Colored lines in images from Photoshop CS2

One of our users is having a problem with colored, horizontal, 1 pixel lines intermittently appearing in photos worked on in Photoshop CS2 (as far as I know he is in Tiger - unable to check presently as I am at home and he is in his home and everybody is off on holidays...). I will ask him about OS etc, but will probably not get an answer immediately.
Does somebody maybe remember what causes this (if the description is enough)? Reminds me of the white lines in images sometimes talked about. But these are colored, horizontal. I did a forum search and a kb search but found nothing.

Also try adding - bad Ram corruption - to your search as these are also symptoms of bad ram
Typical symptoms of bad Ram in Photoshop include rows lines patches of bad pixels on screen that also print (the actual file is being corrupted). If the bad pixel areas are on the monitor, but do not print (the actual file is not corrupted), video card or video-card drivers are prime suspects.
A bad cable, bad card, bad switch, bad/misconfigured router, bad repeater, bad termination, bad wiring, bad hard drive, bad controller, bad connections, bad logic board, bad CPU just about anything between your computer and other computers can also cause these symptoms in Photoshop, said Adobe computer engineer Chris Cox.

  • Lightroom won't open an image in Photoshop CS2

    I have Photoshop 1.1 on a PC running Windows XP. I can't open a Lightroom image in Photoshop CS2 through the "photo" menu because the menu selection to open an image in Photoshop is dimmed. Also in "Preferences" in the "external editors" tab it says "Photoshop not found." My Photoshop is on the same drive as Lightroom. Am I wrong in assuming LR should open an image in CS2?
    In a related matter I opened a Photoshop customer support case about this, but did not receive a reply. Is this typical of Adobe? Isn't this the kind of question they should answer even without a paid support plan?

    Richard,
    What I did when faced with a similar situation was to go to Control Panel, and select Add or Remove Programs, then select Uninstall or Change for Adobe Photoshop CS2, then when prompted whether to Uninstall or Repair, choose Repair. This will fixup all the registry entries that appare to be missing from your system.
    Works for me at least.

  • How do I resize an image in Photoshop CS2?

    Hi! I'm trying to resize an image in Photoshop Cs2 with OUT making it grainy or blurred. Please help!? I know there's some key you can hold down while dragging with the mouse but eh I forgot it! o_0 please help!

    Jody...
    If you have a vector version of the logo, the smartest thing is to resize it as vectors to the size you want, and
    then
    rasterize it.
    Case in point:
    I was trying to make a 16px × 16px favicon for my blogspot site, and the only way I could get the details to appear nice and clean was to create the entire thing from shape layers, transform them all in one go to fit inside a 16px × 16px box I defined using guidelines, and THEN rasterize it using the Save For Web dialogue.

  • Why does Aperture crash when importing modified image into Photoshop CS2?

    I have been using Aperture 2.1.4 for the past 2 years and really like the interface. But, I've had one nagging problem: I begin by scanning all of my slides with the Nikon Coolscan 4000 and save them as large tiff files @ approx. 55mb each. I then import each slide with a custom color profile into Aperture. I then optimize the image including white balance, levels, and color adjustments. When I want to make additional changes that I'm not able to do in Aperture, I attempt to send the image to Photoshop CS2 for further processing. But, at this point, Aperture crashes. After this, I get a message saying "do you want to re-open Aperture or quit?" Additionally, I often get the message "Aperture has applied new settings. Do want to keep these new settings or use the original settings?" Since I don't know what will happen if I choose "use the new settings," I always select "keep the original settings." And, when I open Aperture again and try, again, to send the image to Photoshop CS2 to edit, Aperture crashes again. Has anyone had the same or similar problem who can give me some ideas of how to solve this issue! Thanks.

    Welcome to the forums!
    It sounds like there may be a permissions issue between the two apps, Aperture using one and PS another.
    1. Are you logged in as an administrator?
    You need to be.
    2. Where is your library stored, is it in the picture folder of your user directory?
    If so moving it in to the general area of your MacHD may help get over some of these issues.
    3. Have you run any of the Ap First Aid steps? Have a read of this page;
    Ap2
    http://support.apple.com/kb/HT2945
    Ap3
    http://support.apple.com/kb/HT3805
    4. Is it possible that the upgrade to Ap3 would get you around the need to jump into PS?
    Start with these ones and then come back letting us know how you go.

