Adjustment Layers Not Transferring Properly into PR Pro CS4

Hi all,
Was hoping to get some help with a AE -> PR issue. I'm working in After Effects and Premiere Pro CS4. I have an AE project that has some footage with adjustment layers and some solids that I go ahead and save as a Premiere project. When I open up the saved PR project in Premiere and load the sequence, my adjustment layers and solids have all turned into a block of pure white and no longer retain any of the effects applied to them in AE.
Any ideas what may be casuing this and how it might be fixed? Thanks very much.

> I have forgotten exactly what will transfer from AE to PrPro, but that info is probably around this forum.
The code to import a project from After Effects into Premiere Pro (or vice versa) is the exact same code as that used to copy and paste between the two programs. Here's a page that describes exactly what comes across:
"Copy between After Effects and Premiere Pro"
Here's the important sentence:
"You cannot copy shape, text, camera, light, or adjustment layers to Adobe Premiere Pro."

Adjustment Layers Not Functioning

I have Photoshop CS6 and suddenly I am unable to use adjustment layers. I've been using Photoshop for over 15 years, and the procedure has always been the same; create an adjustment layer then click the circle on the left of that layer, and a dialog box appears where the curves, levels and such may be controlled. Clicking on this circle no longer produces the dialog box.

Thanks again Gene. In the past I've had to throw out the prefs file more than once but it's been so long I forgot that. I don't want to upgrade my OS because I've heard this and that about the higher systems. But what plugins would you recommend?
Not to pester you, though. If you don't want to respond I won't pursue it. Keep up your good work.

How do I import mp4 video files into Premiere Pro Cs4

For sometime now, I've been finding it practically impossible to import video files into premiere Pro cs4 especially mp4 files which happens to be the commonest to me now, as I currently shoot with a Nokia Lumia 920 phone with Windows phone 8 OS. I have tried severally to convert the videos into various other formats using Xilisoft video converter version 7.7.2 and each time I do this, they would either not play fine in cs4 or not import at all.
Please what can I do to be able to import these mp4 files into Cs4 or what format or how do I convert them into a format that would play seamlessly for better editing?
Funny enough, I had once imported video files that were shot with the same phone and they worked well, just wondering why they aren't now.
Please any assistance would be appreciated.
Thanks
NKC

I'm happy to announce to you all that my "mp4 importing" issues has been sorted out. Now I import mp4 shot with the same Windows Phone 8 Device into Adobe Premiere Pro CS4. Only that for the moment, it doesn't play as fast as with ordinary player.
But how did I get it to work, you may wonder;
I simply installed Itunes on the system, I also installed an app called media monkey. I can't say which of the apps did the magic but the next time I tried to import mp4 files into Premiere Pro after these installations, it imported seamlessly.
Obviously there's a link between the required codecs and the itunes itself.
You may want to try it and hope it works for you.
Kindly inform us if it works.
Thank you all.
Cheers.

CS4 I have created compositions in After Effects CS 4 but when I import them into Premiere Pro CS4

CS4 I have created compositions in After Effects CS 4 but when I import them into Premiere Pro CS4 they only appear in the monitor when the play button is activated. The other clips appear without a problem. I noticed that the same situation arises when I dynamically link to Encore CS4. What am I doing wrong?

Thank you Ann. But the problem is when switched on the AE clips on the timeline are only viewable when I start the project (ie press the space bar) and as it also doesn’t appear in Encore I am afraid to spend a great deal of time creating a DVD with these clips not appearing. Any advice?
Regards and again many thanks

Adjustment layers not 'sticking' on animated GIFs

I'm trying to adjust brightness/contrast and saturation over about 30 layers on an animated GIF. Everything looks great until I do a save for web and click on the animate box. At that point, the color/changes drop off completely. It shows up fine when it's just the one layer being shown. And it seems to be showing up on all the layers when I'm in the main edit window. I keep looking and making sure I have the 'this adjustment affects all layers below,' and I do. I even tried saving a GIF with the other setting turned on and I got the same thing.
Anyway, I exported a few GIFs, thinking maybe the adjustment layers would kick in as it saved, but nope. Neither layer saved into the exported GIF.
I'm sure this is just a simple setting I'm missing, but I'm banging my head against the desk at this point. Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thank you!

