Tools palette not visible or accessible

I have been using the particular installation of Labiew (V 6.0, under Windows XP) for a long time without the following problem. All of a sudden, one day, the Tools Palette was not visible, and I was not able to get it back. Tried, of course, clicking "Window >> Show Tools Palette" but this does nothing. I can still cycle through some of the tools using the keyboard (Tab and space bar). Tried cold rebooting -- nothing. Hopefully, I don't have to reinstall.

Here's something to try...perhaps the Tools palette location got stored in the LabVIEW INI file with some funky location, such that it is showing up, but not within the visible bounds of the screen. I'm not sure what the INI entry would be, but it's probably something human readable, like "ToolsPalleteLocation="2000,2000". If you see an entry like that, delete it and restart LabVIEW. But if you don't see anything immediately obvious, you could close LabVIEW, delete (or rename) your LabVIEW INI file, relaunch LabVIEW, and see if your Tools palette shows up again. If so, then it's definitely something fishy in your INI file.
Also, I seem to recall from my days long long ago in the AE department that there might be a KnowledgeBase entry, or a previous Dev Exchange post, on this issue. So if my suggestion is no good, try checking those resources.
Good luck,

PS Tool Palette Not visible from Aperture 2 Edit

I have looked through the manuals, but haven't found anything on this problem.
I have an image I want to edit in Photoshop Elements 4. When I make the request in Aperture, PS loads up, but the only thing available is the burn and dodge tools at the top. The entire tool palette is no where to be seen.
Why is this the case? How do I get a file to load up so I can use PS to edit it in full capability mode? I have Aperture exporting it to PS as a PSD format.
Any suggestions or council?
Thanks.
Matt

I assume you're choosing "Edit with" from the Images menu, but are you certain you're not choosing the "Dodge and burn" sub-choice, just under the Adobe Photoshop sub-choice?

IMAQ write palette not visible

I have installed NI Vision 2011 but IMAQ write file vi is not visible but IMAQ write file 2 vi is visible. No idea what is the problem.
I am using labview 2011 on windows 7.
Kudos are always welcome if you got solution to some extent.
I need my difficulties because they are necessary to enjoy my success.

Write2 replaces Write. It handles file formats differently. I believe there is a legacy option during install that will put these earlier versions of Vision VIs into a separate folder, if needed. Check the Device Drivers Install CD, and DVD 2.

Adobe Muse guide tool tip not visible

I can't see the tool tips from the guide. How do I turn these on so they are visible and I can use them? Now the only way to change section sizes is using the page properties.
Thanks

InDesign CC Page Tool Info not visible

I'm in InDesign CC and attempting to make the back side of a postcard a different orientation than the front - specifically from landscape to portrait.
I've always been able to use the Page Tool to select the page and then reorient the page, but as of this moment no information appears in the Control Panel at the top of the page. See the screenshot below.
Saving down to IDML and opening in CS6 reveals the information I was looking for.
So, as of the moment, I need to save down to CS6 in order to use the Page Tool.
Any ideas as to how to restore this functionality in InDesign CC? I may be missing something.
Thanks in advance.

Looks like corrupt preferences. Try trashing them.

Pen Path not visible - Illustrator CS4

Hello all,
I am a relatively comfortable user of Illustrator - but just now I have encountered a problem whereby my pen path tool is not visible as I draw. When objects are selected with either the selection tool or direct selection tool the path outline is not made available to select. All I get is a generic bounding box with the selection tool - with the direct selection tool I get nothing.
I have scoured the user preferences for some hidden setting - all I can think is that I've mashed the keypad in some wierd and wonderful way that has made this suddenly happen.
Any pointers or help would be much appreciated.

Thank you, that sorts it! In all my years I have never needed that function - I did not know it existed.

I own a ipad mini and a iPod touch , both configured on the same apple account, how do I ensure that my data on the ipad mail,notes,pics etc is not visible/accessible on the ipod

I own a ipad mini and a iPod touch both configured on the same id
How do I ensure that my data on the ipad mail,notes,pics etc is not visible/accessible on the iPod touch when the iPod is connected to a wi fi connection

Mail: do not have the same account loaded onto the two devices.
Photos: go into Settings->Photos & Camera->and turn off photo stream.
everything else, sign out of the Apple ID on the device you dont want to be visible.
good luck

I accidently click for a full screen view on Firefox and now I can't undo it. My bar with tools, bookmarks, etc. is not visible. As the browser opens, the bar appears but then jumps up where it can't be reached. How do I turn off the full screen?

Co-el, This wasn't possible as there wasn't a navigation bar available. The F11 did the trick though. Thanks for adding to the discussion.

Keeping tool palettes visible

So I am new to using Flash on a Mac. I am used to working on a PC at work and so now one of my frustrations is how the tool palettes disappear when you leave the program. For instance, part of my job is to have my actions panel open with URLs for my flash movie and compare it to links listed on a website where I have to click to see the URL. So when I go to Firefox to view the link, my tool palette disappears. Please tell me there's a way to set so the tool palettes remain even if I am not focused on Flash. I guess the same goes for all Adobe prods, but mostly for Flash for me.
oh and I am using Flash CS3 on Mac OS X.5
Thanks

Not that I ever heard of. However, Safari is still viewable, and if you have a mouse with a scroll wheel it is even scrollable, when it is in the background. So arrange things so you can see Safari and bring the other application forward. If it has the idiotic "I have all the screen when I'm forward" setting programmers have become so fond of (too much time in Windows I guess), you may be able to turn some of that off--anyway, you can in Photoshop Elements. Explore the Preferences, look for a setting involving seeing the Desktop. Otherwise the best you can do is take a screenshot of your open app, open the screenshot in Preview, size it to something that allows you to see both it and Safari, and compare the page with the screenshot.

Hidden tools palette? I would like a palette which shows ALL tools, not popups...

I am really frustrated (for decades now) that Photoshop groups some tools together which don't make sense to me, and so are hard to find when I do want to use them.
Examples (and vice versa):
Ruler under Eye dropper
Pencil under Brush
Paint Bucket under Gradient
Sponge under Burn
Shapes under Line
etc
I would like a tools palette which shows ALL tools, all the time.
Has anyone done one of these? Might I get a copy?
Thanks
William

Excellent! Thank you, very much. That's exactly what I needed!
This one is in a regular palette window which can be grouped with other windows, so does not take up any extra space.

Saved Project is not visible/Accessible

I am using MS project 2010 Server. I created a project, saved it to the Project Server, it saved successfully. I closed the project and if I click retrieve the project from the project server option, my newly
saved project is not visible/accessible. What access do I need to see the project in Ms project Professional? Kindly note that the project is not Published.
If I try to open it from the cache (Recent items), it says
You do not have sufficient permissions to perform the requested action.
contact your server administrator.
Regards,

Indeed you should at least belong to the project manager group, assuming you're using the default security model with no tweaking. Since I understand you're not the admin of Project Server, I'd suggest that youdo a working session with the admin, identifying
which groups/categories you belong to and see which relevant permissions are missing (open project, save project...).
Hope this helps,

Marquee and pen tools do not leave a visible track until selection is finished

When usinf the pen tool or the rectangular marquee tool and draging the path in invisible and does not appear until the "make work path" instruction is selected. Yhe use of the pen tool as an invible line pretty much renders the pen tool as usless. I have obviously turned something off. How do I fix this problem. Very frustrating. I have reinstalled prhoshop CS4 (3) times, same situation.

Found the answer in another thread. If pen tool path is not visible, then un checking "open gl" in edit>preferences>performance [GPU Settings] solves the problem.
Thank you to anyone who endevours to answer this question.
