Tools Panel missing in Photoshop CS6 for Mac

I have been using Photoshop CS6 for Mac for about 6 mths. now. When I opened it yesterday to work on some photos, I noticed that my tools panel that is always located on the left side of my screen had disappeared. I have been unable to locate it anywhere. Also, the top of my photoshop page looks different. Any assistance that I could get would be greatly appreciated.

Camera Raw Filter is not working correctly in Photoshop CC when applied to video layer

With Photoshop CC, when editing a video and adding a "Camera Raw Filter" to some video layer, the effect will be applied only to one frame and not to the whole video layer.
Should it not add that filter to the whole layer (e.g. all frames in that clip)?

Either it's a bug or a limitation. Haven't yet tried this, so I can't tell you whether it works as it should or is acting up... I would however assume that within what one can expect it works as designed - ACR doesn't have a built-in timeline, so there would be nothing for the PS routines to request retrieval of frames from withing the SO.

[Photoshop CC 2014] Click&hold-move-release doesn't work when adding adjustment layer from the layer panel

When selecting a menu item I used to click the left mouse button and hold it down, move the pointer to the desired menu item and release the mouse button. Everything works fine in the mine menu, but there's a problem when adding new adjustment layer from the layer panel: when I release the button nothing happens, I have to press the button again. In previous PS version it worked fine. How can I fix this?

I don't think that is user fixable, meaning you'll have to wait till adobe fixes it with an update.

You updated Quicktime or your Windows Media Architecture, used a different CoDec in your video, use an incompatible Codec to begin with. Furthermore, you could have upgraded your graphics card drivers, messing around with hardware accelerated playback. Really not clear. you need to provide more info about the matter, even more so, as you use non-standard video player software in your demonstration video and it's unclear, if any other tool based on Windows Media Architecture or QT would play the videos without problems. and please, don't use excessive formatting in your posts, it is bad conduct and very impolite to "scream".

When I open Photoshop CS6, the image does not show in Photoshop. The image IS open, i.e. the filename is shown on a tab and the image layers show in the layer panel. What is going on?

Both Photoshop and Bridge open as usual. But when I open an image, the image does not show in the image area. The image filename does show in a tab and the layers show in the layer panel. What is going on and how do I fix this.

I resolved the problem. It was somehow related to my using Microsoft
theme pictures. I set Windows to use the basic theme and the problem
went away. Thank you for the suggestions.

Can't create blank video layer in photoshop CS

Why can't I create a blank video layer in photoshop CS? (Mac)

yes i just did. no change in menus.
and yeah creating new normal layers does create blank video layers but the keyframe animation doesn't work. i have to position the layers one after the other so it looks like something animated, it's ridiculous.
sorry for posting three pictures but here i hope this clarifies things a little

How to identify selected layers in layer panel of Photoshop?

Hi everyone,
I'm working on a Photoshop plug-in, and I want to identify selected layers in layer panel.
As I tested so far, didn't came up with a solution..
If anyone can provide me a solution it will be greatly appreciated,
Thanks in advanced..

Looping through controls is indeed a inefficient way of doing what you want!
With such a great number of controls, you could assign an appropriate callbackData to each of them when loading the panel. Next you could create an array of control IDs with all the LEDs and operate in the switch callback to turn on and off the corresponding led. A small example will be more clear:
At panel load:
int leds[200];
SetCtrlAttribute (panelHandle, PANEL_SWITCH1, ATTR_CALLBACK_DATA, (void *)1); leds[1] = PANEL_LED1;
SetCtrlAttribute (panelHandle, PANEL_SWITCH2, ATTR_CALLBACK_DATA, (void *)2); leds[2] = PANEL_LED2;
SetCtrlAttribute (panelHandle, PANEL_SWITCH192, ATTR_CALLBACK_DATA, (void *)192); leds[192] = PANEL_LED192;
In the switch callback:
int CVICALLBACK switchOnOff (int panel, int control, int event,
void *callbackData, int eventData1, int eventData2)
int sts;
if (event != EVENT_COMMIT) return 0;
// Get the status of the switch
GetCtrlVal (panel, control, &sts);
// Set the led to the proper status
SetCtrlVal (panel, leds[(int)callbackData], sts);
return 0;
For this solution to work, leds[] array must be global so that it is available to the control callback.
An additional improvement could be to modify the panel loading so that swithces and leds are created programmatically. You could have a single switch/led pair set in the UIR editor and next have a loop that duplicate the controls, sets callbackData and loads the array of led ids.
Proud to use LW/CVI from 3.1 on.

