I have a psd file with many layers and text. I want to edit the text. How do I do that?

Hi all!
I recently purchased a book cover from a creative....she charged me one amount for the jpeg file and another amount for the psd file and then there's another cost to edit the text on the back cover. Instead of paying all these fees separately I'm trying to edit the text on my back cover myself.
The problem is I HAVE NO CLUE how to do this....anybody have any help to offer?

In the psd file, on the right side you should see a panel that says Layers. Expand that panel if it is not already by clicking on it.
Scroll down through the list in the layers panel until you find the text (there should be a large T for a thumbnail to show it is text)
Double click on that large T to edit the text. (The text should now be highlighted and the Text tool on the left side of the screen should be selected)
Type away then select any other layer to deselect the text
If you do not see any large T capture your screen with the layers panel open, so we can see what layers are there.

HT1386 I have a new computer with windows 8.1. I want to add the 52 Gb of music now on my old ipod to itunes on the computer. I don't want to wipe out the files on the ipod by syncing to the new computer which has no music files on it yet! How can I do

Apparently I wasn't clear. The music on my ipod is but a subset of all the music on my external hard drives. I want to import only the songs and playlists from my existing ipod into the itunes library on my new computer, which currently has no music or playlists. How can I do this?

Difficulty editing text in iPhoto book project. I add a page layout with text, but can't edit the text box., Difficulty editing text in iPhoto book project. I add a page layout with text, but can't edit the text box.

I'm am having difficulty editing text in the iphoto book project. I have a text box that is pre-populated with text. I can edit the text once, then if I need to change something, it won't let me delete anything, only add to it. Anyone else having this problem?
Thanks!

You should be able to double click in the text box and add or delete text. First make a temporary, backup copy (if you don't already have a backup copy) of the library and try the following:
1 - delete the iPhoto preference file, com.apple.iPhoto.plist, that resides in your
User/Home/Library/ Preferences folder.
2 - delete iPhoto's cache file, Cache.db, that is located in your
User/Home/Library/Caches/com.apple.iPhoto folder.
Click to view full size
3 - launch iPhoto and try again.
NOTE: If you're moved your library from its default location in your Home/Pictures folder you will have to point iPhoto to its new location when you next open iPhoto by holding down the Option key when launching iPhoto. You'll also have to reset the iPhoto's various preferences.
NOTE 2: In Lion and Mountain Lion the Library folder is now invisible. To make it permanently visible enter the following in the Terminal application window: chflags nohidden ~/Library and hit the Enter button - 10.7: Un-hide the User Library folder.
If that doesn't help launch iPhoto with the Option key held down and create a new, test library. Import some photos, create a book and check to see if the same problem persists. Post back with the results.

Import Illustrator File with multiple layers and sublayers as composition retaining all layers and sublayers

I have drawn a country map with multiple layers and sublayers including streets, cities, rail lines, ...
Now I want to create a template for my collegues in After Effects.
For this I want to import the .ai file into After Effects retaining all sublayers and layers in compositions and subcompositions.
When I do that, I get the first couple of layers correctly, the other ones comes in one merged composition.
What can I do, to get all layers each as a layer in After Effects?
Yours, Raphael

Illustrator only imports the first level of layers. If you have groups or paths below you need to release the groups to layers. The layers will then be stacked in order as sub layers. Then you need to move them up.
The steps are to select a layer in the Illustrator layer panel, then without selecting any specific element in the layer click on the menu in the top right corner and select release to layers. All a elements in that layer will be converted to layers. Now select them all and drag them up above the original layer. This will leave the original layer empty and put all elements in new layers.
Here's a tutorial I did a zillion years ago which uses this technique to turn a blend into a morph.

I have updated my firefox with 4.0 and since than firefox blocs every site I go to it so that I have to restart my computer. What is the problem?

