CS4 to CS5 and back

Does anyone know if you can edit a Photoshop CS4 document in CS5, then edit it again in CS4?

Directed to J-Spencer: Just let me add that such features aren't things that people use every day much, so you'll almost never see such an incompatibility in actual use.

Image Lr3 to CS5 and back looks wrong

I just installed Lr3 (was using 2.7) and CS5 (was using CS3). From Lr I took an image to retouch in CS5 and when it came back to Lr it looked terrible - the exposure had changed at least a stop and I did not do that in PS. What happened? Do I have a setting wrong? I loved how I had Lr2 set up and I have lost it all. In Lr2 the edited image would automaticaalycome back with a T (for tweaked) added to the name and look like it did when it left PS.

I bought Lr3 a long time ago and did not install it (dumb but I had my reasons at the time). I was thinking maybe I should just get Lr4 now but I saw advice to wait because it was slow. I would have to pay for it at this point I'd bet. Do you think I shoulw just get Lr4 so I don't have to go through this grief again soon?
I have imported the image in Lr and have made my adjustments there as always and then taking it into Ps for retouching and when it returns it is fubared.

Porting from CS4 to CS5, save document failed.

I am porting programes from CS4 to CS5, and meet a problem.
In my program I need delete some page from a indesign document and then save it back.
I open the document use the code below
InterfacePtr<IK2ServiceRegistry>    serviceRegistry(Porting::GetPointerToSession(), UseDefaultIID());
        ASSERT(serviceRegistry);
        if (!serviceRegistry)
            break;
        InterfacePtr<IK2ServiceProvider> openManagerService(serviceRegistry->QueryDefaultServiceProvider(kOpenManagerService));
        ASSERT(openManagerService);
        if (!openManagerService)
            break;
        InterfacePtr<IOpenManager> openManager(openManagerService, IID_IOPENMANAGER); // no kDefaultIID
        ASSERT(openManager);
        if (!openManager)
            break;
        UniFile fileDocument = fTemplateCopyFile;
        UIDRef DocumentRef = openManager->OpenDocFromFile(&fileDocument,kFullUI);
and then delete some page
for( int i = 0; i < fnPageCountOfCopy; ++i )
            UID idPage = fvPageUID[i];
            if ( fPageIDList.DoesNotContain(idPage) )
                UIDRef refPageToDelete( fTemplateCopyUIDRef.GetDataBase(), idPage );
                InterfacePtr<ICommand> deleteCmd(CmdUtils::CreateCommand(kDeletePageCmdBoss ));
                if( deleteCmd )
                    UIDList tempList(refPageToDelete);
                    deleteCmd->SetItemList( tempList );
                    ErrorCode status = CmdHelper::ProcessCommand( deleteCmd );
then save it back
pOldHandler->SaveAs(fTemplateCopyUIDRef,
            &fTemplateCopyFile,
            K2::kSuppressUI,
            kFalse,
            kInDesignFileTypeInfoID);
but save failed. The code works on CS4, but does not work on CS5.
Does anybody know why? Any suggestion is appreciated.

I found that delete operation will affect save operation, but I don't know why and how to solve it.
Is it a threading problem?

Third Party Plug-Ins have disappeared on upgrade from CS4 to CS5

Hello Folks,
I have recently upgraded from PS CS4 to CS5 and now, on looking through the Plug-Ins available fromthe Menu - Help - About Plug-In --, I see that my 3rd Party Plug-Ins (NOT the Plug-Ins which had previously been installed automatically by CS4 and are now no longer installed by CS5 as a matter of course), such as Akvis / Bokeh / Imagenomic and many others, are no longer shown.
Has anyone else out there experienced the same problem due to this upgrade? If so, I would be grateful if someone could advise as to whether there is some solution readily available OR, is it a case of having to re-install the 3rd Party Plug-Ins one by one??
This did not happen when I upgraded from CS3 to CS4 - all my 3rd Party Plug-Ins made that transition quite successfully.
For information purposes, I am running Windows 7 Ultimate on a 32 bit system mode.
Thank You,
Geeborg.