Thanks! I'm still trying my best to sort out why the adjustment layers drop off when I go to animate the GIF ... BUT I did duplicate the adjustment layers -- one for each frame -- and then clicked on the adjustment layers and selected layer and merged them one at a time and it worked. It's still more tedious than I hoped, but not as tedious as trying to adjust each layer on its own and having to input the same exact settings for each layer.
I would still be interested in anyone else's take/advice on applying adjustments to all the layers in an image at the same time and having it cary through to 'save for web.' Animated GIFs are so simple in theory, but I'm finding them to be absolutely one of the most frustrating and tedious things to try and edit/create.

Adjustment layers not working in CMYK MODE?

Hi Guys
I have a photoshop issue and was wondering if you could shed any light on the matter?
When ever i set my document to CMYK mode, some of my adjustment layers become 'un-selectable' such as the Black & White, vibrance and the exposure adjustment layers?
They work fine in RGB mode but was curious if this was common place?
Any information woould be greatful

but surely the black and white one does? or am i wrong there?
It would seem you are.
You can still use Hue/Saturation as a work-around.
how do i go about finding that particular thread?
That’s no thread but a headline in the Help; personally I prefer to download the pdf:
http://help.adobe.com/en_US/photoshop/cs/using/index.html
I am working in cmyk as the poster i am producing is for print, so the document is put into that mode for that purpose.
If you are using/combining photographic images this approach may not be ideal and incurs the risk of overshooting the TAC.
On the other hand if you have lots of text, fine lines or other elements that are supposed to, for example, print in pure black working in CMYK would be called for.

Adjustment Layers not working in Actions CC

I am attempting to use the actions panel to edit a large number of product shots quickly. I have disabled the generator, which was a possible solution I saw in another post, closed my photoshop, opened it up again and tried it on a new file. None of my adjustment layers do what I set them out to do, but they do show up as layers in my layers panel. The only part of the action that works is my smart sharpen. I created the actions in CC and I don't know where to go next.

Now that you disabled the generator plugin, you probably need to record the actions again, because having the generator plugin enabled, plays havoc on
recording actions. (some stuff is not properly recorded with the generator plugin enabled)

Text not saving properly in Acrobat Pro XI

I use Adobe Acrobat XI Pro. When I use the add text function, everything shows up correctly. I save the file and close it. Later on, when I open the saved file, some of the text (especially capital letters and symbols) show up as little boxes with an X in them. I have to highlight, cut, and paste everything in order for the text to show back up. Once it happens one time, it usually does not happen again. However, if I open up a document, fix the boxes, add additional notes, those notes then turn into boxed Xs the next time I open the document.
How do I fix this?

Hi rdh2209,
Is Acrobat 11 updated to the latest patch v11.0.09?
Does this happen with any specific font?
Try repairing Acrobat and check if it resolves the problem.

Editing Adjustment Layers Not Working

Using Photoshop Elements 10. I am unable to edit an Adjustment Layer. When I doubleclick the layer thumbnail or click layer content options, nothing happens. This is the case with new files as well as files that had adjustment layers created with Photoshop Elements 6. Fill layers work ok, but adjustment layers such as Levels and Hue/Saturation won't work....need help desperately.
Thanks

Good evening. I am using PSE 11 Mac version and I am having the same issue as the original post. I am unable to edit adjustment layers. No problem with fill layers.
I have tried your solution, which worked on deleting the file, but PSE 11 is still not letting me do anything with the adjustment layers.
As an FYI, I am also unable to select any of the "Window" menu selections, such as "Actions", "Histogram", etc. I am attaching a quick screen capture to show the menue that I am talking about.
Any help with this is greatly appreciated. Thank you all.

