Help with Nik Plug-Ins

In the plug  -in manger when I click add the nix collection will not highlight. what am I doing rong?

If you are talking about the Nik collection, I just ran the installer provided by Google. It installed and was added to the "Edit in" menu in Lightroom and was also added to Photoshop CS6.

  • Why are frame sizes increasing after editing with Nik plug-ins?

    I’m using the Nik Collection of plug-ins with Aperture, and have discovered that the frame size of the resulting edits always end up larger than the original - sometimes much larger.
    The original image starts as 4592 x 3448 but after editing, the longest side of the resulting image is typically over 5000, 6000 or even 7000 pixels. 
    I recently worked on a cropped image that started at 4138 x 2759 and ended up at 7361 x 4908, after editing with a combination of Dfine, Viveza, Color Efex + Silver Efex.  If I export a version during the editing process, and then carry out futher editing, the frame size increases again.
    I’m exporting from Aperture using the TIFF - Original Size (16 bit) setting. 
    Can anyone tell me what’s going on here?  I’m concerned that the quality of the images is being compromised by the enlargement. 
    I'm using the latest set of Nik plug-ins, with Aperture 3.2.4 on a MBP running 10.6.8

    Keli
    In order to open Aperture in 32-bit mode by default you can right-click on the application icon, select "Get Info" and check the box marked "Open In 32-bit Mode" (or you can continue to run it by default in 64-bit mode and just get forced to re-open the app anytime you need to use plug-ins that can only run in 32-bit mode).
    hope this helps!

  • Help with Logic + Plug-ins-- Spinning Wheel of Death

    I'm using Logic 9.1.8 with NI's Machine Mikro and a Focusrite 2i2.  All of the most recent drivers are installed and I had been using them both in Logic successfully for days until today.  Now every time I open Logic, the spinning wheel of death appears and will not go away, leading me to force quit.  Any help would be greatly appreciated.  I've tried erasing the Loop stuff in the Library folder as it has said on other boards.  Please .

    Thanks for your help.  For whoever stumbles upon these postings and happens to have the exact problem is me.  I drug the Maschine.component out of the plug-ins folder and on to the desktop, trashed the original, and started Logic Pro.  I then went to preferences and made sure that Logic was opening an empty project at the time of launch.  Before, when the spinning wheel of death was coming up, it was automatically going to my last project and, I believe, getting tripped up on mounting Maschine.  Now everything works fine. 

  • HELP - my Nik plug-ins (and others) no longer work in LR CC

    I don't know what happened (they were there when I first started using CC), but now they are gone!  I uninstalled LR CC (Mac), reinstalled -- still no go Between the presets contextual menu wiped clean off the face of the earth, my plug-ins blown away, and the less than stellar HDR and pano -- I've just about had it with LR CC
    Here is a before & after screen grab of the contextual menu ("before" pic grabbed form LR 5.7, which still works as expected).

    You may have watched the same tutorial that I did - recommending that you store your presets with the catalog. Apparently a bad move.
    You must un-check the yellow highlighted box show below in order to see your "Edit In" choices.

  • Help With SkillBuilders Plug-Ins Integration

    Hi All,
    I have the following situation and I appreciate any help regarding to this (Apex Version 4.1.1.00.23):
    I have a Page with the SB Calendar Plug-In, when the user clicks on the Create Event button, a modal page pop-ups with a form that allows the user to enter an event using the Schedule Plug-in. After created, the modal page closes and the calendar is refreshed with the event. This part works fine.
    My problem is with the following situation: when clicking in an existing Event on the Calendar, I want to be able to open the same modal page with the Event Details to allow the user to modify it.
    I tried defining a class in my Calendar query, and specified the URL with the Event Details Page; also, created a Dynamic Action to trigger when the class is clicked (Scope: live) and open the modal, but what it does instead:
    1. The Modal Page opens empty, and immediately
    2. The complete page is redirected to the Event Details Page with the information of the Event.I set up an example on apex.oracle.com:
    Workspace: EDIAZJORGE
    Username: TEST
    Password: test
    Application: 34925 - Schedule Event
    Again, I appreciate any help!
    Thank you and regards,
    Erick

    Erick,
    When the anchor is clicked, its default action is executed, which is to redirect to the href.
    You have bound a click handler to the div container of the anchor. This occurs, and you briefly see the modal start up before the page is redirected.
    So, to fix this the default action on click of the anchor tag has to be prevented.
    You can not specify something like this in the plugin however, and also not from the SQL. Neither can you adjust the dynamic action: adding a "Cancel Event" true action will not fix this.
    I changed the "Edit Event Details" dynamic action jQuery selector from ".eventClicked" to ".eventClickedLink"
    I added a dynamic action "Attach modal page edit to links", which is a "Page load" action. There is a true action which executes javascript:
    $(".eventClicked a").click(function(event){
    event.preventDefault();
    }).addClass("eventClickedLink")This will prevent the default action on click of the anchor tag, which has the eventClicked class on page load, and then add the class eventClickedLink to it, which will allow the modal page dynamic action to react to it (it has to have the dynamic scope too, which it already had).
    The class juggle is necessary. If you'd not use the class names and let the page load, then the modal page dynamic action will already have bound a click handler to the matched elements. Assigning another click handler at that point would have no result.

  • Optimal workflow for batch processing LR files with Nik plug ins

    I have a series of 40 or so landscape images that I would like to efficiently apply a couple of Nik filters to using Color Efex.  I'd appreciate any suggestions re: the most efficient workflow to accomplish this task in a batch processing approach, as my current approach of taking each image into Photoshop, while preserving Smart Filter benefits, is terribly inefficient.  Thanks in advance.

    Hi,
    Sorry but File->Process Multiple Files is the only way and functionalities with which you can batch process your images in PSE. However you can add action in Window->Action Player and apply to your images opened in workspace -

    http://forums.adobe.com/message/4736578
    The functionality is available in full functionality product Photoshop via File->Automate->Batch where you can load actions in action panel and they would appear in this dialog box but this is not available in Elements.
    The best way to do here is to load actions in Window->Action Player and open all your images and click on play button one by one and then use Process Multiple Files to save all these in one go as per your preferences of file type, size, name etc.
    Thanks,

  • With Ap3 do we still need Nik Plug-ins

    I bought the Nik plug-ins mainly for noise reduction, viveza and selective sharpening. It seems like with brushes these plug-ins are now unnecessary and still will result in large tiff files once 64-bit compatible.
    Am I missing anything here?

    I think they are "less necessary," but I don't think they are unnecessary. Certainly Silver FX and Color FX offer things you can't get directly within Aperture. The Nik sharpening is very good; probably better for output sharpening than what's built in to Aperture but it depends on what you are doing - if you're printing for sales and very critical you may still need it.
    I rarely used the Nik noise reduction plug-in because I didn't want to convert my files to TIFF early in the workflow.

  • Does Mountain Lion (10.8.4) come with SharePoint plug-ins, or did I just install these?

    I did a custom installation of Microsoft Office 2011 for Mac on my MacBook Air running 10.8.4., but I changed my mind and decided to uninstall it.
    I only installed Word, Excel, and Proofing Tools (English only).
    I'm reading up on how to fully remove all the tidbits Microsoft sprinkled about, and I noticed a couple files on my system:
    /Library/Internet Plug-Ins/SharePointBrowserPlugin.plugin
    /Library/Internet Plug-Ins/SharePointWebKitPlugin.webplugin
    I didn't include SharePoint in the installation, so I'm not sure that's where these files came from. It's a new machine, so the only alternative is that they were included with OS X 10.8.4, in which case I'm inclined to leave them be.
    Does anybody know more about these files, where they likely came from?

