CS5 plug-ins with CS4

Are CS5 64-bit plug-ins going to be fat binary so they can run in 32-bit CS4?
Is there any reason to upgrade CS5 plug-ins if a user is sticking with CS4?

No.
Is there any reason to upgrade CS5 plug-ins if a user is sticking with CS4?
More memory and all that, obviously. Might neatly allow you to render thiungs you couldn't before....

Build Plug-Ins with CS4 SDK under OS X 10.5 SDK with Xcode 3.1.2?

I have existing Photoshop Universal Binary Plug-ins built under OS X 10.4 and the OS X 10.4 SDK, with Xcode 2.1.x & Photoshop CS3 SDK. They are mature and stable.
I am attempting to build these Plug-Ins with the new CS4 SDK under OS X 10.5.6 & 10.5 SDK with Xcode 3.1.2.
They do not build as there is a conflict in PITypes.h with the attempted redefinition of uint32, already defined in the Apple header cssmconfig.h, amongst other problems.
Has anyone built with a similar configuration?
Thank you!

I've had good luck with Snow Leopard 10.6.1, XCode 3.2 and the Photoshop CS4 SDK by changing the build settings like this:
1. Open the Target Info window: Project->Edit Active Target
2. Change Architectures from native to 32-bit Universal (because my native is 64 bit)
3. Make sure Base SDK is 10.4 (you must have that installed of course). If you select 10.5 for some of the Photoshop examples, you get complaints of depreciated APIs.
4. Change C/C++ compiler version to GCC 4.0
In the case of using these steps, there is no need to edit any headers, comment anything out, etc.
Hope that helps!

Can CS5 plug-ins, presets, panels be moved to CS6?

I upgraded from Photoshop CS5 to CS6, but some of CS5 Plug-ins, Panels and Presets remain that I'd like to use. Can I move them to CS6?

Hello!
If you saved the presets in the default location, you can move them using the migration script.
You will find all the info in this FAQ: http://forums.adobe.com/message/4287533#4287533
For the plug-ins, the question is more tricky: not knowing if you were using mac or pc, if they were of the 32 or 64 bits kind...
Here is a FAQ on moving plug-ins in CS6: http://forums.adobe.com/thread/965931?tstart=0
In general, simple, free plug-ins should be installed in a folder you create, either somewhere under the default plug-ins folder, or anywere in your hard drive, and then you point to it in preferences>plug-ins
More complicated plug-ins, and most commercial plug-ins should be reinstalled for your new version of Photoshop. It is a good idea to check for updated versions.
If you run into issues with plug-ins, do check this page: http://helpx.adobe.com/creative-suite/kb/troubleshoot-plug-ins-photoshop-cs4.html#main_Pho toshop_CS5_Optional_Plugins
For the panels, did you get their updated version for CS6? and did you install the new adobe exchange panel. https://www.adobeexchange.com/ to browse, discover, install and rate many new ones?

I copied my PS CS5 Plug Ins folder into my CS6 one & it started having problems opening & errors...

I copied my PS CS5 Plug Ins folder into my CS6 one & it started having problems opening & errors... would someone be able to tell me what the basic/original ones should be in PS CS^6 Plug In folder please?

That would be any other plug-ins you've installed after Photoshop. Out of the box that folder is completely empty with Photoshop CS6.
To be completely accurate, what you did wrong was that you copied plug-ins that were supplied by Adobe with the earlier version of Photoshop. Those plug-ins logically conflict with the current ones Adobe supplies with Photoshop, which are now provided in another place.
They've changed the folder structure, so no longer are any plug-ins supplied by Adobe put in that folder. Hopefully for a future version update you can copy those you have in Photoshop CS6 without getting yourself into the same trouble.

Nik PLug-ins with Aperture

Greetings, This is for anyone using Nik Software plug-ins with Aperture. Is there a way to back out of adjustments once you've saved your work in the Nik editor? When using with Photoshop, the Nik adjustment will create a "layer". Deselecting the layer will allow you to essentially remove the adjustment. I don't see any way of doing that in Aperture. Am I missing it, or are you basically down the road with the adjustment once you make it?
Thanks.

Once you save in NIK, the adjustments are "baked in." There's no way to go back and remove them. What NIK does is save the TIFF file that Aperture creates and hands over to it, with the NIK adjustments. This won't affect the original RAW file.
You could always go back and send that same TIFF file to NIK an indefinite number of times. It wouldn't really be "non-destructive" but you can re-do or tweak any adjustments you want to tweak.

