Image movement between LR3.3 and CS5

Usually when I Edit In>CS5 from LR3 the .dng file opens in CS5, I do my work, hit Save, and a .psd file is returned to LR3. Lately (I've upgraded to 64bit for both applications, downloaded latest upgrades today) when I Save from CS5 the .psd doesn't come back to LR3.3 - I have to manually import it.
Why aren't these two talking with each other like they always have? What is the fix?
CS5 is in my LR3.3 preferences as the external editor of choice - always has been.
Running iMac with Leopard, OS X 10.5.8.
Thanks!

How can I export images out of LR3.5 and have the file numbers watermarked on them?

Ladies & Gents,
I'm trying to export a large number of images out of LR3.5 and want to show a unique reference number on each one as a watermark, so that customers can easily state which photo they're interested in. I can't find anything on the export settings of the software with the exception of copyright symbols etc, but this just puts the same watermark on each photo and I want to number them individually and make it easy for the customer to identify an image.
I'm guessing there will be a 'plug in' to do this and I don't mind paying for it, I would just rather do everything in LR and not have to then use a second piece of software and re-export all the images for a second time.
One last thing..... I'm thinking of upgrading to LR4 in the near future and so I would like to be able to use any suggestions on that platform as well (if possible)
Many thanks,
Luke

Shared rendering bug between Reader X and Cs5?

Hi All,
This is my first post in this forum.
Recently I found this shared PDF rendering bug
by both Adobe products: Illustrator CS5 and
Adobe Reader X.
Look at the attached images.
The same PDF file opened in Illustrator CS4
or 8 different PDF viewers does not shows
these square clipping boxes around the words
"La Tormenta".
Why Adobe changed the way its products interpret
pdf files?
If you want, you could download the pdf file:

Image Inconsistency between LR2.2 and other apps - even on Desktop

I've calibrated my monitor, and the images look perfect in LR. I export as jpg (sRBG), and when viewed in ACDSee, or even set as Background on the desktop (OS is Vista) the images turn up very saturated. I have to turn down the saturation in LR to get a decent image outside.
Recalibrated just to make sure, but this inconsistency still exists.
Monitor is Dell 2408WFP.
What else do I need to do to get consistency for exported jpgs?

>I understood that Vista is colour-smart,
Uh, no it isn't. Internet explorer is
not managed even on Vista. I believe ACDsee has to be set up to color manage and many other windows apps are not color managed. The one big one that changed with Vista is windows picture viewer. It
finally is color managed. They took their sweet time! As the others said, on such a monitor you have to
use Firefox and the secret setting or Safari to get color management in your browser.
>so why would sRBG images appear oversaturated, especially on a calibrated monitor?
Explained above. No colormanagement is the culprit. Calibration alone does not help you. You need to calibrate
and color manage. If you don't color manage on ANY monitor, even calibrated ones, you will still see a more or less random color.

Settings between Lightroom 4 and CS5 or CS6

I know I must have some setting(s) incorrect because there is a color shift between Lightroom and CS.

Any way to share photos, movies between iMovie, iPhoto, and vice versa?

The question above speaks for itself. Any answers?

By sharing a movie to iPhoto, I mean that if you made a movie in iMovie, could you open it and watch it with iPhoto? Yikes! I meant to say Photo Booth! So sorry, not iPhoto, but Photo Booth. Is it possible to make a movie or take a picture in Photo Booth and then watch and save it in iMovie, and edit it from there? Is it also possible to make a movie in iMovie and watch it in iPhoto (this question is less important than the one before)? One last thing; can you take a picture in iMovie?

How to move between new display and Macbook

If I follow Apple's instructions to turn on my MacBook, plug in the new LED display, then close the lid on the MacBook it goes to sleep in about 20 seconds....as it should, and then I can use the display. But if I unplug the MacBook and use it in another room, then bring it back and plug it in again, when I close the lid it won't sleep, so the new display never comes on.
I'm guessing the only way to move from using the display in the closed-lid mode to using MacBook on battery is to do a full shut down, then unplug everything, and then restart the MacBook. This seems like a lot of extra effort if all I want to do is take the MacBook out of office and work on the sofa for awhile. Is there a better way to do this? Thanks for any help.

