Today, while working in Photoshop CC 2014

I found that I couldn't change my file from 16 bit to 8 bit, even after flattening all the layers. I even saved the file as a jpeg and re-opened the file in Photoshop, and still couldn't change to 8 bit. Both Image mode and adjustment options are grayed out and not able to be selected.
What have I done that is keeping these options unavailable?
Thank you.

Something is totally messed up, since jpg does not support 16 bit, only 8 bit. Try resetting your preference file. (hold down the modifier keys when starting photoshop {shift-alt-ctrl or shift-opt-cmd} )

  • 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....

  • Bridge CC Tools - Photoshop - Batch does not work in Photoshop CC 2014.

    in Bridge CC Tools - Photoshop - Batch does not work in Photoshop CC 2014. At first I didn't even see the option but I reinstalled Photoshop CC and now I see the menu option but when I try it there is a message that I need to use Photoshop CC. So I open Photoshop CC and the same thing happens? I can't seem to make it work.

  • Lighting effect not working for photoshop CC 2014

    hello there i can not seem to get the lighting effects working in Photoshop cc 2014 i updated it and also made sure my graphic driver was updated and also made sure that it was strong enough to run it and it is so now i'm just confused why its not working.
    not sure what to do from here need to get some textures done and this does not help and couldn't find anwsers on the adobe contact us tab so came here.

    I could repro this. Fix it by restarting Photoshop.
    What happens is that when you toggled your graphics acceleration on without restarting Photoshop, it made Photoshop go coo-coo for Cocoa Puffs. (It happens.) Hopefully, someone from Adobe's staff will see this.

    BINGO !!!!
    Thanks so much Woodsroad. I had the exact same problem with my Dell Windows 7 64 bit with AMD Radeon 6700 Video card.
    All the video tests passed with flying colors.
    The sniffer rename trick fixed the problem.
    Thank goodness for the internet!

  • Today while working on PS Elements I was asked if I wanted to save my work. I said yes. After that I was unable to save my editing work on PSE 12. I use OS X Mavericks 10.9.3. Instead of saving my work I continue to get a "could not complete your request

    Today while working on PS Elements 12 I was asked if I wanted to save my work. I said yes. After that I was unable to save my editing work on PSE 12. I use OS X Mavericks 10.9.3. Instead of saving my work I continue to get a "could not complete your request because of a program error. My work can't be saved. I tried downloading the Creative Cloud and tried both settings, save to the cloud and do not save to the cloud. Either way I cannot save my work and I am stuck. Any help would be appreciated. Thank you

    Sorry, but I don't understand. PSE has nothing at all to do with creative cloud. If you're saying that you can't save work in any program, that's probably something wrong with your OS X installation. If you just are having a problem in PSE, the first thing to do is to go to the editor's preferences>general, click this button, and restart the editor:

  • Filters Are Not Working in Photoshop CC 2014

    Mac Book Pro 13" Retina OS 10.9.3
    I recently downloaded and installed Photoshop CC 2014 as part of my Creative Cloud License. When I attempt to use any Filter in the Filter Gallery (Blur, Distort, Noise, etc.) The window pops up showing the filter, it shows the preview affect. However, when I click OK, the filter is not applied. I have tried it on a raw file, a jpeg file, on an 8 bit and 16 bit file.
    When I go through the same steps with Photoshop CC it works fine.
    I appreciate any suggestions. I can continue to use Photoshop CC; however, when I am in Lightroom and select 'edit in' it launches Photoshop CC 2014 and I cannot figure out how to change it to launch Photoshop CC instead.

    Could you please post a screenshot to illustrate the issue?
    Maybe you should go through the usual trouble-shooting routines:

  • Why won't Adobe Bridge CC work with Photoshop CC (2014)?

    When I try to launch Bridge CC from Photoshop CC (2014), I get the Creative Cloud App window and Bridge won't launch.

    After reading a slew of blogs, I've come to the conclusion that Adobe is working on a fix, but it may be some time before that happens. It's really not a deal breaker, as one can launch Bridge first, and that will open PS CC 2014. Time wise it's not much of a difference.

  • I can't get Imagenomic Portraiture trial to work in Photoshop cc 2014 please help?

