I have just bought a new iMac and am a photographer, how do I transfer everything from my old iMac to this one??

You simply install it. Ask in the LR forum how to migrate catalogs and al lthat properly.

I must have my computer reimaged. I have Photoshop CS5 and Lightroom 5.7. How do I inform Adobe that I will be reloading these programs to the same computer?

And to directly answer your question, you don’t inform Adobe, you merely deactivate PS, reimage, then reinstall and reactivate PS with the serial number(s), and relicense LR with the serial number(s).
If this computer isn’t yours and you don’t have the serial numbers, yourself, then that could be a problem, although there may be software that can find the serial numbers. On a PC platform, download and run the Belarc Security Advisor and see if it finds the serial numbers you need. It’ll only find the current product serial numbers, not the prior versions that an upgrade might be based on, so then you’ll be stuck.

Which iMac for use with Photoshop CS5 and Lightroom

Any opinions on which iMac is best for use with Photoshop CS5 and Lightroom. Not sure if the 2.7 i5 with 512 graphics card is Plenty of power or if upgrading to the 3.1 i5 or 3.4 i7 is a wiser choice given the price differences. Appreciate the help

So I was reading over your post, and even though this is older and has to do with CS5, I have some information for CS6 that will be relevant to your question now that it is time to upgade the software. In general Photoshop has always been more about RAM than Processing power, though that is important too. Until CS5 it could never quite take advantage of what multi-core processors really had to offer, and even the graphics card didn't really effect much of it outside of certain features and the 3D optio
Now that is no longer true and Adobe can effeciently use all aspects of the computer to give you much better performance.
So much so that I was able to buy a brand New ASUS with the following specs:
Dual Core 2.2GHz Processors
8GB of RAM (4GB original to the machine)
Windows 7 Home Premium 64Bit OS
320GB HDD w/ 5400RPM
This machine not only runs photoshop CS6 and Launches in less than 5 Seconds... it can run Premier and After Effects as well, and this Laptop cost me less than $400 (on sale at Best Buy 2 Weeks Ago. You don't have to buy something this cheap, but isn't it great that you can and still run Master Collection effectively?

Nvidia Quadro 600, GeForce GTX 560 Ti or cheaper for Photoshop CS5 and Lightroom 3?

Hello,
I am a professional photographer and I am setting up a new PC (i7, Windows 7 64bit). But I have some troubles to choose the graphic card.
I use Lightroom and Photoshop CS5 3, no video editing.
Between the Open GL, Open CL, CUDA accelerations etc ... professional graphic cards models and consumer ones I am lost!
The Nvidia GeForce GTX 560 Ti seems more powerful and more versatile but I tell myself that if Nvidia has professional range there must be a reason.
So in Photoshop CS5 and Lightroom 3 what would be the best: GeForce GTX 560 Ti or Nvidia Quadro 600?
http://www.geforce.com/Hardware/GPUs/geforce-gtx-560ti/specifications
http://www.nvidia.com/object/product-quadro-600-us.html
Any reason to get a Quadro 2000?
http://www.nvidia.com/object/product-quadro-2000-us.html
Or the graphic card doesn’t matter much and I should take an entry-level GeForce to enjoy the HDMI and the silence? Which one then?
Does the Quadro 600 manages 10bits display 10bits? And the Geforce?
Any change announced with Photoshop CS6 and Ligthroom4?
The only 3D application I use is Google Earth in 3D mode, does it make any difference?
Thank you for your help.

You say "no video editing"... If that's going to be the case, and you won't use the Mercury engine in the Adobe Premiere Pro package, which needs the nVidia Cuda subsystem, then I recommend you consider the ATI brand over nVidia.
Why?
Because while neither brand's developers (ATI or nVidia) always release perfect drivers, I find ATI display drivers to be of consistently higher quality than that of nVidia releases. What this means to you is generally fewer crashes or quirks. ATI has also traditionally supported older cards into the future better than nVidia - this might matter to you in a few years.
People ask me what video card I would recommend, and right now that would be a VisionTek ATI Radeon HD 6670 1 GB GDDR5 card. I like this particular card because:
I've had 100% success with VisionTek cards in a number of different systems, not only initially but they have all run as long as I have used them, without ever breaking down.
The 6670 model uses very little power (under 70 watts) and as such doesn't stress your computer's power supply, need a separate power connection, nor make a lot of fan noise.
It's not the fastest card made for 3D gaming, but it's inexpensive and excellent for Photoshop. No matter what you choose, you should get a card that scores over 500 on the Passmark GPU benchmark, ideally over 1000: http://www.videocardbenchmark.net/
The ATI Catalyst display driver implementations for the 4670/5670/6670 line of cards have been good and solid.
1 GB of on-card memory seems to be a good size, even for editing a lot of images, and GDDR5 memory provides faster access than DDR3.
You should know that besides using Photoshop heavily, I also develop OpenGL-based software as well, so I have some additional insight into driver implementations.

