Damaged photos in Photoshop CC

I’ve been working with my scanned photos saved in .tif. After my adjustments in PS (with some adjustment layers) I ’ve saved them again in .tif. and checked them in Bridge, everything is ok. Next time when I want to open them some of the images are damaged. After several hours of work the phots are destroyed!
In Bridge they are barred and look very strange. In PS I get the message saying something like ”Impossible to read layer data. Do you want to read the flatten image?” Or I get the message saying something like: ”An error occurred when reading the meta data of the file. This document may be damaged. Do you want to contunue?”
It has also happened something mysterious when I’ve moved my raw data photos from my hard drive to my extern hard disc, some of them get very barred (not in the same way as the photos I mentioned above).
Why?

Have you tried purging the Camera RAW cache under Camera Raw Preferences?

If I edit a photo in Photoshop Elements, I can't seem to re-import it back into Lightroom. If I open the relevant folder on my Mac the image is present, but Lightroom just doesn't "see" it at all.

For some reason, my (Mac) Lightroom 5 won't recognise images in folders on my Mac that I've edited in either Photoshop Elements or Perfect Effects 8. If I've previously imported images from a specific folder, Lightroom will show these as greyed-out images (as normal) but will not show other images I've subsequently saved in that folder. Similarly, if I, say, select three images from Lightroom to use the Photomerge option in Elements, the subsequent saved image won't be recognised by Lightroom.
I've tried moving locations, saving in umpteen different formats etc., but the problem persists. No problem importing existing images from either SD card or old folders on the computer.
It's very frustrating!

Ah-Ha! Right, think I've worked out the problem!
When I save a photo from Photoshop, I often place it on the desktop with a view to e-mailing it or posting it somewhere on the internet. I've just looked at the file that was supposedly saved as a .psd, but under "properties" it has no file extension. So I added the .psd and bingo, up it popped in the LR import window! I've since gone into Photoshop preferences & ticked it to add a file extension. That's really odd - I've never deselected that option but, hey ho, mystery solved.
Many thanks for your patience Mr Paige, I should have looked at this before. Put it down to advancing senility...

I have Photoshop Elements 12 for both PC and Mac (I use both). I have a new camera, Nikon D810. I downloaded the latest version of Camera Raw, 8.8. My D810 is listed as a supported camera model. However, when I try to open a raw photo in Photoshop Elements, I keep getting the message "Could not complete your request because the file appears to be from a camera model which is not supported by the installed version of Camera Raw. I have tried reinstalling Camera Raw many times, and have tried to open many different raw files in Elements, and still get the same error message. Please help.

How did you try to install ACR 8.8. The only way I know of that works with Elements is to use the Updates Choice on the Help menu.
There are two charts supplied by Adobe that explain your RAW dilemma. This one tells you what your camera needs: http://helpx.adobe.com/creative-suite/kb/camera-raw-plug-supported-cameras.html This one tells you what version of software you need: http://helpx.adobe.com/x-productkb/global/camera-raw-compatible-applications.html
In your case, the Nikon D810 needs Adobe Camera Raw (ACR) 8.6 or Lightroom 5.6. (Congratulations on buying a new camera!)
To get to that level with Photoshop Elements, you will need to replace your Photoshop Elements 12 with version 13. Adobe caps ACR updates on version 12 at 8.5.
The most convenient way to get around it without spending any money is to use the FREE from Adobe DNG Converter. Download and install it from here for FREE: http://www.adobe.com/support/downloads/thankyou.jsp?ftpID=5855&fileID=5890 Once it is installed you can convert your D810 raw files to an Adobe RAW version with the .DNG file extension that most, if not all, versions of the various Adobe software programs can use. That includes old versions of Photoshop, Elements and Lightroom. DNG converter can be used as the tool to move your files from your memory card to your computer, is efficient, will convert in batches and is completely lossless. There is no risk of any image quality degradation or RAW functionality.

Use of the tools is pretty much the same in all versions of the program.
"Edit" is a menu item in Photoshop Elements Editor. Don't you see this?

Why can't I print a full page photo in Photoshop Elements 10???

Why can't I print a FULL PAGE PHOTO IN PHOTOSHOP ELEMENTS VERSION 10, (letter size 8.5 x 11?) I have tried resizing, cropping and anything else I can possibly think of to no avail!!! VERSION 7 was so easy just print (fit to page)! I'am pulling my hair out trying to accomplish this! If anyone can tell me how to do it I would be eternally grateful! Thanks Julie
P.S. I can't even print a 8 x 10 properly!

Sarah, my printer drivers are updated! This problem seems SO COMPLICATED when it should be so easy! It's like the more advanced these programs get the less you can figure them out!!!! I'am ready to offer a reward to fix this!!! The stress of trying to figure this out is making me crazy!

Sending a photo heavy PDF for book printing on a web press. Convert photo in photoshop first or Acrobat 11?

Hi,
The printing company for our photo book on Loons, uses roll fed web presses. They have asked for a pdf set to X-1a.
First soft proof was light and washed out. Printer had us increase saturation and contrast. Second proof
all our blue water photos come out more purple then blue.
We currently used srgb jpeg photos embedded in a ms word document. We used acrobat 11 to create the pdf using the request X-1a
setting.
Should we have converted the photos in photoshop to the requested setting first and then embedded them in word?
Thanks for any help.

Can you show us screen shots of your X-1 PDF Settings ( i.e., Color )? The reason why I ask is my default Distiller PDF-X1a:2001 Settings use a working space of RGB = sRGB IEC61966-2.1; and CMYK = US Web Coated (SWOP) v2 with the "Color Management Policies: "Convert All Colors to CMYK" ( default ); Rendering Intent ( default is "Preserve" ). Have you discussed these settings with the print service provider? These settings, if they are identical in Acrobat 11, would appear to have the same RGB work space as your original sRGB based pics. I sense that Word, although not a color managed application, would work as an image carrier into Acrobat 11 where the image files may retain their profiles going into Acrobat 11 and remain intact going out of Acrobat 11 via a PDF-X1a. In which case, the print service provider then RIP and Prints the file for a hardcopy proof. In your case, the previous digital printer did a good job reproducing the photos as you supplied them, Word or no Word. The question now becomes what changed with this new service provider? Their prepress people must of accepted your documents and pushed them through their workflow. So, what changed? I know of no way to "swap" images using Acrobat. In your case, it may be a matter of saving a second set of files or the entire book document as a copy and replacing the pics in that file, then create a second PDF-X1a file. And, as a third option, use InDesign ( however, no point in using it until you've determined where the problem with quality lies ). If I assume the printer told you that the sRGB files were sufficient and, if you used the X-1 PDF Settings when Saving As > PDF, that would be their preferred workflow and the image files rendered dull and unsaturated ( as they did in your case ), and the printer recommended you increase the saturation and HUE of the images ( which he did ) and the entire workflow worked for a digital printer in the past ( which it did ), then something changed with this new print service provider. You have to find out from them what it could be. It could be something with their direct-to-plate equipment. I believe it merits further research and development with the new service provider. There is a solution. You just have to find it.
"Once the pdf is created could I swap out the photos
for ones that had been converted from RGB to CMYK in photoshop with Rendering Intent and Black Point Compensation etc. filled. "...
Wait a minute. You did a RGB-to-CMYK conversion in Photoshop? Why? I thought you embedded the RGB files in Word? Then, Acrobat did the conversion using the X-1 settings mentioned above.
"How hard would it be to dump my word document into InDesign with the newly created RGB or CMYK photos would it work better? Is the learning curve too much of a hassle for one off?"...
Yes it would. But, your procedures worked for the digital printer. Why not now with the new printer? That's my question. Since Acrobat's X-1 settings have a work space of sRGB ( assumed ), then your sRGB files should render appropriately and they do not. You have to find out what works for this new print service provider and, whatever Photoshop Color Setting RGB workspace you use, use it in Acrobat 11. Discuss the entire document and Photoshop setups with the new print service provider.

How can I edit a photo in Photoshop Elements and have the edit appear in Windows 7, My Pictures?

In Windows XP Pro, any edit I made to a photo in Photoshop Elements 10 appeared automatically in that photo in My Pictures. This does not happen in my new Windows 7 computer. Can I change that and have the edit from PE10 appear in My Documents/My Pictures?

When you finish editing choose:
File >> Save As
Then choose a file name and folder and save.

Using iphoto and editing multiple photos in photoshop

I set iphoto to edit my photos in photoshop. I tried to edit a group of photos at once, and it'll only open the first 4 pictures. Is there a reason I can't open more than the first 4 photos that I have selected? Is there a setting in photoshop I need to change that is preventing me from opening more photos?
Thanks!

