Where is the protect/erase brush in recompose.

I followed the directions in guided mode in "recompose" to protect/remove. All I get is the little cross hair curser. Is there suppose to be a virtual "brush" like the directions speak about? I am using the supposedly "fully functional trial" version of Photoshop elements 11.

Did you adjust the brush size to see if the cross-hair turns into a circle?
Also, check that your Caps Lock is not on.

Where is the spot healing brush?

Hello Everyone,
I've been a Lightroom user for a couple of years now but very new to photoshop. Still figuring out all the cool stuff this program has to offer. I want to use the spot healing brush to touch up a few images but I'm not able to locate it in Photoshop CS5. I've looked in what I thought were the most logical places, looked thorugh the documentation and did some searching online but I haven't yet found the icon/function I'm looking for. I do see the healing brush and I have been able to use the content-aware fill function successfully
The format of the working image (raw, jpeg) seems to make no difference. I read online that the spot healing brush only works with jpeg images. Is this true? I was able to use content aware fill on a raw image.
Here's a screenshot showing all the tools and the various tool presets. I'm running CS5 version 12.0.4 x64 on Windows 7. Would appreciate it if someone can let me know what I'm missing here?
Thanks,
Dini

The spot healing brush is located in the same tool slot as the healing brush, just
click and hold on the healing brush icon in the tool box to see the hidden tools.
As far as i know the spot healing brush works on most other images besides jpegs, so
no it's not true that the spot healing brush only works on jpegs.

Where is the "Selection Brush" in CC?

Elements 11 has the "Quick Selection", "Magic Wand" and "Selection Brush" for selecting areas in the image. CC only has "Quick Selection" and "Magic Wand". Where is the "Selection Brush". I'm sure its there somewhere, but I can't figure it out.
TIA
Mike

Hi,
The Selection Brush Tool is only in photoshop elements.
In photoshop Quick Mask would be what to use in place of the Selection Brush Tool
(similar to using the Selection Brush in the Mask mode)

Where are the bristle brushes in PS CC 2014?

According to documentation PS CC has bristle brushes, but I can not find any brushes labeled such and no interface items to manipulate them as shown in the adobe-tv video: Working with the new bristle brush tips | Visual Design CS5 | Adobe TV
Do these exist? Where are they? And where are the controls described in the video? (which seems to be for PS CS5 btw)

on my system there are several default bristle tip brushes with small brush icons: flat point, flat blunt ... etc.
upon opening the brush panel for any of those with the brush icon, you can select from 10 different bristle qualities shapes.
if you don't have these default brushes, might try resetting the brushes (right click down arrow on tools icon on menu bar)

Where are the brushes stored other than presets brushes

I have installed an abundance of brushes usually by double clickling from the download folder, and now I want to back them up. I have ran .abr spotlight searches and found nothing; they are also not in the photoshop > presets > brushes folder. Only the stock brushes are in there. Where can they be??
I'm on mac osx by the way. Thank you!

I did some of my own research on this, and found this useful link:

Follow these instructions to install brush sets:
1. Download or move the .ABR file to a permanent location on your computer. This could be into the Photoshop Brushes folder (full paths below) or a central location you create for Photoshop brushes. To place it in Photoshop’s existing brush folder, move or copy the .ABR file to:
Windows: C:\Program Files\Adobe\Adobe Photoshop CSx\Presets\Brushes\
Mac OSX: Applications/Adobe Photoshop CSx/Presets/Brushes/
2. Open Photoshop and select the Brush tool.
3. On the Options bar, click the down arrow beside the brush shape preview. This will open the controls for brushes.
4. From the brush control popup, click the right-facing arrow in the top right corner and select Load Brushes or Replace Brushes.
5. When the Load Brushes dialog appears, navigate to the location where you placed the .ABR file and then open that file.
6. If you chose the Replace Brushes command, Photoshop will remove any existing brushes from the Brushes palette, leaving you with only the newly loaded set. However, if you chose the Load Brushes command, Photoshop will add the new brush set to the end of the list of brushes.
7. Start brushing!

You can only update to the latest iOS which currently is iOS 5.1.1.
Connect your iPad to your computer and follow the prompts. If iTunes is not the latest version then you will be prompted to update that first. The same will then apply to your iPad. It will automatically do a backup unless you tell it otherwise and y will be prompted to restore from that backp in the latter part of the process.

Where is the background and magic eraser tool in photoshop cc?

In photoshop cc, when I choose to use eraser, I do not see the background or magic eraser tool options I see in videos, why? I am trying to learn to crop a face out of one picture and put it in another, and can't get what I need to do it. Is there a manual for photoshop cc?Thanks

Just hold down the mouse botton on the eraser tool for the pop up to show the background eraser tool. or shift+e repeatedly until the tool you want appears. This keyboard shortcut will switch between the multiple eraser tools in that popup menu. Once it is visible you can get back to that tool by using the e key by itself or clicking on it.
That said the background eraser tool is not required, it just makes it a bit easier. The normal eraser tool can erase the background if the background layer is unlocked. (assuming that is the layer you are working on) To unlock that layer just drag the padlock to the trashcan, or double click on that layer where you can name the layer if you choose and click ok.

