CS5 Optional Plugin Loading

I would like to make a contact sheet of images and noticed I need to download the optional plugins for CS5.
I did this, read through the instructions though I was following along but when I have placed the files into the areas specificed and then open photoshop the option for a contact sheet does appear under automate.
Can someone walk me through and tell me what to do to get this to work?
Thanks.

Do you have a 64 bit system?  I ask because you have to make sure the 64 bit optional components go under the 64 bit installation area, and the 32 bit components under the 32 bit installation area.
Photoshop 64 bit is based here:
C:\Program Files\Adobe\Adobe Photoshop CS5 (64 Bit)
Photoshop 32 bit is based here:
C:\Program Files (x86)\Adobe\Adobe Photoshop CS5
Also, make sure you stop and restart Photoshop after installing the optional components.

  • Photoshop CS5 Optional Plugins downloaded file issue

    I am trying to download the Photoshop CS5 Optional Plugins from the following Adobe website http://www.adobe.com/support/downloads/detail.jsp?ftpID=4688. 
    I'm using IE9 as my browser and opting to save the file to my desktop. 
    The downloaded file appears as follows on my desktop - PSCS5OptionalPlugins_Win_en_US.zip.av6ac0u  - whiich I'm unable to unzip and use.  I am able to download other plug ins from the Adobe site.  Is there an alternate page for downloading these files or some "trick" to downloading these particular plugins? 
    Thank you.

    I'm a huge fan of the mouse myself, Noel.  As a matter of fact that's what instantly drew me to the Lisa and the Mac initially, at a time when PCs were still at the command-line stage of MS-DOS and PC users were mocking and deriding menus and the mouse. 
    To this day I much prefer to do anything that can be done with the mouse and/or menus without having to clutter what's left of my withered brain with the learning of commands and key combos, and my considerably handicapped hands make me a lousy typist on account of arthritis and neuropathy anyway.
    But aliases ("shortcuts") on the desktop are not necessary to launch applications or open documents.  That's what The Dock is for on the Mac, which, as you can see in my screen shot above, I keep hidden below the bottom of the screen with all its icons until I bring my cursor down to hover over that area when I need it.
    And I have double the logos you do. 
    Hehehe…   I have plenty of those in reserve.    We don't want to clutter this thread with more images than necessary. 

  • CS5 Optional Plugins Problem??

    Hi,
    I work for a college. I have a lab of 20 identical machines. They are iMacs running Leopard. They have Adobe CS5 Standard installed. Last night one of my faculty said that photoshop was missing two plug-ins. Web Photo Gallery and ContactSheet. I look online and found a handy dandy CS5 Optional Plug-In patch that will install all of these plug-ins as well as about 15 more. This patch is officially made by Adobe and on their website. (http://www.adobe.com/support/downloads/detail.jsp?ftpID=4687) I go to install this patch and I get a message that you have to have photoshop 12.0 or greater to install this patch. I re-download the patch. Double check that photoshop is at least 12.0 and it is when I click on the about link on Photoshop. I run the Adobe updater and run the photoshop update that upgrades it to 12.0.1 (or 12.1, but I think it is 12.0.1) and re-tried the patch install. I get the same exact message about having to have 12.0 or greater. I even went to this website (http://generatex.com/cs5.html) with step by step instructions on how to install the plug-ins and no go. I called Adobe and they want to charge me for the call. I ended up finding a link (http://kb2.adobe.com/cps/828/cpsid_82824.html#main_Plug_ins_installed_in_CS5__optional_in_ previous_versions) that mentions that 64 bit photoshop cannot have Web Photo Gallery and ContactSheet installed on it. However, when you right click on the Photoshop app you can click the option to run in 32 bit mode. Making that change did not correct the issue when I re-tried the install. I think I am out of luck. Anyone run into this or have any alternate ideas?

