Editted files end up massive

Just moved to mac from PC & have just set up a trial copy of CS4. I must have it setup incorrectly as whenever I edit an image it ends up as an unbelievably massive file.I am editting a raw file of about 10M, but end up with a TIFF file of 200M plus. I only have 3 layers.
WHat do I need to look at in setup info to work out what I am doing wrong.

I assume youre ussing Adobe Camera Raw for convertion,you can check in the bottom of your screen the settings for the convertion.Its ussualy a good idea to edit your image in 16bits for too many reason to enumerate here but the main reason is that any editing is the same as partially "destroing" your image and that helps to prevent serious "damage".
If you're sure you're done with editing go to menu Image > Mode and change from 16bit to 8bit.

    What are you going for....DVD-VIDEO Widescreen on DVD disc or AVCHD format on DVD disc?
    Are you doing your burn to disc with a check mark next to "Fit Content To Available Space" in the burn dialog?
    When you have the DVD 4.7 GB/120 min in the burner tray and are in the burn dialog ready to hit Burn, what does the burn dialog quality area show for Space Require and Bitrate with and without the check mark next to "Fit Content To Available Space"?
    Just in case mention....the DVD disc with the 4.7 GB/120 min in reality is 4.38 GB.
    The goal is to find out if you are overlooking the "Fit Content To Available Space" option in the burn dialog. Depending on the circumstances to be defined, use of that option does not necessarily mean a compromise in the end product quality.
    Let us start here and then move forward based on the details of your reply.
    Thank you.

  • Save of edited file does not change file size correctly

    I have QT pro 7.6 and have all the latest DirectX and drivers for my PC. I have a problem with file size reporting correctly for edited files.
    For example, I have three files: A.MOV (10mb), B.MOV (15mb), and C.MOV (25mb). If I load A and then copy B and C to the end of it, I can do a File Save As to create D.MOV as a self contained movie which shows estimated size as 50mb. And the saved file IS 50mb.
    However, If (after appending B and C to the end of A) I just do a "Save" command, A.MOV file size is not changed and still shows 10mb. The whole movie A-B-C plays correctly, but the file size is incorrect. Where is the rest of the data? I know the new A.MOV is self contained because I can delete B and C and it still plays all three segments. I'm concerned that if the file size is reported incorrectly there is the chance that the data will get lost in a future copy or move operation. Does anyone else experience this bug or is it just something in my PC?

    I stopped following this issue a few years ago, but as I recall, this is a known bug in the way PSE handles the writing of the tags to the photo files.
    I stopped following this issue because I switched to Lightroom which does not have this issue. Yes, you could do this with Exiftool and re-save the metadata from PSE, seems kind of cumbersome.
    Also, please note that if you Export the file from the PSE Organizer, as far as I know the proper tags should appear, so if you want the proper tags in your files, you could use this feature.

    Try adding .epub to the end of the name.
    I assume you are aware that to open an .epub file you need a special app, not TextEdit or Pages, right?

  • LR2: Naming of the Copy of an Edited File

    Hi,
    For editing files (e. g. in CS4) I use a naming mask like {Filename}_{Sequence # (01)>>}. The >> in the end is one character that for some reason I cannot copy&paste out of Lightroom. Not sure what its relevance is.
    My problem with that mask is that when I edit an already edited file I would like LR to increase the Sequence by 1 but instead LR adds another sequence.
    As an example: an original file _MG_0815.CR2 becomes _MG_0815_01.PSD and then _MG_0815_01_01.PSD. However I want the last name to be _MG_0815_02.PSD.
    Is there any way to achieve the latter?
    Thanks and regards, Robert

    The paths won't agree on the two OSs so a simple XML import isn't likely to work.
    See Sync iPod/iPad/iPhone with two computers and, if needed, Make a split library portable. The techniques in the first link will work when moving the library between Windows and OS X as long as the library is "portable", but iTunes takes quite some time checking the database when the library is opened under a different OS.

  • How to edit files directly from server?

