How to import all layers in Photoshop at one go ?

Hi there,
I am trying to import a Photoshop psd file into AE. This file has a lot of layers. When I do File > Import > FIle, it ask me whether I want to import as footage or Layers.
When I chose Layers, I am asked which layers I wanna import in. As I have to import one layer at a time, this is time consuming. How can I import all layers at one go ?
Thanks
Cheers

Choose import as a composition. Check the help files. There are two options.
Thanks Rick, Didn't realize that after clicking File > Import > FIle, when the dialog box appeared, we can still change the option to import as composition.
Thanks Rick for the tips !!
Cheers

    how do import all contacts to icloud

    Ok, well first you have to go on icloud.com and make sure that you delete all the contacts you don't want to have overritten on your iphone or merged. Now on your iPhone go to Settings -> iCloud and just flip the toggle next to contacts to "ON". Now it will syncs everything to iCloud and you are up to date. I hope that is what you ment to do?

  • How to import JPEG sequence into Photoshop CS5.1 - Windows 7 64x?

    Specs:
    Windows 7 Home Premium 64x
    Adobe Photoshop CS5.1
    I have been doing animated banners by using Ae and exporting my animation as JPEG sequences in order to import it to Photoshop and export it as GIF. However, I just upgraded to CS5.5 and I cannot find the "image sequence" checkbox when opening a file.
    I would normally see this check box when going to File > Open .. select one file and the open window would have this check box at the botton, which I no longer see.
    I could import all my (130) JPEG sequence images and then use the animation window but that would be soooo stressing and tedious.
    Any help will be appreciate it!

    If you have a series of jpeg images use menu File>Scripts>Load Files into Stack. This will load all the jpeg image files into a single document as layers.  Use the Animation Palette fly-out memu and click on make frams from layers.

  • How to import all tags, etc to upgrade version 3.2

    I have all my photos organized in Album version 2.0. After installing version 3.2 how do I import all my old tag, collection and title information?
    Version 3.2 found all the pictures but I did not get the related info.

    Nicholas,
    Please understand that these two products are actually quite different.
    Photoshop Album is similar to Photshop Album SE, but as you might imagine
    given that SE is free, it is NOT the next step UP for Photoshop Album.
    Photoshop Elements 3.0 is.
    I am not sure if Version 3.2 has the ability to import the tags from 2.0,
    but I will get confirmation on that. By now you'd think I should know, but I
    run into these things only one at a time.
    I should have an answer in a day or two. If it is supposed to pick up the
    tags, I will have additional questions for you.
    Cheers

  • Problems importing 3D layers from Photoshop

    Hi, I am a public school teacher in Australia and we have a site licence for the Adobe Master Collection CS4 at school. I am having some problems importing 3D layers into After Effects from Photoshop.
    Firstly, I have a computer in my office with exactly the same software, installed from the same source as the computers in my class room. They are all running Google SketchUp 8, Photoshop Extended CS4 and After Effects CS4.
    In my office I am able to export a 3D model from SketchUp using the KMZ format and open it using Photoshop. I can then save the file as a PSD file. I can't attach the file here as it is just over 2mb. When I import it into After Effects using the Photoshop Live 3D option I can rotate the model as normal and the elements appear as shown below.
    When I try the exact same exercise in my class room (where the computers are all running exactly the same versions of Photoshop Extended CS4 and After Effects CS4) the model is imported as a 2D image with no ability to rotate or interact with the model. It appears that the camera and controller layers are missing from the timeline as well as the Solids folder from the Project pane as shown below.
    I have been trying to figure out the difference for most of the day today and so far I cannot find any reason for this to occur, neither can I find anyone with a similar problem who has solved it.
    Any help would be greatly appreciated,
    Mr Merrick

    PS Live 3D requires hardware acceleration to work properly, that is in terms of OpenGL support being available in Photoshop on the machines in question. If that's not the case, the importer component won't function either as it uses the same routines.

  • Importing .AI file (multiple artboards) into After Effects imports all layers?

    Okay, so I've been trying to figure out this issue that I am having but the problem is a bit wordy to explain.
    What I want to do: Import an Illustrator file, that is a single artboard from a multiple artboard file into After Effects and ONLY import the layers from that artboard.
    What is happening: Artboard 1 with shape 1, artboard 2 with shape 2, and artboard 3 with shape 3. When I export them (Save as --> .ai --> Save each artboard as a separate file), in .ai the layers are correct (ie only shape 1 on artboard 1), but when I import the .ai into AE, artboard 1 has shape 1, shape 2 and shape 3 (they are all separate layers).
    How does Illustrator determine what is or isn't in an artboard? I am seeing the other layers but they are only 1x1 in AE.
    I am using Illustrator CS6 and AE CS6 and I've tried it both on Mac and PC, and haven't gotten it to work. The weird thing is that it WAS working correctly before.