Adjustment layers not opening mask anymore

On my laptop I choose an adjustment option and it creates a new layer and layer mask. On the imac it only creates the layer with the adjustment. I have to manually add the mask.
I can't find a preference or setting or anything to get the two to behave the same way.
Regards,
Kelly

Inconsistent from Photoshop UI as well as from Actions. And becase I know what will cause them to fail. I can create actions and scripts that I know will work no matter how they are set. The step will work the same way no matter which way the options are set.
For example disable add layer mask you wrote you have no problem doing that. Do a Ctrl+A (select all) then add an levels adjustment layer to the current layer. You will find that the levels adjustment layer is added with a layer mask. Photoshop will work that way in actions and from its UI. So I can record and add adjustment layer and know for sure a layer mask will be added no matter how a user set the fly-out option. I can also use Photoshop menu Layer>New Adjustment Layer>Type. And in its dialog I can Check use previous layer to create clipping mask. The Adjustment layer will be clipped no matter which way the fly-out option is set.
These options breakes Photoshop original design they are bad options and their implementation is poor. Actions and scripts can not set these options. Scripts can not find out how they are set either. You write Plug-ins do you add adjustment layers in any of them?
Without using these bugs automating adjustment layers is hit and miss. You would not know the state of the adjustment layer you would not know if you had to add a layer mask or modify or replace the existing mask. You would not know if the adjustment layer applied to all lower layer or just the previous layer.
Its a good thing you don't use such action for they could have problems....

Effects on adjustment layers not working in PPro CC 2014

I am trying to use an adjustment layer to add an effect to my entire project (about 3 minutes). When I add the adjustment layer and the effect, nothing happens. I can apply the effect directly to a clip and it works fine.
Am I missing something or is this a bug?
Thanks for the help,
Catherine

Mmmm.. maybe there is indeed an issue with the adjustment layer, I have a project that I opened up and wherever I have adjustment layers, they all show as black image...if I check off the effect, then i see my footage underneath.. but as soon as I add an effect (in this case, brightness and contrast + Tint), then it goes to black... changing the blend mode doesn't do anything either...

Adjustment Layers causing clips to stutter Premiere Pro CC

I'm working on a music video and I have a 2:35 letterbox preset that I added to an adjustment layer. I added this to the adjustment layer and placed it over all the clips so I don't need to apply it to every single clip. Of course that's the way adjustment layers work. But on some parts of my timeline when the play head reaches certain clips it stutters or when it reaches a clip with a simple dip to black transition the clip stutters again. I know its the preset that I have applied to the adjustment layer because when I disable it or remove the adjustment layer or remove the effect from the adjustment layer the clips play fine without any issues. Can some one tell me why this is happening. My computer has more than enough power to handle this. I'm running a 8 core MacPro, SSD drive, 22gigs Ram and a ATI Radeon 5770 graphics card.

Hi AzzieScott,
Thanks for the link. Please mention, the types of footage you have in your project. If possible, please mention the make and model of the camera if you have captured the footage.

Vinay

Adjustment layers not editable?

I have just upgraded to CS4 and am trying to add an adjustment layer, but when I click on the icon at the bottom of the palette and select Hue / Saturation I don't get the actual adjustment any more.
All I get is the adjustment layer showing in the layers palette.
I can click on Edit Adjustment... BUT NOTHING HAPPENS. I don't get the adjustment dialogue.
I have tried adding an Adjustment Layer from the Layers menu, but I still miss out the dialog stage and end up with the adjustment in the layers palette but again no way to edit it.
Is there a new way to add adjustment layers?
Is there a new hidden preference somewhere?
I am using a Mac with OS 10.5.7 and a 2 x 2.8 Ghs Quad-Core Intel Xeon MacPro.
Any ideas?
C

Welcome to CS4. Check out the adjustments panel here: http://help.adobe.com/en_US/Photoshop/11.0/WS3B030337-01D1-45b4-A006-E3ECA67B14B9.html
There are some tricks to returning to CS3 behavior. I just use CS3 when I get fed up with the non-modal (or something) brilliance.
