How to fix an object in one layer to an object in another layer?

I have tried to find a soloution to this in the forum, but perhaps my english not being native prevents me from using the correct search terms - so here it is for you to solve
Layer one: background with some rocks
Layer two: a person standing in front of green screen.
The person in layer two is "placed" on a rock
Now, in layer one the camera is slowly turning left to right.
I want the person in layer two to still stand on the rock, even though the rock is "moving"
I have solved it by manually moving the person frame by frame so his position on the rock is the same in every frame, but this is very hard work, and also very hard to do well.
Question:; Is there a way to make PP understand that the person in layer two should be in the same position related to the rock, even if the rock is moving?
Using PP CC and have access to CC
Thank you in advance - hope you understand the question!

This is called tracking, and this is the job for a compositing application, e.g. for After Effects, rather than a non-linear editor.
In After Effects you can track objects with legacy point tracker or with Mocha, which is a separate application included with After Effects.
See this help section on point tracking and this tutorial on planar tracking in Mocha.

How can i take photoshop off one computer and put it on another

How can I take photoshop off one couputer and put it on another?

Hi Beth, welcome to the discussions!
Might be a good idea to also post over in the iPhoto forum if you haven't tried this yet as this is a common topic on their boards.
You may be able to get your iPhoto library back by rebuilding it. I've done it, but's it's been a long time, so don't want to mislead you on anything. The guys over in the iPhoto forum are real experts and should have some fixes for you.

I have an extensive aperture library on my computer's hard drive and I want to break it up into separate smaller libraries on external hard drives. How do I take projects from one library and add them to another one?

I have an extensive aperture library on my computer's hard drive and I want to break it up into separate smaller libraries on external hard drives. How do I take projects from one library and add them to another one?

Coastal,
Frank gave you the exact answer to your question.
However, I would like to ask if you are indeed asking the right question. Do you really want different libraries? The implications are that you have to "switch" libraries to see what's in the others, and so that your searches don't work across all of your pictures? If so, then you asked the right question. If not, you may be more interested in relocating your masters to multiple hard drives so your library gets smaller, instead of breaking up the library.

Is it possible to clone an object from one image and paste it on another image?

Is it possible to clone an object from one image and paste it on another image in Aperture?

As Frank said,
but Aperture has a nice clone tool - the drawback is, that it only works within one image.
What I sometimes do - as a workaroud, when I want to use the clone brush, is to combine the image I want to clone from and the image I want to clone into, into one single image by printing them together to pdf as jpeg. Then I can clone from the second to the first, for example, to be able to add an fairy to a flower: Picking up the head of the fairy in the right image and brushing it into the left one. Occasionally I prefer the Aperture brush to the Photoshop lasso.

How do I select a color range like in Photoshop OR copy/move a layer into the mask of another layer?

Hi there,
I'm trialling Photoshop Elements and wanting to use a black and white (grey scale) layer that I've made as a mask in another layer and don't know how to do it in Elements. In Photoshop, I'd do this (there maybe a better way in PS to do it, but I haven't discovered it yet)...
Click the layer i've created that I intend to use as a mask
Select All
Copy
select layer that I want the mask to be applied to
click the Add Layer Mask button (at the bottom of the Layers window)
click the mask icon so it is highlighted (and the image isn't)
switch to Channels view
highlith the Layer Mask beneath the R,G,B layers and make it visible
Paste
make it invisible again
switch back to layers.
This works and retains the full range of transparency for semi transparency and soft edges of the mask etc.
Alternatively, I can select a Color Range, but that doesn't seem to be available in PS Elements.
So, how do I achieve the same result in PS Elements?
Thanks for your help
Jonno

Perfect! Thanks very much R_Kelly. That does exactly what I was hoping to do.
Cheers

A layer disappears whenever I change another layer

Hello wise Photoshop helpers!
One of my layers continues to disappear whenever I change another layer in my file, no matter what I do to the other layers.
If I try to erase something on another layer the one disappears.
I also cannot locate where this illusive layer is because it never goes away when I hit the Eye to make my layers disappear or appear. It only disappears when I change something on the doc
(i.e. type, paint, order of layers, etc.)
When I save and restart, the layer is back but if I try to continue editing, it goes away again.
I need to get this done but it's very difficult without all of may layers being visible so I feel as if I'm working in the dark. :/ Please help!
Thank you!
~Kelly

Thank you so much for responding!
I have three adjustment layers that have a little chain next to them on the layers panel that i assume would mean they are linked. To what though, i am not quite sure.
When I say "disapear" I mean it disapears from view on the actual image. I cannot find where this layer is located on the layers panel. When I make all my layers not visible with the visibility being turned off, It still remains, and there are no layers visible on the layers panel but I can see it on the image itself.
Then if I edit the doc in anyway other than visibility, then the layer disapears from view on the actual image.
Also, once I save and restart Photoshop, it always comes back. I could continue working without the layer but then I will have to continue to restart photoshop to see how it looks all together with the disapearing layer. lol
Thank you so much for any help you can provide!

