Smart object suddenly NOTHING happens

SUDDENLY nothing happens with smart object.  The history adds a state,
"edit contents", but ACR window never opens and now I'm screwed cuz this
document has 13 SO's waiting for work. This has happened plenty in the past.
PS CC 
ACR 8.1...
OSX.8.3

Well, trash (re-set) your preferences right away.    That's always step number 1, even before posting.
On the Mac, Repair Permissions with Apple's Disk Utility is also a useful first step.
To re-create the preferences files for Photoshop, start the application while holding down Ctrl+Alt+Shift (Windows) or Command+Option+Shift (Mac OS). Then, click Yes to the message, "Delete the Adobe Photoshop Settings file?"
Important: Apple made the user library folder hidden by default with the release of Mac OS X 10.7. If  you require access to files in the hidden library folder to perform Adobe-related troubleshooting, see How to access hidden user library files.

  • Suddenly, nothing happens. Firefox opens, but no subject opens.

    If I put a subject in the space for it, nothing happens. This has never happened before. What could possibly have happened to cause this, and how do I restore normal functioning?

    Now for your problem, I would try, if updating Firefox doesn't work, running Firefox in [[Safe Mode]]. It is possible that you have an extension which is interfering with Firefox's normal operation.

  • Opening DNG as a Smart Object into Photoshop CS5?

    I am using a Windows 7 64 bit platform and CS5 64 bit.  I have the most recent Camera Raw plug in for my Nikon D3100 camera.  In Bridge you are supposed to be able to open a dng file in Camera Raw, make your corrections and then by holding the Shift key it should change the open file button to open it as a Smart Object.  When I do that nothing opens in in Photoshop.
    Any suggestions?

    Can you tell me how to access the workflow settings?
    Pretty simple (and the settings are sticky), open a raw image and in the center where the processing info is shown (lower center link) which acts both as an info readout AND a button to change the Workflow Options settings, click on this link...it'll give you a dlog to change the Workflow Settings.
    Alter the settings and click Done (cancel doesn't work since it works as a Cancel).
    Thereafter, unless you make changes, the Workflow Options should be sticky.
    Thank you Jeff for the information.
    Please let me know if you think the worflow settings are wrong:  Here is how the workflow is currently set:  Space: Adobe RGB 1998; Depth: 16bits/channel;  Size 34072 x 4608 (14.2 MP); Resolution: 260 p/in.; Sharpen: None;  Amount: none;  The bix is checked to open in Photoshop as a Smart Object.
    Now here is the thing.  If I am in Bridge and double click on a dng file or right click on a selection of files and choose Open in Photoshop, it opens a Camera Raw window for the file/s and then if I click on the open objects button, it does open them in Photoshop as smart objects.  The problem is that if I select, from the Bridge pop=up menu to open the selected file/s in Camera Raw, it is then that they do not get sent to Photoshop as smart objects.  Nothing happens, they just don't open in Photoshop.
    I am also having a very hard time sending dng files from Lightroom into Photoshop.  So clearly there is something not "connected" properly.  Or maybe it is not clearly, but I am supposing that there might be some general issue.  Any thoughts would be greatly appreciated.

  • Updated Illustrator smart object in Photoshop views blurry

    Hi all,
    This is probably an insultingly simple query but:
    I've created a map in Illustrator, opened this as a smart object in Photoshop and dragged it in as layer in a PSD.
    When needing to make changes to the map, I've double clicked the smart object icon on the layer list which has opened the Illustator EPS of the map in Illustrator. Made changes, saved and closed - all is going according to plan up until this point.
    When I return to my PSD the smart object has updated alright but it looks all pixilated and blurry. The file hasn't been moved since I originally placed the smart object and nothing I do seems to give me a crisp updated smart object.
    My only option, which is a pain, is to open the original illustrator EPS - make changes - save and start again in Photoshop.
    There must be something I'm doing wrong.
    Any help appreciated!

    Thanks for your help, but still no joy I'm afraid.
    Here are the screenshots doing it the 'save as' way:

  • Smart objects: nothing new - what a shame!

    I am extremely disappointed to see that smart objects haven't progressed one whit since CS5.  Still filters that don't work with them, still only one mask, still no auto-align/auto-blend on smart objects, still no HDR on smart objects ... list goes on and on and nothing has been added. Very sad.

    So you got a dead remote or a dead battery. Call AppleCare and it will be taken care of. What's the big deal? These things happen from time to time.

  • I have Adobe Photoshop Album 1.0 & suddenly cannot send photos thru e-mail.  It looks like it's working ok; but when I hit Send nothing happens and the program stops responding.  Any suggestions?

    I have starter 3.0 and cannot share pictures via outlook express. Evidently that version is discontinued and my outlook express does not support the MAPI that is required. I think the only solution is to upgrade to photoshop
    elements or to send photos as attachment to your e-mail.  I have the same problem using Zoom Browser EX sending photos via internet. I spent a whole day trying to resove this issue and have exhausted all options. Just like "Instant share" in HP image Zone that was replace by photoshop album starter 3.0 and now it is out dated.

    As a test launch iPhoto with the Option key held down and create a new, test library.  Import some photos and test to see if the same problem persists. Does it?
    If it does then your current library has been damaged and should be repaired: apply the two fixes below in order as needed:
    Fix #1
    Launch iPhoto with the Command+Option keys held down and rebuild the library.
    Since only one option can be run at a time start
    with Option #4 and then #1 as needed.
    Fix #2
    Using iPhoto Library Manager  to Rebuild Your iPhoto Library
    1 - download iPhoto Library Manager and launch.
    2 - click on the Add Library button, navigate to your Home/Pictures folder and select your iPhoto Library folder.
    3 - Now that the library is listed in the left hand pane of iPLM, click on your library and go to the File ➙ Rebuild Library menu option.
    4 - In the next  window name the new library and select the location you want it to be placed.
    5 - Click on the Create button.
    Note: This creates a new library based on the LIbraryData.xml file in the library and will recover Events, Albums, keywords, titles and comments.  However, books, calendars, cards and slideshows will be lost. The original library will be left untouched for further attempts at fixing the problem or in case the rebuilt library is not satisfactory.

    Try resetting your phone, hold the home and sleep/wake button down until the apple symbol comes up, then release. If that doesnt work, you may have damaged your phone and need to take it to an apple genius bar.

After a reinstallation I got to choose between opening picture browser or photoshop elements and when trying to open elements nothing happens. Now I have reinstalled windows but still with the same result. I was using the program for several months without problem until yesterday when it suddenly stopped working. Any suggestions on what to do?

    Hi Larry,
    When I open the Bonusprint software there is a window on the side with 'LIBRARIES' at the top and I can access my photos and albums from here.  I can still see all my photos in the various albums etc., underneath and when I click on them they open as thumbnails underneath but iPhoto itself is still paralysed even after I quit the Bonusprint software.

  • When watching a slideshow I could always access music from my iTunes folder.  Suddenly today I can only hear music under the 'theme' tab.  I can see my music in iTunes but when I double click on it nothing happens!

    In iTunes go File -> Library -> Organise Library -> Reorganise Library.
    Then quit and restart iPhoto.
