Stuck in B&W - and YES, I'm in RGB mode

I hope someone can please help me figure this out.
My color picker will only show grayscale. I've tried everything... starting a new file and turning off color management, new doc in both CMYK and RGB. I've changed image modes (and no, it's not in grayscale), I've even opened existing files that have color. Even in these files, I still get grayscale only.
One thing that I did do that successfully gave me some color was I used a pre-made color gradient and then picked one of the colors from it. That worked fine. But as soon as I delete the gradient and go back into the picker, it's back to B&W.
I suspect that I must have toggled something by accident. Can someone PLEASE help me? I'd sure appreciate any input. I'm obviously dead in the water till I figure this out.
Please email me at [email protected] if you need more info or ask here.
If I'm an idiot and my question is an idiot problem, I'm very sorry. What can I say??? I'm an idiot! :-P
Thanks everyone.
Tom

Your question is not even remotely a color management issue and, therefore, it's in the wrong forum.
It's an application specific question and thus belongs in the Photoshop forum for your platform of choice:

That being said, try turning on the H button (instead of the B button) and see if that makes a difference:
If necessary, delete/re-set your preference files by holding down Command+Option+Shift as you launch Photoshop.
Next time you post (in the appropriate forum) give details about your setup. Read the following link carefully in its entirety.
Please read this FAQ for advice on how to ask your questions correctly for quicker and better answers:

Shuffle 3G is 'stuck' in straight play and won't switch to shuffle mode.

The shuffle when in shuffle mode shuffles the songs reasonably randomly and when i staright mode, I can access all my playlists BUT if i switch from shuffle to straight and the want to switch back to shuffle the problem begins. The shuffle will then only play straight mode in either position of the switch, ie straight or shuffle position and the only way to correct it is to connect the shuffle to itunes [not do a restore] until the sync is complete [a matter of seconds]. I have tried resetting the shuffle and moving the switch from shuffle to straight and the back to shuffle [page 21 of the manual] and neither make any difference.I have restored the unit a bout 3 times and it still happens.
So, why is this happening? Is there something i should be doing? Or do i need to change the shuffle? I have even used different earphones [Apple and 3rd party with Belkin Adapter] and that makes no difference either. Help and advice please

I prefer the 7th Generation Nano and Bluetooth headset. Get plugs for the heaphone and lightning jack or put it in water resistant case to prevent perspiration from killing it. You can turn off shake to shuffle in settings.

My iPhone 5 wouldn't start after I turned it off a few minutes after writing this. It went into recovery mode and I had no choice but to connect to iTunes on PC and restore.
I restored to factory setting first, just to validate my phone was okay. For a second consecutive iOS update, the iPhone 5 did not update smoothly while connected to PC and iTunes - I had to retry two times before the progress bar for the update showed. (The exact same problem with the restart occured when I updated to 7.0.4.)
The good news is that I was ultimately able to restore the iPhone 5 to factory settings while running iOS 7.0.6. I did have a backup from about a month ago lying around and was able to successfully restore with that as well, so the damage done is almost negligible since I had my contacts, notes, mail, etc. backed up to iCloud.
Once I completed both restores, the sync with iTunes worked fine.

My 5s iPhone is stuck on Itunes icon and a cable. I tried to do a restore but the iPhone isn't updated. All the labs that i send it to, couldn't fix it, what I can to? help! thanks.

Sounds like a 'stuck' Shift key. You could try to take the key off and put it back on yourself (should be some info on that from ifixit) or just take it to your local Apple Store and have them fix it.

What's the precise text of that message please, jeremy? (There's a few different ones I can think of that you might be getting.)

Repeatedly getting stuck on spinning wheel and grey screen, even after multiple re-installs of the OS

Ok, so running Lion on a MacBook, (2010 i think) and the OS got corrupted(stuck on spinning wheel and grey screen on boot)
Tried to repair the disk via disk utility using an install CD, no go, couldn't repair, so, did a clean install.
New install went fine, computer worked for about 3 days and then stuck on the spinning wheel again.
suspecting physical damage to the harddrive, I installed the OS to an external, and booted from there. Worked for a couple days and then stuck on the spinning wheel.
I have repeated the process 5 times now, each time it works for a little and then craps out again.
What's going on?
as a note, when I say it gets stuck on the spinning wheel, I have left it for 12 hours trying to boot to no avail.