Detecting if layer is a duplicate of another layer

Is there a way to say if a given layer is a duplicate of another?

If you are trying to find a rogue duplicate layer that is lurking in a project, you would need to scan all the layer properties of your source layer. Then compare those against the same properties on every other layer in the project. A very time intensive process, unless you have some common key values to search for first, like frame size, duration or name. You could narrow down the overall pot of content to compare first if you did that.

How to fix terminal: login(4720,0x7fff7aa09300) malloc: *** error for object 0x7fcb92e07120: pointer being freed was not allocated *** set a breakpoint in malloc_error_break to debug

When i try to open the Terminal I get this error. How can I fix it?

Please read this whole message before doing anything.
This procedure is a diagnostic test. It’s unlikely to solve your problem. Don’t be disappointed when you find that nothing has changed after you complete it.
The purpose of the test is to determine whether the problem is caused by third-party software that loads automatically at startup or login, by a peripheral device, by a font conflict, or by corruption of the file system or of certain system caches.
Disconnect all wired peripherals except those needed for the test, and remove all aftermarket expansion cards, if applicable. Start up in safe mode and log in to the account with the problem. You must hold down the shift key twice: once when you turn on the computer, and again when you log in.
Note: If FileVault is enabled in OS X 10.9 or earlier, or if a firmware password is set, or if the startup volume is a software RAID, you can’t do this. Ask for further instructions.
Safe mode is much slower to start up and run than normal, with limited graphics performance, and some things won’t work at all, including sound output and Wi-Fi on certain models. The next normal startup may also be somewhat slow.
The login screen appears even if you usually login automatically. You must know your login password in order to log in. If you’ve forgotten the password, you will need to reset it before you begin.
Test while in safe mode. Same problem?
After testing, restart as usual (not in safe mode) and verify that you still have the problem. Post the results of the test.

How to make text links on one layer appear differently than on another layer?

I have text links in some layers that I want to appear as white bold font and text links in other layers that I want to appear as black or blue unbold. I think this might be with CSS but I can't figure it out.

It doesn't go in there at all. Style rules should go in a style block in the head of the page like this:
<style type="text/css">
#Layer5 a {
color: #FFF;
font-weight: bold;
</style>
Even better, though, is to put all your style rules in an external style sheet, because this automatically applies the rules to every page in your site that the style sheet is attached to.

How do i Pate frames from one movie to the center of another? please help?!

what i am trying to do is, put a flash frame by frame movie into my flash web site. So i go to the frame by frame movie and hit Edit- Time line - Select all frames. i then hit Edit- Time line - Copy frames. i switch over to my web site, Create a new layer select the layer and hit Edit - Time line - Paste Frames. and the frames i copied are pasted into order and all my symbols are brought into my library. The problem is than when it is pasted its pasted in the upper left hand corner of the page on top of all my other stuff when i select the the frames of the frame by frame movie and move them to the center of the stage. It seems to work fine but when i test my movie the first frame will be fine and than some stuff goes back to the original pasted spot and some stuff will stay where i moved it to. my question is. How do you paste the frame by frame movie to the center of the stage so it does not have to be moved at all?
or else how do i move all frames and objects to where i want them and not just the first frame?

when you copy and paste frames, object positions will be maintained from the copied to the pasted frames.
if you want to edit multiple frames simultaneously, click edit multiple frames (an icon in the timeline panel just below frame 22, if you're using normal sized frames).

How to make a selection in one photo and move it to another photo

I have always used Photoshop Elements, from 7 up to 12. I just bought Photoshop CC. I am totally confused over it. There's not photo Bin, that is where I use to drag from the open photo down to the one I wanted the selection in. I tried doing it
by making the pictures smaller and dragging them down to the bottom, but then things got messed up and every time I opened another photo to use it open on top of the previous one. To me this is important as this is what I have done
in Elements all the time. I can learn the other stuff about Photoshop later, but this one thing is important to me to be able to figure out. I make pictures for people who have lost their pets or for birthdays and use a lot of digital scrapping stuff in
them. It's always been easy to do so, but now I am totally in a daze over how to do it. Always wanted Photoshop, but I only have 30 days to decided if I like it and if I can't figure this one thing out I will have to return the program. Can someone
point me in the right direction for some tutorials on how to do this one thing?

