Bridge Image Processor always creates JPEG or TIFF folder, how do I change that behavior?

I have searched the web, Bridge forums, and Photoshop forums, and come up empty-handed. (The strange thing is, I know there used to be a post that answered this question a few years ago.) Anyway, I use Image Processor quite a bit, and it works great except for the annoying behavior of always creating a new folder to store the newly-created images.
I remember the solution is to change some line in a (XML?) file from "JPEG" to "". For the life of me, I can't find which file that is! I think it used to located down inside Application Support. I think.
Thanks for help on this, it's driving me crazy!
Jeff

Thanks for replying! I'm running CS 5.1. Oh, now I see...I've never run Image Processor from within Photoshop, just from Bridge. You're right, it does offer different options than Bridge.
Anyway, I found it what I was looking for.
Open up (don't run!) the Image Processor.jsx file. I opened it up in ExtendScript Toolkit. The path is /Applications/Adobe Photoshop CS5.1/Presets/Scripts/Image Processor.jsx
I'm on line 1574 (in other versions, the line number may vary)
This is what the line says:
var subFolderText = inFolderLocation + "/JPEG/";
Change to:
var subFolderText = inFolderLocation + "//";
Problem solved. Repeat as necessary for other folders you don't want created (TIFF, PSD)
Back to work!

Bridge Image Processor TIFF format

I use Bridge's Image Processor to batch JPEG images to TIFFs before Photoshopping them, but I've noticed that it saves TIFFs with Mac byte order by default.
This isn't usually a problem, but many of these images will move to another department in my organisation for inclusion in eBooks and other digital publications, and the Mac byte order causes issues for them and their production processes, necessitating a batch process back to IBM PC order.
Is there anyway to change the default Image Processor format to IBM PC byte order?

That's what I thought, but the script doesn't have those parameters, so it would probably be a matter of delving deeper than the Image Processor functionality.
I can make batch that would do it, rather than Image Processor, but it would be nice to have this feature built-in.
I'll see what the PS forum has to say.
Cheers.

I have Photoshop CS5 and my image processor and batch tool are gone. How do I get them back?

I have Photoshop CS5 and my image processor and batch tool are gone. How do I get them back?
I went into edit preference and all the start up scrips are selected so what else is there?

When you installed CS5, you have a chance to register it. If you do, your serial number is on file under your Adobe (My Products). If you did not, you have no serial number on file and even worse, no proof you own it.
You do not have your serial number copied down anywhere? Hard to believe you tossed the dvd box and all the documents away.
So Help > Register might give you a chance to do this without you knowing the number.
If not, you may want to consider the Photography Plan. Creative Cloud Photography plan | Adobe Creative Cloud

RAW JPEG PROBLEM I'm new to Aperture and neglected to mark RAW JPEG pairs when I imported (from iPhoto). Now I have two images for each photo. Help!! How can I change this?

I’m new to Aperture and neglected to mark RAW+JPEG pairs when I imported (from iPhoto). Now I have two images for each photo. Help!! How can I change this?

How did you import from iPhoto? If you saw the Import panel with raw -jpeg pairs, then you probably did not import your iPhoto library as library, but as files, and then you will see plenty of duplicates - previews, thumbnails, originls, edited versions. If that should be the case, it would be better to delete the import from iPhoto and to import your iPhoto library again, but this time using "File > Import > Library".
Only that would require compatible versions of iPhoto and Aperture. What are your Aperture and iPhoto version numbers?

After upgrading to Mavericks on my Mac Pro, mail always requires that I type in my password when launching. How do I change that?

After upgrading to Mavericks on my Mac Pro, mail always requires that I type in my password when launching. How do I change that?

If your password is accepted, and Mail connects to the account, but you're prompted for the password repeatedly, take each of the following steps that you haven't already tried. Note: these steps don't apply if the server rejects the password. That's a different problem.
Step 1
When prompted for the password, check the box marked Remember this password in my keychain.
Step 2
Check that the keychain is working.
Step 3
Check that the default keychain is unlocked.

