Why is my color picker not showing up in the gradient panel?

When I try to change the colors to a gradient I am not able to change the selected color.
When I double click on the color slider I want to change, the pop up panel gives me grayed out CMYK sliders. And all of the fill and stroke icons go dark and display questions marks ????.
When I click on the swatch button no swatch colors appear in the panel.
Am I missing something obvious here? I haven't had this issue before today. I am running the latest version of CC on a windows 7 64 bit machine.  Please help! I need my gradients! I can't live with out them!

I drew my shape, then went to the GRADIENT panel and clicked in the default gradient box to apply the default white to black gradient.  Normally you can click on either color to change it using the ways I described in my original post but those are not available to me.  The only way I could add a color was to drag it from the SWATCHES panel into the gradient colors slider.
This means that I cannot make changes to colors directly in the gradient panel like before.  I have to make changes to the individual colors but clicking on the color in the gradient slider then going to the COLOR panel and adjusting the color there. Or by dragging in a whole new color from the COLOR or SWATCHES panels.  This is really killing my work flow.

  • Why is my iPad is not showing up in the Devices list in iBook Author?

    Why is my iPad not showing up in the Devices list in iBook Author? iBook ver is up to date. iTunes sees the iPad. What gives...
    Message was edited by: drydruid

    OK, the problem is partly solved. iBooks Author is not 'smart' enough to realize the iPad had been plugged-in and iBook on if all that happens after iBooks Author is already started. On the off chance that that was the problem I Quit iBA, made sure the iPad was connected and iBook was on then restarted iBA. Sure enough, there it was.
    I really like Mac's but sometimes they're not as smart as they think they are.

  • Why is my application name not showing up in the SQL Server connection properties?

    If I understand correctly I should be able to have the application name from application.cfc show up in my SQL Server connection string (i.e. in the program_name column of sp_who2) if I go in to the DSN advanced settings and check "Application Name" under Client Settings.
    However having done that I still don't see anything in the program name columns of the sp_who2 result set. Any ideas?
    Thanks!

  • Why my sent emails are not showing up in the sent box

    The emails I'm sending are not showing up in my sent box. Why is this happening? 

    - Did they show before?
    - Are you sending from the mail app?
    - Try sending from another account.
    - Try a reset. Nothing will be lost.

  • Why don't my WORD files show up in the LINKS panel?

    Sometimes my text files don't link when I place them. Why?

    Since you can edit and create text in InDesign, but you can’t edit or create imported art, text links are treated differently than graphic links. By default they do not show as links in the Links panel. Go to File > Preferences > File Handling and turn on Create Links When Placing Text and Spreadsheet Files. Now future placed text files will show in the Links panel. The only way to get already placed files to show is to place them again.

  • Lumetri looks NOT showing up in the effects panel

    When I open my effects panel I can see the Folder "Lumetri Looks" at the bottom of the list.
    But it is empty. A few updates before I could see several default looks in that list.
    Can anyone help to get those Lumetri Looks back into the effects list?
    I found an answer to a similar question explaining how to reset Premiere by holding "Option" + "Shift" while starting the program. On my Windows PC that would be ALT + Shift. But it did not help.

    I thought there were a couple different ways to get Lumitri in Premiere
    i use the Lumitri that is empty to guide me into my custom made LOOKS from SpeedGrade
    i thought there was another Lumitri bin in the effects panel where you can choose the 'already made'
    i never go there, as I only go to
    Effects
    color correction
    lumitri
    the regular Lumitri is not in Color Correction. It has its own folder I think.
    Is it the 'custom' Lumitri where you are looking and not the Lumitri lower in the bin stack? Yes, you did say at the bottom is where you are looking - sorry me bad
    sorry, not at my machine

  • Why are my mobileme galleries not showing up in the mobileme widget?

    I've got this to work in the past. A few weeks back I deleted and/or changed most of my mobileme galleries. They are there, work fine, ect but in iWeb I cannot get them to show in the drop down menu for the widget!
    Is this due to any ilife '11 upgrades or such?
    Also...is there functionality to add screenshots to post here? I'm not seeing it!

    Try the following:
    1 - go to the System/MobileMe preference pane and log out of MMe.
    2 - login with a bogus username and password like "test" and "test". This clears the caches.
    3 - login with your correct username and password.
    4 - launch iWeb and try again.
    It happens every so often. More a server issue than an iWeb one.

