CS4 opens unchanged file with changes made to different saved file

Ok, I searched for this but couldn't find anything. Probably because I have no idea what is happening. 1) I opened a raw file from a CD in photoshop cs4, lets call it photo1.nef. 2) I saved the file with a different name on my HARD DRIVE after making changes, photo1b.tif. I did not in any shape or form save the file on the CD (can't anyways). 3) Now, whenever I open the original file, photo1.nef on the CD it opens with all the changes I made previously to the file saved as photo1b.tif (remember this is the original unchanged file not the file I changed). But, when looking at thumbnails it appears to be the unchanged version of the file. I have closed photoshop and deleted all my temp files and still it opens the file with the changes, even though other programs open the file in it's original state without any of my changes. How do I stop this? I think I may be going nuts over this! Help! My wife is laughing at me when I show her.

Sounds like you may be using a centralized cache for your Camera Raw adjustments (as opposed to sidecar XMP files). Check your preferences inside Camera Raw or do an Edit>Camera Raw Preferences from Bridge.
You should be able to clear the edits by right-clicking the image in Bridge and selecting Develop Settings>Clear Settings.
Only Adobe programs are going to use those edits by the way. That's why opening the file in other programs doesn't show them.

Yes, I just want to cover up all the pages for those particular area of document numbers.
Nothing sensitive about it. I just want to show the correct document numbers on all pages in print out.
So, I wanted to cover up by comments, but commenting on each page will be difficult. So, I wanted to comment the same on all pages.

I am trying to organize a zip file with a bunch of links and files. But when I drag an image file to a folder, it always "Snaps to grid" instead of just landing where I put it. All of the files are going into the same zip file but I want them visually in the space that I put them and not at the bottom of the snap to grid folder location they are looking like. I am trying to drag and drop files in groups so that I can group them for now, but image files always do their own "sort by" when I drag them from my web pages. Links don't do it though. I tried resetting the folder, and deleting the DS files. No luck.

I have difficulty pasting text into the file name field(prefix only) while saving files.

OS: WinXP sp3
FF: 3.6.3
I have difficulty pasting text into the file name field (prefix only) while saving files. example: File name is Pic123.jpg and I want to rename it ABC123.jpg and I have ABC loaded into the WinXPsp3 clipboard. When I highlight\right-click\delete "Pic" then attempt to paste the ABC, I get either no reaction, or upon multiple paste attempts, the ABC is appended to the end of the file, after the extension, as "Pic123.jpgABC". If I delete this unwanted suffix, or repeat the process several times, eventually I can delete the unwanted portion of the prefix and paste the desired text. Sometimes it works fine first try, but mostly it takes several tries. I'm using Firefox 3.6.3 but the problem existed in whatever previous version I had too. This issue only occurs when using the delete/paste; I can always manually change the name by typing. Thank you for your help.

Start Firefox in <u>[[Safe Mode|Safe Mode]]</u> to check if one of the extensions (Firefox/Tools > Add-ons > Extensions) or if hardware acceleration is causing the problem (switch to the DEFAULT theme: Firefox/Tools > Add-ons > Appearance).

HELP PLEASE! Export Aperture 1 Library and Import to Aperture 3? Or another way to transfer files WITH changes into new MacBook Pro?

Hi everyone,
I recently purchased a new MacBook pro with Retina display, to better manage Aperture and Photoshop. I took the advice of the genius (and after spending all night messing with permissions, etc.), opted out of using Setup Assistant or Migration Assistant and decided to transfer my files manually (as the two systems weren't merging properly the first time -- it was a giant mess). Long story short, I tried to transfer everything from my previous MacBook (operating on 10.5.8 with Aperture 1), and Aperture 3 couldn't handle it. It was crashing, and crashing so badly that NO button could be activated in the program (I FINALLY got Aperture working by disabling previews, and by moving from a managed library to a referenced library).
I initially dragged and dropped all photos from my previous MacBook to my external, and imported. I obviously lost folders, edit history and any other information that I needed to know what edits had been done on the file. Additionally, any movie that had been imported into Aperture was corrupt (the file was not transferring over correctly). I searched and searched for different methods, and finally found that I could export each project from my original MacBook as a "Library" and consolidate masters, or not, etc. I took the time and did this for each project. When I went to import these into Aperture 3, it said I was not able to because the libraries were from a previous version of Aperture.
Is there any way to bypass this? Or another way to transfer my projects? I understand I won't be able to do this for my entire library... but I'm wondering if there's any way to transfer my changes made, projects and details from Aperture 1 to Aperture 3? (and for those who might pose upgrading my original MacBook as an option, I cannot. It's too old. I think the best I could uprade to is Aperture 2, IF i can update the OS. Though, I definitely don't think I should be forced to do that since I've aleady re-invested in a new computer, AND had to re-buy Aperture for the new one.
Any/all advice is VERY much appreciated, as I really want to move forward and FINALLY start appreciating this program and computer (i.e. my investment) and move forward business wise. Thank you!