I created an album in iPhoto and every time I click on slideshow it plays the pictures backwards from the order in the album. How do I change that?

I created an album in iPhoto and every time I click on slideshow it plays the pictures backwards from the order in the album. How do I change that?

When running a slideshow from an album it will not run properly if the photos are sorted manually. Sort them by any of the other options, title, date, rating, etc. and it will play correctly.
Send a report of the problem to Apple via http://www.apple.com/feedback/iphoto.html.
If you must sort them manually create the slideshow in the slideshow mode in iPhoto, not from an album.

I downloaded Acrobat XI Pro onto my work computer on Friday. It downloaded in French though I indicated I needed English. I de-installed and re-installed several times but always French. How do I change that option?

Hello,
you could adapt the answer from there Re: Change language in Acrobat XI Pro - It does not work
... and if your Acrobat XI Pro is a part of CC you could work according to this scheme Adjust the install language | CCM >>> I quote: The language for the Creative Cloud applications is different from what you expect.

previously while in bridge, i was able to select tools in the drop down menu and then select image processor to get to the page where i can make tiffs and jpegs. That option is no longer available in the drop down tool selection. How do I make jpegs from my tiffs now in the bridge.

In current Firefox releases the search bar on the about:home page and the about:newtab page have an autocomplete=off attribute that prevents Firefox from saving form data and now show search suggestions just like you get on the regular Google search page.

Wish Image Processor always came up.

Not most innovative request, but gotta let you know. Lot of times I select the image processor (from within Bridge) and it just does not come up. So far----thankfully, it comes up after a quit and relaunch. But hoping not have to do that down the road. appreciate it.

Scrip Error when Action invoked from Bridge Image Processor

I am running Photoshop CC and while I can create a new simple Action and execute it successfully, if the same Action is invoked from the Image processor in Bridge, the Action fails witha script error and messaeg "Sorry, I could not proecess the following file: xxxxxxxxxxxx" In CS6 this used to be related to History entry size but it is not the same in CC. I can execute other actions but NOT the one I just created, no matter how simple it is. Help!

After renew settings in preferences the basic set from PS is active. Go trough it and look around what you can use, explore it.
Most important is scratch disk setting, ammount of RAM and I find it useful to change the cursor setting to the last checkboxes.
Read the manual that came with your copy and or try one of the thousands tutorials that are available either free or for sale. There are very good DVD's that shows you the screen from the teacher on your own screen and so you can see what he or she does. Total Training is a good start but there are others.

I wish to export several still images from iMovie as JPEG or TIFF. Is it possible to do this using iMovie, if so how? Any advice is greatly appreciated. I've already managed to add a freeze frame to extract the desired frame but I can't export it. Thanks.

I wish to export several frames from iMovie as if they were images (like JPEGs or TIFFs). Is it possible to do this using iMovie, if so how? Any advice is greatly appreciated. I've already managed to 'add a freeze frame' to isolate the desired frames but I can't export it. Thanks.

Ach... I found a solution thanks to previous posts which came to light after I'd posted what was obviously a question that had been asked before.

BRIDGE, IMAGE PROCESSOR GONE

Where is the image processor. I saw a CC tutorial with it still there. Our business is switching to CC and we use that daily for Batch Actions on images. How do we get it back? Reinstall??? OR is there a plugin we need now?
THANKS

HI Jeff,
I am having the same problem and despite moving this to the Bridge General Discussion Forum it has not been answered. Can you help?
Thanks in advance

Image processor always on top?

When I use image processor (launched by Photoshop or Bridge) Photoshop go in front (top window) each new picture processed, means every seconds.
It's pretty annoying cause I can't even keep a browser in front...
Does anybody have the same problem?
It comes with CS4 and CS5, on 2 different machines.
How can I fix that?

