PS CS4 Can't see the filters previews.

I am using Adobe Photoshop CS4 Extended, I already updated to Ver. 11.0.1
My problem is that when I open the filters, like "Unsharp Mask" the window that shows the filter preview
doesn't show anything, it remains blank. This is happening with all the filters that have previews. My OS
is Windows XP SP3.
How can I fix this problem?.

might be connected to OpenGL, try disabling OpenGL Drawing from Edit->Preferences->Performance and/or update your video card drivers

  • FCP X 10.0.8 I can´t see the effect preview in the viewer...

    Hi:
    I update Final Cut Pro X today and now I can´t see the preview of the effect in the viewer when I use the skimmer in the effects thumbnails in the Effects tab.
    You konw... if you move the skimmer over the effect thumnail you can see the effect apply or if you hold "alt" key and move the cursor you can change the "amount" of effect to see.
    I check to reinstall the app, erase the renders...

    Thanks Russ.
    I am going your advice and install the Preference Manager (Great stuff from Digital Rebellion) and I deleted the "preferences plist".
    I go to open FCPX again and this issue whit the thumbnails in the viewer is remained.
    This is madness.
    I am going to check my other Mac and install the update to check if the problem is in FCP X or my Mac Pro.
    Thankas again Russ
    All effects show this issues. White frames, pink frames... I can´t see the preview in the viewer or the thumbnail.
    This computer is a Mac Pro 8 Core, 32G Ram, Nvidia GTX 285 GTX Mac Version...
    Two days ago I finish a work with 10.0.7 FCP X version and all is ok, I haven´t this issue.

  • How to see the print preview of a Purchase Order

    Hi,
    Can we see the print preview of the PO.
    I made changes to the sapscript associated with it.But I don't know how to test it.
    Thanks in advance.
    Venkat

    Hi Venkat
    In the tcode ME22N, give the PO no.
    In the menu ... Go To -
    > Messages
    Define a entry for print o/p:
    Enter the o/p type
    Medium should be "1 Print Output"
    Hit enter.
    Click on Communication Method:
    in Format Enter the Test Sap Script name that you have changed.
    Save & come back..
    Then go to the initial screen & click on print preview, you should see the display.
    Thanks

  • I am not seeing the URL preview you get when you hover over a link. Why?

    Until today, when I hovered my cursor over a link, a preview of the link's URL would appear on the lower left of my screen, above the Start button (I use Windows Vista). Currently when I hover over a link, no preview appears, so I don't know the web address of where I'm going when I click on the link. I thought that maybe this was due to updating to Firefox 19.0, but my friends who have also updated say that they can still see the URL preview. Did I somehow turn off the URL preview by accident? If so, how can I turn it back on? If not, why is it gone?

    Do you see toolbars like the Add-ons bar (Ctrl+/) or the Find bar (Ctrl+F)?
    Start Firefox in <u>[[Safe Mode|Safe Mode]]</u> to check if one of the extensions (Firefox/Tools > Add-ons > Extensions) or if hardware acceleration is causing the problem (switch to the DEFAULT theme: Firefox/Tools > Add-ons > Appearance).
    *Do NOT click the Reset button on the Safe mode start window or otherwise make changes.

  • In CC214 PS Why has adobe removed the "print Size Button"  And why have they made the Brush preview window so small you can't see the effects to accurately adjust them?

    In CC214 PS Why has adobe removed the "print Size Button"  And why have they made the Brush preview window so small you can't see the effects to accurately adjust them?
    These two things need to be remedied in their upgrades because It's become such a bother I've had to revert to older versions of PS.

    Yea, and it's a pain to get to.  What was the rational for removing the print size button?   With the magnifying glass tool selected in older versions of Photoshop you would get a button that says "print size" right next to Actual pixels, Fit Screen, Fill Screen. Now I have to go out of my way and dig for it if I want to see the print size.  Of all the buttons you could have taken away, why not fill screen?  I never use that.
    Besides the point I just downloaded the Oct Upgrade for PS and surprise! Nothing has changed and these are two big black eyes on newer versions of Photoshop.   The Brush preview window is  unchanged in CC but in CC2014 it's basically worthless.  If you apply a texture to a brush you can't properly see the scale of the texture, the spacing, scatter, etc...

  • I can't see the preview of my source on Flash media live encoder ... I'm using CamTwist on mac

    I can't see the preview of my source on Flash media live encoder ... I'm using CamTwist on mac

    Carolyn,
    I think your TV might be a rear projection model, correct? Those types of TVs inherently have overscan built into them as part of their optical design. The TV should have some picture SIZE settings that affect how much overscan is present, and some settings may even get rid of it altogether with the result there might be a small black border instead.
    Don't worry about changing TV settings. Settings like this are tied to a specific input. So if you make these types of changes while the TV is passing the mini's video through to the screen, those changes will only apply to the mini. When you switch to other inputs, like a cable box, etc., the old settings should still be intact and unchanged.

  • My file names have disappeared in grid view. Thery have been replaced with a dark bar along the bottom of the previews. If I toggle using the command u it hide the bar but I still can't see the file name. In list view all the file names are OK.

    My file names have disappeared in grid view. Thery have been replaced with a dark bar along the bottom of the previews. If I toggle using the command u it hide the bar but I still can't see the file name. In list view all the file names are OK.

    The dark bar is caused by the option "Show metadata below image".
    Check the settings for the metadata overlays in Grid view (basic and expanded) by clicking the little "badge" icon below the Browser and selecting "Edit". Is the filename still enabled in the list? And in a high enough position to have precedence for other metadata tags, if the space does not suffice to show all selected tags?