  • What settings are best to export sharpened images from Photoshop to use in Final Cut?

    I need to give a professional photographer the correct dimensions to export her images from Photoshop for me to use in Final Cut. I told her:
    1080 x 1920, 300 dpi, and also to Convert Images to Apple RGB (Final Cut doesnt work well with Adobe RGB, I am told). Her images have alot of heavy sharpening on them--she is an artist--and when i import them into Final Cut, many of the lines that should be crisp are zig-zagged, and if I apply motion to them, they "shake."
    My problem is specific to images that have been highly sharpened in Photoshop; i have imported lots of professional images before with no problem. I am on deadline and hope someone out there will see this.

    You were right about trashing the finalcut plist. As well as a very specific set of directions I now have put together from what you and others have said elsewhere, and this is it, i hope it helps others with their Canon XHA1 and Final Cut Express HD:
    Trash the final cut preferences (plist) in your Home - LIbrary.
    go into the Canon XHA1 menu, make sure that you're not set to down-convert to DV.
    Get out of the menu. Shut the camera off,
    plug in the firewire cable to both the camera and computer,
    and turn the camera back to VCR mode.
    Open up Final Cut, and go to Easy Setup ,
    choose HDV- Apple Intermediate Codec 1080i60
    This worked beautifully but took me nearly four hours to figure out, including researching the web and experimenting in FCE HD

  • Cannot direct upgrade from Photoshop CS2 to CS5 Extended

    Despite the information in various spots on Adobe's website, it appears that it's not possible to simply upgrade from Photoshop CS2 to CS5 Extended. After entering the CS5 serial number, the installer asks for the serial number of a "qualifying product". This includes a dropdown list that only has
    Photoshop CS5
    Photoshop CS4 Extended
    Photoshop CS3 Extended
    Here's the view:
    Entering the CS2 serial number == fail.
    A call to Adobe support get past this issue, basically reading out a challenge/response from the installer to the guy on the phone. But this seems remarkably stupid to me. Was it really more effective to force me (and anyone else following this upgrade path) to call tech support just to install the software I just past $350 for? And if this was the plan, why not SAY SO ON THE ADOBE WEBSITE?!?
    Has anyone else run into this issue? If so, was calling tech support the only way out?

    You are correct in wishing Adobe made it clear that you do need to go through Customer Service to accomplish this.
    Most users make the purchase through Adobe and straighten this out before installing.

    Hi Vikas
    I export files from Photoshop as png's at 72 dpi.  
    Here is our current holding page.  http://www.iheartmylife.co.uk/ All the text on this page has been loaded in as png's from Photoshop along with the image. As you can see none of it is as sharp as it could be.
    Many thanks for your assistance.

  • How to insert cropped images from photoshop without the white background

    Basically all I want to do is take a peice of writing from a video and insert it into another video. To do this I've took a screenshot of the font from the video and imported it into photoshop. I've then cropped/cut/took the the peice of writing I want, letter by letter. I want to be able to insert it into another video, but whenever I attempt to do it, I have the default white background of photoshop. Is there anyway to insert an image from photoshop, without taking the background with it, or even insert a layer from photoshop straight into final cut pro? Sorry if this is confusing.

    I don't think so. I cropped the letters, put them each an individual file, removed the background, saved them as a TIF then tried to import them onto Final Cut Pro, but a white background still appeared in the TIF file. Basically I just want to make the background transparent I believe.

  • Problem: importing a transparent image from Photoshop to Premiere.

    Dear Adobe community,
    I am trying to import a transparent image from Photoshop to Premiere Pro CC. Whatever file format I choose to export from Photoshop, Premiere Pro CC will not import the file correctly. When I import is, two things occur: 1) the image gets imported, but the white background is still there or 2) the image gets an error "The importer reported a generic error".
    Does anyone have an idea how I can get an image with a white background transparent into Premiere Pro CC.
    Specs:
    MacBook Pro (Retina, 13-inch, eind 2013)
    2.8 GHz Intel Core i7
    16GB RAM
    1536MB Intel Iris videocard
    Thanks!
    Christiaan

    You need to make sure the image has an alpha channel.
    Images like jpeg dont have an alpha channel.
    Psd or png do and the image has to be RGB.
    Make sure the background in PS is also transparant.