My old mac screen broke down and I would like to transfer my photos and documents to my new mac. Is it possible to transfer it with the cable without fixing my screen?

My old mac screen broke down and I would like to transfer my photos and documents to my new mac. Is it possible to transfer it with the cable without fixing my old mac screen? Please help!

Sure! If the two Macs have Thunderbolt ports, attach a Thunderbolt cable between them. If they have FireWire, or if one has FireWire and one Thunderbolt, connect a FireWire cable (with a TB adaptor if necessary). Reboot the old Mac holding down the T key. Make sure it's connected to power. You'll now see its system drive appear on the desktop of the other Mac and you can use Migration Assistant to automatically transfer files, or drag them over manually.

Photoshop cs5 and Lightroom 5

I have Photoshop cs5 and have just bought Lightroom 5. My Camera Raw plug-in is up to date to version 6.3. I get a message once I try to edit into Photoshop cs5: This version of Lightroom may require the Photoshop Camera Raw plug-in version 8.3 for full compatibility. I have used the update tool in Photoshop but still I get only version 6.3. Can someone inform me what I need to do to get the plug-in 8.3? Thank you.

And to directly answer your question, you don’t inform Adobe, you merely deactivate PS, reimage, then reinstall and reactivate PS with the serial number(s), and relicense LR with the serial number(s).

How do I transfer data from two computers onto my new mac?

I recently bought a new macbook pro with retina display after owning an iBook G4 and a powermac for 7 years but I now want to transfer the data from both of my computers (which both only have one account) onto my new computer. I'm wondering if it is possible to transfer the data from both of the computers onto my new one and if so how. Another issue is that my ibook had recently broken but the only issue was the ram was not working so I had the data recovered and put on an external hard drive so now what was on my ibook is now on an external hard drive. I really want to know if I can still transfer both computers onto my new one or if I can only transfer one of the computers onto my new one and I have to transfer the other one manually. Any ideas?

Migrating is simple and complicated at the same time, in your case simple to transfer files (e.g. films, pictures, docs...), and difficult for settings and all hidden stuff. My piece of advice is to use iBackup (grapefruit.ch) for system settings, which does not take too much, and simple drag-and-drop from older macs unto the new one. I would use firewire, as Retina does not this port, try to purchase a FW-to-ThB adapter, it may be worth having it. Connect the new mac to the old ones one after another, and restart the old ones in target mode (press T after chime), they will turn intro external drives, and may easily transfer anything.
If you are not familiar with iBackup, perhaps it is better to Migration Assistant, I do hope it works with older Mac OS. Note that, used after settings a new mac, it will create new users for the transfered data. The advantage is, they will transfer files and settings, but perhaps more than you really need.
Ort, as BGreg says, manual transfer of all files, this may prove slower, but you may have full control of all operations.

Compatibility between Photoshop CS4 and Lightroom 5 on a Mac

Hi,
A beginners question:
I am about to buy a Canon EOS 1200D Digital SLR Camera with EF-S 18-55mm f/3.5-5.6 IS II Lens. I am currently trying out Photoshop CC and Lightroom 5. I have Ps CS4 and I am thinking of buying Lr 5 in the future after the trial and I want to work with RAW photographs in the main.
Are there any compatibility issues that I should know about with the software versions I have/might buy and the RAW images taken by this model of camera? I need to have the answer(s) to this question before I buy the camera and the correct software.
For your information, I intend using a late 2013 MacBook Pro with a retina screen and 16 Gig RAM.
Many thanks,
David
(Brighton, UK)

The EOS 1200D was first supported in Camera Raw 8.4 and Lightroom 5.4
Camera Raw plug-in | Supported cameras
Camera Raw 8.4 is only compatible with Photoshop CS6 and newer
Camera Raw-compatible Adobe applications
So you'll be fine with Lightroom 5.4 or later.
However PS CS4 is not compatible with Camera Raw 8.4 and never will be. So you'll either have to upgrade to CS6 or join the Cloud.
Or you can use the free Adobe DNG converter, convert all EOS 1200D Raw files to DNGs then edit the DNGs in CS4

How to transfer iPhone apps and their data to new MacBook Pro?

I just got the new Retina Macbook Pro. Before, I synced my iPhone with my iMac. Now I want to sync my iphone with my new RMBP instead. I transfered my music and applications to the new Mac. My music syncs to my iPhone just fine, however, if I click to check to sync my iPhone applications to this computer then a warning message pops up saying all my existing apps and data will be deleted. I aready clicked transfer purchases to my new Mac, so all my apps are already on the computer.
But how do I get my apps to sync with my new Mac, without deleting all my apps data?

