  • The editing feature of photoshop elements stopped working what is the solution

    the  editing feature of photoshop elements stopped working after i installed nik efex pro wacom pen.

    You need to remove third party plugin and try launching. You should find it in plugins folder either here C:\Program Files (x86)\Adobe\Photoshop Elements 10\Plug-Ins or C:\Program Files (x86)\Adobe\Photoshop Elements 10\Locales\en_US\Plug-Ins
    Else try skipping the loading of thirdparty plugins like below:
       1. Close Elements.
       2. Launch the Photoshop Elements Welcome Screen and hold down ctrl/cmd + shift as you click Editor/Edit.
       3. Continue to hold the keys until you see a message to skip loading of 3rd party plugins..Click yes and check.
    Thanks,

  • How do you get the clone tool to work properly because everytime i try it brings up the brush pallet instead of letting me clone

    i am trying to use the clone tool in photoshop elements on a mac book pro and every time i do it brings up the brush pallet

    No you don’t need to uninstall iPhoto but are you trying to edit a photo from the iPhoto Library?
    If so export a copy from iPhoto to the desktop and then open that copy in the Elements editor.

  • Why does the clone tool not work? I just installed elements 9.

    I bought photoshop elements through an online vendor and just trying to put it to use. The clone tool does not work at all. I have photoshop elements 5 on my computer, which I kept even after installing version 9. It works.

      Try selecting the clone tool and doing a tool reset.

    I am using Lightroom 5 and am hapy about it, but recently I hav encountered a problem when trying to edit an image in another program, i.e. Elements. I used the clone tool, saved the result and went back to Lightroom to open the image there. I did find a second copy, but this is identic with the one I already had in Lightroom, and I can see noe result of the clone process.

    At the moment I would say it is uncertain whether Acrobat is completely ignoring the change, or whether the changes you are making aren't affecting the ink density. I have a suggestion for a test you could make to see which is the case.
    When editing in Photoshop just add a box or mark on the image, for your tests.
    - If this box does not appear in Acrobat, you know Acrobat is not seeing the edit
    - If this box does appear in Acrobat, you know the problem is that your tool for changing ink densities is not taking effect.

    A lot more information about your hardware and software is needed.
    BOILERPLATE TEXT:
    If you give complete and detailed information about your setup and the issue at hand,
    such as your platform (Mac or Win),
    exact versions of your OS, of Photoshop (not just "CC", but something like CC2014.v.2.2) and of Bridge,
    your settings in Photoshop > Preference > Performance
    the type of file you were working on,
    machine specs, such as total installed RAM, scratch file HDs, total available HD space, video card specs, including total VRAM installed,
    what troubleshooting steps you have taken so far,
    what error message(s) you receive,
    if having issues opening raw files also the exact camera make and model that generated them,
    if you're having printing issues, indicate the exact make and model of your printer, paper size, image dimensions in pixels (so many pixels wide by so many pixels high). if going through a RIP, specify that too.
    a screen shot of your settings or of the image could be very helpful too,
    etc.,
    someone may be able to help you (not necessarily this poster, who is not a Windows user).

  • I have Photo Shop Elements 11. How do I find the clone tool?

    I have Photoshop Elements 11. How do I find the clone tool?

    You can select the clone stamp tool in Expert mode by pressing the letter S on the keyboard. There are two choices in the tools options bar at the bottom. Either clone stamp or pattern stamp tool.

    Whe I use the Alt key with the clone tool, I get a message that I have to use the Alt key to define the area to be copied. What am I doing wrong?

  • How do you open the clone panel in Photoshop Elements 12, it isn't shown in the windows list

    I am trying to access the clone panel in Photoshop Elements 12. The tutorials I have seen show a drop down list from the windows button, however on my drop down list there is no clone panel.
    I guess my question is does PE12 have a clone panel and if so how do I access it?

    I've never heard of a "clone panel" but the clone stamp is in the Enhance section on the right side, below the Healing Brush. If you see the pattern stamp there instead, just click the clone stamp in the tool options at the bottom of the window.

      Right-click on the tool directly below the red-eye and then you can choose either the clone tool or the pattern tool.

  • Using the clone tool on a picture I have pasted in another background?

    I have photoshop elements 9, and took a photo that I wanted to change the background on. I erased all the picture except for my husband and I, then used the lasso tool to outline our photo and I copied it, and pasted it on another picture with a better backround. Now I am unable to use the clone tool on my husband and I, but can on the background. Maybe there is a better way to extract a photo and post it to a new background. But everytime I try to see how to do it on google, I see all these other tools that people use that I don't have. I have only elements 9, so am limited. Any suggestions?

