Why does my raw file show editing changes in the Organizer?

When I edit a raw (CR2) image and then save as a .tiff file and close, my original raw file also appears edited in the Organizer. 
I have received advice telling me how to reset to default to get back my unedited CR2, but this is time consuming and I never had to do this in the past.  How can I retain my CR2 in the Organizer after editing?

I suppose everyone expects the edits in the conversion of raw files to be shown in the organizer thumbnail... but that's your choice.

Instead of using 'Open', try using 'Alt Open'. The edited conversion is transferred to the editor, but the edits are not saved in the xmp sidecar filee. They are lost, and you are shown the default ACR settings, if that's what you want.

  • Why do G3 raw files show as "Unsupported Image Format" in Aperture?

    I am moving towards shooting in raw, and as an experiment I imported some sample raw files from the publicly available text images on the Photography Blog. When I try to look at these images, I get a black screen with a warning triangle and the message "Unsupported Image Format". This happens for all the different raws, including some G3 raw files (.rw2). Oddly, it can read the EXIF metadata and has all the information about shooting settings etc. If I import the same files into iPhoto, it displays the images properly and allows editing, etc.
    I have a workaround, which I've also tried with my Fuji X10 raws (still not supported on MacOSX), of running them through the Adobe DNG converter, and then looking at the dng files which seem to work fine. But it's a pain.
    This has to be one of those simple "D'oh" things, but I can't see what I'm doing wrong!

    Thanks Leonie, the second part revealed that I have been an idiot, although the behaviour is still surprising. The folder has a mix of DMC-G3 raws, Fuji X10 raws, and DNG files produced from both. For the Fuji X10 files, the DNGs produce images and the raws produce the "Unsupported file format" message. The latter is not surprising, the former a little surprising (as I've heard that DNGs only work when the associated raw works). The last two remarks don't directly address my problem (or perceived problem), but they perhaps set the frame for my expectations.
    For the G3 files, when I look at it more closely, the G3 raws DO display correctly, while the G3 DNGs give "Unsupported file format". I had managed to fool myself into thinking it was the other way round (Aperture does rather hide the full file name).
    So I was completely wrong, Aperture does support DMC-G3 raw, it's just it's DNG support that's a bit weird. However, it's on my side if I need to use X10 raws (via the DNG step). In fact so far I've given up the latter, as the noise levels are so much greater than in Fuji's in-camera JPEG conversion.
    So, thanks very much for your help. Now I remember the first rule of system support: never trust what the customer tells you! (I know you're not really customer support, but I guess the same rule applies.) Thanks again

  • Why does my itunes summary show so much in the 'other' tab

    while tryng to synch my iphone, it told me i didnt have enough room for my 5 new songs, that i need over 3mb to do this. then i took a whole bunch of stuff off my phone including ALL of my music, (and fb!)and the 'other' in my summary tab shot up to 7.14 gb!!!! that's almost half my 16 gb! what does the 'other' tab mean?

    Hey ridgegirl,
    Try out these steps to resolve the issue:
    Orphaned files may remain on your iOS device if it is physically disconnected while syncing music, podcasts, videos, or photos. This can prevent iTunes from syncing the iOS device on subsequent sync sessions. When this happens, the Capacity indicator in iTunes may report a large amount of "Other" disk usage for the iOS device. To resolve this issue:
    Turn off the music or photo sync option in iTunes for the device.
    Click Apply to sync the changes to the device.
    Turn the music and photo sync options for the device on again.
    Click Apply again to try to sync the device to iTunes.
    If the 'Not enough free space' alert appears, continue to step 5.
    Turn off the automatic syncing functions for the iOS device. To do this:
    Select the iOS device from the iTunes window and click the Summary tab.
    Deselect "Automatically sync when this device is connected" and select the "Sync only checked songs and videos" checkbox.
    Click Apply to sync the changes to the device.
    Reduce the amount of data that is being synced to the device and resync the device. For example, if syncing your Music library exceeds the memory capacity of the device, choose "Selected playlists" to transfer rather than "All songs and playlists" under the Music tab in iTunes.
    If the 'Not enough free space' alert appears, continue to step 6.
    Restore using iTunes.

