How do I edit RAW photos and save as jpeg?

HI! I have some RAW photos that I want to edit and save as jpeg. Will the edits compromise the file and how do I then save these edited files as jpegs and will that compromise the files? THANKS!

What do you mean by “Will my files be compromised“?
When you edit a photo with iPhoto you’re Original file is preserved exactly as it is, there are no changes made to it whatever.
will I be able to make a readable disc?
Why not? But what do you mean by “readable” Readable by who?
Regards

    What Steps do I take to edit raw files and save for web use, such as Instagram, Facebook, Websites, and emailing?

    When you open a raw file it will open in Adobe camera raw. That is where you can do most of the editing. Then it will be placed inside Photoshop where you can do more if needed.
    Now you can use the save for web dialog to export your image as a png or jpg to use on those sites.

  • I have a custom template.  When I edit it and try to save it asks me to name it and then I end up with an additional custom template.  How do I edit the template and save the changes without creating another template?

    I have a custom template.  When I edit it and try to save it asks me to name it and then I end up with an additional custom template.  How do I edit the template and save the changes without creating another template?

    Hi Atrec,
    If you don't need your old custom template, save your changes with the same template name. It will tell you that this template exists and will ask you Replace? Say yes (if you do want to replace the old with the new!)
    To delete unwanted templates, go to Finder > Menu > Go and press the option key. Your Library will show in the Go Menu. Navigate to Library > Application Support > iWork > Numbers > Templates > My Templates.
    Delete any unwanted template by dragging it to the Trash or click on it then command-delete.
    Having gone to all that trouble to find My Templates folder, right click (or control click) on it and Make Alias. Drag the Alias to any convenient place for a quick way to get back to that folder.

  • How do I edit RAW photos in other applications from iPhoto?

    My RAW photos turn black when I try to edit them in iPhoto.  How do I point them to another application like Adobe Bridge to edit?  Will I be able to retrieve the edited photos back in iPhoto when finished?

    Actually you need to point them to either Adobe Camera RAW, ACR, and or Photoshop. Bridge is only a image File Management program and used to open either ACR or Photoshop to edit images.
    But if you have Photoshop, and Bridge, installed I suggest you Stop using iPhoto and start using the REAL Image Editing program you have installed, Photoshop.
    All iPhoto will do is confuse you and your images. Also stop letting iPhoto import your images. iPhoto stores images inside it program folder structure and makes it hard to get to any one image you want to copy or move. Start copying your images to a Folder of your choosing and use Bridge to view and then send them to Photoshop and or ACR for editing.
    If you want to have a Program import them Photoshop includes Photo Downloader to copy your images from your camera or memory card to a folder of YOUR Choosing.
    iPhoto is for the Amateur. Since you have Photoshop and are working with RAW images you are no amateur.

  • How do I capture a Frame and save as jpeg

    I can't figure out how to just take one frame and export as an image file. Help!

    If the frame has a lot of movement between the fields you may want to deinterlace first. To do this go modify>make freeze frame. This loads the frame into the viewer as a still. You can then apply the deinterlace filter and then export as advised above.

  • How do I edit RAW photos in PSE11?

    When I open a RAW file it does not bring up the adjustment tab?  I'm not sure if I could have deleted this somehow from my workspace?  If so, how do I get it back or install it again?

    I'm new to this on a Mac, so I downloaded this from the Adobe site:

  • Had to update to lightromm 4.4 for raw photos and now I can't open my photos

    I had to update to LR 4.4 to edit raw photos and now I can't open my photos in order to edit them.  Please help

    Canon 70D requires Lightroom 5.2 or later. The raw files from this camera cannot be imported by Lightroom 4.4. You can however download the free Adobe DNG Converter version 8.6 and convert these  RAWs to DNG which can be read by Lightroom 4.4.

  • Editing raw photos in CS4 and returning to a specific event in Iphoto '09

    I wish to edit raw photos in CS4. I have set CS4 as my preferred editor in preferences. When I am finished editing in CS4, I wish to to return the edited photo to the same event from which it came. How do I do this without saving the photo to the desktop (or where ever) and then importing to Iphoto and then dragging to the appropriate event. Please be specific.

