Can't batch process jpg files

I get a message that the folder is empty. There are no sub-folders. Works on other folders. Any ideas? Using Elements 13 on iMac, Yosemite. Thanks.

I may have to do with the name of the folder, such as having periods or slashes in the folder name.

Can't batch process opening files with certicate encryption

Using Acrobat 9.0 pro.
I am unable to batch proces files that are certicate encrypted.
When batch processed a dialog message appears that reads;
Cannot open document
No files were processed
I have used the instructions that adobe has for using the associated digital id and ensuring this is logged in.
And also have set preferences for batch processing security method to certificate security, no password and, password security.
FYI: I Don't have livecycle so can't try this.
Can anyone help with a solution for doing this.
I was able to create certificate encrypted files using batch processing so can't understand why I now can't open and print file created this way, since
Acrobat help indicates this can be done.
Adobe instructions indicate this should work??? What's wrong here.
Thanks in advance

Can I batch process 92 files?

am trying to convert 92 mov files to ProRes which were shot on canon 7d. Have set up a droplet, and dropped all the files onto it, but it just hangs for ages without the box popping up to allow me to select the multiple processor box.
AIs this too much for it? I have a pretty fast machine Mac Pro 2.26 Quad Core with 12Gb ram.

thanks NLE. I needed it done through the night, so couldn't really do small batches at a time. I ended up downloading MPEG Streamclip which is free, and am only dropping in the footage just now, but it worked brilliantly - processed them all in one go and did it in about 2 hours. I had 51GB of H.264 files to convert to ProRes. Very disappointed that compressor (on my system) couldn't deal with this easier.
I'll be very intrigued to see how the new canon plugin deals with processing these files (when I figure it out!), and the time it takes to process. It appears to me that MPEG Streamclip might be the easiest way to process these clips in future.

Can I batch process? I need identical effect processing of multiple video files

I have just joined Creative Cloud, so these are very basic questions.....sorry.
I shoot videos of live bands using two cameras, so I usually end up with around 25 separate songs per show and 50 separate files (2 cams, two files per song). All the files are: 1920x1080 resolution, 23.976p frame rate, Pro Res 422 codec.
I currently edit in FCPX and color correct in DaVinci Resolve.
Because of low light conditions, I often need to use the effect Neat Video to remove noise. However, FCPX doesn't like Neat Video: freezes up, will restart rendering sometimes, etc.
So, I need a way to take the color-corrected files from Resolve and process with Neat Video, then import them into FCPX for multi-cam editing. (If Premiere Pro handles Neat Video well, then I may switch from FCPX to Premiere Pro and do it all there.........but I need time to learn Premiere Pro).
So I decided to try After Effects for this. I just tested some files in AE and the Neat Video processing went well.
However, I need to batch process the files if possible. Currently for each file I am:
(1) Setting up a Composition
(2) Adding the Neat Video effect to the file
(3) Using the Neat Video window to adjust settings
(4) Setting the render settings
With my approach I will have to set up 50 separate Compositions.
Questions:
(1) Can I batch process all 50 files, with one set of settings? (I tried using multiple files in one composition, but AE only rendered out the top file).
(2) Can I tell AE that I want the render settings to be the same as the imported files (resolution, frame rate, etc.), rather than having to enter the render settings each time? I just want the rendered files to be identical to the original files, except for Neat Video processing.
Thanks for your help.

I don't think Mylenium understood you. You need to not only bring each of 50 clips into it's own Comp but then you need to apply an effect (Neat Video) to each one before going out to the Render Queue... right?
Here's what I would do. Import all 50 clips into your project. Select all of them and drag to Comp button (on the bottom of the Project panel) or right click - "New Comp from Selection". In the dialog that pops up selct "Single Composition", use dimensions from the clip of your choosing, select "Add to Render Queue" and select "Sequence Layers". Open the Comp and select all the layers (they may already be selected), apply the default Neat Video Effect to all of them (or apply it to one, tweak it, select all the other layers and copy/paste it).
Now download this script...
http://www.redefinery.com/ae/view.php?item=rd_RenderLayers
In After Effects go to File/Scripts/Run Script File and choose the rd_RenderLayers script. Make sure you are happy with the Render Module settings and the file naming and off you go.
You'll have all 50 clips in 1 Comp, with one place to copy effects and then each layer gets output back to an individual file.

