Simple halftone patterns in Photoshop CS5 - I've done it before but cannot find it again

Hi all,
I'm using Photoshop CS5 on Mac OS X. Last year I created an artwork including colour half tones, but also some other simple halftone filter that I applied to layers of solid colour (see attached image - you may need to view it at 100% to see what I mean)
It's a simple half tone pattern of white vs 1xcolour using either circles or squares. I remember that this was applied simply, not any special process as I didn't go out of my way to create this effect I just stumbled upon it. I can't for the life of me remember how to do it again. Has anyone else come across this? If anyone can point out how it's done that would be much appreciated.
Cheers,
Dylan

The Filter>Sketch>Halftone Pattern seems consistent in getting the square pattern, but very inconsistent in getting circles, as you mentioned.
You could make your own pattern or see if one of these pre-made patterns work.

I have Photoshop CS5, and use windows XP. I cannot open Bridge from photoshop, whichI have done for years. When I am in Photoshop,when it opens, I always click on the bridge icon at the bottom of the screen, and it puts me into bridge. This is not happen

I have Photoshop CS5, and use windows XP. I cannot open bridge from photoshop, which I have done for years. When I am in Photoshop, when it opens, I always click on the bridge icon at the bottom of the screen and it puts me into bridge. This is not happening, the small wheel at the bottom of the screen just keeps spinning. Its like its stuck or caught in a loop. I can't get into bridge. I tried shutting down and starting up again but the problem remains. Looking for help. Dan

Thanks for your response, I was able to open bridge from File-Browse in Bridge. This worked, but was not able to go back to the way I always opened Bridge. At least I could get to Bridge and go into Camera Raw. I never tried to open Bridge from the Start menu. The odd thing about this is, it has happened before, and to get it "unstuck" and working again, I would shut down and restart again in a few minutes, and things would go back to normal. This time it did not go back to normal after several attempts. I shut down for about 3-4 hours, restarted, and it seems to be back to normal again. I am not sure if it's a problem that is getting worse each time it happens. And yes I am using Mini Bridge in photoshop CS5. Thank you for your help. Dan

Photoshop CS5(64Bit): "You don't have permission to save to this location. Contact the administrator to obtain permission." I am the administrator and I give myself permission. What can I do to save the file?

Photoshop CS5(64Bit): "You don't have permission to save to this location. Contact the administrator to obtain permission." I am the administrator and give myself permission. What can I do to save the file? This is the user's PC, licensed PS CS5 software and Win 7 OS.

Temporarily save to another folder, until you figure it out.
Just because you are the owner and are the sole administrator, does not always guarantee that you have permission. There are several folders that you can not access no matter how hard you try. As for folders in your document folder, it is more likely a basic permission setting that took on permissions of a copied file. Some folders and files are set to a child/parent default setting, meaning the child folder/file (the one you are accessing) has the identical settings of its parent and when the parent changes, so does the child.
You can alter the parent or the child folder/file.
Right click on the folder/file select properties.
Click on the security tab.
Click on each of the group names and see what permissions are set.
You can then edit a group if necessary.
If it will not allow it, you may need to use the advanced button to create a new copy of the group which should happen when you alter its settings (In other words, you don't have to physically create the copy, it does it for you when you OK the changes)
The administrator should have full access to the folder in the documents folder, if you are listed as an associate of the administrator group your name should also be listed there with full access. The System should also have full access.
All other groups should have reading access only if they exist.

I havev installed a new Hard Drive on my laptop but cannot find my Photoshop Elements product box with the serial number to install Elements 10 or Elememts Premier 10. How can I find out the serial / installation codes for these?

I havev installed a new Hard Drive on my laptop but cannot find my Photoshop Elements product box with the serial number to install Elements 10 or Elememts Premier 10. How can I find out the serial / installation codes for these? I saw a reply however, it was not my name and assumed it was for someone else. Now timed out. Can UI still have help on this matter please?

If you registered PSE before, go to the main page of adobe.com, sign in and go to your account and you should find the serial number there in your purchases.

Hello I have lost my serial number for adobe photoshop elements. Bought from John Lewis last month. I did have it installed but had to uninstall but cannot find the any of the packaging etc plus did not register. What is the best way of getting it install

Hello I have lost my serial number for adobe photoshop elements 13. Bought from John Lewis last month. I did have it installed but had to uninstall but cannot find the any of the packaging etc plus did not register. What is the best way of getting it installed again/replacement? Thanks

Do you have the receipt? If you have proof of ownership, you _may_ be able to persuade Customer Support to help you out. I imagine you would need to scan and email that proof if it works at all.

I bought PhotoShop 12.0 for Windows 8. I cannot find the Curves function in the program. Is Curves excluded from this version? If so, how can I upgrade to get Curves? Thank you!

Thank you, Michel, for your helpful answer. I have downloaded SmartCurve and saved the files in C:\program files\adobe\Photoshop elements\plug-ins. I re-started PhotoShop. Do I access SmartCurve to adjust curves from within PhotoShop?
You can acces it from the menu 'Filters', there is a line called 'Easy.Filter', click it and it shows 'Smartcurve'.
Separately, can I upgrade my PhotoShop Elements to Photoshop without signing up to the CC 'rental' system of monthly payments? Sincere thanks, Ted
I know that you don't need the CC 'rental' subscription to have Photoshop, but as far as I know, there is no upgrade path from Elements except periodical special offers.