Error Messages/Building Plug-ins with Eclipse SDK or VCExpress 2005

Hi,
I am an newbie in building InDesign-Plugins. I have installed the Adobe InDesign Plug-in Editor on my Windows XP PC (InDesign CS3 SDK, Eclipse, JRE 1.5, Visual Studio 2005 (VCExpress Edition for C++)).
I tried to build one of the example Plug-ins with Eclipse. After startting the build process of the "transparencyeffectui"-example or the "DollyXs"-example the following message appears:
Buildfile: F:\SDK\workspace\DollyTest\build.xml
win:
[echo] Now compiling FR file F:\adobe_indesign_cs3_products_sdk_503win\source\sdksamples\dollytest\Dolly.fr for win
[delete] Deleting: F:\SDK\workspace\DollyTest\ODFRC.res
[echo] FR Compilation Complete: Attempting to build C++ files...
BUILD FAILED
F:\SDK\workspace\DollyTest\build.xml:66: Execute failed: java.io.IOException: Cannot run program "D:\Programme\Microsoft Visual Studio 5\Common7\IDE\devenv.com": CreateProcess error=2, Das System kann die angegebene Datei nicht finden
Total time: 485 milliseconds
The compiler did't start because the file "devenv.com" is missing in the "Microsoft Visual Studio 2005/Common7/IDE"-directory.
The free "Visual Studio Express Edition" is delivered withot this file.
Where can i get this file? Or is it possible to change the exec line in the built-xml-file to get the Compiler started?
So I started the VCExpress-Programm an opened the transparencyeffetui-Project-File to start the build process. But again i got an error message:
1>------ Erstellen gestartet: Projekt: TransparencyEffectUI, Konfiguration: Debug Win32 ------
1>Performing Custom Build Step

1>TransparencyEffectUI - 1 error(s), 0 warning(s)
========== Erstellen: 0 erfolgreich, Fehler bei 1, 0 aktuell, 0 übersprungen ==========
There is no "windows.h"-file in the SDK directory. I tried to include all available SDK-"inculde"-directories to the VC++ directories in the option menue in VCExpress but i got the same error message.
Any ideas how to get the plug-in build with Eclipse or Visual Studio Express 2005 (C++)?

OK, so first some background:
1) The basic process goes like this:
a) one release doc (edited by the developer, presumably) and the
template docs are copied to the build area
b) Each doc is unzipped (ODT's are just ZIP files) into a subdir
c) The doc contents are copied around; this is to allow Ant to
replace its special @VAR@ variables in the document content
d) The docs are zipped back up into ODTs
e) The ODTs are converted into PDFs using OOo's macro functionality
Here are the troubleshooting steps I would apply:
1) Make sure the external.odt file exists - check the build area
(//content/build/<pluginname>/tmp/) and can be opened using normal
OpenOffice
2) Check that the release.odt file exists (same location) and can be
opened using normal OpenOffice
3) See if you can manually convert the external.odt file into a PDF -
the command we use is simply:
soffice -invisible
macro:///Standard.Collectors.External2PDF(${pkgdir}/tmp/external.odt)
(replace ${pkgdir} with the build directory path).
If all that works, then the Ant build process should work.
Also - what does that OpenOffice error popup say?

Your Creative Cloud account allows you to install software on two computers, regardless of operating system. Just log in to Creative Cloud from your second computer and install the app. See http://www.adobe.com/products/creativecloud/faq.html.
If you opt to do so, your files will be synched between the machines and Creative Cloud itself.

Need help using Waves 64bit, 3rd party plug-ins with Premiere CS5

I'm trying to install and use a bundle of 64bit 3rd party audio plug-ins from Waves in Premiere.
I am on a Mac running OS 10.9.3.
I can't figure out how to get Premiere CS5 to recognize my 3rd party Waves 9.3 bundle.
The plug-ins are listed and fly by one by one on the loading splash screen while Premiere launches. I can't find them anywhere in Premiere once it launches. Aparently both the VST and AU units work. But how? Where/how do I load the plug ins so I can access them in the audio effects folder?
thanks in advance!
Alex

i think the audio plugin manager was something new added, but i dont remember when. as im looking thru older threads at cs5, they make it sound as if premiere will just load and use what it can. when an effect doesn't show up, its usually cause premiere determined it couldn't use it. if you have the 64-bit version of premiere and 64-bit audio plugins, they should work, unless premiere has some issue with them. i think waves uses vst3 and AU (audio units)? while vst2 should work in cs5, im not sure if vst3 or au are supported until cs7. so im at a loss, unless someone else knows better. if you have access to audition, you can try to load them in there to use.

Plug-ins from CS4 to CS5?

Best way to have the plug-ins transferred to CS5 from CS4?

You can actually create a second copy of the application icon to run in 32-bit mode. Just right-click on the application icon, select Copy, then right-click inside the CS5 folder and select Paste. Rename it to "Photoshop CS5 32" or whatever you like, and then hit Cmd-i and check the "Open in 32-bit mode" box. The new application will complain that it's been moved when you launch it - just click "Do Not Update" and it will open in 32-bit mode (you can see the x32 in the splash screen), and all of your old plugins will be available if you copied them over.
I wanted to do this so that, when I don't need 3rd-party plugins (I don't use that many), I can launch in 64-bit mode without having to constantly switch back and forth. It's particularly handy for launching from Lightroom - if I want to do a lens correction that's not in LR yet (and not in PS CS5 until the Camera Raw 6.1 update hits, but that's another story) I can do an "Edit in" that doesn't load plugins and works in 64-bit mode, but when I want to use Viveza, Noiseware, or the Topaz plugins, I can set up a separate "Edit in" pref to launch the 32-bit version.