Missing frames in smart object converted video layer?

I noticed that whenever i try to convert a video layer I drew on in photoshop to a smart object, when i play it back there are empty frames! And no matter what I do I cannot get it to show the frames. Now I know the frames werent empty when i first drew on the video layers, and when i import a video into photoshop and convert it to a smart object all the frames are there. So I guess it's just an error with video layers with drawings on them done in photoshop? I tried googling every possible wording of this scenario but I found NOTHING, so can someone please help me?

after using high fidelity image trace i hit expand, then i went to layers and hit the drop arrow by my thumbnail, which then shows <Group>,hit that drop arrow and it will show a list of all your paths, the very bottom one was my white background, you can click the eye or delete that path and it disappeared for me. i was using a png file with a transparent background, and nothing else worked for me, it always converted with white background, i never saw this mentioned anywhere, and accidentally discovered it, hope it works!!!

Importing a video layer from photoshop cs5 to after effects cs5

hi - you guys were so brilliant and prompt on answering my last question. thankyou
i did have another i needed help with -
is it possible to bring in a video layer from photoshop cs5 to after effects cs5 - i tried but it said "the photoshop library operation failed because the file is not compatible with this version of photoshop"
thanks again

In the import dialog box, uncheck the Photoshop Sequence option.
The problem is the number on the end of your file name. When After Effects sees a number there, and there are other files in that directory with the same name and a number, it thinks the images are part of a sequence and will enable that checkbox.
More info here: Import a single still image or a still-image sequence

Photoshop CC will not import any video files when I try Video Frame to Layers and New Video Layer from File

Specifically I'm trying to import a .MOV I made in Quicktime. The file opens up everywhere else so it's not an issue with the file being corrupted. The error message I get from CC is
"Could not complete command _____________ because the video file could not be opened."
As far as I know I didn't save the .MOV with any permissions, but then again I have very limitted understanding of Quicktime. Originally the file was a .GIF that I converted to an .MOV because I wanted to edit the GIF using the video timeline instead of the animation timeline.
Thanks for the help.
Also, as an aside since I know a lot of Adobe employees are on here, the animation timeline is pretty crummy, there should be a way that you can open a .GIF into the video timeline as a video layer.

Did the back and forth between PC and Mac file systems screw up my files somehow?
Yes. Unfortunately the move has almost certainly caused the loss of the resource data that would have been (invisibly) attached to those files.
By adding a specific .mov extension after the fact you will have helped the Mac correctly identify the file type / asscoiations but also significantly you will have physically changed the filename eg from "clip" to "clip.mov". This means that when you come to reconnect the media in FCP , then FCP will be looking for files that no longer exist at the given path eg when specifically looking for our example clip called "clip" of course it won't find it.
Try this as a test... first remove the ".mov" extension from one or more of the clips, select those clips and press Cmd-Opt-I to open an Info window for the selection. You'll see an "Open with:" popup and in that popup you should choose QuickTime Player (if its a Unix Executable then it will initially list Terminal as the appropriate app, you have to choose Other... then in the open dialog choose Enable > All Applications and then navigate to and select the Quicktime Player app as the appropriate app). After you've done that restart FCP and see if you can now reconnect to those clips.

PS CC Video Layer Smart Object error

I think I have found a bug, I'd like to see if it's reproducible for others. I don't know what the actual error is, but the error message says 'Photoshop could not complete the request because of a program error' (which I'm guessing is just a general error message that could be any number of things). To cause the bug, create a new blank video layer, and draw something on a few frames. Convert the layer to a smart object, and make a copy of the object on the timeline. Add transform key frames to each layer. Save the file. At this point, the file should still be able to play what is on the timeline (for me it does). Close the file, and attempt to reopen. PS should be unable to open the file.
Additional Info:
Whether the Smart object is composed of a single layer, or multiple layers, the error occurs.
I've only tested it so far with scale/rotation transformations, may happen with opacity and position
Altering the opacity and position of the second smart object without setting key-frames doesn't cause the error (just altering the opacity from the layers panel for example, or moving the video layer with move tool).
Timeline frame rate doesn't seem to affect it one way or another.
A few times when I didn't cause the issue intentionally for testing, I was still able to open the file, but attempting to start playback would then cause the error, which would crash Photoshop altogether. In those cases, I was able to find that one of the smart object layers in particular would crash photoshop when visibility was enabled/disabled, so I was able to drag all the other layers into a new file, only loosing one layer.
EDIT: Just to add, my question was: Can other people reproduce this bug?