How come the Adobe Wiki says Photoshop CS5 inclues Acrobat Pro 9.3 but mine doesn't include it?

I was reviewing what is supposed to be included with Photoshop CS5 and it says it includes Acrobat Pro 9.3 but mine only contains Photoshop. Mine is an upgrade from CS3 but should that matter? The CS5 matrix shows CS5 contains 9.3 but mine doesnt?

CS really has only one meaning. Creative Suite. Unfortunately, it's the name of not two but many, many things, but all for the same reason.
Creative Suite is a suite, which is easy enough. CS5 is the fifth major version of Creative Suite.
Where it can get confusing is that the apps in the suite are also known by the suite name
Photoshop CS5, Illustrator CS5, InDesign CS5 for instance. And you can buy them separately.
So if you buy Creative Suite 5 you get all three and more (depending on the suite you buy). But if you buy, say, Illustrator CS5 that's just Illustrator.
Where it gets really confusing is that the Acrobat team never joined the club. So while some Creative Suites include some Acrobats the versions never match up. You have to use a reliable source. You may not be aware that ANYONE CAN EDIT Wikipedia, so while it is interesting, and often accurate, you can never use it to settle an argument...

I download Photoshop CS5 and It don't have the 3d plugin...

Hi I have Photoshop CS5 and it doesnt have the 3d plugin. If it do, I just can't find it. I need help because I need to make a decent logo for my company. Do anybody know how to get the 3d plugin or find it?

Did you download Photoshop as a trial from Adobe's site? If so, you should see the 3D features, as the trial provides Extended features.
If you downloaded it from somewhere else, and you don't own a license, delete it immediately - it's not a legal copy.

Update for photoshop cs5 not working, deletes files before installl happens

My computer crashed, so I rebuilt it. I installed photoshop CS5 with no errors. I go to update it and it downloads without any problems. Then when it goes to install it errors out. I found that just as one part of the update is 100% downloaded, it is deleted. And this happens for each and every part of the update, so when it goes to install the updates, there is no files to do that with.

I went to that web site and downloaded those files. And what happens? Most of the files extract without any problem, but the one that errror out on every single one I downloaded was the AdobepatchInstaller.exe. I have 2 computer and tried it on both computers and both said the same thing. When it does extract it, it says it is corrept. So now how is that my computers fault????

Create a Pattern in Photoshop CS5

Hi
I can't create a Pattern of a selection area. When I try to create the Pattern at Edit->Define Pattern, this option isn't available.
I will tell you the steps I'm taking:
->Create a new doc and use Paint Bucket Tool to paint it with Black (this is the background).
->Then I create a new layer and with the rectangular marquee tool I do a square.
->Keeping the selection I press cmd+backspace and the square becomes white.
->Keeping the selection I do a Stroke with 2px, color black and option Inside.
->Then I go to Edit to define a pattern of that square, however the Define Pattern option is gray, so I can't use it.
Does someone knows why this is happening?
Thanks

I can't offer any help because the steps you are providing should make it possible to define a pattern.
If it is a glitch you could try to make Photoshop behave by resetting the Preferences file:
In Photoshop 6 and up, hold down Ctrl+Alt+Shift (Windows) or Command+Option+Shift (Mac) immediately after (or while) launching Photoshop. A prompt will ask if you want to delete the preferences file. Click Yes.

Photoshop CS5 installs on Win 8.1, but won't update. the error says, ""This serial number is not for a qualifying product..." when installing an upgrade or upsell". PS CS5 12.0 is too downlevel to work on canon raw

I have contacted adobe CusServ 5 times. Each time I get a different answer. One even went so far as giving me a new, full product serial number which still would not allow updates to be applied. Their only solution is to pay for the "cloud". I don't need the "cloud". My CS5 does everything I need and has worked great up until my computer died. It was running win7 ultimate. My new computer runs win 8.1. Not the pro version. Should I go to Corel, maybe they are more helpful? Help please!
I have looked at the other similar issues here and the answers are all similar. 1)Contact CS agent. Useless, they say come here to the forum. 2)apply SN from previous product. Did that and loaded CS4 also. No help. 3)Get a new serial number. got a new SN for a full product from one of the CS agents. Same problem.
I have deactivated, activated. I have uninstalled and re-installed several times. The CS agents I have spoken to were useless, the only way I could get them to try anything was to suggest that the problem was beyond their competency. I refuse to pay $30 a month for the functionality I have all ready purchased. Adobe is degenerating. I hope more people reject the "cloud" concept.

Hi Guys,
Ive got the same problems as you, Win XP SP2 on RAID 1 hard disk set on an AMD raid controller, but I have no driver to roll-back to.
Ive installed Photoshop CS3 and also Acrobat Standard 8 (which used to run fine on an old system), but all i get now is the blank window with the menu and title bar and thats all.
Can some one help? (will this licensing patch resolve the issue - and where can i get it from?)
Thanks

I no longer have my Adobe Photoshop CS5 Student and Teacher Edition CD, but have my product key and SN. How can I locate a link to download this software?

That's basically the info I need. I have the product information, just not the product to download and install. Help?

Meldavis99 you can download the retail installation files at Download CS5 products. The installation files should accept your Student and Teacher serial number.
