From FCP to Photoshop CS3 Ext. and back

I want to use an adjustment layer in PS on a clip from my timeline. What's the best way to get it out of FC in a useable form, then pop it back in when done?
Thanks!

For output, I would spit out a reference movie. PS seems to open them fine. That way there is no extra compression going out. So, in FCP, go to File > Export > Quicktime Movie. In the resulting pop-up window, make sure "Make Movie Self-Contained" is not checked. Now you have a reference to your original media without transcoding and taking a quality hit. PS should open this movie up fine - does for me, using a ProRes HQ reference movie.
Then, coming back out of PS, I'd just use the setting that matches the destination sequence in FCP.

I synced my iPhone with iTunes, and it deleted all my music on my computer and my iPhone except for what I'd purchased using the iPhone. The rest of my music is still on my iPad, so how do I get it from my iPad to the computer, and back on my phone?

The rest of my music is still on my iPad, so how do I get it from my iPad to the computer, and back on my phone? All my music is sitting there safely on my iPad, but whenever I try to sync it with my computer the only option I get is to wipe the iPad and replace it with the files on the computer---which is only a fraction of what I had originally. How do I fix this?? It even deleted my playlists, and I now only have some 200 songs left out of what used to be over 1000!

It can not do that all by itself.
When you plugged it in, iTunes said 'Oh goody! You got a new phone! Would you like to make it just like your old phone?'...
You explicitly said 'Yes'.
You can't undo that.
No backup of the current state of the new phone was made. It was wiped and the last backup of your old phone was restored to it.
Anything you had on the new phone is gone.

Access 2010 on 64 Bit Windows 7 Access "Not Responding" when changing from forms view to design view and back

I am running
Windows 7 64 bit
Access 2010 32 bit
Developing an application with a split FE BE with both files local but continue to have the message "Not Responding" when switching from forms view to design view and back as well as if I try to connect to a subform or object on the sub form.

I have seen this behavior when the form's RecordSource is a complex query such as a crosstab or a query with several nested queries. To test if this is your case, remove the RecordSource and see if the form starts acting normal again.
Then again, if the form has several subforms they might be slowing up the loading time.

Flash 10 stops OnOne Software Plugin Photoframe 4 from installing in Photoshop CS3

I just went thru a hard drive crash. Just before that I purchased the OnOne Software Plugin PhotoFrame 4 Professional and installed it into my Photoshop CS3 and it worked fine.
After the crash I had to have my corrupted raid drives (due to the controller going out) removed, and an IDE drive installed for the operating system. The operating system was installed to the latest patch of Windows XP, SP3. Adobe Flash 10 was also installed. After I got the computer back from the shop and began reinstalling my software, and installed Photoshop CS3 and the PhotoFrame plugin, the plugin shows on a OneSoft pull down menu, but is grayed out. After researching the problem, it looks like the problem is Adobe Flash 10. I would like to go back to Flash 9, and tried downloading it from the Adobe site, but it is confusing with all the files you get and I'm afraid to install one, not knowing for sure which one would be the correct one. Is there any place where I can just simply download Flash 9 like it used to be on the Adobe site, as I am pretty sure that will fix my problem.

Hi Guys,
Ive got the same problems as you, Win XP SP2 on RAID 1 hard disk set on an AMD raid controller, but I have no driver to roll-back to.
Ive installed Photoshop CS3 and also Acrobat Standard 8 (which used to run fine on an old system), but all i get now is the blank window with the menu and title bar and thats all.
Can some one help? (will this licensing patch resolve the issue - and where can i get it from?)
Thanks

Sending from LR4 to Photoshop CS3?

Anyone have an idea how to get these two to work together? The help file specifically mentions CS3 working with it and even mentions that CS3 will use ACR 4.6. When I tell LR4 to open a RAW file produced by my Canon XSi in Photoshop, I get a message that "this version of LR may require camera raw 7.0 for full compatibility". Then I can choose "render using lightroom", "open anyway", or "cancel". If I choose "open anyway" it opens up Photoshop but nothing else happens. Eventually after a few minutes LR4 starts telling me it couldn't open Photoshop (even though it "magically" opened it a few minutes earlier) and when I click off that error, it comes up again, then a new error saying it couldn't send the file to Photoshop. After clicking away that message it then proceeds to make a copy of the file as a .psd (which I did set up in the LR4 preferences for external editor) and it opens up. This is really confusing since as I said the Help file for LR4 says the following.......
In the Library module or Develop module, select the photo you want to edit. Then, choose Photo > Edit In Adobe Photoshop.
If you’re opening a camera raw or DNG file in Photoshop CS3 (10.0.1) or later, it opens directly.

