GIF/JPEG Images Always Open As "Locked"

Hey,
When I open up my images of JPEG/GIFs as "Locked". PNG image types are fine and aren't locked on opening but I really don't know why my JPEG and GIF's are always locked.
I can fix it by just duplicating it on the JPEG files, allowing me to make changes to my image but on GIFs it wont even let me duplicate.
Anyone know what is going wrong?

I think what your seeing is normal for file formats that don't support layers.
For jpegs, just double clicking on the background layer thumbnail in the
layers panel and clicking ok in dialog that appears should unlock the layer.
Instead of doing that, i usually drag the background layer to the new layer icon
at the bottom of the layers panel. This creates a background copy that you
can work on and should be unlocked.
Your gifs are probably in the Index color mode (says Index beside the layer thumbnail)
To unlock gifs go to Image>Mode>RGB.

Check your userid autorecovery folder after you close Photoshop. If there are psb files in it delete them

CS5; Image always opens on last monitor used instead of main monitor

This problem is back. In CS4, when you opened an image it would always open on your main monitor regardless of which monitor you closed your last image. I have three monitors running and this is really annoying. CS4 was the only version I know of that didn't do this. I wish CS5 didn't do this. Dare I wish they would return to way it works in CS4?

Opening a new document on the last used monitor is as designed. When the behavior changed to always use the main monitor in CS4, we got a number of requests to return to the old behavior.
If you have a document open on your main monitor and your secondary monitor and then close the document on the secondary monitor, then a new document will open on the main monitor, so a possible (although not great) work around for you is to have a small "dummy" document open on the main monitor.

Images always open with blank sections.

Hello, I'm running a Windows 7 64 bit system with 6gb of ram. I am using PS CS6. Every time I open an image there are large blank squares in it. I can fill in the squares by clicking in the area using the "Move" tool, I would of course to just have my images open the way they should. I didn't have this issue prior to CS6...any thoughts?

Check the website of the maker of your video card for a display driver update.
If it's an ATI card, seek out the Catalyst 12.2 driver, specifically.
If nVidia, I think the latest release is as good as any.

Hi,
Look at the conversion channel in the Messaging Server Administration Guide. This allows you to replace the MIME contents of messages e.g. replace/remove a gif or other images that you specify.

Inserting gif/jpeg image into excel through POI-HSSF

HI,
I am using jExcel to generate xls file from java. But I have to include image into the excel sheet. but jExcel supports only PNG file format to insert into excel sheet.
what about POI-HSSF? Does it support inserting images into Excel or not. if supports what type of images it will support?
I am in urgent need of it. Help me out in this issue
Thanks

You did not mention which version of POI. Did you verify your
version supports the patriarch.createPicture method? If you are
using a really old version it might not.
> loadPicture("asset/images/logo_e2eA.png",
workSheet))/>
Does the code actually have access to a loadPicture() method
or function? I think loadPicture() is a private method in one of
the example classes: org.apache.poi.hssf.usermodel.examples.*. So
you may have to write your own version of it. Assuming you have not
done so already...

How do I change the JPEG image size in PSE-12 when opening from RAW

Switching from PSE-9 to PSE-12. When a JPEG image is opened RAW in PSE-12 the size is 18.72" Wide x 12.48" high 300 DPI. The same image in PSE-9 is 23.4" wide x 15.6" High 240 DPI. How do I get PSE-12 to open the image as in PSE-9?

Uncheck the boxes at the bottom of the dialog Scale styles and resample Image so that only constrain proportions is checked. If you the change the resolution box from 240 to 300 you will get back to your original dimensions.
This is a meaningless thing to do, you still have the exact same number of pixels, you have only changed the metadata number in the file for ppi, and your prints are not affected by this number.
You could also use the same method to change the dimensions to 6 x 4 or 9 x 6 etc.
There are some cases (actually most cases) where you need to CROP the photo to change the dimensions, when the aspect ratio of the original photos is different than the aspect ratio of the final photo; the specific case in 99jon's example is the only case you ever want to change dimensions using Image->Resize->Image Size, where the aspect ratio doesn't change from 6x4 to 9x6 (or 12x8 or 18x12 or ...), and even then, you could do the same thing simply by telling the printer the size you want, you don't really need to do anything in PSE.