  • Why does my imac g5 show a folder in the middle of my screen that loads

    HElp my imac g5 shows a blue folder in the middle of my screen that flashes to the finder logo then back to a question mark and back and forth PLEASE HELP this computer has all my files on it and everything i need answers this is my life

    It means it can't find the hard drive. Get your original gray install disk,insert disk and reboot holding the "C" key until you get the OSX screen. Open Disk Utility and do a Repair Disk on the hard drive. If that works then also do a Repair Permissions. If the Repair Disk doesn't work your hard drive may have failed. My assumption here is you haven't been doing regular backups. If your drive has failed you may have lost all your data.

  • Why does a job still show as running on the server even after it's deleted from Instance Manager?

    Deleting a job in Instance Manager doesn't seem to delete the job on the actual server.  Is there another location where we need to cancel the 'connection' to the database from where it's running?

    I should also note that this only seems to be an issue with music that was purchased through itunes. Once I delete songs purchased through itunes on my iphone 5 they still show up with the cloud and down arrow and I can still play them. I do not want them visible unless I choose to download them.

  • Why does my RAW image look grainy when I export it in to Photoshop CC from Lightroom for editing?

    Why does my RAW image look grainy when I export it in to Photoshop CC from Lightroom for editing?
    Checked LR's setting for Ps export and they haven't changed since it was OK a few days ago? It is OK if you zoom in but in 'fit page' it looks terrible!

  • When importing RAW files in Photoshop why does camera raw 8.6 only import 1 size?

    When importing RAW files in Photoshop why does camera raw 8.6 only import 1 size from canon 5d mark iii, in older versions I used to be able to import the files as larger images. It use to have a number of options for the images size. The option now is smaller than the maximum size used to be.

    You know what - I'm sorry
    I'd had a crazy long all-nighter session sorting out images for a client, then decided - when I should have simply gone to bed - to set up the new photoshop. At the very start I made a silly mistake, tried to sort it out then decided to call it a day, responding to your remarks with the problem still in my head but feeling more and more tired.
    Responded again to your comment earlier with the problem still in my head but not in front of me on the screen - however with a fresh head I just turned it all on, opened up PS and today could instantly see what was going on - Oops!
    Thank you for being patient with a sleep deprived photographer who must have been getting annoying yesterday
    I am officially embarrassed

  • Transfer RAW File with Edited Information?

    I have Lightroom on my laptop and desktop pc (Windows Vista and Windows 7 64-bit respectively).  I copied some Canon CR2 RAW files to my laptop in the field and edited some of the files.  Is there a way to transfer those changes, along with the files, to my desktop pc?

    Presumably you have a temporary LR catalog on the LT to do your edits but your permanent catalog is on the DT?
    On your LT, if you use Library / Metadata / Save Metadata to FileS (plural) with the images selected in the Library Grid view, you should get an XMP file for each CR2 file containing the snapshot of the adjustments when you do the save.  Copy both the CR2 and the XMP file to your desktop, and when you import the changes will be part of the initial import state.  If you have already imported the files on your DT w/o the XMPs, then remove them from the DT Library (but not disk) and reimport them after copying the XMP files over.
    If this is a one-time thing then the CR2/XMP one-time transfer is ok. 
    Depending on what else is in your LT's LR catalog, you can export a catalog, there, with just your images and their adjustments, and import that catalog on your DT, changing the paths to the images if necessary on the DT side. 
    Presumably you know how to copy files (CR2s, XMPs, LRCATs) from your laptop to your desktop through a network or USB-attached drive of some sort, right?
    Either of these processes is a little bit messy.  If you will be doing this on an ongoing basis then think about how to make the process as simple as possible.  What I do is have the LR catalog and the images (for the last year, at least) on a 1TB USB3-speed external drive that I bought at Best Buy, where the drive letter is configured to be the same on both computers I use LR on, and then I just plug in the USB-drive to whichever computer I want to use at the moment.  I backup the entire contents of the drive every night to another USB3-speed drive so if I ever drop the one I'm carrying around and destroy it, then I have another copy of everything. 
    The initial copy took a long time but the replication of changes every night doesn't take too long.  I use KarenWare's PTReplicator to schedule a replication of my Pictures folders every night at 2am.  There are other similar programs to facilitate one-way replication like RoboCopy and SyncToy and DoubleTake.

