Hidden Power Tools for Elements 4.0 on Adobe Exchange!!

Hopefully this fulfills the requirements of Adobe listmoms...
I posted my sample tool set for Elements users for free download on Adobe Exchange. The tool set includes 16 tools for Elements users.
The free set includes:
*Align Bottom Edge
*Align Horizontal Centers
*Align Left Edge
*Align Right Edge
*Align Top Edge
*Align Vertical Centers
*Color Picker
*Component Blue
*Component Green
*Component Red
*Layer Mask
*Luminosity and Color
*Mask Highlights
*Mask Shadows
*Simple Channel Mixer
*Transform Selection
You can get it by visiting the posting for the tools on
Adobe Exchange.
If you have trouble with the direct link to Adobe Exchange, you can go to the exchange for Photoshop ( http://share.studio.adobe.com/axBrowseProduct.asp?p=2 )and search for "hidden power" under the Find on the left side of the page.
The ZIP file includes a readme/index file that lists the tools and descriptions along with troubleshooting and installation information.
I hope this helps users!

Please try it with version 3.7. You can find it at
http://www.adobe.com/support/downloads/detail.jsp?ftpID=3591
To install with Adobe Photoshop Elements 4.0:
1. Exit Photoshop Elements and Adobe Bridge
2. Open the Finder
3. Navigate to the root of the local disk (not the user's home folder).
4. Navigate to:
(Please read directory carefully)
Library/Application Support/Adobe/Plug-Ins/CS2/File Formats
5. Move the existing plug-in to another location (for example, a new folder on your desktop). Ensure you keep this version in case you need to revert back.
6. Copy the Camera Raw plug-in,
Camera Raw, from the download into the same folder as in Step 4.
7. Launch Photoshop Elements or Adobe Bridge.
Also make sure that you don't have the Nikon raw/nef plug in installed and over riding the Adobe one. Sorry, I don't have a Nikon to be able to tell you the name of their plugin.

  • Power Tools hanging

    I downloaded and purchased Power Tools for my BlackBerry Z10 primarily for the Message Filter service.
    I configured a number of filters to remove spam which seem to work, however it periodically hangs requiring it to be stopped using the device monitor and restarting.
    it gets regular updates from the makers of it is up to date, I was just wondering if anyone else was using this app and they were experiencing the same hangs. If so, if they had any cures for this.
    Thanks

    Well I got a response very quickly, but it was only to check that I had not installed toolbar wallpaper, which I hadn't.
    I noticed that the company ToySoft also have a free product Power Bot which restarts Power Tools if it crashes. I've installed it to see if it cures my problems, so far it seems to be cleaning up email as intended without having to do it manually or restart. I don't know if it's buggy or that the OS causes it to crash periodically (possible since other programs suffer the same hangs or crashes) . As Power Bot is also a headless app I guess this may also crash!
    Cheers

  • Problems running the installer for Elements 11 - Mac

    Mac OS10.8.3
    15" Retina 2.7GHz  16GB RAM
    I have downloaded the installation file for Elements 11 using the Adobe Installer; upon running the installer I get an invalid checksum error.  Tried repeated times, same result.  Tried disabling checksum check in disk utility, lets me get one step futther to see the installer package contents upon mounting the .dmg.  When I run the installer, error message appears as follows;
    Failed to initialise Installer
    I got a message to install the Adobe Support Advisor, which I did.  I ran it, and it did not detect any issues. 
    Have also tried using disk utility to verify and repair the downlaoded adobe dmg before mounting it - no change in the error when I try to run the installer.
    Any advice?
    Thanks, JB.

