How to preserve nested layers for versions below CS6?

Hi there - I'm trying to save a PSD created with CC2014 for a developer who is using a version of Photoshop older than CS6. The problem is that when he opens the PSD with his version the nested layers are all lost, which makes the document organization really difficult to understand. Is there a way to downsave or export the PSD in such a way that the nested layers are preserved?
Thanks,
Elena

No, because older versions of Photoshop only understood up to 5 layer groups (versus the current 10).
And much older versions didn't understand layer groups at all.
The nested layers themselves are not lost, but the deeper layer groups will be lost in older versions of Photoshop.  (content preserved, not organization)

    how do I manage this.
    Thanks

    Hi Alan
    You should find the sources on http://www.kernel.org/pub/linux/kernel/v2.6/
    Download the version you need, compile and it should be done.
    The latest stable version of the Linux kernel is : www.kernel.org/kdist/finger_banner
    Type the below commands in your shell as root:
    #up2date -i -f kernel (for single processor server)
    or
    #up2date -i -f kernel-smp (for dual processor server)
    Check to see all files exits in the "/boot" directory that "/etc/lilo.conf" is pointing to... followed by:
    #lilo -v -v
    ...to install the boot loader, the "-v" option increases verborsity.
    Look carefully for any errors before rebooting.
    #shutdown -r now
    Above is a shortcut of the steps to do the update. If you need a more extensive howto, then visit the Forum.
    NOTE:
    "lilo -R <kernel label>" sets default command line for next reboot.
    see "man lilo" for information on one time boot to a particular kernel.
    The lilo -R command will make it reboot only once to the new kernel. If for some reason, server does not automatically reboot... reseting it will automatically boot to the old kernel. If it comes back up fine then you can edit the "/etc/lilo.conf" and set "default=" the new kernel label.

  • How to deal with BRS for the below scenario?

    Hi,
    I would like to know the solution for the below scenario for BRS:
    I have a customer who was maintaining their accounts with Tally software for their previous Financial Year. This year they have shifted to SAP B1 2005B. They have issued few cheques for their vendors in the month of march 2008 which has been realised in the month of April 2008. As per Tally, the closing balance of their bank is 8 Lakh but as per the bank statement, their closing balance is 23 Lakhs. In SAP, the opening Balance for the bank is considered as 23 Lakhs. Now there are 15 Lakh worth cheques which were not realised for the month of March 2008.
    Example:
    abc a/c - 3Lakh
    def a/c - 5lakh
    xyz a/c - 7 lakh
    How do i reconcile for this scenario and what procedures do i follow in SAP?
    Thanks and Regards,
    Kaushal

    Hi Kamlesh,
    Thanks for your response.
    Actually, In the "Process External Bank Statement" window, i see that there are few entries which is for the previous year and which has not been reconciled. I have never worked practically on BRS and hence, i am scared to make any changes in the clients database without being confident on what i am doing. I need to reconcile for one of their Bank a/c for the month of April '08. I have the copy of the statements for the month ending 31st Mar 08 and 30th Apr 08. The closing balances are as below:
    31/03/08 - 2300000.00
    30/04/08 - 3100000.00
    Now my OB for Bank a/c for April '08 in SAP is 2300000.00 Dr.
    When i go to External Bank Reconciliation - Selection Criteria Screen (Manual Reconciliation), here are the detail that i enter:
    Last Balance: INR -7,000,000.00000 (Grayed out by the system)
    Ending Balance: INR -3,100,000.00000 (Entered by me)
    End Date: 30/04/08 (Entered by me)
    "Reconciliation Bank Statement" Screen opens up and shows the below balances in the screen:
    Cleared Book Balance: INR -7,000,000.00000
    Statement Ending Balance: INR -3,100,000.00000
    Difference: INR 3,800,000.00000
    As per the Bank statement, i have found all the transactions listed out here for the month of Apr '08 but, i also found that the open transactions for the previous month from April '08 have been lying in "Process External Bank Statement" window.
    Could you please help me solve my issue as to what needs to be done or could you also get me some links from where i can get few documents for processing External Bank Reconciliations?
    That will be of a great help for me. I need steps as to what needs to be done first and then the next so that i can arrive at the correct closing balance for the month April '08.
    Thanks in Advance....

