Animating Text Issue in Ps CS4 Extended

Hi,
An issue with animating text in Ps CS4 Extended. Graphics on seperate layers animates from frame to frame without problems.
However when I add text, first off stage and on stage after a few frames, it automatically appears on every frame...
I tried to add text as a text layer or as a text imported as a jpg file and the same happens...
I just want to make text move onto the stage at certain moment.
Any ideas would be great.

From the Premiere forum...
Go to this link and scroll down to the 1st question after the troubleshooting steps... it links to software that will read the video file and give you the codec that is used... report that information, and someone who uses PS-Extended should be able to tell you if it is compatible (or, it might even be listed in the user guide) http://premierepro.wikia.com/wiki/Troubleshooting
There is also information at the wiki about converting files http://premierepro.wikia.com/wiki/FAQ:How_do_I_convert_my_files%3F

Initial issues with PS CS4 Extended Windows XP Pro.

Initial issues with PS CS4 Extended Windows XP Pro.
CS3 worked just fine but had many issues with Bridge CS3. So frustrating that the $$ to upgrade to CS4 seem worth it. Mostly works OK with the following exceptions:
1. Sometimes the file menu selections are non-selectable grey including fundamental functions like Open and Exit not even clicking on the x will allow PS to close! I found a workaround, I can select a tool that is not currently selected (like the crop or brush) and now the menu items appear.
2. The Arrange Documents drop down menu is blank except for the lower text portion. All icons are missing. Roll over text popup shows what is supposed to be on the menu but no icons.
3. I have setup Bridge CS4 to auto start at logon. Works OK but sometimes for whatever reason stays busy after I close. Task Manager shows Bridge using up to 25% of CPU time and the program is not even open!
5. I purchased a couple Canon EOS 50Ds as backup cameras for our business. Worked last week with CS3 and Bridge with Raw 4.6 upgrade. Does not work with RAW 5.0 in CS4bummer!

I had the same problem with blank/missing "Arrange Documents" icons. And I use NIK and OnOne plugins (CS4 & Vista). These plugins are all supposed to be compatible with CS4 and I use them ALOT - so I refused to remove them. Today I also started having a problem with an error re: needing to install a printer before I could select print functions.
I found the answer to both problems!! While researching the error message I found information from Adobe support stating that you should:
1. Quit Photoshop
2. Vista: Rename the Users\[username]\AppData\Roaming\Adobe\Adobe Photoshop CS4\Adobe Photoshop CS4 Settings\Adobe Photoshop CS4 Prefs.psp file to Adobe Photoshop CS4 Prefs.old
Windows XP path: Documents and Settings/[username]/Application Data/Adobe/Adobe Photoshop CS4/Adobe Photoshop CS4 Settings/Adobe Photoshop CS4 Prefs.psp
3. Start Photoshop - it will create a new preferences file.
My print error message is gone AND I have Arrange Documents icons!!!

Satellite A200 - Picture issue with Photoshop CS4 Extended

Hi Everyone
I have a Toshiba Satellite A200 notebook and I have tried to install Photoshop CS4 Extended yesterday.
There appears to be a problem as every image I bring up looks like this (image link to my flickr account to show what is happening) http://www.flickr.com/photos/meg_and_fred/2990212103/
I have updated the ATI driver, uninstalled and reinstalled CS4 and its still not working. I also have Photoshop Elements 6 which is opening the same images perfectly so it mus be a CS4 and A200 compatibility problem - does anyone know how to fix this or what the problem could be?
Thanks so much!!

Maybe you should update your Photoshop CS4 Extended software.
In my opinion this could solve this issue because as you said the picture can be edited properly using the Photoshop Elements 6.
I think its ONLY a Photoshop CS4 Extended software issue.