    AFAIK OS X 10.8.4 does not come with SharePoint plug-ins. Those are from Microsoft and are most likely added by SilverLight.
    I am running OS X 10.10.1 and Office 14.4.6 and I do not have SilverLight installed... I do not have those two plug-ins you mention. Thus I don't believe Office for the Mac 2011 loaded them.
    Hope that helps

  • Strange behavior after using NIK plug-ins

    Every once in a while I encounter this strange behavior of Aperture. I first process the NEF's in Aperture (white balance, Exposure, Enhance... and, when needed, Cropping) and then I fine tune the image with the NIK plug-ins; when needed DfIne 2.0, Viveza, Color Efex Pro 3.0 and Sharpener Pro 3.0 Output Sharpener.
    If I look at the processed picture then, I get a perfect presentation of the photo;
    !http://users.skynet.be/fc419085/Aperture-1.jpg!
    But when I press Z to zoom into a 100% preview I get this;
    !http://users.skynet.be/fc419085/Aperture-2.jpg!
    When I select the Loup in the normal view mode I get this;
    !http://users.skynet.be/fc419085/Aperture-3.jpg!
    This doesn't happen with all my pictures, yesterday I processed a series of 8 pictures an 6 of them showed this behavior the other two acted normal and I can't see what I did differently whit these last two.
    When I export the strangely behaving photo's to a Tiff or a Jpeg, I get perfectly normal pictures.
    The original NEF behaves normal. I have seen this behavior with NEF's from a Nikon D200, D2x and a D300. I have Aperture 2.1.2 running on a 2.33 GHz Intel Core Duo MacBook Pro running Mac OS X 10.5.6
    Does anybody know what's happening and if so, how to solve this problem?
    Cheers,
    Ivan

    I did some testing and what I found is too weird to be true.
    First this mashed up look doesn't only happen after using NIK plug-ins, it also happens when making a roundtrip to Photoshop, given that certain conditions are met.
    Give it a try yourself. Crop an image to an uneven pixelcount dimension, for example 4227 x 2797 and make a roundtrip to Photoshop. Then have a 100% view look at the new image in Aperture. You'll have a mashed up view, at least I do.
    Now crop the same original image to an even pixelcount dimension, for example 4228 x 2798 and make an roundtrip to Photoshop once more. When you have a 100% view of the new image now, you'll see a perfectly normal photo.
    Do you think Aperture developers are reading this forum?

    I had my iTunes set up to play music through my receiver & speakers upstairs. I have airport with RCA plug ins to my receiver auxiliary jacks. Homesharing is on & everything checks out but it no longer works. Any suggestions? I have no firewall & I have removed Smith clean program to fix this issue. I am running OS 10.8.2

    I called AppleCare this morning and Sean helped me out in a huge way. In all of my attempts, I had not done a factory-default reset on the main base station and apparently some sort of endless loop had occurred between those two stations. Sean was very helpful and patient with me, but now the system is working as promised. Moral of this story is if a factory default rest doesn't help on the "problem" base station, try resetting all of the units.

  • Integrating Nik plug-ins into an Aperture workflow

    Hi. In his response to a [posted question|http://discussions.apple.com/thread.jspa?threadID=2746051&tstart=0] about noise reduction, forum guru William Lloyd spoke highly of the Nik plug-ins.
    I also like them alot, but have stopped using them and don't recommend them because they do not integrate into my Aperture workflow in any usable way. The suite of plug-ins (there are six, iirc) are designed to be used step-wise -- and therein lies the problem. Because of what I take to be a glitch in Aperture, any changes made within Aperture to an image edited and returned by a plug-in are lost when that image is sent back out to another plug-in. (The work-around is klugly: you have to create a new Version prior to every use of a plug-in other than the first use.)
    I love the Nik tools (and paid dear for them), but haven't been able to find the right place for them on my workbench. William -- or anyone -- how have you integrated the Nik plug-ins into your Aperture workflow?
    I am considering "upgrading" my Nik suite to the Photoshop edition in order to take advantage of all the tools. I'm pretty sure used w. Photoshop, the tools create editable layers. The upgrade, however, doubles the already expensive cost of the suite (and the Aperture→Photoshop→Nik→Photoshop→Nik→Photoshop→Nik→Photoshop→Aperture trip is sure to be cumbersome).
    My goal is simple: to be able to take full advantage of the Nik tools while taking full advantage of Aperture. Any advice greatly appreciated.
    TIA, and cheers.
