Photoshop Elements 3.0 Back-Up - File Name Change

I currently run Photoshop Elements 3.0. When I back-up the catalog from within Photoshop, the file names are changed (i.e 100_2424.JPG to BO00012). All of my Premiere Elements 7 projects point to the original file name. If I ever lost that original JPG file, the back-up file would be recovered, but would not be recognized by Premeiere Elements, and thus not be found. Why does the file name change after back-up? How can I retain the original file name during back-up? Thanks.

Once you have taken the backup, all the files are renamed as you mentioned in the post. Its only when you restore the catalog through File->Restore, the files are restored by the original name.

  • CS4 Photoshop.exe file name changes

    Has anyone had the CS4 Photoshop.exe file change names? I have had this happen on a couple of computers, one machine it happened twice. When CS4 is installed, the Photoshop file name is Photoshop.exe, at some point, the file name changes to PHOTOSHOP_CS4.EXE. I'm going to check with our sys admins to make sure they aren't doing some software push that might be changing it, but thought I would post here in case it was a known issue.

    When you find the culprit you might let him know that different Photoshop versions always live in different Program Files subfolders.

  • Photoshop Elements 10 Rolling Back

    As a result of a recent problem with Elements Organiser, I had to uninstall all of Elements 10.
    When I now try to install it again, it appears to be installing ok (in that it populates the destination folders and places a launch icon on the desk top etc)
    However, before it fully finishes the install, the installer window says something along the lines of "Photoshop Elements 10 Rolling Back Installation". This removes the desktop icon and gradually unpopulates the files from the destination folder.
    As recommended on the Adobe Help Page, I have switched off my Firewall (AVG Professional), but the problem still occurs.
    I have previously had Elements 10 running ok on this machine.
    Any ideas ?
    Regards
    JJ

    Already tried these.
    The issue is obviously related to a Failure to Install Shared Technologies.
    I've loaded the Adobe Support Installer Analyser, but no joy or no viable solutions.
    I can't believe that I have spent money on a product that I cannot use. There appear to be many people on the various forums out there with similar issues.
    It should be easy to contact Adobe directly to get clear and unambiguous help on issues such as this.We shouldn't have to rely on well meaning and helpfull forum members for what feels like a breach of consumer rights. If you had a kettle which failed to work correctly after a couple of months, you would want the supplier to resolve the issue, not expect other "kettle users" to suggest a range of alternative solutions !!
    Whilst I'm not a PC geek, I'm no slouch either. How on earth would someone with limited PC knowledge cope.

  • Indesign Post Script name changing to back up file name

    Hi all
    I am in a pre press workflow that requires that I write a post-script file to a hot folder.
    So saving as a post-script is the only option for our entire workflow to take place.
    When saving the post script file from indesign , the name defaults to the back up file name which is
    not similar to the original file name. We deal with an extremely large number of pages
    and need for this file name to stay the same as the original not the back up. Manually putting these file names
    in is a serious chance for error and takes too much time.
    Does anyone know how to prevent the name from changing?
    Thanks for any help.

    You should be posting to the InDesign or Acrobat forum. Please repost there giving them your version of InDesign and Acrobat. Detail you method of creating the postscript file. You should be printing to file using the Adobe PDF printer instance. I only suggest the InDesign forum, since the print dialog box in InDesign is not a standard Windows Print dialog box.

    jpg and pdf formats don't support transparency. You need to use a format such as tif, png or psd that does.

  • InDesign CS4: File names change to string of numbers

    Occasionally, one of our users will save an InDesign CS4 file, only to have the file name change.  For example, a file originally named "#kwn25501.bcbsNM.indd" was saved as "#kwn25501.bc157-1223857848."
    If the user is not aware that this has happened, things can go horribly, terribly wrong in our production environment. The "numbered" file may be missing key elements, or be somehow be corrupt in some fashion. In one case, this led us to having to reprint a job because the "numbered" file was missing a photo; somehow, that file was used (and perhaps renamed after the fact) to create the final output.
    We use Macs running InDesign CS4 6.0.5. Some of our Macs are running Tiger 10.4.11, while others are running Leopard 10.5.8. The problem seems to related to the Leopard machines, although that is not 100 percent certain at this point. All of these Macs are bound to Active Directory and save files to a Windows 2003 server. I know Adobe recommends against working on files over a network, but perhaps there is an explanation for this file renaming aside from network issues.
    Any light that can be shed on this issue will be greatly appreciated. Thanks!

    Check to see if maybe your original filename is the problem.
    You may need that particular name for a workflow reason, but some of the symbols in the middle of your filename are generally not a good idea. Especially working off of a server, file names should be ONLY alpha-numeric characters, no symbols, no periods (except for the file type) and only underscores or dashes to separate words, no spaces.
    The reason is some of those symbols get picked up as machine language and all sorts of bad can happen as a result.

  • When downloading files the file name changes name?