  • Hey all! I'm wondering why my podcast image is not showing up in the itunes store.

    my feed is http://thealexsteinpodcast.andyerikson.com/feed/
    thanks

    Your image is correctly referenced in the feed, is the right size, and is present on the server.
    The Store can be quite slow to show a new image, and sometimes it seems to get stick and can take quite some days - or even weeks. I'm afraid there isn't really anything you can do about it except wait for the Store to catch up/

  • Color swatch ONLY shows gray shades on gradient layer...?

    My color swatch seems to be defaulting to only shades of gray on a gradient layer, and I simply cannot figure out how to get it to change to the color I have selected.  After I create a new gradient fill layer, when I have the layer selected in the list of layers on the right side of the screen, the color swatches show ONLY gray.  If I click on the swatch, it brings up the color picker, but no matter what color I select, the swatch shows shades of gray.  If I select the background layer, it goes back to showing my color.
    There is probably a simple explanation to this problem but I have been searching Google for literally hours without finding an answer.  Other similar questions I have found have the response of "Go to Image, Mode, and make sure RGB is selected."  Mine is already set to RGB, so that's not the issue.
    How do I change the colors of a gradient fill layer, and why does my color swatch show only gray shades when I have the gradient fill layer selected, even though clicking the swatch brings up the color picker?

    To change/edit the gradient color(s), double click on the Gradient Fill thumbnail in the layers panel
    Then in the Gradient Fill dialog, click just to the right of the word gradient to edit the colors
    In the gradient editor, click on one of the color stops at the bottom of the gradient bar and click on Color to change the color of that stop
    There is a lot more to the gradient editor than room to explain on the forum, so you might check out the following to learn more

    The reason your color keeps showing as grayscale, is the layer mask is always active with adjustments layers in photoshop elements and layer masks are grayscale

    I have 100's of CDs that I have downloaded to my itunes library and they are in the library playable but they do not show up in the C drive under the iTunes Music folder under users.  Why are they in the libary and not in the itunes music folder. Win 7 OS.  When I look in the library under the get info screen it says they are in the folder itunes music, under the c: drive but when I actually go to that folder to look for them they are not there....HELP!

    Hello RumDog,
    I think this article will help you find the media in your library.

    Discovering and changing the iTunes Media folder location
    Note: You would usually only change the iTunes Media folder location to share music between accounts on the same computer. See this article for specific steps on how to accomplish this. Also, see this article if you want to know how to move your music to a new computer.
    Mac OS X: Click the iTunes menu and choose Preferences.
    Windows: Click the Edit menu and choose Preferences.
    Click the Advanced pane. iTunes displays the location of your iTunes Media folder.
    You can then:
    Note where your media folder is, such as for backing up your media.
    Use the Reset button to reset it's location to the default (which is the iTunes folder).
    Click the Change button to select a folder for a new location. Once you change this location:
    If you make a new or alternate iTunes library, the new location will be used by that library.
    Existing files will not be moved unless you choose File > Library > Organize library and choose the option to "Consolidate files."

  • HT1451 Why do the song names and cd name not show up on the IPod Shuffle?

    Err this is no longer April 1st you know.
    The iPod Shuffle has never had a 'display' on which track names can be shown. See http://www.apple.com/ipod-shuffle/ if you want an iPod which does have a display on which you can see the tracks names and even the album cover art then look instead at the bigger and more expensive iPod Nano http://www.apple.com/ipod-nano/ or iPod Touch http://www.apple.com/ipod-touch/
    PS. The current iPod Shuffle even though it has no display on which it can show the track names can read them out loud to you using a voice-synthesiser this is the VoiceOver feature described on the iPod Shuffle product page I listed above.

  • Why some photos do not show up in the widgets after final export?

    Why do I have a problem with the FeatureD News Widget not showing all my photos? I have tried redoing it many times over in different formats and all but one photo never shows up in the final export. Please I need help to finish up the website.

    If I understand this correctly, you are reporting that you have images in your Featured News' target frames and some of those photos do not show up in the published site.
    If so, I would like you to confirm if the widget works fine in Preview within Muse? Are the images missing in all browsers, even after clearing the browser cache? Can you provide a link to a published site? If required I may also request your source Muse file to investigate further.
    Thanks,
