Problem using adjustment tools??

Hi All,
Playing around with the adjustment tools in new Photos. All seem to work, with the exception of Colors and Light. Whether using the auto slider or the fine tuned settings (exposure, highlights, shadows, etc) I can't seem to get any changes in the image.
Any idea what I'm doing wrong??

I was having issues using Adjustments too. Everything else was fine except non-functioning Adjustments, but I re-launched Photos and the adjust controls seemed to work. I am pretty new to this app myself and have lots of exploring to do. Previously used iPhoto full time.

  • Unable to Use Adjust Tool or Effects Tool

    I'm using iPhoto 7.1.5. On my MacBook Pro, when I go into edit mode and click on either the Adjust tool or the Effects tool, nothing happens. No windows open to allow me to edit with these tools. The other tools (red eye, enhance, retouch, crop) work just fine.
    I've tried trashing the plist file for iPhoto and also tried logging in as a different user, but the problem persists. Any help would be most appreciated!

    Before you re-install:
    Start with the troubleshooting basics:
    1. Repair Permissions using Disk Utility
    2. Create a new account (systempreferences -> accounts) and see if the problem is repeated there. If it is, then a re-install of the app might be indicated. If it's not, then it's likely the app is okay and the problem is something in the main account.
    As a rule, no, re-installing the app will not affect the Library.
    To re-install iPhoto
    1. Put the iPhoto.app in the trash (Drag it from your Applcations Folder to the trash)
    2. Go to HD/Library/Receipts and remove any pkg file there with iPhoto in the name
    3. Re-install.
    If you purchased an iLife Disk, then iPhoto is on it.
    If iPhoto was installed on your Mac when you go it then it’s on the System Restore disks that came with your Mac. Insert the first one and opt to ‘Install Bundled Applications Only...’

  • LR 2 - tiff file not saving as jpeg when using adjustment tool

    LR2, photoshop CS2, XP, 4gig ram

    process raw file in LR2
    export to 16bit tiff
    then to send to my photo libary i have an action set up in photoshop CS2
    image mode - 8bit
    fit image 1200
    save as jpeg
    close
    this works well and i use it nearly every day
    however today I had problems with the action
    it would stop on certain photos and say
    'couldnt complete your request because of a program error'
    when I came to look at which photos were causing the problem i found out that
    ALL photos that wouldnt save to jpeg
    were photos I had used the ADJUSTMENT TOOL on
    A BUG?

    >A BUG?
    No...the error message: 'couldnt complete your request because of a program error' is an indication that your Photoshop preferences are hosed...reset the prefs.

  • Problem using nss Tool

    Dear All
    I am using a nss Security Tool to view my cert stored in mozilla firefox cert store on windows XP. when i tried to run certutil command it gives me error "This application has failed to start because libplc4.dll was not found. Re-install the application may fix this problem". i downloaded nspr-4.1.1.zip. after unziping i tried to register the libplc4.dll with regsvr32.exe command. it gave me error "DllRegisterServer entry point was not found". i know this problem occurs if dll is corrupt. i again downloaded and tried but the same result. i also tried it by copied all the dll's in the nspr-4.1.1.zip in bin dir of nss tool, because .net dll can work without manually registering it. the same error comes again. i searched my program files for any other libplc4.dll. i found one in my eToken dirver directory.Though seems illogical but i also tried to uninstall the driver and install it again. same error occured.
    can anyone help me.

  • Problem with adjustment tools in ver. 2.1 and and also in ver.3

    When I try to adjust pictures in Aperture 2.1.2 the viewer window often goes total black. Even if I just touch one of the adjustment options a little bit. It happens both when I use raw and jpg.
    I was hoping the problem was solved when I did the updates to version 3 - but I still have this problem. The problem happens very occationally and have nothing to do with the size of the picture
    Any help for solve this problem will be appreciated
    Regards - Frank

    The buttons are on the same line. I would like to upgrade to 2.2 and I'm sure that we will at some point, but it won't happen without some time dedicated to testing. I'd like to get this figured out with version 2.1. The strange part is that it just showed up after the portlet was enhanced. I looked at everthing changed and I can't figure out what could have caused it. Anyone have any idea what would cause 2 buttons in one TD tag not to both receive the onclick event?