It gets much more complicated.....
and a potential bug, if anyone can confirm this, I will put a link to the bug department from this thread.
follow carefully I've put a diagram in as well as its messy here.
1. mouse click the word exposure
2. use the + and - keys, and the exposure value will change correspondingly and on my mac, a pop up gets in the way of the photo and says exposure up/down 0.1 etc
3. use the left and right arrow and the exposure changes but the (annoying) pop up does not
4. use the , and . keys to move the focus to contrast
5. use the + and - keys, and the contrast value will change correspondingly and on my mac, the pop up appears and says contrast up/down 0.1 etc
HOWEVER
6. use the left and right arrows and the exposure (rather than the contrast) changes accordingly.
Victoria, thanks for the tip about the , and . buttons
Is this a bug, that the , and . moves focus if you use the + & = - keys, but does not move the focus for the left and right arrow controls

I have a new iPad Air but I am not able to sync any non-iTunes purchased movies between my Mac and the iPad. My old iPad still syncs correctly.

I have tried all the advice from the forums such as editing the info in iTunes, adding playlist, changing the info categories, ensuring there is adequate iCloud backup space, but to no avail. I suspect the issue is with an iPad setting or with iCloud as this is only a problem for the new iPad and not the old one but cannot see where anything differs from the old iPad settings. Any dieas welcome.

Hi Demo, I am back, so here is my result.
On my PC I signed out of itunes and deleted the software and then downloaded again.
It appears, at this stage to be working OK. It has allowed me to do a restore and backup, fingers crossed xxx.
That is a very good sign.
The happy result is, I have not been arrested and my computer is intact, so far.......

I'm happy to hear this news. Sorry that I couldn't help, but you are quite welcome anyway.

File compatibility between cs3 and cs5

Hi,
What are the compatilibity issues between Photoshop CS3 and CS5? Can they be used together without much (if any) issues?
Thanks.

They can happily coexist on the same system, as long as you've got the disk space. Photoshop has always been like that.
You'll only be able to run one at a time, at any given instant, though.
Regarding file compatibility, I don't how much it's required to open a file in Photoshop CS3, but the newer version does offer a "Maximize Compatibility" preference setting for saving .psd files. On occasion I've opened .psd files in Photoshop CS3 saved by CS5 (using the aforementioned setting) and I haven't seen any issues at all.

Fontproblems and fontcaches in Illustrator CS4 and CS5

Hello all,
I've been having a serious and severe problem using Ilustrator and fonts.
As this is a very complex problem to explain, I'll try to make it easy to understand.
First I'll tell you the specifications and software used:
Imac 27 inch running MAC OS X 10.6.7 with follow software:
Illustrator CS4 + Illustrator CS5, both installed
Fontreserve (running a central server and macs connect through a MAC-client) http://www.extensis.com/en/support/font-reserve.jsp
So we use an external third party fontsoftware to manage and activate our fonts used in Illustrator.
We only have the required system fonts installed on our systems.
We recently ran in a big issue concerning fonts within Illustrator.
I'll try to explain what the problem really is ...
So normally we boot up Illustrator and we activate our fonts in fontreserve.
The fonts get loaded in Illustrator. So that does work like it should.
But the problem begins when we deactivate fonts.
Font reserve does deactivate them and in Illustrator the deactivated fonts are gone or so it seems ...
After a restart, I only start Illustrator. So our client fontreserve stays closed.
I opened the job I worked on before the restart and Illustrator opens the document and loads the fonts.
You read it right, Illustrator does find all the fonts which, before the restart, were deactivated.
Where does he gets those fonts?
So I started to investigate and tried a couple of things.
1) I physically moved the fontreserve-plugin out Illustrator so it will not be loaded on startup.
That didn't fix it because Illustrator still finds the fonts.
2) I physically plugged out the network cable to be sure Illustrator could not contact our fontserver.
Sadly he still did find the fonts.
3) I used "Tweak Freak" to clear my fontcaches. I also searched for "AdobeFnt" to clean out the cache from Adobe itself.
This did not work either.
4) I tried opening the document again but this time in CS5. And guess what? Illustrator CS5 asks for all the fonts that are missing, which is correct because not one font has been activated.
Strangly enough I decided to reopen Illustrator CS4 (Illustrator CS5 still beiing open as well), and suddenly Illustrator CS4 asks for the fonts too?
A minute ago he still found all the fonts and after opening Illustrator CS5, it does not ...
So Adobe what is the connection between Illustrator CS4 and CS5?
And where does Illustrator store its fontcache?
It would be nice to run a script on shutdown te delete all possible fontcaches.
So after spending a couple of hours fixing this problem, it seems that I still don't quite understand where the problem lies.
I'm hoping you can.
As this is an urgent matter, I hope to get an answer or support as soon as possible.
Thanks in advance.

