Exported files from mac not recognised in windows

I am finding that files saved as either .PSD and .JPEG on my Mac PSE9 won't open in CS4 on Windows. CS4 says it does not recognise the file.
I recently upgraded to Lion and I did not have the problem before then.
Anybody else have this problem?

Apple no longer includes Rosetta with OS X Lion - drivers, plug-ins, requiring Rosetta will not work.
You could stay with Snow Leopard, or update the software/drivers, to make them run on OS X 10.6.7

CS5 Indesign file from mac not opening on a pc

Greetings, I have an Indesign CS5 file from mac that i can't open on a pc. I made a package on my mac first, and then send it through wetransfer to my email. when i open it on the pc with a same version it says i need to upgrade my version first, which i already did and still didn't work. Could somebody help me please?

What version do you have on the PC? CS5 files should open in CS5, CS5.5 and CS6. Perhaps the file is really a CS5.5 or CS6 file? You can find out using Jongware's script at Adobe Forums: [Ann] Identify Your InDesign File

Files to memory stick from mac not compatible with windows?

Before I installed leopard I was easily able to copy photos, files and other docs to my memory card sticks and have them read on windows no problem but not now with leopard.
What should I do? What's the best format to format the card so that windows users can read my files or that I can transfer my files to a HD from my mac and copy to windows.
thanks

Well...it seems like my perfectly good 2GB card crashed on me. Your right, it doesn't work on any computer and it even failed the format option in windows.

XMP Files from MAC Not Reading On PC

My question is two-fold, so I apologize that this is long, but it will be best with the backstory:
I shoot Raw on a Canon 5DMIII and import my images into Lr5 on my PC as CR2 files. I am beginning to work with an editor for the post production of my images and upload my files to her via Dropbox. In effort to keep the files as small as possible (and upload/download times shorter), I export my images as DNGs. Specifically, I ensure the 'Use Lossy Compression' option is checked and the 'Embed Original Raw File' is unchecked. I then resize the image to 2000 pixels on the Long Edge and the overall file is under 1MB.
She then imports the DNG files into her iMac for editing also in Lr5. Prior to my exporting, I will edit a few images as sneak peeks for my clients, flag them as a 'pick' and code them as 'red'. When she imports my DNGs, she can see the 'red', but she cannot see the flagged images. Fine, this is something I can live without. She does her editing, also flagging them as a pick and coding them red. She then exports as the original file.
She then uses ExifTool, opens the terminal application and write in: "exiftool -xmp -b -w xmp -r", drags in the DNG files and exports the XMPs. She then sends the XMP files back to me, I place them into my folder with my original RAW files, tell my PC to 'replace' the XMP files that are already in the folder. Then in Lr5, I highlight all my files and select 'Read Metadata From File'.
Now, initially, nothing happens. I am unable to see any images flagged or coded red. However, I do see the 'attention' icon (I'm sure that is not the right name for it) on the upper right corner of the images she has edited when in the library module. If I click on it, it tells me that the MetaData has conflicting information and do I want the file or catalog to be primary. I click on the 'file' option and only then do I see her edits, including the 'red' coding (but not flagged as 'pick').
Part 1 Questions: Why when I am instructing it to 'Read the MetaData From File' is it not automatically picking up her edits? Am I doing something incorrectly when I put the XMPs back in the original folder with the RAW images and have the XMPs replace the originals? Is it normal for the 'pick' flags to not transfer?
Part 2 Questions: When she edits my images, she creates a virtual copy and creates one color and one b+w of each image for my clients. As such, she sends me back two XMP files for one image. How do I get these 2nd XMPs to map to the virtual copy within my library, as I am only creating the virtual copy of an image once I know it is one she selected for the final gallery. If I create a virtual copy of an image she edited after-the-fact, the b+w XMP cannot locate it.
Any guidance is appreciated! Thank you!

I never tried this, but I'm pretty sure that with DNG files, Lightroom will ignore xmp files, even when you instruct Lightroom to "Read Metadata from File". Lightroom expects all the metadata to be in the DNG file, not in the xmp file.
Pick flags, as far as I know, are never written to xmp file; nor are they written to DNG files.
If you're going to make this transfer procedure work, you need to do it by either (a) embedding the metadata in the DNG file and send those back and forth; or (b) use RAW and xmp and then sending the xmp files back and forth (plus I guess you have to transfer the original RAW once to your editor)

Music File problems MAC not recognising them

I have recently just bought a Macbook and transferred music files from my PC to the MAC.
I seem to be having a problem with the Macbook recognising certain files as music as its currently just showing an image, without the additional duration info, etc..
Has anyone else experienced this?
Or have any advice as to what the problem could be?
Thanks,
Chris

Okay. Try this: Find one of the problematic songs in Finder (It should be in your home folder under Music>iTunes>iTunes Music, which is organized by artist name, then album. Once you've found one of the songs, right-click (control+click) on it, choose *Open With* and pick QuickTime. Does that work?
Are the songs the right file size? (2~3 MB)

Copying data files from Mac to Windows on MacBook running Parallel

How can I copy .doc files from Mac folders to Windows folders?
I am running Parallel but I cannot access the Mac folders and files when I am running Windows.
I cannot access flash drives from Windows either.
Can anyone help?
Thank you