The Image Processor resize is a fit image type resize not an Image Size dialog type resize. Let say you have a 3:2 aspect ratio camera. Landscale image have 3:2 aspect ratio and portrait have 2:3 aspect ratio. You want the resize your large camera images for the web. You want the longest side to be 600 px. You would set the width and height values 600 px. Your image would be resize constraine to retain their aspect ratios. So landscape images would resize to 600px by 400 px and Portraits would resize to 400 px by 600 px. You can also resize Image fot a device like your 4:3 UXGA display set 1600 in for the width and 1200 for the height Portrait would still be 2:3 with a 1200 px height and Landscape will still be 3:2 with a 1600 px width. When displayed on you 4:3 display the whole images would fit on your display and fil the width or hight depending in the images orientation ther woul be a border on two sides.
Photoshop also shipts with a FitImage Plug-in so you can record using the plug-in in as action. When you do the values you set in the fitimage dialog while recording the action are recorded into the action step. When the action plays back the values are passed to fitimage and the dialog for the step is not diaplayed. Unless you thurn on that steps dialog. If you do you will see the recorded values are set into the dialog. So you don't need to write a script to handle resize for different orientations. It just so happens to be that since CS3 FitImage is a script. So if you want to pass some values to a script. Write the script as a plugin and record as action to pass recorded values. Plug-in scripting support was added in CS3. The script needs to record its dialog setting into the action step and also not display it dialog if it being run from a recorded action step. To learn more read FitImage.jsx in Photoshop's Presets\Scripts folder.

Images are always placed -2pt below base line - how to change?

Hi all,
for small icons that should appear in the text, we use image elements within the paragraph. When I select the placement option at insertion point, then the image is always placed -2pt "above" the base line (thus, actually below the line). If I try to change this then it is reset when I save the topic.
Can I modify the read/write rules to allow manual chnages, or set this globally to 0pt? We use FrameMaker 9, DITA for this project.
Robert

Sorry about the delayed response.
It would take a script or FDK client to automate the setting while editing within FrameMaker. When working with XML, you can, as Michael noted, use attributes to store the anchored frame properties in XML so that you can round-trip them. If you are willing to use FM's default attribute names and values, you don't even need read/write rules.
Another approach, if all instances of an element type are to be treated the same way is to specify the necessary settings in read/write rules. In that case, you can edit in FM not caring how the anchored frames look. When you save as XML and open the result, the r/w rules will kick in and you'll get what you want. For example, you might define an element called InlineGraphic and use the r/w rule:
element "InlineGraphic" {
   is fm graphic element;
   fm property position value is "inline";
   fm property baseline offset value is "0";
In this case, your DTD would not define attributes for the position or baseline offset properties. Whenever you open an XML document, the InlineGraphic elements will come in At Insertion Point with an offset of 0.0 pt.

My ipad mail is synced to my iMac mail account. On iPad, I can only see my inbox and sent messages. I can't see any of the folders I have created on my iMac. How do I do that? Probably a dumb question, but I know there's a lot of smart people out there!

My iPad mail is synced to my private email account, which I organise on my iMac. On iPad, I can only see inbox and sent messages folders, not any of the other folders in my email account I have created on my iMac. How do I get iPad to show my other folders? Probably a dumb question, but I know there's a lot of smart people out there.

If you select a mailbox, you should get an Edit button (easier to see in landscape mode). Clicking the button will provide you with check circles for the messages. You also get Delete and Move buttons at the bottom. Check the messages you want to move and then navigate to the mailbox you want to drop them into. I think as long as you can navigate to a mailbox you can move the messages to it.
In the Mac Mail application and probably Outlook on the Windows side, you also setup rules to move messages to specific mailboxes. If the mailboxes are stored on the server, then you can have the sorting done on the server and they should appear that way on the iPad. If your later messages do not show up, you may need to have the iPad app pulled down more messages until they are all showing.