You should be able to see what files Adobe Illustrator has open by using the Activity Monitor.app application.
To do so, open the Activity Monitor application (it's in the /Applications/Utilities/ folder). Locate Adobe Illustrator in the list and then double-click on it. This should open up a new window like shown in the image below:
Switch to the Open Files and Ports tab, and it should list every open file that Illustrator is using.

Using a KVM switch between the Mini and a PC

I've just bought a Mini to try out the whole Mac experience.
I'm having trouble getting a KVM switch to work with the Mac.
I have a Tripp Lite B034-002-R KVM switch to share between the Mini and my WinXP PC. The switch changes over to the other computer when you press NUM LOCK twice within 2 seconds. This is working in the PC (i.e. switching from the PC to the Mac is fine) but is not working in the Mac (i.e. the switch doesn't change from the Mac to the PC).
I have a MS "Natural Keyboard Pro" USB keyboard.
Is the NUM LOCK key somehow disabled or something on the Mac? I'm hoping there's some knob I can turn to get this working.
Thanks for your help,
Tom

I bought an IOGEAR GCS632U KVM switch to move between my Mini and Windows XP Pro PC. The keyboard is an Apple Pro. The switch was perfect for several days, then every attempt at invoking the hot key mode would fail; resetting the switch would not correct the problem. IOGEAR Support had me try another keyboard, which is the current standard Apple wired keyboard (the $30 one); it had the same problem as the Pro keyboard. Also we tried other things, but all failed. Sent the KVM switch to IOGEAR and they sent me a new one. After two days using the new switch, the keyboard malfunctioned; this time it was the backward delete key that failed. Same problem using other Apple keyboard. IOGEAR Support, after going through the same previous routine in which nothing succeeded in correcting the problem, tells me to return the switch and they will send me another. Based on my experience, apparently the GCS632U model has an incompatibility problem with (some?) Apple keyboards. This is confirmed by two posts on other discussion groups sites. Also, IOGEAR Support would almost admit that to be the case. They suggested that I use a generic keyboard, but I refuse to buy one just to use that KVM switch. IOGEAR should post the potential problem on their website as a warning.
Does anyone out there know from experience that a particular IOGEAR model does work with an Apple keyboard? IOGEAR Support says that they will send me a different model if I pay the difference. Or can anyone give me the brand name and model number of any KVM switch known to be compatible with Apple keyboards (particularly one that costs less thatn $75)? A ConnectPro 2-port USB KVM switch will work, according to another discussion group post. Any advice or information will be much appreciated.

Using Lightroom 5.5 and Photoshop CC2014. Images no longer open in Photoshop when using "edit in" command. Photoshop opens but no image when trying to move between LR and PS. Any suggestions?

