Check your in 8 bit mode, a lot of the filters don't work in 16 bit. It's image>mode and look for a tick by 16. Wayne

A lot of filters like lens flare and lighting effects also don't appear to work in CMYK. That's cheesed me off a few times when I get something and I've done a bunch of work on it and notice I've forgotten to convert it to RGB first.