    I have previously used the trial successfully but it expired and I deleted it and then bought the Portraiture package only to be told that I have to install the trial and can then only enter the license key. The trial installs successfully ie I get the green tick for successful installation but it does not show up in my Photoshop Filters? I have contacted Imagenomic who are virtually impossible to contact and then are not interested in your problems once they have your money. Can you believe this level of customer service???  So frustrated.
    What I have tried:
    Quit PS before installation.
    Shutdown before and after installation.
    Checked System requirements for the software see below, it looks ok to me? ( I see below it is OK for PS CC but PS CC2014 is not specifically mentioned, could this be a problem now bearing in mind that I did get it to work on CC 2014 before?)
    Installing via Firefox and via Safari.
    My workware: MAcBook Pro OSX 10.9.4
                           Photoshop CC 2014
                           Imagenomic Portraiture trial current trial download version.
                            The trial I am trying to download is : Portraiture Plugin for Adobe Photoshop CS5/CS6/CC 
                                                                                      and Photoshop Elements 11/12 - Mac OS X 10.7/10.8/10.9 v.2.3.3 build 2330
                                                                                      Mac OS X 10.7.x/10.8.x/10.9.x, 1GB RAM, 100MB HDD, 1280x800 min resolution, Photoshop CS5/CS6/CC or Elements 11/12  ( this is the same one that I did
                                                                                      get to work before)

    I did resolve my issue by re-installing Portraiture 2.1. The latest version 2.3 would not run for me as I am still using CS3.  I suspect that when you originally ran the trial version, you, too, were running 2.1.  Contact Ani at [email protected] for assistance.  I hope this is helpful.

  • Edge Reflow CC (Preview) does not work with Photoshop CC (2014)

    I mean, I'm not sure if that how it is or if I'm facing some sort of compatibility problem with Reflow (version 0.47.17127).
    I just can't get it to work with the newest Photoshop CC (2014). It only works on Photoshop CC.

    Hi, I'm having the same problem. Please advise, thanks.

  • Application Specific Buttons on my Logitech mouse do now works on Photoshop CC 2014

    Hi there,
    Just updated to Photoshop CC 2014.
    I have Logitech MX 1100 mouse with some nice additional buttons that I used in previous versions of photoshop. I adjusted these buttons in SetPoint.
    After I updated to PS CC 2014 the buttons just stopped working. They worked just a 5 mins ago when I was using Photoshop CC.  (I use Latest Photoshop version, Latest Windows 8.1 version, Have Wacom tablet - latest drivers)
    Buttons also do not work in illustrator CC 2014, but surprisingly works on inDesign CC 2014.
    (Mapped functions on same buttons but on different applications, buttons worked good.)
    I used to use these buttons and I'm very frustrated I cannot. Please help.
    Thanks!

    Thanks for your reply, Chris Cox. I've checked the Windows System Event Log and here are the details:
    Details (Tab) of same error (Photoshop)
    I noticed since Jan 5, 2015, Photoshop has crashed a lot. I run Adobe Illustrator with it but it doesn't give the same errors. Other applications run fine too, so I'm not sure if it as you mentioned that it is the "system" that is crashing so often.
    (You seem to have suggested a video card upgrade. I will work on that next. Thanks)
    I hope you or anyone who can, help me with this problem with Photoshop and the issue with my account in Creative Cloud.
    Looking forward to your help. Thank you.

  • Eyedropper Tool Not Working Properly: Photoshop CC 2014

    I have the very latest version of Photoshop CC 2014. But, even before updating, all of a sudden, my eyedropper tool isn't working properly. It used to be that I could pick up a color from any place on the image, no matter what layer I was on. Now, it seems that layer MUST be the active one for the eyedropper tool to pick up the color. So, what's going on?
    If it means anything, I recently updated from OS X 10.8.5 to 10.9.5.

    So, what's going on?
    Possibly you paid no attention to the Tool’s settings in the Options Bar.

  • Shortcuts on my pen won't work? Photoshop CC 2014.

    Hey there.
    I was used to working in Photoshop CS6, but recently upgraded, today actually, to the newest version.

    I'm running Windows 8.1

    If the question has been asked before I'm sorry, I could not find it, and therefor I asked.
    Love.

  • The extension installer does not work in photoshop cc 2014

    Why is it so impossible to get help anywhere?  It says contacts us, then puts me into a circle loop of nothingness.  I bought an extension for Photoshop cc 2014 the extension manager has it, and claims its installed already but it is not .  I've uninstalled and reinstalled both and still it claims the extension is loaded into Photoshop.. If it is, its not with the action or the extensions under windows.  My God,to talk to any person would be a miracle. I'm really thinking of dropping this whole plan because this one question has taken me hours to even ask any body. Very frustrated indeed.

    Hi,
    When your in photoshop, goto window/extensions. Do you see the extension listed there? If not, your having the same problem as me. I can see some, but not all mine. I want to know why I can't see the others.....I know how frustrating it can be to find help these days. You just go around in damn circles!  I have asked in another post, hopefully we will get an answer soon.
