Help importing .psd's

i watched one of the adobe.tv tutorials on importing photoshop documents into premiere pro but when i tried it myself it says that the file type isn't supported. i made sure the .psd was RGB 8bit like adobe's help site suggested but still no luck. i'm brand new to cs4 and i need some help, any ideas?
here is the link to the tutorial: http://tv.adobe.com/#vi+f1600v1000

While I have not had any issues with Importing .PSD's into PrPro, I have with InDesign, when the .PSD was not Saved with "maximize compatibility." After some issues with InDesign, I reset my Preferences in PS to always "maximize compatibility." No issues since.
Now, some PrPro users say that this is never an issue with PrPro, but you might want to check. Just open the image in PS, and do a Save_As, checking "maximize compatibility," and try again.
BTW, where did the .PSD files come from? Do they open fine in PS?
Good luck,
Hunt

  • Imported PSD Files Are Being Erroneously Resized in Captivate 4

    I am trying to import PSD files to use in my Captivate 4 project. I verified that the PSD image size is 800 x 600, and my Captivate project dimensions are the same 800 x 600. But when the import process completes, the layers are erroneously resized to smaller dimensions. I have tried the same thing on two separate installations of Captivate 4 on two separate PC's with the same results.
    Here is a screenshot of the PSD file in Photoshop (image size = 800 x 600):
    Now here is a screenshot of what the imported PSD file looks like in the Captivate project (screen size set to 800 x 600):
    When I do the import, I'm selecting: File --> Import --> Photoshop File..., then I select the "As Layers" option, and do not check the box next to "Scale according to stage size" (I have tried using this option as well with the same results, although I don't believe I should have to rescale when the PSD image size and Captivate project size are the same.)
    Any help with this would be greatly appreciated.

    Thanks so much for such a prompt reply...the single .psd file with many layers is imported using:
    Import Kind: Composition
    Layer Options: Editable Layer Styles; Life Photoshop 3D (although there are no 3D layers in the .psd...so I'm unsure if this default is needed?)
    Oh!!  Never mind...I just tried Import Kind: Composition -- Cropped Layers and the layers were not cropped...kind of counter-intuitive since I would have thought "Cropped Layers" would crop the layers rather than the other way around. 
    Thanks for your help...if you just reply to this post I'll mark your reply as the answer, thanks for suggesting the direction to look for a solution, cheers!

  • Layers of imported .psd files are cropped?

    Hi, when importing .psd files the images on layers are cropped...?
    In Photoshop an image on a layer is moved across the visible portion of the document as if it is animated, through the use of comp layers (each new comp layer the image is move a little bit).  However after importing the .psd into After Effects only a portion of the image is visible...it is impossible to recreate the animation roughed out with Photoshop comps because some of the image on the layer being moved is cropped. 
    I hope that makes sense...how can .psd files be imported into After Effects without cropping?  Thanks

  • How can I import psd photos from Elements into iPhoto?

    I cannot import psd photos into iPhoto without saving them to the desktop, which is a real hassle (hundreds of photos).  Am I doing something incorrectly?  Thanks for any advice.

    I may be preaching to the choir here but this might be of help to you:
    Using Photoshop (or Photoshop Elements) as Your Editor of Choice in iPhoto.
    1 - select Photoshop as your editor of choice in iPhoto's General Preference Section's under the "Edit photo:" menu.
    Click to view full size
    2 - double click on the thumbnail in iPhoto to open it in Photoshop.  When you're finished editing click on the Save button. If you immediately get the JPEG Options window make your selection (Baseline standard seems to be the most compatible jpeg format) and click on the OK button. Your done.  3 - however, if you get the navigation window
    Click to view full size
    that indicates that  PS wants to save it as a PS formatted file.  You'll need to either select JPEG from the menu and save (top image) or click on the desktop in the Navigation window (bottom image) and save it to the desktop for importing as a new photo.
    This method will let iPhoto know that the photo has been editied and will update the thumbnail file to reflect the edit..
    NOTE: With Photoshop Elements 9 or later the Saving File preferences should be configured as shown:
    Click to view full size
    I also suggest the Maximize PSD File Compatabilty be set to Always.  In PSE’s General preference pane set the Color Picker to Apple as shown:
    Click to view full size
    NOTE: If you want to use both iPhoto's editing mode and PS without having to go back and forth to the Preference pane, once you've selected PS as your editor of choice, reset the Preferences back to "Open in main window".  That will let you either edit in iPhoto (click on the Edit button) or in PS (Control-click on the thumbnail and select "Edit in external editor" in the Contextual menu).  This way you get the best of both worlds.

