Actions not importing

Hi All,
I'm trying to import my saved actions, from Photoshop CC, into Photoshop CC2014.
I tried importing everything when I first launched the program via the auto import option, but that failed on everything.
I tried running the Migrate Preset option, but kept getting the same error message: Could not save Preferences because the file is locked, you do not have necessary access permissions, or another program is using the file. Use the ‘Get Info’ command in the Finder to ensure the file is unlocked and you have permission to access the file. If the problem persists, save the document to a different file or duplicate it in the Finder.
I looked at the Photoshop Info and it has Read & Write on everything.
I tried to export the actions on CC via the Export/Import Presets... option under Edit, but when that window opened, nothing showed up to export.
I uninstalled and reinstalled CC 2014.
I'm running OS X 10.10.1 and Photoshop CC 2014.2.2
Thoughts?

I try to reproduce your action issue in Mac Yosemite, but I can’t reproduce your issue in our end.
I try the problem in Acrobat 11.0.10 in Mac Yosemite version i 14A_389.
I need the following information:
1. Can you send me your action sequence file? How do you create this sequence file, does it work before?
2. What is your Mac Yosemite version, my Mac Yosemite version is 14A_389, you can find this from “About This Mac” menu.
3. What is your Acrobat version, 11.x or 10.x, you can find this from “Acrobat/About Acrobat” menu
Thanks for finding the bug for us.
Steven;(Acrobat QE)

IPhoto will not import certain JPG files

I have just migrated to a 2012 Retina 15" MacBook Pro from a 13" MBP. I am using Mavericks 10.9.1 and iPhoto 9.5.1. The MBP is a 2.7gHz quad core with 16GB of memory and a 768GB SSD. I was trying to tidy up my hard disc and import some .jpg files from the output folder on my Capture One Session. iPhoto will not import certain jpg files but will import others. The message I get is as follows The following file could not be imported. The file is an unrecognised format. Then shows below for example /Users/xxxx/Pictures/Capture One Session/Output/L1000212.jpg.
I first tried creating a new library and importing to that with no success. I then rebuilt the database. I repaired permissions. I deleted the iPhoto.plist and its caches and restarted - no success. I then deleted iPhoto and reinstalled from App Store after deleting the plist and caches again. Still no luck. The .jpg files in question open perfectly in Photoshop CC and Preview. I tried altering them slightly and resaving but still they would not import. I reinstalled Mavericks - no improvement. If I reconvert the files from the original DNG's into TIFF files, then they will import to iPhoto
Any ideas anyone?

I just recorded an action in Photoshop CC to assign ProPhoto colourspace save and close. Then copied all the problem jpegs into a temp file and ran the action. With this super fast machine, It only took a few minutes to convert 500+ files and they have now all imported perfectly. I have changed my JPEG recipe to convert DNG's from embedded to ProPhoto.
Thanks again. Colourspace would never have occurred to me.

Flash 2004 MX will not import .FLA's into the library

I can't imagine why this is- but if someone has some
eperience here- I would be so ever grateful.
I can't get Flash MX 2004 to inport FLA files into the shared
library. When I select inport/into shared library I get an error
message that says flash does not recognize the .fla file type and
wants to know if I should let quick time see if it can recognize
the file. "Use quicktime instead".
Here is what I have tried:
Reset the file types in File/Folder under control panel to
default- Flash- But all file types were already recognzed- -reset
was just a deperation hope and prayer.
Un-installed quicktime then tried to import- no
un-installed flash- reinstalled flash- tried to import- no
Installed newest version of Quicktime and then tried to
import- no
Reverted to a prior system restore point- then
Re-installed Flash - tried to import-no
looked in the registry but could not navigate to anything
that resembled file extensions-
Flash saves FLA's and makes SWF's just as it should- opens
FLA's and sees FLA file types in the saved folder.
When I initialize the import/to library functon FLA file
types are not listed unless I select "all file types" in the file
types drop down- it does recognize SWFs
Flash did recognize FLA's until I played a Quicktime
Instruction CD. With no further action on my part, it quit
importing correctly-
No viruses are found
?? ideas
Thanks
-D
Any other ideas or work-arounds would be greatly
appreciated-