Batch-process all files in a directory

I'm relatively new to LabView. I'm using 5.1, and would like to open all the text files in a certain directory, and apply my formulaes to the data contained within each. How can I batch process a whole directory?

Hi,
first of all you need know names of files in your directory: for this purpose use File I/O / Advanced/List directory.vi. This vi get name of directory, pattern (*.txt for example) and returns array of path to files.
For all path use Read From Spreadsheet File.vi that get name of file and return 1 or 2-d array of data.
Now you can apply formula to data.

Batch Process increases file size from 230kb - 5044kb

I'm currently using Acrobat 7 Professional.
I want to use the "Batch" process to re-convert pdf documents that were watermarked using the batch process. We're talking 1000+ documents.
The reason we need to re-convert them is because the watermarked documents are taking more than 4min/page to print, if it prints at all.
I've manually re-converted a few of the documents using "print to pdf", kept the file size at 230kb and with no printing issues.
However, since we have 1000s of these documents to do, most with multiple pages, this would be a very time consuming project.
I've "Batched" "print to pdf" and it also takes care of our printing issues, however, the file size has jumped to 5044kb. Having literally thousands of files to do - this is an issue on our file server.
I've done multiple tests with adjusting the pdf settings in the batch process... some work (and again the file size is large) - some don't allow for printing or slow it way down again.
I understand that it's a "layer" or "transparency" thing that's slowing the printing process and when I mess with it in the batch process, it takes care of the printing issues but not the file size.
Can someone help me please??? I've been working on this for a couple days now and I'm at my limits.
How can I batch process that will flatten layers but give me a manageable file size?
Your help would be GREATLY appreciated - Michelle

I don't know if it can help here, but don't I recall that wayyyy back in Photoshop 7.0 the last File - Save As you have executed sets the JPEG quality for batch File - Save As commands? I am not sure when the "Override Action Save-As Commands" became functional, but try this:
1. Uncheck "Override Action Save-As Commands".
2. Remove the "File - Save As" step you have recorded in your action. The action should NOT save the file.
3. Save any old JPEG file at the quality level you prefer, just to set the "memory" of the quality level.
4. Run the File - Automate - Batch, specifying input and output folders there.
I'll bet it will work.

Can Photoshop Batch Resize Tiff Files?

I have quite a number of tiff files that I want to resize in terms of page dimensions and retain the same resolution / dpi. Can Photoshop batch resize tiff files?

Yes Photoshop ships with a plugin Fit image you can record an action to re-size an image to fit within some number of pixels. Image resolution setting and aspect ratio are not changed however the number on pixels the image will have will be less then or equal to the pixels size set. For example if you set width and height to 2000px the largest size image you could have after the operation would be 1:1 aspect ratio square 4MP 2000x2000. If your image has a landscape aspect ratio the re-sized image will be 2000px wide by less then 2000px high and if Portrait the re-sized is will be 2000px high be less then 2000px wide. Bicubic Interpolation for the re-size.
Once you record the single step action. You can batch the action. You can have batch open the image files and save over the original files or have batch save the resized files in a different location. Fit Image and Batch are both found in menu File>Automate>

what's wrong with this picture

Why can't my computer update elements 9 - keeps coming up as error and try later. I can't now process RAW files it comes up as CR2

why can't do updates for elements 9 keep coming up as "error in system try later" I can't now process RAW files they come up as CR2. This has happened in lightroom 5 also

What is your program - Photoshop Elements 9 or Premiere Elements 9? If Photoshop Elements 9, you have posted in the wrong forum. You have posted in Adobe Premiere Elements Forum (video editing). Although Camera Raw allows for the import of raw format image and dng into a Premiere Elements project as source media, you cannot "process" it in the Camera Raw dialog. You need Photoshop Elements for that.
If your program is Photoshop Elements, please re-post your thread in the Adobe Photoshop Elements Forum or wait for a moderator here to see your thread here and move it from here to there.

