Problems with pressure sensitivity CS3

Hiya! As my title says, I'm having problems with pressure sensitivity in CS3. I use an HP Pavilion tx2000 (or, more specifically, tx2115nr) hybrid tablet-PC. I used the help feature to see if my brush settings were set correctly...but it seems that CS3 just isn't registering that I'm using a tablet at all (it shows a little yellow caution triangle warning that I need a tablet for the pressure-sensitive settings; I'm not sure if it's supposed to do that or not). I used a (sorely outdated) version of Photoshop that worked just fine with my tablet-PC, and I find it rather discouraging that CS3 isn't working...can anyone help me solve this problem?
If I'm missing any necessary information needed to help solve this problem, just lemme know and I'll post it ASAP.

I have an nvidia chipset with an nforce motherboard...I don't know how to check who made my screen, though.
The only way I know how to check if my drivers are updated is through Windows Updates...the only update I have that's not language packs is an update for Wacom (it says "Wacom - Input - Wacom USB Touch"), not really sure why though since I don't have a Wacom tablet, just my PC...anyway, I'm going to update and see if that solves my problem.

  • Illustrator CC issue with pressure sensitivity and blob brush.

    Hello I ran into this issue yesterday and can't seem to find a way to fix it.
    When using the blob brush, pressure sensitivity with my wacom intuos 5 works as expected. However if I switch to the regular brush tool and draw with that tool then switch back to the blob brush tool, pressure sensitivity stops working until I open the Blob brush's preferences and change any setting then click OK.
    My machine:
    Retina Macbook Pro
    Core i7 2.3 Ghz
    16GB RAM
    Nvidia 650M 1GB
    OSX 10.9.2
    Illustrator 17.1.0
    Already tried:
    - Deleting Illustrator's preferences
    - Reinstalling Wacom Drivers
    - Reinstalling Illustrator
    Yet the problem persists. Any ideas? Is this a bug?

    I was having the same problem. I wanted to use the blob tool and it was set to 2 point from a previous session. Every time I went to use it I got a 5 point round brush with no pressure sensitivity. It drove me crazy for awhile until I finally tried setting the blob brush to something different. After that it was fine, and I could switch back to 2 point and it began to work as expected. It seems like there's a small hiccup somewhere.

  • Painting with pressure sensitivity on my wacom?

    Using a Mac, CS6, and a Wacom intros 5Touch PTH-450, I am using the 6D Art Pen Brushes:
    1. no matter how hard I press on the Wacom, it always displays the paint stroke the same. How do you get pressure sensitivity working?
    2. I changed my variable width profile, though when painting with the Wacom it does not seem to apply the variable width. How do you enable this with a Wacom?
    Thanks!

    I would first try uninstalling and reinstalling the Wacom driver. That has helped me before when my tablet wasn't working properly.

  • Problems with viewing in CS3

    I am using Dreamweaver CS3 on a MacBook and have recently started experiencing frustrating problems in using Dreamweaver.
    Very recently I am now no longer able to see the current CSS displayed for the element I wish as when I click on it at the bottom of the page, it will only display an element further up the hierarchy (see screenshot http://imageshack.us/photo/my-images/651/screenshot20120224at093.jpg/) . You can see that I would like to see the details for ul but it won't show anything but #mainContainer.
    I am also experiencing other problems on some (not all) sites I work on such as text and images disappearing in design view. I can get them back by toggling the show CSS button but it is getting very annoying as I have to do this after nearly every change I make.  I have read other posts about this problem on this forum as I am not the only one and have tried repairing fonts as suggested but it hasn't made any differnce. The sites where I seem to be experiencing this involve jQuery sliders and galleries so am not sure if there is some kind of conflict here.
    I have reinstalled Dreamweaver this morning to see if this would cure my problems but unfortunately it hasn't.
    I would really like an answer to my first problem of not being able to view current CSS as I think this is a Dreamweaver issue and nothing to do with any coding as such but mention the other problem in case it is related and also hoping for a resolution for that as well.
    Many thanks
    Lisa

    That Intel Pentium message is misleading and you can normally ignore it I don't think it is related to you problem with viewing thumbnails.
    Can you give us the following information? Most of it can be found by right-clicking on the "Computer" icon and choosing Properties.
    Vista version
    Processor
    Photoshop version number
    Amount of RAM installed
    Make and model number of video card

  • I am having problems with my Dreamweaver CS3 installation

    I called adobe for help and was connected to technical support. My issue is that I am unable to reinstall dreamweaver (CS3web premium) and the tech person told me that my cd was corrupt. His instruction was to drag all my adobe apps , which, apart from dreamweaver, worked fine, to the trash. when i attempted to reinstal all I got an error message, missing resources. At this point the tech person told me that I would have to upgrade as all of my app licences had been cencelled by dragging to trash.
    This is a tremendoes disservice and if it represents adobe policy it will ultimately destroy adobe.