    How do I bring tags on images from photoshop elements 8 to photoshop CS6

    Ask in the PSE/ PS forums. The simple answer is, though, that unless they are emebedded in the image or exist as sidecar XMP files PS won't use them. It doesn't look inside the PSE catalog files/ database.

    ... which means you have to use the menu /file/write metadata to files so that the tags and ratings are written in the files or sidecar files themselves.

  • Can I upgrade from Photoshop CS2 to CS5 after installing Lion?

    Can I upgrade from Photoshop CS2 to CS5 after installing Lion?   Or should I have done it before installing Lion?

    I think you are missing my point.
    For the last many editions of the creative suite they have each been completely independent. There is no "going over a previous version. Each version stands on its own and is a clean install — as long as you haven't installed that specific version before.
    And "obsolete" is a pretty relative term. With products as complex as the creative suite there are often features (or even whole applications) that change between versions. Many people I know keep earlier versions around, just for that very reason.

  • Problem upgrading from Photoshop CS2 to CS4 Extended

    I purchased the retail box Photoshop CS4 Extended Upgrade (Windows) from a retail store ($349.99 + tax). I am upgrading from Photoshop CS2 and this is the version that the Adobe website says to purchase for this upgrade path. The problem is that CS4 doesn't see my installed, working, activated, and registered CS2 installation so it brings up the next screen offering to allow me to install it as a trial version OR list my qualifying product and serial number. The way that it offers to let me enter my qualifying product is via a drop down box with a single entry of CS3 Extended. No way of entering my CS2 there and it doesn't like my CS2 serial number entered with a CS3 product being shown there (says it isn't a valid CS3 serial number...of course it isn't). Does anyone know how to get this thing to install? Adobe tech support is gone until Monday and then I'll be at work, unable to try anything they might suggest.
    Why does Adobe make upgrades so painful? I remember CS2 was a PITA and took Adobe tech support a week to figure out how to get it to install.

    No, this shouldn't be extended to extended (I wouldn't expect to shell out $350 twice for extended). This is Adobe P/N 65015396 which their website says is for PhotoShop CS, CS2, CS3, and CS3 upgrades and retails for $350. The face of the box is identified as Adobe Photoshop CS4 Extended Windows and the side of the box only says that I must have an "eligible older version of Adobe or Macromedia software." It also says to check the website, which says this P/N is what to buy for my upgrade path. A mess? YES!!!

  • Printing banner images from photoshop CS3

    Hi, I have successfully printed banners 1200mm x 297mm from my Xerox Phaser 7750 and Illustrator (Vector art). When I try to print a photographic image from Photoshop it all prints fine except the last 300mm or so. The image has white bars and properly printed image evenly spaced from top to bottom of the print. I have reduced the resolution and file size but the problem is still there with wider bars the lower the resolution. The original image was 160mb but I have the same issue with a 20mb image. ALso tried placing in Illustrator but get similar problems.
    I assume this is a memory issue but I thought lowering the file size drastically would fix it, yet it doesn't. The Printer has a relatively low amount of memory (384mb) but I would like to know if this is the real cause before I dive and buy more memory - big chips are still expensive on this.
    Any help would be very welcome.
    Thanks. Ant

    Hi, I will try printing from inDesign but I have managed to get an image to print out by changing the quality in the print driver to standard - it was previously on 'Enhanced' or 'Photo'. I had tried from Illustrator and had similar problems (printed OK with Illy created art though) so thought it may be a printer memory issue which does seem to be the case. I assumed that by reducing the file size/resolution it would print but it seemed to be the image quality that uses more computing power than the pixel count of the file. I guess a different RIP may also help as it could use the much higher RAM of the Mac rather than the printers meagre 384mb.
    I had originally thought it may be a P/Shop issue as I had problems printing to Epson inkjet some months ago and then Epson and Adobe seemed to blame each other!
    Thanks for the reply.