Some information that might help as you take care of the above....
Does your current problem exist with and without antivirus and firewall(s) disabled?
Are you getting an error message (number/code) associate with your Help Menu/Update?
The latest version of Camera Raw that is supported by version 9.0/9.0.1 seems to be 6.5. Do you have that currently installed?
If you cannot get the program's Help Menu/Update to work for you, then download and install Camera Raw 6.5 from the following from Adobe
For Mac
http://www.adobe.com/support/downloads/detail.jsp?ftpID=5263
For Windows
Adobe - Adobe Camera Raw and DNG Converter : For Windows : Camera Raw 6.5 update
What camera are you using to generate your raw format images.
Camera Raw plug-in | Supported cameras
If it is not yet supported by 6.5, then
a. move to a later version of Photoshop Elements that supports a later version of Camera Raw that supports your camera.
b. use the dng converter

Can't batch process metadata since updating to 3.5

I used to be able to highlight several images in the Library Grid mode, type in a Metadata Label, and that label would be applied to all of the images. Doesn't work any longer. What am I missing? Doesn't work for Keywords either.

Okay, that worked. Now, I have never seen nor used that "Show Metadata
for Target Photo Only" option. How in the world did it get checked?

How can I batch process files to change name and extention in the latest photoshop cc ?

Hi,
The batch process function has changed design recently and I cannot get it to change file names in photoshop cc 2014.
I keep getting new layers in the first file to open instead of a renamed batch.
I would also like to convert files to jpeg and resize ( at the same time ? )
thank you for help in advance,
christos

Can't help you with CC, but you cannot change files types by merely changing the extension, regardless of program or version.

Reducing file size in batch processes (multiple files)

I am now using a canon XTi 10.5 megapixel camera. I'm loving it, taking tons and pics, and see my memory on my computer shrinking rapidly. I'm not too worried about hard drive space as I can simply buy another hard drive. Where I'm running into problems is on my iPod. I have an 80gb video iPod. It is suddenly full, Almost 1/2 with audio, 1/2 with photos. I'm realizing that I need take the 5-7 megabyte files each (photos) in iPhoto and reduce them down a bit in dimensions and/or jpeg compression.
I use photoshop elements and am familiar with the multiple files option. I've used that a bit, nice feature.
Heres my question:
I know iPhoto is sensitive to manipulation of photos/changes if the changes aren't done through its interface. How can I go about taking the original pics for a number of events (talking about perhaps 2000 pics right now) and batch process them down in size a bit without weirding out iPhoto?
Does iPhoto have an option to batch change files in such a fashion? Is it as simple as finding the originals in the finder and simpy reducing them in size and making iPhoto update its thumbnails?
and how do I make iPhoto update its thumbnails, I forget...
Thanks

If you just want displayable image files on the iPod and not the full sized files then a very good solution, IMO, is to export those photos you want on the iPod to a folder on the Desktop. Then use Resize! to batch change the pixel dimension and the jpg compression level of the files. For my iPod Nano I use 640 x 480 and have Resize! compress them to medium. That gives me files in the 100 KB size range. If you want a smaller file just increase the compressions level a bit. Resize! automatically creates a new folder for the resized images so you can try different levels on the same folder. You can get a lot of photos on your iPod at that size. I then put that folder of resized files in my Pictures folder and have iTunes use it instead of using iPhoto.
Do you Twango?
TIP: For insurance against the iPhoto database corruption that many users have experienced I recommend making a backup copy of the Library6.iPhoto database file and keep it current. If problems crop up where iPhoto suddenly can't see any photos or thinks there are no photos in the library, replacing the working Library6.iPhoto file with the backup will often get the library back. By keeping it current I mean backup after each import and/or any serious editing or work on books, slideshows, calendars, cards, etc. That insures that if a problem pops up and you do need to replace the database file, you'll retain all those efforts. It doesn't take long to make the backup and it's good insurance.
I've created an Automator workflow application (requires Tiger), iPhoto dB File Backup, that will copy the selected Library6.iPhoto file from your iPhoto Library folder to the Pictures folder, replacing any previous version of it. It's compatible with iPhoto 08 libraries. iPhoto does not have to be closed to run the application, just idle. You can download it at Toad's Cellar. Be sure to read the Read Me pdf file.
