Cut out a photo in Photoshop, and when placing into Illustrator and InDesign it changes it.

We have photos that another employee cut out in photoshop, saved as a TIFF and tried to place into Illustrator. When he went to place it, the photo looks like it created a clipping mask but the image is flat.
this is what the tiff looks like in preview and photoshop.
and this is how it shows up when placed in Illustrator. It does the same thing in indesign.
I also tried saving it as a pdf and opening it in Acrobat, and it turns into the butterfly there as well. Does anyone have any clue as to what the problem would be?

Solution found:
The problem originated in photoshop. In the Paths panel, somehow a path of the butterfly was created(still haven't figured out how) and we deleted the path and the problem was fixed.

  • Photo aspect ratio incorrect when "placing" into Muse

    Hello all,
    I'm attempting to place an image into an Adobe Muse page I'm building but when I go to File > Place, select my image and click where I want it on the page, the image places at a ratio much smaller than what I originally exported as.  When I stretch it to the original aspect ratio I exported it as, Muse tells me I need to resample it because I've stretched it larger than the original.  What am I doing wrong?!
    1. I export my image from Photoshop using the "Save for Web" and export the jpeg at my desired ratio: 670 x 290.
    2. I go to File > Place in Adobe Muse and click on the page but the image places at 335 x 145?
    You'll notice the wireframe box on the page.  That's the size I want the picture to be and when I select the wireframe box, Muse says it's 670 x 290.  That's how I originally figured out what ratio I wanted to use for my image.
    This seems to happen with any image I "place" into Muse.  Thanks in advance for any help you all can offer!

    When you create a new site, you can choose the HiDPI option for high resolution output. This causes, that all images are placed in half of their size in order to obtain an adequate resolution on high res monitors. If you scale these images to their original size, they don't meet the requirements of HiDPI any more and you get the upsample warning. You can control this behaviour in "site properties". Just look here:
    Adobe Muse Help | Creating High Resolution websites
    Edit: A look at your screenshots confirms, that you have switched on the HiDPI option: Behind the assets you can see the label "2x".

  • Unexplained white edge on eps when placing into Illustrator (CS6)

    I'm manually stepping CS3 or CS6 generated eps files inside a master Illustrator file.  The EPS looks perfect when I make it, i.e. no white edge. Also when I close and reopen the EPS then view it- no white edge. As soon as I drag or file/place the eps file into an Illustrator file, the white edge appears.  This happens in CS3 or CS6. This white edge actually prints "as is".  Can't get rid of it.  See screen shot.

    Good morning Will,
    I tried placing ai files into my master imposition files this morning and all went very well.  Thank you again enlightening me on importing files.
    There is one file that I'm still having problems with, even using the ai import. This is the file that generated my eps white edge issue.
    When I bring the masked ai file into the imposition file I get about a 1/8" white area on the left and right sides.  And I noticed the file width changed from 8.75" to 8.8+.  So somewhere during the placing of the file a .25" edge is being aded to my incoming ai file.  I've checked my preferences and such and do not see where I could be adding white to the sides of my placed file. My masked file seems to be exact at 8.75".
    Also, I tried importing other masked ai files and all did well--- no white edges. I then created a new imposition file and the white lines appeared again on the masked ai file when I placed it.
    Now I think there's a problem with the original art file itself.  If you could offer any help, I'd greatly appreciate it as it would help me in the future if (when) this issues arises again.  
    I've attached my impo file, the original art file and the masked ai file I used for placing.

  • I dragged a cut out image from one photoshop document into another and now it is blurry. What to do?

    I dragged a cut out image from one photoshop document into another and now it is blurry. What can I do to prevent this?

    What is the resolution of the image that you "dragged"? The resolution is the number in pixels per inch (ppi). If you dragged a significantly lower resolution file into a higher resolution file, it could result in a blurry image.
    see below:
    For further reading of Key Concepts:
    http://www.adobe.com/designcenter-archive/keyconcepts/articles/concept_resolution.html
    You can determine the image size by choosing Image > Image Size
    below you can see the pixel dimensions of my example image.

    I have an Retina display MacBook Pro with HMDI out port. I also have an HDMI to Component cable with Audio Plugs. How can I get HDMI out to work with this cable when plugged into the MacBook Pro and connected to the TVs Component and Audio in ports.

    Will not work.  To my knowledge, dual converting like that isn't supported.  The Mac must detect the connected video output device and that sort of info cannot be done across an analog component uni-directional connection.

  • How can you take a photo from one event and put it in another, without dragging to desktop and dragging back into iPhoto and moving it to the event folder I want it in.

    As the title says I need help on how to take a photo from one event and put it in another, without dragging to desktop and dragging back into iPhoto and moving it to the event folder I want it in. Right now when I want to move a picture from one event to another I drag it to my desktop then delete it from iPhoto then I drag it back into iPhoto and put where I want it.An example would be taking a photo from the Christmas event and add it to a specific person event.  Can I do that within the events section without all the dragging. Also is there anyway I can remove duplicates from iPhoto without going through each and every file. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

    Apple doesn't make it easy to do what you want.  However, here's how I do it. 
    Select the photo you want to move and create a new Event for it via the Event ➙ Create Event menu option.
    In the Event mode select the new Event with the one picture and drag it onto the Event you want to move the photo to.

    Okay, so, fast forward from July to now -
    - I've visited my closest Apple store's genius bar twice now. (Over an hour and a half away.)
    - My computer spent at least 8 hours behind their closed doors in the workshop
    - Several complete erases of the harddrive have taken place
    - Most of the Apple geniuses I dealt with were nice and very knowledgeable, but they were and still aren't 100% sure exactly what is wrong with my computer.
    The good news is:
    - They were able to at least get it running again, with a clean install from their servers of OS X Lion 10.7.5
    - They believe that my problems stem from either 1 of 2 things:
            - Faulty Hard Drive (even though it is brand new)
             - The wrong build of software being installed.
    Now, while the wrong build does seem like it could be the problem, it doesn't make sense in the aspect that all of the initial problems began when the first hard drive failed. The same problems continued when I changed out the failed hard drive with the brand spanking new one, and only slightly improved when I was able to successfully install the OS that came with the original disks for my computer. I'm not convinced this thing is back to normal, but hopefully I can make it last through getting a shiny new retina Macbook Pro in the coming future. Thank you so much to everyone who read and replied to this post!

  • I played a rented movie in my newly bought ATV, but when i wanted to watch a TV Series i got the "Authorization is Required" !! although i have successfully played a rented movie at first !! and when checking into iTunes i couldnt find the ATV??

    I played a rented movie in my newly bought ATV, but when i wanted to watch a TV Series i got the "Authorization is Required" !! although i have successfully played a rented movie at first !! and when checking into iTunes i couldnt find the ATV??

    The ATV2 or ATV3 (small black boxes) don't show up as devices in iTunes. If iTunes and the ATV's have Home sharing turned on for the same account - and are on the same network, the ATV should show up as an AirPlay target device in iTunes.
    The rented movie - was this rented on the ATV or in iTunes?
    The TV series - where are you trying to play this from? Is it in iTunes or via the 'TV Shows' menu in ATV... i.e streaming from iCloud?

    i was trying to restore my itouch because it showed on my itouch the itunes bar on top and the charger on bottom so i went on itunes and when i pressed "restore" and then pressed "restore and update", another sign popped up saying "The ipod "ipod" could not be restored. The disk you are attempting is full. Removing files and empty the recycle bin will free up additional space. What do I do?!?!?! please help me ASAP

    Hi
    I followed this guy's instructions and it worked:
    http://evsiphone.blogspot.com/2009/05/iphone-iphone-could-not-be-restored.html
    I did disable the security (AVG and Zone Alarm) when I tried on my own PC. My wife's laptop which eventually got it working also uses AVG and Zone Alarm but on an XP O/S whereas my PC is Vista - maybe this is why.
    Cheers for you help.

    A Safe Mode boot might help ..
    Startup your Mac in Safe Mode
    A Safe Mode boot takes much longer than a normal boot so be patient.
    Once you are in Safe Mode, click Restart from the Apple () menu.
    See if the problem persists.