Thanks Shane- but when I need to share a library file- I
select file/ import to library and that is where I get the error- I
was able to share Flash librarys befor I played the quicktime file-
and now- unfortunately FLAs are an unrecognized format. And I am no
longer getting the additional mesage "do you want Quicktime to try
and open them. Just a message that says "one or more files were not
imported because there were errors reading them"
But they open in flash.... which is what I don't understand-
something has happend that flash no-longer sees the fla file type
under the File/ Import to Library.
-D
Yeah, that would have been a ton of effort... Hopefully a
little more clarification in the details...

Itunes won't add files or folders, also will not import

I have some songs on itunes, but now itunes won't add files or folders, also will not import at all.
I did an uninstall and reinstall but still does not work.
Can anyone help?
Lucille

Ok. So its finally working again. Not sure why, but maybe my experience will help someone else.
All I can say is that I have been trying a relentless combination of mounting and mounting the drive, checking and unchecking the 'copy files to iTunes Library', running 'consolidate library', and everything in between. One of them finally kicked it back into action.
Nice Apple. 9.2.1 isn't buggy at all...that's sarcasm.

ITunes does not import certain files

Hi everyone,
I had to reinstall my WinXP system and therefore also reinstalled iTunes (v9.0.3.15). Now, when I imported my whole MP3 directory, iTunes did not import some albums without displaying any error message. When I realized that some albums are missing, I tried to import them using drag&drop from the Windows Explorer, using the "File-Import file", "File-Import directory" (or whatever these menu items are called in english...), but nothing works! iTunes simply does... NOTHING. No error, no file imported, no action at all.
The files are fairly typical MP3 files: 192 kbps, 44kHz, ID3v1, ID3v2 both present, no DRM... And the most weird fact is: on my old WinXP system (same machine, but slightly older iTunes version) iTunes did import the files without problems!
I have no clue why iTunes won't import them. Does anybody else have an idea?
Many thanks in advance.
Best regards,
gehho.

Hi ed2345,
thanks a lot for proposing the MP3 Validator! This fixed my problem. For others having a similar problem: I used this software: http://www.gromkov.com/faq/repair/mp3_validator.html
However, I must say that I am really annoyed about iTunes and Apple. I mean, what kind of design is it when you say: "We do not accept slightly invalid files, although every other player accepts them. And most important: We do not display an error message to the user, so that he/she has to find the problem him/herself! Ha!" This is really extremely bad user experience, and I always thought Apple was known for their innovative path, especially regarding user experience. Pfff...
There are sooo many other things that annoy me; I think I will not buy any Apply product anymore. In my eyes, they have even overtaken Microsoft in being the most user-unfriendly company on the market:
1) You HAVE to use iTunes to copy files on your iPod instead of just using the iPod as a USB drive. What is this for??? It's just to promote their stupid iTunes which again introduces new problems.
2) iTunes obviously does not accept ID3v1 tags. It just displays all my MP3s which only have v1 tags as "Unknown". Come on, every other MP3 software supports ID3v1, why does not iTunes???
3) The import process in iTunes is such a hassle. Instead of being able to observe a directory for new files, you have to add every single new album manually. Of course, only after you validated it... Moreover, you cannot add multiple directories at once using the menu options - you have to do it with drag&drop; and it took me some time to try that.
4) EDIT: Another point just came to my mind: When importing a whole directory, iTunes is stupid enough to add all files once again, instead of just adding the new files. Therefore, you really have to know which album is missing in iTunes because otherwise you will have lots of files twice or three times or hundred times.
OK, that's enough for now. I am just really pi**ed off because I was playing around with those "invalid" files for about 5 hours. Might also be that it's me who's the stupid one - if so, please tell me. But from a company like Apple, I expect a software which is easily handled even by absolute newbies, and I would not call me a newbie...
Anyway, have a nice day everyone, and happy validating!
Thanks again to ed2345! The comments above were not meant for you! It just came out of my fingers... Btw: As you asked my to pick my interpretation... I would pick "INCOMPETENT" - completely!

