Scene Repair Tool is Missing

I am new to Elements. One of the main reasons I purchased this software was for its 'scene repair tool' which, according to the literature I have read, should be located under the healing brush tool drop menu. A 'Dummies' book that I purchased actually shows a picture of this drop down menu with three options, but my software appears to only have two; 'spot healing brush' and 'healing brush'. Can anyone tell me where I can find this option, and if not, what options do I have to remove unwanted images from my pictures?
Thanks in advance!

  • License repair tool for PSE 8 won't work-missing python 25 .dll

    PSE 8 license repair tool won't work... missing python 25 .dll

    Does the ext directory have the php_oci8.dll? In the original steps the PHP dir is renamed. In the given php.in the extension_dir looks like it has been updated correctly. Since PHP distributes php_oci8.dll by default I reckon there would be a very good chance that the problem was somewhere else. Since this is an old thread I don't think we'll get much value from speculation.

  • Does the Clone repair tool have an Aligned option like PhotoShop?

    PhotoShop's clone stamp has an option that is called "Aligned" under CS3 (not sure of its name in prior versions.) When clicked, there is a fixed spatial relationship between the source and destination pixels, even if you complete one clone operation, move the cursor, and click again for another one. SO for instance you can fix numerous places in a photo by always grabbing pixels "down and to the right a bit", only needing to reset your source pixels when you get to an area of the picture where that relationship won't work well.
    When it is not clicked, then the clone stamp always goes back to the same spot you option-clicked on originally. It's like each clone stamp operation is "dipping into the well of good pixels" where you told it to, until you reset the source area again.
    Both of these modes are useful at different times. As near as I can tell, Aperture clone option on the repair tool only works like the second one, but I sure miss having the Aligned option too. Is there some way to get that effect in Aperture that I'm just not seeing?
    Thanks,
    Duncan

    There is no such feature in InDesign.
    You can file a feature request here so the product managers can see it:

  • Poor Lightroom 5.7 Performance when using part repair tool

    Hi Lightroom pros,
    I'm using Lightroom 5.7 for about half a year and are very happy with it. Unless I'm working on photos where I have to use the part repairt tool to much.
    I'm specialized in car photograpy and often have to remove dust from the cars paint work and chrome. When I have to work on hughe areas Lightroom becomes slower and slower. I read that the repair tool costs a lot of performance but I'm wondering if I could optimize something or if there is a workaround for that? Because right now its not usable doing one click and waiting 2 minutes...
    I'm using the newest Lightroom 64-bit version on a Windows 8.1 Enterprise 64-bit Laptop with an internal SSD drive. LR is installed on that drive and the Catalogue also is stored there. I have 70 GB of free space on that drive, my catalogue is around 5 GB, my Camera Raw Cache Size is 20 GB.
    The machine has 16 GB of RAM and an Intel Core i7 3 GHz Quadcore processor. My RAW files are stored on an external USB 3.0 Drive (not SSD).
    When working on that kind of picutres I usually close as much programms as possible, so that most of the time LR is the only working desktop programm. What seems strange to me is, that even if I'm waiting for minutes for LR to answer, that my processor and RAM are only using about 40% of it's power. The rest seems not to be used by LR?!
    I would be really thankful for tipps or ideas how to improve that issue because right now I'm really wasting a lot of time.
    Kind regards
    Torsten

    I guess this depends on what you are doing, what type of original files you are using, and your own perception of quality. I would believe that in most cases, if you do all the editing in LR except for the spot removal, get the photo to appear the way you want (except for the spot removal), and then lastly move it to PSE and remove the spots, that there isn't really any noticeable loss of quality.
    I must admit I'm not a pro concerning color managment. But I already downloaded the PSE testversion and realized that it is not capable to deal with 16-bit color depth. Wouldn't that be noticeable after the finale spot removal step?
    So, you should tell Adobe this, not me. This is a forum for users (like me) to help other users (like you).
    I know. I just wanted to emphasize why switching to PS wouldn't be the perfect solution for me (even if I'm considering it).
    Thanks so far!

    Running Office 2007 Windows 7 64bit received this error but program wont open for me to follow its suggestion.   "Can not open errors have been detected close and then use the inbox repair tool scanpst.exe"Warrior57

    Hi,
    If you open your Outlook and receive this message, you may need to use the Inbox Repair Tool to repair your PST file. Follow these steps:
    On the Start menu, click Run.
    In the Open box, type
    drive:\Program Files\Common Files\System\Mapi\LocaleID\scanpst.exe
    where LocaleID is the locale identifier (LCID) for your installation of Microsoft Office. For example, the LCID for English (United States) is 1033. For a list of LCIDs, see Microsoft Office Help.
    Click OK.
    In the Enter the name of the file you want to scan box, type the path and file name given in the error message above.
     Note   You may not be able to use the

    To change the options for logging errors during the scan, click Options. If you choose
    Replace log or Append to log, the log file is saved to the same directory as the .pst file.
    Click Start.
    When the file scan is completed, select the Make a backup of scanned file before repairing check box.

    If the file is successfully repaired, you will see a Repair complete message. If the Inbox Repair Tool was unable to repair the file, you will need to use a backup of your file.
    Hope that helps.

  • Is there any trustworthy Exchange BKF repair tool?

    I need to export some critical data (edb and log files) from the exchange bkf file but due to some networking problem, backup process got interrupted which made bkf file inaccessible. After searching a lot about this over Internet, I found that majority
    of the people have advised to use any utility for that.
    Can anyone suggest any efficient utility to export data from damaged exchange bkf file?

