CS5 - Image set at one size shrinks when dragged into another image?

I have Photoshop CS5 for Windows (just purchased this week). I am working on a school project in which I am editing an image and then dragging it into a calendar.
While working with the original image, I size it to 4.627"w X 4"h. Then when I go to drag it into the calendar layer, which is the same size, it shrinks drastically.
Why is this and how do I stop it?
For one image I was able to move it and it did not change size. But with all the others, I am having this shrinking problem.
Any help is greatly appreciated.
Thank you!
Britt

The change in size is due to different resolutions.
You can set resolution in the Image > Image size dialog.

Photoshop CS4-Outer glow changes specs (spread, size etc) when dragged into another ps file of similar size

Hello. I'm trying to add an outer glow to multiple photoshop images that have (at least one) of the same file dimensions as the original photoshop file. I'm doing this by dragging/dropping the original file's outer glow into the new files. But the size/spread/etc. of the outer glow changes once in the new file. Trying to automate this process and have to redesign the drop shadow for every batch of images I get. Anyone have any advice on why this is occurring? Or any advice on how to automate if this method does not work? I'm trying to keep the look of the outer glow consistent with every new batch. Thanks for looking! Yea, I know, still working in CS4 unfortunately.

Try resetting the printer subsystem.

Hello! I have an iMac that I lose the audio output for certain profiles. The audio output will work on one profile, but when switching to another profile, I lose the audio output. I've reset the NVRAM/PRAM and that hasn't solved the problem. Help!

Hello!
I have an iMac (running iOS 10.6.8, not upgraded to Lion) that I'm having audio issues with. I have 5 profiles on this machine. The audio output will work fine out of one profile, then when switched to another, the profile will not have any audio output at all. Rebooting the machine will occasionally solve the problem. Administrator permissions are not the issue since this has also manifested itself on the administrator profile. I've also reset the NVRAM/PRAM and that hasn't helped. All my software is up to date and I recently upgraded the RAM to 2x2GB sticks. This problem was existing prior to the RAM upgrade.
Any suggestions? Thanks in advance!

Hi Tony,
Long shot, but...
Open Audio Midi Setup in Applications>Utilities, see the input & output options & KHz setting there, some things will change it for their own use, then not set it back.

Clips automatically lengthened when dragged into timeline

Hello,
I'm new to FCP X, just as I am with video editing so please forgive my noviceness!
When I drag clips from the Event Library into the Timeline(?) (The bit at the bottom, where you arrange the clips) they are automatically made longer. For example, one clip has a length of 54 seconds in the event library, but when dragged into the timeline, it has been stretched to 56 seconds. I'm trying to match a band's studio recording footage to the finished audio and it is impossible when the clips are slowed down (and subsequently lower in pitch).
Is there a setting I need to know about to prevent this? How can I fix this problem?
Many thanks

If you mark the 'In' and 'Out' points and then press the 'E' key, the clip should be added to the Timeline exactly as marked in the Event Library.
Press 'Q' to add it above the Timeline as a Connected Clip at the Skimmer or the Playhead position.
Press 'W' to insert it into the Timeline at the Skimmer or the Playhead position (all the other clips will be pushed along the timeline to make room for it).
Press 'D' to overwrite it to the Timeline at the Skimmer or the Playhead position.
If you try some of these options and the clip duration changes, I suggest you trash your preferences.
Unexplained faults like this can often be fixed by clearing out FCP X's preferences (for some reason, they get knotted up from time to time).
Download Digital Rebellion's Preference Manager (free, simple to use, and perfectly safe, both to download and use).
http://www.digitalrebellion.com/prefman/
With Preference Manager, you can backup the Prefs when FCP X (or any of the Apple Professional Applications) are working normally. Then when either of the applications are acting strangely, Trash the Preferences, then Restore from your backups (just a mouse-click).
If you trash the prefs and don't restore them, you will need to manually restore all your FCP X settings again, so it's a great idea to backup Preferences from time to time when FCP X is working well, then your backups are up to date.
Doesn't fix every problem, but it fixes a lot.

I am trying to drag and drop one page of a .pdf into another .pdf in Acrobat Reader. I used to be able to drag and drop from one .pdf to another.

I am trying to drag and drop one page of a .pdf into another .pdf in Acrobat Reader. I used to be able to drag and drop from one .pdf to another.

If you could drag and drop pages before, it wasn't in Reader. You no doubt had Adobe Acrobat (Pro or Standard) which shouldn't be confused with Adobe Acrobat Reader. They recently added Acrobat to the name of Adobe Reader so the confusion about which product you had and/or have is understandable.

Sign out of one itunes account and sign into another seperate account on same macbook. Cannot access itunes library for 2nd account

Sign out of one itunes account and sign into another seperate itunes account on same macbook. Cannot access itunes library for 2nd account. How do I do this?

iTunes account is not the same as iTunes library.
iTunes account is what you use to purchase from iTunes.
iTunes library is what is on your computer.
You can have items from multiple iTunes accounts in one iTunes library.

Textbox shows xml text in working file but now when loaded into another SWF

Hi all,
I have downloaded an xml gallery (as2) as we needed one for an old as2 file. Now I mostly use as3 but thought as I only needed to tweak it there would be no probs. Of course, it rarely works out that way. The problem is, text loaded from the xml file is displayed with its corresponding image. This works fine in the file. When I load the SWF into another SWF however, it all works EXCEPT the text doesn't show at all?? Whoever made the gallery used 'device fonts' in the textbox, I don't know if this has anything to do with it. I tried changing the textbox to dynamic and embedding characters but still nothing.
This seems the key line -
_root.descmc.desc.htmlText = XMLdaten[number];
I have also tried
_root.descmc.desc.htmlText = XMLdaten[number].firstChild;
This traces out the correct xml data when tested so it is finding it okay.
Any help would be much appreciated.
Thanks

The problem might be in the use of the "_root" You probably need to set _lockroot = true; in the loaded swf, otherwise the _root is that of the loading swf, not the loaded one.