"Orphan Timeline" & "End Action Not Set." What does this mean????

I am setting up a Blu-Ray DVD in Encore. I have a project on a Premiere Pro CS 5.5 Timeline, which is 2 and a half hours long with 24 Encore chapters in it. I have not yet Encoded it in Media Encoder as of yet.
I am setting up all my menus and buttons in Encore so all I have to do is link the buttons to them main project when I do encode it and then I can just Check it and Burn it.
I did check my project just now though and all buttons came up with 2 Errors:
1) Orphan Timeline
2) End action not set.
1) "Orphan Timeline", I assume that means that the button is not linked to any timeline as of yet, correct? (This would be true because there is no main project timeline in there yet.)
2) "End action not set." What does this mean? Will this go away once I add my whole project into Encore and I link up all of the buttons to the timeline?
Thanks in advance
Premiere Pro CS 5.5
Encore 5.5
Media Encoder 5

1) Orphan Timeline
2) End action not set.
Both of these suggest that you created a timeline in the Encore project, perhaps with no "asset" in it.
Yes, ignore both messages for now. But I prefer creating the timeline after, or along with, importing the asset into the Encore project.
If you believe you have not created a timeline, post a screenshot of your "flowchart."

What to do when Photoshop says could not import clipboard because an unexpected end-of-file was encountered

I have PC, with adobe Photoshop CC 2014 and windows 8. Every time I open Photoshop it says: could not import the clipboard because an unexpected end-of-file was encountered. If I exit the message I still cannot create files or open anything... any suggestions?

When you load Action and when you create new actions they are saved into you Photoshop Preferences into Actions Palette.psp. This File is read when you start Photoshop.
Apple and Microsoft both like to hide important files on users. Windows search and Apple finder will not find and show hidden files unless you change Mac and Windows setting. I you getting the error when you start Photoshop there is a shortcut to reset preferences. Hold down Alt, Ctrl, and Shift keys (Mac: Command, Option, Shift) while starting up Photoshop you should be prompted to for an OK to delete preferences.
If this keeps happening perhaps you have a bad spot on your disk. Loaded actions are saved into that file so they should show up in the Actions Palette when Photoshop Start Up and read that file during start up. Photoshop Writes that file when you load action sets, when you record and edit actions and most likly also when you close down Photoshop.

Actions not working from CS6 to CS5

I use a series of actions that were created in CS6 and are not that complicated. They resize and align an object to coordinates with the center reference point and proportions constrained. I assumed that they would translate to other coworker’s machines with cs5 and cs5.5, but they do not work. The actions appear to load properly, but do not run like they should.
When I hit the assigned hotkey, the selected object moves, but not to the correct location and does not change size as it is supposed to. Also, I can try to manually play individual parts of the action (moving to a reference point or resizing to a certain width) and nothing happens. Not even a wiggle. When I do try to do them one at a time, the small downward triangle button that reveals details of the action disappears and when I click again I get an error message that says 'the object "transform panel" is not available.' I assume this means that action is looking for a location that has changed name or something, but I don't know how they work well enough to spot any differences when viewing the action with a text editor.
All of the computers I tried had win7. Mine is CS6 (v 16.0.2 64-bit), 2 others had CS5 and 5.5.

