  • How do I get a raw image from "My Pictures" into Photoshop?

    How do I get a RAW image from "My Pictures" into Photoshop? When I send it to Photoshop , it shows up as a grey checkerboard. The title is on the top. Whe I try to send a picture from Camera Raw, it does the same thing.

    Has it ever worked or is this just something that started happening recently?
    Have you tried resetting the photoshop preferences file?

    Have you installed the latest updates for photoshop cs5?
    In photoshop cs5 go to Help>Updates
    To post the system info here on the forum it might depend on your browser, but using firefox as an example, you would open the system info in photoshop, press Copy then OK.

  • How do i get a still image to fade the same way and at the same time as a video?

    I have a video stacked on top of a still image. When i add a transition, the still turns to a black screen while the video fades in accordance to the transition. How do i get the still image to fade the same way and at the same time as the video?

    I do. I've applied it to both the  still image and the video. Say i used the lens flare transition. If i apply it to both the video and the still image, the video will dissolve in to the next frame, but the still image will go to a black screen and then jump to the next frame. Its almost as if i inserted a black frame instead of a transition, but only for 2 seconds. Below is kind of a peek what it looks like.

  • How can I take a still image from a video?

    How can I take a still image from a video?

    I'll assume you want to create a still to use outside FCPX, not a still frame within FCPX.  It's kinda hidden in the "share."  Go File/Share/Add Destination.  You want "Save Current Frame."  After you've created that destination, it'll be there for you in the future under Share.

  • Can I capture a still image from a quicktime movie?

    Can I capture a still image from a quicktime movie?

    Yes. But how you do it depends on your version of quicktime.
    If you have the pro version, you can easily use the "Export" option to output the video as a series of images.
    For the basic version of quicktime, or if you want to quickly take make a still image of a single frame, you could just use the "Grab" application in OSX to take a screen shot.

  • How do you export a still image from a sequence ?

    I could easily export a frame as still image in CS3 (File / export / ...)
    But how do you do this in CS4 ??... Adobe found another way of making something simple so difficult !...  I try to export media, then select a still image format, make sure ''export sequence'' is *not* selected, but when I look at the output, what I get is not where I had stopped the cursor and appeared on the monitor, but I get the first frame of the sequence instead.
    What am I doing wrong here ?
    Thanks,
    Rob

    Your way should work, it worked for me.
    Try reading this:
    Select a clip in the Project panel or a Timeline.
    Choose File > Export > Media.
    In the Export Settings dialog box, select a still-image format from the Format menu. See Export Settings Format options.
    If tabs are not visible below the Summary pane, click the Advanced Mode button.
    On the Video tab, deselect the Export As Sequence option (if it is selected).
    (Optional) To deinterlace the frame, select Progressive from the Field Type menu.
    (Optional) To correct the pixel aspect ratio for display on computer screens, select Square Pixels from the Aspect menu.
    Click the Output Name hot text.
    Browse to the location where you want to save the still-image file, type a filename for it, and click Save.
    In the Export Settings viewing area, drag the playhead to the frame you want to export as a still image.
    Click OK.
    Check no.10 did you drag the playhead in the export settings viewing area? Or did you do that on the timeline?
    Good luck.

  • How do i subtract a still image from a video I have recorded

    say I have a video and at one part of the video I pause it and would like to take the frame that is up on the screen and make it into a still image> how would I do that?

    Your headline seems to indicate that you're trying to remove a still from a video -- while the body of your post seems to indicate that you're trying to make one!
    I think what you want to do is create a Freeze Frame. If that is so, click on the little camera icon on the bottom right of the Monitor panel and select the option to insert it into your movie project.

  • How can I get a .jpeg image from my video image?

    I want to take an image I captured on film, and turn one frame into a .jpeg file so I can use it in Photoshop. I've created a freeze frame by hitting SHIFT+N .... but now how can I use this image elsewhere? Or is there another way?

    What I always do is go to File> Export Using Quicktime Conversion> then on the bottom change the "Format" option to "Still Image" and change the "Use" option to whatever you like. (JPG, BMP, etc.)
    Just make sure your on the frame you would like to export.
    There might be a better way but this hopefully helps.

  • HT202667 Hi - My daughter was using her Apple TV until recently when she got a Smart TV.  Now the Apple TV is not needed so she passed it on to me.  How do I get it transferred over from her Home Sharing account to mine so that I can use it with my PC?

    As  Winston Churchill wrote, however you might want to do a factory reset on the Apple TV.
    This way all information pertaining to your daughter will be removed from the device. Specifically if see was sign into any of the streaming service, Netflix, Hulu, etc. her credentials will still be associated with this Apple TV, doing  a factory reset will remove all that and make it as if you purchased the device and just plugged it in.

  • How do I get the file nformation from photoshop to move over to InDesign and once info is there how to I get InDesign to create captions from it?

    I need to be able to create captions from the metadata  located in the file info on .png images created in Photoshop.  I have been running into multiple issues.
    1. The data from Photoshop is not showing up in the InDesign File Info
    2. When I simply recreate the information - it is very basic simply description and copyright - the active caption that is generated reads <no data from link>
    Obviously I'm missing an essential step by I cant figure out what.
    Help point me in the right direction would be most appreciated.

    I just tried that and still the same issue.  I right clicked the graphic, (first made sure that the metadata was  in the File Information window), then Captions > Captions Setup > OK.  The Metadata fields are Description and Copyright.  When I try to generate a Live Caption I get the <no data from link> message and for the Static Caption I get an empty container below the graphic
