Error taking CR2 image to Photoshop CS2

Using LR v1 & WIn XPPro
Am in the develop module, click on Ctrl E, In the pop up the only option I have is Edit a copy with Lightroom adjustments, click on Edit & a 2nd window saying "Lightroom was unable to prepare the selected file < filename> for editing. It will not be opened"
What is causing the issue & how can it be resolved?
Many thanks
Tom

Can you send me the file and I will check it out for you and see if it works for me ??

Lightroom won't open an image in Photoshop CS2

I have Photoshop 1.1 on a PC running Windows XP. I can't open a Lightroom image in Photoshop CS2 through the "photo" menu because the menu selection to open an image in Photoshop is dimmed. Also in "Preferences" in the "external editors" tab it says "Photoshop not found." My Photoshop is on the same drive as Lightroom. Am I wrong in assuming LR should open an image in CS2?
In a related matter I opened a Photoshop customer support case about this, but did not receive a reply. Is this typical of Adobe? Isn't this the kind of question they should answer even without a paid support plan?

Richard,
What I did when faced with a similar situation was to go to Control Panel, and select Add or Remove Programs, then select Uninstall or Change for Adobe Photoshop CS2, then when prompted whether to Uninstall or Repair, choose Repair. This will fixup all the registry entries that appare to be missing from your system.
Works for me at least.

How do I resize an image in Photoshop CS2?

Hi! I'm trying to resize an image in Photoshop Cs2 with OUT making it grainy or blurred. Please help!? I know there's some key you can hold down while dragging with the mouse but eh I forgot it! o_0 please help!

Jody...
If you have a vector version of the logo, the smartest thing is to resize it as vectors to the size you want, and
then
rasterize it.
Case in point:
I was trying to make a 16px × 16px favicon for my blogspot site, and the only way I could get the details to appear nice and clean was to create the entire thing from shape layers, transform them all in one go to fit inside a 16px × 16px box I defined using guidelines, and THEN rasterize it using the Save For Web dialogue.

Why does Aperture crash when importing modified image into Photoshop CS2?

I have been using Aperture 2.1.4 for the past 2 years and really like the interface. But, I've had one nagging problem: I begin by scanning all of my slides with the Nikon Coolscan 4000 and save them as large tiff files @ approx. 55mb each. I then import each slide with a custom color profile into Aperture. I then optimize the image including white balance, levels, and color adjustments. When I want to make additional changes that I'm not able to do in Aperture, I attempt to send the image to Photoshop CS2 for further processing. But, at this point, Aperture crashes. After this, I get a message saying "do you want to re-open Aperture or quit?" Additionally, I often get the message "Aperture has applied new settings. Do want to keep these new settings or use the original settings?" Since I don't know what will happen if I choose "use the new settings," I always select "keep the original settings." And, when I open Aperture again and try, again, to send the image to Photoshop CS2 to edit, Aperture crashes again. Has anyone had the same or similar problem who can give me some ideas of how to solve this issue! Thanks.

Welcome to the forums!
It sounds like there may be a permissions issue between the two apps, Aperture using one and PS another.
1. Are you logged in as an administrator?
You need to be.
2. Where is your library stored, is it in the picture folder of your user directory?
If so moving it in to the general area of your MacHD may help get over some of these issues.
3. Have you run any of the Ap First Aid steps? Have a read of this page;
Ap2
http://support.apple.com/kb/HT2945
Ap3
http://support.apple.com/kb/HT3805
4. Is it possible that the upgrade to Ap3 would get you around the need to jump into PS?
Start with these ones and then come back letting us know how you go.

Opening .CR2 files in Photoshop CS2

I am trying to see if it possible to open .CR2 RAW files in Photoshop CS2, which brings up the message " Could not complete our request because it is not eh right kind of document"
I have tried updating the Raw Plug in line with Adobe's website and putting the .8BI file into File Formats folder, but this does not seem to solve the problem.
Adobe on line chat will not help.
Any advice gratefully received.

It appears support was added for the 40D in ACR 4.2, while CS2 will only support up to ACR 3.7.

