HDR, Photomerge,etc. Problems

Hi:
I have reported sometime earlier that I constantly have crashes if I try to use the Photoshop tools in Bridge, like Merge to HDR, Photomerge or Load into Photoshop Layers.  No solution so far has been suggested and I was wondering if this is basically a RAM issue.  I am currently currently working on a Mac Pro Quad Core, 2.93 GHz, with 8 MB of RAM.  I am willing to upgrade to more RAM if this is the problem.  Can anyone help me with this?
Herman R.

Meredith:
Thanks for being willing to help but since the post you referred to things have happened.  The latest update to Photoshop solved the Content Aware Fill not working in 64 bit and the HDR Merge problem, etc. not working in 64 bit was solved by Chris Cox (Adobe employee) determining it was an OS corruption issue.  I used Font Doctor to isolate them and after their removal everything is now working fine.
Regards,
Herman R.

  • My HDR & Photomerge are broken!

    My HDR & Photomerge are broken!
    Recently the functions for moving multiple images into HDR & Photomerge via Tools and Automate is not working. When I try I get dialog boxs that are incorrect and the software will not allow it.
    I've update, removed added items from Photoshop, have plenty of memory devoted to Photoshop, spent hours working with Adobe tech, now waiting for an answer from them takes 72 hours.
    Has anyone else experienced this and have you found a solution?
    HELP ! PLEASE !

    Adobe CS6 Beta -Crash
    Steps:
    Select 3 images in LR3.6 > Edit in Merge to HDR Pro in Photoshop (CS6)
    In CS6:
    select Preset > Saturated
    Check Remove Ghosts, select EV0 image, and Edge Smoothness
    Click OK
    This works the first time I do an HDR but the second time I do it without closing down CS6 I get this error message:
    I also tried it without using the Edge Smoothness and got the same message.
    Opening files from within CS6 instead of LR3.6 gave the following error the 2nd time I did an HRD:
    I have Vista64, 12GB RAM, a dedicated partition for the scratch file, 97GB free with only 3.6GB used by CS6.

  • PS CS4 Merge to HDR + Photomerge broken Error 48 (Line 44/41)

    Hey there!
    I'm running Photoshop CS 4 on my Mac (OS X - 10.6.5). I tried for the first time to start
    Automate > Merge to HDR and
    Automate > Photomerge
    but all I get are those weird error messages and I cant make anything of them, also couldnt find a helpful thread so I hope
    someone around here can help me out.
    When I click Merge to HDR it says:  "Error 48 File or Folder does not exist - Line: 44 -> $.evalFile(g_StackScriptFolderPath + "CreateImageStack.jsx");
    the photomerge error looks similar: "Error 48 File or Folder does not exist - Line 41 -> $.evalFile(g_StackScriptFolderPath + "CreateImageStack.jsx");
    Any help is appreciated!!!
    thanks!

    Thanks for your reply!
    I only added some brushes to the Presets>Brushes folder but that's the only thing, that cant be the problem, can it?
    Other than that I didnt mess with any other folders.

  • Photomerge Exposure Problem.

    Hi, to take a photo of a room, and the view through its window, and ensure they are both correctly exposed, Im having problems in Photoshop Elements 10. When I press Done to complete the task the colour of the room walls etc all look badly colour smudged. Ive tried several times to no avail.

    I think that bug probably had to do more with some kind of exif data that pse 8 didn't like, as John mentions, rather than the actual file size.
    (they seemed to have fixed that issue in pse 10 from experimenting with the sample images in the link you posted)
    As an experiment i used three 25 mp images (6144x4085 pixel dimensions each image) in pse 8 in both photomerge panorama and photomerge exposure and
    it seemed to work ok, so maybe your either running up against the exif data bug or if your using camera raw images they may be set to output in 16 bits/channel
    which elements doesn't like. Of course ram and the amount of scratch disk you have available can also be factors.

  • Sony HDR-FX7 import problem

    I just got a new Sony HDR-FX7 and when I tyy to import it tells me there is no camera attached. I have been on the phone with Sony for over two hours and they have no idea. I have tried in FCP and imovie with no luck in either program. Everything works fine with my other cameras and other devices. Anybody have this problem or any suggestions on what to do.
    Thanks

    Hey Photos341,
    I am having problems with FX7. I got it a few days ago and I can't capture footage from the tape. I'm able to see the tape BUT I can't capture in HD. Here is my thread, I have not received any solid advice from anyone as to how to solve this. I was at the apple store today and was told that sony was not quite compatable with FCP, but there is a work around and some sort of plug-in is required to get it going.

  • HDR photo importing problem

    I create HDR photos in photmatix pro, I save the images as jpg or tif. I Import the jpg or tif to Iphoto then delete original images as they show in the Iphoto library. Iphoto will not open the imported image, I can click on the thumbnail image but the alert says original image can't be found. What is the problem? Seems ok when I import raw files directly to Iphoto, just when I made an HDR image.