I have updated my firefox with 4.0. and since that I have problems. Namely, when I open some site firefox blocks it so I have to restart my computer. I don't have those problems with Explorer. Could U help me with this, because untill now I was very satisfied with firefox and would like to use it in the future.
With kindest regards,
Ljiljana Stevkovic

Due to security vulnerabilities, rolling back to Firefox 4.0.1 is not recommended. Firefox 3.6.18 would be the safer choice.
Here's the process to roll back:
First, I recommend backing up your Firefox settings in case something goes wrong. See [https://support.mozilla.com/en-US/kb/Backing+up+your+information Backing up your information]. (You can copy your entire Firefox profile folder somewhere outside of the Mozilla folder.)
Next, download and save Firefox 3.6 to your desktop for future installation. http://www.mozilla.com/firefox/all-older
Close Firefox 5.
You could install Firefox 3.6 over it (many have reported success) or you could uninstall Firefox first. If you uninstall, do not remove your personal data and settings, just the program.
Unless you have installed an incompatible add-on, Firefox 3.6 should pick up where you left off. If there are serious issues, please post back with details.
Note: I haven't actually tried this myself!

Photoshop saved a PSD file with security permissions, and now I can't access it. Please help!

Using Photoshop CC, I saved a PSD file after several hours of editing. I also exported a TIF file from the PSD. After closing Photoshop, I cannot access either file in any way. I cannot even copy them.
going to properties --> security, I get a message that reads, "You must have Read permissions to view the properties of this object." Click Advanced to continue.
When I click Advanced, it says "Unable to display current owner", and in none of the three tabs available (Permissions, Auditing, or Effective Access) can I click "Continue" and get any further than the message, "You do not have permission to view or edit this object's permission settings".
Please help me. This is highly frustrating, and a bug that is costing me over an hour of my time troubleshooting.
Thank you.
UPDATE:
I rebooted, and the files are... gone. Photoshop CC has no record of the file under "Open Recent".
What just happened? I lost a good 2 hours of work and a unique photograph
UPDATE2
I restarted the project, saved a PSD with Maximize Compatibility selected. Verified this file has appropriate permissions.
When I then go to File --> Save (not "Save as", but "Save"), after progressing to 90% or so, an error message comes up, "Could not save 'O:\[path]\file.PSD' because the file name was not valid."
I click "OK", and then go to the original file and check its permissions. They are now changed to "You must have read permissions".

I have this exact problem too. Windows 8.1 CC 2014 and all of a sudden I get the problems AIJ23 has. Say I have 8 files open, I save the first 3 or four, just with Control-S (saving in PSD format) no problem, then all of a sudden on the next save I get a message saying I don't have permission to save over the file followed by the same problems as above. I use Save As so I don't loose my work but I cannot delete/rename/change permissions of the original file. This only started happening about 2-3 days ago and only happens in Photoshop. I haven't managed to find much about this issue anywhere.

How can I REPLACE original RAW files with JPG's and keep my 'Develop mode' edits?

An image describing my problem:
http://i.imgur.com/hcqMYkv.jpg
(Lightroom 5)
'edits' = Edits made in develop mode.
'CR2' = My RAW image file format.
I have existing CR2's with edits for them saved in Lightroom.
I want to replace the CR2's with JPG's, and do nothing else. I want those JPG's to inherit the CR2's edits, but I DO NOT want the edits to be permanently applied to the image.
If I export the CR2's (which have edits) to JPG's, the edits will be permanently applied to them. I do not want this.
If I export the CR2's to JPG's without the edits, I have no way of getting the edits back and will have to redo the work if I use that photo again.
Any solutions? I've been trying for a while and have no idea how to do this.
Q: Why not keep the CR2's?
A: I am uploading these files to an online host (S3) as my primary storage method and uploading CR2's takes way too long with my internet speeds. Furthermore, online storage costs money.
Q: Why not shoot with JPGs instead of shooting raw?
A: I do my initial edits with the raw files and then archive them as JPG's to save storage space. They won't be raw anymore if I apply future edits, but I still have the option of retouching them from the 'original' state and still have my old edits preserved.

Probably the best thing for you to do is simply use lossy DNG format (e.g. export as, or convert to..): raw data is re-formatted with jpeg compression (full-rez or reduced-rez), but all raw settings apply.
If you insist on trying to have a true jpeg file with (mostly) raw settings, then:
The simplest way I can think of to do it without a script or plugin:
* Reset the raw photo (consider preserving things that don't translate well, like profile-based lens corrections and white balance).
* Export jpeg
* Un-reset the image (e.g. using edit history or pre-reset snapshot).
* Sync settings from raw to jpeg (note: omit settings that don't transfer well, or that were not reset..).
* Optionally: Delete raw
To automate/streamline would require a script or plugin.