Photoshop CS4 Extended, issues with resolution and font sizes on Mac

I have Photoshop CS4 Extended, which worked fine on my old 15 inch Macbook Pro, I think it was 2011 and had high definition display.
I now have a new 15 inch 'late 2013' Macbook Pro with retina display (2880 x 1800), and OS 10.9.4
I have 2 problems:
1) Using photoshop now, the resolution is a lot worse than with my old computer, even though my screen is higher resolution.
For example, the images themselves are worse resolution on my display, far less crisp and more pixelated than any of my other programs. And even the windows such as 'save as...' screens are terribly pixelated also. Is there a way to fix this?
2) When using the type tool, I cannot find how to change the size of the font. There used to be numbers which I could change, and also select the font type, both on the top menu bar always visible. Now there is not anymore. What there is there at the top, is what looks to be a bar on top of another bar. The top layer bar is on the left and reaches about one third of the way across the top, and I can drag it by its corner so it can extend more, but not less. It looks like there are things behind it which I cannot see, because it is over the top of them. Perhaps the text size and font options are stuck behind that. What can I do?
Many thanks!
Justin

Hi JJMack, you said "Seems like you want a low resolution display hook and external display to it." I do not know what that means. I did a google search for "low resolution display hook" and it came up with zero results. Also I do not have an external display, only my laptop.
Does anyone know what I can do to fix this issue? I would greatly appreciate any solution.
Thank you!

Deploying Adobe Photoshop CS4 Extended over Network - issue

Hi all,
I'm hoping anyone can help me with this issue that has plagued me for a few weeks! First of all, here's the details I have:
* Adobe Photoshop CS4 Extended - downloaded media from Adobe website
* Creative Suite Deployment Toolkit - again, downloaded from Adobe website
* Installing to Windows XP with SP3
I ran Creative Suite Deployment Toolkit and set it up including our Volume Licensing key and it output some files including the XML files. I double clicked the AdobeUberInstaller.exe file and it got installed without any issue.
However, when I ran it as silent install via our SMS, it always get stuck at Adobe AIR install with the install log from
C:\Program Files\Common Files\Adobe\Installers\Adobe Photoshop CS4 11.0 09-02-2009.log
with this at the end of the log file:
[     320] Wed Sep 02 14:12:09 2009 INFO

Checking bootstrapper progress
and so on, with no end in sight.
I have left it more than hour. I also have left it all day, the log file is always full of it. I even "told" Creative Suite Deployment Toolkit not to install Adobe AIR and it still tries to install it anyway. I checked the AdobeUberInstaller.xml file and it has <Action>donotinstall</Action> marked for Adobe AIR. So I'm not even sure why it's trying to install it.
This happens on a PC that has Adobe AIR installed. I tried on another PC where it doesn't have Adobe AIR installed and I still get the same thing.
I'm running out of ideas how to get this to work and this is why I'm here to seek further help from you... help?
Has anyone seen this issue before and if so, what was the fix to get it to work?
Many thanks,
Tony Sutton

Hi all,
I received this e-mail from Adobe, so I thought I'd share this with you all for future ref.
Air needs to contact Adobe to get a certificate.   I would recommend not installing this as part of the suite and push out seperately. At any rate, if you AIR remotely, you will need to set the proxy to allow for the certification process. The other option might to create a snapshot of Air with the certificate already in place.
Here is KB article on it   http://kb2.adobe.com/cps/408/kb408168.html
Thanks all.

Font color issue with animated text in Captivate 5

When I prepare a new animated text and open the property and then click the square to choose a color , I only get a little part of the color panel (when I click the color box) and I have no possibilities to enter the color code either:
I'm working with a Windows XP, 64 bits desktop and I have Captivate 5 version 5.0.1.624.
Any ideas to solve this issue would be appreciated as it is becoming urgent for me.

@Lieve: You're on the French version of Captivate 5 aren't you?
Can you provide a screenshot of what the Animated Text font colour dialog looks like on your PC and upload it here?
This is what that box looks like for me:
It seems that on this user's PC the colour picker isn't able to float on top of the dialog as it should.
I encouraged Valerie to post her issue on this forum in the hope that one of the Captivate developer technicians would chime in with a possible solution. I think this one has got to be some kind of bug due to a language version of Cp.

CS4 Extended Serial Number issue

Hi
while registering CS4 Extended I have a problem. As Upgrade Version only CS3 Extended is shown, not my valid CS3.
Any ideas?

Serial number issues can only be handled by calling Adobe.