Oh, and I'm not sure what you mean Load Files into Stack. ??????
In the menu Edit there is an item Scripts and there is an Item Load …
If you want to rescale, rotate, … parts of your composition you should work with Smart Objects.
So see if Photoshop > Preferences > General > Palce or Drag Raster Images as Smart Objects is checked and then use File > Place to put the elements into your layered file.
Whenever you need to adjust one select it in the Layers Panel and invoke Edit > Free Transform (cmd-T).
The advantages of Smart Objects are numerous:
• multiple instances of a SO in a containing document that update simultaneously on saving an edited SO (please note that for a SO to maintain a connection to the external file one needs to use File > Place Linked instead of File > Place Embedded )
• the possibility of placing vector content as Vector Smart Objects (though this will output as pixels)
• non-destructive application of Filters
• non-destructive application of transformation, warp, puppet warp (not all of these are available for Vector SO, but by converting such a one to a regular SO they become applicable)
• combination of elements of different color spaces
• the ability to Replace Contents of SO (for example when faking as-of-yet non-existent products by mapping packaging design elements onto images of a blank container and the design is likely to change)
• Stack Modes for certain combinations of photographic images

How to make a movie clip invisible depending on a value in another layer?

I am trying to make an "achievements" page for my game, where if the user has a high score greater than 100, then the achievement can be unlocked. I tried using a code like this, but it didn't seem to work!
function Check();
if(endscreen_mc.highscore_txt > 100)
medals.roachLock.visible = false;
else if(endscreen_mc.highscore_txt < 100)
medals.roachLock.visible = true;
else if(endscreen_mc.visible == 100)
medals.roachLock.visible = true;
The high score value is saved inside a shared object. What's wrong with my code, and what can I do to fix it?

I tried doing this, but it's still not working..
function Check():void
if(Number(endscreen_mc.highscore_txt.text) > 100)
medals_mc.roachLock.visible = false;
medals_mc.medal_mc.visible = true;
else if(Number(endscreen_mc.highscore_txt.text) <= 100)
    medals.roachLock.visible = true;
This is what's inside my endscreen layer
function showresults():void
          Rchannel.stop();
   // display current score
   endscreen_mc.scoreR_txt.text = String(score);
   // calculate, display and save (if necessary) a new highscore
   var so:SharedObject = SharedObject.getLocal("alltimeHighScore");
   if (!so.data.score || score > so.data.score)
       endscreen_mc.highscore_txt.text = String(score);
       so.data.score = score;
       so.flush();
             Check();
   else
       endscreen_mc.highscore_txt.text = String(so.data.score);
   if(so.data.score==score)
                    endscreen_mc.score_txt.text = String(score);
                    endscreen_mc.highscore_txt.text = String(score);

How to copy a black and white layer to the mask of another layer.....

Earlier I asked, "How?"
Got a reply, but the solution didn't work in PSE 10.
After trial and error, I figured it out.
When dealing with abstract art or even hair, it is too time consuming to make a
mask pixel by pixel.
Load the image you want to mask into a new layer and convert it to black and white. You might need to
adjust contrast/brightness to maximize the effect..
Using the Magic Wand tool, click on the WHITE area of the image.
Click Edit/Copy.
Click on the layer you want the mask copied to.
Next, click on "Add new layer mask" button on the bottom of the layers panel.
Your mask should appear and is now ready for a touching up!.

What’s the correct way to proceed?
Joke?
In Photoshop there are often more ways than one to achieve a task and none of them need be considered »wrong« as long as the result fits the intention, so »the correct way« seems to be problematic terminology.
Anyway, one can use a Layer set to Blend Mode Color and paint on that with whatever colors.
Or one can use Solid Color Layers set to Blend Mode Color.
Or Hue/Saturation Layers …
To edit contrast if necessary Curves or Levels Adjustment Layers can be employed.
You could also have googled »photoshop colorize black and white« …

How to auto populate data from one list in SharePoint 2007 into another list based on a key value?

Hi,
As a part of new requirement in my project I am supposd to work on SharePoint 2007. I have one List (BCExtract - Main list) with all data related to an Application (like ID, name, app manager RTO etc).
I have created another list which has form to be filled by a user (with details about his/her applications). My requirement is that when the user enters AIT ID then the page should refresh (probably after hitting enter) and other details like Application
name, RTO etc which is present in another list gets auto populated depending on the AIT ID (unique column) entered so reduce the burden on the user.
Please suggest me how this can be done. I do not have permission for obtaining SharePoint Designer and I do not know JQuery. Infopath is ok but if this can be done through SharePoint 2007 alone then it would be great.
Thanks....

Hello,
You can either use jquery/jaavscript or infopath form to achieve this. There is no default way to do this.
I would suggest jquery because you can put script in newform/editfor.aspx page using content editor webpart. Refer this link for jquery:
To get value from list:

http://www.robertkuzma.com/2010/08/read-list-items-using-sharepoint-web-services-and-jquery/
To set value in column:

http://spservices.codeplex.com/discussions/468729
If you use infopath form, then you need to create two data connection to get data from both lists. Later you can set value in fields based on selection using rule. This can be possible without code.