    I'm new to dreamweaver (CS5) and I'm really lost when it comes to editing files directly in remote servers.
    When you add a new site, you have to select a Local Site Folder. I dont mind that html editor saves auto backups to my computer, but I really dont want to download files from the server, edit them and upload them back to the server. In my work I always edit files directly over SFTP servers.
    After spending time configuring DW, I can now connect to the remote server, edit a file and save it to the server (I know that really the files are automatically downloaded to my pc and sent back when saved). The only problem with this is that everytime I open a file from server, I get this annoying prompt "Do you wish to overwrite your local copy of [FILE]?"
    How can I disable this for good, or is the dreamweaver just not the right tool to edit files directly from servers?

    Again, if you are doing it the easy way, you don't download files from the server to edit them.
    Always edit local files. Then upload them.
    When you open Dreamweaver, your Files panel should be showing Local View, NOT Remote View. That way you are working with local files.
    The way you're doing it here's what happens:
    1. You doubleclick a file in the Files panel (Remote View)
    2. Dreamweaver connects to your server and MUST download the file and related content (because the software IS NOT installed on the server and you CANNOT edit there)
    3. When the file is downloaded, Dreamweaver asks if you wish to overwrite the local file because when you save it before putting the file back, your OS will not allow two files of the same name in the same location and the file MUST be saved before you can put it back.
    4. You then put the file to the server, overwriting the original file.
    All of that can be avoided by simply opening THE LOCAL FILE and editing it. Then you put it to the server, and overwrite the original with the edited file.
    "What if someone else modifies a file on the server after I saved it, when I open and edit a local file, wont I just replace it when I upload it?"
    If multiple people have access to the same files on the server, you NEED to have collaboration software so that when a change is made it can be saved by EVERYONE who has access to the site. Something like LiveCycle.
    Without that your site will be a mess in no time because six different people (or more) will have six different copies of six different sites locally and they will all be working on it at the same time and it will end up like a Three Stooges movie where Larry, Curly and Moe are all cooking dinner and each adds the same ingredients at different times.

  • Help!Airport Extreme Drive: Editing Files in Windows adds mysterious 0 char

    Hi, I'm experiencing what's probably the strangest bug I've seen in a long time. Maybe you know what to do...
    Hardware: Airport Extreme + USB Harddisk (Lacie Two Big in RAID 1 mode) connected to it. Airport Driver is at the latest version (7.2.1) (also tried with 7.2 with the same result)
    The whole thing works beautifully with my Macbook Pro.
    My Windows XP computer sees the harddisk, can access the files. I can also copy files from the computer's hard drive to the Airport Disk well.
    But when I edit files (with OpenOffice, Notepad, ...) the files end up corrupt, e.g. with 0 characters (ascii 0) inserted at the beginning.
    Here's what I'm doing:
    1. in the windows explorer, get to a folder on the remote disk.
    2. right mouse button -> new text file.
    3. double click on text file --> notepad comes up
    4. type 1234 , then save
    5. double click on text file --> content is " 1234"
    6. file size is also 8 bytes instead of 4, in emacs hex mode I can see that the first four characters that were magically appearing are ascii 0 characters.
    If I do the same with different text, a different number of null characters are prepended, always as many characters as I was entering.
    Strangely, creating the same file on a local drive and copying it to the airport HD doesn't mess it up.
    I have no clue what could cause this bizarre effect, but my airport harddisk is pretty unusable until I found out how to get Windows to save files properly on it. Did anybody experience something similar?

    Others have reported this problem, and from the many discussions I have seen on this topic there is no effective solution. There seem to be (thus far) unexplained reliability problems with saving/retrieving files on the Airport disk, which trouble some people more than others.
    The best workaround is to do what you have already discovered - do all file editing on a local copy of the file. Then copy the file to the Airport disk when editing is complete.

  • I am using both PSE 13 and Lightroom 5.  When I use Lightroom as an external editor and save the photo, it shows up in PSE13 as an edited file but does not look any different.  Why doesn't it appear edited?

    I am using both PSE 13 and Lightroom 5.  When I use Lightroom as an external editor and save the photo, it shows up in PSE13 as an edited file but does not look any different.  Why doesn't it appear edited?