    When I download files from yahoo email account the file name changes from actual name to securedownlad.doc. Why is this happening and how do I stop it? Is it an email client issue?

    I have to go and manually change file name back to GeorgiaTechstinks.doc

  • IPhoto file names changed

    I have just noticed that in several of my events the underlying file name of several imported photos has been changed to my assigned Title.  Since I didn't think Apple provided a way in iPhoto for Mac to change the file name, and I am not digging into the file structure of iPhoto, I can't change the file name back to that assigned by the camera (and I don't necessarily know it anyway).  I see no obvious reason why specific file names were changed.  Is there some non-obvious way to change file names that I accidentally stumble upon?

    iPhoto 9.4.3.  Not sure what you mean by history.  It has been in use for some time.  No other obvious problems.  The file name changes, at least that I have noticed, are from this year and, in particular, this past week.  One other observation is that I only happened to notice because I exported a group of photos and saw that a few of the exported names did not have the camera assigned names and then I looked back at iPhoto (hovering the cursor over the title - which gives the file name).  Again, the files were exported as a group and no obvious reason for something to change for one rather than another file.  It is possible the change took place when I exported the photos rather than earlier as I had no reason to check.

  • Saving/exporting issue in Windows 7-file name changes when trying to navigate

    I just got Windows 7 on my computer and am running ID CS5. The weirdest problem happens when I try to save as or export a file. The dialog box comes up and normally, I would be able to select a folder I want to navigate to just by typing the folder name, but what is happening is that the first letter goes to a folder, but upon typing the second letter, it starts changing the name of my file.
    So for example, I am saving a file ABC.indd and I go to navigate to save it in a folder called Project XYZ. When I type in "P" to get to that folder name, it jumps right to the first folder starting with P. However, upon typing "r" my file name changes from ABC.indd to "r.indd." If I kept typing, it would become "roject XYZ.PDF."
    This happens when saving as a file or if I am exporting a PDF. Our entire marketing department or 6 people was recently upgraded from XP to 7 and we all have this problem in ID. This does not happen in Illustrator or Photoshop and it has our IT department baffled. It is driving us crazy though because we make dozens of files a day and now have to manually scroll through long file structures when exporting PDFs, which is so time consuming, not to mention aggravating.
    In searching for this problem, I found another poster on a different website who has the same issue, but no one had any suggestions.

    Tell whomever is emailing the file to zip it first.

  • File name changes when I sync videos

    As title says, when ever I load a video into my 3Gs Iphone the file name changes to a numerical one.
    How do I keep the original file name?
    As it is I can only sync 1 video at a time then rename it before adding another.

    Oops, Just realised I put this n the wrong forum. Just to clarify this is prerecorded video files.

  • Photoshop Elements won't create a file, edit a file or save a file...

    Hello all,
    I just bought an Epson 600 scanner which came with a copy of Photoshop Elements (v7, but that's another question for another day).  Was working fine for awhile (a few weeks) but now I'm unable to edit any files.  This is on an Intel Mac Pro running Windows 7 (natively, not in VMWare) with 8 cores and 8 GB of RAM and terabytes of free disk space.
    Here's a sample sequence of events:
    1) Launch PE
         - Get selection screen for organize, Edit, Create, Share.
    2) Select Edit
         - Launches editing workspace normally
    3) Click File->Open
         - Get the file browser window with thumbnails (standard windows stuff)
    4) Click a TIF file (or a JPG file) and click Open
         - File browser window closes and I'm taken back to the editing view but there's no picture.  No sign that it did anything (all the menus that are greyed out when the editing screen is empty are still grey etc - including the File Save menu option)
    5) Try to drag a file into the editing workbench from windows explorer (either a TIF file or a JPG)
         - Same behavior - switches back to the workbench, but everything is still greyed out and the file isn't there.
    6) Try to create a new file
    7) Click File->New
         - New file dialog pops up asking me to name and size it
    8) Give it a random name and leave it at the default 6x4x300dpi and click OK
         - New file dialog goes away and returns me to the editing canvas, but it's still blank and all the menus remain greyed out
    I get the exact same behavior if I try "Open As" or "Open recently edited files" etc
    I AM running Symantec anti-virus and I've noticed some people mentioning that that can cause issues for Adobe, but turning it off really isn't an option.  So if there's some rule I need to set up to allow some background process to talk, that's fine but I can't just disable it to use PE.
    Is there any debugging log kept somewhere?  (I suppose I could check this site more thoroughly for that info)
    Any help or suggestions would be most welcome!
    Thanks,
    Jason

    Try resetting the PSE preferences by
       1. Close Elements.
       2. Launch the Photoshop Elements Welcome Screen and hold down ctrl + alt + shift as you click Edit.
       3. Continue to hold the keys until you see a message box asking if you want to delete Photoshop Elements settings file; click Yes. Elements will open with default preferences.
    try and let me know your comments.
