Droplet to send images to Image Processor from Mac Finder?

Is there a way to create droplet that will just send whatever images you drop on it to the Photoshop Image Processor script?
Basically the same thing that happens when you select images from Bridge and select Image Processor from the Tools > Photoshop menu.
I'd just like a way to do that via drag and drop from the Finder.
Thanks.

No, Bridge can communicate with Photoshop to send a list of the selected files, this can not be done with a droplet

How to send a message(apple event) from mac os to our application

on developer.apple.com i found a method which opens a given documetns through an apple event.
my question is how to send open document event from mac to our application on xcode

Assuming you're using Cocoa, the simplest solution is to call -[NSWorkspace openFile:withApplication:]. Example:
NSWorkspace *ws = [NSWorkspace sharedWorkspace];
NSString *appPath = [ws absolutePathForAppBundleWithIdentifier: @"com.apple.textedit"];
[ws openFile: @"/path/to/file" withApplication: appPath];

How do I open a photo from Mac Finder in Lightroom?

Here's the problem: I frequently need to search for photos in the Mac Finder (I actually use HoudahSpot and Path Finder, but it's similar with an exception I note below). I can search for keywords, like "yosemite." But the Finder and QuickLook are rather limiting; they don't reveal much photo metadata if any, and of course they show originals, since any edits or developments are in LR, not in the files themselves. And one does not export willy nilly, for that would defeat the purpose of having a DAM.
So far, OK (I'd love to have LR integrated into more applications, as Aperture and iPhoto are in some "Insert" menus, or in dialog boxes, but that would be too useful...maybe the new Photos application? ). So I'm looking at a jpeg (because Apple still doesn't have support for my RAWs, but same result) that I think I wanna use. And I want to find it in Lightroom. But if I double click it, of course I'd get Photoshop or whatever application is the default for images. In Path Finder or some other utilities, unlike the Finder, I can actually select open in LR. But when LR does open, it shoots me to the import module. Not what I want.
So, if one is looking at an image file in Finder, or otherwise outside LR, how does one easily and quickly go to that image in LR, in the Library module? sort of a "find in LR" command?
I was looking around for Applescripts or Automator workflows, but only find ones that import, not find. There's an automator "find in iPhoto" step, but interestingly the Aperture one is deprecated. I thought I might have been able to modify it.
GraphicConverter has a very nice "service," "GraphicConverter: Open in Browser" that does exactly what I want. But I couldn't find one for LR (and it's kinda hard to search successfully online for "services" related to LR, and I didn't find any services).
Ideas?

I have written the Lr (plugin) side, and created the capability to use Windows "Send to..." context menu to send a list of folders/files to Lightroom for selection.
Here is the content of the god-aweful command file which does it in Windows, 'Lightroom File Selector.bat':
@echo off
for %%x in (%*) do (
    call :concat %%x
start "%~n0" "lightroom://com.robcole.FileListener/Select/%pstr%"
exit
:concat
set a=%1
set lc=%a:~-1%
if "%lc%%lc%"=="""" (
    set pstr=%pstr%[%a:~1,-1%];
) else (
    set pstr=%pstr%[%a%];
Note: what it's doing is wrapping/separating all the folder/filenames received as arguments to the bat file, then appending them to the base url, for example:
If you select folder "C:\MyFolder' and file 'C:\MyFiles\myfile.jpg' in Windows Explorer, then invoke the 'Send to' context menu item (or drag and drop directly on bat file), it will send the URL:
lightroom://com.robcole.FileListener/Select/[C:\MyFolder];[C:\MyFiles\myfile.jpg];
to whichever app is registered to handle it, i.e. Lightroom, which parses the plugin ID, and passes it to the plugin, which then parses the paths and then does the same thing as the "Choose Files Via OS & Select In Lightroom" script.
Although I haven't got the Mac end, the goal would be the same - somehow translate the target folder/file paths from the format they're in to the requisite URL format and submit to OS, which submits to Lr, which submits to plugin.
You can download the plugin here:

There is no web page nor documentation for it, yet.

