Activating Tool Palette 2 tools in Nikon Capture

If you are zooming in camera (as in, pressing the zoom button while looking at the back of your camera's LCD), you won't be able to save that version.

You will have to open your picture in an image editor and use the crop tool to crop the image to your liking. You can then save that image as a new image. If you don't have an image editor, pixlr.com is a good, free, web-based option.

Good Luck, it sounds like you need to get it to Nikon for service

There are a couple of possibilities. 1. Confirm the image is in RGB color mode, sometimes CMYK or Index color will lock tools (Image->Mode->RGB) 2. Sometimes part of the image is selected, even though you may not see it. Try using ctrl+d to make sure you have de-selected all of the canvas. Good Luck!

This sounds like it could be a couple of things. First, since the cursor is huge, go up to the menus at the top and choose Window>Character which will open the character palette so you can change the size of the text. Then make sure the text color is different than the backgrd color 'cuz it could be getting lost. Check your Layers palette to see if the text tool worked as whenever you use the text tool it will make a separate layer for the text. If your font size is small and your cursor is still going off the canvas, it could be that your image is very small. Check this by going to Image-->Image size and you can change the dimensions or the resolution. If the resolution is already low (>72ppi) then the image will pixelate when you make it bigger so try to get a higher resolution copy of the pic.

By default the tools found in Tool Palette 2 are used for editing NEF files. If a non-NEF file is opened these tools become inactive and cannot be used. To use the Tool Palette 2 options open a NEF file from a Nikon camera.

RAW NEF images from Nikon cameras are proprietary formatted raw data directly from the cameras's sensor. If the images are improperly transferred to the computer they will not be able to be opened and will give an "Unsupported File Format" warning. Macintosh OS X has an "Image Capture" application (found in: Hard Drive/Applications/)that can be used to transfer images. If "Image Capture" is used NEF files will be corrupted and will not be able to be read. Only Nikon View, or manually dragging images from the mounted card, should be used to transfer NEF's. To disable "Image Capture": Double-click to open the hard drive and then the "Applications" folder Double-click "Image Capture" From the "Image Capture" menu choose "Preferences..." In the "When a camera is connected" pop-up choose "No Application" Close the Preferences window and Quit Image Capture After disabling Image Capture, it will not launch when the camera is connected and you can use Nikon View to properly transfer NEF images.