  • Packaging plug-in into ZXP for Adobe Exchange

    Hi All,
    I'm trying to package plug-in for Lightroom in order to make it available on Adobe Exchange.
    Online packager that is available on Adobe Exchange site offers Lightroom option, but apparently produces incorrect package that cannot be used later for installation. While using Adobe Exchange Packager for preparing ZXP package, I'm requested for compatible product - and there is no Lightroom among them - the closest match is Photoshop.
    Does anybody know the solution for packaging of plug-ins for Lightroom for Adobe Exchange?
    Best regards,
    Sergey

    I sent my plugin to Adobe as a zip file (I think this was as instructed in July), they built the .zxp file and the resulting "installation" is that they would drop a .zip file into Downloads folder.  Some how I find regular downloads much more user-friendly
    I looked at few other plugins, and they seemed to do the same .zip dropping.  I asked Adobe support and they had no other solution, but I guess they were working on it.
    Looking now at Adobe's own Aperture import plugin, it does properly install to Lightroom/Modules directory, so maybe they have worked it out, I haven't really bothered since the market seems dead anyway.  Lightroom doesn't even link to it from the help menu, as it used to in the old Adobe Exchange days.

  • Using Lightroom as an External editor for Elements

    I just got copies of lightroom 5 and Elements 12.  I've been using Elements for years and really love the organizer. While I know that Lightroom should have the ability to convert an Elements organizer as of version 5.4, I find the Elements organizer far better for tagging, facial recongition and usage. I like having Lightroom as an editor for the first round of simple edits.  I figured out how to configure Elements to call Lightroom to edit a picture directly.  (Edit-> Preferences->Editing)  WIth that setting, I can now use lightroom on my photos.  I find the problem is when I finish in Lightroom the pictures do not get automatically imported back directly into Elements.  Is there a way to configure this?

    Agreeing with 99jon, and adding that in my opinion, the only logical use of the two programs is to use the Lightroom Library Module (not the PSE Organizer) as the tool for organizing your photos, and the Lightroom Develop module as your primary editor, and the PHotoshop Elements Editor as the supplemental editor for the situation where you need more power editing than Lightroom provides.
    Why? Because Lightroom is designed  so that it can relatively seemlessly send photos to PSE for extra editing and receive the edited photo back from PSE.
    There is no relatively seemless way to have the PSE Organizer send photos to Lightroom and receive the edited photo in return. You will do a lot of extra work to make this work. I am also very skeptical about this statement, I don't think it opens your photos in the Lightroom Develop Module, but I admit I haven't tried it: "I figured out how to configure Elements to call Lightroom to edit a picture directly.  (Edit-> Preferences->Editing)  WIth that setting, I can now use lightroom on my photos."

  • In Fluid Grid layout, I have hidden 2 div for mobile layout. How do I unhide them?

    In Fluid Grid layout, I have hidden 2 <div> for mobile layout. How do I unhide them?

    Hi there,
    I visited your site using Dreamweaver CC and tested it using the default Desktop, Tablet and Mobile sizes, followed by the Smart Phone Size.
    The CSS you currently have sets the featurest <div> to 'display: none' when viewed on screen sizes lower than 480px:
    Another helpful way to find out what is going on with your CSS is to test the site with Firefox using Web Developer Tools to inspect the element (or alternatively, Adobes Inspect tool). You can right-click the image and "Inspect Element" then resize the browser window so you can see exactly which CSS rule is being applied and overrided.
    My suggestion would be to add an additional media query in Dreamweaver to handle all screen sizes below 480px and then set divs or elements you want to hide or show display property to visible.
    Hope this helps!

  • Are there any recovery tools for optical media?