Cannot Open a JPEG image as a Camera Raw file in Elements 5.0

I tried opening a JPEG image, using "Open As" function into Camera Raw in Elements 5.0 Editor and I receive a "program error" message. How can I change settings or otherwise enable Elements 5.0 to open a JPEG into Camera Raw?

The latest version of ACR which is compatibe with Elements 5 is ACR4.6. You can download it fromhttp://www.adobe.com/support/downloads/thankyou.jsp?ftpID=4034&fileID=3758
I think the Adobe site says 4.5 was the last forElements 5, but I know 4.6 works. ACR5 needs Elements 7(or possibly 6). Good luck

Photoshop blurs image when opening jpeg from Nikon

Hi
My photoshop in CS6 blurs an image when opening a Jpeg this only happens on my own devices, so for example if the photo is taken on nikon DSLR, ipad or iphone. any other image, i.e. stock and downloaded and its fine.
I just cant figure out what the problem is, but essentially all my photos are uneditable because of the blurring. can any help?
Many thanks

If OpenGL drawing is disabled, then the video driver isn't too likely. Most of the problems in drivers show up with OpenGL drawing enabled.
But printer drivers and fonts can sometimes cause issues.
And there's always a chance that the video driver is failing at something simple (like drawing a menu or cursor).

Can't open jpeg image

I'm using Adobe photoshop 7.0 and usually when I open a jpeg image it just opens but some jpeg images don't open properly. There is this jpeg image that when I try to open it it either displays an error message that it's not the right kind of file or brings up a dialog box as if I'm trying to open a new custom blank page and asks me what size, transparency etc. and no matter what I select it always opens a blank page and I could not actually see the image that's supposed to be there. In any other program it will open normally and display as a normal jpeg image in picture viewer or GIMP image editor but oddly won't open in Adobe Photoshop. I tried to open the same file in GIMP image editor and it opens the file but when I try to save the file, strangely it advises me to export the file before saving it. I believe that the jpeg file may have invisible layers that photoshop can't handle but I could not get rid of the layers properly. I've tried to flatten the image and export the file to a normal jpeg file and delete all invisible layers but even after all this, when I save it as a normal jpeg file and open it again in adobe photoshop it still can't open the file. Does anyone know how I can force the program to display the image and or permanently get rid of the weird layers or markers that has been preventing this file from opening in Adobe Photoshop?

Thank you for your assistance Nancy. Your process almost completely worked. The exception is that when I tried to copy the image from an webpage such as Firefox (I do not have internet explorer), it was not getting through to the Adobe Photoshop clipboard and therefore could not be pasted. However, I simply saved the image from a Firefox window as a different file name and that solved the problem. Now the copied image can be opened in Adobe Photoshop. Thank you for your help.
sincerely,
Jon

Unable to Open Lossless JPEG Image

Hi,
I have jdk 1.6.0. and i installed the jai-Imageio pakage.i am not able view the true lossless jpeg
image.
I tried to open a lossless jpeg image from the code given in
http://forums.sun.com/thread.jspa?forumID=20&threadID=335960
but the
image does not open. It works for jpeg, jpeg2000 images. but not
lossless jpeg and jpeg-ls images..
when i try to code
String s[] = ImageIO.getReaderFormatNames();
for(int i=0;i< s.length ;i++)
System.out.println(s);
it prints

if i try to load lossless jpeg image it shows the exception that
but when i write code like
CLibJPEGImageReaderSpi cl = new CLibJPEGImageReaderSpi();
String s[] = cl.getFormatNames();
for(int i=0;i< s.length ;i++)
System.out.println(s[i]);
it prints

if i check with 'cl.canDecodeInput(imageInputStream)' it returns true.
i d't now how to load the image using 'CLibJPEGImageReaderSpi' class object
or is there any other way to load the image ?
can anybody write the full code to display the true lossless jpeg image
which is taken from dicom medical images. the images are available at
http://rapidshare.com/files/250911269/Lossless_jpeg.zip.html
is there any website has good tutorial about lossless jpeg image. what
is point transform in lossless jpeg ? what old pseudo lossless jpeg ?
what is equivalent for that in java ?