    I don't use CS4, but I may be able to help. I also shoot in RAW and use iPhoto and I use NX2 as my external editor. Here's how I do what you're asking about.
    (1) In iPhoto->Preferences: select send RAW to external editor.
    (2) In iPhoto->Preferences: select Capture NX2 as external editor.
    (3) Import all RAW photos into iPhoto.
    (4) Double click on a photo to send it to NX2. (iPhoto sends a link to the original RAW file in this step.)
    (5) Make any desired edits in NX2.
    (6) in NX2 select "save". This overwites the original RAW file in iPhoto's library.
    (7) in NX2 select "save as JPEG". Navigate to the iPhoto "modified" directory and overwrite the existing JPEG (The one that iPhoto made when it initially processed your RAW file). You should always get and overwrite warning at this point. It means your in the right place!
    All done. After this iPhoto automatically updates the corresponding thumbnail to match. At this point, you modified RAW file and it corresponding JPEG are both stored in iPhoto. I can't think of any reason why this wouldn't also work with CS4.
    If at any point you'd like to go back to the RAW file and edit it some more simply select "reprocess raw" or "revert to original" in iPhoto.
    In order to be able to navigate into the iPhoto library you first need to make an alias to it by right click and "create alias". Then just place this alias anywhere you like. Browse here in Step 7.
    This solution is not for everyone. If you mess up and save your JPEG in the wrong place you may get unexpected results from iPhoto because it's library is not supposed to be messed with by users. But if you are careful you will be fine. It all depends on how comfortable you are with computers. The choice and risk is up to you. I just wanted to make sure you knew a solution existed.

  • How do I edit my photos in iphoto? I want to straighten photos and remove some of the dead area.

    First off it would be good to learn how to use iPhoto - editing is one of the most basic operations - what version of iPhoto do you have? Have you watched the videos and looked in Help?
    In general you select the photo can click edit - to straighten you use the "Straighten tool" - to remove areas around the photo you use the "crop tool"

  • How can I transfer RAW photos from iphoto to a separate folder. I want to send RAW photos to someone to process.

    Hello I use iphoto as my place of storage of my photos.
    I want to take some of my RAW photos out of iphoto and plac e them in a different folder to " send" to someone who wants to " edit".
    I am not the one who will process the RAW i just want to get the RAW to the person that needs them.  But my RAW are in iphoto
    It seems that if i just drag a RAW picture from iphoto to dektop it does not retain its RAW size.
    please advise
    I just want to be able to send RAW photos that i have in iphoto to someone who will edit them.

    Where are my raw photos and how do I get to them (if anyone knows please explain in very simple terms).
    File -> New Smart Folder
    Photo -> is -> Raw
    will find all your Raws.
    As described above, exporting with the Kind set to Original will get them to the Finder.
    You can set Photoshop (or any image editor) as an external editor in iPhoto. (Preferences -> General -> Edit Photo: Choose from the Drop Down Menu.) This way, when you double click a pic to edit in iPhoto it will open automatically in Photoshop or your Image Editor, and when you save it it's sent back to iPhoto automatically. This is the only way that edits made in another application will be displayed in iPhoto.

  • When I export my photos and save them as a jpeg.  Am I still losing information?

    When I export my photos and save them as a jpeg.  Am I still losing information?  Would I be better of saving them as a TIFF or a PSD?  Also I know DNG is a digital negative, would that be the better format to save all my stuff?

    I apologize if you already thoroughly know all this (I couldn't be sure):
    When you export, you don't change the original (i.e. you never overwrite the original). So, you can export a million times and never lose quality (of the original), regardless of the export formats you choose.
    Of course the quality of the export depends on the chosen format, and if the format is lossy (e.g. jpeg), then export quality also depends on the size & quality settings.
    TIFF is lossless, so quality is essentially equivalent to the raw in Lightroom. It's the preferred format if a really BIG file is OK. Jpeg was invented to reduce file-size as much as possible without being too much inferior, quality-wise - and it does that very well.
    DNG is good for some stuff, but don't export your photos in DNG format unless you know what you are doing and why... Lot's of people like converting their originals to DNG format, but that's a whole different kettle of fish...
    Note, it may very well make sense to export a jpeg as tiff, since exporting a jpeg as jpeg is not as good. - reminder: when you export, you are not overwriting the original, you are making a new copy from the original, by combining it with develop edits if there have been any.

  • In Pages I used to be able to edit a template and "save a version" to update the template. Now i have to rename the template to save the changes. Why is this happening? what happen to "save a version"? its no longer an option under "file".

    In Pages, In the past, I was able to edit a template and "save a version" to update the template. Now i have to rename the template to save the changes. Why is this happening? what happen to "save a version"? its no longer an option under "file". And I can no longer open the actual template, when template is clicked, it automaticaly opens an "untitled" version???

