How/where do I save photos after editing in DxO Pro?

Previously I have used iPhoto for all my photo storage/editing, but have just started using DxO Pro9 as my external editor, btu am confused as to what to do with the newly edited images. Exporting to Application does not work as iphoto cannot read the file. Exporting to original folder (uising the RAW image from the Masters sub-folder to start with) does not seem to show in the previews, back in iPhoto. Best I've managed so far is exporting to desktop, then dragging back into iPhoto, so it is imported again, but this means everything get duplicated doubling the amount of disk space used. Any suggestions, please?

If DxO Pro9 is a photo editor then set it as the external editor and when finished editing save (not save as) to return the image to iPhoto - other wise you have to save to the desktop and reimport giving your multiple copies
And what ever you do stop directly accessing the contents of the iPhoto library - it is not supported and will cause you problems - as an external editor you can choose in the iPhoto preferences to use the RAW - but if you do then you still have to save to the desktop and reimport the edited photo
supported access to your photos is described here - How to Access Files in iPhoto

  • In iphoto, how do i save a photo after editing, in the same or higher file size, it's saves in a lower size

    in iphoto, how do i save a photo after editing, in the same or higher file size, it's saves in a lower size

    It's rather more complicated that this.
    iPhoto is a lossless editor. You don't lose any quality on your shot in iPhoto.
    The file size you see reported is the size of your iPhoto Preview: this is what gets used if you access the data via a media browser. It's a "good-enough-for-most-uses" version of the shot. Email it, upload to websites, use it in Presentation, Word processing file etc
    If you want to set the quality yourself then Export the photo using the File -> Export command.
    You can choose to export to Jpeg, Tiff or png. Tiff is lossless but the file sizes are up to 10 times larger. Jpeg allows you to choose different qualities: High, Medium or low. The difference is the amount of compression involved. High quality means very little compression. It's not unusual for photos exported at this setting to have a larger file size than the original.
    Which setting you choose depends on the use you intend. Further editing, printing then high is important. Sending to Facebook? Well low will do just fine there as they're going to trash the file anyway.
    But the key point: the file size only becomes an issue when you export.

    The beauty of non-destructive editing and snapshots (and, now, publish services) is that, just like negatives of old, your editing never has to be "complete."
    When I say "complete", I dont mean "finished forever", I mean "finished for now".
    I dont know how I do it, but sometimes I end up with AutoSync turned on by accident - last time it happened I hadnt even used AutoSync recently, it turned on by itself, upon restart after a crash I think. Even if my analysis is wrong and its entirely due to operator error - the result is the same: massive inadvertent edits until I detect the condition.
    Also, I make another mistake sometimes (I think its me): when fast typing, I end up normalizing exposure across a whole sh-load of photos... - still havent figured out how I do that since I dont even see a shortcut for that. Sometimes I catch it right away, sometimes not until much later.
    Another frequent mistake made by newbies a lot and seasoned users upon occasion: forgetting when edits will target multiple photos vs. just one.
    I could go on and on... - I love that I can tweak edit settings on a whim, non-destructively, but I dont love it when changes are made inadvertently. Locking does not keep you from editing, just reminds you that it had previously been considered "finished for now" - you can proceed to edit if you wish, or revert to locked state after viewing a detalied list of changes. "Save Metadata" has now become obsolete for me, replaced by "Snapshot & Lock". I dont know about you, but my workflow is:
    - After import, spend a good while editing, until done for now (at which point I snapshot & lock), then optionally at some point in the future:
    - Revisit for re-editing until done for now... If thats just one change: say Exposure +.1, and it was intended, I confirm intention then move on. If I plan to make a few more changes, I unlock until I'm done with it, then relock).
    To each their own, but ChangeManager has become my all-time favorite plugin. - Gives me a very warm and fuzzy feeling knowing that my photos will never be changed inadvertently - only intended changes... - I hope Adobe builds this into Lightroom proper in Lr4, but even if they dont, I'm covered. I never realized how much stress it was trying to be ultra-careful all of the time when using Lightroom, to not make inadvertent changes, until that stress was gone...

  • Users are not able to save pdfs after editing - Adobe XI. They do not use the Win7 explorer preview pane.  If they completely close the Win7 explorer window, they can save - Adobe XI thinks the preview pane is open when it is not.

    Users are not able to save pdfs after editing.  Product is Adobe XI, OS is Win7 64-bit.  When saving, an error pops up that the file cannot be saved, it is in use.  If they save as a different name, it works.  Found several forums/blogs/etc that suggest the problem can be solved by closing the Window7 explorer preview pane.  They don't use the preview pane.  I figured out that if they completely close the explorer window, they can save.  But this means they have to open and close explorer for each file.