    I've had a couple of DVD's  turned in to coasters recently and I was hoping that Linux could come to my rescue with some awesome 'raw-read' / recovery tools for optical media?
    I burnt the discs in Windows 7 using InfraRecorder on a brand new Plextor drive (a 'PX-891SA') and these are my first attempts to burn discs with it so I'm a bit worried it could be a hardware fault!
    I started off trying to back up some files to clear some space on my hard-drive, burning them to a dual-layer dvd, but the software kept failing to even start the burn process -- that was until I realised that I needed to run the program "as Administrator" (in Windows). It did then manage to burn the disc (I was using "Session-at-Once" mode) however when it came to the end of the burn process / the start of the 'verify data' phase it threw an error saying the write process had failed! Windows couldn't access the disc / data and (I think) still thought the disk was empty. So I restarted the burning application and used a function to just 'close' the whole disc. This seemed to work because Windows was then able to recognise the disc and read the data, although accessing the disc was slow and sounded 'stutter' ish.
    I then tried to write a single layer dvd to finish off the last couple of gig I had to back up, but again the software completed the burn phase only to report a 'fail' error right at the end (I'm assuming) before finalising the disc. Although this time I'd tried to create a multi-session disc by using the '2XXA' (or something) 'Multi-Session' iso9660 format. The result was that Windows couldn't read the disc and still thought it was empty, even after trying a forced 'close disc' operation! -- Linux however could read the disc and see that the data had in fact been burnt to the disc (although I've not yet tried copying it in Linux!).
    Finally I needed to burn a load of archives to a couple of discs (totaling ~9GiB) -- starting with a dual-layer dvd first everything seemed to be working fine, the burn process started okay and the write buffer was full etc., until at what I assume was the layer change-over it all came to a grinding halt and threw another 'write operation failed' error, only this time I can't even mount the disk in Linux....see 'dmesg | tail' output below:
    [ 5758.353005] ISO 9660 Extensions: Microsoft Joliet Level 3
    [ 5758.353015] ISOFS: Interleaved files not (yet) supported.

    [ 5758.353037] isofs_fill_super: root inode is not a directory. Corrupted media?
    Does anyone have any thought or suggestions that might help?
    - Is it likely to be a hardware fault? (I bought a Plextor because I thought they were one of the best!)
    Maybe even if I could just close the session all would not be lost?

    @chris_l -- yeah I was worried that might be the case, still I'm not sure if that explains why it keeps failing the burn process part way through?
    I've tried this and that in Linux but without much luck. I'm still quite a noob with a lot of Linux things and this is the first time I'm trying anything to do with optical disks/drives etc. so I'm learning as I go...
    The disk that failed in Windows but was 'readable' in Linux did just pass a run through ddrescue -- i.e. it created an output file okay and did not report any errors in the process.
    However when I mounted the resulting image and tried to copy the files across the first folder reported an "input/ouput error" (just using gui copy+paste in Thunar file manager)
    ...the other folders did copy okay though!
    It seems as though it's the lead-in / lead-out and disc finalizing process that are the main fail points with the burn operation. I don't know if InfraRecorder is any good or likely to be the problem? Anyway the drive cam with Nero (inc. Linux version) so might give either or both of these a go too, if they don't work either then at least I wont be short of something to rest a mug o' tea on
    @ chris_l (again) -- the Plextor drives do have a "Vari-Rec" feature which allows a user to 'tweak' the laser power / output level so I might try this too.
    @alphaniner -- thanks I've not seen this package before, I'm guessing it's a bit like cdparanoia but for dvds?!
    Thanks for the help!
    (pre-post) UPDATE >>> I've just mounted my Windows partition  in Linux so I'll have a crack at burning the files using cdrtools before I resort to throwing the dvd drive out of the window and chasing it around the yard with a lump hammer

  • Is the iCloud a backup tool for your computer?  How do I get my data back -- off the iCloud?