    You receive an error message regarding missing resources when you try to install?  To locate the exact source of your installation error I would recommend you review the installation logs.  You can find steps on how to accomplish this at Troubleshoot installation with install logs | CS3, CS4 - http://helpx.adobe.com/creative-suite/kb/troubleshoot-installation-install-logs-cs3.html.

  • Problem with case sensitivity 7.3.4

    Hi,
    We are having a problem with JDBC being unable to handle a lower
    case on a SQL statement execution. For eg: Like '%S%' works but
    not '%s%'.
    Any suggestions
    Thanks,

    Hi Ganesh,
    it's not a jdbc problem. when u try to query
    using matches (%'s), it looks for exact match.
    u can Compare the values by converting them
    to uppercase using to_upper.
    ex: where to_upper(table_field_name) = to_upper('%
    ur_string_value%') ...

  • Problems with context-sensitive HTML made from importing FM 10 to RH9

    This worked in October and it doesn’t work now.
    Start with a clean, well-formatted Frame 10 book with multiple chapters.  Chapters, Heading 1, 2 and 3 headings have various FM Markers TopicAlias with ID for calling the help.
    Example of FM marker: ID_HELP_SYSTEM_DEFAULT
    Import FM book to RH 9 –pointed to an AllStyles.fm doc as a template, pagination on the above 4 headings, cross-refs mapped, on the Other Settings page the Context Sensitive Help Marker is set to TopicAlias.
    Import looks spiffy;  great TOC, Index, formatting, links, everything is exactly like I expected. Create chm file help. It looks great too. This part works well IMO.
    My.h file is formatted with Hex number to match the application’s call.
    Example:
    #define ID_HELP_SYSTEM_DEFAULT 0x3F131
    #define ID_HELP_EDITDATASET_TOOLBAR 0x3F132
    Rename my mapping h file to BSSCDefault.h and put in root directory replacing the one RH makes.  [When RoboHelp makes an h file, the numbers it assigns do not match what my application calls for. Changing these is not an option. I have hundreds of mapped IDs.]
    Reopen RH  and view the BSSCDefault. h file from RH. It has magically changed the Hex numbers to 6 digit numbers.
    Example:
    ID_HELP_SYSTEM_DEFAULT              258353      Saving Project Defaults as System Defaults
    ID_HELP_EDITDATASET_TOOLBAR  258354      Editing Datasets Using the Mouse
    The Mapped IDs are blue and are not locked.  My FM TopicAlias Markers are all listed as Map IDs, I have Map#s for them and they point to the correct topic.  The center panel  shows Assign as grayed out. The project that worked in October looked just like this too, I checked.
    Recomplie. Place new chm file in application. It will open from the menu item for Help, it will open from F1 but it will not open from any of the mapped Help buttons.
    I uninstalled/reinstalled RH 9 and tried reimporting/compileing with an unpatched version. No change, still borked.
    There has not been a change in the application; there are no new IDs in this version. I tried the new compiled help in an older version of my application and it will not work. Same behavior.
    Any suggestions? Anyone else have this problem? What am i missing?

    I dont use the settings file, I use a FrameMaker doc as a template. It has all my styles and I set the others before the import. There arent very many.
    But, since you import from Frame, would you look at this and verify?
    Looking at Map File in the Edit Map IDs dialog On the left the panel the Map ID is listed, then the Map # and finally the topic title.
    Do your Topics show a notation at the end?
    Example: Averaging Datasets #CSH_71
    Then on the Topic panel if you find that same topic you see
    Topic symbol -Averaging Datasets   [and the Topic properties show “no map ids for this topic]
    Bookmark symbol -Averaging Dataset#CSH_71 [topic properties show the map id when you select it]
    Bookmark symbol -Averaging Datasets#IX_averaging_datasets
    Bookmark symbol-Averaging Datasets#XREF_25075_Averaging Datasets
    I understand the Index and cross ref markers, but the isolated book mark is odd. You would think the notation would be on the topic
    The chm file from October works in my latest build, and the developers swearz they changed NOTHING in the way it is called. I still have to talk to QM who do the builds just in case.