    I can click on the thumbnail image but the alert says original image can't be found.
    Are you running a Managed or a Referenced Library?
    A Managed Library, is the default setting, and iPhoto copies files into the iPhoto Library when Importing. The files are then stored in the Library package
    A Referenced Library is when iPhoto is NOT copying the files into the iPhoto Library when importing because you made a change at iPhoto -> Preferences -> Advanced. (You unchecked the option to copy files into the Library on import) The files are then stored where ever you put them and not in the Library package. In this scenario you are responsible for the File Management. 

  • Elements 8 - Mac OS10.6 Photomerge Panorama Problem

    When I click on the File>New>Photomerge Panorama an error message "JavaScript code was missing" appears.  And Photomerge Panorama will not open.  I have uninstalled and reinstalled PSE8 but the problem persists.

    No.  I did ask Adobe Support and they said it was a problem with the operating system.  Which to me is a dead end.  Hopefully somebody out there can figure out what and where the JavaScript file Elements is looking for and tell the rest of us.
    Sorry for not having an answer.  Good luck on your quest.

  • CS5.1 extended photomerge causing problems with Win 7

    Hi all,
    I just got a new computer and am trying to run my a CS5.1 trail but am running into an issue. Every time I try to run photomerge, I get an immdiate windows error message that says "Adobe Photoshop CS5.1 has stopped working. A Problem caused the program to stop working correctly. Windows will close the program and notify you if a solution is available" The only option it gives me is to close the program. This happens if I run photomerge through bridge or through photoshop. I have no encountered this error elsewhere on photoshop yet, but I have only just installed it. I have reinstalled CS5 three times and tried rebooting windows completely with the recovery disk, but to no avail. I am running Windows 7, Quad core i7 with plenty of ram.
    Any ideas????

    Reinstall CS5 by turning off AV programs(if any).
    Have you seen actual evidence that an installation of Photoshop made with any particular antivirus program in force has been corrupted?
    AV programs might block installations by detecting false positives, but I haven't seen anyone report that AV has corrupted their Photoshop installation, nor have I heard of one interfering with an installation without actually notifying the user, making it obvious what the problem is.
    Advising people to disable their antivirus program is not good practice in general.
    If an antivirus program IS interfering with the normal operation of your computer, it's time to consider getting a better quality antivirus program.

  • Lightroom and CS4 photomerge integration problem

    I've tried using the photomerge integration feature from lightroom 2.0 but seem unable to get it to work when the files to be merged do not reside on the main hard drive.
    Lightroom seems to pass the information to CS4 correctly as I get the initial photomerge dialog in CS4 with the correct list of files. When I click 'OK' nothing happens.
    I've done some experimenting and when the files to be merged are located on the main hard drive, it works fine.
    I don't know if it makes a difference but the files are Canon RAW files.
    Has anyone else seen this problem? Any suggestions on how to fix it aside from moving the files?

    This thread in the Camera Raw Forum may help:

  • LR2 and CS3 Photomerge Integration problem

    Hi...
    I'm trying to use LR2 along with CS3's Photomerge feature.
    In LR2, I select the images I want to merge, right click to get the dropdown window, and then select Edit In > ...
    But most of the choices are grayed out, including "Merge to Panorama in Photoshop"
    Here's a screenshot:

    Thanx a bunch, Jao...
    OK, I'm trying out updating to 10.0.1. But get this when I run the 10.0.1 Updater:
    "An error occured during installation. The Updater is unable to locate the product to be updated."
    It's in the right folder, so there's some other problem apparently.
    So reading a bit on the Adobe site, it says I may have to re-install CS3 if the updater won't work. I deauthorize my copy of CS3, and try and use the Uninstaller program. It complains as well.
    So, I put my original CS3 disk in and the Setup program complains:
    Adobe Photoshop CS3 cannot be installed because it conflicts with: Adobe Photoshop CS3
    I move it to the old one to the trash anyway, knowing that's not the right thing to do.
    Try my CS3 disk again, still complains.
    So... Something seems really hosed here. I can't get rid of my old copy of CS3, in order to resinstall a fesh version...
    Not a great day here!!!

  • HDR Efex Pro2 Problems - crashes regularly in LR4.4

    I have been using HDR Efex Pro2 for a year as a preset in Lightroom 4 with no problem.  Now it crashes all the time.  Could this be because I upgraded Lightroom to 4.4?  Has anyone had this problem or know how I can fix it.  Of course NIK won't call me back.  And Adobe is pointing figures at NIK.

    I'm not sure yet - I send some questions to Adobe and to NikSoftware support.
    I'm still under investigation but I think it is neither LR nor NikSoftware problem. It is just different configuration.
    Now,
    you've upgraded drivers - great.
    But don't change cfg file - it was the NikSoftware suggestion - not mine. Only drivers update. My fault - I've changed this point in a solution.
    Don't worry - just remove this content you've added from cfg file.
    Next step:
    Have you found what version of OpenGL is running in your system (points 3 and 4 in the solution).
    My problem was connected directly with OpenGL version.
    Heckuvaguy1954, Heirloom Bob - can you send me your HDR Efex Pro 2 log file? Maybe I will find some clues there.
    Log file is in the same folder where the config file is.
    File name: HDR Efex Pro 2_log.txt

  • The famous Photomerge Panorama problem is resolved!