Hi Jack,
Thanks for responding (as it seems as though no one else has been able to provide any insight as of yet)! Not sure if you saw my recent post, but the version of Aperture on the 2008 MacBook has been upgraded to 3.1.2 (not sure how; I bought it in 2009, but only have OS X 10.5.8... which apparently can't house 3.1.2 of Aperture, but hey, like many other anomalies i'm encountering, I'm no longer surprised!). I am unable to upgrade it any further, as it warns me that my OS X does not fit the requirements. I exported the projects as libraries; however, like I posted before, apparently these are from too old of a version for the new Aperture (3.3.1) to handle and import.
It's getting to the point where I'd almost pay to upgrade the OS X on my previous MacBook (10.5.8) to something newer in order to THEN update Aperture to a newer version; however, my previous MacBook simply cannot handle this (the specs are awful -- hence my decision to save up and upgrade to the newest MBP with Retina).
I've spent hours upon hours transferring files, libraries as projects, previews, versions, even masters (though, apparently some of them aren't accessible?) with no luck. I've rebuilt the library and reprocessed everything. And this is all after having to return one MBP already since Aperture 3.3.1 is glitch-y as it is, and froze everything for having a "managed library". So, now that I know that I have to deal with a referenced library in Aperture... I just need to actually transfer my previous library to my new one (hopefully WITH adjustments since these are years worth of photos and work).
Again, any help is appreciated. I've lost enough sleep, time, and vision health over this at this point.
Also, I know Migration Assistant is an option, I was told that it wouldn't work properly anyway because of the different operating systems, and the potential for problems.

My file was changed from psd to "5 file" and won't open

Hi,
I just spent 2+ hours woking on a difficult mask, saving as I worked.
I left for dinner and closed down photoshop.
When I returned I couldn't open my file. This message appeared: could not complete your request because it is not the right kind of document
The file is no longer a psd is a "5 file".
Any suggestions to what happened to my file and how can I get ps to open it?
Thanks,
Alison

It sounds like you have Windows set to hide the extension of common file types, which means that a photoshop file called Pix03.psd will show up in Windows Explorer and in file open/save dialogs as Pix03 with the file type Photoshop file. This is not desirable because it means you don't know what your files are actually named. It also makes it harder to fix situations like this.
I would strongly suggest that you open Windows Explorer (My Computer icon, or WindowsStart+E), then go to Tools > Folder Options > View and UNcheck "Hide extensions for known file types."
Once you've done that, you will see your file names as Pix03.psd (the ".psd" is the "extension" that you need to see). In Windows Explorer, or a File Open dialog with the criteria set to All Files (*.*), find the file you are having trouble with. It will have a .5 extension, like Pix03.5. Click on it once, wait a second, and click again. This will let you rename it. All that you need to change is the extension, so click at the end, backspace over the "5" and replace it with "psd". That should make your photoshop file openable in Photoshop again.

I am having trouble opening files with a psa extension. These files come from space planning software and I was told that Photoshop elements would be able to open files with a pas extension. Does anyone have any advise?

Does anyone know why I am unable to open psa files with elements 13. I read on the internet that elements was the software that I needed. However, it does not work. The files are coming from space planning software.

In older versions of Elements PSA files were associated with Photoshop Album which has now been replaced by the Organizer. Elements has no 3d functionality for supporting space planning files but these files can normally be exported or saved by the originator as a bitmap or pdf file. Those could then be opened in PSE. I suggest you explore the possibilities of file conversion with your original source.

How do you update file name changes made it iTunes to the actual file?

I have changed some song names in iTunes but these change are not being made to the actual file. It worked yesterday when I changes the file name in iTunes the file name was also changed. Can someone please give me some advice.

