Don't want new tiff files saved in my catologue if I'm only using the image for a composite.

When editing in Photoshop CS4 from LR3, the new tif will not appear in the catalogue unless I save it in PS. In LR4 it saves a new tiff in my catalogue regardless if I save the edited image in PS or not. I have a cloud library I use often and do not want new files saved in my LR catologue if I'm only using the opened image for compositing. Can anyone help me figure out how to change the workflow to be like LR3?

i think adobe should support new cameras for older CS versions too.
in the end PS is expensive enough to justifie a better support.
How far back would you go? One version? Three? Where should the line be drawn? Adobe draws the line at the currently shipping version...it's now CS5 and shortly it will be CS6.
Even if Adobe were to do this, you do realize that trying to put new plug-ins into older software is really tough. For example on the Mac, Photoshop CS5 requires that the plug-in be written in Apple's Cocoa API. Camera Raw 5 required a major update to be able to run in Cocoa...retrofitting Camera Raw 5 to run in a PPC platform (supported by CS3/CS4 but not supported by CS5) would be difficult–a lot of work for zero return. As a result of the engineering challenges of backwards compatibility Adobe has the policy of only updating currently shipping software to current customers. Truth be told, if you don't have the most recent version, you are not a current customer...you are a former customer. Having Adobe spend R&D engineering backwards compatibility to support former customers would take resources away from supporting current customers. As a current customer, I wouldn't like that.
But it's all a moot point because I don't see any evidence that Adobe is going to change this policy for backwards compatibility. In fact, going forward, Adobe is already announced the change to Photoshop upgrade rules allowing only the most recent version to be upgraded to the new version. Because of the reaction that only CS5/5.5 could upgrade to CS6, Adobe blinked and now has given a grace period till the end of 2012 for CS3 & CS4 users to upgrade to CS6.
Again many people don't like this, but as a pro user of Photoshop, I always upgrade anyway so it has no impact on me. Yes, it will bite some people and I can have sympathy, but again, you always have the free DNG Converter to use in the case you need new camera support. And hey, the new cameras come with software to process their raw files, right?

  • After the new 10.9.2 Maverick upgrade, my Photosmart C4480 3 in 1 printer can not scan and save the file to desktop or documents.  You can only see the image in the print preview area. Does anyone know how to fix this or when a fix will be out?

    After Aple support downloaded the new 10.9.2 Maverick upgrade on my MacBook Air, my Photosmart C4480 3 in 1 printer can not scan a document and load the file on to my desktop or document file. (You can see the doc image in the preview but it doesn't save it.) Does anyone know an Apple fix for this or when the fix will be out?  After hours of trying reloading, and the usual fixes, etc. Apple told me to call HP, and HP told me they don't support Mac.  It does not seem honorable of Apple to put out an upgrade and not tell people it will destroy their scanning ability, and that the only thing to do is to buy another printer/scanner.

  • I don't want to upgrade to Firefox 5 because it won't let me use the Google toolbar. How can I stop the constant notifications?

    I have Firefox 4.01, retrieved (thankfully) after installing Firefox 5. I noticed upon installation that my Google Toolbar was gone and the notification said Google Toolbar was not compatible with the new version of Firefox. After retrieving the copy of 4.01 from oldversions.com, I started getting bombarded with requests to upgrade to Firefox 5.0. This goes on all day, all night...it never stops. Is there a place I can ask you guys to please stop? I'll upgrade when you make this version compatible with Google's Toolbar.

    The replies don't address the question: "I started getting bombarded with requests to upgrade to Firefox 5.0. This goes on all day, all night...it never stops. Is there a place I can ask you guys to please stop?"
    I have the same problem: I also don't want to upgrade to 5.0 (4.0 messed me up enough and I finally got that straightened out). How do I stop those annoying requests? It should have a "No" option.
    Please email replies to [email protected] Thanks.

  • Don't want to save files online.

