ACR settings help-recovery

I am currently using ACR 7.4.  The recovery slide did not show up.  Customer Service told me to switch to 2012 in my settings.  They also told me-sort of rudely-that this is a question for the forum-um yeah-I'm new to this....so anyway-I don't even know how to find my settings.  When I open a picture out of Bridge, it immediately opens into ACR.  From what I can see, there is no place to open up your settings once in ACR.  I'm on a MAC, so I checked under my applications, but I don't see anything for ACR.  Any help would be greatly appreciated.  Thanks!

Ask in the PS/ ACR forums.

  • Bridge ACR Settings disappear when reopening folder of images

    Frustrating! I'm working on 537 images, I set the exposure, color, etc., and also crop.
    Once the folder is closed and reopened all 537 images have reverted to "As Shot".
    I am hitting "Enter" when cropping is completed; however, hitting "Enter" after color etc. adjustments closes
    the ACR individual icon window and I have to go thru Cmd-R again.
    What am I doing wrong and what should I be doing right?
    537 images have to be redone. Again.

    The .xmp files are listed in the file folder. The "Date Created" for each .xmp
    file is correct, and reflects the time
    the file was worked on originally; however, after closing and reopening the
    file in Bridge, the "Date Modified" for all images
    is "Today, 6:58 PM".
    Check your hard drive permissions, choose the HD icon and then the Get Info
    command (cmd+i). In this window you can see at the bottom if you have read
    and write permissions. If it is set to read only you are not able to write
    data to it. Copy a few to your main disk without the existing xmp files and
    open them in PS, maybe the data is also still in the Camera Raw Data Base,
    just a wild shot.
    Purging the cache does not restore the .xmp editing choices but does delete
    the cropping functions.
    sorry to hear that it did not work, however, purging cache should not
    delete the crop settings, at least, I tried it with one file that is on my
    main hard drive and both ACR settings and crop were kept after purging cache
    for that file.
    The files are located on an external drive. Is this possibly an issue?
    See above, it might be the permissions but also a bad functioning drive. Use
    Apple Disk utility or Desk Tool Pro to check the Disk. (something you should
    do regularly). Ideally the external drive should be formatted in HFS+ for
    Mac but other formatting will also function as long as the drive shows on
    your desktop.
    Personal I never work on files on external drives, I use my main drive for
    it and use external drives (have lots of them...) only for storage and back
    up
    Is there any method to update the "Date Modified" with the "Date Created"
    info in the .xmp files in the file folder?
    Not sure why you want this but in general you can't change xmp yourself if
    the metadata panel has no option for it (only the ones with a pencil icon
    can be edited by the user) other then using scripting I believe.
    However the next time you modify the file in Bridge, finder ACR PS etc your
    modification date should update itself.
    Putting back the modification date will probably not bring back your earlier
    changed settings, at least I don't think so.

  • Want to reset factory settings but recovery drive is not recognized

    Want to reset factory settings but recovery drive is not recognized

    If you can't perform a system recovery from the hard drive, you will need to order recovery disks from HP for your laptop.
    Here is a link to HP's support page:
    http://www8.hp.com/us/en/drivers.html
    If you type in your laptop model number, it will bring up a list of drivers and such for your laptop. If HP has recovery media available for your laptop, there will be an option on that page to purchase it.

  • Sony Vaio Laptop return to factory settings HELP

    I have a Sony Vaio laptop that i bought 5 years ago.  It is very slow and takes a while to get into the swing of things and I want it to run better, So I have a 1TB external hard drive and I was going to back up all the important files and restore it to factory settings, BUT... I dont have a disc with windows on or anything like that.  So I've found that I can do a recovery partition. Will I be ok to do this without having Windows on disc etc etc?  Would this help the laptop run faster and "be like new" ?

     
    Hi ltc58! 
    Thank you for considering Sony Community! 
    Since your laptop is quite old and you're experiencing slow performance, performing a Full Format Recovery would be the best option, as long as the recovery partition of the unit is still intact and not corrupted. Yes, you can still try to format the computer. Please make sure to backup all of your important files on your external drive. The laptop will reinstall the Operating System and it will go back to its original factory settings. 
    Please follow one of these steps: 
    Using Assist Button: Shutdown the laptop and remove all peripherals except for AC adapter. Press Assist button. Select Start Recovery Wizard -> skip Rescue -> Start recovery. 
    Using F10 key: Shutdown the laptop and remove all peripherals except for AC adapter. Turn on the unit then immediately, keep tapping F10 key. 
    NOTES:
    *If an Edit Boot Options screen appears, press the Enter key.
    *If a Windows Boot Manager screen appears, select VAIO Recovery Environment and then press the Enter key.
    In the VAIO Recovery Center window, under Choose a program, click to select Restore Complete System. Follow the on-screen instructions. 
    The process will take for about an hour. If none of these works, then the recovery partition is not accessible anymore. You may contact Sony Support based on your location to order a Recovery Disc or use a retail version of Operating System. 
    For further assistance, we kindly recommend visiting our Sony Global Web site for information on contacting the Sony Support Center in your region at http://www.sony.net/SonyInfo/Support/.
    Hope one of the process works. Good-luck. 
    Regards,
    Vincent

  • Restart to factory settings HELP!