  • How to implement  BADI's for the below issue

    Hi All,
    The URL is being populated correctly (without any spaces) to the follow on document (PR/PO) created in R/3 after implementing code corrections in BBP (replacing space by ‘=’ as shown below).
    When sending the PO to supplier portal, the outbound IDOC segment does not get populated properly. The text format ‘=’ is again converted to space in ECC 6.0 which was not the case with 4.5B.
    This is an upgrade issue as the function module used to format text ‘FORMAT_TEXTLINES’ is completely different in ECC 6.0. The entire code of this function module in 4.5B has been commented in ECC 6.0 and new code has been implemented which splits the text and inserts spaces while formatting as shown below.
    This issue can be resolved by implementing a customer exit or a BADI which gets called after standard SAP populates the IDOC. It requires implementing custom code to remove the unwanted spaces inserted by standard SAP for text id F07. Hence after SAP completes its processing to populate the IDOC, the text would be processed further to remove unwanted spaces before actually sending the IDOC out from SAP R/3.
    Thus this upgrade issue resolution requires R/3 development
    1.     BADI Definition:  ME_MMPUR_EINM, Method: PROCESS_TEXT
    This option is preferable.
    2.     User exit: EXIT_SAPLEINM_002
    I need your help on how to write this code in the form of BADI's.where we write and how to implement. ASAP

    When I opened my CS6 version it won't read any of the files I created with the trail version.
    How can I convert these files when my trail has expired?

    I used the Creative Cloud Trail. I'm guessing that my IT department ordered the wrong version.
    Error message reads:
    Cannot open "file" because it was saved with a newer version of Adobe InDesign CC (10.1)

  • Where can I find Layers for Dreamweaber?  CS6 doesn't seem to have them.

    I tried Command-Clicking (did nothing), and looked under Window-Objects (there is no Objects option).  Any help would be appreciated.

    "Layers" - absolutely positioned containers - have not been featured in DW since about CS3. What version are you using?
    Using absolute positioning for page layout is generally regarded not only as an impossibly antique approach, but also as one that is unsuitable for use on the web as a layout tool. In the age of mobile queries, and countless screen sizes that require responsive page development, absolute positioning is just unworkable.
    Why do you need to use absolute positioning. Perhaps if you explain what you want and show us your page's code, we can help you with a more contemporary technique.

  • How to set Keyboard shortcuts for Flash Pro CS6?

    I have started to use Flash Pro CS6, but my keyboard shortcuts such as F6 to insert a new Keyframe didn't work..I soon found that you could create your own Keyboard Shortcut list within the Flash application, and I am trying to enter F6 for a new Keyframe, but it only lets me enter one letter/number at a time and deletes the other one. I have made sure that F6 isn't in use. It now isn't, any help would be appreciated.
    Thanks.

    if no shortcut works, try resetting your flash pro preferences:
    Hold down Shift+Ctrl+Alt (Win) or Shift+Command+Option (Mac) when starting flash pro.

  • HOW MANY SSDs ARE OPTIMUM FOR USE WITH CS6, AND WHAT SIZE?

    I HAVE A NEW HPE h8-1241, 16GB RAM, 2TB HD, NVIDIA GE FORCE WITH CUDA.  ADOBE RECOMMEND SSDs, BUT IS INEXPLICIT AS TO SIZE AND NUMBER.  WHAT HAVE YOU FOUND TO BE BEST?
    CARL

    What I'd do with them, assuming they're modern drives (e.g., with Sandforce or Indilinx controllers inside that do wear-leveling) is to set them up as a RAID 0 array, then install Windows on the array and run everything off the one big drive C:.  That's what I do with my 4 drive array. 
    I also have spinning drives in my system and after a lot of testing I found that because the SSD array offers near-zero latency as well as gargantuan throughput, it's best to run everything from it - Windows system, swap file, Photoshop application, Photoshop image files, Photoshop scratch. 
    This seems to go against the advice you find all over to use a separate volume for the Photoshop swap file but SSD simply changes the rules.  Now with a RAID array you will have your maximum throughput and all your free space available at once for anything that needs it, and THAT is precisely what speeds your entire computing experience up.
    Plus, if you find the space you've allocated restrictive in the future, you could add drives to your array in the future.  At that point you could either restore a system image onto the larger array and expand the partition, or reinstall everything to take advantage of the additional space.  Or you could stretch yourself a bit and add more drives now, to make your system more future-proof.  Systems always run best if you don't fill up all the space available (i.e., have a lot of free space).  You never know when Photoshop is going to create a 200 GB scratch file (I've seen it happen)!
    Some motherboards have the ability to build RAID arrays using on-board SATA connectors, and indeed some people do that.  The Intel ICH series of controllers in motherboard chipsets can deliver impressive performance.  However, because my motherboard only offers SATA2 (3 gigabits/sec) connectors, I chose (after some research) a HighPoint 2720SGL PCIe RAID controller, because it's fast and (more importantly) it's rock solid reliable.  I'm not sorry I chose that part.
    Not long ago it was ridiculous to think of building a system around a multiple SSD array, but the prices have fallen so far - even in the past months - that it's practical.
    Just now I looked:  You can buy an OCZ Vertex 4  256GB drive for $185.99 at Amazon.com.  That's one of the fastest drives I'm aware of now, and needs the least special care.  You just plug it in and use it.  A 512 GB array would be $372, and a 1TB array would be $744.  Give them a few months more and the prices will probably be well under 50 cents a gigabyte.