  • Why does FF save files to desktop, when I have "downloads" checked in options? This is a new issue with the latest version 3.6.3 Windows XP Thanks.

    Why does FF save files to desktop, when I have "downloads" checked in options? This is a new issue with the latest version 3.6.3 . Using Windows XP Driving me nuttier! Thanks.
    (Is is that MicroNetFrame Asst thing?)
    == This happened ==
    Every time Firefox opened
    == When I installed latest version

    Thanks for your reply. I appreciate your help.
    It was just a hunch that MircoNetFrame was causing the problem. I disabled it as you suggested, and I still have the problem.
    I just changed under Tools>Options> General - had checked "ask me every time" under downloads, so instead of asking me, FF saved the download to I know not where. It no longer saves it to the desktop, leaving a duplicate in "my documents".
    In windows, I have found unless one knows the entire name of the document, one can never find anything. It isn't listed under recent ''''''__. I can't recall the nomenclature, but the
    capability is ridiculous. So, I don't know where that file I just downloaded is!
    I downloaded a PDF file, but this happens with all DL's. It was so easy to have them all stacked in one place and I could recall
    what I had and when I downloaded it easily.
    Do you have any other suggestions other that going back to the old version of FF, which I would rather not do?
    Thanks again for your time, it is very considerate to help a complete stranger, I must say. Sounds like something I might do! Cheers!

    How to Remove “Other” Data from iPhone, iPad and iPod Touch
    http://www.igeeksblog.com/how-to-remove-other-data-from-iphone/
    With an iOS device, the “Other” space in iTunes is used to store things like documents, settings, caches, and a few other important items. If you sync lots of documents to apps like GoodReader, DropCopy, or anything else that reads external files, your storage use can skyrocket. With iOS 5/6/7, you can see exactly which applications are taking up the most space. Just head to Settings > General > Usage, and tap the button labeled Show All Apps. The storage section will show you the app and how much storage space it is taking up. Tap on the app name to get a description of the additional storage space being used by the app’s documents and data. You can remove the storage-hogging application and all of its data directly from this screen, or manually remove the data by opening the app. Some applications, especially those designed by Apple, will allow you to remove stored data by swiping from left to right on the item to reveal a Delete button.

  • Massive RAW files on editing originals in Iphoto

    On some occasions, but not all, when I process a RAW file and go to upload the result to Flickr, I discover it is some 4 or 5 times the size of the original RAW file, but on other occasions it isn't.  This seems to repeat in certain files, if I try to redo them.  Is this siomething I can work round, or isit something I am stuck with?  Thanx in advance if anyone can help!
    D

    editing can not "change" the size of a RAW file since the original RAW file is kept and you can not edit RAW - when you edit RAW you create a new file iin either a JPEG or TIFF depending on how you have changed the default iPhoto preference settings - exactly how are you editing the RAW? In the iPhoto preferences do you have the preference to save RAW edits as TIFFs checked (betting you do) - if so uncheck it

  • Why does dragging on a Touch Screen change the cursor into a Hand Tool?

    Why does dragging on a Touch Screen change the cursor into a Hand Tool? This did not happen in CS 5.5 and I could edit on my touch screen monitor. With Photoshop CS 6, as soon as I start to drag, the cursor changes to a hand cursor. I have look at all of the system options and nothing seems to affect it so I have to assume it is something wrong with Photoshop CS 6.

    Try staying with it for a while.  It is much nicer panning that way.  Give it a flick, and touch the screen again when in the right position. 
    I think it came in with CS4 BTW, but it makes a lot of sense keeping it on the Touch version.

  • Photoshop Elements 5.0, 1 in 10 RAW files show broken

    I have PS Elements 5.0 running on Vista Home Premium. I am shooting with a Sony Alpha 100 and the RAW files are .ARW. Approximately 1 in 10 of my RAW files show an end-of-file error. I've not yet update the firmware (should I need to?), but I have had a friend open up the same files in CS3 no problem. I have tried new memory sticks, used my laptop with the same Elements licence and I'm still having problems. It comes up with a greyed out box. If I delete the files from the HD and reinstall them, the same ones show up as broken, so it's something specific to these files. They open okay in the Sony RAW editor that came with the camera. What to do!?