    So I want to restart my macbook pro early 2011 back to original factory setting i have the snow leopard disk but when i click on it to install it says i cant because i installed Lion on it.
    the part i need help in is that i purchased Lion from the app store so I dont have to the disk its self to just restart it from there so I was wondering how am I going to be able to restart my laptop bak to originial factory settings?

    Follow these instructions step by step to prepare a Mac for sale:
    Step One - Back up your data:
           A. If you have any Virtual PCs shut them down. They cannot be in their "fast saved" state. They must be shut down from inside Windows.
           B. Clone to an external drive using using Carbon Copy Cloner.
              1. Open Carbon Copy Cloner.
              2. Select the Source volume from the Select a source drop down menu on the left side.
              3. Select the Destination volume from the Select a destination drop down menu on the right
                  side.
              4. Click on the Clone button. If you are prompted about creating a clone of the Recovery HD be
                  sure to opt for that.
                   Destination means a freshly erased external backup drive. Source means the internal
                   startup drive.
    Step Two - Prepare the machine for the new buyer:
              1. De-authorize the computer in iTunes! De-authorize both iTunes and Audible accounts.
              2, Remove any Open Firmware passwords or Firmware passwords.
              3. Turn the brightness full up and volume nearly so.
              4. Turn off File Vault, if enabled.
              5. Disable iCloud, if enabled: See What to do with iCloud before selling your computer.
    Step Three - Install a fresh OS:
         A. Snow Leopard and earlier versions of OS X
              1. Insert the original OS X install CD/DVD that came with your computer.
              2. Restart the computer while holding down the C key to boot from the CD/DVD.
              3. Select Disk Utility from the Utilities menu; repartition and reformat the internal hard drive.
                  Optionally, click on the Security button and set the Zero Data option to one-pass.
              4. Install OS X.
              5. Upon completion DO NOT restart the computer.
              6. Shutdown the computer.
         B. Lion and Mountain Lion (if pre-installed on the computer at purchase*)
             Note: You will need an active Internet connection. I suggest using Ethernet if possible because
                       it is three times faster than wireless.
              1. Restart the computer while holding down the COMMAND and R keys until the Mac OS X
                  Utilities window appears.
              2. Select Disk Utility from the Mac OS X Utilities window and click on the Continue button.
              3. After DU loads select your startup volume (usually Macintosh HD) from the left side list. Click
                  on the Erase tab in the DU main window.
              4. Set the format type to Mac OS Extended (Journaled.) Optionally, click on the Security button
                  and set the Zero Data option to one-pass.
              5. Click on the Erase button and wait until the process has completed.
              6. Quit DU and return to the Mac OS X Utilities window.
              7. Select Reinstall Lion/Mountain Lion and click on the Install button.
              8. Upon completion shutdown the computer.
    *If your computer came with Lion or Mountain Lion pre-installed then you are entitled to transfer your license once. If you purchased Lion or Mountain Lion from the App Store then you cannot transfer your license to another party. In the case of the latter you should install the original version of OS X that came with your computer. You need to repartition the hard drive as well as reformat it; this will assure that the Recovery HD partition is removed. See Step Three above. You may verify these requirements by reviewing your OS X Software License.

  • ACR settings prior to merging

    I've recently started to use CS5 Photomerge for panoramas, focus stacking and some HDR.  I'm interested in learning the recommend ACR workflow prior to doing the photomerge.   I shoot with the camera (5DII) set to UniWB to assure reliable histograms as I expose to the right. My searches have led me to the following ACR workflow and settings:
    - Reset CR defaults to 0 for Recovery, Fill Light, Blacks, Brightness, Contrast,  Sharpening amount, Noise Reduction and a linear tone curve.
    - From Bridge open all images to be merged in CR.  Select All.
    - Set White Balance as desired. (Since the camera is set to UniWB when I open the image in ACR, Temp and Tint are at the minimum.)
    - Set Exposure as desired and 'Done'. 
    - At this point, from the bridge: Tools>Photoshop>Photomerge or Merge to HDR Pro. Save the merged file as TIFF.
    - I then use ACR controls on this file (and later CS5 as/if needed).
    Questions: Is this the recommended workflow prior to merge?  Is the TIFF file I've saved after the merge a "scene referred" file?  

    Hello d2inaa
    Congratulations on your new Mac!
    Befor you migrate anything from the G-4 to the Intel Mac have a look at Kappy's Basic Guide for Migrating to Intel-Macs it will save you alot of trouble.