Suddenly Getting Green prints in Photoshop CS5 and Lightroom 2.6

Photoshop CS5 12.0.1 x32, and Lightroom 2.6
Windows XP SP 3
Printer: Epson R1900, Software 6.61 (current)
HP LJ2475W Monitor
I have been running and printing from Photoshop since 5.0. I have had CS5 several months, and probably printed 20 or so pictures (matte, gloss, lustre, from 5x7 to A3). Last weekend, I just wanted to print a quick 5x7 of my wife at my daughter's wedding. The print looks fine in Photoshop, and in the Photoshop print preview, but when it gets to the Epson print preview, the colors are distorted and very green. This is the way it prints also. I get the same results from multiple pictures includeing those I have printed with no issue before, and in Lightroom 2.6. The only thing I can print successfully is a PDF I constructed a few years back in Photoshop with a bar of each color and a black-to-white gradient (I use this to "exercise" the inks when I don't have something to print during a week).
I worked with the technician from Epson last night, and it is not a problem with the printer. Using the WIndows Picture and Fax viewer, I was able to print the same picture (and several others) with no issues what so ever, and with all the correct colors. When printing, I used the same ICC file I was using in Photoshop.
I have rebooted multiple times, I have downloaded the latest printer driver from Epson, along with the lastest ICC files that they supply, all with no results. Again, it prints fine outside of Photoshop CS5 (Lightroom 2.6 has the same issue), but has corrupted colors within Photoshop.. I have no clue what to adjust or change to get it to print correctly again.
I have downloaded and installed the lateset Adobe patches when prompted to do so, as I do with the Micrsoft patches. Other than that, I haven't had any recent downloads. It was working correctly 2 weeks ago, the last time I printed (this is used almost exclusively for Photoshop and Proshow Producer).
Thanks in advance for any suggestions. I don't want to have to be limited to other programs to print my photos.

I think I'm seeing a trend of double (or multiple) color transformations here...
SOMETHING, somewhere, is causing the inability to turn off ALL color management outside of Photoshop, so that one cannot use the "Photoshop Manages Colors" setting without getting multiple transformations.
Has Windows itself perhaps added a color management stage somewhere in the mix?
Has something changed that causes the Color Management: Off setting in the printer drivers to be ineffective, or more complex than just "on" or "off"?
What do we know so far?
With CS5, many people using Epson printers cannot get reasonable print colors unless they use the Printer Manages Colors setting in Photoshop. I don't know what they're choosing in the printer drivers because I don't have an Epson.
I personally have seen evidence of double profiling (magenta looking print) with my HP printer when Photoshop is set to Printer Manages Colors. This is kind of the opposite problem from what people are reporting about Epsons.
The ICM Method setting in my HP drivers has an entry entitled ICM Handled by Host System, which is SEPARATE from ICM Disabled.
Given the above, a person could be forgiven for thinking there are more combinatorial choices than just these two:
Photoshop Manages Colors and "ICM disabled in the printer / drivers"
Printer Manages Colors and "ICM handled by the printer / drivers"
What does the Epson printer driver color management selection look like?

Photoshop CS5 and Lightroom GUI

Does anyone know about plans of redesign the Photoshop CS5 UI?
In an older post Chris Cox said that it's on a feature request list.
Can we take a look on that feature request list?
Best regards
R.

I think Lightroom is already a Photoshop Lite - hopefully photoshop can keep its pro features and customizable workspaces so we can work as we see fit.
I think as away to bring in lightroom users Adobe added the TAT tool and changed the adjustment windows to a panel. Not good changes in my opinion.
I prefer the extra features and capabilities offered by bridge/photoshop over lightroom. Each program has its use.

Colormanagment between Photoshop CS5 and Lightroom 5, Adobe RGB

Hello,
In Photoshop CS5 are the Colours, Brightness diffrent to Lightroom 5 as you can see in this picture:
https://dl.dropboxusercontent.com/u/33568224/Bildschirmfoto%202014-10-21%20um%2023.45.16.p ng
My settings in the colormanagment in PS is Adobe RGB and Europa pre-press 3. But even when i switch to other options the picture isn't changing. I guess there is the Problem, it seems that it don't react on my adjustments:
here are my settings
https://dl.dropboxusercontent.com/u/33568224/Bildschirmfoto%202014-10-21%20um%2023.54.40.p ng

https://dl.dropboxusercontent.com/u/33568224/Bildschirmfoto%202014-10-21%20um%2023.55.17.p ng

Thank you very much