Thanks Hal. I guess the confusing part is I thought it was going to just automatically create the PSD file and send it over so I was really confused on why I was even getting a dialog in the first place.
I might just have to jump to PS Elements 10 or something if I want more compatibility later on. I can't just update my CS3 version of photoshop because it's part of the Web Suite that I bought for dirt cheap while in school and that means I have to update to suite at about $900 or just flat out buy Photoshop on its own for $700. I guess with Elements getting layers from what I saw, it might be a good choice for me.

Photoshop CS3 Book and Tutorial Recommendations

Hi there,
I am a beginner CS3 user. My main interest is in enhancing old graphic prints (not digital photography). By enhancing I mean changing colors, brightness, contrast, and sometimes redrawing a section of the original print. I typically scan the prints and save the images as tiff files that I then open in CS3. I'm running OSX 10.4.11.
There are numerous books on Photoshop CS3 on Amazon, but I am finding it difficult to make a choice. I would like book and tutorial recommendations from the Photoshop user forum community.
Thanks!
Al

I'll suggest a different tack altogether. As I'm a visually oriented, I find that being shown is far more effective than reading about things. Parsing intellectual abstractions (language) rather than dealing directly with the subject through imagery always seems like an extra labor... at least at the beginning until I have enough of a syntax built to enable contextual relevance.
With that preface I'd suggest you look at Deke McClelland's video tutorials now available online from Lynda.com. Start with "Photoshop CS3 One-on-One: The Essentials' followed by "Photoshop CS3 One-on-One: Beyond the Basics" and "Photoshop CS3 One-on-One: Advanced Techniques." After Deke's tutorials you will be prepared to dive into any of the many others Photoshop CS3 authors available on Lynda.com.
http://movielibrary.lynda.com/authors/author/?aid=98
When I first started Photoshop, it was so dense and alien that, even with several books to help, I considered myself only a beginner even after a year or so of intense struggle. Then I ran into Deke's training and felt that I made a huge jump in comprehension and skill set in a very short time. I would watch the training and during the first go would do the examples. After once through I would work with PS for a bit to let the training sink in and then watch once more followed by more work. After the third viewing, I'd absorbed almost all I was going to and Deke's jokes were old so it was time to move on.
The training on Lynda.com is very reasonably priced for the value of the training and I would suggest Deke's tutorials to any beginner as a more effective way to start than books.

Exporting from Aperture to Photoshop CS3- file format

If I have my files in raw CR2 format in Aperture 2.1 and I then go to the edit the image in photoshop CS3 will it remain in the raw CR2 format or does it convert it to a tiff file automatically?
Currently I have PS CS2 and it converts to a tiff file when I go edit in photoshop however I thought this may be beacuse PS CS2 does not support raw files from my Canon 40D, PS CS3 does though.
Incidently the same thing happens when I use the dodge and burn tool in Aperture 2, it conversts to Tiff format.

"Will there ever" is a loaded question Apple rarely comments on future product releases, and anyone that would know wouldn't be able to comment.
So it's not possible to say if future dodge & burn (or other plugins) can work without rendering a TIFF file.
As far as "multiple file formats" though -- it shouldn't really be something you need to worry about (other than the fact that the TIFF takes up some disk space). You can export to JPEG from the original or the version, and Aperture will track the files together.

Photoshop CS3 Save and Save As Dialog box not working

I can't do a "save as" or "save for web" in photoshop cs3. The dialog box opens and I can't change anything but the file type pull down menu (and sometimes not even that). This problem happens sporadically.... but most of the time it doesn't work.
I have re-installed Photoshop cs3 but I still have the same problem.
Photoshop CS3 10.0.1
MacPro 2 x 3 GHz Quad-Core Intel Xeon
Memory : 4GB
Mac OS 10.5.8
Please Help

I'm seeing exactly this same problem with Photoshop CS3 after the upgrade to 10.5.8. It appears that the dialog box never gets focus for "Save for Web and Devices" -- the title bar of the dialog is grayed out, while the main "Save for Web and Devices" panel still has focus. That means there's no way to clear the dialog, since the panel is waiting for it to return, but the dialog can't get any input. None of the standard resets work for any length of time. I seem to remember similar problems in a much earlier release of Mac OS X, but I can't be sure. Quite annoying.

