Weird change in appearance of all tools in CS3

Suddenly, I am getting a dark square overlaying all my tools in CS3. The longer I hold the tool over the image, the darker and more opaque it gets, especially if there are large black areas in the image. I reset all my tools, dumped my preferences, went through all the paces I could think of.

I want to thank you for your conclusion. I did some research and apparently this was my problem as well, as you will see in my post. I still don't know if I have all of those other settings correct, but at least my DNS problem is resolved. I changed it both locally (in my Network Preferences) and the DNS servers on the router to the opendns.org IP addresses. Now my load times reflect the browsing speeds I had expected.
You're more awesome than you knew!

  • How do I enlarge the font in messages received and sent?  I have it set at "13", but it is very, very small on my screen.  I can't seem to change the appearance of the tool bar even when I try to "customize".

    How do I enlarge the font in messages received and sent?  I have the font set at "13", but the appearance on my screen is very, very small.  When I try to "customize the toolbar" to look like the tool bar above this message, I am unable to do so.  Please advise.  Thank you.

    Thanks MartinR, yes the Toggle bars can be adjusted so that I can see all the tracks - just in the smallest setting - however this also creates a huge area of grey which serves no other purpose than to "use up screen space". If this is deliberate then there is nothing one can do - since presumably the additional profit made on screen sales is more important to Apple, than the combined annoyance to those working on a 13" laptop. Of course a 15" screen or even 17" screen may make this wastage less obvious. Please indicate that this is all incorrect and explain why it is important to have space waiting "for additional tracks", even if I have no intention of making additional tracks. If that is the answer then perhaps additional space to the left and right of the timeline would be useful in case I wish to make a 30 minute film, so that it could be placed there without having to drag anything. It may be that I am expecting software than can be tailor adjusted, each parameter to the desired level as in professional items and since this is a cheap consumer program it is not possible.
    I bought Final Cut Pro for a lot of money (when it first appeared it was thousands and not just hundreds) but never used it since it was too complicated and tedious, but maybe there, this problem of screen wastage does not occurr, perhaps someone can advise! I could go back and reinstall it, but it was made for 10.2.8 and not 10.6.8 so it would not run on this macbook. I recently bought an old 15" TitaniumPowerbook (from 2005) and despite running at 1MHz the response time on it is "instantaneous" - amazing to not have the almost half second delay on many commands - graphics appear nearly immediately (just 5 milliseconds delay) and this makes working so much more enjoyable, not having the (350ms) stutter of 10.6.8 which we all get used to after our initial disappointment.
    Thanks for your help!

  • Changing the appearance of all my pages

    Hi,
    I would like to revamp my site and would like to change all of my pages from a black background to white and change the logo and image next to it to a new design I have created. Can I do this on one page then apply to the rest or does it have to be done manually on all pages... I have 36 or so pages!
    Thanks
    Pete

    Create one page and duplicate it.

  • A weird circle is appearing on my photos

    A weird circle is appearing on all of my photos that I take.
    It's really odd and gets annoying after a while. I've been on holiday recently and they're litterally EVERYWHERE. Same size and same spot.
    It's not the LCD and it's not the lens (from what I can see).
    http://min.us/mvbnwMN#1
    (The example album)
    It happens everywhere.. Even when it's dark!
    Should I send this back to Apple?
    I'm also having trouble with cracks above the 'silent mode rocker', there's a crack in the plastic there.

    Doubt it's the weather conditions then but it's still possible something like that could have affected it at one point so don't be suprised if they check the white tabs are still white at the bottom of the headphone jack and inside the 30-pin dock connector. They turn red due to moisture.  One other thing, it  could simply be a tiny piece of dust on the inside of the camera lens or on the sensor.  This could be really hard to spot too except in the photographs.  The main issues with the camera that I'm familiar with is a green or bluish tint in photographs which can happen under certain lighting conditions...
    You shouldn't need insurance to sort this out though, since it should be covered under the manufacturer warranty if it's less than a year old.  Plus, I have a friend who purchased an iPhone 4 from Vodafone but had problems with it and took it to the Genius bar in the local Apple Store. He had the original box and everything and they just swapped it out for another brand new phone. He had his since September last year.
    Good luck sorting it out, enjoy your holiday and let us know the outcome.

  • HT203421 I have recently purchased some apps from the app store and after downloading them, the icon that appears in the dock changes to a different icon. It is now the same icon appearing on all newly downloaded apps.  Does anyone know what is happening

    I have recently purchased some apps from the app store and after downloading them, the icon that appears in the dock changes to a different icon. It is now the same icon appearing on all newly downloaded apps.  Does anyone know what is happening here? Even updating an older game app resulted in the original game icon changing to the new identical icon that all new apps are appearing with.  This new icon is like a page with a ruler, pencil and paintbrush. Any tips on how to stop this or how to revert to the icon as it appears on the app store would be appreciated.