    Hi Adam,
    Please open <Photoshop installation folder>/Configuration/XManConfig.xml, search following line:
    <Data key="ProductVersion">12.0</Data>
    make sure the value is 12.0, you can modify it to 12.0.1 in your case. Extension Manager determines the version of Photoshop according to this value. If you can not find this line, add it manually. Save this file and retry. I can not reproduce this issue unless I modify this value to 11.0 or less.

  • Waves plugins in Premiere CS5 (Mac) not loading.

    I have the Waves "Masters" plugins and would like to use them in Premiere CS5 for Mac. Problem is that they do not load.
    Here's what the "Plugin Loading.log" file says about it:
    Scanning /Library/Audio/Plug-Ins/VST and sub-directories
    Loading /Library/Audio/Plug-Ins/VST/WaveShell-VST 8.0.vst
    The registry tells us to cache so the plugin will be loaded from the cache.
    The plugin is marked as Ignore, so it will not be loaded.
    What does this means?

    I don't know anything about Waves "Masters" plugins,
    but if they're not 64bit versions they won't work.

  • Cannot scan using CS5, Optional TWAIN plugin does nothing

    I'm trying to figure out how to scan using CS5 (Master Collection, 32-bit for 32-bit Windows Vista). I found references to an optional plugin pack for Photosop, which supposedly has a TWAIN plugin that works for 32-bit Windows Vista. So, I downloaded it. But, it seems like such a hack pack. There nothing to launch (run) for an automatic install. There's just a duplicate set of bewildering instructions for "installing" each plugin.
    The instructions included in the plugin pack has a section that says "TWAIN (Mac only)" and only lists instructions for a Mac. Near the top of the document is the entire list of plugins. A footnote below the list indicates that the plugins intended only for the Mac are marked with an asterisk. The TWAIN plugin is in the list, but not marked. The online documentation confirms that the TWAIN plugin in this pack works for 32-bit Windows. But, it does not reveal how to install or use it.
    Before you ask, yes, I downloaded the right version. Thinking the two version might have been switched, I also downloaded the Mac version. But, I couldn't even open it.
    Anyway, I found multiple blogs instructing to add the Twain_32.8BA file to the folder "%ProgramFiles%\Adobe\Adobe Photoshop CS5\Plug-ins\Import-Export", launch Photoshop, then select File and Import. I'm not sure what was supposed to show up there, but nothing was added.
    I know the scanner works, the scanner driver works, and the TWAIN driver works, since I can still use them with the much cheaper Serif software.
    Any ideas?

    I finally resolved most of the issue. Long story short, the scanner wasn't connected. What an idiot! The long story appears below if you are interested.
    I still cannot scan from the scanner. But, I'm confident it's not a Photoshop or TWAIN plugin issue. The only remaining issue with an Adobe product is the very sketchy instructions (or lack thereof) and "install" procedures involved with Adobe's "hack-pack".
    Thanks to all who took time to respond.
    The Long Story
    After posting my question, I continued double-checking everything, including the Serif software, which now could not find the scanner.
    The problem originated when I borrowed the USB cable from the scanner (a Lexmark X6100 series all-in-one). When I returned the cable to an impossible to see set of connections on the rear, it fit perfectly in the phone line-out jack.
    Oblivious to the cable problem, I attempted to uninstall the Lexmark driver software. This caused a nightmare of registry changes, security issues, and reboots. The driver software had been tweaked to work with Windows Vista. But, nobody thought to update the uninstaller. In the midst of the computer problems, my telephone service goes out. Go figure.
    I eventually stumbled upon a resolve to the telephone issue by disconnecting the phone system from the Lexmark. At this point I begin to get a little suspicious of the Lexmark being a cause for both problems. I checked the phone cable to the Lexmark. But, it seems fine. I reconnect it on both ends. Still, it causes a telephone issue. At a loss for that problem and having a temporary resolve for now, I continue working on the driver issue.
    With the Lexmark software finally removed from my computer, I begin installing a slightly updated version, praying I don't have to ever uninstall it. But, it won't install, reporting the Lexmark has to be on and connected. Rechecking the USB connection, I can feel that the USB cable is a little loose. Then, it dawns on me that it could be plugged into the phone line-out. Feeling around for another jack, I find one, plug in the USB, get a much more appropriate fit, and voila!. The new device driver installs.
    I launch the Serif software. And, now it's able to find the Lexmark. I launch Photoshop, select File and Import, and there appears a new item, "Lexmark X6100 series ...". Now, if I could only get it to actually work.