Colored lines in images from Photoshop CS2

One of our users is having a problem with colored, horizontal, 1 pixel lines intermittently appearing in photos worked on in Photoshop CS2 (as far as I know he is in Tiger - unable to check presently as I am at home and he is in his home and everybody is off on holidays...). I will ask him about OS etc, but will probably not get an answer immediately.
Does somebody maybe remember what causes this (if the description is enough)? Reminds me of the white lines in images sometimes talked about. But these are colored, horizontal. I did a forum search and a kb search but found nothing.

Also try adding - bad Ram corruption - to your search as these are also symptoms of bad ram
Typical symptoms of bad Ram in Photoshop include rows lines patches of bad pixels on screen that also print (the actual file is being corrupted). If the bad pixel areas are on the monitor, but do not print (the actual file is not corrupted), video card or video-card drivers are prime suspects.
A bad cable, bad card, bad switch, bad/misconfigured router, bad repeater, bad termination, bad wiring, bad hard drive, bad controller, bad connections, bad logic board, bad CPU just about anything between your computer and other computers can also cause these symptoms in Photoshop, said Adobe computer engineer Chris Cox.

VBA code to import scanned images into Photoshop CS2 with TWAIN

Hi,
I have to develop a solution that automates the scanning of an image using the TWAIN driver interface. Once scanned, the image appears as a new document in Photoshop where it will be further processed using VBScript scripts.
The solution so far :
Using the freeware 'EZTW32.dll' (copied into C:\WINDOWS\System\), I am able to open the TWAIN scan dialogue on screen, using the function 'TWAIN_AcquireToClipboard(Me.Hwnd, nPixTypes) from the 'EZTW32' dll.
Once the image is scanned, the TWAIN driver is automatically closed, leaving the scanned image on the Windows clipboard.
I then launch Photoshop CS2 using a shell code :
(It is important that Photoshop runs minimized)
Dim strPathname As String
Dim lngShellReturn As Long
Dim appRef As Object
Dim newDocRef
strPathname = "C:\Program Files\Adobe\Adobe Photoshop CS2\Photoshop.exe"
lngShellReturn = Shell(strPathname, vbMinimizedNoFocus)
Set appRef = CreateObject("Photoshop.Application")
When Photoshop is running, then a new document is created and the scanned image is pasted into the document from the Windows clipboard...
Set newDocRef = Documents.Add(8.268, 11.693, 600, "New Doc")
newDocRef.Paste
OK, this works up to a point. The newly scanned image appears automatically in Photoshop.
The big problem is that when the user makes a change in resolution or draws a selection box in the TWAIN dialog, this data is not recovered from TWAIN, so the image size parameters in the new document cannot be set.
A beter solution would be to write code that emulates the menu commands in Photoshop CS2:
File -> Import -> [Current Scanner]
that launches the TWAIN driver for the current scanner (the code must close TWAIN immediately after scanning). In this case, the resolution and image selection parameters are also imported into the new document.
I am currently refering to the Photoshop CS2 SDK. Do I need to request the Advanced SDK ?
Once beyond this point, then I think I can continue the image processing routines using VBScript as per the SDK.
Any help or other pointers to the TWAIN problem would be VERY APPRECIATED !
Lars

PLEASE IGNORE MY PREVIOUS POST !
I have now fully resolved the TWAIN problem. It works perfectly and is very robust. I am now continuing with the batch image processing for the newly scanned images using the Photoshop CS2 SDK scripting documents, that I find very detailed, well written, and VERY helpful :)
Peace and love,
Lars

How do I straighten images using Photoshop CS2?

Can someone please tell me how I straighten images like horizons and buildings using Photoshop CS2?
I run the software under Windows XP
Thank you.

What I do is press Ctrl-T which activates Free Transform. I press Ctrl-" which turns on the grid. I can then rotate the file to correct a drooping horizon, or I can Right-Click on the image to activate the contextual menu, and select Skew. In that mode, I can grab a corner and drag it up or down, right or left, to shift or tilt the image.
Another way to level horizons is to use the Measure tool and from the menu, <Image>, <Rotate Canvas>, <Arbitrary>. You use the Measure tool to draw a line from one part of the horizon to another. When you click Arbitrary you'll get a little dialog. Click <OK> and the image rotates. You'll need to deal with cropping next since your image no longer fills the corners.