    Is the iCloud a backup tool for your computer?  ---- Apple care suggested using iCloud for a backup to my documents.  I do not have an iphone, ipad or laptop.  Just an iMac.  Nothing to share the data with.
    Now I am unable to access some of my documents on my computer and saving documents is cumbersome because it always wants to save it in iCloud, not my computer.  The documents I am unable to open are my old MS-Word.  One is a macro enabled word doc.   I am using os x mountain lion.
    After over an hour chat with apple care, the issue is not resolved.  I did not have more time to resolve the issue today and it will be continued next week.  Per apple care, I do not have any documents in the iCloud however I am almost at the free capacity with  contacts and documents.
    My question is -- If I purchase backup from a clould provider - other than apple, back up my files in documents in their cloud (make sure I can open them) and then delete the link to iCloud.  Would I preserve my data? Has anyone tried this?  I am open to suggestions.
    Thanks,
    Phyllis

    Is the iCloud a backup tool for your computer?  ---- Apple care suggested using iCloud for a backup to my documents.
    Not really. You can store "Documents in the Cloud" but this applies only to documents created by Pages, Numbers, Preview, Keynote, and Microsoft Office documents created on your computer stored in iCloud's "iWork". Within that limited purpose, iCloud works very well.
    My question is -- If I purchase backup from a clould provider - other than apple, back up my files in documents in their cloud (make sure I can open them) and then delete the link to iCloud.  Would I preserve my data?
    I'm not quite sure I understand what you mean by "purchase backup from a cloud provider" but if you're considering a service such as Carbonite, I don't advocate any of them. To back up your Mac, use your own backup device - Time Capsule or an external hard disk. It's inexpensive and reliable: two elements essential for a backup strategy, that no subscription service can offer.

  • Is it too much to ask MS for a simple ad-hoc query tool for end users?

    Hello
    This is a general MS BI topic and not specific to Power Query, but I couldn't find a more suitable general forum for it.
    This posting is the result of the frustration I have with MS BI stack, whereby a simple ad-hoc drag and drop query tool to get the data in a table format (preferably from a relational
    data source) is missing, something that other big vendors have, such as SAP Business Objects Universe and the associated tools. The deprecated SSRS Report model and SMDL was the closest MS ever got to this functionality (although that had some limitations
    too), which unfortunately is dead now in favour of all sort of "Power" tools that basically can’t deliver the same functionality.
    The requirement is pretty simple: provide users with a tool that they can drag and drop fields from different entities in a data model without having to worry about entity relationships and
    apply necessary filters and get the data out in Excel or CSV, no fancy (or even simple) aggregation or formatting is required, and users should only see the rows they are authorized to see, i.e. row level security (RLS) of data.
    Let’s see what we have at our disposal from MS BI:
    From the modeling perspective, we have relational models in the database that support RLS with views, but obviously cannot maintain PK-FK relationships in the database model between views. Other
    models are .Net Entity Data model Framework model exposed as OData, and SSAS tabular, SSAS PowerPivot, SSAS multidimensional, which you can find a good comparison of their features here:
    http://www.sqlchick.com/entries/2012/3/4/decisions-powerpivot-ssas-tabular -or-ssas-multidimensional-m.html
    From the tools perspective we have:
    Power Query on top of a relational database (SQL Server): Can connect to relational databases easily, generated queries are optimal, detects relationships with entities, but only when entities
    are tables and have PK-FK relationships enforced in the database. So can’t detect relationships with views and hence can’t enforce RLS, so this is not an option unless users keep joining entities, which is not a desirable option either.
    Power Query on top of an OData: Works well except that queries generated for multiple entity expansion are terrible (look here for more details:
    http://social.technet.microsoft.com/Forums/en-US/7a8b8e52-d3a9-42af-bc52-9d5459c00529/odata-multilevel-expand-query-issue?forum=powerquery). In addition all filtering and projections are done at client side, so even if you want 1 row out of 1 million, all
    rows are brought over to Excel before filtered. Overall this results in unacceptable performance even for small sized data.
    Power Query on top of a tabular model: Doesn’t support that type of data source yet (http://social.technet.microsoft.com/Forums/en-US/ebcccb5e-7058-4046-917d-3d7fcf60cbdc/tabular-model-as-data-source-for-power-query?forum=powerquery).
    Even if it did, tabular models don’t support Many-to-Many relationships out of the box and not sure if there are plans to support tabular models in Direct Query mode in Power Query to take care of RLS.
    Excel on top of tabular models or multidimensional models: The tabular model should not be in Direct Query mode and you only get to use PivotTable to query the model. PivotTables are not famous
    for generating optimal MDX queries, so performance is not going to be acceptable if you are dealing with large dimensions, especially large junk and degenerate dimensions. You can use drilltrough to get details of a measure, but you have to specify the columns
    for a drilltrough action upfront, no flexibility for users to select what they want to see.
    PowerPivot on top of relational databases: The query designer cannot detect relationships between views, so users have to perform manual joins, not an option.
    PowerPivot on top of a multidimensional or tabular model: The query designer doesn’t generate optimal MDX queries by drag and drop. Especially there doesn’t seem to be a way to add related
    attributes of a dimension attribute to the query without cross joins which results in poor performance on large dimensions. Other issues found here
    http://sqlblog.com/blogs/marco_russo/archive/2010/08/24/using-ssas-2005-2008-as-powerpivot-data-source-query-designer.aspx. In addition the result set has ugly column names and issues with data types, such as interpreting numeric data types as Text, and
    there’s no straight forward way of getting the data from PowerPivot directly to Excel. The user either has to do a copy/paste (which doesn’t work on large datasets) or create a pivot table, bring the measure, and drillthrough the measure to get the details
    in table format.
    PowerPivot with OData: Treats every entity as a separate table to import, not suitable for our use case.
    Report Builder and SSRS on top of relational, multidimensional or tabular model: Given the query designer is the same as PowerPivot, it has similar issues. In addition, there are 4 more steps
    from designing a query to generating an Excel or CSV output, not an option.
    PowerView: Works against tabular and multidimensional models, but there’s no way of exporting data to Excel sheet. Besides the add-in is not available for Excel 2010.
    Good old MS-Access: Link to tables and views through ODBC, create relationships between entities and give each user a copy of that Access database to create their queries, and deal with the
    nightmares of updates to the model and distribution of new models to the users! Did I mention Access as an option?
    So there you go, 10 options, none of which can deal with a seemingly simple use case sufficiently. At the moment, the best among them appears to be option 6 against a heavily optimized OLAP
    cube, and perhaps #3 when/if Power Query support for tabular models in direct query mode arrives. Perhaps I am missing something very obvious, and would like someone to enlighten me here.
    Thanks