  • Problem with Paintbrush/Eyedropper CS3

    I apologize for the repost, my first time I posted it in the CS6 forums and was kindly directed here.
    I have the full CS Suite 3 and my issue is with the Photoshop aspect. It has worked for me beautifully for many years and, unfortunately, has come into a problem recently. When I select a color using the eyedropper tool (sample size 3 by 3 Average) it selects the color. Then, upon attempting to paint that color, it uses a color that is washed out by comparison. It selects the right color but the paint brush (I'm using the standard, 27 pixel soft brush, normal mode, 100% opacity, 100% flow) will not paint that color. It looks like it's adding more white to it or adding a muddled grey color. I'm not amused with this at all.
    I'm not certain whether it is my having accidentially hit something as to make this happen or if it is the program glitching. I uninstalled and reinstalled and, unfortunately, am still finding the problem. I will try uninstalling and reinstalling again (this time deleting all the preferences) to see if that may fix it. It does this with multiple images (all .psd files, multiple layers) so I know that it's not the single file being corrupt. I really hope someone can help me because I'm about ready to throw my CPU in the trash and set it on fire.
    Thank you in advance for any assistance you can be

    Hi mctreeburger
    May be you can try this option.
    While opening Illustrator hold the Control+Shift+Alt and click the icon. It resents to all your default settings.
    Remember that you may lose  your custom keyboard shortcuts. It comes just like when you install CS3 first time.
    Hope it works fine, try and let me know.
    Regards

  • Problem with updating links CS3

    Greetings.
    I've been using InDesign for sometime now, so I'm not a newbie.  Recently something changed in CS3, probably at my urging, although I have no idea what I did to do it.  I want to UNDO it.
    I work on training publications.  The manuals have either jpg or png's of a powerpoint presentation as graphics within the document.  My process in the past is to place the first slide, format it, size it, etc. as I like it.  See below:
         1.  Place Slide1.jpg
         2.  Size and apply style to Slide1.jpg
         3.  Copy formatted & sized Slide1.jpg
         4.  Paste
         5.  Relink to Slide2.jpg
         6.  Repeat 4 and 5.
    Has worked well for me until last week.
    I was on a rush project that had a zillion of these slides.  I placed my first one, did the formatting, copied it, pasted it, went to relink it, and the original changed also.  I went through the help files, couldn't find what I wanted.  If I relink any slide that is remotely related to the original copy and paste, they all change. So I tried dragging it to a library, and dragging it out each time, relink.  It worked.
    Today however, I have a new training manual, did the original process, sure enough, the original changed with the copy.  Dragged the png to the library, and did the process.  Now the slides taken out of the library when relinked, all change to the relink.  They won't remain as their original link.  This is driving me daffy.
    I have looked at the Link options, I have tried showing the import dialog for the original place, nothing says "link all subsequent copies and irritate the computer operator"
    I don't want to have to place and size each slide.  I haven't found that Object Style will take care of the size issue.  Only the formatting.  One of the reviewers is the type that will take a ruler and measure each to make sure they are all the same size (I know I know, but its government work, what can I say)
    Anyone come across this or know what setting I screwed up?

    I knew it had to be something like that . . . duhhhhhh.
    thank you!!

  • Problem with Updates I-CS3

    Every time I try to install an up date for Illustrator CS3 I get the following message...
    "Updater did not Worked"
    Yes, "did not Worked".   Must have been created out of the coutry.
    Running Vista on a PC.
    Why can't I install updates.
    Cheers!  Phil

    Sorry that my solution lead you to all this work in vain - for me re-installing always did the job.
    It looks like there are some updates available. Maybe the associated help files give any hints about what you can investigate next:

  • Problem with AIR Flash CS3 Italian version

    I have installed the Adobe AIR update for Flash CS3 italian
    mac version but in the welcome screen I don't see the Flash File
    (Adobe AIR) preset.I know about the fix that consists in deleting
    the folder HD:/Users/<username>/Libraries/Application
    Support/Adobe/Flash CS3/<language>/Configuration/StartPage
    and I did it, but the problem remains. Now what should I do?

    Hi Alessandro,
    Please try rerunning the Adobe AIR Update for Flash CS3 to
    see if the problem can be solved.
    If after running the updater again and it still doesn't work,
    the workaround is to create a Flash 9 (ActionScript 3.0) fla. Then
    selecting Commands > AIR - Application and Installer Settings
    and Flash will ask if you want convert the publish settings to
    Adobe AIR, click yes.
    Thanks,

  • Pressure Sensitivity not available in CS4

    I have a Calcomp DrawingBoard lll with pressure sensitive stylus which works fine in other applications like Painter 11 but loses its pressure capabilities in CS4 (both AI and PS). The stylus behaves like a mouse but in shape dynamics the pen pressure settings show a warning sign and in AI they are grayed out. It performed correctly in CS3.
    Any hints?
    Thanks
    Jon

    Photoshop CS4 has had the tablet input re-written or somethign to that effect. The specific tablets it is designed with in mind are by Wacom, so it may be an issue that may not be fixed. What Operating System are you on?