There are two images in that zip file. I have no problems reading the one called "lossless.jpg". It's a 16-bit grayscale image that's completely black. The one called "test.jpg" throws an exception. Is this what you're getting? I'm using JAI-ImageIO 1.1
is there any website has good tutorial about lossless jpeg image. what
is point transform in lossless jpeg ? what old pseudo lossless jpeg ?
what is equivalent for that in java ? In addition to describing normal jpeg encoding, the jpeg specification also describes what's called "lossless jpeg" encoding. Lossless jpegs - as described in the original specification - are obsolete. No common application can open them. It doesn't help that the png format (also lossless) provides much smaller file sizes then lossless jpeg's.
Both of the jpegs in that zip file are lossless jpegs. Incidently, I can't open them up with Irfanview or Adobe Photoshop CS4 (wich says alot). And I can only read "lossless.jpg" with JAI-ImageIO while the other one throws an IOException. By using lossless jpegs, the user cripples portability.
JPEG-LS is different from lossless jpeg. In fact, it was meant to replace lossless jpegs. While not actually lossless, jpeg-ls is described as a "near lossless" compression. I believe the files have a +.jls+ extension instead of a +.jpg+ one. While not obsolete (I think), JPEG-LS is not widely used. Using it can still cripple portability.
The JPEG2000 format also has a "lossless" mode, that again, is not widely used. Using it can still cripple portability. JPEG2000 files have a +.jp2+ extension.
Lastly, I don't know what you mean by this question
what is point transform in lossless jpeg?PS: I have no problems reading a lossless jpeg or a jpeg-ls that I write with JAI-ImageIO. So maybe there's something wrong with "test.jpg" in the zip file?

How to save applet in image(gif/jpeg) format

Hi there !
how to save applet in image (gif/jpeg) format. i have just gone through JIMI package where serilization is there ,WHERE U CAN SORE in image format ...........can anybudy help me out.........if possible then pleeez provide me some example.
Thanks in advan...........

I think that is possible because i have seen some commercial applets that do that.
-http://www.izhuk.com/painter/
-http://www.lawrencegoetz.com/programs/signature/
Thses two saves the image in the server since applets cant write in the host they are running. Maybe it would be possible whit JFS, i don't know.
For now I am trying to store an image draw in the applet on my server.
My idea now is copying the image to a buffer or something, open a connection to the server and receive the image with a perl CGI.
There is an example with text:
-http://java.sun.com/docs/books/tutorial/networking/urls/readingWriting.html
I want to do something similar but with an image.

Why when I double click an image in "pictures" does it always open into Elements 10 ?

Why when I double click an image in "pictures" does it always open into Elements 10?

Only if you set Elements as the default application e.g. for opening all jpeg files.
You can make file associations via the control panel.

How combine a jpeg image & animated gif image & save it as GIF ?

i have an jpeg image, & also aminated gif image, how do i place the animated gif image over (in the center of the image) a jpeg image & save it as gif file ??

First thing you need to do is stop thinking in terms of file formats once the files are in photoshop they are all the same. The exception being vector vs raster. But in this instance the process is rteally the same so 6 on one hand a half a dozen on the other. Or as some would say Tomatoe, tomahtoe(mispelled on purpose).
The jpeg I would assume is the background image and the gif image is the fore ground object. Open the jpeg, and then place the gif file. As long as the fore ground object has transparency, your job is pretty much done. If not, then it will be up to you to mask what you want to keep vs what you don't and apply that selection to the foregrounds layer as a mask.
Google the net or skim the users manual for the keywords - mask, selections, quickmask, pen tool, paths. Each of these can in one way or another take care of your issue.
It would be worth your time to also go through the numerous videos about photoshop and see how its done.
Either go to adobe tv,
Itunes podcasts
or one of the following web sites:
