    I'm pretty sure you need some stuff on the canvas to use some of the filters.

    Yes you can't just make a document then fill the background and go to filter..You need a new layer for the filters to be available.

    Basically what he is saying is he can't use his filters so fix the rgb resolution as Otaku posted when you start your new document and you should be fine