Yes it did. You just don't remember having to deal with it.
Photoshop does not ever install in the same folder as a prior version. Thus CS5 will not see the plug-ins that have been installed in or under the Adobe Photoshop CS4\plug-ins folder.
Thus you will need to install your plug-ins again, pointing them at the CS5 area. Some (as mentioned above) may need to be upgraded.

CS4 to CS5 Photoshop

Hi,
I have a legit CS5 P/S upgrade, I installed it but during the install did not even ask for proof that I already had CS4 active, anyway it has installed but now I have both CS4 & CS5 and it did not carry across my other installed software/plugins.
Do I need to uninstall CS4?
Many Thanks
Russ

The installer automomatically detects the earlier version if it's installed on the system already. Worked for me when upgrading from CS4 to CS5, and then again last week with CS5 to CS6. I guess I'll only need to enter my earlier serial number(s) when I move to a new system and do a fresh install.
You don't need to uninstall CS4. Having both versions on the same system will cause you no issues.

CS5 and the slideshow template

I just upgraded from Flash CS4 to CS5 and have discovered that the slide show template is no longer supported.
Does anyone know if flash slideshows will be supported in upcoming versions of the Flash player or will they be discontinued?

Thanks for the ideas!
When I try to open a CS4 fla containing a slideshow with CS5 it gives an error message "Slides and Forms documents are not supported in this version of Flash. Please open in a previous version."
I called Adobe support and was told I would have to reauthor the slide show as a frame based app. After working for several years creating slide based flash presentations this is not good news.
I guess my fear now is that if they dropped support for slides and forms in CS5 will they drop support for them in newer versions of Flash player as well. Yikes! That would sink me for sure.

Photoshop cs4 and cs5 and after effects 7.0

Hello my name is mel
My question ! I'm working with photoshop cs4 and after effects 7.0 building a web page and this going to be my first page . I got the header in and the footer also,
the main body is going to be this avi file. after effect project that I want to run when the page opens. I want to slice up and send to DW for coding . my question is how do you slice this page up and transport it to DW.cs5 and do you have to code the avi in html and css to run when the page is open. Because as now when you run the avi in photoshop nothing elese on the page works , just the avi runs when you turn off the avi then every thing is back normal .to run the avi you have go to the video part of psd and click on the start button . any idea or any suggestion how to proceded would help
thanks

we were told in design school to use ps to design your site then transport to DW to code??
Maybe I misunderstood you.... You do the graphics in PS, that's of course what everyone does and then you code in DW, but by all means, you do not operate on the atrocious code Save for Web would spit out from PS. Trying to fix it is more trouble than starting with a blank page in DW and inserting the background and otehr images manually. And you definitely misunderstand "animation" vs. "video" After Effects is just a means to turn animation into video just as Flash is a means of creating dynamically rendered animation or interactive content. Both have their uses, but without knowing what kind of animation or video you actually need to produce, this is going nowhere. It may turn out that all you need is an animated GIF, after all... Furthermore your AE 7 is dated and does not output good H.264 or FLV directly compared to more recent versions, so this opens up yet anotehr can of worms when it comes to producing good quality web video at small file sizes... In any case, you still require a lot of reading. Too complex a topic for which nobody can provide a tippy-toe tutorial and without understanding even some basic concepts, the most beautifully designed PS grafik will end up being nothing more than a useless lump of pixels on a web server...