  • Nikon NEF/LR5 ACR Conversion Help

    Hi.  I'm running into an issue when I import in RAW/NEF files into LR5 for processing that I could use some help with. 
    I understand the basics of RAW files, that LR5 & ACR can generally only read the basic info from the camera's sensor/EXIF file (ISO, shutter speed, exposure, wb) and pretty much dismisses customized settings the user sets in the camera when shooting. Given that I tend to do the majority of my frame set-up in-camera however, having LR5 dismiss those customized settings is creating a tremendous amount of rework with varied levels of success for me in simply getting the shot back to the same level as what I'm pulling out of the camera.
    Is there a work-around or way to import Nikon's sensor data or to set up a custom color profile in LR5 that I can build to mirror Nikon's sensor data, or am I pretty much out of luck with finding an efficient solution to this issue that doesn't involve using some other third-party software to do RAW/NEF file conversion?  If it makes a difference, I'm shooting with the Nikon D4.  I suspect there are others shooting with the Nikon D800 and some of the newer mid-to-high end Nikon cameras that are running into this issue as well that would benefit from finding a work-around for this issue as well.
    Thanks in advance for all help and suggestions.

    I think the above link will provide a very good appreciation of what you are experienceing. The only software that will provide the same rendition as your camera when you are making multiply adjustments to camera settings in the software provided by your camera manufacturer.
    The tools are there in Lightroom for you to create presets which you can apply at import. Also there are special profiles for your camera which can be applied in the camera calibration panel which mimic some of the camera special settings.

  • HELP: Recovery Discs questions

    hello, i visited the a Best Buy branch today and was hoping to buy 2 laptops. I was speaking with a sales associate when he mentioned I'd need to buy a recovery discs to bring my system to its factory settings in the future if I wanted to. He said it was for $59.
    My questions:
    What is the recovery CD for? Say, if I don't purchase the CD, and then my PC crashes because of a virus and I want to reinstall Windows 7, I won't be able to without this CD? Would this mean that I'd have to buy a new microsoft windows 7 to install Windows again? Would I be able to buy one CD for both computers? 
    Sorry, I'm not that good with computers and hope someone could help.
    Thank you.

    This is true onebadatitude, for some cases.  Mainly when you are looking at upgrading your HDD, or if you suspect the HDD may be going out and is still operable.  But if the drive is no longer operable and has to be replaced, or the OS is corrupted, or some virus has taken over the OS, then MigrateEasy won't quite cut it.  You should always have a set of recovery discs for your computer.  You can order them from the manufacturer (which most people won't do), or you can make them yourself if you know how (it's easy, but many people don't know how), or you can have Geek Squad burn them for you.  
    Whichever method you choose, make sure to get a set of those Recovery Discs.  Odds are you'll never need them, but I wear my seatbelt even though I don't expect to be in a car crash.
    I DO NOT work for Best Buy. I used to be a Geek Squad Agent for 2 years and this is why I am well versed on their policies and procedures, but I do not work for them anymore. My posts are my own opinions and do not represent any opinions of Best Buy. If you do not like my posts, and want to report me, you can do so by clicking this link and reporting me to the moderators.

  • Help, Recovery/Restore error For ipod touch 2g

    Hi, im hoping someone can help my because I really dread sending it away.
    I've had my ipod for a total of seventeen days +(touch 2g 8gig),+ and yesterday when I plugged it into sync to the computer it was showing no music on it and about 4 gig of "other". After this, I disconnected it and checked on my ipod and I had seen that all my music was erased, and I couldnt find the 4 gig of other?
    Anywho, I decided to restore it to its original settings.
    Shortly into the restore I get an error message(14), and after I get this it booted into recovery mode and says I must restore before I can use it, but the problem is everytime I try to restore I get the same error message.
    I have tried all the steps on the support page for error codes and still nothing.
    I'd really like to resolve this and not have to send it away.
    Any help would be greatly appreaciated
    Thanks

    FINALLY someone with the same problem as me. Exact same, and still unsolved...
    I got the iPod Touch 2g 8GB on the 27th of December and on the 25th of January, I plug it in to Sync more music, and it says I have approx. 4gb of 'other', then my music was all gone...
    I have tried update and restore ATLEAST 50 times by now and Soon, I'll give up hope and send it away. I even try the Shift+Restore method (I use XP) and get either error unknown (1) or error unknown (5) when i try it in DFU mode.

    Any help would be appreciated.

  • X61 BIOS Settings - Help

    I have recently purchased a second hand Lenovo X61 ThinkPad, the person who sold it to me has reinstalled windows from the recovery DVDs.
    The laptop boots Windows no problem, but I have noticed that the following BIOS security settings are on:
    ‘Using PassPhrase’ – Enabled
    ‘BIOS Password At Unattended Boot’ – Enabled
    ‘Password Reset Service’ – In Progress
    Not having the X61 BIOS user guide /laptop user guide (I cannot find this on Lenovo’s site) I’m not sure if these settings are normal or not?
    If anyone can provide some further information I would be most grateful.
    One extra piece of information (not sure if it makes any difference), the laptop is also fitted with a fingerprint reader.
    Many thanks
    Sparkey

    Thanks, but please can you explain what these enabled /pending security settings do, or point me in the direction of a downloadable user manual (I have the hardware service manual from Lenovo's site) for the X61?
    The ‘password at unattended boot’ setting worries me, as the BIOS help information implies that a password will be required when the computer returns from hibernation mode?