Resize after dragging into another image

This is my first post here. I have been a Photoshop user for years, but just upgraded to a new computer and CS5 Windows. While using CS2 I often would drag an image into another image and then resize it so that it looked the way I wanted in the new image. Now, when I drag an image into another, I can't resize it. What do I need to turn on or off. Files are the same format and bit depth.
Thanks
Paul

Are you saying the way you were set up before, you immediately saw the resizing handles, and you could drag them to resize?
I know there's an option for that, but finding it... Always a challenge...
Ah, found it. Do this:
1. Activate the Move tool (4 way arrow cursor) in the Tools panel.
2. Check the [ ] Show Transform Controls box at the top of the main Photoshop window.

Preview Icons vanishing when dragged into new folder.

When dragging an image file (with a preview icon showing the small representation of that image) is dragged from it's original folder to a new one, the preview disappears and is replaced with a generic "EPS" or "Jpeg" grey icon. Futher, if I get information about the file, the preview picture of the image also shows just a generic file type icon, even though I can see clearly the preview icon. This is so frustrating, as I must then batch process images in photoshop to have a new preview image show up.
To make things even more annoying, the process is inconsistent. If I drag the a eps file from the original folder with the image preview into a new folder, the preview may be missing. If I drag and drag, creating multiple copies of the file in a new folder "hnuewf.eps 1, .2, .3 etc...) almost always one of these attempts will copy correctly, with the preview intact. What the heck is going on!

Partilly solved by rebuilding permissions....

Proxy Icon in TextEdit titlebar created HUGE file when dragged into Finder

Hi everyone, Hope you can solve this mystery...
I just noticed that the Titlebar of my TextEdit window has a small icon next to the filename (aka "Proxy icon"). I realized that it's draggable, so I decided to do little test to test it's functionality.
- I created a small file with one word in it "test" and saved it as "test file.rtf" in a subfolder under Documents; and
- With the file still open, I dragged the Proxy Icon into a Finder window to the Desktop folder.
When I looked for the file in Finder, I was shocked to see that:
- It created a HUGE file...the original file is only 306 bytes in size, but the one I created by dragging shows 2.3 MB !
- The dragged file also has the appearance of an "Alias" file b/c the Finder window show3s a document icon with a curved arrow next to the filename.
Questions:
1) Why would Maverick use an Alias symbol on a file that is clearly not an Alias based on it's size?
2) Why is the file so much larger than the original?
I searched online for answers but found none, so I thought I'd give this forum a try.
btw - in case you're wondering, I did not open the dragged file b/c I didn't want to take any chances.
Thanks in advance.

Can I take a selection from one clip and put it into another?

I'm pretty new to this so thanks. I want to assemble a clip that has parts of three different takes. Splitting the screen works for a couple of the takes..but i'm wondering if I can use the four point matting to isolate a character and put him into another clip...the backgrounds are the same and the set up when shot is the same...but there is no blue or green screen involved so I'm wondering if this is possible in FCP. Hopefully the question makes sense...thanks!

So you are trying to "cut out" your subject and paste him onto another take? Should be easy enough- just use the four or eight point matte to cut out a square around the subject, then layer that clip on top of the other take you want to superimpose him in. As long as the angle/lighting were the same, it should work. If you find you want a more complicated matte, try Tom's 50 Point Matter, which has a bezier curves option.

How to ensure I don't lose songs on iPhone (Match music) when logging into another account

Hi all,
I hope I get some answers here, I'm struggling with an issue I've been having.
I have my songs set up through iTunes match, which is fine.
However the issue I have had is when I sign OUT of my account and into another (to update an app or such) I've had issues where the songs that were previously on my phone get deleted.
While I sort of understand that, at the same time when I'm just signing out for a few minutes, to lose that and have to download multiple gigs of music AGAIN and AGAIN is beyond irritating. I know the easy answer Is to just not sign out, but I want to have that flexibility if I need to.
Is there anything I can do here? Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Nick

Oka, another question I have then, which is frustrating me beyond belief, is why, if is Tay logged into my match account, songs are oftentimes deleted from my phone?
I have a playlist of "new" music that has about 600 songs in it. That playlist will randomly dump hundreds of songs, leaving them to show available for download from match, but they are removed without me having deleted them.
Now, 2 things happen on my main PC where I set up match. The first is that randomly, with little fanfare, match will just shut itself off. No explanation, just stops.
The next is that I have multiple iTunes accounts and in order to update the apps in those accounts, I have to sign into another account, update, and then sign back in. Each time I have to turn match back on, which I do. It takes all of 2 minutes and according to a less than scientific test I just did, it doesn't seem to cause song deletion from my phone by doing this.
I'm getting very frustrated that a service I pay for, while being somewhat convenient from time to time, is causing nothing but problem upon problem. I can't be the only person juggling multiple iTunes accounts on each device, can I? =\

Link one solution manager word document into another solution manager HTML

Hi,
I have requirement in solution manager that there are two documents uploaded into solution manager.
1. One word document in one of the project folder
2. HTML page in another folder of same project
I have to set up a hyper link of word document in the HTML web page.
If anyone has gone through this type of requirement, please let me know the details of how did you set up the link between word and HTML document.
Appreciate the early response.
Thanks,
Siva

Go to the properties of the file you want to link your word document to. (attributes icon)
There you will find a button "Generate Document URL (F9)". Clicking this button will buffer the URL into clipboard.
Then you open your Word document in edit mode and paste the URL there.