Where is the Eraser Tool

Where is the Eraser Tool in Elements 11? I have been using an older version that has an eraser. I can't seem to find it in Elements 11. The Scratches and Blemishes tools seem to be very difficult to use and confusing.

Press E on the keyboard to see all three choices in the bottom tool options. You should see eraser, background eraser and magic extractor tools.

Where is the splatter brush in ps 5 extended?

where is the splatter brush in ps 5 extended?

Hi and welcome to the forum.
The Splatter brush is part of Photoshop's default brush set, so if you don't see it in the Brush library, just return to the default set by selecting the Brush tool and choosing Reset Brushes.

Where's the Desaturate brush gone?

Hi, in Ap2 I often used to use the desaturate brush to reduce how much background objects would stand out but now I've upgraded to Ap3 I can only find a saturate quickbrush.
Even if I turn the strength of this right down it doesn't have the affect of removing the colour like the old desaturate brush.
Am I looking in the wrong place, is it still there somewhere?
Thanks,
Dave

Go the the Enhance adjustment brick.
Take the Saturation slider down to the level you want.
Go the to the cogwheel button and choose 'Brush Enhance In'.
This will take the adjustment away and give you a brush where you can brush in the desaturated effect.
Unlike the desaturate brush in the old dodge & burn plug-in you can go back and tweak the settings at any time.

Using K7T266 Pro2, Where is the BIOS Protection?

I am using K7T266 Pro2 (MS-6380 v2.0) with BIOS update 3.70. I was reading the manual and suddenly I found a interesting function “BIOS Protection”, quote from manual:
Quote
This function protects the BIOS from accidental corruption by unauthorized users or computer viruses. When enabled, the BIOS’ data cannot be changed when attempting to update the BIOS with a Flash utility. To successfully update the BIOS, you’ll need to disable this Flash BIOS
This is a really useful function but the problem is that I cannot find it! According to the manual it should be in the Advanced Chipset Features section, below the “PCI Delay Transaction” function. But when I go to my BIOS setup there is nothing below the “PCI Delay Transaction” function. And so I ask my self “where is the BIOS Protection feature?”, I checked threw all the other sections but I could not find it… Please help me, where is this function? Doesn't it include in the new BIOS update 3.70? Is anyone experiencing the same problem?

But why haven't they included the BIOS protection feature in the newer updates? It's not like it would demand more programming becouse it already works for ther older BIOS version. And the feature is really great for protection agains BIOS killing viruses! so whats the harm of including a great feature that already includes in the older version? I guess that many don't have the answer, but If you don't do you have any suggestions of why MSI didn't include this feature in the newer BIOS version?

DIsk Utility fail: Where are the "temporary back up files" ?

I was running out of space on my hard drive, so i freed up 50G by backing up and then deleting some photo and video files. I thought, like on a PC, i could run the disk utility to "erase free space" (and possible give me even more free G's) but it got stuck near the end, saying there was no longer enough disc space to continue. I deleted some more files, but it didn't help. Now my hard drive is COMPLETELY FULL (when I use inspector, it literally says "Available: Zero KB"). I think disk utility was making a temporary backup file, and that's what used up all of my free space (although I might be wrong), and sinbce it didnt finish the job, the files are still on the computer taking up unnecessary space. But now i have no idea where all of those files are! Where should they be stored? I need to free up some space ASAP! I'm a Graphic Designer, and I need this computer for work, asap.
Is there perhaps a free program that will show me a full look at my HD space, and say which files are taking up the most space, so that I can delete -or back up- accordingly? Or maybe one that will delete unnecessary cached files or something.... I'm in panic mode!
Thank you so much in advance for your time and help!

This is serious greek. Can you explain what I should do with this information, please?
Sorry, I hadn't looked at that in a while.
Open the Terminal app (in your Applications/Utilities folder). Be *very careful* with this app. It's a direct link into UNIX, the underpinnings of OSX, but without the protections of OSX.
In Terminal, the prompt looks like this: user-xxxxxx:~ <your name>$
(where <your name> is your short user name). It's followed by a non-blinking block cursor.
Copy the following after the prompt:
sudo rm -f /var/root/Library/Caches/TemporaryItems/*
and press Return. It should then ask for your Admin password (which won't be displayed). Press Return again.
There may or may not be any messages displayed; you'll know it's done when you see the prompt again.

Photoshop CC video: Where is the audio flyout menu? I want to set the audio level of a clip but when I click the little triangle the flyout only offers Motion options, no audio.

I created a video clip by ripping from a (non-protected) DVD & brought it into Photoshop CC for editing. I want the audio to fade in & out but cannot find any audio controls!
The info I've found online says to click the little triangle at the right end of the clip & I should get the audio flyout menu, but all I get is a menu with "Motion" options.
Please help!! Where are the audio options I see on the tutorials?
Thanks ...

The audio was indeed in there; I could hear it! But I found the fix:
Some Googling revealed that the timeline video sprites should appear *blue*, not purple as in my screenshot. I'm not sure how that happened, but I scrapped the project & restarted from scratch - and though I can't say what I did differently, this time the video sprite in the timeline was blue, and the audio flyout was there! So it's all good, thanks!