  • My photos will not keep the filter on when I enlarge them. When I show the thumbnails of them in the photos app, I can see the filters, but I can't when I enlarge them. (I have iOS 7). How can I fix this?

    When I open the Photos app, and I see all the thumbnails of the photos I have taken, I see the filters on the photos that should have filters. For some reason, when I enlarge a photo with a filter to full screen, the filter is removed. But when I go back to the thumbnails, the filter is restored. How can I fix this?

    I suggest either learning to use the iPhone or going back to a $15 phone if these are the most important features of a phone to you. Start here: http://www.apple.com/support/iphone/

  • I use to see the icon preview with leopard snow, now that i installed Lion i can't see them, Why is this?

    That wasn't a change in Firefox. It sounds like something is broken in your Firefox installation, or you are misunderstanding the different between the Bookmarks Toolbar and the other Toolbars.
    In the Bookmarks Toolbar the text appears next to the website icon, not below the icon as with the other two Toolbars, and it's not switchable between text and no text as with the other Toolbars. With both the bookmark icon and the Bookmark name missing, something is broken in your installation. You need to do a little troubleshooting.
    Do you have that problem when running in the Firefox SafeMode? <br />
    [http://support.mozilla.com/en-US/kb/Safe+Mode] <br />
    ''Don't select anything right now, just use "Continue in SafeMode."''
    If not, see this: <br />
    [http://support.mozilla.com/en-US/kb/troubleshooting+extensions+and+themes]
    If your problem isn't related to an extension, your bookmarks data base file (places.sqlite) is probably corrupt. <br />
    http://kb.mozillazine.org/Locked_or_damaged_places.sqlite <br />
    Be aware that if you delete the "places.sqlite" and similar files, your bookmark website icons won't automatically appear (the JSON backups don't have that icon data) when you restart Firefox and the places.sqlite is rebuilt using the backup data file, but the icons should be saved the first time each bookmark is used for the first time.

  • How  can I see the previews of my D610 in bridge cs5 and how can I open them in my CC photoshop?

    How  can I see the previews of my D610 in bridge cs5 and how can I open them in my CC photoshop?

    Nah. Raw support is version specific and that extends to Bridge as well. Older versions simply won't handle new cameras. If this is important to you, you will have to use Bridge CC.

  • I can't see the iPad option in the preview for the overlays or the folio builder.

    I can't see the iPad option in the preview for the folio overlays or the folio buider.
    I have the content viewer on my iPad and I am logged into it.  This was working before.  Getting a new version of the app does work.
    Please help.

    Hi Bob,
    I think there's still something amiss here.
    I have the v25 Folio Producer Tools for CS5.5 and the v25 Folio Builder panel. (I'm on 10.6.8 for reference.)
    I also have the latest v25 CV from the App Store, and with my iPad Mini plugged in, and the Content Viewer open, the option to side-load still isn't showing.
    I thought it might be because I also had a v24 viewer (custom built) installed, but that's not the case. I uninstalled both of them and just downloaded the v25 viewer from the App Store. The result was the same.

  • Can not see the details of the task approved in UWL of ESS

    Leave approver can not see the detail of the task approved such as the start and end date of the leave, number of days used, leave quota details of the applicant when he approved it.
    Please give your advises!
    Regards,

    Hi!
    Maybe these attributes are not being shown due to the fact that they might have been specified in the "List of Display Attribute to exclude from Preview/Detail area" attribute of the UWL iview currently being used.
    As you can see in the Help page:
    http://help.sap.com/saphelp_nw70/helpdata/de/0a/ad68c125ae496f8c04a25090bd2e3c/content.htm
    It states the following about this attribute:
    "Enter the names of the attributes which you want to hide from the display in the preview area. These names should be comma separated."
    Maybe for the UWL iview currently being used it has been specified some values for this attribute, and so some information for the items such as the start and end date of the leave (along with the others you have mentioned) are not getting displayed in the preview area.
    Hope this helps!
    Best regards,

    Dear Sreeni,
    Just go to J1IIN, click on "Exc.inv for delivery -- Display" where you input delivery reference and execute. If you have generated excise invoice, you can see the corresponding excise invoice for that delivery / billing document.

  • How can I see the alpha channel in the channels palette?

    Hello, mi format plugin loads a rgba image. I see it with transparency, that's ok, but when I go to the channels tab I only see 4 items (RGB, Red, Green and Blue).
    How can I see the alpha channel of my file in the channel tab?
    Thanks!

    OK, something must be wrong... but I don't find it!
    That's my whole code (resumed). I ommit some code (saving file code (not used) or main function, where I only call te "DoSomething" functions. You can see that I use layers. The DoReadContinue function is only used to show the preview.
    In the DoReadStart function I set the parameters for the layers (and the preview), and I fill the "data" and "layerName" params in the DoReadLayerContinue function. I hope you can understand the code!

    And that's the image that I obtain loading a 8 layer image:
    The layers have transparency (when I set "transparencyPlane" to  -1, or 0, or 1, or 2, or 3, or 4....., I got the same result!). The blending mode is still "normal". I had set it to "linear dodge" The "isVisible" param works OK.
    Alpha 1 is still black.
    Is possible that I need to set something in the .r file? I had to add "FormatLayerSupport { doesSupportFormatLayers }," to manage layers, for instance.

Maybe you are looking for