Reveal in Bridge from Mac Finder

Hello all you Creative Suite users!
I want to right-click a folder in the Mac Finder (OS 10.5 or newer) and be able to choose Reveal in Bridge.
This is the reverse of right-clicking a folder within Bridge and choosing Reveal in Finder.
In Windows 7, an edit of the Registry gets this job done.
How can I accomplish this on Mac OS X (10.5 or newer)?
Best to you,
Mike Witherell in Maryland
PS: I am using CS6 on a two-year-old MacBookPro running 10.5.x

Couple of years down the line, but here are the instructions to write your own automator script for opening files from Finder into Bridge
1. Open Automator - you can do this by just typing the name into the spotlight search tool on the top right of your screen then click on it when it comes up as the top hit.
2. In the dialog that automator offers you when it opens, choose Service
3. At the top right 'Service receives selected' choose files or folders and Finder in the dialogue boxes. Then drag Open Finder Items from the list to the left and find Adobe Bridge CS6 in the dialogue box that comes up on the right in that red highlighted area - you may have to choose other and navigate to the Bridge app.
4. Save the file giving it a name that makes sense (like Open in Bridge CS6) as it is what you will see when you get the context sensitive menu (see below)

How to get handoff from mac to iOS to work properly

I have MBP late 2012, and can send SMS text messages from Mac, send and receive phone calls from Mac, however, cannot use handoff with Mail, Messages, Safari, and the like. Tried all restarting, re-logging in, etc. No help.
Any suggestions?
Handoff works perfectly between iPhone 6 and iPad Air. But not between my iOS device and MBP.

I Got everything to work properly by signing out of iCloud on iOS device and then signing back in, restarting, then shutting off Bluetooth and then back on on both MBP and ios device. But, if you have two iOS devices, make sure that one iOS device Bluetooth is turned off until your MacBook Pro is recognizing handoff with the second iOS device. Then, you can turn the first iOS device Bluetooth back on.

Problem using Image Processor from Bridge

I have been using the Image Processor to process photos from Bridge for quite some time. However, I recently received an error message when I try to initiate Image Processor from Bridge and I have not been able to find any help topics that address my problem: I select images in Bridge to process, then click "Tools>Photoshop>Image Processor". Photoshop opens and the familiar Image Processor dialog box opens. Item 1 in the dialog box says "Process files from Bridge only" and has the number of files I have selected in parenteses. I select the file type and other settings in #3, and preferences in #4. When I click "Run", I get an error message window that says: "Script Alert. There were no source files that could be opened by Photoshop". The Image Processor works if I open the files in Photoshop first, then run it by selecting "File>Scripts>Image Processor" and tell it to process all open files.
Would someone be able to help me with this problem?
Thanks, Larry

Usually when it worked before and not now, and you have added no new software or hardware I recommend resetting the preferences. Hold down the Ctrl key and click on the Bridge icon to start. You should get a reset window with 3 options.

Installed photoshop cc (2014) and lost image processor from Bridge

How do I get back Image Processor from the Tools drop down menu in Bridge? I have uninstalled and reinstalled both Bridge and Photoshop and have no positive results.

I know some modules went kablooey when I uninstalled Photoshop CC 14.x but I fixed it by uninstalling everything and reinstalling.
Maybe try the CC Cleaner Tool?

Using Image Processor from Bridge

I'm trying to use the image processor from within Bridge. I have done this several times in the past, as recently as last week.
I have some files selected in Bridge. I select "Tools>Photoshop>Image Processor" and the dialog box opens. Step 1 indicates that I have files to process (10 in this instance), and I have JPEG selected as the file type to process. When I click "Run", I get an error message that says "Script Alert" in the title. The message in the window says "There were no source files that could be opened by Photoshop".
I opened the same 10 files in Photoshop, and I was able to run the Image Processor on them while they were open in Photoshop. I'd rather not do this unless I have to.
I haven't added any new programs or plug ins since the last time I used the Image Processor from Bridge.
I had the same problem in early June, and the solution suggested then fixed the problem. I'm experienceing the same problem today, and the same solution doesn't seem to be working now.
The previous solution was to reset the preferences by holding down the Ctrl key and clicking on the Bridge icon to start. A reset window with 3 options popped up. Now, w
I would sincerely appreciate any help you could give me with this.
Thanks,
Larryhen I hold the control key down and click on the Bridge icon, I don't get the reset window. I tried it by control-clicking on the Bridge icon from within Photoshop, and I tried it by control-clicking on the Bridge icon from my desktop with Photoshop closed.

