Cannot copy image/layer...greyed

Howdy all,

With the help of Ps CS5. I have a number of icons (see photo), but can not copy an any of them. Edition > copy is grayed out (see photo). If I right click on the icon I want to copy, it doesn't show me the names of the other icons on the scene layer. These icons can be protected? It's a file .psd on my desk

Any ideas?

Thanks for your help!

You got this error message because it is not anything in your selection in the active layer correctly, make sure the layer containing the stop signal is selected in the Panel layers, and then try again.

  • Cannot copy images from any type of disc. ??

    Cannot copy pictures on any type of disc. the computer behaves as if she is unable to format the drive? I thought that this was done automatically.

    Hello

    ·        What is the exact error that you are experiencing when you try to burn the disk?

    ·        Outside photos, you are able to burn other files on the disk?

    ·        You use any burning software to burn the photos to disk?

    Note: Using third-party software, including hardware drivers can cause serious problems that may prevent your computer from starting properly. Microsoft cannot guarantee that problems resulting from the use of third-party software can be solved. Software using third party is at your own risk.

    I suggest to format the drive and check if you are able to burn discs or not. Follow the steps mentioned below.

    a. be aware that Windows XP, in its native form, does not directly support CD formatting. Formatting a CD requires support for the ISO images that is missing from Windows XP.

    b. download or buy CD and formatting of third-party burning software. Third-party CD utilities include features like CD burning, imaging of CD and the CD put fit.

    c. install the third-party software, following specific instructions in accordance with the software documentation. Many programs will require you to restart Windows to complete the installation. Close all other applications and do it.

    d. place the disk you want to format in the drawer. Make sure that it is in the drawer of CD - R or CD - R/W and not another tray (tray of DVD) or a simple CD player.

    e. start the third-party application and follow the instructions on the screen as they appear. Choose the "Format CD" option on the file menu, or choose 'Create a new CD.' This application controls tend to vary an application to, so be sure to check the documentation.

    f. don't forget to leave the CD in the taskbar until the process is completely finished. If you remove the CD before the completion of the formatting, you will ruin the disc.

    g. give a volume name to your new CD.

    I also suggest you to check the article mentioned below.

    Should which CD or DVD format I use?

    http://Windows.Microsoft.com/en-us/Windows7/which-CD-or-DVD-format-should-I-use

  • Cannot copy image from a url from an invocation

    Hi, I do an application what and now work correctly, but I have a problem. When my application is called is reciving a url as follows:

    file:///accounts/1000/invoke/com.MyApp.image.open/xa000000000000a/IMG_00000027.jpg

    As you can see, this url points to an image, and is the uri from the received call parameter. At this stage I can show the image perfectly in my application (because it is invoked as a card in another application). The goal is to save the url of the image in a database for future access to the app. I tried to register the url because it is above, but now I understand why I could not properly gwendoline image (the stuff of card).

    Then I tried the following:

    void ApplicationUI::addRecord (const QUrl & url)
    {
    Create a new folder
    QDir (QDir::currentPath() + "/ shared/photos/").mkdir("myApp");
    Setting up the source url
    QString from = url.toString ();
    Setting up the destination path
    QString = QDir::currentPath() + ' / shared/photos/myApp ";
    Copy of the file
    QFile::copy (from, to);
    }

    I have permission to access_shared. I didn't really now what's the problem with that. I'm kinda a noob and I'd appreciate your advice and help. Thank you!

    Hello!

    Thank you!

    I achieve my goal like this:

    void ApplicationUI::addRecord (const QUrl & url)
    {
    Create a new folder
    QDir (QDir::currentPath() + "/ shared/photos/").mkdir("myApp");
    Get the file and file information
    QFile file (url.toString ());
    QFileInfo fileInfo (file);
    Setting up the source url
    QString from = url.path ();
    Setting up the destination path
    QString = QDir::currentPath() + ' / shared/photos/myApp / "+ fileInfo.fileName ();
    Copy of the file
    QFile::copy (from, to);
    }

    Originally, I used QString from = url.toString () and got:

    file:///accounts/1000/invoke/com.MyApp.image.open/xa0000000000058/IMG_00000066.jpg

    Then I tried = url.path () QString and I got:

    / Accounts/1000/Invoke/com. MyApp.image.Open/xa0000000000058/IMG_00000066.jpg

    In addition, I changed the setting to QString to QDir::currentPath() = + ' / shared/photos/myApp / "+ fileInfo.fileName ();

    Small piece that I could copy the image.

    Hope you find it useful!

  • Cannot copy images from text to Photos

    When I get a picture ISO messase text, it allows me to see ad offers the possibility to 'copy of Photos ".  When you select 'Copy of Photos', he said is to do and refer you to the text message - but the photo is never actually copied.  Anyone see this behavior, or better yet know if it can be fixed?  Is this a bug in the OS?

    Just a guess... but maybe you copied too
    files in the directory root of the card. (Root directory
    simply means level 1 with no folder)

    Remove files from the media, and then try again.

    For example I just tested a 1 GB SD card and the
    maximum number of files I can copy to the root
    Directory is 180. If I add a file more I get a dialog box
    who says: "cannot copy IMG_4321; The directory

    If I make space by deleting files and add empty
    files to the card... I can copy as many files as I have
    here in the files (up to the limit of memory of)
    the card).

    I don't know if you noticed but most digital

    They do not image files in the root directory
    of the card.

    While the ants marchimg shows the layer limits what you write the entire document. Only the pixels of the target layer are selected.

    Here are two screenshots.

    I have two documents open in Photoshop. There are three top ob Basemap layers layer a red, a green and a blue.  Second teas of the same size but only a white background layer.

    I aim for the Green layer made a Ctrl + A to select the green channel any note the dotted moving line describing the composite view of the entire document. I followed the Ctrl + A with Ctrl + C (copy).

    I then passes to the second document just a white background layer and did a Ctrl + V after the background screenshot shows the results.  Only the green pixels have been copied to the Clipboard.

    I held the ALT key and dragging but no luck...

    Title of the message was edited by: Brett N

    One way is to copy and paste the layer styles:

    1. right click on the layer with the layer style, and then choose the copy layer Style

    2. choose another layer and right-click and choose Paste layer Style

    (or select all of the layers that you want to copy the layer style to choose the paste layer Style)

    The above work equally between different documents.

    NEVER had this... client sent 14 jpg. 2 were NOT copyable! (Select all, copy... NOTHING!) Do not know if I download the image here if this will always be the case (1285x1500W pixels). Is there a way the image could be "locked"?

    NOTE: I duplicated the layer and then drag the layer to the new document. If I tried to select the new layer and paste it in the new document, it looks like in history 'Paste the path' but no way to access/selection shows up. REALLY weird (glad that I got to drag the layer copy!).

    You have probably a few trails. If you want to copy just the image, go to