    Hi, I would like to chime in and say that this problem has not yet been resolved. It is extremely annoying when all I do is highlight a document in the file explorer and I get 5 errors (evenly spaced out about 20 seconds apart telling me that "Microsoft
    Word Cannot Start (24)". These errors persist even after windows explorer and word are closed. And I don't want to start terminating processes just to make them stop every time.
    I'm a little frustrated with this problem and the other problems I've encountered with MS Office 2013 with file corruption, crashing, 2010 compatibility issues, and the whole host of errors when trying to actually do WORK with Word.
    I do work with long, complex reports in Word because that's the best way available for myself (and my coworkers) to use. However, I sincerely regret upgrading to Office 2013 because of it. I love it, all of its features, and its interface, but I simply cannot
    use it without problems.

  • How do I print panoramic photos on an HP Officejet Pro 8500A Plus printer?

    How do I print panoramic photos on an HP Officejet Pro 8500A Plus printer?

    Thank you for this link! Actually I installed a brand new Windows 8 system in January 2014 and then bought the HP Officejet Pro 8600 Plus printer a few days later. To install this printer I did not use the CD that came with it but already used this link. Just to be sure that I have the latest version I again reinstalled the driver. The result is definitive: You cannot print common photo paper sizes like 4x6,  5x7, 8x10, etc. via a PC using photo SW like HP Photo Creations, MS Gallery, Windows Photo Viewer or any other SW on a HP Officejet Pro 8600 Plus. The reason is most likely that HP marketing decided that an Officejet should not be smart enough for photos, after all the company sells also Photosmarts. Because you cannot create your own formats  you are limited by the driver to what is typically available in an office, in this case:  A4, Letter, legal, Statement, Executive, A4, A5, A6, B54 (JIS), Envelopes #10-DL-C5-C6-A2-Monarch, Japanese Postcard, Japanese Envelope Chou #3-#4, L, 2L, O**bleep**u hagaki, Index Card Letter-A4, Edge-to-Edge Letter-A4, Env. Japanese No 3-No 4 and that's it, not more. Thank you anyway for trying to help me but in this case only the SW developers in HP can help.It would be great to be able to print from time to time a 4x6 photo on this printer like I would do.Copying photos on a USB stick or on a SD card first and then use this way to print on the printer is too cumbersome for me.

  • Save photo after rotating?

    Hey everyone, can someone tell me how to save the photo after I rotated it? It seems like it only rotates the photo in iPhoto, but when you open the original files it doesn't save the rotation. I'm would to rotate photos and save them. Any help? Thanks!

    You'll need to export them from iPhoto to a folder and then import that into FCE. This is because FCE, like it's big brother FCP and even Aperture, want to manage the files themselves and so won't integrate with a consumer level app like iPhoto. This is the only safe way to do this. It's certainly the fastest - and a whole lot faster than trying to locate a single pics in iPhoto Library Folder / Originals/ Rollwhatever - or Modified / Roll Whatever. Remember, that's a very good way to damage your library.

  • Something is wrong with Preview 8.0. Saving half of each photo after edit. Why?

    Preview 8.0 has a big problem. Preview 8.0 is only saving half of each photo--literally. Happens when I open photo to edit , then save. See below. (I am posting this in several places since I can find no community that deals with Preview!)
    I am a long time mac user. Never had a problem before with Preview but apparently with the new update this week, I do. I have been editing photos for printing. Some need minor editing so I often use Preview with no problem.  Now it eats half of each photo!  I tried to use Preview  revert command but that did not work; however, was eventually able to restore. But this is crazy. Have switched to using Photoshop, but that's a pain when I only want to do a fast crop and save before printing. Now cannot trust Preview!
    I saw the posts about Preview crashing, but have not had that happen.
    Anyone else experience anything like this. Happens on my Mac BookPro running 10.10.3.

    I would run the combo updater, It's a quick easy option
    If that fails, do the following steps to reset Your files permissions.
    Boot into the Recovery Drive by holding down Command R when restarting.
    In the menu bar, select Utilities -> Terminal. Type resetpassword in the Terminal and press Enter.
    1 Select your main hard drive.
    2 In the dropdown box under "Select the user account" make sure to select your username.
    3 Select the option: "Reset Home Directory Permissions and ACLs", click the Reset button. It's not obvious when it's complete.
    4 Quit the Reset Password application.
    5 Quit the Terminal.
    At this point you can restart or do other tasks like running Repair Disk in Disk Utility or Reinstall OS X.
    I recommend doing Repair Disk to verify the health of your drive. You can Repair Permissions while booted from your drive, but you can't Repair Disk unless you boot from recover or another drive.
    To Restart: Click Mac OS X Installer in the top left and click Quit Mac OS X Installer. Click the Startup Disk button. Click on your main hard drive and click the Restart button.