Now it's taking hours for emails.
Not good.

Open vi file with specific Labview version using batch file (Windows)

I want to open certain vi with using Windows batch file and to use specific version of Labview development system. I tried
"C:\Program Files (x86)\National Instruments\LabVIEW 2012\LabVIEW.exe" "path_to_vi"
"C:\Program Files\National Instruments\LabVIEW 2012\LabVIEW.exe" "path_to_vi"
to use 32-bit and 64-bit development systems respectively. However Labview opens file with version which was last used before. Are there any ways to force it use specified version?

No, it's a VI I wrote so that when I open any VI from Windows Explorer it will open it in correct version of LabVIEW according to it's source version (rather than the latest/last version of LabVIEW I opened). All it does to launch the right version of LabVIEW is to call System Exec with the path to the correct version of the LabVIEW.exe and the path to the VI - which is essentially the same as what your batch file is doing.

J2E License Key File With Changed System Number

Hello,
During the last weeks, there had been some trouble according to the sneak preview licensing web site to get a new license key for special SAP systems like J2E, NSP etc.
In the meantime, I used especially for my J2E instance via visual admin the button "install subsequent temp license" with success.
Returning anew to the web site today, I saw that now we are able again to renew the license key for our trial systems and ordered successfully license keys for J2E and NSP instance.
Because both systems have got new system numbers, I deleted the expired license key for NSP via saplicense -delete. Then I installed regularly the given new license key with success.
After starting the J2E instance, I tried to delete the existing active license (see above) via installed licenses getting a message which let me stop my try to delete the license because I feared for to get trouble with the system afterwards.
The exact text of the warning trying to delete the existing active license sounds:
DELETE J2EE-Engine_ADA License:
You are about to delete the license for the J2EE-Engine. This may lead to a shutdown of the running system. You will not be able to start the J2EE-Engine again without a valid license. Do you really want to proceed?
Trying to install the given license from file (via General), I got the informational message:
This system's system number is "xyz", but there is a license key for the system number "abc" in file path\J2E.txt. License key file path\J2E.txt doesn't contain any valid SAP license keys.
License key(s) not completely installed.
That was to be expected...
So my questions are:
1) What is to do when I want to implement the new given license key file which has another system number as the existing active one.
2) How often can I use the possibility to prolong my active license via button "Install subsequent temp. license" in future without falling in trouble?
Thank you for your answers.
Regards
Christian

Before deleting the J2EE engine license, check the "Installed Licenses" tab and verify that there is another J2EE-engine license with Validity "Valid" and within a satisfactory date range. Only under this situation will I feel comfortable with removing the additional/expired licenses.
Your original message is a bit confusing ... let me see if I got it correctly. You have been running your J2EE instance with temp licenses, because there was some issues w/ preview licensing on SAP's web site. Now that you have finally received your preview license, you wish to install it.
But since then, your system number has changed. Do you mean system ID? Since your example used a 3 character ('xyz' vs 'abc'). I think the SID is what you mean. Because changing system number will not require a new license, but changing the SID will.
So now you have the following.
1. J2EE running on temp license with SID 'xyz'
2. A new preview license for SID 'abc'
What you need to do is:
1. Request from SAP preview license for the SID that matches your system 'xyz'. OR, change the SID of your system from 'xyz' to 'abc', which is not recommended ...especially w/ AS-JAVA.
2. Install the new preview licenses.
3. Verify preview licenses are valid.
4. I don't believe you have to remove the temp licenses, it's overwritten when you install the permanent preview licenses.

When I import TIF and JPG files with same metadata, only the TIF files are imported. How can I change that?

I have imported and renamed TIF and JPG files with the same metadata re recording date and time. Only the TIF files are imported, the JPG files remain unimproved. Thus I have in the Finder e. g. 13 image files in the same folder in which Lightroom only finds 10 files. Any ideas for resolution welcome!
Thanks

Turn off the option Preferences > General > Treat JPEG Files Next To Raw Files As Separate Photos. Then do an import again. It appears that, in this instance, LR considers a TIFF to be a "raw" file.