As Larry said that's a "limitation" of iPhoto. Report that to Apple via http://www.apple.com/feedback/iphoto.html. I think you can go back to iPhoto and select another 4 photos and open them in PS with the original 4 still open.
For what it's worth:
Using Photoshop (or Photoshop Elements) as Your Editor of Choice in iPhoto.
1 - select Photoshop as your editor of choice in iPhoto's General Preference Section's under the "Edit photo:" menu.
2 - double click on the thumbnail in iPhoto to open it in Photoshop. When you're finished editing click on the Save button. If you immediately get the JPEG Options window make your selection (Baseline standard seems to be the most compatible jpeg format) and click on the OK button. Your done.
3 - however, if you get the navigation window that indicates that PS wants to save it as a PS formatted file. You'll need to either select JPEG from the menu and save (top image) or click on the desktop in the Navigation window (bottom image) and save it to the desktop for importing as a new photo.
This method will let iPhoto know that the photo has been editied and will update the thumbnail file to reflect the edit..
NOTE: With Photoshop Elements 6 the Saving File preferences should be configured: "On First Save: Save Over Current File". Also I suggest the Maximize PSD File Compatabilty be set to Always.
If you want to use both iPhoto's editing mode and PS without having to go back and forth to the Preference pane, once you've selected PS as your editor of choice, reset the Preferences back to "Open in main window". That will let you either edit in iPhoto (double click on the thumbnail) or in PS (Control-click on the thumbnail and seledt "Edit in external editor" in the Contextual menu). This way you get the best of both worlds

TIP: For insurance against the iPhoto database corruption that many users have experienced I recommend making a backup copy of the Library6.iPhoto (iPhoto.Library for iPhoto 5 and earlier) database file and keep it current. If problems crop up where iPhoto suddenly can't see any photos or thinks there are no photos in the library, replacing the working Library6.iPhoto file with the backup will often get the library back. By keeping it current I mean backup after each import and/or any serious editing or work on books, slideshows, calendars, cards, etc. That insures that if a problem pops up and you do need to replace the database file, you'll retain all those efforts. It doesn't take long to make the backup and it's good insurance.
I've created an Automator workflow application (requires Tiger or later), iPhoto dB File Backup, that will copy the selected Library6.iPhoto file from your iPhoto Library folder to the Pictures folder, replacing any previous version of it. It's compatible with iPhoto 6 and 7 libraries and Tiger and Leopard. iPhoto does not have to be closed to run the application, just idle. You can download it at Toad's Cellar. Be sure to read the Read Me pdf file.≤br>
Note: There now an Automator backup application for iPhoto 5 that will work with Tiger or Leopard.

Deleting a photo from Photoshop Elements 11 editor

Nothing is actually "in" the editor. It's just like most other programs you might use to open a file, not like organizer that's making a database of your photos. Just close it there, either from the image window or tab's close button, or by pressing ctrl+W (command+W on a mac).

Problem syncing photos with Photoshop Elements 5.0

I have a problem with syncing my photos using Photoshop Elements 5.0 to my AppleTV.
After marking I want to use elements it shows my catalogs.
But after syncing no photos are transferred to my AppleTV.
I do get a circle with an explanation mark behind my AppleTV in iTunes, but it doesn't give any further information.
The problem exists both when trying to sync all photos or selected catalogs from Elements.
When I sync from folders or my pictures the pictures arrive without problem on my ATV
Since I don't want all of my photos to be sent to my AppleTV, I would really like to use my Photoshop Elements.
Anybody any suggestions?
Thnx,
Egbert

Hello,
I'm seeing exactly the same described bahavior using iTune 7.4.3 and PhotoShop Elements 5.0. I tried at least 4 versions of ITunes with all the same behavior. It's fine to sync from MyPictures but not from PhotoShop Elements Collections and these are exactly the same pictures that both are pointing to so no format issues. Same behavior from iTunes, a warning sign appears next to the AppleTV but when I click on it it does not show any text to describe the issue ?
I doubt that the iTunes + Phitoshow elements 5.0 couple works at all ?
Can anybody help with this ? Maybe Apple ?
Regards
Eric

I need step by step instructions on how to move an object from one photo to another photo - in Photoshop CC 2014.

How do you move an object in one photo to another photo in Photoshop CC 2014

In the document with the object select the object and use copy (Crtl|CMD+C) then in the other image document use paste (Crtl|CMD+V).
However its not a move its a copy the object is still in the original image. (Crtl|CMD+X) instead of (Crtl|CMD+C) would cut the object out of the first image but leave a hole there that you would need to fill with a replacement to complete a move.