Burning a DVD from FCP Pro (relation between QT and IDVD)

When encoding and burning a DVD with IDVD from a QTime file (exported from Final Cut Pro plain QT uncompressed export), do I need to pay attention to the QuickTime Player settings? For example, the codec is automatically set on H.264, does it make any difference on the IDVD encoding process to choose another codec or to check the box : best quality? Thank you for your answer, BF from FCP Pro

DVDs use an MPEG-2 codec, so regardless of which codec FCP uses to compress the Quicktime file, it will end up as MPEG-2 when you burn to DVD. So as long as the video preview plays in iDVD, you should be fine just using the "Best Quality" setting.
If you are really concerned about the quality, you can also try exporting the video using Compressor and authoring the DVD in DVD Studio Pro. It's a bit more complicated, but the results are worth learning the software.
Hope this helps.

Mac Pro, Leopard 10.5.2, Photoshop CS3, 8800GT and Dual Monitors - Crashing

Hi, I received my Mac Pro (with Nvidia 8800GT) earlier this week and set it up with my dual monitors. I soon discovered that Photoshop CS3 crashes when scrolling a 'zoomed in' image with dual monitors. Photoshop is setup so that all palettes are on the smaller samsung monitor and the main image window I'm working on is on the 23" cinema display.
I've updated both the OS and CS3 but cannot solve the problem unless I switch to a single view setup, ie, drag all the palettes over to the larger monitor so that photoshop is no longer dual monitor. Then it works fine. Although it's a workaround, it's not an ideal situation. Has anyone else found this to be an issue? Have you found a solution?
I've also re-installed Photoshop, visited a genius bar and changed mice!
Thanks, any help would be appreciated.

My Mac Pro had been running 3 Dell monitors on two NVIDIA GeForce 7300 GT cards for months, and with the (I think) Safari update all of a sudden the Mac freezes, 1 monitor displays garbledy gook, and the other is blank with a blinking power light. That is, until yesterday when the power light refused to come on. So I says to myself, "Self, how about testing them on my iBook?" The 1704FPT will not power on, plugged in to a computer or not. The 1707FP shakes like crazy when starting up on the iBook, then settles in and seems to work. Meanwhile, the SP2008WFP is working alone on the Mac Pro, but not totally trouble-free. What the heck is going on?

Photoshop CS3 crashing and installation getting 'stuck'

Last week Photoshop CS3 started crashing when trying to select a new file to open.
This didn't seem related to any particulr file and appeared to be random.
Error message was "an unrecoverable problem has occurred, Photoshop will now quit"
Actully it didn't quit and had to be force quit.
This was happenning sporadically, but today it happened every time I tried to open any image file.
Thinking it was a good idea to re-install, I tried that but the installation got 'stuck' and couldn't be completed.
A few minutes into the installation, prompts appeared asking for the CS4 Flash disk [which we bought seperately]
and then asked for the CS3 Application disk again. That disk was put in the drive and a minute or so later it asks for the CS3 Application disk.
Which is the disk it already has...
Has anyone else had this odd situation and found a solution?
Any thoughts appreciated!

Try resetting your preferences as described in the FAQ.
http://forums.adobe.com/thread/375776?tstart=0
You either have to physically delete (or rename) the preference files or, if using the Alt, Ctrl, and Shift method, be sure that you get a confirmation dialog.
This resets all settings in Photoshop to factory defaults.
A complete uninstall/re-install will not affect the preferences and a corrupt file there may be causing the problem.

Problems with editing images from Lightroom to Photoshop CS3

I just installed Lightroom onto my new MacBook Pro and just installed a new version of Photoshop CS3. When I hit the "Edit image in Photoshop CS3" button in Lightroom it won't open Photoshop and therefore won't let me edit the image in CS3. Does anyone know what might be wrong? Any info would be helpful.

I'm running Lightroom and Photoshop CS3. "Edit image in Photoshop CS3" works fine for me. I'm on an iMac and had Lightroom installed first, only thing I noticed is it takes PS a little longer to open up.