  • After Effects CC crashing on importing PSD (ae.blitpipe error message)

    Hi guys,
    I hope you can help me, Adobe Support couldn't so far.
    I recently installed After Effects CC on my MacBook Pro 13" (2012), 16GB RAM, Mountain Lion 10.8.4.
    I cannot import PSD files into AE. Everytime I try, it crashes with the following message:
    Zuletzt protokollierte Meldung: <140735306359168> <ae.blitpipe> <2> Making New Context
    It doesn't matter, what kind of PSD file I try to import. But to be sure, I created a new PSD file, 1920x1080, 72 dpi, RGB, just with a background, no effects, flattened, just that single background layer. It won't import, AE always crashes.
    I'm also running After Effects CS3 on that MacBook. Importing PSD files there works perfectly here.
    I tried these troubleshooting procedures:
    - trashing preferences
    - uninstalling every single Adobe Product
    - cleaning with the Creative Suite Cleaning Tool
    - Reinstalling just After Effects CC (still wont import PSD files at this stage)
    - Reinstalling Photoshop Elements 11, creating a new PSD file, still doesn't work.
    I don't know what else to do right now. I want to avoid reinstalling the whole operating system because I'm working on projects at the moment (with Final Cut Pro X).
    You have an idea?

  • Importing PSD or PNGS? (Transparent)

    Since Flash CS3 imports PSDs, should I continue importing
    PNGS and JPEGS?
    I am importing Transparent PSDs and find the published file
    swf size is a little smatter than when I import transparent PNGs.
    What is the rule of thumb with Flash CS3 and importing?
    Thanks for your help.

    there is no rule of thumb - the PSD import wizard is an added
    and welcomed feature if you are
    working with layered PSD files and Flash - but if you have a
    single PNG then that's fine to import
    on its own also.
    As for file size - there may be a difference between a PNG
    and the same PNG in a PSD file - I have
    never tested it.

  • Color discrepancy with imported PSD between Motion and FCP

    I've got a Motion project with an imported PSD file as a background element (the PSD was created in Photoshop CS2 for Windows, running under Parallels).
    The PSD file consists of two overlapping curved shapes, one blue, one green (part of our corporate look). The colors (RGB) match our official guidelines.
    I imported the Motion project to FCP and placed it on the timeline, on V1. In FCP, I then used a color generator to create a small blue rectangle which would serve as a border for a slightly smaller thumbnail image that would get overlaid later on. The rectangle is on V2. I used the exact same RGB values for it as I did in Photoshop for the curved shape.
    Trouble is, the blue color in the shape that got imported into FCP inside the Motion project doesn't match the generated color.
    See this screenshot, in FCP:
    http://elamaton.no-ip.com/~jarkko/colordiscrepancymotion.png
    Three blues: leftmost, the color generator resized to a small rectangle; on the center, the shape that I created in Photoshop and imported into a Motion project, dropped into FCP; rightmost, an instance of Photoshop CS2 running in a virtual WinXP in Parallels Desktop. You'll notice that the blues of the generator and Photoshop match, but the middle shape that travelled the CS2->Motion->FCP route is a different shade.
    Narrowing it down further, I decided to import the PSD file directly into FCP (just to see if it'd match - it needs to go through Motion for the final product). Here's a screengrab of Canvas this time:
    http://elamaton.no-ip.com/~jarkko/colordiscrepancy_motion2.png
    Again, from left to right: the generated rectangle, the directly imported PSD, the PSD in the imported Motion project. The first two match, but something in Motion or the Photoshop->Motion route screws up the colors of the blue-green shape (as well as the Työterveyslaitos logo on the top left, also a PSD, in the same Motion project). The blue shade is also incorrect in the Motion canvas, pre-import to FCP.
    What's going on here, and how can I fix things?
    The project settings are PAL DV in both FCP and Motion. No rendering has been done, I'm importing the .motn into FCP as-is.
    Any help is greatly appreciated, deadlines loom...

    First, double-check that your PSD is in RGB, but I suspect it it or it wouldn't even work in FCP. I suspect a gamma issue moving between the apps:
    http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=93794
    You might try setting the colorspace in FCP to RGB or adding a gamma filter in Motion to adjust.

  • Why does Premiere Pro CS3 no longer import .psd files?

    Over in the German forum, BjoernG has already asked this question as of this past June.  He's gotten no answer, so let's try it here.  Like Bjoern I use PPro CS3.  Mine is on WinXP with all updates.  I import PSD files as keying masks.  I've never had a problem until this evening (27 Aug 2014).  I tried to import a mask I've used many times before.  And it has always worked before.  Tonight PPro refused to recognize .psd as a supported file type, so it didn't show in the import folder file list.  When I told PPro to show "all files *.*", it showed the file.  When I selected it, PPro even showed the "import file" window, then displayed the "File Import Failure" window with Error Message:  File format not supported.  See the picture.
    This is a file I've imported into many previous projects with no problem whatever.  In fact, I started with a project file from last year which showed the mask file in the project assets but offline!  Even though the file had not been moved.
    If PPro CS3 is as obsolete as Adobe claims it is, then who's been messing with it?  And how can we get it "unmessed"?

    I couldn't imagine what any of those steps would do for my problem – but I didn't have a better idea so I tried them:
    > If Premiere is acting weird, restart computer.
    It's a laptop, so it was off all night.  I turned it on this morning.
    > Hold down shift+alt while opening Premiere.
    If I hold down shift-alt before clicking the desktop icon, all it does is select all icons from top left to the Premiere icon.  It does not start Premiere.
    If I press and hold shift-alt immediately after clicking the icon, Premiere displays every tiny module it loads rather than summarizing.  I held shift-alt until Premiere was fully up and idle.
    > Then empty all media cache.
    I did that.  As I write, Premiere is busy reconstituting all of that.
    Then finally, the acid test:  Try to import a .psd file.  Bzz-z-zt!  Still claims it's an unknown file type.
    > jpegs do not have transparency. You can save as png instead.
    I'm using it as a track matte key, so white is equivalent to transparent.  I do have to select "matte luma" instead of "matte alpha" in the effect.  I'll save your advice in case I ever do need transparency.
    Follow-up:  I checked my other licensed copy.  It accepts .psds just fine.  I checked Help About for both; they're identical:  3.2.0 (374).  So the problem must be in an internal setting, an external influence, or a defective module.  And remember, it's not just me, Björn in Germany reported the identical problem in June.

  • Importing PSD files create a black line to the right of some images

    I am importing PSD files into Framemaker 11 and they keep giving me a vertical line on the right side of some images. I already know that other image file formats don't cause this, but I prefer the practicality of PSD files and not having to deal with duplicate files of the same image. I figured that native Adobe files that are supposed to be cross platform compatible should work without any issues. I get lines when converting to PDF documents and when I print them out also. I’m getting ready to publish our catalog and would like to prevent the printer from cleaning them up again.  Does anyone know how to fix it or if Adobe is currently addressing this issue ? Who can I contact to let them know about the issue, since it has been around from the time Frame started accepting PSD files?
    Thanks,

    Hi ais007,
    This is gonna sound really crazy, but this happened to me a couple of years ago. Below is the answer....hope it helps for you!
    Found the answer to this in the framers digest mailout (framers Digest, Vol 71, Issue 9). Hopefully it wll help you too.
    I am not sure about the Illustrator files, but for Photoshop, resize your images so that the last number is an even number. (example: change 3.25 to 3.24)
    This worked for me! I couldn't believe it!

    OK, if this is a template file and you are trying to customize a single word, or a list of words that are always in the same places (I was thinking at first that you want to change words in one part of a paragraph if some other trigger word appeared), like a form letter that needs to have the recipients name inserted, then you can use either a custom text variable or Data Merge.
    For one-off production the variable is probably easier -- just redifine the text string  each time you make a new copy, but if you have a list of words and want to make a copy for each one in a single session, Data Merge would be more efficient.

  • Import error when importing .psd file created in Photoshop CS3

    I have a file that was created in Photoshop CS3. I am trying to import this file into Catalyst CS5, but I keep getting an input error. I created a file in Photoshop CS5 and I was able to import this .psd file successfully into catalyst. So I guess my question is this; Does Catalyst support .psd files created in Photoshop CS5 only? If this is the case, how can I convert the CS3 .psd to a CS5 .psd

    I am now building my files using photoshop CS5. A few challenges I have experienced while trying to import into Catalyst:
    - If I do a straight import into Catalyst, I loose all my colors in Catalyst. That is, catalyst imports all my vectors without any of the colors I had in Photoshop. My understanding is that Catalyst has libraries to support Photoshop files, so your import from Photoshop should not look any different in Catalyst.
    Work Around: I have had to rasterize / merged all my image layers for the different components I have built in Photoshop CS5. Then when I start the import process I click the Advanced button on the catalyst import dialog. From the advanced dialog, I have to flatten (to bitmap) all the images I intend to import.
    This process takes about two hours because I have a lot of components on the page.
    Is there something  I'm not doing right here? I'm not seeing the value add to Catalyst, if it's taking me this long to just import .psd files

  • Importing PSD

    Hello,
    I am trying to import a psd into FCP 6 with multiple layers and for some reason when I open it in FCP the image is all messed up. some of the layers don't pop up, the glow effects, cropping and fading is all weird.
    Please help

    First you need to rasterize any layer effects in photoshop before saving the psd file (you might want to duplicate the file before doing this). There are 2 other possible issues. If I remember correctly, some people reported problems importing psd files that had any empty layers. And, psd files created on a pc need to be opened in photoshop on the mac and saved there before importing into fcp.

  • Importing .PSDs into CC as movieClips

    Hello,
    I rely on flash for work, importing psds into flash is a regular part of my day - but it looks like with FlashCC the funtionality to import layers as movieclips, and to set the registration point of those movie clips has been removed. Im working with multiple files with hudreds of layers, and going through converting each layer into a movieclip is very inconvenient. Is there something Im missing or is there no way to do this?

    This was changed in flash CC. You can see more details on http://forums.adobe.com/thread/1238722?tstart=0
    Have a bug created and tarcking this internally for a later update.

  • Importing PSDs to Flash

    When Importing PSDs to Flash why do you end up with bitmap colour information (which of course is not editable), if you start with vector shapes in Photoshop. I still don't understand why they got rid of export swf when they ditched imageready after cs2. It used to work so well.

    Thanks for your reply. I figured it out, It just took some time. I have to
    delete that post because it´s stupid.

    actionscript in the imported swfs will not work and never did work in any
    version of flash.  i don't know anything about flash studio so i can't
    comment on how that worked.