I have uploaded them here: http://ge.tt/63PjiIU/v/0
The actions all have hotkeys assigned to them. I never noticed it in cs6 when I set up the commands, but in the cs5 computer that I was looking at had conflicts with using f5, f6, f7, and f8. Not sure if yours will too.
The actions are designed for a document with multiple art boards but they will work if you only have one for testing purposes. All the commands are meant for a single object or a single group. Align must be set to art board, proportions constrained, and set the center reference point, but if you don't have them, they still should still function. The art board must be 14" x 11".
Pressing F5 will align object to a position in the upper left corner of the art board. F6, lower left. F7 and F8 will do the same for the right side. The actions will resize the object to a specific width, height is not important.
Adding a modifier of ctrl/cmd or shift should give different actions to the ones listed above. You might want to test those out, but honestly if one works, they should all work.
Let me know if anything is confusing... I made them and they work for me, but I haven’t done any actions in the past and if they are sloppy, let me know.

Error message when installing Flash Player : List of actions not found

I get an error message when trying to install Flash Player.
I use Windows 64 bit with Internet Explorer 64x.
I'm able to download, the installation starts but it stops before completing.
I get this error message (loosely transalated) :
Installation encountered errors

How can I fix this ?
Thank you
Annie

I solved my problem by installing the Flash Player from home.
The network security at work prevented me from completing installation.
Thanks for your help.

Comments not imported from Data Dictionary of SQL Server. SDDM 3.3.0.747

Hi,
SDDM 3.3.0.747 32-bit on Windows 7 64-bit.
Comments are not imported from Data Dictionary of SQL Server 2008. Connection through Microsoft JDBC Driver 4.0 for SQL Server or jTDS 1.2.7
What I have tried? In SDDM DDL generation, Comments in DBRMS for SQL Server are generated with "EXEC sp_addextendedproperty 'MS_Description' , 'Test Comment' ..." so I added extended property named "MS_Description" into SQL Server database, both on table and column. None of them were imported from Data Dictionary into SSDM. I have tried both drivers stated above. Is it a bug or am I missing something?
I've found similar question thread Re: Data dictionary import doesn't import column comments for SDDM 3.0.0.665, so I guess it is a bug when importing with JDBC drivers.

Extended properties were not imported correctly from SQLServer databases at DM 3.3.0.747.
Calls to sp_addextendedproperty and fn_listextendedproperty have been modified.
I don't think it is a problem with JDBC drivers.
A bug fix should be available in the next release of DM.

Mini-DV footage does not import into IMOVIE/ Camera not recognized

Sony Mini DV tapes do not import footage using firewire. Camera is not recognized. I have done all the troubleshooting suggested. unplug, plug in, turn on, off, etc. I have bought new firewires and tried to import with many different mini-dv camcorders, sony, panasonic. It worked before, but not now.
I teach in a multiple mac computer lab and have 20 computers, non of them import, although they did earlier. Student-use film lab. HELP!

Hi Harm,
Yes, that's exactly what I do with my EX3 footage too - ignore the XML error messages. That's a bit buggy in it's own right, well, not buggy but it should really recognise the EX folder/file structure and ignore the XML files - maybe one for a feature request!
The 350 is a great camera - very much more sensitive and lower noise than the EX3.
I still like the EX3 though, as it's small and light (relatively!) - the 350 is very light though in comparisson to other shoulder mount cameras. Nice low power consumption too
Some things I miss from the EX3 - like the joystick menu button and the direct edit of parameters on the VF that the EX3 has. I also like the EX3 picure profile system over the 350 way of storing profiles (more similar to the 700 I believe).
Cheers,
Paul.

Every time I open Iphoto I get the following message: "A photo has been found in the Iphoto library that was not imported. Does anyone have any suggestions?

Quit iPhoto and to to the iPhoto library (by default in your pictures folder) - right click (control click) on it and select show package contents - find the folder named import (on importing) and drag it to the desktop - DO NOT MAKE ANY OTHER CHANGES - launch iPhoto and you will be fine.
Open the import(ing) folder and if there is nothing in it that you need move it to the trash and empty the trash