Read you original post again and your last post and now I am confused.
You said you reset your Bridge preferences, yet in post #1 you said " I hold the control key down and click on the Bridge icon, I don't get the reset window. I tried it by control-clicking on the Bridge icon from within Photoshop, and I tried it by control-clicking on the Bridge icon from my desktop with Photoshop closed.
So with this said you have not reset the preferences unless you have gone in and deleted the file. The Bridge Icon is the one one the desktop that you click to start Bridge.
BUT, in last post you say you have a Mac. So to reset preference believe it is Cmd key.
No matter how you do it you need to get the reset window with the 3 reset options.

CS5 Crashes using Image Processor from Bridge

Photoshop CS5 64 and 32 crashes when using the image processor from Bridge after 200 images or so. Converting 1000 RAW files to PSD or PSD to JPEG takes multiple reloads. any ideas?

I've encountered a non-repeatable variation of this problem from time to time: crash occurs at startup of image processor when Photoshop is open and has been running for some time. (I've not seen the error where Bridge > Image Processor causes launch of Photoshop.) Once I've started a run it has not failed to complete all images (but I'm not converting RAW files and not as many files as 1000). ScriptingSupport.8li is listed in event log problem signature.

How do i send an html file exported from muse as email blast with images and live links?

My question it:
How do i send an html file exported from muse as email blast with images and live links?
I have designed a "website" in adobe muse and exported it as an html file. I am not sure how to send my .html file in an email!
Best,
Nicole

Unfortunately, the answer is, you don't. The requirements for HTML displayed in an e-mail reader are very different than those for HTML displayed in a browser. The output of Muse won't work as an HTML e-mail. You could upload the Muse site as a website and provide a link to it in an e-mail, but the HTML generated by Muse is not suitable for direct display by an e-mail program.

Using image processor from RAW format to JPEG, the images are suddenly very muted colour, greyish tone, and just awful looking.

Any ideas as to why, when I am converting a group of images through image processor into JPEG, the resulting images are AWFUL. I have been using this process for years without a concern, and suddenly the JPEG files are very greyish, muted tones and just terrible looking… HELP! I'm WAY too busy right now to be dealing with this and having to manually save each image to JPEG

Which Color Space are the images in?

Updated to 7.0 Can't send print-screen image and o...

after upgraded to 7.0, I can't send the print screen image by Ctrl-V into the message box.
I can send only text by Ctrl-V now...

2 issues
1. ALT + PRT + SCR PTR to capture a screen print and the CTRL + V into the chatbox still works but the receiving party since 1 or 2 days seems to receive blurry images. These images are so blurry that they become unreadable. I understand that i can sent images with file transfer, but when you do this 100 times per day this requires me to first open an image editor, save the image, then click on file transfer, find the image and press send. So this blurry variant that is sent now is really an issue for me.
2. from time to time, files that are sent simpy do not arrive on the other side. So i can be speaking to the other side but the image randomly simply doesn't arrive. This issue comes and goes and it affects file transfers and pasted images into the chat.

Can i install flar image of solaris 10 from V890 to v480?

Team,
Please help me for a confusion that can i install flar image of solaris 10 from V890 to v480?
We have very good flar image of solaris 10 and want to install same on other machine.
this machine hosting the Oracle database on it.
Thanks
Ravi

Generally speaking, as long as you are in the same processor family (4u, 4m, 4c, 4v etc) you can do so.
The caveat is that the OS has to support the particular model you are on. No worries with S10 though.

Small images received by recipients from Mail

When I email an attached image which has been set as "actual size" some receipents get small images rather then the full size image. The email is being sent in Rich Text and the receipents that are having this problem are on Outlook.
When I send the identical images in HTML from Earthink web mail they do arrive on those same computers full size.
What is the problem and what is the solution? I am using the latest Mail 7.3 program on the latest OS 10.9.3 on a MacBook Pro mid 2012 Retina.

Are you using iPhoto as your email client or Mail? If you're using Mail there are two places where you need to make sure the size is what you want:
1 - here in iPhoto:
2 - and again here in Mail:
If you're using iPhoto as the email client as a test launch iPhoto with the Option key held down and create a new, test library. Import some photos and test to see if the same problem persists. Does it?
IMO using Mail as the email client is preferable because it gives you better access to your Contacts, gives you a Sent copy that's easy to find and, if you want a theme like iPhoto provides, has stationary with phtoo themes.