  • Exporting photos after editing? - Help please!

    Hi all, first post and all that...
    I've recently started using lightroom 3, but i'm having trouble exporting my edited files.
    I've added the files to lightroom from their original location on my external hard drive, made neccesary adjustments, but i can't seem to then get copies of my edited photos.  I want to send them to someone, but when i go through the exporting process to a file on my desktop, they come out in their original unedited format.  I've worked out how to export to facebook/flickr, but they lose their size and quality this way.
    I'm sure this is a really simple question, so apologies, but if anyone could talk me through how i can duplicate and export my edited photos from lightroom to my desktop, that would be amazing!

    Highlight the images you wish to export.
    Ctrl-Shift-E to open the export dialog.
    Change the top drop-down list to Hard Drive.
    Choose a location for the files in the Export Location section.
    Adjust file naming if necessary.
    In the File Settings section make sure you have the correct output format selected and choose a quality (85 is fine for most things and keeps file size manageable).
    Make file size changes as appropriate in the Image Sizing section.
    If you are downsizing a lot then consider adding some output sharpening.
    Click Export.
    Hopefully that covers most things.

  • Blurry photos after editing

    Why do my photos look blurry after editing in PSE11? They look fine in PSE and when I view the .Jpeg but when I go to upload them onto my blog, they look horrible and blurry.

    I have a similar issue.  I had photoshop elements 8 or 9 and made a brochure last year. Photos came out sharp and clear.  This year i upgraded to PSE11.  I am using some of the same exact photos but when I did a test print, or enlarged it on the screen, it was blurry and pixilated.  I made sure the original photo was at least 1MB, most are 2 or 3 MB.  I played with size and dpi, they looked fine on the screen but yet when I made a layer and placed it in the brochure, it's blurry.  I'ved tried resizing image in PSE11 but that doesn't seem to help and i need help  

  • Cannot save photos after opening (can only do a "Save As")

    Software: Adobe Photoshop CS3
    OS: XP w/SP3
    System: Dell vostro 200, 2.20GHz Duo, 2GB RAM, 160GB HD (mostly free), Intel G33/G31 Express 128.
    ERROR:
    Could not save photo.jpg because the file is locked. Use Properties command in the Windows Explorer to unlock the file.
    Actions took:
    I fully installed all the updates, when unsuccessful, I repaired the installation, when that was unsuccessful, I completely uninstalled and then reinstalled Photoshop. This was also unsuccessful.
    Our photos are on a network share and the user has full access to the folder and files (they are not locked or read only). When I access the photos on a different computer, I can open them, make changes, and then save without any problems. When the affected user does, they get the above error when trying to saveand they have the exact same access as the one that works.

    it might be a network issue, and oopening files on a network isn't supported by adobe except when using version cue. best to copy locally then save back to the local drive and use explorer to update the network copy. windows has lots of built in protections to maintain data integrity when copying to and from a network that photoshop doesn't.
    that said, and if you insist on working on a file residing on the network, make sure other apps which might have access to the file are closed. especially windows explorer and bridge.

  • How do I print 4x6 photos on an HP Officejet Pro 8600 Plus via Windows Photo Viewer or Gallery

    Dear Experts, I've got an HP Officejet Pro 8600 printer with just one paper tray in which I loaded 4x6 photo paper.
    The printer was purchased in January 2014, the latest drivers are installed. Now I would like to print a single 4x6 photo using Windows Photo Viewer or Gallery.I loaded the 4x6 photo paper  into the tray as indicated by the little icon labeled 4x6in, so I suppose I got the HW part right. It's just the SW part which gives me a hard time. The available paper size options in Windows Photo Viewer and Gallerydon't include photo paper sizes, just the standard paper and envelope sizes.Hence I checked in the HP Printer Assistant in "Set Preferences" what kind of paper sizes are available, and there is exactly the same list as proposed by Gallery, missing photo paper sizes. So I guess Gallery just picks the sizes from the driver and ther are no photo paper sizes. This is an issue because I prefer to print from my PC using Win 7 or Win 8 and not from a SD card or a USB stick. Any help is very welcome, thank you in advance!