Lost my 3rd party plug-ins with upgrade to CS4

The 3rd party (Boris) files are still in the program files, but they are no longer in my effects panel. How can I get them back? Do I have to reload original software and complete all the updates again? Thanks

Good Morning Jim,
For future reference, I am attaching the response from Boris tech
support that solved the problem. Thanks again for your help.
There are two things you can do - you can reinstall the RED plugs,
this time
into the CS4 directory, or you can move the plugs from the CS3
directory to
the corresponding CS4 directory. The second would be quicker, but
requires
CS3 to still be installed. If it is, you just need to move the files
called
"FL7-BorisRed4P3.prm", "FX6-BorisRed4P3.prm" and "IM-BorisRed4.prm"
from
this location -
C:\Program Files\Adobe\Common\Plug-ins\CS3\MediaCore
To this location -
C:\Program Files\Adobe\Common\Plug-ins\CS4\MediaCore
If you do not find the RED plugs in the CS3 MediaCore folder, try
looking
here instead -
C:\Program Files\Adobe\Adobe Premiere Pro CS3\Plug-ins\en_US

CS5 Plug-ins won't download

Trying to fix the lack of a Twain connection to scanner, I have tried for 4 days to download the Plug-ins fix. The little clock just keeps rotating and nothing happens. Help!

I am using Windows7 64-bit, Photoshop CS5, trying to establish a Twain connection with Epson 4490 PHOTO scanner (twain was available with CS4). I have a new loaded DELL Studio computer. When I asked for help from Adobe, I was directed to the Plug-ins and sent to a "Download" . For a few days I have done this and when I click on Download, the clock starts but nothing else.
I think all I need is a way to download that file(s). This version of Photoshop also wont recognize the colour profile i use with my DELL monitor, evebn though CS4 had no problems with it. Oh well ....
Any suggestions will be gratefully received. Thanks for your response.

Where to put optional plug-ins of CS4 in Windows 7?

At last I succeeded to add the optional plug-ins (contactsheet, picture package) into CS-4 on my laptop
with Windows XP. On my PC with Windows 7 I've tried several maps, but could not find the right one to bring back the contactsheet and picture package to Bridge and CS4.
Could someone shed light on this?
Casperfoto

Maps are not the same, I've also tried on a Windows Vista 64-bits system. There are 5 locations where Photoshop maps could be found in Vista:
1- C\Program Files\Adobe\Adobe Photoshop CS4 (64bit)    (empty)
2- C\Program Files\Common Files\Adobe\Plug-Ins\CS4\Automate    (contains Web Contact Sheet II, Photomerge UI, Contact Sheet II)
3-C\Program Files (x86)\Adobe\Adobe Photoshop CS4\Plug-Ins\Automate   (contains Web Contact Sheet II, Photomerge UI, Contact Sheet II, WIA
     Support, HDR Merge, CropPhotosAuto)
4- C\Program Files (x86)\Adobe\Adobe Bridge CS4\Plug-Ins\           (contains ContactSheet II, Web Contact Sheet II, Photomerge UI)
5- C\Program Files (x86)\Common Files\Adobe\Adobe Photoshop CS4\32bit Photoshop dlls
From Photoshop>Automate> there is no mentioning of contactsheet
From Bridge>Tools>Photoshop>contactsheet Photoshop opens but shows: "The command "unknown" is not currently available"

How to open Indd file when it shows: missing plug ins in CS4 - Help.

How can I open this Indd file in my CS4 version? It is stating that I am misisng plug ins then it won't open the file. I'm guessing its probably a CS5 version file... Not sure. How do you tell? Anyway, I can I open this thing?
Worst case - How do I upgrade to CS5? Is possible? I can't find anything to upgrade to from CS4. They make it so hard to find.
Thanks for any insight or help!!
Brian

You can identify the version using the script here: Adobe Forums: [Ann] Identify Your InDesign File
If it is from a later version that CS4, it will need to be exported to .idml for something ath can be opened in CS4, but it likely will not look the same.
As far as I know there are no upgrade from CS4 to CS5 or CS5.5 packages avialble through normal resellers, and I'm not certain that CS4 is even eligible for upgrade discount princing for CS6 any longer.

Adobe Design Premium CS5 Plug-Ins

My company bought Adobe Design Premium CS5 for me, but when I try to use the software I get an error that says the program can't be opened because I need to upgrade the plug-ins to the latest versions or upgrade to the latest version of Adobe Indesign. How do I go about doing this? Thanks in advance.

Reinstall the program with sufficient user privileges/ file permissions. It is not installed correctly.