  • Optional Plugins for CS5

    Has anyone successfully installed the optional plugins in CS5 running in 64bit under Snow Leopard 10.6.3?

    Hi,
    It's best to check directly with Epson, but I think Canon is one of the few so far that have posted 64 bit drivers for their scanners.
    See this post for a bit more info:
    http://forums.adobe.com/message/2888087#2888087
    You might get an answer from PDFerguson on how to tell if the driver is 32 bit or 64 bit compatible.

  • Photoshop CS5 freeze after load (Windows XP)

    I've been using Photoshop CS5 for about two months and have been having issues recently.  After the application loads, it will freeze when you attempt to work on a file.  For instance, I have a multi-layed PSD web layout that is only 2mbs in size.  I'll load it from either the desktop or from the recent files list.  I can usually start doing something (like start moving an layer or start editing text) but then the application freezes.  If I open a file and do nothing and let the program sit, it eventually closes up and rarely throws an error.  The Windows application event viewer gives me the following errors when it crashes:
    Hanging application Photoshop.exe, version 12.1.0.0, hang module hungapp, version 0.0.0.0, hang address 0x00000000.
    I also found this error, which I imagine will be much more helpful:
    Faulting application photoshop.exe, version 12.1.0.0, faulting module adobeswfl.dll, version 2.0.0.11360, fault address 0x002d346c.

    I've gone ahead and done that and I still get the same results.  I also moved things out of the Application Data folder one by one to test those files as well.  A couple of times I could actually use Photoshop, but when I'd quit, it would stop working when I re-opened it.  I checked the Windows Application Event viewer again and found this:
    Faulting application photoshop.exe, version 12.1.0.0, faulting module ole32.dll, version 5.1.2600.6010, fault address 0x0004b104.
    I'd like to clarify that I am by no means a Windows user, and that I am only running Photoshop on XP for work, so bear with me on that.
    Thanks

  • Plugins Loading Slower In Photoshop CC 15.2.1 - Mac

    Since updating to the latest version, two plugins I created for Photoshop CC are loading very slow. At times I need to click in the panel to make it load. Prior to the update the plugins loaded fine and the still load quickly in Photoshop CC ver 14.2.1.
    This slow loading is on a Mac. The plugins still load fine on Windows 7.
    Is anyone else experiencing this issue? Does anyone know what is causing the slow loading?
    Thanks in advance - Sam

    My advice:  Rather that wait hopefully, try some alternate configuration settings.
    Specifically, go into your Preferences - Performance - Advanced Settings panel, and try the different options there, making sure to close Photoshop and restart it after each change, then test.
    It's possible Photoshop asked the nVidia display driver what it can do, and it said it could do something very advanced, but in the driver implementation some part of that advanced operation is run in the CPU, not the GPU.  NVidia has been known to do this!
    Thus it may be that if you choose a lesser drawing mode or change something (e.g., 30 bit display) you might find that particular combination of settings makes things run faster.

  • CS4 About installing the `Optional Plugins' 64 or 32 bit

    Can anyone tell me from experience if when installing the `Optional Plugins' found in the `goodies' directory of install discs or from online sources by adobe, does it matter which  photoshop `plugins' directory you use, or do you need to drop them in both?
    (I'm particularly interested in the contact sheet II plugin)
    On 64 bit systems (Using CS4) you have one 64 bit version of PS and one 32 bit version.  Both have the dirctorires mentioned in the instructions found in:
    `Photoshop CS4 and Photoshop Extended CS4 Read Me for Optional Plug-Ins, Extensions and Presets' *.pdf instructions.
    But I don't see any mention of 64 or 32 bit in relation to placement of the `optional plugins'.

