortunately those are the only ways I know of. The X-Fi Xtreme Music does not hook into normal front panel solutions.

    Try opening the device manager and remove your sound hardware and then rediscover.  This works often.  Let me know how it goes.

    You were already provided the answer. If you do not have a backup of the phone while the photos were on the phone, they are gone. When you restore your phone from an old backup, anything that has been saved to the phone since that backup is deleted. Sorry.

  • TS2446 Please help me,I can not purchase from apple store becuse it is ask me the secirty question in my apple ID but I forget my secrity question

    Hello,
    Please help me,I can not purchase from apple store becuse it is ask me about the secirty question in my apple ID but I forget my secrity question.
    Thanks,

    If you can't remember them then go to Express Lane  and select 'iTunes' from the list of 'products' in the middle of the screen.
    Then select 'iTunes Store', and on the next screen select 'Account Management'
    Next choose 'iTunes Store Account Security' and fill in that you'd like your security questions/answers reset.
    You should get an email reply within about 24 to 48 hours (and check your Spam folder as well as your Inbox). A month or two ago Apple had temporarily suspended the reseting of security question/answers whilst account security processes were improved, but that may now have finished.

  • Help... I can not get my microphone to work

    Help.... I can NOT get my microphone to work with my Blaster X-Fi XtremeGamer Fatal1ty Professional card. When I plug it in and test it (in either Configure Speech Recoginition - Windows Vista / or in Counter-Strike Source, Test Microphone Button under the game options) both indicate that the system is not receiving any sound. However, both the speakers (5.1) and headphones work fine. I am using a Plantronics headset.
    I am not sure what I am doing wrong. Below are my complete system specifications. Let me know what additional information you need, if any.

  • Migration Assistant: Problems transferring data from PC (XP SP3) to new Mac Pro 2012 - can not get Migration Assistant to work as PC will not display verfify passcode

    Migration Assistant: Problems transferring data from PC (XP SP3) to new Mac Pro 2012 - can not get Migration Assistant to work as PC will not display verfify passcode
    Hello, I am having problems migrating data from my old PC running XP (SP3) to my new Mac Pro 2012 using the Migration Assistant.
    - I downloaded and installed the Windows Migration Assistant from Apple
    - My Mac recognized PC and displays passcode
    - The sasscode does not show / display on my PC
    - My Mac is then stuck in "authenticating" loop and the PC is stuck "waiting for Mac to connect."
    - Both computers are connected on same network (have connected PC on WIFI and using ethernet to Reuter)
    I have looked on support site and only response I saw says to reinstall Windows Migration Assistant (which I have done)
    Any ideas?  If cant get this to workare there instructions for manually bring across relevant data eg itunes music and apps, photos, picasa data etc?

    Why not turn off the Windows firewall and uninstall any other firewall software you have installed?
    If you are using a Norton product uninstall it and discard it. To fully unistall most Norton products you have to go to the Norton website and download a soecial program to completely get rid of it. The normal uninstall feature built into the program will not remove all of it.