Aperture exported images disable Photoshop CS2 Variations command

Your comments and help please:
From Aperture, I choose a file to modify in Photoshop CS2. I Export the file to Photoshop. Photoshop opens with the image exported. Unfortunately, the Variations command is grayed-out. I tried TIFF and PSD exports from Aperture. Variations, of course, works when I open the same image from the Finder. Has anyone else had this problem? Thanks for your help, Nate

I'm fairly sure that the Variations adjustment doens't work with 16-bit images - when you use 'open in an external editor' Aperture passes a 16-bit file to that editor.

Can't open Cannon CR2 Raw image in Photoshop CS2

I've tried everything I can think of.
I downloaded/installed Camera_Raw_5.2 and still can't open any of the 2 DVDs full of images.
I'm not the best with the technical side of Adobe Products. Can anyone guide me a bit?

No, not in the application plug-ins folder. It goes in the File Formats folder, starting the path in your Root Level LIBRARY folder.
 
 

There are explicit, straight and strict instructions on the download page. Follow them to the letter.

 If still in doubt, post over there and we'll pick it up there.
 
 You should have only ONE copy of the ACR plug-in, so you have to delete the old one that resides there AND any others you may have put there, such as the incompatible ACR 5.2 you mentioned early.
 
 c This screen shot shows the path for both CS2 and CS3.
 c The red arrows go all the way to the folder for CS3, but you can see the CS2 folder right above that, so you'll be able to figure it out.

Having problems opening images in photoshop cs2

Hi all. Im on a mac using cs2.(yes i will upgrade at some point) Anyways, Ive downloaded some photos from Stockexchange.com and have never had any problems opening up the files until now. It seems like Photoshop doesnt like them anymore. Ive done all the latest updates but it doent seem to work. I am on a mbp with 10.4.11. Any help would be appreciated as I cannot upgrade to cs4 until after the summer and all the OT shifts that come with it
chris

Ignoring the spam.............
What exactly is happening when you say you there are problems in opening images?
Have you tried cntrl + click on the the photo icon and then checking the options on "Open with..."
When you download the images do they have any kind of suffix eg .jpg or .tiff etc?

Cant open cr2 files in photoshop cs2 or cs3

Is there any faster way to open cr2 raw files from my canon g11 camera in photoshop, the dng converter I downloaded takes way to long. Any help appreciated. Thanks.
Brooklyn Photographer

Probably not. Sounds like you are not able to use hardware acceleration because your system isn't up to it and thus any alternatives would probably suffer the same limitation and feel just as slow....

Can't import CR2 images into PHotoshop Elements 9

Please could someone help me with importing CR images from my Canon S120 camera...it just says doesn't recognise file type?

You need camera raw 8.3 for your camera. It is only compatible with PSE12 or PSE13. Alternatively, download and install the free Adobe DNG converter to convert your raw files to the Adobe universal Raw format and the files will open in all versions of PSE (keep your originals as backups and for use in the camera manufactures software)
Windows download (.exe file) click here DNG Converter 8.3
Mac download (.dmg file) click here DNG Converter 8.3
You can convert a whole folder of raw images in one click. See this quick video tutorial:

Opening Nikon NEF Raw images in photoshop CS2

I have installed the camera raw and when I try to open a raw file, it tells me that it cannot open the document because it is not the right kind of document. What do I need to do?

Make sure you have the correct version of ACR (or the DNG converter*) for your model of camera.
See http://kb2.adobe.com/cps/407/kb407111.html
* you need this if the ACR version required for your camera is later than the last one that worked with CS2 (which was 3.x).

Open Image Size 50% instead of 33% Photoshop CS2

When I open images in Photoshop CS2 they open at 33%. As I have a 19" screen and edit 100's of images a day I would like to change the "default" to open the images at 50% instead. Occasionally they open at 50% automatically but I don't know what I've done to make it happen. Can anyone help?

Ok, this is what you need to do.
1. Create a new action and when you are recording that action go to the
flyout menu for the actions palette and choose insert menu item. Then go to
the view menu and choose actual pixels. Stop recording. Basically you just
created an action that zooms your image to 100%.
2. Go to the file menu and choose Scripts and then Scripts Event Manager.
Choose the option to have the action start when you open a document, then
choose your action set and then the action you just made to zoom the
document to 100%, click on the add button.
Now anytime you load a new document it will zoom to 100%.