The Apple Hardware Test doesn't always detect all errors.
Next time you get the gray screen/spinning wheel, try booting into the Safe Mode to see if it will boot.
Shut down the computer and then power it back up. Immediately after hearing the startup chime, hold down the shift key and continue to hold it until the gray Apple icon and a progress bar appear. The boot up is significantly slower than normal. This will reset some caches, forces a directory check, and disables all startup and login items, among other things. If the system operates normally, there may be 3rd party applications which are causing a problem. Try deleting/disabling the third party applications after a restart. For each disable/delete, you will need to restart if you don't do them all at once.

My iPod touch is stuck on iTunes logo and USB cord image.

I just bought a brand new iPod touch two days ago. So I am new at this, I plug the USB into my iPod touch last night to buy and download music and apps from iTunes; it worked just fine. Today, I go to charge my iPod into my computer and put some more music on it. Then, iTunes pops up a warning sign of some sort and says I needed to upgrade my iTunes, I clicked okay while my iPod touch was still plugged in my computer. In the middle of its process, another warning sign pops up and says I needed to cancel the process immedently. So, I did; and now my iPod is telling me to connect my USB to iTunes. And it's stuck on that screen; and my iPod won't show up on my computer nor iTunes, but it makes the "ding" noise when i replug my USB into my iPod.
I tried Apples support searches, and going to Youtube to search how to fix it, but non have both problems at the same time.
PLEASE SOMEONE HELP, I'M DYING TO SAVE MY NEW iPOD!
Thank you,
Sincerely, Adelina

First and foremost...
Are you absolutely certain that you're using a USB port that does, in fact, provide power to the iPod? If there is the slightest doubt, use an Apple wall-mount charger if you have one. If you don't have one, use a USB port directly on the CPU. Do NOT use a port on a hub. Do NOT use a port on the keyboard (which is really a hub). Charge the unit preferably overnight but a full hour as an absolute minimum.
If you're still having a problem after doing the above, try this.

TS4062 HELP!!! When I try to sync my iPhone with iTunes it gets stuck at step 2 and goes no further. I have iTunes 10.6.3.25. It happens all the time. I have Windows 7.

Please help. Every time I try to sync my iphone with itunes it gets stuck at step 2 and just spins. I have iTunes 10.6.3.25 installed. I've even shut down and rebooted. Nothing helps.

Based on what someone else said, I am getting the "rotating ball of eternal sadness". Yup. That about describes it.

The apple tech on the phone, went to my control,panel
Went to my devices. Original iPad showed up,there In red and then he had me go,to apple website, download something and it said it could configure to my computer.
Is,finally answer,to me was go to the apple care,one on one appointment, and it's my "software"
A man I know told me "Apple at store, won't be able to do,anything for me"
That's not very positive.
What else? Can't I download iPad drivers,into my computer?

Also try this - Turn Off your iPad. Then turn Off the wireless router & then back On. Now boot your iPad. Hopefully it will see the WiFi.

Follow the explicit instructions in the article from which the thread was started and restore the device from the backup of the previous device.

I think there's some remmants left over from when Apple transferred stuff over. We can try a quick fix, but if that doesn't work, I think the only option is to clean install OSX and then install Windows.
open disk utility, confirm that you only have 1 partition (mac journaled)
restart and PRAM reset
open disk utility and repair permissions twice
restart boot camp assistant
Does it work?
If not, I would boot holding command+R, choose disk utility from the menu and completely erase your HD (formatting it as mac journaled again). Then, install OSX on this HD. Once OSX is installed, don't copy your files over from the backup yet. Instead, start boot camp assistant and see if you can get Windows installed. You can copy back your other files after we get Windows installed.

Connect the iPod to its syncing computer and restore via iTunes. If the iPod asks for the passcode and you can't enter the passcode or if you do not have the syncing computer, place the iPod in recovery mode and then restore. For recovery mode:

LENOVO G50-30 stuck at lenovo logo and cant even enter bios

Hello
I yust got my lenovo G50-30 and wanted to install win 7 on it. after the first BsoD I went to bios and changed the AHCI to legacy mode. Got the same BsoD. After that I changed the Os mode from win 8 to win 7 ... loaded the factory default settings and putted from AHCI to legacy mode again.
After that the laptop turns on, but it stucks at lenovo logo. I cant access the bios anymore to make any other changes. If I insert a win7 instalation disc, it start to spin but with no sucess. also cant acess the boot options anymore.
Any help greatly apreciated

I suggest removing battery and AC, holding the power button for more than 15 seconds to reset the BIOS back to default settings then see if the issue remains.
Make sure to post the results.
Good luck.