  • How do I have my notes that I create appear on all my devices? Or when I change a note it adjusts them. (iPad, iPhone, Macbook)

    I have tried looking on how to have my notes "sync" to appear on all of my devices (iPad, iPhone, Macbook Pro). When I create a note on my Macbook Pro it does not appear on my iPad or iPhone. I also read several posts about an "On my Phone" notes section on my iPhone. I don't have that on there either. My default email for my notes is my iCloud account. Why are none of my notes there either. Help

    I want to pass along a couple of tips that will get you more and better response on this list.
    1) There is an un-written rule that says more "stars" is better than just one star. Giving a one star rating will probably eliminate that responder from individuals that are willing to anser your question.
    2) If someone gives you an answer that meets your needs, reply to that answer and say that it worked.
    3) If someone suggests that you look at an example, DO IT! LV comes with a wonderful set of examples that demonstate almost all of the core functionality of LV. Familiarity with all of the LV examples will get you through about 80% of the Certified LabVIEW Developer exam.
    4) If you have a question first search the examples for something tha
    t may help you. If you can not find an example that is exactly what you want, find one that is close and post a question along the lines of "I want to do something similar to example X, how can I modify it to do Y".
    5) Some of the greatest LabVIEW minds offer there services and advice for free on this exchange. If you treat them good, they can get you through almost every challenge that can be encountered in LV.
    6) If English is not your native language, post your question in the language you favor. There is probably someone around that can help. "We're big, we're bad, we're international!"

  • I have an Iphone 4s from my work. Until 2 days ago, my iphone would notify me when I got an email or text. Now it does not notify me at all and some times it does not ring at all either. I have not changed any settings at all.

    My iphone just randomly stopped notifying me when I got an email, text or voicemail. Sometimes it will not even ring. I confirmed that the volume is turned on and I have not changed any settings at all. My software is up to date. In my job I need to know when I get an email without having to constantly activate the screen or open the email icon.
    Does anyone have any suggestions to fix this problem?

    First, is the Mute switch activated?
    Mute switch is above the volume buttons on the left side of iPhone.
    If you see red/orange color the the mute is ON.
    Also check Settings > Sounds > for New mail, Text Tone, etc.. have sound entries?
    If that's not the case try
    Reset: Hold down the Sleep/Wake button and the Home button at the same time for at least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears. Note: You will not lose any data

    I'm using a macbook pro, running snow leopard. Yesterday I got around to emptying my trash for the first time in quite awhile and was surprised by how much there seemed to be in there. Immediately after a question mark symbol appeared on all my hard disk folders. If I click on these question marks I get a message saying ' the item can't be found'.

    mpagan47 wrote: a question mark symbol appeared on all my hard disk folders.
    Not sure where these hard disk folders are located that you are referring to?  Finder, Finder tool bar, Finder side bar, Desktop, Dock? 
    More then likely they are  an alias that not longer point to the orginals,  thus the question mark.
    I would reboot.  Delete icons if an alias and just recreate by dragging from the source. Try right click (control) click to remove.

  • How can I set a 'default' watermark to appear on all my photos?

    I've started processing photos on my husband's computer, using his LR.  He passed away recently.  I've created a number of new catalogs, with probably 1000 photos.
    I just emailed some to family, and discovered that his watermark/copyright is on my pictures, which is not a good thing since he passed away.  
    What I would like to do is:
    1.  Change the watermark on those 1000 or so of my photos that are contained within 8 catalogs
    2.  Set up a default so that my watermark appears on all future photos.
    I've gone through the Watermark Editor and made my own custom setting, which shows in the list of custom settings.  My watermark then appears on the photo in the preview within the Watermark Editor window.  I hit 'done' and export the photo to my desktop, but my husband's watermark still appears on it.
    I've fiddled with this for a couple of hours and then looked for help online.  That's how I found your forum.
    Thank you for any assistance.

    G'day 5508,
    Some thoughts. Try System settings first (this may not be the culprit).
    System Preferences > Language and Region > Advanced > Currency > Australian Dollar
    I can only adjust the currency cell by cell, column by column page by page.
    Forgive my stupidity, but if the currency is a cell format in the template, can you select all currency cells at once, then change the currency? You will have to do this separately for each Table, but within a Table, you can select a range of cells. Quicker than cell by cell.
    Once you have reformatted the document that emerged from that template, save the document as a template with the same name to overwrite the old template.
    Hope this helps, mate.
    Regards,
    Ian.

  • IOS - iCal problem - Events appear as "all-day" whereas they shouldn't

    See below a conversation I had with a service provider.
    There is a bug in iOS when dealing with events in UTC times.
    Any solution to this?

    Hi,
    I noticed a small problem with a calendar to which I subscribed on my iphone.
    Events that are configured to last from 6.30pm to 7.30pm appears as Full-day events on iOs.
    Thank you for reporting this issue. We're aware that IOS sometimes
    misinterprets the iCal files we provide. It appears that it is reading
    the times properly (as seen in the event detail and grid views), but is
    mislabeling the events as all-day in the list view. Is this what you're
    seeing?
    Thank you
    Michael
    Exactly.
    In the event's details, times are OK, but in the listing, event appears as all-day.
    But why only for 6.30 to 7.30? When i change times to 5.30 to 6.30, it shows fine.
    It appears to be related to the interpretation of time-zone information. We provide the game times in UTC format and count on your device's calendar program to make the appropriate adjustments for the local time zone. When the provided UTC times span two days (e.g. 11:30pm - 12:30 am, before time zone adjustment), IOS seems to mislabel the event as "all-day".
    Thank you.

  • Background image from one slide appearing in all slides after and I can't remove it

    Hello,
    I'm modifying a course created with Captivate 5, in Captivate 7 and for some reason the background image from slide 35 is appearing in all slides after that one and I can't remove it. The most interesting thing is that when you look at the slides in the film strip they look different (like the original) than the one on the work area which contains the background image I'm trying to remove (screenshot below).
    Any ideas or comments?
    Thank you.