    I have (hypothetically), a three layer file each with a rectangle. Each rectangle is on a separate artboard. When I save each artboard as a separate .ai file (ie "Save as --> save each artboard as separate file"), in each .ai file, only the layers in each artboard are in the separate ai files:
    artboard_01.ai only has layer with rect 1,
    artboard_02.ai only has layer with rect 2,
    artboard_03.ai only has layer with rect 3,
    This is good, BUT when I import into After Effects, all three layers appear in each comp generated from the imported .ai files
    comp of artboard_01.ai has layer with rect 1, layer for rect 2 (no content), and layer for rect 3 (no content).
    comp of artboard_02.ai has layer with rect 1(no content), layer for rect 2, and layer for rect 3 (no content).
    comp of artboard_03.ai has layer with rect 1(no content), layer for rect 2 (no content), and layer for rect 3.

    Hi, I want to import PS layers in Edge but I dont know how... I know it in Illustrator...but there is a subtility that I dont know with Photoshop...Someone can help me ?

    You can use the script to save your layers unless your have groups. In that case I save my file as a second psd and in that one flatten my groups before exporting to files.

  • Can't view all layers in Photoshop

    Hi everyone,
    I can't seem to view all my layers in Photoshop (using CS6 via Creative Cloud on a Mac) when I'm duplicating from another file.  I have two files usually open - my mockup file I'm working on for a UI project, and various templates files which I'm trying to add various UI element so that I can cut and paste various UI elements into my file. I duplicate a layer group and send it to my file, and they'll show up in the Layers panel, but the content isn't displaying on the screen - I've double checked that it isn't buried somewhere and is visible.  Or I've had it where the Layer will display, but it'll transform the contents into a Layer that loses the ability to edit the text.
    When I've tried it with various files, I've had mixed results of what I can add to my mockup file.  I duplicated layers from a PSD of grds (http://www.ravelrumba.com/photoshop-grids/) ok into my new file, but when I try and duplicate a layer that has a photograph or any Vector art and send it to my destination file, the Layer shows up in the Layer panel but the content doesn't show up on the screen.  It works for some PSDs ok, but often not with others. This is true for individual layers and a group of layers. 
    Is there something specific I have to be able to do to make content display?
    I tried the 'video card' issues that I've read about, but someone told me that's more something that affects PCs (I'm running a MacBook Pro).
    Any ideas?

    I think you solved it! I just looked, and a few of the layers in question ARE off the canvas - so at least I'm seeing them now once I've zoomed out and seen the entire canvas and black background area.  I think I wasn't thinking about that because a lot of these template files of all possible UI elements are huge in size, so when I added it to my much smaller document, they are by default going to be off the canvas (especially if the canvas size is 2000 x 8000 pixels!) of the other document.  I was thinking somehow that they'd show up by default closer to the middle of my document.
    Thank you so much for this!

  • How to import all images on disc?

    after having used iPhoto 08 for a long time the link between the program and the source files broke. i have a hard time restoring the library. how can i import ALL images on my harddisc into iphoto? is there a function that scans and finds all images automatically?

    You really would not want to do this - you would have a mess - many duplicates and lots of images that have nothing to do with photos
    Tell us more about your problem - what is happening and how it occurred
    Most likely you have all of your original Photos in the originals folder of your iPhoto library and simply quitting iPhoto, dragging the iPhoto library to the desktop, launching iPhoto and creating a new library and dragging each folder from the originals folder in your iPhoto library on the desktop onto the iPhoto icon in the dock (check to be sure that the iPhoto preference to split items imported from the finder is NOT checked) - this will recreate your events
    If this is not an option their probably is still help

  • How to Make all Layers Visible in Final Photo?

    Hello, I'm new at PS and CS5. While retouching a portrait, I've created 5 layers. When the eye is open on all layers in the layers palette the only layer that seems to be active is the one on top of the list. If I move a different layer to the top, then that layer is active and the others, even though marked active, are not visible in the actual photo. I tried merging all the layers and there was no difference. What am I missing? Thanks.

    If you're duplicating a layer to make changes, then you are duplicating all the pixels on that layer.  I don't know why a tutorial might suggest that, except perhaps to give you a point to go back to if something goes wrong.  It's important to note that such a layer, assuming you keep it at 100% opacity, will completely occlude all layers below it.
    A similar technique which builds upon lower layers and does involve all layers being visible is this:
    1.  Create a new, completely transparent layer.
    2.  Use tools such as Clone, Fill, Paint, etc. to draw on the transparent layer (setting them to sample from layer(s) below).
    In this fashion you can have the entire original image intact, yet create a derivative work that involves layers that have just the changes on them.
    Again, the key here is opacity.  If a layer is transparent (or partially transparent, or parts of it are transparent), you can see through it to information from layer(s) below.
    If a layer is 100% opaque and there are no "holes" erased in it or masked from it, then any layers underneath are not participating in the look of the image.  But they may still be there to provide you a handy reference for what the image looked like before changes, etc.