    I'm not at all sure I understand how elements 9 is limited in terms of the clone stamp compared to whatever you're googling, but I think your problem is most likely that you are either not targeting a portion of a layer with something in it (trying to clone from the empty area of the layer surrounding the pasted in image of you and your husband, for example) or trying to clone from a layer that isn't active (trying to clone from the background layer when the pasted in layer is the active layer).
    You might want to turn on the Sample all Layers checkbox and see if that helps any.

  • I have pluged a portable battery to the USB and my macbook pro stopped working after that, right before it shut down there was a message on the screen that said something like " USB device is withdrawing so much power, please disconnect and connect again?

    I have plugged a portable battery to the USB and my macbook pro stopped working after that, right before it shut down there was a message on the screen that said something like " USB device is withdrawing so much power, please disconnect and connect again?
    if the device I connected have caused this, shouldn't the macbook itself have some type of protection that should prevent this from happening.
    because when I took it to an apple certified maintenance shop, the guy said that now it could only run while connected to the power. it won't run on batteries. and that I have to change the motherboard.
    can I just replace the damaged part only, would apple consider this as a design issue and they could pay for it, or should I just buy a new motherboard for 800$.
    Help.

    BB1B2,
    The problem is in finding a tech shop that will/can do board level repairs on Macs. They are few. And I certainly wouldn't spend $800 on a new logic board - I would replace the computer if I had to pay that much!
    You could call around to a few repair shops and see if they feel competent to isolate the problem and do a board level repair - but I'm afraid, in the end, that your search will be futile.
    Sorry,
    Clinton

  • Help please - have a Nano and a Shuffle and neither are working! The Nano wheel appears to have stopped working - I can't get it to do anything. I've done the reset,it worked the first time but not since. And the shuffle won't sync with my library!

    Hi,
    I have an iPod shuffle 4th generation and an iPod Nano 5th generation . The Nano wheel appears to have stopped working - I can't get it to play or anything. I've done the reset and it worked the first time, but now the only way I can get it to play anything is to shake it and go with the shuffle choices - I can't change volume, song, pause or turn it off.
    So, I decided to start using the Shuffle which I was given as a present last year. I've plugged it into my laptop (running windows 8 and newest version of iTunes). It appears in iTunes on the left hand side, but when I click to sync (whether I tick sync all or choose artists) it says synched but has no music. It seems to not be linked to the music library - when I tick synch all songs, next to the "sync music" it says 0 songs?
    Any help to fix either would be really appreciated - I'm without any music at the moment and I'm going away this weekend!
    Thanks

    Hi Bblairjones,
    If you are having issues with your Nano and Shuffle, you may want to try the Troubleshooting Assistants on the following page:

  • I can edit on Premiere Pro 6 files, but after a dozen keystrokes, the space bar and cursor keys stop working while the save function works

    I can edit on Premiere Pro 6 files, but after a dozen keystrokes, the space bar and cursor keys stop working while the save function, render workspace function, export file are still operational. How can I fix it so I may complete my assignment?
    Besides DaVinci Resolve, Adobe Creative Suite 6 is the only software on the machine. I am using Windows 7 Professional 64-bit Operating System on AMD FX 6100 six-Core Processor at 3.31gHz and 32 GB RAM memory. There are two SLI-bridged GTX680 NVidia cards.
    The software was very stable for the last six months, working with 720P proxy files from 2.5K masters (Blackmagic Design Camera). I am working on a feature-length project that exceeds 1000 edits. I have broken the file into 2 one hour segments.
    I have deactivated the software before reinstalling the entire OS from scratch. PP6 was very stable for 48 hours. Then the freezing space bar returns. After a dozen strokes into the project, same problem.  I have made cache files store next to originals, I have deleted preview files if they were corrupted and causing instability. Am I missing something?
    I have Microsoft Security Essentials for virus protection. I double checked the memory for damage/defect. Nothing says that the motherboard or other components are damaged.
    I am in film competition overseas and need to have deliverables in less than a month's time.  I lost the last two weeks troubleshooting and this crisis came at an inopportune moment of the project.
    Any assistance would be greatly appreciated.

    Still getting software freezes but found a way to mitigate for the mean time.
    Upon launching Adobe Premiere Pro, hit CTRL-ALT-DEL to launch TaskManager as well.
    You will want to highlight Adobe QT32 Server.exe
    Right click and select "End Process Tree"
    You will get considerable stability in the program, long enough to get timing of cuts done. Be sure to save often.
    If the program freezes, do not hit Save. You definitely want to avoid saving the corruption into your TimeLine
    CTRL-ALT-DEL to relaunch the TaskManager and highlight Adobe Premiere Pro.exe
    Right-click to "End Process"
    No need to reboot the whole system; just launch Premiere Pro again and continue with the session. Note that your work reverted to Last Save.
    Hope this helps until the bug is fixed.