    Hey Harry, I think he knows (Chris wrote part of the program).
    I believe what Chris is saying is that:
    1.  Only 32 bit plug-ins work with 32 bit Photoshop, and only 64 bit plug-ins work with 64 bit Photoshop.
    2.  There are plug-ins in the package for each of the variants, 32 bit and 64 bit.
    3.  The 32 bit plug-in(s) need to go under the install area for the 32 bit Photoshop, which is rooted at (on a 64 bit system):
         C:\Program Files (x86)\Adobe\Adobe Photoshop CS5\Plug-ins
    4.  The 64 bit plug-in(s) need to go under the install area for the 64 bit Photoshop:
         C:\Program Files\Adobe\Adobe Photoshop CS5 (64 Bit)\Plug-ins
    If you look in the PSCS5OptionalPlugins_Win_en_US.zip file it's pretty obvious which of these are in what subfolder (look for Win32 and Win64 subfolder names).
    Note also that the ReadMeCS5_OptionalPlugin.pdf file in the base folder inside the zip file does give instructions.

  • Optional plugins not supported

    i d/l'd and installed the optional plugins for ps cs5, but they do not show in the filters list.
    i have been told by someone who has used ps for a number of years that ps cs5 does not support them.
    i d/l'd them from adobe, so why don't they work?

    it is possible i installed the wrong plugins, but i did
    get them from adobe. they are the same that were removed after cs3
    when cs4 came out. they are both available from adobe's download page
    as optional, one version for cs4 the other for cs5. i'll check to see if the correct
    version is installed as i have both 32 and 64 bit capabilities on my win 7 ultimate 64 bit os.
    i'll let you know the result as soon as i can. hopefully the version installed for my 64 bit is
    incorrect, not unsupported.
    i have just visited the d/l page here
    http://www.adobe.com/support/downloads/thankyou.jsp?ftpID=4688&fileID=4376
    but there is nothing to indicate any 32 or 64 bit version for the plugins. it only has a single d/l link
    as you can see on the page. i have already added some demo and other plugins without any problem
    but i am unable to find where or how to resolve this problem with them not being available for use
    in ps cs5 extended.
    i currently have literally hunderds of filters, freeware and paid, that are all ps compatible but am leary
    of installing into ps for use there. they are installed for use in other applications.

  • No option to Load Files into Layers into Photoshop

    In CS6 I don't have a menu option to load files into layers. Did they get rid if it?

    No, it still works and is also present in CC. I assume you have used menu Tools / Photoshop / Load in to layers for this?
    Is Photoshop present under menu Tools? if not check Bridge preferences Start Up scripts and see if a check mark is set in front of Photoshop
    Or reset Bridge preferences by holding down option key (Mac) or control key (Win) while restarting Bridge and choose reset prefs.

  • Optional plugins for Photoshop CS6 - installation advice?

    Where should I / how should I install the Lighting Styles folder and the 8bf, 8bi and 8ba files included in the optional plugins for Photoshop CS6? (Win 32)
    Thank you in advance for your help.
    Heather

    Hi Heather,
    If you  have the 64-bit version of either of these OSes, then:
    Windows 7 and Vista (32 bit): Program Files (x86)/Adobe/Adobe Photoshop CS6/Plug-ins folder
    If you have the 32-bit OS version, then: Program Files/Adobe/Adobe Photoshop CS6/Plug-ins folder
    The Lighting Styles folder just needs to be in the same directory as the LightingEffects plug-in.
    Secondarily, why are you wanting to use the legacy plug-in? Is it because you don't a video card that can enable OpenGL drawing?
    regards,
    steve