    Hi, as far as I can infer, that term means it's not loading any resources until needed, opposite of this...
    -bind_at_load
                     Sets a bit in the mach header of the resulting binary which tells dyld to bind all symbols                when the binary is loaded, rather than lazily.
    https://developer.apple.com/library/mac/documentation/Darwin/Reference/ManPages/ man1/ld.1.html
    Load resources lazily.
    You should never load a resource file until it is actually needed. Prefetching resource files may seem like a way to save time, but this practice actually slows down your app right away. In addition, if you end up not using the resource, loading it wastes memory for no good purpose.

    And, higher OS versionsare even worse with Bonjour/mDNSResponder, but might see this...

  • Gold standard plug ins or collections for elements 9?

    One more quick question, t  feel like I've already posted too many questions until I know enough to  start contributing back to the community...
    Looking to get some plug ins for ps/premiere elements 9...
    A) Photoshop elements 9:
    1 Anyone know of any GREAT comparisons/ buyers guides pitting similar plug ins against each other (maybe even like collections with each title compared)
    1b) Any opinions on Current/Latest 'Gold Standard' tools (head and shoulders above similar titles - kinda industry/user consensous choise of BEST, beyond individual preference even?)
    2) Are they  any HDR plug ins that work with photoshop elements 9 - if so, is there 1  or 2 'Gold Standard' titles that are heads and shoulders above the rest
    if not for elements are there any standalone programs for HDR?
    2b) Right now (till I build budget back after buying software and plug ins) my camera doesn't shoot RAW, does HDR even work with jpeg sources?
