Can't Get Droplet to Work

I've never made a droplet before and I can't figure out what I'm doing
wrong.
I'm trying to reproduce the droplet illustrated in this tutorial
http://www.developertutorials.com/tutorials/photoshop/create-photoshop-action-droplets-050 615/page1.html
The problem I'm having is, when I record the open function to open an
image the specific path and filename of the image are hardecoded into
the action, so the droplet will only work for the file I used to make
the action and it must be in the same folder.
Obviously this makes droplets pointless, so I'm obviously doing
something wrong. How do I make the action generic, so it will batch
process all the images in any folder?

I figured it out. For anyone who's interested, the tutorial is
flawed. http://img291.imageshack.us/img291/3012/actiondroplet6lt0.gif

  • Can't get droplet to work in CS4

    Under cs3 I had no trouble creating and using droplets, which is necessary if you want to create any export actions to use in Lightroom.  Although I upgraded to CS4 several months ago, I've only recently tried using droplets in CS4 and consistently receive an error message like the following:

    What goes?  More importantly, how do I correct this.  I am using CS4 in Windows Vista 64, but within the 32 bit install as I am tring to create a droplet using plugins that are only 32 bit compatable.

    According to Help>System info in CS4, I am on 11.0.1.  For some reason the version in the error message is incorrect??

  • Have entrourage and want to use Mail. Can't get it to work.

    I had a macbook and purchased the Microsoft office for Mac which included Entrourage.
    I have now purchased a new macbook Pro and want to begin to use Mail rather than Entrourage. 
    I have Entrourage on my new computer but i can't get it to transfer my information to the the Mail program
    I am on Charter.net at my office and sbcglobal.net at home.
    How can i get this to work.  I can receive on Mail, but i can't send.

    check your outgoing port settings and make sure it's using a specific port and not the default port, also you might want to check to see if it is using SSL, TLS or any other encryption.  Verify the setting from your old machine setup.

    got my password wrong twice and my mini is disable. I connected to iTunes, but can't get it to work. Can some one guide my through?

    If it's showing the red disabled screen due to incorrect passcodes then you may need to put the iPad into recovery mode : http://support.apple.com/kb/ht1808 - you should then be able to reset the iPad via your computer's iTunes and restore/resync your content to it

  • Is there a way to reset my messages account, I can't get iMessage to work on IPad nor Mac osx. Help please this is really frustrating.

    Hi,
    Is there an iPhone involved ?
    If not, what happens  if you remove the Apple ID on the iPad and then set it in Airplane Mode (allow a couple of minutes at this point) followed by re-adding the Apple ID ?
    What, if any error messages are appearing on the Mac when you try to launch the App or Login to the iMessages server ?
    Is the Apple ID linked to an iCloud account ?

  • I bought an IR receiver and an Apple Remote, and I can't get it to work. What am I doing wrong?

    I bought an IR receiver and an Apple Remote, and I can't get it to work. What am I doing wrong? The receiver is a Lenovo eHome OVU430006/01 USB IR Receiver.

    Hello,
    You would need to pair the Apple Remote with the receiver. So I would use the generic Mac/PC receiver and follow these instructions:
    http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1619
    If that doesn't work then check in System Profiler to see if the IR receiver has been recognized by the PowerBook's hardware. You may require the install of drivers for this device to be recognized.
    Best of luck

  • I have a go daddy email account and I can't get it to work on my iPad

    I have a go daddy email account and I can't get it to work on my iPad

    Try turning the email account off and then turn it on again. Settings>Mail, Contacts, Calendars>select your gmail account>Off. Go to the mail app and then come back to the account in the settings and turn it on again.
    If you can't find any other way for the iPad to accept the password, delete the email account and then add it back onto the iPad.

  • I have a Mac Mini and I can't get it to work with my Ricoh Aficio MP 161.  Any ideas?

    I have a Mac Mini and I can't get it to work with my Ricoh Aficio MP 161.  Any ideas?

    The latest Apple driver support begins with the MP 171.
    Here is Ricoh's official driver download page specifically for the Afico MP 161. Note that new drivers for this device were released on Aug 2, and include Lion and Mountain Lion.
    Hopefully, this will solve your device issues.

  • My iPhone 5 went black. I tried pushing the on/off button and the circle button at the same time.  It worked once and then it happened again and I can't get it to work.

    Iphone 5 went black.  Tried pushing on/off and circle at the same time.  Worked yesterday and then did it again today.  Can't get it to work.

    You need to hold those button longer until you see the apple logo, then release, then wait for the phone to boot back up.

    Best if you try and explain what you are trying to acheive.
    Iphoto is a different paradigm than you're used to. I don't understand why you are trying to transfer your edited photos back to an external disk.
    There are tutorials here

    Hi Mike,
    I've checked your account. I see that you just purchased the subscription this morning. The order is still pending processing, which is why you haven't yet been able to log in an use your subscription. It can take 24-48 hours for a subscription to process fully. Once it does, you'll be able to log in and convert files.
    I apologize for the inconvenience.
    Best,

    The iPad 1 is only able to do basic AirPlay, many providers of programming have blocked their apps from working with AirPlay.