PS CS5 stalls when opening file with type layers

Macbook Pro / 10.6.7 / 4GB RAM / 2GHz i7 / CS5 12.0.4.x64. No extra plugins or anything. New system, clean install from last week.
When I open a file (any size/color/dimensions) that has type layers PS with hang for about 25 seconds, then come back just fine. If I clear the font cache (I use FontExplorer X 3) the problem will go away for a brief time (minutes?), then come back. Close and reopen a file, same hang. Close PS, reopen PS, reopen file, same hang.
Files with no font layers are not affected — no hang, no delay, snappy... unless a file with type layers is already open, then there is the same delay.
If a file with type layers is open in PS and hung on open, and I open/double-click it again from the finder I get another hang.
Turing off font preview makes no difference, turning off OpenGL makes no difference.
But, turning a font on or off in FontExporer does clear the problem for a while.
Any thoughts?

It looks like the plug in was the culprit. I have it turned off and haven't had the problem in a while (though I haven't used PS in a bit on text-heavy projects either).
Thanks for the help.

I have a pdf file, and I am trying to edit it? how do I edit it?

I have a pdf file, and I am trying to edit it! How do I do that?

Another option is to open with Illustrator - AI files are basically PDFs anyway. This won't work for security protected PDFs and any embedded images will be at original resolution (so you won't be able to enlarge/edit them and if low-res will stay low-res) and any text blocks can break up into separate words/letters but depending on how much editing you want to do it may be an option. Any vector images, tint blocks or outlined text will be perfect (and editable - the PDF is now an AI file).
Just drag and drop into the Illustrator icon on your dock to open - if you don't have the correct fonts for the file Illustrator will tell you what they are and replace them which can mess up any text so I'd suggest noting the missing fonts and then install those needed and then re-launching Illustrator and open the PDF with correct fonts installed.

HT1212 I have a new iPhone 5c, I have an old iTunes acct. had to reset my password because I can't remember my old password? I guess I tried too many times and now it says it is disabled. How do I fix this?

I have a new IPhone 5c, and an old iTunes acct. I changed my password because I forgot it. I guess I tried it too many times and now my apple iTunes is disabled. How do I fix that?

You might be able to re-enable it via this page : http://appleid.apple.com, then 'reset your password'
You might then need to log out of your account on your phone by tapping on your id in Settings > iTunes & App Store and then log back in so as to 'refresh' the account on it.
If that doesn't fix it then you might need to contact iTunes Support : http://www.apple.com/support/itunes/contact/ - click on Contact iTunes Store Support on the right-hand side of the page

Multiple flat files with Comma delimiter and Pipe Delimiter in the sub folders.

Hi,
I have a directory C:\doc\Outcomes\Health --(This is the main path).
In the path above i have multiple subfolders like
A
B
C
D
Folder A & B have 20 flat files each which are comma separated and pipe delimiter files.
Folder C&D have 20 excel files each.
1) So, In SSIS while looping through the subfolders how do i limit to loop only excel files one time and flat files one time.
2) In folder A&B, how do i loop only Pipe delimiter files (neglecting comma saperated files). I want to loop only pipe delimiter files while using for each loop container.
Thanks

Both are txt files, but the data inside the files is saperated by ',' and '|'. ( comma and pipe)
Thats ok
If delimiters are not consistent you can use this method

HT4623 i have iphone 4 with 4.3.2 version, i want to upgrade the software. but my phone is not getting synchronised on itunes and not getting detected. please help me

i have an iphone 4 with 4.3.2 version, i want to upgrade the software. but my phone is not getting synchronised on itunes and not getting detected. also there is no update software tab under settings.please help me

If your phone isn't being recognized by your computer, you need to follow the steps in this article to resolve that
Also, some basic isolation needs to be done. Does it show up in itunes on any other computers? do you have other cords you can test with to see if it might be the cord? if the phone doesn't show up on any computers, it's likely your phone has a hardware issue
http://support.apple.com/kb/TS1538?viewlocale=en_US is the article to use if you want to concentrate on trying to get a particular computer to recognize your phone