I can also reproduce this bug.
It is also reproducible by creating a regular document.
Add a few layers with content.
Convert a few of those layers into a smart object.
Animate the contents of the smart object.
Everything works as expected. Timeline plays. Looks good.
Save: Get PS error "Photoshop could not update smart object because of a program error"
Save the animated file as it's own PSD just in case.
Close.
Re-open: Nothing works. Cannot scrub timeline, cannot save for web, cannot play timeline, cannot move objects.
Everything results in the error: "Photoshop could not complete the request because of a program error"
I have inadvertently lost a few hours of work a couple of times now due to this bug. It sucks because the work is there right in front of me but none of it is accessible to me.

Content Aware Scaling on Video Layer

Hello,
I hope this is possible because it works really well on still frames but how would I go about applying content aware scaling to a video layer inside PS? Basically I'm trying to use this feature to fake an aspect ratio change where by I have a subject surrounded by a relatively uniform background and I would like to be able to create a protection mask as an alpha layer and have photoshop apply the content aware scaling only to the background(to fill in the empty parts of the rescaled video) and leave the subject untouched.
What I've done is opened a video in photoshop as a layer, created an alpha channel to represent the subject(subject is white, background is black on the created alpha channel), changed the canvas size to the new aspect ratio which obviously created a tranparent frame around the original video frame. I then tried to apply content aware scaling to the video, it converted the layer to a smart object then displayed the free transform handles. However, when I selected my alpha channel as the protection area, the content aware scaling seemed to ignore it and went on to distort the entire frame. Now I tried this with still frame from the same video with the same mask/alpha channel and it worked as expected just didn't seem to do it with video.
The idea, if it would be possible to do this in PS, is to rotoscope the subject roughly in AE and generate a matte pass which can then be used as the acompanying alpha layer of the video so then the content aware scaling can be applied to each invidividual frame.
Is this possible??

No that's not what I was trying to do, I mask the central subject of my frame and as I said it was surrounded by a fairly uniform background(main subject is a rock formation in the middle of the ocean) I want to change the aspect ratio of that frame, so I created an alpha mask to cover the main subject, the surrounding background was not covered in this alpha channel mask. This way when I scale using the content aware feature all that happens is the background(the water) is streteched evenly with lesser distorion(than normal scaling) while the masked main subject is "avoided" with completely no distrotion. I think the key point you missed in my description is that I am in fact creating an alpha matte for only my subject not the entire frame and using that in the "protect" option of content aware scaling.
The result is essentially a frame aspect ratio change that does not sacrifice the resolution around the main subject(because the main subject remains of the same size and PS doesn't have to interpolate any pixels...this is obviously is not the same as just resizng and cropping where the subject and background are streched evenly to fill an essentially larger area of the screen causing "softness"). The result using this method is also much more predictable from frame to frame than content aware filling because it's taking information from the current frame and using is to fill the empty background resulting from the aspect ratio change. I know this works because I tried it on individual still frames from the video then compiled them back in on AfterEffects...thats not my problem. My problem is when you try to natively try to do this inside PS on a video layer(rather than a still frame) it doesn't work and I'm not sure if this is a bug or if video content aware streching is just not supported.I have CS6 Production Premium.

Is there a way to view all frame thumbnails in a video layer?

I'm aware of the "frame animation" option, but video layers are much more convenient. Ever since this addition Photoshop is nearly on par with TVPaint for drawn animation, but my only problem is that even when fully zoomed in I can't see my video layer frame by frame. Does anyone know if there is an option, script, or plugin to make this a reality? It's hard to know where to hold, insert, or remove a frame without being able to see the one coming up next, and even if I scrub through to see I constantly find myself second guessing that I'm in the right spot.

You can flatter video into frames but then I do not think they will be playable. Digital Video is not like a frame animation or even like a movie reel of film. There are actually whole frames only every so often. To be able stream video you need to keep the data rate low so video need to be highly compressed. So whole frame are the exception in between frames are partial frames the part that had motion the parts that changed. To give you some idea if the size difference. Animated Gif only support 256 colors. I took a couple seconds from a cilp my wife shot with our canon 1D Mk IV. 1920x1080 with sound I timed it down to two seconds. and rendered it as a h264 mp4 using Photoshop Video Preset High Quality. The mp4 produced was around 6MB is size had beautiful Color and sound. I then flattened the video into frame layers and was able to make a Frame animation. I save the frame animation all 58 frames 1920x1080 as an animated Gif the file was around 24MB the color awful and there was no audio.
