Why are some Filters not available for some image files?

I noticed that the Lighting Effect filter under Render is not available for all of my image files (grayed out).
I perform a "Merge Visible" for all the layers, but still this filter and some others are grayed out on some images. Does the bit-depth matter (8 or 16-bit) or file type (.PSD or .TIFF)? Thanks.

Many filters don't work on 16-bit files.
Some of them are pretty ancient.

HT204411 Why are games & music not available for purchase from AppStore & iTunes for south Africa?

I get a cannot connect to ITunes error when trying to access iTunes store. Also I cannot doWnload certain games from AppStore. After searching I found out that these options are not available in South Africa. What would the reason be that certain countries don't have access to these options?

Hey ascott57. This is also disinformation. I have personally spoken to the head approver of games in the FPB in South Africa. The rating charge is only applicable for DISC-based games that are sold in stores, so that parents can identify the games for an age group and also for stores to know when not to sell a game. When a game is sold on a mobile system, it is automatically exempt from this rating system, as the selling platform has automatic parental guidance systems built-in.
There is NO reason why developers are not allowed to publish games to South Africa on the iTunes App Store or Mac App Store. This is Apple not having a section, so developers cannot even target that category, because it simply doesn't even exist.
I registered as a games developer for iOS and when I found out that if I develop games for iOS, I can't even publish it to my own country, I let my developer registration lapse on purpose in protest.

Why Lumia710 is "update not available" for "Taiwan...

I bought Lumia710 in Taiwan, I think Nokia also sold many 710 for Taiwan people.
But why Lumia710 is update not available for Taiwan users ?
We also need new features and further enhancements to the Nokia Lumia710 in Taiwan.
We waiting for
Latest Windows Phone operating system (Note. This is not WP 7.8 yet.)
Internet sharing (Wi-Fi Hotspot) — Share your phone's internet connection over Wi-Fi with up to five other devices or computers.
Flip to silence — Silence incoming calls by turning your phone face down.
Fix to prevent the volume of the ringtone temporarily increasing (Lumia 800 specific)
Download new apps from Marketplace, such as camera extras, including smart group shot and self-timer, Contacts share, and Play To, a DLNA app for showing your content wirelessly.
Usability and performance improvements.
Additionally Camera Extras (incl. smart group shots, panorama, action shots, etc.) will be available from the Marketplace plus other new imaging apps (like Citylens).
But just only Taiwan's Lumia710 users got update not available in Asia pacific.
It is mean : Latest version of software update will not be launched for this product code and/or country.
So anybody can answer me ? Tell me why ? Why without Taiwan users ?
Best Regards,
Kevin

Dear Kevinluh, Welcome to the Nokia Forums!
I understand your frustration, however update availability can vary depending on Region and carrier, this is because some regions and carriers may not have signed off the update or have policies preventing the update occuring.
We hope you understand, please get in touch with your local Nokia Care line for more information regarding the update.

Why is Mountain Lion not available for Mac Pro 2007???

Why is Mountain Lion not available for Macpro 2007 eventhough this computer is not having old generation hardware like of 15years ago's computers!! I am surprised to know about that. when this mac pro have 2 xeon processor, 8GB ram, OS 10.7.5 (Lion) etc etc. so why is this not compatible for mountain lion???
Very Sad for us - the buyer of so costly Macpro ....
so does the Apple want to say we should buy or upgrade our purchased costly apple products every 5 years ??!!

Why is the app not available for my device?

I've no problem using BT wifi on my device (Nook BNTV400) so why is the app not available for that device? It's not like the nook is proprietory, everything else I've tried to find in the play store works fine.
Is the apk available for download direct from bt?

if you can connect to btwifi without the app then I wouldn't bother trying to find the apk file
if you have an android smartphone then you can download the app and get the apk file to sideload on to your nook

Why are some images at a shopping web site not displaying?

images at JCPenny don't display when I'm shopping a particular item, click on it and the details come up. The photo of the item won't display, just the details. The small block icon at the top and bottom of where the photo would be is visible but the entire area where the item photo should display is blank.
I'm using Firefox 8.0.1

If images are missing then check that you aren't blocking images from some domains.
*You can inspect and manage all permissions on the about:permissions page, via the location bar.
*Check the permissions for the domain in the current tab in "Tools > Page Info > Permissions"
*Check that images are enabled: Tools > Options > Content: [X] Load images automatically
*Check the exceptions in "Tools > Options > Content: Load Images > Exceptions"
*Check the "Tools > Page Info > Media" tab for blocked images (scroll through all the images with the cursor Down key).
If an image in the list is grayed and there is a check-mark in the box "<i>Block Images from...</i>" then remove that mark to unblock the images from that domain.
Make sure that you do not block third-party images permissions.default.images

There are also extensions (Tools > Add-ons > Extensions) and security software (firewall, anti-virus) that can block images.