    People who have Photoshop, but don't have Lightroom, need ACR so that they can use Raw files. Without ACR they could do nothing with those (they may also like having ACR so that they can work on other kinds of image using the same kinds of adjustments and techniques, as are used with Raw files).
    People who have Lightroom, can get access to Raw files regardless whether ACR is present or not. They can use Lightroom on other kinds of image also, using the same methods. LR can pass images directly into Photoshop without passing via ACR (or else does so transparently, which amounts to substantially the same thing).
    ACR does not, strictly speaking, even need to be installed for this external editing to happen. In fact, not even PS needs to be - since a different image editor can be used instead, while still retaining the Adobe Raw conversion etc.
    Lightroom "subcontracts out" specialised external tasks, in this workflow, but is still your "main contractor": the image is otherwise located, viewed, managed, adjusted/presented and output entirely using LR.
    So IMO we can divide image processing into:
    operations that involve pixels and layers and layer masks and adjustment layers etc (of the kind done inside Photoshop)
    operations that involve parametric edits (of the kind done in ACR where you are not using a Lightroom based workflow; otherwise, done inside Lightroom)
    When PS is called in, that's because those tasks are impossible or unsuitable to do in Lightroom. But those tasks can't be done in ACR either - by definition, since LR and ACR have exactly the same image processing "feature set".
    Lightroom is irrelevant to the Bridge + ACR + PS workflow. This workflow requires both your PS and your ACR to be current enough, to support your Raw format etc.
    ACR and Bridge are irrelevant to the LR + (image editor) workflow. It is in this case, only LR which needs to be current enough to support your Raw format etc.

  • Is there a way to edit files?

    Is there a way to edit files in iTunes? What I would like to do, in one or two cases, is keep half a file.
    For example, I have one file which consists of an interview followed by a song, I'd like to discard the interview but keep the song.

    That's helpful, thanks. Is there a way of getting rid of the unwanted portion, so as to save memory?

  • Boot Camp And Viewing\Editing Files From Windows

    I just ordered Leopard and I'm going to putting it on my 20 Imac next weekend. My plans are to install Windows Vista home premium through boot camp. Is there a way to access files from Windows on Leopard and vice-versa? I have MS Office for Mac and Windows and I do photo editing and it would be nice to access and edit files as needed whatever OS I'm without having to reboot. Some kind of third party software available for this? Parallels is OUT OF THE QUESTION for me. I tried it a few months ago and it was nothing but a nightmare. Left me with a really bad taste for it.
    Thanks.

    Thanks Kappy,
    I did a quick look at MacDrive and looks like what I was wanting. Will download the trial after my transition. Another question: When I install and setup Boot Camp will there be an option to format the partition in NTFS or does it do it by default?
    Thanks again for the tip on MacDrive. I've only had this Mac for about 6 months and just learning what is probably old news to you.

  • How to edit file attachments in Mavricks Mail?

    Does anyone know how to edit file attachments in Mavricks Mail?
    Eudora, Foxmail and many other email programs allow you to simply click file attachment, open it, edit it, and FORWARD it to others.
    This is extremely difficult with Mail because it forces every single incoming file attachment to be READ-ONLY which means you are forced to re-save a copy in a folder then after editing it you need to spend time to fish it out of the folder, reattach it and then forward to others. It is a huge time wasting headache not to mention polluting your system with extra copies of files.
    Thanks

    I believe you are missing something. I'm not on my Mac right now but there should be a setting where to save attachments and also muiltiples at one time.

  • Where are the edited files located in Lightroom?

    I want to be able to use my edited files in InDesign but the only way I know how to do it is to export them to a folder in the finder. This poses a couple of problems. For one it doubles the amount of disk space I use and perhaps more importantly it will not bring the changes I make in Lightroom over to InDesign. Does anyone know where Lightroom saves the edited files after they have been edited in Lightroom?