    In your description you say the first document opens as the Title you gave it.
    Templates always open as Untitled so it sounds like you have saved a regular document, perhaps into your templates folder which is possible.
    Since you have already worked on it and it has been previously saved, Lion will now Save for you and Save a Version is available
    The other document does open as Untitled so sounds like a real template and as Peggy has pointed out will not have either Revert nor Save a Version until you Save it and have changed something in it.
    This is a classic example of just how Apple's supposedly "simplification" of the process, is leading to confusion of what has happened. That the conditions and resulting actions from those conditions is so convoluted says it all.
    It all reminds me of the Monty Python Life of Brian sketch with the "simplified" John Cleese instructions to the class, as to if you have a brother in an older dorm whether to hang your hat and bag on the hooks provided. The trouble is Apple does not get the joke, that it is transforming itself into a frequently self contradictory bumbling bureacracy. The price of unchallenged self appointed geniushood.
    The incoherent half baked stumbling juggernaut has reached new triumphs with its edict on enforced Sandboxing on developers when it is unable to follow even its own instructions.

  • How can I remove all photos and directories from iPhoto?

    How can I remove all photos and directories from iPhoto as if it was a brand new install?
    I am new to iPhoto and was unaware of how it works, honestly I still am a little confused as to when pics I am using 1/2 the time, some from iPhoto and some from MyPics.
    Anyhow, I am looking to remove all photos from iPhoto because during the migration of all my photos from PC to MAC, somehow my timeline became messed up and all my photos that have been logged my dates since 1998 are now all messed up.
    Although all my year folders are still in tact, IE 1998-2006, the subfolders and like pics are all intertwined somehow.
    And when I search iPhoto for a given year, photos from 2,4, 8 yrs back show up in 2006.
    Anyhow, I have selected and deleted all photos and folders within iPhoto, and then import the desired photos from MyPics, only to have the photos double up in the library. ( The old ones that should be deleted and the new imports)
    I simply don't get it, they fill the trash and disappear when it's emptied, then reappear when iPhoto re-opens!
    Can someone help????
    I have completely reworked all my photos so that they are all in the correct folders outside of iPhoto, and now I want to import those and only those pics with that file structure.
    IE Structure = YEAR > MONTH > DAY ( or if needed) > DAY/EVENT

    Do you want to remove the existing full sized image files also? If so then just drag the iPhoto Library folder from the Pictures folder to the Trash and empty it. But be warned you'll lose all of your image files.
    You are dragging the files to the iPhoto Trash bin and then using the iPhoto->Empty Trash menu, right?
    In copying your photos to myspace and then back the original capture date may not be retained and then either the created date or modified date will be used by iPhoto. If the files in the current library are the originals from your camera then those have the best chance of retaining the correct Captured Date. You can check that out by dragging the Originals folder from your iPhoto Library folder to the desktop and then trash what remains of the iPhoto Library folder. Then launch iPhoto and it will ask you to create an new library. Then import that Originals folder and it's subfolders by dragging it into iPhoto's open window. You'll keep the same rolls that was. The roll dates may change but you can check the captured date of the files by using the calendar in the Source pane.
    You won't be able to keep your folder structure within iPhoto. Each outside folder will result in a roll with the same title as the folder. You'll be able to create folders in the Source pane to put albums inside. You can create a smart album to include all photos in a certain date range, line one month.
    Do you Twango?
    TIP: For insurance against the iPhoto database corruption that many users have experienced I recommend making a backup copy of the Library6.iPhoto database file and keep it current. If problems crop up where iPhoto suddenly can't see any photos or thinks there are no photos in the library, replacing the working Library6.iPhoto file with the backup will often get the library back. By keeping it current I mean backup after each import and/or any serious editing or work on books, slideshows, calendars, cards, etc. That insures that if a problem pops up and you do need to replace the database file, you'll retain all those efforts. It doesn't take long to make the backup and it's good insurance.

  • How do I scan a photo and move it to iPhoto?

    I know that I can transfer images from my printer to iPhoto because I've done it before. I guess it's been a long time and I've forgotten how. I've tried placing a photo on my HP Deskjet 4480 glass and pushing scan. I just get multiple print outs and they're really poor quality. The entire sheet is composed of stripes of the original.
    I think this is an easy fix, or fixes. Please help me if you can.
    Thanks,
    Charles
