PS CC 2014 - Brush tool will not draw a continuous line

Brush tool will not draw a continuous line, I am on a macbook pro.
Click and drag - I only get a spot.
Very frustrating.

Thanks for your answer PK. I really expected this to work as an ok workaround.... Now I've found that I cannot even cmd+tab back into CC.
Let's say I tab out into Safari. I get the Safari window on top of CC. I tab back to CC and nothing happens.
So I have to click back into the CC window to bring it back.
Does anyone know if that is a bug that Adobe are looking into?

Photoshop CC 2014 for PC will not copy or paste

Running:
Photoshop CC 2014 for PC
Windows 8.1 Pro, R2 64 bit, AMD FX3 8350 with 16GB RAM. 75% of RAM free
Photoshop CC 2014 for PC will not copy or paste.
When I create a line of text and want to copy and paste the text in the same document, the copy and paste functions are not working. The commands on the Edit menu are grayed out. CTL+C and CTL+X and CTL+V do not work.
I have the correct layer selected.
There is nothing else selected, just the text.
Copy and paste fail on new documents, existing documents, documents with backgrounds, documents without backgrounds.
I deleted all my Photoshop settings in Roaming>Adobe>Photoshop CC 2014
I uninstalled Photoshop without saving preferences, removed all files and folders and then reinstalled.
Photoshop will still not copy and paste.

I honestly don't know what may be wrong on your system to cause what you're seeing, but I can confirm that on my fully updated Windows 8.1 Pro x64 system equipped with ATI 7850 I can do cut/copy/pastes as you would like to do, so it's not a basic incompatibility.
Are you selecting the characters by dragging the mouse across them, then copying?
When pasting, have you set an insertion point first?

On a mac the type tool will not display when i double click on the type button in the layers panel

The type tool will not display. So I can't change text format.

Thank you for your response. I am using PSE version 11, OS 10.9.4.
I figured out the issue. The Text Tool was displayed but it was off the bottom of the screen. I had to resize the window from the bottom to display the Text Tool. To do so I had to move the dock to the left and then learn that by using the Option key it is possible to change window size on both edges.
Problem solved, thank you.

Brush Tool is not working with Layer Mask

Working with Windows platform, using Photoshop CS4, Brush Tool is not working with Layer Mask, how can I resolve this challenge?

Also, do you have any Selections active - maybe hidden?
When you have your Layer Mask's Channel active, do your Colors change to black and white?
Good luck,

Direct Selection Tool Will Not Scale

For some reason my direct selection tool will not scale or stretch any vector or raster imgaes - CS5. I can only grab a corner and simply move the art. Does anyone have a fix for this? Maybe I hit some quick command keys and did not know it?

The Direct Selection Tool (the white arrow, shortcut "a") has never had that capability. All it's ever done is select and move points. You need to use the Selection Tool (the black arrow, shortcut "v") to do those things. If you want to scale, stretch, etc... a sub-selection of an object, you can make your selection with the white arrow and then use the transform tool (shortcut "e") to modify what you selected.

Online Backup / Sharing Tool will not let me log in

I am trying to set up the online backup and sharing, using the downloaded software for a Mac running OS 10.7.3. I have installed, activated, etc, etc, etc. HOWEVER, the desktop tool will not accept any combination of ID and password, including the Primary Account ID and password under which online backup and sharing was purchased. I have re-downloaded, re-installed, and re-started multiple times, and continue to get "invalid user name or password".
What is the trick I'm missing here? Which ID and Password does this beaties want?
MJ
Solved!
Go to Solution.

After chasing through online chats and two phone calls, the answer is: the download software doesn't work with OS 10.7 -- would have been nice to know that up front. Their plans to upgrade to support 10.7 are 'some time this year'.

The Ethernet Port will not recognize that my line is plugged in... Help!

Hello... My modem recently died on me and my internet service provider installed a new one. Since then, my Airport will not recognize the ethernet line coming from the modem. I have access to the internet only by a direct plug-in to my mac from the modem.
I have shut it down, restarted, re-installed and keep getting the same response from the airport: no ethernet found.
Any ideas on how I can get my wireless back?
Thank you in advance.

