Windows 8? Well known Windows bug that hasn't been fixed yet.
Go update your video card driver from the GPU maker's website, or set the Photoshop GPU mode to Basic.

Why can't I find the pen tool in the tryout version of Illustrator CC?

No clue. You've provided nearly no information.
What happens when you tap the P key on the keyboard?

Why do arrow heads change ends when using the pen tool?

1. I create a horizontal line
2. I change it to a right ended arrow head selected from my own graphic styles
3. I then want to extend the left side ( non arrow end) with the pen tool
4. I click the non arrow end to extend the line in a vertical direction
5. The atrrow head changes to the other end
Why?

Illustrator's arrowheads don't know right from left, they only know start from finish. Each open path in Illustrator has a beginning and an end. When you use the pen to extend a path you make the end you work from the end, even if it was once the beginning. Deselect the path, then click on the other end with the pen tool to restore the path direction.
If all you are doing is making the path longer I'd would be better to just move the end point.

Make Selection Pen Tool Issue

Thanks for reading first of all.
I know and love the pen tool and have used it for a long time now but suddenly today something is awry. When I outline the part of the image I want and choose make selection it selects everything BUT what I have a path around. This is driving me batty. I tried changing various options in paths and the pen tool but I just can't seem to find out what is suddenly making it do this.
I'm using CS4.
Thanks for any and all responses for you will be helping me not pull my hair out any further.

That worked, thank you.
Now my only question is why it is suddenly inversing my selections to begin with? Is there an option I accidentally turned on with a hot key? This is a brand new thing happening here when I choose make selection. I mean, it wasn't doing it yesterday.
Anyways, thanks for the quick reply, my hair is now safe again for the time being.

FW CS4 crashes when using the pen tool for many points

Good morning,
Every time I try to create a mask with the pen tool that
requires a good
amount of points, FW crashes. I've had this happen with CS3
as well, but
with CS4 , it crashes with many less points than CS3 - has
any one
experienced this, and more to the point, any solutions?
Aloha,
Jerry

I'm optimistic too. I think it will start to sort itself out
when Intel's
new 24-Core 128-bit processors hit the market in conjunction
with Windows 8

How do I stop the hidden tools from being shown when I select a tool?

Every time I wish to select a tool in Photoshop CS6, the hidden tools beneath that tool always show. Whether I do this with my mouse, or the graphics tablet, the same issue occurs. I'm certain that one click should select the visible tool, and that holding down the cursor should display the hidden tools. Is there a way to make certain that the hidden tools stay hidden? I'm using Mac OS X Mavericks, if that helps.

The ONLY way I can get that behavior from a single click is to hold the Ctrl key.
When you hover over a tool preset, do you see the menu added to the cursor?

After Effects CS6 11.0.2 crashes when using the pen tool (Mac OS X 10.8.2)

I'm using After Effects CS6 11.0.2 on Mac OS X 10.8.2. Whenever I use the pen tool to add a vertex, the application crashes. I've submitted several crash reports to apple (they get sent to apple automatically when the app relaunches).
My specs:
iMac
21.5-inch, Mid 2010
Processor 3.06 GHz Intel Core i3
Memory 12 GB 1333 MHz DDR3
Graphics ATI Radeon HD 4670 256 MB
Software OS X 10.8.2 (12C60)
Anybody else having this problem or have a solution?

So I have discovered it only crashes when adding a vertex when I'm editing the max a few frames in. When I add vertices on the first frame of the comp I don't have any trouble. I've tried unchecking the box that says preserve constant vertex count, and it still happens.

Why can't I see the pen tool?

Hi - I'm using the latest Adobe Premiere Pro but when applying a mask I have the option of the ellipse or the 4 point polygon, but no pen tool...any idea why?

You sure you have the latest version?

Very difficult to see paths when working with pen tool - Mac

Photoshop CS5 - Working with the pen tool is something I do a lot but it is such a pain because I can barely make the lines out sometimes. It can get so bad that my eyes hurt. I found some advice about adding an adjustment layer and changing the level. This kind of works but I find it difficult to believe that they can't be made more visable. Turning off the anti-aliasing hasn't seemed to have made any difference either.
Is CS6 any better?
Thanks

I cannot understand why Photoshop is at version 13.x and there isn't a control for the user to adjust the path colour and brightness.
The thread does not address the whole issue but explains why the bahaviour changed on Mac:

This usually means that you have some corrupt fonts, or that the OS font cache is corrupt.

Don't shade area when using the pen Tool?

When I use the Pen tool the whole area beneath the curve is shaded. Is it possible to only draw a curve and not shade the area?

blop,
At the bottom of the Toolbox, change Fill to None.

In Preview, the simple line annotation seems to have been removed. When I select the tool, there is an arrow annotation instead of the simple line earlier.

The simple line annotation in the Preview Application seems to have been replaced rather oddly by an arrow. I wish to use the simple line in a PDF document without an arrow at the end. Its a very important annotation that I use very frequently.

Choose line width at the top of this pull-down in the Annotate tools. Choose simple lines, right, left or two-way arrows at the bottom of the pull-down...

Why round corners when I use marquee tool?

I use Photoshop 7.0, but hope someone can help me even though it's old.
I use the marquee tool frequently. It always used to have straight corners, but the past week it has started to automatically do round corners. I haven't changed any settings. Why does this happen?
I can mention that I use InDesign CS2. I have worked a lot with rectangles with round corners there recently, but every time changed the corners manually. After a couple of weeks though the program started to automatically change every rectangle to round corners. I didn't know how to change this, but after a couple of weeks it went back to straight corners automatically.
I use Windows Vista. Initially there was some problems to make it go with Photoshop and InDesign, but now it works fine most of the time.

Amazing though that when I called the Swedish support, the guy just laughed because of my old version and said he was unable to help.. I explained my problem anyway, since I thought it can't be that different between versions, but NO. He was not interested in helping me.. Makes me wonder how some people can keep their jobs..
It's because of him that we are here!
We are the real support!

Why is it when I select my personal preferences/user/login items, that when i select the check box for items to NOT pop up on my dock when i restart and start my macbook air 11 inch that they still continue to?

why is it that every time i start up my macbook air and when i restart it, that the new office with word and those three other apps constantly pop up? even though i went to personal preferences/users/login items, and selected the box that clearly says "items to NOT be brought up when logging in" ?