Warning CS4 CS5 and CS6 Photoshop Action Users

Adobe introduce the Adjustment Panel in CS4 and included two option that you should NEVER CHANGE from their default setting. For if either or both are change from their default settings some actions that add adjustment layers will fail to work properly. They may or may not produce error pop-ups.
I have been trying to get this fixed for a couple of years now. The other day I received an e-mail from an Adobe programmer informing me that he had been assigned the task to fix the problems I've been having. He included information he was considering. It was clear he did not fully understand the problems and that keeping one of the options would make it impossible to maintain compatibility with previous versions of Photoshop. I wrote two e-mails explaining the problems and a third detailing what the problems I saw with what was proposing. He wrote back the all he wanted to do was to work on part of the problem not the whole problem. I wrote a fourth note but Adobe is back is stealth mode.
The two options in the Adjustment Panel fly-out menu are:
"Add Layer Mask by Default" checked by default. This is how Photoshop always worked prior to CS4 there was never an option not to add one so nothing was ever recorded whether or not a layer mask was to be added they always were. Changing this will make Photoshop not backward compatible.
"Clip to Layer" not checked by default. There has always been an option to clip adjustment layers to the previous layer. So when the option is used the action recorder records the option "With Clipping Mask" in the make adjustment layer step. When the Adjustment Layer is not clipped the option "with Clipping Mask" is not recorded. In the past these recordings played back correctly and still do if the Adjustment Panel fly-out option "Clip to Layer" is not checked. However if Adjustment Panel option is checked even though is was nit when the action was recorded for the option "With Clipping Mas" is not recorded Photoshop clips the layer because of the Adjustment Panel current Option setting. That could be fixed. The current option setting has no meaning in this context in fact the Adjustment panel may not have even been used to recode the Make Adjustment Layer step.
Here is a link to a simple action recorded in CS6. It opens a new default size document add an Levels Adjustment Layer deletes the layer mask and then clips the adjustment layer to the previous layer. The Action will play correctly in all versions of Photoshop prior to cs4. It will fail in CS4, CS5 and CS6 if either or both of the Adjustments Panel fly-out options are changed from their default setting. http://www.mouseprints.net/old/dpr/CS6AdjLayer.atn

Generally, you would have got the option to remove the old versions. However, you can uninstall the old versions but you should do it from Windows Add/Remove modules in the Control Panel so that it doesn't remove the common files from your machine.
If you are not constrained by disk space then the best thing is to leave the old programs on the system until you are familiar with the new features of the upgraded program.
I have renmoved the old programs from my Windows 7 because I wasn't using them. These days I use "Corel Paintshop Pro X5" and "Corel Draw Graphics Suite X6".
Photoshop is for something I need to test for my colleagues who are not familiar with certain features in Corel so I tell them how to do it in PS CS6.
Hope this helps.

CS4 or CS5.5 are interface iphone and andriod apps ?

CS4 or CS5.5 are interface iphone and andriod apps ? How can i do when i make a new web site in DW with support and interface iphone and andriod apps . or we should learn HTML 5 or Wordpress for that ? Thanks !!

Thanks Jeff - ya,sorry, I should've specified. I'm running Win 7 64-bit and I have Production Premium CS4 on the system now. Ideally I would deactivate and uninstall it before I load CS5.5 Production Premium.
My only reasoning is to save on SSD space. Is there any reason to keep CS4 on the machine, other than possible problems with CS5.5?
Thanks again for your reply Jeff.

Using Photoshop CS4/CS5 and Lightroom 2/3 on Win 7 vs OSX

I do NOT want to re-ignite the no-win discussion of pc vs mac. Now that CS5 is announced, yet again as I preprare to upgrade from CS4, I ask if I should convert fromWin7 64-bit on a PC to MAC Pro running OSX. I currently run a WIN 7 64-bit PC with 8 GB Ram. I would consider buying a MAC PRO with 8 GB RAM. The machine(s) are used strictly for image processing, no general office work or general internet surfing except as relates to supporting my software, etc.
I don't want to discuss PC vs MaC but I would like to understand the limits, advantages/disadvantages of one platform vs the other as specifically relates to CS4/CS5 and/or Lightroom 2/3. In other words are there functions or processes that I can do on one platform and not the other, or do better on one compared to the other, not does one cost more than the other any comments or help?? Mike

As a casual user of CS products, I find no substantive differences between using them on a Mac vs. PC. I can cross post this question over to the Photoshop forum (originally posted to the Photoshop.com web site forum, which is not just about the desktop app).
It's probably going to become a Mac vs. PC discussion, since the question is inherently 'which is better', but hopefully people will remain objective and constructive!

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

If you give complete and detailed information about your setup and the issue at hand, such as your platform (Mac or Win), exact versions of your OS, of Photoshop ("CS5" won't do for instance; we would need CS5 vers 12.0.2 or whatever) and of Bridge, machine specs, such as total installed RAM, scratch file HDs, video card specs, what troubleshooting steps you have taken so far, what error message(s) you receive, if having issues opening raw files also the exact camera make and model that generated them, etc., someone may be able to help you.
