Standard brushes not working in Photoshop or Illustrator

I have a lot of standard brushes that came with the CC brush library that are not working with any of the programs they come with. When I hover over the brushes they say "Type: Sketch Brush This brush format is not supported by Photoshop/Illustrator"
So where can I use these brushes then? I would like to create brushes using the Adobe Brush CC program on my phone/tablet, but I can't use them in my programs. ... What am I doing wrong here?

They are probably brushes from Adobe Brush. You have to target them in Brush to either make them work in AI or Photoshop.

  • Text tool not working in photoshop (and illustrator)

    The text tool is not working in my CS5.5 photoshop (nor illustrator).    Box appears, can't see the type while typing.   Layer descriptor shows the text but the text does not show in the workspace.   Read several forum comments.   Deleted preferences, reset character and paragraph pallets.   Font size is adequate, have tried several different colors.     PLEASE HELP.

    Hi Mylenium -  I appreciate your response and would be happy to answer any specifics that you would need.   Since I obviously do not have your technical skill, please forgive my lack of knowledge related to information you may need.   I will try to answer here, but if you need additional information, please simply ask so that I can give you enough 'sensible' information.
    System specs: Dell Alienware Quad Processor with max RAM (I process digital videos.)  Windows 7 Operating System, Adobe Creative Suite 5.5
    Language:  English
    Preferences:  All were deleted per recommendation of Adobe Community Thread
    Character & Paragraph Pallets:   Both were re-set to Adobe defaults per Adobe Community Thread
    Font:   Calibri Regular, 14 point with 18 point row height.   AV horizontal and vertical are both 0.  Text horizontal and vertical scale are both 100%.  Baseline shift is 0.  Text color is black (on transparent)
    I have tried numerous fonts, font sizes and font colors.   Nothing shows up, but I know the text is there because of the layer label name.
    Can you help?   If not, how to I reach Adobe technical support?

  • [EB3]Events not working in Photoshop

    Hi All,
    Except the "applicationActivate", other events-
    - documentAfterActivate
    - documentAfterDeactivate
    - documentAfterSave
    are not working in Photoshop; strange thing is that they are working in InDesign.
    The code I'm using(working in case of InDesign)-
    var csInterface = new CSInterface();
    csInterface.addEventListener("documentAfterActivate", myEventHandler);
    function myEventHandler(){
         alert(event.type); // not alerted in case of photoshop
    Are these events not implemented in Photoshop? I also want these events with Illustrator (not tested yet)
    Any help will be highly appreciated

    Hi Shadowfax,
    Thank you for reporting this. The mechanism of CSInterface Events needs Products like PS or
    ID to send out the event like “applicationActivate” at the right time. However,
    not all Products send out all events now; attachment events.png is a table that
    listed current situation. Our team is actively pushing this issue forward and has asked Products team to
    send out necessary events.

  • Spacebar shortcut for hand tool not working in Photoshop CC - have tried closing all other programs

    The spacebar shortcut for hand tool is not working in Photoshop CC - as suggested in this form & others I have tried closing all other programs with no result. I have also reset photoshop to default settings & this did not make any difference either.

    There may be a software conflict. I went through this today. When I did a search in Adobe foruns actually found tha answer on the Illustrator forum:  http://forums.adobe.com/thread/1027227?
    What the problem for me was an app called - 1Password.  I had opened it, but not given my password to login and it was on in the background. As soon as I quit 1Password, the spacebar Hand Tool worked.
    Then I opened 1Password again, and logged in. This time the spacebar works.
    Others mentioned conflict with Spotify. And Chrome too. Couple other things. Read that thread in the link above.
    Good luck!

  • Logitech mouse buttons not working in photoshop cc 2014

    logitech mouse buttons not working in photoshop cc 2014 winds 8.1. Is this a common problem?
    I have updated the latest drivers and have a few buttons programmed with keyboard shortcuts that used to work in previous versions of Photoshop but don't work now.
    Scrolling with mouse in bridge stopped working in cc butI see it is now working.
    any ideas?

    Many Photoshop extensions are not compatible with Photoshop CC 2014 for Adobe removed support for Flash Panels in CC 2014. Many extensions panels are flash based.  Check with the developer to see if their blendmein extension works with CC 2014.
    Adobe does not maintain Photoshop so it backward compatible with prior versions of Photoshop.  This brakes things like action scripts plugins extensions etc. Keep old version of Photoshop installed....

  • New fonts not working in photoshop...

    I have installed new fonts on my mac but they will not work in Photoshop.. can somoene help me? I don't know if I have done something wrong or need to take another step.. I am running CS4 and OS 10.6.4. The message I get when I try to use a font I recently installed is "Could not complete your request because something prevented the text engine from being intitalized." Any help would be greatly appreciated!

    Most likely you have some corrupt fonts installed.
    Try validating the fonts using FontBook to find the most obvious problems.

  • Photoshop brushes not working

                   All my Adobe programs (Illustrator, Photoshop, Elements, ects) the paintbrush commands (or simply brush) will not work. Someone suggested uninstalling Photoshop and performing a clean reinstall. I tried that but now the Photoshop installer program wants me to put the original program CD in the D: drive - unfortunately my D: drive is a harddrive so there is no way for me to put the CD in there!! I also suspect that all my Adobe programs are corrupted not just Photoshop. Does anyone know what happened and how I can go about taking care of the problem?
    Thanks and Merry Christmas,

    To me it sounds like windows changed your drive letters or something. D drive should always be your CD/DVD drive by default.
    My computers look like this:
    A: is for the old floppy drive (I don't have one so it is turned off in the bios)
    B: floppy old disk not used
    C: primary drive
    D: CD/DVD
    E: Second drive
    F: USB stick
    So either you set it up this way or windows changed the sequence.
    What OS do you have? I will do some searching about changing the drive letters.

  • Brush/pencil not working in Photoshop

    My brush/pencil tool isn't working in Photoshop CS5...when I try and use it it just makes a dot and doesn't allow me to draw a continuous line...

    I got called away, so excuse me for not getting back sooner.
    I did not know you were using a tablet. If you disconnect the tablet does the mousepad or trackpad give the same results?
    If so, you may try resetting prefs. I do not know if you are using a Mac or PC

    If not then you may have to troubleshoot your tablet and check your tablet's maker for the latest drivers.

  • Working between Photoshop and Illustrator

    Hi,
    I am trying to work between the two programs without losing quality, but I am not having any luck.
    I usually start in Illustrator, creat some vector artwork, add some brushes to it in photoshop....
    by the time i come back to illustrator it looks like my original design has been rasterized.
    The vector artwork is pixelated.
    Tried saving in a few different formats from photoshop but can't figure it out.
    I'm sure it is sometihng basic.
    Thanks for the help.

    You get what you ask for:
    I usually start in Illustrator, creat some vector artwork, add some brushes to it in photoshop....
    PS, for all intents and purposes, is pixel based. The only way to retain vector editability would be to use smart objects, but then again none of this matters when you go back to AI as it has its own share of issues dealing with PS files. It's really your workflow.. You should try to only do the parts in PS that you realyl must and then export them as a separate document with transparency which then can be imported and integrated in AI...