    Hello...
    My computer is Mac.  As I downloaded a PDF file, I clicked File --> Save As.
    Then I got 3 lines:
    Line 1: Save as (file name)
    Line 2: Where (desktop)
    Line 3: save to "online account"/ "acrobat.com" / "new account"
    Without noticing being given three options, I clicked "online account.", and then I discovered what I just clicked...
    It is a confidential file, and I don't want it to be saved online.
    (already saved successfully onto my desktop in my computer, which is OK.)
    Is there any way to make sure that there is no online version of it?
    Please help!  Thank you!

    There wasn't any offline option after clicking "Save As".  But as I checked cloud, there is no online version of the file.  So it's solved.
    Thank you for answering!

  • New iMac. Flash drive is primary for OS and apps.  I want to use my HD 2 (1 TB hard drive) for my bulky photo and music files.  Can I direct iPhoto and iTunes to use the larger hard drive as the primary target when importing?

    New iMac. Flash drive is primary for OS and apps.  I want to use my HD 2 (1 TB hard drive) for my bulky photo and music files.  Can I direct iPhoto and iTunes to use the larger hard drive as the primary target when importing?

    Yes.  Unfortunately, I don't know the specifics because I don't use iPhoto anymore and I completely copied over 15 years of MP3 files recently when I installed 10.7.  Needless to say, I have not opened iTunes since and probably never will again - not because of iTunes but because of my stupidity.  I did have some of the files backed up but I hadn't backed up in a while.......anyway....
    When I imported my CD's, I had them go directly to my external firewire.  I can't remember exactly how to set it, but in the preference section of iTunes you can specify an import destination to any drive that's available to your machine.  I did this with iPhoto as well way back at one point when I was using Tiger, but I don't remember the specifics on that either.  I can't imagine they would have discontinued support for that feature since then. 
    Sorry I couldn't help more.

  • Can I use gpt to recreate/unerase a partition table? (Rebuild the GPT/GUID partition table?)  I don't want to do FILE recovery.

    (Yes, I've  googled a bunch and read threads like this one already.)
    Can I use gpt or some other app to recreate/unerase a partition table?  That is, how can I rebuild a disk's GPT/GUID partition table?)  I don't want to do FILE recovery.
    What happened: Instead of erasing a single partition off a disk with many partitions, the entire partition table was erased (using Disk Utility, w/o deleting the underlying files).  Somehow the "Erasing a disk deletes all data on all its partitions." warning message was missed.
    I have a copy of the output of df, with the number of blocks in each partition, from just prior to the erasure, so I should be able to recreate the GPT/GUID partition table.  Editing the GPT with a hex editor is not feasible.  Simply recreating the partitions with Disk Utility will overwrite the key filesystem tables on each partition, and I don't want to do that, plus Disk Utility doesn't allow me to specify exact partition sizes anyway.
    Surely there's an app for rebuilding the partition table (other than emacs' hexl-mode!) for recreating/unerasing a partition table when the partition sizes and orders are known?  I've looked at the advertising for a bunch of recovery software and none of them clearly indicate that they will do what I want. 
    I guess I can try using gpt on a copy of the reformatted drive I've made with dd, and see what happens.  But perhaps someone knows of a tool that should do what I need, or knows if gpt is that tool or not.
    There are answers and tools that will do FILE recovery - search for files and recover the ones that aren't fragmented or deleted.  As far as I can find, they just look for files on the disk, and don't pay much, if any attention to the filesystem info or directory heirarchy, which in this case is valuable.  Of course I could send it in to DriveSavers, or the like.  But none of that seems necessary, and the scavenging file recovery apps won't do the job well,
    E.g. some are mentioned here:
    I don't want to do FILE recovery.
    Thanks for any help.

    Aperture has the ability to work with files in their existing location. They are called "referenced masters." When you import images, you should select the "In their current location" in the "Store Files:" drop down box. Have a read of the documentation for full specifics. Unsure how you can resolve your duplication; might be some work but next time have a read of the manual first
    Information for versions is stored in the Aperture database (library file). The masters can be inside the library file itself, or they can be somewhere else.