1. You have allowed Apple to auto-upgrade your Mac
Turn off auto-update here:
Menu > Apple > System Preferences > App Store
2. The Icons on your dock are Aliases not real apps
They point to where the apps really are which is:
For Pages 5.2.2 in your Applications folder
For Pages '09 in your Applications/iWork folder
3. You are alternately opening documents randomly with either version of Pages
Both Pages have the same file extension .pages and there is no certainty as to which version opens them when you double click on a file.
right click on the file and choose which version you want to open it
4. Pages '09 can not open Pages 5 files
Pages 5 can not open Pages '08 files, and will convert and change Pages '09 and Word files.
It will also auto save opened files into its own format.
You can export these back to Pages '09 if you need to:
Menu > File > Export > Pages '09
5. Yes Pages 5.2.2 is a marked downgrade
Pages 5.2.2 has a few improvements but has had over 110 features removed and is buggy.
Sooner or later you will not be able to open a file or have it damaged in some way and it has a complex obscure file format largely incompatible with everything else, so you will not be able to rescue the contents of your file. If Pages or some third party server/eMail don't trash your file, eventually Apple will do it for you as it did when it released Pages 5 last September. I recommend using Pages '09 for the time being whilst you look for viable alternatives, some are here already and some are on the way.

Fonts different between CS3 and CS5 on Win7 system using the same fonts directory

I have several files created in Fireworks CS3 that work fine. Fonts are all installed in the system directory on my Win7 box. This used to be a WinXP Pro box.
I can load a file into Fireworks CS3 without a single issue and the text all looks perfect. The way it should. Close CS3, open CS5 and load the same file and CS5 tells me I have to update my fonts. Why? Same system, same fonts in the same fonts directory. Only thing that's changed is that I'm opening the file(s) in CS5.
The fonts do not look the same in CS5. Am I going to have to redo every Fireworks CS3 file so that it looks correct in CS5? If so, why?
-- Bob
Here's a sample image the way it's supposed to look. The Swift gets hosed. PlazaDUtil is the font. I'd hate to have to redo all my logo files.

Prior to CS4 Fireworks used the Macromedia type engine. From CS4 forward, adobe introduced the adobe type engine to improve text handling/integration between FW AI and PS. As a result moving CS3 files over to cs4 forces FW to update the fonts.

When I set black point on windows, the image switches between blank and full image, why?

when I set black point using windows, the image switches between blank and full image, why?

I set black point with alt button down while I move sllider. When black
dots show, I stop and back off a bit. That's the normal result. Normally a
white screen appears until I release the alt key. In my case, sometimes the
screen goes from white to full image. It's not all the time. I view my
power and ram use as I work and it doesn't spike when this happens. It's
as if the alt key command is not holding. I've used both alt keys with
same results.
Thanks for responding. I hope you have some ideas.

Compatability between CS4 and CS5 Flash?

Hi
I'm working off CS4 and using mainly Premiere Pro. I'm also using Photoshop, Flash, Soundbooth from CS4 and using files from those applications in Premiere Pro. All good so far. My projects have a few layers but really nothing too complicated.
I work with someone who will eventually create the flash elements of our projects. To do this the company ordered further licenses for CS4 but we received CS5 instead.
If she loads CS5 onto her computer and creates Flash files (CS5) that I then use in Premiere Pro CS4, will it be compatible?
Also, if I want to then adjust that CS5 flash file in Flash CS4, will that work, or will I encounter problems?
Should we go with the CS5 or try and get another copy of CS4 for the new computer? (My computer needs to stay CS4)
Thanks

So as far as Premiere is concerned you are importing Quicktime MOV files from Flash?
When you import MOV files into Flash they are frame-by-frame animations taking up frames on the timeline, either on the main stage or in a Movie Clip. There is a limit in Flash in general to the number of frames you can have in a single animation, something like 16000 or 12000 frames. Depending on your fps this could be a relatively short or longer amount of time that the animation will play. I don't think there will be as many issues importing and exporting between Premiere Pro and Flash as there are with Flash CS4 and CS5 itself. TLF is a framework for laying out text (Text Layout Framework) which allows you some functionality of InDesign-style text-box layouts such as multi-columns, tracking and kerning, etc.