    Hi Tuckor,
    You can try any of the following Exchange BKF Repair tools:
    http://www.stellarinfo.com/email-repair/exchange-bkf-repair.php
    http://www.taskmanagerfix.com/exchange-bkf-to-pst.html
    http://www.bkfrepairtool.org/exchange-bkf-recovery.html
    http://www.exchangebkfrepair.com/
    PS: I have not used any of the above tools, while searching on Google, I found some of them. But I have used some other products of
    Task Manager Fix and Stellar Phoenix and they did exactly what I needed. So, I think you can depend upon their other products as well but I would advise you to test  free version of every product first
    to check if the particular tool is able to repair your corrupt Exchange BKF file or not. Chhose sensibly.

  • Need an Outlook PST repair tool for MS Outlook 2010

    My Outlook mailbox messages are corrupted. Someone has suggested to me use advanced PST repair tool.
    I have no idea about this one utility. Can anyone suggest useful reference ?
    Regards:
    christa

    Hi Christa,
    In case of severe corruption, Scanpst.exe don't work, that's why Scanpst.exe is getting terminated during
    mid stage of repair process. So, the only way you are left with is to try any third party Outlook PST Repair tool. Though I have never used any PST Repair tool personally but while searching on Google I have found the following tools:
    http://www.stellarphoenixrecovery.com/software-for-pst.php
    http://www.dd-pst-repair.com/
    http://www.cimaware.com/main/products/outlookfix.php
    I would suggest you to try the demo of these tools first before purchasing the full version.

  • Receiving a "FIXMAPI 1.0 MAPI Repair Tool has stopped working" error

    One of our users has Windows 7 Installed. When she emails out attachments, she right clicks it and chooses to "Sent To" and then selects "Mail Recipient".
    It opens and creates a new email fine. Upon pressing SEND it gives a "FIXMAPI 1.0 MAPI Repair Tool has stopped working" It does successfully email. 
    I attached a screenshot.

    Hi,
    Have you tried to repair the Office for the user?
    If that won't work, open the Explorer, and navigate to
    %APPDATA%\Microsoft\Windows\SendTo
    Delete the file named Mail recipient. (Make a backup before you doing that, or you can just move it to the other folders.)
    And then open folder
    C:\Windows
    Find the file named Win.ini, open it with Notepad, find the section that begins with [Mail], and then add the following lines. Some lines may already exist, but you need all of them for this feature.
    [Mail]
    MAPI=1
    CMC=1
    CMCDLLNAME=mapi.dll
    CMCDLLNAME32=mapi32.dll
    MAPIX=1
    MAPIXVER=1.0.0.1
    OLEMessaging=1
    Save it and quit Notepad, restart the Computer.
    See if we can get rid of it.

  • Repair Tool Performance Problem when Zoom on Image

    Aperture Friends,
    I experience a huge performance hit when editing images with the Repair/Clone tool only when "zoomed" into an image. The curious part is that the repair while "zoomed in" function works fine for about 3 images, then from the 4th image on, the software grinds to almost a complete stop for several seconds after selection a source point and trying to use the repair. The mouse cursor even changes to a spinning rainbow DVD look during this time.
    These are 15-20MB Raw files from a Canon 5d and we are using the most recent version of AP on a nearly brand new iMac 27", of course with Snow L, and all patches applied. The library is less than 20GB and we are not using Reference files as of yet.
    I realize that these may be large files, but it is curios that it works with blazing speed to start with, then degrades.
    Is this a common problem, or an identified issue? Might you more experienced folks know a resoulution?

    hi!
    i'm experiencing a similar problem on my imac i5 with the difference it is slow all the time. even after a reboot it's quite impossible to use the clone/repair tool. my library is about 40GB with referenced files (all on external HD fw800). i work with a 5D Mk II (which is still not supported for tethered shooting, by the way!).
    (sorry if i nicked your thread )
    best regards,
    günther

  • My Pointer/Position Tool is Missing and I need it BACK!

    I'm working in CS4 on a MacBook Pro (OS 10.6.8).  I've had some wanky things happen recently, culminating in pointer tool going missing, and followed online instructions to trash my preferences and saved data (this helped wonderfully well the first time this happened, but despite repeated tries now, does NOTHING).  I also tried uninstalling and reinstalling inDesign TWICE.  I actually waited for 1 hour on the phone today to talk to a technical advisor, who told me that CS4 is no longer supported and I'd need to look for my answer in this forum.
    Any ideas?  I'm desperate for my pointer/position tool!  The only way I can make use of it now is to quit inDesign.  When I re-open it, the cursor defaults to the pointer tool, but once I need to use another tool from the tool bar, there is no way to get BACK to the pointer tool to move objects around my document.
    I would be EVER SO GRATEFUL for helpful advice!!!
    Thank you!
    Megan

    This is a real long shot, but try resetting the workspace.
    I think, though that you are going to need to uninstall (and check the box to delete the prefs), then run the cleaner tool (CS Cleaner Tool for installation problems | CCM, CS6, CS5.5, CS5, CS4, CS3) and reinstall again.

    checking out the shape tool, and just noticed that the rectangle and rounded shape tool displays differently in settings at the top bar. they appear to be "shape" objects. but when clicking on the elipse tool in that group, it's considered to be a "path" tool? does this have anything to do with this issue because with the elipse, i can create one and the handles are back on the objects, along with the other shapes in there such as the star.
    in order to get the resize handles back onto the rectangular shapes, you have to convert them to path? why are these different?