File size changes when extract page saved

I receive PDF files with multiple pages that I have to separate. I use Adobe Acrobat 7. I open the large file, extract a page and delete it from the larger file, then save the single page with a different name. I work my way through the large file until all pages are separated. I have been doing this successfully for a long time. Today, I received a 870kb file with 24 pages. Usually the individual pages are around 50kb. Today, each extracted file was around 300kb. This made each of the 24 pages well over 10mb when the origial single file was only 870! This just started happening suddenly. I have made no changes to settings from the last time I extracted pages this way. Can anyone help? This is a huge mystery and needless to say, a huge handicap! Thanks!

Thanks much for your reply. It said that "images" was 55.61% and "X object forms" was 41.10%. The rest were less than 2% each. Other PDFs I work with are created by a designer the same way as the ones I had problems with. For some reason, my Adobe is treating some of them differently when I extract pages. A single file that was 870kb and 24 pages wound up being about 10mb-worth of 24 individual pages. Any ideas? Thanks again!

Importing files with same name but different extensions

Hope I will be clear enough.
Lets say that instead of sending a file from Lightroom to an external editor, I open it directly in Photoshop.
When I'm done, I save the edited photo using the same name but in a different file format : IMG_1333.cr2 > IMG_1333.psd or IMG_1333.tif, and selecting the same folder location.
Then, I come back into Lightroom and synchronise the folder.
Why is the knew version of the picture not showing up beside the original file, despite the different extension ?
I notice that the different extensions ( .psd or .tif ) are recorded in the sidecar files field in the Metadata panel.
Of course, everything works fine if the file name is modified ( or just by selecting the "copy" option in Photoshop's "save as" dialog box ). Lightroom synchronise dialog shows the new photo to import.
So, why is Lightroom not making a difference between files with the same name but different format extensions ?
Thanks for any hint :-)
Gilles.

Gilles-
I think your problem is likely that you have the option to stack the copy with the original turned on. First, right-click on one of these photos and go to the stacking menu. If Unstack is not grayed out then you have a stack -- select Unstack to reveal all copies.
To change the automatic stacking of edited copies from Photoshop, when you next choose to edit a file, in the bottom left corner of the dialog is the check box for unstacking. Clear it, and that choice should "stick" until you change it again.
Hope this helps!

Reading a file and changing one part of the file

I am trying to read a file and then I want to change the first value on each line. The file I am reading is a .HEADER file. Which is just read in notepad I am just opening this like a txt file. I get no say at all how this file is created originally
I want to change the value on the first line the a new title plus the ext .dat. The file is below. This stays the same format just with different values.
ECG000 1 171 26112 9:14:56 23/04/2002
ECG000 8 43(0) 8 127 79 -24066 0 AED trace
I want to change the ECG000 to a new value eg Pat1.dat on the first line and Pat1 on the second line. When I read this file in and output to the dos window I get ECG000 0 0 0 and that is it. Any ideas why this is happening and how I can replace the values in the file??
     private void FileExt() throws IOException
          System.out.println("In function");
          BufferedReader br = new BufferedReader(new FileReader("c:\\Projects\\FirstSupport\\ECG000.HEADER"));
          String s;
          Vector data = new Vector();
          ECGFile = new FileWriter("c:\\Projects\\FirstSupport\\ECG.txt",true);
          System.out.println("Reading the file");
          while ((s = br.readLine()) != null)
          data.add(s);
          System.out.println(s);
          System.out.println("Finished");
          String label = s.substring(0, s.indexOf(" "));
          System.out.println(label);
          String newLabel = (label+".dat");
          System.out.println(newLabel);
     }

I think this is what you're looking for:     private void FileExt() {
          java.util.List data=new ArrayList();
          String s;
          try {
               BufferedReader br=new BufferedReader(new InputStreamReader(
                    new FileInputStream(new File("ECG000.HEADER"))));
               while ((s = br.readLine()) != null) {
                    data.add(s);
                    System.out.println(s);
               br.close();
          catch (FileNotFoundException fnfe) {
               System.out.println("Input file not found");
               return;
          catch (IOException ioe) {
               ioe.printStackTrace();
               return;
          ListIterator li=data.listIterator();

                    new File("ECG.txt")));
               while(li.hasNext()) {
                    s=(String)li.next();
                    if (s.substring(0, 6).equals("ECG000")) {
                         s="Pat1.dat"+s.substring(6, s.length());
                    ECGFile.println(s);
               ECGFile.close();
          catch (FileNotFoundException fnfe1) {}