  • Problems using Type Tool

    Hi
    I'm a bit of newbie to Indesign and was just wondering if someone could help me out. I'm having problems with the Type Tool.
    I've been working on my first few documents, (simple 1 page postcards), but when I go back to add some more text using the Type Tool it doesn't create the usual type frame/box and the cursor just goes straight to the top left hand side of the document? I'm sure I must be doing something wrong.
    Apologies if the answer is dead simple.
    Cheers

    You probably have a rectangle as a background on your page? When you click anywhere on that rectangle with text tool, it converts your rectangle to text frame and insertion point jumps to top-left corner of frame.
    It´s a bit annoying but you can get rid of that feature from preferences, in Type tab, there is a checked feature Text tool converts frames to text frames (or something like that) Just uncheck it... Then you have to change those accidentally converted rectangles back to grapgic frames (Select rectangle and choose Object>Content>Graphic)
    If you don´t want to stop using that feature, you can also draw your text frame outside of page, type you text and move it right position

    You haven;t specified the exceptions you r getting ........while starting your default server.
    if u r getting exception about InetClass then connect your system with LAN/Internet then your problem will be solved becoz i m using same location address as you specified, space doesn't matter at all - i think so, it is running fine........

  • Problem using magnifying tool

    Since a few days back the usage of the magnifying tool has changed, don't know what I've done and can't fix it.
    Previously the magnifying glass enlarged and reduced the image while I moved the mouse ponter, its was flowing with my movement. But now it just works as in previous versions, I have to click for zoom in/out. Not just click drag, now its "click, click, click, click, click, click".
    Help appreciated.

    Most likely you have turned off "Scrubby Zoom", just check the box in the Zoom tool settings. All tools remeber their settings, if you wish to reset a tool to it's default settings, right-click on the Zoom tool (in this case) to the left on the tool settings bar and select "Reset Tool" or "Reset All Tools"...

  • Problem using PSE9 Brush Tool!

    I am experiencing a problem using the PSE9 Brush Tool. The color does produced by the brush not match the color of the sample picked by the Eyedropper Tool, Painting near the area where the sample was picked-up results in a much darker color.

    Check the blend modes for the brush tool in the tool options bar.
    Also if your painting on a blank layer check the blend modes in the layers panel.
    Either way try the Normal mode.

  • Problem with InDesign CC redrawing the screen too slow while using Zoom tool

    Hello. I got a problem with InDesign CC redrawing the screen too slow while using Zoom tool. Sometimes it takes more than a secong to zoom in or out. However InDesign CS6, Photoshop CC, Illustrator CC works just fine. What could be the problem, videocard or something else? Below is my PC configuration: OS Windows 8 Pro (x64); processor Intel Core i7 2600k CPU 3,40GHz; video adapter NVIDIA GeForse GTS 450; monitor NEC PA271W (2560x1440).

    Yes it’s a bug. The trick is to select the tool and then left click the photo information strip and hold for a few seconds until you see the windows bar at the top of the screen (not responding)
    The lasso tool should then work normally.

  • Z68a-GD65 (G3) Problems Using USB Bootable Tool 1.25g

    I am having problems using the USB Bootable Tool 1.25g with the P77, P80, and P82 BIOS's. I have tried both modes 1 and 2. Both modes copy over everything successfully. When booting using the bootable USB drive, after copying the BIOS file via mode 1, the tool flashes a screen very quickly, then says BIOS updated successfully. This is not true, however, because nothing has been updated. I see something rapidly go 1-2-3-4-5, but the progress indicator I was familiar with with the old version of the USB Bootable tool does not show up, where the BIOS file was being copied block by block and took some time.
    Mode 2 doesn't work either. I get the message "ROMFILE ROMID is not compatible with existing BIOS". This happened with all three BIOS's, using mode 2. I have tried the "Fix my USB Key" option, and have tried clearing the CMOS as described in the instructions on the forum. As a test, I used the M-Flash in the BIOS and was able to flash to P80. P80 is giving me problems with an Intel Management Mode HECI error which disappears when I start the PC, as well as me being unable to raise the base clock speed--even though it shows as raised in the BIOS and it saves the setting. I am now stuck with P80. Now I cannot flash to any other BIOS using the M-Flash utility, as it doesn't find the BIOS file I manually copied over to the drive. The USB bootable tool will not work.

    I did use mode 1, although since I was having trouble, I used mode 2 also, after reading troubleshooting instructions for the USB BIOS tool. The archives I used were all ones I downloaded from the Beta BIOS thread I posted above.
    The problems I was having with P80 were actually because I unknowingly was using the N20 BIOS because somehow my BIOS reverted to that. I have no idea how that happened, aside from that possibly being the failsafe BIOS as part of the dual bios system. Above, I meant to say that I flashed the BIOS through Windows when I had success with the P80 BIOS. The M-Flash utility does not read the BIOS files which are available on this forum.