Theres a feature called shared folders that works
quite nicely. I cant quite remember the specifics but
I have done it before. Or if you've got a few small
ones copy and pasting between work spaces now works.
Cheers, Arthur
Now all I need do is figure out how to turn on the sound when using Windows. Everything is as it should be on my Xp setup but no sound. Mac must be controlling this but I do not know where to look to solve this situation.
Have a great week,

Once something similar happened to me. The external drives I had set up for FCP to use for some reason were not mounted, and FCP put all its render files on the main drive and I couldn't find them anywhere.
Go to applications, and control-click (and hold down) on your FCP icon; you should get a pop up menu that says "show package contents". Select that, select the "contents" folder, then the "mac OS" folder. See if your quicktime file is in there, or if you've got render files in the "render" folder or audio render files in the "audio render" folder that don't belong there.
That's where FCP sticks stuff when your documents FCP project folders are not available or when external drives you've selected aren't available.

Premiere Pro CS6 Project Files Not Recognised by Windows

Gidday, I hope someone can help with this problem. Premiere Pro(and After Effects) have worked perfectly on my laptop up until now. Saved PP projects are not recognised by Windows 7. I can open a new project but once I save it, it is not recognised and won't open and I can't reset either as the default programs for those files. The applications are visible in the start menu so it is very strange as all were working fine last week and nothing has been done to the laptop in the meantime.
Anyone else come up against this problem?
Thanks
Steve

Steve, I just had this happen as well.
I used the Programs section of the Windows Control Panel to initiate an uninstall. On Adobe's Unistall setup screen (or whatever it may be called) I selected to uninstall PP only. When it was done I restarted and then installed PP only. And then it was back to "normal."

How can I Sharing Nikon NEF files from Mac to Windows

I want to share Nikon NEF and TIFF files between Mac book pro and Windows 7 computers, is this possible and how can I do it ?

Thanks Shootist007,
I am planning to buy a MacBook Pro, my main computer runs under windows 7.
On both computers Photoshop CS6 installed, so this will do the trick?
Photoworks.
Yes Certainly. PS has been reading Nikon NEF files for YEARS. The only problem you may run into is with the Newest Nikon cameras. That is if you have the newest Nikon. That is until Adobe updates Adobe Camera RAW to support the newer Nikon cameras.

Ipod not recognised by Windows - need urgent help!

Just bought my Ipod Mini. Found out that Ipod is not recognised by Windows because Ipod is configured for Mac...
Restoring to factory settings not possible because Windows does not see the Ipod. What can I do?
laptop Windows XP

First, make sure that the iPod is fully charged.
iPods come pre-formatted for Mac, so you will need to format it for Windows.
See this article to verify its format: How to determine iPod's hard disk format.
Make sure that you have the latest iPod Updater software
- Download the Update Installer to your PC (do not run it from the web site).
- Place the file on the Desktop, or in a Folder you can remember/find.
- You also need to install the Updater software by double-clicking on the file that downloads.
- After you install the Updater to your PC, reboot your computer.
- After rebooting, run the Updater.
--- Go to: Start ==> Programs ==> iPod.
- It should initialize then ask you to connect an iPod.
- Connect the iPod when asked (not before) and you should have two options available: Update or Restore.
--- Choose the Restore option and it will update your iPod's firmware to the latest version and format (erase) your iPod's hard drive.

TS1538 iPhone 5 is not recognised by Windows 7

My iPhone 5 is not recognised by Windows or iTunes at all. It does not appear in Devices & Printers or Device Manager. Nothing happens to Windows when I insert the cable into the USB port. Is it possible that it is a faulty cable, or is there a software issue that I am unaware of?

Syncing with iTunes on a Mac or PC requires:
Mac: OS X v10.6.8 or later
PC: Windows 7; Windows Vista; or Windows XP Home or Professional with Service Pack 3 or later

How do i save files from mac pro to an external hard drive

how do i save files from mac pro to an external hard drive

Your external drive is formatted NTFS which OS X can read from but not write to. You can either install third-party software on the Mac to enable writing to the drive or repartition and reformat the drive for exclusive use with the Mac. If you don't need to move files between a Mac and a PC, then I would recommend the latter solution.
Tuxera NTFS 2012.3.2
NTFS for Mac OS X 9.5.3
To repartition:
Drive Preparation
1. Open Disk Utility in your Utilities folder.
2. After DU loads select the external hard drive (this is the entry with the mfgr.'s ID and size) from the left side list. Click on the Partition tab in the DU main window.
3. Under the Volume Scheme heading set the number of partitions from the drop down menu to one. Click on the Options button, set the partition scheme to GUID then click on the OK button. Set the format type to Mac OS Extended (Journaled.) Click on the Partition button and wait until the process has completed.
4. Select the volume you just created (this is the sub-entry under the drive entry) from the left side list. Click on the Erase tab in the DU main window.
5. Set the format type to Mac OS Extended (Journaled.) Click on the Security button, check the button for Zero Data and click on OK to return to the Erase window.
6. Click on the Erase button. The format process can take up to several hours depending upon the drive size.