    I don't know InDesign, so your mileage may possibly vary, but I don't get involved in formal LR exports and imports when editing with other apps.  What I do when I need to use another editing app in addition to LR is right-click the image in LR and select Edit In... and pick the app I want to use.*
    I'm given three choices for the other app:  Edit a Copy With Lightroom Adjustments (the choice you want in your example), Edit Copy (start over, ignoring what I've done in Lightroom), Edit Original (ditto, but BZZT! not a great idea, to me at least).
    The file opens in the other app (and also in Lightroom, as a copy) in the default file format that app is set to use, such as .tif, assumed here.  I make the edits I want there, and then I Save the image again within that app.  That saves the app-edited .tif copy back to the Windows folder being used by Lightroom for the imported .dng Lightroom image files. Note also that there is now a second copy of the image that appears in the Lightroom filmstrip, adjacent to the right side of the .dng image, that is the .tif file and reflects all the edits in the other app. I can make further edits within Lightroom to the .tif (or to the .dng file without the app edits), but in the .tif file, I now can't undo any changes made before I saved in the other app.  Those edits, including the Lightroom edits before opening in the other app, have now become destructive edits in that .tif file.  (This is why I recommend working with a copy, not the original.)  If I need to undo something LR did before I went to the other app, I delete the .tif file and start over with the .dng.
    When I'm done editing from LR (I let LR manage the final edited copy), I can Export that .tif file with any additional edits LR made, Print from within LR, etc.
    *If you can't see the app you want to use when you select Edit In, go in LR to Edit>Preferences>External Editing tab, and under Additional External Editor, click the Choose button and navigate to the .exe file for the app you want to use.  You also set the file format and other preferences there. Save your new preference with the OK button, and right-clicking will bring the other app up in LR as an Edit In option.

  • Edit files on a server with dreamweaver CS5

    I am having a problem editing files directly from a ftp server. I just updated to Cs5 from Cs3 and seem to of lost the ability to edit and change files on a live server. I understand that I can download an entire site, but with the amount of sites that I maintain this is not doable storage wise. I am assuming there is a way to bypass the local/remote server sync, but have yet  to figure it out. I have search the forums and support FAQs but alas found nothing.
    Thanks in advance for your time

    Hi Nate,
    in these cases I'm not a friend of a detailed troubleshooting. It is one of the reasons that I prefer an external FTP program. The difficulties with which you have to fight encourage me in this opinion, not least because we always search for experts, we don't charge a "jack of all trades".
    For this reason, to manage, for example, several websites or to upload my files and sometimes for the opposite way, for a necessary download from my server or to use a "a site-wide synch", I'm using FileZilla. It simply looks easier for me to keep track of all operations precisely and generate or reflect easily the desired tree structure.
    Above all, FileZilla has a feature (translation from my German FileZilla) called "compare file list". Here it's possible to use file size or modification time as a criterion. There is also the possibility to "hide identical files", so that only these files which you want to redact remain visible.
    And even if it means you have to install a new program, I am convinced that there is an advantage. Here is the link to get it and where you can read informations about how it works:
    http://filezilla-project.org/ and
    http://wiki.filezilla-project.org/Tutorial#Using_the_site_manager
    Mac: Mac OS X
    http://filezilla-project.org/download.php
    Of course, you also need all the access data to reach your server.
    Good luck

  • When filtering by keyword and using "Edit In" with Photoshop, edited file does not show up in list

    When I do an "edit in" using CS5 and save it, the edited file does not show up in my LR4 preview window.
    Message title was edited by: Brett N

    There are two distinct modes by which Edit In... may first open an image into PS: as a fully pre-converted rendered file; or as an on-the-fly converted image in memory.
    (When LR opens a PS-edited image a second time into PS, using "Edit Original", the former option is always used.)
    In the latter case, it is ACR which does this on-the-fly conversion, working from the original image (as imported into LR) plus your subsequent LR adjustment metadata. This means ACR compatibility with LR becomes an issue - as it is not, with the pre-rendered file option.
    There is a useful clue to which mode is being used:
    the title of the PS document window, in the case of the on-the-fly conversion, still shows the name of the Raw file (or whatever) that you started with in LR... no file has been saved as yet, to say any different. You can Save or Save as, wherever and under whatever name, and from now on LR will look there for your edited image. Or if you close unsaved, LR has no edited image to show at all.
    the title of the PS document window in the pre-rendered case, is the name of a file already saved on disk and already showing in LR. If you then saved this elsewhere, you would merely make a duplicate which LR cannot know about - and if this duplicate is the one which contains your PS work, LR will accordingly not show that. It is busy showing the content of the specific file that was passed to PS.
    So, if inside CS5 your document is called something like IMG23334.dng - you can save it wherever you like. If inside CS5 your document is called something like IMG23334-edit.tif - you will have to save your changes back to that exact same file, in order for them to be seen in LR.