Issues with Panarama's in Adobe PShop CS4 extended

Hi folks... probably an easy answer here but it has evaded me so far so hopefully someone here might know what is up.
I shoot up to 6 sometimes 7 (vetically shot) images for a pano in Raw. I shoot vertically so I don't loose as much sky or foreground. I then pull the shots in using Bridge. I open Photoshop CS4 extended, click on the pano menu item, select my images, choose the top left side choice and click on all three fixes bottom right under the window... and press OK. Once PShop is finished the shot is set up as a portrait style with some images put together and some not. I could have three beautifully put together up top then just below it only one shot and below that, the balance put together.
Why would this be in a portrait format when it is wider than deep?
Why in pieces still?
Is there a limit to the shots needed to be used?
Thanks Kate

Chances are you simply haven't overlapped the shots enough for it to find the commonality between the shots - or something changed between shots. I have had very good luck with Photoshop's Photomerge function if I overlap shots by about 1/3 each.
Is there water in your shots (e.g., with waves on the surface)? That changes from second to second at the detailed level.
Could you make small versions of the shots that don't seem to want to stitch together and post them here? I might be able to better help nail down the reason it's not stitching them after looking at them.

I'm trying to process RAW file images from my SanDisk memory card on Adobe Photoshop CS4 Extended and am unable to do so. Which level Adobe Photoshop do I need to process SanDisk images?

I'm trying to process RAW images from my new SanDisk Ultra memory card and unable to do so. I'm currently using Adobe Photoshop CS4 Extended, is this the right one or do I need to update?

Problems exporting Video from Photshop CS4 extended

Hi Guys
I have a multilayered psd file (RGB 8 bit, 955 px x 600 px) and have created an animation (8 seconds) using the animation panel in timeline mode. File consists of 4 image layers and 3 text layers. When I choose File/export/render video, The quicktime options are grayed out and all I can do is render jpgs from the sequence.
Any ideas? I know that I have done this about a year ago without problems.
Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks Mathias...I think.
Anyway, I figured out my problem and wanted to share in case anyone else runs into this.
I was working on a new laptop (purchased expressly for CS4). After pulling what little hair out that I have left this morning, I decided to try it on my desktop machine. Lo and Behold, Quicktime options were available.
Idiot that I am, I assumed (yeah I know) that Quicktime would have been pre-installed on the laptop. Welllllll no, I didn't have Quicktime installed at all.
Installed Quicktime and all is well.
Thanks for your help. If you need me, I'll be sitting in the corner wearing a dunce cap.

Jumpy video after Exporting Quicktime Movie from PS CS4 Extended

I am trying to produce a short training video for work. I created my entire movie in iMovie '09, and decided that it desperately needed some arrows and text to clarify some of the more technical aspects. I exported it as a Quicktime file from iMovie and imported into Ps CS4 extended.
After I finished the editing, I chose to export my video, again as a Quicktime movie.
The export completed, and when I went to review my movie, it was extremely jumpy. Watching the time line on the bottom of the Quicktime screen, I noticed that it was jumping in multiple second intervals. The audio portion seemed normal, but the video kept freezing and scrambling.
I attempted re-exporting the video with the Quicktime settings of Animation, and Frames Per Second set at current.
No difference.
Any ideas what I am doing wrong????

Marian -
Thank you for your response. I am only an amateur video editor, and up until now, I hadn't bumped up against the limitations of iMovie too often. You are definitely correct, it would FAR easier to do these effects in FCE, FCPro, AE, Premiere, etc., except for one thing . . . I don't own any of those programs! (I've already ordered a copy of Final Cut Express, but it stinks to have to spend $200 to get $7 worth of personal functionality.)
I do, however, own the extended Ps CS4. And, to paraphrase the guy on Lynda.com, "You already have it, and you know how to use it . . . It should work for you . . ."
This is the information on the file, it was exported this way automatically by iMovie (They don't give you much control over these functions.)
Unfortunately, I trashed my output from PS as well as the .psd in a fit of rage! It wouldn't take me more than 30 minutes to recreate it . . .
Would it be worth attempting to export it using H.264 instead of the animation Codec?