Filters not available for a file coming from Lightroom

Hi everyone,
And sorry for my poor english
I started to work with Lightroom and Photoshop CS5.5 some weeks ago to improve my pictures and my photographic workflow. Here is my problem :
- I import a RAW picture in Lightroom with DNG conversion, everything is fine in Lightroom.
- I want to edit the picture in Photoshop so I click "Edit in... Photoshop CS5", so that I'm editing a copy in PSD format. Camera RAW works fine.
- Once I'm in Photoshop with my .psd file, some filters (some default filters of Photoshop and also some external plug-ins) are not available (I cannot click on it in the filters menu) while others work like a charm.
Is it normal?
If it is, why?
If it is not, what should I do to get rid of the problem?
Thanks for your attention
<LeToC>

I spent hours to find the answer to this question... and you just made my day!
I tried with a jpeg file as I have not my RAW files with me right now and it seems you're right. I'll try with my RAW files as soon as possible just to check and let you know.
Do you know if these upgrades are planned? 16 bits is quite a good improvement and I like to play with some of the stupid toys like "pixelate" or "texturize"
Anyway, thanks a lot for this !

Why are certains applications not available in South African App Store?

Why are certain applications such as Google Earth, Google Mobile App, and most games not available in the South African App Store.
We speak English so localisation should not be a problem.
I'm sure there are no legal reasons why these applications are not available here, as we have desktop equivalents for most of them.
Why does South Africa have to have a diminished iPhone experience?

No idea.
You would have to ask Apple and/or the company that makes the app and/or - most likely - the Government of your country.
I'm sure Apple and the app developer would love to sell more apps.
Since this is a user forum, made up of iphone users, like you - there is nothing we can do about it.
Sorry.

Why is Edit Delete not available for audiobooks

I cannot delete audiobooks on my iPod Classic, Delete is grayed out for books but not for music. Delete is available for books on my iPod Nano. Is there a setting that would account for the difference?
If you use the Restore function does it erase all files? The warning box "All of your media and other data will be erased." sounds ominous, what does it really mean?

Why are some PDF files created in Photoshop not placing in InDesign CS5?

We are publishers and have used InDesign for over 9 years to create 36+ magazine issues per year. We are currently using CS5 on 8 MAC stations using OS X Vers 10.8.5. We are experiencing difficulty placing some supplied PDF files into InDesign documents lately. We get the following error message when placing the offending PDF file: "FAILED TO OPEN PDF FILE"
This is a new error message that has cropped up the last two months or so. In Acrobat, the file will pre-flight without errors. The files giving us the errors can be converted to Photoshop PSD, EPS or TIFF files and will place just fine. Photoshop PDF files, however, will result in the error.
Can anyone give me an idea what might be causing this issue? Thanks in advance!

Try showing options when placing. Sounds like something in the PDF is not compatible with the last settings you used.
Most likely the crop options.

Why are some "caf" files colored green and some blue. I need to change the blue (audio) file to a green one so that I can print the sheet music.

I've been trying for days to convert blue audio files (caf in garageband) to green files, so that I can print out the sheet music for that file. I've converted the "caf" file to mp3, wav, aiff, even midi - but nothing will load in garageband as a green file. I get them to load as blue audio files but not as green files. I know the difference between the blue and green files, but why do they both have "caf" extensions? I am trying to conver "piano ballad.caf" to something that will show up as a green caf in garageband. I can't believe there isn't someone who has been successful at doing this sort of thing.

Thank you, that was helpful, it has given me some avenues to explore. I have not used a command prompt for about a decade!
The command chflags hidden /volumes/HomeShare does not seem to have worked.
When I use it, there is no error message but I cannot see anything additional in the other computer.
When I use chflags hidden /volumes/HomeShare/rubbish I see an error message about the folder not existing (which it does not!) so the path is correct.
When I use chflags hidden /volumes/HomeShare/MBP naming a folder that does exist and was created by this computer/user, it seems to have no effect either.
Looking at one source of OS X command line commands (http://ss64.com/osx/) I see that 'setfile' might do the trick (setfile v /volumes/Homeshare/MBP) but that command returns 'command not found'. It is apparently part of 'developer tools' ... which I do not have access to (AFAIK).
In both cases, would the commands work on existing files only, or would new files be visible, or even files copied into this space? Presumably, each person saving to this area would need to then give access via terminal (or a script). Am I right in this thinking? If so, how would I modify the properties of the drive so that they are the same as, for example, a memory stick?