  • I want to share files between my MacBook Pro and G5, I am using an AirPort

    I want to share files between my MacBook Pro and G5, I am using an AirPort Extreme Base Station. I can see the MacBook Pro on the G5 and vice versa, I have file sharing turned on both, as well as Screen Sharing. I currently am sharing using Target Disk Mode, I want to know what other wireless options are available to me?
    I want to have the 2 computers able to see each other and be able to share files be drag and dropping, I also have another G4 on using Tiger I want to be a part of this happy Apple sharing family. Can someone please tell me how to accomplish my goal?
    Thanks in advance for reading and replying to my post,
    Sebastian

    The mac help is: Finder window/Help/Mac Help. It provides answers to a lot of common questions, including file sharing.
    As for the ethernet cable, you can either buy another one (inexpensive and available in many places including Walmart), or just unplug it from your modem temporarily and plug it back in when you're done.
    As for Target disk mode, take a look at this Apple article:
    http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=58583
    Apple online support pages are also a great way to find out how to do things.
    As I mentioned, I prefer using the ethernet/file sharing method if I need to copy a lot of files; however, there is another way around if you have an external drive and just want to copy one or two files. Just plug the external into one computer, copy the file onto it, unplug, plug into the other computer and copy.

  • How do I delete duplicate songs in my iTunes? I have hundreds and I don't want to delete them one by one. They were all added on the same date, so sorting by the date won't help.

    How do I delete duplicate songs in my iTunes? I have hundreds and I don't want to delete them one by one. They were all added on the same date, so sorting by the date won't help.

    Hi, if this is in regards to your library simply open up itunes and do the following steps:
    Click File
    Scroll down to "show duplicates"
    A list will then appear of your duplicate song titles.
    Be sure to CAREFULLY review each song to make sure it is a duplicate ( as I have some music that is the same song but live, acoustic etc...)
    Proceed to manually delete each song from the list and leave alone any song that you wish to keep.
    Best of luck,

  • This is an error from my HP scanner. How can I fix the problem? An error has occurred saving the file because it could not be written to. Check the properties for the file to make sure it is not read-only.

    I recently uploaded the Maverick operating system. I wanted to scan some things on my HP Printer/Scanner and could not . This is the error message I received: An  error has occurred saving the file because it could not be written to.   Check the properties for the file to make sure it is not read-only. I am a novice with the computer and have no one to help. I hope someone knows an easy fix.
    Thank you

    This worked for me:
    "Although it is not a 'fix' for the HP issue, I did find a workaround that helped me. In the Preferences Panel in MacOS X you can pull up the Printer/Scanner preferences and scan directly from OS X. I'd not known of this prior to posting here and it worked like a charm."
    "Of course, HP should still update their software, but it's good to know that Apple has it covered for them."

    We use a doc template to create a purchased part spec document and then save them as pdf formatted files.  These part spec documents are also appended with the datasheets for these purchased parts.  When we want to update/revise the document, is there a method, using Acrobat, to make those updates to the pdf, or must we go back to the doc template and basically generate a new document?
    Also, our resulting pdf documents aren't searchable.  How can we generate pdf documents that are searchable?  I may want to search for a part value or name within the body of these pdf documents, but currently can't do that...very inconvenient.
    Can you assist?

    Not totally sure about the search issue. A lot depends on how you created the PDF and what is in the datasheets you attached (like are they graphics?). The doc portion should be searchable as long as you used print to the Adobe PDF printer or PDF Maker. For your use, it may be that the print is adequate. However, the result should be searchable (unless maybe you had a form with filled in fields and created the PDF with PDF Maker. I think the form data may be retained in form fields and the fields are not searchable. In that case, a print might be a better procedure. (it would help to know the versions of WORD and Acrobat as well as the exact process you used to create the PDF.)
    If the appended data sheets do not change, then you might try opening the original PDF and then using Replace Pages to replace the file created from the DOC file.
