Probelms with PS CS5 - Cant add a transparent gradient layer mask to a layer - please help
My company just upgraded us to cs5 on our macs. I was working along in photoshop & dont know if I hit something inadvertently or what but all of a sudden I cannot add a black to transp gradient to a layer mask. Ive searched around even saved out and re-loaded the gradients from my pc (which has the black to transparent gradient in the gradient editor & the process works fine).
Funny thing is that in the mac gradient picker, the black to transparent gradient is black and solid white but the name of it is 'black to transparent' in the editor. Ive tried
I guess my questions would be how would one make a transparent gradient, or how would one reset the gradients to default becuase every time i delete all the gradients the add a new .grd file from my pc, it still does not show the gradient.
Its amazing how such a small thing like this saves so much time and its eating me up that I cant get this to work
Thanks in advance, Mark

This is where I finally found the prefs.psp file. At least this is the way my Vista machinie is set up. Your "User" config may be diferrent from mine.
But, Thanks for the right answer!. My transparent layer is now only showing the faint gray checkboard instead of black.

I Have followed all the steps and still cant remove iCloud to my existing account and add to the new one, the old email account was changed a year ago and cant get that email plus the password don't work please HELP!
Welcome to the Apple community.
This feature has been introduced to make stolen phones useless to those that have stolen them.
However it can also arise when the user has changed their Apple ID details with Apple and not made the same changes to their iCloud account/Find My Phone on their device before upgrading to iOS 7, or if you restore from a previous back up made before you changed your details.
The only solution is to change your Apple ID back to its previous state with Apple at My Apple ID using your current password, you don’t need access to this address if it’s previously been used with your Apple ID, once you have saved these details enter the password as requested on your device and then turn off "find my phone".
You should then change your Apple ID back to its current state, verify it once again, delete the iCloud account from your device and then log back in using your current Apple ID. Finally, turn "find my phone" back on once again.

My phone wont let me download anything even free stuff or update.it keep saying something wrong with my billing info so i fix it but still cant download.I signed out sign back in still nothing please help i'm getting angry
If it says your billing info is wrong that means that your credit card issuer is refusing to approve your account. You will have to solve the problem with your bank or credit card company.

Does the iPod connect to other networks?
If you restored to factory settings/new iPod and still does not connect to any network that indicates a hardware problem.
If you only can't connect to your network that indicates a problem with your network.
Make an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store..

When I try to open iPhoto (9.2.1) it says 'You can't use this version of the application iPhoto with this version of OS X. All my photos are on there. Please help. Thank you.
Did you upgrade to a new MacOS X version? Then you need to update iPhoto as well.
Only iPhoto 9.6 is compatible with MacOS X 10.10 Yosemite. Update from the Mac App Store.
Backup your iPhoto library, if you do not have a current backup.
Launch the App Store, click the "Store" menu, and sign in with your current AppleID.
Check the "Updates" tab of the App Store for an iPhoto update and run the update.
When you laugh iPhoto after the update, it will warn you, that the library needs upgrading, That may take a while.
Just in case that you see a warning, that the update is not possible because of an error message: "This update is not available for this Apple ID either because it was bought by a different user or the item was refunded or cancelled."
Uninstall iPhoto by deleting it from the Applications folder, but do not empty the Trash, so you can put iPhoto back, if need be.
Launch the App Store, click the "Store" menu, and sign in with your current AppleID.
Open the main page "Featured" of the App Store and search for iPhoto.
If iPhoto is listed as "Free", click the "Free" button to buy it with your current AppleID.
If it is not showing as free, there is no help but contacting the App Store Support to sort out the AppleID. Use this link: http://www.apple.com/support/mac/app-store/contact/ -

I did force shutdown on my MacBook Pro (2006 year, 15.4"), so, when I tried to boot, it shows apple logo (as usual) and shuts down. When I booting MacBook with Option key pressed it shows lock icon and field for password. Please help me.
Wait for advice on repairing a damaged filesystem. Forceshutdown stops processs in mid-stream and leaves some parts not-valid.
Do not proceed until you get that avice. -
I can connect to internet with my MBP through Airport Extreme, but my iOS devices can't. Please help.
GerleMan, Welcome to the discussion area!
There are two probably causes:
Your ISP is blocking the port used by Entourage to send mail and the ISP used by the other wireless networks is not.
OR
Your ISP doesn't like OS X's default MTU seting of 1500. If this were the case it should also affect any large file transfers you try to make from your Mac to the Internet. -
