After I jumped through the necessary hoops I was able to re-install CS2. It worked OK for a while, but now I find that the nested tools in the toolbox are unavailable.
the brush, stamp brush and eraser tools are giving me a hard time the actual working area from the tool is so much smaller than the outside frame of it URL....
i'm using cs6.the picture i'm working with was enlarged to 400%.the brush, stamp brush tool was at size: 12px, hardness 100%.opacity 100%

in the presettings i saw the brush was set to normal size.also i played with the jitter sizes, to no avail.
Am using Photoshop CS6 on iMac 27inch with Mountain Lion. Experiencing inability to use the move tool to place one image on another after extraction. I place the move tool on the previously extracted image and drag it into an new image, but the extracted image does not get placed on the new image. Also, cursor disappears frequently when using Photoshop for extended periods of time.

Also the tools freeze quite often and won't come back until I touch the desktop. Then PS plays catch up doing every click or hit I happen to hit in frustration. Reinstalled it twice from a clean install. This is not a release ready product. BTW I have been using PS since 1994 to color comic books and with photography.

I am using Illustrator CS5.1 on a iMac, I am working on 10.9 Mavericks, and now the crosshair/cursor/ various tools have almost dissappeared to a /faint grey in tint, will I have to wait for a fix from Adobe or Apple or is there something in preferences I can click to solve issue?

I Have already reported this 'Bug' via Adobe website.

I have to keep pressing my nose against the screen and squint my eyes to see where I am drawing and designing, it's not a pretty sight.
I just put in a new Radeon 5770 card (PCI slot 1) into my Mac Pro 2008 Quad Core which is running Photoshop CS3. Now, the cursor (on all tools) disappears when mousing over any open PDS document. In Indesign, the cursor for all tools shows and works - as well as other pragrams.Â

When I retouch skins with the clone brush and I have to draw on medium tones with a small brush I easily lose the visibility of the cursor.
Â
Over dark and bright tones the contrast of the cursor with the skin is high and i don't have problems.I tried to change the cursor's preferences but it didn't work, so i ask if there are some tricks like this:
Â
change the threshold of switching black/white cursor to a brighter value, i think it switches near 50% of color Brightness, if i could change that value near 30% my problem is over.
looking at the aspect of the cursor i see that is built with a white dominant and a black outline and viceversa black dominant and white outline, it could be a 3 lines profile?
I am seeing a double brush cursor in CS5; why? and how do I get rid of it?
Â
It's not the clone tool, it's the brush.When I resize my brush to a certain size (different sizes for different images) a duplicate brush suddenly appears in the top left corner of my screen and resizes with the brush as I resize it up and down.
Â
Also, if I zoom into my image, suddenly the duplicate brush will appear in the top left of my screen with the same behaviour.Different images behave differently but it appears to be once I get to a certain size on any image this duplicate brush cursor appears top left of screen and makes it very difficult for me to access menu and tool options.
I recently discovered why I've been having trouble with precise drawing with my tablet, I keep losing track of the brush cursor, that circle is just too small, same for "precise" brush cursor (cross). I tried the standard brush cursor and it was much better but it lacked precision of telling where the stroke will start.
Â
Is there any way to customize the brush cursor, ie. add a mouse pointer/brush icon to that small circle like it's in PaintTools SAI?
I recently installed Photoshop CS4 and find the brush cursor faulty. Only a portion of the cursor shows up. With a small brush most of the cursor shows. With a large brush only a small segment in the upper left shows. Anybody else have this problem? Anybody have a solution?

The PAINTING CURSOR is set to BRUSH SIZE, and when I have the BRUSH selected, and press the ] key to enlarge the brush size on the fly (to ensure it's just not a small brush), it stays as what seems to be a PRECISE cursor.
Sure enough, when I apply the brush, the size is huge, but the cursor is not the size of the brush like I want. I even increased the HARDNESS value to 100%, and it acts the same way.
The most recent versions of the nVidia Quadro 4800 and Geforce 9800 drivers fix the issue where large (~120 px) brush cursors disappear or fragment in Photoshop CS4. Version 186.30 of the Quadro drivers, released July 13, 2009Version 190.38 of the Geforce drivers, released July 21, 2009 Please see Knowledgebase document kb407708 for further information.
View 4 Replies View RelatedI just downloaded the CS3 beta, which is awesome, since I'm using a MacBook and CS was slow.
I have noticed something very peculiar and annoying, however: when I use the paintbrush tool, the cursor disappears when I hover the cursor over the canvas. This makes it almost impossible to use my brand new Graphire pad.
It used to be in Gimp 2.8.8 for Mac I would see the preview of the brush as the cursor so I could judge what the size was going to be now in 2.8.10 Mac (running Mavericks).
I have no preview. Just an cross hair and the brush icon. So I have to blindly guess the size of the brush. Is there a way to get this back?
I have noticed in the last few days that my Lightroom 5 (CC) is failing to quit. I run it on a mac with the latest OS. I have to force quit the program.

View 11 Replies View RelatedWhen painting with the paintbrush the cursor flickers between the round brush size cursor to an arrowhead. The paintbrush continues painting as it should, but the cursor flickers constantly between the 2. This is a visual annoyance but doesn't seem to affect performance.Â
I'm on Photoshop CS6 (latest updates) on 2008 Mac Pro 3,1 with OS X 10.6.8.
I use iMac i7 with lion 10.7.5..After a "considerable" amount of editing, photoshop just stops responding. For example, the paint brush cursor will move but no paint can be applied. Have about 10-12 layers, guessing abour 70 history steps.

Must exit the app and restart, at which time it will behave normally. I use latest, almost, OS and have 8GB ram.
I have a really annoying problem when trying to use brushes. It existed in CS3 and is still there in CS4.
Whenever I make the brush diameter somewhat large, for instance above 100px, it begins to crop the brush outline so it only shows a small portion of it. If I make it large enough, ~500px, there's nothing left. Even if I have show crosshair enabled, the crosshair is cropped away.
I get 'preview unavailable for this file' when attempting to import files from my Panasonic Lumix DMC LX3 - even though the same images show up fine on import preview for Lightroom 3?

I have Lightroom 3 AND 4 on my machine at the minute, running OSX Lion on Mac, and if I have the same card in the same card reader - I see soem unimported file previews with 3, but not with 4! What the hell - older version seems to work better than the new one!!
I'm new to lightroom and currently have the trial of lightroom 4. If I attempt to import directly from either my 5D Mark II or my iphone I get only a few images show up, the rest have a "preview unavailable" message.I can upload these through bridge just fine... I would just like to bypass that step.
View 1 Replies View RelatedI have imported thousands of photos into LR4 without a problem but today I hit a problem. I have converted a number of PDF documents into JPEGs as I wanted them to be available to view via LR. I receive the message that 'Preview is unavailable for this file' and then 'Failed to find a place for the imported file'. The JPEGs are stored on an external drive. When I try the same thing in Aperture the JPEGs load into Aperture without a problem.
View 3 Replies View RelatedI have just loaded photoshop CS4 as part of the master collection. When I use any of the brush, dodge, burn or other similar tools the brush starts to disappear as I enlarge it eventually disappearing. Even though this happens the tool still works even though most of the circle around the brush area is missing.
View 3 Replies View RelatedMy Photoshop brush, pencil and Clone strokes are smaller than the cursor, which makes it very difficult for accuracy. Don't know what made them change, but want the cursor and stroke to be the same.Â
I've tried different settings in the brush dialog box, with difference tip settings, etc, with no results. Also, tried different settings in Preferences / Cursor setting.