    The PSE7 Panorama Error problem that has plagued me and that I've posted about here is now resolved. And this may help others who are still having it.
    I run a program I found a long time ago called CCleaner. I assumed that, whenever I ran it, it cleaned everything bad, including the Registry. My good wife said no, it doesn't, and showed me how to clean the registry. There was a ton of junk in there and out it went. Tried the Panorama and eureka!, it worked.
    CCleaner is a free program.
    Thanks to all who made suggestions.

    Why is Adobe continuing to ignore the many forum threads inquiring about this same problem?  IMO, this issue continuing year-after-year (and version after version) represents irresponsible decision-making on the part of their Change Control Board / maintenance management, for such a fundamental operation as photo-stitching.
    In particular, when the same two images can be merged successfully using any of a number of separate photo-stitch apps from other vendors, yet crashes Adobe Photoshop, then ipso facto, where do YOU think the blame lies?
    In my opinion as a software programmer, an attempt to perform such a basic operation as merging two images, regardless of their size, should NOT cause a frickin' crash.  Programmatically, this speaks to (a) poor memory management, and (b) terrible error-detection/handling/reporting. 
    By several accounts in those forum threads, this problem continues with the latest OS updates, the latest driver updates, the latest Adobe Photoshop updates/versions, more-than-adequate RAM, more-than-adequate disk space, AFTER re-setting the Adobe Photoshop Preferences to defaults, etc., etc., etc.  ...       Crashing Adobe Photoshop is an unacceptable outcome for such a fundamental operation, even if one is working with photos that are truly of larger-than-normal size.  It's COMPLETELY inexcusable when the images in question are of standard sizes produced by current-day camera technology.  The workaround of resizing the original photos is an unacceptable option for someone who is attempting to maximize a print size without resolution loss.

    First off have you been using Driver Cleaner to get rid of all the old bits of drivers? if not go get it read the instructions and use it.  Re-start the driver process again.  The latest ones on the Nvidia site are probably a safe bet at the moment.  So clean your PC with that prog and install new drivers.
    Then do as you say you have done and ensure 'FastWrites' are turned off.  This is most important.  Get 'Riva Tuner' and this will comfirm you have them turned off.  Also get the 'Coolbits' registry tweak.  Run this and it will add overclocking capability to your display properties.  You can adjust both 2D and 3D speeds.  Now what you must ensure is that they are both set at the same speed!  sometimes the 2D comes set lower than the 3D this can cause symptoms like you are having.  Set the 2D to the same speed as the 3D.
    I have an XFX6800 Ultra  in my K8N Neo2 Plat and it works superbly so fingers crossed doing the above will sort it as they are the main probs with the 6800Ultra cards.

  • Fire Wire Audio Devices (M-Audio, MOTU etc) - Problems

    This problem is discussed already. But only in connection with Bootcamp.
    Apparently, there is a problem with the new FW Controllers uses in newer Apple models. Opposed to the traditional Texas Instruments controller, the new one create problems with FW audio devices. There is a big discussion on the RME page on that (without conclusive result, however). But I think the problem is more general and needs to be addressed:
    Here is my problem: New Macbook pro, my M-Audio FW 1814 worked at the beginning )only garage band= with the beta version of the OS X 10. 5 driver, but than failed. Updated driver of m-audio )released end of april, did not help. My apple seems to recognize the external device, the software mixer shows movements, but there is no sound whatsoever coming in or out. Same with MIDI.
    My question: Did apple give any statement on the problem? A lot of customers buy apple for making music, after all.
    Cheers,
    P

    Yes, if you setup an aggregate device in the Audio Midi setup of your Mac combining the two FW devices. Open the Device editor->press "new device"->name it->choose the available devices in the menue below->hit ok/done/"fertig" (in german)->select this new device in Logic preferences as your Audio device

  • Rendering (Ken Burn, Themes, etc) problem cause by QT Quartz Composer?

    Does everyone get this some error in their system log?
    looks like Ken Burn rendering is caused by the following error:
    Quartz Composer QuickTime Component: Error in CompositionMediaHandlerSetHints() at line 1872: Runtime reset failed
    And preview for Themes error:
    iMovie HD[214] * Message from <QCQuickTimePlayer = 0x064F3270 "QuickTimePlayer_2">:
    QTVisualContext creation failed (error -9459)
    Rendering also create the same errors:
    Message from <QCQuickTimePlayer = 0x10A1AF60 "QuickTimePlayer_1">:
    QTVisualContext creation failed (error -9459)
    Quartz Composer QuickTime Component: Error in CompositionMediaHandlerSetHints() at line 1872: Runtime reset failed

    I don't know whether QT 7.5 is your problem. Apple has upgraded that program to 7.5.5, which apparently cured some of the problems with the earlier version.
    Some contributors to this forum have downloaded earlier versions of QT from this website:

    in conjunction with another program called Pacifist.