Try turning off the wireless on your computer and temporarily connect it to one of the LAN <-> ports on the AirPort Extreme to see if you can get an Internet connection that way.
What happens when you try this?

Flash CC Brush Tool abruptly stops drawing when stage size is small

When using the Brush Tool, I'm having an issue that the stroke I'm drawing will abrupty cut off at a certain point on the screen (roughly halfway down the monitor, it doesn't relate to the canvas position or any coordinates). This seems to happen when I have the Stage size set to a smaller size (64 x 64 pixels for example). I've been able to reproduce the same behavior on multiple files, and on both a Windows 8.1 machine and a Windows 7 machine, both using the up-to-date version of Flash CC. Both machines are dual monitor, I'm not sure if that plays a factor in this.
To reproduce:
1. Create a new FLA in Flash CC and set the stage size to 64 x 64 pixels.
2. Use the Brush Tool and attempt to draw from the top to the bottom of the screen (zoom level and position on the canvas does not matter, as long as your cursor is going from near the top of your monitor to the bottom of your monitor).
3. The stroke will abruptly cut off mid-drawing at a certain point on the screen, roughly half-way down. You can continue to draw and move upwards and it will reappear when it crosses this barrier again.
This does not happen if the stage size is set to something larger (640 x 480 for example). This also does happen in Flash CS5 or CS6, and have only noticed this happening in Flash CC.
This is happening using the mouse for drawing, and also happened when I tested it on a different PC with a Wacom tablet attached.
Is this happening for others as well, and is there any fix for this behavior? (aside from always using a large stage size)

Adobe Flash Professional CC 2014 [Brush Tool Problem]

Hello I have been trying to fix a problem with the brush tool I found out about recently. [ I have a graphic tablet/drawing tablet ] Every time I have the brush tool selected, and try to write something a line is drawn on the canvas. It's really hard for me to explain the problem so here is a screenshot.
I don't know how to fix this problem, and I already tried to re-install the software, but it doesn't seen to make any difference. Any suggestions?

Hi All,
Thanks for your patience. Patch for FlashPro CC 2014 (Build No. 14.2.0.20) was released yesterday, requesting you to please update, try and let us know if you still face any issues.
You can update your Flash CC 2014 build by just going to Help>Updates or through Creative Cloud App.

My CS6 Brush Tool does not sample - paints black only

I have reset my tools individually and each tool. Still the same - brush tool paints black only .

There's an odd little behaviour that can confuse, or down right drive you mad, where Alt (Opt) clicking the image with the Brush tool selected changes the 'Background' colour and not the Foreground colour. To fix this open the Color Panel, and click on the Foreground colour, which will then become the 'active' colour and respond to Alt clicking a colour in the image.
The difference is subtle.
Foreground colour active
Background colour active
It will also depend on how you have your UI set. With a dark UI I can see a thin white border around the active colour. That changes to a black border with a lighter UI. I found this one hard to track down when I first ran into it, so if new to you, commit it to memory.

'when I try to use any of the tools on a photo, such as cut out a section, the tools will not execute.

What has changed my P'E? I have used it for many years and now, all of a sudden, it will not respond and the tools while they show on the photo will to execute.

Selection tool will not select paths?

I am new to illustrator. I created a few closed paths that I filled in with the gradient tool. Then, I made another new closed path. However, when I try to select the first path I made with the selection tool nothing happens. If I hover over the path, green type saying "path" or "anchor" will appear but I cannot click it and it does not show the actual lines of the path. However, If I hover over the last object I created, I can see that path fine, and I can select it. That is the only one. I made sure that the layer is not locked and that I am working on the right layer. It was working fine earlier, but now I have no clue what happened.

There rare many reason this could be happening your item could be
locked or on a locked layer
inside a clipping or transparency mask
has a large object on top, (happens to me often when I have a white plate)
Good methods to troubleshoto this
select all then hide - to test if item is selectable or locked
hide the item on top until you dig down to why you want, make the change, then show all
command click to get past items on top, each click takes you down a layer
check your preferences that object select by path only is off, when that is on you need to be more precise with your clicks as will not select by fill only path
I recommend using the 2nd bullet technique of hiding, this will help you learn a lot about Illustrator
